» Publishers, Monetize your RSS feeds with FeedShow: More infos (Show/Hide Ads)
If you’re goal is to make money online free, then inevitably you realize that you need more than one site, which many of us all ready have. Managing a wide array of websites is difficult and can get pretty crazy, since we are usually working alone in our online business ventures and do not have a team or marketers on hand, or even a secretary.
As I have said several times, I often wish I could clone myself 
Because of this reality, it is crucial to work smarter and not harder!
Wordpress and Blogging Versus Building Money Sites
Wordpress is a great CMS (content management platform), referred to as blogging software, but it can be used to build any kind of sites, not just those for the traditional purpose of blogging, and that includes making multiple money sites for free. Traditional blogging is a much more personal endeavor that is mostly about connecting with readers and attending to subscribers. It is a social entity.
A blog can be about information, education, flagship for a particular niche or even just a personal life blog, whatever the topic, most bloggers “care” a lot of their audience versus the money sites where the goal is have them click on Adsense, or to perform whatever action is needed to make money.
While bloggers will make money, you don’t have to be a traditional blogger to make money online, in fact the two venues are quite different. Most traditional bloggers want to be famous in their niche, and blogging is essentially a social entity on the web, while real Internet marketers could care less, we just want cash, 
and in reality, if you want to make money online for free using Wordpress is a great option.
And,
Wordpress software is an easy and very user-friendly platform to build niche sites quickly and easily for the purpose of making money online. Using Wordpress over static website software is a much better alternative, as it is easy to create, update and promote content virally in Wordpress than other website software and it is a great alternative to make money online for free.
So,
Since most marketers will have a multitude of money sites, as opposed to bloggers who usually focus on one blog, it is important to be able to build and launch these money sites quickly as time is always an issue and then get on with the all important promotion of those sites.
In this post, I am referring to using Wordpress as simply a platform to build numerous money sites quickly in order to make money online in an efficient and time saving manner, and NOT necessarily for the traditional blogging venue as described above, all though the two can overlap and most of these tips can be used to build traditional blogs quickly as well.
7 Tips to Build and Launch Multiple Wordpress Money Blogs Quickly
1. Quickly Adding Wordpress Platform to Domains
Use cPanel in your hosting account to add Wordpress to your domain. All cPanels have automatic upload either via Fantastico or just named Wordpress. Takes 1 minute to upload all the necessary files to begin building your money site. This can also be done manually, but who needs that when it can be done in minutes automatically and correctly, so no files are forgotten.
2. Familiar Wordpress Themes
After some experience with Wordpress, most everyone has a favorite theme, at least I do. This is the theme that you know, you have played with it, maybe gone into the Editor files and know how to edit the PHP files, and CSS. If you don’t I suggest that you find one, or maybe two and learn them well.
This is the theme that is best used for the money sites and to make money online for free, as it will become a breeze to update the site and edit and style it according to specific site needs.
Also, always use professional themes and layouts that are pleasing to the eye and are not broken in some way, where for example Adsense is overlapping onto content, LOOKS REALLY LAME and will not aid you to make more money online.
3. Easy Plugin Install Option for Multiple Sites
As with themes there are standard plugins that we all use and need on all of our Wordpress domains.
Some of mine are
All-In-One SEO, Wordpress Automatic Database Backup, Google XML Sitemaps (sitemaps for Google), Dagon Design Sitemaps (sitemaps for visitors), Home Page Excerpts, WP-Cache, Similar Posts, Collapsing Categories and Akismet.
Yours maybe different.
To easily manage multiple site plugins, use your cPanel hosting File Manager
You don’t have to upload the plugins one by one to each of your money sites Wordpress blogs.
Go to your File Manager in cPanel of your hosting and copy the files from an existing site that has the same plugins. You can just copy over the files an existing domain’s Plugins folder to another.
Takes just a few minutes. Then activate them in Wordpress Admin.
By the way, you can do the same with other standard files, like Robots.txt, Disclaimers and Terms and Privacy Policies. Then just edit the site details and url’s from the cPanel file manager.
4. Wordpress Admin Setting
Once the theme and plugins are uploaded, I can quickly go through the Settings in Admin Dashboard of Wordpress and set it up the same way I always do, when you’ve done it several times, it’s a breeze because you know the interface so well. This includes, setting up sidebar widgets, footer links and other stuff.
