How to max Adsense revenue

2009-05-04T16:26:00.001-07:00

In this issue, lets talk about how to maximize your Adsense revenue based on your esiting traffic.

Let me say that again - with the same amount of traffic, how can you increase your Adsense income?

Here's a few tips:

1- Use the "Large Rectangle" format
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This format is the most effective among all other Adsense ad formats.

In fact, i've personally tested it and I found that I can get up to 4 times more clicks on the large rectabgle ads than I can with any other format.

2- Make it Blend In with Your Site
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Google allows you to customize you ads to make it match any website design.

Take advantage of this, and make your ads look like they are part of your content, links or navigation bar.

3- Make it Stand Out
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

In contrast to number 2, this strategy makes your ads stand out from the rest of your blog content, with hopes that people will notice them and click on your ads.

Instead on "blending it in", you make it "scream out for more attention"

However, this works only on certain blogs, but you can most certainly test them out to see if it works on yours!

4- Overcome "Ad Blindness"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

The amazing thing with the human brain is that it can train itself to ignore information, especially advertising information!

This is called "ad blindness" and it happens when the same person has visited your site so often that he doesn't even actually notice the ads anymore.

When this happens, you may mant to use tactic 3 or shift the position of ads on your blog to "disrupt" their mental filter and regain the lost potential clicks.

5- Target Your Keywords Properly
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Make sure your posts are on topic, and put the keywords in the title of your blog post as well as in the content.

When you do this, you'll find more relevant ads displayed on your site, resulting in more people clicking on them.

Poolry written, off-topic posts make poor Adsense ads.

I hope you enjoyed those little tips, but remember it's the little changes that make all the difference.

Don't EVER attempt to change your Google identity

2009-05-03T16:50:00.000-07:00

I was told by my accountant that because I incorporated all my various web and internet endeavors last year, I needed to get all my various income and expense accounts into my company's name.

Of course, AdSense is a significant portion of that. But they don't offer you the ability to just change your tax ID and payable. That would be too easy. You have to request a whole new account.

So I did, and it was approved within a couple of days, which is nice. But then came the business of trying to move things over - and that's where the nightmare comes in.

There's no easy way to export your ads or channels or reports, or any of that stuff from your existing AdSense account. That's been taking me the better part of a month (and that's only for one site - I have a lot more)

I got some assistance on getting my old AdSense account unhooked from my Analytics, but apparently I can't hook the new one to my Analytics, because they are different Google Accounts. I can create a new Analytics account under the new Google Account, but then I lose years worth of data. Not an option. So no AdSense/Analytics hookup.

I have a lot of custom search engines created in Google CSE. I can unhook them from my old AdSense account, but I can't hook them to my new account - it says I don't have AdSense for Search set up. Well no, all my search stuff was created in CSE. I have to re-create hundreds of search boxes and code results pages now too?

Not to mention the other services, like iGoogle, and my AdWords account (AdWords doesn't seem to have a problem with my corporate identity) These things are important, because they allow me to keep a lot of the site feeds and bookmarks I need to keep synced on different computers - but between my own accounts and my client accounts, I'm bopping in and out of different Google accounts a hundred times a day, because there's no way to be in more than one at the same time unless you use different browsers - I'm up to three, I need 22 more browsers to cover all my accounts.

ALL of this could have been spared had Google let me change my tax ID number. That's all.

Now I'm looking at significant downtime, right at my peak season, and I'll probably never get back everything I had working on the old account, or get the same data and the same reports and same search engines as I was.

And of course, all through this, I can't get any support. If I send an email to support, it just bounces back and tells me to get USER support in the forums. Well I don't think USER support is going to do me any good here.

I guess nobody else in the history of Google ever tried to do this before, because there's absolutely no clear or easy way to do it.

Whatever account or payable you have now - keep it for life.

How to welcome and greeting our prospect in professional way

The first email a subscriber gets from you shapes his or her view of you and your company.

So how can you make that first impression a positive one?

By creating an effective first email to new subscribers (what we call a welcome email) you can foster trust and liking between you and your prospects.

Anyone Can Create an Effective Welcome Email. They're Simple.

It's not 100% perfect, but it does a lot of things right - and as you'll see, it's the kind of email that anyone (not just seasoned email marketers) can create.

It impressed me, and if you take a few cues from it, you can impress your prospects too.

As you can see, building the kind of solid relationships that translate to responsive subscribers isn't hard. A friendly, helpful email (common sense stuff, yes?) can do your business a world of good.

Important Steps to Online Surviver especially Affiliate Marketers

2008-06-24T16:05:00.000-07:00

a
The A,B, and C steps to sustaining your Affiliate business. Their more things, but I think this list is a best list for all Internet Marketer.

Every affiliate marketer is always looking for the successful market that gives the biggest paycheck. Sometimes they think it is a magic formula that is readily available for them. Actually, it is more complicated than that. It is just good marketing practices that have been proven over years of hard work and dedication.
There are tactics that have worked before with online marketing and is continuing to work in the online affiliate marketing world of today. With these top three marketing tips, you will be able to able to increase your sales and survive in the affiliate marketing online.

What are these three tactics?

1. Using unique web pages to promote each separate product you are marketing. Do not lump all of it together just to save some money on web hosting. It is best to have a site focusing on each and every product and nothing more.

Always include product reviews on the website so visitors will have an initial understanding on what the product can do to those who buys them. Also include testimonials from users who have already tried the product. Be sure that these customers are more than willing to allow you to use their names and photos on the site of the specific product you are marketing.

