Tips To Generate Web Site Traffic

To generate web site traffic you need to follow the basic rules of SEO (search engine optimization). But be patient, free traffic methods is a slow way of generating traffic. Expect to wait months before seeing any significant traffic to your site.

First, make sure your website is packed full of interesting content that visitors will value. Without a doubt the best way to generate web site traffic is by providing quality informative content. Also, include a Google sitemap on your site.

Traffic from the natural search engines such as Google is free and for some online businesses, this accounts for at least 60% of traffic.

Let's look at how you can boost web site traffic.

Everyone sends and receives email, and one of the best ways to go about generating traffic to your web site is by putting the URL of your web site in your email signature.

Registering your web site with search engines is one of the smartest things you can do to generate web site traffic.

Submit your site to online directories.

Not only getting the traffic is important but it also needs to be quality traffic. Remember, web site traffic generation is the foundation step to your system by focusing on activities that will get you back links to your site.

Blogs can really drive traffic but always short lived. You need to do post replies on blogs many times a week. Make sure you develop quality inbound links, as the amount and relevancy is very important.

Writing articles that provide that are informative to other people will provide traffic also. Write on each day and submit to different article directories.

Take advantage of online forums and online communities to boost web site traffic. Use signature files in online articles.

If your article is published online, you'll receive a hot link directly back to your site, not only increasing your traffic, but also improving your search engine rankings. The information web surfers are looking for is usually available on hundreds if not thousands of websites, so you have to make sure you are extremely diligent about keeping your website high in the search engine rankings.

But for getting fast traffic, nothing beats pay-per-click advertising. You need to be careful though. You can really spend a lot of money. So you really need to keep track of your ads.

To generate web site traffic really means to stick to a few methods and keep at it until you see your site rank for your keywords.

You Have Some Traffic? Earn More Money with Auction Ads.

One of the most popular newly emerging advertising networks is AuctionAds: a specific ad network that deals with displaying advertisements of live eBay auctions. For those who are not familiar with eBay, it is an online auction marketplace that features a large variety of items.

AuctionAds works quite easily. The publisher enters their advertisement keywords to suit the topic of the page on which the advertisements will be displayed. When this is done, the advertisements can be edited to suit the layout and design of the page with a feature that adjusts size and colour.

Both images of the items as well as the current bid on the items are shown and the advertisements displayed by AuctionAds generally perform well due to their attractive layouts. Despite their advertisements being similar to those of a PPC network, AuctionAds pays publishers only when a user clicks the link and performs an action on eBay - such as bidding on the item advertised. When this happens, you receive a decent commission which varies by the cost of the item.

Currently AuctionAds has 20,000 unique publishers with a reported 200 more joining each day, making them one of the largest auction affiliate programs available.

Features
AuctionAds works by providing the advertisements based on the keywords the publisher has entered. The advertisement is generated instantly and the code is provided for the publisher to place on their webpage.

The advertisements AuctionAds serves are image and text-based advertisements with a border surrounding the advertisement. The size of the advertisement you would like to display is chosen by you. The colours of the fonts and backgrounds are also chosen by you to suit your site's layout.

Publishers receive a decent commission for each auction bid they refer through a user clicking on the advertisement. This commission percentage varies by the bid amount. This method of advertising can be much better for specific publishers than CPC or CPM advertisements.

Controls
AuctionAds has extremely easy controls to navigate. Users log-in by entering their email address and the password with which they signed up. Upon logging-in, a user is automatically taken to the Campaign Manager part of the control panel. Here, users can add or delete campaigns they want to create.

Next to the Campaign Manager function of the menu, you will find the Get Code button. This enables publishers to retrieve the ad code of the advertisements they wish to display. In this menu users can choose a campaign they have created, the ad color and the color settings of the text. There is a special module which enables you to select one of your campaigns and enter a desired eBay live auction URL which you can promote as an advertisement. There are also typical functions such as View Detailed Reports and Change Profile settings.

Available Types and Formats
AuctionAds supports most common banner sizes, and their banners are displayed with a small image and text listing the auction details. The available ad sizes are:

Recently AuctionAds has improved their Ad Code Wizard, allowing for more ad creative options and color blending.

