Green Cash From Green Gas

We live in an age where times are changing very quickly. The concept of “going green” has taken a new priority in every aspect of industry and lifestyle. The targeting of internet marketing strategies to this new wave of industry has been powerful and yet still in it’s infancy. With the world now focusing on terms such as “carbon footprint”, “eco-friendly”, “auto emissions”, “fuel efficiency”, “fuel economy”, “alternate fuels”, etc., new businesses and business opportunities are rising up to meet the challenge. Finding the right home based business opportunity so a person can work from home, or make money online, can sometimes prove to be challenging. Some people seek home business opportunities through online marketing sources, others through word of mouth. The biggest challenge for many is identifying an opportunity that’s credible; that will put money in their pocket right away; and not cost a huge dollar up front to get started in. Once the right business opportunity is found, scores of individuals become hungry for the latest internet marketing strategies, and do so while embracing the learning curve that goes along with starting a new home based business venture.

So what kind of eco-friendly opportunity would be so attractive, would show so much potential, it would actually make a person want to leave a corporate America position? Now let’s be clear about this. Not just leave a corporate America position, but leave from a sector of corporate America that’s use to reviewing and assessing other people’s business plans and business proposals.

Recently, through professional networking on MySpace.com, I had the opportunity to meet and get to know, such a person, Jill Cobb from the State of California. During the course of our written and phone discussions, I began to learn in greater detail her incredible story. The following is an excerpt from an interview with this incredible individual.

Jill perhaps you could begin by telling us a bit about who you are, your background, and what you’re doing now?

I’ve been active in the financial services industry for 30 years in banking, real estate and as a Certified Financial Planner. A friend told me I should try a product she was selling called the Bio Petro Improver, and honestly, to support my friend’s business, I gave it a try. Wow, was I surprised!! After using it for 2 fill ups, my gas mileage improved 20 percent!! With the ever rising HIGH price of gas…and increasing toxic emissions in our air, I decided to become an Area Manager and Distributor for Bio Petro Improver. The response has been so exciting, I have scaled back my financial business, and now I’m focusing most of my time helping others improve their gas mileage as well as their cash flow with this product!

It’s so difficult for families these days to live comfortably on a budget. I feel I can impact the lives of so many people who are struggling to make ends meet. A 20-30 percent reduction in gas expenses is a HUGE savings!! So many households have 1 or 2 commuters that travel hundreds of miles per week! They can use their savings on fuel costs for groceries, clothing and necessary home expenses. For anyone who drives 50 miles each way to work they could save over $900 USD per year when the gas prices at the pump are around $3.00 per gallon!! Think about the savings when gas prices are higher…like they are in Canada and many other countries!!!

As a Baby Boomer, I’m wanting to retire early … thanks to BPI, Worldwide!! I want to spend more time with my 2 grand kids Emily and Ryan, and take them on some amazing vacations!! They are 10 and 6 and I’m looking forward to showing them some of the most wonderful historical locations in the world.

As we talked, and when you eventually mailed me material about your business, I became really excited about the potential for this business especially here in North America. Perhaps you could explain a little bit about the product and exactly what it does? How would it benefit a person such as myself financially, and how would it benefit the world I live in?

BPI, Worldwide is a great home based business opportunity, or business opportunity period! It’s also a FUN business. Everyone wants to save money on gas and everyone who tries it thinks I am a HERO!! It’s allowed me to be able to travel and visit friends and family that I haven’t seen in years!!

The product is all natural, biodegradable and it’s been proven to increase gas mileage as well as reduce toxic emissions!

The fuel enhancer significantly impacts the lives of everyone-worldwide that uses an internal combustion engine!! That includes trucks, cars, buses, planes, boats, lawnmowers, RVs, dune buggies, motorcycles, snow mobiles, water craft… and on and on..!!

A consumer can save from 15-30 percent on the money they currently spend on gas. Fuel costs have become a major expense for most of us, so this will benefit our cash flow IMMEDIATELY!

So, the benefits are really significant. We can all save at the tank, improve harmful emissions, and, for those interested in a business opportunity, they can become a Distributor for BPI Worldwide and create a significant residual income!!!

The retail cost of a 50 gram jar of Bio Petro Improver is $25 US. That treats approximately 200 gallons of gas or diesel fuel. A consumer only uses 1 teaspoon (or 2 Bio Pills) for every 15 U.S. gallon gas tank or 10 U.S. gallon diesel tank.

It’s my understanding this product has met with some opposition from the oil industry. As a result when it comes to testing this product, it’s really been put through “all the hoops” so to speak. What kind of testing has been done, that you’re aware of, and what results came from those tests?

