Why most People Fail at Making Money from Blogs?

2009-05-03T23:44:00.000-07:00

Guest post by Kaiser Mangampo

Everyone loves making money. Some people love blogging but only few of them are making money from it.

Most of the newcomers to blogging want the “magic pill”. They ask: ‘Tell me how to make money blogging’, but what they are really asking is this: ‘Tell me how to make money from blogging really fast with little to no effort put in it’. Doesn’t that sound unrealistic? But that’s the way most people think in our society.

Blogging is a steady growing process, a steady growing skill. The golden-profit era from AdSense is long gone, there is lots of competition in virtually any niche and there are hundreds of people who copy your content and get away with it; even make money from it. Face it - chances of you earning money from a blog are quite slim if you don’t want to invest your time in it.

It’s not your fault that you want instant gratification, instant profits and instant talent in writing. It’s our modern society on its finest – stimulation without any investment other than money; stimulation that comes easy and with little thought applied, these are things people seek for, these are the things that the people are taught to seek for. People were taught that it’s the way stuff works since the time when they were still lying in their cradles and wondering about the color of the ceiling!

Humans in our capitalism society are taught that you can and should receive instant stimulation right away; there is no need for long-term actions, for long-term thinking and changes. Take a look at any popular magazine. What does it offer to its readers? Of course – instant stimulation, instant pleasure – funny pictures, beautiful people, landscapes and other things that don’t require much thought.

The way it relates to blogging is simple – most of the bloggers I know aren’t willing to work hard to succeed. They’re not lazy. They just were taught from birth that they don’t need to apply much work to achieve their goals. That’s what’s sickening about our society – no one thinks ahead. But you should. That’s the way it works. You go out there, find a niche, write on it, attract readers and only then you gain considerable revenues. The time it takes for your blog to stand out may vary, don’t expect results right away, but you’ll see slow, gradual progress, which is exactly what blogging is about.

Upon acquiring PLR products, it would then be up to you to determine how best you can make money out of them. Below are a few tips you could use to ensure massive profits with PLR products.

1) Sell Them as They Are

Because most PLR products are already packaged with sales letters and images, you can effortlessly make money online out of them by selling them they way you purchased them. All you would need to do is publish all available materials on your website and you can begin selling.

2) Use Them as Incentives

Offering PLR products for free is a great way to increase the value of another product you have on offer. This works especially well with membership sites where people are more likely to sign up if there are bonuses involved. Before you do this, make sure that you have the right to do so by reading through the terms provided by the publisher you purchased the products from. As long as you have master resell rights over the products, you can essentially do whatever you want with them. That means you can give them away for free in order to augment the sales of your own online business.

3) Create Your Own Package

Among the very best ways to make massive profits with PLR products is to collect a good number of related products and sell them as a package. This will allow you to charge a higher price and make much more money compared to what you can gain if you sold them individually.

These are just three of the most popular ways to quickly and easily make money online using PLR products. PLR products can be used in many more ways to make money online and it is up to you to determine what will work best for your online business.

Money Making Programs - "They Just Want The Money"

2009-05-03T23:42:00.000-07:00

Guest Post by Carael Knight

Warning: This article may strike a few as being "too direct" and if this offends you in any way, then this article is not for you but a lot of times, when people are looking for a way to make some extra CASH from home, they just want the money! From lotions and potions, juices, urbes and spices, to all the different products (stuff) that is basically "stuff" no one really wants or needs', everyone gets involved in it for the money! This is the bottom line. They want something that is "cash driven", period. They don't care about the products they sell. They don't want to talk to nobody, they don't want to sell anything to nobody! They don't want to persuade or convince anyone. They don't have time to learn some nonsense training course that will take forever to learn and make money. 95 to 98 percent of the people who want to supplement their income and make extra cash need the money and they need the money right now "like yesterday"! They just want the money! They want CASH.

Money Talk 101: Lets Get To The Money!!!

I'll make this clear so that any person with any logic can fully understand this concept. All of these $50, $100, $200, and even $400 programs are really meaningless! That's right meaningless! The reason I say this is because in most money making programs, in order for you to actually make a substantial income, you have to sell a lot in volume. Whereas, with high ticket programs you can and will see profit with just a few signups! This is where you make some "REAL" money.

Another way you can and will make real money from home is through residual high ticket programs. For example, if you market a $500 - $3500 program, all you would really need to be in profit is 2 - 3 sales. Two sales at $500 is $1000 and/or two sales at $3500 is $7,000! This is where some "serious" money can quickly add up.

How To Make Money By Blog Commenting

2009-05-03T23:41:00.000-07:00

uest post by Abdulrehman Agha

While many of you will be surprised after reading this, but there are many people who are making money by blog commenting. If you want to learn how to make money by blog commenting, then please read forward. Well the basic logic behind it is: Webmasters and Bloggers pay people for commenting on blogs to get them traffic and/or backlinks. You must be knowing about the dofollow commenting craze. Well getting a few of those dofollow comments to people would actually pay you off.

A better way of making money by blog commenting would be to break it up into smaller tasks and doing the work systematically. Basically we need to do three things:
1) Make up a big list of dofollow blogs (at least 100)
2) Find your market
3) Create smooth functionality and Make Money

Make up a big list of dofollow blogs

First of all you need to gather as many dofollow blogs as possible. You can check the list of dofollow blogs and get almost all of the dofollow blogs out there. To avoid problems in the future you can check out the blogs to see if there are any blogs which are not supporting do-follow anymore so that you don't waste time at a later time and modify it the way you want. Now save them and make sure they are accessible to you whenever you want.

Find you Market

I will usually recommend Digitalpoint or Sitepoint for this purpose, although any webmaster forum would work well. It is advisable to keep your eyes open for customers on at least 10-15 forums because diversifying will increase your target customers. Next, you can also send general emails to webmasters whom you think might be interested in your service, this will usually get you some positive replies for people interested in your services.

Create smooth functionality and Make Money

One thing that will be quite clear is that you will not make a lot of money with individual comments and hence you'll need to make your work very smooth in order to make some real money by commenting. That is, you'll sell comments in multiples of 5 and 10 like 10, 15, 20. You might fix your rates on something like this:

-$6 per 5 dofollow comments.
-Get 5 free do-follow comments if order is more than 50 comments.
-Get 15 free comment if order is more than 100 comments.

That deal is fair enough and you can easily attract quite a lot of webmasters. Usually one comment should not take longer than 3 minutes to write, so let's have a break-down of potential earnings considering we get an order of about 50 comments a day:

-Money earned -> $6x10 = $60.
-Time taken -> 3x50 = 2 hours 30 minutes.
-Pay rate -> $24 per hour.

Not bad eh? Also note that comments can be written in less than 2 minutes and your orders will only increase with time hence making you even more money. The potential is in front of you, and it can be adapted to make some easy money which does not involve too much time. But, you will never make any money is your primary commenting service contains even a small part of spam, be human and your service will become more commendable and you will get more orders! More articles on this topic will be posted in the future, so stick around.

You can develop you own product or choose to sell other people products (affiliate marketing) or get the right wholesalers that can supply you the product constantly.

And then there is also search engine optimization (SEO) you have to take care of. The visitors from search engines like Google and Yahoo are often potential buyers. So, you definitely don't want to miss these targeted search engine traffic. You should make sure your website is optimized with the right keywords. This is called on-page optimization; it is the first part of SEO. It has to be done correctly to ensure you will get targeted traffic once you have also put in hard work on the second part of SEO which is off-page optimization.

Using Question and Answer Websites for Affiliate Marketing

2009-04-28T19:20:00.000-07:00

Question and answer sites are quite popular among people who are searching for specific information or have some knowledge to share. In these websites, users post their questions on any topic anyone could possibly think of and other users can post their answers. All questions and answers are then stored within the site. This way, those who do not wish to participate can still use the site by searching for topics that are of interest to them and viewing answers to other users' questions.

Today, the most popularly used question and answer site is Yahoo Answers. Among the most appealing features of the site is how users can select the best answer to any question. What's considered as the best answer then appears more prominently in the question's web page allowing other users to quickly view the most relevant information.

These question and answer sites can be very useful for people engaged in affiliate marketing. In sites like Yahoo Answers, affiliate marketers can simply search for questions that are related to their niche. This can be done either through the site's search function or going through the available categories. Whenever they find relevant questions, affiliate marketers can use their expertise on their niche to provide answers. Within the answers, affiliate marketing links should be included so users who are interested in reading more information will be directed to the affiliate marketer's site.

If you want this to work for making money online with affiliate marketing, try your best to provide detailed answers to questions that are related to what you have to offer. Never spam the question and answer site with your affiliate marketing information because that could be grounds for getting banned. For this reason, you should always provide useful information when answering questions. Be sure that you are subtle when including your affiliate marketing links and never allow yourself to sound like you're giving a sales pitch.

Question and answer sites are among the most useful free platforms marketers can use to increase their affiliate marketing commissions. By spending just a little time each day to provide informative answers to questions, affiliate marketers may have much to gain.

The How to Make Money Online Niche

2009-04-28T19:19:00.001-07:00

Guest post by Locke from Yourblogismoney.com.

The make money online niche is an internet marketing playground that is so competitive that very few are able to make it to the first couple pages of the Google SERP’s (i.e. search engine ranking places). The reason that seems to be the case is fairly obvious and can be attributed to the fact that when people learn about search engine optimization they typically tend to stumble across the information when searching for the term, “make money online.”

In addition, because it is such a competitive niche, it becomes sort of a challenge in itself to rank and maintain ranking in the arena to prove themselves to other bloggers and webmasters. The funny thing is that if those people spent their energy targeting alternate niches like cosmetic surgery, dieting and health and even saltwater aquarium keeping, they would be able to make money online at a much quicker pace then those that are struggling to make it to the top in more competitive niches…

People that have made it to the top for a highly desired search term are regarded as experts and rightly so because of the extreme level of competition. There are a few methods that I use on a daily basis in order to track the growth and progress of my websites. The following tools are free and can be used immediately and they include:

Statcounter

This is a tool that you can use to track statistics such as visitor search terms, daily traffic, unique ip addresses and even the locations of your visitors. It is an extremely valuable tool that I use on all of my websites. It can be found at: www.statcounter.com

Rank Checker by SEO Tools

This is a fantastic Firefox plugin that lets you input keyword terms and your website to track the progress and ranking places of your targeted phrases. It will save the results so you can perform your searches on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. This tool is amazing and I don’t know what I would do without it!

Some of the additional tools I use and would highly recommend although they will need to be purchased include: SEO Elite and Webcomp Analyzer.

The “how to make money online” niche is extremely challenging to break into and receive a large amount of organic search traffic. It is my recommendation to start with something a bit easier if you are hoping to make a living from internet marketing in the near future. At bare minimum I would recommend targeting a few other niches at the same time. More information about how to make money online and internet marketing techniques can be obtained on my website entitled Your Blog Is Money.

I’d like to thank Alan from MoneyMakerInfo for giving me the opportunity to write for his readers and I look forward to collaborating on future projects.

Three Signs That You Need to Rethink Your Online Business Model

2009-04-28T19:17:00.001-07:00

At some point, any online business owner needs to make changes to his business model in order to continue to make money online. This is because the market as well as the online business environment continuously evolves. If an online business owner is not able to adapt his business model to those changes, he will ultimately fail to make money online.

There are a number of indicators that you need to rethink your online business model and most of them are actually quite obvious. However, many online business owners choose to ignore them and refuse to act on those signs. To be successful, look out for the three most commonly ignored warning signs listed below. Once you notice them, reflect on how you can tweak your online business model to avoid failure.

1. Your Profit Margins are Decreasing

More often than not, online business owners choose to have a constant profit margin and only increase expenditure when revenues increase. If you find that your profit margins are slowly decreasing, try to find out why. It may be because your sales are decreasing or you are spending more than you should.

2. Your Sales Growth is Slowing Down

Continuous growth is the only thing that will allow an online business to thrive. If your sales growth is slowing down, it may be because you have saturated your market or your potential customers are turning to your competitors. It may also be because your old customers are no longer buying from you. Determine what it is that is causing your sales growth to slow down and act on it right away.

3. Your Response Rates are Dropping

If your online business model involves direct marketing or depends heavily on your email marketing campaign, be sure you track your open rate and your response rate. Once you notice that these are dropping, you should realize that you are doing something wrong. You may want to improve your copy or make your offer more enticing.

These are just the three most commonly ignored warning signs that an online business owner should rethink his business model. Once you observe them, act on them quickly so you can avoid online business failure and continuously make money online.

How AdSense can Make You Money

2009-04-22T06:49:00.001-07:00

Guest post by Mike Hammond

As a web publisher, there are many things you can do to monetize your websites and bring in a little (or sometimes a lot) of extra cash. One of those ways is Google AdSense, which is a great way for making money online. In this article we will take a look at exactly what it is, how it works, and how to use AdSense to make money online.

What is Google AdSense?
Google provides many services to webmasters and online businesses alike. They can help you to analyse your web traffic, optimise your web pages for better search results, and much more. The services we are interested in for the purposes of this article are the two related programs, AdSense and AdWords. At one time a revolutionary concept in online marketing, AdWords is a program that enables online businesses to advertise their websites alongside relevant content all over the web, in exchange for a fee every time an advert drives a visitor to their site. Those adverts, however, need places to be shown and this is where the partner service AdSense comes into play. AdSense is the other side of the coin, and the part that we as publishers are the most interested in to make easy money online. AdSense pays publishers that display adverts on their pages every time someone clicks on them.

How Does AdSense Work?
Google AdWords and AdSense are extremely clever technologies. By utilizing some sophisticated techniques, Google can basically analyse all of the content on your web page to show AdWords adverts on your site that match up with your content. For example, if you own a website about DIY and utilize AdSense on that site, the adverts will be targeted specifically at the DIY niche which in turn means more people are likely to find them useful. Simply put, by displaying relevant adverts on your website from Google, every time someone clicks on one of those ads, the advertiser gets charged and you get paid.

Easy Money
To get started with Google AdSense advertising and to start making money from your websites, all you need to do is sign up for an AdSense account. Once you have registered, Google will provide you with a small snippet of code to place wherever you want the adverts to show up. The adverts can easily be customized, come in all shapes and sizes to fill any advertising space you may have, and will nearly always match up to your website’s content with no extra effort on your part at all.

While in the beginning things can be slow, don’t give up! Sometimes it is simply about finding the right balance or the correct placement for your adverts, and of course you need the traffic coming in before you can monetize it. If you don’t have enough traffic visiting your sites and you want to be able to make money easily then you will have to spend time up front in optimising your site and adding content to improve your search result placement. Don’t be disheartened if you don’t make a million straight away, eventually most websites can become steady earners from AdSense alone if given enough TLC to begin with.

Evaluating the Benefits and Drawbacks of Free Web Traffic

2009-04-22T06:48:00.000-07:00

A steady flow of good web traffic increases the potential of any web-based business to make money online but many online business owners know that internet marketing can be expensive. This is why online business owners are so attracted to free web traffic platforms. However, free platforms to gain web traffic have its own advantages and disadvantages.

Apart from the fact that they save website owners a lot of money, some methods to drive free web traffic can help you increase other people's awareness of your online business. Some of them can also help you establish your reputation. Among the methods that will allow you to do this are publishing articles on free article directories and increasing your presence in forums. These will help you attract visitors to your site through your resource box or your signature links.

However, free web traffic also comes with certain disadvantages. Among the most significant disadvantages is the fact that you are unlikely to get very targeted traffic. To some extent, article marketing and forum marketing can help you target your traffic as long as you publish content that are relevant to your offerings. However, other free traffic sources won't allow you to do the same. Safelist services, for example, will help you gain free traffic but will unlikely help you generate sales and leads. Auto-surf programs won't help you gain targeted traffic either and, because you will have to surf through other sites to gain credits. These traffic never convert. In fact, they could get your AdSense account banned if you put in an AdSense site into the program. Your time may be better spent pursuing other internet marketing activities.

Keep in mind that it is not enough to gain tons of traffic for your business website. Your ultimate goal should be to make money out of your visitors and there is no way you can do that if your traffic is not targeted. This is not to say that you shouldn't make use of free web traffic methods as they can still be very useful to your online business. After all, pursuing those free methods can't hurt you because they're free. What you need to do, though, is combine those free methods with paid strategies that have proven to increase targeted web traffic.

By making use of both paid and free methods, you can attract a huge number of visitors and make sure that you generate sales and leads at the same time. Using both methods strategically will not only help you gain visitors to your site but also make your online business profitable.

