DIY dating is the biz... From a webmasters perspective also! I've tried other affilliate programs and non-compare to the income you generate from DIY Dating! I started about 3 years ago with DIY Dating and after spending a lot of time trying to get my sites noticed in Search Engines etc, I soon had a regular income of no less than £1000 a month. I only do this in my spare time now because I do have a full time day job. These days I get a relatively high return for not much effort... of course If i put more effort in I am sure I could generate a lot more income from the DIY Dating system... but I am happy for the time being with a minimum of £1000 a month pocket money I make with them. I am glad I decided to check them out after seeing them advertise this system in a well know Web Designer/Developer Magazine.

Thanks and Thanks again!!

I agree with you DIY is fab and I can also vouch for the fact that you can make good money from this company although I also use some other programs as well and am sitting at £2672.00 income from my affiliates this month so am very happy with the online dating business at the present moment.

Credit Crunch what Credit Crunch? LOL

Nice to hear the advanced members are doing so well £2600 a month I bet we would all like to know how you did that, Any chance you would like to share some advise on improving as I am sure we could all benefit from a little more sharing on here, I use IBP to submit and have done realy well but some tips for improving and direction on promoting would be very helpfull.

Kind Regards

Peter

Can you pm me with the other progs you are using? I would be quite interested?

Cheers

Hi there

No disrespect to anybody but the art of GOOD business is never to give away your secrets. If you read these forums you will see I do help webmasters using the DIY system and the first thing you hear me say is you'd better have a little bit of money to invest in your online business after all that's what it is so you had better adopt a business attitude to it.

I went to the IBP website and boy that made me laugh here is their guarantee

Our guarantee: top 10 rankings or money back

We guarantee that your website will be listed in the top 10 results in the search engine of your choice for a keyword of your choice.

So lets see this company is going to get you in the top 10 ranking for love,romance sex,swinging,date,dating in the top 10 results I say NONSENSE because be rest assured there are more than 10 BIG dating/adult companies out there using better tactics that IBP with bigger budgets that a lot of us and they dominate the market place. I know all about Google and it's sandbox effect and also how it changes it's algorithms to try and not let the big boys dominate. But lets be realistic here say, I am one of the big companies I look at and see why Google knocked me off the top spot in their last update do you not think if I was smart enough I would work ahead of Google and make various versions of what details to combat what Google may or may not do in their next update, this is where analytics comes into things. Of course I would. So to me that guarantee is nonsense as there will be more than 10 sites wanting to use the same keyword as you no matter how many variations you may think of the companies with the big budgets will have got there before you.

Not getting at you Peter or anybody who is a DIY webmaster as I love the DIY system, and I can assure you I hated it when I first started with them but like I have said in some previous posts they have come a long way because they have listened to their webmasters. Yes I am looking forward to my £2672 coming in at the end of the month but to earn this has cost me many hours in front of the computer and about £360/£400 so it's not all profit.

Hi there the answer to your question is em NO I can't or if I am honest I won't because then you are my competition.

It's bad enough having you as my competition using the DIY system never mind the other systems I use. I know you are going to say "well then why do you help DIY webmasters" and the answer to that is simple, the very fact that the DIY webmaster I may help has already found the DIY system and enrolled into it.

I help them then because they have taken the time to find DIY sign up and got going a little bit and truth is that if I did not help them then somebody else would. No two webmasters will do things the same way. So I offer help when I can and as stated I have rules about helping other webmasters which are already somewhere on these forums. But what I don't do is point them in the direction of other systems to compete with not only myself as a webmasters but with DIY as a provider.

Hi there I do understand how unwilling you are to help i pass on information because I do not see others as a threat and have in the past help many people get going with DIY dating i am going through a patch of having a new baby and the time I have to investigate new promotion is a bit slack, I have nothing against you not wanting to share that is you personal choice I was looking for some new ideas to help, With regards IBP I only suggested this program as it has help me achieve top ranking for keywords over the past 3 years and I am still currently sitting at position 3 for (adult sex contacts) that would be 3rd of 3,600,862 which i am very happy with i have noticed that after this other diy daters have started to appear close which has taken hit away but I would prefer them to be there than the BIG BIG boys which have advertising budgets that blow mine out of the water.

The reason for my question was not for where do you go and how do you do it was just for a little guidance as to what system are working for people so i dont wast time hitting banner exchanges link lists and etc, I would rather someone said facebook works well and i can spend some energy on that rather than wasting time with banner exchanges that dont work.. and there are many.

If you feel that is the kind of advise you would be happy to help with then please feel free to help a a man who is feeling the lack of sleep and up all night working.

Here's hoping for some pointers

Peter

p.s No offence takern you are welcome to share or not share that is your choice. Good luck to you and i hope everything works out for you.

If i could employ you I would. Then I could get more sleep got to be worth it.. he he

My Advice - Niche Sites (or at least market Niche Keywords against your site) - Its unlikely you will ever get anywhere near top ranking with something as generic as 'Adult Dating' or 'Sex'

Thats all I'm gonna say - because as BoJangles says - Somethings are best kept secret!

Fair enough. I respect that. It's good business practice at the end of the day.

Thanks Andy i am already ranked page one for adult sex contacts and many more But a good point well made, have decided that rather than ask for help from fellow DIY daters that a good book and a cup of tea will work far better. It appears that everyone rather than pool ideas would rather duke it out shame realy as i bet we are all doing some things the same but others different.

Good luck to everyone.
