Hi Todd! The articles are just a bunch of filler and “BS” – I just have to be sure and include the keywords that I am targeting. In other words, if I was writing an article for articleranks I would need to include whatever keywords I was targeting. In this case, I would want to include “How to Start a Limo Business” or “How to Open a Limo Service”, etc. (You can have up to 3 links per article.) More than likely I may use the limo business as a primary topic since I need to include those keywords anyway. Hope that helps!

Hi MJ, I found you from Pat Flynn’s blog. I am a newbie. When you use ArticleRanks for back links you mentioned you write articles. Do those articles all have to do with the limo business and thats how you get the links?

Hi MJ,

Great blog, I got here through your guest post on Pat Flynn’s blog. Good luck to you with all of your income streams. I also sell an e-book and was wondering where you got your cover graphic made. You stated that the whole upfront investment for the site was only $88. I am looking for a good, cheap ecover artist.

Thanks and good luck,

Brian

My Limo earnings are gross – after my costs of gas ($600 to $800) and insurance, advertising, etc. I take home about $4,500. Still pretty good for a 25 hour work week!

Hey – just a quick question: when you made your earnings claim in your pitch, was that gross or net? I am putting together an eBook of my own and wanted to try and see what you did.

Thanks!

MJ,

Very interesting! I was going to ask you the same question about creating backlinks, but you answered it so well already.

How long did it take you to write the ebook? I think over time, with more article promotion, your ebook has the potential to bring in a nice chunk of income per month.

I’m hoping to do the same really soon.

Yes, I am pretty sure I will recover the cost of $39. $150 is too rich for my blood. I figure that if I am on page 1 for Google for my ebook’s main search terms, I am bound to sell more ebooks than if I was on page 7. All I need is 1 1/2 ebook sales to cover the cost of my backlinks. I am pretty confident I will cover that.

$39 and $150 a month. So back links require investment!!!

Are you sure that you recover all these costs through internet? I mean do you do cost benefit analysis?