My Plan to Write 333 eHow Articles in 3 Months

2009-04-22T06:47:00.000-07:00

Guest post by Michael-John Wolfe, Owner of the Residuals & Royalties blog

A few months ago I found the Brainy Money Blog, written by a guy named Josh who detailed an interesting account of his pursuit of making money on eHow. Josh set a goal to write two eHow articles per day for 8 weeks - equaling 112 total articles, after the eight weeks were over Josh had earned $146.22 from these articles. That may seem like a low number for 56 hours of work. (One hour a day spent writing two articles.) But here's the kicker, Josh's numbers will only increase each month from now on! Josh will earn at least $146.22 every month exponentially. So while his hourly wage might be $2.61 per hour this past month, this wage will increase each month.

Josh showed me an ebook written by WriterGig - one of the top earners on eHow. (Simply search “writergig” under members on eHow and you will see the massive amount of articles she has completed.) WriterGig earns at least $1,000 per month on eHow and her ebook is an remarkable tool to help eHow writers who are just starting out. This book gives you crucial tips for optimizing your articles for eHow and getting the most earnings out of them. Writergig - aka "Maria" tells us that you should be able to average at least $3 per month, per article. Obviously this is a variable and some articles might earn $10 a month and some might earn $1. But if you buy her ebook – you will learn the secrets of producing articles that make the most money.

I have decided to personally challenge myself to have 333 articles completed by July 1st, 2009. (Essentially in 3 months.) Yesterday I wrote 14 articles and my total number of articles is 29, I have 304 more to go. By Writergig's calculations - 333 articles X $3 per article should net me $1,000 per month in residual income. Even if I am way off target and my articles only earn $1 per month, at the very least I will wind up with $333 per month in residual income. If anyone else out there wants to participate in this challenge with me – just let me know and we can track our progress and our earnings.

If you plan on writing your own eHow articles, WriterGig's ebook is a MUST have, you can buy it for only $25 and it will literally triple the earnings your articles will make: Click here to view more details.

So You Want to Make Money Online

2009-04-22T06:44:00.001-07:00

Guest Post by Jeff from onlinemoneymakingeasy.com

Who doesn’t want to make more money, right? I get pumped every time I find a new way to make money on the internet. The possibilities for online money making really are endless. The important thing to do when starting out looking for the opportunity that is right for you is to stop and think of what you know and what your passions are. In this post I will cover two of the most basic ways to get started making money online.

The first of these is the most obvious and common way – Paid Surveys. It is simple to start and you set the limit on your earnings depending on the time you have to put toward them. I am sure you have heard of websites that offer lists of companies lining up to pay your for your opinion. What you probably don’t realize is that not all of these sites are the same. Some sites offer these lists for free and some require a membership fee to gain access. So what is the difference and why pay for a list? Well, it can be the difference between getting $.50 per survey and getting $10.00 per survey. The sites that require a membership fee include surveys that on average pay more per survey than the free survey sites. Most of the paid survey sites also offer a list of focus groups you can participate in as well as other ways to make money. Focus group pay by the hour and have the potential for making a lot of cash.

Making Money Online - Its All About Exposure

2009-04-16T16:57:00.001-07:00

Guest post by Carael Knight

Exposure, exposure, exposure. This is the name of the game on marketing on the internet. I don't care what anyone else will tell you. Exposure equals traffic and traffic equals sales. Marketing on the internet is really not that difficult once you have a strategic plan of action in place. Now lets break this down even further for a second so that you can have a better understanding of what marketing is. The first you must do is, find a niche or something of interest to you that you would like to market and make money online. It doesn't necessarily have to be your passion but at the same time, if your very passionate about something, in my experience, ideas comes to you better and more often.

The second thing to do is find places such as websites, blogs or anything of similar niches so that you all can network and share ideas. This will be like, "killing two birds with one stone" because it will not only boost your credibility, but it gives you backlinks to your site/blogs, thus producing the end result which is exposure. Always network with people, companies, webmasters, internet business owners that are in your industry. You never
know who can help you or where your next "big break" will come from.

Marketing on the internet is like "independent marketing" because you make it what it is. Whatever you put in it is what your going to get out of it. If you really think about it, its not your product, service, or brand that you are marketing online, its really "yourself" (especially if no one knows you). This website is a prime example of what exposure actually is. As you all know, this is another website owners site but since we share the same niche, I've been blessed to have this article on this site as a guest post. This is some of the techniques that will definitely help you in your journey to make money online. You see, by networking with people online that are in your niche, is one of the best ways to build exposure.

Article Writing Strategies to Make Money Online

2009-04-16T16:56:00.002-07:00

With the rising number of lucrative opportunities littering the web, it is no longer a question of how to make money online. The real question now is how to increase profits from various online activities, from buying and selling, affiliate marketing, directory management and of course, article writing.

Article writing has taken the craft of writing several notches up as profitable venture that writers can conveniently enjoy at home. The demand for writing services varies from informative articles, to product reviews, to blogs, to press releases and to directory list taglines. The subjects covered by online writers and marketers are encompassing, ranging from health, entertainment, finance, travel, to name a few.

Article writing as a tool to make money online requires more than tinkering on your keyboard to craft a collection of words that attribute to one general idea. Certain strategies have to be observed by serious online writers to ensure the quality and efficiency of each article made and published online. Here are some pointers.

Incorporate search engine optimization or SEO features in your article. Use keywords that have been calculated to be among the widely searched keywords by internet users. SEO is a marketing tool that you can employ to improve the status of your article or blog in search engine result listings. Successfully incorporating SEO will take your page closer to potential viewers, thus increasing the traffic of your site.

Blend in SEO keywords as naturally as possible. Writing for articles online entail efficiency and quality that should not compromise either the profit-generating and informative objective of the article. Proper keyword placement is not only beneficial to the look of your site and the quality of your article, but also in the relevance rate of your content. Including too many keywords will send your site and your article to the base line along with other spam-labeled pieces.

Bank on building links with other sites and blogs. Readers check the credibility of web content by the depth of its discussion. If you are writing on a sizeable topic, insert links that readers can follow to understand the subject better. Advertising links are portals to make money online while enhancing the scope of your article.

Organize and manage your site or blog using tools and plug-ins that you can get for free. These online features will do the publication of your work more justice by creating a pleasant and inviting background to pair a well-written work.

A Booming Online Business: E-book Selling

2009-04-16T16:56:00.001-07:00

Low-cost self-help e-books that deal with money making schemes and such on- and offline are in high demand these days. This is because people are slowly opening their eyes to the benefits that the internet and technology bring to marketing their products and even services. Also, these e-books help the regular internet surfer get ideas on what he can do to earn as he does so. E-book selling is indeed now a booming business today.

E-book selling can net you 100% profit compared to the 10 to 25% that you usually get from those of traditional businesses. The business scheme is likely cheaper than selling books which have been published in print simply because it’s free to publish such things on line than getting a publishing company to print your work for you on paper. There is also less barriers you need to go through when e-book selling as opposed to getting your work published by renowned printing companies.

Before you can sell your e-books, however, here are some things you need to know to market your e-book wisely. First tip is to fully understand the nature of your business and the e-book itself. Should you let your clients download freely as they pay? Or should your clients achieve a certain level first before they could avail of the e-book you’re selling? Either way you choose, you can be assured that this will keep your clients of being dissatisfied with the product or rather, the e-book. Second, you should establish guidelines on who is able to download or access the product. You can either set up a password for your customers after providing them a sample of your work for preview or you could allow them to download it and then ask them to pay for it as they’ve read a part of it. Lastly, determine the use of your e-book. Is it for personal use? Is it for business use? How about to help your target market, the students, with their academics? This will, in turn, determine your target market.

Clients pay for e-books using their credit cards. In selling e-books, you should establish a reliable payment method that does not compromise their personal information. This can help establish trust between you and your customers. Their personal information should be protected from those who would want to exploit their personal information for other means.

Where Does Making Money Online Lead Us?

2009-04-16T16:52:00.000-07:00

Guest post by Michelle Meine

Once in their lives, everyone gets fed up by their regular job. Millions of reasons can cause that -- from not being satisfied with the salary or with colleagues to some simple reasons like not feeling good about getting up early in the morning. It really depends on the person. Regular jobs are good because they guarantee you a regular, steady salary at the end of the month. Therefore, it provides certain security that you will be able to pay the bills. However, all the stress that you go through can sometimes lead to many health problems and many other things.

On the other hand, there is working and making money online. The best thing about working from home is that you are actually your own boss! You get up whenever you want, you do whatever you want. It's not like you have to do something that day -- if you think you can manage to do it tomorrow, then you'll do it tomorrow. You can take a day off anytime, without the need to go and beg your superiors. Of course, if you're good with time management, you can create more free time -- by outsourcing your work. You don't have to write 5 articles per day -- you can pay someone to do that job for you for a small fee. Of course, that isn't recommended in the very beginnings until you start earning more money, but you'll soon get there.

A woman from Ohio, who is working full time from home on the internet, when asked what she thinks is the main advantage of working from home, she replied: "I get to spend time with my kids!" And that's really true. Family people, if they're working from 9 to 5 (and especially if they have a second job) barely see their kids, and miss them a lot.

So, if we look at this from a objective perspective, where does making money online lead us? It leads us to being independent, being our own bosses, being able to spend more effective time with our kids and relatives, being able to do things you normally couldn't do because of the lack of time and many more things. If you're already in the online business, you know what I'm talking about. If you aren't, be sure to learn how to earn money online and start your online journey right away.

Tissa Godavitarne Acme People Search Affiliate Review

2009-04-08T00:43:00.002-07:00

By Chad Timms

Tissa Godavitarne Free $125 Commission PROOF Board!!!

With thousands of affiliate programs available online I decided to review the Acme People Search Affiliate Program since it is a program I have seen a lot of ads for lately. Tissa Godavitarne is the creator of this program. He lists his phone number and office address on his site and shows a picture of his house also on the site claiming he bought it with affiliate commissions alone.

He also shows a 1099 Tax Form claiming he made 2.2 Million dollars from just one affiliate program alone. He does tell us he spent $600,000 in advertising to reach that 2.2 Million figure. With so many Scams on the Internet claiming to be a legitimate business I decided I would try the Acme People Search program and see what type of results I could get. I also wanted to find out if Tissa was a real person and not some fake Internet name or some wannabe GURU trying to take my money or Scam me.

Tissa Godavitarne built his Affiliate Program around the People Search Niche. He found a market with a great demand and built his program around it. People Search makes up 1/3 of the searches done on Google & Yahoo which is about 20 Billion searches monthly. It took Tissa a $100,000 Investment and 2 years of his time to create the people search database. It costs Tissa $25,000 a month to maintain this database. Well, he has come up with a genius way for people searchers to get free results and then in return he or his Affiliates make commissions for these results. People who use the search engine have to register with MyLife in order to get the free search results and in turn MyLife pays Affiliate Commissions for these leads to the Affiliates.

Now this is not the only way that Affiliates can make commission. Also built into Tissa’s program are Clickbank, HD Publishing, Google AdSense & of course MyLife as I mentioned previously. So you have 4 Income Streams that are built into your Acme People Search Engine. Another thing I found out after speaking with Tissa is he will follow up with all those who have used your Branded People Search Engine with autoresponder e-mails for up to one year. This I thought was a great marketing tool by itself.

Now I asked myself why would someone share or give me a People Search Engine of my own when he makes 2.2 Million from one Affiliate Program alone? Why would he not just keep doing what he is doing to make money without sharing what he is doing? Well Tissa tells us this regarding that below:

“Because the more money you make with YOUR niche search engine, the more money I will make. Let me explain: Because my search engine generates such tremendous sales volume, the affiliate networks recently agreed to pay me "2nd-tier" commissions for sales referred by other affiliates as well. So in addition to the hefty commissions they will pay you, they will also pay me a second, smaller commission for every sale you make!”

So as you or I make Affiliate Commissions Tissa make a smaller commission or 2nd tier commission also.

One thing that I really liked with this program was the webinars that Tissa conducts (usually 3-5 weekly) where you can get on the webinar and ask questions and listen to all the other Affiliates questions too. Affiliate Marketing can be tricky to a lot of people so I was happy to see there is support for his Affiliates. He also has a support ticket system and detailed instructions on how to set up your Niche Search Engine once you get started.

Tissa has every user complete 3 Steps for optimized success:

Step 1: Sign up and get registered with all the Affiliate Networks so Tissa can put your affiliate links and ID’s into your Niche Search Engine to ensure you get credit for the leads and sales that are made so you get paid your affiliate commissions. (If you only complete step 1 your Affiliate links will only show 35% of the time.)

Step 2: He has you get your own domain name and hosting so you can Brand Your People Search Engine to be your own. For example I chose PeopleSearchElite.com & PeopleSearchLocators.com for mine. (If you only complete step 2 then your Affiliate links are only displayed 65% of the time.)

Step 3: In order for your Affiliate links to be showing 100% of the time when someone uses your People Search Engine to get their People Search Results you have to complete step 3. This is $29.95 a month after a FREE 30 day trial but well worth the $29.95 monthly if you are driving relevant traffic (those searching for people) to your People Search Engine after the Free 30 day trial.

After I finished all 3 steps to set up my own People Search Engine I was surprised to see that for the first 30 days Tissa would send me 100 Free Searches to my People Search Engine. Now this he told me was not just traffic or visitors but actual searches done on my People Search Engine. This he said he does for all new affiliates to give them a taste of what there search engine’s potential is for them to make money as an Affiliate Marketer. He has a traffic stats area in your back office to see when searches have been done on your search engine.

Now came another surprise though. I noticed that I had a credit for $125 for commissions a few days after I had signed up for Tissa Godavitarnes Affiliate Program. I thought how I could have commission already when I had not even started promoting my people search engine yet. Well, turns out Tissa credits that to new affiliates with his new Referral program. He told me that I would need to make $75 dollars of my own of bringing him more Affiliates and then he would pay me $200. So I thought to myself why would someone give me $200 dollars if I only made $75? Well sure enough when I reached the $200 he paid me via my Paypal account. He provides you with your own sites to bring new referrals into his program.

So I learned you get two online businesses with Tissa Godavitarne.

Number 1: Your Own People Search Engine where you can make Commissions from MyLife, Clickbank, HD Publishing and Google AdSense.

Number 2: I can make money from bringing in new affiliates to get their very own People Search Engine.

He also recently added GDI (Global Domains International) so all his Affiliates can now make a Residual Income Stream from GDI. And he is currently programming a forced matrix option so everyone can grow their GDI downline with his Referral program. This I believe could be a Win/Win opportunity for all involved and create a lot of Full time Affiliate Marketers.

In Conclusion I found the program to be Legitimate and I was pleasantly surprised how well Tissa had put together such a program. He has been very professional and has answered all my questions or misunderstandings through his webinars or support tickets.

My Review of Tissa Godavitarnes Acme People Search Affiliate Program is 5 Stars and I would recommend it to all looking to Make Money Online.

The 7 Simple Steps To Make Money Online

2009-04-08T00:43:00.001-07:00

Guest post by Sarah Johnson

I am sure that you have heard of the term “You need money to make money“? However I prefer this term “Use little money to make LOTS of money”.

Here are the 7 steps to help you start making money online:

Step 1 - Identify Your Niche
First , you will need to identify your niche. Your niche could be related to your job, hobby or interest in certain areas. For example your website/blog could be about photography. You should only sell or provide information regarding photography and nothing else.

Step 2 - Write Your Own Ebook
The second step consist of writing your own ebook. Don’t worry if you have not written any book before. I have not either. You could always hire someone to do it for you but it will definitely cost you an arm and leg. That is one of the reasons why I would recommend that you write the ebook yourself.

Once you are done writing you ebook, it needs a cover. Bear in mind that the cover should be attractive. There’s nothing worst then a boring cover. You can always design it yourself using Adobe Photoshop or you can hire an expert to help you with the design. Most of these experts can be found online. Just try googling and make a comparison of services offered.

By now your ebook is about 95% completed. Most likely you have written your ebook using Microsoft Word. Regardless of what software that you used, you will need to convert your ebook to PDF format.

Step 3 - Choose The Right Domain Name
The third step requires you to choose your domain name. Choose your domain name wisely!! I would suggest creating a domain name that is related to your niche. For example, my website provides the reader 7 steps to make money online, therefore I create my domain name as www.7stepsincome.com.

Step 4 - Create Web Hosting Account
So you have chose the domain name. Now it’s time to register your domain and to create a hosting account. Which ever hosting company that you select , make sure that the hosting company is reliable and has excellent customer support.