First off, you’re right! There was some opposition to this product.

BPI was first introduced to US Consumers in the 2006 as a network marketing business opportunity. Over $20 million dollars of product was sold in a very few months. The excitement was tremendous. This got the immediate attention of the Texas oil industry. There were several offers to buy BPI, but all offers were rejected. The founders of the BPI set up this company specifically as a networking program so anyone willing to share this program with others could create substantial residual income.

Oil companies approached the Texas authorities alleging the Bio Product didn’t work and BPI Worldwide was nothing less than a scam. The entire company was temporarily shut down pending an investigation of the product, and while the course of the investigation was underway all the personal and business assets of the founders were seized.

After a lengthy court ordeal, the Texas Court system Ordered an independent Environmental Protection Agency recognized testing lab evaluate Bio Petro Improver to determine its effectiveness. The Wallace Lab used the strictest EPA, HFET (Highway Fuel Economy Test) and CARB (California Air Resource Board) assessment protocols. They determined that “this product causes a real improvement in fuel economy and a reduction in emissions.”

The fuel enhancer proved to be a safe, effective product. The lawsuit was dismissed and BPI, Worldwide re-launched in June 2007!! Since that time, there have been numerous independent lab tests which have also verified the high quality performance of this product.

I’m not sure what the current fuel prices are in California, but here in Canada, we’re on the metric system and we buy our fuel by the litre, not by the gallon. There are approximately 3.7855 litres to an American gallon and we are paying $1.189 per litre for regular grade fuel (we are being told that price will climb to $1.509 per litre by July 2008). Today we are paying just over $4.50 U.S.D. for the equivalent of an American gallon. You’re business is in the process of soon coming into Canada, and the potential financial savings for people if they use your product is staggering. Right now, a 20% savings in fuel would mean reducing the cost of our fuel to approximately $.9512 a litre. That’s an immediate savings of $.2378 per litre of fuel, or $13.50 for every equal amount of 15 U.S. gallons of fuel. Incredible! What is the growth potential for your business, and at this time, is this only available in the United States?

Recently, BPI Worldwide has opened in Mexico as a business program. A Canada “Grand Opening” is soon to occur. The Bio Petro Improver is NOW available for purchase world wide, and people can find access to the product through the website www.4MaxMPG.com .

In anticipation of expanding into Canada as well as 192 other countries, BPI has enhanced the website to show many flags at the top right of the site. Anyone can click on their country’s flag and see a Bio Petro video and all the company and product information in their native language! It’s available for anyone with internet access to research our company, review the testing results as well as the Binary Compensation Plan.

It is my goal to find some new, fun business partners who see how powerful this Company and this Product is. With our international growth, I am ready to visit Mexico, Canada, Great Britain, Australia, France, Italy, etc with my Business Buddies to share this program and be an International HERO!!

This really has the ability to be a great home based business opportunity for people to get involved in. If people wanted to contact you to find out where they can buy this product or how they can get involved in this as a business, is there a web site they should go to, or another way they could contact you?

The growth potential of this business is staggering!!

All the citizens of Our Planet desperately need a superior, proven, inexpensive “green” product that can improve their gas mileage.

We all desperately need and want to improve the air we breathe and preserve our atmosphere for future generations.

Individuals and businesses worldwide are begging for products they can use to Save Our Planet.

The Bio Petro Improver provides us the product and the business program to impact our environment and our financial well being.

People who may have questions or want more information about this incredible product and opportunity can always contact me at www.4MaxMPG.com or jill@4maxmpg.com If I don’t have the answers, I will get the information!! Together, we can spread the word about this fabulous gas enhancer and create a substantial residual income!!

Jill Cobb is an exciting individual to get to know. She is a glowing example of a true home based entrepreneur, but more important she is a quality person.

Great home based business opportunities, and small business opportunities do abound for people who want to find them. These are exciting days for “Green” focused products which provide real cost savings for people in the process.

Grab hold of the excellence life has to offer.

Increasing Link Popularity

With the economy woes of the United States now plummeting into a recessionary position, many home based internet business entrepreneurs are paying close attention to the ways and means of making money online, so as to keep their business in the forefront of their customer’s eye. The good news is, that while the United States economy is slow, it’s neighbor to the north, Canada, is experiencing an incredible boom, economically speaking. Several aspects of the Canadian economy have been impacted by the U.S. slowdown, but where one sector slows down, the hot demand in other Canadian industrial sectors continues to gobble up workers faster than they are being displaced. Canada’s challenge is a drastic shortage of workers. For those wanting to make money online, the reality is, where one market may be going through a downturn, there are always those other markets which are doing well. The beauty of the an internet business opportunity is, your customer base is global, not restricted geographically to your immediate locality, unless you of course choose to limit yourself in such a way. Let me give you an example of the typical internet consumer. I am a Canadian, and 60 percent of my purchases are made online to companies that are located outside of Canada, companies that are well outside my economic, as well as geographic region.

