Generating Traffic To Your Blog
Get Your Blog Listed On Search Engines and In Top Blog Directories
Once you have posted your first piece of private label content, inserted your linkworth code, etc, it is time to promote your blog. Go to http://www.masternewmedia.org/rss/top55/ and submit your blog to as many of these blog and rss feed directories as possible. Some of them may not accept your Blog. Use your key phrase in the title and at least once. Description if you are able to enter one. This is going to take many hours, but the effort is well worth it.
Go to http://yahoo.com and set up an account if you don’t already have one. Add your RSS feed to your "My Yahoo" account as a news feed you want to monitor.
You will need to add RSS Beta to your My Yahoo content if you don't have it. For more info on how to do that, go here:
http://my.yahoo.com/s/rss-faq.html and add it.
You will now add your blog into the RSS feed in my yahoo. To do that, click on edit in the RSS feed section.
Enter the url of your blog.
Go to MSN.com, create an account, and do the same.
To do that, enter your blog URL with “atom.xml” appended to the end of it where it says “Search for content to add”.
Submit your blog to:
http://submit.search.yahoo.com/free/request
http://www.google.com/addurl/?continue=/addurl
http://beta.search.msn.com/docs/submit.aspx
Go to http://pingomatic.com and submit your blog. Remember
to use your key phrase in the title and at least once in the description.
Repeat “the Ping” every time you post new content to your blog.
Use mybloglog.com
Use Blogrush.com
Join forums related to your niche market and post regularly. If you have a blog post related to a question that is being asked, be sure to post the link to that blog post.
Monitor Your Search Engine Rankings
Once you have been indexed by search engines periodically check up on your blog’s rankings within its niche. You do this of course by searching on the key phrase you used for optimization.
If you picked a penetrable niche, you should be able to get onto the first page (at least on Yahoo) within a month, but if not, you will need to:
Search out link partners in your niche and setup reciprocal links. Simply find high-ranking websites in your niche on Google and Yahoo and offer to exchange links with them.
That’s all. (I know, that was a lot of work.)
Now, do it again with a different Blog and a different subject.

How To Make Money Online and Build A Huge List Too!
Making money online is a great thing. You don't have a boss and you have your own interest and program. Making money online is an art rather than a "job". That is, it requires talent as well skills. Making money online is my hobby rather than my occupation.
There are several ways to start out making money on the Internet. I am by no means an expert, but I have been making money online for the last 4 years now, and I have come to the conclusion that the easiest way to get started making money online is to simply copy an existing money making program.
Since I have been marketing online for a while now, I know that the marketers who can make the most money, the fastest are the ones who have a list of prospects that they can e-mail their offers to. The old saying "The Money Is In The List" is true. When you have an list of people interested in your offer that you can mail to, that's money in the bank.
Here is the basic process of building a list. First, you need something Free to give to people. Something of value that they can use online or off whether they have their own business or not. When you offer this Free product or service through advertising, the only way for people to get your Free product or service is to give you their name and e-mail address. Now you have a prospect to mail your offer to. You build your list by using this process over and over again.
The free offer method is a great way to start building a good list of interested prospects, and most online marketers use it, but for me it has a problem that has bugged me for some time. You see you have a cost that comes with advertising your free offer on the internet. Now granted you are receiving guality prospects, but you are not receiving any compensation to cover your advertising cost because you are giving away a free offer. Well I recently discovered a solution to that problem.
Here is how it works. You will offer a program that will build a huge opt-in list of targeted prospects for anyone who uses it. You will be giving away Free vacations to anyone who joins your list building program. It cost $10 to join the program. Your prospects will pay you and 4 other marketers $2.00 each. Here is the kicker. When your prospects make the same offer, anyone who joins their list will also pay you $2.00 and so on down 5 levels deep.
The reason this program is so effective is that it's so simple and inexpensive to run. Look what can happen when you follow the simple program instructions. Everyone who joins this pays 5 people $2 each. That's the $10 cost involved. You then start receiving tons of $2 payments yourself. First from your 10. Then from their 10, then from their 10, etc. If everyone were to take a full month to get their 10 this is what you can expect to earn each month... Month 1: $20 (whoopie!) Month 2: $200 (looking better) Month 3: $2,000 (lets go shopping) Month 4: $20,000 (goodbye CC debt - hello Cancun!) Month 5: $200,000 (goodbye mortgage)
In my opinion this is a great way to get started marketing on the internet, because you have a product to offer that will build you a huge list of opt-in prospects that you can promote other offers to, plus it generates income to help offset your advertising cost. The program is simple and inexpensive to promote, you get a Free 3 day 2 night vacation, plus you have the potential to earn $20,000 in 4 months and build a 10,000 strong prospect list all for just $10.

Boost Your Online Business with a Blog
Boost Your Online Business with a Blog
If you want to give your Internet Marketing efforts a boost, you should consider starting a blog. It's another tool you can use to drive traffic to your web site and increase sales.
What is a Blog?
The most basic definition of a blog is a kind of online journal. It contains posts in reverse chronological order. Now, that may imply that a blog is like an online diary, and some blogs are just that. Other blogs are used to present information, interact with readers, and ultimately to sell products.
The style of a blog is more personal than that used in articles. It's more like having a conversation at a (virtual) water fountain than just presenting information.
Advantages to Having a Blog
When you have a blog (or several of them), it's a way to launch an online presence under your own name. Over time, you start to establish yourself as being an expert in the niche market you have chosen to target.
Since people will usually choose to do business with someone who they know, even through something like a series of blog posts, this is a great way to connect with potential customers. Through your postings, you provide them with information that is timely and relevant to their needs.
Make a point of posting a link to your web site on your blog. Refer to the fact that there is another place your blog visitors can go to more information or see your products.
When you let your blog visitors know that you have a new product for sale, they are more likely to buy from you because they feel as if they know something about you already. You have taken the time to establish credibility.
How to Start a Blog
Starting a blog can be done quickly and easily because there are many blog platforms you can use for FREE. Many are listed in this FREE download called The Blogging Profits Start Up Guide.
Once your account has been created, you can choose a theme for your blog from a number of options. The theme is the background color and image for your blog.
With the choices available, it may be difficult to make a decision! If you get tired of your current theme, you can change it with just a few clicks of your mouse.
You don't need to know any HTML to add content to your blog, either. The editing function is very simple and easy to use.
Keep Your Blog Content Fresh
If you want to attract regular readers to your blog, you will need to keep it updated on a regular basis. You may be able to get away with updating your web site once a month or so, but with a blog you need to plan to add content at least weekly, if not several times a week.
If this seems like too daunting a task with your other responsibilities, then you may want to consider hiring a freelance writer to ghostwrite your blog for you.
