Bloggers, Don’t Quit Your Day Job

admin — Wed, 20 Feb 2008 05:03:22 +0000

Today, I just read about another wannabe blogger who quit their real job to work online. What a shame when they realize that they don’t have a clue about how to make real money online. Go ahead, quit your day job to “work online” as a professional blogger, chances are you will be wishing you had your old job back. It will take a week or two to sink in, but to replace a real jobs income, you need to be in the top 1/10th of the top 1% ofÂ bloggers or better.Â Oh and excuse me if I didn’t count your Ebay gig selling old shit from your basement, that doesn’t really count since even my grandmother could do that.

For all of you folks who want to quit your day job to be a full time blogger, don’t rush into it. I know you want to sit on your ass for days on end and share your stories with the world, but you need to understand that this is a hobby, not a living. If you are thinking about doing it fulltime, then at least be making $100 per day profit, or you will be wasting your time.

So you are still determined? You’ve diversified your online income?Â You have multiple streams of income? In my opinion, anyone who can run an online business that is creating positive cash flow from diversified sources successfully, can probably make a much better living in the real world. If blogging was to die tomorrow, bloggers making a $100 per day could easily get a job that pays triple that because of their unique skill set, is this you?Â Or are you another dreamer?Â If you cannot make a generous amount of money in the real world, then chances are you are not going to do any better on the Internet.

I’m not writing this to hurt your feelings either, instead its a wakeup call to the legions of losers who think they are going to make a living online.Â If you are serious at all about making a living online, pleeeease make sure that you know how to produce a sustainable income that will replace the benefits from your current job.

My final tip for today is for those who still insist on trying to make a living online. If you know how to make a website that can produce $1 per day, each and every day, you should make 100 of those websites to make at least $100 per day. This method does work if you do it correctly. Now imagine if you could only build sites that could make $2 per day!

Why John Chow Is Failing?

admin — Fri, 15 Feb 2008 04:18:44 +0000

If you have not heard about John Chow by now, then you probably are not a serious blogger. For those who do know John Chow, you already know that he has taken blogging to a whole new level. In fact, he’s currently one of the most popular bloggers in North America.

This post is dedicated to why John Chow is failing to connect with regular people. I mentioned John’s blog to several people over the past few months and encouraged them to check out his blog. Most people I referred to his website went there on their own to explore what made him so popular. The majority of feedback I recieved was as expected, they didn’t get why he was attracting a loyal following. They could not relate to the majority of topics that John talked about and felt he abandoned them all together when he talked about how to make money. For those of you who don’t know the theme of John’s website, it is based on “how to make money online”.

You would think with “how to make money online” as your main theme that you would write compelling articles that communicate to both entry level and experienced visitors alike. That certainly was not the feedback that I received, and after exploring his blog over the past 6 months, I agree, he is catering to a mostly advanced crowd of bloggers. While this has earned him a sizable audience, he is neglecting a larger part of the population.

Another oddity about his blog is the overall lack of actual meaningful “make money tips” that he offers. For every one good money making tip he offers, he puts his visitors through about ten of his useless articles. For me, this is a waste of time since my time can be spent more valuable elsewhere. To top off wasting a lot of his visitor’s time, John also insults our intelligence by embedding his affiliate link into everything he touches.Â I’m not against making money, and I think John does of fine job of making money, but frankly the only money being made is by John himself.

So if the paid reviews were not enough, he also litters his blog with more than its fair share of advertisements. The main lesson his visitors can learn is to ignore his writing (if you can call it that) and pay attention to how he has monetized his blog. John will never provide you his behind the scenes techniques for gaining hoards of traffic, instead you will get phrases like “don’t put your eggs all in one basket” and encouragement from him to click his affiliate links that he embeds into all of his posts. Pigeons I say, haven’t you had enough?Â For those of you who read his blog regularily, and are waiting for the answers of how to make money online to be revealed, I’m sorry to say that you only continue to line John’s pockets with more money.

If you really want to learn about making some money, start pissing with the bloggers who choose to tell it like it is. I only read a few blogs on a regular basis, because the majority of make money blogs are complete crap, including www.johnchow.com. My only recommendation today is to read a blogger who I think tells it like it is and provides meaningful information is ????????, visit and learn, then come back to thank me.

Blogging For Profit

admin — Sat, 09 Feb 2008 18:33:31 +0000

Before adding reviews on this website, I’d like to talk about going the distance on blogging. I’m seeing so many bloggers out there, sometimes I wonder how my blog is going to ever get read.Â So like most projects I undertake, I scoured the Internet to find out all the details.

Learning the who, what, where, why andÂ howÂ of blogging is a pretty big task if you dig as deep as I do. Frankly, until 6 months ago I didn’t even really know what a blog was. What I did know is that they were creating a buzz and those who knew how to make it to the top were making tons of cash if they knew how to monetize their blog.While many would be bloggers have done the same as I have, what separates the bloggers who are making money from those who aren’t still boils down to how much homework you did. I studied the blog model for approximately 20 hours a week for 6 months before I really knew what was going on. Sounds rediculus to some that I would spend that amount of time over a 6 month period, but the fact of it is I’ve still only scratched the surface. My theory is learn as much as you can, put a plan together thatÂ utilizes the most valuable information and be persistant. Those are my core key factors for almost every project I take on. By breaking down your way of getting things done will provide you a solid blue-print to use over and over again.

