Project Outline

Here in a nutshell is what we will be doing.

Step one follow directions, some of you may know better tools, different hosting, cheaper this or that but I have chosen each of this with careful thought.

Set aside or place in account $200

Pick a subject any subject, no not making money on the internet :) but something that you know about or like to do. I don't care if it is pets, activities, health, self help, gardening, automobiles, children, relationships, howto, cooking, basically any large group of subjects that you either like, are drawn to or know something about.

Get a hosting account for only $1 for 30 days.
(yes there are much cheaper hosting accounts out there but this has most of the tools you need and a residual income program built in See Step One!)

Buy a domain name usually less then $10 related to the subject above such as pets your would need my-favorite-pets.com if you need help I will be glad to help with a domain name. Just email me.

We will be installing drupal as a content manager
(yes everyone uses wordpress but I have my reasons which will be explained later See Step One!)

Write or buy 20 articles about the subject you have chosen, writing is much better and allows you to have what is know as unique content on your site. Much better in the eyes of Google and other search engines. If you buy article do not just buy PLR have a ghost writer write them for you (cost $4 - $12 each) or have one of your high school kids help you out and give them a few bucks or a free "Get out of jail for being late pass". Articles written for your new site must be grammatically correct or close, written at a high school reading level, and free of misspelled words, also have a real theme and purpose. Inform your readers about the subject that is why they are there to get information.

Next is to get an adsense id from Google if you don't have one. If you are writing good articles then it is very easy to get an adsense account for your site, but if you are writing or buying junk well then you will not be able to get the id.

Affiliate programs will be the next step which I will walk you through all of the basics of clickbank, paypal, paydotcom and the bigger guys like linkshare and cj

As we go along I will teach you basic SEO linking, directories, reciprocal links, link trades, social bookmarking etc each of these will bump your traffic bit by bit until we have a viable site. Remember this will be on a tight schedule so keep up so we can make our goal of profitability in 90 days.

We will cover article marketing, or Bummarketing as some call it after we get the basic site stabilized and growing.

Project Hope Concept

Internet Income everyone wants it, everyone talks about it, everyone even say they need it.

Well the truth is there is a large group of folks who do need it. That is the low income people who struggle with daily bills, the biggest news as I write this is low income home owners with high risk loans who are losing their home due to the variable rate loans they got last year, you know the one that helped them buy their first home. Have ballooned out of control now the first home is in the middle of reposition proceedings.

I have been a internet marketer for a while and a geek for longer and I know for a fact anyone with a basic education and hard work can earn a residual income off of the internet that would cover a basic house payment. I am willing to put my name on the line to prove it. I will not hide behind being a jerk, or a bum, or a guru. My name is Darin Lawson Hosking and my resume is online. Heck my resume even has my cell phone number on it.

What I am proposing is that with basic concepts of internet marketing, good clean seo practices and a bit of work ANYONE can earn a house payment from residual "Internet Marketing" income.

Some of you will be twisting in the breeze at the moment knowing that I am being so public with this ie using a blogger account, and posting all I know (well most) in such a public place. But I feel it is time to let the cat out of the bag and let the common man in on the prosperity available without costing them $97 for some ebook. Yes I will be using affiliate links to recommend tools etc.. That is the whole idea isn't it? By using affiliate links to recommend tools etc.. we earn our money and the tools providers sell a product. I have started clean accounts on all recommended tools etc.. and used a multilevel type programs when available to allow others to earn as they learn as new folks join in on "Project Hope"

Everything I will be doing will be tracked and placed here to show actual number etc.. I will only hide what has to be, as to protect others and to be within usage guidelines such as adsense numbers, statistics, click through rates etc. You will see actual income learned from adsense by each site, affiliate income earned, clickbank, and paypal totals etc..

I am not talking about making your first million on the net, I am speaking total real world figures of $300 - $500 per moth from 4 or 5 sites and being able to break even within 90 days.

What it will take is a commitment from you to work a bit each day and set aside $200 this will be used to fund the project. I suggest you use a netspend, or royal debit card to put the budget into. That way you can use it as a credit card with most websites and not worry about losing money via identity theft etc.. this will do wonders for your confidence level.

The $200 will place you at the basic level to build your income to $100 per month at about the 90 day mark and any extra you can spend without messing with the food budget will only accelerate your income.
