How to add Meta tags to Blogger Posts

2012-03-22T21:05:00.000+00:00

For this to happen, you have to add some pieces of codes to the template.
First Sign in to Blogger dashboard » Layout » Edit html
and find this line

<b:include data='blog' name='all-head-content'/>

and add this code just below that line

<b:if cond='data:blog.url == "here enter your adresse (ex: http://toearnfromnet.blogspot.com'''>
<meta content='DESCRIPTION' name='description'/>
<meta content='KEYWORDS' name='keywords'/> </b:if>

We now added meta tags to the homepage. Next, you want to add meta description for another
post, for example : http://toearnfromnet.blogspot.com/2012/03/make-money-with-youtube.html
Now, what you have to do is pasting the above three lines below the present code and
changing the link,description and keywords.
So, the final code now looks something like

<b:include data='blog' name='all-head-content'/>
<b:if cond='data:blog.url == "here enter your adresse (ex: http://toearnfromnet.blogspot.com"'>
<meta content='DESCRIPTION' name='description'/>
<meta content='KEYWORDS' name='keywords'/> </b:if>
<b:if cond='data:blog.url ==
"http://toearnfromnet.blogspot.com/2012/03/make-money-with-youtube.html"'>
<meta content='Make Money With Youtube' name='description'/>
<meta content='Make Money, Earn Money, Youtube,' name='keywords'/>
</b:if>

Just like the above procedure, you can add different meta tags to as many blog posts as you
can.
Try it out and share your experiences!

Make Money with Youtube

2012-03-18T17:27:00.000+00:00

Do you want to make money as quickly as possible?? Of course you do! who doesn't? I have recently discovered a new way to get a lot of visitors to your website. Now this way is sadly not free but much more effective than the video I have on Youtube.

It is very simple. Basically you pay Youtube channels to display your add on their video or in the description. This can be very very effective if you find a video which is uploaded by an average joe like you and me. Send him a message offering him about 10-20 bucks to add an annotation in his video where he promotes your website. Now you should choose the videos very carefully.
Here is what the video should have:

50,000 to 100,000 views
Less than one year old
No links in description
Have an growing amount of views

This is how you check if the views are rising consistantly:

Step 1:

Step 2:

If it looks like this it means that the views are growing consistantly. In other words the graph should not be flat at the end!

Here is an example on what it might be like. The video gets another 50,000 views within the next days or weeks. ONLY 1% (most likely more) clicks your link, thats 500 people. Now because they are interested in the product already, promoted to them by the annotation, you will sell your product to 5%- 10% of the people that click the link. Lets say it is 7%, and your product costs 20 dollars. That is 35 people or 700$ in other words you have made 35x the 20 dollars it costed you for the link on the Youtube video.
Leaves a profit of 680$ for almost no work!!

If you use this method with an effective landing page from your website (or blog) where promote a product or whatever you can make a huge profit!

How to make money with Viral Videos

2012-03-18T17:11:00.000+00:00

This isn’t a new method at all, but I’ve only found time recently to try it out myself. Youtube is the #2 website on the entire internet as traffic goes. This is a great method to make money quickly and easily

Here’s a quick guide on how to use Youtube to make money

Download a popular music video or viral video with a free Youtube downloader and save it in FLV format.
Convert FLV video to MPEG
Add watermarks to your videos with your website address on it promoting your Website/ Product.
Cash the checks and repeat!

Here’s a run down of how I personally do this in proper order (to make it easy and understandable for you)…

Download YouTube video and save it in FLV format
Convert FLV to MPEG
Create watermark bitmap image in Photoshop
Import MPEG to VirtualDubMOD, add BMP image to video
Export and save video as an AVI
Convert AVI to MPEG in SUPER

The watermark image should simply be text promoting your affiliate offer. I’ve had the most success promoting PPL (pay-per-lead) offers, such as ringtones, or e-mail submits. Make sure you hide your affiliate URL using a redirection service, such as TinyURL.com. It will make it easier for your viewers to remember the URL as well. If you don't have a product to promote you can use www.clickbank.com to promote products and earn up to 75% of the sales price.

Upload the video to YouTube with a descriptive title of the video. In the description , write the URL you just created and some text describing your offer. Example: “Get a Free Ringtone of this music video!”

Do this to as many videos as you can and I will guarantee that you will make money consistantly. When uploading have patience and dedication it will take a few days to get the money rollin'. Also, some videos will make more money than others.

It’s important to always follow the terms and conditions of each affiliate offer you’re promoting. Some offers restrict you from using the words, “free”, “best”, “guaranteed” etc. when promoting them. Check to make sure you aren’t violating any of these terms. It’s also best to use YouTube videos that are royalty free. Ignoring these rules and uploading a copyrighted video may get your video removed from YouTube and your account deleted. Your affiliate network account may also be terminated if a viewer reports you for promoting an offer in conjunction with a copyright violation. Play by the rules and you won’t have any problems. Your cash flow also won’t be cut off.