Researching blogs took me so long mainly because there is alot of inaccurate information floating around. For ever 1 truth I learned, I had to comb through 10 half-truths or lies. How do you find out what is true and what’s not? After enough time spent analyzing successful blogs, you develop a 6th sense for credibility. Every blog you visit, you should ask yourself a handful of questions to understand the motivation behind it. I’ve put a quick list of things I instinctually ask myselfÂ while visiting any blog.

Is this a money driven blog or a hobby blog?
How much traffic is this blog receiving?
How much time and effort went into this blog?
Is this blog up-to-date?
What level of professionalism is used on this blog?
Is this blog SEO optimized, and to what level?
What marketing methods does this blog use?
How much money is this blog making?
How much money could this blog be making?
Where is the blogger is located?
Does this blog belong to a blog network?
Does this blogger have other blogs?
What platform (wordpress, etc.) is being used?
Text to graphics ratio?
Keyword density?
How is the blog monetized?
How much is advertising on this blog?
How many outbound links per page average?
Does this blog have multiple authors?
How original is this blog?
Does this blog use original content?
Do I feel compelled to return to this blog?
What are the core topics?
How wide is the niche for this blog?
Does this blogger have other online businesses?
Who are the linking partners?
Does the domain name match the theme of the blog?
Are there any errors on the page?
What is the color scheme of the blog?
Page loadtime?

And the list goes on, to understand where a blog stands on the Internet stage, all of these questions are relevant. I left many other factors I analyse off the list because they are very advanced and will be saved to publish in another post. Nonetheless, if you learn to analyse the factors in this list in a blink of an eye every time you visit someones blog, you will soon start to understand where they stand.

Knowing who you are in a crowd with makes it much easier to know how to stand out. If everyone is wearing “red” and you want to stand out, then perhaps you should consider wearing “blue”. This simple example illustrates the concept of being distinguished, an absolute must if you are going to succeed.Â The bigger the crowd, the more creative you need to be in order to stand out.

So what’s unique about GetMoreReviews? It looks like many other blogs or news post sites out there and does not appear to offer anything substantially unique on the surface. Sure it looks organized, professional and well monetized, but does it actually make money? Sure it makes money, in fact profits are growing everyday. It makes money because every aspect of GetMoreReviews is geared to drive profit.

First off, the concept of GetMoreReviews is to provide an additional resource to folks browsing the Internet looking for more information about a product or service that they were considering buying. Typically, users will head to the major review sites to get the “review benchmark”, which is essentially a review that they will compare to all others they read.

Secondly, once they read a few high profile reviews, they will continue to search for another authoritive opinion. That’s where I come in, by providing a fresh look at the product. Once they read my review, they are further prepared to make the purchase. A few strategically placed price comparison charts and embedded affiliate link to each each vendor who carries the product or service and you can soon see how GetMoreReviews makes money.

If the reader is not prepared to buy, perhaps they will stay and read other product reviews here or click one of my ads. This is often the case, thanks to Google Adsense. In any case, I’m making money! While this whole process seems straight forward, it does have its pitfalls, but continues to work great for me.

The main lesson here is that GetMoreReviews is not really a blog at all, although it uses aÂ blog platform. I’ve taken some of the virtues of blogging and combined them with affiliate marketing. This hybrid approach is what makes this website unique and effective.

I will continue to pepper this site with insightful articles like this one amongst the reviews I will publish here. This will attract bloggers who really want to know how to make money online and regular folks looking for more information on products and services. A happy and profitable co-existance.

Make Money On Your Blog

admin — Sat, 29 Sep 2007 19:20:46 +0000

Bloggers are great at writing relevant articles and posting topics of interest to attract readers. Utilizing their social networking skills to capture an audience that is often loyal and receptive, but that’s not enough. The missing ingredient is “money”, while some bloggers have monetized their blogs well, others have failed.

A blog that makes money is likely to survive longer than one that does not. Knowing how to make money from your blog is a key factor in determining its survivability. Blogs that make money are by nature closer to the front of the pack and benefit from the inherent traffic that comes from their natural position in the search engines. A high natural search engine position produces new traffic for a blog, which creates an environment for making money.

A blogger needs to view their blog not only as a publicity medium for their message, but also how to direct the traffic the blog receives. Controlling the traffic of a blog gives the blog owner the ability to profit and grow.Â Tailoring every element of a blog to make money and directing the profits to the blog owner can make the difference between success and failure of the blog.

Controlling traffic is an art and skill that comes with experience. Utilizing tools like Google Analytics can enhance your understanding of how to control your traffic. Study how and where your traffic comes from toÂ discover your blogs impact on the Internet. Once you have an idea where the majority of your traffic is coming from, put in place a strategy to increase the top 3 sources. Increasing your top 3 traffic sources can be easy once you know what they are. If your blog receives natural search engine placement for certain keywords that are producing traffic, then consider adjusting your blog to be tailored more around those keyword topics. This provides a great head start in the traffic game if executed properly. If your blog is receiving traffic from a particular directory that you submitted to, visit the directory and learn everything you can about it. If they have link commenting or tagging available, ensure your link is properly outfitted to gain even more valuable traffic.

Making money on every aspect of your blog is not as simple as some bloggers would have you believe.Â To make a sustainable income, a blogger’s skills must be diversified and calculated. That doesn’t mean that the less intelligent folks don’t have a chance either, it just means that you need to be prepared and have good timing.
