Ways to Build Your External Links

When you blog you’ll need to build external links to your blog so that the search engines think you’re worth ranking high. The more links you have pointing to your blog the better it will be for your search engine rankings and you should notice solid traffic over time. Search engine traffic isn’t built over night and you’ll need to spend countless months building links to your blog before you see much of a profit. You should start seeing some profit after a couple months but it takes roughly a year before making any serious money off of a blog. In order to keep your blog alive for a year though and to make it successful you’ll need to constantly build incoming links to your blog. There are different methods for doing this and you should make sure you use them at your own risk and understand the risk involved before trying out each method. Typically the methods are safe but there is a chance that you could get banned. If you want to start getting countless amounts of targeted search engine traffic then you need to start working immediately on building links. There is never too many links as long as they are built naturally.

The first way to begin building backlinks for your site should be through free methods such as article submissions, directory submissions, social bookmarking and blog commenting. All of these methods can bring you a lot of search engine traffic over time but you should make sure that there do-follow links before spending your time submitting. If it isn’t a do-follow link then it still can bring traffic to your blog but typically the link won’t be worth much.

The second way to accumulate external links is through using other sites and blogs that you already own on the same topic and link to it. This is not considered a safe practise but typically if the blogs are on separate IP’s then you should be fine. Many people run multiple blogs and link them together for the SEO benefits and nothing happens so although there is a risk it’s slim. Don’t make the links appear like link farms is vital though but other then that you should be fine. You can also exchange links with other webmasters, which should be done in three way exchanges. You should have a site or blog where you can put other people’s links on and then have them link to the blog that you’re trying to build links for. If you do it this way then you will have one way links in the eyes of the search engines and if there on topic to your blog then they should help your search rankings considerably.

The final way you can build links for your blog is by buying them which although is frowned upon by the search engines it’s still done by most webmasters. As long as the link looks natural then typically you should be safe with the search engines, and if you manage to buy some nice page rank links then you can boost your page rank the next time it updates which is a huge benefit for your search engine rankings.

Making Money Online

Making Money Online

There are countless methods and techniques that one can utilize to earn either a part-time or full-time income, and there are more people everyday striking riches on the internet. Like any other method of making money it definitely doesn’t come easy and you need to work hard in the first initial couple years to ensure you’re set-up for the future. Some of the ways you earn online are short-term quick means of cash and although these are great you should focus on the long-term sustainable income if you plan on working online full-time. Below are some of the methods you can use to earn an online income.

– Paid Surveys
– Selling Products/Services
– Affiliate Sales
– Advertising Sales

Generally these are the most common sought after methods of earning money online and cover basically any topic you could imagine. Paid surveys can be great for new webmasters looking to begin earning online, with surveys the money is slow but you’ll be able to get some income going and you’ll learn more about how the internet runs and how you can make money. I suggest you join a few survey networks as with only joining one you might not make sufficient funds. The more surveys you place yourself in front of the more chance you have of earning income. All surveys will pay you money, but there is definitely the need for doing a nice number of them to earn any substantial money.

For longer term income you can sell your own product or service, this can be done through your own website or through forums and social networking sites. There are countless amounts of people hiring freelancers from forums and social networking sites. If you want to earn an income through selling services and products then you’ll need to ensure you allow proper time to do so. It wouldn’t be honest to tell you that you can expect to earn hundreds of dollars a day from the get-go and generally this will never happen. With a product you need to set-up a website and then work on advertising it to your target audience and then hope you start triggering sales, which usually will happen in time but there are some products that never sell. If you’re offering a webmaster service then money can begin right away through forums, because there are always people looking for freelance webmasters to complete jobs.

If you don’t have your own product and you don’t think you could offer a service then you can do affiliate sales which is basically you selling someone else’s product for a commission. If you think you have sales talent and just are missing the product to sell then affiliate sales might work for you. You can also earn money through leads which is where you send people from your website to another website to sign-up for something free. Leads don’t pay nearly as well as sales but you can get your foot in the door with your affiliate network by setting up a few good lead offers on your site. You need to make sure that your product or lead that you offer on your site is targeted towards your audience or else don’t expect many sales.