Bait The Search Engines

2012-03-02T23:11:00.000+00:00

All it takes to get a search engine to your website is a link from another website that has
already been indexed. The more popular the website, the quicker the search engines will
come visiting. For example, a text link on a Google PR7 website will get your site
indexed on the same day, but that one way PR7 link is going to cost you a lot.
Another way is the blog and ping method, although this has been so abused that it’s not
quite as quick as before. It does have one major advantage… You can link to every
page on your website from a blog and ping the search engines with these details. By
blogging and pinging it’s possible to get all your pages indexed quicker than with other
methods.
No matter what method you use, it takes time to get every page of your website indexed
by all the major search engines… For the most part it doesn’t happen in one or two days
like some sales hype suggests.
So your options are:

Purchase text links (which point back to your web pages) on a popular website −

A popular website will have a high Google PR.

Place a link back to your website from one of your own indexed web pages.

Learn how to start a blog and create content with links back to your website then

ping the major search engines with your blog details. Even better, get a copy of
the Instant Blog and Ping automated software and you can set it up to mimic
your manual blogging and pinging saving you hours of time every day.

Start an aggressive reciprocal linking campaign.

Three Great Ways to Make Money Online Through Google AdSense

2012-03-02T19:14:00.000+00:00

Hey, I'm sure, themost of you know what Google AdSense is all about by now. For those who don't, here's a primer: AdSense is a program that you can sign up on to allow Google to place advertising on your website. The ads are less intrusive than most other advertising programs and are often relevant to the content of the website. You earn money based on the number of visitors to your site. More visitors = more potential customers.

But, where can we put the advertisements? Here are three kinds of sites that are sure to make the most out of the program.

1. Community Websites

These include Social Networking sites such as Friendster and Myspace, as well as portals that cater to the interests of a specific community like Newgrounds. These sites tend to generate high traffic from users who drop in multiple times daily to check for updates, as well as those who publish on blogs and articles.

2. Forums

Message boards are another high-traffic kind of site. Forums like lowyat.net receive thousands of hits daily. Sometimes, forums, due to the sheer amount of information in them, develop into Community Portals. An example of this would be jiwang.org. Due to their nature, these sites tend to require more work and tending to attract membership and promote growth.

3. Niche-interest Websites

Sites that cater to the Aquarium or Gardening community are examples of this kind of website. They're usually frequented by a relatively small but loyal number of visitors.

You typically need to keep updating the site with good articles that' keyword-rich and search engine friendly to increase membership.

Take your time building your websites and Google AdSense can guarantee you a lifetime of income.

Are the Keyword in the Title Matters?

2012-03-02T18:54:00.000+00:00

This is a million dollar question of most of the bloggers. You should include a keyword in your title. It's better to put the keyword right at the beginning and all the extra words after it. because it matters a lot.

For SEO purposes on your blog you want to include your targeted keyword in the title, URL, first and last line of the copy, article tags, Headings, and sprinkled throughout the body of your blog post.

Some of my friends are arguing that Google or Yahoo....they don't have any keywords in their domain but they rule the search engines....

Forex Market

2012-03-02T18:51:00.000+00:00

Forex Market is a bit different from Stock Exchange market. In foreign Exchange Market, traders trade for currency pair, such as eur/usd, gbp/usd, usd/jpy, etc.

Unlike the stock market, the Forex Market (currency market) is a relatively new player with the investment world. Today’s current foreign exchange market model began in the early 1970′s, and today it is the largest financial market around, even surpass the stock market. With the trading partners to exceed $ 2 trillion U.S. dollars per day, the Forex market attracts more and more investors all the time. Before an investor begins trading on the forex market, he should understand the basics of their work exchange rates.

In fact, the rate is the exchange rate between two currencies. Most currencies are traded, or paired up against the dollar. The five most frequently traded currencies on the market, the dollar (USD), Euro (EUR), the Yen (JPY), the British pound (GBP) and the Swiss franc (CHF). Some other currencies are traded, the Australian dollar, the Canadian dollar and the Hong Kong dollar.

Average daily global turnover in traditional foreign exchange market transactions total $ 2.7 trillion in April 2006 after IFSL estimates based on the biannual London, New York, Tokyo and Singapore Foreign Exchange Committee data. Total revenue, including the non-traditional foreign exchange and derivatives products traded on exchanges, an average of around $ 2.9 trillion per day. This was more than ten times as large as the combined daily turnover in the whole world of stock markets. Foreign exchange trading increased by 38% between April 2005 and April 2006 and has more than doubled since 2001. This is largely due to the growing importance of foreign exchange as an asset class and an increase in fund management assets, particularly of hedge funds and pension funds. The wide choice of execution venues such as Internet trading platforms has also made it easier for retailers to trade on the foreign exchange market.

oDesk: Review

2012-03-02T18:42:00.000+00:00

Along the way to becoming a successful internet marketer, there comes a point where you can’t do everything yourself. You just have to many sites to run, or too many ppc campaigns to manage that it becomes too overwhelming for you to handle things alone. That’s where an outsourcing site like oDesk comes in. In this oDesk review, I will show you how the site works and how it will help you start scaling up your business.