Step 5 - Create Website Or Blog
The next step is to create your personal blog or website. You can use Wordpress to set your free blog. They have a lot of professional templates and there is a huge amount of support from the forums.

Step 6 - Selling The Ebook
All right, your ebook is completed. You have also created your blog/website to market your ebook.But how do you accept payment and sent your ebook automatically to your buyer?

The best way is to set up an account with PayPal. PayPal allows you to accept credit card payments instantly and is free to sign up. In order to sent your ebook automatically to your customer you can use SmartDD. The best thing with SmartDD is that it can be integrated with your PayPal account.

Step 7 - Generating Traffic
Now, repeat after me, Traffic!!! Traffic!!! Traffic!!!. The success to every online business is generating traffic to your website.

Many people seem to think that making money online with affiliate marketing is fast and easy. Although it is true that affiliate marketing is an online business that anyone can start to make money on the Internet, people need to know that doing affiliate marketing isn't at all as easy as it seems to be.

To make money online through an affiliate marketing business, you have to realize that there is no easy button to become successful with it. It is imperative that you first understand what success in affiliate marketing entails. To truly make money online, you need to know what affiliate marketing really is and how much work it involves. Once you have allowed yourself to become well-versed with the ins and outs of affiliate marketing, you should know that there is still much work to be done to get started.

The first thing you would have to do is to find the affiliate marketing program that you can excel in. Find one that is not only successful and popular but also one that involves products and services that you are interested in. Once you have found such a program, be sure that you familiarize yourself with everything there is to know about that specific affiliate marketing program. You should also take the time to think about what creative and fresh things you can do with your own affiliate marketing efforts. This will help you to set yourself apart from your competitors and be able to make money online at greater amounts.

Once you are ready to begin, there are many other things you need to do. You must research on your target market and find out what keywords are relevant to your business. You must also take the time to develop your own website and find the best ways to promote it. Keep in mind that these tasks must be done constantly and continuously. Even when you have already launched your affiliate marketing business and you have already begun to make money online, you will still need to work. Always remember that your target market constantly evolves and you must always be on the lookout for the best ways to approach them and communicate with them.

Without going through all these necessary steps, your affiliate marketing efforts will most likely fail in allowing you to make money online. However, don’t let this intimidate you. Although it may seem quite difficult in the beginning, you will find that the effort you exert will truly be worth it once you begin to make money online out of your affiliate marketing business.

Successful Home Based Business - Why Are People Searching?

2009-04-01T21:31:00.002-07:00

Guest post by Christine Chow

We are living in a day and age where you are either your own boss, or someone's slave. For those of you working under conditions where you are not happy, you know exactly what this feels like. People seek to find their own successful home based business because they are wanting something more. They know that life is not just made up of clock work. Feeling like you are slave to a clock can be physically and emotionally draining. Working from home opens up the door to ultimate freedom and gets you away from your dreaded 9 to 5.

The idea of having a home based business has been around for a while, and is now becoming more popular and much more of a reality for a lot of different people with different job backgrounds. You can basically pick whatever it is that you want to do, and go with that idea. You must stay focused on your dream, or it cannot grow into reality. You won't get rich overnight, starting a successful home based business takes time and patience. In time, your business can indeed turn into a successful venture. Having a home based business is often very appealing for people who want to invest little to no money while still reaping the benefits of a large investment. Trying to start a successful home based business is smart.

It is for the mother or father who wants to stay home with their children. Not everyone has the money for the cost of daycare these days. It can be a real hassle for couples with numerous children. Daycare costs can add up to hundreds of dollars per week, taking literally over half of the family's income. Working from home at your home based business can allow both parents to quit their day job, and focus on what is most important.

Having a successful home based business is often flexible enough to allow you to stay at your current position while still working from home to build your future business in your spare time. Most people usually only invest a few hours a week starting off. It can take up to two years for a home based business to grow and become successful. The more hours that you invest, the quicker your business can grow. There are certainly a lot of people out there who are willing to invest dozens of hours a week in addition to their current job because they really want to get away from corporate America. Who doesn't?

You don't have to worry about the high cost of gas. With the way the economy is going, it is no wonder that more and more people are reaching for their home laptops and searching for successful home based business ideas. More and more folks are losing their jobs of today, and fearing that there is no future for them tomorrow. Something has to happen, and it is happening at home. There are so many different areas of business to go into when you choose to do it your own way. You can even choose to have more than one if you would like.

Starting up a successful home based business is worth the time and work. But do not be deceived, there is a lot of work involved. There will be times in the beginning that you will feel like beating your head against the pavement. Just remember to relax and be consistent. A business takes time, patience, and a real effort. The harder you try, the more likely you will be to able to succeed.

The Internet CEO - How To Make "Independent" Money Online

2009-04-01T21:31:00.001-07:00

Guest post by Carael Knight

Making Money If You Do "Not" Have Your Own Website

What I have learned over the years is that you have to do a lot of small things correctly. One good way to make independent money online is to market your products and services on high traffic websites such as this one. You can accomplish this by having a link or banner (some advertisement of some sort) to your website from their website. For example: Just say if a high traffic website is getting between say maybe 100,000 - 200,000 visitors a month and you took 1,000 - 2,000 (this is on the low end) of their traffic a month, the numbers will quickly add up.

Another way you can make independent money online is to promote affiliate programs. If you have a website of your own that is already receiving a pretty good amount of traffic, you can promote it on your site. But if not, then I would suggest something like Pay Per Click or promoting it on high traffic websites that are on the same theme like the example above.

Making Money If You "Do" Have Your Own Website

You have to build your backlinks if you want to make money online for the long haul. You do not necessarily have to be at the very top of the search engines to make money online but it is crucial that you build a credible website. You have to build a "buzz". One of the best
ways to do this is through building backlinks.

Making independent money online is not like regular internet marketing. It takes a lot more hard work and dedication to marketing on your own terms. This includes using your own avenues to get the word out about your business. You have to be creative as well as think "outside the box". A better way to fully understand what making independent money online is this, ask yourself, "if my main source of traffic was taken away from me today, what do I have to fall back on for traffic and stability? This is why it is so important to have multiple streams of traffic going into your website. Since having a successful internet business is all about longevity, making independent money online is the only way.

The Beginner Guide to Setting Up a Freelancing Business to Make Money Online

2009-04-01T21:30:00.000-07:00

If you are one of the many people who has planned to get into the Internet freelancing industry, there are some important things you must know. Outlined below are 4 necessary things you must have so that you can start your online freelancing business easier and be more successful when running the business.

Website

Even if you are just starting out with your online freelancing business or even if you simply wish to make use of bidding sites for freelancing, never forget the importance of having a website. Your freelancing website should contain information about yourself, what your credentials are, and what you are capable of doing. If you have a good website for your online freelancing business, it would be easier for potential customers to trust you with the work they require.

Portfolio

When starting a freelancing business over the internet, you would need to publish your own portfolio. If you already have a website, putting your information there is necessary. Potential clients will first be looking at this portfolio to get to know your skills as well as what your freelancing business has to offer. They would want to see your previous works in order for them to determine if your capabilities fit their needs. For this reason, you must be sure to publish your best works that exemplify exactly what you can offer to your clients.

Rates

Your website should contain all the pertinent information regarding what kind of services your online freelancing business can offer. Depending on whether or not you have standard rates for your services, you may choose to publish prices in your online freelancing website or advice your visitors to contact you so you can provide them with a quotation for the work they require. However, you must take into consideration that some people prefer to see rates and prices immediately rather than wait for a quote. If you do not have standard prices for your services, you can simply publish a price range for all the services you offer just to give your visitors an idea of what to expect. If the price range that you publish suits their budget, they will contact you for a more specific quotation.

Legitimacy

The World Wide Web is open to everyone and there are thousands of business websites that are not registered. However, it is better to have your business registered at least with your local government. Doing this will help you gain the trust of your potential customers. This will also allow you to advertise your freelancing services in your local newspaper. If you opt to do this for your online freelancing business, you will have more chances of gaining clients since more individuals would rather work with registered businesses especially for legal and accounting purposes. This will also help you develop a better reputation for your freelancing business and it will give your potential customers an impression that it is safe to do business with you.

Tips for Making Money Online with Cash Crate

2009-04-01T21:29:00.002-07:00

Guest post by Joe Soderlund

Cash Crate can be a great way for teens and adults together to earn money online. In this post I will talk about Cash Crate as well as the pros and cons of the site.

What is Cash Crate?

Cash Crate is a gpt site generally speaking where you get paid a certain amount to do little tasks such as fill out free offers or take surveys. These little tasks usually pay somewhere between $.50 to $8.00. Cash Crate makes money every time you complete an offer. When someone completes an offer Cash Crate is paid a certain of money, most of which they pass on to you. This is how Cash Crate is able to stay in business.

Pros

Filling out free offers with Cash Crate can make you a lot of money in a short period of time. The offers don’t usually take more than a few minutes to complete as long as you stay on task.
Cash Crate’s payout is $10.00 which is very low. This makes it easy for you to receive money from them very quickly. You also have the option to change the payout price to whatever you want. This is very convenient if you make tons of money with them and don’t want to be paid every week or so.
You only have to be 13 years old to sign up with Cash Crate. This gives teens a way to make money online. Cash Crate is very friendly and is easy to use.
Cash Crate does pay. If you don’t believe me type in “cash crate proof of payment” on Google Images and you will see dozens of checks from them.

Cons

In order to complete the Cash Crate offers, you must give information like your email address and sometimes your address. While this can be partially avoided by making another email address just for Cash Crate, some people don’t feel comfortable giving away their personal info.
If you chose to get paid by check, the payment takes a while to arrive. Usually 2-4 weeks.

Cash Crate Referral System

Cash Crate has one of the best referral systems that I have seen. For every person you refer, you get 20% of their earnings. You also get 10% of your referral’s referrals earnings. Another great thing about Cash Crate’s referral system is that once one of your referrals make $10.00, you are credited with another $3.00. If you are able to obtain enough referrals, you can make money just with Cash Crate’s referral system.

'Get paid to Blog' websites offer many easy and fast money making opportunity for bloggers in all niches. Bloggers can earn money by writing posts about products, services and advertisers website with these networks on their blogs.

To start making money with any of paid blogging (Get paid to blog) networks, we need to create a publisher or blogger account. All paid networks have their own terms and conditions for accepting new publishers into their network. Some network goes for blog that have:

Good page rank
Good Alexa and Technorati rankings
Some minimum blog age like 3 months
Blog cached in major search engines
Blogs in active state with some minimum posts in a week or month time

So you should submit your best blog in these networks if you are serious about making money with them. And when we think about the money we will be able to make by writing some paid posts on our blog can be as little as $5 and also can be as high as $1000. But you surely have higher chance of making money with these networks if you have a blog having good page rank like 5 or 6.

So go and create a publisher account on some of popular paid blogging networks like Payperpost, ReviewMe, SponSoredReviews, Smorty and Blogsvertise etc. And once you get your account approved on any of these networks, don’t forget to check your account several times a day. With this, you should check your e-mails on regular basis as some networks send notification about open or available opportunities in your e-mail account that you used while creating account on these networks. Here is a brief summary about top 3 paid blogging networks available today on internet:

Payperpost – is the biggest and most popular company in paid blogging niche. Best thing about this paid blogging network is the high amount of advertisers and thus lots of money making opportunities if you have a blog with some good page rank. The downside about this network is possibly the Google penalty your blog may have to face as you have to including some content like ‘Sponsored by Payperpost’ at the end of each post that you write for this network. They send your earnings on monthly basis in your paypl account.

SponsoredReviews – They have also large number of advertisers waiting for your bids to be placed. Login into your account and browse through the open opportunities and place your bids according to the amount of money you are willing to get paid for that task and according to the maximum budget specified by the advertiser.

ReviewMe – forget about this network if you don’t have a blog with good page rank, Alexa ranking and hundred of RSS subscribers. You can write up to 10 paid posts via this network in a month time. They send payments on the 1st of every month into your paypal account for the previous month earnings.

Make Money Online with Chattotext.com

2009-04-01T21:28:00.000-07:00

Guest post by Steve Blanchard

I was searching all over the internet for this because I wanted a way to figure out how to use my blog or other social sites for people to send text messages to me even if they didn't have a cell phone and then I could respond back to them so tcahhey can stay in touch with me all for a cheap price. That’s when I found Chat to Text. I just love the idea!

Chat to Text is a new service which allows anyone who visits any web site set up with Chat to Text the ability to chat by text messages to a designated cell phone, without giving out the cell phone number.

The company is based in Stuart, FL. Chat to Text has been launched successfully, targeted primarily at users of social networking sites such as MySpace, FaceBook, and Bebo but can also be added to virtually any web site using a simple script provided by the service.

Until now, texting has required both parties to have a cell phone, and to have each other’s cell phone number. The Chat to Text makes it possible for visitors to a web site to send a text through a window on the site and receive a response within moments, all without the need for a cell phone and without knowing the cell phone number they are sending the chat message to.

The launch of the service at the end of Feb. 2009 was met with great enthusiasm from the many users of social networking sites, as well as from people who want to receive instant chat from customers and prospective customers visiting a business website.

Teens and young people love to chat online, and love to send text messages. Now Chat to Text allows them to do both. The new service also enables customers to earn referral fees by telling others about Chat to Text. Each customer receives an affiliate website link that they can give to friends and family and get credit for each person who signs up using that link.

Some are content to earn enough referral fees to cover the $6 monthly cost, but many realize it is a quick, easy way to earn a substantial extra monthly income. Within days of the launch many have earned very large referral fees that are paid over and over again, month after month.

Features include the ability to turn the chat window on and off, set a schedule of chat availability, block certain people from the chat, save the chat history, and even customize the chat window with a photo and more. The biggest attraction may well be the affiliate referral commissions offered to everyone using the service.

The chat and text service costs about $6 a month for unlimited text chatting for residents of the United States and Canada. It is quick and easy to enroll and then set it up on virtually any web site.

I will cation that if you have limited text on your phone - then you need to be careful as you could end up getting more text messages then you want and go over your limit, but if you have unlimited then it’s fine.

Also remember that you can turn it off to stop the messages or block certain people if they are becoming abusive with the messaging.

Want to see how easy, exciting, and how to make money?

Tips for Making Money Online with Internet Selling

2009-03-26T22:47:00.002-07:00

Making money online through internet selling requires proper sifting of the kind of products you choose to sell. These tips on how to make money online will help you maximize earnings according to the type of product that you will sell.

Selling in the internet is made easier by online stores that offer free membership to any interested seller. Gain an edge by choosing a professional user name and ambiance for your collection.

To get a share of the wide market, choose products that are tangible and present them using substantial advertising tools such as clear photos showing multiple angles of the product. Selling of tangible products can be best supported by having a traditional, offline store or stand where your products can be displayed. Remember that selling concrete products will incur other necessary expenses for storage, inventory, packaging and delivery. Long distance deliveries entail shipping or airline expenses that you can put against your client’s payment.
You can make money online by selling intangible, digital materials. These include computer software, plug-ins, graphic designs, website layouts, electronic books and electronic magazines to name a few. Selling digital items online is convenient as these products are made and update at home. They are relatively easy and affordable to create, requiring primarily technical skills of the creator. Sellers can better earn money online since the purchase of digital goods does not require any delivery service. All transactions are made online such as digital downloading.

Whether you are selling tangible or digital goods, make sure to regularly update and support your online store with various advertorial campaigns to make your collection more visible over others selling the same line of products. Internet selling is a lucrative money-making venture if executed properly.

The Fail-safe eBay Business Roadmap

2009-03-26T22:46:00.000-07:00

Guest post by Simon Slade

The problem with starting an eBay business is that there are so many ways to do it. Should you join this drop shipping scheme? What about importing from China, seems like things are pretty cheap there? For the last 5 years, I've sold on a number of different auction sites, including the big one: eBay. I've tried drop shipping, I've done the importing things, I've haggled over liquidation auctions and I've used a lot of wholesalers. And let me tell you this: they're all great in their way. But, I've discovered that there is one particular route to eBay business success that works without fail. Everyone I've seen follow this method has become very successful on eBay. Why? Because this roadmap gets you living and breathing eBay and what sells there. More importantly, you live and breathe it before you actually spend any serious money. In fact, the idea is to start making money first - and then spend what you've earned to scale up fast.

If you want to start an eBay business, there are two big decisions you need to make upfront: what to sell and where to get it. Let's tackle what to sell first.