Reporting
One of the main features provided in the AuctionAds Menu is the Reporting feature. Currently, the reporting system AuctionAds uses details the impressions and clicks attracted by a chosen campaign for the date selected. Also featured in the reporting is the Click-through Rate with the Revenue. The revenue is the commissions you have received for referred bids on the auction's advertisement displayed during the selected period. The Click-through rate is the percentage ratio of clicks to ad impressions, while the reporting lists the date chosen with the name of the campaign.

A neat feature in the reporting is the graph with impressions and revenue graphed on it. It allows publishers to analyze trends in their earnings to see when they were earning most and which campaigns are performing the best.

How to Get Started
Getting started with AuctionAds is extremely easy. Just visit the link to their website at the top or bottom of this review and then click the Sign Up link at the top of their website. There you will have to provide some basic information (payment and contact information) and your account will be activated immediately after clicking the link you receive in your email.

Once registered and your account is confirmed, you simply log-in and press the campaigns link and create a campaign to display advertisements. After you have created the campaign, visit the Get Code link. Then select the campaign you have just created and generate an Ad Code changing the settings to suit your website layout.

Once everything is done, click Create. Then copy the generated code and place it in your website. Wait and start earning!

AuctionAds is also giving $25 free to new publishers who sign up through us.

Payment
Currently, AuctionAds is still a fairly new ad network and are giving publishers 100% of their revenues to encourage publishers to use their network. Payments are currently done via Paypal and are issued at the beginning of each month for the previous month's earnings. The minimum payment for withdrawal is $50.

Referral System
AuctionAds has a decent referral program with good earning potential. They offer publishers 5% of all revenue generated by a referred user for six months after that user signs up. This is very useful since they have publishers’ referral codes included in the "Ads by AuctionAds" part of the advertisement that shows up on publishers’ pages.

However, most ad network referral programs pay out 5% for an entire year, so AuctionAds could still improve on this. In addition, there is currently no separate reporting for referrals available, leaving publishers completely in the dark as to how much their referrals are earning for them.

More Information and Support
AuctionAds’ client support is responsive and efficient. They have a link to a contact form which publishers can use for help. AuctionAds usually replies to inquiries within 1-2 business days with a helpful support team.

Their website features pretty much all the information that could be desirable for a publisher while the contact form is always available for other questions.

Summary
AuctionAds is a CPA or cost-per-action Ad Network that pays its publishers when a user clicks an Advertisement and bids on the Auction to which the advertisement is linked.

Since AuctionAds is a CPA ad network, it is not suitable for all web publishers.

Unfortunately, most publishers have reported very low earnings and poor results from AuctionAds, with referrals bringing in even less.

However, AuctionAds is still new and working on hard on their network, and thus is still an ad network worth looking into.

Make Money Online with Affiliate Programs Part 2 (Getting Started Guide)

Affiliates make money by referring customers to their merchants. There are many companies and webmasters offer affiliate programs to promote their online sales. When you sign up for an affiliate program, you will be given an affiliate link with an unique affiliate ID which will be used to market the product. When someone makes a purchase through your affiliate link, you make money (earn affiliate commission). Below are the steps to starting an affiliate marketing business:

Step 1 - Join an Affiliate Program
Clickbank.com is one of the best places to find an affiliate program that interests you as there are a ton of sellers looking for people to promote their e-books and info products. Before you join any affiliate programs, do a little research. Find out which products are most popular, the conversion rate of the products and visit the sellers’ websites to see whether their sales letters are convinced enough to generate sales. A conversion rate of 5% is reasonably good. This means that for every 100 visitors to the website, 5 visitors will buy.

Step 2 – Promote an affiliate program through a website
You need to have a website to promote your affiliate programs. Creating a website isn’t difficult nowadays. You can use an easy website builder to create a website with little or no technical knowledge. To learn more about how to set up a site with website builder, you can go to Google and enter the search term 'website builder' to find a site builder that is right for you.