Internet marketing when done correctly, provides a blanket which helps businesses ride out the gut wrenching twists and turns of economic shifts. There will be noticeable cycles in internet marketing, but usually, the causes and effects related to those cycles are more directly connected to your marketing plan, advertising campaign, website optimization, and product selection procedures.

Today’s feature article is speaking to a key area of importance in helping to optimize your website in the eyes of search engines. The article pertains to increasing your website’s link popularity. For some time search engines have looked closely at the number and quality of reciprocal links on websites. A reciprocal link is a link on your page which points to another page, which in turn has a link that points back to your page. While this is a highly effective way to increase your popularity in the eyes of search engines, it’s a process that must be done right, or it can work against you. Take a few minutes and enjoy this weeks feature article “Increasing Link Popularity”.




===================================================
Increasing Link Popularity
===================================================




Search engines are the gateway to the Internet; they are the first tool that potential customers use to find the products and services they need. This is why link popularity is so imperative. If the customers do not find your website, you have no possibilities of making any sales.

You're probably wondering what the blazes is popular about a link! Well, in a word - plenty! Link popularity refers to the ranking assigned to your website by the search engines, and it determines the ranking your page gets when keywords are entered into a search engine. So, you're probably wondering, how do I make my link popular?

Search engines are discretionary, giving status and ranking to sites that have links to their pages from related, quality sites. It's a simple formula, but a very important one. Google created the system, and now virtually all the most popular search engines employ it to rank your web pages in their indexes.

The more commonly used your keyword is, the harder it will be to achieve link popularity, but without achieving this step, it is almost certain your site will never rank highly on any search engine. But don't be discouraged; there are tried and true ways of achieving link popularity using the most competitive keywords.


There are a few things you should be aware of. The first is that just linking up with a large number of other websites will not achieve link popularity. In fact, it may have quite the opposite effect. This is particularly true when pertaining to websites that are nothing more than "link farms" - pages containing line after line of indiscriminate links. Search engines may aggressively discriminate against your website if you are associated with a link farm, so steer clear of them!

The next thing to bear in mind is the quality of the site you are linking to. Never link to a page you have reservations about your visitors seeing. The last thing you want your website to appear as is indiscriminate and cheap. Linking to sites of poor quality will only lessen your link popularity, if not completely destroy it.

So let's get to what you need to do to achieve supreme link popularity and improve your rankings to stellar status on all the popular search engines.

The first step, and the fastest way to get your foot in the door, is to get a listing in a popular directory, such as Open Directory Project and Yahoo. If your site is business-related, you will want to be listed on Yahoo, and despite the fact that it will cost you around $300 a year, it will be money well spent. If your site is non-commercial, the listing will be free, but it will take time and follow-up to actually get it listed. Open Directory is gives you a free listing whether you are business-related or non-commercial, but be prepared to make a lot of follow-up inquiries before you see your site listed.




You are aiming to get listed in the highest level of appropriate category, and this just takes some common sense. For example, if your company ships Alpaca wool from an Alpaca farm located in the middle of Nowhere, Tiny State, do NOT submit your listing to "Retailers from Nowhere, Tiny State." BIG MISTAKE! All you have to do is look a little deeper - and submit your listing to the "Fine Alpaca Wool" category. You will not only associate yourself with culture and quality, but you will be listed in a national category.

The next step after you have attained directory listings is to locate other quality sites that will increase your link popularity. Try to find sites that are in some way related to yours, so not only will your link popularity increase, but your customer base may also be expanded. You want to avoid your competitors and look for sites that are useful to your site's visitors. Let's look at the Alpaca Wool site example. Linking up to a site that sells knitting supplies would be helpful to your visitors, and the chances of the knitting supply site wanting to link up to your site are
also greater. By linking to a related site that will be relevant to your website's traffic, you are increasing both of your site's business prospects - and both of your sites' link popularity.

Not all sites want to link to other sites, so you will have to do some research when you are looking for possible linking partners. Google is an excellent starting place for your search. Make sure you enter keywords that you think quality customers will also enter to find your own site.
Remember, your criteria are quality, highly ranked, non-competing websites that have a links or resources page. Go to these sites and objectively assess them. Look at the quality of the product, the graphics, and the ease of use. Then check out the other sites they are linked to, and determine if your own site would fit in with the crowd.

