This evening I spent working on my blogs, since I discovered clicking on a tag/keyword only returned a page with one post on it.  After a few hours of hacking through the php files I finally hit on it, and fixed the category pages while I was at it.  The only problem is that I uncovered a few more things that I need to do!  I also had a scare – all my Logical Media ads disappeared and it was blocking me from logging in!  It turns out that something corrupted my cookies, thank goodness.  I just deleted them and all was well.  Whew!

Earnings for this week (11/9/09 – 11/15/09):
Adsense: 5c !!!

Total Twitter followers:  11079

Genesis Rocket hits:
Hits 4517 Unique 548

I had to laugh at my earnings this week.  However, this was a bit early in the course of business to be taking an entire week off.  I don’t really have enough content nor traffic on my websites yet to carry through.  At least over the weekend I figured out what was wrong with my affiliate links, so my hits did a little bit of improvement.

What was amazing was what Genesis Rocket did during my week off.   Every account that I’ve previously applied Genesis Rocket to gained an average of 100 followers this week.  Remember, I did nothing this week!  So I still think this was a great week, and I’m looking forward to how next week turns out!

I’m taking the week off of Twitter, but my followers continue to grow.  I’ve had to spend some time figuring out CSS and other website issues, not to mention more problems with Twitterfeed.  With the Genesis Rocket course, my accounts have mostly targeted followers, so they seem to automatically find more as time goes by.  This is time well spent; once I pin down the problems with my RSS feeds, I should get reasonable results from my Genesis Rocket marketing.

Found out why Google Adsense wasn’t working.  It was for awhile, but then all I got was public service ads.  It turns out that a file called robots.txt has a switch in it to tell Google not to work with your site.

The problem is, I didn’t have that text file ANYWHERE on my site.

So I created a robots.txt file that says Google isn’t blocked and uploaded it to all my root directories.  Hopefully they get the idea that it is okay for me to advertise for them!

Unfortunately, I figured this out right after their bot crawled and said BLOCKED.  So I will likely have to wait another week for the ads to show up again.  (UPDATE:  Less than 24 hours later and the ads are back.  I think someone is watching out for me!)

Here is the file in case someone else needs it; apparently it is a common issue.

Results for this week (11/2/09 – 11/8/09):

Total Twitter follwers: 9422

Website: $2.70

Genesis Rocket hits:
Hits 3513 Unique 611

My website earnings are down due to a lack of new posts, problems with RSS feeds, and problems with Adsense.  I can’t earn very well if my links don’t go out half of the week!  Some technical trouble at home, too, but that is the beauty of working at home; problems don’t have to completely keep me away from work.  I did get my Genesis Rocket stuff done, so the network was built for another week regardless of the marketing issues.  At least I know the hits are there when I can provide quality content.

That aside – nearly 10,000 followers!  And those are mostly targeted, and not a big pile of zombie accounts.   When the numbers hit, they are gonna hit big.

Followers and hits are double of last week!  Genesis Rocket really works.  It really is all about the numbers:  Get enough hits, and the sales will come. (It helps as I learn to properly monetize, too.)

Genesis Rocket is a fantastic product and method; there are just too many scams going around and people are wary, I guess.  Just look at the websites; there is no comparison.  The Genesis Rocket site gets straight to the point in a well-written article; no flashing headlines, no bright colors, no hyperactive sales pitch.  The scam products are all flashy and seem to look like your typical marketing site spread along five feet of advertising and testimonials and never really get to what the product is really about.  You don’t need promises of never having to work!  You don’t need a set of videos!  You need an easy, step-by-step method that you can implement in a short period of time each day.

Throw out all of the other junk.  Genesis Rocket is it.

Ahh, a glass of cold milk, a handful of Oreos, my laptop, and the baby monitor all snuggled next to me in my bed with lots of fluffy pillows and soft blankets.  Yep, it is time for my workday!  And Fridays are always fun, with Follow Fridays on Twitter.  A nice and relaxing Friday at work for a couple of hours.  Meanwhile, my husband is out shopping for a new car!

I mentioned on Twitter today that I was playing Wii golf with my family this morning, and someone asked how I had the time.  This is definitely the best perk of a home-based business.  I definitely do not want to give this up for a job outside the home!  I see my followers growing exponentially, and my traffic is exploding.  Time is Money, and in this case, Money definitely means more Time.  I am looking forward to many more mornings doing enjoyable activities with my entire family.

I can only work 2 and a half hours a day at best, and I have finally figured out the best way to spend my time.  I will be exclusively marketing Genesis Rocket.  I am getting very good at implementing the plan fairly quickly, and I am hiring my family to help with some of the details, about 30 minutes worth per day.   Two-and-a-half hours should be plenty of time to work on my marketing strategy and still have a little time to work on my blog.  The best fortunes aren’t made by sitting around and doing nothing, after all.  The good news is that this is a lot of fun to do!  Who knows, I may get even better at it and work even less!

Working at home today was a bit interrupted, but at least I can still work a bit while the baby is napping on my shoulder.  I couldn’t do that anywhere else!
