How To Make $100 A Day With Your Blog

Many people online look for that one big opportunity that will make them millions of dollars. The truth of the matter is that there is not ONE big opportunity, but several good opportunities that will make you a lot of money. Keep finding opportunities and using them and you will start to see the money coming in. I'd like to teach you a very easy to use technique that you can use to create a $100 a day income in a very short period of time.

Your first step in this process is to find 10 different topics. You'll be able to find topics all around you. In the news, in forums, in the search engines, and thousands of other places. Once you decide on your topic, you are going to create an ebook 10-20 pages in length for each topic. Within each ebook, you will need to make sure you place affiliate links related to the ebook topic.

Once you have these ebooks created I suggest you also create some graphics for them. It just gives your ebook more appeal and shows people what they are getting. Since the Internet is a virtual store, you will need to give people images to relate to. I have seen my ebook download increase by over 200% by showing people a graphic of the ebook.

Now that you have your ebooks and graphics created, it's time to find as many ebook directories as you possibly can and submit your ebooks to these directories. You can find a list of ebook directories by going to http://www.marketingforrealpeople.com/ebook-directory-list.htm

As you submit your ebook to more and more directories, more and more people will begin downloading them and reading them. The more people read them, the more opportunity you will have of making money when they purchase a product or service through your affiliate links within your ebooks.

So why create 10 of these ebooks?

Because you should make an average of at least $10 a day from each ebook which would give you a $100 a day income. If you're not making this much, try putting different affiliate links in your ebooks. Test and track your affiliate links until you are satisfied with the income you are getting.

As you add more ebooks, your daily income will also go up.

You don't have to use this technique with affiliate links only. You could also use this technique to drive traffic to your Blogsite that you have placed Google Adsense ads on. Instead of mentioning a product or service that you could get affiliate commissions on, mention your Blogsite that you have Google Adsense ads on.

With a little time and effort, you could easily be making $100 a day with this easy and simple technique. If you put a little hard work up front, you will reap a lot of rewards in the end. More...

Five Tips to Managing Time with Your Blog

So you want to start a blog but you are afraid you do not have the time to devote to it? If
you want to have your own space on the internet and have the opportunity to show your
inner self to the world, blogging may be the answer. Consider these five tips to making
your blog as time efficient as it is exciting.

1. First of all, you may want to consider setting up a community blog. A community
blog is one that is run by many people who are like minded, instead of simply by one
individual. This helps to eliminate the needs for constant posting by one person. With
several people comprising a team of bloggers, each person can post a couple of times a
week and result in a blog that is relatively active.

2. If you do not want to create a blog with a community of bloggers working together,
you can also choose to hire a team of bloggers. This is similar to the way newspapers use
contributing authors for articles. In fact, many successful blogs are successful because
they do just that. This helps to insure active posting and timely posting, thus making
your blog more appealing to visitors. This also helps to increase your audience because
each blogger will bring with it his or her own group of influence. Like this idea but not
sure about the expense? You can offset the cost by allowing the display of Adsense
advertisements. This can, in fact, even turn out to be a profit making venture as well.

3. Next, you can recycle content to save time. Search for relevant articles on your
topic(s) and break them down into segments appropriate for a blog. You can also use
partial interviews and other things. Consider selecting a longer piece and breaking it
down into smaller blogs that could last a week. You can set this up and post parts daily
as a series.

4. Another way to save time is to use audio in your blog. Some people simply find it
easier to speak into a microphone than to write something. It is perfectly acceptable to
mix things up and use a variety of both in your blog. Use an MP3 recorder or phone to
record your blogs. This is convenient for those who stay on the go or those who are held
up in traffic or an unexpected meeting. You can record thoughts as soon as they come to
you instead of having to wait and try to remember it all later.

5. Finally, you can automate your blog. Many blog programs allow you to create blogs
ahead of time to be published at a future date and time. So, if you have some free time,
you can create blogs for the rest of your week. Automate them to post each day, and your
blog remains updated with no extra work on your part. This can be a huge timesaver if
you do not have to sit at the computer to type every single day. There are days when we
do not have enough time or space to say everything we want to say. There are other days
when we would prefer not to talk at all. Instead of having several entries on one day and
then nothing for the next two or three days, you can write it all at once and have it post
each day.

Blogging: Networking With Blogs

Dear friend,

Happy Presidential inauguration. That is talking of the inauguration of the 44th President of the
United State Of America, Barrack Obama, the first black president in the history of the country.

In the past, people relied on websites for networking. Today, however, the newest thing
to hit the internet craze is the blog, or web log. It is fairly easy to create a blog to journal,
talk about events, express your thoughts and ideas, or do just about anything you want.
Without having to have a website yourself, you can create a blog that is hosted by a mass
blog website.

