Hello everyone. This is a slightly confusing case that grew somehow on its own and brought in a profit of $150-200 over several months on an almost absolute passive basis.
Investments and profit
- $0 invested
- 2-3 days of preparation and writing bots
- Profit - ~ $800 in 4 months
It certainly cannot be said that the case is super-profitable, but as a person who does not like work, I like the approach and implementation of these projects.
How did this idea come about?
I have experience in mining traffic from YouTube, namely in mining organic traffic. If you don’t know what it is, google it or you will understand during the article.
One evening I had an idea, is it possible to get organic traffic? As one classic said, I went online with this question.
Search for queries with traffic
In the search bar of the cart, you can enter different queries and get the most relevant channels/chats/bots/people for it. The bad news was that in English, most queries are cut by Telegram itself and it does not give any results. The good news was that nothing is cut in Russian. Drugs, sex, porn - whatever. I spent an hour studying and searching for the most traffic queries. The list included schemes, porn, drugs, and so on. However, huge guys with channels of 50-100k were hanging out in the top. For example, a channel with 400k faces is currently hanging out for the query porn.
I had a couple of channels with an audience of 2k people and needed queries in which I would bring them to the top.
I found one such, it was "boobs". Who and why searches for boobs in Telegram is still an open question, but they are looking - a fact.
In the top for boobs, there was a channel with a thousand subscribers and there was a volcano there. The daily number of unique visitors is 300 ~. We take it!
Bringing to the top
Everything turned out to be not as simple as expected. Telegram algorithms work in such a way that it is impossible to understand their logic. In addition, they are indexed either immediately or after a day, which made output tests difficult.
I tried adding descriptions, titles.
Moreover, now a little more traffic was pouring into it from the request virtual sex.
What to do with the traffic?
Here the decision on the topic was made immediately. I did not want to deal with volcanoes (as it turned out later - rightly so).
I decided to make a private bot that would pull shekels from wankers or whoever is looking for boobs. The dummy bot was written in an evening.
When I was doing this, I was skeptical about my idea, but I was surprised when the guys really started to fuck money into the bot
Expansion
There is still one more channel left. Shall we look for a request? Let's look!
My friend suggested the request and this request was hentai.
There was no one else in the top and I easily got to the top. Another 300 unique visitors per day.
But how to monetize hentai users? There were ideas to merge them into an affiliate program, but in the end, a second bot was simply made similarly.
Nevertheless, expecting that hentai users are more crazy, the bot was significantly improved, various dummy functions were added, a floating online in the main menu, etc.
So, two bots.
A week later, it will become clear that hentai users are not so desperate - the hentai bot brought in an order of magnitude less than the bot with a porn private. Different price tags were also tested, from 200 to 700, the ideal option was 300.
Databases were added to the bots that saved users for subsequent mailings. Once a week or two, a mailing was sent to all users about some updates, discounts, etc., which usually threw up a purchase.
We slightly increase profits and test the volcano
Bots were not always like this initially there were no buttons "Dating for sex" and "earnings online".
First, there were dating - they led straight to a dating affiliate. That's another $1-1.5/day.
In hentai, a button appeared for hentai games, which also led to an affiliate with hentai.
What else? I make a channel, upload volcano content to it, put a button for making money online. In a week, I got 50 subscribers, there were even clicks, but no money.
I didn't even try betting.
Fact sheet on the project
- About 20-30% of "clients" sent money again after not receiving premium access the first time. Only the second time they somehow modified the comment with a sidekick.
- The bot with porn was consistently banned once every 2-3 weeks. Restart - 10 minutes.
- The bot with hentai was not banned. A couple of months later, a ban arrived for iPhones / Macs.
- The time that was spent on this business was half an hour to an hour a week, on transferring money, checking the functionality and mailings.
What now?
About a month ago, I noticed that less and less money was coming. At the same time, it was noticed that hentai was banned for Apple devices. Somehow, I no longer cared much about this topic and so I just gave up. About a week ago, I decided to check what was wrong, but it turned out that other "thoughtful" ones had climbed into the top.
Now in the boobs request there are bettors with a screen shot at the beginning, and in hentai there are just some guys specifically on the hentai topic.
