I did a lot of link building and Tweeting today. Let’s see what tomorrow brings.

Well after annoucning my challenge and starting to build on my battle plan I have made $0.00. Sad I know, but it’s only the first day. What I am impressed with is the traffic that I sparked. I have new subscribers and a big increase in web traffic. Although much of that traffic does not come from search engines. I think if I’m going beat this thing I am going to have to get a lot of search engine traffic. So that’s my plan today. I am going to link build like crazy. Wish me luck!
Here are my results from yesterday December, 1 2008

What next?
So I was reading TwiTip.com (one of Darren Rowse’s Blogs) and he was reviewing a site called TweetBeep.com. Which If I could explain it, I would say it’s like Google Alerts for Twitter.
I started a new blog to test adsense called ArrestedDevelopmentBlog.com which is a blog about the show Arrested Development and the movie updates. In order to start gaining traffic and readers to this site I decided to sign up for TweetBeep and get emails sent to me whenever someone mentions “Arrested Development” or “Bluth” in a tweet. About every other day I get about 20+ twitterers that post tweets about these subjects. So I follow every one of them and now I can give updates about Arrested Development and share quotes with those followers.
It seems to be working out well so far, the site has only been up for about 4 days now and I’m already getting retweets and some traffic from Twitter. So my advice is, if you have a niche and use twitter, use TweetBeep to find follwers faster!
