Amazon Affliate Marketing!!-Ok I am too lazy to research a niche area

Amazon Associate Affliate Marketing!!

Ok here's your lazy mind telling you: "I am too lazy to research on a nicher area and find out which product has best potential for profit through affliate marketing"

But the truth is profit will only follow effort!! So you have to take the effort to find out more and research...That is what differentiates the rich and poor. Going out of your comfort zone and trying something new.

But what i can do for you here is to show an example of how to join an affliate marketing program:
http://affiliate-program.amazon.com/gp/associates/join

Amazon is one of the more prolific and famous affliate marketing group where they give a percentage cut of 5% or more for each book/CD or article sold!

But you will need a website or blog. If you are lazy, you can go blogger: https://www.blogger.com/start to get a free blog.

Next sign up at:
http://affiliate-program.amazon.com/gp/associates/join

After getting an account, go http://affiliate-program.amazon.co.uk and sign in.

Go to widgets.amazon.co.uk and choose the advertisement you prefer most.

Select the parameters you want (Colour, banner size and content etc.) and copy the html code.

paste it on your blog template or entry and viola! you have done a simple form of affliate marketing!!

Now the key is to get high site traffic, good products and convince people to buy!!


Affliate Marketing-Part 2

To Recap:

Start with an Idea.
Do your Keyword Research.
Test the market on a small scale.

Last week we did some preliminary research, using the free trial at WordTracker. This week we'll look at more in-depth Keyword Research and Competition Analysis, and how to use that data to develop your website or advertising campaign.

Our example keywords were "tv" and "television".
You can see the results that we got from WordTracker in last week's issue.

Out of the initial results, the two keywords that stood out to me were "plasma" and "lcd". You'll remember that this research was prompted by my interest in the local media promotions of the new style televisions that are now available - and that we found affiliate programs for these types of TV's.

Now we are ready to "dig deeper" into PLASMA and LCD, so that we can determine how many people are searching for these products, how they are searching for them, and what the competition looks like.

Here is our revised list from the initial results, containing only the keywords that are associated with PLASMA or LCD:


plasma tv 2566
plasma television 340
plasma televisions 298

lcd tv 1867
lcd television 375
lcd televisions 349


Two things to note:


1) WordTracker shows us the approximate number of DAILY searches. Overture, or any tool using Overture's database, shows us the approximate number of searches done in a month. In addition, the numbers will vary as each tool queries different sources to gather this data.

This is NOT an exact science ;)


2) You should never use a "general" keyword in your marketing campaigns - whether you are promoting via SEO or PPC, or any other method. General words, such as "TV" or "television", simply do not convert well. Very specific keywords, or search terms, are much more focused - and more likely to attract an interested, and perhaps even pre-sold, buyer.

In fact, "sharp aquos 26 inch lcd tv" is a better keyword to use than just "lcd tv". The person that typed that into Google or Yahoo KNOWS what they are looking for, and now they are looking for more information or for the best deal. They are more than likely "pre-sold" on this exact model.

Obviously those specific or obscure search terms receive less searches per day or month than the more general terms. However, they convert MUCH better, so it's a good trade-off ;) But more about how you can use them ALL in your marketing campaign later - for now, let's continue the Keyword Research.

I'm going to start by looking into the LCD TV's, because as you'll remember, I was specifically interested in the Phillip's TV that is being heavily promoted on television lately...

I generally use Keywords Analyzer for more in-depth brain-storming, or I purchase one-day access to WordTracker. Since I already own the Keywords Analyzer program, it is easiest for me to start with - and in the case that I want to analyze the data to every extreme, I will also use WordTracker's paid service and then import those results into Keywords Analyzer. More on that later as well...