Blogs really hit the public scene during the 2004 presidential election. The reason is that
it gave many people a place to be heard both as a journalist and political commentator.
However, that type of blog is not always right for everyone. If you consider using a blog
for your own networking purposes, you can use it as a sort of diary or a place to share
your expertise on a particular topic.

Blogs can be updated quite easily and are hosted on a website, so you do not have to
worry about any lack of knowledge in the area of sites themselves. You may find that
you can use a blog instead of a newsletter and it would actually reach more people
because it could be viewed by anyone searching for keywords contained in your blog.
This means more profit, if you are using your blog as a money making device, because
you make more money when you reach more people.

But what are the benefits of your own blog? First of all, you are giving people a chance
to know you and learn from you. In a sense, you are generating a clientele or following.
Secondly, you give others an easy way to recommend you. They only have to provide a
link to others to tell them what is great about you! Finally, it helps you to stay on top of
things and become a cutting edge expert. You will have to do some research to make
sure your topics are fresh and interesting, and this will help you to know what is going on
in your area.

Once you decide that networking with blogs might be right for you, how do you get
started? There are three things that are most highly recommended for beginners to do
before jumping in headfirst. Consider the following tips.

First of all, take the time to read other blogs. Do a search on your favorite search engine
for blogs related to your potential topic. See what else is out there. This will help you to
see what types of things are being done in blogs that are successful and what things are
being done in blogs that are not doing as well. Consider emailing blog owners and
asking for guidance and assistance. In many cases, blog owners are more than happy to
help and are not as competitive as one might assume.

Secondly, research and read up on RSS. RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. It is
one of several ways to publish your blog online. You can search for a free RSS reader in
your favorite search engine and use it to kelp keep track of the blogs you are reading.

Finally, start a blogging! Some prefer to create their plan ahead of time while others want to
start it up and go with the flow. If you are prepared to take some time up front to get set
up, you'll be ready to roll in no time! Just go to www.blogger.com and create your blog in just 3 steps

How To Maximize Your Earnings With Google Adsense

After earning tens of thousands of dollars from Google Adsense I am going to go over the tactics that have worked for me in maximizing my Google Adsense income.

Where you place your Adsense adverts is one of the most significant factors that you need to consider when designing your web page. Adverts placed above the fold will receive more attention and consequently will generate more clicks.

You also need to look at the best performing ad formats to use. Historically the 336x280, then the 300x250 have worked very well for me. After these two formats I would rate the 160x600 wide skyscraper as the next best format. The reason these ad formats work so well is that they look similar to content.

After the placement and ad format the color of the ads are the next most significant in increasing your Google Adsense earnings. You need to avoid colors that make the adverts contrast too much or induce blindness. Use a white background and make the color of the advert the same as the text color of your web page. This is to make the advert look like content. It is preferable to have blue as the color of text as a blue text link is more likely to be clicked as people are conditioned to blue hyperlinks.

You also need to experiment with the adverts on your web site. No two web sites are alike and what may work on one may not work on another. This largely depends on the type of audience and their web behaviour patterns.

Links represent an additional way of earning money from Google Adsense. If the adverts are not directly related to the content you can earn money money from the link units which represent different categories that are similar to the content. I have found the best results to be when you include the link units in your navigation scheme so that they look part of the menu.

As soon as you start applying these Google Adsense tips your revenue will increase.

Creating a Successful Blog

Welcome friends,

It is almost a necessity for an online business owner to have a blog these days. There are
all types of blogs out there: informative blogs, personal blogs, and marketing jobs, to
name a few. Now businesses have to compete using these blogs to receive a higher
ranking in the search engines.

In order to have a successful blog, you will need to insure that it is well-written. You will
also have to check to make sure it is designed well and that you can update it frequently
and regularly. You need to take the time to research and know your audience before you
start so you can be sure to target them appropriately.

But what if you are not trying to start a blog for business purposes? How can you create
a blog that is successful if you just want to have a blog? There are some tips you can
apply to help insure that your blog will do well.

First of all, select your topic. Since you aren't using your blog for marketing your
product, you can write about anything that appeals to you. You can use a blog as your
own personal online journal or you can use it as your forum to comment on the news.
Just be sure to choose something you are passionate about, something that you know
well, and something that will allow you a chance to show the world the real you with all
your talents, knowledge, and ideas.

Secondly, write your blog as if you were conversing with a friend. Make your writing
conversational and free from a lot of technical jargon, unless you are directing it only
towards a very specific readership. Post frequently because having more content on your
blog will help more people to find it through search engines.

Use your blog to get your opinions out to the world. You are not moderated and you are
free to express yourself in whatever way you choose. However, do not use your blog to
insult people or try to damage businesses or organizations. Be wise in the decisions you
make regarding your blog usage. Remember that you are influencing people's views and
they will be evaluating your credibility. If you are offensive, you may lose readership.

