The whole video-games-on-Youtube is chasing the wrong demographic for Adsense clicks. The younger, more tech-savvy the audience, the more likely they are to have an ad blocker installed. Better to chase the older crowd who "surf the web" with Internet Explorer.

The problem with signature campaigns is that it reduces the quality of posts in the forum. For you sig guys, be honest: there are many times where you otherwise wouldn't have posted but since you have "work" to do you add a half-thought out comment and jet off to do the same on another thread.

This is pretty nifty and if you don't need Paypal, you could conceivably have PMPro up and running with recurring crypto payments. I've been looking quite a bit for WordPress membership plugins that allow BTC payment and this is all I've found:

• Paid Memberships Pro, via either your Plugin or Braintree (which integrates Coinbase). $200/year (free plugin, but will most likely require ponying up for the premium membership to access any of their 40+ premium addons).
• IgnitionDeck - WP crowdfunding platform that does memberships as well. It is WordPress, but it feels very much like you're in their distinct platform. $150/year
• MemberMouse - via Coinbase (or Braintree). Lots of nifty features, but it's really a complex system (and they obfuscate their code, so unless you get things working with their public API / push notifications, you're SOL). Either $20/month or $100/month for better reporting.

Yes I can give you Adsense-safe traffic if that's all you want, but I feel you're missing the larger goal of this service. I can work with you to start increasing organic rankings to go along with a bit of paid traffic, the two working together to give you a constant stream of high quality traffic. It's a little more work, but you'll still be reaping the benefits long after I'm out of the picture.

This is a good time to step back and just watch how fear pervades the markets. It could be just a correction, but of course it could be something larger:

The traffic offer is for growing a site organically and via paid placements. AHREFs & Majestic will reveal many easy SEO linking opportunities, AuthorityMetrics reports will reveal low-hanging easy to rank for keywords with traffic while the other services like Ispionage and WhatRunsWhere will enable you to reverse engineer competitor's paid traffic strategies. Hitleap is junk traffic - you won't get many leads from it and your Adsense advertisers on your site likely won't be pleased with their lead quality either. This is a long-term traffic strategy that I'm offering which will also drastically improve the quality of leads you get to your site (buyers not clickers).

That said, I can also provide Adsense safe traffic that is much better than Hitleap.

Bump .. your traffic

Good. Go start your own thread then.

If you just focus on the largest wallets then yes I see a bit of a prisoner's dilemma. But there would have to be some stressor - like the value of BTC starts dropping as doom & gloom news starts to mount.

Then the large wallets play the game: they can all hold and help the price stabilize. Or one of them can coward-out and dump their BTC in the hope of getting all they can, further suppressing the price.

For Sanitary napkin, Tissue, Diapers, go to where the customers are: Amazon. They'll take their cut, but as you don't have much of a marketing budget, it's a great first step.

If you want to sell direct to the consumer, I'd advise starting a monthly membership targeting new moms - they get X number of diapers a month at a set price. If you need help reaching new moms (easy to do either through Facebook audiences or Google Content Network targeting) check out my marketing service in my signature.

That's not the reason people move to gold - quite the opposite in fact. People love that it's not revolutionary, that it's time tested, or that there's no need to keep a browser tab open to keep up with the drama ('XT fork, OMG!') It's simple: people view gold as a better store of value if ever the sh*t hits the fan.

Namecheap is the biggest provider of domain names and hosting that also offers BTC as a payment option. I use them as one of my registrars and their support is really good.

Just owning a website isn't enough. I assume you want to achieve specific goals with it: maybe running a successful service or just carving out a platform for yourself on the crowded Internet. But to do any of that you're going to need traffic:

• Getting into the Alexa Million would help, wouldn't it? We can help by providing competitive intelligence reports of your competitors' traffic strategies.

Display network intelligence is available for & Google's Content Network and BuySellAds, among others:



-- You can also find the best SEO strategies for your niche:

## The Offer ##

Signing up for these services yourself would cost you over $1K a month. These services are enterprise grade - the Ahrefs bot for example rivals the Googlebot in crawl depth. They reveal so much hidden information, but the common site owner is often stuck with inferior tools to try to come up with a competitive traffic strategy by themselves. So here's the offer:

• 10 competitive reports per week across any of the above services. These will be generated as either CSV or PDFs and emailed to you within 24 hours of request (Mon - Fri).
• Ongoing training for how to use these services. The first training will be on using Advault to find the best placements on native ad platforms, the second will be an easy niche-specific SEO trick utilizing either Majestic or Ahrefs reports.

Getting into the Alexa Million only requires about 200 visitors a day. If you're not there yet, we can help your site get noticed.

I was excited until I realized that Stripe doesn't do recurring payments: https://support.stripe.com/questions/can-i-pay-subscriptions-in-bitcoin-with-stripe

Coinbase seems like the better option if you want to do recurring subscriptions.

I think it's interesting to look at it from a demographic perspective. But you also have to realize that the billions of unbanked aren't very tech savvy, and if you asked a random villager whether they wanted a digital wallet that contained $500 in BTC or a lump of gold they could hold in their hands worth $100, they'd probably take the lump of gold every time.

I think it's fine if he really believes in gold. No shame in profiting from something if you think that's what the world needs.

The operative word is "trust" - I'd rather manage it myself as my experience has given me very little faith in the various BTC institutions that have been advertised on this very forum. I know that's probably unfair to the proprietor of that trust, but I don't think it's an overly harsh assessment given the charlatans and amateurs I've encountered in the BTC world.

There is an interesting link in that interview to Overstock's CEO and what he envisions the blockchain becoming:

Pretty decent doc, but would really like to see one that makes the entire shell game understandable to the average person clicking over from Facebook / email.

Anyone have any thoughts on his site? Looks like they are pushing gold as currency money.

Anyone have a link to the 10 year tourist visas OP referred to?

Many people on eBay selling mining equipment / contracts will accept BTC, but most will only advertise that in private messages or if you ask them. It takes some trust though on the part of both parties. My sense was that many of them accepted it as a way to avoid ebay's fees.