When you decide you have found a good prospect, you must set out to woo them. The first thing to do is to add a link on your own links page to their site. This is an essential first step; it shows good faith, and ups your chances significantly of their reciprocity. After you have added their link, you must contact the webmaster of their site. Since this is almost always done by email, you want to make sure it is immediately clear that your message is not junk mail. This requires that you tell them right off the bat that you have added a link to their page on your site. A hook like this almost always insures the reader will read on.





Next, be sure to be flattering and let them know how much you appreciate their website. Make sure you emphasize that you have actually visited their site, and that their site is not just a random pick. Give them the address of your links page, and ask them to check out the link for
themselves. It's a good idea to mention that they will not only benefit from the increased traffic your website will direct their way, but you will also increase their link popularity. Briefly, explain why link popularity is so essential, but do this in a sentence or two so you don't sound like a professor! Finally, tell them you would greatly appreciate if they would reciprocally add a link on their own links page to your website.

Go through this process with as many appropriate sites as you can find, bearing in mind the criteria of quality and non-competitiveness. After you have emailed all relevant sites, be sure to check these website frequently to see if they have added a link to your page. Give it about a month, and if no link appears, try another charming email. Then give it another month, and if your site is still absent from their links page, it's time to remove their link from your own links page. The only time you want to pursue a link further than this is if you believe a site is crucial
to your link popularity and your business needs. Just remember to keep all your communications complimentary and cordial.

Then set up a schedule to check your ranking in search engines frequently to see if your link popularity has improved. This is not achievable in the blink of an eye. It will take some time and a good deal of work. There is no way around the labor-intensive quality of improving your
link popularity, which is why search engines regard it with such importance.

By the way - make sure you have a beautiful, streamlined site or you will never persuade anyone to link up to you. Be prepared to keep plugging away at this process, as long as it takes, until you achieve link popularity stardom!

===================================================
Analyzing Website Traffic
===================================================

Analyzing your web traffic statistics can be an invaluable
tool for a number of different reasons. But before you can
make full use of this tool, you need to understand how to
interpret the data.

Most web hosting companies will provide you with basic web
traffic information that you then have to interpret and
make pertinent use of. However, the data you receive from
your host company can be overwhelming if you don't
understand how to apply it to your particular business and
website. Let's start by examining the most basic data - the
average visitors to your site on a daily, weekly, and
monthly basis.

These figures are the most accurate measure of your
website's activity. It would appear on the surface that the
more traffic you see recorded, the better you can assume
your website is doing, but this is an inaccurate
perception. You must also look at the behavior of your
visitors once they come to your website to accurately gauge
the effectiveness of your site.

There is often a great misconception about what is commonly
known as "hits" and what is really effective, quality
traffic to your site. Hits simply means the number of
information requests received by the server. If you think
about the fact that a hit can simply equate to the number
of graphics per page, you will get an idea of how overblown
the concept of hits can be. For example, if your homepage
has 15 graphics on it, the server records this as 15 hits,
when in reality we are talking about a single visitor
checking out a single page on your site. As you can see,
hits are not useful in analyzing your website traffic.

The more visitors that come to your website, the more
accurate your interpretation will become. The greater the
traffic is to your website, the more precise your analysis
will be of overall trends in visitor behavior. The smaller
the number of visitors, the more a few anomalous visitors
can distort the analysis.

The aim is to use the web traffic statistics to figure out
how well or how poorly your site is working for your
visitors. One way to determine this is to find out how long
on average your visitors spend on your site. If the time
spent is relatively brief, it usually indicates an
underlying problem. Then the challenge is to figure out
what that problem is.

It could be that your keywords are directing the wrong type
of visitors to your website, or that your graphics are
confusing or intimidating, causing the visitor to exit
rapidly. Use the knowledge of how much time visitors are
spending on your site to pinpoint specific problems, and
after you fix those problems, continue to use time spent as
a gauge of how effective your fix has been.

Additionally, web traffic stats can help you determine
effective and ineffective areas of your website. If you
have a page that you believe is important, but visitors are
exiting it rapidly, that page needs attention. You could,
for example, consider improving the link to this page by
making the link more noticeable and enticing, or you could
improve the look of the page or the ease that your visitors
can access the necessary information on that page.

If, on the other hand, you notice that visitors are
spending a lot of time on pages that you think are less
important, you might consider moving some of your sales
copy and marketing focus to that particular page.

