Google Adsense, 10 gold tips

  1. To remember: no more than 3 ads for content units, 3 link units and 2 search boxes per webpage. Do not pass these limits.
  2. Be careful before to add your ads in another website. If you're not sure if the website's content is under Google rules or not, contact them or post your question in Adsense FORUM. Even a woman in bikini can go under Google ban target.
  3. Do not click on your own ads, even if they really interest you.
  4. Do not put Google ads in pop-ups.
  5. You can give your Google adsense code to a freind to make him add it in his website (under Google rules).
  6. If you have a big amount of concurrents, SERP rivals, they can play a bad joke to you stealing your adsense code, posting it on another website (porn for example) and make you banned. Use the limitation option in "Allowed sites" in your account - allowed sites are sites or URLs on which AdSense publishers allow or wish to have their Google ads displayed - every click on your ads outside your allowed links are null.
  7. Remember to not make your content ads a lot showy, like too bright colours, instead, integrate them in the site making them almost indistinguishable from it.
  8. Adsense hot position: https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/answer.py?answer=17954
  9. The first ad of a set of 3, for example, is always the best paid -->
  10. Read the tips above occasionally.

Ok, if I'll remember other suggestions, I'll post them in this poster. Next time!

Farewell PageRank, removed from Google Toolbar

It was a long time that we spoke of the meaning and utility of PageRank. Indeed in many forum and community dedicated to the positioning, and the factors related to search engine optimization, is often heightened the tone and manner when dealing with the problem on the importance of PageRank for a website and its webmaster.

In fact, these days we got a confirmation that we many SEO were expecting, PageRank algorith isn't important anymore, if not to give a touch of green color to the toolbar that now is completely absent. 

Goodbay PAgerank, Google said this. This was announced by the removal from the webmaster tools, and by its staff likewise.

I remember when I said that a backlink on a high pagerank and alexa website is really good, but the most important thing it has always been the visibility --> more traffic --> more clicks. 

And, after this gem, some SEO already talk about some sort of substitution, like QualityRank or TrafficRank more accurate than those currently available.

Probably, links sellers that relied completely pagerank will suffer a lot for this, nevertheless, eliminating the pagerank will solve a multitude of other problems and scams associated with it.

PDF Search Engines

Looking for ebooks online became easier day after day, in the last years popped out many search engines for ebooks, PDF format (later, in another post, we will talk about these PDF Search Engine Script). Now, let's see the most famous and popular

search engines for pdf

:

Languages: [ar] [cn] [de] [en] [es] [fr] [it] [jp] [pt] [tr] [ru]
Example: if you type "make money guide" in the search bar you can get many results, and this is one of them Make Money at Home – User's Guide 2#

Languages: [en]
Example: if you type "make money guide" in the search bar, you can get many results, and again this is one of them Make Money at Home – User's Guide position 2# too, but the rest of results are different and more keyword related respect the site above.

Languages: [en]
Example: if you type "make money guide" in the search bar, the PDF cited above does not compare in the first page, few targeted results are showed.

PDF Stack
Languages:
[en]
Example: if you type "make money guide" in the search bar, the PDF cited above does not compare in the first page but the other results are enough keyword related.



The other
search engines
that follow show more or less the same results as these four, so there is no need to do the same searches on all engines.

How to check Pagerank of Internal Pages

Why is it useful

check internal pagerank

?

In terms of control of your site is useful because you know the ratings that Google has established for the inside pages linked on your site home. And according to this, you can choose the most effective way to make money in relation to the evaluation of every single page. E.g. an internal page with PR 3 may be useful for reciprocal exchange links without having to insert them on the home page.

In the case of sites that are not yours but which you may be interested in for the sake of backlinks, here is a tool to make the most of those pages listed by Google.

Web Diagnostic Tool | Check PR of all internal domain's links
Useful, mostly if you'll sell links on your pages and want to check how the result of your SEO efforts.

You can generate revenue from your web site by selling simple text link ads on your pages with at least pagerank 1. You can increase your search engine rankings and link popularity by purchasing quality one way text links at the lowest prices.
  • 4 daily query limit.
  • Takes few minutes for more than 50 pages to analyze.
  • Extremely accurate.
  • To rembember: The internal pages examined by this tool are just the pages linked on the home page. If a site has 2000 pages indexed, but only 80 linked on the home page, just those 80 pages will be analyzed.
Now a very practical example, imagine to be a blogger and that you're trying to post a comment, in order to have a good backlink, to another blog more popular (DoFollow). You have the popular blog home url, post the link in the tool above and choose the best post where to post your comment with your keyword.

