Money Top 10

Guest Post by David Brown

Is there a better way to express yourself and interact with unknown yet like-minded people than starting a blog? Perhaps not. Blogs allow an ordinary man to write the story of his life, share his thoughts with people he doesn’t know and even make a living out of it. This has made blogs more than a phenomenon these days. However, not every blog is a success. While some blogs enjoy enormous popularity, others are not equally well known and some fail to attract the attention of the readers completely. Clearly, a huge number of people plough on with a lot of determination as they love blogging but only a few taste the kind of success that they dream of. So if you are contemplating on starting a blog then make sure that you know the ground rules. Here are a few things you should know before you put your right foot forward:

Develop a niche
The world of blogging is a busy place overstocked with the stuffs offered by amateurs as well as professionals. Making your own personal space here can be a challenging thing. It is generally agreed that to build a huge and loyal audience you need to have a niche. It is very important for you to focus on something in particular and have firsthand experience as well as expertise on the subject. This will help you to present things in a creative and interesting manner. On the other hand, if you try to cover life, universe and everything then most probably you won’t be heard.

Content is the king
One of the most important ways to build a successful blog is to provide your readers something that is really intriguing and hard to find anywhere on the web. Fresh and innovative content should be presented in a unique manner in order to attract readers. Top bloggers always make a buzz because they are trendsetters. They focus on introducing new things, stuffs that are unheard of to attract the readers. If you publish bulk articles on topics that others have covered then it’s not wise to expect huge traffic. Also make sure that your blog is free from duplicate content. Major search engines like Google, Yahoo, MSN etc. hate duplicate content and will punish your blog by not indexing it.

Awesome Marketing
Having good content is a primary requirement but it might not be very effective without proper marketing. Make people aware of what you are offering with effective web marketing. This primarily involves SEO link building. It means your blog should have backlinks from top quality blogs and sites. This will increase the search engine ranking of your blog. If your blog appears in the first few pages of the search results for certain keywords then it will possibly have a decent number of visitors. Also make it a point to promote your blog in popular social networking sites like Twitter, Facebook etc. Having presence in social content sharing sites (for instance, Hubpages) also helps in a major way. Your blog will climb up the ladder of popularity pretty soon if you follow the above tips.

Patience is the key
Before starting a blog it’s important to realize that blogs do not become successful overnight. For many blogs, it takes years to achieve even moderate success. You have to spend quite some time on marketing the blog and tweaking its design. Moreover, to enhance your chances of building a successful blog you should post everyday. Most successful blogs publish more than one article daily. Initially you might not feel motivated to post heavily since you won’t see any immediate results. But understand that the posting more content will increase recognition among the search engines. You must Continue updating your blog and wait patiently. Chances are high that readers and search engines will eventually embrace your blog.

Think twice before quitting your full time job
We understand that you are really passionate about blogging but how rational is it to quit your regular job for it? Blogging is a very uncertain proposition. It works for some and not for others in spite of their best efforts. So leaving your full time job can actually push you towards financial crisis and debt. To play safe you should set aside some time for your blog on a daily basis. Once it gets popular and generates stable revenue, you can contemplate on saying goodbye to your boss.
Are you beginning to think that blogging is a psychological and physical strain? Well, you are mistaken. Blogging can be a very enjoyable, rewarding and satisfying experience if you remember what you have read. Go ahead; maybe it’s your turn to be the winner. Good luck.

YouTube is one of the most common and biggest social networking websites online today. Millions of web surfers browse through the YouTube site monthly in search of videos that in their chosen niches. There are traffic generating potentials from YouTube but you may not be able to leverage this fact if you don't know the right steps to take and how to perform certain simple traffic-oriented tasks using your YouTube videos. If you had been reading how lots of other website owners had been getting loads of traffic from YouTube, it is time for you to join the successful train and start experiencing very meaningful traffic to your website from YouTube. The right step to take are outlined in this brief discuss.

