Case Study: How To Get More Traffic To Your Blog

December 8th, 2007

graph2.jpgTraffic.

It’s what every web site, and especially every blog needs. But how do you get more traffic?

There are many different ways including leveraging content, using comments, focusing on keywords, tagging, rss feeds, niche blogging, email list and more, and I suggest working on a few at a time to build up a steady stream of traffic and then move on to other strategies. By working on a few at a time you can measure their effectiveness, make changes if necessary and then continue to build.

And traffic is only one factor to a successful blog. Monetization, pillar articles, design, marketing, branding, sourcing content, publicity, newsletters, rss feeds all play a part in a blog that’s successful, both your visitors and you will enjoy and only takes you a few hours a day to maintain.

Well known blogger Yaro Starak has a mentoring program where he teaches how to work part-time to make a full-time living from your blog. He’s been blogging successfully for years and shares his strategies on every aspect of blogging and regularly does case studies with his members. He’s put together a BluePrint for Bloggers that goes over his strategy for profitable blogging and is available for download at no cost.

Check out his case study on getting more traffic to a blog as well as a complete lesson from his blog mentoring program, Marketing with Conversations where you’ll learn the important aspects of communicating effectively with your visitors to keep them coming back. Grab the audio MP3 of the entire lesson as well to listen while you workout or drive. These are full case studies and lessons straight from his mentoring program.

Update: Yaro is closing BlogMastermind on Monday Dec 10th for some time to make upgrades to the membership. He’s indicated that when the membership reopens next year, pricing will increase to reflect the additional content. This won’t affect current members, new members won’t be able to join until upgrades are completed.

To your profitable blogging!

Why BOA Will Help If You’re Frustrated Trying To Make Money Online

December 4th, 2007

Have you heard about the fellow from Florida that was living with his mom in a tiny bedroom, sleeping all day and staying up to all hours of the night searching for a way to make a living on the internet? (this may sound familiar to some of you)

The weird part is that in his search, he even tried to raise dairy goats and ended up losing it all, watching g-men come to repossess the goats and still get stuck with the bills.

Now, just a little over a year later, he’s doing 7 figures online, without spending a dime on advertising.

Is it hype?

The reason why I’m writing about this is because what Mike is doing here is different and can help you, especially if you’ve been struggling to get going online. His goal is to get anyone that is interested to replace their full time income in as little as 12 weeks by going through his program.

I receive dozens and dozens of emails every month and the theme is the same. ‘I’m struggling to make some money online and confused with all the email offers I get every day!’

And you’re right, it can be confusing.

You see, there are a lot of programs in the internet marketing field that focus on specific income generating techniques or strategies, which are great if you’re already up and running online and know your way around. And they can be great addition to your online marketing arsenal.

But the BOA Method is different. Mike’s put together a complete strategy and tools to get you going, especially if you’ve been frustrated and spinning your wheels online.

Did you know just 4% of online marketers make more than $500 a month? And 44% have never earned more than $100, even in their best month? Those numbers surprised me.

Grab Mike’s now infamous PETE report to learn more and find out how you can finally get over the hump and get rolling.

And here’s what I really like about what Mike’s doing. He offers not only the tools, a complete 10 step blueprint as well as one of the most important aspects to any business (or anything in life for that matter) … your mindset. Mike teamed up with Lisa Diane, a leader in personal development and brings what no other program can offer you, all the components necessary to succeed online.

One of the other reasons that some get stuck is the technology. Let’s face it, not all of us are technically inclined to figure out how to setup up autoresponders, blogs, themes, plugins… all the details that are essential in running a business online. Again, here is where what Mike’s doing is different. He has what he calls ‘the magic button’. It basically gets your blog setup automatically, with everything you need to get started up and running, literally with a touch of a button. Now there are automatic blog installers out there, but this one is different. It not only sets up the blog, but also the theme and everything you’ll need as well. Not something I’ve found online before and a huge benefit to you.

Mike also concentrates on an essential key, getting traffic. He includes a three part strategy of tools and a special community that help each other get more traffic to their sites. All with little of no work on your part.

Take a minute to check it out and grab Mike’s free report, it could make the difference you’ve been looking for.

It’s also a great example of how to launch a product. Read it over and see how it was done…it’s a lesson in itself.

To Your Best Success!