Strange as it seems, hundreds of eBay business newbies actually go and invest their life savings in product to sell before they have even tried selling anything on eBay at all! If you were just about to wire off some money to a wholesaler right now, then please stop! Take a deep breath, step back, and go back to the beginning. First, take a look around the house - is that an old microwave over there? What about those clothes in the box in the basement you haven't worn for years?

Second-hand items sell like crazy on eBay, so selling stuff from around the house not only helps you begin amassing immensely valuable business start-up cash, but it also helps you start to build up a picture of what works on eBay. For example, when I got started, I thought that mp3 players would be a good thing to sell on eBay. Boy was I wrong. The hassle of shipping them out, getting buyers to purchase insurance, accepting faulty returns (and dealing with cranky customers who couldn't find the on-button) was just plain annoying - although that could be just me. So I switched to selling t-shirts. Light-weight, practically indestructible and everyone knows their size - fantastic! I ended up saving hundreds of dollars in handling and support time. Point is: it's hard to predict these issues without any experience. A bit of informal selling would have saved me around $1,000 dollars in time and headaches.

Okay, so Step 1 of our fail-safe roadmap: sell some stuff from around the house on eBay, and note any possible niches. Step 2 is to follow up on those niches by checking out completed listings on eBay for similar items. It's possible that the niche you thought you had in a bag is just a fluke. So it's vital that you check Completed Listings to see how many similar items sold in the last two weeks, and how much they sold for. What you want to see is lots of green - ideally, about a 70% sell-through rate. You also want to see an average sale price of over $10, preferably over $30. This is because it's harder to make money on low dollar items when at least $5-$10 is automatically chewed up on listing costs and other expenses.

If all is still going well, then it's time to move on to finding a source for the item you have chosen to sell. For absolute beginners, the easiest and least risky way to start getting stuff to sell is to..buy it off eBay! Okay, that might sound a bit weird, so let me explain. The idea is that you'll just be buying small quantities of several things to continue to test the waters, and more crucially, to build up some capital. What many new sellers don't understand is that you need to be able to afford to invest at least $500, if not $5000, with a wholesaler if you are going to get a price low enough to compete on eBay. Wholesalers are all about quantity. You'll barely get much discount off the retail price if you can only afford to buy
20 units at a time. You need to be ordering hundreds to get yourself a margin. And let's face it, if you are starting an eBay business because of cash-flow problems, you probably can't afford to toss that much money around just yet.

eBay has a separate wholesale category (http://reseller.ebay.com/ns/wholesalelots.html) where wholesalers and individuals can sell in bulk. In fact, many wholesalers that you'll find elsewhere (such as in wholesale directories or via a Google search) sell wholesale product on eBay too, often for even better prices. So there's a good chance you'll get a decent wholesale price - and you may even develop a few useful contacts in the process. The other big advantage of sourcing off eBay is that there is a vast selection of smaller lots on offer. So even if you've only got $50 to invest, you should be able to get started with something. I did pretty well with a few small wedding cake topper lots from eBay just a couple of years ago.

Of course, before you spend a single penny, make sure you check how much the items are selling for individually on eBay. Obviously there needs to be a reasonable margin after you deduct your listing costs and handling expenses.

Sometimes, eBay just won't have what you are looking for. It's worth
checking back over a couple of weeks to find a wholesale lot that suits, but in the meantime, keep an eye on Craigslist and any local yard sales - both great places to pick up bulk bargains.

Another fantastic option is to simply take a stroll down to your local store at sale time and offer to buy up all items in stock, for a negotiated price of course. The great thing about striking a deal with a person you've actually met is that it makes it harder for them to say no! Chances are, you'll walk away with a bargain - and the prospect of a profitable future relationship.

Of course, these are only short-term sourcing options. The idea is to spend at least two or three months sourcing and selling in this way until you have established a good feel for your market and eBay, and made at least a couple of thousand dollars to invest into buying from a wholesaler and taking your business to the next level. As they say, you need money to make money - and now you're an eBay expert to boot! That's what I call a smart eBay business strategy.

How to Effectively and Efficiently Make Money Online With Article Marketing

2009-03-26T22:45:00.002-07:00

Guest post by Harold Loyola

One of the most effective ways of making money online is article marketing. It is also a very effective means to promote your online business and other sites. The process involves submitting your articles to various web properties that publish them on their sites and this allows you to build links back to your own sites. This then increases your exposure to both internet surfers and search engines, and thus helps in driving traffic to your site which you use to convert into sales, leads, clicks, etc.

Article Directories are not the only way.

There was a time when article directories were the best way to do article marketing. Today it is no longer the case, and article directory submission has become only an arm of the article marketing engine, whereas it used to be the primary means to do it. Don't get me wrong, it is still an effective way on it's own but now there are other equally powerful means to do it.

The sheer quantity of article directories, however still make it a viable means to get good relevant one way backlinks. It is best to start off with the most popular ones such as EzineArticles and GoArticles among others, as they already have good foothold in this niche. You can then extend to the other smaller article directories to diversify your reach.

The Web 2.0 Revolution

Sites such as Squidoo, Hubpages, Wetpaint, and others have opened up many opportunities for article marketing. With some of these sites alone you can already make money online selling products, either of your own or as an affiliate without having your own website. All you need is good quality content, a good product to promote and a well structured page on these Web 2.0 sites. As far as article marketing is concerned, it is also a very powerful way to get links back to your online business or websites.

The popular Web 2.0 sites already generate a lot of traffic and building your own pages on them allows you leverage the popularity of these sites to promote your own sites, through backlinking and RSS feeds. If you create content on these sites that are relevant and compelling your page may become more popular and increases the possibilities of readers looking at the sites you are linking to for more information.

The Rise of the Blog Networks

How do you get other blogs on related topics to your site link back to you? First of all, you will need very good and unique content, with information that other site owners like and will gladly link back to. Easier said than done, as it is not always easy to come up with great content on a consistent basis. This limits the amount of link you may get. What if I told you that there are blog networks that exist where members are able to submit versions of their articles to certain blogs on specific niches within these networks thereby getting one-way, targeted, keyword backlinks to their own sites.

A number of networks such as these have existed for the past few years, however a majority of them are only accessible to members who pay a fixed monthly fee to access the blogs in each network. Each of these networks can have from as little as 100 blogs to as many as 10,000 or even more, with a wide variety of niche blogs in their networks. This is a very powerful article marketing strategy as it can target a specific niche with highly relevant keyword links, and when used over various networks increases it's effectiveness. An example of such membership based blog networks is the one from Portal Feeder.

Promoting your online business or website with the use of article marketing is not hard, however you need to keep a few things in mind when doing it.

The best results come with the use of all these methods of article marketing together as a cohesive article marketing strategy. Sticking to one method limits the potential the areas that a particular method can cover. If you believe that search engine rankings, Google in particular rely a lot on the number quality backlinks to a site in order to rank them on their indexes, then it would be foolish not to utilize every article marketing method available as it will increase the number on links you can potentially have.

The quality of your content plays as much a part of your success in article marketing as the number of links you get. Using any of the methods above still require you to create content that is worthy of being read. Your authority on a specific topic determines whether or not you will get the most out of your article marketing campaign. Remember, you are marketing articles to provide information, and the search for good information is what makes people read your articles. Make your articles good, compelling and unique, make them stand out and you will get both search engine and human interest traffic coming your way.

So now you know that these are methods exist for you to use in promoting your online business or websites. If you need more information on the Article marketing you can read more at http://www.services.ph.

The Top Ten Ranking Misconception: How To Make Money Online "Without" A Top Ten Ranking

2009-03-26T22:45:00.001-07:00

Guest post by Carael Knight

"If there is anyone who believe that you have to have a top ten ranking/number one ranking to make money online effectively then tell me why there are a lot of internet marketing millionaires who are steady receiving sizable traffic and making money online "without" the search engines?

The internet is big business. There are so many ways to make money online "without" the search engines. In my experience, you do not have to be number one or have a top ten ranking in order to make money online profitably. A lot of individuals do not realize this but there are numerous of six to seven figure online earners that are no where near the top of the search engines but still bring in a substantial amount of traffic. But how can one generate a sizable income without having a top ten ranking? One secret is "the money is in the list". If you can manage to accumulate a subscriber list of say maybe 1,000 to 2,000 (and this is an extremely low number) to start out, you can and will start to see profits. An advantage of building an opt in list is a lot of subscribers turn into customers and then those customers turn into repeat customers. You can sell them one thing and turn around and sell them another. The hardest thing is building the list from scratch.

So how do you build an opt in subscriber list?

Well, the best way is, to offer something for FREE at your website or blog. Just make sure that it is something of value and useful. Having a subscriber list is one of the keys to making money online "without" the search engines. They even have services all over the internet that will provide you with the targeted list you need to successfully make money online.

You do not need a top ten ranking to rake in the kind of money that the number one ranking websites recieve. It helps but it really is a misconception. If there is anyone who like to challenge me, The Internet CEO, on this issue, feel free to comment on this.

Another way to make money online without a top ten ranking is to have lots of articles promoting your product or service. If you have some keywords within your articles, they will help your rankings rise but to tell you the truth, in my experience, it is not really the keywords in the article that gets traffic, it is really the interest of the article that gets traffic. Most people who search for things on the internet are looking for quality and value. But before they see quality and value of something, they have to see the interest first.

Receiving traffic "without" the search engines is what I call "making independent money". The Fortune 500 companies are no longer a threat to the small independent online entrepreneurs. We are becoming more savvy in our marketing avenues while spending less. A lot of the top ten rankings are held by these type of "major" companies but its only because of their budget. The major online companies may have a bigger budget but anytime you have a bigger budget, there is bigger overhead. The independent internet marketers understand this and this is why we have to work harder and network together to build a strong foundation.

How To Make Real Money Online Through SEO

2009-03-26T22:43:00.002-07:00

Guest Post by Courtney Tuttle

After making 100% of my money online for the last four years, I have become more and more educated on the process of producing online income. I have made money through blogging, affiliate marketing, and through quite a few other methods. I have created my own products and have been featured on sites all across the web. The honest truth is that none of it holds a candle to making money through SEO. It's dang nice to wake up every day knowing that you're going to get a steady stream of traffic on your sites - traffic that you don't have to buy.

Whether I get out of bed or not, I know that I'm going to be able to make money and I want everyone to have that luxury. I want you to be able to learn how to make money online because if you do, life is going to become a lot easier. I have helped a lot of people to learn this business and hopefully some of my insights will place you on the right track.

The first area where people go wrong is that they choose the wrong keywords. If you are choosing keywords that are too difficult for your skill level, SEO is always going to seem difficult. On the other hand, if you choose keywords that are easy, SEO will seem easy.

Look For Weak Competition

When you're first learning how to make money through SEO, you want to choose keywords that weak sites currently rank for. I personally like to take a look at the PageRank of the pages that rank for keywords that I'm considering. If they have PageRank that's three or less, you know it's going to be fairly easy. If they have higher than PageRank four you know it will be more difficult. It isn't that you can't beat pages that have higher PageRank, it's that it will be a lot more difficult and when you're starting out, you want easy wins.

Look For Value

Another area where people go wrong is that they choose keywords that don't have any value. If you can't make money from a keyword there's no point in getting ranked for it. A great indication of whether a keyword has value is whether advertisers are paying for it with Google Adwords. You can check the CPC in the Google Adwords Keyword Tool to find out how much the advertisers are paying. I usually only try to rank for keywords that have at least $1 for the CPC.

Look For Search Volume

The last area where people go wrong is in choosing keywords that aren't searched for enough. They don't take the time to check search volume for a keyword. The Adwords Keyword Tool will also show you search volume so you should know how much traffic you can get from any keyword. You can plan on getting around 40% of the traffic stated by the keyword tool. I always target keywords that have at least 3000 searches per month, usually more.

Once you have chosen keywords by following the three rules above, you know you have solid keywords and you can set up sites to target those keywords. Use your keyword or something close to your keyword in your domain name (or sub domain name). Use your keyword prominently within the text of the page you want to rank, and most importantly use it in the anchors of links pointing at your page. Getting anchored back links is by far the most important aspect of getting ranked and if you aren't ranking #1 for your keyword it's because you don't have enough links or enough strong links.

This lesson is super basic but I can promise you that if you follow what's here, you'll be able to make money online through SEO and you'll be able to do it again and again.

3 Essential Tips For Successfully Making Money Out of Affiliate Marketing

2009-03-26T22:42:00.001-07:00

As soon as you learned what affiliate marketing is and you think that you are ready to start experiencing and putting in your efforts into affiliate marketing, here are some tips that you may find useful in finding success.

1. Study Your Target Audience

Among the most important things to do when starting an affiliate marketing business to make money online is to know who your target audience is. Without this knowledge, you are likely to fail in your efforts to build an affiliate marketing business. Take the time to know not only the demographics of your target audience but also where they go, how they behave, and how they think especially when they are online. This type of information is imperative to your success as it is these insights that will guide you in determining how exactly you should communicate with potential customers. If you communicate with them effectively and through the right platform, you are likely to make money online out of your affiliate marketing efforts.

2. Be Transparent

When you start your affiliate marketing business, be sure that you are transparent with all the details. It is important that you build a solid reputation with honesty and integrity. Although it may be possible for you to make money online by tricking people into trusting your affiliate marketing business, that kind of business model is not likely to last long. Also, you are less likely to make money out of it. For this reason, you must always be honest with your business as well as the products and services you are promoting. People online are more likely to appreciate this and, consequently, they will be more likely to trust you in the future.

3. Choose the Right Program

Probably the most important thing to do to be successful in affiliate marketing is to find the right program for you. Do not simply go for the ones that have proven to be effective in allowing others to make money online out of affiliate marketing. Instead, find a program with products you are interested in and truly believe in. Apart from this, take the time to evaluate each of the available affiliate marketing programs in terms of reputation, products, services, and other information that would be relevant to your decision. As long as you choose the right program for you, you can be sure to make money online out of your affiliate marketing efforts.

Discussed above are just the most basic things you need to take note of if you want to get started in affiliate marketing. As long as you keep them in mind, you can be more confident that you are on the right track.

How to Make Money Online With the Internet Economy

2009-03-16T22:52:00.001-07:00

Guest post by Carael Knight

Did you know the internet economy is so wide open? I mean, it never ceases to amaze me how many new millionaires are created everyday on the internet. The income potential is unlimited, the audience is unlimited and the traffic is unlimited. So therefore, the entire internet economy is unlimited. The whole idea of how to make money online from the internet economy is difficult but simple. Actually it is both simple and difficult. It is simple because all you have to do to produce revenue online is by two things: have something to sell and have the traffic to sell it to. Now, this is where it gets complex and difficult.

There is no "one-set" way to market to the online world. There is no "one-set" way to get traffic to your site(s). There is also no "one-set" way to make money online. Think of it like when you cook "gumbo". You cannot cook gumbo with just only one ingredient, it takes a mixture of ingredients to make it complete. This is the same concept to internet marketing and learning how to make money online from the internet economy. When you think about the internet economy, think of it like "wall street". The only difference is, it is the wall street on the internet. The only way to make money online on the internet is to invest in strictly income generating businesses. The internet is the primary way to create the type of wealth that can be passed on as well as built upon for many, many generations to come.

Due to the how the economy is, a lot of people feel that making money online has been very challenging. But if this is true, then how come the economy does not affect those that are still continuing to rake in a steady, consistent six to seven figure income online every month? It seems to me that the only people that the economy is effecting are those who are blinded to learning how to make money online consistently.

Considering a Career in Internet Freelancing

2009-03-16T22:51:00.001-07:00

There are getting more and more people wanting to turn freelancing into a career to make a living. This is because getting into freelancing is a lot more easier nowadays thanks to the Internet. Through the Internet, people can quickly access to the freelance websites and search for hundreds of new freelance opportunities posted every day. This attracted many people become interested to move into Internet freelancing to make money online.

If you are one of those who are thinking about freelancing as a full-time career, there are many things you will have to consider. There are advantages and drawbacks to freelancing and you must examine them all before you make a decision.

As an individual engaged in freelancing, you will have the benefit of working where you want and when you want to. You need not report to an office on a daily basis and you can even choose to decline projects as they come. For this reason, you can do what you like at a time and place that is most comfortable for you.

Because of this, there will be no need for you to engage in any kind of office politics and the only people you will have to please are your clients and yourself. Apart from this, freelancing will give you the freedom to engage in other activities. You can take a class, spend time with your family, or even travel across the globe whenever you want to. Essentially, freelancing gives you the freedom of setting your own schedule and taking full control of your life while making money at the same time.

