But I'll tell you what. I'm doing what works.



The sites I've been building for the past few months are producing results. Big

results

my sites, whether they're mini sites or big sites, work. And they bring in a

huge income every week from Google Adsense, Search feed, and affiliate programs.

Yes I should.

Not just because I've been criticized, which is never nice, but because I still

believe that the key to long term success is running on-topic content which is

unique to your own web site.

I don't believe the sites I've built over the past few months are going to keep

producing an income for years, where the original content sites I've got will

keep working for years.

But I'm making hay while the sun shines and you should too.

Here's how I'm doing it:

Many of the sites that people were talking about were created with Traffic

Equalizer and heavily modified with templates, and by changing things with

search and replace, to add individuality. Just one of these sites makes more

every week than I used to earn working full time in my old newspaper job.

(Interestingly this site now gets more traffic from the new Yahoo search engine

than it does from Google, where just a few months ago it was nearly all from

Google).

I hardly write anything on these sites, just an article on the index pages of

each folder/sub directory.

In case you don't know, Traffic Equalizer in essence, an automated directory

builder taking search engine results from your keyword list and building pages

around them. Lots of big name marketers are using it to make a lot of money.

I run Google Adsense on the pages, and also put at least one affiliate program

on a page. Very often it will be an ebook sold through Clickbank.

On some sites I put a number of Search feed links on the pages

but I'm a bit worried about using

Search feed and Adsense together so I don't do it often, but Search feed still

send me a check for a $1000 plus each month - which is a nice little side

income.

My main concern with Traffic Equalizer has always been that someone else

building a page on the same search term could have an almost identical page to

mine. Search engines don't like this.

But the good news is that Traffic Equalizer has just been improved. A few weeks

ago Jeff Alderson, the programmer, asked me if I had any ideas on how to make it

better, and I suggested he try and find a way of getting the site content from

more sources and then randomizing the output. This would make it less of a

chance that two users would build identical pages. Well he's a fast worker and

the new improved version came out a couple of days ago, and though I haven't had

a chance to try it yet, I'm sure it's going to work. At least short term to mid

term

the bad news is that I'm not certain of the long term viability of the sites.

They do well for a few months, but if you can't continue getting high quality

links to them they tend to drop down the rankings. Also I'm sure that Google

won't want the search results to be totally clogged with sites built with

Traffic Equalizer, and will eventually change their algorithms to make the pages

rank a lot lower than they currently do. If they did this by targeting pages

with lots of outbound links but few inbound links it would be damaging to the TE

pages.

Having said that, these sites DOES work And Google allow their Adsense Ads to be

run on them?

Some people don't like the idea of building writes using Traffic Equalizer

because it somehow seems wrong to them. They don't like the "quality" of the

sites it produces. But the search engines LOVE the sites. Many of the pages they

produce rank very high, and unlike the quite short lived fad of building

"smart pages" they don't do anything against the search engines rules. They don't

redirect, they don't mislead people. They just build simple directories.

I'm not going to name anyone, but some REALLY famous people in the internet

marketing world are doing very well with TE. These people consistently make a

huge income year after year by doing what works at the moment. In other words

they use the tools which bring them an income.