When I type LCD into Keywords Analyzer, this is what I see:
http://www.selfstartersweeklytips.com/keywords/lcd.html
(click to open the screenshot in a new window)

As you can see, KA shows me 100 related keyword phrases, as well as:

- Number of searches per month
- Number of results in the search engines
- Number of Adwords & Overture Campaigns

I can "dig deeper" by selecting any one of those keyword phrases, then right click on it and choose "new search". This will allow me to see 100 more keyword phrases containing the phrase that I chose from the main list.

I chose to look into "lcd tv", which has over 50,000 searches a month.
According to WordTracker, approximately 1,867/day.


From these results, you can see that Sharp and Sony LCD TV's are very popular, and that there are many people coming online to search for Reviews. There are a couple of things you want to do, though, before you dive in head first and create a full-blown website to promote Sharp LCD TV's:

1) Analyze the Competition

and 2) Compare Affiliate Programs

Also, it's worth noting that there were a lot of interesting keywords in our research so far, and you can easily "dig deeper" into each of those and most likely come out with some really great results to work with. For the sake of this example we'll stick to LCD TV's - focusing on Sharp. You should keep all of your research data, though, as it may come in handy as you proceed ;)

Let's take a look at the Competition...

To dig just a little bit deeper, I did a search for "sharp lcd" within Keywords Analyzer. You can view those results here:
http://www.selfstartersweeklytips.com/keywords/sharp-lcd.html
(click to open the screenshot in a new window)

What we see here:

There are 4,994 searches per month for "sharp lcd tv".
There are 1,052 searches per month for "sharp lcd television".

There are 50+ Adwords Campaigns running for both of those phrases, but only 19-27 currently running at Overture.

Within Keywords Analyzer, I can highlight "sharp lcd tv" and look at the most commonly used URL's in those Adwords ads. I do this because I am curious to know if most of the advertisers are affiliates, and if so - if they are affiliates through the same merchant, or different merchants.

This would be a good place to find a variety of affiliate programs to research ;)

I saved those results so that you could see them as well:
http://www.selfstartersweeklytips.com/keywords/sharp-lcd-links.html
(click to open the screenshot in a new window)

I see plasmabay.com, bestbuyplasma.com, tigerdirect.com - and plenty of others. From here, you can visit each of those sites and take a look at the Affiliate Program that they offer.


You can also look at the Titles of those ads that are showing on Adwords for "sharp lcd tv":
http://www.selfstartersweeklytips.com/keywords/sharp-lcd-titles.html
(click to open the screenshot in a new window)


It's obviously very competitive (that must mean the advertisers are making money!!), so let's move away from Adwords and look at the SEO potential. Getting a top ten listing - for free - beats paid advertising any day of the week ;)

Again:

There are 4,994 searches per month for "sharp lcd tv".
There are 1,052 searches per month for "sharp lcd television".


If you go to Yahoo.com and type "sharp lcd tv" into the search field, you'll see that the first organic result is SharpUSA.com

You can see how many "backward links" they have by typing:

link:http://www.sharpusa.com

... into the search box. Backward links are links pointing to that URL (not to the "site" but to that specific page, which in this case is the main page of the site) FROM another URL (or web page).

The number of backward links that you can obtain from relevant web pages has an effect on how well that page ranks in the major search engines. This is in addition to your "on-the-page optimization", so you'll want to make sure that you know how to optimize a web page correctly - and then you can work on gaining the number of Inbound or Backward Links that you will need to improve your ranking.


Back to our research, SharpUSA.com has almost 2,000 backward links. If you search for "sharp lcd tv" (without quotes) on Google.com, the 3rd result is: avdeals.com/sharplcd/sharplcd.htm .

We have to go back to Yahoo.com to find out how many backward links this URL has, because Google does not give an accurate number. In Yahoo's search box, you can type:

link:http://www.avdeals.com/sharplcd/sharplcd.htm

They show 31 backward links for this URL. You probably only see 3 of those results. You'll have to click "repeat the search with the omitted results included" to see them all. You'll find that most of those links come from their own domain (avdeals.com).

