Work

lucky.ie

This is a project i’ve been working on quietly for the past while with enda of iliveontheweb.com. Enda and myself are working on several partnerships at the minute but this is definitely the ‘fun’ one.

Lucky.ie will start out as a place for enda and myself to go head to head in a gambling competition. Each month, we’ll have a €20 budget, and a set of rules to go by.

We’ll battle it out in a gambling war to see who can turn the most profit each month. Every single bet we place will be blogged about and you can track both of our progress on lucky.ie

We’ll also have a tips section, along with deals and news. We’re not quite sure what direction lucky.ie will take in the long term, but for now, we just hope to have some fun and provide some entertainment and *fingers crossed* turn a profit!

Rarely do i gamble… when i do it’s usually because i’ve stumbled upon a free bet or some sort of offer. But for the purpose of this site, it will now become a regular thing. I do watch and track a lot of sport from F1, to snooker, to soccer… so i’d imagine i’ll be sticking to those rather than horses

As for my tactics, i’ll not be sticking to any particular formula. For the first couple of months, i’ll be happy to make a small profit as i learn how things work and get warmed up. After that, i’ll be hoping i can double my money each month.

I know it can be done, it just requires a tremendous amount of discipline.

This was Enda‘s baby to start with but i now find myself going 50-50 in on it. It’s a pretty simple idea and one i know will work.

We comment on other blogs, linking back to topcommentator.com and analyse traffic statistics on our own site to show you all the benefits of commenting on other blogs. Our aim is to become the ‘top commentator’ on several of the largest blogs online.

Most big blogs reward their top commentators with link backs or special mentions in blog posts. Whilst it’s wrong to comment on blogs purely for backlinks, it’s not wrong to engage in discussion and have conversations with other people, even if you are ultimately only doing it to gain backlinks. You’re still creating value for the blog owner and it’s readers, plus yourself, so it’s a win win (provided you’re not talking about rubbish, spamming or going off topic).
