Surgery Today

noreply@blogger.com (Demonstoned) — Sat, 24 Sep 2011 00:02:00 +0000

Well I just woke up after having back surgery . Everything has gone well I guess. Still on a lot of pain but enjoying the magic button that delivers some pain relief. Mostly I am drifting in and out of consciousness and experiencing many vivid dreams. I have been having out of body episodes as well. Anyway at this point everything seems to be ok.

I have Been Blown Away by an Awesome Website

noreply@blogger.com (Demonstoned) — Thu, 17 Feb 2011 06:30:00 +0000

After several years of searching, trying and testing. I have finely found a website training camp that actually DOES what it promises and that is to help me build massive traffic and make money on the internet!

It doesnt happen often but I have been totally blown away by a website I happen to stumble across.

Income Rush

So I came across this site on Saturday, actually I think I found it from a mailing list newsletter I must have joined, anyway it was offering free traffic and income training and I got curios and clicked the link in the email, at the time I just happened to stumble into a live training session. Well suffice is to say that I was completely blown away by how many people were there at the same time and how many members this site has. The fact that there is a real live person on the site at all times, I mean 24/7 is awesome, I have never seen anything quite so member and community orientated as this place. Anyway I was so blown away I joined as a paid member and have been taking the Bootcamp training where I have continued to be absoluteley blown away.
If your at all interested in generating MASSIVE and I do mean MASSIVE traffic and earning money online then you have just got to check this site out.

I've been investigating money making stuff online for YEARS and nothing has ever gotten me so excited as this site. After I started the bootcamp training I got imediate results, in the first few hours, I mean Holy S*%& Man!
traffic on the first day, I got leads loaded into safelists which I then sent messages too straight away and I got real visitors within hours of basic setup and I got real people under me in the downline system because if you follow this Bootcamp Training you cannot fail to get results.

I am just so awestruck by this course and everything that it offers.

You can join it as a free associate member and come back and attend the next live webcast on Saturday..
I totally recommend that you do! You won't be disapointed ...
I just can't stress enough how much I am loving this site, it doesn't happen often that I feel so strongly about something but this really is life changing stuff!
Go click the link and join for free, follow the instructions and you will see what I mean, I gaurantee it!

Ebay EPN Affiliates - Must Read Article on Squidoo

noreply@blogger.com (Demonstoned) — Wed, 05 Jan 2011 04:48:00 +0000

This is an important article for anyone using ebays partner program.
Give it up before they steal your commissions and ban your account.
EBAY have lost their minds and are loosing users in droves because of their stupidity.
I was banned simply for using their supplied affiliate RSS feed for the term "games" and burning it with feedburner which then sent tweets out. Social networking is the way of the future and ebay doesnt get it, they consider it low quality and just close your account keeping all and any commissions you have owed to you. Its wrong and its a scam.
IF your an ebay affiliate you MUST click this link and read the info because you could be next!

Gameznet Revamp Underway!

noreply@blogger.com (Demonstoned) — Mon, 30 Aug 2010 09:19:00 +0000

Today I am announcing that the Gameznet websites are all undergoing a total rebuild. At present I don't have an estimate on how long till completion since it is a rather large job but the sections will continue to grow live.
This change is part of a total rebuild occuring across the Gameznet network as I move everything to the wordpress platform because managing the sites was impossibly cumbersome and time consuming leaving many holes and incomplete parts which the wordpress platform will solve and also offer many community based features that were not possible to build into the websites myself.

So this is going to be an interesting venture but should enable each site to be much more community orientated and social. The goal is to make each site a content rich portal that will self evolve as visitors contribute and shape the very course and direction that the sites take.

There are a lot of great features coming to each site especially the Gameznet Special Interest Portals so bookmark those special interests which you also share an interest in.

As the sites develop there will be invitations for contributors to become authors where they can write articles and contribute to the content of a given site or special interest and benefit from the new advertising revenue share programs integrated into each site. This will allow contributors to actually be paid for the work that they contribute to portals. Today I am excited about this new phase as I see somthing extremely plausible and possible that should not take too long to implement.