As you can see, these statistics will reveal vital
information about the effectiveness of individual pages,
and visitor habits and motivation. This is essential
information to any successful Internet marketing campaign.

Your website undoubtedly has exit pages, such as a final
order or contact form. This is a page you can expect your
visitor to exit rapidly. However, not every visitor to your
site is going to find exactly what he or she is looking
for, so statistics may show you a number of different exit
pages. This is normal unless you notice a exit trend on a
particular page that is not intended as an exit page. In
the case that a significant percentage of visitors are
exiting your website on a page not designed for that
purpose, you must closely examine that particular page to
discern what the problem is. Once you pinpoint potential
weaknesses on that page, minor modifications in content or
graphic may have a significant impact on the keeping
visitors moving through your site instead of exiting at the
wrong page.

After you have analyzed your visitor statistics, it's time
to turn to your keywords and phrases. Notice if particular
keywords are directing a specific type of visitor to your
site. The more targeted the visitor - meaning that they
find what they are looking for on your site, and even
better, fill out your contact form or make a purchase - the
more valuable that keyword is.

However, if you find a large number of visitors are being
directed - or should I say misdirected - to your site by a
particular keyword or phrase, that keyword demands
adjustment. Keywords are vital to bringing quality visitors
to your site who are ready to do business with you. Close
analysis of the keywords your visitors are using to find
your site will give you a vital understanding of your
visitor's needs and motivations.

Finally, if you notice that users are finding your website
by typing in your company name, break open the champagne!
It means you have achieved a significant level of brand
recognition, and this is a sure sign of burgeoning success.

Who Will Be Reading Your Sales Copy?

Those who are self-employed through a home based business opportunity, or through an internet home based marketing business, all know and understand the challenges they face when having to write sales copy. No matter if you are an affiliate marketer, an individual who is involved in some other form of internet marketing, or trying to figure out how to make money online, writing and reading sales copy is a very real part of our every day world.

You’ve just arrived at the office and the your manager informs you, in one hour you are to present a 2 minute presentation as to why you should become the company’s next regional manager. In 250 words or less, your career can blossom or stalemate, and you have one hour to pull it all together.

Creating effective sales copy isn’t too different from presenting an effective speech.

First you have to attract your reader. Then as if you were fishing, while they play with the bait on the hook, keep them entertained long enough, so you can “set the hook” in their mouth. In order to do that, you have to know who you are writing to.

When you begin to create sales copy that’s targeted to a particular demographic, there’s several things you have to keep in mind as you write.

1. The age of your reader. Are you writing to a high school student mentality, a young professional, or a retiree?

2. Male or Female.

3. Ethnic Background. Are you targeting a specific ethnic group or a mixed group?

4. Education level.

5. Income level.

6. Cultural Background. Are you addressing blue collar, white collar, pink collar, or dog collar and spiked hair groups?

7. Political beliefs. Are you targeting those who would consider themselves to be liberal in their political thinking or more to the right or left?

8. Degree of Familiarity. Are you addressing a list of regular subscribers with whom you already have a reputation established?

9. Peers, subordinates, or superiors. Are you addressing a targeted group of equals, those you would place above you, or those who you would consider to be in training under you?

10. Expertise. Are you addressing a targeted group that’s already well informed on your subject matter?

Today’s sales copy writer must get to the point quickly with out insulting the intelligence of his reader. The writer must reinforce their opinion with facts, and stick to a single topic.

Writer’s must also amuse while they inform, but be very careful when using humor. What’s funny to the writer, or a handful of others, can be immature, offensive, boring, tacky, to those who have the money to spend on your product. It’s better to be slightly cute in your sales copy writing style, than to try and accomplish the levels of a stand up comic.

Building Strategies Through Site Traffic Statistics

Visit our home page by CLICKING HERE .
_________________________


Some of the beginner individuals who go the route of posting the “What You See Is What You Get” style of web page often fail to realize the importance of monitoring web site statistics.

I am one of those people who has learned the processes as I have had to move forward, but through the process, a critical part of my daily ritual has been logging in to read the traffic statistics for my web page and my blogs from the day before. In fact, this is the first thing I do each day after my computer is turned on.

Most web site hosting services provide some form of traffic monitoring platform, but not every blog service does. For this I have come to rely upon FeedBurner.com.

FeedBurner which is owned by Google has two levels of service. There is a free level of service which is most adequate for my needs, and for those who require that extra punch, there’s FeedBurner Pro.

