New Authority Site Membership!

Jan30
2011 Leave a Comment Written by admin

Well, as I’ve been saying, build large sites and Google will come. Now I bet that most of you don’t have the time or the inclination to build these sites. I totally understand that. To help you guys out, I created a new membership and I’m really excited about it. Here are the details:

———————————————-

I’ve had a bunch of inquiries regarding a membership that builds Authority (Supersite) websites. I’ve thought long and hard about this idea and how to make it doable and affordable. I came up with a really good solution. The result is the SuperSite Builder Membership! Here’s how it works. On month one, we propose a niche. Let’s say it’s weight loss (yes, I know, that’s a hard one, but it’s just an example). On month one we research the niche, come up with keywords, write the content, setup the site. Month 2, you have the option of A) adding another month’s worth of content OR B) creating a new site. That way, YOU control the flow of the membership based on your preferences. To illustrate, let’s say you stayed with the membership for a year. You could have either 12 smaller sites OR 1 big site, OR anything in-between! It’s all up to you how big we grow the site. When you think a site is big enough, we start another one. You can stay as long as you want. OK, that’s the overview. Here’s the particulars:

1) Full keyword research for each proposed niche.
2) Professionally built WordPress blog with all the SEO plugins properly configured.
3) Free setup and hosting on our servers – you don’t need a hosting account!
4) 20 400 word articles written by our writers here in the US.
5) Article submission to EzineArticles.com.
6) Promotion/backlinking of the site via Web 2.0 properties (hubpages, squidoo, etc.). We create accounts on these services and get you backlinks.
7) Integration of your choice of monetization options.
8 ) Profile links from one of our partner’s distribution networks.

So, each month, you get 20 fresh articles with tons of backlinks to each article. This will result in a flood of traffic to your site by months 3-4 and beyond. We’ll be working hard to build and promote these sites. YOU decide how big they get. When a site is big enough, you tell us and we’ll start a new one.

I hope you see the tremendous benefits here. We find profitable niches and keywords and build you a blog empire. You are in control of how large each site becomes. For now, I think we can take on 10 members. I look forward to helping you build a successful blog empire.

To Your Success!

Why Is It So Hard To Make Money Online With Adsense?

Feb01
2010 Leave a Comment Written by admin

I get asked this question so many times that I thought I would write yet another post about it. Why aren’t your sites making money with adsense? Why can’t you make a full time living online with Adsense? Well, those are two different questions. I will answer a lot of your questions, so sit down and grab a cup of coffee or tea or soda or something more stiff and I’ll delve right in.

First off, what are your expectations for making money online? Are you expecting to make $1000 per month with no website and no experience? If so, please drop me an email and let me know how you expect to do that. If you are still with me, then a good hard look at your expectations is in order.

If you are looking to build a solid income online, please set aside at least a year to see some results. Yes, a year is the very minimum you need to see income and get encouraged by the results. If you see nothing after a solid year’s worth of effort, then you did something really, really wrong. This is not the business for you. OK, now that the get rich quick online people are gone, let’s get down to business. Am I saying that it takes a year for you to see any income online? No, I am saying that it takes a year’s worth of effort to see any significant earnings. There are exceptions, of course, but let me define my parameters.

First off, I am talking about making money online with websites and free search engine traffic. I am not talking about using paid traffic. For paid traffic techniques, you must look for another website because I really suck at PPC (pay per click) advertising. Alright, let’s get back to our parameters. I would like to say that at a minimum, you should shoot for $1000/month online in a year. That is a reasonable goal. Let’s see what it will take to get there.

I should pause and mention here that you really must have some idea of how to write keyword based articles. Keyword based articles are articles that are written specifically around a keyword that you have researched and believe will make you some money. Generally, you should strive for articles with a length of at least 500 words or more. Your articles should have your keyword phrase in the first and last paragraphs at a minimum and you should have a keyword phrase density of around 1%. For a 500 word article, that is 5 times in the article. There are lots of tricks and methods to writing these articles, but I won’t get into them here as I would like to remain on topic, that is making at least $1000/month in a year’s time.

How many websites does it take to make $1000/month with adsense? That is not an easy question to answer. I will attempt to estimate the number for you. If you are looking at a website with fewer than 20 articles on it, I would say that you should be able to make around $40/month with adsense provided you did some keyword research. So, assuming you can fairly easily make $40/month with a website given a year’s time, how many websites is that? 1000/40 = 25 websites. Each website should have at least 5 articles on it, preferably 10 articles.

How long will it take to write the content for 25 websites? Well, I would take a shotgun approach. I would write 25 articles and register 25 domain names right at the beginning and see which sites take off. If spending around $250 for domains scares you, then test the waters with free websites like blogger.com or hubpages.com. You can write articles and post them on those free sites to see how they fare. If they work, you can then go and register the domain name and create a link from them to your new site. If you write one article per day, you can get all the content written for your first 25 sites in under a month. If you keep writing one article/day for the rest of the first year, your websites will have at least a dozen articles each. That wasn’t so hard, was it?

