Nigerians have made millions on the internet, Nigerians are still making millions and they will still continue to make millions on the internet. I still wonder why a lot of young Nigerian still spend countless hours on the cyberspace indulging in fraudulent activities when there are scores of legitimate things to do online.

Many smart individuals are earning thousands of naira online on a monthly basis while some earn enough online to quit their 7-7 jobs to become their own boss. Interestingly, the internet is growing about 45 million internet users, meaning opportunities are also increasing.

Evidently, the internet is a great market Nigerians can take advantage of? The next billionaires of the 21century will be those who build businesses that align with the internet. To make money online you don’t have to be a WhizKid or programmer to make money online in Nigeria. Here are three online businesses you can engage in.

Bulk SMS Business

This is another lucrative business that has made millions for some individuals. The bulk SMS business is less stressful but makes money. Only recently, a friend told me how he started bulk SMS business.

He said the idea came to him suddenly and he followed it through. Then, he bought SMS online and sent it to friends and family. Immediately, he took an action and bold step sending proposal to ten churches and seven schools in his environment.

Out of the seven schools and ten churches that received his proposal, six churches and four schools bought his offering. When he started the bulk SMS business, he went home with N30, 000 to N50, 000 every month. But now his portfolio has grown. The secret of success in bulk SMS business is the ability to develop professional and compelling proposals.

How to make money online

2012-11-22T05:12:00.002-08:00

The first step is to stop Googling things like, "how to make money online." Not because you shouldn't want to make money online, but because the stuff you're going to find by doing that is going to help you lose money online. Sort of like asking a casino owner how to make money in Vegas...
Don't pay anyone for simple and proven instructions on how to achieve this goal. In particular, don't pay anyone to teach you how to write or sell manuals or ebooks about how to make money online.
Get rich slow.
Focus on the scarce resource online: attention. If you try to invent a way to take cheap attention and turn it into cash, you will fail. The attention you want isn't cheap, it's difficult to get via SEO and it rarely scales. Instead, figure out how to earn expensive attention.
In addition to attention, focus on trust. Trust is even more scarce than attention.
Don't worry so much about the 'online' part. Instead, figure out how to create value. The online part will take care of itself.
Don't quit your day job. Start evenings and weekends and figure it out with small failures.
Build a public reputation. A good one, and be sure that you deserve it, and that it will hold up to scrutiny.
Obsessively specialize. No niche is too small if it's yours.
Connect the disconnected.
Lead.
Build an online legacy that increases in value daily.
Make money offline. If you can figure out how to create value face to face, it's a lot easier to figure out how to do the same digitally. The web isn't magic, it's merely efficient.
Become the best in the world at something that people value. Easier said than done, worth more than you might think.
Hang out with people who aren't looking for shortcuts. Learn from them.
Fail. Fail often and fail cheaply. This is the very best gift the web has given to people who want to bootstrap their way into a new business.
Make money in the small and then relentlessly scale.
Don't chase yesterday's online fad.
Think big, act with intention and don't get bogged down in personalities. If it's not on your agenda, why are you wasting time on it?
Learn. Ceaselessly. Learn to code, to write persuasively, to understand new technologies, to bring out the best in your team, to find underused resources and to spot patterns.
This is not a zero sum game. The more you add to your community, the bigger your piece gets.

How To Start a Gift Basket Business From Home

2012-06-11T11:59:00.000-07:00

How to start a gift basket business from home?…It is a common question amongst lots of people (especially women) who are looking for creative home business ideas, to start their very own small business.
If you are one of those people and are looking for a home business that doesn’t demand a lot of start-up capital, one that doesn’t require years of education and one that you can start right away and make money right away, then you need to think about starting your very own gift basket home based business!
Gift basket business is what you would call an evergreen business. There is always a market for gift baskets just as there is always a market for restaurants, clothing stores, gas stations and etc.
Gift baskets make a great gift on many occasions. You can offer a gift basket on almost any occasion including birthdays, anniversaries, annual festivals and holidays. And that is why I think making and selling gift baskets make a great home business.

Basket Occasions
A very helpful feature of this business of making gift baskets is that you can design baskets depending not only on the occasion but also on various themes. This enables you to offer baskets over a wide price range from being just affordable to extravagant. That helps you to have more customers.
Once you have taken care of this part of your business, you need to understand your competitors and their business strategy. You need to get a fairly good idea of their prices to work out your prices. It’s not all that difficult if you are willing to spend sometime on the Internet and check what others are offering and at what prices.
For getting started in your business it will be good to match your prices with those of your competitors or you may even keep them marginally lower to get a breakthrough in market.