Step 3 – Decide the Content on Your Website
As you are promoting e-books, you can write a review on each e-book with an affiliate link to the sales website of each e-book. If you do not wish to write reviews, you can create a product recommendation list on your website (e.g., ‘Top 5 SEO e-books,’ ‘Top 3 MP3 music download,’ etc.).

Step 4 – Drive Targeted traffic/visitors to Your Website
To earn affiliate commission you need to drive targeted traffic to your website. The more traffic your website gets, the more likely you’ll generate more sales. There are several ways to drive targeted traffic to your site in short period of time (2 to 5 days). Here’s how……

Pay-per-click (PPC) Advertising
You can get a lot of targeted traffic using PPC advertising. The two most popular and effective PPC advertising programs are Google Adwords and Yahoo Search Marketing. So how PPC advertising program works? PPC advertising programs allow you to bid for top rankings on the keywords of your choice. When someone enters a search term matches your keyword in the PPC search engine and press the search button, your contextual ad will appear on the sidebar of the search result page. If the visitor clicks through your ad to your website, you’ll be charged base on your bid amount. To learn more about PPC advertising, please click here.

Article Marketing
Writing an article related to your affiliate products with a link to your website in the article’s resource box and submitting it to many article directories can bring some free targeted traffic to your site. To get more and continuous targeted traffic, you need to write more articles. Try to publish a new article every week. Doing this for a year can drive truckload of free traffic to your website.

Post Messages on Forums
Another way to get free traffic is by posting messages on community forums with a link to your site on the signature of each message posted by you. Here’s a technique I learned from an affiliate marketer.

1) Run a search on Google to find out forums and message boards that are related to your affiliate products and try to join as many forums as you can.

2) Make sure that each one of your forums profile is edited to include your website link within the signature option.

3) Spend a few hours navigating the pages of the forums. You can ask questions and post informative and helpful replies to other peoples’ questions or messages to build your status. The more people trust you, the more likely they will click your link.

Make Money Online with Affiliate Programs Part 1 (Introduction to the Different Types of Affiliate Programs)

Today, affiliate marketing programs is seen as one of the most important methods by online companies and merchants to market their products and services because implementing an affiliate program doesn't cost much money and it helps generate a consistent stream of online profit.

On the other hand, the affiliates see affiliate marketing as a feasible and low cost method to make online online by promoting other people products using a website or without a website (using Google AdWords PPC advertising program).

There are many affiliate programs on the Internet and not all of them are similar. The most basic affiliate programs fall into 3 categories:
  • Pay Per Performance
  • Pay Per click
  • Residual Income Affiliate Marketing Programs

Pay Per Performance
Pay per performance (PPP) affiliate programs are what most companies and online merchants likes to use. The companies only need to pay when an affiliate referral translates into an action. The action can be a purchase or a lead. The affiliates will spend their own money to promote the affiliated company's products, This save a lot of money for the company. PPP affiliate programs can be futher classified into 2 sub-categories:

  • Pay Per Sale (PPS) The title says it all. The company only pays the affiliate when a visitor referred by the affiliate make a purchase.
  • Pay Per Lead (PPL) PPL is a little different to PPS. PPL affiliate programs usually used by finance and insurance companies. In this type of affiliate marketing, the affiliate will be paid a fixed commission whenever a visitor referred by him/her to the merchant's website requested a quote or filled up an online application form.


Pay Per Click (PPC)
Affiliate ProgramsPPC affiliate programs are most popular. You should have heard them a lot. PPC programs are probably the easiest way for web publishers to make money from their websites and blogs. The affiliate gets paid a certain amount ($0.05 to $0.50 usually) whenever a visitor click a banner or text ad displaying on the affiliate's website. PPC typically used by contextual advertising companies like Google AdSense, Yahoo Publisher Networks and much more.

Residual Income Affiliate Marketing Programs
In this type of programs, the affiliate not only compensated for every customer referred to the merchant's website, the affiliate is also paid whenever the referred customer returns to the site and buy another product.

