Moumita — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 16:17:56 +0000

If you are a new blogger or an established one, there’s no doubt about it that you want to earn money with Google Adsense. One of the most important tricks to increase your adsense earning is to increase the click through ratio or CTR of your blog. Here are some of the effective ways to increase the CTR on your blog.

#1 Your AdSense ads should be so integrated into your blog or website that it does not look like an ad at first glance. Try and Avoid using a banner, as their response rate is very low.

#2 There is a tendency to react more on text ads as compared to image ads. So, use as much of text ads as possible in all the pages, which is in many cases mistaken as a part of online content and so is the higher click through rate.

#3 Make your ads blend with the background of your blog or website. Using ads without borders is a trick to attract more visitors.

#4 One of the most important factors is the placement of the ads, Try placing the ads just right below the title of the blog post or website page. There are higher chances to click on it, as the ads will look much closer to the content.

#5 No matter how much your blog or website is occupied with the Latest technologies or news. This is not all to make a blog popular, as you must implement unique and legal ways to bring in traffic. For this try using Google Adwords, Yahoo and Search Engine Optimization.

#6 Last, yet equally important is that the content of your blog posts or website must be unique. You also need to feed your blog or website with fresh and new relevant content to gain returning visitors.

Lax — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 06:58:40 +0000

After reading many inspirational stories about making money through blog, everyone gets motivated and works hard to earn money online. We select Google Adsense, Infolinks and other Affiliate program but no one likes to share revenue with third party, especially when you work hard to drive huge traffic and make your blog successful. Why not to get the sponsors for your blog directly? Sounds tough, it’s not that tough. You just need to work smartly and with proper planning.

Here are few tips to follow before you hunt for sponsors for your blog:

#1 Be Positive and Keep Patience

You have to keep patience if you are starting to hunt for sponsors; it is not a one day task, you will get quite a bit of ups and downs while searching. It is always advisable that you should start with small retailers and know what kind of traffic they are exactly looking for. You should also research whether your blog satisfy their requirements or not. They might provide you less amount in starting but if your blog keep on giving good results and show confidence to them they will surely give more money. Just be positive and keep patience.

#2 Target Right Advertisers

You should mail for sponsorship for those companies or advertisers who need same traffic which you generate for your blog. Their product should complement your articles and overall blog. For Example, if you have technology related blog then choose software products or computer accessories products or eBooks. This will help increase your sales and thus you can give good response to your sponsors.

#3 Show What you Can Offer to Sponsor

When you approach any sponsor, let them know USP’s of your blog. Make them know how sponsor will be in win-win position after advertising on your blog. Show your traffic details and search engine ranking, give them attractive offers. Try to convince them very positively and never irritate them with constant mails and offline message, give them some time to think and get back to you. Your attitude represent your blog and thus to impress sponsor you have to sell yourself and be polite and professional.

#4 Design of your Blog

Apart from professional presentation, you need to work on your blog presentation. Your logo, favicon, theme and loading time of your blog should be decent and attractive. Funky designs and themes don’t attract sponsors, they generally require some professional theme where visitors like to spend long time and view their advertisement details.

Hope these basic points will help you to get good sponsors .Wish you luck for earning online.

How to Earn Online from Affiliate Programs

Lax — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 16:29:46 +0000

As you have already seen in many websites/blogs that they show Affiliate links or banners. You can also earn a good deal doing same for your own website/blog. This article will start you up on the basic things for starting to use the affiliate programs for your own domains.

How does this Whole thing Work…

This thing works on commissions. Suppose your pages show an affiliate link to a merchants website named X. So if any of your visitors clicks on the link a cookie is sent to his machine. This cookie tracks from which affiliate(which is you) it is coming from, thereby crediting his account with a commission. Now if the visitor buys a product/service from the merchant website then again the referring affiliate(which is you) will be paid. Now this way you can earn a ton.