What You Must Know In Order To Drive More Traffic to Your Site Via YouTube

It isn't rocket science to drive traffic from YouTube irrespective of the type of business you are doing. Saying this is important because some site owners may unnecessarily be intimated by the huge results of those that had been there before them. The skill you have or whatever qualification you may have wouldn't count if you fail to read and digest the following three important YouTube traffic tips.

1 - The first thing is to submit your videos to YouTube. Don't be deterred if you don't know how to create and upload any video at the moment because it doesn't take more a couple of minutes. Essentially you will need free 'Camstudio' which is readily available on the internet to create any prolific video to be shown on YouTube. If you are among those internet marketers that still find it difficult to join the social marketing 'war-fare'; you have to wake up today if you really want your online business to survive.

While using YouTube as a traffic-driving medium, you have to ensure you give your videos adequate titles. This is important because there are lots of marketers that make the mistake of titling their YouTube videos for the search engines. This may not yield the desired popularity for such video because the search engines are becoming smarter than they were few months back. The best option is to give your videos proper titles that will appeal to humans and be sure of its popularity once it starts getting shared and voluntarily linked to on the internet.

The basics concept of any video you upload online should be to either entertain or educate so you have to carefully make it worth your viewers' while. If you have some educational or informative tips to give, nothing prevents you from sitting in front of your computer and recording 2 or 3 minutes clean video of yourself talking. This is quite acceptable online and can go viral as long as you have useful or informative content in the video.

2 - You shouldn’t forget to include the link to your website or blog in any video you create and upload to the YouTube. This is very important especially if your sole aim of uploading such video is to drive traffic to your online or offline business. The time you spent on the video creation may have been wasted if you fail to provide link back to your site so that those that view your videos can click-in to your blog or site to see more of your offerings. It is common to believe that many viewers wouldn’t type in the URL in the YouTube videos but the truth is that many actually do.

You Can Create a Community of YouTube Video Viewers

3 - This is similar to asking potential clients to subscribe to your newsletter but in this case, they would be subscribing to your YouTube channel so that they will know when you post new videos. This can effectively bring repeated traffic to your site especially if you have very insightful videos on display. You can simply ask people to subscribe to your YouyTube video channel by mentioning it at the beginning and the end of your videos but be sure to make your videos are informative as possible.

If you're new to making money online then I have three words that will hopefully transform the way you look at your new business. This article will help you make money online in record time and I only wish I had this information when I started out!

Build Your List

All the top internet marketers out there have the ability to generate wealth on demand and the reason they can do this is because they have spent time to get people onto their mailing list.

This means that when they release new information products, they instantly have a list of prospects to sell items to. This usually means an instant pay off every time a product is launched and is extremely powerful.

How do you Build a Sizable list?

Building a list is actually pretty easy. Here are the steps that you need to follow:-

1. Create a one page web site where you offer a free gift in exchange for the name and email address of your visitors

2. Create the gift that you are going to give away to your visitors – often this simply needs to be a short report. There's no need to create a whole book to give away. Generally speaking, less is more, because people are always after quick fixes to their problems.

3. Drive traffic to your one page web site

And that's really all there is to it.

So, let's assume that we were in the male dating niche. We might have a one page web site that offered a free e-book that people could download. The e-book might tell them how to approach any woman confidently and successfully.

Of course, a male who's having dating problems would visit the page, see the free e-book and feel enticed to enter his name and email address into the opt-in box.

How do you Make Money from your List?

Here's the clever part. You can use software services called autoresponders that allow you to add emails in advance of them being sent. This means that you can set up a year's worth of emails to be sent out, sit back and let the whole thing work on autopilot.

So, firstly, you should focus on providing top quality information to your prospects on your list. Make sure that they enjoy receiving emails from you and that you're providing real value and helping them to solve their problems.

After the initial relationship building stage, you can then start make soft and hard sells of products. You can either sell your own products or you can be an affiliate for products that other people have created.

