Not much to report today, but I do have a list of the top 10 performers in the safelists as far as clicks go anyway. Got a total of 144 clicks in the last 24 hours. No new referrals. I may have lost one as the backoffice only shows 4 in the contest standings now whereas it was showing 5.
Anyway here is the list of the top ten sites for clicks after about 1500+ clicks:
Site Clicks
www.newage-mkt.com 179
www.gotsafelist.com 146
twe-safelist.com 113
mysafelistmailer.com 79
listbuildingmaximizer.com 72
www.themailbagsafelist.com 55
adtroopers.com 55
qualitysafelist.com 52
globalsafelist.com 47
safelistxl.com 40
Clearly Newage Market Safelist, GotSafelist and Together We Earn Safelist are leading the pack everyday.
Side note: The safelist sites are way out performing the text-ad exchanges. The TAE solos are really dismal at best in the clicks they are getting.

Day 22 Progress Update

Day 21 Progress Update
Today was a good day not so much for getting any new referrals because I didn't, but for the fact of the 5 referrals I do have now at least one of them is actively working the system. Since I joined this thing I wondered how we could tell if any of our referrals were active or not and today I discovered one way to tell.
How you ask? You start getting messages at your contact email address that you have a new referral in some of the safelists.
I asked some of the veteran members how you could tell and the answer I was given was that you could see their referral count inside the system's backoffice in the contest area. I hadn't been seeing any so as far as I knew all of my referrals were lookie-luus. But today I have a little proof that one of them is active and thats a good thing!

Day 20 Progress Update
Today is day 20 in my journey, I'm on task list 24 in the backoffice. I sent an email to my upline sponsor yesterday with my stats and telling him of my progress. No reply back from him yet. Got a surprisingly low 82 clicks yesterday. I haven't been paying any real attention to the [erformance of certain days but I would have thought Sunday would be one of the best.
But then again it was Mother's Day and that might account for the low click volume.
No new referrals since the two yesterday. Going to go click some solo links for a while and build up credits again. Heres a bit of useful info for you. Of the overall stats to my 10K Challenge bitly link (over 1400 clicks total now to it) NewageMKT safelist seems to be the most active, followed by GotSafelist and Louise Cardow's TWE-Safelist.
Anyway thats all for today. If you've subscribed to this blog and keeping up with my progress I invite you to join me in the challenge. Click here to join me and I will do my best to help you succeed.

Day 19 Progress Update
Wow can't believe it's been a week since I've made an update post. This past week was really hectic and I didn't get to work everyday on the 10K Challenge task list. But the good news is I now have 5 referrals here on my 19th day into the challenge.
Some stats for you: On day 19 I can mail out 59k emails daily and with the other safelists accounts that allow mailings anywhere from 2 - 4 days intervals or just weekly that adds another 42k emails that can be sent.
I'm averaging between 200 - 400 clicks per day. So 5 referrals is pretty good at this point I think.
Thats all for today. I'm hoping this week to be more active and of course keep this journal updated a little more frequently. From what I'm seeing so far this system will work, but the key is you HAVE TO WORK the system.

Day 12 Progress Update
Today's update may rub some people the wrong way and some people might actually see it as negative. But really it's not, it is the truth whether the veterans of the program want to admit it or not.
Okay, so you're wondering what I could say that may be so controversial? Well here it is and remember I'm just reporting what I know and you all should know is the truth if you've been in the 10K Challenge for anything over a week.
You will never make it in this program if you follow it to the "T" and only use the recommended ad sources.
Now let me qualify that statement and please hear me out.
The other day we got a system wide email from the program originator Debbie Penner that stated that the 10K Challenge membership count is now beyond 7000 members. Now think about that... if all of the members are using the same ad sources then you know they are getting saturated big time with the same ads over and over causing people to get ad blindness to 10K Challenge ads.
But we all know that there aren't 7000 active members, in fact I'd place my bet on roughly 10% of that or 700 members being actually active in this program.
Still that's a huge amount of people using the same ad sources.
Now anyone that uses the recommended ad sources has to admit that right now you are seeing tons of ads for 10K Challenge. You can spot them a mile away because people are such copy cats they use each others subject lines like sheep jumping a log.
Okay, I hope you're still with me as I'm going to bring this all back home for you now.
If you haven't figured it out here is what the real goal is in having the daily tasks and why we were given a straight set of ad sources...
...it's to get you used to doing a daily routine of promoting - plain and simple!
Had we not of been given a list of places to place our ad promos 99 out of 100 people who joined this program would never have even gotten started because they would not know where to start. Being as such they would never get into a daily routine of promoting their links everyday.
So the moral of the story is this first 30 days you are being trained to think like a marketer and develop a daily routine of promoting yourself. However I hope you catch on to the saturation problem quickly and start thinking a little for yourself and using your own ad sources.
Of course if you really want to just stick to the ones given in the system then try and come up with a way to make yourself unique from the rest of the masses promoting the same links over and over.
And finally my stats for the day 160 new views from yesterday to my links and no new referrals.
I created a video yesterday to promote my 10K Challenge referral link. I'm also testing a view booster site that for now I want to keep under wraps until I see if it really helps boost my rankings on Youtube like it claims it does.
I'll keep you informed of the progress of that as well.
Thats it for today. I'll be back tomorrow with another update till then - Keep plugging and please don't be a sheep. :)

Day 11 Progress Update
Well didn't have a very productive day yesterday. Due to some other obligations I got started late and since most of the safelists used in this system work on a 24 hour timer I didn't want to throw off my schedule of working the system. I did however register accounts with the last of the new safelists that were unlocked for Day 14 in the tasks list and sent out a promo ad for those new accounts.
Out of those promos I sent I got an additional 88 clicks to my link, but no referrals. So currently I'm sitting at around 600 clicks to my referral link with one referral.
Got an email from Debbie Penner this morning announcing a new feature that was enabled in the 10k Challenge backoffice. We can now see the signup date for our referrals. This is pretty cool in that we can now have a rough estimate of when to expect our referrals to pass their 30 day mark and become a real active member in our downlines if they choose to upgrade in the system's first program Infinity Downline.
Thats all for today. Tomorrow I hope to have more activity to report.

Day 10 Progress Update
Sent out almost 80,000 promos yesterday. My click tracking shows an increase of 220 clicks so sending out more is definitely helping to get more clicks. However no new referrals and it appears the one I got from Day 6 is a non-active referral. So basically I'm at ground zero again.
No biggie, its still way early in the game. After I've had a few thousand clicks its time to be more concerned not right now with just barely over 500 clicks.
The weekend is coming up and I'm going to devote some time to promoting in other ways as well as the system recommended venues. I'll keep you posted. :)
