    Thumbs up I Generated Over $90K w/ The Help Of Indexu

    Hi,

    My name is Jeff Hendrickson and I just wanted to say that I think Indexu is a great product. I also wanted to let you know that it is possible to make money using Indexu because Indexu has helped me generate over $90,000 in revenue since I've been using it.

    Indexu was actually the first script that I ever installed.
    When I first learned how to install a script my eyes widened with the possibilites that scripts like this hold. Forget building websites page by page. With a directory script you basically had the power to produce an unlimited number of web pages in a very short amount of time.

    And as you might know the larger your website is the more chance you have at receiving traffic from search engines. And traffic equals money.

    The problem when I started though was how do you go about getting large amounts of categories and links with unique information. Not information taken directly from dmoz, word for word, (because I knew search engines favored unique content). And then how do you go about getting traffic and building Pagerank after the site was live.

    It literally took me hundreds of hours to figure it all out. And it was literally by trial and error and sometimes shooting in the dark. The more I experimented the more I learned and the more I learned the more money I made.

    But I can now say that Indexu was without a shadow of a doubt a wise investment and is a superior product. And in the right persons hands it is very powerful.

    Here's to your success using it.

    Regards,

    if you left out the last line, your argument might be more credible. it is more like a sales pitch.

    Thanks for the response gariben. Sorry that you thought it was a sales pitch. I'm not affiliated with Indexu whatsoever. I just wanted to share that it is possible to make money using their script. And I thought since I just completed a 70+ page how-to guide on profiting from web directories I should write a positive review here since I go over several things in the eBook exclusive to Indexu users like installing Indexu, SEO and how to make more money with it.

    Anyway, my appologies if you think my arguments aren't credible.

    Regards,

    Jeff

    Default I dont believe that...

    I using indexu software too. But I dont think that it is possible to earn money with web directories. Nobody is realy willing to pay for a listing in a web directory because there are millions of them in the web.
    And the idea of earning enough money with google is just a good marketing idea of google.
    The other side, indexu is a software with a lot of pugs in that can not be a vehicle for earning money.

    I'm not sure what you're doing, but many of us are making money from our directories in one way or another.

    The income you receive from your business is directly related to the amount of time you put into it. You can't just slam up a directory site, add some advertising and expect an income.

    Take a look in the marketing forum and read the chapters of the book I am writing. They'll give you a ton of excellent, general tips on how to earn money. It's not complete yet, but if I remember right I've posted 8 chapters so far.

    I couldn't agree with you more Bruce! Take my Web4URL.com site. Take a look at the Premium and Sponsored listings. I'm not living off of the monthly income it generates, but between Premium / Sponsored listings, Google Ads, etc., I'm pulling in a nice chunk of change each month.

    I'm not sure if 90k is completely realistic, but to say you cant make money with Web Directories is wayyyyy off.

    @gnomcat - Sorry to hear your not making money with your directory. I'd like to say that you can make money with Adsense from your directories because I've been able to make over $25,000 solely from Adsense (view my site to see a screenshot) - And I've made quite a bit from paid listings as well.

    The thing is if you want to be able to do better then you are now you have to be willing to either spend your time learning yourself or pay someone to teach you. If you're not willing to pay for things that will help your business you will never grow. Period.

    @FSGDAG - Great to hear you are making money with your directory! Always good to hear.

    Btw, I'm offering a special 29 page report on how I generated $8,000 from an initial $275 investment. In the report I show you exactly how I built a directory with 68,000 pages, got over 23,000 backlinks and a Pagerank 5 in just 14 months.

    The site that I am going to show you, the one I spent $275 total on now has over 210,000+ backlinks and has an estimated value of over $175,000.

    All this info is documented so you can verify it for yourself.

    I'm offering this report for only $7 for a limited time. So be sure to grab your copy while it's available at this price.

    And you might be surprised to know that the method I show you has nothing to do with dmoz or dmoz extractions.

    Claim your copy now!

    I have to tell you that I'm a HUGE skeptic of your numbers. I hope I'm not coming off as an a$$hole or anything, but you know the old saying, if its too good to be true... etc. etc.

    I tried verifying the info you have on your website. I tried finding your eBay account and wasn't able too. I also looked on eBay's Community area to see what rating you had... Wasn't able to come up with anything on that too... Hence part of my skepticisum.

    Just this statement alone sounds like a "used car salesman" statement. But for only $7.00, I guess it cant hurt. I'll pick up a copy and report back my findings and a review of it. I promise to view it with an open mind


    Again, I hope my statements aren't coming off to be rude or ignorant. I could probably write a 20 page thread on why I'm skeptical on alot of your numbers.

    Hi FSGDAG,

    Btw, do you have a real name? Or do you mind I call you by your screen name?

    I absolutely appreciate your honesty and it helps me to figure out what people think when they read my posts or sales page because I know the figures might sound a bit outrageous. I also wrote the entire thing myself so I'm sure there are things wrong with the sales letter.

    First off my eBay ID is nuvru - http://myworld.ebay.com/nuvru

    I have two blogs www.nuvru.com and also www.jeffhendricksondesign.com so you can see more of who I am.

    I should point out too that the 90k wasn't made in one year. It is earnings I made since 2004 with about 75% of the profits being made in the last 22 months or so.

    Keep in mind I run directories part time, meaning I didn't spend all my time on them because I work mainly as a freelance web designer and SEO, not to mention father.

    Anyway, thank you for the info. I'm happy to hear any suggestions you or anyone has on the sales letter or if you do decide to get the ebook on what you thought of it.

    It has already received a good review from Brucepr here so I think that says a lot.

    Regards,

    Jeff

    Theres people in here that make alot of cash out of directorys but I dont see them trying to sell ebooks for a few dollars to there fellow community members.

    With a recession in full swing and some people falling on hard times why not do the decent thing and post your advice for free rather than selling it for a few dollars.

    To be honest I made high 60k last year part time myself and over 6k last month and I think personally that the free advice given by Bruce here on the forum is excellent.

    But business is business, and no one makes money if you give it all away for free.

    I don't like either.

    BTW, Bruce, is there commission associated with the link on your review:
    https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/gb.php...&ev=cf7d3aa5ce

    Although, I also notice it among your sponsored ads.

    I guess, like you say, there's nothing wrong a little business.

    Still, I don't like the way it comes across and share the concern about its marketing in this community.

    Oh well.

    Yes there is comission. Nothing wrong with making money.

    I'm not arguing the fact that this topic sounds unbelievable to most people, but he does have a product and is selling it. If you don't like it you don't have to buy it, vote with your wallet. I have it, read most of it, and find it useful and I do like the included theme.

    I think earlier in this post I voiced some skeptisum towards it. I've only been able to read the smaller eBook so far ( retrolyte check your PM's ), but the information in that is useful. Its more useful for a newbie or someone unsure on how to start a directory, but none the less it is useful.

    I plan on doing my own review of his eBooks when I'm finished. I'm not as much of a skeptic anymore

    Technically, by definition, we aren't in a recession right now. But that also doesn't mean people aren't hurting! But from what I can tell, other than the SEO and design work he does, THIS is his business. Its how he makes money. I have no problems with someone making money. We aren't socialist!