Webmaster Utilities: images, diagnostic, video recording, etcetera.

Every webmaster needs a collection of utilities to maintain a website in good form and to update it quickly and effortless. Depending on the topic discussed in the website, if you are a webmaster without your own host, you'll certainly need a web space, possibly free, where you will upload the images that after are posted on the site, if the service that host the site does not support it. Then, you can try Image Hosting - ImageHosting.com [dedicated servers host your images for free, up to 1.5MB in file size, any type of image file can be uploaded, no limit on time photos will be stored].

Run a full diagnostic helps maintain the site in good condition, to correct any errors and to improve its performance. Online there are many of free services about web analysis and diagnostic, and this is one of the most complete solutions: Website Diagnostics, it gives informations about robots.txt file, Google Website Information ( penalized or not ), indexed pages,  linking, indexing, server, ranking information.

If it is the case that you run a site that show most of all videotutorial, you will undoubtedly need a program, preferably free, to create and manage your videos. Krut Computer Recorder [Krut Computer Recorder is a tool develope to record audio and video from your computer screen into .mov and  .wav files], CamStudio [CamStudio is able to record all screen and audio activity on your computer and create industry-standard AVI video files and using its built-in SWF Producer can turn those AVIs into lean, mean, bandwidth-friendly Streaming Flash videos (SWFs)] or the already mentioned in this blog Debut Video Capture Software [Debut Video Capture free version record videos in many different file formats including avi, wmv, flv, asf, mpg, 3gp, mp4, mov and more. Record from your webcam, screen or video input device (eg. VHS recorder).Record almost anything - anything you can see on your monitor can be recorded].

Now suppose instead that you need to translate a few lines of text in a language almost unknown to you, panic! No, online there are tons of translators, but not all of them are so professional like a human being (in some cases it is the opposite, but that's another talk). Babylon is a service very professional and useful, but it's not free. An valid alteranative, for free, is Google translator service, whereas, a very good alternative is NiceTranslator [Nice Translator is the fast, easy to use online translator designed with simplicity in mind].

Free altervative to Adobe Dreamweaver and Office FrontPage? Supposing that, you do not have ideas but do not want to follow the advice of others because you believe that everyone has their needs and skills. You can go to AlternativeTo and check for free alternative of Dreamweaver, for example. Never heard about Notepad++? Notepad++ is a free web pages editor, workinkg in MS Windows, which supports several programming languages.

If you really want to make money online, then, never give up.

Someone will tell you that make money online, with internet, is a nonsense, many others may tell you that is as simple as open a jam tin, none of the two choices are true. Until now, in this blog we talked about many of the easy and hard things in making money online but the most important rule to gain success is defined by your determination. If you want, you can do it; if you may want, you may can do it, if you do not really want it, you never get it.

What’s easy and what’s not? Some examples…

To open a blog is really easy, blogger, Wordpress… All free, and write posts and article can be easy if the topics you deal with are familiar to you.

To open a website is as easy but needs a little amount of self-confidence, well, you have to invest some money.

Sign up for Google AdSense is so easy like 1,2,3. Instead, maintaining your AdSense account requires some common sense.

Build a decent number of backlinks is not so easy. Nonetheless, even 3 more links per day, with no more than one hour a day, is enough to make your personal Web space steps forward.

Don’t lose your willpower after many nulled efforts is really hard, and yet, every time you start from zero, after mistakes and bad attempts, you will have more experience points to play.

Unfortunately time and excitement don’t travel in parallel lane. It’s hard to wait for results but when that happen to come, it’s worth all the moments spent in expectation.

Sometimes your family may not support you at all, that’s really hard to bear. But, prove with facts that you were right is priceless.

Indexing your new WebSpace is enough easy, just a matter of time, to position your site on the top 10 results in the most famous search engine is hard but not impossible. To satisfy Yahoo.com position requirements is enough simple, to satisfy Google’s is moderately hard.

To make tests with your already positioned Website is really hard, to make tests with an expressly test created site is easy.

