Years ago I explored PLR products and made some use of them. But I found that majority of it was outdated, hard to find current information on topics. Does anyone know of a good source of fresh, current PLR?

I tried it and was very disappointed by their support, as in there was basically none. Live & learn even after all these years.

In 2015 I purchased the original 5-Figure Day program, and actually started making money with it. They were using Clickbank at the tine, and I received $60 each payment. At $97/mo., funds ran low and I couldn't continue. But I always felt it would've grown if I kept it up. Now I see that it's called 5-Figure Day Full Throttle, and changed quite a bit. They're with WarriorPlus now, and I'm thinking of going there again since I did get some some return the first time. But before I do, has anyone had any experience with this program? I'd like to hear from those who have actually worked it, or anyone who has verifiable information if it's good or not (not reviews from obviously biased 5FD users ). Thanks! -- Joel

Yes, I heard about the PayPal fiasco. I remember you from years ago when I hung out here the first time around. Cool to see that you're still here, with the same profile pic/avatar, lol. That reminds me, I need to add one. EDIT: Done. Thanks Darren! I was pleasantly surprised to see that my accounts with List Jumper, Adchiever and here were still intact. Thought I had deleted them years ago when I didn't think I'd be back. Nice to find I could pick up where I left off.

Well here it is 6 years later and I've returned to IM and safelisting and all that it entails. My reason for leaving was a mixture of health issues for both me and my wife, and lack of time due to those health issues; but things have improved to where I can get back to it, and basically pick up where I left off. A lot of my favorite safelists have disappeared, sadly, but many of them remain, and I found a couple newer ones that I really like. Starting over is strange, but I did once, I'll do it again. The upside is I have more time now that I took early retirement. See ya 'round! -- Joel

The title of this thread immediately threw me back to the late 90's with the now famous "This dumb little ad" promotion of Cookie Cutter. lol

The greatest lesson I learned, early on, was that there really is no such thing as getting rich quick. There is no such thing as making a livable income without a website, without selling, without doing anything at all. Whenever someone throws that pitch, I laugh and click away to something else. To make money online, you MUST work at it. You DO need a website. You DO have to do some kind of selling. You DO have to do SOMEthing - and you have to do a LOT of it.

There are a couple dozen or so spammers who keep coming back to my spam folder, even after clicking the unsubscribe button. After a few times of doing that I stopped clicking and just let them pour in, never open them, and let Google delete them after 30 days. You'll rarely find legitimate email in your spam folder if you make sure to set up filters for all senders that you do want to hear from. Any new legit senders who don't have filters set up for them yet, won't usually go to the spam folder because they're not sending anything that pulls the trigger. Basically, your efforts should be focused on legit senders, and the spam will fall by the wayside automatically. Google will take out the trash for you.

It's much faster to search for and find targeted content for my blogs. It pulls in content from multiple sources all at once, displays it to me, and I can simply drag & drop snippets that I want to share with readers. Curation is not the same as spinning (for those who aren't aware). It's much like a museum curator, who finds the best pieces of art to display in his museum. For blogs, I'm simply finding the best bits of relevant content, and putting it on my blog. All properly credited, of course, and I do add my own thoughts and original info as well. But curation software saves a lot of footwork for finding extra content.

Does anyone here have experience with content curation? It's something I'm seriously considering, and have found two software tools to help with that. But having no experience with them, I'm hoping someone can help me decide which one to get. I know that ultimately it's up to me, what features attract me, etc. But I'm looking more for advice as to user friendliness, stability, and basically best results. The two products I'm looking at are CurationSoft and Curation Traffic. If anyone has used one or both, I'd appreciate your thoughts on them.

I love the concept, and it's nice to see the site is mobile responsive! And yes, it's better in the long run to invest in a your own domain and hosting. These days you can find good but inexpensive deals for that.

Awesome and great idea! I haven't been as attentive to social media as I should be, so maybe this will help.

In all honesty, since I can't afford paid advertising, I have no choice but to use free sources. TE's fall in that category.

Yes, that really is annoying. An upsell every now & then would be fine, as a reminder, but every single time is just too much. Agreed, though I'm not sure how that can be avoided without hiring a full-time team of vetters to check every business opportunity that gets advertised. Again, yes, that doesn't seem fair. Not sure what the logic is behind it, but I'll probably find out when I start running my own list.