Being a freelancer has a lot of benefits. However, there are also some major drawbacks. Compensation is usually great for people who engage in freelancing but this is only true when they have a continuous flow of projects. There are plenty of uncertainties in this line of business. There may be times when freelancers aren't able to get any projects for long periods of time. Although freelancing can be lucrative, it does not provide the same stability as you would get if you were permanently employed by a company where you would receive a monthly salary as well as employee benefits.

Contrary to what many people believe, freelancing takes a lot of effort and commitment. Not everyone can make a lot of money out of online freelancing. More often than not, you will have to dedicate your time not only in completing your projects but also in attracting potential clients. You will have to learn how to market yourself and manage your finances on your own. You will also have to entertain potential clients as well as manage your relationships with previous ones.

There is a lot of work involved in freelancing as a full-time career. However, if you are able to manage your time well and you have the ability to do everything required to become a successful freelancer, there is no doubt that you can engage in freelancing as a full-time career, enjoy all the benefits that it brings, and make it a very lucrative opportunity for you.

Guest post by Dean Cullingham

Everyone knows that the best way to be successful in your chosen business is to promote it to as many people as possible. This will usually be done in the form of advertising. Either by posters, leaflets, newspapers, radio, TV or even good old 'word of mouth'. Exactly the same goes for making a success of your online business. This is no real problem to an established online marketeer. The secret is to try and reach a fresh audience who are looking for the opportunity or product that your site provides. But, what if you're just starting out and you have no money to get yourself started. What do you do?

Do not give up. Plenty of people have been successful even when starting with nothing, it just takes a little time. In fact the only thing that you need to get started is an internet connection, computer (obviously) and some time. You also need a goal. It could be to earn just a few extra bucks each month or to provide your family income for life.

Step One: Building a Website
The fact that you're reading this article shows you already have the right idea. Get yourself a website. Using your favorite search engine look for 'free blog site' or 'free website'. When you find one that you like the look of sign up and give it a try. Spend some time adding content and customizing it the way you like it. Remember that the content you add should be unique (do not duplicate or copy other sites). This will help you in the long run get a better page ranking and more visitors to your site. Once you are happy with you site you need to promote it.

Step Two: Getting Your Site Noticed
Not as easy as it used to be because there are so many sites competing for attention. If you create a site, add lots of content and update it fairly often it will eventually get noticed by the search engines but this can take many months or even years. So how do you help the process along? Fortunately this needs nothing more than a little time and effort. Simply start adding articles and comments on popular websites with a link back in your signature to your website. If you wrote and submitted a new (again must be unique) article twice a week and posted it on some popular blogs you would effectively have around 100 links back to your site after 12 months. This has two major benefits. Firstly people who check out the blogs may see your article and follow your link directly and secondly the search engines will do exactly the same. When they find lots of links to your site and the number is increasing they will deduce that your site is popular and give your site a higher ranking. Even just adding a few links will start the process off.

Step Three: Getting Your Site to Earn Some Money
This is where things get interesting. This essentially means selling advertising on your site. There are many articles on the web that can give specific details. The easiest to use are the 'ready made advertising campaigns' run by the big search engines and other organizations. Simply sign up and paste the code that they provide onto your site. You can also sell space directly to local businesses if you want too. If your site is interesting, has enough content and enough visitors you will soon be earning enough cash to move onto better things.

Step Four: Making a Living
This is generally considered the 'ultimate goal' for many online marketeers. Many fail at this stage because there are many (I mean thousands) of 'systems' claiming to make you rich overnight. To avoid the worst of these you will need to research the companies you are interested in. The number one rule for avoiding failure is:- do not spend more than you earn. This is the whole point of your hard work up to this point. You do actually want to make money not spend it. There are no get rich schemes. Steady growth is the key to long term success. If you use your head to make any decisions and not your heart then you will not go wrong.

Conclusions
There are people who read this that may say "this is too slow" or "too boring". This article was written to give some idea on how to start in this business without any startup capital. Remember there is no 'free lunch' here. All successful businesses take work. Here I am simply stating that in place of start-up capital or even an advertising budget you can succeed with time and hard work. If you do have some spare cash you can (but be very careful) accelerate the process. It is far more satisfying to build the web traffic yourself, you'll probably find it fun. Posting articles and joining forums can be addictive and you will learn more than you thought possible. Surely that can only be a good thing?

Best Wishes!

How to Make Money Online with an Effective Article Marketing Campaign

2009-03-12T05:36:00.000-07:00

Article marketing is one of the effective ways you can use to promote businesses and make money online. It involves submitting articles to article directories so that you can build links and drive traffic to your website and subsequently convert the traffic into income.

When you use article marketing to promote your online business or website, you must keep in mind that the most important part of your entire article marketing campaign is your resource box. This is where you can place a short description about yourself and your online business as well as a link to your website. Without publishing a link to your online business website, your article marketing campaign will be useless in reaching your goal of making money online. However, this is not to say that you should focus your attention on what you publish in your resource box as there are also some very important elements you must keep in mind when publishing articles to make your entire article marketing campaign successful.

For an article marketing campaign to be successful in driving traffic to your online business website so that you can make money online, you must be sure that every article you publish will impress your readers. Keep in mind that internet users are always hungry for information. For this reason, the articles you publish for your article marketing campaign should not just be well-written and easy to read but also interesting and informative. If you are able to catch the attention of your readers through the content that you publish, they will be more likely to click the link that is located in your resource box and allow you to make money online out of them.

Other than publishing a good number of good quality articles, you must make use of the right keywords so that search engines will index them appropriately and your target market will easily find them. Make use of a few of relevant keywords in each of your articles but be sure to use them correctly.

Once you have already written your articles and are ready to submit them to article directories, be sure that you are familiar with the guidelines of each directory you want to make use of in your article marketing campaign. Each directory has its own rules and you must follow them so your articles will not be rejected.

As long as you follow the tips above you can be sure that your online business will be able to make money out of your article marketing campaign.

Monetize Your Blog with Widget Bucks

2009-03-12T05:35:00.000-07:00

Guest post by Joe Soderlund

Widget Bucks can be a great source of income to your blog or website. In this post I will tell about Widget Bucks and how you can use them to monetize your blog.

Widget Bucks is a program that allows you to place certain ads on your site. It will pay you a certain amount per click. I have learned that a user receives an average of 25 cents per click. The ads they offer are different to the conventional text and banner ads that you are used to. The ads show products that are for sale. These ads look very professional and are very appealing (at least to me).

Use with Google AdSense for maximum revenue

Widget Bucks can be a great source of income for your blog, but it is best if used with another ad company like Google AdSense or Bidvertiser.. Combining Widget Bucks with Google AdSense ensures that your blog has a variety of different ads. Many bloggers have successfully used both to monetize their blog.

Referral Program

Widget Bucks offers a referral program that can give you a second way to make money. For each person you refer, you get 15 percent of their earnings for the first twelve months. While this isn’t the greatest referral program I’ve seen,. Once you sign up you are automatically in it so you might as well take advantage of it. There are many banner and text ads that Widget Bucks gives you to help you gain referrals.

If you are looking to monetize your blog and want another program to coincide with AdSense, then you might want to consider Widget Bucks. The good thing about this company is you pick and choose the ad and the location you want it. With Widget Bucks you gain another source of income for your blog.

How Independent Traffic Equals Independent Money

2009-03-10T10:40:00.000-07:00

Guest post by Carael Knight

Getting a website to the top of the search engines "on your own" is what independent traffic is. It is also what independent money is. Look at it this way, the way to get your website to the top of the search engines is by simply having more backlinks to your website than your competitors. Not just any backlinks though, they have to be "quality" backlinks. The search engines will determine what website will rank number one by these three key factors: trust, authority and the relevance of the backlinks.

But believe it or not, you do not necessarily have to rank number one and be at the very top of the search engines to generate independent money online. It helps but it is not mandatory. A lot of online entrepreneurs feel that they have to rank number one in order to see profit and make money online but this is not necessarily true. For example: you can receive a consistent amount of independent traffic from other people's websites and thus making independent money as the end result. There are a lot of independent internet marketers who's websites are far from being number one but they are still steady generating a six to seven figure monthly incomes online with ease through receiving independent traffic.

Always remember that independent traffic equals independent money.

Traffic building is simply a means of creating bridges (backlinks) to your website. It is really not that difficult if you can put a little time and effort into it. Now, this does not mean that you will not need help making money online. You have to have some type of network stream where traffic is transferred from one site to another. A lot of people would classify making independent money online is equivalent to getting free traffic "without" the search engines. In other words, this simply means getting traffic from other sources other than finding a website from the keyphrases or keywords people search for in the search engines.

There are a lot of independent internet marketers who's websites are far from being number one in the search engines but they are still steady generating independent money and consistently raking in six to seven figure monthly incomes online with ease through receiving independent traffic.

5 Quick Online Money Making Tips to Use Now

2009-03-08T22:23:00.001-07:00

Guest post by Jeff Wason

Are you looking to start a new business on the internet? There are a few things you should keep in mind as it can be confusing when you first start out. Here are a few tips to make sure your online money making efforts go smoothly.

1. Think about the market that you want to be in. Making money on the Internet always comes down to providing a service or product that somebody needs. The real key is that you're in a market where people are spending money so you have a chance to get some of it!

2. Consider the product that you are going to sell. Some people sell themselves and provide a service there is a need for it.

For example building websites is something you can earn money doing for other people. There will always be a demand for websites on the Internet.

Solving people's problems will always give you the upper hand when it comes to the product you sell. People go online researching information for questions they have.

If you can provide a product that answers questions you have a much better chance of turning your online money making dreams into an Internet income of your own.

3. Create an online presence including a blog. As a matter of fact the term website and blog are now being used interchangeably because so many people are bypassing the traditional website in favor of a blog.

Social media has become a big part of our Internet culture and a blog gives you an excellent chance to participate in it in multiple ways. For example things you can include in your blog include articles, graphics, audio, video, and so on.

4. Spend the majority of your time marketing your business once you have set up. Many people make the mistake of constantly fiddling with the design of their website or blog.

They also make the mistake of surfing the Internet and having a good time when they really should be working. You will never make any money unless you get visitors coming to your site and purchasing something. The only way to do that is to create a strong advertising and marketing campaign.

5. Focus like you have never focused before. It's very easy to get distracted on the Internet and constantly jump around from product to product. The real key to making money online is to focus on selling one product and make it profitable before taking on another one.

In summary this is five quick online money making tips you should follow to ensure your own Internet business success!

Where to Start

2009-03-08T22:22:00.002-07:00

Guest post by Michelle Meine

You've probably found yourself in a situation that, no matter how much money you make, you just can't pay all the bills. They keep coming, but you can't find the money to pay for them all. After going through an experience like that, naturally, you'll try to find a way to make some extra money. When you come to this stage, the inevitable question is: „Where to start?“

You have probably heard about that guy from your friend's friend who makes a fortune online. If you're not into computers and internet, that may seem a little strange to you – but if you think about it, it's really not. Many people earn money on the internet all the time. Some make enough to cover some extra needs they have, while some work full time online.
Let me tell you some basic steps what you need to do to start earning money online.

1. Learn how to earn money online - Everyone wants to start earning right away, but it's just not how this works. You have to take the time to read some good articles, tutorials and how-tos before you start.

2. Make a blog – Today, almost everyone has a blog. There are many free services that allow you to open a blog for free, and write. You should pick a topic that interests you (so you don't lose interest in the future) and just write. Don't think about the money primarily right away. It will come, believe me.

3. Affiliate programs – When your blog gets going, and you acquire some regular visitors, register for an affiliate program. There are various programs out there (use Google to find the best ones for your niche). Put them on your site, and just wait for the money to come in.

4. Sell advertising space – If your blog becomes successful, people will contact you and buy advertising space. You just put their banner on your site, and you get paid.

Of course, while doing all this, keep on reading. Don't ever think that you know it all, because things change all the time on the internet. Follow as many informative blogs as possible, get a membership on a reputable forum and chat with other webmasters, etc.

In the end, let me say one thing that you need to remember. You need to have patience in order to succeed. Success doesn't come overnight. You have to wait, and the time will come.

Get Paid to Chat at Yuwie

2009-03-08T22:22:00.001-07:00

uest post by Justin Vanhove

Yuwie is a new website that is a lot like Facebook and Myspace. You have a similar profile with friends, pictures, a blog, and your own customized layout. The difference is at Yuwie you get paid to chat and do all the other things you do on on your Facebook/Myspace accounts. While this sounds crazy that they would pay you for this kind of stuff it is really not.

Take Youtube, Myspace, and Facebook into perspective for this example. If you think about who build those sites into multi-billion dollar companies. It was built for free by everday people on the internet looking for something to do on the internet. All these website did was provide the layout that would enable everyday people to build the sites.

All Youtube did was provide an easy way for a internet user with no computer programming knowledge to be able to download a video and make it live online without having to code anything. It is the same with Myspace Facebook. All those sites do is provide a system that allows everyday people to build their website. What happened after that for each company was huge success with all three website ranking in the top 10 in terms of traffic according to Alexa.

What all of these website fail to do is share the billions of dollars in advertising revenue they make with the everyday people that build their websites. Yuwie has recognized that this business model is so profitable that they can pay members for their contributions and still turn a big profit. Therefore, Yuwie pays you for literally everything that you do on their website from watching videos to uploading pictures to blogging. You get paid to chat and do so many other things.

However, the real earning potential if you are looking at Yuwie from the stand point of wanting to make money is the referral program. Where most referral programs are one level deep, meaning that you only get paid for the direct people you refer, Yuwie's referral program is 10 levels deep. Getting enough referrals to earn serious money might not be to hard if you already participate in Myspace and Facebook communities. Yuwie gives you referral banners that you can easily place on your profiles and get referrals that way.

3 Reasons Why You Should Go Freelance

2009-03-08T22:21:00.002-07:00

Freelancing has been widely received by workers and students alike who wish to earn more than what they do in their day –or night – jobs. Freelance jobs range from online content writing, blogging, resume writing, graphic designing, video and music editing, photography, data entry and virtual assistance to name a few. While the need for a regular job remains to be a constant ring to each worker’s ear, why should others keep an open mind about freelancing? Here are some tempting reasons that will want you to opt for an Internet freelance job yourself.

1. You own your time.

The greatest contention of freelancers is the time flexibility that they can afford to enjoy while doing freelance projects. Most freelance jobs are given as time-bound projects with a specified deadline. It becomes the freelancer’s prerogative as to how he or she will manage his time to finish the project within the period set by the client. Nonetheless, a freelancer owns his time and can choose to work on the project in broad daylight, or at night in the case of artsy, nocturnal beings. So, it is a great opportunity for you to make money at home.

2. You can exercise your expertise—and explore other skills.

And because they own their time, freelancers have the freedom to explore other activities may it be related to work or not. As long as a project is done and finished on schedule, freelancers can travel and bring their work, without necessarily harming their livelihood. Freelancers of many expertise can also take on a variety of projects in one time.

3. You can earn more.

Freelancing allows you total control over the number and kinds of projects that you accept, including the rates to which you agree to do them. Freelancers can maximize opportunities form a number of employers offering freelance projects, thus enjoy the opportunity to earn more than an ordinary employee does.

How To Make Money Online Despite the Economy

2009-03-08T22:21:00.001-07:00

By Mike Newsome

If you're like me or the 600,000 other people who lost their jobs in January of 2009 alone, you are probably desperate to find a way to replace your lost revenue and take care of your family.

I decided that rather than let some corporation control my fate and dictate my life, I would take matters into my own hand and find a way to make money online with my own business.

Of course I had no idea of where to start. My friend James had been laid off since November of 2008 (he had been working as a waiter at a diner near the Ford plant in Cleveland that was shut down). He always talked about the people that were making a killing online with their own business but I thought he was just another dreamer wasting his time thinking he could become the next online millionaire.

I used to make fun of James when we would all get together to play World of Warcraft at our friend Steve's apartment but he would just shrug his shoulders and say – one day I will be making money online and you losers will still be wasting your lives away working for someone else.

Pretty soon we saw that James seemed to be doing just fine while all of us were scared to death about the economy. Every time they talked about the recession on CNN, we were glued to it and James seemed to be ignoring it, busy messing around with his new iPhone. Maybe there was something to this make money online stuff.

When I lost my job, I was scared out of my wits. You see my wife was 6 months pregnant with our first kid and I had absolutely no idea how I was going to be able to take care of them, not to mention the fact that the rent was due in 2 weeks and my car payment was due in 3.

