While a lot of the success I've had on here comes from strategy, there is a large factor that could be viewed as luck. Of course, I have a strategy as to what I choose to post, how I word my titles, etc. There is a seemingly random factor as to what posts are going to perform well. I had no idea "Two Girls One Cup" would get as huge as it did. That post alone has made me thousands of dollars. It has slowed down dramatically however; I think advertisers caught on and stopped allowing expensive ads display on that particular Xomba page. I believe that is possible with Adwords.
The best mentality to have with Xomba in order to achieve great success beyond everybody else, is to think outside of the box. Sure, it is easy to follow the trends on Xomba. Or to look and see what somebody else is posting. But remember there are millions of internet users browsing the internet at any given time. As a Xombie, that could be viewed as millions upon millions of potential hits every day, every hour, every minute, every second. While it of course is not very realistic to achieve that. The fact is, it is an existing possibility. Strivvvvve for that possibility. While finding innovative ways to do it.