5. Content Shortcuts
The content quality level for money sites is not necessarily as important as that for the “blogging” or flagship sites. It really isn’t. The focus is to make money and not rivet readers (unless you have a review type site where you really want to pursuade someone to buy a product) the focus is monetization.
And, in order to make that money online and for free you want to target the correct longtails for as many inner pages as possible to get the most possible free search engine traffic to that site, as search traffic buys. If you need to learn more about accurate keyword research, then please visit this guide Step-By-Step Keyword Research.
For websites that you build to make money online you want someone to leave your site using an available form of monetazation, Adsense click, Banner click, or any other type of adds that you have, so Ad placement is crucial.
I am not saying to write crap…but do not worry so much about it. The most crucial aspect of content pages on money niche sites is keyword research because along with Wordpress, which is a free software, that search traffic is also free, and so you will be making money online for free.
Find good longtails and write posts about those, it’s the best way to get a long term stream of that previous search engine traffic. More details on that here: Higher Rankings with Proper Keyword Reasearch.
Time Saving Keyword Research
Don’t over think it.
Use Free SEO Book KW Tool, search the main niche keywords of the site and note all the long tail results.
Then, Google, allintitle:”KW” to see the competition, for those longtails.
Crunch The Numbers:
a. Search numbers can be low for inner pages, as long as some exist.
b. Competition, I go for under 20,000 and 1st page of SERPS does not have more than 3 PR3+ pages (usually longtails have fairly low competition)
It should take less than an hour to get a list of several good longtails to target for content pages.
Then you can start creating some posts that target those longtails, usually 5 pages of inner content are enough to start with as you will want to update on a regular basis.
Content Tips To Manage Multiple Sites
Golden rule for content – Nauseatingly long posts work best!
If you want to make money online for free then you need that search traffic and 800+ word content pages on money sites attract search engines, and allow for appropriate keyword targeting, NOT stuffing, but targeting, as a 800 + word page will naturally mention them without needing to over do it. Also, because these are money sites, you want to have more content than affiliate pages or links, especially with a new site, so those very long posts really boost favoritism from Google because they add value.
In reality, if you have several money sites writing these kinds of long pages by hand will be extremely time consuming and draining.
Save Time with Quality PLR
Using quality PLR (public label rights articles) that is written well and in good English will save you loads of time. But make sure that you do not just copy them into your sites. Because so many people use PLR, you have to rewrite them to make them unique and original, this is very important, as you do not want build a scraper looking site. You can buy PLR articles and you can also get them for free, just make sure they are quality articles and not a load of crap.
You can rewrite the PLR by hand, or use The Best Spinner, which I highly recommend you all check out because it is an excellent tool, and it now features the ability to post spun articles directly to your Wordpress blogs from the tool’s dashboard.
Good PLR Resources
Tons of PLR Downloads for All Niches – Excellent resource put together by George at Serradinho Blog.
Free PLR Articles – Excellent resource from Jonathan Scott, lots of niches, and well written content
All Private Label Content – Some nice free packs
There are tons more sites with good PLR content online, you can also Google your niche + PLR and you will find relevant articles.
6. Quick Google Indexing for Finished Money Sites
Once your site is ready it is crucial to attract the search engines as quickly as possible and get the website indexed, especially by Google. Submit a content page (not home page) or two to Mixx, Jumptags and Stumble. Digg works great too, as long as there is an appropriate category for the niche. Google will always notice your site via those venues.
Every time I do this, my site is indexed within 2 days, all other on-site issues being equal, like proper on-site SEO, clean design and no tech issues.
7. Ongoing Promotion Methods
Then I submit the XML sitemap to Google Webmaster Tools, write a couple of articles for it to submit to article directories, especially Ezine Articles, add some more social bookmarks, a few directory links, and let it rest and age for a couple of months before building any more links or doing heavy promotion. In the meantime I keep adding more content regularly.
Using the above methods I can create, design, and launch a new site in about a day or at most two and have unlimited possibilities to make money online for free! The more practice the easier it gets.
Anyone have any additional tips to save time when building their money sites?

