So where do things go from here? Over the past months I have kept this diary for all of you so that you can follow how I make money online. Indeed the last few weeks have been quiet here due to holiday and personal issues outside of the online world, however things are now back on track!

The next step is to start delving into creating and selling my own product. I have had a few ideas in recent weeks, from simple ebooks to full coded applications. I figure the best way to do this is use a “rent a coder” or “rent a writer” to create anything I need, then sell it. This takes a lot of the work away from me and gives me something to sell or give away free. Read the rest of this entry »

I got fed up. Totally fed up of having to give my email address or even worse BUY software to get new niche ideas. So I created a simple site to generate them for us.

Find it here

Let me know what you think or if you have any others to go into the massive list.

It’s time for another update regarding WaterUtopia.com and the orders / visitors that are coming to the site.

The domain has now been indexed in Google and is awaiting a full crawl and pagerank to be performed for the site. Once this happens I am sure that both visitors and orders will increase. Currently all the orders and visitors I have had are from MSN, which is a sign of great things to come when everything is settled in Google. Read the rest of this entry »

As you know, I turned off the adwords account I had set up for waterutopia.com at the start of this month. Since then the site has been fully indexed in MSN, is almost indexed in Google, and is starting to show up in all the usual places on the net.

What is great to see is that orders are starting to come in via the site via the natural search listings. Not using adwords = more profit which can only be a good thing! I will of course keep you posted and get some stats up here on my return from Portugal.

Just so you all know, I am away in Portugal for a week and will be back on the 20th of June. Until then things may slow down a bit here, it all depends on me getting to a computer out there.

In case any of you were even remotely interested here are my adsense earnings since I started working with the system since last year.

It is worth noting that recently I have diverted my energy to making sites like waterutopia.com and I can only think that this is the reason my adsense earnings stopped going up. I will get back on the case this month and start the climb again. In the meantime, here are the earnings: Read the rest of this entry »

Yeah I know, not strictly SEO stuff but it is yet another service (groan) from Google. They are becoming too diluted and continue to let their search engine fall behind. I use MSN more than Google now! But that’s my opinion. Some info on the product:

Create basic spreadsheets from scratch.
You can start from scratch and do all the basics, including changing the number format, sorting by columns, and adding formulas.

Upload your spreadsheet files.
Upload spreadsheets or worksheets from CSV or XLS format - all your formulas and formatting will come across intact.

Familiar desktop feel makes editing a breeze.
Just click the toolbar buttons to bold, underline, change the font, change the cell background color and more.

Have a look at Google Spreadsheet and see what you think.

Well Waterutopia.com has been online for a couple of weeks now. It has been found by Google (though not fully indexed) and has now been totally eaten by MSN.

I took my time to create and submit a Froogle / Google Base feed as well, though this has yet to bring in any sales. The adwords campaign that I was running did bring in a number of sales though I have now turned it off so that I can really see the impact that the organic listings will have on business within the site.

I have read a number of blogs over the past few weeks by people going on about a fantastic new idea they have had for the best website in the world, but they say they don’t want to talk about it because someone may steal their idea!

I have decided to start a new section here on BV that will essentially give you every idea that I have, almost as it spills out of my head. I will detail them as much as I have thought about them and you can then pinch them if you want. Read the rest of this entry »

Well after a few weeks of neglect I decided that seeing as I have started working hard on the Brighton Vibes blog / diary again, I felt that Netdosh.com could do with a bit of a tidy and update as well.

The site now sports a cleaner new look and compact feel that seems to work far better than the previous set up. As originally intended it still has no adwords and will essentially remain an outlet for all the products and articles that I don’t feel should clutter up the main brighton vibes blog.

Please feel free to check out the new Netdosh.com and let me know what you think. Also, don’t forget to check out the netdosh.com/feeder for the round up of all the happenings in the money making world from all of your blogs!

Over the coming posts I plan to break down each of the tools, tricks, places and things that I use to help make money online, complete projects, develop ideas, research results and everything else that comes into my entire online existance to date.

This post is the start of this mission and I will start it by giving you an overview of a few of the items I currently use to help me online. Some of the items are 100% free, others have a ‘free’ version, and the rest is ‘pay for’ stuff, however I will try to cram as many free items into the coming posts as I can.

It’s time to get some action going again on the Brighton Vibes blog. Recently I have been making a lame post every few days on here. There is a good reason, I have been spending most my time in the forums on the hotter subjects of todays money making madness, however I have put together a collection of post subjects that I will be writing about on here from now on.

The diary, essentially is about to get back up to speed with more posts and coverage from my daily money making life rather than just brain dumping all that information in the forums. Read the rest of this entry »
