Should I Stay Away From Adsense Ready Websites?

Written by admin on Sunday, June 15th, 2008 in Infopreneurship, google, internet.

Internet is the information super highway and all successful info publishers(infopreneurs) earn money with Google adsense. Creating content (information) is a time consuming process and requires a lot of hard work,that is why some people are selling ready made websites with hundreds of the pages of content. As we all know that earning online with Google adsense is very simple (Its simple because you just need to create unique and quality content) but not as easy as described by these adsense ready website sellers, they are continuously fishing for innocent newbies.

Why Adsense Ready Websites Are Scams?

Any one can buy these adsense ready websites but only those people earn online who write their own original and quality content .There are many reasons why these websites are scams and some of the are listed below.

1) Google’s Duplicate Content Policy (No Search Engine Traffic)

Content of website that you are going to purchase is already indexed by Google as people have purchased same content or same website many times before. Google’s duplicate content policy clearly states that same content over multiple domains (websites) is considered as “Duplicate Content“, so your site will not be indexed by Google and you are not going to receive any search engine traffic.

2) No Credibility

Good, quality and unique information builds reader’s loyalty and give them a very good reason to come back again and again. But the information on your website is not original and same information is already there on many other website. There is nothing special on your site, why should they subscribe to your newsletter?

3) High Bounce Back Rate

These websites are very poorly designed as their main purpose is to make innocent people fool. Bounce back rate of these ugly websites is much higher than a well designed website.

4) Hosting And Internal Link Scams

There are some sellers that provide adsense ready websites free of charge and only charge the hosting fee. But actually it’s not free; they link your main site with their own individual pages to enjoy free income on your behalf.

Which Blogging System Should I Choose For Business?

Written by admin on Tuesday, June 10th, 2008 in Infopreneurship, internet.

Blog is a simple, free and easy way to build an online business. Blogging is easy because there is no html knowledge or html editor needed to publish your content. You don’t even need to link your article page from the main site as few plugins does every thing.Blogger.com and wordpress.com are websites that provide blog hosting free of charge and any one can create a blog at these two services. However, wordpress.org is a free blogging software that can be installed on an independent host.

Which Blogging System Is Right For Me?

To answer this question,we have to consider the pros and cons of all these available blogging options.

Advantages Of Free Hosted Wordpress blog(Wordpress.com)

  • It’s a free service and can be used to share information and to make your opinion account
  • User can register their own domain if they are not happy with a free sub domain of wordpress.com

Disadvantages Of Free Hosted Wordpress Blog (Wordpress.com)

  • The biggest revenue of blogging comes from content matched ads (Google adsense, YPN, Adbrite) .This service does not support java script so Google adsense can’t be used
  • Plugins have a lot of SEO advantages and are also helpful in arranging your content but this service doesn’t allow open source plugins
  • You cannot upload your own themes (template)
  • You don’t have any control on the codes that are being used on your blog

Conclusion: This is a great free service to create a blog for fun, family and friends. But if you want to create a business blog then this may not be a right choice.

Advantages Of Using Free Hosted Blog At Blogger(Blogger.com)

  • You can use Google adsense and other affiliate banner ads
  • You can customize your template
  • You can use your own domain name instead of blogspot sub domain

  • Although blogger provides more flexibility than wordpress.com but it doesn’t offer “categories”
  • You have to ping you blog each time after publishing a post at Ping-o-Matic
  • Permalink structure of blogger is a little bit confusing

Conclusion: Blogger is a company that is owned by Google and provides quality free service. Blogger is not only for fun but also for making some money. Although some people earns by blogging on blogger but it is not the best business solution.

What is the best blogging solution For Infopreneurs?

Wordpress.org is free open source powerful blogging software by wordpress that can be installed on any independent host and serve as the best business solution for infopreneurs.

Benefits Of Using Wordpress Software (wordpress.org)

  • Thousands of free wordpress themes are available on the internet

Hostgator is a very popular service for hosting blogs and forums and provide automatic wordpress installation.So just go to your hosting control panel, click on Fantastico and then click on wordpress. Follow some steps, you are done (watch video to learn more).If your hosting does not offer auto installation then see this tutorial.

Which Affiliate Programs Should I Join?

Written by admin on Wednesday, May 28th, 2008 in Infopreneurship.

Affiliate marketing is a cool way of earning online and it is considered as the second biggest source of income for infopreneurs after Content matched ads. Affiliate programs are free to join and now- a -days almost every merchant offers these programs with 15 to 30% commission. But still there are numerous factors that need to be considered before selecting any affiliate program.

Avoiding the Cookies Scams?
The concept of affiliate marketing revolves around temporary computer cookies because online buying behavior is different from offline purchases. The primary job of every affiliate is to send traffic to the merchant’s website through their referral id or links and actual sale may take place after few hrs, weeks or months.

When visitors will visit merchants through your affiliate link,this will create a temporary cookie in their computers to track your sales. All quality affiliate programs offer permanent cookies and you will get your commission even if the actual sale takes place after few months or so.