Feedburner provides my blog with an excellent platform for RSS Feed services, but it also provides an excellent counter which tracks the number of people who subscribe to your RSS Feed as well as the number of people who view your blog. While I have posted a FeedBurner counter on my blog page, I have found the accuracy of the counter is somewhat off when compared to the counts collected I can view when I log into my FeedBurner account back office. The FeedBurner counter does not take into consideration past traffic and cannot be set at a starting point based on an old traffic counter setting. The FeedBurner back office counter is most often much higher than the counter that appears on the page and provides incredible detail as to when the page was viewed, by what style of browser, and the IP address. In fact, I have observed the publicly viewed counter showing a high figure on one day and a lesser figure on the next day. If having a less boastful count on the publicly viewable counter is the trade off to access this information then it’s still worth it.

A feature I love about FeedBurner which sets it apart from many other statistical collectors, is FeedBurner provides up to date information by the hour, whereas most others only provide information for the day before.

Setting an internet marketing strategy requires knowing who is viewing your site, how often, what are the trends, are there patterns, and if so, can a person identify what’s behind those patterns? Every time you post a change to your web page, are you seeing a change in your traffic? Is it creating a positive or negative impact?

Take that power and combine it with Google’s Webmaster Tools to identify when your page was last crawled by a “Spider”, and quickly you can get a feel as to whether or not the reaction you think you are seeing is a search engine reaction or a viewer reaction.

In any day and age, knowledge is power. The best strategy is to find the easiest way to collect it and then understand how to read it. FeedBurner.com, combined with Google’s Webmaster Tools is an excellent place to start.

Adjust Your Marketing Strategy With Click2Sell

Visit our Home Web Site By CLICKING HERE.

_______________________

Many people who are interested in starting a home based internet business will turn to the very profitable field of affiliate marketing. Scores of individuals are familiar with the merchant source called ClickBank, but some people, in trying to seek out a new internet marketing strategy want to know about alternative sources for products, supplies and services to offer their customers.

Perhaps you've heard about Click2Sell. It's a fairly new merchant marketplace which has lined itself up as a direct competitor to Clickbank.

Testing Your Website Response

In the affiliate income business, it's faster and easier to create 10 simple sites that each make $500/month, than it is to make one site that makes $5,000/month.

This is known as... "multiple streams of income".

__________________________________________________

"Making a six figure income from passive, hands-off affiliate marketing isn't as hard as you think. Here's exactly how I do it step-by-step..."

__________________________________________________

All the successful online entrepreneurs have multiple sites. In fact, some have as many as 50 to 100 websites working for them all the time.

=================================
TEST AND RESPOND AS FAST AS YOU CAN
=================================

The key to good web site is testing. You must be able to quickly build your sites and then test different elements to see how they perform against each other. Which headline gets better results? Which offer converts better? And so on.

It needs to be as easy as possible to set up and keep track of all your tests and results. You must become comfortable with tracking your site statistics on a daily basis to monitor and determine how even small changes are impacting the coverage your site is receiving.

In minutes, you can make one or two changes to a site and put it back online to perform against the previous version of the site, then monitor it the next day for reactions as long as your changes do not impact the accuracy of your meta tags.

You'll know within hours how the new element performed and whether to keep it on the page.

The next day, you simply repeat this process until each of your sites is maximized and performing at its best.

Those who want to make money online through online marketing come to understand there are basic understandings in the world of home based internet businesses. One of those being, there's no money to be made in learning about the technology end of the internet, but it is a necessity of the business.

All the revenue, or money is made in internet marketing and online selling, or as a result of effective flow of TRAFFIC which results in CONVERSIONS.

There are two types of products you can promote online:

1. Physical products like golf clubs, cars, jewerly, etc.

2. Digital information products like ebooks, reports, MP3 audio files, online video packages, and software programs.

While they are both viable income sources, physical products pose a series of challenges compared to their digital counterparts.

Specifically, they need to be manufactured, inventoried, and finally shipped to the buyer when the purchase is made.

Depending on the product, this can result in significant expenses that must be incurred by the seller and passed on to the buyer. It also requires a storage facility, and the personnel to handle the packaging and shipping.

On the other hand, digital products (often referred to as "information products") don't have to be manufactured
and warehoused. They simply sit on a hard disc and are duplicated on demand.

Digital products can be sent anywhere in the world via the Internet, instead of by plane or truck, for only a few pennies.
Digital products also have much higher profit margins.

Best of ALL, the entire process selling, collecting and shipping digital products can all be handled by computers and hence... AUTOMATED. Thereby creating "money machines."

As a result, the best products to focus on if you are going online to make money are information products.

However, if you are interested in selling physical products, eBAY is the best place to start, and accounts can be established with wholesale product suppliers through Clickbank.com.