If we go back to Google and look at the 4th result for "sharp lcd tv" (without quotes), we find: sharp.co.uk/ . Again, we switch back to Yahoo and look at the backward links for this URL.

There are over 2,000.

So how is it that the 3rd page listed only had 31 backward links, yet ranked higher than the 4th page which had over 2,000?

Good question!

There are a lot of variables, including the on-the-page optimization factors, but one thing that we could look at is how relevant those backward links are, and what the anchor text of each link is.


Again, I should stop and say that I am NOT an SEO Expert. You'll want to give serious consideration to Sharon & Roy's class if you are interested in learning in-depth SEO strategies: http://www.iwon.net/seo/class-description/


Looking at that 3rd result (avdeals.com/sharplcd/sharplcd.htm) and their backward links, I noticed that the first one that Yahoo listed had an image linked to this page, with the alt text "Sharp LCD TV". This is what you call "anchor text" - it is either in the "alt" code of an image that is linked to your page, or it is the text that is linked to on a web page.

Most of their other pages contain a link that says "Back to Sharp LCD Main". Again, using the keywords "sharp lcd" in their anchor text.


Most of the backward links for sharp.co.uk/ are using the anchor text "Sharp" or a variety of other product names and keywords.


Just to go a step further, let's look at the 5th result on Google.com for "sharp lcd tv", which is: danchan.com/feature/2001/04/28/sharplcd/sharplcd.htm

Using Yahoo to look up the backward links for this URL, I find 149. Most of those, again, are from their own domain (danchan.com).


My (non-expert, super-quick) conclusion:


You could easily obtain a top 5 listing on Google for "sharp lcd tv" with 30-100 relevant backward links that use "sharp lcd tv" in the anchor text.

By "relevant" I mean that the links point to YOUR page from another web page that has relevant content (about sharp, or tv's or LCD)... that is not on your domain. A link from any other relevant site - to yours.

Yahoo results do seem a bit more competitive - especially with three large blocks containing sponsors links at the very top of their results page for this term.

Interestingly, you'll remember that Overture (which is PPC Ads displayed on Yahoo, among other major search engines) was less competitive than Adwords. So if I were to proceed with this project... I would optimize for a top ten listing on Google, and pay for sponsored listings on Yahoo.

Another point to make: Since Adwords is very competitive for this term, yet it is relatively easy to optimize for a top ten listing in Google's search results... you may do very well to create a Review page on Sharp LCD TV's and use Adsense to earn commission from click-through's to the other advertisers ;)


You can also go back and follow these same steps to research the keyword phrase: "sharp lcd television". Or any number of search terms that you run across in your keyword research.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There is a lot more that could be said here, but I'm about ready for a coffee break - how about you? :) Let's pick up here in next week's issue, where I'll show you how to use "Competition" to your advantage... and talk more about your Link Strategy.

Please keep in mind that the above keywords and details were only used here for the sake of example. Plug your own keywords in, in place of the ones used here, and you may have a brand new 'profitable website' idea by the end of the day! (That said, I am not planning to promote Sharp LCD TV's myself, so by all means - go for it, if you like!)

Affliate Marketing- How to do it!

Affliate Marketing! Make Profits and results!

Affliate Marketing is about marketing someone's products or services on your website or blog and getting a commission or cut when people buy these products or services through your webpage link or website. It can be highly successful if you have a niche area in which you are top for search traffic. So now what you need is an idea for a niche area you want to do afflaite marketing for.

Once again, a disclaimer: I collated all these from wonderful people who offer this free (and i dun have to reinvent the wheel) So read on and enjoy!

Finding an Affiliate Program to work with, or coming up with your own idea for a product-based website, is the easy part. Honestly, it is. You can simply visit one of the many Affiliate Networks on the internet, and browse through the programs until you find one that catches your interest. Or you could just as easily start with something YOU are passionate about or experienced with. All you have to do is PICK a topic, or a product - and you can fine tune your plans for the project from there.

