Start Your Own Blogging Business Without The Technical Know-How

by Leslie Bogaerts

Starting your own blogging business is a good way to make money online, but when you don't have the technical know-how to get started it can be overwhelming. But don't fear, there is a solution for you.

You don't have to know everything about the technical aspects of blogging to become a success. I can even tell you that there are successfull bloggers out there that don't know a thing on how to set one up, still they keep creating one blog after another. How do they do it?

The solution is outsourcing.

By handing over the difficult tasks to people that know much more about it than you do, you save considerable time and you ensure that the job is being done right the first time.

Yes, it's true, outsourcing does cost you some money, but when you consider the time it would take to do it yourself, you will soon see how worthwile it is.

Some of the benefits of having a blogging business include:

- You create a passive income source - Working from the comfort of your own home - You can write about topics that interest you - There are multiple income streams possible - Daily time commitment is small

Millions of people worldwide are creating blogs for fun and thousands have started a blogging business that gives them a decent income every month. If you want to be one of them, you only need to get started.

The blog set up might be the first problem that you encounter when starting your blogging business. When you don't have extensive knowledge of domain names, hosting and blog installation this might be the hardest part. If you can outsource this to someone that is experienced in this domain, you will save yourself many hours of frustration!

Outsourcing the blog set up will save you time, which you can use to research article topics and work out a promotional plan for your blog. These things are the ones that are important, as they will bring you the money! Let someone else do the tech tasks while you focus on the things that are the most important.

When you are really serious of setting up a blogging business, but you just don't know where to start, outsource the initial technical tasks while you work on the content of your blog. Remember, it's the content that will keep the visitors coming back for more.

Costs involved in Pay Per Click Marketing

By Sean Galusha

Pay per click marketing (PPC) is an effective online marketing tool, but aside from that, it has also provided many website owners the opportunity to make money on the internet. Indeed, PPC has been a good avenue for website owners to earn from their sites.

Pay per click came out in the internet in 2002 and it has, since then, became a popular advertising tool. It has also gained more popularity as Google adopted the concept for their marketing tool, Google Adwords.

This marketing tool allows you to post your ads on as many websites in the internet, by making an agreement with the website owners. There will be no cost involved in the posting of the ad or text links but once online users get interested and click on your ads, you have to pay the website owner of the agreed cost per click.

There are two ways in determining the cost in pay per click marketing. It can be determined through flat rate and through bid-based.

In flat rate pay per click marketing campaign, you will agree with the website owner of a fix rate that you will pay for every click of your ad in his website. Most often, companies and businesses online have a list of rates called a rate card for this model.

On the bid-based pay per click marketing, the cost per click of your advertisement is determined through bidding with other companies and advertisers. The rate then is based on how much you are willing to pay for every click of your ad for a particular ad spot. In this method of pay per click marketing, you will be competing with other advertisers as to the lowest cost you can pay for every click for your ad.

Whatever model or ways you adopt for your pay per click marketing, it is important to keep in mind the main goal of your pay per click campaign and that is not just getting many clicks to your ad but making sure also that these will be converted to sales.

Use Articles to Sell Your E-book

By Stephen Beck

You can make money online by marketing information products like e-books and more. By this point, you will have researched a topic online, using keywords to narrow your field. Now the writing is complete and the website is online, you need to drive traffic to the website selling your e-book.

What is one of the best ways to get more visitors to buy your e-book?

By writing articles! You have researched keyword phrases and used them to write your e-book. Use those same keyword phrases to write articles, which will add more backward links to your e-book website. At the end of each article, add a link that leads people to your website. You may also want to add a brief note about yourself, the author, and offer them something of value for visiting your site. This "ethical bribe" can be information, a newsletter, or something else that will attract attention.

If you are writing an article that tells your reader how to save money, you can include a resource box like this one. "Stephen Beck has written many articles on throwing a wonderful wedding on a shoestring budget and is giving away a free report entitled, Saving Money While Still Having a Great Wedding. Click here for your free copy."

By clicking on that link, customers are taken to your single page website advertising your e-book. A pop-up requests their name and e-mail address, allowing you to send them a free report on saving money. Not only do you collect contact information, but you benefit from a steady stream of visitors to your website, all fascinated by your topic.

Once your article is written, you will blast it to the articles and e-zine directories on the web for massive e-book promotion. Why in the world would we blast them all over the internet? Because webmasters are notoriously lazy and they love free articles. They dont mind a bit that your articles are going to direct the reader back to your website.

As you write and submit articles, you develop a reputation as an authority. This increases your name recognition. At the same time, the backward links increase your rankings in the search engines while driving more traffic to your website. This is a great way to use articles to sell your e-book.

Different Ways to Find Housekeeper Jobs

By Alice Sy

In various websites and classified ads, you will find housekeeper jobs under the household service category. There are positions which are available for residences. There are also some which are available in offices. If ever you have this desire to obtain a position like this, you should start taking some actions now. Here are some pointers for you:

* Spread an advertisement about yourself. Promote your services. You can start by posting on classified ads. There are online and offline classified ads where you can place your ads for free. By doing this, you will broaden the chance for potential employers to know about you.

