"It didn't work for me, pretty sure it's not working out for everybody else." How about no? I'm sure that if you put enough effort on finding referrals, you will get active referrals. Simply knowing a friend that's interested in bitcoins gives you one potential active referral. If you don't have someone who's interested in bitcoins, then make them. Talk about bitcoins to them and tell them how much you've made so far.
You don't just post your referral link on Facebook and then expect someone to join you. It doesn't work that way. Others make blog about bitcoin just to get referrals. It's on you how are you going to make people sign up under you.
Has it worked for you though? How many working referrals do you actually have? I have a feeling that you have no idea what you are talking about.
"Others make blog about bitcoin just to get referrals." Really? Who's gonna read that blog? And even if someone will, what will keep them out of removing the referral link and go directly to the site?
All I can say is you don't have to be as successful as the person you are using as an example to prove that you're right.
People use Bill Gates as an example for success all the time most especially if the topic is about journey to success of a business even when the person didn't have college education.
I'm not really sure why do you ask me who's going to read the blog. Of course the people that are interested in that topic. If you have a blog and you don't have an audience, that's not on me. It's on you how are you going to persuade people to read your blog as well as sign up your referral link.
Your reply is just the typical "
If I can't give out a valid argument, I'm going to attack the guy personally and do a background check." The typical "
But can you do it, though?" is not really the best way to have a conversation with someone since you're not focusing on discussing the idea. You're focusing instead on proving that the other guy "Can't do it." so he doesn't have to rights bring up that argument. Which not only leads to fights and flaming but also makes the whole thing eventually go either off-topic, personal, or nonsense.