So, easy or hard, don’t give up! You can learn

how to write good content

,

how to build a blog

or understand the language of search engines, there are many good guides online and you may want to learn how to avoid scams.
Willingness --> Training --> Time --> Results.

Make money business, recap after summer

Hi to everyone! September is already started and I haven’t posted anything yet, I have to take care of this. I must admit that during summer I was very lazy about blogging, I thought that if I left internet for more than three days I would have missed it and instead is was pretty good to stay disconnected from the virtual world, even if just for few days.

Here in Italy there were up to 40 Celsius grades, like 105 Fahrenheit. Anyway, the last news about the online make money business and a recap of the last months, all these topic are discussed in this blog:

  • Twitter, Myspace, Yahoo Answers!, Youtube are free innovative services where to promote your business.
  • Microsoft new born search engine, Bing, is doing good.
  • Google algorithm changed further its features (canonical, page weight, content quality…) [See Matt Cutts blog].
  • DoFollow blogs are what you need to promote you websites for free, online there are list like this, often given away after payments: http://www.social-media-optimizations.com/Blog%20Comments%20Links.pdf
  • Adbrite is still showing Snap LinkAds ads, I suppose that its customers complains were useless
  • PageRank updates are most frequent
  • Squidoo Hubpages, squidoo, ehow, zimbio and similar are the best free alternative to a personal website.
  • Yahoo! Publisher Network is a still a Beta Program unavailable for non-US members.

I think these are the new main subjects discussed here starting from January 2009.

Optimize your site for Bing.com Search Engine


To increase the chances of earning online, is certainly important to optimize your site also on the new Microsoft search engine,
Bing
.

Useful resources:
Bing Webmaster Tool
Bing Official Blog
How to implement search of RSS feeds

by Peters Williams
Posted on August 10, 2009

Microsoft recently released a new 24 page document titled Bing: New Features Relevant to Webmasters. The PDF file detailed not only interface updates on Bing, Microsoft's own decision search engine, but also provides SEO tips for webmasters and web publishers. In addition, the white paper document contains instructive guidelines on how to create friendly, easy to index websites, as well as ways to make sites look attractive to search engine spiders.

Webmaster's center

Bing's primary function is to bridge users with websites and content across the Internet, a target all search engines aim for. So, what is different from other search engines you may ask? Unlike ordinary search engines, Bing offers categorized choices. Users can select options from the side tool bar, picking more to-the-point selections which, in the end, will reduce the amount of irrelevant sites popping up and saving the Bing users a lot of valuable time.

Long tail strategies

Did you know that more than 300 factors are used in determining categorization and that the categories that appear are entity-dependent? For example: if you search for [baby monitor], the search results may offer you options, such as "shopping", "reviews", "ratings", and "videos", splitting up the search in convenient sections . Microsoft believes that this innovative way of organizing results provides new long tail opportunities for website owners.

Best match

A key objective of Bing is to deliver premium search results and one of the ways the search engine approaches this goal is through a new feature called "Best match." Watch what happens when you conduct a search for a particular brand, such as Adidas, Toys R Us, Campbell's, or Chrysler. The result is amazing. Bing will actually separate the official sites of these brands from the rest of the results, featuring a "Best Match".

Bing Hover Links preview

One of the cool features Bing has to offer is "Bing Hover links". Just hover your mouse over your search results and a window will pop up on the right of it. It will show a summary of that specific query result, as well as and important links related to that result. Webmasters feel this feature increases qualified traffic and helps searcher to find the information they want without having to leave the Search Engine Result Page (SERP). This time-saving feature is truly appreciated by Bing users.

How webmasters influence their keywords position

What’s the meaning behind this post title? Well, if you are a webmaster the next example will clarify everything about it. The main concept spin around these three situations: a webmaster build a new project (or niche), then they choose the keywords for that niche and eventually the webmaster check for the site’s evolution in the web.

In simple terms, every time that a webmaster search for a date keyword on Google.com or Yahoo! or any other search engine they change the keyword position in the list of the most searched, mostly if it is a less famous keyword.

Take Google Adwords Tool for keywords: https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

Using this tool you can have approximatively the state of a keyword in any place of the world, nearly in real time. So, what happens if a few thousands of webmasters are checking everyday their site position on google.com for a keyword like “make money at home” or “make money online”?

