There are several sites that offer you a free membership and the change to blog about whatever topic that you choose.

I’ve recently purchased a WordPress plugin that automates blog advertising management – OIO Publisher.

I genuinely think that this WordPress plugin is one of the must-have plugin if you are serious about making money online.

Why? Because ads management can be confusing, at times. You have to manage your advertising clients’ payment. Be thankful if your clients want to use auto-payment subscription. If your clients are not comfortable with payment subscription, contacting and renewing the client ads are really a hassle. Make that a headache if you have dozens of advertising clients and dozens of websites – even hundreds

The following are some of the main benefits of OIO Publisher you can’t deny

OIO Publisher eliminates the need for middlemen

Using advertising management service, such as BuySellAds.com, cost you a large chunk of percentage from your ad sales. Not good.

You might say that BuySellAds.com has a perk: A marketplace that exposes your ads sales more. If you think that as a perk, think again – OIO Publisher manages your ads without the need of any middlemen, plus you can list your website on OIO Publisher Marketplace.

OIO Publisher Ad Server allows you to manage many ads on many sites in one centralized location

If you run multiple websites or blogs, you will find this WordPress plugin very helpful and powerful – OIO Publisher can have your blog as an ad server, managing ad spaces on your network of sites and blogs on a single, centralized, place.

OIO Publisher can run on non-Wordpress powered websites

Yes, OIO Publisher can manage ads on non-Wordpress powered websites, through the embeddable Javascript. Of course, you need the Ad Server to be set up on your WordPress-powered site.

Not only on blogs, I have OIO manage ads on my PHPLD-powered and eSyndicat-powered web directories How’s that for flexibility?

How much OIO Publisher will cost me?

The plugin costs $47, and if you want to claim it now, you can have $10 discount using this OIO Publisher promo code: INDIGO-NOOB0509

In my opinion, $47 ($37 with the promo code) is a small investment that can return you exponentially in your resource management. Managing ads is time consuming, and hiring staff can drain your cash – Stop managing your ads manually, start managing your ads automatically with OIO Publisher.

Few Affiliate Marketing Tips for Super Profits

admin — Tue, 12 May 2009 09:54:10 +0000

There are many people who have set up quite an Affiliate marketing website to get their side businesses running and make them some hard earned cash. They try to set up an inquisitive online empire by trying to duplicate their efforts with more products and even better products. However, they have quite understood thoroughly through experience that more profit would be generated with more sales and that will only turn up with more visitors. So to get themselves recognized by these potential visitors they have started adopting techniques to get their business booming.

In the eyes of the pros there are certain details that need your ultimate attention. To drive maximum traffic you may need to do a little bit of SEO on your own. An Affiliate Marketer would not necessarily require and would not be able to afford expensive professionals to provide for its SEO services. However, a couple techniques if used effectively would reap some very tasty fruits.

Long tail Keywords – This is one method that many people do not concentrate upon but its usage is quite effective. According to a research, there are about 80% people search at search engines to buy their desired products and if one hits the nail right you turn your business to gold. When they search there are several other keywords attached to their searches that help in driving towards a niche market. This process tends to bring in more organic traffic rather than the paid ones; Therefore you are prone to see higher results.

To check out which niche long tail keyword would be best for your website to have in its Meta tags and be able to target them. Just sit on for a search through any popular search engine and search for a product with perhaps more details as a customer would think. It’s just a matter of trial and error to get that keyword phrase. When you find a particular long tail keyword that has perhaps less than a thousand websites listed but still a lot of sponsored links then you should know you have reached it.

Product selection – This is one important task as to select what kind of product you can promote best using your resources and skills. It is always better to choose a product you have knowledge about or you find it profitable. There might be different types of marketing programs that you might be following like PPC or Pay per Sale program, so it is for you to select which product could best synchronize with your type of marketing strategy.

Keep aligned to Google paid ads – It really pays off to know the kind of services that you are offered by Google. For instance keeping a track of the adsense and adwords campaigns that you might be having are the ones you could really learn from. Check your adsense account for the keywords that you get a good price for and try to use them and also adapt to changes if any by making singular words to plural.

Why Relying on Google PageRank is Wrong

admin — Sun, 03 May 2009 01:56:34 +0000

During my journey in make money online, I have concluded that one of the major mistakes that people are keep doing is to rely your online money making campaign on Google PageRank.

Totally misleading and entirely wrong decision. Why?

PageRank, as you might already knew, is a measurement from 1 to 10 of how Google rank sites based on their popularity, of course, in the eyes of Google. Having a PageRank 7 is way much better than having a PageRank 3.

Does having a high PageRank help you rank higher in search engine result pages? Not necessarily.

There are PageRank 0 web pages that rank #1 on a certain keyword, because it’s popular in the eyes of Google. For instance, getting linked by an .edu (educational sites) is worth more than even 1000 .com links.

So again, PageRank is not related to your ability to rake in traffic.

One of my blogs received about 700 visits with 400 uniques every day with a PageRank 3, while my other blogs only receive about 100 visits with 50 uniques every day with a PageRank 5. Who makes more money? No brainer – the former one.

You see, all I can do with a PageRank 5 is selling links (90% links with dofollow attribute,) while I can do much more thing with my PageRank 3 site with good incoming traffic from search engines.

Of course, having a PageRank 5 with high traffic is very desirable, but it’s not the case that everyone can achieve

So, a conclusion: Will having a high PageRank help? Yes – It might get you good money on limited time (until you get caught by Google selling links, and penalised your PageRank) and it’s good for your ego (It’s a standard uses by many to measure SEO and link building success.)

Having said that, can I rely on PageRank? Of course not, if your vision is long term. If your make money onilne method involves buying dropped domains with high PageRank, sell links, and forget, this could be very, very lucrative

I do try that before – buy a PageRank 5 domain name, set a simple site, sell links, and rake in dollars after dollars, until it gets Page Rank 0 – penalised by Google for selling links

Believe me, link building and SEO are worthless in the above case – On that site, I’ve build well from nothing to something and have several PR6 backlinks with almost 15,000 in back links. Plain useless, if you sell links…

So, there you go. Will you rely on Google PageRank to make money online? You could, but you will become what a colleague called me before: A link pimp. ‘Your choice…
