Hello! Anybody out there? Well, now that I’m back from my holiday, I’m trying to get back on track with these postings! What were we talking about? We went over choosing keywords and topics, and where to host your websites. Also talked about one place where you can design a basic website for free, and where to get photos for your website. You’ve signed up for Adsense (good for you) and hopefully have a site ready to go! You’re going to want to build a few of these sites, since there’s no... Read Full Story

Have I mentioned domainsbot.com yet? Or eurodns.com ? I don’t think I have. These are great websites for brainstorming. Domainsbot I like, because you can type in one domain name, and it will give you a ton of suggestions. You can filter them, and say what words you do or don’t want to include. I have to say, it’s not that great with hyphenated websites. I would turn to eurodns for that. I like to use eurodns for bulk searches. If I have a lot of domain name ideas, I can type them all in at... Read Full Story

Wow, the weather is great here. I really should spend some more time outside. So! Are you signed up with Dreamhost? Adsense? Adwords? Did you get those ebooks? If not, go see my other posts, please. Today’s tip. Have you thought of some possible topics you’d like to create a site around? Your next step is to go over to Wordtracker , Google Trends , and Overture and do a little research. Oh you’ll also want to just go to Google, and type in your word or phrase. Then look to the right and see... Read Full Story

OK, so I was wrong. I can’t keep up with this every day, or even every other day! Oops… Well, let’s see…. How about we talk about Adsense and websites today… You’re going to want to create a few pages of very focused content. The more focused it is, the more focused your Adsense ads will be. So spend some time thinking of some topics that you know something about, or would be willing to learn about. Make a list. Think about what you enjoy, or what you’re good at or know a lot about. You know... Read Full Story

OK! So now you should know how to set up a website – that’s great! Now what you’re going to want to do is sign up for Adsense and Adwords. You’ll be using the Adwords account to test out ads, and of course to advertise affiliate products, and your website. If you don’t know what Adwords is, go to Google , type in something, and then look to the right. Those ads are called Adwords! People type up ads and place bids on various keywords, and you only pay when someone clicks on one of your ads... Read Full Story

Last time I left off referring you to a domain hosting recommendation, so I’ll just follow that up with something I recently ran across (and boy I wish I’d found it earlier!) The site is called Weebly and if you have absolutely no html skills whatsoever and are thinking “oh my gosh how do I build a website?” AND don’t want to pay for it… this is a cool place to check out. There are probably others, but I’ve been playing with this one, and I’m liking it. It’s pretty simple, you choose a layout... Read Full Story

Somewhere along the line, you will probably have to buy some domain names for whatever you're doing. Be it promoting affiliate products or programs, or starting a blog with a nice page of it's own, or selling adspace.... whatever it is, you're going to need a good host. I want to recommend one to you that I've had for at least 2 years now, and I'm very satisfied with. Not only are they a great deal, BUT they are now carbon neutral! That's right, they are GREEN. Anyway, besides that awesome... Read Full Story

OK, so let's say you either want to create a website to put Adsense on, or find affiliate products that are really being searched for... I have a couple tools here that will help you find good keywords. The first of these is Google Trends . In Google Trends, you can type in words and see what the search volume is for the past few years, or however long they have data for. Unfortunately, unless I'm just not seeing it, they don't have actual numbers. So once you find a good keyword that's... Read Full Story

Today I'm just going to say a little about affiliate marketing. Affiliate marketing can be a great way to earn some cash. Depending on your product, you can earn a little, or you can earn a lot. I'll use a small example below, of how to become an affiliate. Many websites offer the opportunity to become an affiliate. Some let you sign up for free, and some ask for a fee (sometimes monthly). But if you work smart at marketing it, then the fees don't really matter. Don't let fees stop you if you... Read Full Story

Hello again! Since we're still getting to know eachother, I thought I'd say a few more things before I give you the link I want to give you. First, I'm a real person. I know when I read blogs and marketing websites, it all sounds so businessy. I hate it, because I know they're just trying to sell me something. So I don't completely trust them. And I guess you shouldn't trust people you don't know, right away. I want to earn your trust. :-D The only way I know how to right now is to invite you... Read Full Story