* Check classified ads as well for wanted lists. There might be someone there who is in need of a housekeeper. Respond to that ad by contacting the poster and inquire about the vacancy.

* You can also try getting the services of agencies, since these companies have a selection of listings or vacancies on specific housekeeping jobs. Furthermore, many employers seek the assistance of agencies in order to find skillful housekeepers. Since these agencies have already interviewed the applicants and have gone through their documents, employers don't need to do the assessment themselves. This set-up is highly favored by employers which is why you will most likely get a job through agencies.

* In order to find housekeeper jobs, you can also try offering business cards to interested people or even to random individuals who can then pass the contact cards to their colleagues and friends. Even random strangers can prove helpful to anyone looking for a housekeeping job.

* Gather referrals. People might know some of their friends or relatives that are looking for housekeepers. In creating a professional resume that would enable you to find housekeeper jobs, it will be good to include the names of your former bosses and employers in the character reference. Place people that can attest that you are qualified for the position.

What are the Advantages of Internet Based Marketing?

By Joe Cotroneo

Today I'll be telling you how and why Internet based marketing can give you more bang for your buck than the traditional offline advertising and marketing model. For example:

You go to your local newspaper and you tell them you want to place an ad. While there, you ask them how many readers they have or what are the circulation numbers - and they give you a round about number. You also ask, what the demographics are, and they give you a general answer, as they do not exactly know.

Then, let's say the place an ad in the classified section and then sit back and wait to see what happens. Now, to track this, you put a code on your website URL so you know exactly how many visitors you're getting from that one newspaper ad. With the phone number, you also include a code, so that you know where the calls are coming from.

In the interim, you wait for your ad to go out on the next edition of the newspaper. After a week, you start to get some traffic and calls, and then you measure that against the price of your ad. You may find that with ten leads, the ad is costing $5.00 per visitor with a total ad cost of $50.00.

Now suppose one of these leads converted into a sale. You may get some more calls of course over the next few weeks. Responses to print advertisements sometimes take a while.

Now, let's take an Internet advertisement example by comparison. For this one, you start a pay per click campaign. With this method, you determine what keywords are relative to your service or product. You can get as targeted as you want and you can put a few keywords in a broad category, too, to see what keywords you might be missing out on when you try to snare everyone in your market.

Your ad goes live within fifteen minutes, using Google as an example. You only pay for people who click on your link and in this case you are paying $1.00 per click. Let?s say you convert at 2%. So you spend $100 to make two sales.

However the advantage here is that you can track which keywords are leading to keywords, and which are not and refine your ad campaign accordingly to maximize your conversions.This makes your campaign more cost effective, not to mention bringing in more sales than a newspaper ad.

In addition, because you've also used broader keywords, you can see how many people are finding you with this "one size fits most" method. You can also place ads on other websites with exact demographic information, which will be extremely targeted to your business.

What's the point of all this? Basically, when you compare advertising in traditional venues such as the newspaper with online advertising, you can measure your performance with online advertising much more efficiently.

By the way, pay per click is only one form of online marketing, there are many other effective marketing techniques you can use online, such as writing articles relative to your business, doing a press release, adverting in relevant online ezines and one of the most effective online marketing techniques is e-mail marketing, that is if it is done correctly.

Internet based marketing can significantly reduce your costs. It can also provide more information that lets you run more efficient and better marketing campaigns. In addition, your turnaround time is faster so that you get better information much sooner than you do with traditional venues.

Paid For Surveys: Too Good To Be True?

By Andre Peter

Paid online surveys have been around the internet for quite some time, and a lot of people are getting into it in hopes of getting some extra cash, whether to pay for home expenses, everyday needs or buy life's simple luxuries. Companies that are doing marketing research with their products and services are willing to pay consumers who partake in their ongoing surveys and focus groups. There are a lot of paid for surveys in the web and one must be able to discern those legitimate survey sites from the scams.

There is actually some light behind paid online surveys in the web; you get paid for sharing what you think about their products. Companies big or small are aware of how significant consumer opinion is because it is what would help them make betterments on the quality of their products and services and in turn provide better income. These online surveys are part of a bigger marketing campaign that companies are paying a big sum for.

Paid for surveys can tackle about a wide array of topics which can include your favorite restaurants, movies, music, events, food, grocery items and even the latest technology in computers and telecommunication. These surveys are aimed at different age groups, income range, work and field of interests. Whatever category theses surveys are in, they all give companies invaluable data to improve their products and services.

Once you sign-up for paid online surveys, you will be asked to fill-up some basic demographic information like your age, gender, work, and income range. Once these sites determine you are qualified for a particular survey based on the information you have entered, you will be given an email containing an invitation to participate in the survey and a link which directs you the survey site.

The rewards coming from these paid online surveys may take the form of cash, discount coupons, merchandise or points that are convertible to cash and other freebies. Each survey site will have different means of giving you incentives for participating in their surveys; some will directly give you a small amount of cash, and some will require you to earn points and exchange them for a particular gift item.

