I'm not exactly sure of the total amount, but...I put in about $250 in chunks of $20-$50 dollars at a time, and sold a handful of keywords here and there along the way (it's bound to happen), and once I learned the strategy of running keywords to $19.32, that's what I started to do. Before that I was buying words really low, and that will take forever to reach Gold.
Using the strategy of buying a keyword to $19.32 for 1000 points, I got to Gold quite fast, and upon reaching Gold, I had somewhere between $45-$49 dollars still in my account.
I now have 122 keywords, valued at $640.70 so if I sell all of my keywords, I'll come out over $400 ahead of where I started.
If you want to use the strategy of running keywords to $19.32, let me help you do it quickly.
Do your research of your keywords, find the words you want to use, let me spend the time to run them to $1 for you. It takes a lot of clicks to get to $1, and it takes time to do keyword research. While you research your keywords, I can take those you do find and run them to $1 and then you can run them to $19.32 and get your points.
Once I learned about this strategy, I got to Gold very fast. It doesn't take long to run up 50 words from $1 to $19.32
Here is the overall strategy...
I believe teamwork as I mentioned above helps everyone do this quickly. It allows a Gold such as me to get to Diamond quicker, and it allows someone seeking Gold to get there much quicker. Once you reach Gold, you then help others get there, which in turn helps you get to Diamond quicker.
Time is very important here as you want to get to Diamond BEFORE the cut off date for bonus money.
If you want to use this strategy, but would prefer talking to me first for more clarification of how to do this as quickly and effectively as possible, then send me a private message on the forum system, or send me an email at
GregoryLohr@gmail.com or Skype me at Gregory.Lohr and if you include a phone number in your email, I will gladly call you anywhere in the US or Canada. I can even call many European countries and a few others for free.
I'll be happy to help anyone get to Gold using the strategy I mentioned above. We all need to work together as there is a limited amount of time to reach Diamond status.
And just to let you know, I ran most of my words starting at around $1-$3, up to $19.32 and I still got the points. If you can afford to put in $200-$300 on the front side, this is the quick way to get there.
Once you listen to the calls listen at the top of the forum, you will want to find this money any way you can. I couldn't afford to put the money in upfront either, but once I knew what was at stake, I changed my priorities. That is a risk that only you can decide to make though. I felt it was worth the risk for me.
Here's to our mutual success everyone!!!