But still there are some programs that offer cookies for a limited time period 30, 60, 90,120 and 150 days cookies and I consider these programs as scams because they are just exploiting their affiliates. So if you join any affiliate program that offer time based cookies then you will not get any commission after the expiration of these cookies.

Affiliate Product Should Be Problem Solving
Your affiliate product should be problem solving. For instance if your niche is music or any sub category of music and you think that a particular brand of music instrument is better for beginners then you can join affiliate program of your suggested musical instrument. Joining each and every program according to your niche is a bad idea as some times infopreneurs have to make a clear opinion.

Affiliate Program Should Offer Residual Income
Affiliate marketers spend a lot of time in marketing any product or service that is why I don’t recommend single tier programs. Single tier programs only pays commission when there is a sale through your referral link. All quality merchants offer 2 tier or multi tier affiliate programs to provide good residual income to their affiliates.

Quality Customer Service And Promotional Forums:
It is the responsibility of merchants to guide their affiliates and provide quality customer service and promotional material. There are some merchants that have discussion forums and some affiliate programs like IMC also arrange conference calls for their affiliates.

Although there is no room for failure in infopreneurship but still people fail because they are not able to provide quality information to their audience. Before selecting any topic (niche) for your website make sure that you have enough knowledge on your niche and if your selected niche is related to your education or profession then success is almost guaranteed. For instance if you are Psychologist then your niche would be “depression”, “anxiety” and “panic attacks” or anything related psychology but if you are a business and management expert then you niche would be “Customer Service”, “Preparing for job interviews” or any thing related to business and management.

Chosing The Right Path(Download These Slides)

Your content should be unique, theme based and should solve the problem of all information seekers who come to your site for a specific piece of information. Skills, knowledge, abilities and experiences are only helpful if you are at right place and infopreneurship is the right place for you but still you have to write killer content by converting your knowledge into words with passion and commitment.

Blogging Is A Hobby But Website Is A Business?

Written by admin on Tuesday, May 6th, 2008 in Infopreneurship.

Where to start your business? blog or website the debate is still open. Yeh, the debate is still on and has taken a surprising turn as bigger companies have entered into this discussion. A new webpage Blog OR Build by Sitesell Says”Blogging is a hobby but website is a business”. The whole article is written with logic and facts but still we need to review the key points mentioned by Sitesell.

1) Content Is Not Organized

According to this article content of blogs is organized by post’s date and time so there is no continuity. For instance if you are providing information in step by step manner then it would be very hard for your readers to read all your tips because they will leave after reading the particular post and that’s why the bounce back time of blogs is much more higher then websites. This article also quotes Google where Google says” blogs deliver a poor quality visitor”.

Yeh, it’s very hard to organize your content for the maximum readership but still there are some techniques that bloggers are using for this purpose.

  • Using Some Plugins

There are some plug-ins available that can show your related posts and related comments. I use similar posts plug-in for this purpose on my blogs.

  • Inter-linking Your Articles

Another technique that can be used for this purpose is “Inter-linking of your Articles”. Most of the bloggers inter-link their related articles so that visitor can stay for a longer period of time but still all these methods have a lot of limitations.

2) A Monkey on Your Back

According to sitesell blog is “A Monkey on Your Back, It Wants To Be Fed Every Day, But We All Have Jobs and its Hard to Do”. Not only that this article also highlights the stress and anxiety issues that bloggers face. I agree with all those health points mentioned in this article. I can’t say that these issues are not there in case of a website but once you have sufficient content on your website then you can relax a little bit for some time or even until new issue in your niche arises but in blogging your mind always remain in stress as you have to write your next post otherwise search engine will be ready to ignore you.

Blog VS Website?

There are a lot of people who have turned their blogs into a profitable infopreneurial ventures but still website has its own dimensions .Almost every infopreneurs starts their businesses with websites then later on they also blog occasionally. I don’t know why Sitesell has written this article? because according to me there is nothing that could compete with SBI for infopreneurship. Although like every successful infopreneurs you can install blog or even forums on the same hosting but at the starting level you have to consider one of these options

Anti Get Rich Quick Means “Success”

Written by admin on Monday, April 28th, 2008 in Infopreneurship.

Every one wants to get rich and get rich quick and those who don’t have any vision or path will never get rich. There is nothing that can be achieved without hard work, commitment and passion. Internet business world can make any one rich but not without hard work and not so quick and any one who says that you can get rich quick is a scammer and want to scam you.

A person who says he is rich and can make you rich and then sells his get rich quick strategies ebook, now imagine how much rich an e-book seller can be. There are thousands and thousands of businesses available on the internet but I like infopreneurship because it is for every one and the biggest use of internet is “information”.