With the advent of paid online surveys also comes unscrupulous websites wanting to take advantage of people looking for some ways of earning some money. These said sites will usually promote themselves as having a huge database collection of paid for surveys in which you can access through membership in their websites.

Membership of course, comes at a price, varying from $25-$100 or even more. Their websites are filled with a lot of data about their members and how much they have earned after signing-up, even putting up screenshots of the daily or monthly earnings of their so-called members, which we can't even determine if they really exist at all. You will also see many testimonials from their fictitious members saying how thankful they are that they found that particular website.

These fake websites will do everything just to get you to become a member by presenting you with pictures of their fictitious members and the huge income they claim to have earned in just a few days. Sounds good to be true isn't it? And after joining you will discover that what they have are just fake collection of survey sites and links sending you to more fake surveys. You will never hear from them ever again after joining.

Knowing all these, one must be very careful in participating in paid online surveys. For one, they must not require you any amount of fee for completing a survey, as legitimate companies will not ask for anything in return; in fact they are the ones which will give something. Do not get carried away with their too-good-to-be-true promotions and promises. With a little effort, you can easily find yourself some genuine websites offering real paid for surveys. Good luck!

Internet Based Marketing

By Joe Cotroneo

In this article, I'll discuss why Internet based marketing can give you a better return on your investment versus traditional, off-line marketing. Let's start with an example.

Suppose that you want to place an advertisement in your local paper. You go to their offices and while there, you ask them two questions: firstly, what is their circulation? They will give you a ballpark figure. Secondly, you want to know the demographics of their readership. They will most likely guess here, as they cannot know for sure.

So you place the ad in the classified section and wait to see what happens. By the way, on your ad you put a code on your website URL so you know how many visitors you are getting from that ad, and second, with the phone number you also add a code, so you know where the calls are coming from.

You're also going to have to be patient. Your ad will go out in the next edition. Eventually, you'll start getting some calls and some additional traffic to your site. Compare this added interest with the cost for the advertisement. Say you got ten leads out of the ad, with the ad costing you about five dollars per visitor; this means your ad has cost you $50 in total.

Now suppose one of these leads converted into a sale. You may get some more calls of course over the next few weeks. Responses to print advertisements sometimes take a while.

Let's compare this with internet based advertising. First off, try a pay per click ad campaign. This allows you to narrowly target your campaign by using the keywords of your choice which you think are relevant to your product or service and that will attract visitors to your site. You can also try out more general keywords and see what results you get.

With pay per click, you ad is up and being viewed in minutes by millions of people using Google, in this example. Best of all, you only pay when people click on the link in your ad!Suppose that you pay a dollar per click and have a conversion rate of 2% - you will spend $50 per sale that you make.

Here, though, you can tell which keywords are converting to sales because you can use conversion tracking. Then, you can remove the keywords that aren't converting, so that your ad campaign is both more effective and more cost-efficient.

If you've also used more general keywords, you can track how much traffic that this approach has netted you. On the other side of the coin, you'll be able to place ads on websites whose readerships demographics match the market you're targeting.

What's the point of all this? Basically, when you compare advertising in traditional venues such as the newspaper with online advertising, you can measure your performance with online advertising much more efficiently.

Another point to make is that pay per click is only one way to advertise online. You can also use other cost-effective marketing techniques online, such as targeted article writing relevant to your business, writing a press release, and running advertisements in complementary online e-zines. Perhaps the most effective of these, though, is e-mail marketing, as long as it's done correctly.

Internet based marketing can cut your costs; provide more information, enabling you to run better marketing campaigns. Additionally, the turn around time is faster and as a result you get better information sooner.

IM Remarkable and SEO - Howie Schwartz Dominating...

By Linus Rylander

Jagger is a 3-part Google update that has changed some of the serious rules of determining page rank and this has influenced the SEO community in its totality. The new Google update has influenced the site page ranking and the key areas, which have got influenced are : Your net page history Method for counting back links web site content and structure Let us look at every one of the areas influenced. Your site page history One of the heavy aspects driving Google ranking is the history of your site. If a particular internal page from your internet site has been live for a longer time period then it'll have a better page rank for further phrases. In such an eventuality, you must approach the marketing of a competitive phrase by selecting secondary phrases which will also contain the first keyword. So if you have competitive phrases as well as a long site history then you stand an enhanced chance at getting high rankings on Google. According to the Google update, the sandbox per links are working in parts and after a certain period, the links will gain a substantial part of their weight, and after some more time, they are going to gain some more weight and it will go on. This essentially means that if you pursue a link building campaign today then it will not seriously have an affect on your Google rankings for quite a long time.

Another critical aspect is the relevancy determining standards has improved.

So if you are running a SEO business and if you link your site to that of a domain design & development company then the link will be an applicable link. Site content & structure Another major thing spotted by SEO gurus is that there is no change in the perfect keyword saturation but there had been a decline in its cost. There'll be a higher visibility for topic-specific directories as against general directories.