The different types of affiliate marketing programs would deffinitely work differently for merchants and affiliates, and each would have their own advantages and drawbacks. To find out which types of programs work best for you, you'll have to know which one of them suit your need and characteristic most. And then start testing them.

Make Money with Text Link Ads

Text Link Ads is a growing company that currently sells the text link and RSS feed ad space of over 10,000 publishers. These small ads can be customized to make them very unobtrusive, and are a great way to simultaneously monetize a blog or forum and increase its search engine links without drastically altering the site’s appearance. The owners of Text Link Ads recently started a new site, ReviewMe.com, which pays bloggers to review advertisers’ products and services. Simultaneously, however, they have continued to improve Text Link Ads and to add more features, making their network very successful in selling advertisements and monetizing sites.

Features
Text Link Ads offers three ways for publishers to make money from their sites: by posting text link advertisements on the site itself, by inserting these ads into the site’s RSS feeds, or by becoming an affiliate.

Text link ads on a website can be used in conjunction with the ads of other networks and are sold at a flat rate per ad for a 30 day run on the site. The price asked for an ad space is determined by Text Link Ads based on a pricing algorithm that factors in the site’s traffic, theme, and link popularity. Publishers cannot set their own prices at this time. This can prove to be a problem, as prices set too high may discourage advertisers from buying the ad space. A similar problem was encountered at ReviewMe.com, but the companies’ owners have since allowed publishers to choose to set their own prices on that site. So far, this improvement has not found its way to Text Link Ads, which continues to require that the network set the prices.

Text Link Ads newest innovation on this ad network is the addition of post level text link ads that allow publishers to put ads at the ends of individual entries. Pricing for these ads is automatically set lower than regular homepage ads.

The second form of advertising handled by Text Link Ads is what they call “feedvertising,” or putting text link ads at the bottom of a blog’s RSS feeds. Currently this feature only works for WordPress blogs, but the network says that it will soon expand its compatibility to include other blog types. Publishers have the option of choosing not to opt in to this feature; they can also put this software to personal use and choose not to sell their ad space through Text Link Ads.

In addition to these features, Text Link Ads also has some neat tools for publishers on its site. The Text Link Ads Calculator figures out the amount that the network would charge for a link on a site given its address, number of link spots, website category, whether it will be a site wide or single page ad, and the position of the ad. No signup is required, so this is a good way to get a feel for the network’s pricing before joining. Another tool offered by Text Link Ads is the Blog Juice Calculator, which shows the rating of a blog among others in its general category when the site’s address is input. Again, no signup is required to use this tool.

Controls
Accounts at Text Link Ads are run using a simple control panel that is accessed by logging in at textlinkads.com. Through this panel, multiple sites can be managed as a single account, as can both text link and RSS feed ads.

To market their ad space, publishers must create a description of each website that Text Link Ads represents that includes the site’s name, description, category, Alexa rating, number of pages the ad will appear on, link popularity, and the number of filled and available ad spots. This is made easy, however, by the simplicity of the control panel, which walks users through these steps. Feedvertising can also be set up as an extension of this process, with publishers simply selecting that they would like to participate in this campaign and choosing how many of the ads they would like Text Link Ads to sell for them and how many they would like to keep for personal use. This information is added to the site description for prospective advertisers to view.

Also via the control panel, publishers can pick the approval system they would like to employ to manage their advertisements. With option A, Text Link Ads will autonomously approve ad campaigns for the site when they are offered by advertisers, although these can be cancelled by the publisher if they choose. Ads never contain adult, illegal, or gambling content, so this method is generally sufficient for most publishers. With option B, the site’s publisher is emailed each time they receive a new campaign offer. This offer is automatically approved within 24 hours by the ad network so the publisher will not miss out on campaigns if they miss the email, but it does offer some advance notice of ad sales. Codes for campaigns are generated through the control panel.

The control panel also offers publishers a way to edit the appearance of their text link ads. They can choose the color of the ads’ border, background, and link. They can also specify the number of ads in a row and the language in which these ads will appear. Previews of any changes made are displayed in the control panel, which makes it much easier to get an ad to look just right. The advertisements’ formatting can also be different on each of a publisher’s sites.