So continuing our example from earlier: Once the prospect is on your list, he'd received some really helpful dating tips from you that he could go out in the “field” and try out on women. After a week or so, you'd then recommend a product, or mention your own product, that is specifically aimed at helping men have more success with women.

Of course you'd mention this product in each of the further emails that you send out.

The Money Making Machine....

And that's really all there is to making money online – it's not rocket science – but learning the skills to get everything set up the first time round takes a little learning.

If you want a rock-star lifestyle then I truly believe that internet marketing is your quickest ticket. If you just take the time to learn the skills you can really create a desirable lifestyle for yourself.

If you'd like to learn step by step how to create an online business that I've just described here then enter your name and email address here: http://www.fromzerotowebsite.com and I'll teach you personally myself for free.

You have a wonderful blog that you have started recently. But you are worried about the number of visits or traffic to your blog and almost quit blogging. Well, if you work hard and explore other successful bloggers you will know a lot on how to run your blog successfully with a good number of visitors.

I'm going to share how you can increase your traffic by commenting on others' blogs.

How many of you comment on other blogger's posts in your niche?

Do you know commenting on other blogs in your niche is one of the most important things for a blogger?

Following are the reasons why every blogger should comment on the blogs of his/her niche.

• The immediate benefit you will get is traffic to your blog. You might be following so many other things like link exchange, submitting your blog to blog directories etc to drive traffic to your site. But none of them will get you the 'quality' traffic. Commenting on the blogs of your niche will help you get the quality traffic.
• What makes you comment on other's blog? The obvious answer is their posts. So, you would obviously go through their posts before posting a comment. By going through different posts on different blogs, there is a great chance of you getting some good ideas for you to write a great post on your blog. Reading that many posts will also make you know how to write better and attracting posts.
• Post valid and good comments regularly. By dooing so, there are great chances of people getting interested to know you. Make friends with them. This helps your blog getting linked by them.
• If you keep commenting, you will also get more comments to your blog. Whatever you put out comes back to you. So, keep commenting.
• Search for new blogs in your niche once in a while and comment on them too. This helps you expose yourself to new people in your niche.
• Add value to the conversation with your comment.

But wait! This is not everything. There are a few other things to consider before you comment.

• Your comments should not be like "great post", "nice blog", "Thanks for the great post" etc. You'll be considered a comment spammer if you do so.
• Your comments should be related to the topic.
• Tell him what you like and why you like.
• Don't always put a link to your blog in your comment signature. Add the link back to your blog only if you feel it is relevant to the post.
• Don't add more comments on the same post. It can hurt you more than it helps.

Blogging is not just about what you want to say. What good does it make you, if you don't have visitors to read your blog. So, reach out to people, expose yourself to new friends, new ideas.
Have fun!

How did you get benefited by commenting? Share any other practices that I missed?

There are many ways to make money online. But this article contains the method I personally use to make $100 per day.

Step1: Decide two ways of making money. I personally make money from list building and affiliate marketing. I work full time focusing on building my list and promoting the affiliate product.

Step2: Write a free ebook and giveaway to the people who subscribe to your list. For your affiliate product, create a blog with 5 articles related the product, including a review of the product.

Step3: Initially, dedicate your time for both list building and promoting affiliate products. Subscribe to the newsletters of 5 experts in your niche and observe how they are promoting their
products. Make a list of their promotional activities. Start implementing them.

Make a list of promotional campaigns that worked for you. Repeat the methods to promote your site.

Once you have a list of 200, you can start making money by promoting your products to your subscribers. Communicate with your subscribers and try to offer the products they desire.

Once you start making a steady income of $200 per month (you can achieve this in a month), focus on promoting the affiliate product. Implement the same marketing methods that you used for building your list. Apart from that, invest $50 - $100 per month on paid advertising.

Do you want to know what 90% of millionaire level marketing experts use for traffic? It's not f'ree traffic, it's paid traffic.