If your net site has a central theme that is carried across the Net site then your website have a better page rank. Google has added lots of worth or weight on internal links as relevancy is troubled. If the internal links are well worded and are built into the entire content of your internet site then it will impact your ranking by adding more weight to the internal pages.

The base line is that though this is not the perfect Google update on page ranking but it'll make sure that folks can't have their sites higher on the page rank by buying links or cramming their website pages with keywords.

Social Networking Sites | Social Media Marketing Success Or A Networking Nightmare?

By Neil Ashworth

Theres a lot of talk about social media marketing and a lot of debate about the ROI but here my take on why you should invest time, resources and energy into building a profile across different social networking platforms and how you can use your profile to drive traffic to your website.

With so many social networking sites out there its easy to get lost in the woods, struggling to find your way around and find yourself camped out, talking nonsense with the social media fools, freaks and geeks sending postcards, virtual drinks and all those other latest social applications floating around the social media universe.

So, to avoid wasting your time, energy and money (after all time is money) here is a three point plan to making a success of your social media marketing campaign;

Start by listing three things to get a clear picture of who you are, who you are not and who you want to be. Branding is a big part of any marketing model but with social networking sites able to send your message, words or brand across several platforms with the click of a button it's vital you nail it from day one. If you dont you might just end up the fool at the party. And nobody listens to a fool!

Second, research the social media platform before moving in and wasting your time and energy on a social networking strategy only to find that the type of people you are looking for dont use that particular social platform. Lets face it, with so many social networking sites out there and new ones shooting up each and every day, you should be able to find your niche if you look closely enough. A Google search should provide the results you are looking for if you need a specific niche for your business.

Okay, so now you're ready to go you need to take a few more moments to listen to what's happening out there. Don't rush into your new social networking site like a mad man (or woman) screaming and shouting about your business, product or opportunity or you will quickly find that the community isolates you. Social networking sites are just that; social.

So, be social. Be unique and try to add some value or entertainment to the social media party. Do this well and when you speak others will listen. Get this wrong and you'l be whistling into the wind.

7 Reasons Why You Should Be In The Travel Business

By Gary Mooney

Are you one of those who are dissatisfied with their current career? Do you know a lot of people who wants to travel? If you answer to these questions, then you now have a good reason to setup your very own home based travel business!

Who doesn't like to travel? Admit it, you yourself find your everyday routine to be monotonous and unexciting. Perhaps you like different scenery besides that of your cubicle. The fact is everybody likes to travel; to experience a new view, a well known tourist destination, and even experience a new culture. Even if the economy isn't that good, we all still like to get away from it all, even for just for a while. If people travel when the prices are high, imagine if you could offer discounted travel to your family and friends! How many do you think will jump to take the chance?

You can simply earn while they travel. Travelling means spending. People have to pay when they rent a car or buy plane tickets. It's not cheap to travel but because people have the natural urge to go places, people will spend. That is the reason why the travel business is an industry that amounts to $7 trillion a year - that's $19 billion per day, 799 million per hour, and 13 million per minute. By the time we reach 2010, it is estimated to reach $14 trillion. Also, it grows 23% faster than the U.S. economy itself. Now, isn't it that a great business opportunity?

If you have friends who travel, they will choose you. In this travel business, you have a chance of competing against travel conglomerates like Cheaptickets, Travelocity, Expedia, and even Orbitz. If you have travel offers similar to what they have, who do you think your friends will choose: you, whom they know, and trust, or the big travel corporations? You know the only answer to that.

They will choose you. If you're in this travel business and you offer the same price to your friends and family, who do you think they'll choose? Of course, it's you! People do not buy from people or companies they have never heard about. Although companies can be well known, these big travel conglomerates such as Expedia, Cheaptickets, Travelocity, and Orbitz are all impersonal. Hence, you have a big chance of winning over them.

Be your own boss. By working at home, you would definitely have more time for your family, hobbies and other things worthwhile to you. Now you can nurture your well-being at your own pace. Also, now you don't have to deal with a boss who constantly drives you to work in a typical office cubicle farm.

The Internet is a powerful tool. Being at home doest mean you're isolated from the outside world. In these days, you will rarely find a person who doesn't have an internet connection at home. This fact alone gives you the advantage of flourishing in travel business. If everybody likes to travel and are connected to the internet, you have a great business opportunity right at your fingertips, right inside your home.

If big companies are in it, why shouldn't you be in it too? With little effort and capital many across America are currently earning big in this business as they compete with the well established travel conglomerates. It's a healthy competition so you should be in it too.The best point is you can very well earn big in travel commissions while having the best benefits a typical office setting can possibly give. Better yet, why not travel and earn a lot, at the same time?

How To Find Money In The Travel Business

By Gary Mooney

Want to know about a great business opportunity?

What can the travel business offer you? Think about this: unlimited travel commissions, a home-based business, discounted travel packages and so much more! But you should know that this is only the tip of the iceberg. If you really pursue this business opportunity, you can go for so much more! But you have to admit that this would be a pretty good start.

