Unhappy Is This A Guess Work?

Since i have started 90 Day Challenge i have built 16 sites. 2 of them have started to gain nice traffic without me building any backlinks, i mean i just built them and after couple of days traffic hit them.

I have made 120$ after more than 3 months with 1 site in AdSense profits only.

The question is what is with other 14 websites that receive no traffic. Okay maybe 6 of them receive very little traffic, but again what with the rest of 8 sites that have absolutely no traffic?

This game is like guess work. You throw everything against the wall and expect something to stick. I would like to stick with what 100% works.

I have a feeling that building backlinks and submitting articles for those sites won't work. I don't know why i think so. I would like to be able to know whether the market is working before putting up a website and wasting time on promoting it.

I am free PLRpro member so who knows, maybe markets that Marc and Daniel put there are not profitable or highly competitive, since everybody who is a free PLRpro member competes with each other.

Default sounds to me...

Hello,
Sounds to me like you want what all of us want "a sure bet". Well that ain't going to happen. Life is a crap shoot too, nothing is ever guaranteed. If it was, then everyone would do it. Sounds to me that you are not doing what M & D have told you to do. Did you follow the plan for all 90 days on all of those 16 sites. Sounds to me like you did not. You put them up and did nothing, or little. How do I know this, by what you are saying. I think that article marketing won't work, what is that "i think". Just do it, yea it takes work and time, but that is part of the process. I can tell you this, it "does work", I am living proof. And yes, it is one hell of a lot of work, you bet. Was it worth it, you bet. Do nothing and that is what you are going to get, "nothing". Do something and you will probably be rewarded, that is if you do it correctly, which is layed out for you. So the choice is yours. "if you think you can, you can......if you think you can't, you can't......either way you are right.
Sorry for beating you up a bit, but I usually say what I feel and don't sugar coat much...
I know that doing article marketing "does work". there is no guess work at all. It works, so "do you want traffic", then do something to get it. You put a site up and think that the world is going to come running is the wrong way to do it. The 90 day plan does work. Yes of course some sites are going to do better than others, that is just the way it is. Maybe you need to join plrpro when it reopens and get the 11 niches, rather than just 2 and a limited amount of content.
There are many ways to get traffic, many ways. If you want traffic you need to go out and get it.
Article marketing
social networking
hub pages
squidoo lens
directory submissions
and on and on.
If you do those things for your sites, I guarantee you are going to get traffic. I also guarantee that if you do nothing on those sites you are not going to get any traffic. The one's that you did nothing on and are getting traffic you got real lucky. don't count on that happening to often.
So, rather than guessing or thinking that this won't work or that won't work, try doing those things and then you can make a decision based on data rather than "i think", that ain't going to get it done.
Good luck,
Steve
