FEATURED STM THREAD: From BH to WH, $1.2 Million Revenue With Facebook
Facebook is a huge traffic source with an INSANE profit potential, we all know that much. But, we also know they love to BAN for whatever random reason and itâs not that easy to get an account back. Even more so in the case of GreyHat or BlackHat campaigns. Once youâre caught doing something fishy, your account is a toast!
Thatâs why more and more affiliates look into White Hat ways of making money with this mammoth traffic source. Is that even possible? Hell yes, it is and we have a case to prove this to you today.
One of STMâs members, cashy, just posted a thread where he reveals how much he made during the past two months and itâs not shabby at all!!! $1.200.000 in revenue with a pretty healthy ROI.
Cashy used to operate in the Grey/Black Hat zone for quite some time, but like many others, he got tired of the constant account bans and looked for something better. Thatâs how he landed in the WH leadgen business, namely insurance.
Want to know more? What type of insurance? Direct or via affiliate networks? Lead quality issues? What was the profit like? Itâs all in the thread, check it out!
Stay tuned for the next edition of MRKTRS WKLY.
