About
The Social Millionaire is the website of a young entrepreneur raising a million dollars from social networks. This website connects consumers from all the major social networks to advertisers who want to reach this audience by keywords.
The goal is to raise a million dollars while having a huge number of friends from all the social networks. The million dollars will then be used to start up a few internet companies.
# Who is behind the Social Millionaire?
My name is Pat Hankinson; I am 19 years old and from Canada. I am a young internet entrepreneur and I have run several websites some of which have been failures and some successful. My websites have been published in a couple newspapers and one big-name magazine.
I have notepads upon notepads of business ideas but I have narrowed down my ideas to a couple that I am going to pursue.
# How does this come together with Social Networks?
Those who find this website will mostly be looking out of curosity. Some will consider purchasing an advertisement while others will simply add me as a friend so they can say they are friends with The Social Millionaire. All of my profiles will be promoting this website and will bring in new and repeat visitors.
# Why don't you take the normal business route?
By the "normal business route" I am sure you mean looking for funding and then developing the idea. Who said I am not :)
The Social Millionaire is more then raising a million dollars for me to develop my ideas, it is about building one big asset. You will understand more clearly once I reach my goal!
Plus going the normal route, usually means opportunity missed! Perfect examples are the Television and Music Industry fighting against moving onto the internet. Now they are slowly coming around to it.
# Is the goal obtainable?
Some social networks have hundreds of millions of users! If a fraction of those users gave a dollar, earning a million dollars would be very possible.
# How do keywords work?
The keyword system is very simple! Advertisers can pay any price starting at $1 for any keyword. The advertiser who pays the highest for a certain keyword will appear the highest. If two advertisers bid under the same keyword for the same price the advertiser who bought first will appear higher.
It is going to be a bidding war so buy early! Click here to buy!
# How much do keywords cost?
Keywords start at $1 but you can pay a higher price to ensure that you do not become buried under that keyword.
# Why would I want to buy a keyword?
Think of me as your sales staff! I am going to be working very hard to bring a lot of people to this website from press and my profiles on social networks. Those visiting The Social Millionaire will immediately see a list of keywords which will relate to your product. This means you will have very targeted traffic to your advertisement and excellent conversions.
If you are skeptical I suggest trying us out at a lower price and if you see good return then to keep moving up the ladder. Remember we only charge a minimum of $1.00 per keyword but those who pay more and act quicker will have higher advertisement placement within the keyword.
# Why are you charging is USD?
To simplify life I have made it so you make payments in the US dollar. It makes it easier for everyone!
# How long will this website last?
The website will be live until March 1st, 2013, at minimum. During this period I will be actively blogging so this website will still be seeing active traffic.
# How can I contact you?
Please use our contact form and I will try to respond in the next 24 hours.

Great stuff. Congrats on your success Posted April 29, 2008 |
Hey bro. You are doing quite well. Over $2,000 in two weeks. Nice! I'm kinda jealous...You should keep a laundry list of every single marketing move you made to make this happen. E.g: get John Chow to write about you, etc...You should also write an article about how you're traffic has progressed with each marketing move, etc...I'm sure all these things would contribute towards more traffic.