Wait a minute! What am I supposed to write about? What’s a keyword? To answer some of those basic questions, go signup for my free adsense eCourse -> Click Here To Get The Free Adsense eCourse! OK but to summarize, use Google’s free keyword tool to get an idea of traffic volume, cost per click, competition, etc. Once you find a keyword phrase with weak competition that can generate at least $100/month income if you are at the top spot, you’re ready to go.

Once you have decided on the keyword phrase, see if the domain is available. For example, if your keyword phrase is “big ugly gold watches”, then go see if biguglygoldwatches.com is available. If you are using free networks, then see if biguglygoldwatches.blogger.com is available. If not, add some filler to get there. Put the filler at the end. Examples of filler are “411″, “abc”, “online”, etc., like this: biguglygoldwatchesonline.com. Register the domain name and/or put up the free blog and post your article.

Nothing is going to happen without links! Nobody will find your article or website. Since we are depending on free traffic, we need to tell the world about our site. I find the easiest way to get a link to our site is by submitting an article to article directories. One of the top directories is ezinearticles.com. There are lots of others, but I would start from there because Google likes EZA a LOT! Submit an article written around your keyword phrase and make sure you have proper anchor text. Make sure that your links are varied. You don’t want 10,000 links to your website with ” big ugly gold watches” as your anchor text. You want “gold and ugly watches”, “find big ugly gold watches online”, etc.

Once you submit to EZA, wait a couple of weeks, rewrite the article and submit to 10 other directories. Examples include buzzle.com, goarticles.com, articledashboard.com, ideamarketers.com, articlecity.com, iSnare.com, etc.

If you follow this plan, you’ll have one EZA link and at least 10 other links to each page of your site. That’s over 120 links to your 12 article site. If you choose a very low competition phrase, that’s all it will take to get your website to the $40/month level. What else can you do?

Social bookmarking is another favorite of Internet Marketers looking to make money online. You can quickly build links to your sites this way. Currently, digg.com and propeller.com and stumbleupon.com and some others are good for this. Register an account at these sites and bookmark all your articles. Also bookmark your author’s page. If it has an RSS feed, submit it to RSS feed directories. Now, don’t forget to bookmark other sites and stories so that your account does not get closed for spamming.

Blog posting is good for links too. Go to your favorite search engine and find other blogs that are similar in topic. Post comments there and try to get some links back. This will help in your rankings. You can offer to write an article for the blog owner if the blog is popular in return for an in article link. These links are gold!

So, let me summarize. If you want to make $1,000/month online with Google adsense in about a year, find 25 low competition phrases to target that are worth at least $100/month for the top spot. Register or use free properties which share revenue and create your sites. Get links from EZA and other top directories. Use social bookmarking to strengthen your article links. Add more links through blog posting and/or guest authoring. Repeat each month until you have 25 sites with 12 articles each.

I hope this helps you to get motivated and start earning money online. If you need some free help, please feel free to Click Here! Do it today, the clock is ticking.

I Need Money Now – A Common Request

I need money NOW – A guest post by my friend Ashley

Do you find yourself thinking “HELP, I need money now”? If you are like most people these days, you probably are. More people than ever are in debt, it almost seems like there is no end in sight. While there is no such thing as free money, there is a such thing as being able to manage your money more properly in order to make the bills each month. After all, isn’t having a way to pay the bills priority number one?

Sitting there and thinking “I need money now” is not quite going to get you what you need. It’s be nice to sit there and think about it, but in all actuality need to take some action. While you can try to find loans, even car title loans or paycheck advances, you will eventually have to pay those back. While these are possible solutions to a very short-term problem, they are only going to make your problems more difficult later on. Learning to manage your finances better to cut down on some unnecessary ones is going to get you a lot further than a loan will.

A quick fix when thinking that I need money now is a sell some of the things you own. You can do this through eBay or craigslist. EBay is a more secure way to go about this, but it can take some time to get somebody to win auction. Sellers on craigslist at barter, but you can get whatever you are trying to sell out of the door within a day or two. It is really a trade-off either way, so be sure to weigh the pros and cons before jumping in either one.

If you live in a house or apartment, and you have a spare room. You could rent it out to somebody. This can be a great way to make your monthly rent or mortgage bills a little easier, especially if they pay half of the monthly bills. The downside to this is that you will be inviting somebody you do not know at first to stay in your home. This can be a slightly paranoia inducing experience if you have never done this before. It can get past this fact, this is a great way for you to make your monthly expenses little easier on you.

And of course, the most plainly obvious to cut down your expenses. This could be on junk food, then I of electricity you use, the amount of cigarettes you buy, or just any spare money that you happen end up spending. If you can cut down your expenses then you are doing yourself a world of good. While this is not may I need money now solution, it is a fantastic long-term solution.

Thanks for the post Ashley!

