I would maintain my stance that for the vast majority of ordinary forums vbSeo does not help at all.

There are obvious exceptions, but I see people with no traffic spending all that money and they still get no traffic!

That proves he is very ambitious, a quality, not a defect.
Every marketeer who is smart wants to make more money, not less.

I would be gelous also, if someone would make more money then me, if they offer similar content. That proves they are smarter then me, especially when I started in that business before them... :)

It's interesting to me, I don't get jealous from Shoemoney, if anything, I picture myself making a small fraction of that and being happy. I immediately get to work, it's very motivating: "Just think of making 1% of that, thats all you have to do"

Since I found his site, I've been making more and more money, you just gotta get rid of the laziness and procrastination factor. I would be so friggen rich if I could write 1000 word articles about making money all day long 9-5 but I don't know why I don't just do that, and even Shoemoney doesn't go that far (at least not on his blog). It would bring in so much traffic that would bring my adsnese sky high.

Could you please explain your post, i don't get it.

You are, his forum is dead and there's no AdSense Ads displayed there so stop suggesting otherwise.

AdSense PPC is nice and will bring in some dollars but AdSense referrals are much better IMO and don't require a lot of traffic to work.

it all depends on the niche.

i can easily make $$$ a day with adsense, but i've yet to make a DIME with the referral program.