An interesting post about Google wiping out numerous Blogger blog sites that focused on music for what they said were violations of the Blogspot/Blogger TOS in using copyrighted material at Google Shuts Down Music Blogs Without Warning.
I think this is important to read as it illustrates possible issues with using free domains, such as Blogger and Wordpress.com and how in general you should be considerate of using such services as you are not the true owner of that web real estate and never will be. I’m not saying don’t use them, as many do and have no issues, I’m just saying it something to consider.

There is only one thing that is certain about making money online and Internet marketing and that is that things can change at any time. Affiliate accounts get canceled, campaigns fail and do not produce the results we want, affiliate programs close, software we love stops being supported, venues come and go, etc. As marketers it is important that we learn to role with the punches, not put all our eggs in one basket and be flexible and rugged enough to handle changes that are both within and beyond our control. And most important never give up on reaching our goals.
Many newbies who begin the make money online venture have the misconception that buckets of cash will start to roll in droves 3 months after they launch a website. WRONG! This does not happen, as it takes hands-on experience, time, dedication and effort to make money online. Most of those newbies will not wait to see the magic happen as they will give up before it possibly can.
If you think that the big online successes like Jeremy Shoemaker (Shoemoney), Courtney Tuttle, or John Chow just to name a few, made their big online bucks in their first month or even first year online, think again!
In fact, if you have ever read about John’s or Jeremy’s history at all, you will know that they struggled to make even a dime in their initial years, especially Jeremy. And John, who was actually there when the whole Internet thing came to be, lived through and survived the infamous Internet crash, BUT, neither had given up and both now enjoy enormous wealth and the fruits of their labor.
Failed campaigns are another bone of contention that can trigger defeat and marketers to give up. It is something all of us have either dealt with or will deal with in the future. One of the keys to success in this business is perseverance and faith. And a true acceptance of the fact that some campaigns will fail, not all will make us money, or make us famous, whatever your goal online maybe.
This is why it is crucial to adjust goals and venues as needed to reach that ultimate goal of financial independence and to be free of the 9 to 5. I think overall that is the ultimate goal for all of us.
Putting your eggs in one basket online is not the safest or best idea and can be self defeating in the end. We have to diversify our campaigns, look to different monetization venues and options, build more sites once we feel comfortable with the process and press forward no matter what.
In reality, to me there is no failure online, as I learn from each and every one of my ventures, whether they reach their goals or not. In fact, I truly believe that the failures I have experienced were my biggest teachers. Many times learning what doesn’t work and what not to do can be the biggest propellers to success.
So press on no matter what, and do not let negativity, feelings of defeat, common changes and failures deter you from your goals!
Success will happen, with the correct knowledge, hard work, patience and faith, you will reach your goals, convince yourlself of that, follow the correct techniques and your half way there! The make money online business is a viable, real and credible venture and one that has an unlimited amount of potential.
I truly believe that and I hope this helps those of you who maybe feeling like giving up now or in the future.
What do you guys think? Anyone ever felt like giving up? How do you deal with failures online?

I recently let you guys know about a great new tool for webmasters and MMO from Johnathan Ledger in my post at: The Best Content Spinner
I wanted to remind everyone that the The Best Content Spinner will leave Beta this Sunday night at midnight so you still have the weekend to try it for free: Try Best Content Spinner
As of Monday, February 1 it will go on sale at half off till February 5, which at $47 a year is still a great deal. Other spinners cost more and give a lot less.
Truly The Best Ever Spinning Tool Created
Unlike other spinner tools, this one has a fantastic and very comprehensive Thesaurus with both words and phrases.
It is really amazing, for doing multiple spins, as well as single rewrites of PLR articles or any content to make dozens of completely unique versions, this is the ultimate must have tool for money sites.
The other main attraction that unlike other tools, where you have to think up your own synonyms and add them in manually, this provides a neat drop down menu and 1 click insert or replacement of words and phrases.
Automatically goes to next word or phrase in content once finished with previous ones which make spinning a breeze.
and tons more.
And, this week Johnathan announced that the Spinner now supports German, Spanish and French language rewrites as well.