Miracle Traffic Bot Review

noreply@blogger.com (Demonstoned) — Fri, 20 Aug 2010 18:39:00 +0000

Demonstoned Reviews

Miracle Traffic Bot

MiracleTraffic Bot is a one click SEO and traffic automation software created
by Internet Marketer Paul Ponna and his team. The software submits your
videos, articles and websites to dozens of article directories, socialbookmarketing sites, and video submission sites like youtube and metacafe. With the unique combination of simplicity of use and speed of submission, the software makes getting top rankings on search engines a breeze.

In addition, Miracle Traffic Bot is completely white-hat. This allows the software to perform very fast in the background and get you long-term results that last.
I got the software after trying several trial products that do the same or similar thing but found them all way too expensive and many of them needed a degree to drive. Miracle Traffic Bot is easy to drive and I cant beleive the low price of just $77.00, thats the most awsome part about it.

The software suite also comes with complete step by step video training on not only how to use the software but also trains you on how to get traffic and steps you through exactly how to use it to make money.

The benefits of the software are
three fold:
1) The software gets you top 30 or more rankings on top search engines
such as Google, Yahoo, Bing and others search engines which means your
sites and URL's start getting a lot more traffic.

2) The software also gets your website, blog or affiliate page hundreds
of quality backlinks that not only increases your Google PageRank but also
catapults your website to rank consistantly high for most keywords of your
choice.

3) Miracle Traffic Bot also allows you to spread your message because
the platforms and sites that the software integrates with syndicate their
content to several hundreds of other websites. This ripple effect ensures
that one simple article, video or URL for bookmarking of your sites will
turn into hundreds of one-way backlinks and thousands of visitors to your
website, blog or affiliate page.

Hence, you do not even need your own website or product to get the most
out of the software as once you get the traffic, everything else becomes
easy. You can just use free blogs or directly promote affiliate links.

Verdict: Miracle Traffic
Bot is staying in my arsenal of tools and theres no way I will be seeking
a refund! This is a powerful software suite and what's better is that it
is the only software of its kind that I have found which sells for just
a one-time fee which makes it a must for every online marketer to have
it in their marketing efforts. The thing you just cant go past is the price,
its better than many other bots like seonuke which sells for a monthly
fee of over $160 bucks!!

Miracle Traffic Bot is only a one time fee of $77.00

Miracle Traffic Bot Gets my Full Tick Of Approval

There is a great video on the homepage which explains in more detail exactly what Miracle Traffic Bot is and does so I will let you check it out for yourself, I highly recommend this cool tool! Just click the image to check it out.

Amazing Antartic Ice Formations

noreply@blogger.com (Demonstoned) — Fri, 13 Aug 2010 14:44:00 +0000

I got this email sometime around February but only just found it again,
These images are "SO COOL" I thought I just had to share them here.
Please notice what is said, it is the coldest in Antarctica that it has been in decades.

Amazing Striped Icebergs

Icebergs in the Antarctic area sometimes have stripes, formed by layers of snow that react to different conditions.

Blue stripes are often created when a crevice in the ice sheet fills up with melt water and freezes so quickly that no bubbles form.

When an iceberg falls into the sea, a layer of salty seawater can freeze to the underside. If this is rich in algae, it can form a green stripe.

Brown, black and yellow lines are caused by sediment, picked up when the ice sheet grinds downhill towards the sea.

Isn't this amazing??

Antarctica Frozen Wave pic's - Nature is truly amazing!

The water froze the instant the wave broke through the ice.
That's what it is like in Antarctica where it is the coldest weather in decades.
Water freezes the instant it comes in contact with the air.

The temperature of the water is already some degrees below freezing.
Just look at how the wave froze in mid-air!!!

Having the Internet means that we get to see something that we never imagined!
To look at the full size images click any image.