Available Types and Formats
Publishers can control the format of their text link ads, specifying their size, color, quantity, and number of columns. RSS feed text link ads can also be customized; publishers may change what heading they appear under, as well as the way they look.

Reporting
Revenue reports are available through the control panel. They are updated daily and prorated to take into account the earnings of campaigns that are still running. Earnings can be viewed by month or by site, as well as totals, and are separated into the various campaigns. A publisher may also view their payment history here.

How to Get Started
In order to join the Text Link Ads network, publishers must complete an online application, which should take the network approximately 24 hours to review. If the site is approved, they can then create descriptions of their sites, which will begin being screened by potential advertisers 1-3 days after their completion. When a site is chosen to run an ad campaign, the code for that campaign is generated through the control panel according to the publisher’s specifications and can then be placed on the site.

Payment
Text Link Ads has a reliable and convenient payment system. Unlike many ad networks, this company does not have a minimum monthly payment amount if publishers choose to be paid via PayPal. Payments are made on the first of the month for all revenue generated the previous month, including partially completed campaigns. For publishers who choose to receive their payments by check, however, there is a $25 minimum. If the publisher’s sites have not generated that much revenue in a month, their earnings are rolled over into the next month until they have reached $25.

Text Link Ads gives its publishers 50% of the sale price for each ad they sell. This includes homepage ad links, post level ad links, and RSS feed ad links.

Referral Program
Text Link Ads has a simple referral program where publishers receive a one-time $25 reward for any referred advertiser that results in a sale, or for any referred publisher who applies to be represented by the network and is approved. These referrals are made through links that publishers may place on their sites and are processed automatically.

While shared revenue would be preferable to $25 CPA, Text Link Ads does have nice referral report features. Each referral is displayed by date, customer name, and even the exact URL where the conversion took place to help publishers find what links or pages are converting best.

More Information and Support
Support at Text Link Ads is polite and responsive. They are reachable by either phone or email. New developments are announced in the site’s blog, which is accessible from its main page.

Summary
Text Link Ads is a good alternative to blend in with other ad networks in order to fully monetize a site. It pays good rates for the relatively small amount of ad space, and its customization options make its ads unobtrusive. The biggest problem with this network is that it bans publishers from adjusting their prices when the network sets them too high. In spite of this, many sites could possibly benefit from the services it offers.

Site Monetizing Depending on Traffic

Let’s talk about how you can make income from your site or blog. Today, there are hundreds of ways of site monetizing, but the problem is in it’s profit. I want to disassemble all monetizations by the site’s traffic volume criteria. Let’s begin.

1-100 visitors. If you have a good site with a great contents or blog with interesting articles, but it’s too young and Page Rank is zero, the best ways of earn money from it are so.
1. Google Adsense. Adsense was made as universal advertising which is approaches for all traffic volumes. For example, the site about finance areas, like insurance or mortgage, which is has about 100 visitors per day, could bring you about $15 dollars everyday. The reason is in expensive clicks.
2. Bidvertiser. It is the advertising network that competes with Adsense. But the main advantage of it is low payout of $10. Big sites has no problem with it, but for small, which are still waiting for its magic $100 Adsense hit, it is very attractive.
3. Affiliate advertising. Another simplest and profitable way of site money making. You could register in one of the affiliate programs, such as Copeac, and find there a relevant product with banner according to your site’s subject. My advice to you: find some of free of charge advertising, for example free insurance quotes. You will receive income for every registered user.

100-1000 visitors. When you have a site with traffic volume of about thousand visitors, it is more simply to make money from it. Certainly, add Adsense, and here are some additional ways of its monetizing:
1. Text Link Ads. There are many people who want to promote their sites. Text Link Ads will help you and them to make money from it. It pays you $25 for every registered user.
2. ReviewMe. If your blog’s popularity increases and has necessary volume in it’s area, you can do small reviews of others blogs in your niche for money. ReviewMe is the intermediary in this area.
3. Advertising. At attendance more than 100 person per day, always will be the one who is ready to pay for advertising. For example, if you have a profitable niche, you could earn $100 for a small advertising banner on it.
4. Donations. It’s quite normal. Many blogs and websites earn a big income with donations. For example Steve Pavlina’s Personal Development blog make a big money with donations. If you help people in their problems, some of them want to thank you for this. Donations is a good deal for this purpose.