Requirements For Submitting Articles For Publishing Online

_____________________________________

“Discover a proven step by step formula to create profitable blogs that automatically siphon dollars from multiple sources, even if you’re a complete novice...”
_____________________________________

There is always big demand for content rich articles. Many people struggle with understanding the process of submitting an article to a publisher for approval.

There is no guarantee a publisher will accept or approve an article. Rejection is very common in the writing industry. Each publisher will have their own guidelines for author's to abide by.

The process is usually slow. The article is submitted for review. It may take as long as four weeks for an editor to get around to review your article. Once reviewed, your article is approved or rejected. If rejected, you may receive an email explaining why, inviting you to make corrections before you're allowed to re-submit your article back to that same publisher.

Most prolific writers submit to more than one publisher. Because your signature line, or signature box will contain a link to your web-site, it's important to identify publishers with high Google and low Alexa page rankings.

When preparing to submit an article for submission to a collection of publishers, there's a certain amount of information I have to collect together in advance.

Article Title. It pays to do a Google search on any title you want to use to determine how much it's already in use.

Article Sub-title. I have never used this personally, and usually leave it blank when requested.

Article Category. Many publishers will ask for this separately. It's best to do this individually with publishers as category titles may vary.

Author's Name. Your legal name should be used. Most publishers will have a separate location for you to enter a "writer's fictitious pen name".

Email Address. This would be an email address to reach the author. It's best to provide a general email box, not a private email box.

Article Url. Every article I publish is first posted to a blog which I create specifically for the article. I use Google's Blogger.com for this purpose. This requires setting up a Gmail email account first, then the blogger blog site for the article. By doing this, the article is first published by the writer, and it is posted on the internet by Google, showing the date it was published. The article is also immediately put in line to be indexed by Google's spiders.

Article Email. This is where I'll use the gmail email address for the article blog URL.

Bio Info. In 250 characters or less, provide a description about the author including the author's name, website address in full (http://www.********.com), and what the author or website is about.

Resource Box. If you quoted any materials or person's in your article and are required to identify the source of the information in a footnote format, this is where you would place this information.

Resource Box HTML Version. The resource box information is repeated here. If there's no HTML involved, I simply leave this blank.

Keywords. This is a critical section. Take your time to select twenty-five keywords from your article which will help search engines target your article.

Description. In 175 characters or less, create a keyword rich description of your article.

Description HTML Version. In this section, if requested, I do a simple cut and paste of the content from my description box.

Article Body. This is the body of the article. It does not include the title, but make sure it includes your copyright line as well as your signature box at the bottom. Many writers assume the contents from the Bio section will automatically be entered at the bottom of an article. This is not always the case, and your article can be published unprotected. Make a concentrated point of including this information in your article body text. Your website link if listed in full will hyperlink automatically with most publishers. Some will ask you to indicate if you want it hyperlinked. If they do, answer "Yes".

Article HTML Body. I cut and paste my entire article body into this section. Some publishers will automatically strip out any HTML code from article bodies. I no longer place HTML code in my article bodies due to this, but as long as my website addresses are written in full, they do end up hyperlinked.

The easiest way to submit articles is to locate a software package where by you can in put this information once, then submit it to publishers by simply clicking a button.

Once submitted, it's still a waiting game, without any guarantees.

Write on!

The Big Shift To Make Money Online Through Internet Marketing Is Happening

Many people continue in their search for ways to make money online. There is hot demand for the latest internet marketing strategy, as people are building a home internet business. Why? No one wants to fail! Internet marketing strategies are an important part of any business success, especially in the industry of affiliate marketing.

Perhaps you've heard of the term Web 2.0? It's nothing new. In fact, it's already out dated by what's now known as Web 3.0, but for most people Web 2.0 is still very active and will continue to be very active for many years to come, as it is still in it's childhood as far as growth. You may recognize it better if I were to use the terms MySpace, YouTube, or online social networking.

Web 2.0 has become a gold mine for people interested in building an online income. Through affiliate marketing programs kids in college have been making serious money using sites such as MySpace, YouTube, or Facebook. The challenge for them is staying in school when they see how much they can make spending very little time on the computer. One student was earning $5200.00 plus every couple of weeks, and investing only a couple of hours a day, when he was able, into his computer business. It was perfect to accommodate around his class schedule.

The important strategy for anyone starting out in the world of internet marketing or social marketing, is to get their hands on a program which provides them with a good solid transferable blueprint. A transferable blueprint is a business plan which enables them to build an internet business based on promoting any affiliate type business or product. Some programs will restrict you to promote their product or their business, and that ties your hands as well as limits you.

