Use The Best Spinner for Article Marketing

2010-10-01T10:03:00.000-07:00

Article spinning is an important part of article marketing. It allows you to create multiple articles (sometimes up to 250) out of just one piece of content.

This means, you can simple create one article, spin it, and submit all the spun articles to various article directory sites without having to worry about duplicate content.

You can spin articles by hand, but this is very time consuming. Instead use an automated tool like The Best Spinner

Write 20 Aritcles A Day

2010-03-02T12:30:00.001-08:00

Unlike the title suggests, I don't think you should post 20 articles a day. Rather I want people to understand just how much work it takes to make money online or through blogging.

If you aren't seeing any affiliate sales and Adsense revenue, its probably not because you don't know how. I'm guessing you've read enough blogs to know exactly how. Its becuase you aren't putting in the effort.

It takes the equivilant of writing 20 500 word articles a day to earn an income online. If you're not putting in that much work you won't succeed.

So Start Working!

Should You Submit Your Blog to Directories

2009-11-30T05:27:00.000-08:00

Here's a common question: "should I submit my blog to directories".

Directories are remnants of yesterdays internet. They used to be widely used before search engines. But these days, why browse through a directory when you can just skip straight to a search engine and find exactly what you need.

But directories provide another valuable commodity - backlinks. However, even these backlinks a questionable and the SEO experts are still unsure as to whether these actually help your Pagerank or not.

So will submitting your blog to a directory build PR or traffic - the answer is probably not. You may gain some link love (pr) and you may see the odd visitor or two. But don;t rely on directories as a source of traffic or marketing.

CyberWyre has a neat tool that will tell you how much your site is worth.

2009-11-01T04:26:00.000-08:00

Wouldn't it be cool to see exactly how many visitors are currently viewing your blog, what they're reading and where they came from - all live and in realtime.

Thanks to the wonderful stats application Clicky, its now easier that ever to track your blog visitors in realtime.

Unlike Google Analytics, which is updated daily, Clicky provides a liver overview of your website. If you're interested in marketing and seeing how visitors come to your site - this is essential.

Price wise the news is also good as Clicky is free although I di recommend trying the pro versions as they unlock so pretty incredible features like Goals and Campaigns which are really useful for affiliate marketing.

Tip - Post Regularly

2009-09-28T18:37:00.001-07:00

I know - im guilty of not following my own advice on this blog. However, I did notice on another blog that posting 3 times a week at regular intervals has increased subscriptions.

Posting Frequency

It doesn't really matter how many times you post per week. Some blogs do extremely well posting only weekly. However, leaving long irregular gaps inbetween posts will cause traffic to drastically drop.

Setup a Posting Calendar

I like to create a weekly calendar. For example - Monday = Review. Tuesday = Video. etc. This will help keep you on track.

5 Reasons To Choose Blogger over Wordpress

2009-03-30T06:09:00.000-07:00

I write for a number of blogs - most of them are self hosted and use the Wordpress platform. I also generally recommend using Wordpress to others, but today I wanted to write this post to explain a bit about why I chose blogger for this blog.

Here are 5 reasons to choose Blogger over a self hosted Wordpress

No Distractions - Wordpress has thousnads of plugins which turn it from a mere blogging platform into a full blown CMS. Sure this is great for a vareity of blogs, but if all you want to do is churn out content, blogger eliminates these "distractions" by offering no plugins.
Reliability - I host my Wordpress blogs on whats meant to be a fail-sage grid system. But even this expensive hosting goes down for matience. Blogger on the other hand rarely goes down (can you remember when you couldn't access your Blogger blog)
Zero Learning Curve - Sure Wordpress is super simple, but its still got a lot of options. The more options a product has, the more there is to find out about - ie learn!
Easy to Monetize - The newish Google Adsense integration is easy and built in. You can quickly switch on ads that match your blogs design.
Security - This ones a biggy. See Wordpress can at times contain security flaws. Sure Wordpress puts out regular security fixes for these issues, but if you're lazy like me, you can end up getting burned.

So there you have it - 5 reasons why you might choose Blogger over Wordpress. I have found many people start with a Blogger blog and then move to a self-hosted Wordpress one, simply because they want more control and features. I on the other hand, for this blog, wanted to simply put out regular content free from disctractions about a topic I love. I didn't want the commitment of having my own domain, hosting etc.