I really like that Jonathan, the developer is actively in the forum, personally addressing any issues us beta users are having with the product, and fixing all bugs. His customer service skills is another reason this product ROCKS!!!

I was perusing a forum the other day and someone wrote a really long post about how he is perplexed with the Google dance going on with his website in SERPS. He went on to describe in excruciating (and quite painful to any reader) detail how he is perplexed as to how his site keeps jumping 1 or two spots on an almost hourly basis, and yes he provided the forum members with a blow by blow of his day of checking minute by minute, and his frustration with these developments as his site was dropping a little bit at a time.
Ummmmmmmmmmmmm….Can You Say SERP Addicts Anonymous?……………….Yeah!
About 1/4 of the way through I stopped reading of course, and I wondered if he realizes that if this is how he spends his day, then his SERP positions will just continue to drop because he is not focusing on nor doing anything to enable better SERP positions and checking them minute by minute will certainly not make that happen 
Getting obsessed and addicted to these types of things can often happen and especially with newbies to the business. In reality becoming fixated on those stats, as well as other aspects of Internet marketing and online business that people get caught up with, like checking commissions every 10 minutes is really self defeating. These are not productive activities as they only take valuable time from doing the array of important tasks for Internet marketing. There are regular fluctuations that occur naturally in SERPS and especially Google, and constantly checking these can be a source of great stress, which inevitably affect your work performance.
As an alternative spend some time…
Commenting on dofollow blogs, Gail from Growmap has a really useful resource to find some at Dofollow Blogs. How about some website promotion, link building, writing some good website content, networking for guest posts and article marketing.
You can also…
Work on boosting online conversion rates, commenting on some great blogs that have Comment Luv, testing ad placements, researching hot keywords for new or existing website pages, maybe you have been lacking in your search engine marketing efforts, or any number of other millions of tasks and duties that are on our plates, like social media marketing.
SERP analysis is important, don’t get me wrong, but there are limits, the Google dance is constant and it’s better to spend valuable time securing our positions rather than checking on them.
SERP analysis is important but they are the end all, in the grand scheme of things, falling some spots in Google will not crush you. The SERPS change all the time, and it’s much better to spend time focusing on the tasks that promote those SERP positions than obsessing over them and getting some good links that will ultimately aid those positions.
When you do need to check the SERPS, try this neat little checker, Instant SERP Rankings Checker that offers a simple interface for SERP analysis.
If you should find yourself checking the SERPS all the time, then please stop. Don’t let such distractions take over your online business and Internet marketing success!

We have talked previously in other posts about there being a lack of a really useful and easy to use content spinner. Well those days are gone because John Leger, has created the ultimate and best content spinner ever made.
I am not going to go into the particulars of having this kind of tool in your Internet marketing arsenal, as those of us who have been around know quite well how useful and how much of a time saver this can be to properly utilize PLR articles and for other various uses, such as article marketing. In the big picture, this certainly will have multiple benefits.
For best results, always be thorough in the spin and make sure you don’t start with crap, because no matter how good the spinner, you will end up with crap. Remember that traffic and users of your sites matter, and not just the Search Engines, so you have to provide content for both.
You can always check out the results in Copyscape to be sure that the content is fresh and unique.
The Best Content Spinner, really is the best! All the other crap spinners that are out there and cost a lot more cannot compare to this useful, easy to use and fast tool!
All I can say is finally, this is the Spinner all us marketer have been waiting!!!!!!!!!
For those who are going to scream at me about their flagship blogs and main sites, this content spinning tool is not meant to spin content on those types of sites.
The Best Spinner Features
1. No need to think up synonyms, it offers a drop down menu with tons of choices to replace words and phrases.
2. No need to insert coding and spin syntax, it does it automatically.
3. There is a replace feature, so you can replace words and phrases when you only need one rewrite of content.
4. The syntax coded version offers unlimited inserts of synonym words and phrases. You can choose one word, or a whole phrase or even a sentence to spin.
5. Produces all spun variations as well as spin syntaxed (coded) copies.
6. One click quick selection of synonyms
7. Unlimited nested spinning
8. You can edit and make changes manually within the spinning console
9. Easy save and exporting to clipboard
10. Word count and uniqueness percentages
11. Support for Spanish, German and other languages
12. A newly added article directory where you can submit articles that other members can post to their sites for backlinks!
