So here is few tips what you can upload to youtube and generate some traffic:
Example my video; How To Make Money

This video alone which is pretty much LAME and I wasn’t sure what I was doing got me over 6.000 page views. There is other videos I made and my traffic trippled in just few months. (I am talking about different blog, more tech blog)

What I would like you to do for homework:

Create video that will help others, make it original. See also what is trending on YouTube. Most YouTuber’s love comedy so be funny and creative. Imagine just if you make that video and land 360.000 video views , now from that 360K viewers probably 1/4 of them will visit your site. So don’t forget to include your website on the sidebar!!!

Wish you happy youtubing!

Best time to blog post will be right in the morning 6am. Most people wake up at that time, have their coffee, serial and laptop front of them. But that does not mean that your particular audience is going to be that way.

Why?

Blogs like Political News, Economy News, Technology News or Celebrity News (News that change constantly) are more interesting to read in the morning or after work 5PM.

Blogs like Make Money Online, Astronomy, How To’s, Education etc …are more visited throughout the day BUT there is always that peak time which you should hit every day.

As you can see BONTB peak time is between 12pm-18pm now I would like you to compare your times and see the difference.

Again Why?????

Because what you want to do is check your time line when people are most visiting and blog post about an hour before the big audience arrives. This way people will say “Oh this has been just updated, great!” or “Wow I got to bookmark this!, it’s breaking news!”

That’s why!

Wish you many visitors my friends!

Here are some interesting blog posts that will explain in detail how much you should charge and is pretty fair to your advertising clients:

How Much Should I Charge for my Advertising Space? by Problogger

Nice comparison on how much to charge by MakeYougohmm

I think at the end you should first think what is the topic you are writing about and how much value are you bringing to your advertisers. I for example charge less for advertisers that write about technology because from time to time they also link back. Than also you should consider that how valuable your content is, you could build autoblog and get 150.000 page views but that does not mean your audience is clicking on advertising links example: ToyotaCrazy in such cases best thing to do is just go with adsense let them figure how much you get paid

“The new tool will allow you to look at keywords through three important metrics – frequency, competitiveness and commerciality”

• What metrics do you really need?
• Do you need prediction of the daily traffic a keyword may attract or do you just want to know the frequencies in our own database?
• How useful and accurate is the keyword effectiveness index (KEI)?
• What alternative ways to rank keywords would you like to see?
• How can we best report the competitiveness of a keyword?
• How do you uncover commercial intent?

It really does not matter if you are new to blogging and what page rank you have all you really need is focus on Top Keywords and blogs that rank number one for keywords like example: “Make Money Online” or “Best Technology Blogs”

This is what I would like you to do!

Do research which blog is number 1 for keyword you are looking for. Then go to that blog and leave comment in way you don’t sound like spammer yet you want to draw traffic from that blog to your blog (blog post).

If you notice also that blog is accepting Post Trackbacks write a GOOD blog post on your blog and link to that blog post which is ranking No.1 for specific keyword.
This trick worked for me each time, I would get at least 500 visitors each month from each blog that rank number one.

So it really does not matter if you rank 12403 for keyword like “make money online” because your comment or Trackback is going to give you pretty much good exposure to people, that were interested in that keyword.

Here are few examples you can try and see the differences in your traffic in next 24-48 hr’s

Go to Twitter Feed login and the rest it’s self explanatory:

• Import RSS Feeds.  Set blog rss feed to be tweeted on your twitter account every 30minutes  to 1h.  Or once per day, this all depends on how often do you write on your blog.

New startup called SocialMedian can help you also gain traffic.

• Register, Import your social networks, import your rss feeds

Remember this year there will be more new internet people online, and without social networks they might not find you, because search engines are over crowded with top keywords.

The only thing this simple blog with very gentle look did not have is About page, I was so interested reading that after I was finished I wanted to find out more about authors and who the founder is yet I was not able to find it.

So anyways blogs like this should be rewarded for great content they provide and simplicity of navigation. I mean just checkout their Categories how they are setup, loving it!

What does this tell you?

Great content will catch your audience attention, the better content it is the more loyal visitors you will get and on top of that they will stay longer on your site because they are interested in your writing and content.

Oh and if you are visiting Edu Book please don’t forget to visit their Business section that was my favorite one!

1. SE Optimization (SEO) – The pages on your site are checked for the
percentage of keywords you want to target, and the quality of the
content on the page. Your SEO consultant should make recommendations
regarding your site content to improve it in the eye of the Search
Engines.
Key search engines like MSN and AOL Search still rely on metatags or
html code that include keywords related to your site. A good SEO
optimization of your metatags can mean the difference of a #40 ranking
vs. a Top 20 ranking.

2. Pay per click (PPC) – PPC search engines like Overture (formerly
Goto.com) and Findwhat can get you targeted, fast traffic while you are
patiently watching the other search engines to rank your site.
Recently, Overture’s top 3 keywords results show up at the top of
searches on Yahoo! above the Yahoo! paid sites. For some keywords,
paying for a top 3 position can be very expensive, but with careful
research you can find some keywords available for 5 cents per click.

3. Regular monitoring – You should get an initial report in 4-6 weeks
and then preferably a monthly report. Your SEO consultant should
provide ideas on achieving better rankings for keywords that are not
doing as well as you’d like to see. While a Top 10 ranking is the
ideal, some Top 20 rankings are realistic.

4. Inclusion in select pay for inclusion SE indexes and directories –
Inclusions in fee based can be useful if you want to target specific
search engines or directories like Looksmart and Yahoo! Depending on
your budget, you may want to purchase inclusion right away or hold off
until the other Search Engines pick you up first. Your SEO consultant
should provide the option to help you get into fee-based inclusions,
and be able to explain the benefits and differences of each one.

5. Submission to key SE directories – To rank well on Google and in
turn, Yahoo! web pages, you need to be listed in the Open Directory
Project directory. Directories like ODP are human edited and depending
on the category, it can take from 3 weeks to 2 months to get accepted.

There is two parts to this topic

• It can hurt your reputation
• You make money and live happily ever after

It Can Hurt Your Reputation

If you are somebody who has high profile on Twitter let say 5.000 followers and more, you probably are going to be targeted person by spammers. They will ask you to advertise for them via tweets and in exchange you will get money.  First of all ask your self, is this something I would tweet if “spammer” wouldn’t ask me? Is tweet you are asked to write too spamish ? If your answer to all questions is Yes just skip the whole BS and read “You Make Money And Live Happily Ever After”.

If your answer is NO, my advise to you is to stop look like Pig with $ $ sign eyes. Remember that sooner or later one of your followers will find out who the spammer is, they might even write about it and then what? Your twitter reputation is over, your blog reputation is over. Ok maybe not over, but many of people will un-follow you and think of you as somebody that has money and is just greedy. Oh and such people are most likely banned from Twitter or their accounts are suspended.

You Make Money and Live Happily Ever After

If you chose to make money you better hide that very good. That’s all I can say. I would feel guilty and considered my self spammer.  Well at least you make money and live happily ever after….
