Superclix and Amazon Challenge - Result

So finally here are the results for the Superclix and Amazon Challenge. And surprise surprise I lost. I only made 1,51€ while my opponent made ~30€. He made most of it with just one niche side called anti-gurtwarner.de promoting a cheap Amazon product. I already paid my bet and we will do another challenge from January to end of June. This time counting all online incoming.

And i'm going to crush him this time. I started right after New Year and made a very stream lined approach for some quick cash. I did send ~300 unique visits to one high paying product on superclix in about a week. Didn't get a single sale and was frustrated and changed the product. Checked my account just now and see two open sales. If they get approved I'll write a detailed report how I made it and show it step by step...
This would give me a huge lead in the current challenge. My opponents next niche side www.kuenstlicher-tannenbaum.info most likely won't make any money until next christmas.

Superclix and Amazon Challenge - Update #3

New update about the Superclix and Amazon Challenge. Sadly no income at Superclix for me but I made 24 cents with the Amazon partner program. He didn't make any money this month so I closed the gap a (tiny) bit. Traffic for my blog has increased again but not enough and I'm still not selling enough products. I haven't started with the two new niche sites as I planned to so that's still on the list and should help improve my numbers.

Superclix and Amazon Challenge - Update #2

Second update about the Superclix and Amazon Challenge. The first full month has passed and it's time to check incomes from all participants again. Sadly I have another zero to report while my opponent made 5€ on Superclix. We both made nothing on the Amazon partner program. Traffic for my blog has increased but so far no leads to any of the products. I need to increase my effort and create more content for the blog and start with the two new niche sites.

Starting a new niche site

Because my Amazon affiliate traffic is so low on my existing niche site I'm going to start a couple of more sites and blogs. I brainstormed a couple of niche ideas and will create sites or blogs for them in the next couple of weeks.

I'll document the process in this blog and also show my results.

I researched keywords and traffic via the google adwords tool. The keywords I'm aiming for generate about 400 searches per month. And the websites I found aren't really informative so I think adding content should be fairly easy. I also have a couple of Amazon products which fit this niche.

Next step is to create a webpage and write content about the topic. Afterwards I'm going to generate some backlinks and initial traffic.

This should generate some income for my Superclix and Amazon challenge.

Superclix and Amazon Challenge - Update #1

The first two weeks of the challenge are over. I wrote two posts at my blog about german browsergames. Traffic is still low but increasing. No clicks or even signups so far to Superclix from there. My other niche site advertising products from Amazon I didn't do any work and also had no sale there. So I am still at 0€ for the challenge. My opponent at least made something and is currently in the lead with 1,85€ ... Just two leads ahead of me right now. Nothing I can't make up in the next 6 month.

I plan to advertise the upcoming Amazon Prime Day and hopefully can make some money that way. Traffic to the blog should also increase if I keep up posting at least once a week. I'll also create more content for the Smoothie niche site and have another idea in mind that I'm going to implement soon.
