The Ultimate Money Making Tips – Chapter 4

"It’s all about the money..." Every time, when I’m listening to this song, it makes me feels that we all are short in money, especially in this economic downturn period.

As the internet largest search engine tycoon, Google had declared that those websites who selling text links without the nofollow tag would be penalized, including dropped out their Page Rank! Due to this reason, this monetization method became less popular.

However, many website owners are still using text links to monetize their sites. Some of the website/blog owners are using the nofollow tag and some not.

One of the advantages of this method is that it is not intrusive. Anyone can sell text links directly through his website or use specialized networks.

By the way, if you’re dare to challenge the Big G, then you might want to try out these text-link ads programs:

• Text-Link-Ads
• Text-Link-Brokers
• LinkWorth
• TNX

PS: If you insist to use the above programs, then use it on your own risk!

The Ultimate Money Making Tips – Chapter 3

Welcome back, guys! Have you tried out any PPC or CPM program that I recommended you in the last two blogposts? If you haven’t, then you should have a peek on it right now!

There are many ways to earn money online, and one of the effective methods is to sell your own advertising space. Believe it or not, most of the well-known bloggers earn their living, by selling their own website spaces to several advertisers! As a return, over hundred or even thousand of dollars are paying to them.

Why this method is so profitable for the bloggers? First of all, it allows you to cut out the middleman commissions and to determine your own rates. The most popular banner formats on the web are:

1. The 728×90 leaderboard,
2. The 120×600 skyscraper,
3. The 300×250 rectangle, and
4. The 125×125 button.

Every program has its advantages and disadvantages. The biggest downside of direct banner advertising is you need to have a huge traffic or readers to attract the big spender advertisers. In addition, you have to spend time managing the sales process, the banners and the payments.

No matter what, it’s still the best way to monetize your website/blog!

The Ultimate Money Making Tips – Chapter 2

A few days ago, we’ve been discussing about the PPC programs. Today, we’re switching our attention to the CPM advertising networks!

Technically, CPM advertising networks act like the PPC networks, except that you will get pay according to the number of impressions that the ads displayed on your site.

For your information, CPM is the short form of “Cost Per Mille”, and it refers to the cost for 1,000 impressions.

Let’s say, a blog that generates 100,000 page views monthly displaying an advertising banner with a $1 CPM, therefore, will earn $100 monthly automatically!
CPM rates vary with the network, the position of the ad and the format. The better the network, the higher the CPM rate (because they have access to more advertisers).
The closer you put the ad to the top of the page, the higher the CPM. Also, the bigger the format, then the higher the CPM.

You can get as low as $0,10 and as high as $10 per 1,000 impressions (more in some special cases). CPM advertising tends to work well on websites with a high page views per visitor ratio (e.g., online forums, magazines and so on).

Here is the list of some of the famous CPM advertising networks:

1. Right Media
2. Casale Media
3. Burst Media
4. Value Click
5. Tribal Fusion

Good luck for your online earning journey!

The Ultimate Money Making Tips –Chapter 1

Undoubtedly, Google is the leader in the internet industry. Google’s PPC program, Google AdSense is the most popular option under this category. Many people have been earning their living online, thanks to the Google Adsense!

Before you jump into the Google Adsense, you have to sign up with the network and paste some code snippets on your website. Then, the network will serve contextual ads (in text, images or video clip) relevant to your website, and you will earn a certain amount of money for every click that being generated.

Please keep in mind, the profitability of PPC advertising depends on the general traffic levels of the website, especially the click-through rate (CTR) and cost per click (CPC).

The CTR depends on the design of the website. Ads placed abode the fold or blended with content, for instance, tend to get higher CTRs. The CPC, on the other hand, depends on the nice of the website.

Based on the research, mortgages, financial and education are some of the examples of profitable niches, which the publisher able to earn over couple of dollars with only a single click, while tech-related topics tend to receive a smaller CPC.

The source of the traffic can also affect the overall CTR rate. Organic traffic (the one that comes from search engines) tends to perform well because these visitors were already looking for something, and they tend to click on ads more often. In the other hand, the traffic from Social media presents terribly low CTRs because these visitors are already familiar with the Google ads and tends to ignore the ads!

For those who didn’t want to use the Google Adsense, you might want to try out these following programs:

• Yahoo! Publisher Network (YPN)
• Chitika
• Clicksor
• BidVertiser

So, what are you waiting for? Let’s get jump on the bandwagon and begins your online earning journey immediately.
