I see this advertising method used all of the time, and apparently it works for some people. There is a better technique to capitalizing in this business however. All that you have to do is stop trying so hard. The fact of the matter is that you can make money on the internet by simply chatting with the people that you run into that have similar interests.
My website is a decent example. Though it's only a week or so old, it's getting traffic, and it's been indexed by the major search engines, now I just have to keep talking about it. It's that simple people. See for yourself at

Take care!