AND
13. You can now post articles directly to your Wordpress blogs from the spinner, and unique versions of it to several blogs
plus a members forum where the developer is active and offers on going support
and tons more features…
Truly this is the best content spinner I have ever seen and what all marketers have been waiting for and I urge you guys to try it out.
The regular price is $87 per year, but right now you can still try it for $7 for 7 days and take it for a full test run.
Check out the Video of the Spinner in Action, and get buy it before the price goes back up. Believe me you guys will be just as amazed as I was.

Here are some of the most important lessons I learned in 2009 for making money online, Internet marketing and affiliate marketing. These come from all hands-on trial and error learning, which I believe is the best teacher of all!
1. Keyword Research is important, but hot products will always sell – Keyword research is crucial for affiliate marketing, blogging and making money online, but if you have a hot product in mind and it happens to have very low, or even non-existent search volume in keyword tools that does not mean it has no potential. The fact is hot products, promoted correctly will always make you money.
2. Write Great Content And The Links Come Naturally – This is something you hear over and over and something I always thought was a myth, however, this blog proves it.
Every single link that gives me page 1 SERP placement for tons of my posts as well as the home page are all natural. This fact of natural links is harder to achieve for some niches, as the Internet Marketing and MMO niche is more prone to natural links since it’s so big, but you should still have great original content for any niche as it will attract at least some natural links and establish you as an authority within your topic.
3. Volume of Content is Key - The more well monetized content (inner pages) you have the more traffic potential grows and that leads to more money, it’s that simple. Those inner pages flood the SERPS of search engines and bring traffic to your site. So either build more sites or expand the ones that you have.
4. Social Traffic is a Money Making Bust – With the exception of a very few select niche and social site combinations, social traffic doesn’t buy, this has been proven time and again. If you are a flagship blogger and looking for fame then social traffic should be your main focus, but if you want to make money online, then it’s a total bust, always focus on organic search traffic that is where the buyers are !
5. Diversify Your Link Profile – Getting links to home pages only is not wise, it looks unnatural and it is much better to get about a 50/50 split between home page and inner pages for you backlinks.
On the same note inner page links can be as effective if not more effective than home page backlinks, as Google will come to view you as an authority on your topic and that is what gives you high SERP placement.
6. There Are No Failed Campaigns – While some of my sites make a lot more money than others, there are no failures. For example, I have a few sites that make me about $25 a month, times those by 3 and that’s $75, times it by 10 and it’s $250, you get the idea.
Also, every thing you do for your online business is a teaching experience and an opportunity to learn something new. Even if that site only makes $1 for the whole year you can bet that I will learn something from it and it will help me to grow as an Internet Marketer.
7. Testing Is A Great Teacher – Whether it’s ads, money making venues, niche sites, or blog campaigns testing out different avenues online is the best way to learn what works and what doesn’t. What works for one marketer may not work for another, so if you have an idea go for it, test it out and see how it works for you. Try new things, test tried and true venues, just test test test!
8. Spend Your Precious Time Wisely – Time management is crucial for working at home in the online business since there is little of it and tons of tasks that most of us need to do.
- Do tough and more mind draining stuff early when the mind is fresh.
- Take note of activities that are not supporting success and don’t waste time on them.
- Set goals for the day, write them down and get them done, don’t stray!
9. The More Sites You Have The More Money You Can Make – Once you know the biz and know what to do to make one website or blog succeed, then go for more and as many campaigns as your schedule will allow. It is a fact that unless your Amazon.com (which none of us lone marketers will ever be) then you need to grow in your business.
Launch new sites often and keep adding them, your money and experience will grow!
10. Information Is Good, But Action Delivers – Don’t become an information junkie, where you spend all your time reading the how-to’s and the guides but then do nothing in the end. Take action, it’s the only way to succeed in affiliate marketing, Internet marketing and to make money online!

Well looks like the last Google PR update of 2009 is taking place right now or may all ready be finished. Once again we get to stroke our egos, at least hopefully.
I have personally seen some weird things going on in the last 6 months with the updates, unexpected time frames with updates and mass fluctuations in PR.