The last method to earn money that we’ll be discussing in this article is advertising sales. There are different ways to earn through advertising sales which consist of either joining an ad network like Adsense and using their ads to earn money, or you can find people to advertise your site by yourself. You’ll obviously make more money by selling your own ads on your site but this can be time consuming and often you’ll end up making less due to open spots. I find a good medium is too use Adsense and then sell the odd link or banner on the site for some extra income. This is the best way to utilize advertising income, you just need to make sure that you don’t place too many sold links on your site because your site can be harmed by this, which isn’t what you’re trying to do.

All of these great methods that I’ve walked through with you above are wonderful ways to earn money and you should try them all out. Once you begin to get comfortable you’ll be able to utilize more then one of the methods above on everyone of your sites that you make. You’ll want to focus on one site in the beginning but once you feel you have conquered some of the techniques you need to know then you can begin branching out and making new sites. Millions of people earn money online everyday and it can be done by anyone at any age from any country. If you’re serious about making money online there are tons of resources on the internet that you can use to become more knowledgeable in the area. You should remember to start slow and not expect to even earn a dollar in the first few months. You need to establish your sites and methods of earning before the real money starts coming in, those with the patience will notice success before those who throw away all their projects.

Become an Active Member in the Blogosphere

Become an Active Member in the Blogosphere

You’d actually probably be surprised but if you’re an active member in the blogosphere then it will bring you countless amounts of free traffic, and can make your blog more mainstream. There are tons of blogs created and many more created on a daily basis and you need to make sure that if you plan on blogging that you make yourself stand out from the crowd. There are tons of social networking sites for bloggers that can help create a name for yourself and your blog, and the more time you spend on working on networking the better results you’ll see.

Don’t expect to get thousands of visitors overnight from a couple conversations, but over time if you consistently use the social networking sites for bloggers then you can gain a following of people, especially if your blog is half-decent. Twitter is probably the most popular network for bloggers right now and it allows bloggers to follow the daily internet lives of other bloggers. Anyone can use the site though and you don’t need to be a blogger which means that many blog readers also use the site to follow the popular bloggers. If you make yourself noticeable on Twitter then chances are more and more people will begin to follow you which simply means they can see whenever you post something new to Twitter.

This means you can post a new blog post and then notify everyone on your Twitter about it within seconds which will help gain you a readership. If your knowledge is useful and not just regurgitated nonsense then you will stand a much better shot at retaining the readers that come from the social networking sites.

Another way to become active in the blogosphere to benefit your blog is by commenting regularly on different blogs. I always make sure I comment on certain blogs, as then you begin to gain a friendship with the other blogger which can be great for your blog. This can lead into link exchanges, blog post exchanges and even traffic exchanges through numerous methods. The possibilities are endless and the fact is most bloggers like networking with other bloggers to help each other out. All you need to do is make yourself noticeable by commenting on blogs, and obviously you might not be noticed on a blog with hundreds of comments a day but if you comment on semi popular blogs you can become noticed quickly.

You can also link to other blogs in your blog posts and they will then notice that they’ve been linked to from your blog. This could end up getting you a link in return and depending on which blog links you back it could bring in huge amounts of traffic.

Your best friends are other bloggers when you’re a blogger yourself so make sure you remember that and always be network with other bloggers. Also if you’re asked for help from a fellow blogger you should help them out because you never know what it could lead too. You may end up getting a link from them or even a review from them and it could lead to more traffic. If it’s a service you offer on your blog then you may even get more business from it. Sometimes doing free work leads to higher paying jobs which mean you should always consider doing freebies for some people. If it gets you advertising out of the deal then it’s not working for free anyways, so you need to think of it like this.

There is nothing more important I find then becoming friends with other bloggers in your niche, because although there sort of your competition you can still benefit from helping them out. Blog commenting also builds your backlinks so this is the most important thing to do, because even if it leads nowhere you’ll at least be getting some backlinks. The do-follow backlinks help your search engine placements as well, but most bloggers don’t use do-follow. If you find a do-follow blog then you should bookmark it and comment there at least once a day because then you’re guaranteed to be increasing your backlinks everyday which is something that Google and the other search engines love to see.
