I think someone is punishing me for trying to better myself by making a quick decision. I got an email from USProbateLeads.com a few minutes ago saying that I was getting a refund for my purchase of Morris County Probate Leads because someone had bought the Exclusivity rights to Morris County. This does not make me happy at all, as now I have to figure out another way to get the leads. I’m going to look at USLeadLists.com now, but …

30DC – Day 8 – Getting Traffic
I’m already up to day 8! This is kinda fun if I do tell you the truth. I love this internet marketing stuff. Today we dealt with getting traffic to our websites. For me this has been a daily grind, even getting visitors to this blog. It has taken me over a year to get a steady flow of about 45 visitors a day. There are many ways to get people to come visit your site, but it comes down …
30DC – Day 6 – WordPress
WordPress was the theme of day 6. This is the second time where they are using a service/software to help you out. First it was Market Samurai which I found very helpful and might consider purchasing it when the 45 day trial is up, but we’ll see. This time the good people at 30 day challenge recommend using WordPress Direct. WordPress Direct is a service that makes it “easy” for beginners to setup a wordpress site and manage all the …
30DC – Day 5 – Content
This is probably one of the most important items when it comes to ranking well in google and other search engines. Content is King as they say. One important point I’d like to mention about content and SEO…the content must be unique. Duplicate content, which means another site has the same exact article, will either hurt your page ranking or it won’t count that content. How much it hurts, nobody knows. So you might be asking…”how do you get this …
30DC – Day 4 – Monitization
Day 4 was mainly about making money, but not in the way an investor is looking to do it. They focus on selling affiliate products through amazon, clickbank and a few other sites. This could be a great source of added income in the future for me, but at this point the focus of my efforts is to get leads so I can by some houses! There are some pretty good lessons to be learned from this day but none …
30DC – Day 3 – Google Rankings
If you want to do well with internet marketing your website has to show up on one of the first few pages of Google. Where your site appears is called your Google Rank. It’s not the page you appear on it’s your ranking. The higher the page rank number the better. In the third day of the 30 day challenge we went over how Google figures out which websites appear on the top few pages for a particular search …
30DC – Day 1
Last night I started my thirty day challenge! I got through all the preseason modules yesterday afternoon. The preseason consists of introducing you to the tools (google analytics, google reader, twitter, facebook, firefox, youtube, Market Samurai, etc..) in order to get you setup and ready to start the challenge. Most of the tools are free forever while some like market samurai are free for 30+ days. None of the tools are necessary to go through the thirty days, they just …
Did my offer get accepted?
Got a reply from my realtor about my offer of 230k to 268 Malapardis Rd. They rejected the offer but came back and said 320k cash could get it done. That is about 25k less then the current asking price, but that is still to high for me. I’m gonna see if they will come down more, I beleive the house can go for 425k to 450k all fixed up to an owner occupant. My realtor seems to be able …