Often, when people think of a great idea for a website - or any type of business, they are immediately put off by the amount of competition. DO NOT let that deter you. I'll share with you how I use the amount of competition to my advantage in any project...

The First Step --> Research

Once you get an idea in mind, you can easily determine whether it has profit potential. Your very first step is Keyword Research.

There are a lot of tools that you can use, and a variety of ways that you can accomplish the task. I'll share with you what works for me...

I use a combination of WordTracker and Keywords Analyzer.

Keywords Analyzer accesses the Overture database, and is an *excellent* brainstorming tool. It not only shows you the number of searches for any given keyword or phrase, but also shows you the number of results (web pages) in the search engines - AND the number of Adwords & Overture pay-per-click campaigns that are currently running for that keyword/phrase.

And actually - this is just a TASTE of what kind of data you can pull from the program. You can even analyze the PPC Ads that are running on Adwords and Overture for each of the keywords: see the headlines they are using, the URL's of their landing pages, etc. As you can imagine, this is helpful in determining if most of the competing advertisers are promoting the same product ;)

(If you are researching keywords for a PPC campaign, you can also wrap all of your keywords in "quotes" and [brackets] ... from right within the Keywords Analyzer program!)

You will get a very good idea about the profit potential of any product or market - in a matter of minutes... and "at a glance". Quite literally, it will show you hundreds of related keywords & phrases - and enough data to get a basic idea of how steep the competition is... or not.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I generally start with the Free Trial at WordTracker. I type in the most general keyword related to the topic or the product that I am researching. This gives me an idea of whether I want to dig deeper into the research, or drop it and choose another product/topic altogether.

That intitial decision is easy: I am looking for a decent number of searches (ie how many people are looking for this product, or searching for things on this topic)... and I am looking for a good selection of keywords/phrases used.


--> At this point in the process, I am *completely* open-minded. I may or may not have chosen a product or an affiliate program - - or I may have already chosen the product, and am looking for a market or an angle from which to promote it. It simply does not matter, as there is no wrong way to do this.

Pick a word - any word - and dig in!


Let me give you an example. Off the top of my head, I'll pick "beanie babies". When you type this in to WordTracker's free trial, these are the results that you get:


beanie babies 1323
ty beanie babies 317
sell beanie babies 83
selling beanie babies 62
price guide for beanie babies 52
value of beanie babies 44
beanie babies value 41
beanie babies price list 40
how many beanie babies are there 30
beanie babies current value 26
buying beanie babies 24
beanie babies values 23
beanie babies for sale 22
ty beanie babies canada 22
uk beanie babies 22


My thoughts:

Looking over the list as a whole, it seems to me that most people are interested in selling their beanie babies, or finding out the current value of their collection. You can usually get a pretty good idea of what the 'majority' are "thinking" when they use certain search terms by looking at a group of related keywords like this.

I also noticed that aside from the general search term (beanie babies, with over a thousand searches a day), the search numbers drop off dramatically. There's not a lot of room for "digging deeper" here, obviously.


Out of curiosity, I checked "beanie babies" on Google

The first result is Ty's official site.
The first Adwords ad that I see is:


All Beanie Babies Cheap
Beanies as low as $.99. All
TY In Stock. Orders Ship Same day
beaniewonderland.com/


Pretty tough competition for a limited market. I would either a) drop it and move on, or b) come up with a very creative way for people to cash in on this 'dead hot market' - and develop or promote from that angle.


Let's look at another one. This time I'll do "tv" - and I'll tell you why. For the last several months I've noticed a growing number of commercials on television about new TV's. Now, I'm not a "tv person", so forgive my ignorance - but one that comes to mind is the flat one that looks like a picture hanging on the wall, and it has an ambience color effect.

Here it is - I found it by searching 'ambience color effect tv flat' on Google:
http://www.audioholics.com/cedia/cedia2004/philipsLCDambilight.php

(You can laugh at me now, I dont mind :p)


Anyway, in addition to those commercials... I noticed a whole new section at Wal-Mart for these flat TV's in their electronics department - and it was a very large and prominent display.