Establishing a successful infopreneurship is not get rich quick solution because you have to build enough content before seeing any revenue and result. Although SBI sites can deliver fast results with its web development and traffic generation tools but not without content. Content is the ultimate king and quality of content means successful future, if your content is not original then you will not have any loyal readership and same thing happens with ugly website that gets adsense clicks but not loyal readership. So a minimum of a year’s time is required to build a content rich site,SBI can help in increasing your traffic in a quick span of time but in the end its content and its quality that matters.

No ebook can make you rich and there is no shortcut to success. The formula is very simple, more content means more traffic and more traffic means more income either from adsense or affiliate marketing.

How To Earn Multiple Streams Of Income?

Written by admin on Friday, April 18th, 2008 in Infopreneurship.

Successful infipreneurs earn multiple streams of income. As the name suggest “Multiple Streams of Income” means earning from various sources of income. Good thing about infpreneurship is that infopreneurs earns without selling any product, without any sales copy and without any marketing or fake customer’s testimonials,”honesty” is the beauty of infopreneurship.

What Are These Sources Of Income?

There are thousands and thousands of income sources available for all Infopreneurs.

I would like to give you a little introduction of these sources.

1) Earning From Content Match Ads (Google AdSense)

Google adSense is a great solution for all infopreneurs. The beauty of this system is that it automatically displays Ads relevant to your website content, your earning from Google adsense or any other solution will depend on your website traffic and traffic will depend on your content. So content is the ultimate king, your income will increase automatically with the increase in content.

2) Affiliate Marketing

Good infopreneurs always chose smart products or services for affiliate marketing. I would like to advise you to read my article on affiliate marketing for better understanding and for selecting more appropriate affiliate marketing program. Affiliate marketing programs are free to sign up and people are earning thousands of dollars just by marketing products of various vendors.

Here are few things that you should consider before choosing any affiliate marketing program

  • Affiliate marketing program should be relevant to your website content.

  • Always select high quality programs(high quality products or services), High quality with high commission should be even better.
  • Banner Ads is a good option but you can also use your affiliate links in your articles (content).That is the biggest advantage of choosing affiliate program relevant to your content.
  • Always write with honesty and give your honest opinion about any product. If you want to review a product then it would be better to sign up for its affiliate program first to maximize your earning. For instance if you are running a site on Football and want to write about football shoes then it would be a win win situation to signup the affiliate programs of all those shoes on which you are going to write and insert their links in your writings.To know more about affiliate marketing and selecting most appropriate affiliate program then read my article on affiliate marketing.

How much you can earn with infopreneurship?

Answer of this question will depend on your content, more content means more traffic and more traffic mean more income. Successful infopreneurs are earning one thousand dollars or more per day. To achieve success you have to build content with a lot of patience.

Building an Infopreneurial Website

Written by admin on Thursday, April 17th, 2008 in Infopreneurship.

Most infopreneurs build websites to start their profitable ventures. Building a website is not so difficult; you don’t need to be an expert to build quality websites. A lot of free web templates are available on the internet and some services like Site Build It provides point and click solutions for all infopreneurs especially moms and passionate people.

I personally prefer Site Build It because it provides complete step by step guidelines and most importantly they give the guaranty of “success” and have a lot of satisfied customers.

Although if you think! You can build a website by yourself then I would advise you to visit Liza’s website. She is a famous infopreneur and guide people in developing websites.

Blog is another option for infopreneurs .Blog or website, choice is yours but at the starting point you have to choose one of these options. Later on you can install both blog and website on the same hosting as most infopreneurs do after achieving “success”. In the beginning, you have to focus on one option otherwise you will lose your concentration.

Choosing a blog on a free host is not a good idea because of SEO disadvantages, you cannot build your own brand name and you cannot use Google ads on wordpress.com blog because this service does not support java script. Best solution is installing word press blog on an independent host like this one. Installing wordpress blog on any hosting is very easy and a lot of online tutorials are available on this topic. Some hosing services like hostgator provides automatic wordpress installation that hardly takes few seconds.

Blog or website is the second step in starting an infopreneurship, in the first step you have to identify the niche market.

Information is the biggest market on the internet. Famous rule of demand and supply works for infopreneurs, people search for specific information and successful infopreneurs are those who provide quality information to these information seekers.

Infopreneurship is far better than ecommerce because it’s for every one and for every segment of the society.Choosing the right niche is very important; here are three main things that you will consider before choosing any niche or topic for your infopreneurship.

1) Passion

Yes passion! Chose the Niche on which you are passionate enough. For instance If you are an Athlete and want to start your own infopreneurship then the best niche in my opinion would be athletics because you can write on this topic with passion and motivation.

2) Creativity

Infopreneurship requires creativity and knowledge. So you should be knowledge able enough about your niche and should write with creativity,good infopreneurs always think and made a comprehensive sketch in their minds before writing the actual content.

3) Quality of information

Quality of information is another factor that you should consider before choosing any niche. You have to inspire your visitor so that they can subscribe to your feed or newsletter. For that purpose your information should have emotional expressions.

Your earning depends on your information and these three factors are very important before starting any infopreneurial venture.
