Using your own plugin have you made any sites that have/make some money? The plugin looks great.

Technically, yes, but I haven't promoted them at all so there's no incoming links to speak of. I've been too busy working on the plugin itself. Hopefully in January I'll start working on backlinks and such. That gives the sites some time to age.

The very first autoblog I started is a little over 3 months old. The SE traffic with no promotion is



The vast majority of the traffic is from long tail keywords.

I'm not very experienced monetizing mainstream but I'll get back to that site someday. I'm willing to work with anyone that wants to try breaking into mainstream too.

I'm currently working on modules for adult video sites so you can make an automated porn tube in minutes.

The only thing I have tried on my few pathetic attempts at mainstream has been Adsense. I don't mind telling you, after only one year, Google already owes me three cents.

I am going to grab your plugin after Xmas and try some new ideas.

One day you must tell me your secret, that is 3c more than I made from AdSense in well over a year!

My theory (and this is just IMHO, not "scientifically proven") is that the problem is that Google use "relevant advertising". I find this does not work. For example, I got no clicks using AdSense on a site about dogs. Switching to sponsors selling dog related stuff, got no sales. But since switching to my own products I have sold several spell books, books on UFOs, books on ESP, and even a few copies of "Mistress Of Planet Dominatrix" on the dog site!

I'm guessing that this is because, if you go to a site on a particular subject it is because you are interested in that subject, and if you are interested in the subject you will have already bought most of what you need, or at least already know suppliers, so are not interested in adverts of that sort. But if you are shown something new, you might be tempted.