Procuring Your Materials
Next on your agenda should be procurement of items for your baskets. You can definitely get items at very competitive prices if you buy those from wholesalers. Most suppliers should be willing to offer you discounted prices if you confirm your bulk requirements on them. That way you save money during the initial phase of your business.

Getting Design Ideas
You would appreciate that designing your baskets plays a very vital role in this business as people are not paying only for the items but also for the ideas that go into making of your baskets.
Apart from conducting online research, it will be a smart idea to refer to specific magazines available at the local library. You can check with bakeries and some stores in your area if they would be interested to contribute their items for your gift baskets and share profit.
That way you can trade your baskets through local shops by keeping some items from such shops. You may like to explore the possibility of having long-term business with local bakeries and shops and thus have some regular buyers.
Sell Creativity
Here you have an opportunity to demonstrate your creativity and get paid! Put some unconventional ideas to practice to create your own gift baskets.
Why not have a low-priced tool box and fill it up with beef jerky and sunflower seeds for making Father’s day baskets. For Mother’s day think on the lines of having a big pitcher with a towel, book and perhaps a packet of tea bags!

Getting the Word Out
You can prepare baskets at home and promote your sales by inserting ads in local newspapers and in case you are looking for larger audience online advertising would be worthwhile.
You can even build a simple website filled with gift basket pictures and pricing. Use social media to build relationship with potential customers (which can be anyone, since gift giving is a universal idea).
Twitter and Facebook are perfect examples of social networking that can bring loads of customers to your site.

A Lasting Business
As I mentioned in the beginning, gift basket is an ever green idea. It’s not a seasonal business. You could run it all year around and make money nonstop. However, there are times you could double or triple you business income, Holidays!
Holidays present an excellent opportunity for your business. Making gift baskets for holidays no matter big or small enables you to make even more money with your gift basket business. And not only that, it’s a great opportunity for you to find and build relationship with long-term costumers.
For example, make an impression by designing a great gift basket for a birthday and transform your first time customer to a repeat customers that reruns every year. Not only that, you may even get more orders from those who attended the birthday party and liked your gift basket.

Lots of people may think this is one of those “home business ideas for women” kind of thing, but the truth is, with a little creativity and commitment anyone can run a successful and profitable gift basket business from home.
You just need to be creative and keep your mind open to new ideas. Don’t be afraid to experiment. Let your creativity flow and this business can fulfill your creative and financial needs.

Survey Scout Review – Is Survey Scout a Scam?

2012-06-11T11:53:00.001-07:00

Survey Scout is one of those names in paid surveys industry that is recognized by most people who make money with paid surveys or trying to. However, a lot of people are not actually familiar with the company and there are many people who actually think Survey Scout is a scam. So, I decided to do a SurveyScout review to shed some light on what really SurveyScout is all about.
I actually got to know SurveyScout about 5 years ago when I was really active in making money online with paid surveys. Like many of you, I had been hearing about Survey Scout on the web and had read a few reviews about it as well. But I still was not sure if it was a legitimate paid surveys site or just another survey scam designed to rip people off.
Now, if you have Been reading my blog for a while, you know that I always say legitimate paid surveys sites are 100% free to join and I would personally never pay to join a survey site and I always advise you to not do that either.
But, I had been hearing so much about survey scout and I was desperately trying to make even more money with paid surveys that I just had to go against my instinct and pay the $34.95 fee to register with SurveyScout. And this is what I found out after getting in.

Is Survey Scout a Scam Or a Real Paid Surveys Site?
Here is the thing, SurveyScout is not actually a market research company that conducts online surveys. Meaning, when you sign up with Survey Scout, you don’t actually get invitation to paid surveys where you can fill out the survey and get paid by SurveyScout.
So, What is SurveyScout?
Basically, Survey Scout is a directory of hundreds of legitimate paid surveys sites. So, basically you are paying that one time fee of $34.95 to get a list of a few hundred legitimate paid survey companies that you can register with for free and make money by participating in their market research studies.
Now, here is deal; you could pretty much find many of these paid surveys sites that are listed in Survey Scout’s database by researching online and also by reading my list of 40+ real and legitimate online surveys sites.
Why Would You Pay to Access Survey Scout’s Paid Surveys Database?
Well, the thing is if you were to search the Internet and find all these few hundred paid surveys sites that are listed in Survey Scout’s database, you could probably find 1/3 of them for free, but, you would have to spend a lot of time. Now, if you are like most people and think time = money, then you wouldn’t want to spend hours and days perhaps, searching all over the web trying to find all these sites.
Not to mention the fact that almost 2/3 of the legitimate paid surveys sites that are listed with Survey Scout can not be found elsewhere on the Internet, no matter how long you search for them and how much time you spend trying to find them.
Would I Recommend Anyone to Join SurveyScout?
I’ll be honest, you should only register with survey scout if…

You are really committed and want to make decent money taking paid surveys and you want to join as many paid surveys sites as possible, so you can make more money by participating in more online surveys.
You can actually afford to pay the one time fee to become a member and access their database of legit paid surveys companies.