An Effective Way To Monetize Your Blog

November 16th, 2007

When considering how to monetize your blog, one of the more effective (although sometimes controversial) ways is to get paid to blog. You get to write about things you enjoy and are topical to your audience… and get paid for it.

When researching the market, I found several web sites that have come out over the past few years that help match advertisers with bloggers. I chose to try PayPerPost.com. They have an efficient system that helps you chose the blogging opportunities that make sense for you and makes the process easy. After you find a suitable opportunity, you write the post, add the links to your entry as requested and submit it. It’s all on one page and easy to follow. You’ll notice the image below this post as disclosure that you’re writing a sponsored post, but not all advertisers require it.

Of course, to use the system, you’ll need to have (or start) a blog that has some content (preferably original content) and is getting some traffic. The opportunities available to you will be based on the number of posts you’ve made, your ‘score’ at PayPerPost (called a tack rating) your Google PR and Alexa ranking. If you’re just starting out, no worries, there are some opportunities that have minimum requirements.

Many of the blogging courses I’ve reviewed on the market recommend this method. To me it’s seems natural, you write on topics that are of interest to you, let others know about it and get paid to blog!

I’ve also used the advertiser side of the PayPerPost.com system to test getting the buzz out on a blog. It was straightforward and I received exactly what I was looking for, some good posts about the blog using the keyword links I requested. The bloggers that posted were honest, fast and wrote well.

This will be an interesting test. I’ll write more on my experiences and report my results.

How is your experience? Let me know!

Are You Using These Profitable Niche Blogs?

October 17th, 2007

If you’ve experienced the power of niche blogging with WordPress like I have, you’ve found that most free WordPress themes aren’t optimized out of the box. You often need to spend hours tweaking and updating to monetize them for Adsense and Clickbank.

So when I found a WordPress theme set that had professional layout, headers with source files, optimized for Clickbank and Adsense, ready to go out of the box I was thrilled. Just update the template with your Adsense and Clickbank id’s and you’re ready to add content.

And it’s not just a few templates. You can now grab this set of 30 WordPress Themes, in hot niche topics, along with master resell rights for less than the cost of a pizza. But only until midnight this Saturday.

You can also promote this to your lists and keep 100% of the sales price.

BlogRush, What’s All The Fuss?

September 30th, 2007

You’ve undoubtedly heard about the new blog traffic tool BlogRush over the past few weeks.

Basically it’s a network intended to help promote your blog by posting a widget on your blog with other member’s related posts. Your blog posts show up on other blogs in the network every time you display the widget. So basically, it’s how much traffic you get that will determine how often your blog posts are shown through the network.

It’s too early to tell how effective it will be, but from checking with other members the feedback has been mostly positive with a ‘wait and see’ attitude. My guess is that blogs that get decent traffic will benefit most from this network, although it looks like just about any blog with traffic will benefit. I can’t see many high traffic blogs using BlogRush, although many well known internet marketers are using it, or at least trying it out.

The jury is still out and we’ll see some tangible results soon. I’ve added it to our blog here and will report on any results as they become available.

If you’re using BlogRush, let me what you think.

To your best success,

Can You Make 83 Cents a Day Online?

September 28th, 2007

83 cents a day?

You must think I’m crazy to ask that question. Of course you’re also probably thinking, if I can’t make 83 cents a day I might consider another line of work!

Well, that’s exactly how much it will cost you to pickup all the articles and content you need to build at least 12 adsense sites and 12 blogs a month.

How much can 12 blogs and adsense sites bring you? Say each site only brings in on average $1 a day after a month in total revenue. That would be $360 a month for the sites and $360 a month for the blogs, with a total of $720 a month. To be even more conservative, let’s cut it in half, $360 a month in total revenue. Add 12 more sites every month and you’re adding at least another $360 a month to your total revenue – every month. This is an estimate of course, your mileage may vary.

Now, that alone would cover your cost for content, sites and blog themes at 83 cents, but how about if you added 3 PLR products that you could sell right away on topics related to the sites and blogs. And another 3 resell rights products that you can put online, send out to a list and sell right away too. Could these generate more than 83 cents a day as well?

How about adding 300 articles of content on 12 niche topics. What could you do with that? Create 12 autoresponder series on the niche topics and sprinkle your affiliate or product links throughout? Create a quick report or ebook and sell it? Create a viral report with links back to your site? Modify the articles and submit them to directories with links back to your sites? Could you generate 83 cents a day with these?

