Time for a Success Story
A lot of people ask "Does this work?" or "Can you make money?" - you may even ask can I do a site to do this. My answer is Yes. So I am going to share my success story.
Before I start, I need to set a quick basis - if you read my profile you know I am a Pastor of a small church (less than 50). I have been in the ministry itself in some manner or another for over 25 years, but have only been pastoring for 6 years, with 6 years in missions work before that. Through the ministry I have many friends that are also in these small ministries - they are unsung heros in my book. One that I have known for years has been working in the prisons of Mexico for over 20 years, and I have been inside the Mexican prisons with him. And yes, I do support his ministry. He has graciously allowed me to use his work to create a website - (win - win for both of us). (By the way - most of the proceeds earned from affiliate links and all sales I make thru this site I am giving back to the ministry - again my way of helping.)
I did go into this, not with the intent of SEO success, but as a possibility to learn how to do the following:
- get a successful website up and running for someone else that they like.
- create an e-commerce page(s) that you can both sell items and downloads on
Did I succeed? Yes and then some.
First off - this is not a plug for religion - this is the site address - Ok now one to the site address - if you want to see it.

Stats:
Created Sunday, March 22nd (4 days ago) on siterubix - Purchased and transferred to my own domain name on Monday night 3/23.
Google ranking per JAAXY (just indexed today by the way -3/26) - on 2 key word groups
- Lighthouse Holiness Ministries - QSR 37 RANK - 10 / PAGE 1
- Lighthouse Holiness QSR 227 Rank - 37 / PAGE 4
I know that is exciting, but how about this -
Income earned to date (4 days): $3.32 from affiliate programs and $49.95 for 1 download sold.
Ok, not earth shattering income - BUT IT WORKS!!!
By the way - or maybe - FYI - whatever phrase you want, I know we are nor suppose to plug/sell/push any item - but if you are an affiliate for something you really like, I do not mind giving you credit for it - just put both links there so I can choose which way to look at it. I said that to say this:
I really appreciate those that recommended the Iconic one Theme - I like it enough I went and paid the $49 for the offer they have currently on the lifetime support, however I hard time finding anyone with a link to it, so if you would like it, heres my affiliate link and the link to it without my affiliate link.
May you have a blessed day and future here at WA.
