Making Money From Blog

Making Monthly Income From Blog

Blogging is quickly becoming a good way to make money on the Internet and having an established blog with a large number of RSS subscribers and repeat visitors can be worth a small fortune to you today and can help you towards your ultimate goal of creating true financial freedom.

Here are four good ways you can get paid to blog:

1. PayPerPost

Are you familiar with this company?
PayPerPost.com is a marketplace that brings websites and blogs together and you can get paid to write comments about services, products and websites that you love.

There are people that earn $500 a month or more just writing on projects that are advertised at PayPerPost.com.
Advertisers are willing to pay you for your opinion on various topics and it is as simple as searching through a list of opportunities, making a blog posting, getting your content approved, and then getting paid for it.

2. Contact other blog owners

Another thing you can do is contact blog owners and offer to write content for them. There are plenty of bloggers who just do not have time to keep up with their blogs on a daily or even weekly basis and this is where you can help them out.

Offer to write blog posts of a few hundred words for them on a consistent basis, set up a quick pay page with your PayPal button on it that they can pay you and you are off and running.
With literally millions of blogs available, there is no shortage of potential customers for you.

3. Start a number of your own blogs and monetize them

Another way to make money blogging is to start various blogs of your own on themes that you have an interest in or expertise on. You can take what you know and turn it into a real moneyspinning business.

The way you make money on a blog of your own is to monetize it with various products that people can buy. You can join affiliate programs and put pay per click, pay per lead, and pay per sale products on your blog. Then anytime a person completes the desired response you earn a commission.

Certainly the easiest of all affiliate programs to earn money on is Google Adsense. It is very easy to add javascript to your blog once you are an affiliate for the Google Adsense program and it is completely free to join.

4. Sell advertising space on your blogs

There are many other blog owners and webmasters who would be willing to pay for a text ad or banner on your blog if it is popular and attracts quality traffic.

This is a very easy way to make money once your blog has established itself, because once you place the ad you can set the billing to go on a subscription basis, and every month you get a recurring income for keeping their ad on your blog.

You can also charge different rates depending on the location of the banner. Banners at the top of the page should be charged at a higher rate than a banner on the side or at the bottom because it is one of the first things visitors see when they land on the page.

There is no shortage of ways to get paid to blog whether it be working for other people or starting your own and then setting up another and another.

Blogging has become an exciting industry over recent years and what the future holds in store no one knows. But one thing is for sure - as long as there are blogs, there will be lots of people making good money getting paid to blog.

Bring Traffic to Your Blog

Bring Traffic to Your Blog in Easy-steps

Traffic is the essential element to making money online. Major traffic is what you are going to need to be able to make a full time income using the internet. Here are three easy steps you need to take in order to get major traffic to your blog.

Great content is the first step for bringing major traffic to your blog. Make sure you go to great lengths to make your blog stand out from others in your niche. Let your visitors know how your blog is different and better and what it has to offer that other blogs don’t.

When you offer your visitors great content on your blog, they will most likely return in the future and even spread the word about your blog. Very well written articles designed to help your visitors solve a problem is a good example of great content. ‘How To’ articles are very effective tools for capturing more traffic.

Make sure that your visitors know that they are getting all this content for free. You are going to give out free information that you could easily charge for. Another idea to attract more traffic is to add free weekly or monthly bonuses.

That brings me to the next step on how to get major traffic to your blog. Attract attention.
There are many ways to do this. Submit your articles to the article directories leaving a link to your blog in the authors resource box, make valuable contributions in forums with a link to your blog in the signature box, and social bookmark all of your blog posts.

Another effective way to attract attention to your great content on your blog is to email your peers. Let them know that you just wrote something that his/her visitors may find helpful. They may just put a link on their blog to yours or even mail their list. A good way to do this is to already have a link to one of their posts on your blog. This will make them want to return the favor and make them feel very appreciable.

The third and final step to getting major traffic to your blog is to take massive action. It is imperative that you are adding great content to your blog on a daily basis as well as attracting attention. After a while you will not have to focus too much on attracting attention because your great content will do that for you.

However, I can’t stress enough about how important this last step is. Real action will produce real results. Add great content every day and you will soon start to see your traffic stats go up and up. The more great content you add, the more visitors you will see. Traffic equals dollars. Major traffic equals major dollars. Now get to work!

Affiliate marketing

First step to affiliate marketing

Making money online on Internet is not a very tough way to go but sometimes it is. The best and short way is the one you choose. You can make money online in pennies or you can make money online in big units. For example for starters, making money with AdSense is always best. But problem with AdSense is that you need a lot of patience and time in order to get big amount of money.

On the other hand, you can try affiliate marketing which can bring you big units of money. Affiliate marketing can be done in many different ways. It can be a pay per action, a pay per lead, pay per sale or pay per click. Usually pay per lead affiliate programs and pay per sale, pays more than ppc.