Desperate and hopeless, I called up James and asked him for help. I told him I was sorry for making fun of him and would he help me get started.

He told me not to worry bout it – we had been friends since the 1st grade after all, then he introduced me to the site that he said taught him exactly how to make money online: The Maverick Money Makers club.

Maverick Money Makers was built to help people just like you and me who want to make money online working from the comfort of their home. It is a private membership site run by self made internet millionaire Mack Michaels, who has already made a fortune for himself and now wants to help you to earn a good income from home.

Each month, Mack teaches his members the most effective techniques to make money online.

There are many different ways that you can make money online from home. Maverick Money Makers teaches you all about:

Getting Paid from Affiliate Programs like Clickbank and Commission Junction
Niche Marketing
Creating Your Own Information Products
Writing articles and other content for money
plus a heck of a lot more

In this economic bloodbath, you absolutely have to learn to build your own recession-proof business and that is what Maverick Money Makers teaches every single month. They teach you exactly what works to make the most money possible working online in your own business.

What I like about Maverick Money Makers

1. Mack Michaels. His teaching is amazing. The guy makes incredible, easy to follow videos that show you step by step: how to get started, what to do to make money online and the online scams you should avoid.

2. It's super easy for anyone even a complete newbie like me to follow exactly what he says so we can duplicate his success.

3. I love the full time support and the monthly training (as a matter of fact they make new videos all the time so the site never gets old).

What I did not like about Maverick Money Makers

I may sound stupid for saying this but there is not one thing bad I can say about Maverick Money Makers. I followed Macks advice and within 3 weeks I was pulling down 1000.00 a week – thats more than I ever made waiting tables. In my second month, I am now up to 2000 a week and I have no plans to stop.

My family will be well taken care of forever now! Thanks to Maverick Money Makers I am completely free and independent.

Conclusion

Maverick Money Makers rocks! I give it 10 stars out of 10. If you want to secure your own freedom, I highly recommend you join right now!

Acting vs. Blogging

2009-03-08T22:20:00.002-07:00

This guest post was written by Michael-John Wolfe. Michael is an actor. In the past few years, he has completed supporting roles opposite Tom Cruise (Collateral), Brad Pitt (Mr. and Mrs. Smith) and Tim Allen (The Shaggy Dog). When Michael is free, he will blog. He blog about topics like residuals income and make money online.

For the past five years I have been in Hollywood trying to make a living as a working actor. At first, I had dreams and aspirations of being the next Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise or George Clooney. I set the bar high, yet I started at the lowest point possible – I was doing non-union background work for $54 for eight hours of work. I hardly cracked $15,000 my first year in L.A. and times were lean, I was living in a small 500 square foot apartment and I barely had enough money for meals. I slowly climbed the ladder and got into SAG and AFTRA – the two main actor’s unions. My earnings began to rise and I was fortunate to get some small one line roles in movies like Collateral with Tom Cruise and Mr. and Mrs. Smith with. (you can find my name in the credits of both of these films.) After that, I started booking principal roles in commercials and the last few years my earnings have climbed over $80,000 per year. (I am not boasting – just letting you know that it was a tough climb and the fact that I stuck with acting, rewarded me in the end.) I may never reach Brad Pitt status (or even Howie Mandell status!) but acting has been very good to me.

The funny thing is, I just started my Residuals and Royalties blog a month ago and I realized that the blogging world is very similar to the acting world. My blog is just starting to get some traffic, but I feel like I did when I was starting out in acting and living in that 500 square foot apartment. You might say that Alan Liew, Carl Ocab and Grizzly are the Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise and George Clooneys of the blogging world. (maybe slightly less handsome however) Of course, I would love to be on page one for “make money online” – but the task seems as tough as becoming a famous actor. So my intentions are to work diligently at my blog and post quality content each day in hopes that my blog can create a nice source of supplemental income for me and my family.

While you may never see me at the Oscars on the red carpet, maybe someday I will share page one with Alan, Carl and Griz!

How To Survive The Recession In A Fierce Economy

2009-03-08T22:20:00.001-07:00

Guest post by Carael Knight

The way to survive the recession is to simply have multiple streams of income. There is no other way around this. The reason behind why I say this is the job market is terrible. A lot of the Fortune 500 companies are laying people off left and right. So where is the stability? Where is the security? Nowadays, there is no such thing as "job security" or "job stability". But there is a such thing as "financial freedom". Most people do not believe there is a such thing as financial freedom because they either don't have it or they are too busy looking for job security.

What is the alternative?

This is the main reason why a lot of people are deeply in need of starting there own business. The American society is looking for multiple ways of making money or supplementing their income. We all know that working a nine to five job, Monday through Friday does not pay the bills sufficiently. Even if it does pay the bills, what money do you have left over??? We are starting to live in a fierce financial world where the economy is terrible. But even though the economy may be at an all time low, are we suppose to "throw in the towel"? Do we give up? No, it simply means that we must work harder towards finding other means of making money and generating income.

Rich People And The Online Economy

If you noticed, some of the most richest people in the world are the ones that actually have multiple streams of income online. They are quietly raking in a six to seven figure income a month. It seems like they are making money hand over fist, like it "grows on trees", right? So, what are they doing that is constantly keeping money flowing for them while others seem to stay broke and are steady struggling? Well, all they do is have multiple streams of income. It is really not that hard as people proclaim it to be or seem.

The multiple streams of income program that helped me to survive the recession. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to supplement there income and generate multiple streams of income.

Uncovering Untapped Niches

2009-03-08T22:19:00.000-07:00

Being a successful internet marketer requires that you find and sell to markets that are not been saturated. Many people that do business online, especially when they are just starting out, attempt to break into markets that are too competitive. Some common ones include internet marketing, financial niches (insurance, loans, credit cards, etc.) and/or computer software (anti-virus, anti-spam, etc.). These markets pay well and the amount of people looking to purchase them is huge. However, it is not until after they have wasted time, effort and money, do most people realize that unless you have a lot of money to advertise or have fantastic SEO skills, then these niches are best left to more experienced marketers. To avoid this scenario, it is much easier and simpler to go after niches that aren’t ultra competitive.

You may be thinking that yeah, this sounds great, but how do I find these little known niches? Well, I’m going to tell you. Don’t worry you won’t have to spend any money to uncover them. However, you will need to invest some time, effort and use the right tools. Below, is exactly how I find those niches that aren’t overly competitive but still have people looking to spend money.

1. Sign up for an account at AffilateAlert.com. There are two editions. The standard edition is free. The Professional one is not. Both will alert you every time a new product is added to the Clickbank Marketplace. You will be alerted two weeks after a product has been introduced with the Standard edition, while you will be notified immediately with the Professional edition.

Knowing what new products are added to Clickbank will give you a jump start on other affiliates. A lot of times you will find some fantastic products before anyone else does. You will also discover some products that are not necessarily main stream but which can still make you a lot of money. In most cases, authors spend a lot of time figuring if they have a market for the product. They won’t waste their time and/or money on developing a product that no one wants. To make sure, do some additional research to ensure that a particular niche is profitable.

2. Take 30 minutes everyday and look through the Clickbank marketplace. Now, this will require some grunt work. However, it can pay off big. Look through the categories and sub-categories that aren’t incredibly popular with affiliate marketers. Remember, when I told you that most people start off trying to promote the same products. It’s true. They will go after the most popular markets and leave the lesser known ones alone. If you can figure out what these untapped but still lucrative niches are, you can make some good money pretty quickly.

3. Go to Wordtracker or your favorite keyword research tool and type in the following phrases (not all at once of course), “How to,” “Buy,” and “Natural Remedies.” You will find that you get a robust list of potential products. Now, the only thing that you need to do is go to the Clickbank marketplace and see if there is a good product to promote.

Here are three simple ways to discover untapped niches. Remember, the most difficult way to try to make money online is to jump into competitive niches. In most cases, you will end up disappointed and your pockets a little lighter due to unsuccessful advertising campaigns. This is a common mistake that many new internet marketers. Don’t let this be you. Instead, find markets that not too many people have entered. This will give you the best opportunity to have some success. While there is no guarantee that a certain product will be a winner. There are number of factors that will determine whether or not a product sells. However, you have a far greater chance of success, especially if you don’t have to worry about high pay-per-click costs, with smaller more obscure niches.

Bidvertiser: A Smart Alternative to Google Adsense

2009-03-08T22:17:00.001-07:00

Guest post by Joe Soderlund

We all know that placing ads on your blog can make you a substantial amount of money. When it comes to choosing the company most people choose Google Adsense because of its popularity and consistency. However, I have found that Bidvertiser is also a good alternative to Google Adsense.

Reasons I like Bidvertiser

Bidvertiser's payout is only $10 which is a lot better than Adsense's $100. This allows people to receive payment more frequently. Many blogs take a while to generate $100 dollars in earnings so $10 looks more friendly is easier to achieve.
Bidvertiser pays by check. For some people who don't have Paypal like me, this is a huge advantage because it allows me to monetize my blog.
For people who have blogs or websites that pertain to making money online, Bidvertiser is for you. I have learned that for these kinds of sites, Bidvertiser outperforms Google Adsense by a fair amount.

Bidvertisers pay per click is around 10-15 cents for me. There are both text ads and banner ads of all sizes. Another cool thing about Bidvertiser is the ability to accept and decline ads that you want on your site. If you see an ad you don't particularly want on your blog, then you can just decline it.

Using Adsense and Bidvertiser

There are a number of people who use Bidvertiser along with Google Adsense. This is a great idea because it diversifies the ads and gives you two places to make money from. From what I have heard and read, the results are pretty good for this.

Referral Program

When a user signs as an advertiser and first spends $10, we'll credit your account with $5. When that same advertiser spends $50, you will be credited with an additional $20.

When a user signs as a publisher and first earns $10, we'll credit your account with $10. When that same publisher earns $50, you will be credited with an additional $40.

Bidvertiser's referral program is great, but so far I haven't had much luck with it.

If you have had problems with Adsense you might want to consider Bidvertiser. It's reliable and can really help your blog make money.

What Is The Best Way To Make Money Online?

2009-03-08T22:16:00.002-07:00

Guest post by Andrew Hansen from http://crapcuttermarketing.com

I often receive the question:

"What's the BEST method of making money online?" or "What's the best way to get to $X,000 per month online?"

If you're really looking to make money online and you're just getting started, it seems like a reasonable question - after all, you don't want to waste your time on something that's NOT the best method, do you? You want the best, fastest, easiest method to make the largest amount of money online possible.

If you've ever asked that question, let me give you an important piece of advice... There is no BEST way to make money online. There are SO many ways you can make money and build a business on the internet and they are all very different disciplines. If you're just getting into this stuff, you're going to be coming across a whole lot of these methods and all of them will be telling you they're the best... There's eBay, Pay Per Click Marketing, Affiliate Marketing, Writing Content, Surveys, Niche Marketing, Blogging, Article Marketing, Adsense, List Building, Product Creation, JV Partnerships, Ebooks and so many more.

So how does knowing this help you? It helps you because it lets you change your question from... "What's the best way to make money online?" to "What's the best way for ME to make money online?"

Already you're on a much better track. How do you know what's the best way for YOU to make money online? You need to know about yourself. Each of the methods above require specific skills, attitudes, and strategies, some of which you will be good at and enjoy, others you'll be terrible at and hate.

Here's an example:

Blogging is a great way to make money online. But to make money with blogging, you need to do a lot of writing. You need to write content, write articles to promote your site, write guest posts on other blogs, and more. If you aren't good at writing (and you don't have money to outsource) blogging may not be the best option for you to choose in making money online.

Pay Per Click marketing is a great way to make money online. But to make money with pay per click marketing, you have to spend alot of time researching affiliate programs, and setting up ads, with minimal contact with other people. If you're a people person, you're soon going to get bored and quit sabotaging your own success with this method.

The best thing to do as someone starting out in online marketing is get a SMALL sampling of many of the different methods available for making money online in search of one that really fits with you.

Then when you find something that you feel like you're good at and you enjoy (and here's the key)

You STICK WITH IT!

The only other mistake you can make than choosing the wrong method for you, is choosing the right method, and then changing your mind among the methods so many times that you never make any progress on any method!

But that's the subject of a whole new post.

Finally, here are some guidelines for finding what method could work best for you.

If you already have a great deal of knowledge in any particular field (I mean ANY field) you could be sitting on a million dollar information business.

If you're a great writer and love expressing your thoughts and knowledge, you could be the next super blogger and make a fortune.

If you love research, spotting opportunities, and "trading" (buying low selling high) you might find PPC marketing fun.

If you have existing experience with Ebay - you might find it easy to transition a hobby into a full Ebay business.

And of course there are many more.

By finding the method that is right for you, you increase your chance of success at making money online by 100% straight off the bat. It could take time. Some people take years to find what clicks with them online, but when you find it, it won't be long before you see the money flow.

The PPC Classroom Course Finally Re-Launched - Space is Limited

2009-03-08T22:16:00.001-07:00

By Kevin Cleveland

If you are looking for ways to make money online. You are where you need to be right now. I have been in the same position you are in less than a year ago. I have been through getting Programs that were over hyped, didn't teach you what you needed to know, or like 99% of them, just flat out old information. When I signed up for this course I though well I will give it a try. The more I saw I realized I was in the right place. This is where the money is on the internet!

I am talking about affiliate marketing. The amount of money you can make doing this is astounding. You don't have the hassle of having to compete with power sellers on eBay or shipping out the product. When I joined this class I was a "newbie". I can say now that I am well on my way to making a HUGE income online. These are the right people to teach you. They can teach you step by step how to find a product to promote and how to get online traffic to buy that product. Merchants online would rather pay affiliates to go out and market for them than hire a whole team on the payroll. You work for commissions and the more you make, the more they make.

The PPC Classroom course was actually opened last year but it was closed pretty fast as a lot of people rushed to get in, but I was just informed by Anik Singal, the creator of PPC Classroom, that he has re-opened his PPC course. This time he made the course free to anyone. Yes, you heard it right, the PPC Classroom course that helped a lot of people make a living online is now available free to you. Whether you are a "newbie" like I was, a struggling affiliate or an experienced marketer, this course is for you. Here's the link to get PPC Classroom for free:

Click Here to Give it a Try

If you don't know yet, many people who signed up the PPC Classroom last year were actually a complete newbie. After four months in PPC classroom, A sampling of students are now making a combined total of over $4 million per year, and yes even in a down economy.

Although this is a course on affiliate marketing, if you are a business person trying to learn how to promote your own business or product online, they can teach you how to draw traffic to your website. You can market anything you wish after you learn. You can develop the ability to figure out what is hot, get a campaign set up and launch it. After you learn how to do this, you can choose whatever you like to do and become a huge presence online. Given the way they teach this, you also have the ability to let the advertising campaigns run on autopilot while you have the time to do whatever you wish.

Click Here to Get Started

A basic rule of thumb is, put a dollar in and get a dollar back every day. Who wouldn't want an investment like that. I'm not going to say this is going to happen overnight because it takes dedication. If you tried to figure this out yourself, it would take a long time and many people wouldn't make it. This course can cut that time down tremendously. I have been with them a little over 4 months now and I'm well on my way. This will be the best decision you could make! I hope to see you there. -PPC CLassroom-

5 Google Adsense Alternatives

2009-03-08T22:13:00.002-07:00

Guest post by Justin Vanhove

Google Adsense is a great tool that webmasters can use to make money with their website. They way it works is you copy and paste a code on to your web pages that Google supplies you with. Then google searches its database of ads and posts them to the web pages you put the code on. You get paid each time someone clicks on that ad. Google and the publisher split the revenue It is referred to as pay per click and is a great way to make money with a website.

However, google is no longer the only pay per click ad network that webmasters can use to make money from clicks of visitors on their site. Google was the first to come up with this method, but recently there has been a rise in ad networks like this. Many webmasters are switching to a different ad network and seeing surprising results. They are earning more money per click.

This is actually not surprising seeing that Google announced last year that it was cutting back the percentage publishers earned per click(translates to Google keeps more of the profit share). This results in publishers making less money since they only get paid when someone clicks. This is why you should take a look into some alternatives to Google adsense.

Here is a list of 5 alternatives to Adsense

1. Yahoo
2. Pepperjam
3. Adbrite
4. Adsmart
5. Chikita

Yahoo is probably the best out of those 5. Many people report that yahoo pays more per click than Google does which is not surprising. What sets Yahoo apart from other Google Adsense alternatives is that it has a large amount of advertisers. This means that a visitor is less likely to see the same ad on multiple pages. This ultimately leads to more clicks which leads to more money. The other small publishers may provide some great short term success because they pay a lot per click since they just got into the game and are looking to build up business.