The beauty of network marketing is that you can actually establish a home-based business using that business strategy. The truth is, all you'll need to do is use the word-of-mouth technique and you can start earning those travel commissions soon enough.

The economic principle behind it.

Plane tickets are normally cheaper when you book them in advance compared to buying them from the airport. Now, this happens because airlines are confident that they will still be able to fill their seats. However, what happens when airlines realize that the plane may not be filled before take-off? Now, when the plane is not filled, the airline shoulders the exact expense for things like fuel and salaries. In order to lessen that loss with one flight, they pad the prices of plane tickets bought by incidental passengers.

The principle behind wholesale travel is the same principle behind wholesale goods except you look at it in terms of plane tickets and not food products. You see, a plane can have a seating capacity ranging from 20 to as many as 200. For a specific plane, each take-off costs the same, however the number of passengers inside may not be. So when an airplane takes off with a few empty seats, they are actually losing a lot. So what they do is they stratify the prices of plane tickets. Advance bookings get cheaper rates while over-the-counter exchanges are much more expensive.

Still interested?

So how do you begin engaging in this business? Multi-level marketing or MLM is a form of network marketing that uses nothing but word-of-mouth. That is your only investment in the business, your ability to talk to people and convince them of how much savings they can make. As mentioned before, this can easily be a home-based business. More than that, you don't have to fulfill a quota. If you don't sell any travel packages, you don't earn anything-but you also don't lose anything. However if you do get to sell a package, you'll get a commission.

This business opportunity is so simple and clear. If you don't get to sell any travel packages, you don't earn anything, you don't lose anything either! But if you sell a lot, you also earn a lot. That is the beauty of the travel business.

Unfortunately, many people think that network marketing is actually the pyramid scamming that gets people in debt. This is why you should know the processes of MLM before you engage in the business. Make sure that the agency that you'll apply at, is legitimate and trustworthy. There are many ways with which you can protect yourself from such scams. Avoid those and start travelling or earning money!

Niche Marketing

By David Lim

Niche marketing is marketing that is focused specifically on the needs of a very targeted group of users. Such a market is typically not large, so that the competition is manageable for the new players.

In the online world, niche marketing is primarily concerned with niches in which the search engine competition is low. Normally, you will carry out the following steps:

* Identify keywords that has the most potential in terms of either Adsense revenue or product sales or both.

* Build a website to target those keywords.

* Optimize the content in your blog posts or website pages for the search engines, keeping in mind the keywords targeted.

* Build links to your site or blog by submitting articles, submitting your site or blog to directories and exchanging links with other webmasters.

* Just continue building backlinks using the previous techniques until your blog or website is ranked in the position that you want in Google.

There are many variations of the above steps as they will depend on your strengths, your long term goals and the topic of the website or blog in question. What is listed above are the normal steps carried out.

Investment Needed

In my opinion, you must pay for your domain name and web hosting. They will cost you less than $11 per month. The advantages of paying for those far weighs the small cost incurred.

There are other services you might want to consider spending money on as they will increase your productivity, and in the long run, give you a better return on the time you spent:

* Good content for your blogs, articles and websites is key to your success and, unfortunately, also takes the most time to generate. Paying for articles to be written might be a good investment.

* Services that automate the submission of your articles to article directories, blogs and websites.

* Services that reduces the time it takes to get good anchored backlinks to your site.

Skills Needed

A relatively good command of English would definitely be recommended, especially if you intend to write the content and articles yourself. You don't have to be a writer, but you must at least be able to write grammatically correct sentences and be disciplined enough to spell check your work.

When you are starting out, you will be doing a lot of the computer and web related work yourself. You will find yourself installing software, updating your name servers, configuring your web hosting package, and other related stuff. You don't have to be a computer whiz as instructions will be provided, but you do have to be computer literate enough to understand those instructions.

Niche marketing is not a job but a business. And in any business, a spirit of entrepreneurship would be needed. While I have broken down the marketing process into a few simple steps, the details of how to implement each step varies for different people, different websites, different keywords, etc. Each niche also presents unique challenges that you, as the entrepreneur, must meet.

Affiliate marketing: Display ads basic issues

By Jeff Goyen

All affiliate programs run display ads of various types and quality. These ads are usually text boxes, graphics, or multimedia. Their effect and usefulness varies quite a lot. This is another area where the marketing part of affiliate marketing comes into play, and there are some considerations for affiliates to deal with.

As attention getters, the text box type is the low end. Theyre basic, theyre simple, and theyre not real attention getters, unless relevant to the site audience. These ads are however good space users, and can operate effectively on any site, also taking care of the bald patches, in some cases. They can help maximize use of space.

The graphic- oriented ads are much better at creating profile and presence for an affiliate program. They have a higher visual impact, and are designed to be grabbers. They do attract attention, and are generally pretty trustworthy as basic ad content. The net is very much a visual medium, and people read web pages on visual priorities, which are the graphic ads strong suits. Color, contrast, and design are major attractants, even when the person isnt looking for the product.

