Experimenting with Paid To Read Emails

Another easy way to make some money only is reading paid to read emails. I've been reading some paid to read emails in some of my spare time mostly because you do not get rich quick with them. It is comparable to the amount you would make from Google Adsense in the beginning. Some website do not send out a lot of PTR emails and others do. If you have the time some websites will send you 30 to 50 emails a day.

The reason they are not a get rich scheme is because it takes time to accrue money through them. Most paid to read emails have a value of 1 or 2 cents and if you do the math you would only be making $0.01-$1.00 per day and spending about three to four hours of it. You will spend far too much time in front of the computer to make a lot but they are a nice break from promoting your blog.

There are many different ways to make online money. Some take a lot longer than others and some have an unlimited potential. Knowing how to use more than one source for making online money will help with the growth potential you have as a blogger. If you mix them occasionally you can stand to earn a lot of cash but over time. I have not found a single website that can deliver an overnight success. While your busy socializing and promoting your blog it doesn't hurt to earn a couple pennies on the side. Does it?

Consider This Before Taking Sponsored Posts

Before you decide to take your first post after getting your blog approved by one of the many blogging for profit websites that are out there. If you are worried about your Google Page Rank my advice is simple: don't take a sponsored post. If you are willing to put in the time and effort it takes to grow your brand of blogging and care about your Google Page Rank do not take a sponsored post.

The reason behind that is when Google finds out that you have been taking sponsored posts they will strip you of your Page Rank. To be honest in the whole amount of time I have been blogging I have not been able to figure out why the Page Rank system is so important. When I first started blogging I was so worried about my Page Rank that I would go and visit other blogs and see if I can leave my link behind just to increase my Page Rank. I concentrated on posting frequently and tried to make sure that each post was of good quality. Both are integral parts of making money from blogging but as for how much it relates to Page Rank; I have no idea.

If you got into blogging just for the sake of making money online working from home; there are many ways of making money online. You can make money from referrals, publishing ads, and promoting products that will earn you a commission for every sale. The general rule of thumb is that you should be blogging for fun because most ad publishers do not like having their ads on websites that are solely based on making money. Creating good content, publishing frequently and interacting with other people who blog will grow your traffic and begin making you some easy money. Monetizing a blog is easy; the hard part is knowing when enough is enough.

Anyway my point is quite simply: if you care about your Google PR don't take any sponsored posts. There are plenty of other ways to monetize your blog with out losing your PR. If you are not worried about it then go for it; because there is a lot of money in writing sponsored posts. This blog will be free of any sponsored posts as this is just me telling you how I am blundering through monetizing my own blogs. What do you think? Do the benefits of sponsored posts out weigh the value of a Google Page Rank?

How Many Ways Can You Make Money Online?

Well there are many different ways to make some money online. Becoming an ad publisher is just one of the ways you can make money online. Another way of making money online with your blog is to accept paid or sponsored posts. These are good to make a few dollars in your spare time or if you get bored posting in your niche category. Some people have made a lot of money from sponsored posts, I've only made a little. There are other ways to make money online, today I will tell you about paid posting.

There are many different websites out there that will pay you for blogging. One of the first websites I joined was Smorty. They have a variety of offers for bloggers to make money from posting. Although you have to be quick to get an offer; some of them pay quite well. I did not do very many posts for them and have since started using a different website but I'll save that for another post.

One thing you have to remember about these pay per post websites is that you have to keep the quality of your posts up and you do not want to have two paid or sponsored posts right after another. You don't want to lose any of your readers so you will have to continue to post your regular quality content to keep them coming back. What good is using your blog to advertise different goods and service if you don't have an audience to see your ads? What do you think about paid posting now? Do you think it might be worth it?

Using Sex to Promote Your Blog: An SEO Tip

Have you ever heard of Search Engine Optimization? I have, although I am still learning this part of blogging and attracting traffic to your blog one thing is for sure. "Sex Sells." You don't have to go into a long romantic story to get search engines to find your pages while younger members of the general Internet population is searching for sexy girls, or hot sexy girls in bikini's. I know some of these terms may not get everyone excited out there but there are a lot of people looking for Internet Porn.