Aside from making more money you might have a different reason for switching to a alternative. Google is notorious for shutting down people's for click fraud. When someone clicks on their own ads it is called click fraud. When Google things one is clicking their own ads they shut off their account and it is difficult or impossible to get your account back. The bad part about this policy is that often times a sites visitor repeatably clicks on ads to get that persons account shut off. If you experience this you will want to look for a Google Adsense alternative because getting your account reopened can be difficult.

Comment Marketing To Make Money Online

2009-03-08T22:13:00.001-07:00

Guest post by Steve Blanchard

Out of all the make money online - comment marketing can end up being a very good one.

What is comment marketing?

Well it's actually been happening a lot since blogging became popular, however, it's where you consistently leave comments on high traffic blogs of your niche and when doing so you receive a link back to your site, plus if anyone clicks the link on your comment, then you will get traffic from that too.

How you should do comment marketing:

Research who the top bloggers are in your industry. You can simply do this by blog searching sites like technorati or just type in some searches on google and see which sites are actually blogs that come up. These guys are already listed in the first page of google so they have been doing some stuff right to get there. Since they are high traffic this will help you.

Create a list of these sites and begin a schedule that you can follow to begin posting comments to the sites. IMPORTANT: If you can try to be in the first 10 comments. You will have to find out if the blogger posts at the same time every day or every week and if so, try to be the fist commenter because that will give you the most traffic obviously. You will notice that if you are subscribed and you click on their post immediately once in comes into your email that there could be 40 comments already on there - that is because there is a delay from when they actually post to when feedburner or whatever they are using sends out the message to their list.

When commenting: DO NOT SPAM COMMENT! What's that? Well, make sure that you leave legitimate comments about what they posted and you more likely to have your comment posted since most are moderated. So if they are talking about 3 ways to find fish - make sure that you address something in your comment in regards to what was written. This will acknowledge that you actually read some of the post and who knows - you might just learn something that will help you so definitely read the post.

Evaluate every month which blogs seem to be getting you traffic and also search for new comers that may have popped up on the high traffic scene. You may have to drop a blog that you thought was doing well and start up with another one.

Be consistent. Again everything is about consistently leaving comments so that you can see the traffic start building a little more and more each week. You will still get some traffic even months from the time you comment if 1) the post was good and 2) You got within the first 10.

If you keep at these methods as another weapon you will drive more traffic and where there is traffic there is the potential to make money online. By the way most bloggers won't care that you are consistently commenting as long as you aren't SPAMMING! This is because it actually helps their ranking because the search engines see more activity on their site - so comments actually help their SEO.

Another positive point about comment marketing is that it actually helps your search engine ranking too. I have seen back links created each time a comment is made on another site, so this will help you and can be very beneficial when starting out.

AdSense's New Feature: Font Changing Option

2009-03-08T22:12:00.002-07:00

If you haven't read about the latest announcement in the Google AdSense Official blog yet, Google's is giving more freedom to you in customizing your AdSense ads for displaying on your blog or site.

Now when you are in your AdSense account to generate AdSense ad code, you will find an additional option called 'Fonts' that will allow you to choose the font for your AdSense ads.

This seems to be a good new option for AdSense publisher. As you may have known, displaying AdSense ads within the content area or articles is an effective way to generate high AdSense revenue. The font of the AdSense ads have set to be Arial font previously, so if your content uses Time New Romance, you will got to change all your content into Arial if you want the ads blend well with your content and generate better AdSense income.

But now, with the 'Font' option, you don't have to change your content font in your website. If you are using Time New Roman, you can keep your content font in Time New Roman and still blend well with AdSense ads by setting the AdSense ads font to be similar to the font of your content pages.

And if you are now thinking to change the font for every AdSense ad unit you have created, don't worry, you don't have to manually change it one by one. The AdSense team has set a quick way for you. You can read how to do it at http://adsense.blogspot.com/2009/02/fontastic-new-options-for-your-ad-units.html.

PPC Classroom will Show You How to Make Money Online!

2009-03-08T22:11:00.000-07:00

By Kevin Cleveland

With the economy the way it is and many people getting laid off. People are searching for ways to make money online. I had to go through that this last year. My Father had passed and I had to leave my job of 23 years and move to take care of my elderly mom. I moved from a big city to a little town of about 1500 with no opportunity. I had to get internet based. I had friends that were going to garage sales and selling whatever they could to build their income up on eBay. I thought that just isn't for me.

Besides there probably isn't that many garage sales in this little town. Then I came across affiliate marketing. The more I found out about it the more I realized this is it. This is where the money is on the internet. I did some searching and joined a site. Well that didn't teach me as much as I needed to know. Then I joined another and that one was too advanced. I was having trouble putting everything together.

Well I finally found the right place, - PPC Classroom -. Whether you are just beginning, still struggling to put things together, or an experienced marketer, this is a great online course for you. The class walks you through every step you need to take to start making money online with affiliate marketing (from finding a product to promote, to setting up campaigns for promoting your program or product and generate revenue).

Although this course is focused on affiliate marketing, it is even good for those experienced business owners wanting to promote their business on the Internet. In fact I went to the PPC class live event this last December and found out that there were many businessmen taking this course. I also met several students that were well on their way to making a lot of money. They really know their stuff.

The PPC Classroom was closed three months ago, but it is scheduled to re-open again on 24th Feb, accepting new students. Pre registration is going on right now. I highly recommend you join this online course if your goal is to make a steady income on the Internet. This class can change your life. The PPC Classroom students are now making over 4 million dollars a year. And Yes, most of these were complete newbies at the time when they join in PPC Classroom.

If you are already an affiliate one rule of thumb is set a goal, "whatever you are making now, multiply that by 10 and set your goal to 6 to 12 months. If you are just starting out in this business, I want to let you know. This will not happen overnight. It takes dedication and takes a while to understand, but I have been with them for three months and going to be with them for a long time. I have come a long way in those three months.

How to Write a Compelling Product Review

2009-03-08T22:10:00.002-07:00

Guest post by Ryan DSouza

1) Does Your Title Create Excitement?
In order for someone to actually read your review, he/she has to find the title interesting. If you just put down, "my product review of XYZ" no one will care to notice. The title should be an attention grabber. At the same time, it shouldn't make exaggerated claims. One way of doing this is to phrase your title as a question. "Did I really lose weight using Bowflex revolution?" or pose a doubt, "Does Bowflex actually help burn fat or is it just a scam?" This appeals to a person's curiosity and begs for a click. Another way, is to make a statement. " I lose 50 pounds in 3 months using bowflex!" or "Bowflex helped me look young again!" whichever technique you use, however, keep it honest. Avoid using deceptive practices, as it will only tarnish your reputation in the long run.

2) Are you presenting an unbiased Review?
Buyers want to know the truth. They have tried countless e-books, get rich quick schemes, and money-making programs in the past, most of which ended in failure and shortcoming. As a result, they have become more skeptical. Your task as an affiliate marketer is to write an honest, informative, and complete product review. Include BOTH the pros and cons. The whole purpose is to help the buyer make a purchasing decision, by providing YOUR personal experience with the product. So, if you have not bought or used the product, there is no true way of doing this.

Most affiliate reviews on the Internet today are written like infomercials, selling hype rather than experiences. People know this. That's why they look to discussion forums and blogs for advice. If you want to sell affiliate products today, you have to first earn the trust and loyalty of your readers. The only way of doing this is keep your reviews honest. Share your experience, whether good or bad. Give the buyer a complete picture of the product. Don't make him/her feel that you are hiding something out. This keeps him coming back for more.

3) Do You Sound Authoritative and Approachable?
Your review should reflect a certain level of expertise. Offer advice or solutions in addition to product experience. Be opinionated. Include your credentials; honors, and past affiliate income, if any, at the end of the review. This answers the question, "why should I listen to you?" Let the buyer know that you are knowledgeable in Internet marketing. If he/she senses that you are a new affiliate with no IM skills, he/she may leave your website, in favor of more credible sources of information. In that case, take time out to learn Internet marketing. The same applies to personality. Are you approachable? Can the buyer approach you, if he/she has a question? Are you easy to get a hold off? If not, take time out learn customer service.

4) Are You Creating Any Additional Value?
In other words, if the person decides to purchase the product, why should they buy it from you? What added benefit can you provide in addition to a product review. My suggestion is to give something valuable free. This could be an e-book, report, or a free consultation. If your website receives a lot of visitors, the product owner may even be willing to offer a special discount. The main idea here is to create additional value. This is called product bundling. The buyer should believe that he is getting more than just a review.

Telecommuting in Tough Times

2009-03-08T22:09:00.001-07:00

Guest post by Michael-John

With the economy in turmoil and millions of people losing their jobs, more and more people are turning to the internet to try and create sources of supplemental income. For those single Moms that are just trying to pay the rent and put food on the table, the prospect of making money online can be an enticing one. Many companies have decided to eliminate office and cubicle jobs and simply hire people who are willing to telecommute.

If this type of job interests you, you should know that it can be tough working from home. There are factors that can wreak havoc on your home life when you add a work at home job into the mix. The first thing you will need to do is create your own work space that is free of kids crying, dogs barking and background noises such as radios or televisions. The last thing employers want from their telecommuting employees is distracting background noise that lets a customer know that you are working from your home. When an employer hires someone to work at home, they don’t want to eliminate the feeling of a professional workspace. The best thing to do would be to instruct your family to leave you alone during work hours and allow you to complete your required tasks. If you can follow these rules then it is very possible to work at home and make money online.

You can find work at home jobs by searching websites like Craigslist and Indeed with the search terms “work at home” or “telecommute”, but beware – many work at home jobs are scams that you want to avoid at all costs. Always find out what a job entails and get the contact info for the person that is hiring you, also get the company address and name and do a search on the Better Business Bureau’s website for any negative history.

If you don’t feel you have the time at home to commit to a full time job, there are other legitimate ways to make money online and supplement your income. You won’t get rich from these sources of income, but they can help you pay the bills. There are actually a few websites where you can start making money online almost immediately. By completing simple trial offers, surveys or freebie offers on various websites – you can earn cash quickly. Most of these websites pay via PayPal withing 24 to 48 hours. You won't get rich from these websites, but you can make between $15 and $40 per hour in your spare time. These days, any source of extra income can be a big help!

You can find some of these websites on my blog at: Residuals and Royalties.

Get the Right Tool for Google AdWords

2009-03-08T22:08:00.002-07:00

Posted by Jeff from http://www.onlinemoneymakingeasy.com

Most Internet marketers agree that AdWords has changed the Internet world. It used to take days to get your ads up, circulating and producing results. Using Adwords you can have your ad live in two hours and circulating through the entire Google network of advertisers producing clicks almost immediately. Pretty amazing. What is the downside to this system? You can go broke if you don't know what you are doing. Most people jump into the AdWords system for immediate results not knowing the algorithm and system used by Google to gage pricing. In turn, they play lots of money, and few conversions. You need to educate yourself on the ins and outs of AdWords advertising to avoid overpaying and being penalized by Google.

A few things you need to know about AdWords pricing:

1. Keyword relevance to site content: Google will compare keywords to site content to verify the site is relevant.

2. Site content to ad text: Does the ad accurately represent what the site has to offer? Don't use text that is popular to gain clicks if it doesn't relate to your site.

3. URL misdirection: Google will verify the display URL and the destination URL are the same the site.

If these things are not met in a satisfactory manner then Google may freeze your ad, or what may be worse, run your ad charging you twice what you should be paying. On the other hand, if you get just the right keywords for your site and great ad text written up then you can actually pay less than others because your ad more accurately represents your site. You must learn how to do keyword research to find the right targets for your ad. Listen up, because this is important!

Don't go for the popular keywords in your campaigns!

Example: If you are advertising a weight loss product, don't use "losing weight" as one of your keywords because the competition is too great and it will cost you fortune.

You need to narrow your audience to those most likely to purchase your product and find keywords with a lower search volume to get better cost per click. If you think about it, it is better to pay $5 per click for one keyword with 550,000 searches per month or pay $.40 per click for 20 keywords like "losing weight plans" with an average search of 1,000 per month? You will get more clicks, pay less money, and a more targeted audience for high conversions. Of course remember when picking those keywords, don't just look at search volume, they need to be relevant keywords.

Just like doing anything else, getting the right information is extremely important and can potentially save you thousands in advertising dollars. A tool I have experience with called Google Ambush has been invaluable to me in marketing my various sites. It helps pick keywords, show price per keyword, and will upload your ad to Google. They also give training videos showing how to effectively use the software as well as give you other marketing tips.

Got Niche? - Why So Many Blogs Don't Succeed

2009-03-08T22:08:00.001-07:00

Guest Post by Joshua Lee

Finding a niche is essential to success in the blogging world, especially if you're writing a blog by yourself. Too often, I see people with great ideas set out to make their blog. And you know what happens? Nothing. They fail, even though their ideas were sound.

Why does this happen? Most often, it's because proper research wasn't done on the subject beforehand.
Let's take a common blog topic: Politics. You decided to make a politics blog. So, you get a nice sounding domain, some snazzy themes, load it up with great WordPress plugins, and start pumping out quality opinion pieces and news analysis every day. On top of that, you even advertise it on other blogs and do excellent SEO.

Is it going to work?

Well, it's certainly possible to succeed with this strategy, but it's like trying to climb up a steep cliff covered in dry ice without using your hands while blindfolded.

What's the problem, even after you did everything right?

You didn't focus on a niche! Sites that focus on the entirety of politics, such as The Huffington Post [on the Left] or RedState [on the Right], are not really niche blogs at all. Politics is a huge subject matter, after all. They have dozens of writers and editors working together to ensure huge amounts of quality content. Trying to compete with dozens of people working together, all by yourself, is just plain silly.

So, instead of a politics blog, let's look at a more closely targeted the audience, a niche if you will. For the sake of argument, we'll say I live in Colorado. I'm going make a niche blog, not about politics, but about progressive Colorado politics.

Notice how I'm putting in two qualifiers that focus who I'm targeting. I'm only looking for readers from Colorado, and only those that are interested in progressive views.

Huge national political blogs generally skimp on local state politics to focus on the big national issues, so there's certainly a lot of open space to grow. With this niche, you now know immediately who your audience is. What's the next step? Determine the market and the competition.

Obviously, the market for such a niche blog is smaller than a national political blog. Nevertheless, there are millions of progressive Internet users in Colorado, so there's certainly a big enough market.

What about the competition? Well, a simple Google search shows me only about a half dozen true competitors. This makes success much more easy.

There are thousands (if not millions) of political blogs all competing with each other to dominate the term politics. But, through restricting our niche to Colorado Progressive Politics instead, we've already eliminated a lot of that competition. With so much less competition, hard work, quality content, and solid SEO will put you on the front page results relatively quickly.

Focusing on a niche makes Google AdWords much more effective, too. For those that use it, now you have some specific search terms to use with it. Instead of trying to get traffic by targeting the term politics (a hotly contested and expensive item to get Google ads for), instead focus on your niche (Colorado progressive politics) and specific, related topics.

I hope this guide helps you on your way to creating a successful blog.

Using Twitter To Expand Your Business and Create Lifelong Customers

2009-03-08T22:07:00.001-07:00

Guest posy by Roxanne Manning

The social networking website, Twitter has become extremely popular and for good reason. It is a pretty cool website that allows individuals to keep up with their family, friends and associates. Savvy business owners and entrepreneurs are also using it to not only grow their businesses but to get repeat business. When used correctly, this is exactly what can happen.

The best way to use Twitter if you are looking to make money (and if you are an internet marketer, of course you are), is to encourage your customers or web visitors to follow you on Twitter. Promise them that they will be notified of any specials or sales that you will be offering. Make these special prices and deals available only to Twitter members. This will encourage them to sign up.

Make sure that you promote your Twitter account on a prominent place on your website. Add it to any e-books that you are selling or giving away as well as any articles that you write and submit to article directories. You want to grow your Twitter followers as much as you can. These people will act similarly to an email list. You will be able to keep in contact with them and sale them products in the future.

Once you get people to join and follow you on Twitter, you now can update them on any other products that you are selling or you can offer discounted prices. However, be sure to not only send out sales messages. Instead, provide some information that is informative and helpful. You want your followers to get some real value from you. If they begin to feel like they aren’t, then they may begin to simply ignore your messages.

