After 11 years doing this stuff full time and enjoying every minute of it, it's no wonder I have so many little blogs and profiles I discover that I forgot I even created!
My cash flow is still coming and I do try to keep up with oldbuddy.angryhosting.com, but I have been having so much fun spending the money I make that I have less time to update everything.
I found my way back here when I made a comment on another friends blog, so I thought I should at least post enough to keep it alive.
See you all online!

Today's Jackpot
I bought a lifetime upgrade in an advertising website months ago and spent some time yesterday browsing around in the free ebooks they gave me. Most people think these are all junk, but there are some real gems to be found.
The particular ebook that caught my eye was one on how to get top 10 ranking on Google for under $10. At this point, I don't know if that's true and I don't care. I did follow the plan, but it has only been a day and I met my goal of getting new referrals already.
I won't give away what's in the ebook, but if you get an upgraded account with AdsAndCash you can get it too, it was enough to make it worthwhile for me by itself. They also throw in $250 worth of advertising that is actually valuable.

Blog Comments
One of my primary methods is to use the breadcrumb theory as much as I can for passive promoting. Instead of chasing people, I make intelligent comments on other blogs that lead back to my own. If you just leave junk to get a link, it will probably be deleted, but most bloggers support each other if you contribute something of value.
One good place to find blogs to comment on is http://LinkReferral.com and while you are looking you generate more traffic to your own page.
Spending a few minutes a day visiting and reviewing websites can keep you near the top of whatever category you choose.

Friday
YouTube Search
I have been enjoying taking some old podcasts I did years ago and merging them with images to make slide show videos. Even if no one else watches, I do and I like them.
The side benefit is I participate in some forums that don't allow you to post links or personal information, so no matter how much you want to contact or help other posters, you are isolated to the forum itself.
The obvious answer is to get your user name higher in the search results, so they can find you outside the forum, which I did with Google some time ago. Now I am working on getting it higher for a YouTube search and that is MUCH harder.
I do have a few videos on the first page for oldbuddy and of course "oldbuddy" works fine, but most people don't use quotes. I set up a title page that includes my photo so they can recognize me, but now the last one picked images that mean nothing. I'm still working on trying to do it without making in obvious or distracting from the stories.
Keeps me off the streets, right?

Why oldbuddy?
Oldbuddy is a user name I have been choosing for several Forums and Communities online, so I started working on making it easier for people to find me by that name. Some of the Forums I frequent don't allow links or disclosing your personal information, so this is the next level of simplicity. They can Google me!
I bought the domain http://oldbuddy.info and worked it up to #1 on Google for the search term oldbuddy, but I'm not going to sit back and wait for someone to knock me out. I thought I would use this blog to tell about some of the advertising strategies I am trying out, who knows if that might help others find them worth trying too.
I grab .info domain names from GoDaddy for 89 cents a year after I found out you can get them ranked, then I add them to my hosting account free. That's less than 8 cents a month to have one more way people can find me, not a bad deal if you ask me.
I have finally reached the point where earning money is not as much of a priority, since I have that on a roll. Who knows how long it will last, but for the time being I am as happy as a pig in the mud. So if you want to share in some of the ideas that produce my success, subscribe to this blog or my YouTube Channel. In fact why not do both, it's free.
See you all online!