For a quick step, if you want to make some in hurry you can try a combination of affiliate marketing and PPC bidding. You choose a product to promot then join adwords or yahoo PPC and bring traffic to your landing page and let people make the actions and revenue for you.
The other way is a little timy but long term way of making money. Build a website, populate it with content and promote it on search engine. Make it search engine friendly, build some links and start promoting products. As long as you are getting FREE search engine traffic, you are making money more than by using PPC way. Because in SEO way you don’t have to spent anything. All you have to do is a little bit effort and time.

You can try signing up with commission junction, neverblueads, amazon associates, clickbank and azoogle for trying your first step towards affiliate marketing.

PPC can be successful but SEO always does the job in cheap way. Just signup and pick a product and promote it as much as you can to get targeted traffic to your landing pages.

TwitMe For WordPress

TwitMe For WordPress

Holy-fagioli! Why did it take me so long to discover TwitMe? I’ve been blogging for years. I’ve been on Twitter for years too. So how did this cool little plugin escape my attention. No clue but I’m glad I’m finally with the program.

TwitMe is a handy little WordPress plugin that allows you to publish posts automatically on Twitter. I used to do that manually and it really doesn’t take long but I also plan a few days of posts in advance and always had to ping Twitter with those posts manually. Sometimes I would forget. With TwitMe, I won’t have to worry about it anymore.

The application took seconds to install and a minute or two to configure. My first posts worked like a charm. I had set up some posts to publish while I was away for New Year’s weekend and they pinged Twitter automatically within seconds of being published on my blogs. How cool is that?

I’ll be posting a video tutorial on how to install and configure TwitMe in a few days but couldn’t wait to share my excitement over this uber-cool plugin.

Media Marketing Tips

Social Media To Market Your Business

If you’ve been following me for a while, you’ve noticed that in the past year (particularly in the past six months) I’ve been talking about social media and social networking. Internet marketing, and marketing in general, is changing. It’s taking a page from the old days of network marketing and becoming more about the relationships you create with your followers and customers rather than what you can sell them. The following article offers tips on how to leverage the new social media tools to market your business and how to create a memorable online presence. Enjoy!

Social media and networking are all the craze in the marketing world today. Professionals and small business are moving over to social networking and online marketing in droves. However, many IT professionals today still do not understand the power of the Internet to market their business nor do they share this power with their client base so that they can become the expert in this field and help their clients. Not only do they not understand the power of the Internet and what it has to offer to their business they may also be afraid of letting their hair down on the Internet.

The online social networking world is all about building relationships. Exactly the same way you would create friendships at a kitchen party or at a social event. Online networking using social networking tools like Facebook, LinkedIn or Plaxo is exactly the same as going to your local Chamber of Commerce or networking club and meeting new people or reconnecting with those colleagues in your local community.

Online social networking and media follows the same set of guidelines as you would find in any face to face interaction. You need to be yourself; you need to add value and most importantly you must be authentic.

How do we take our business online and attract new business opportunities using social media services?

The first step is you need to be memorable; you must create that memorable experience so when you follow up with a new contact they instantly remember you. Just like in a face to face networking event, you have to create that memorable experience. How are people going to remember you? What memorable experience are you creating so that they recommend you to their friends and family when they have an opportunity for you? You must create that memorable experience, you need to be unique and you must try to help everyone in your circle of inspiration, never sell to them.

The next step is exactly that: Never sell your services and push your products using social networking tools. Again, just as in a real life face to face meeting, if you come across as an aggressive sales person, people will run away from you and you will find yourself being awfully lonely. The same thing happens online, if you post links to your products on Twitter or on your blog, you run the risk of pushing people away from you. We must educate and only focus on teaching or sharing our knowledge with others.

Talk about current events and the affect that is has in your world. It is also OK to be a little controversial, controversy will attract readers to your blog. Current events and the impact that it has on your clients and your industry are also great ways to attract new people to your blogs and Web sites. Engage yourself in conversations with others in your industry and offer your insight into their postings. By combining your own writing and participation in what others are talking about in your local community and industry will attract followers to your sites.

When leveraging social networking it is important to add value. You do not have to create content all the time on your own. Leverage existing content that is out there today that your clients, friends and contacts would find value with. You do not have to create the content yourself. This is the power of the Internet. There are many sources of content out there;you need to find what content your followers would find interesting.

Leveraging social media is exactly the same as networking face to face, you want to exhibit the same behaviours that you would at your local networking club or Chamber of Commerce. It is important that you approach the online world this way. Be helpful, offer assistance and whenever possible follow up. Follow up just like in a real life meeting is critically important, if you can meet face to face following an online meeting great, if not, leverage tools like instant messengers, e-mail and online communities to take your new relationship to a whole new level.
The number one sin in marketing is to be boring; the same rules apply when you are marketing online. You cannot afford to be boring; you need to be exciting; people are attracted to those that are offer fun and exciting things. If you are looking at attracting new business opportunities online, do things that are fun and will attract potential clients to visit your site, post fun contests on your social networking sites that drive traffic to your Web site. The number one rule is to be fun and exciting and make it your number one intention not to be boring.

Online and social media can bring a tremendous amount of value to your business if done correctly. Remember these basic tips and tricks to help you with your online experience. Leverage the tools available to you and your business today, create those memorable experiences and help out those that are hungry for the value that you can bring to the world.