An Incredible Story of Failure You Just Can't Miss

noreply@blogger.com (Demonstoned) — Fri, 06 Aug 2010 16:15:00 +0000

What a Looser or Is He?
Today I would like to share a story with as many people as possible, it is the story of one man who has just turned 40 years old and is broke and living alone because of debt, failure and a mental health issue known as bipolar. Now despite trying his whole life to earn money and be somebody this guy seems to have always ran into problems and brick walls. Unfortunately he was not diagnosed properly with Bipolar until 2008 so he was not armed with the knowledge or tools to cope with his condition which meant a life swinging between wild manic moments where he felt like he was on top of the world and nobody could knock him off to deep dark depressions where all he wanted to do was leave this earth.

Sometimes these cycles would occur rapidly while other times they might last months or even a year or more. But what it meant was during manic times where ideas where flowing fast and the brain was in overdrive risks would be taken sometimes and impulses would be followed like spending money he didn't have and then when the depressions set in the reality and aftermath of those risks would drive him into a state of mind where life simply was not worth living and there seemed no point in even getting out of bed. Suicidal thoughts, explosive rage, loss of friends and family turning their backs on him was the result but some how he always managed to pick himself up and have another try at achieving his goals.

Way back in 1997 he decided that he didn't or couldn't work for other people and he had a strong desire to make his own way in life by running his own business and so he started on a quest to learn about business and find ways to make money that didnt make him a slave to others. At the time he knew instinctively that computers and this internet thing where going to change the world and he desperately wanted to be a part of it so he started learning everything he could by buying magazines on "work at home" topics and "Computers"

So over time he got into mail order marketing and found a Niche providing floppy disks by mail order with shareware on them. It worked and he had his first taste that he could make money doing what he wanted to do and not being told by someone else what to do. He got his first computer shortly thereafter and the first thing he did was pull it apart and lay all the pieces out on the floor and then put it back together, it worked. He then went out and bought individual pieces, a case, a motherboard etc and put them together, it Worked and without any training, schools or courses he taught himself how to build and repair computers. Next was software issues and trouble shooting, fixing viruses and more...

It wasn't long before other people noticed that he had a natural instinct with computers and soon people started bringing their computers to him to be fixed and he was only to happy to help but things were still not right, he wanted to do more, he wanted to help others see how wonderful computers are and teach them and so he went on a business course to try and find out how to get a small business started that revolved around teaching people the joys of computers in a fun way.

Despite having no money he went about and created a detailed business plan and went out to government and welfare services to see if there was any assistance available to get a new business started but alas there was no help available and just when he was about to give up he got a call from a government officer that had been handed the business plan and wanted to meet to discuss backing the business plan. So excited and full of energy he accepted an offer of $20,000 from this government officer who was retiring to buy into the business and get it going.

Well to cut a long story short the business was launched and things were tough but he fought long and hard putting in hours and getting virtually no sleep for about 2 years to build up the business but disaster struck when just as things were settling in and growth was occurring the "partner" decided it was ready for him to manage and this guy that had done all the work was locked out of the shop.

Again with no money or assets to pay for lawyers he was hung out to dry, there was nothing he could do but watch as his dreams and all the hard work were stolen right out from under him. Destitute and with a new born baby he and his new bride to be were both forced into bankruptcy and now at the age of 40 many years later he has still never fully recovered. Although they tried he and his bride struggled, he desperately wanted to get back into business but had to bring in an income and so went to work for a few ISP's doing internet support and even helped one setup a LAN gaming centre based on the first business but nothing he did could fulfil the desire to work for himself. One day he remembered that they still had a website domain registered for the business which by now had been changed to another name and so he decided to start learning about HTML and building websites. Now this lead to him eventually generating some income and then working from home building and hosting websites while also doing some PC tech. But after a while it was obvious that the spark wasn't there, the trust in others was gone and with his unexplained manic/depressive swings he just didn't want to deal with clients who never seemed to want to part with money when it came time to pay for services and so it was back out into the workforce in order to try and feed clothe and keep a roof over the head of him his girl and their 2 kids. time went on and eventually the bipolar started manifesting in ways that made it impossible for him to predict his own behavior and several violent outbursts at home soon put an end to his relationship but did lead to getting diagnosed with bipolar in 2008.