The graphics ads are more in the mid range, and they do have some punch and presence on any site. The presentation is better, by far, than the classifieds, and they add color and definition, which is an attention getter. Content is sometimes good, and affiliates get better value out of these ads. That said, static graphics ads can become part of the furniture, and they take up space, and can require management to fit sites comfortably.

Generally speaking the actual multimedia ads are professionally done, so content is OK, but the management issues are also more complicated. When to run a multimedia ad, or whether to run it or have it as a passive link, for example, can be a decision and a half.

Ad content is the main issue. An ad that gets productive attention is what affiliates want, not just some bit of baggage to stick on the site and hope it sells something. The best option is to base your choices of display ads on practical quality control.

When deciding how and where to use your ads, you need a management tool that will keep things simple, and allow you maximum control. Nobody needs an ad that creates problems, or is difficult to run in a real time situation online.

This is where Niche N Easy is a good option. It can handle any ad. You have full operational control. You can handle layout, site functions and applications, easily.

Tried and True Web Development Principles

By Billy Remtany

I have been working in the web the industry coming up on almost ten years now! Since I've started I've seen many fads rise and fall. I've built sites in everything from plain old HTML to XHTML to DHTML and every content management system you can imagine.

In all of this time working on web projects, I have recently noticed that there are three core items that I work on with every project. These items are not trends or fads. They have been around since I started working on web sites and will likely be around long after I'm done working on them. They are search engine optimization (SEO), conversions, and web standards compliance. Yes, there are many many other things that can be focused on besides the three things, but your time will certainly be well spent on these. These are not fads.

While the game of search engine optimization (SEO) seemingly changes on a daily basis, this does not mean that it has ever not been a focus of ours. Even within SEO there are some things that we have always worked on. Title tags have always been important and likely will be important for the foreseeable future. Also, the text used in your URL has always been important and likely will always be important. While Meta keywords are a thing of the past, Meta description still play an important part as they often show up under your link in the search engine listings. New focuses of ours include the long-tail, social media and networking, and link bait.

Another item that we always seem to focus on his conversions. Whether you run an online store, a blogs, or in information site, you always have a singular goal for a random site visitor. Do you want them to become a customer? Do you want them to become a repeat visitor? Do you want them to click on ads? Do you want them to stick around and read more of your website content? These are serious questions that you need to ask yourself and your client as you go about designing the web site. The total user interface should be designed around what you want the visitor to end up doing on the web site.

You must always focus on web standards when building a web site. Web standards compliance ensures that your website will show up consistently across the multitude of web browsers that exist. The added bonus of a focus on web standards includes the fact that your website will load faster. A faster loading website combined with the standards compliant code is like candy for the search engines and they reward you for this by improving your rankings in the search results.

So, as you can see, some fads come and go but there are some things in web design and development that have been true since the beginning. Search engine optimization, conversions, and standards compliance will always be important to you when working on a web site.

4 Crucial Article Marketing Elements to Make You Money

By Harry Constantine

The importance of article marketing in today's Internet marketing is immeasurable. It means a lot success and the drive of huge traffic into your website. Article marketing has become a key element in making a site work and makes you money. As a web publisher and owner, you should have the good sense to include articles in his or her site that will work for them and earn them the many benefits articles can give to their site.

Article marketing has been known to be the driving force in driving traffic to a site with articles. And articles are a factor in giving site high rankings in search result pages. But, it is not just about stuffing your website with articles; they have certain requirements as well. These requirements must be achieved to obtain the maximum benefits an article will provide for you.

Below are 4 crucial article marketing elements to make your site a profit earning and traffic overflowing web site.

Keywords.

An article must always be centered on the keywords and keyword phrases. As each website visitor goes to a site, they are not just browsing but actually looking for a specific thing. When this happens, a searcher usually goes to a search engine and types in the keywords they are looking for (e.g. historic archery, firefighter retirement gift, electric torch mini). It could be anything they want.

The important thing is you must have your article that has the keywords that are related to your web site. There are many keywords tools in the internet that can help you out in determining what keywords and keyword phrases are mostly sought out. You can use these tools to determine what keywords to use and write about.

Keyword Density

Keyword density is the number of times a keyword or keyword phrase is used on an article. An article must have good keyword density for a search engine to feel its presence. The number varies depending on the number of words used in an article. An effective article must have a keyword density that is not too high or too low. With a very high density, the essence of the article is lost and may turn off a reader as well as the search engines. It comes off as overeager. A low number may be ignored by the search engines.

Great Article Content For Your Readers

Like what I mentioned above, you cannot just riddle an article with keywords. They must also be regarded as good reading materials for your readers. Your articles must be able to entertain people as well as provide good information and help for their needs. Articles should be well written with correct spelling and good grammar. If you want people to trust you, make your work good and well thought out.

You need to present great information and as many facts as you can to your readers. A well written article will boost your reputation as an expert in your chosen field or topic. As more people believe in you, they will be able to trust you and your products.