Do Not Join SurveyScout If…
You are just trying to make some extra cash by spending a few hours a week or so taking online surveys, then I would suggest you to save your money. You can use my free list of 40+ legitimate paid surveys sites to register with a few survey companies. You will have more survey invitations that you can handle. Trust me!
Basically, when you pay to register with Survey Scout, you are paying for a huge list of legit paid surveys sites that you couldn’t otherwise find (at least most of them) elsewhere. So, in a sense it does save you money by helping you save a lot of time
So, in conclusion I would say, Survey Scout is not a scam, but it is also not what most of us think it is. It is not a paid survey company, thus you can’t actually make money with them (as they claim on their sales page). But, Survey Scout can indirectly help you make money with paid surveys by providing you a comprehensive list of legitimate paid surveys sites which you can join to get paid for your opinion.

3 Part-Time Home Business Ideas

2- Part-time home business idea – eBay Trading Assistant

Why not use what you have learned to teach other people how are new to eBay how to successfully sell on eBay? Not only you will be helping a fellow citizen, you will also be making some extra cash.

Earning Money with WebAnswers – Passive Income?

2012-05-16T08:44:00.000-07:00

WebAnswers.com is basically a questions and answers site just like Yahoo Answers where people can ask and answer questions. However, unlike Yahoo Answers, you can actually make money by posting questions and also answering other people’s questions.
WebAnswer is basically a revenue sharing kind of Q&A site where the revenue earned from Google Adsense ads that are displayed alongside your questions and answers are shared with you. It is a great way to make money online that almost anyone can use to make some extra cash.

1- Register with Google Adsense
To be able to earn money, obviously you will have to have a Google Adsense account. You can get one for free by visiting Google.com/adsense (you will have to wait a while as Adsense accounts must be approved).

2- Register for free with WebAnswers
Simply visit WebAnswers.com and register for free so you can get started. Once you have confirmed your account, login to your WebAnswers dashboard and link your Adsense account, so you can start earning money with Adsense ads that will be displayed alongside your answers and questions.

3- Ask and answer questions
Simply start asking questions and answering other people’s questions. Basically the more questions you post and the more answers you give, the more money you make, as your Adsense ads will be displayed in more pages and will get more clicks and impressions, which will earn you more money.
How much money can you make on WebAnswers
The beauty of getting paid to answer questions and asking questions with WebAnswers is that although you don’t make a lot of money quickly, you will make a steady amount of income which over time (as your questions and answers pages rise in ranking and continue to draw in more traffic) will grow.
Yes, for each individual questions and answer you post, you may not make more than a few cents at a time, but you only have to post a question or answer once and it will continue to earn you money as long as WebAnswers exist. Now that is what I call passive income.

A good thing about WebAnswers is that just like Yahoo Answers there is a “best answer” feature, where if your answer gets picked as the best answer, it will normally draw in more traffic and consequently more impression and clicks on your Adsense ads, which will obviously increase your WebAnswers earnings.

Make Money Online Without Selling Anything

2012-05-14T07:46:00.004-07:00

How to make money online without selling anything?…Almost everyone looking to make money online is selling something or using advertising funds for content. What’s the problem with these methods? If everyone is done them, how can you squeeze into these niches without some serious competition? The answer is that you can’t. However, you can actually make lots of money with a product that has no price tag. That’s right, give your product away. No price, no hidden fees, absolutely free. How can you profit from this insane move? Keep reading and find out.