At the end, every search engine esteem will be deeply influenced by a large (if the keyword is relatively popular) group of webmasters that are trying to check a site position under that keyword.

To consider that, this idea is to be weighed according to the keyword importance and typology. The keywords regard
make money business
online are, usually, searched by a low percentage of people compared to keyword of public domain such as “free music mp3” for example. In the latter case, the relationship between webmasters research and all the other people research will be insignificant.

Search Engines, how many of them? How do they work?

I already said that SEO and make money online business are tight connected, in this post are summarized the most important informations about search engines functioning.

Online there are thousands of search engines (often shortened in SE), but just focus on the major ones: we definitely know Google.com, Yahoo.com, Bing.com (ex MSN Live Search), Altavista.com, Lycos.com; and also SE a little less famous like Nerooo.com and Cuil.com. These search engines are all independent, that means the results showed by each one is restrict to its search engine’s algorithm.

Then, there are SE affiliate to Google.com (AOL, Ask.com, Libero, etcetera), and this means that the results showed by them are the same results listed by Google for a date keyword typed. Like mirror sites. In few words, searching something in them is like doing it in Google.

At last there are even lesser famous SE sites, but still recognized, like:

- Yoozila (http://www.yoozila.com)
- Excite (http://www.excite.com)
- HotBot (http://www.hotbot.lycos.com)
- Searchme (http://www.searchme.com)
- Kartoo (http://www.kartoo.com)
- Mamma (http://www.mamma.com)

And apart from all the name cited above (probably I've forgotten some others), there are thousands of minor SE sites.

Three concepts key about SE importance in make money business and the reason that pushes a moneymaker would-be to study them:

a) A site optimized for SE is a powerful "tool" to make money online.
b) They form the flow that drive potential customers to your websites.
c) You can advertise on them, even if your site is not listed [paying a recurring amount of money]

[Extract from: Search Engine Manifesto]

Search Engines are internet special sites that are designed to help people find information previously added on other sites. There are differences in the ways the major Search Engines work, but they all perform three basic tasks:

  • They search the Internet or select pieces of the Internet - based on important words
  • They keep an index of the words they find and where they find them
  • They allow users to look for words or combinations of words found in that index.

Search Engine will index hundreds of millions of pages, and respond to tens of millions of queries per day. To find information on the hundreds of millions of Web pages that exist, a Search Engine employs special program robots, called spiders, to build lists of the words found on Web sites.
When a spider is building its lists, the process is called web crawling.

In order to build and maintain a useful list of words, a spider have to look at a lot of pages. How does any spider start its crawling over the Web? The usual starting points are lists of heavily used servers and very popular pages. The spider will begin with a popular site, indexing the words on its pages and following every link found within the site. In this way, the spidering system quickly begins to travel, spreading out across the most widely used portions of the Web.

Once the spiders have completed the task of finding information on Web pages, the Search Engine must store the information in a way that makes it useful.

There are two key components involved in making the gathered data accessible to users:

  • The information stored with the data
  • The method by which the information is indexed.

In the simplest case, a Search Engine could just store the word and the URL where it was found. In reality, this would make for an engine of limited use, since there would be no way of telling whether the word was used in an important or a trivial way on the page, whether the word was used once or many times or whether the page contained links to other pages containing the word. In other words, there would be no way of building the ranking list that tries to present the most useful pages at the top of the list of search results.

To make for more useful results, most Search Engines store more than just the word and URL. A Search Engine might store the number of times that the word appears on a page. The engine might assign a weight to each entry, with increasing values assigned to words as they appear near the top of the document, in sub-headings, in links, in the META tags or in the title of the page. Each commercial Search Engine has a different formula for assigning weight to the words in its index. This is one of the reasons that a search for the same word on different Search Engines will produce different lists, with the pages presented in different orders.

An index has a single purpose: it allows information to be found as quickly as possible. There are quite a few ways for an index to be built, but one of the most effective ways is to build a hash table. In hashing, a formula is applied to attach a numerical value to each word.

The formula is designed to evenly distribute the entries across a predetermined number of divisions. This numerical distribution is different from the distribution of words across the alphabet, and that is the key to a hash table's effectiveness.

When a person requests a search on a keyword or phrase, the Search Engine software searches the index for relevant information. The software then provides a report back to the searcher with the most relevant web pages listed first.