Finally, take time to promote your blog. Don't be afraid to keep the URL for your blog
in the signature line of your emails. Your URL is your Blog address, i.e http://easycash-online.blogspot.com .You never know when an email might cross the path of someone who might be interested in what you have to say. If you publish a newsletter,
be sure to promote it there as well. Finally, you can join blog directories and post the link
there or join forums related to your topic and share your link with others.

If you do consider using a blog for business purposes, realize that it needs frequent
updating and good, solid content. Some people consider paying someone to maintain the
content aspect of the blog once it has been created. Many people make extra money
serving as content writers and prove to be beneficial to blog owners.

Blogging: Good Content for your Blog

Many online retailers today have begun to use blogs to increase traffic to their websites.
These retailers attract potential customers by offering articles and website content that is
relevant to the interests of site visitors. This can prove to be a very profitable addition to
your site if you know how to create good content for your blog.

First of all, you have to be able to maintain interest in the topic yourself. If you spend
time writing articles or content on a subject that is of little or no interest to you, your
boredom will surely come across in your articles. However, if you choose to write about
something you are passionate about, then readers will see how devoted you are to the
subject yourself and they will also pick up some of that passion themselves.

It is also important to write about something you care about because you will have to
spend a little time keeping your blog updated. New information and content should be
added regularly to keep your readers coming back for more. You will also have to spend
some time doing research on your topic to make sure your ideas stay current!

After you have decided on the theme of your blog, start posting and work out a schedule
as to how often and when you will post. It is a good idea to try and post something at
least once a day. It may not always be a full length article, but even a comment on
another article, which you can give a link to, will help to keep you current. It will take
some effort to get your blog going, but once you are on the right track, it will become
easier and easier to maintain.

Eventually, no matter how into your topic you are, there will come a day when you just
are not feeling the passion. There are some ways you can cope with that. There are
methods you can use to help create new content for your blog without feeling like you are
doing the same thing day in and day out.

First of all, check out what other bloggers are doing with blogs on your topic. Many
times you can post a blog that is actually in response to something another person wrote
on their site. You can do this as long as you post a link back to the other person's blog.
This can actually draw new readers as you "network" with others.

Also take the time to look at forums related to your topic. These forums can give you
ideas for questions and answers to those questions, as well as possible article topics as
you talk with others. This helps you gain knowledge of your field and gain new contacts
who can become potential readers and then potential customers.

If you still need something to blog about, search for your topic in a search engine such as
Yahoo or Google. You can search for news articles related to your field. These articles
can serve as a springboard to help you find something to talk about.

Remember the importance of consistency in posting. You want major search engines to
find your site, and this is done through optimization of your blog articles. If you have a
higher ranking with a search engine, you will in turn attract more potential customers and
generate more profit!

Increasing Website Traffic Through Blogs

Dear Friends,

It is no secret that blogs can do amazing things for a business. Now we are beginning to
realize just how powerful they are and how they can work to increase traffic to your
website in no time. By implementing some of the strategies below, you can do this
quickly and easily.

What is a blog? It is a place for you to share your thoughts, ideas, and vision to the
world. Reading blogs has become a hobby for many, and they use it to glean information
on various topics. If you can hook in these readers, you could potentially have up to one
million website visitors a day!

First of all, you need to be aware of the template used to create the look of your blog.
Create a large banner to be placed in the center of the top of the page. This shows people
quickly what the blog is about and who is running it. This can be a great hook to catch
people from the first time they view your site.

Choose carefully the look of your site because a person's initial impression will come
solely from how aesthetically pleasing your blog is. If you do not want to take the time
to create your own template, you can find many templates available online that are free or
cost a very small amount. Use your favorite search engine to find these templates and
look around until you find the one that is perfect for you.

Next, you need to work on content for your site. What is content? Content refers to the
articles or postings that you write and publish on your blog. You can use some sort of
blogging software that will help you in easily creating content and publishing it. You can
also scour the internet for article sites that will provide content at little or no cost and will
allow you to post these on your site. Having relevant content will help your site maintain
a strong readership by always offering them something new and interesting.

Finally, you can use pinging services to help draw people to your website. Pinging
notifies the most popular search engines each time you make a change to your blog. This
helps to move your blog up in the ranks of popular websites, making it higher on the list
of ones which viewers find first. You can find a number of websites that offer pinging
services for free, so look around before selecting one.

There is no way to create a successful blog overnight. It is a combination of hard work
and interesting content. If you will take the time to create a unique template, write strong
content, and use available pinging services, you will have no trouble increasing website
traffic over time. It is important to stay focused and not allow yourself to get discouraged
too quickly. Once you build a readership, you will be able to keep them as long as you
are regular with postings and make sure that the information you provide is relevant.