Now in 2010 he is working part time in a pet shop and living alone, in debt and struggling just to pay the rent but still trying to make money online and not succeeding but he has decided he cant let it go, he has to dig deep and get serious about it.
To really try and put his knowledge and skills into it and not let the bipolar or past life experiences get in the way any longer.

This story I have just told is a true story, its a painful story and unfortunately it is MY STORY...

So now it comes the time to let you know that this is it , this is the way that I am trying to rectify my situation, by coming clean, by being honest, by accepting the past, my condition and not being afraid to ask for help if I need it (and I do need it)

So my first post here is let people know about my story and hopefully find some others who can empathise.

I like to write, I write all the time, its what I do and so at the moment I am researching various topics to write about while also checking out places to submit my articles and posts too which is why I am here at #site# where I hope to find more information that will help me achieve my goals and learn by doing while also discovering mentors to follow and like minded people to befriend and hopefully finnaly find a way to make some money.

My goals as a writer are to learn and grow and to share what I discover so that I can become a bit of an authority on those topics and maybe even help a few people by sharing some of what I have learn 't.
I am also hoping to gain a foothold at sites like #site# with a view to writing online as a full time career and so I would appreciate any feedback that anyone would like to share with me about my writing and my websites.

In addition to posting articles online I have still got that original website I learnt on and a couple more which I am desperately trying to get going and hopefully earn some income streams from with advertising and affiliate programs but my main focus has to be on writing and expressing myself and providing information that people actually want to and enjoy reading.
My articles and writing will cover a wide variety of topics but one that I am particularly passionate about is learning how to make money online and for this I have created a website at http://gameznet.biz/ which is purely focused around making money online and is basically a place where I can keep tabs on my own ideas, techniques, tools and services that I am either using or reviewing that can assist me to make money on the internet, I also have a wordpress blog in a sub domain of that site which is http://blog.gameznet.biz/ and that is where I will be blogging about what I learn and discover about making money online. I am new to wordpress and still setting the blog up but so far I am very impressed with what can be done with it but it seems the more I learn, the more there is to learn.

My family and friends all think I am crazy to still be trying to work for myself or make money on the internet and wish that I would just get a full time "real job" but In my mind I can see that there is a very valid and real opportunity to work from home on the internet doing something that I love but the task at hand for now is pure learning. The unfortunate thing is that I have spent years trying and so far done nothing but get further and further into debt but still I keep on trying. I know that there are many others out there like me who just want to get out of the rat race and be self reliant and live life for life's sake and not just be a slave to a boss, the bank and the tax man. So with a lot of determination and effort I will be doing my best to achieve my goals by continuing to write and submitting articles and hopefully building a reputation as an honest, entertaining and interesting writer or I will die trying, fighting until my last breath.

My ultimate goal is to have money and be happy, what is so bad about that anyway?
I just want to have a full time career established, to help others to do the same and to do this I realise that I need to have some help on the way and so I would appreciate any feedback that anyone would like to share with me.

My articles and writing will cover quite a wide variety of topics both personal and professional points of view but one topic that I am particularly passionate about is learning how to make money online. Since I do suffer from a mental health disorder (bipolar) which does get in the way and affect me on a daily basis I have to work harder than others who might have the same goals but with learning (about the disorder) comes understanding and so I guess I will be writing articles about my experiences with bipolar and posting them here and there too. I have a site which was originally a gaming site made with php nuke which I intend to be dedicated to Bipolar and hope that it will help me and others to better understand how to live with and manage it. That site is http://gameznet.org/ and I welcome anyone that either has bipolar or knows somebody with bipolar to come and join the site and help me build it into a community.

One of my other passions that I intend to write and blog about is computer games and for that I have a website which was my first ever set up after a failed business of the same name located at http://gameznet..com.au/, at the moment it is just a free online games site but I hope to turn the blog section of it into a game review site and build a community to help me run it. the blog is at http://blog.gameznet.com.au/ and I hope that people will take an interest and come to visit my gaming site and get involved but time will tell.