If you decide to provide discounts, you need to provide some pretty significant ones. Try to offer 25% discounts or more. This will make people feel like they are real getting a deal. This will also encourage other people to follow you. While you will be charging less, you should increase the number of people that make purchases from you. Over time, if you can build up your “list” you can make a good amount of money simply from your Twitter account.

Twitter allows you to answer the question “What are you doing?” Your readers, i.e., friends, family, co-workers and/or customers can easily be updated on what is going on in your life or business. Provide well-written, relevant and informative posts and you can quickly develop an audience that can’t wait for your next update.

Twitter is much easier to manage then an email list. You don’t have to worry about fake email addresses, people complaining about spam, bounce backs or your messages being ignored. You simply provide updates to people that have already made a decision to follow you. Offer them good information that they are interested in as well as special discounts and sales. This will allow you to make first time sales and also create repeat business.

Is Ezine Articles Still Effective For Free Traffic & High Rankings?

2009-03-08T22:05:00.002-07:00

Guest post by Roxanne Manning

There was a time when you only had to write an optimized article, submit it to Ezinearticles and watch it rocket up the search engines, even for pretty competitive keywords or phrases. Today, it is much harder to get these types of results. One of the primary reasons is that there is a lot more competition then it used to be. A person could also count on getting traffic simply by being member. However, with more and more quality article directories popping up on the internet, this type of traffic is beginning to diminish as well.

More and more people have discovered the merits of article marketing and are utilizing it to grow their businesses. Also because this form of internet marketing has been around for some time, article marketers have gotten increasingly savvy. They don’t simply write an article and hope that Ezinearticles does it thing. Instead, they promote it and utilize search engine marketing techniques similar to those used by individuals attempting to get their websites ranked highly. Those people that know what they are doing experience tremendous success and are wiping the mat with people who do not. If you are one of those people on the outside looking in and wondering how it is possible for some to achieve so much with article marketing and others so little, keep reading. Blow, we will discuss some of the most common promotional techniques and tricks of the “big dogs”.

1. Get Incoming Links From Other Article Directories: The most important part of the SEO equation is to get incoming links. One great place to get them is from other article directories, especially from those that are well respected. Try Buzzle, Article Dashboad, Go Articles and other top directories. You will find that this is one simply, easy, fast and effective way to get quality, incoming links.

The purpose of this is to build up the incoming link count to your Ezine article. Because this directory has the best chance to get ranked, using one of the available links in your resource box from article directories to point to it, makes good sense.

2. Getting Incoming Links From Social Networking Websites: This is probably the most commonly used method of the article marketing pros to get incoming links and drive their articles up the search engines. It will take a little trial and error to determine which ones will allow you to link to Ezinearticles. Some won’t but others will. You can do this yourself or you can pay someone to do it if you do not have the time or would simply rather not.

3. Submitting Your Article’s RSS feed: Your Ezine article will have a RSS feed. Write it down and submit it to RSS directories for some easy traffic and back links.

These are some simple techniques to build up the link count to your Ezinearticles’ article and promote it. The more incoming links that you have, the greater chance you have to rank highly. Remember, other article directories and social networking websites are great places to begin.

Residuals and Royalties

2009-03-08T22:05:00.001-07:00

Guest post by Michael-John

If you are like most people in America, you probably work a typical 9-5 job and are getting frustrated with the daily grind. Those people that work 40 hours and get paid for 40 hours of work are earning what they call “linear income”. In other words, they get paid for the exact amount of hours they put in and not a penny more. There is a better way to earn income – this better way is through residual and royalty income.

Until now, only actors and authors received residuals or royalties for their work, but the internet has changed this. Nowadays you can do plenty of things online to create residual, royalty and passive income. You may ask yourself “how can I create residual income?” – well, the answer is on the internet.

There are plenty of ways to Make Money Online and Earn Residual Income; you can sell your photos online, write articles, sell your arts and crafts, earn money from your blog, add Google AdSense to your website and do many more things to create residual and royalty income. In fact, there are people earning hundreds and even thousands of dollars per month online in the form of passive income. The best part is that you keep getting paid over and over again long after you have put in the initial investment of your time and effort.

There are so many scams online that it is hard to actually know which websites are legitimate and which ones will just take your money. You need to know where to look to find the websites that are going to help you create supplemental income and not rip you off. There is a blog written by Michael-John Wolfe, an actor who has devoted all of his free to finding legitimate ways to make money online. Each day his blog lists a new form of residual income for you to investigate and research as a possible form of residual or royalty income. While Michael-John lists tons of websites, not each income source is for everyone – but if you take some time to browse through his website, there is no doubt that you will find a source of income that fits with your skills or situation.

Michael-John even lists sources of supplemental income and part time jobs that you can do for extra cash. Everyone wants to make money online, yet only a lucky few will actually take the steps necessary to create an easier life for themselves. Imagine never having to worry about working a “regular” job as a corporate drone ever again! Imagine the freedom you would feel if you had multiple streams of income flowing in from different online sources. Don’t let another year of your life pass by without creating some unique sources of income for you and your family.

Guest Post by Anil Gupta

When we search internet to find some easy ways to monetize our blog, we find lots of stuff already written on this topic. And when we study deeply at all ways to earn money from a blog, there may be hundreds of ways to earn revenue from a blog. But not all methods are going to help you make some quick cash. In today's article, I will discuss some techniques that a blogger in any niche can follow to monetize his/her blogs quickly and fastly:

PPC Ads – With PPC (Pay per click) Ads, we are going to get paid for every click that is made of an Ad on our blog. There are many networks who are offering PPC Ads in all niches. And the most popular PPC Ad networks are Google Adsense and YPN (Yahoo Publisher network), which is available for US citizens only right now. Applying for Google Adsense will not take more than 2 minutes and once you have Google AdSense Account, you have to just place AdSense widgets on your blog where you want the ads to appear. AdSense ads are highly customizable and can be placed in any section of a blog. All PPC networks serve ads according to the content of your blog.

Text & Banner ads – Selling text and banner ads will be easiest way to monetize your blog if it's already popular. There are lots of advertisers who are willing to place their ads on top blogs in their niche. We can earn from $10 to $100 or so for a link/banner for a month on our blog depending upon our blog popularity, traffic, Alexa ranking and Google Page rank. We can add a section like 'Advertise here' or 'Banner' here on our blog to attract advertisers. With this, we can also try some networks that can sell text/banner ads on your behalf and will share revenue with us.

Writing Articles – With these options, we can make money with what we are already doing i.e. blogging. There may be many advertisers in your niche who will be interested in getting a review about their service or product on your blog. With this 'Get Paid to Blog' kind of scheme, we are asked to write a review about a product or service and include their links within our review. But we should be extra cautious when going for this scheme. We should write about advertisers only who are directly or indirectly related to our niche and if possible should include nofollow links in our paid posts. There are many paid blogging networks on internet where you can register yourself to get extra money making opportunities. Some of popular 'Get Paid to Blog' networks are Payperpost, ReviewMe and SponsoredReviews.

Simple Ways to Advertise and Grow Your Membership Website

2009-03-08T22:02:00.000-07:00

Many internet marketers recognize that a membership site is a great way to bring in a comfortable and consistent income. So they find a great niche, set up their membership website and add great content, there is still one major step, getting members to join. At first glance, this often seems a bit overwhelming and is the point where membership site owners often get discouraged. Not knowing how to find members stop many online marketers even before they get started.

Fortunately, it is not too difficult to grow your membership base. As long as you understand that it may take some time. Don’t expect to fill up your site overnight. Instead, shoot for a couple of new members a day. Overtime, you will be able to draw a pretty good income. Below, are some simple ways to advertise:

Start An Affiliate Program: One very effective way to grow your membership website is to offer people (members and non-members) the ability to earn money by getting other people to join. Think about it. If your monthly fee is $29, offering individuals 50% or $14.50 each month for every new member that they sign up would be very enticing. If you get the right affiliates, you may not have to do much advertising at all.

Hang Out Where Your Potential Members Are: Spending time at the same places that people who might be interested in joining your membership site is a really good way to get members. This might include forums and social networking websites.

Try Adwords: Depending on what niche you are targeting, Adwords may be a great way to get the word out about your site and to get new members. Make sure that you carefully target your audience so that you don’t waste your money and time.

Write Press Releases: Press releases are another excellent way to advertise your membership website. There are a few fairly good options and some excellent paid ones. If you don’t know where to begin, consider Prweb.com. If you optimize your website and choose good keywords, you can get some good rankings for both your sales page and your release.

Forum Marketing: Once you figure out where your target audience spends their time online, it is time to go to them. Often times, forums are a great place to find people that will be interested in your offer. If the forum allows, make a post advertising your membership site. If they do not allow blatant advertising, then create a signature link ad.

Social Networking Websites: Social networking websites are another fantastic, advertising option. Find one that caters to your niche and then create short articles or blurbs that would interest them so that they click onto your website. After you get them there, it is up to you to sell your product. Consider, giving them a few free days or a free report so that they have some idea of the quality of content that you are offering.

Should You Stay away from Paid Surveys?

2009-03-08T22:01:00.000-07:00

Guest post by Hooshmand Moslemi

If you have been seeking for an online business opportunity for a while, chances are you may have seen catchy headlines such as "Get Paid $60/Hour to Take Surveys” or ”Make Money Just By Participating In Online Focus Groups". In the first look, what it comes to your mind is that it´s too good to be true. You may be wondering if it is really possible to make that amount of money just by filling out some polls and surveys without spending too much time or money. And if it is true, is it really worth it or not?

Well, finding a convincing answer to the above questions is not that simple. Paid surveys opportunity is not a new work-at-home online business. It has been around for a long time now and could not be regarded as something totally illegal or scam. On top of that, there are hundreds of thousands of people earning an additional income just by taking surveys and participating in focus groups. So, there is no doubt that real paid surveys companies still exist and serve people to make an extra income on the Internet.

However, you may be asking yourself if it is worth trying or you should stay away from paid surveys. While this question does not have any straight answer, either, I try to point out some of the facts behind paid surveys according to my personal point of view, as a person who has tried this opportunity long time ago. Then, it will up to you to make the right decision and figure it out for yourself.

1. Many paid surveys websites charge you a certain fee in order to join them. After sign-up, you will only get access to a huge list of companies where you can join separately and create your profile. So, bear in mind that you won´t get access to tons of surveys right after sign up.

2. That list is quite big and contains hundreds of market research companies. It may take hours of visiting and registering one by one which is a very time-consuming process.

3. In order to join every single company, you need to create a demographic profile. So, all of those companies would have access to many confidential information that covers your privacy. I am not saying that they are unreliable websites, but I would not feel comfortable. Apart from that, your e-mail address would be bombarded by tons of company deals and offers day in day out. Isn´t it annoying?

4. Many market research companies require users from only United States or United Kingdom. So, if you live outside these regions, you would simply miss out a lot of survey programs.

5. There is a reason for creating a profile in market survey companies. They need to check if the surveys they are going to send you match your demographic data. So, even if you live in the U.S. there is still a probability that you won´t get as many surveys as possible.

6. The majority of survey companies do not pay you cash. They give you rewards such as a free book or MP3 Player or something like that. You spend money for getting a list of market research companies, spend your time to join every single website out there, spend more time and fill out their polls and surveys, and then guess what?! You won´t get paid by cash! You will only get rewards.

7. And it gets more ridiculous when they offer you a spot in a reward list. Did you get it? After all inconvenience, you would be placed in a list of thousand of users and get the chance to win a prize!!! Does it make sense?

So, it was all my experience with paid surveys programs and market research companies. Now, the choice is yours. If you are like me, you might prefer something better. For me, my time is more valuable than my money. So, that´s why I would stay away from paid surveys and rather work on more profitable business opportunities. I hope you will do the same thing. You deserve better.

Got Niche? - Why So Many Blogs Don't Succeed

2009-02-13T17:55:00.000-08:00

uest Post by Joshua Lee

Finding a niche is essential to success in the blogging world, especially if you're writing a blog by yourself. Too often, I see people with great ideas set out to make their blog. And you know what happens? Nothing. They fail, even though their ideas were sound.

Why does this happen? Most often, it's because proper research wasn't done on the subject beforehand.

Let's take a common blog topic: Politics. You decided to make a politics blog. So, you get a nice sounding domain, some snazzy themes, load it up with great WordPress plugins, and start pumping out quality opinion pieces and news analysis every day. On top of that, you even advertise it on other blogs and do excellent SEO.

Is it going to work?

Well, it's certainly possible to succeed with this strategy, but it's like trying to climb up a steep cliff covered in dry ice without using your hands while blindfolded.

What's the problem, even after you did everything right?

You didn't focus on a niche! Sites that focus on the entirety of politics, such as The Huffington Post [on the Left] or RedState [on the Right], are not really niche blogs at all. Politics is a huge subject matter, after all. They have dozens of writers and editors working together to ensure huge amounts of quality content. Trying to compete with dozens of people working together, all by yourself, is just plain silly.

So, instead of a politics blog, let's look at a more closely targeted the audience, a niche if you will. For the sake of argument, we'll say I live in Colorado. I'm going make a niche blog, not about politics, but about progressive Colorado politics.

Notice how I'm putting in two qualifiers that focus who I'm targeting. I'm only looking for readers from Colorado, and only those that are interested in progressive views.

Huge national political blogs generally skimp on local state politics to focus on the big national issues, so there's certainly a lot of open space to grow. With this niche, you now know immediately who your audience is. What's the next step? Determine the market and the competition.

Obviously, the market for such a niche blog is smaller than a national political blog. Nevertheless, there are millions of progressive Internet users in Colorado, so there's certainly a big enough market.

What about the competition? Well, a simple Google search shows me only about a half dozen true competitors. This makes success much more easy.

There are thousands (if not millions) of political blogs all competing with each other to dominate the term politics. But, through restricting our niche to Colorado Progressive Politics instead, we've already eliminated a lot of that competition. With so much less competition, hard work, quality content, and solid SEO will put you on the front page results relatively quickly.

Focusing on a niche makes Google AdWords much more effective, too. For those that use it, now you have some specific search terms to use with it. Instead of trying to get traffic by targeting the term politics (a hotly contested and expensive item to get Google ads for), instead focus on your niche (Colorado progressive politics) and specific, related topics.

I hope this guide helps you on your way to creating a successful blog.

Is Ezine Articles Still Effective For Free Traffic & High Rankings?

2009-02-13T17:53:00.001-08:00

Guest post by Roxanne Manning

There was a time when you only had to write an optimized article, submit it to Ezinearticles and watch it rocket up the search engines, even for pretty competitive keywords or phrases. Today, it is much harder to get these types of results. One of the primary reasons is that there is a lot more competition then it used to be. A person could also count on getting traffic simply by being member. However, with more and more quality article directories popping up on the internet, this type of traffic is beginning to diminish as well.

More and more people have discovered the merits of article marketing and are utilizing it to grow their businesses. Also because this form of internet marketing has been around for some time, article marketers have gotten increasingly savvy.

They don’t simply write an article and hope that Ezinearticles does it thing. Instead, they promote it and utilize search engine marketing techniques similar to those used by individuals attempting to get their websites ranked highly. Those people that know what they are doing experience tremendous success and are wiping the mat with people who do not. If you are one of those people on the outside looking in and wondering how it is possible for some to achieve so much with article marketing and others so little, keep reading. Blow, we will discuss some of the most common promotional techniques and tricks of the “big dogs”.

1. Get Incoming Links From Other Article Directories: The most important part of the SEO equation is to get incoming links. One great place to get them is from other article directories, especially from those that are well respected. Try Buzzle, Article Dashboad, Go Articles and other top directories. You will find that this is one simply, easy, fast and effective way to get quality, incoming links.

The purpose of this is to build up the incoming link count to your Ezine article. Because this directory has the best chance to get ranked, using one of the available links in your resource box from article directories to point to it, makes good sense.

2. Getting Incoming Links From Social Networking Websites: This is probably the most commonly used method of the article marketing pros to get incoming links and drive their articles up the search engines. It will take a little trial and error to determine which ones will allow you to link to Ezinearticles. Some won’t but others will. You can do this yourself or you can pay someone to do it if you do not have the time or would simply rather not.

3. Submitting Your Article’s RSS feed: Your Ezine article will have a RSS feed. Write it down and submit it to RSS directories for some easy traffic and back links.

These are some simple techniques to build up the link count to your Ezinearticles’ article and promote it. The more incoming links that you have, the greater chance you have to rank highly. Remember, other article directories and social networking websites are great places to begin.
