August 27th, 2009 — How To Make Money, Make Money On The Internet, Recommendations
Hey guys, I just wanted to give you all an update on a program that I have been using to increase my overall traffic to my websites in order to make money on the internet. The program is called “Unique Article Wizard” and is very easy to use and will effectively get you a lot of backlinks and boost the traffic coming to your website. (This is a complete Unique Article Wizard review, so be sure to read the full article if you are interested in this program). At the beginning of the month, I used the program on a couple of aged websites to see if the traffic increase would be significant. It turned out that the amount of traffic coming into those sites increased by about 100 people per day after about 3 weeks of using Unique Article Wizard.
What does a traffic increase mean? It means that you are going to be able to make more money on the internet than before. The program Unique Article Wizard is definitely one of my favorite tools simply because it is very easy to use. You simply write three unique versions of an article about the same topic and hundreds of websites post them up and give you free backlinks to your website with whatever anchor text you choose.
I have not yet used the program on this website, but I have been using it on a lot of aged sites. The reason that I haven’t been using it on brand new sites is because it will look very suspicious if you start flooding a brand new site with links. I do not recommend that you send a bunch of links to a site that is less than 3 months old. Okay, let me discuss a few features that I especially like about Unique Article Wizard.
What I like about Unique Article Wizard
1. Only 3 unique articles need to be submitted – The three articles that need to be submitted only need to be about 400 words in length (which is pretty easy to write). I am used to writing very long articles, but for this software I get to take it easy and write a short, well-written article. You basically will need to re-write one article 3 times (which is pretty darn easy if you ask me). You might be saying “3 articles! Holy cow that’s a lot of work!” In reality for the hundreds of links you get, three articles is pretty insignificant.
2. You can get hundreds (if not thousands) of free backlinks – Depending on how many times you submit articles with the service, you can get hundreds (and potentially thousands) of free backlinks to your website. This will surely help you increase your traffic and make more money on the internet. In my honest opinion, this software is easy to use if you want to see a permanent spike in your niche blog traffic. You can also help boost the PR of a site that has aged.
3. It will increase targeted traffic to your website – As I already mentioned, you will notice a traffic increase upon using this program. You are not going to see “instant results,” but over the course of a few weeks, you should see a boost in the number of visitors that are coming to your site. The reason that the number of visitors increases is due to them clicking through to your site from your author’s resource box in your articles and/or your website rising in the SERP’s from all of the backlinks.
4. You can choose your own anchor text – You can easily mix and match your anchor text with this wizard. For your articles, you can quickly create over 600 unique variations in your author credit box. I usually make a list of keywords that I want to target and then put them in the box. You can fool around with synonyms very easily. I think it took me less than 2 minutes to have over 600 different author credit boxes. You should not have much of a problem with this aspect of Unique Article Wizard.
5. It is easy to use for beginners – It has a nice tutorial that walks you through the submission process and explains how the program works. I did not have anybody teach me how to use this program, but it was pretty self-explanatory to figure out on my own. If you end up getting yourself a copy, you should not have any difficulty in determining how it works. It is not complicated and meant for only experts – it took me one single tutorial to get the hang of it.
6. You can choose how many submissions you want per day – Most people are not going to want all 1000 links to their website in a single day because “the man” will know something sketchy is going on. For relatively new sites, I usually set it to around 50 submissions per day. This means that you will have around 100 incoming links on a daily basis. If you want to get more backlinks (i.e. 100 per day or 200 per day), you can set the wizard to the exact amount that you want.
What I don’t like about Unique Article Wizard
1. The backlinks are not very strong - The backlinks that you get are definitely not very strong at all. The reason that you can get benefit from this program is because you get a massive quantity of links from using this wizard. If you care a lot about the quality of links pointing back to your site, then you will probably be a little bit disappointed with this program. Why don’t I care about the quality? Because even though most of the sites are not high-quality, you still get tons and tons of backlinks (which does have a significant benefit).
2. Some of the blogs look spammy - As I said, if you care a lot about the quality of your backlinks, then this program may not be for you. Some of the blogs that your articles get submitted to look exceptionally spammy. On the other hand, some of them look great. I happened to find a few blogs that looked very good – but most of them were a little bit sketchy. Do I think there is much to worry about with these blogs linking to your site? Not really – you will likely get a benefit and not need to worry about having problems.
My Final Thoughts About Unique Article Wizard
The service is exceptional and really works well to get you a lot of extra links. If you are involved with article marketing and trying to get your website up in the rankings, this is a powerful tool and one that I recommend having in your arsenal. Despite the fact that it costs $67 dollars per month (on a subscription basis), you can easily afford to pay this by simply referring a couple of people to the program.
I personally have made my $67 back already with the boost of traffic (and earnings) as a result of using this program. Although there are other marketing tools available on the internet, I do not think that there are any that are as easy to use as this one. If you are new to marketing, I would definitely recommend you test out this tool. As I already said, my traffic has increased an average of 100 visitors per day to the sites that I have used it on.
Will you experience the same success? As long as you use the tool properly, you should have some success. Don’t expect to see an instant spike in traffic, but DO EXPECT to see your traffic increase after a few weeks. Who knows, you may even end up having a lot more success than me with this tool!
I am definitely going to continue using this tool since I have had so much success. My guess is that most people can really benefit from the extra backlinks that they get. It will help anyone that is using marketing to make money on the internet. Give it a shot and see whether or not it helps you out (you can always cancel your subscription if you don’t like it)…
August 11th, 2009 — How To Make Money, Make Money On The Internet, Recommendations, Ways To Make Money On The Internet
So you want to know how to make money on the internet? Or are you looking for a get-rich-quick scheme? There is a clear difference between the two. If you are trying to make money online for the long term, you are going to want to avoid trying to “get rich quick” and the entire mentality that accompanies it. It takes most people MONTHS and sometimes YEARS before they start earning any decent money online.