Create Your Product
First, make a product. If you can write, make an ebook. If you can design, make some business cards. Whatever you do, make a product that you can give away over and over without providing any service. If you don’t have any skills, then outsource the work to somewhere like TextBroker, RentACoder or Elance.
Setup Your Website
Next, setup your website. A good design may help, but the free market pretty much sells itself, so a stellar design isn’t needed. Just get a free website template and upload it to your host’s server. However, while you can use a free template, don’t use a free host. Spend the extra money and go for a real domain, it will help rankings.
Upload Your File
Now, this is how you will make money. Upload your file to a service that pays you per every 1,000 downloads. A few websites that do this are ShareCash, Uploading and FileCash. You upload the file and every 1,000 downloads will usually net you $1-$5. Sure, it doesn’t sound like much, but since free can sell itself, getting 10,000 downloads a day won’t be hard after some marketing.
Promote Your Product
Speaking of marketing, that is the next step. Most people marketing their website through paid means, like paid traffic, but that isn’t worth the expense and organic traffic is better anyway. Submit some articles to EzineArticles, HubPages and ArticleCity about how great your free downloads are. Also, visit some forums about your topic (if you have free websites, go to a forum about websites), place your URL in the signature and start posting. Don’t spam, only make good comments.
After this, concentrate on making (or outsourcing) new products. If you become stale, your earnings will drop. Not only that, but new products will get the downloading enthusiasm that your older products may start lackingIf you have an opt-in list attached to your website, you can also email people each time you get a new product. That means you can alert hundreds or thousands of people at once, people who are already interested in your free downloads, to make big profits for each new file. That is how you can make money online without selling anything.

How to Make Money with Photography

2012-05-14T07:40:00.004-07:00

How to make money with photography online?… Whether you are a professional photographer or use your camera as a hobby tool, you’ve probably wondered if you could actually make money online with your photographs. Luckily, there are a few simple ways of making money from photography. The good thing is that even if you are not a professional photographer, you can still make money with your images. Here are 2 ways to make money with photography:

1- Sell stock photography
Microstock photography is the newest and most popular methods for making money with photographs. It’s based on a simple yet brilliant idea. It enable anyone to upload their photos and sell them to willing buyers, while making it possible for buyer to purchase images at deep discount.
Basically, you go out there with your camera, take some quality pictures and upload them on the site. Every time one of your images is sold, you earn anywhere from $0.20 to up to $0.50 or more per picture sold. Keep in mind though, this is not technically selling your pictures, it’s basically licensing them to other people so that they can use it wherever they need to (for use in websites, magazines, design, etc). Which means, you (the photographer) hold full copyrights to your pictures and that allows you to sell those pictures over and over again. And that is what makes stock photography interesting and potentially profitable.
Yeah, $0.50 per picture isn’t much, but considering that you can sell that same picture for 100s of times, you can see how having only a few dozens pictures can add up to a decent amount of money every month.
Stock photography sites

Getty Images – When it comes to making money with photography, Getty Images is perhaps the most well-known site. You can upload and sell all kinds of different styles of stocks .
iStockPhoto – Very well known amongst internet users and a great site to sell your pictures on.
Fotolia – It’s growing unbelievably fast with hundred and thousands of pictures.

2-Sell your pictures as prints
Another option for those who want to know how to make money with photography, could be print images. It’s a simple way to make money with your camera. You can take your picture one step farther and upload them to printing websites, where people can order print versions of your photos.

The printing website gets the majority of the money, but you will also get a percentage of the revenue earned. Although, the money may not be much, it’s just so easy to do that doing it is just a no brainer. Not to mention the fact that you don’t have to deal with taking order, doing the actual printing, shipping and all the rest.
Where to sell your images as prints

Picasso Mio – A very famous printing site which also you to upload an unlimited number of images.
Red Bubble – RB is growing in popularity faster than most of its competitors.
Imagekind – One of the biggest and most well-known print websites where anyone can make money with their pictures.

There you have it, this is how to make money from photography. Obviously, the most profitable and lucrative option is to get hired as a professional photographer. Of course, not ll of us are professional photographers, so that may not work for everyone. That is why I think the above mentioned options are great alternatives for anyone wanting to learn how to make money with photography online.

Ways to Make Money with MySpace

2012-05-14T07:35:00.000-07:00

How to make money with MySpace? Can the average user start making money online on MySpace?… A few questions that many MySpace users would like to know the answer to.
Social networking has been the biggest game changer in the evolution of online socialization. It has changed the way we receive and pass on information. In mere seconds you can send a massage to to hundreds of thousands of people around the world, and that makes the social networking sites a prime market for advertisers who are trying to get their product and services seen by as many people as possible.

But, what about the average user, how can average users like you and I benefit from MySpcae financially? Is there any way that the average Myspace user like you and I can make money on Myspace?…The answer is yes! There are a few easy ways to make money with MySpace that even the average users can use.

