I’m sure you guys are aware that Entrecard was recently put up for sale, well, apparently it’s not for sale anymore. At least not right now.

I haven’t been active at all on Entrecard and matter of fact, I can’t remember the last time I logged into any of my accounts (I’m still trying to figure out how these ads on my widget gets approved without my permission!).

Anyways, I first read that Entrecard was for sale on Jason’s TUK blog and I laughed about it. I was thinking to myself, well, finally they’re selling! But that’s not why I laughed. I LOL’d, I mean, I really laughed out loud on this one. Entrecard was put on auction with a starting bid of $100,000 and a BIN of less than a million.

I honestly don’t think its worth that much especially the fact that I read the site makes only $2,000/month which is pretty crappy for an entire network if you ask me. That’s a clear case of not knowing how to monetize properly (I’ll be writing a post about that for tomorrow), but at least it’s something.

On top of that, the Entrecard reputation hasn’t been that good especially the fact that a lot of big name bloggers bashed the site for various reasons.

I made a guess and said Entrecard wasn’t going to be purchased at that price or Graham, the owner, would not end up selling the site for whatever reason.

And you’ve guessed it, I was right!

If you take a look at the Sitepoint auction , originally it had a whole detailed report on why it was listed, the stats, etc. But now all that information was taken off, the auction was canceled and if you scroll down to comment #24, the seller said “site not for sale anymore.”

Personally, I don’t know what the reason is but if I had to take a guess, it would be one of two conclusions: The owner was getting too much crap because of the worth (or lack of) of the site and decided not to sell it until he figured certain things out or he is back into negotiations with a Venture Capitalist on expanding that into a full company with employees.

Either way, the site is not for sale anymore as we speak and I bet you’ll see it on auction in the next six months or so again!

I’ve been meaning to write this post for a while but I’ve been procrastinating so busy but I wanted to make this official so you guys can follow this.

Remember before when I talked a little bit about site flipping and I told you guys about my site flipping group and I was going to outline blueprints on how we went about doing things. Well, since that contest isn’t officially over until mid October (45 day long contest), I figured I would create 10 niche websites in 10 days and let you guys know how I did it.

I will not be revealing my URL’s (well, maybe one?) but I’ll talk about everything else. But I know building 10 niche sites can be done in one day but you have to factor in all the other projects I have as well as a day-time job and a social life.

There are two purposes for taking on this mini-project; to either sell the site or to just create a one-time set up site and just let it ride and make Adsense earnings without doing anything else from it.

Actually, maybe three purposes. I’m doing this as well so I can stop procrastinating and just do it.

I got some feedback on people interested in site flipping so instead of just having generic posts, I figured I’d let you guys just follow me in building 10 niche sites in 10 days. Don’t worry, I’ll reveal at least one site’s URL when I’m done.

The URL I reveal will probably be one that I’m going to sell (or hopefully already sold). People have left comments and stuff but if you need some personal help, feel free to drop me an e-mail or instant messenger. Some of you guys already have but I figured I’d open up the invitation to everyone.

Just a note I wanted to toss out there is the fact that I’m not claiming to be a professional site flipper or anything but I have enough knowledge and some experience to back it up. Plus, who else is willing to help you on a personal level with this?

I appreciate everyone who took the time to ask a question (or two) and if you know me, I always like helping out when I can and if people are still interested in this Q&A here, then I’ll continue to do it. Don’t worry, you guys will continue to get backlinks if you ask as well!

Before I get into the Q&A, I asked if people liked the NFL and there was something I’m stirring up. Well, I decided that I’m going to do an NFL Picks Challenge each week. It’s simple, each week we pick who will win and we start keeping track. At the end of the week, the person with the best record will get the prize.

For instance, for Week 3, I was 10-5 in picking the correct teams to win. Do you think you can beat me (and others)? Well, if so, leave a comment here or e-mail and I will get this set up.

Anyways, let’s get to the Q&A!

As a lot of you guys should know, I’m always up for helping people when I can. Some people e-mail me or send me an instant message and I always take the time to reply back (sometimes it takes some time but I get there) and others just leave comments here and I try to answer when I can. But I’m finally holding a Q&A session and which you can ask any question you want and I’ll give you a backlink to your site just for asking!

Now, I’m pretty open on the questions you can ask but keep in mind if I can’t answer it then I can’t answer it. Don’t worry, you’ll still get your backlink though!

You can ask any questions about my online ventures, making money online, my personal life, my thoughts and opinions on politics, talk about sports, I really don’t care. I just figured I’d give everybody an opportunity to ask questions and have my undivided attention on it.

And yes, feel free to ask more than one question. But try to keep it under, um, 5? I don’t think many people will ask questions but just incase they do, I don’t want to have to answer 100 questions all about the same thing. LOL!

Anyways, feel free to ask, I’ll give it a few days and post it early next week.

Oh, and if anyone is interested in NFL football, let me know by leaving a comment below as well! I have something planned on that if enough people are interested and willing to participate.

Thanks!

I got a few e-mails requesting that I don’t reveal my secrets because it would not only hurt myself but hurt those other people doing it as well. The people that contacted me, I respect highly so I decided to password protect that post. Unfortunately, those of you guys subscribed via e-mail already have it plus, those 20 commentators also know how to do it.

I was pondering if I should have deleted that post because I did in fact hurt my own chances with my earnings so I thought that I should not give away that information just for free. I’m not going to charge anything, matter of fact, I may not let anyone else read that post. The important part of the post was the fact that I hit my goal and I just wanted to share my accomplishment.

Some people say I just hurt myself in revealing my secret and that may be so but I doubt every single reader will actually go about and do it exactly how I said to. Plus, it’s not like every person wants to do it or has the time to do it in the first place.

Anyways, I wanted to apologize to the few people that sent me private messages and e-mails, I didn’t mean to expose your secret as well, I just wanted to share with some of my loyal readers to give them a chance to earn a few extra dollars.

So, for now, if you didn’t get a chance to read that post, the only thing that matters is the fact that I hit another accomplishment by making $100/day strictly from Google Adsense.
