I added a link to this blog from my mood message in Skype. In 24 hours I got around 55 people visiting the site, only from my Skype contact list.
That’s almost 10% of all the people in my contact list, which is a high click-through rate by any industry standard.
It got me thinking: If someone paid me 2 USD per click, which is not an unrealistic number, I could make 100 USD / day. And move to Costa Rica and stop working.
There’s a big flaw here of course - few people would click on a regular ad. And even fewer people have 600 people in their contact list. But still, it’s interesting.