1- Sell your own stuff
Like any other social networking site, MySpace is an excellent way to promote your own products or services. Whether you’re a freelance writer, a blogger, an artist, an SEO expert, a musician or what have you, MySpace is a great way to get the word out about your work. The most important point to remember is to not spam people. You want to establish a good relationship with people and become a trusted member, so when people need the kind of service or product you have, they will come to you first.
2- Offer a MySpace related service
There are tons of people out there that can’t do simple things like creating a MySpace account or if they do, they just dont have the time or the patience to do it themselves. You can do this for them for a small fee.
3- Sell MySpace layouts and graphics
A popular way for making money with MySpace is through designing and selling MySpace templates and graphics. MySpace layouts and graphics are always in high demand. If you can design, then why not make money with them. There are two ways to go about this. You can either charge a one time fee for a single product or better yet, you can offer your products as a package in a membership site where a monthly fee will grant people to access all of your products.
4- Sell advertising space
Social networking sites are a magnet for advertisers as they allow them to put their ads in front of highly targeted audience. Obviously, to attract lots of advertisers, you must have a large number of MySpace friends. Don’t wait for advertisers to come to you, go to them and tell them how advertising their products in your MySpace page will benefit them.
5- Affiliate Marketing
One of the most popular ways to make money online is affiliate marketing which can also be used as a way to make money on MySpace. Simply register with a couple of affiliate marketing networks like Clickbank and MaxBounty. Look for product or services that your MySpace friends would be interested in.
It is important not to start your advertising campaign right away. You need to build a relationship with people and show them you are not a spammer. Try to be helpful. Interact with your MySpace friends.
When you know that you have established yourself in your MySpace community, that’s when you can start promoting your affiliate products. You can use bulletins, messages, or comments to post your affiliate links, or you can have them appear as ads on your MySpace blog. There are many ways to do this. You just need to be creative.
The most important factor in succeeding in making money on MySpace and in fact on any other social networking site is traffic and in this case, it means MySpace friends. The more MySpace friends you have, the better your chances of making it. If you have been using MySpace for a while, you might very well have a good number of MySpace friends. But if you are just starting out, then you need to build up your friend count and that can take some time. Of course you can always add new friends by simply searching and requesting others to be your friend.

You can use also use these method to make money on Facebook or Twitter. Remember, nothing of importance is accomplished easy and overnight, specially making money online.One of the most common reason for majority of people failing in making money online is that they give up right before all of their hard work is about to payoff. You need to work hard and be patient. These two factors combined with a focused attitude towards your goal will be the deciding factors in whether or not you can make money with MySpace

To make money from Android apps, you have to submit your app to Android’s marketplace where you can sell your apps. The market place is run by Google and anybody can submit apps to sell. However, if you want to become a developer and submit more apps, you will have to pay a $25 one time fee. The best part about becoming a developer is that you don’t have to wait for review of your app. As a developer, as soon as you submit your app, it will appear in the marketplace.
From then on, the money will start coming in, as your app will start selling. Of course the better and more useful your app is, the more sales you can expect

Make money from Android apps using direct advertisers
This may be a bit harder, especially if your app is new and not popular yet, but can be done. Simply contact different advertises and offer them to advertise in your app. This kind of advertising is becoming increasingly popular and so most companies do mobile advertising these days.

Make money with Android apps using AdSense
Yeah, it seems like Adsense is everywhere. Whenever the talk of learning to make money, whether it’s learning how to make money blogging or in this instance learning how to make money with Android apps, Adsense is there to help!
Jokes aside, Adsense is a truly easy way of making money with Android apps. To get started, sign up with Admob, which is Adsense for mobiles. Then follow the instruction in your Android marketplace account to add the Admob code to your app so you can start earning money. Admob works the same way as Adsense, every time someone clicks on one of the ads, you get paid. The more clicks you get, the more money you make.
Promoting your app
When it comes to learning how to make money with apps, whether Android apps, iPhone apps or any other kind, this one of the most important parts. While just being listed in the marketplace may bring you a few sales, promoting your app will bring you even more sales.
So, use whatever means necessary to promote your app. Put ads on free classified site like Craigslist and Backpage. If you have a blog, promote your app on it or better yet create a blog about your app. You can also submit your app to app review sites to be reviewed. It’s all about getting the word out there and making people aware of your app and what it can do for them.

That is basically how you can make money from Android apps. It may not be the best way to make money, but if you are a good app developer or at least enjoy developing new apps (even if you someone else to make the app for you), making money from Android apps can be a really fun way to make money. Of course, you will do much better once you get past the initial curves of learning how to make money with Android apps.