More than 1000 visitors per day. If you have more than thousand visitors, you could leave your offline work :). With clever monetization, you can earn about $3 thousands a month and even more. Lets look what ways of income could help you in this.
1. AuctionAds. It allows you to monetize your website by displaying live eBay auctions next to your related copy. The goal is that you will make more with AuctionAds than with directly with eBay affiliate program.
2. eChitica MiniMalls. You should have 50′000 visitors to your site or blog per month. It provides visitors with relevant content and comparative shopping information without even leaving your site. The revenue is quite good.
3. Kontera ContentLink. Their technology reads your post and turns certain words into an ad. It requires 500′000 views per month for being accepted to their program. But there is also partnership which is allow smaller blogs to use their ContentLink service.

There are much more ways to monetize your site or blog. Choice is for you. Look at this program, it will help you to manage, evaluate, and control your various ad networks.

Copeac is Most Popular Affiliate Networks

Amongst the most popular affiliate networks with performance marketers is Copeac. Short for "Communicate. Perform. Achieve", Copeac is a straight-shooter in that it is not known for any specific bells and whistles, but instead opts to focus on being a basic yet solid affiliate network.

Features
Copeac offers CPA (Cost-Per-Acquisition), CPS (Cost-Per-Sale), and CPC (Cost-Per-Click) and has a large and growing advertiser base which covers a wide spectrum of markets for publishers to choose from. However, they do lack offers in a few particular categories, as most affiliate networks do, and therefore it would be advised, as always, to use other networks in conjunction to Copeac.

Copeac is well known and regarded for their high payouts to publishers. In an industry as competitive as performance marketing, it is important for affiliate marketers to get as much as an edge as possible, and having access to high payouts is one of the biggest edges out there.

One basic yet satisfying feature Copeac possesses is keeping publishers logged-in indefinitely. The majority of affiliate marketers check their stats on a regular basis, yet most affiliate networks have a rather short session expiry time, forcing publishers to keep logging in. With Copeac, publishers remain logged-in and a browser refresh will instantly yield a quick update of the stats.

Another feature Copeac offers is a banner rotation tool. With this tool, publishers can choose to rotate a variety of different banners and offers within one snippet of code. This eliminates the need of installing a 3rd-party banner rotation system.

Control Panel
Like many affiliate networks, Copeac uses the DirectTrack software for their control panel, so new publishers to Copeac may already be familiar with the software.

They also offer an optional feature for bid management which tracks the actual keywords from the PPC search engine and the resulting conversions through Copeac. However, this feature isn't free at $79 a month for 50,000 actions and $0.002 per overage.

Rewards
Copeac offers its publishers Gift Cards as incentives. Currently they reward $50 once $25K is generated, $100 for $50K, $200 for $75, and $500 for $100K.
They also offer extra bonuses for super-affiliates who generate a lot of volume.

Signing Up
Registering with Copeac is fast and easy. One major perk when signing up with Copeac is that the mandatory W8/W9 tax forms that all affiliate networks require publishers to sign, are done electronically.

This means that all the publisher needs to do is type their name and agree to the legal tax form, and they’re done. There is no requirement to fax or snail mail the forms in, allowing publishers to start generating revenue right away. Other affiliate networks would greatly benefit if they adapted this method.

Referral Program
Copeac has a referral program and offers publishers 2% on every approved affiliate referred, for life.

This can be tracked via the control panel, which states how much is earned from referrals, how many referrals signed up, and the amount that each referral earns.

Payment
Currently, Copeac pays via Check or Wire and is scheduled to payout monthly. However, publishers that produce decent volume to Copeac can ask to be paid weekly.

The minimum payout threshold is set at $100.