I extensively invest on banner advertising in niche blogs. They do not cost more than $50 per month and I make a minimum of 5 sales from each blog.

Let me tell you another secret. Try to promote products related to dating, fitness and forex. Write 5 articles daily with a link to your blog in the resource box and submit them to ezinearticles.com. These niches do so well in ezinearticles.com that you can easily get 100
views per article.

Let us make some calculations. Let us assume that if 100 people read your article, 10 of them will click on your link. You can expect 1 sale for every 100 visitors. This means that you can make a sale every alternative day. Now, if you get a commission of $20 per sale, you can
easily make $1000 per month.

Repeat, repeat and repeat. Repeat whatever worked for you. Within a couple of months (It took 5 months for me), you can easily make $3000 per month.

It's no longer secret that facebook is the worlds largest networking site but unfortunatly, most internet marketers and web surfers are yet to fully realize the immense possibilities of marketing with facebook. If you have a facebook account, you may not know that millions of other users are logging on to their facebook accounts on daily basis. This amazing social networking site can be used as a very potent business networking ground if only you know what to do and which steps that are right.

If you want to startup a marketing campaign with facebook, it is very essential that you create a separate facebook business page for your business on facebook even if you already have a personal facebook account. This should be the vital first step. Doing this is important because your business should be separated from your personal profile or in you may discover that visitors could begin to socialize and share personal pictures on their personal facebook pages. This certainly isn’t the best practice if you are on facebook for marketing purposes. You simply have to give your business a different identity from your personal facebook activities.

The need to access the pages of facebook is important because you have to create your business profile in this page and begin to project what your business stands with great focus and determination. It is even very interesting to note that there are lots of advertising tools you would use in facebook pages for better optimizations of your marketing campaign. You really have to take advantage of these valuable tools while starting out your marketing with facebook. You shouldn’t get scared when we mentioned these facebook pages because it doesn’t require any special skill to set up. You can easily set it up the same way you got your personal profile page up.

Marketing with facebook is even made much easier by the free access to visitors analytics tools and a precise report on your fan base as well as their activites. This will help you to know the kind of persons or businesses that are following your updates. It is very easy for you to constantly send your updated facebook pages to other facebook accounts that are following your page. The importance of sending these sorts of message to your fans is more appreciated when you want to alert them of certain new developments in your business. That way, you would be sure that they got your message and the possibility of getting positive response is always higher if your fan base constitutes mostly of visitors who are interested in your kind of business.

There are lots of innovative ideas that are being added to facebook by the owners and the employees just to make sure those businesses such as yours get the very best from facebook marketing. You don’t have to let this unique and explosive marketing avenue slip because over 400 million users are huge enough to accommodate any kind of business. There are lots of Facebook Marketing Solutions to choose from such as the Direct Targeted Marketing Tools and the Engagement Ads. You also have more options such as commenting, fanning, sharing, applications, events and so on. If you hadn’t looked at the possibility of marketing with facebook, you may also need to know that these marketing tools would cost you little or nothing to utilize.

In this post I'm going to show you how you can get started making money online in as short time as possible. This process is one that I've been using for the past year to make money online and “fire” my boss.

The great thing about this way of working is that you don't need to have any special knowledge, skills or experience. In fact, if you're not comfortable with doing anything that I mention in this article then you can simply find somebody to do it for you by outsourcing the work to a site like http://www.elance.com.

The First Step to Making Money Online is Finding your Profitable Passion

Our ultimate goal is to create a residual online business that brings in money while we're asleep. It sounds like a far-fetched idea, but let me reassure you that some of my friends are actually doing 7 figures a year online and they really do earn while they're asleep.

Obviously it takes a bit of work to get to 7 figures a year! And it all starts with finding your profitable passion. There is one question that I need you to ask yourself...It's this: How can I help others?

The amount of money in your bank account is in direct proportion to the amount of value that you can provide for others. I want you to stop thinking about yourself and start thinking for others.