To get started with oDesk, you first need to signup for a free account. Both posting jobs as an employer and getting hired as a freelancer is free on oDesk. The way they make money is to take an extra 10% off every payment. So if you have a job in mind already, you can write up a short job description and post your job on the site. Or you can search for specific providers and contact freelancers that way. Either way, it’s quite simple to find candidates for your job.

Since oDesk is such a popular site, you won’t have any problems finding a number of candidates. I recently posted a blog writing job and got over 20 proposals in 10 minutes. You can look over the proposals and “interview” candidates that look like a potential match. It’s important to interview potential candidates to make sure they understand your job. I also like to ask for samples of their work so I can get a better idea if they will work out or not.

You can choose to hire workers on oDesk at an hourly or fixed-price. One of the unique benefits of oDesk is that you don’t have to “trust” your freelancers to bill you the correct number of hours. The way they handle this, is that providers have to use a special program which will take screenshots of them working (6 per hour). If they claim to be working during a certain period of time, but they’re not, then you don’t have to pay them. This is a really nice feature that’s good for both parties involved. Your freelance workers are guaranteed their payment if they do the work they say they are doing. And you’re protected as well if they aren’t.

Once the job is completely, both you and your worker leave each other feedback ratings. Like other sites of this type, it’s important to maintain a high feedback rating so freelancers will be willing to apply for your jobs.

How to Build Your Adsense Website

2012-03-02T18:34:00.000+00:00

There is no "best way" to build a website that uses Google Adsense to earn money...
The best way in your particular circumstances can only be found by testing various
different ideas and choosing the most profitable. Obviously you need a starting point and
so here are a few ideas to get you going:

Select the best keywords and make website map
Prepare a website template
Choose content for each web page
Optimize your web pages for the search engines

Uncover Traffic Generating Keywords

2012-03-02T18:32:00.000+00:00

The key to getting your website earning money quickly is to find keywords related to your
PLR (Private Label Rights) content that people regularly type into search engines, but for
which there is not much competition.
All it takes is a bit of concerted effort using the proper tools… For the small cost of using
it, WordTracker is the most powerful keyword research tool available on the internet,
and the accurate data it produces is vital for your website’s success.
Using WordTracker you need to uncover these three important bits of information:
What keywords related to your PLR content are people typing into search
engines?

How many searches are conducted for these keywords each month?
If you are trying to get this information using free research utilities, the first thing
you are going to notice is the huge discrepancy between their search results and
WordTracker’s results. This is because the method WordTracker uses to get its
search results tends to make the information much closer to reality than the
methods the others use.

How many competing web pages for each keyword are there in Google?
Why Google?
Because nearly everybody tries to get their web pages indexed by Google so if
there’s not much competition in Google, chances are there’s going to be less
competition on any of the other search engines.

During the keyword research phase it’s a good idea to get rid of keywords which are
included within other keyword phrases. For example, let’s assume you conducted
keyword research on the topic “diamond jewelry” and among others these 3 keywords
were part of your Wordtracker results:
− Diamond
− Diamond Ring
− 3 Stone Diamond Ring

The first keyword “Diamond” is present in all three phrases, so you can delete it leaving:
− Diamond Ring
− 3 Stone Diamond Ring
The keyword “Diamond Ring” is present in both, so you can delete it leaving:
− 3 Stone diamond Ring
This is the keyword phrase for which you will create a webpage. Depending on how well
your website is ranked in the search engines, a search for any of the three phrases will
display the results for the 3 Stone Diamond Ring webpage.
Why must you do this? There are many reasons "why", but two of the most important
points to consider are:
Of the three keyword phrases there will be much less competition for “3 Stone
Diamond Ring” and you have a much better chance of getting a high search
engine ranking for a web page built around that keyword phrase.
Granted the traffic for that keyword is the lowest of the three, but optimizing your
webpage around this keyword gives you a much better chance of getting traffic
as soon as your page is indexed by the search engines.
Part of your promotion efforts should include an aggressive linking campaign,
and as soon as this kicks in you will get better rankings for the more competitive
keywords and start receiving traffic from those keywords.
i.
It’s a real pain trying to create content for two or three almost identical keywords
and unless you’re careful, the resulting pages will be far too similar for the search
engine’s liking. The programming they use to rank your website will penalize any
pages that are too similar and they will be dropped (i.e. they will never be
included in any results).