Make Money Online Selling eBooks

Jun21
2009 1 Comment Written by admin

In this short post, I’ll try to tackle how to make money online selling ebooks. Most of you should know about ClickBank.com, the premier ebook marketplace. There are so many guides out there on how to select a product, gravity, percent commission, etc., etc. Here’s my take on this process. Look for something you might be interested in buying for yourself. I am sure that you will find something because the marketplace section has so many products to choose from. There are tons of categories so don’t head straight over to the very saturated IM section. Try something easy like baking recipes or look for a hobby book like stamp collecting or gardening. You are sure to find something that is not in the extreme competition category.

Once you find a product you might like, go to their sales page. If you want to make money online selling ebooks, you need to select a quality vendor. Does their sales page look professional? Is the ad copy compelling? Would you buy the ebook? How about pricing? Will you make at least $15 to $20 from the sale? If not, I would suggest finding a different product. Also look for leakage. Leakage means ways for the customer to leave the page without buying anything. Do they have adsense on their page? That is not a good sign. Do they have a very obvious affiliate program link? That is not always a bad thing, but being too obvious is not a good sign. Check the niche traffic statistics to see if there is any traffic for this niche. If you see that the top keyword gets 10 searches per month, chances are you need to move on.

Once you find the ideal product, you are on the road to making money online selling this product. If you want to test the market, I would suggest building a free blog like a Squidoo lens or Blogger blog first. Write a few articles that pre-sell your prospect without seeming too obvious about it. You should be honest and post the weaknesses in a product as well as things you think could make the product better. It would also help if you reference some of the competing products and review them also.

Well, that’s all we have time for today. I will elaborate more on ebook selling in future posts. Hope you enjoyed this one.

Free Make Money Online With Adsense eCourse!

Make Money Online With Adsense

Many people ask me how I make money online with adsense. I have posted hundreds of posts answering this very question.

There are many ways to make money with adsense. Most people I know make about $1 per month or less. No, that isn’t a typo, it is the truth. Do you know why this is? Well, most people have no idea how Google’s Adsense program works, none at all.

I know how to make money with Adsense. My sites make money month after month without new content and without promotion. You need to promote your site initially and if you are in very competitive niches, you’ll need to add content and build links to keep your rankings. I have many sites in low competition niches that have not been touched in several years, so it is entirely dependent on the niches you target.

Anyway, all the wisdom I’ve amassed is finally in one place. I have a new eCourse that details how to get up and running making Adsense cash. The really good news is that it’s free! Yes, FREE! OK, enough suspense, here’s the link: Make Money Online With Adsense. Go there now before I launch the ebook version and charge you $97 instead of $0 :D Please feel free to let me know if you like it. Post your comments here.

Now, all you have to do is select import from your WP blog, all the posts will appear (dated to publish in the future) and all you have to do is edit the date so that the posts appear naturally when YOU want them to.

Make Money Online With Adsense – Improving Your Adsense Income

Feb27
2009 Leave a Comment Written by admin

Hello Readers!

I get asked this question so much, I decided to post about it. I have around 200 niche sites with adsense on them. This should make me rich, right? Wrong! I made some mistakes and I would like to share some very hard-won information with you so that you don’t fall into the same traps that I did. Here’s what I found:

1) Niche choice is important. Here’s why: I have several websites that target small niches which Google pays me $0.04/click. These websites only make a few dollars/month. Generally, I view a site as a success if it makes over $10/day. I think that is reasonable. Let’s take our real world $0.04/click for a “poor” niche and see what it would take to get $10/day. I go to my adsense account and see that on average, 4.49% of my visitors click the ads. Let’s crunch some numbers: to get $10/day, at $0.04/click, we need 250 clicks/day. OK, sounds great. Now how many people need to see that with a CTR of 4.49%. That number is 5568 visitors per day! Ouch! OK, how many visitors is that per month? Well, just a shade over 167 THOUSAND visitors/month. OK, let’s say for illustration, we assume that each keyword here (I actually looked at on of my sites for this number) has around 2,000 searches/month. Let’s be kind and say that we capture every visitor. That would mean we need around 167/2 or around 84 articles to get there.

2) Optimizing and testing is soooooo important. Here’s why: Let’s say that we optimized our website for clicks and got a 10% CTR. That would mean we could get away with writing 38 articles instead of 84! Hey, big incentive there! People, that means you should be doing everything you can to get that click! OK, let’s say we got that 10% CTR, moving on, what else can we do? Here’s what: target keywords that get $0.20/click instead of $0.04/click. Really, it is not hard at all. Google’s external keyword tool now has CPC (cost per click) data. Fixing our website to target these clicks means we need 1/5 the traffic. Well, how much is that? 5568/5 is a much more reasonable 1114 visitors/day. With all our previous numbers being equal, that would mean we target 38/5 keywords, or 8 keyword phrases. Isn’t that MUCH better? Doing some research definitely means all the difference between success and failure.

Well, as you see in my example, choosing the right niche and testing and optimizing your CTR makes the difference between writing and promoting and dominating 84 niche phrases or just 8 phrases. Which would you rather do? Now go out there and make some cash.