Customer Support
Copeac’s customer support is superb, and ranks among the upper echelon of affiliate networks.
Each publisher is assigned their own private affiliate manager which is available Monday through Friday, and can be reached via E-mail, toll-free phone, and even instant messenger. Copeac understands the value of providing great customer support to its publishers, and is willing to help publishers in any way possible.

Publishers can even ask their affiliate managers for payout increases on offers if they are putting in a good effort on them, and Copeac is happy to oblige!

Summary
In conclusion, Copeac is definitely one of the best affiliate networks out there, and affiliate marketers are encouraged to sign up if they haven’t already done so.

Copeac's high-payouts, large selection of offers, and great customer support will keep them among the frontrunners for a long time to come.

How do I Make Money Online.

A lot of people are thinking about an opportunity of doing online business. If somebody 5 months ago told me, that internet could bring a good income, I laught about it. Today I can tell with the 100 percentage confidence, that earn money in internet is really true. There are tens or even hundreds ways of internet income. I want to give you some advices how not be scamed in your way of online money making.
Don’t belive in such slogans like “make money working 1 hour a day”. I don’t want to tell that internet business is hard work, it’s not. But before you will know all about internet money making, you will have to read a lot, about blogging, affiliate programs, search engine optimisation, traffic getting and many other things. Exept this, you will need to do your regular internet work, which could continue for a ten hours a day, until you stand up your business.
Now I want to write about some major channels of internet income on my own example.

Blogging. Don’t be afraid to create blogs. Several days ago I found out that one of my blogs, that I created about 4 months ago, is bringing me money from adsense. Do you know how it was? I did blog, posted 4 articles there and forgot about it for 4 months. Now it has about 20-25 unique visitors a day, I don’t know from where are they. I didn’t do any backlinks, just create it on Blogger. And know why it happens so? Early or later search engine robots will index your blog and in your posting text it could be such keyword that is very seldom. For example: one of my blogs bringing traffic thanks to this keyword - “Honda Civic interior design tips”.
My advice: create as many blogs as you can, post an unique content there and if you don’t have time for it just forget it for several months.

Affiliate Programs. Success in affiliate programs depends on time factor. 2 months ago I did about $2,000 a month from Copeac, June give me only $520. I don’t know what is hepenning, but instead of Copeac MaxBounty’s offers begin to work very well, and I finished month with $1,230 earning. It’s seasonable, I think.
Last time I trying to work only with long tail keywords. Know why? Because of it’s price. The keyword like “avoid bunkruptcy - eliminate debt today” costs much more cheaper than “debt elimination”. Yes, it will be less traffic, but it will be more targeted and much more cheaper. And as I wrote before, I’m using only exact phrases to avoid click fraud.
By the way, Text Link Ads makes me glad. They are paying $25 only for new user registering. I did 125$ from TLA last month.Well, don’t work with only one affiliate partner, be active in this sphere.

Shopping sites. My trading through my websites don’t have success until this moment. I don’t know why, may be because of all sites is still in Google’s sandbox, may be because of I’m doing something wrong… This channel brings me only $32. I’ll work on it, and will report in what is the reason.
Work, work and work one more time… These words I’m telling myself everyday. But time is catastrofically not enough. In future it would be actual to think about creating own small company :).

This guide will help you out with varios needs and basic rules of being a member of a "Pay To..." site.

The Guide is a work in progress, and if you would like to make any suggestions on entries, please contact us.


What you need

  • A valid email address - You will always want to have a valid email address to use when you sign up to a "Pay To..." site. This is so that the website can contact you with inquiries about your account if needed. Also, some "Pay To..." sites require a valid email in order for your payments to be accepted. Another thing you will need your email address for is your payment processing site. For example, on PayPal you will need a valid email address in order to sign up for an account.
  • A Paypal account (recomend) - Most "Pay To..." sites use PayPal as their preferred payment method. This is because it is the easiest of the payment processors to use in many peoples' opinion.
  • Knowledge of Terms of Service - You will need to know at least a little bit about the Terms of Service each site provides for their members. Always skim over this and check for irregularities and rules that you might not know about so that you dont accidentally break them without knowing.