Relevancy is First Step to Success…

Well starting from search results & ranging upto site content relevancy is the only thing that makes netizens happy. This rule also applies for online advertising too. Google Adsense is so popular only because of its relevancy of ads. Whatever we are not here to discuss Google Ads so lets come to the point. Look out for affiliates that provides most relevant ads for your website/blog. So if you are running a blog which provides blogging tips then you must go for a affiliate which provides domain ads or provides SEO services which is more relevant to your content than an affiliate that provides ads on MS-Office downloads.

Get Started with One…

Well now that we are sure what to Do choose we must start by signing up with one of them. The basic steps are:

Fill up a sign-up form providing details of you & your website/blog. They generally provide a general guidelines to fill up the form. Try to stick to the guidelines.

After submission you have to wait for some time. This delay is due to the verification of your website/blog. This is related to your acceptance in the program. So make sure to provide the proper details in the first step. Though there are many that will let you start right-away.

After you receive their confirmation you can start putting their ads on your pages. But Avoid putting questionable content like copyrighted content, adult or vulgar content etc on your pages.

Putting Ads on your Pages..Technical Know How

With all things done, now comes the most important part. How to add those ads on your pages?? Well its a vast topic as it varies widely. But there is a common principle that works with all of them(affiliate programs). Those are few simple steps :

Log in to account with your username & password.

Now go to the part where you can select from wide range of ads(sizes, types).

When you have selected the ad, you will get the code you will be provided with a code to show the ad.

Copy the code & paste it onto the portion of the code(of your page) where you want to display the ad.

Finally…

So now that we are almost done introducing ourselves to an affiliate program we have to monitor the performance of the ads on a daily basis. There is no shortcut or convention regarding this. You have to do your own research regarding this. Well somewhat later I’ll be focusing on a detailed discussion on this topic too.

Till you can keep searching for your own resources for this. All for now. Happy Blogging !!!

Here, I will tell you different ways using which you can get donation from the readers.

What Are the Different Ways To Collect Money Through Donations?

#1 ScratchBack

ScratchBack is an online “tipping” system (or as we like to call it, a fancy-schmancy tip jars). It allows you, the blogger, to accept tips and “give back” links or Images in return on your blog or website. It’s absolutely free service. You can first accept tip and earn money from every tip you get. You don’t need to have any special skills to use or setup. This is considered to be very useful for podcasters too.

PayPal donations are very common way to collect donations from your site. You just need to add a button on your website or you can use a link in your email. PayPal Donations is a low cost way for you to accept credit card and bank account donations. Integrate PayPal Donations with your website in a few easy steps. It’s very easy to implement with no necessary CGI scripting. There are no up-front costs – you’ll have the same low fee schedule used when you receive other PayPal payments.

How to Encourage your Readers to Come Forward for Donations?

We all know that one will not go for any kind of donation if he/she is not getting anything out of it. So, first of all your site should contain information that are very useful to them. This is ideal for those who are allowing their readers to download some product and make use of it for free. You should first make a separate page for donation purpose. Then you can mention the reason for asking donation along with the different ways through which they can donate like paypal, chipin or scratchback etc.

You can also put up the list of those who have made donations with the person donating Maximum at top with his/her donation amount. You should also put the Permalink of the person’s blog with his name. These have a good impact on the reader’s mind and they easily come forward to donate and be on the list.

Let me know if you have any donation page in your blog? What Do you feel about them?

Importance & Tips to Create a Personal Advertise Page

Lax — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 18:20:37 +0000

When we say ads, most of the times we mean Google. And when its Google its really is very high-paying ads & the relevancy rocks. This is more or less true for all the other ad networks too. This is because the wide range of advertisers they tap in. They also have big economy to deal with millions of potential advertisers monthly & also have a higher credibility. Well they also have certain drawbacks too…

Firstly & mostly they eat-up almost a lion-share of the money they get from the advertisers for showing ads on your site. And secondly the ads showing on your site are auto-generated(based on some keywords).

Advantages of Having Your Own Blog Advertising Page:

Firstly whatever money comes its all yours, no middle man will be eating on your back.

Secondly you have the control over selection of ads, no need to show unnecessary ads like a matrimonial ad on a tech related blog.