While I continue to review many programs, to date I really enjoy the program Ewen Chia has put together. It's simple, extremely affordable (At the price it was being offered at, I found it to be the lowest priced program around), easy to understand, and it works with lightning speed. I put this program to the test, and not only did it pay for itself, but it turned a profit within the first 24 hours, without the use of my own web page. I have yet to see any other program perform so well.

This is truly a lazy way to make money online!

This turnkey money machine prints 24/7 profits for you...automatically!

Upon my having completed a review of this product. It is my opinion, anyone can make money with this program.

Let’s face it...it’s happening. During the course of this week CitiGroup wrote off 18.1 billion dollars of customer debt. Today, a financial forecast has crossed my desk predicting Oil will now hit $200.00 a barrel.

People are losing their homes, losing their jobs, and losing their savings.

Everywhere you look, there are signs that we are about to enter a massive recession unlike anything experienced in the last 30 to 40 years, and things are only going to get worse.

The solution? Right now, people need to start creating sources of income that continue to pour in, even in the worst of times.

Do you realize that every wealthy person has at least one common point? They all have multiple streams of income. Their income doesn’t come in the form of one large pay check every two weeks, but several smaller checks from several sources. The concept is referred to as multiple streams of income. The safety of this lifestyle is if one source dries up, the other sources continue to provide until the original lost source of income can be rejuvenated or replaced.

At present, most people are use to the concept of working at a traditional job. Knowing where or how to go about locating a source of a new stream of income can be a bit mind boggling. Today, there is no bigger gold mine than that of the internet. The home based internet business opportunity has become so simplified, in some cases, it’s been dubbed a business in a box. Many people seek out an opportunity to make money online. Internet marketing continues to provide excellent incomes to those who’s skill levels are definable as “novice”. The most common area of marketing being affiliate marketing.

While some people will argue and say there’s no money to be made in affiliate marketing, clearly they haven’t tried it; or haven’t done it correctly; are confusing it with other types of home based businesses such as multi-level marketing businesses; or have done so well they don’t want others getting a percentage of the market share. According to Wickipedia, total sales generated through affiliate networks in 2006 was 2.16 billion British pounds. MarketingSherpa’s research team estimated that, in 2006, affiliates earned $6.5 billion in commissions.

Currently there are THOUSANDS of merchants with affiliates programs. Among them are companies such as Apple Computers, Barnes & Noble, Corel software, Dell, Kodak, Discover Card, Symantec software, Dollar Rent-a-Car, Vonage, eBay, Yahoo, Eddie Bauer, Westin Hotels and Resorts, Gateway, Best Western, Skype, Hewlett Packard, Carnival Cruises, Gap, Marriott, Kmart, Sheraton Hotels and Resorts, GoDaddy Web Hosting, Match.com, New York Times, NBC, Old Navy, PayLess Shoes, PetSmart, SONY, Sports Authority, Staples, TimeLife, USA Today, Verizon Wireless, Weight Watchers, as well as Amazon.com, among many, many others.

MANY companies URGENTLY want people like YOU to promote their products!

Any company trying to do business today on the web WITHOUT an affiliate program is like a ship running at half speed. They all need affiliates to maximize their exposure, and customer traffic to their products.

Affiliate marketing isn’t difficult to do. It doesn’t take experience. It doesn’t require a web page, although a web page will help increase your percentage of profits. Many will simply start with free blogs. It doesn’t cost a lot of money. If done right, a person could be up and running for about the same amount of money they’d spend on an evening out on the town.

The key in identifying a good affiliate marketing program is to first identify one that gives you the option as to whether or not you need to buy a web page. This helps keep your initial cost down. Secondly, you want to find a program that’s transferable. Meaning, it’s designed to work for any type of company or product, not just the one you purchase the program from. Seek out a program that’s more of a blueprint than an established business. From a business you can create numerous streams of income very quickly representing many different companies.

Ewen Chia recently made $549,784.82 in one year from affiliate marketing. His story is typical. Ewen has taken the time to create a program which has enabled him to be successful while his business runs on autopilot 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Ewen’s program has worked so well, he’s taken the time to put it into a manual format for people to duplicate. It’s a step by step guide on how to build a home internet business correctly. Ewen’s program outlines practical easy to understand internet marketing strategies; how to make money online; different ways to make money online; and opens your eyes in a new way to the home based internet market business. It’s a must have for anyone looking for a new internet marketing strategy.

PROOF! $549,784.82 In Autopilot Profits!