Another website which I just moved from one server to a different host has gotten messed up in the process but basically it is a "Special Interest Portal" with over 30 different special interests ranging from Aliens to Dolphins, Big Boys Toys to Kids Stuff, Web for Women to dinosaurs and dragons plus all the rest. Originally I had this site loaded at my original domain (gameznet.com.au) and at one time I had it in the top 10,000 sites worldwide with many sections coming up in several TOP positions including Number one in Google and other major search engines but then my bipolar kicked in several times and it got all messed up as I started chopping and changing it manically and as a result I lost search engine positions and a lot of traffic, getting google slapped didn't help either and then I had several server issues and hosting moves that destroyed what I had built up so everything went haywire and I took it in a different direction but it just kind of imploded. Unfortunately at the time when I had it at its peak I did not really know anything about generating incomes with a website and so it was not monitised but rather completely content based but now I know that you can give great content and monitise your site to actually have it generate an income instead of just costing you in time and hosting fees so the new home of the "Gameznet Special Interest Portal" is http://gameznet.net/

I know those sites are all messed up at the moment with many unfinished or missing pages etc but the basic ideas are there and I suppose it is a simple case of doing too much at once but my bipolar means that ideas flow fast and furious and I often find I have 10-20 web pages open and 10 or more so pages open in dreamweaver as I flick from one thing to another. I have often wished I had a team with me to work with, a room full of computers and people who could understand and see where I wanted to go to help me stay focused and on track but alas I am on my own. It's no way to build successful websites but its what I do, its bad I know but at the same time I just cannot quit, there is a lot of great information and ideas on those sites, that I am sure of and with some help, support and feedback I can get my ideas and goals completed and I am sure that there are others out there that would love to help out, get involved, help me clean up the sites and get them finished and functioning so if your interested or know someone who might be I would love to hear from you :)
All you have to do is investigate the site that interests you most and contact me letting me know you would like to get involved. If we can get any of those sites up and running properly and earning incomes I am more than willing to share any income they generate!

Anyway that's all I have to say at the moment but I would love to get some feedback from anyone and the best way for me to get that would be either my Gameznet twitter or facebook pages.
to find them just do a search for username: gameznet at those sites or check out the first URL above to find my accounts and then make a friend request or follow me to drop me a line there. facebook is the best one I will see every message but my twitter account gets a tonne of spam. I will however add ANYONE that wants to be friends or followback anyone on twitter that follows me..

One last thing, if anyone is interested in seeing some of the background of Gameznet in more detail, including videos and pictures of the shop and finding out more information on the person behind it check out the following URL http://gameznet.com.au/history/about.html there you will find out where all this "gameznet" stuff came from, get some personal history which even includes a section of my Journal from the period of time when I ran a LAN gaming and Computer Learning Centre called "Gameznet" which went horribly wrong when my business partner decided to do me over and take what I had built for himself. You will also see that everything in this article is true.

At the end of the day some people might see me posting this out as desperate and I guess it is. I may be having another bipolar manic moment right now but I feel better when I am trying than I do when I ignore my passions.

Please feel free to share and distribute this story, in fact you'd be helping me out :)

Todays Rant! - Are There Any Honest Money Makers Out There Helping Their Customers to Succeed?

noreply@blogger.com (Demonstoned) — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 21:37:00 +0000

Today I really am going to do a rant, this rant is about clickbank product vendors that have gotten themselves into a routine of ripping people off because they have over learnt the whole "internet marketing" thing and stopped caring about who they are selling too.

Last month I purchased another "Clickbank Money Making Program" like many others this one was about using clickbank, google adwords and other affiliate programs to make big money online in the shortest time possible. It promised the world, all the tools, all the support, niche websites, keyword campaigns that work, almost everything done for you so you dont have to do it all alone etc etc the whole works.

