Double Your Way To A Million - Page Rank Love

Double Your Way To A Million - Page Rank Love

I've just been updating the Ransom Blog and flicked back here and all of a sudden my Page Rank is 3/10 !!
Now if I can do the same for The Ransom Site I'll be OK.

I have decided to hedge my bets and bought some wholesale merchandise with my stake.
I'll take a pic of everything when it gets here, but between both things I should be up to $320 soon.

For your entertainment;

Double Your Way To A Million ! Goals ?

Double Your Way To A Million ! Goals ?

Well, I must admit I've spent a lot of Christmas and the New Year explaining to various family members about my new idea.

I'll let you all know now as I'm only a week from going live.

My next idea is basically setting up a website that allows people to submit their poor customer service or product stories. If you're a regular reader, you know about the iBook incident...Very poor service.

Well, what The Ransom Site © will be is a place where people can go to submit these stories and vent. But the best part ??? I will choose the best story or experience per month and " Ransom Off " This item on eBay.

Basically, I will promote it like crazy, have a professional do an animated auction geared to get people watching and have a reserve set.
The reserve will cover costs and the purchase of a new item for the person whoose story it is. Anything extra will go to this cause and the upkeep of the site.

Why would people pay me for these crappy consumer goods ? Well the front page of my site allows people to advertise, a bit like a pixel site.
They will buy not only the right to dispose of the item as they see fit (which could be VERY interesting !!) but they also get a large designated area on my homepage.
Still doesn't sound like a good deal ? Well, I will guarantee a certain amount of veiws in the first year, there will be a total of 3 direct links to their website and it will be there for 10 years.

They will also have the opportunity to change the link and/or picture 12 times a year, have a page feature on The Ransom Blog at least once and have the opportunity to win back their Entire purchase price*.

And for those who want something for nothing.... Everyone who hops onto my Newsletter list, gets a chance to win either a $5,000 computer or Gaming system or $5,000 in cash.

Where is this site ? you ask..... Here; The Ransom Site

It is not completely finished yet, but it is getting there.
Did I also mention there will be a forum and a free membership site with tons of free stuff for web entreprenuers.

Phew !
Now you all know whats going on, I'll get back to it.

Oh, and my DYWTAM goal for this year ?
To Get To Step 22 $10,000 - $20,000
Ambitious I know, but once it is said, I'll work hard to get there :)

Bye Now,
Rachel.

PS; If you'd like a free ad leading to anything, just get free pixels from my site. I am working hard to make it a high page rank, so It could definately help you. For those who do paid blogs, a higher page rank can make you eligible for more valuable articles.
If you don't know how to find your page rank, just download Googles firefox with toolbar :)

Double Your Way To A Million ! New Venture Almost Done

Double Your Way To A Million ! New Venture Almost Done

Well, happy new year everyone :)
I have sold a few more things over Christmas, but instead of putting them on my total, that will be part of the advertising for my next project (For the purists, I would now have $201...)

My next project is coming along very nicely, I have gotten my website and forum set up for free thanks to open source software and I'm about to launch in a week, so until then.....

"Will You Pay The Ransom ?"

Double Your Way To A Million - Christmas Post

Double Your Way To A Million - Christmas Post

Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays everyone !!!
I know this post will say Dec 25th but it is actually boxing day down here in NZ.

Just wanted to remind everyone that holidays are a goldmine for early doublers !
All those after Christmas sales with frenzied people. Instead of heading for the bargains, check out what they drop in their wake :D

Continuing with the advice for newbies, I'd like to throw out some suggestions for when you get to $5-$10.
This time of the year in the Southern Hemisphere there are many more garage sales and lots can be bought from them and re-sold on auction sites.
New Zealand is lucky to have a thriving auction site called Trademe so with research, this time of year can be lucrative.

But what do you look for ?
Well, I'd say to stick with what you know and always do your research.
Some examples from last Xmas (my experiences !)

* Paid $2 for a 1975 Star Wars Projector and slides, made $123
* Paid $1 for 5 Robert Kiyosaki books, sold for $60
* Paid $2 for Pumkin Patch and Beatrix Potter Baby Clothes and made $32
* Paid $6 for My Little Ponies with Accessories made $76 (There was a rare one in this lot...)
* Paid $0.40 for 3 Glo Friends made $63
* Paid $5 for a big box of Hot Wheels made $62
* Paid $7 for Barbies & Barbie horse stable made $40

That was on ONE WEEKEND !!
I kept great records and was very proud of this haul.

I've also written a few articles for the article banks on what to sell at auction, you can read them here if you'd like.

Good Luck everyone !

Rachel.

PS; Just found another Doubler !!

Double Your Way To A Million - Help For Newbies

Double Your Way To A Million - Help For Newbies

Hi Guys....
I was just doing my weekly rounds of the "Doublers" and I noticed a lot of people languish at the lower levels.

I personally found the lower levels to be the hardest ones to get past due to what seemed like an impossible task... Making money from nothing.

Heres a few tips that may or may not help.

1. If you haven't found any money these are great places and times to look.
- Early moring in a mall carpark after late night shopping
- Morning outside night clubs & pubs after big nights (happily, drunken people drop lots of cash !"
- Recreation grounds after a sporting match or function.
- Monday morning after a busy weekend or public holiday.
- Inside stores. It's amazing how many people drop money in the shops and don't pick it up !!

* My first money ($2.70) was found by my money sniffing bullmastiff on a recreation ground after a sporting event.

* I also found a brass elephant from Thailand on the ground which brought me $5 !

2. There is a ton of free stuff to be had after garage sale day. Take an after lunch cruise around - you can ride your bike if you don't want to pay for petrol and just call someone to collect what you find....

3. Check out your local trading paper. in New Zealand we have one called the Buy Sell Exchange.
It's great ! You can get anything for free from horse manure to TVs and old cars.

Just use your imagination and money comes flying at you !!

Good Luck !

Rachel.

I've also sold some playstation books, 2 more CD-ROMs and some other eBooks so my total is now (after fees) $160 !!!!!!

That's right people... I've reached the next step !

Blogging to the Bank

Hi All !

Well, I have had another Fudge e-book sell, so after fees ect my total is now;
$125

I thought I had lost my Digital camera for a moment so I wasn't able to put the records on eBay last night.
Thankfully it was only the usb cable and I have a printer with a card reader, so crisis averted !!

Hopefully someone will want some excellent records.
I also got another 50 records for $1 so we'll see what is in those ones !

Later,
Rachel.


I'd (still) love to know about others who are doing this !

BTW, right now it is pretty cheap so get in quick !!
Rachel.