This update several of my sites went up 1 level and several went back down to where they were in PR before the last update, which makes sense since the last update did not seem accurate at all.
Again, PR means nothing for rankings and it is just something we all have to check to make ourselves feel good, but if you lost PR or did not gain any at all then don’t worry about, be more concerned with SERP rankings.
Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!!!
I wanted to wish everyone a very happy new year and I hope that you are all ready to work hard and make some serious money online in 2010!!!!!!! I know I am .
It’s been a great year for me and I am ready to make 2010 even better. Remember to be vigilant in setting goals for your online business and following through.
Don’t get too caught up in information to where it takes you off track and makes you stagnant, ACTION IS THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE MONEY ONLINE!!!!!!!
See you all in 2010 and once again thank you so much for all the support and best of luck in all your 2010 endeavors!

Just wanted to let you guys know that I fixed the reply to comments and threaded comments so it is working properly now.
Had to upgrade to a newer version of the theme I was using and then implement the Wordpress Nested comments option in the Settings-Discussion area that is available for 2.8 and higher versions of Wordpress.
I wish I could have used a plugin instead since they come with more options, but none of them seem to be working with this theme, but at least the reply option is back.
Wordpress Nested Comments in Versions 2.8 and Higher
The simplest way to add somment nesting, if your blog theme supports it, as not all of them do is to use the Wordpress feature for nested comments by going to Settings – Discussion and selecting nest comments. Once you select it you will know if it will work with your theme. Or you can try a plugin.
Best Reply To Comments and Threaded Comments Plugins
If you are interested in getting threaded comments or the option for commenters to reply to other comments on your blog here are some good plugins for that purpose:
Wordpress Thread Comments Best! - This is the best one with the most options and integrates the reply feature AND nesting of replies in a threaded fashion.
Features:
1. Admin selection of commenters getting emails when someone replies to their comment.
2. Nesting and threading of replies in a neat design.
3. Admin can reply within the admin dashboard.
4. Automatically provides the @previous commenter name in replies.
Comment Toolbar – Adds comments navigation, quote and reply buttons (with links or images) at the beginning or end of each comment. You can customize every aspect of the toolbar and it now has smooth scrolling as well. One drawback of this one is that nesting and threading of the replies is not included.
Brian’s Nested Comments – Not sure if this one is still supported, but looks interesting.More Interesting Stuff:

I want to wish all my readers very happy holidays and best wishes for a great New Year! I really appreciate all the support that you guys have shown to this blog and especially to my long time loyal readers.
This blog ranks really high in SERPS and get’s a lot of love from Google and a lot of that is because of you guys that make such valuable comments and show the SE’s that you enjoy the content provided via tons of traffic and dynamic participation.
In fact, this blog has now reached a milestone of 3,200 comments…yaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiii!!!!!
In case you have not noticed I finally redesigned the site and I think it looks a lot better than before. If you guys notice anything wrong or not working properly I would appreciate you letting me know, I checked several times, but you know never know what might have been missed.
I think that fresh designs are important for any blog for several reasons. You will find that you will outgrow your design at some point, you may need more features or a more complex design, and the main reason I think that when we first start our blogging we lack the experience to have foresight for features that we might need, or layout elements and as we get better and better at blogging we will always find something that requires a better or different design.
So don’t be afraid to try new designs and change things up a big once you’ve outgrown your current theme. Here is a simple and step-by-step guide where I detail how to painlessly change themes without affecting visitors and traffic at How To Change Blog Theme in the Background.
New Twitter Feature Added to My Blog Comments
I have added the Twitter Link Comments plugin to the comments, so you can add your Twitter username with a link to follow you on Twitter in your comments, enjoy!
Notice: Issue With Reply To Comment Feature
The regular comments are working fine, but the WP Thread Comments plugin that I was using for replies and nested comments is having problems with the new theme as the submit button is missing, so until I find a solution the reply feature will not be there, sorry about that. A total pain as I will have to try to figure out how to make it work or find an alternative. If any techies are reading please help!!!!!!!!!
If you wish to know if I, or another reader has replied to your comments, just select the Subscribe To Comments option and you will be notified via email, sorry for the inconvenience.
