Ways to Build Your External Links

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.

How to Make Money by Blogging

How to Make Money byBlogging Millions

 

of people around the world have started blogging, most of them unsuccessful but there are still tons of people who have been successful in making money through blogging. Some bloggers have earned millions of dollars already and we’re only getting into the beginning of blogging which is the scary part. If you want to earn money online then you should take up blogging immediately, it’s not difficult at all and you can earn tons of sustainable income. Blogging is simply writing about a topic you have interests or expertise in and can write on it daily. Typically you need to write daily so the topic should be broad enough to write content on it for years, but then again not to broad that it doesn’t fit into a niche market. With millions of blogs on the internet you need to make sure you niche your blog enough that it fits into a niche market and not a general market. There are already enough authority blogs in the general market and if you plan on making money

 

then you’ll need to do something better then anyone else has done to date. Now with millions of dollars being spent on blogging by some companies you can expect that some niches aren’t going to make you any money at all because they’ve already been owned by a big company. You should look for something you have expertise in and that fits into a niche, meaning if you like sports don’t make a general sports blog because it won’t make any serious money for you. Instead choose the sport you like the most and then become an authority for that sport, or better yet narrow it down to your favourite sports team and keep the world updated on how they do. If you can narrow your blog range down like we have just down above with sports then you’ll have a much better chance of making money through blogging. Once you have your topic you should then get the domain and hosting to set-up your blog and then begin setting it up. There isn’t much to do in set-up except for choosing plug-ins and a theme basically. Once you have done your set-up process and are happy with the looks of your blog then you should begin posting once a day. If you’ve narrowed your blog down for instance to the Toronto Blue Jays then you’d write a game recap on the days they play and on the days they don’t you’d write about a player or something going on with the team. It’s simple to think up topics for a niche such as your favourite sports team and you shouldn’t face problem with the content as it’s the least of your worries. Once you’ve been adding content for about a month and traffic is starting to become steady then you can start implementing the techniques to earn money. The first thing you should do is sign-up for

Google Adsense

and then implement some of there ads onto your blog. They pay on a cost-per-click basis which means you get paid generally $.XX amount per click. Depending on your blogs topic you might get paid as little as $.0X per click or as much as $XX.XX per click, this number is strictly based on the topic of your blog. For instance a celebrity blog receives low amount per click but a lot of people click the ads whereas a medical blog will receive higher amount per click but a lot less amount of clicks generally. You should focus more on what you expertise in though and less on the amount per click, because without good content you won’t have traffic, and without traffic you won’t make any money. Once you’ve added your Adsense ads you can begin looking at the other possible monetization methods of your blog. Usually the second step to making money on your blog is to implement some affiliate leads or products. Generally if you write a review for the product and post your affiliate link it can earn some sales for you depending on how targeted your traffic is. You can also sell banners and links on your blogs, either through the sidebar or in your blog posts. If you sell the links in blog posts it’d better for the SEO of your blog because you don’t want many outgoing links on your homepage. You can also join review sites which pay you to write a review on your blog. You can earn quite bit money by adding reviews to your blogs from sites like Payu2Blog. There are literally tons of methods you can utilize to monetize your blog and the more you use the better chance you have of making money. You need to ensure that you don’t overdo the ads and affiliate links though because many visitors are turned off by excessive monetizing. People understand you need to make an income, but when you make it obvious they aren’t usually impressed, so you should try camouflaging your ads into your blog posts. The most important to making money through blogging is through good content and promotion. If you don’t have content that makes people stick around then you don’t stand a chance, but if you take the time to write good content then you’ll stand a good chance. Blogging takes months before it begins earning substantial income and you should make sure you allow your blog time to earn you money before giving up on it. It doesn’t take long to write a post each day and if you can do this then the money will come.

Highest Paying Niches to Work in

Highest Paying Niches to Work in

There are thousands upon thousands of niches you can work in and some of them are obviously more competitive then others which are why choosing your niche is important. Another important reason of choosing a good niche is that some niches just don’t have the potential too make money like some of the other niches out there. Today we’re going to look at some of the highest paying niches and how you can make money in those niches by blogging.

Health

The health niche is one of the most competitive niches on the internet and companies spend millions on promoting there websites on the internet in this niche. You’ll have plenty of opportunities to make some money in this niche though including pay-per-click ads, private ads and affiliate sales. You can make upwards of $1 per click on Adsense in this niche which is incredible as most niches pay $.10 or less per click. There is also a magnitude of products to sell in this niche and they usually range in the $100+ price range which allows room for high commission payments. If you can manage to build traffic in this niche then you stand an excellent chance at making some serious money in the health niche.

Finance

With the world’s economy lowering on a daily basis right now there is no better time to get into the financial market online. The competition is very stiff in this market and gaining a market share is nearly impossible, but in a billion dollar industry if you get a fraction of a percent of the market share then you’d be laughing. Commissions are amongst the highest out there in this niche as well as you can make money from credit card applications, payday loan applications and much more.

Adult

If you want to leave the mainstream industry and move into the adult industry then there is tons of money to be made. You can make blogs very quickly in this niche and content isn’t as important as the mainstream niches. You can get away with small blog posts and still make a nice income if you build links and traffic to your blog. Sponsors pay up to $100 per paying customer or you could also take a lifetime percentage per customer although $100 per person is usually more profitable and you get it at one time.

These three niches in my opinion offer the most opportunity for making a full-time income and if you can draw in the traffic then they’ll spend money. It’s proven that these three niches are amongst the top for people spending money in, which means that if you can achieve traffic you’ll usually make money. It needs to be targeted qualified traffic in order to make money, but if you want the best chance of succeeding online and don’t know where to start then I recommend starting with one of these niches. They are very competitive, but a lot of niches these days are so you need to find out how to better then your competitors.

the potential clients feel the sincerity hidden in the articles. In other
words, such positive impression would definitely lead to improved
business for your corporate.

Commercial blogs can be used as a powerful medium to
increase company’s credibility

While adding the blogs, it is very crucial to keep the primary goal of
the blog in mind, which almost inevitably is to up hold the reputation
of the company by increasing the credibility through the blogs. This
can be done effectively by replying sincerely to the feedback of the
clients on the blog. This will inevitably result in an impression of
enhanced customer service which in turn will encourage the customers
to continue their business with your company, which is nothing but
increased profits.

Update the blog regularly

By updating the blog regularly, you can be assured of continued
loyalty of the customers to your blog and hence to your products and
services. Regular visits by your readers imply that you will have ample
of opportunities to impress your customers with additional news and
information about your products and services.

Be openhanded with links

blogging greatly depends on the success of links. It always pays to be
liberal with links and back links to your corporate blog. This will result
in increased traffic which would lead to additional business.

Many big companies have recognized commercial blogging as a cheap

with commercial blogging is that, the companies have to shell a lot of
money in avoiding articles or blogs which could hamper the reputation
of the company.