Links

And another important factor to remember. If you are going to submit articles to ezines or contribute your articles to newsletters and other sites, DON'T ever forget to include a link point to your site. A little resource box with a brief description of your site and you should always be placed right after your articles that you have submitted. If people like your articles, they will most likely click on the link directing them to your web site. It will also gain link juice for your websites to help your them rank higher in search engines.

Earn Money Online With These Jobs

By Sheela Jain

Everyone wants to find ways to work from home. Have you already found a way to earn money online? Are you tired of surfing on the web trying to find work that actually pays? Do you more than often run into sites that claim the knowledge to earn money online but cant deliver?

I got tired of wasting my time online and decided to take the matters in my own hand. My lifestyle did not permit me to leave the house to go for work. I had to make a living at the same time but was hardly getting the opportunities to work online.

Most of the time, these sites advertised big promises and paychecks but hardly delivered any results. Very often I would take the bait and buy their products only to find myself losing money instead of making money.

Since I was stuck at home I started researching and testing jobs online. I spent close to a year when I actually started to find jobs that actually pay you well. I tested theses sites over and over. I found them very consistent with job offers and pay.

Here are couple of websites that will get you started to make money from home right away:

1. Chacha.com is a good website to start. Chacha website is a very popular website. Thousands of people come and ask questions. Your job is to find the answer and you get paid for every answer you give. The questions are simple and usually the answers are readily available on Google so it is easy to make money here.

2. Keyforcash is another website where you get paid to do data entry.

You wont make lot of money on these sites but it is a good place to start.

Try to stay away from jobs that enforce strict rules and policies. There are companies who would demand that you work at odd hours or have no noise in your house etc. I try to stay away from such pressure jobs. I want to work on my hours and in my environment. It defeats the purpose of working from home if I have to work on specific hours and cant have family around

This is the reason I prefer data entry jobs that pay well. Though there are only few places you can find data entry jobs that pay well.

I work from home now. I know where to find enough well paying jobs. I hope these two sites save you the trouble of spending one year before you can start making money. Now you can start making money on these sites until you learn where to find jobs that pay you well.

Using The Web Analytics

By Justin Harrison

A website owner would know the significance of web analytics. You need to keep a track of number of people visiting your website, to do well with your website. To be able to do it, you would need a web analytics tool. One option would be to read through the log file. It is however a huge hard work to review the log book manually, for there may be so many records in it. For this reason, a web analytics tool is the right choice for you. With this tool, you would get clear and simple reports about your website traffic flow. You must know how to proceed with your web analytics and below is your guide to accomplish the same.

Firstly, you need to collect the data. In case you have a web analytics tool, it may well be collecting all the logs for you. You must remember to include all the parts of your website that may be collecting the data. Such parts may include CGI logs, Web logs, forms (email requests), and any other data that your website may be generating.

Once you have successfully collected the data, it needs to be transformed. It can be a tedious task to review the web logs manually. You would therefore need to transform the available data into an easily understandable format that can be manipulated. Most of the web analytics tools do this functionality as well. However, certain non-web log formatted data such as CGI may need you do the conversion.

Now that you have all the data available to you, in an easy to understand format; you need to start your analysis. This should be the most interesting part of your web analytics task. What you should be looking for is the trend in your web traffic. Following are some of the points to figure out the trend:

Do more visitors visit your site at a specific time? Which of your pages are the most commonly visited ones? How many pages does a visitor visit on an average? For how long does a visitor stay in the site? How much traffic do you get from the search engines? What are the exit pages of your website? Who has linked to your website?

After having done the data collection, and transformation of the same into reports, it is time to set new goals. Now that you know what your good and points are; you can build up on the good points and improve on the weak points. You may wish to add business links to your most visited pages, and promote the lesser visited pages. The idea should be to bank on your strengths to achieve more, and lift up your weakness to convert them into strengths.

Your potential visitors need to know what updates you have made to your website. Unless they are aware of the updates, your hard work would go in vain. This certainly calls for the promotion of your website, highlighting the newly made updates, to attract the visitors.

The above process is not a one time task, but you need to perform it continuously. The task is therefore a continuous process, and needs you to spend time on it regularly.

Home Based Residual Income

By Joe Cotroneo

The idea behind owning and working a home business is so that you are able to make the amount of money you have desired to live the life of your dreams. Many people work very hard to become a success, often putting in more hours at home then they would working for someone else. The key that many people are missing is that they need to be making residual income from home.

Residual income is that of funds that you are earning of a regular basis which requires little or no work at all on your part. A business should be created in order to do this, whereby you, as the business holder, establish customers and clients and sell a certain product or service to those customers in anticipation that they will return over and over again to purchase more items. If this procedure is set up on an automated basis, then this will lessen your workload even further and you will create a residual income for your business by trading in disposable commodities, ensuring that there is a need for the customer to return for more products or services.

There are on offer several different programs which you can use, or even buy into, to assist you in building your residual income from home. Prepaid Legal, for example is a subscription service, and along with other newsletters and member sites a monthly payment is made enabling you to keep them. So upon creation of the initial sale, the buyer will pay monthly to keep the service. This is one way of receiving a residual income.

