The economy is really getting to most people now. This is not an American problem anymore. It is affecting the entire world.

Lehman Brothers closed their doors and as I watched the news, I saw executives with boxes of personal stuff coming through the doors for the last time. Some say, when interviewed, that they did not see this coming.

Clickbank Tips.

Once the housing market started going down, it was a certainty that this too would follow. So people are frantically looking for a means to replace their income and the Internet is the driving force. But what do you do when you have relied on a weekly income by a company to now rely on something so much more uncertain.
If you are new to the Internet, you will have to know that there are Internet Marketers that have already secured their place in the market. However, that does not mean that you cannot find your own niche. In fact, that is how you will be successful online and finding your own niche is the key.

Your next step is to become an affiliate, which means that you are going to sell somebody else’s product. You have no time to create your own especially if you are at the point of desperation.
However, there are 5 simple questions that you must ask yourself before you begin to tread on this holy ground:

1. What kind of value does the product have?

You want to sell a product that you can put your reputation on. You don’t want to sell something that you cannot stand on. So do your research and find out if the product owner has a valid refund policy and how many average monthly refunds have been received.

2. Is this an automated program?

You want to be involved with an affiliate program that you don’t have to provide any type of customer support. You also want to have good marketing resources from the product owner. You want to market a digital product that customers can easily download upon purchase. You want to get paid automatically and be rewarded for the sales that you make.

3. Is it possible to earn residual income?

I do market other programs that are not residual, but I find that these are only one time purchases. You may not see that customer again. However, residual income, which is also called passive income, is better because once you get that customer and the customer is satisfied with the product or service, this will be your customer for as long as they stay subscribed and you get commissions from what they pay monthly over and over again. It is quite similar to an insurance salesman. Once he or she sells that policy, they gain residual income for the lifetime of the customer. The Internet also has affiliate programs with residual income opportunities.

Life Time Commissions is an affiliate directory that lists a variety of different residual income. You can search for the name online.

4. Is the product something that I would enjoy selling or believe in?

If you have knowledge about something, you are more apt to want to present it to someone. It is like watching a movie and loving the movie so much that you tell everyone you know about the movie and you are not even getting paid to do that. Can you imagine getting the word out for something that you really enjoy or like? This is how you should choose your affiliate product because it will make you want to stay committed and focused in your marketing efforts.

Make Money Easy online.

5. Is there any assistance or support provided?

A lot of affiliate product owners do not provide email support, but they provide a log in website that you can go to find marketing materials as well as post a support ticket with any questions or comments. Not all of them do this. So if you are the kind of person that wants to be hand-held, you may want to look into other means of support such as specific niche forums. You can actually go to forums and post your questions and there are always people who are willing to answer them. You will also learn a lot from the forum and get great marketing tips and advice in your online business.

So if you are a newbie affiliate and want to enter the Internet marketplace for the first time, you don’t have to be afraid. There are a lot of willing marketers that want to give back because they have been where you are at right now. The search engine is a good tool for you to search for whatever you need. Explore the horizons of the Internet. It may be that the door that was just closed end up to be a blessing. Sometimes, we get too comfortable in our JOBS and doors have to be closed for us to take chances and grab other opportunities for growth. This might be one of them.

Google Adsense allows you to dynamically serve content-relevant advertisements on web pages.

Do You have Adsense on your Sites and you are not yet making good revenue? Knowing how to position Adsense Channels and Optimizing Your Website will play a major role in determining your Earnings.

Adsense Channels

What are Channels? Channels enable you to view detailed reporting about the performance of specific pages and ad units. When a channel is selected Google modifies the java script to include additional tracking. The additional tracking information allows you to track a variety of metrics across their sites. Channels can be used to measure ad efficiency and performance on various domains, revenue differences with respect to various ad sizes, or even placement. By assigning each group of pages to a specific channel and compare the results in a custom channel reports, you can work at increasing Adsense Revenue.

