Welcome To Friends, Business, and Info

If you're seeing this page, you're here by invitation. You've either been invited directly by me, Will MacBride, the site owner, or been referred by another member of this group.

Who We Are

We're a group of friends and friend of friends working together to profit from internet traffic, make contacts, and exchange vlauable information, while simultaneously helping larger businesses increase thier traffic and sales. Let's face it, times are tough, and everybody from large corporations all the way down to broke bums stumbling into the public library would like to use that humming electronic box that's now a usual feature of any 21st century indoor environment to generate some good old cash flow for themselves and those they care about. And Believe me, even that bum cares about somebody and may have something valuable to share, even though he thinks nobody cares about him.

I've figured out how toput all this together with a minimum of hassle and a maximum of benefit for all. You don't have to be geeky or even like computers that much in order to participate. And each person you get to join will increase the amount of fun, knowledge, and money that can flow in. Really, when you hear how beautifully simple this is you'll wonder why you never thought of it yourself. The important thing to keep in mind is that this is a win-win situation for all. So I hope you're psyched that you've been invited - this may be the best thing that's ever happened to you on the internet.

The way this site works comes from the recent realization I've had that businesses, publishers, and even just ordinary users want more than simply "traffic" to their websites or whatever presence they have on the internet. They want PARTICIPATION. In terms of strictly commercial marketing this means that visitors click through and actually consider buying something rather than merely show up. In terms of information it means that people actually read and consider what somebody has to say, and leave a comment if possible, rather than simply glance. And of course these two areas combine and mutually reinforce each other. If we all help each other commercially, our ability to use the info we share increases.

This is at the moment an invitation only site and project. Its based on the idea of friendship and trust combined with monetary gain. Its based on win-win philosophies of both business efforts and information/communication. It's in the informal beginning stages and the whole point is for this thing to change and evolve.

Don't imagine, however, that this is some huge "commitment." The great thing about is that you can participate as much or as little as you would like to. You'll see however, that in quite direct ways, the more you participate, the more gains - personally, informationally, and financially - you will experience.


How It Works



1. You join the group by responding to an email I've sent you and then your name gets added to the list. The only prerequisite for joining the group is that you have some information to share, something you'd like us all to consider buying, or something that you're promoting (i.e. an affiliate). The urls of whatever you're sharing gets entered as part of your group info or profile.

2. The easiest way to join and start making money is to sign up for one of the many sites where you get paid when somebody views, clicks ads on, or buys something promoted in your website or article. Examples include your own personal website selling your own products, a website where you are selling an affiliate's products and/or have adsense ads, article network sites like ehow, Associated Content, sites where you get paid for your opinions like eopinions.com, and so on. If, however you only seeking to share information, that's fine too. But you're encouraged to have some kind of income generating activity going on because, well, why not?

3. Once your name and the web addresses for whatever you're promoting are entered into the list, the list is shared with the other members of the group. (note: this will either be by private email or posted here on the blog.)

4. It needs to be clearly understood by each member that this is all about participation.

5. Now the fun begins: We all agree to visit each others sites and participate as actively as possible in whatever that site is doing. If it's a blog we'll leave a comment, if it's a web business we will look over the products, and if there are ads and affiliate links, we'll click on them CHA-CHING (sound of cash register)!

6. This latter is the automatic money maker that will generate cash flow for everybody involved. This is "high grade" traffic. Not people you have no connection with you who happen to stumble on your site or web presence. Those poeple may or may not even give what you're offering a second glance, much less click, comment, or buy anything. These will be people who've agreed to really up your site's action, and may even be people you know. There's not too much pressure to buy anything, but there certainly is the expectation that we will click, consider, and comment.

7. Each member will invite friends of theirs to join the group. This will be no big deal. Either the current member who invited them, or the new prospective member themselves, will simply email me with the name and email address, and what they want traffic for, and I'll add them to the list. Then others in the group will see it and they can begin getting their guaranteed high quality traffic.

8. This is obviously all reciprocal, all win-win. The idea is to basically visit everybody's sites a few times a week or even every day if possible as you go about your ordinary internet activities and participate, comment, and click. This needn't take more than a few minutes, and it will guarantee that we all have traffic and, of course, cash flow from whatever affiliation commisions we're involved in. That in turn will motivate further interest on the part of everybody in everyone else.

9. We can offer deals to members on the group and other incentives. Joint ventures can be proposed and the possibilities are basically endless. But what's more, we'll have the FUNDS generated by all our mutual traffic.

10. As your funds climb and checks arrive, continue to recruit and tell the group how you're doing. This will keep us all psyched and our computers cranking out the great info, contacts, and legal tender!

Note: Promote products you support (morally or otherwise) and supply content that actually interest you!

A Word About Click Fraud

In order to make this a success we need to realize that it's basically all for one and one for all. The only reason we could possibly be accused of something like click fraud is because we were only clicking and never buying affiliate products. As far as I know this highly is unlikely anyway, and will grow even more so the more and more people join our group/network. That is, the more people that join, the more diverse the clickers of ads and affiliate links will become, making any click fraud suspicians more and more unfounded. But in order to completely eliminate the possibility, we need to purches some of the things affiliates are advertising now and then. This is also in keeping with our win-win philosophy.

Final Word - Let's Go For It!

I have a feeling this may be the next wave in networking on the web. People are going to begin forming their own more personal networks, rather than relying on and increasingly saturated and gargantuan internet market to supply them with traffic. Networking is open to anybody who networks. Why sit around and wait for some anonymous zombie user to search on your keywords or run into your ad when you can have a bunch of people you can rely on to visit, click, and exchange ideas? And again, all win and nobody loses. Even larger more tradtional companies and networks.

I'm sure this idea has occured to people but my emphasis is what may be a bit new. This is to keep it grassroots, personal, win-win, and high level-participatory. And this has broader implications than just the internet. It can apply to our social/business lives in general. The internet is opening up new ways to cooperate that simple space and time restrictions in the past made more difficult. Now we can rocket each other to new heights by merely realizing we are doing that.

Quick List to get Started:

1. Send me a message at william_macbride@yahoo.com that includes the links you want traffic and clicks on. You're encouraged to get a new email address to use for the group because if you do a lot of clicing, especially on things like CPA offers that other group members have, you may get a lot of marketing email.

[note: If you don't have any affiliate programs, ehow articles, a web site, and so on, try to get at least something along those lines going first. You can get an ehow account and post an article in probably 20 minutes. It's very easy to start a blog and get adsense ads on it as well. if you need more info about how to do any of these things, ask me in the email].

2. I'll email you back the current list of members with their links.

3. Begin visiting the links, commenting, and clicking. As soon as possible (especially in the early stages because with fewer members our clicking could look a bit suspicious) consider buying something, even if its only something small. This will promote the win-win ideology and reduce any click fraud type suspicions more and more.

4. Watch the traffic, interesting info, and money roll in!

THAT'S REALLY ALL THERE IS TO IT!
