Week 3 2/24

This week so far I've been setting up different social media accounts including Instagram, Reddit, and Pinterest. As well trying to build up a following with a help of a video from "Lazy Ass Stoner" on Youtube.

 

             In which, I would first focus on a niche, and try to find someone with a large following that                posts related content to my niche. Then I would follow a bunch of their followers, and some                of them would follow my account too, since those followers and I appear to have the same                  interests. 

Once I build up a good amount of followers, I would then post content valuable to the followers and earn their "trust" in a way. So I could be able to market some products to them. 

Week 2 2/10

I have decided to switch my 20-time project from photography into affiliate marketing.

Questions
1) What kind of resources/skills do I need for affiliate marketing?
2) What are ways to drive traffic to an affiliate link?
3) Which websites, books, or videos can I learn information about affiliate marketing?
4) How much money would I have to invest in doing affiliate marketing?

Week 1 2/2

My first proposal for the 20-time project was mainly about an online business, or just making money online. Like how I would start a web design/development business, or do some kind of marketing. I should've written a bit more, because one of the feedback I've gotten was "do you even know how to create websites?", and I do know how to create websites, well simple, with HTML, CSS, and some Javascript. I could've gotten better feedback than that question, if I would've added more info.

Overall, I didn't really have good feedback. So far I had a compliment, a question if I'm going to do this as a career, a question if I'm doing this solo or not (pretty much all of the things I talked about can be done solo), and a couple of questions about where I'm going to get funds (the things I listed, doesn't really need funds, and even if I need money I'll just use money from work). Again, I should've explained a bit more while writing the proposal.

After some researching, I'm planning to focus my 20-time project on photography, learning to improve my photography skills. I plan to take quite an amount of pictures, and posting it on an Instagram account. As some of my work, needs some improvement.

Ex.

I think while doing this project, I would also learn about social media marketing just to learn more about marketing. Which I think would be a useful skill to learn in my future.