Make money business: Niche Market

There is a word that I haven’t used until now, in all the post I have wrote in make money business blog,
niche
. We are referring to the niche in online marketing. I simply don’t like this term but in reference to business projects and business strategies and like synonymous of place of interest or place all one's own I have used it many times. A niche can be your center/sector of interest, in other words.

So, what is it a
niche in business
? It can be defined like a segment of a small market where a business plan managed to achieve a dominant market share, as can be, for example, in the car sector, the niche referring to luxury cars. Also understood as a group of buyers who share common features to which generally small and medium-sized companies are concentrating their efforts on differentiating the product as best as possible.

Why is a good choice to focalize on a
niche market
? Because you don’t want to be a fish in a ocean or have millions of rivals but you want to be alone in doing something, or one of the few. Promoting a small business product (niche) gives to you the opportunity to provide a product that the others businessmen are not pursuing.

In few words:
  1. Concentrate all your efforts in building a project about a single product
  2. Provide concrete information about your product, new/uncommon products are what makes a niche market works in a small business
But, how you can
sell a new product
if no one knows it? In that can help a lot the advertising. The important thing is that it works, the rest will came. An Anti-Acne Soap that doesn’t do the thing it should do is not a good product choice, never less a good niche market sector. As a software about backlinks building, if it’s not good can became the base for a business disaster.

Example: “make money online” niche. It’s a keyword so generic in 2009 that the people who had searched for that may happen to came in a lots of sites that talk about all except how to make money online, giving a mess of information (I’m not talking of the decennary online money maker gurus, of course).

“How to make money with camera”, well in this case I don’t think how someone can misplace its objective, it’s enough to talk about all relations between money and cameras, online or not.

How to avoid scam sites, suspicious circumstances

Another analysis about a web site - seo-back-links.com - which sells: Backlinks, articles submissions, social bookmarking submission, directory submissions, blog comments posting and software distributions. Surely they are all great services, but now we will see that, apart from the premises, the site in question does not seem to be as well reliable.

Firstly, a site that declares to be a link building service usually has plenty of backlinks itself with a medium/high PR and Alexa rank, don’t you think? That should be the first thing to convince potential customers that this site offers effective services.

But, in this case, we see a mere PR 2 and an Alexa rank of 1,065,534, not so high.

And if you type in google: link:http://www.seo-back-links.com to make some research about the domain popularity, you’ll see that this site has little link popularity.

If you have time, check out this other web site - isellpagerank.com – this site has a PR 0 and an Alexa rank of 51,485. Strange? Truthful? Scam?

www.iSellPageRank.com - Buy text links to increase page rank. One way links to increase pagerank. Buy one way links to improve pagerank and increase link popularity. Our effective link building service offers page rank improvement.

How to expose a scam site? Apart from checking the popularity ranks showed before, a more valid system is to start searching online for opinions of other people, so: type “the domain of your interest + scam” in search engine like google, for this example: iSellPageRank.com+scam

Obvious just one bad opinion does not make a site really bad for sure, but many bad opinions… Make me think that maybe there is something true about it.

Crack, serial, torrent. You can use the force of these words legally to boost your make money biz

If you’re thinking that I support illegal files distribution, the answer is NO, I don’t. Nevertheless believe me if I say that adding words like torrent, serial, crack and similar, in an article about the presentation of a certain product can make reach your website by a lot more interested people. Is not something discovered yesterday and remember that, apart from adult content, the three words in the title of this post are at the first positions in the top ten of global search engines.

Before to focus on the topic, please do a little research on Google, typing “twittertraffic machines torrent”, just to show an example, and look at this third link:



The author of the article on Hubpages has astutely added this line “Twitter Traffic Machine For Free/Torrent/Download”

Or look at this other example “seo administrator crack”

The sixth result is a software directory, in this specific page we read at the bottom:

"SEO Administrator 4.23 Related Tags
seo administrator crack, seo administrator serial, seo , seo elitetool, seo book, seo analyzer, seo elitesoftware, seo tutorials"

But every linked tag point obviously to the same page. Remember that crack, serial and copyrighted files unauthorized distribution is ILLEGAL.

Now that the picture is clearer, try to see how you can take advantage of these keywords in articles, web pages and blog post writing. Where? How? Maybe the best place to put a line or two, is at the bottom of your article. You do not have to write, find here link a crack for this or a serial for that, remember to encourage not illegal activity. You can simply write that download product_name torrent, product_name serial, product_name crack, etcetera, is illegal.

