Yet, there are still burning questions for the entry-level guru. I recall my early days in ebusiness, eager to start an informative blog, but unsure of what niche to target that would quickly build revenue as well as traffic.<br /><br />Product based content, that is content dealing with individual consumer goods, proved to be a great way to start. As I said earlier, many online entrepreneurs recommend affiliate marketing of products sold online, but what they don't tell you is that the majority of their revenue still comes from campaigns like <a href="http://www.google.com/adsense">Google's AdSense</a>. But why then should a publisher attempt to monetize through product based content?<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Product based content drives search engine traffic.<br /><br /></span>It's as simple as that. The revenue from marketing various goods is different from publisher to publisher, depending on many factors in online business strategy, but the concept (which many overlook, leading me to this conclusion on my own) demonstrates that even if revenue does not increase through affiliate sales, search engine traffic skyrockets. It has everything to do with the modern consumer, who now regularly slaps a product name into a search engine, either to start comparison shopping from there, or to find reviews and testimonials as research before purchasing. Publishers who take advantage of this pattern will benefit in revenue overall, regardless of affiliate sales, especially if targeted advertising is an existing cash-flow stream.<br /><br />Its a simple model, and it can be applied to a multitude of websites--I speak in terms of blogs, as this is for many entrepreneurs an easy head-start in online business. Product based content serves as a highly proactive catalyst for website growth overall, even if it is offered as supplementary content to a pre-existing business model.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2371897400934534155-509409626256404236?l=theversatileguru.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Casey Kinseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03828971462962068490noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2371897400934534155.post-42186901511925900062008-06-27T11:31:00.005-05:002008-06-27T13:56:01.630-05:002008-06-27T13:56:01.630-05:00NewEgg.com is featuring a hellacious deal on that new monitor you've been wanting. In fact, a deal at this rate warrants buying two to get that screen real-estate way up.<br /><br /><img src="http://images10.newegg.com/ProductImageCompressAll200/24-001-088-03.jpg" alt="SAMSUNG 941BW Black 19" border="0" /><br /><br />Though the 500:1 contrast ratio is a bit less than stunning, these cheapies feature a 4MS response time, perfect for watching videos or fragging some n00bs on Call of Duty 4. At less than half the price of comparable Dell monitors (especially when you consider NewEgg's fantastic reliable 3 day shipping at $16.98), you'd be crazy not to get a pair for you, or the techie in your home.<br /><br /><form method="get" action="http://www.dpbolvw.net/interactive" target="_top"><br /><br /><div><b><span style="font-size:130%;">SAMSUNG 941BW Black 19" 4ms (GTG) Widescreen LCD Monitor</span></b></div><br /><div><span style="font-size:85%;">SAMSUNG 941BW Black 19" 4ms (GTG) Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 500:1</span></div><br /><hr /><br /><input name="pid" value="3074491" type="hidden"><input name="aid" value="10440897" type="hidden"><input name="cjsku" value="N82E16824001088" type="hidden"><input name="url" value="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824001088&amp;nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&amp;cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-Monitors - LCD Flat Panel-_-SAMSUNG-_-24001088" type="hidden"><input value="Buy" type="submit"><br /><br /></form><br /><br /><img src="http://www.awltovhc.com/image-3074491-10440897" border="0" height="1" width="1" /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2371897400934534155-4218690151192590006?l=theversatileguru.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Casey Kinseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03828971462962068490noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2371897400934534155.post-72946536011989778922008-06-27T10:31:00.000-05:002008-06-27T10:42:24.089-05:002008-06-27T10:42:24.089-05:00The Versatile Guru is seeking web content editors for a range of daily/weekly online publications consisting partly of original blog content as well as featured blog content from reputable sources.<br /><br />We're working to create a network of elite niche blogs that provide authority and esteem for authors as well as simplicity for readers, who are attempting to find quality content in fragmented sectors of the internet.<br /><br />Interested parties, please feel free to leave a comment with some contact information!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2371897400934534155-7294653601198977892?l=theversatileguru.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Casey Kinseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03828971462962068490noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2371897400934534155.post-11101654929434955812008-06-27T09:03:00.000-05:002008-06-27T10:29:04.819-05:002008-06-27T10:29:04.819-05:00Welcome all to my latest home on the net.<br /><br />Over the next few weeks you will watch as I fill this page with all kinds of content, ranging from large-scale deal hunting posts to gadget reviews. I'll throw in a touch of humor, and some personal life. I'll comment on my findings in the business of the internet and provide insight for like-minded web professionals and entrepreneurs.<br /><br />True to form with these sort of publications, every once-in-a-while, I may gloat about working from home too. I'll try and refrain.
