$996.

Another record setting day for me yesterday: $996 in profits.

It's actually surreal to me to be making this much money, I didn't really expect to be making this much money with SEO tactics within a year of really getting serious about SEO (which I did late last year.) All of these earnings came from natural search results which were gained through the combination of creating quality content and the use of white hat SEO tactics. All of this money was made through affiliate programs. I have no product of my own.

Do you want to get started on a path similar to mine as soon as possible? My first advice is to get your website(s) up and running NOW. There's no reason to wait. Even if you just put up a title and a few words on the homepage, at least get that site up and running as soon as possible. There's a growing process with the search engines. They trust older sites more. So you are better off getting going as soon as possible.

I recommend using HostMonster.com as your web host and as your registrar. Why? First of all they will let you have your first domain free of charge with your web hosting account. Secondly they will let you add on additional domains for only $10 per year with privacy included. If you go through other domain registration services the privacy inclusion will cost a lot more than $10 per year. With HostMonster.com you can get it all done at once. Thirdly, let you host unlimited domains with your one account. Each additional domain will only cost you the $10 per year registration fee.
