This looks like a really good deal for print on demand merch. I'm not sure if it's really a "one day sale" or not but you can download all of their art work for $20.

Their license says it's OK to use on things like tees and it isn't easy to find licenses that allow you to do so inexpensively.

My critique is they have a really big variety but the images are pretty simple and probably best for kids designs. Nothing wrong with this and moms buy a lot of stuff for their kids and this is a huge market and there's a lot you can do with simple designs. But these designs may not be best for your market.

For $20 and the license offered this looks like a great deal.

Even though I'm an old (emphasis on old) IT guy, I rarely will make a public declaration against software or devices. That may change because I'm about to start doing technology reviews but it takes a lot for me to be upset enough to tell everyone. 

I made a huge mistake last night. I bought a silent mouse to replace an aging one that needs to be put out of its misery.

I had never heard of a silent mouse but figured it was, well, silent. Since I work during the night most nights due to time zone differences, I am always afraid my clicking and clacking will keep people up. 

So I decided to try it.

I hated it immediately. I was buying something this morning, for example, and wound up clicking the link twice since I didn't get the sound feedback. 

So, I bought a good old fashioned loud mouse and I'm happy again. But, I'm positive that if I had to work a whole day with that silent mouse, I would be locked up either in jail or a mental hospital. It was not fun.

You've been warned. Stay far away from these evil devices that must have been sown in the depths of hell to bring misery to mankind.

Print On Demand Ideas are always running through my mind... they dare not walk. lol

I am no graphics artist by any means, so please think as my stuff as rough at the best.

This idea is for T-Shirts.

Add your domain name for exposure.

Many years ago "stitching pages" was a method of creating doorway pages for ranking in SEs. Stitching was adding elements from different sources to a web page, like a little text, some links from ODP/DMOZ, some RSS feeds, amazon results, etc.

Stitching pages is actually a pretty good strategy today too, but you do it with multi-media and original content. Here's a content and marketing plan anyone can do for free.

You need to be able to create print on demand products like tees and mugs (and planty more) and list them either on a site like Etsy or on your own Woocommerce or shopify store.

By creating your own products you are in control. You don't need to be approved for affiliate programs and you get paid a lot quicker. If I make a sale on Amazon Merch it will take 4-8 weeks for me to see the money. But with my own POD products on Etsy I'll see the money in a day or two.

POD also lets you create your own products in a variety of niches and once you get the process down you can create good, vialble products in tons of niches really quickly.

Next you need to build a presence at sites like Quora, Reddit, LinkedIn and maybe FB groups. This takes time. But be smart. Be helpful. And brand yourself. At Reddit you can build a lot of karma in niches you enjoy. Get your karma up in them. Then join in a few subreddits where your target audience is and build a good reputation here. Same general idea with the others.

Create a big page of "stitched" content that will appeal to your target folks like "43 Things Nurses Need to Know About Covid" and make a great page using infographics, links, videos, etc.

And embed your "Nurses are Heroes" tee in your page too.

And repeat. Most of these will be "duds" but this is something that you can grind away at over and over and you'll get some "hits" and build links at the same time.

If someone only had $11 to invest, I think this is what I'd recommend.

Get an account with a free email autoresponder service like MailChimp that has a free landing page feature.

Here's a video on how to set up landing pages with Mail Chimp:

Buy a domain and learn how to create redirects. Here's how to do it using NameCheap:
 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZE_SCLA6DY

Get a free site at something like Wix or Weebly.

Take an hour and really master how to use URL redirects and sub domain redirects at Namecheap and use them to point links to your MailChimp landing pages and your Wix/Weebly pages.

This way when you're ready for your own hosting you can change your redirects from Wix to your own site.

MailChimp has limitations for marketers. Use it as a test and only until you're getting results. Then get an account at GetResponse or aWeber and send your redirects either to landing pages on those accounts or to pages on your own site.

I think landing page builders offered by all the autoresponder companies and a really underrated resource and they're easy to get everything hooked up and looking good. Wix and Weebly offer quite a few options for landing pages and using URL redirects keeps you in control while depending on free third party resources.

Anyone using WordPress for niche websites, landing pages, etc.?

One thing I like about Pheeds is it is a MyBB forum and anyone can add WordPress (WP) as the front-end. Also, if you already have a WP site(s) on the front-end it is very easy to add Pheeds/MyBB Forum to the website. In other words, when someone visits your website WP can be the first introduction to you, your brand, etc. and more importantly Pheeds can empower your MyBB forum for collaboration, a means of getting to know your visitors - visitors getting to know you, a support forum instead of a full customer support software application that can be very taxing and with Pheeds/MyBB forum we can make new friends.

In many ways there are people that "Talk the Talk' and that is all they do whereas with Pheeds/MyBB you "Walk The Walk!" Is there a better way to build your brand? I don't think so. Sure, anyone can join a online community for the purpose of building a brand, but... how do other people percieve them when they have nothing to endorse the brand, product, service. When people realize there is nothing to gain they may also realize they have everything to lose. People in our business do not want to be losers.

Enter WordPress, Pheeds and your own forum. You have all of the control. Want to share your talents, skills, rub shoulders with like minded people, attract affiliates, sell yourself, etc. The sky is the limit. It may be the beginning of a whole new business model, it may be the end to the "shiny object syndrome" and that means a lot to our bottom line.

Content Silo - The Ugly and Exremely Useful Page for Writing Content
https://pheeds.com/misc/ContentSilo.html

You can also access it directly from the top navigation menu on each forum page:
| Content Silo |

Problem: Writing content often means switching from one program window with your notes and research to another window to create your original content.

Solution: Content Silo is a simple web page with 3 boxes so you can paste in notes, research and type in the work area and see all three at the same time.

Suggested use:

Left/Yellow Box
Notes, headlines, keywords, etc.

Center/Gray Box
Research, PLR, stats, etc.

Right/Blue Box
Your original work and has character and word count.

You can resize each box by clicking and dragging the bottom right corner of each.

One of the surest ways to grow online is to participate in communities. It's not a fast way to make money but it's a very reliable and long term.

Look for opportunities to reach people THEN think about things you can sell. Real marketing is finding the market FIRST then products and services for that market.

If you're just starting join Quora, FB and Reddit and get a feel for how they work. Find forums that are active and offer finacial opportunity.

And participate.

Don't try to sell directly in these places. Instead NETWORK with the influencers in each. Help the communties and get yourself "known". If you're in a few FB groups, on a couple of forums, and active in Quora and Reddit you can use the stuff you find in one to post in the others.

Be creative. FB doesn't allow sigs but you can create an animated GIF upload it to GIPHY and include the URL to it every time you post. Not an ad, but something to brand yourself as the helpful person.

And participate. Especially here at the Pheeds Phorum.

Question and Info: I purchased "Pheed Me Traffic" and I would appreciate some suggestions on how to best monetize this process for a newbie? Blog with Adsense, Clickbank, IM PLR? regular PLR, CPA? I know it's a dumb question