What Problems Can You Solve for Other People?

Let me give you an example. Years ago I used to suffer from quite severe acne. Now through a heck of a lot of research, trial and error I actually found a way to heal my poor skin naturally. This knowledge would be hugely valuable to other acne sufferers out there.

In fact, I'm willing to say, that if I took some time to figure out a way of reaching these people with acne problems then it would be very profitable for me.

What problems can you solve? What do you have experience in? And, if you can't think of anything, then ask yourself what you'd be willing to research to help others.

Once you've found your “profitable passion” then it's simply a matter of reaching your target market.

Broadcast your Message through your Web Site...

Now it's simply a case of setting up your web site and also setting up what's called a profit funnel.

Your web site should really have one goal in mind – and that's to capture the names and email addresses of visitors to your site. Once you have people on your list then you're in a great position to push them down what's called a “profit funnel”.

A profit funnel is simply a series of messages that you send to your list. Some of those messages will contain valuable free information (in fact, I always recommend sending lots of free, valuable information for a couple of weeks after your visitors have joined your list) and other messages will contain sales pitches to products that you have created yourself, or that other people own.

Of course, if you sell somebody else's product then you're entitled to a commission.

The Great Thing about this Business is...

The really great aspect of this business is that once everything is set up then it truly runs on autopilot. Can you imagine what it would be like to have a web site and a fully fledged profit funnel making you money each day without having to go to work?

It's a dream that is absolutely possible, you just need to understand the system and then implement it.

Remember – provide real value in abundance, and you'll get even more value in return! And the wealth will flow to you in streams.

If you want to increase your search engine rankings then you need good backlinks. This process is also known as search engine optimisation or off page seo. The more relevant your website is for certain keywords and the more relevant backlinks you have to that specific page, the higher your rankings will be in the search engines.

The quality of your backlinks is way more important than the quantity. You need relevant backlinks from sites that have authority as well as page rank. The best way to achieve this would be to develop your own personal link wheel that you have control over. You can then build backlinks to your website for free, and increase the rankings to the first page.

The sites you can use for this process are the popular web 2.0 sites such as squidoo, hubpages, blogger and wordpress, along with many others. If you open up an account on each, you will then be able to post content on this site which will link back to your own. These specific websites have huge trust within the search engines and can pass on trust to your own site.

Although the main domain of these web 2.0 sites are usually high, this does not mean that your article page will have the same. All articles that you upload to these sites will start off with zero page rank so you will actually have to build backlinks to these in order to increase the value of the backlinks to your main site.

If you are not sure of what a link wheel is then here goes. A link wheel is a set of popular online properties that are linked together in a strategic way that maximises the impact on the rankings of the main website. I build my link wheels in a way that all other sites would link in a wheel effect and link to my main site from each. I would never link back to these web 2.0 sites from my main site to ensure one way linking across the whole network.

None of your online properties should have two way links. For example: If i had 5 web 2.0 sites and 1 main website (my money site). I would link property 1 to 2, 2 to 3, 3 to 4, 4 to 5 and then 5 back to 1. This creates the link wheel. Then i would have a link back to my main site from each property. All the backlinks must include the keyword you are targeting as anchor text.

You can actually create a link wheel for each post on your blog or for each keyword you are targeting but the most important thing of all when using this method is that the content you post on these web 2.0 sites are unique. You can either re-write a blog post 5 times and post one on each or you can use an article spinner to speed up the process. If it spins to 80% unique then that's fine.

The key to success when using this method would be to then build backlinks to your web 2.0 sites. This will increase the page rank of each property and pass on link juice to your main website. Its best to use automated tools for this kind of job as you will not be able to keep up. This whole process is to increase the rankings of your main site to the first page of search results, for free, unless you pay for automated tools to speed things up.

Watch the video below to gain a better understanding of how to build a link wheel for your own website to increase your search engine rankings:
