Content is the base of making money online. You need quality content to build your websites, you can use content to make money directly through revenue-sharing content pages like Squidoo, InfoBarrel, Hubpages or Associated Content and then there is the huge amount of content you need to article marketing in order to create backlinks to your sites and make sure you generate enough traffic to your site.

So how much time do you spend researching and writing content?

If it is anything like me, I can only imagine your desire to speed up the researching and writing process because to be honest, you are just human and hey, everybody needs a hand every now and then, right?!

You just get to the point where you find that just spinning articles doesn´t work the way you planned, unless you do it in a huge volume and at times your morals just jump in and you are tired of producing low quality sites and articles anyways. Or you just don´t reach your daily targets in order to produce the traffic you need to make sales or earn those clicks to create a decent income or beyond.

I myself have used different programs and types of software, lazy git that I am at times, but none of them really stood up to the test of time, or better said, they didn´t bring in the return on investment I was expecting, so I never felt the need to share any of them on this site.

However, I think I now have found a superb tool to research and write content, creating excellent articles within a matter of minutes… To be exact 15 minutes when I first started (from research to ending up with a new article) to well under 10 minutes per article (and I am talking about 800 words articles here, the shorter ones take even less!)

See, I don´t just create websites on topics that I know very well but whenever I find a keyword worth to persue I might end up writing on a topic I hadn´t even heard of before, so quite some time was going into researching the topic and coming up with good information. A lot of time spent before even actually starting to write the articles needed to set up a niche website and write even more articles for article marketing and link building efforts.

All in all it just became overwhelming and hey, did I already tell you I am a lazy git at times?

In comes the Instant Article Wizard and all of a sudden my life has changed. Really changed I mean, because I have been able to cut the niche topic research way down to almost nothing, but yet I can write and create many different articles to use for all sorts of money making ventures. And instead of spending my days researching and writing, I can actually focus a lot more time on the linkbuilding process in order to generate more organic targetted traffic from search engines.

So what does the Instant Article Wizard do?

Basically what it does is remove the whole content research on automization, so no more time spending doing research for the articles you want to write. You just put in the keywords you want to target and content is pulled in from all different sites availabe. Then you start picking out the sentences you find most appropriate for the article you have in mind, put them together and with a few clicks you put them in the right order, complete with intro, subsubjects and a neat conclusion and with another click you can immediately see your new article and it´s wordcount.

In order to make sure your copy of the article is 100% unique you give it a quick edit, making the sentences flow even better and you have a top notch article your english teacher would be proud of! Now, saying English here, but the Instant Article Wizard is actually able to not only create content in English, but also in German, Spanish, French, Portuguese and Italian, so if you know any of these languages you will be well ahead of the game in creating website content ready to be read all over the world.

To me that was just icing on the cake, seeing I actually have quite a good knowledge of other languages but actually writing content in Spanish suitable to create money making websites was just too much of a drag, no more limits for me though!

Have a look at the video to see just how easy it is to use the IAW

Where to use the Instant Article Wizard content?

Just to give you an idea of the potential of this program, a basic 400 word article can be created in 8 minutes and under. So you could build a 5 post niche website in under an hour and even have some spare time to submit a few articles to ezinearticles to start promotion! Plus you could of course use your unique content for revenue sharing websites that actually pay you for publishing your content on their site, giving you a share in their adsense revenue, you could create content for others on a freelance base, or sell your article in PLR content packs on IM forums.

Those are just a few ideas out of the top of my head, but really, if you are able to create a lot of content on a daily base you can easily say your dayjob good bye in a matter of months or even weeks if you pull hard at it.
They say Content is King but with the Instant Article Wizard, content isn´t only king, Content is Cash!

With the Instant Article Wizard your days of crunching down on writing articles are over, as well are the days of spending big bucks on having others create content for you!

Have a look at the video to see just how easy it is to use the IAW and start creating cash pulling content!

Do you have what it takes to become successful?

All too frequently people turn to the net in the hopes of being able to create an income online, either because they aren´t earning enough and want to make a little extra, because they don´t like their job and are looking for something else or maybe because they are unemployed and desperately need to make money.

The internet is fast … in everything …

Technologies changes fast… new inventions are popping up every day and the same seems to go for the next best answer to internet riches. If you have spent even a little bit of time looking for ways to make money online, I am sure you have already run into hundreds of pages that make you believe you can become rich without working.

No matter how fast internet is, one thing will never change

In order to make money online, you will need to work. There is no such thing as “getting rich online fast” even though many many marketers are selling their products wanting you to believe there is actually a “secret to making money online”.

Why do they want YOU to believe it is possible becoming rich without working?? Because THEY want YOU to buy THEIR product so that THEY can become richer!

That is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, sad as it is!

Having identified the problem, the core belief that you can become rich online without lifting a finger and have cheques in your mail every day is one part. There is however another part to the problem…

YOU!

Do YOU really believe that you can just become an internet success, making thousands of dollars a day, without having to do the hard work?? I mean… if that were true, weren´t we ALL rich by now?

Think about that, please… think about it!!

Having said that… now that you are back on earth with both feet…

Do you have what it takes to really become successful?

Are you willing to put in the hard work NOW so that later on down the line you can harvest the fruits of your hard work?

If so, WHAT is holding you back?

You see, I have thought long and hard about that question, especially relating to myself, what is holding me back to become an internet success. And the answer for me personally was “not having a real plan and being able to stick to it”.

That was the case untill I ran across the One Week Marketing Plan. This program is what has changed my life and is still changing it in terms of getting more productive (ie, making more websites, building more traffic and making more sales) and giving me the exact guide, step by step on how to do it.

Making money online really isn´t rocket science. I can sincerely say that almost any system will work, as long as YOU are willing to work. So no more detours, buying the next best promise to internet riches, no more surfing around all day trying to find answer, but actually working on a proven program that WILL make you money.

And the harder you work right NOW, the more money it will be making and continue to be making down the line.

The One Week Marketing Plan will give you the specific plan to do just that. It teaches you how to set up an affiliate project, how to create webcontent for it that generates traffic, how to find keywords that will make you succeed.

What do you get with the One Week Marketing Plan?

The Plan consists of an easy to understand guide, no hype there, just sincere and straight forward information and little insider tricks from a person who is already making thousands of dollars a day, a year from first starting to work the way described in the guide.

A very usefull checklist so that you can see exactly where you are, what to do next and how to do it, to make sure you don´t forget one single step.

A great transcript of a real conversation (136 pages) between the writer of One Week Marketing plan and one of her students. You can see exactly how he got to make his first sale the first week of his first campaign and how he made another 2 only days after that!

A mindmap giving you a very specific idea on how to grow your business (yes, I said business… we are talking business here, right?!?! ) step by step.

A One Week Marketing Plan, sort of a short list of all the actions you need to take.

Now if that isn´t a complete package, I don´t know what is. And if YOU aren´t able to build a consistent stream of money with the help of this package, it is because you weren´t looking to really make money!

So if you are really interested in making money online, and haven´t been able to do so far, check out the One Week Marketing Plan, it will probably be the best investment you ever make in YOUR FUTURE!

ps, if you decide to get the plan because of this post, please contact me after purchasing and I will send you a keyword research sheet that I am using myself when doing my keyword research. It comes with full explanation on how to find out which keywords to target in order to build traffic to your affiliate sites in low competition searched keywords.

Ever since I started affiliate marketing I have been using php redirecting to mask my affiliate links and make them look “prettier”. Once you learn this little trick it is really easy to and up until a few months ago I was really satisfied using this method to add affiliate links to my websites and blogs.

Thing is that sometime you have already got a lot of information on your website when you find a good affiliate product that could work well on your site.

But do you really want to go back and edit all those posts and articles to make sure your affiliate link is added?

The solution to this problem is both simple and genious. It is called the Ninja Affiliate. The Ninja Affiliate is a wordpress plugin (yeah…. love those plugins!) … that is easy to install.

Once activated you can add your affiliate link in one central place (go to “manage” in your dashboard and then click on the Ninja Affiliate). Indicate which are the trigger words and each time that specific word (or small sentence) shows up on your blog, it is automatically turned into a live link to your affiliate product.

Another superb feature of the Ninja Affiliate plugin is that it will automatically cloak your affiliate link so that visitors don´t get to see it.

You also get to see all the click throughs on the links you have put in your blog so that you can keep count and track which product is doing well and which isn´t… Very important if you are looking to make money online.

The Ninja Affiliate will take out the guessing and hard work of making your blog more profitable so check it out!

So apart from a little change in design, preparing this blog for the new year to come, I have also decided to load up some useful plugins.

Now one thing that I noticed and always tried solving was that whenever I would search through this blog and click on the category page, only one post would be shown and if there were more post in one category, I had to go and search for older posts, quite time consuming if you ask me.

I really wanted to offer category pages that would show more options, so my visitors could go over all the posts made in one category. Now, I searched how to do it in Wordpress, but could not find how to adapt my theme manually, besides, I really did not want to bother that much changing a theme manually and then lose that adaptation again, whenever I felt time had come for a new theme update.

I found the Solution in an easy to instal plugin!

The Different Posts Per Page Plugin offers exactly what I was looking for with an easy way to update the number of posts you want to show per page, whether that be the home page or category page, but you can also easily change the number of posts you want to have show up on your search page or tag page.

Now how great is that?

I thought it was really cool, another great free plugin to help you manage your wordpress blog and takes out the pain of having to manually change your theme. So now navigation on this page is made easier, just check it out for yourself and click on any of the “tags” or category pages and instead of just seeing one post, you will actually see all the posts available in once quick overview!

If you have been looking for a way to change the number of posts shown on your different page types, then the Different Posts Per Page plugin is the way to go! With only a few clicks you can define the number of posts on category pages, tag pages and the lot.

Download Different Posts Per Page plugin for free and offer your visitors the same ease of navigation!

But when opening your google analytics account to see how those hundreds and thousands of visitors found your blog in the first place, you realize that the few clicks you actually did get are your own and your mothers. After all you did tell her straight away about your online venture and she just had to take a look at that new blog of yours.

So it is about time to take action and one of the things you can do is submitting your RSS feeds to the uncountable amount of directories available online. Good place to start is submitting them to this list of 101 RSS feed directories, which will ensure you atleast a little bit of buzz.

happy submitting!

Admitting you failed is not something pleasant and you really don’t want to share it with the world.

So what is the one big thing that sets winners and failures apart?

There might be many theories but after a few years online and having gone through some pretty rough times, I think that the one thing that sets the winners apart from the online failures, is the willingness to do what others don’t want to do.

I have come to realize that probably the biggest clue to succeeding online is the ability to work hard and do what it takes to create your own success story. This means many times that you will have to be spending a lot of time writing.

Writing articles, writing website content, writing when building links, making your website descriptions, writing comments, no matter what you will need to be doing a lot of writing.

Many people that turn to Internet marketing as a means to create their independent income source have only little money to start out with. And they will find many resources saying that you don’t need any money to start out with if you are using all the free services available. Free bogging platforms for example will give the opportunity to start creating content and build up an audience you can sell your affiliate products to or make you earn money with advertising as soon as your traffic starts coming in.

Now, in theory this sounds absolutely wonderful and inspired by the great number of success stories I am sure you will get exited about your online venture, only to find out that it really isn’t all that easy. Maybe you don’t even like writing that much or you get discouraged by the slow start up speed many experience.

So you start looking around you for other ways to cash in and you are on your road to failure… you will be drawn into all different programs, different opportunities, reading and buying all sorts of e-books and the lot. You will get into that downward spiral more and more and in the end you just give up.

You did not have what it takes; you did not have what sets winners apart from failures! And no matter how long you search for Money Making Ideas online, if you don´t get to work right now, you won´t ever have a fighting chance to make money online!

One thing you will need to realize even before starting to think about making an income online is that you will have to do the “dirty work” and loads of it. Once you do see some chouse coming in, after having done all the dirty hard labor, you might start thinking of outsourcing the things you don’t like to do, so you can focus on those you do love to do, but until you get to the point where you have some cash to invest, online marketing is a hard tough job.

Have you got what it takes?

We all began this year at GO, and all roads lead to a final rendezvous; the difference is what we’ve done en route. Goals set, actions taken, and results realized determine if you get to call this year a success or not.

September 22nd is an important date as it marks the 100 day countdown of 2008. With that in mind, I have put together a number of questions for you to consider as you progress toward the finish line and call this year a wrap:


1. What specific results have you achieved so far this year?

2. Are you healthier, wealthier, and wiser?

3. Are you winning, losing or just holding ground?

4. What results are you committed to achieve by the end of the year?

5. How have you grown and what have you learned this year?

6. Is there any unfinished business that needs to be tended to in your life?

7. Are you actively pursuing what’s most important on a daily basis?

8. What habits or behaviors do you need to change to ensure better results?

9. What is the key issue that inhibits your ability to perform at your best?

Every day the plot thickens, the cement hardens, and the mystery deepens. You must live to answer and honor these questions, because when it comes to the last 100 days of the year, every day and everything you do counts.

With that in mind, I wanted to share with you an exciting opportunity to finish the year strong—it’s called the 100 Day Finish Strong Challenge!

One thing we all have in common is that we all love a challenge. For some it could be a goal that puts you to the test, an obstacle that says you can’t beat me, a belief system that is begging for a breakthrough, or even a mountain that just dares you to climb it.

Whatever it is, you’re attitude should be BRING IT ON, as there’s nothing quite like a good old fashioned challenge to see what you’re made, to push the boundaries and tests your limits as it is ONLY when we overcome these trials that we get to reap the sweetest rewards.

Gary Ryan Blair, otherwise know as The Goals Guy has put together what I believe to be the most comprehensive approach to goal setting and performance enhancement.

The 100 Day Finish Strong Challenge is a structured 14-week performance improvement program where challengers compete against themselves to achieve a number of challenging goals and finish the year strong.

You and other competitors from around the world will be provided with a performance plan, a disciplined implementation process, daily measurement systems, and a very unique accountably tool along with specific tactics and strategies to attain your goals.

Free Special Report

Gary is offering a powerful special report for free which provides you with 15 Strategies That Guarantee Results. This report in my opinion is worth its weight in gold and I encourage you to get your copy right now.

So what are you waiting for? The clock is ticking and if you want to seriously improve your life and corresponding results, I encourage you to check out the 100 Day Finish Strong Challenge today as it will be one of the smartest decisions you’ll make all year.

I wish you a great home stretch during these last 100 days and encourage you to dream big dreams and take the necessary actions to make them reality.

I have recently been doing some testing with different companies that offer link building services in order to find the one that works best for me and in the process I have come across some companies that really suck.

Instead of offering what they claim on their selling pages, results that I got back after using their services were not worth the money spent to say the least.

I was already getting a little dis-hearted by the thought of having to keep doing all the work myself until I was pointed towards a company that was actually offering high quality link building services for a decent price.

After checking out their website and different packages they offer I decided to give it one more try and I have to say, I am really impressed by the results so far.

The 3 keywords I chose to promote through their services were focussing on a website I created to promote aloeride and not only are they now on the first page of google, they are actually ranking 1st, 2nd and 3rd! That to me was convincing enough to write this post about their services because I know there must be more webmasters around who could benefit of these services.

A small outline of what they offer:

• Manual Directory Submission to high PR directories, with 10 different titles and 10 different descriptions in order to make the submissions look as natural as possible, starting at only $15
• Article Writing Service combined with manual submission to high PR article sites for rates starting as low as $30
• Social Bookmarking Services with different tags and titles starting at only $35 for 125 high ranking bookmarking sites
• Search Engine submission to the most popular search engines, starting at only $29 and offering different packages that will ensure your site will be submitted over a longer period of time, all with detailed reports of submission
• Garantueed Google Indexing with a full refund if magic doesn´t happen
• Linkbaiting and blog review services to generate buzz
• Complete Linkbuilding packages where you get the best of all their offers combined to ensure fast and widespread exposure online

So as you can see they offer a wide variety of possibilities for every pocket but best of all, you actually do get what you pay for and that is high quality linkbuilding, a must for every webmaster these days who wants to be in the big league!

I can honestly say that I fully recommend their service so if you want to find out more please visit their website:

Tired of building links? Fed up with that time consuming, but so important part of internet marketing? Are you still dreaming of wealth and an ever growing internet business, but just can´t find the “umpf” to keep working on it?

Then continue reading because help is on its way!

If you are anything like me, you love automatization too. Recently I discovered there was a way to cut down the time I was spending on social bookmarking sites. Instead of actually having to go to all different sites seperately and add the links I wanted to link, I found a neat little application that would automatically do different runs on both bigger social bookmarking sites and scuttle pages.

Thought that was pretty neat and at times I would just go crazy, doing too many runs at the same time and than after a few days I would focus on something else. Consistency never has been my biggest forte but I do understand just how important it is to keep building links in a consistent manner and above all, not piss off the search engines.

Then AutoSocialPoster came in, taking away all the guess work, consistency problems and even more important, run 100% automatically once set up.

Since it is a plugin for wordpress all you need to do is install it on your wordpress blog, set the settings (you will have to create accounts for all 34 bigger bookmarkingsites, and can even create more than 1 account so your posts will be randomly submitted by different users) but once that is done (should not take more than 30 minutes) you are set!

Every time you publish a post on your blog and have your tags set, AutoSocialPoster will take over the work, creating technorati links and pinging the 34 sites.

So what is so cool about this plugin?

• No more socialbookmarking needed, so you are wasting less time.
• Each post can give you an easy 34 backlinks times the number of tags!
• Randomly use different accounts.
• Steadily build links each time you post, automatically!

Initial investment

is $197 but that means you get the license to install the plugin to as many wordpress blogs you run. Sounds like a good deal to me, since time IS money and this plugin saves me hours a day of tedious work, and to be honest, it gives me peace of mind, being able to focus more on adding good content to all blogs I own and seeing my traffic grow fast and steadily!

Doing the math

Say you run 10 blogs, and write around 40 posts a week between them. That would mean that without this plugin, you would have to socialbookmark 40×34 times …. a whopping 1360 times per week, over 70.000 times a year!

Adding 5 tags to each post, that means you automatically create over 350.000 backlinks to your 10 blogs each year.

Even if you only have 1 blog, this plugin can

easily get you 35.000 links per year!

All of a sudden that $197 sounds like a great investment to me so I went ahead and got the AutoSocialPoster. I will be posting in the future about the results it is giving me, but if you want to check it out meanwhile, I´d say go for it and have a look, that is, if you are serious about growing your online business

The more I get to learn about Wordpress and the use of Plugins, the more I start loving and appreciate the ease of them. There are a few plugins that I use on a regular base because they make blogging life just so much easier, so I wanted to share them with you. Please keep in mind that most plugins mentioned below are WordPress plugins, sorry for that guys, I only talk about what I know!

If you are not familiar with plugins and how to get them to work, please read this short introduction: Putting Your Plugins to Work before you start dowloading them.

If you are already familiar with plugins, here goes my list of my top 15 plugins I use on different blogs and almost couldn´t live without in the blogsphere!

Plugins to Improve SEO of your blog

• All in One SEO Pack by Uberdose

This one automatically optimizes titles for search engines, generates Meta tags and avoids duplicate content found on wordpress blogs. If you are running wordpress 2.3 or up you don´t even have to look at the options, but you can of course override and title and set any meta description and keywords you want.

• Contextual Related Posts by Mark Ghosh

This plugin is really neat because it shows the last 5 contextually related posts after every single blog post, making it easier for visitors to find related material if they liked the one they just read, but it will also bring forward older posts, thus improving the deeplinking of your blog.

• Dagon Design Sitemap Generator by Dagon Design

This plugin generates a fully customizable sitemap for your WordPress powered site. This is not just another XML sitemap plugin, but rather a true sitemap generator that is highly customizable from its own options page in the WordPress admin panel. Once installed and activated, all you need to do is go to the Settings page inside your WP control panel, click on the DD Sitemap and choose your preference. Once your preference are set, you create a new page and in the html you add the following code where you want the sitemap to show up:

<!– ddsitemapgen –>

Why is this plugin good for SEO? Apart from giving your visitor an easier way to navigate and find things on your site, you are again providing extra links to all your posts.
To see this plugin in action, visit my sitemap page.

• Google XML Sitemaps by Arne Brachhold

This plugin will generate a sitemaps.org compatible sitemap of your WordPress blog that is supported by Ask.com, Google, MSN Search and YAHOO.

• Top Posts By Category by M&M

I am using this plugin to easily show the posts that were most commented all together on one page, but you can also set it to show the most visited posts in your blog.

• WWW Redirect by Justin Shattuck

Redirects variations of identical domain requests to a consistent uri to ensure http://www.easymoneyzine.com and http://easymoneyzine.com are not regarded as two different domains by the search engines.

Important Plugins you really need to install

• WordPress Database Backup by Austin Matzko

After having had a problem with another blog, losing all content because of my own stupidity, I have this plugin installed to make sure I get a database backup emailed to me weekly so I won´t have to worry about that anymore.

• MaxBlogPress Ping Optimizer

Save your wordpress blog from getting tagged as ping spammer by installing this plugin. Did you know that the new Wordpress version already is set to ping http://rpc.pingomatic.com/? (You can find which services you are pinging by going to Settings in your controlpanel and then choose Writing. You can modify the services you want to ping everytime a post comes out at the bottom of that page).

Did you also know that everytime you edit a published post, you are sending another ping to the pinging services and that this might get your blog banned because it is considered spamming if you ping too often for the same post? And another little known fact is that when dating your posts in order to have different posts going public in the future, you will loose the value of these pingservices, because as soon as you hit the publish button, they will start searching your post, and guess what, they won´t find it if you have set the date to the future!

The cool thing about this plugin is that you can actually date posts that you have written and only ping once they are published online. Plus, you can edit your post without the danger of continuously pinging every time you change something in an already existing post. After installing the plugin, just activate it and go to the Settings in your controlpanel to make sure you register the plugin in order for it to work and start avoiding spamming pingers and getting blocked from their services.

• Google Analytics Plugin

If you are looking for an easy way to be able to see how your website is doing, how much traffic you are receiving, where people are coming from, how long they stay and which keywords brought visitors to your blog you might want to open a Google Analytics account for free. Once you have your account you will have to implement some code in order for Google to track your traffic. Now, instead of starting to muddle in the code of your template (and then having to do that again whenever you change to another template) you can use this plugin to easily put in the code. Once installed, just activate it and go to the analytics plugin you can find in Settings, and add the code in order for the plugin to start doing it´s job.

Add some spice to your blog with the following Plugins

• Unique Article Wizard - Creating Unique content for your blog

I only recently found this plugin and have been using it with great pleasure so far. One of the most important things when running a blog (and probably one that will give you the biggest advantages when it comes to the success of your blog) is updating very regularly. But, since we are all human and sometime life get´s in the way, there are always moments that inspiration lacks or we just don´t have the time to add posts. This plugin will allow other people to post articles to your blog, much in the same way article directories receive their articles, without losing control over the content, since you can have them posted as draft versions and you just need to approve the article (or delete it if it does not represent what you agree with).

This Article Wizard is a monthly service to help with your article marketing strategies, sending your articles to all different article directories in a unique version, but separate from that, they offer a free plugin you can easily install in order to receive articles you can publish on your blog for (they support all different sorts of blog platforms, not just wordpress).

You can directly download the plugin here.

• Add Sig by Dagon Design

I am using this plugin at the moment to add some interesting products that I am using, to the bottom of all of my posts but there are of course other things you can do with this plugin without having to change things in the core code. It supports up to three different signature templates so you have an easier way of adding something to the end of all of your posts, whether it be a special message (like for example, “if you liked this post, please leave a comment or digg/stumble it”) or maybe some adsense code or affiliate link.

• Anti-Sociable by Andy Beard

Automatically add links on your posts to popular social bookmarking sites so make it easier to be bookmarked in case a post was really enjoyed. Whenever I use the Sociable plugin, I prefer using the hacked version called Antisocial, which prevents losing linkjuice to social bookmarking sites.

• Commentluv by Andy Bailey

This plugin shows a link to the last post from the commentator´s blog in their comment. Just activate and it´s ready. Currently parses with wordpress, blogspot, typepad and blogs that have a feed link in the head section of their page. I like this plugin a lot; it has already lead me to many interesting blogs I would not have found otherwise.

• Enhanced WP-ContactForm by Joost Valk

WP Contact Form is a drop in form for users to contact you. In the message it sends to you it gives the page the user visited before the contact page, as well as the original outside referrer. It can be implemented on a page or a post. It currently works with WordPress 2.0+ and you can see it in action here. After activation of the plug, just go to Settings in your controlpanel and then to the enhanced wp contactform in order to configure your preference (like where you want the email to be sent to), once done, all you need to do is set up a new page and add the following code to the html wherever you want the contactform to appear:

<!–contact form–>