Optimizing Adsense

Google determines the content of the ads that are shown. If Google's Adsense Spider hasn't crawled your site and determined the contents, public service ads may be served. Public service ads will not accrue any Adsense earnings if clicked. Therefore, Google allows you to designate alternate ads. Alternate ads allows you to utilize the ad space in the event that Google is unable to serve targeted ads to your webpages. That means the advertising space can be used effectively by specifying an alternate image, HTML page or Ad server. Follow the following guidelines to optimize your website and ensure that targeted and relevant content adsense are served:



The contents on your webpages where the Google Ads are served should be static and never dynamic.
Ensure that the robot.txt does not prevent your webpages from being spidered. If your robot.txt file is not accessible, then Google might not determine the contents of your webpages to distribute quality content ads. Then robot.txt file will need to be removed or edited.
If your website contains frames, select the "framed page" checkbox when generating the adsense layout code in your adsense account.
The contents of the page and title should contain contextual words or relative keywords indicating harmony through out your site. Google Adsense Spider feeds on contents to stream targeted ads on your site.
In all, Adsense can provide great income for you with your content driven website. Implementing and maintaning Google Adsense on your content site requires very little effort and will bring a steady stream of additional revenue for you.

So go on and Optimize Your Adsense for cool cash in return.

Top 10 Tips To Take Your Business’s Blog From Web Zero To Web Hero


Part One: Tips 1-3
If you are deciding on whether a blog is something you should incorporate into your business please read my other blog article “Are You Using a Blog to Explode Your Business Like Everybody Else?” and/or this article in Business Week:“Social Media Will Change Your Business” If you are ready to take your blog to the next level and get an edge on your competition, this is the series of posts for you. I had to break it up into a series because of the amount of valuable information that I am giving you. I will not only give you the top 10 tips for making your blog successful, I will outline the steps for each tips to get you started. So let’s get started.

#1 Read And Comment On Other Blogs That Are Relevant To Your Industry.

First let’s create a time-saving system for you to read and comment on blogs. If you are already an avid blog reader of industry blogs and already can pick out about 3 to 5 favorites then that is your first step. If you do not yet have any favorite blogs related to your industry use Google Blog Search and type in industry related keywords to find some that you like. You can always change which blogs you read as well as the number of blogs later if you find blogs you like better. The easiest way to read the blogs on a daily basis is with Google Reader (make it your home page) You can add the blogs to Google Reader by going to the blog and subscribing thru their RSS feed (look for an icon like this ) and once you click the icon click add to Google Reader. Once you have the blogs in Google Reader you can read over the posts you would like to comment on and then click on the posts title (which is a link to the blog post) and you will be able to comment there.
Why do you want to comment on other blog’s you may ask?

1. It builds you and your business’s credibility: People that are interested in the topic you that is covered will not only leave comments themselves but, peruse the comments of others. If you leave a good comment they will remember it. Bottom Line is that you and your company begin to get noticed.

2. Establishes the first step in communication with the blog’s author. This is good for many reasons. The blog’s author may now check out your blog and comment on your posts as well. ( The more comments your blog posts have, The more credible they seem.)This also could lead to a possible Joint ventures and/or guest post’s on each others blogs.

3. Provides a link back to your blog. Much like many of the social sites, a lot of blogs have no-follow links. This basically means that it does not help your page rank with search engines. That however does not mean that it is not a good link. If you ask me any link from a relevant site that can bring my business blog traffic is a good link.

What is a “Good Comment” on a Business Blog ?
Here are several ideas to get you started on leaving “Good Comments”

1.Expand on the topic in two paragraphs or less. Both the readers and the blog’s author will appreciate this as long as you your expansion sticks to the posts main points. You can validate the post with your own experiences and facts. This type of comment helps you further establish your credibility.

2. Add a link to relevant content on the same topic. Use a link to your own blog sparingly as the readers and author may take this as you spamming their blog.

3. Disagree. I know what your thinking, wouldn’t the author be upset and not even publish my comment? Not necessarily. If you validate your argument with sound logic and facts they will probably not only publish your comment but seek you out for more information. Guest Post Opportunity? In the cyber world of blogging it is very hard to determine someones sensitivity or pride level. If you have been reading the blog for awhile and have seen other argumentative comments published, then there is a good chance yours will to. If you know your comment is purely constructive than go ahead and post it.

4. Ask A Question. Get the author to elaborate on his points a little further in the comments or maybe he will create another post that answers your question.

Bonus Tip: Do not leave just your business name in the name field in the comment form. This is too anonymous. Leave your name and business name in the same line like this: John Doe - Acme Supplies. This accomplishes linking you to your company as well as not looking like a spammer by putting your company’s link in the comment text box. Your name will link to your companies website or blog, depending on which you put in the website field of the comment form.

