Million Dollar Experiment

Steve Pavlina (http://www.stevepavlina.com/) is the owner of several businesses. He and his wife are living in the USA a comfortable life and get a six number income every year. These incomes includes 10 different streams from different businesses, most of them are based in the internet. So they are in a very secure financial situation. Steves website is a quite serious page because he is honest. He doesn't write how to become rich or a millionaire, he only wrote down what he did.

One of the most difficult ways to make money is to have a job where you earn a salary! The reason for that is that you use so much time to get your cash which you spend anyway. Steve Pavlina worked only 6 months as an employee until he figured out that this wasn't something for him. After quitting his job he decided to get money from his own business. So he did! After a few years he setted up a system which provided him an income without directly working for the money. Now he has the free time he wished to have.

The $1 Million Dollar Project is an experiment which Steve started to see if he can attract a large sum of money into his life. He want to the intention-manefestation model to make it more fun and challenging. 'This means I’ll allow myself to be guided by intuition as opposed to rigidly planning out every detail'. Added to this he is not going to spend his existing money, he wants to spend only the money which he gets by running that experiment. So his experiment starts with $ 0 and should end with $1000000. Steves intention: In an easy and relaxed manner, in a healthy and positive way, in its own perfect time, for the highest good of all, I intend $1 million to come into my life.

Trackback

Trackback is a really useful product for a blogger who want to request a notification when somebody links to their product. The function of Trackbase is actually really simple: The receiving website gets a ping (a network signal) from the originating website. The recipient publishes a link back to the original site for 'indicating its worthiness'. For this kind of communication both websites have to be 'Trackback enable'. This communication is often used between blogs when anybody is refering to an article from another blog then this user can see that he uses his article. Products which are linked to the original blog are easily to follow and it is a good partnership between the bloggers.

Alborz Fallah 2.

Alborz Fallah started his blog without the attitude of making money. But he was the meaning why not to earn a little bit of money so after a while he earned lots of pounds. He wrote three blogs with the different themes: Cars, outgoing and tech the reason is simple: Because he loved cars, he loved out going and he was a little tech geek. Added to this he is very interested in the comments which people give on his posts even if they are negative.

Moreover, he liked to manage his blog, to write the articles, to discover how Adsense, Web Master Tools and SEO. Everybody is likely to type in the car name plus the date or the other way round. The way big publisher would do it is to type in the car name plus a random name like 'Porsche rules the world' but nobody would type that into Google. When you are going to search a car you will probably type in the name, the model, the date and at the end the review. That is how people find the website from Alborz Fallah. Another criterion is that he writes his post by his own, he didn't use copy and paste that is why his content is so interesting.

He showed this site some friends, they showed it other friends and so was it going. After a while other car blogs where interested in his website because they published the news two days earlier than the other guys because they had to send their text to the editor and back. Al indeed some spelling mistakes and some grammar mistakes but they fixed them after a while. It is pretty cool how they are managing that they are 2 days earlier than the other magazines thereby it is so simple. Al saw the companies putting the news out and one hour later the news were written down at his blog with his own words and his opinion.

After his first meeting with Anthony Crawford the Channel 10 guy, Alborz decided to sell him equity. He made his blog into his own company called Caradvice.com.au Propriety Limited. Now he has different people in different places like Brisbane, Sydney or Melbourne. He has two guys who are working on the blog with the news and three road tester who are testing cars. Al is now one of the road testers. He gets 2 cars a week and he writes the review of the cars.

After using Adsense Al started to ask some advertising agencys if they want to have a partnership. The only problem was they wanted him to do advertising for the companies. But Al said clearly no because it was part of his credibility to write what he is thinking about the product. Alborz' plan for the future is to buy camera stuff for video blogging. He wants to film the cars and put the video on youtube.

Alborz Fallah

Alborz Fallah opened a blog about cars in the year 2006 in Australia. He started to write his own blog about his life when he decided to write a blog about cars. His domain name was Caradvise.com.au. and he wrote a blog with Wordpress. He thought about his hobbies and what he loves to do so he decided to create three websites:

One about outgoing in Brisbane (where he lives), one about cars and because he was a little IT geek he created a website which is called vistatchnician.com. But he was only with his car website successful. Today this blog is the 6th. biggest blog in Australia! Why are they so successful? Because they are the only one who review their cars so they get luxury cars like Lamborghini or Aston Martin. Really interesting is, that they don't have any advertisement.

When Al' opened his blog he started with Google Adsense as well and he got £5000 per month only with Adsense. Then he changed to server hosting and he has four full time and two part time employe. After that he signed to an advertising agency where he gets 10 cents per unique browse that he delivers. Alborz gets like 16000 unique browses a day.
Quite impossible is the fact that he had a full time job besides his blog!

After 7 months running his blog he had a guy, who run Drive Tv, where he was a motoring writer and poducer. This guy was really interested in Al's website because of the style, of the name and of the media which was very interested in his project. At first the visitor traffic didn't increase because of him but they got a lot of new cars so they got more and more media attention. This is why they got invited in lots of car launches and now they are the 6th biggest one in Australia.

You can if you think you can

If you think you are beaten, you are,overcoming2
If you think you dare not, you don’t.
If you like to win, but you think you can’t,
It is almost certain you won’t.

If you think you’ll lose, you’re lost,
For out in the world we find,
Success begins with a fellow’s will.
It’s all in the state of mind.

If you think you are outclassed, you are,
You’ve got to think high to rise,
You’ve got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win a prize.

Life’s battles don’t always go
To the stronger or faster man.
But soon or late the man who wins,
Is the man who thinks he can.