I’d conservatively say yes, you can easily earn 83 cents a day with just one component of the content. And quickly too. Add in the resell rights and PLR products and you can grow a strong revenue stream that can bring you passive income each and every month.

You can get all this content at RevenueArticles.com right now for 83 cents a day (or less). And if you’re reading this before October 15th, you can grab an additional 4 sites, blogs, graphics and extra bonuses… kind of a grand opening celebration bonus.

And all you need to get started is the content and a web host service that offers unlimited domain hosting for a flat monthly fee with easy wordpress installation from the control panel.

To be fair to members, we cap the membership and also provide tools to help make each article unique with no duplicate content worries.

If you’re looking to grow your online business by at least 83 cents a day, check it out.

To your best success!

How To Use PLR Content, Software To Jumpstart Your Profits

August 24th, 2007

What is the one common thread among all online marketing?

Content.

Whether it’s content you sell, post, write, use, compile… every project you put online has content.

Are you in the blogging niche? Good content to post is paramount. And niche products to offer to your blog readers are one way to monetize your blogs.

Are you creating Adsense sites? Another application for content. Again, here content is king.

Have a list of subscribers? Ready to sell PLR content and products are a great fit.

Have an army of affiliates? Here’s a great way to help build their commissions (and your profits) by splitting up the content and applications and promoting them individually, or keep them bundled.

Now you can either create content yourself, or pickup quality PLR content to modify or use as is (I recommend modification of content for best results).

I’ve just stumbled across some brand new PLR content that is fresh and full of popular niche topics, software applications and more. Just one of the 12 modules can bring you a stream of quick income on it’s own. Market them to a niche or market it as an opportunity with resell rights. For example, one of the software applications, Shareware Creator, could be marketed to anyone interested in making their applications ‘trialware’, software authors, information product marketers… thousands of prospects… or can be offered with rights to other marketers that are interested in new product. It includes the complete source code so you can modify it anyway you wish.

And of course, you can just take advantage of this sale to use all the products yourself even if you didn’t want to offer it to anyone. At this price it makes sense for any situation.

To get you started quickly, I’ve made this pack available to you for 2 days, through midnight this Saturday August 25th starting at a ridiculously low price. And don’t wait, the price goes up six times between now and midnight Saturday.

What can you do with this PLR (private label rights) pak?

You can use Willie Crawford’s strategy in his new report where he outlines how to quickly generate a few thousand dollars with existing PLR content or applications in just a few days. He used this same strategy himself to show you how.

You can also use the strategy in On Demand Profits that gives you a marketing method to promote your products or affiliate programs and get really fast results, sometimes in minutes. I personally used this strategy and took 6 orders in less than a day.

If you have a list of subscribers, you can make a special offer or bundle it with other content to make a new package. You can create new products by combining content, by re-packaging products… really, the opportunities to market PLR content and build your businesses are unlimited.

Whether you are a seasoned marketer or just getting started, PLR content is valuable and an important aspect of any online business. Checkout the Power Pack PLR 12 now and grab it for peanuts before the price goes up. And don’t wait, this special pricing is only available through midnight Saturday, August 25th.

For your best success!

Blogging To The Bank: Final Chance

July 11th, 2007

Just received an email from Rob Benwell, creator of Blogging to The Bank 2.0 (and wrote about last week) saying that he’s reached his anticipated sales and will now be raising the price tomorrow to slow down sales and not saturate the market.

Smart move on Rob’s part.

As I wrote about last week, my review of Blogging to The Bank 2.0 is… well, if you’re interested in one of the better strategies of making a living online, I highly recommend you grab a copy.

Not only is this updated guide excellent (even for someone that has been blogging for years like myself) but the bonuses are worth more than the course itself, in my opinion. For example, his powerpoint slide bonus is information that gurus share only after attending their high end coaching programs for $1000′s.

If you’re involved in online marketing in any way, you know how valuable blogging has become to any online business. It’s a great way to build a high search engine presence and build a residual, growing and valuable online business, one that you can even sell or pass on to your children. That’s how valuable a successful blog network can be. Rob has done this already (and proves it) and shows what it takes step-by-step.

Blogging is not a passing fad, it’s here to stay and a valuable asset. But only if you do it right. Most folks are doing it all wrong (if you want to monetize it that is)!

Rob says the price will increase tomorrow, so grab a copy of Blogging To The Bank 2.0 today.

All the best for your success!