In brief, the aim is to add crack and serial to content to gain more visitors and even sales. It is used by a lot of websites, because people search online almost always for a FREE alternative to a program or ebook. They give it a try, and if these people (many people) happen to come to your web page, at least your traffic will benefit and they may can decide to buy an original version.

Pagerank movements July 15, 2009

Cool! Google pagerank is updating every month! Or at least is what seems, check your website datacenter. 

We hope that it continues this way then, at least we can observe the changes  over a month and not 6-7 months as was the case some years ago.

Oh, Happy Holidays people! Stop thinking about making money online at least for a little time and relax you body and soul ;) Often "pull the plug" (or  take a break)  completely helps to develop new ideas unconsciously.

Blogspot.com domain and its spam etiquette

hypothesis of blogspot pro blogsStarting from not so long ago, and in recent times in particular, I’m sure that many of you, bloggers that use Blogger platform, have noticed that often (and this “often” is what makes me think about it) when you’re posting a comment in others blogs (mostly wordpress) or articles directories, it happens that you can’t effectively post anything if you add your site like yourdomain.blogspot.com, why? Because they added blogspot.com domain in their refused list, cause they received a lot of SPAM from this domain.

I wouldn’t say that this is a catastrophe, except if you point all your backlinks source from comments on other blogs. Yes, because not only many of them have a Nofollow tag, now the few Dofollow remarkable blogs are even more restricted for blogs with a blogspot.com domain.

From a point of view is more than understandable to preserve your blog from spam comments, but on the other hand this harm the honest bloggers who just try to participate in the debate with the chance to present their site, maybe just opened.

What can be done about this?

There are softwares that allow you to search for Dofollow blogs or search engines for do follow blogs, the firsts give to you more information (like PR), the seconds are FREE and more simple to use. Some example:

Search engines:

Softwares:

In alternative you can buy a domain and redirect your blog to that new address. This, which seems the most simple and fast solution, in fact conceals a major hitch, if your blog is well placed in search engines with the blogspot domain then all the process can be long and arduous, you have to start promotion all over again.

In the end, the free blog platforms become more and more penalized in one way or another, so if you can, you that are just thinking about entering the wonderful world of bloggers, take immediately into consideration the idea of buying a personal domain, because it's all another thing.

Useful previous post: Backlinks from comments (no spam!)

How do I Find Something to Sell?

Written by SaleHoo.com

Many people wanting to start an eBay business spend a lot of time fretting over what they will sell. Perhaps these questions are familiar: Where do I find ideas? Should I sell the most popular items? How do I know a good idea? These are important questions everyone faces.

eBay already contains so many items for sale that some sellers feel overwhelmed from the start wondering how they can possibly find a product idea when the market appears to be full anyway.

So where should you start then?

1. Your hobbies

This can be a great way of establishing a niche. Perhaps you love embroidery or making model airplanes? Chances are a lot of other people share this passion and are looking for related supplies. Crafts and hobbies is big market - however, before you jump in headfirst, make sure you do some research to back up the feasibility of your idea. eBay is a numbers game and no matter how great your idea is, it won't work if not enough people are interested. So be sure to use the completed listings search and test the market with some of your own supplies first.

2. Listen to what your friends and family are talking about

Sometimes the best ideas can arise from your friends and family. One seller says she overheard some women at the table next to her talking about the trouble they were having finding a particular brand of baby slings. This got her thinking, and, after a bit of research, she realized they were a foreign brand and hard to find in the USA. A wee bit of research later and she had found a supplier and was successfully selling online. So keep your eyes and ears open! If people you know are looking for a particular item, chances are others will too.

3. Research newspapers and magazines

Newspapers and magazines can provide a ton of information on trends and styles. Just browsing the headlines can often be enough to spark a new idea. Try sitting down with a pen and notebook and skimming the pages of popular magazines and daily newspapers. You should have a list of at least 10 ideas by the end.

4. eBay Seller Central

eBay itself has a fantastic resource in the Seller Central area 'What's Hot'. Every month, a list of super hot, very hot and hot items are published. This is a great way to find ideas but remember that everyone on eBay also has access to this information! The merchandising calendar is also a useful resource.