I won't say exactly what the program was but it is a very popular clickbank product and the vendor is a very well known "super affiliate" who is well known and respected in the world of Internet Marketing. Basically it was one of those programs with a great sales pitch, good copy, nice graphics, exciting (but long) introduction videos "showing you the money" and basically he says and does all the right things to get you excited and sucked into the story then you part with your money and you download your purchase which starts you on your way, gives you a bunch of reading, study material more videos access to an exclusive members area with tools and training videos etc which all serves to keep you quite busy for some time and meanwhile you receive a few automated emails to help you get going and keep you interested.

Then after a few weeks the seemingly helpful emails slow down and start morphing into promotional emails telling you about new opportunities to "get in on the ground level" "special offer just for our customers" you have to see this NEW information or Upgrade your already upgraded account for even more benefits. It all turns into upselling of more products even though the product I purchased had already cost me $81au and was a recurring monthly $81au. For that kind of money I really did expect a super performing program. Never mind that $81au per month could pay most of an average household utility bill or even give you some luxury in life like cable tv, a great meal every month or a weekend away every year, In my case it would be better off spent on my monthly credit card bill. It is decent money and so one would expect a very decent product yet I was only to be disappointed yet again.

All I can say is Thank God for Clickbank's refund and cancellation policies!

Which makes me wonder what Clickbank Vendors are thinking when they risk loosing paying customers by over doing the "upselling" and not staying focused on giving their customers exactly what they promised in their initial sales pitch and what the customer must obviously be expecting. How can a business run like that? It certainly would not last long in brick and mortar form.

If the product delivered I would happily hand over my cash, if the support was good I would keep on at it and if the focus was on getting me where I wanted to go instead of making money out of me for other people I would happily pay a monthly fee of $81!

You Need A Budget (YNAB) - Personal Finance Software

So just where are the good programs? the ones that deliver exactly what they promise!

It seems they don't exist because nearly every sales site is the same, buy the product and get ALL THESE BONUSES, then after sales support turns into upsell's up the wahoo...

It all begins when you try and leave the sales page and a popup tells you "wait" don't go we will give you a "One Time Discount if you Join Us" click cancel to continue.....

You can really start getting suss if you do go ahead and get to the checkout, submit your payment and the first thing that happens is an upsell "pop up" right there and then, Internet marketers have the opinion they should strike while the iron is hot and the customer is in a buying mood but as a customer I feel cheated as soon as I see the first Upsell, Hell let me complete the sale get the product, use the product and give me time to build confidence before you start trying to max out my credit card and send me into debt.
These upsells might as well be honest and say something like:
" Hey Sucker your already giving me your money, you mustn' like money very much but I do so how about giving me some more, cmon I really want it!!"

If the product was good enough they should just ask the full price that they want for it up front, (like a quality shop bought software/book/dvd seriese does). It should give you a manual that is not laced with affiliate links and upsell's (like a quality shop bought software/book/dvd seriese does). It should give you good, no GREAT support by email, website, phone (like a quality shop bought software/book/dvd seriese does) It should give you access to updates and upgrades. (like a quality shop bought software/book/dvd seriese does) and it should do exactly what any advertising or promotional material says it will do. (like a quality shop bought software/book/dvd seriese does)!

God only knows that I don't want anything else to distract me when I get a new piece of software, training course, video series or software application, I don't want any useless bonus ebooks and crap that wastes my time from getting on with the money making part. I definitely don't want upsell after upsell or recommendations of "another great product you have to get now"

Surely there are some programs out there that aren't just a set of instructions with a load of "bonus ebooks", courses or misleading "automated systems" simply designed to get "Me" the buyer to fork some cash over get me onto a list and upsell me on more and more similar products or useless upgrades. I need to find something that is exactly what it says it is and not a set of instructions, websites applications, online videos and ebooks which after a week, several or in some cases months or more of solid reading, watching videos, following instructions, learning how to use an application and working hard you end up finding that all you have is a sore head, broken heart and a lower bank account.
I am willing to do the work and spend the money to get myself setup for making a living online but I am running out of cash, time and patience. What really erks me the most is that I buy into something that says "this is it, all you will ever need" and I start on their program. Initially the automated emails are helpful and I download the product print out all ebooks and instructions and follow what I am told to do meticulously but much of it is stuff I have already read somewhere else, probably another product the vendor put out last year or something It's convoluted and confusing, layered carefully with "hypnotic marketing" techniques to keep you engaged and stuck there, long videos that ultimately don't give you anything "solid" and still I persist because I want to believe, I want to trust and I want to make money. Then after a short while the program owners start sending information on the "next big thing" or some amazing story about somebody else usually coming up from nowhere and now they are no longer encouraging me and helping me with the product I purchased but telling me to go spend more money on some "other program"
When a scenario like the above happens it tells me 3 things