Stay Tuned for Great New Posts
I am planning lots of great posts in the coming weeks with new stuff I have discovered for link building, making money online and Internet Marketing…so stay tuned!

Happy Thanksgiving Everybody! I hope you all have a great holiday and eat lots of great food!
On the make money online note, I want to remind everyone of something that is easy to forget…
If you have several sites in your Internet marketing portfolio it is easy to lose track and get too buys and therefore neglect opportunities that are all ready exist.
Take a look at all your sites and how they are monetized. I recently realized that through all the busy work I had overlooked monetizing content pages on a store site I have with any ads. I added Adsense to the site, which has lots and lots of inner content pages, and this site earned $40.50 in the last week from clicks on those ads.
Monetization is an ongoing adventure, all in all testing and experimenting with different affiliate ads, links, banners and venues is the best way to keep the site’s earning potential at it’s optimum.
Often times we focus too much on home pages and neglect all the inner pages of the site that gets traffic from search engines. And remember the more inner pages you have the more traffic potential and the more money you can make from clicks on Adsense or other monetazation venues.
So, check sites that you may have forgotten and all the inner pages on those sites that you have not looked at in some time. They could be making you money, even if it’s a dollar a day in Adsense, that’s an extra $30 per site per month More Interesting Stuff:

Another Google toolbar page rank update has just completed. It’s funny that this follows so soon after Google made a special announcement on their blog advising webmasters to stop obsessing about PR and how they deemed it so unimportant that they removed the PR info from Google Webmaster Tools Dashboards.
Yet they have done another update and while we all know that PR has little to do with ranking, which is what ultimately matters most, it is still cool to check out these PR updates. Several of my newer sites went to PR3 which was nice, though not sure how deserved, but I’ll take it!
When I did some research as to how the toolbar PR increases compare with rankings I found no cause and affect, the sites still rank the same even when they jumped from PR1 to PR2.
So how did you guys do in the PR update? Anybody lose PR, this seems to be going around?More Interesting Stuff:

More fun from big brother! It seems that the FCC has just announced that they will be fining all bloggers and social media posters up to $11,000 PER POST for promoting any company or product for which the bloggers has received monetary compensation or free products without disclousre to the reader.
Apparently in order to avoid this fine all bloggers and those who are posting promotional content on social media sites and their own blogs now need to disclose in the post when any monetary or product compensation for the endorsement took place.
The FCC sites that the reasoning behind this is to protect consumers and provide more transparency for the Internet surfer.
It is unclear as to the parameters of endorsement, I mean if I write a book review and I recommend the book, is that an endorsement, or what FCC considers advertising?
We can thank all the Internet scammers for this, as it seems that more and more fake blogs and false advertisements are being perpetrated on the net and the FCC feels the need to protect visitors.
Also, I’m not sure how easy it will be to enforce these guidelines, and the FTC admits that these are not exactly laws, but just guidelines, they say:
The Guides are administrative interpretations of the law intended to help advertisers comply with the Federal Trade Commission Act; they are not binding law themselves. In any law enforcement action challenging the allegedly deceptive use of testimonials or endorsements, the Commission would have the burden of proving that the challenged conduct violates the FTC Act.
So, I guess we need to watch our posts and paid reviews especially. I do not think this applies to affiliate links, this is only for those posts that endorse a product or company for which you were paid directly.
If you want to learn more about this and read the fine print, here is the link to the FCC doc, it’s a PDF file and the section that pertains to this regulation starts on page 55.
Personally I think this is just more of the government trying to regulate free flow of information on the net, and rescuing buyers from any personal responsibility.
The Internet is all about information, as a blogger do I not have the right for free speech and personal opinion? And as a consumer do you not have the responsibility to be vigilant?
What do you guys think about this?

The fold is a website design term that refers to the area of a webpage that is instantly visible to the visitor without having to scroll either to the sides or up and down. The fold can vary of course, depending on the web platform, the template or the design of the site itself.
Also, remember that there are over 65 web browsers available that all render and display web pages in a different way so the fold can vary from browser to browser.
Use this great free tool to check out how your site looks in all the different browsers: Browser Shots
Optimal Ad Placement – Above the Fold
For marketing and advertising you will want to have your most important 
ads, products and service promotions “Above the Fold”. This may seem elemental, but you’d be surprised how easy it is to forget.