All successful sellers sell several products, rather than putting all of their eggs into one basket. Not only can trends change with the wind, but some products are only popular during a particular season. For example, dehumidifiers are more popular during winter than summer, while lawnmowers are super hot in spring and have a practically non-existent market in the winter.

5. Find out what your buyers are buying

A good way of expanding your product range is by 'spying' on your buyers. After making a sale, check your buyer's feedback and find out what other items they have been purchasing recently. This will help you get to know what your target market are interested in and expand your range accordingly.

Finding something to sell can seem daunting at first, but I guarantee that once you think of one idea, plenty of others will quickly follow!

Traffic is not everything to make money online, 8 suggestions

Although the main concern is to get more visitors as possible, is not enough to ensure success. Previously we have talked about good content and useful tips, but gain and amount of hits towards a site does not promise an equal number of profits. How to get the most out from visits?

Try to see your site by the visitor view. I know it’s hard to imagine to see your site for the first time after opened it for the umpteenth time, but you can ask for help to one of your friends of relative. So you can correct any problems about the graphics definition. What seem nasty to you, will probably also annoy others.

Eliminate confusion. A website can contain a sea of information, but must all be connected and divided in following pages, it’s unthinkable to store a quantity of information equal to a book only on a home page, for example. I have often visited web pages that also weighed 1 MB, only the text, a little discouraging to read, don’t you think?

Each site has its own needs. There are sites that sell products and those who rely on advertising all the revenues - Better point on PPC Advertising or Affiliation to make money online? - they have to be organized in different ways.

Give to visitors what they expect to find on the first visual impact. If they are images, videos or text, the important thing is that immediately jumps to the eye.

Less Popup the better. More than one I think is really annoying. Ensure the visitor the freedom to choose where to go is a good thing.

Clarity. If you have to say (write) something, say it without turning around it for too long, the periphrasis are tiring.

Capture visual/mental attention. Banner goes for the visual of course and text for the mental attention. Mix the two things? Text within images, banner. Do tests by yourself, visit some web sites and note what catches your attention first.

Moderates the use of superlatives. Many are fed up with reading words like the best, the greatest, the fastest, etcetera. Simply people just tend to take more superficial words like these matched with online products, especially today, unless justified by valid proofs.

Another PR update | June 2009

When was the last update? May. Google is really accelerating time this year. Now, maybe Google has seriously potentiating the action of its algorithms, the last time I wrote: 

[…]recently Google PR is updating very fast compared to past times. Who knows if it continues at this rate or is it just a temporary thing.


Well, at this pace, it will be a lot better to webmasters. More frequent the updates will be and more realistic will be the PR value on the green bar of the browser. Maybe in the near future there will be updates in real time.

Internet business, how to build an e-commerce site

Often in this blog we talked about how to make money online, how to optimize a website, or a blog, how to get traffic, about scams and honest opportunities; now it’s time to learn something about how to open an electronic commerce site without too much work. Why e-commerce? I’m sure that you already know that people buy online a lot, a lot more than I thought three years ago. So, if you have something to sell and don’t want to invest a big amount of money to open a shop in your city, nothing is better than electronic commerce. E-commerce is still growing year after year.

Key-factors for success in e-commerce:

  1. Valuable and competitive product(s)
  2. Provide a detailed description for every single product. You have to be more explicative of a bored salesman in the shop along a city street.
  3. You need to build a good website with a good graphic. The right choose of colours is the major key, not too bright or too unfriendly. Ii is better to present each product with a photo.
  4. The discounts are always welcomed by customers.
  5. Reliability and security. See last periods of this post: Online shopping | relationship between scam, buyer and seller
  6. Payment protected. Paypal, HTTPS. Money back warranty for a limited time.
  7. Entrust your consignments to good postal services
  8. Know the law about online shopping and e-commerce websites in your country

E-commerce Script:

osCommerce FREE
CubeCart v3 FREE
Zen Cart FREE
CosmoSoft (fx) F-Cart Paypal Standalone (commercial) license price: $59,60
CS-Cart (commercial) license price: $265

Now, some other tips about the products you’re going to sell. What could you vend through an e-commerce site? Well, think about e-bay or Amazon, what they are if not e-commerce websites?
If you don’t have anything in mind yet, I can show some suggestions:

  1. Sell original items. To owe, or give like a gift, something unique is often the preferred choice by people:
    1. Embroideries, tablecloths, rag dolls, vintage fabrics
    2. Paints made by you or your family, jewellery made by you, trinket
    3. Wooden models, wooden boxes, etc.
  2. Sell clothes (You must have the rights to sell)
  3. Sell Books (You must have the rights to sell)
  4. Sell Personalized Item. T-Shirts, caps, key rings (you have to have professional machines for printing on fabric, like serigraphy)
  5. Sell Internet merchandise (You must have the rights to sell):
    1. Software, hardware
    2. Web Template
    3. Script
    4. E-books
  6. Etcetera, etcetera.