You can also write articles highlighting the uses of the product and include them on the website as an additional page. Make the pages attractive compelling and include calls to act on the information. Each headline should attract the readers to try and read more, even contact you. Highlight your special points. This will help your readers to learn what the page is about and will want to find out more.

2. Offer free reports to your readers. If possible position them at the very top side of your page so it they simply cannot be missed. Try to create autoresponder messages that will be mailed to those who input their personal information into your sign up box. According to research, a sale is closed usually on the seventh contact with a prospect.

Only two things can possibly happen with the web page alone: closed sale or the prospect leaving the page and never return again. By placing useful information into their inboxes at certain specified period, you will remind them of the product they thought they want later and will find out that the sale is closed. Be sure that the content is directed toward specific reasons to buy the product. Do not make it sound like a sales pitch.

Focus on important points like how your product can make life and things easier and more enjoyable. Include compelling subject lines in the email. As much as possible, avoid using the word “free” because there are still older spam filters that dumps those kind of contents into the junk before even anyone reading them first. Convince those who signed up for your free reports that they will be missing something big if they do not avail of your products and services.

3. Get the kind of traffic that is targeted to your product. Just think, if the person who visited your website has no interest whatsoever in what you are offering, they will be among those who move on and never come back. Write articles for publication in e-zines and e-reports. This way you can locate publications that is focusing on your target customers and what you have put up might just grab their interest.

Try to write a minimum of 2 articles per week, with at least 300-600 words in length. By continuously writing and maintaining these articles you can generate as many as 100 targeted readers to your site in a day.
Always remember that only 1 out of 100 people are likely to buy your product or get your services. If you can generate as much as 1,000 targeted hits for your website in a day, that means you can made 10 sales based on the average statistic.

The tactics given above does not really sound very difficult to do, if you think about it. It just requires a little time and an action plan on your part.

Try to use these tips for several affiliate marketing programs. You can end maintaining a good source of income and surviving in this business that not all marketers can do.
Besides, think of the huge paychecks you will be receiving…

Neverblue Affiliate review

2008-06-22T12:27:00.000-07:00

Do you tired any affiliate? and found you have no success with it, $60 in 6 months? I came across NeverBlueAd's 3 weeks back and signed up not sure what expecting.

They give you a call on your phone after you sign up to ask you some questions like where you traffic comes from and to confirm your email etc and after that they confirm your account is now active. So i started into it and went for ad's that would suit my site and traffic, there is plenty to choose from.

I let it run for a couple of weeks without checking what i was making and i was amazed to find i had made $116 in 2 weeks!!! compared to my $60 in 6 months with adsense i was jumping for joy as such!! I had mixed my ad's up with freebie ad's which make you around $1.50 when someone completes a prize draw or survey along with other ad's more geared towards the content of my site.

You can various methods to promote your the ad's with email campaigns etc which i don't use. I'm now just into my 3rd week and they are NET15:

They seem to accept almost all kinds of sites as mine wasn't exactly a busy site when i signed up and a friend of mine has been running with the ad's on his :cough warez site with great success.

The Best Way to Promote Your Affiliate

2008-06-20T06:34:00.000-07:00

Affiliate marketing is a way for online businesses to promote themselves through their network of affiliates, or online publishers. Affiliates sign up to an online retailers affiliate program and put advertisements for that retailer (usually in the form of banners) on their own sites. Affiliates are then rewarded for referring new customers to the retailer's website through the ads and generating sales.

If you're considering starting your own affiliate program, the first thing you want to think about is start up funding. Just like any other business venture, this will take funds to begin. Assuming that you've already determined and secured a source for this funding, here are the essentials that you will need in order to start the program and promote it.

Website - Most people who look into starting their own affiliate programs obviously already have a website and services or products they want affiliates to promote.

Affiliate Management Software - This software handles many different things, like the tracking of sales by different affiliates, products, and other things. This is another essential when starting an affiliate program. What this does is track the visitors, sales, and/or subscriptions (depending on what action you want visitors to your site to take) that come from each of your different affiliates. This is so that you are able to pay your affiliates the correct percentage of the sale, see who is referring the most visitors and generating the most revenue, and so on. These two things are the very basics for starting your own affiliate program. Next comes the promoting and marketing.

Promoting Your Affiliate Program:

Affiliate Networks - This is the most common way to promote your affiliate program, as many webmasters go through these networks to find new affiliate programs to join. Affiliate networks do charge you (as a merchant) various fees, such as one-time setup fees or periodic maintenance fees; however, they are an easy way to get your affiliate program known. Networks also provide you with reporting and tracking tools. Examples of affiliate networks are Commission Junction and Linkshare.

Newsletters - If you have a newsletter, you should definitely include this information. Existing customers would be great affiliates, as they use your product or service and can sell it to others better than someone who doesn't use the product or service. By including this information in your newsletter, you can inform your existing customers of your new affiliate program.

Forums - Affiliate forums are a great resource for marketing your new affiliate program. The people on forums like this are either already affiliates for other
products, or are interested in becoming affiliates. This is great, as you don't have to hunt them down - they are already there. By posting often in forums like this, you are sure to inform a lot of interested and experienced individuals about your new program.

Article Marketing - This is a great way to inform potential affiliates about your new program. By simply submitting some great articles to article marketing databases, you are able to get the word out. These are a bit tricky, as the articles can't be full of hype and overselling, but if you hire an experienced writer, they should know how to get them done.

By following the tips and ideas above, you can successfully start your own affiliate program, and be on your way to making more money and getting more exposure for your product. Good luck!