#2 Make Your Blog As User-Friendly As Possible

Integrate good design and functionality in your blog. I recommend using WordPress over the other existing blogging platforms. It has a lot more options and flexibility than the rest. I also recommend either springing for a good premium template or hiring a web design firm to create a custom template for you. Even when purchasing a premium template it’s design and functionality should be customized for your needs.

The same principles that are used for good web design should also be used for the design of your blog. Your visitors should know what your blog is all about within a few seconds of landing on the blog’s home page. They should never be more than three clicks from the homepage.Navigation links or bars should be displayed attractively and prominently on your blog. Visitors should never feel like they are “leaving your site” when they go to any of the pages in your site. The design should stay relatively the same throughout.

Wordpress has a lot of available “plug-ins” and “widgets” that you can place in your sidebars, headers, or footers, I recommend using only the ones that enhance the visitors experience. If you use to many your site can begin to look overly busy or cluttered. A good technique in regards to “plug-ins” and “widgets” is to spread them out. You can put the most important ones in your header or sidebar ( anything that makes you more money or increases traffic substantially like opt-in forms or social media tools) and any others that you feel are valuable in the footer. For Examples of two very successful blogs that do this with their design are ProBlogger and John Cow.

#3 Post Great Content

Would you continue to go to a store that sells junk? Even if that junk was free? Than do not put Junk content on your blog. If you really want to talk about what you did over the weekend or the last movie you saw ( unless your business is rating movies ), then get a personal blog separate from your business blog that you can turn into a personal journal. Your business blog is ther for all or any of following purposes only:

1. To Make Money
2. To share your expertise in your field
3. To build your company’s brand
4. To keep your blog’s visitors updated with relevant information about your company or industry.
5. To build traffic to your company’s main site.

Keep these points in mind whenever you add a post or other content to your blog, if it is not accomplishing any of the above you probably should scratch it.
Take a look at your competition’s websites and blogs. If they are successful, What are they doing? Do not reinvent the wheel! What you can do is improve the wheel by giving more value to your blog’s visitors. Your posts should be entertaining and informative.

In the next post we will cover these blog exploding tips…
#4 Post To Your Blog Frequently
#5 Search Engine Optimize Your Blog
#6 Track Your Blogs Success

Then in part three we really turn it up a notch…
#7 Use Eye Catching Headlines
#8 Use the right URL For Your Blog
# 9 Share Your Blog With The World
# 10 Seek Out Joint Venture Opportunities with other Bloggers.
Bonus Tip: Be Creative And Incorporate Other Forms Of Media On Your Blog

Article Marketing is one of the most important aspects of doing business on the Internet. It can make or break you. You may be one of the best writers around, but then as the popular saying goes ‘talent is no good if you cannot showcase it or market it well’.

In my web based business, I have found that making money online is easy only if you know how to use the internet marketing skills to the best of your advantage. The best, lucrative and zero risk way to success in the world of internet marketing, blogging, or whatever term fancies you; is through article marketing.

Article strategy

I have found that article marketing appeals to the ‘right kind of target audience’ who wants to read what you have to offer; it could be a piece of information, a product review or even an interesting dope on the dinner you had last night.

Your site’s Page Rank (the quality links which point to your site) depends a lot on article marketing. The tiny resource book in the article directory which leads the reader to your blog or website has more chances to be clicked than some random entry in a social bookmarking site.

Since article marketing is such a strong part of search engine optimization and one of the most powerful source of traffic, isn’t more the merrier? Wouldn’t it be better if you do more submissions to as many article directories as possible? You bet! The more the number of submissions, the more the traffic and the more the back links that you’d get to your site.

However, manually submitting to every directory would take a fair part of your productive time. The solution lies in automated article marketing submission.


Article Marketing Automation is the best way to get free content to your site and expand your site to a growing network of directories and the established ones who are interested in your theme of content. As of now there are 2000 sites in the Article Marketing Automation network but it has plans to have a whopping 60000 sites as a mission.

Article Marketing Automation is your best bet for better search engine rankings. Unlike some article directories which are known to spam content or give broken content in a bid to give mass submission, Article Marketing Automation is 100 percent spam free and has a reputation to maintain. I have benefited enormously through Article Marketing and have seen how my work has finally got noticed by a lot of right people.

Do you want to know how to set up Article Automation on your Wordpress Blog?