oDesk Review

2012-03-02T18:20:00.001+00:00

oDesk is a company with a global job marketplace and a series of tools targeted at businesses that intend to hire and manage remote workers. Based in Redwood City, CA, oDesk was founded in 2003 by Greek entrepreneurs Odysseas Tsatalos and Stratis Karamanlakis.

oDesk allows clients to create online workteams coordinated and paid through the company's proprietary software and website. The name is a short version of "online desk" in reference to the company's intent to enable anyone to work anywhere, anytime. Prospective clients can post jobs for free, and freelance workers (“contractors”) may create profiles and bid on jobs, also for free.The company collects 10 percent of the payment. Payments are made through oDesk, which handles many bookkeeping tasks for the transaction. In addition to the marketplace aspect and the payment/bookkeeping services, the company uses collaborative software, “oDesk Team,” that allows clients to see a provider's progress while he or she is billing time.

The company describes itself as an online workplace. As of Jan. 10, 2009, the company reports that nearly 37,000 of its 170,000 providers are in the United States. The company's site is entirely in English, and all transactions are made in U.S. dollars. The site does not post statistics regarding locations of buyer companies. In December 2009, the company's self-reported tally of services paid through its site had passed $113 million.

The specific areas of expertise supported by the site include web development and a wide variety of programming/software development skills, graphic design, writing and administrative support. The company provides voluntary skills tests in various disciplines from English aptitude to specific programming skills, and profiles include a feedback mechanism.

Ways to Make Money on the Internet

2012-03-01T17:39:00.001+00:00

There are several ways to make money online. Hopefully this article will help you decide which method is best for you.

Need Money Quickly?

Before you even read this article, please watch my video below about having the right mentality before you begin.

Too many people come to this site looking for an "easy" or "quick" way to make money and there is no such thing. So please watch this video for a reality check.

Below the video you'll find different ways you can make money on the Internet.

Become an Affiliate

This is the only way I've ever made money on the Internet and one of the most convenient. As an affiliate you refer your audience to various company websites, and when a sale is made you earn a commission.

You are the middleman (or middlewoman) so you don't have to deal with customer service, taking orders, etc. The companies you become affiliated with provide you with a tracking link to use to link to their site. That's how they track how many sales you've generated.

Almost all affiliate programs are free to join. It usually involves filling out a sign-up form and within moments the company sends you the links you need to use on your site or blog.

The key is to choose a subject you love (hobby, passion, topic, etc.) and build a content-rich, informative site or blog about it.

Here's an example. Say you love fishing. You could create a "how to" site on fishing that provides all the tips and techniques one needs to become a successful fisherman.

First you'd have to read up on SEO (search engine optimization) to learn how to get your pages ranked high in Google, Yahoo, Bing etc.

Then you'd make money by joining affiliate programs that offer fishing related products. Link to these products from your site and earn commissions when your visitors buy through your links.

For example, Clickbank has a very generous affiliate program. Many of the products there pay up to 75% in commissions. Learn more about Clickbank.

You can also earn money from programs like Google AdSense having other Webmasters advertise on your site. The possibilities are endless! Thousands of people (including myself) make a living from affiliate marketing.

Search Engine Traffic Generation Tool (a powerful one)

If you're building a money making website then free search engine traffic is an absolute must. It's the reason my sites became successful, and ultimately the reason I was able to quit my job.

Site Build It! is a great choice if you want to create a content / affiliate site that receives targeted traffic from Google, Bing-Yahoo, etc.

It's only getting tougher out here to master the search engine's algorithms, and many people are doing it wrong as they sit and wonder why they can't find their site in the results.

Cheaper hosts will save you money, but they aren't in the business of educating you on how to create a search engine optimized website.

SBI! comes with a Brainstorm It! tool that will help you research proftable niches and choose the right keywords to target.

I bought it to see if the hype over SBI! was worth it. After 11 months, my other website, www.flat-stomach-exercises.com, earned $700 per month in Adsense income alone, and 90% the traffic comes from Google.

Of course, this was 2005 and things have changed. Nevertheless, their system is still one of the best out here. This site still earns a nice passive income today.

Keyword Research

One component of ranking well in the search engines is proper keyword research. It's all about finding less competitive phrases so you can optimize your search engine traffic.

Getting Indexed into Bing and Yahoo

Bing and Yahoo are now search alliances. In other words, Yahoo search has a Bing-powered backend. So once you setup a Webmaster Tools account and create a sitemap for Bing, you're covered for Yahoo as well.

Just like Google, Bing-Yahoo takes quality inbound links into account.

Less than 1% of my search engine traffic comes from Bing-Yahoo. I mainly focus my efforts on Google these days.