At last, there is no need to be an internet expert to run an e-commerce site and there is no need to spend a lot of money to find a good host: E-commerce hosting (Hostmonster and some others in the list have Simple Script, it will install and update CubeCart, ZenCart, OSCommerce automatically).

What happens if you post the same article, that was previous posted in your blog, on one, or all, of these services? It will engendered what might be termed a conflict of interest, because this article will be considered like duplicate content by the most famous search engine.

How to avoid this? Yes, just what you’re thinking, the best thing to do is write different articles for each one of the service mentioned, with the same infos and links but changing the periods and some words.

How to do it? If you don’t want to write down, one by one, the articles there is another solution, automatic speech recognition softwares for dictation:

IBM ViaVoice – price: from $30 (standard) to $200 (Pro)
e-Speaking – price: $14

Otherwise, you can buy original articles at constant-content.com for example - see Constant Content: where to sell your articles, photos and video online.

Constant-Content is the place to purchase unique, original content. Browse through the large archives of articles that authors have listed for sale, request content for your project and liaise with new writers
– then add your links and post it, severals are really cheap.

How to optimize your new Wordpress blog

Wordpress is a great free platform for bloggers but can’t be left as it is just after installation. It needed to do some SEO adjusting.

  • Don’t leave your post links like this: http://yourblogdomain/?p=152
    Settings --> Permalinks --> Custom Structure, add:
    /%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%.html

  • Post title, it’s better to place the title of your post before the blog’s title, or even better if it is showed just the post title: in your template header.php, delete whatever there is between <title></title> and add: 


  • <?php

    if ($paged!=0) {

    echo "Pagina ".$paged." - ";

    }

    if ( is_single() || is_page() ) { // single pages are the most visited; => top IF

    $post_custom = get_post_custom($post->ID);

    $custom_desc_value = $post_custom["title"][0];

    if($custom_desc_value) {

    echo $custom_desc_value;

    } else {

    wp_title('');

    }

    }

    else {

    if (is_home()) { bloginfo('name'); }

    else {

    if ( function_exists("is_tag") && is_tag()) {

    if (function_exists('single_tag_title')) single_tag_title();

    } else {

    wp_title('');

    }

    }

    }

    ?>



  • Add this canonical plugin to prevent duplicate content: Canonical URL's for WordPress (duplicate content is penalized by Google)

Bing.com, new search engine by Microsoft

Bing, already with millions of pages indexed, the new search engine by Windows Live, created to replace the old Live Search, has a very simple interface like Google, with the difference of a background image that is randomly changed.

Keywords like "make money", "make money online" and "make money business" have millions of results, although in different positions, you will find the same sites on the first pages just like in Google.com

Bing is still in beta version, waiting for the definitive version, Microsoft says that in the coming months will ensure an improved service. According to the reports, Bing, in just few hours after its launch, May 31, reached 6% in the global market and on June 1st Bing handed the 6.35% of all searches made in the world.

Bing gives the impression of becoming a powerful rival to Google and Yahoo!.

  • Good and informative content
    • If you write a unique article, there is a strong possibility to see your page above thousands of look alike pages.
  • Simplicity of navigation [not too many ads banners, advertises, and pop-ups]
  • Answers to the questions that they have in mind when they choose to type some keyword in a search engine like Google
    • If you title a page: “How to make money with private entrepreneurship”, don’t write a good 5000 words article about how to make money in general but focus on the specific topic “private entrepreneurship”, in order to satisfy the visitors that will come on your page with that keyword.
  • To say their opinion about anything [polls, comments, forum posts]
  • To find a page with the language appropriate to its own expectations. This can be assessed according to the visitors who are expected to read it, if children, adults, technicians, experts, etc.