1) the product I bought doesn't work or can't deliver on its own merit because they have to promote "other programs" (could you imagine buying a new ford motor car and after a month of having it they started sending you information about another model you should "get in on now" or even worse their full endorsement on the latest toyota which if you buy through them they will give you a bonus ) it just doesn't make sense.

2) they are either the creator or affiliates of this "other program"

3) Get Out Now - Their not interested in helping, they have you running around splashing out cash, jumping on more lists and rubbing their hands with glee as you and others like you pop about visiting their sites and generating traffic for their stats pages. By then you know all they want is you spending more cash and visiting their emailed links!

Its so disheartening, If I was not a diagnosed bipolar sufferer I would have given it up years ago but one of the symptoms of bipolar is impulsiveness and not being able to let go of things once you start them and as a result I have spent easily over $10,000 on what is best described as crap over the past 8-10 years and I am still broke. My friends and family who know of my internet money making activities think its crazy and laughable that I believe you must be able to make money online and use me as an example of why not to even try it!

Sure I have had some wins with high traffic websites, PPC, affiliate programs, adsense sites etc but the idea is to get back more free time and make money in a way that is easier and more desirable than working nine to five for someone else and so it goes that most money making programs are not so much scams but misleading, confusing and you find that one page always leads to another, one purchase always leads to another and so on you go around on the not so merry go round.

All I want is to find one single program that actually works, doing exactly what it promises to do, It is 2010 for goodness sake and we have high speed broadband internet, super powerful computers and a good programmer who knows his stuff can achieve almost anything imaginable when put to the task so put a bunch of them in a room together and I can see in my minds eye what they should be able to do. I know if I had a room full of computer programmers at my disposal there to build my idea of the perfect money making system I could get it done, I could develop a real system that does what it says and it would work exactly like this - "customer buys product-recurring billing - customer enters details - software installs itself - customer earns money.

If the customer invests more their returns are higher and so it grows.

No refunds ever because the customer cannot stuff it up or falter due to inaction etc. it earns more than the cost, it is real software that works!

I may be a nobody, I may be a bipolar, I may be broke but I do know computers and I know that this can be done so surely there has to be at least one real program out there that does what it is supposed to do. If I cannot find it am I destined to get it developed for myself? I could outsource such a program on elance or vWorker or I could build a business plan and seek investments via venture capitalist's

Yeah if I had the time and money I could do that but really I just want a program that already around, one that I can buy - I set it up - it makes money - end of story. or am I realistically expecting the impossible, am I the only one that can see this program in my minds eye? is it simply too much to ask?

Affiliate marketing with NO money

noreply@blogger.com (Demonstoned) — Tue, 23 Oct 2007 02:16:00 +0000

Maybe the single greatest part about affiliate marketing is the incredibly low initial investment you need to start earning money for yourself. All you really need is a website. That’s it. There are so many FREE programs out there that will walk you though basic web design, even if you know nothing about it, you can be up and running in the span on a day. All that’s left at this point is finding an affiliate marketing program to subscribe to.

Here are a few tips about starting up your affiliate marketing campaign today!

• There are tens of thousands of affiliate marketing programs you can subscribe to. The list is essentially limitless. An important piece of advice, though, is that if an affiliate marketing program wants you to pay money to sign up, you might want to think twice. Unless the initial investment is very small, there are many other choices that you could make. You see, almost all affiliate marketing programs are FREE! That’s right, you read that right. FREE! And not only that, but some of the big time programs will even train you and give you tips on the right keywords to put on your webpage so random web surfers will find you, click on your link, buy a product and earn you money! Unless you really want to be part of an affiliate marketing program that charges money, don’t do it. There are thousands that are free.