A great way to make fast money on the internet is to put targeted advertisements on your websites. If you don’t have a website yet, you could write a few articles for InfoBarrel or HubPages and expect to earn some pretty good money via their shared revenue systems. The point is, as long as you have traffic, you have the potential to make money. With that said, you probably will not make squat for money if you are not targeting any specific keywords on your site.
Making Money On The Internet = Avoiding Blogs
What should you do if you have no clue about how to make money? The very first thing you should do is start taking action instead of reading blogs! A lot of times people think that they need to “keep reading blogs” and “absorb as much information” as they can before they actually build a website and start making money online. All that “reading blogs” is going to do for you is show you how other people are making money – it is not going to make you any money yourself!
It is definitely a good thing to have some knowledge about what you are doing before you launch a website, but reading articles about “how to make money on the internet in 30 days with this simple technique… (insert fake testimonial here) it really works, I made $382,082 in 6 hours while sitting in my college dorm room” are not going to get you anywhere. You need to step it up and actually do some keyword research, find some topics that you are interested in writing about (that also pay well), and start setting up websites. Now, I already told you what the best web hosting service is for people that are trying to make money, so get going and sign yourself up if you haven’t!
Buy Yourself Some Hosting and Domains
Once you have signed up, what should you do? I recommend having a list of all the topics that you are going to create websites about, and starting with one website. You are going to need to buy domain names for each website, so you probably want to go through a cheap service. I recommend getting your domain through NetFirms.com (that’s where I get mine) and they only cost about $7.99 per domain (this saves you a couple bucks vs. GoDaddy).
Anyways, once you have purchased your hosting and domains, transfer your name servers to match your hosting. When you have finally gotten your hosting properly set up and all of your name servers transferred, you may need to wait a few hours for them to lock in. Make sure that you have your “privacy” enabled on all of your domains and then start by clicking “Add A Subdomain.” Type in the URL’s of each domain that you purchased.
Setting Up A WordPress Website
Next, go to a little icon called “Fantastico” in your cPanel hosting. You should then set up a new version of WordPress on each of your domains that you bought. Once WordPress has been set up, you should go get yourself some good plugins like (All In One SEO pack, Google Sitemap XML, No Self Pings, etc). You will probably want to make sure that you have a theme that looks good as well.
Your next step should be to write some posts on your website. (Before writing, make sure that your permalink structure is set to custom permalinks with: /%postname%/. After you have set that up, I recommend that you add about 10 to 20 posts that are each solid length. Make sure that you do some keyword research ahead of time using Google’s Keyword Tool. This will help to make sure that you are getting targeted traffic.
Writing Content and Internet Marketing Tools
When you have finally have finished writing your posts, you are going to want to dedicate a pretty darn big chunk of time to marketing them. I recommend that you spend a lot of time on marketing, becuase it will help you get a heck of a lot more traffic than just writing new posts will.
What can you do for marketing? There are a bunch of good things to do as a marketer. I recommend writing related content on shared revenue sites like HubPages and InfoBarrel, (and maybe even Squidoo) and sending about 2 links back to your main website in each posts. Make sure that you are anchoring your links properly for the keyword that you are targeting. You should also look for similar blogs to exchange blogroll links with so that you can get more traffic.
I also recommend using EzineArticles.com and GoArticles.com to send a total of 20 links back to your site. Ezine links are going to be slightly more powerful, so you should go with at least 10 of those. When you have finally sent out all of your links, take some time to wait (by not marketing your site any more for a couple weeks). After about 3 to 4 weeks, you should think about using either Unique Article Wizard or Article Marketing Automation to send your site some more links.
You can get a heck of a lot of good backlinks using these services. Despite their prices ($67 per month for Unique Article Wizard) and $47 per month for Article Marketing Automation, they will save you a ton of time. If you can only afford one, I personally give the edge to UAW, but they both are very solid. What’s nice about using these services is that you will likely be able to earn way more than they cost per month. If you are paying $114 per month, but have increased the traffic on 20 of your sites by double, you could make a lot of extra money… Let’s just say the cost of these 2 programs will be pretty insignificant.
Google Adsense and Affiliate Links To Make Money
After about 1 to 2 solid months of marketing and adding more content to your website, all that you need to do is throw up some Google Adsense ads and affiliate links to products that you like. I don’t recommend promoting any affiliate products that are crappy… make sure that you test them out before you go spamming your blog with links for them.
Anyways, if you followed the instructions in this post, you should be well on your way to making money on the internet quickly. Will you need to keep making websites forever and slaving away at writing new content for all of them? No, once you start making some decent money, you will be able to outsource your article writing and hopefully (eventually), the entire set-up process of your websites!
People can and do make a full time income online if they approach it with the right mentality. Start small, but always focus on making improvements and never (ever ever ever X infinite) give up! It took me awhile to learn how to make money on the internet, but I have figured out a strategy that has worked well for me. Everyone is different, so focus on your strengths and play off of them.
Along your journey, you will make new discoveries and find new monetization methods that maybe I don’t even know about at the moment that may work really well for you. I will say that if you are working A) As hard as possible + B) As smart as possible, you are going to make a lot of money in a pretty short amount of time. Best of luck to all those who set out to make real money on the internet!