Thirdly you can earn more revenue with less ad slots occupied & this will please your readers too.

Now that we are very sure of what we are going to gain from the blog advertising page, now we will focus on how to make an Advertising page fruitful one.

#1 Tell them What your Blog is all About: The first and most important part of the page. This part will introduce you to the potential advertiser. So make sure you describe your blog well. Make sure your words deliver the right message to the advertiser.

#2 Show Off your Stats: Well this is something that you should declare so that the advertiser gets a clean idea of the site performance. Well for a very new blog its very low but you could offer a cheap pricing to compensate this. But my experience is that, you won’t grab deals until your blog gets at least 500+visitors/day. But please Do not fake.

#3 Offer a Reasonable Pricing: Well this is another very important part of the page & the Advertising Campaign for your blog. Be careful while choosing the rates for the ad places. Suppose you get a decent traffic that is very targeted then you can demand good money. You could also look advertiser who aim for cheap rates. I suggest go for cheap rates at first then with increasing demand increase your rates too.

#4 Convince them on Why they Should Put their Ads here: You have to convince the advertiser about the potential that your site has to generate leads for the advertiser. To focus on these you can refer to the type of audience that your blog gets or you could simply talk about the economic plans that you offer. It could be simply anything that you think is good for an advertiser and is valid for your blog at the same time.

#5 Show ad Places: Show the advertisers the places you want to put ads on. It can vary with your site template. The most lucrative spots are one 468X60 unit beside the header & one 300X250 above the content & one 300X250 unit in the sidebar(above the fold). Other than these you can also offer multiple 125X125 ad units in the sidebar. But be careful, do not stuff your pages with ads. This will affect your audience base.

#6 Finally an Ending Note: And finally just put together all the previous points & make a final impact on your advertisers’ mind convincing him to try your advertising at least once. And if you feel you are creating a win-win situation for your advertisers then they will surely come back.

That’s all for now. And if you think there is anything more that can be done to optimize your ad pages please share them in the comments.

Flixya:100% AdSense Revenue Sharing Platform for Image &Video Lovers..!

Lax — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 15:15:27 +0000

As you know recently am looking into long term steady money making ways. I found that Adsense revenue sharing platforms are the easiest and risk free to start on. Recently we started using SheToldMe.com(Just submitted 3 article links and got $2 till now), which is also 100% AdSense revenue sharing platform where you can submit your favorite links. But today I found a new platform called Flixya, where in you can submit videos, photos & blogs to earn money.

You just need to signup for free and submit your favorite videos or photos anywhere from the web. Flixya will serve your AdSense ad units on that video or photo page. So if somebody clicks on that Ad, it will be accounted into your AdSense account.

Of course, it’s the same concept on which HubPages or DigitalPoint forums are running. But no one is offering you 100% revenue share. So with this concept and sites, anyone without owning a blog can earn some money just by sharing their favorite stuff.

By rewarding the community of contributing members at 100%, we feel Flixya represents the second generation of social networking and raises the bar by setting the standard for the future of online social responsibility.

Said Adam Oliver, Flixya Co-founder and CEO

Why it’s easy & risk free:

You’ll understand the reason why I said it’s easy and risk free, If you found any good video or image, definitely you will store it somewhere online or you will share it with your friends right? You can Do the same thing on Flixya. But still you can make some money if someone opens your ads on that page.

Are you making any extensive effort here? Probably no, because you’re doing what you love to do anyway . And its risk free because you don’t need to bother about site maintenance or AdSense account safety.

Flixya: How it works

You will just signup and share your favorite stuff, but while singing up you will give your AdSense information like Email id, Zip code & last 5 digits of phone number. Flixya will detect your publisher id and will serve ads according to that.

So obviously if someone clicks on that Ad, which will be credited to your AdSense account directly.

Think in this way, you will submit some stuff now, but the Ads on that page will be served for life. So you can image how much you can make for life from that. Respectable amount in worst situation also right?

My main intension here is that, look for some long term money making ways.