• Don’t use a low-quality internet provider. This can be a tough choice for those looking at keeping their costs at zero or as close to zero as possible. But your local full Internet Service Provider is going to do a better job of hosting your new money making website then some free site that crashes all the time. Your new web site is a money-making machine for you, don’t trust it to a company that isn’t going to do everything they can to make sure it’s up and running 24/7. You probably pay for an internet connection in your home already, and with your basic Internet account, you get web space. Use it and rest easy knowing that your website is in good hands.

As you can see, there are a few ins and outs to affiliate marketing that everyone needs to know. But the key here is the fact that you can earn money with almost no work involved. Just make a website, write some snappy content and set up your links and then sit back, relax and count your money.

All the best

3 Reasons Why Adsense Is Essential For Content Sites

noreply@blogger.com (Demonstoned) — Mon, 15 Oct 2007 15:22:00 +0000

To know why Adsense is essential for your content sites is to know first how this works.

The concept is really simple, if you think about it. The publisher or the webmaster inserts a java script into a certain website. Each time the page is accessed, the java script will pull advertisements from the Adsense program. The ads that are targeted should therefore be related to the content that is contained on the web page serving the ad. If a visitor clicks on an advertisement, the webmaster serving the ad earns a portion of the money that the advertiser is paying the search engine for the click.

The search engine is the one handling all the tracking and payments, providing an easy way for webmasters to display content-sensitive and targeted ads without having the hassle to solicit advertisers, collect funds, monitor the clicks and statistics which could be a time-consuming task in itself. It seems that there is never a shortage of advertisers in the program from which the search engine pulls the Adsense ads. Also webmasters are less concerned by the lack of information search engines are providing and are more focused in making cash from these search engines.

The first reason why Adsense is essential for content sites is because it already has come a long way in understanding the needs of publishers and webmasters. Together with its continuous progression is the appearance of more advanced system that allows full ad customization. Webmasters are given the chance to choose from many different types of text ad formats to better complement their website and fit their webpage layout.

The different formatting enables the site owners the possibility of more click through from visitors who may or may not be aware of what they are clicking on. It can also appeal to the people visiting thus make them take that next step of looking up what it is all about. This way the people behind the Adsense will get their content read and making profit in the process.

The second reason is the ability of the Adsense publishers to track not only how their sites are progressing but also the earnings based on the webmaster-defined channels. The recent improvements in the search engines gives webmasters the capability to monitor how their ads are performing using customizable reports that has the capacity to detail page impressions, clicks and click-through rates. Webmasters and publishers can now track specific ad formats, colors and pages within a website. Trends are also easily spotted.

With the real-time reporting at hand, the effectiveness of the changes made will be assessed quickly. There would be time to sort out the contents that people are making the most clicks on. The ever-changing demands would be met while generating cash for the webmasters and publishers. The more flexible tools are also allowing webmasters to group web pages by URL, domain, ad type or category, which will provide them some accurate insight on which pages, ads and domains are performing best.

The last and final reason is that the advertisers have realized the benefits associated having their ads served on targeted websites. Thus increasing the possibility that a prospective web surfer will have an interest in their product and services. All because of the content and its constant maintenance. As opposed to those who are no using Adsense in their sites, they are given the option of having other people do their content for them, giving them the benefit of having successful and money-generating web sites.

Adsense is all about targeted content, the more targeted your content is, the more target the search engines ads will be. There are some web masters and publishers who are focused more on their site contents and how best to maintain them rather than the cash that the ads will generate for them. This is the part where the effectiveness is working its best.

There was a time when people were not yet aware of the money to be achieved from advertisements. The cash generated only came into existence when the webmasters and publishers realized how they can make Adsense be that generator. In those days, the content were the most important factors that is taken quite seriously. It still is. With the allure of money, of course.