I still love Wordpress (its rated as my number 1 online app) - and I still use it everyday for idezy and Tweetgain but its always a good idea to look at all the options available. Remember choose the right software not just based on the type of blogger you are - but the type of content you are creating.

Working with Squidoo

2009-01-31T16:33:00.000-08:00

I am new to Squidoo - and I seemed to miss the boat.

But better late than never. So I decided to create a lens or two and see how things go. Being new to Squidoo I don't really know all the tips and tricks. What I do know is that if you create a lens on something you are passionate about, it makes the entire process all the more easier.

Here are some of my lenses. Take a look and tell me what you think of them.

As you can see, the topics I covered are all related and based on things I work on everyday. Over the coming weeks I will be working on creating a few more lenses and working on interlinking and promoting them.

Do you have lens?

Earnings Update

2009-01-30T17:51:00.000-08:00

Here is an update of my earnings so far across my blogs and other sites. To be honest I havent concentrated too heavily on monetization so far but will look to do so in the coming months.

Text Link Sales - $30.00
Ad Sales - $8.00
Helium - $0.60
MyLot - $2.61
Directory Link Sales - $6.00

Total: $47.21

This past month I have put a lot of work into Helium - a site which pays you to write articles. Hopefully this work will start to pay off over the coming months.

I have pretty much given up on MyLot. Although it used to do alright, I can no longer justify the time it takes to earn what I want from that site. I think I will just leave it and see how my referral earnings go.

The bulk of the earnings came from link and ad sales - something which I hop to continue.

How to Make Money Blogging

2009-01-02T02:31:00.000-08:00

There are many ways to make money blogging. Some are easier than others but one thing is certain - making money blogging isn't instant and it can be hard work. The good news is that plenty of people are making good cash with blogs.

Adsense

Adding adsense to your blog is very easy. If you use blogger, than its simply a matter of linking your adsense account. If you use Wordpress than there are plenty of plugins available to automatically insert ads into your blog.

Paid Posts

Paid posting has died off a bit recently but opportunities are still available. Try using PayPerPost or SocialSpark. Its simply a matter of having a blog with a 20+ posts and some traffic. You don't need a huge amount of visitors coming to your blog, but the more you have the more you earn per post.

Text Links

You can sell text links on your blog if you have a Pagerank greater than 0 or a decent amount of traffic. You could go with a company like TextLinkAds although they will take a cut of your profits. Instead try selling links directly on your blog or through a forum such as The Digital Point

Blogging Graveyard

2008-10-30T02:56:00.000-07:00

Wow!

I was checking back through a few blogs I used to read or write for and found most of them had simply been left to age. No new posts - how sad!

Many of the blogs I used to read were about blogging and online marketing. About a year ago there was a huge surge of blogs related to these topics - mainly because there was a couple of high profile blogs that made a lot of money, very publicly.

And it seems clear that these blogs, which were essentially clones of the more successful and profitable ventures failed after there owners realised it takes a little hard work to make any real money from blogs.

So with all these blogs dead, does it mean there are more readers to go around?

Choosing The Right Blogging Platform

2008-10-30T02:45:00.000-07:00

Probably the most common question asked by new bloggers is what software should I use. Wordpress, Blogger, Typepad?

There are many different options available and each has its own benefits. Here is my guide to what platform is suited to each user.

For The Busy Blogger

Don't have time to constantly update your blog with long posts? Have a look at Tumblr. Tumblr is an light-weight blogging platform for posting quick updates, pics, vids and links with just a click of the mouse. Tumblr comes with a good range of options for customizing your blogs (or Tumblelogs) design and functionality.

For The Casual Blogger

If you're not into fiddling around with settings and just want to focus on churning out posts than Blogger is for you. Blogger, a Google product is super easy to use yet still provides all the functionality a casual blogger needs.

For the Serious Blogger

Wordpress provides a much more powerful blogging experience allowing you to add an almost limitless set of features thanks to a huge developer community. A self-hosted Wordpress blog will give you access to a huge array of design options and plugins galore. Wordpress is alsosimple to use and will have you churning out the content in no time at all.