2012-05-14T07:06:00.002-07:00

Wanna know how to make money on youtube? Can you make a simple video?… If yes, then you can make money using youtube. Making money on youtube comes down to videos and somehow getting your video(s) to rank well. If you can somehow put this two together (youtube & video) in a way that it can benefit a person, a business or a site, then you can easily make money with you tube. Luckily, you don’t have to come up with any ideas on your own. Here is a straight forward step by step method that you can use to make money on youtube.
This method is all about going local, though when you master this method you can take it to the next level and go national as well. But if you wanna get your share of youtube money quickly, focus on your local area. Usually ranking locally for a keyword is much easier, and that is why this method works best with local businesses. We will use YouTube videos to rank well for the keyword since YouTube videos are hot and rank easily for their keywords. Here is what you need to do to make money with youtube:

Find a local Business
The first step of making money with youtube is to find a local business. It doesn’t matter what kind of business, it could be a restaurant, car repair shop, hair salon, bar, thrift store or whatever. But, this method works best with businesses that can be best presented visually. For this guide lets assume you choose a local bar.

Make a video of the business
Go to the bar owner and tell him or her that you would make a free advertising video for the bar and upload it on YouTube, which will help him gain more business, IF he lets you shoot a short video of his bar. Most local businesses will have no problem with that. In fact they will be happy to let you advertise their business for free.
Take your camcorder and shoot a short video of the bar and what its all about. Be creative, you want to make it as interesting as possible. Maybe ask the owner about any special event they may have, like a karaoke night or free beer for ladies night or what have you and plan to shoot your video that night to capture how people are having fun and are happy and blah blah blah. Remember, you want to make people want to come to this place.
But what if you don’t have a camcorder or cant shoot a video for some reason? No worries, you can simply take a few photographs of the bar and the crowd. Capture what you can about this place in a few pictures. Keep it simple and short.
Make a slide show
Use a free tool like Animoto to turn your photos into a professional video slide show. You can also use this tool to enhance your video (if you were able to shoot video) and make it more professional. you can add music, headlines and etc. This free tool lets you crate professional looking slide shows easily. You don’t have to be a geek to work with this thing.
Important: Don’t forget to place your name, website, phone number or any other info in the beginning and at the end of the video, This is how people can find you if they want a similar video made for their business. This is how you will be making your money!
Upload your video to YouTube
Now, take your video/slide show and upload it to YouTube. After all, the question was how to make money on youtube! To get the most out of your youtube video, use rich keywords that describes the video, like local bars in Chicago, best local bar in Chicago, bar in Chicago,…
Next, write a very descriptive summary of the bar and what it is all about. Simply write a review of the bar and link to the bar’s website, twitter page, Facebook Page and etc. Most businesses have a website and a page on most big social networking sites these days. If your targeted bar doesn’t have it, you just found another opportunity to make some money, offer to create a simple website or Facebook fan page or what have you. But that requires another article. Lets focus back on what we were doing.
Build a few backlinks to your video
Just like many other money making methods that are promoted online, making money with youtube require a little bit of link building. Though, in most cases you don’t have to do much. As I said, ranking locally is pretty easy. So, your video with good keywords and description will likely rank high for its keywords. But, to be on the safe side, you can build a few backlinks to the video to help it rank higher. All you have to do is write a few articles related to bars and include a link pointing back to your video (of course with your keyword as anchor text) and submit to a few top article directories. You can also upload your video to other video sites as well.
Competitors keep an eye on each other
This is all based on one very important fact, competitors always keep an eye on each other. So, pretty soon your video will be seen by other local bars. And as any sane competitor would want to do, they would want to be the one on that video. That’s where your business info in the beginning and at the end of your video comes to play.
You have got clients
Prepare to receive calls from local bars wanting to pay you to make a video for them to help them promote their business. It really is that simple. Don’t make it complicated for yourself, Just do it. You can always add things to it and make changes here and there. You will learn as you go along. The important thing is to get started.

Remember, you don’t have to limit yourself to bars, you can use this method for any other local business, as long as you can make a video of it and put it on youtube. This is a method I used and still use myself. I work as a flooring installer offline and have my own business. I used this method myself and soon I was getting calls from other floor installers who wanted me to do the same for them (they didn’t know I was also the owner of the company being advertised in the video, lol).
Again, I just want emphasize on keeping it simple. Its all about taking action. This can be a real simple way to make money selling your online video marketing services. Now you know how to make money on Youtube.