Just by working some dirty talk into your posts you are getting attention, even if it is not the targeted attention you have been looking for. One of the most popular keywords is Girls. So many pages have links to explicit pages along with explicit content. I don't know how much traffic you will get just by mentioning hot women in your posts but I have tried this little link bait before and it has worked. The most important thing to remember is to keep it in context with what you are writing about.

Now if you are writing about using these search terms then there really is no holding back. But I digress. Over using the phrase's will detract from the message you are trying to get across. You always have to remember to post on topic with in the niche market you are targeting. Good content properly categorized will help you to keep readers coming back. Just remember when you are using photographs in your post to always give credit to the source of your images.

When I am looking for a photo to use, I always go to Wiki Media I find the licensing information on the page as well. Unless you are working on a photo journal using pictures you have taken yourself you will have to worry about giving credit where credit is due.

Happy Blogging.

Get the Blog flowing

In my last post My First Step I told you what I did to get started earning online. The second step was writing the blog. It took a long time before I finally started to get an average of five visitors a day so blogging will not get you rich quick. However it is a good way to earn a few dollars on the side. But more than just writing you have to build your traffic.

When you talk traffic in the blogging world you need to know a few terms. CTR is your Click Through Rate, advertisers will be looking at this aspect of your traffic a lot. Your CTR determines a lot of different things for an advertiser. For example if your page gets viewed 100 times in a day but only 1 click on an ad then you will have a CTR of 1%. Obviously just by looking at it you would want to improve your CTR considering the higher your CTR is the chances of getting high paying ads on your page will increase.

Here are two more terms you will need to know about your traffic, Page Views and Bounce Rate. Page views are exactly what they sound like, every time your page gets viewed counts as 1 page view; pretty simple. Bounce Rate is also very simple as well. Your bounce rate is determined by how often one of your visitors click on an internal link or just view briefly and leave. The higher your bounce rate the more people who are just visiting for a few seconds and leave. If you want to improve your bounce rate, you have to post frequently and quality posts. This brings me to my next point, posting regular gives your readers something to comeback to as well as helping search engines to find your page.

There are a lot of different search engines out there but most people are prone to use Google for their searches so don't be too surprised when you find out your first hit from a search engine came from Google. A lot of bloggers are concerned with SEO or Search Engine Optimization, of course optimizing your blog to bring in more traffic from one of the millions of searches performed every day is good. You are going to want to keep people who find your blog from searches to stay for a little while and actually become readers; you will need good content for that.

When your first starting out you will have to focus on creating quality posts so those bloggers who do find your page are willing to comeback and read some more. (My this post is running long, hurry up and end it will ya!) Anyway I will get into building your traffic in my next post, I think this one is getting a little long. Peace out!

My First Step

My first step towards earning online was some what lengthy and to make a long story short a lot of trouble that was completely unnecessary. The first thing I did to earn online was PTR emails. I don't know if anybody has tried this or maybe you have and you are looking for something better and more rewarding. I'm not going to tell you to avoid PTR websites but I will tell you that you are definitely not going to make much more than ten cents a day. I have tried these before and so far definitely not the best money maker for your valuable time.

I trundled around the Paid To websites for close to eight months before I realized that there has to be a better way to earn online. It wasn't until the end of September last year that I finally found what I was looking for. I didn't realize the full potential of blogging until it finally made me some real cash not a lot of cash but it was enough to make a withdraw from my Paypal account. I'm not going to tell you that I am the most respected authority on making money online, just that I have made money online. I'm going to share some of the things that have helped me to make money online.

The first step towards earning online is to just get out there and get started. If you do not have anything for people to read no one will visit your website or blog as the case may be. I have chosen to use blogging to make money online. Getting started is easy. My favorite platform to blog on is the Blogger or blogspot platform. The reason is that Blogger allows you to publish Google Adsense and it doesn't cost you anything but time to get started. So my first tip for you is just to get started.

My second tip goes hand in hand with my first tip. If you are going to start blogging, look for a niche that you can easily fit into. Targeted traffic is easier to get when you are publishing a niche blog. The best way to do this is just to figure out what you love to write about and stay focused. I will have more tips for you in the future, this will help you to get started.