I assume we are all trying to make money online right?
A good amount of money targets should be readily visible without the user having to surf or scroll the site.
Many times we tend to showcase written website content or information, and other “non money” stuff, instead of showcasing the money makers.
This is especially true for blogs that have the 2 sidebars on the right, where the 3rd one is usually not visible without scrolling. Time and again I see blogs that place their ads or Adsense units in that invisible sidebar, which makes it a gamble as to whether or not the user will ever see them and hence be given the opportunity to click on them and make you money!
If you’re main goal is to get subscribers then of course your website content should be the main focus, but if you are trying to make money then the content matters less and optimal ads placement is more important.
And this concept of advertising above the fold does not only apply to banners and ads, but also to the navigation menus and links to your money pages.
Always make sure that your navigation, whether in the sidebar or top nav bar is visible above the fold and slaps them in the face!
Always think maximum exposure to the money targets!
This concept not only applies to the home (index) page but also to the deep or inner pages with articles and written content. Place your ads and products between paragraphs, don’t let them get pushed to the bottom of the page because the user may not ever get there.
Never assume that the user will check out your entire site, the Internet crowd has a short attention span and they are the epitome of instant gratification.

So I’m up at 2Am writing some content for my niche sites, and here comes the infomercial and the opportunity of a lifetime…
Jeff Paul’s Shortcuts to Internet Millions
So what does Jeff promise?
…How bout $1,000,000,000 a week?
…Big cash flooding to your bank account immediately with his “secret Internet shortcuts” with only a couple of hours of work a week
…His system is full proof and the best part….
…He is committed to making me yet another millionaire like he did all those people on the commercial!
Plus…
Once I fork over a nominal fee of $39.95 to Jeff Paul, he will give me prebuilt websites that are ready to earn millions, as well as his Internet Shortcuts secrets and “I don’t have to do a thing”! (direct quote from Jeff)
WOW… So I pay Jeff, and he gives me instant prebuilt websites that will earn me at least $8,000 a week (like it is for all those people on the commercial), but more like $5,000 a day!
…Google won’t care that 2,000 other fools just bought Jeff’s great system, and will also be pushing the same mirror sites which are the exact definition of duplicate content, but that’s okay, because Jeff’s promises me that I can make thousands of dollars a week, instantly, with only a couple of hours of my time.
I don’t even have to learn Internet marketing, because Jeff’s system is totally automated and turn key, so all I have to do is pay Jeff for his “secret Internet shortcuts” system…and then start cashing in on the thousands of dollars that will just flood into my bank account.
And…
…Jeff’s promises that I don’t even have to know anything about the Internet or even how to use a computer! Joe on the commercial just testified that he is making $40,000 a month and he had never even logged onto the Internet before using Jeff’s Internet Shortcuts!
…and the best part? I will get rich while I sleep.
Jeff’s guarantees it so it must be so, right?
…And, Andrea, Bill and James all testified on Jeff’s commercial, that they went from bankruptcy to making $30,000 in their first week with Jeff’s Internet Shortcuts, then I can too!
…Jeff also promises that within a month of buying and using his Internet Shortcuts system I can be on a cruise, while money is flooding into my account.
…And all I have to do is pay Jeff $39.95
Only $39.95 for the secrets to making millions online instantly…what a great deal!
For all the newbies interested in Internet marketing and making money online let me tell you my Internet Shortcut Secret and you can send me half of what Jeff wants for his…
JEFF IS FULL OF SHIT!!!!
The reality of Making Money Online is….
…There are no shortcuts!
…You will not make even $1 in your first week, not even in the first month, and maybe not even in the first 6 months!
…It takes a lot of hard work, dedication, learning of correct skills and experience to make money online!
…Any cruise you take will be straight out of pocket and you will lose a week of valuable work time!
These are the cold hard facts Jeff!
I challenge Jeff Paul to show me one of his turnkey sites that makes him the 1,000,000,000 a week that he claims he makes, but, it can’t be the site where he shoves crap, like his “Internet Shortcuts” scam to desperate and naive people, and I will eat my shirt!
LMFAO!