Independent sales can also be used as a way to build residual income from home. Melalucea and MonAvie are two types of companies that you become an independent distributor for and in order for you customers to make purchases they sign up and become members in order to buy the products. The membership usually includes an autoship, which means that regardless of whether the customer has an order that month or not they are sent what they selected to have in their autoship and they are billed for it. The autoship helps to ensure that you have residual income each month.

Affiliate programs can also help you build a residual income from home. Affiliate programs are programs where you are selling products through referrals for different companies. You aren't necessarily selling anything; you are referring people to the company to make a purchase, sign up for membership and so on.

Building residual income from home can be as easy or as difficult as you wish to make it. This is because it is more about you and your ideas than the product you are promoting. It takes time, it does not happen overnight and conscientiousness and perseverance are required. If you have these attributes and build up a successful residual income from home, you will eventually be able to live your dream

Shocked by Free Stumblehere

By Hector Montoya

I was wrong to think I could not sell my van on stumblehere. It sold quickly and painlessly.

It all started when I posted on craigslist an ad for my 2000 van. Not long after I posted my ad I received a call from someone who had used stumblehere.com. I am sure that he was used to people not being happy about his phone call to them and I was along with that group.

I did not want to listen to some sales speach about how stumblehere was a place to sell my stuff. The last thing I wanted to do was post more ads.

But I finally listened and decided to try out the classified ad syndication. I learned that ad syndication is all about getting my ad on all of the high traffic sites. As long as my stuff sells I am happy.

I was finally interested. The way he explained it to me was that after I create a login and post a Betterpost ad that it will then be part of their syndication efforts. Knowing and after he told me that it is in their best interest to get it on as many websites as possible. To make me want to continue coming back and using them as my main ad website.

Stumblehere will be my classified site for life. I sold my vehicle and am excited it went soo smoothly. I did not think it would work, but it did.

Article Marketing Made Simple

Understand your area fully. Before writing your article you must be comfortable with the subject matter. If the content is a little out of your comfort zone, do some research first. You want to appear as an expert. If you don't, readers will not see you as such and will seek out other content written by someone more knowledgeable.

Create a plan. Are you going to write one article per week or one each day? Think about how much time and energy you want to put into your article writing and for what purpose. If you simply want to write and publish your work, you may only want to do a little bit each day. Once you have a complete work, then you would submit to websites or blogs. On the other hand, if you are looking for improved rankings or sales from your article marketing, your publishing schedule may need to be more aggressive.

Looking After Your eBay Donor Base

By Mark Randall

The vast majority of people who buy things on eBay are customers. But as any successful eBay businessperson knows, they aren't just customers. You must remember that the customer is king, the key to maintaining a great feedback rating, and the key to repeat business that can keep an eBay fundraising venture profitable. Cultivating ongoing relationships with satisfied customers is the key to a sustainable business.

To those who sell on eBay to benefit nonprofit causes, customers are even more special: they are donors as well as buyers. They're people who keep you going and make your activities possible. As anyone who has participated in one of eBay's community forums can tell you, the internet is a wonderful place to develop close relationships with individuals who share a common goal or interest, in other words, develop relationships with a wide online community.

On eBay and the internet, caring for and nurturing donors is as important as it is in the offline world. eBay gives you several ways to maintain good relations with other members. The most important is eBay's well-known feedback system, which rewards trustworthiness and punishes dishonesty.

You can also volunteer information that helps your donors providing them with the URLs of web sites they might like to visit, on eBay or elsewhere, or answering questions on the message boards. At the very least, you'll gain the respect of your donors by responding quickly to e-mail inquiries, and making payment and shipping easy. It's all about helping people to do the right thing.

Customer Support

If you're affiliated with a charity, you already know about growing your donor base. It boils down to being nice to your donors: inviting them, feeding them, rewarding them, and giving them special access and possibly other perks.

On the web (and by extension, on eBay), nurturing donors is the same as providing a high-Ievel of customer service. But customer service on the Web is different than in other venues.

Nonprofits, like other organizations that sell on eBay or online, need to take into account the special way online consumers behave. In the traditional offline world, customer service is a matter of answering questions and solving problems with orders. Customer service representatives make themselves available to field questions and problems as they arise.

Customer service on the internet isn't a matter of publishing a phone number or e-mail address and waiting for consumers to send you questions. Such basics are important, but it's more a matter of making information proactively available to buyers. The customer is in charge on the internet, not the seller. Customers choose to view your items for sale or visit your web site; they choose to make a bid or a donation, or go elsewhere with their money.

Many eBay sellers who receive questions from prospective bidders answer those questions quickly. But they go a step further, also. They also publish the questions and answers as additions to their sales descriptions. This reduces the number of similar questions you receive, which saves your volunteers some work; it also raises the level of customer service you provide, which makes prospective buyers more likely to purchase from you.

When you receive a question from a bidder through eBay's message system, you have the option of simply responding to the buyer privately, or adding the question and your response to the body of your sales description.
