Uncle Dimitry Interview

Uncle DimitryI first came across Uncle Dimitry back in 2009 when he was promoting his newly created site, Udimi (formerly Safe Swaps). Soon after I joined Safe Swaps and have been a happy member ever since. It has helped me to save a lot of time and make more money online.

Uncle Dimitry, tell us a little about yourself. Where are you from? How old are you? How long have you been working in this industry?

I am 29 year old man from Russia. It’s about 13 years after I’ve started making money on the Internet, but I published my first site only 4 years ago. During the other 9 years I’ve been helping other people with their own launches. I’ve been a CTO of many big IM launches, but had to stay in the shadow due to NDA agreements.

I was making good money and decided to start investing into own business. That’s how I launched my first site. It was highly successful all-in-one blog automation engine.

What accomplishments so far are you the most proud of?

I am really proud of my Safe Swaps site. This site helps people with their list building, allows to save time and increase money they are making. Safe-Swaps quickly became the best ad swap website in the world and became highest standard, which nobody of my competitors was able to come even close to. I welcome everybody to join premium community of top people and feel the power of my method.

How did you come to learn about Internet Marketing? Why did you choose it?

Most of my past partners were internet marketers and I saw the power of big launches, when our high class dedicated server almost crashed due to traffic. It’s very impressive to see how hundreds of thousands dollars are being made just in a day.

How long did it take you to go from part-time to a full-time Internet Marketer?

Actually I never worked full time and never had a boss. My first job in ’98 was a joint venture. I did coding for free, but received 50% from site total profit.

What do you think it takes to be successful as an affiliate/internet marketer?

Successful people are always moving forward. Keep moving forward and never drop the business idea you’ve started working on.

What have been your biggest failures and frustrations?

My biggest failure was because I stopped working on one great idea. Later I realized how great it was. Never move to another idea until you finish current one.

What is the single toughest problem you’ve had to face, and how did you get through it?

I have big problem finding right people, until I found right person to find right people for me.

Is there anything that you don’t like to do, that you just hate working on?

I hate writing articles and tutorials. Maybe that’s because English is not my first language.

Which methods of promotion do you favor?

Joint ventures and ad swaps. Actually that’s why I’ve created Safe-Swaps.

How have you made those promotion methods successful?

The key is to find good partners.

What have you been up to recently? What projects are you working on?

I am still working on Safe-Swaps. There are many new cool features to be created.

Do you think anything particular in your past prepared you for this industry? Your education? Jobs you’ve held before?

Yes, since I helped many marketers to launch their products, I saw everything they do.

What motivates you?

Happy customers, who became rich on my sites.

If you could go back to being 18, what different career choices would you make?

I’d buy all these cheap 2 letter domains which are currently being sold for hundreds of thousands.

What is your favorite quote?

Whatever you do, do it the best way you can.

(June 2015 Update: I’m no longer a member of Safe Swaps and don’t do adswaps anymore as they are no longer an effective traffic generation/list building strategy. Cowboys came along cutting corners and ruined it for everybody.)