Anytime I see media and local retailers promoting the same type of products, I pay attention. They pay BIG dollars to get consumers interested... and you can easily step in and capitalize on this situation, where the buyers are "pre-sold" and coming online to get more information and find the best deals!


Back to the keywords, when I type "tv" into WordTracker's Free Trial, I see:


direct tv 9793
tv guide 8106
court tv 4827
tv listings 4537
tv 3478
as.seen.on.tv 2888
plasma tv 2566
satellite tv 2099
food tv 2091
lcd tv 1867
mad tv 1832
internet tv 1562
tv stands 1508
dish tv 1424
fox tv 1292


And I'll also go back and check the results for "television":


television 8888
televisions 1446
television without pity 486
interactive television 466
abc television 450
television reviews 424
television listings 417
internet television 379
lcd television 375
lcd televisions 349
plasma television 340
reality television 334
plasma televisions 298
television schedule 288
sony televisions 284


There is obviously PLENTY of room to "dig deeper" and research each of those terms individually. My next step, before immersing myself into days and days of in-depth Keyword Research, would be to make sure there is an Affiliate Program of some sort related to the topic.


I head straight to Google and type in: "plasma tv"+affiliate

The reason that I typed it in that way is because "tv affiliate" is going to bring up a lot of results about 'network affiliates' and 'tv affiliates' that have nothing to do with Affiliate Programs. So I chose "plasma tv" (putting it in quotes to tell Google to look for the entire phrase - not just the two words individually) and added "+affiliate" (with no spaces) to tell Google that I wanted to see web pages that contained "plasma tv" and "affiliate" within their content.


http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&q=%22plasma+tv%22%2Baffiliate

Bingo!

So you have a market, and you have Affiliate Programs. And you can determine all of that in under 10 minutes!

Next, you would look over several of the Affiliate Programs and determine which offers the best products, the best payouts, etc. You can compare this to the search terms you found at WordTracker, too, as you go... and then choose the program that you feel would convert well, that already has a decent demand, and that has a decent commission rate.

Now you are ready to REALLY dig in to your Keyword Research. You need to find out if you should promote a certain brand of television. A certain type of television. Whether you should promote it via PPC, or build a specific kind of website so that you can promote the products via free search engine listings.

In this next step, you'll really begin to dig into the keywords, and then work from there into Competition Analysis. By the time you look at this topic/product from EVERY angle, you will KNOW what your next step should be.

I'll tell you what I found when I was doing the research for my newest site. I found that there were A LOT of web pages for each of the keywords I looked at. I also found that there were A LOT of pay-per-click ads running for those keywords. I temporarily marked PPC off of my list - pending more in-depth research - and took a closer look at the SERPs (search engine results pages - or free listings on Google, Yahoo, MSN, etc).

What I found: Most of the web pages were very poorly optimized, and looked like homemade "geocities"-type websites. It wasnt nearly as competitive as it first appeared. In fact, after more research... it was going to be downright EASY to get Top 10 listings for most of my keywords.

In fact, ANYONE - with no prior experience whatsoever - could grab a cheap website template from BasicTemplates.com and create a better website than most that I found.


I'll close for now, and in next week's issue we'll talk more about in-depth Keyword Research and Competition Analysis, and how to begin using it all to create your website or advertising campaign.

I'll show you how to determine the best angle from which to enter a market (even a supposedly "saturated market"), and how to out-perform your competitors!

Credit Card and Insurance Debts

Credit card and Insurance Debts!!

Credit cards and insurance debts are certainly one of the greatest liabilities if you do not know self-discipline and how the credit card actually works.

I mean 24% interest a month on credit cards is just way too exorbitant and very silly to rack up. I mean, a short term loan from anyone would normally only incur 5 to 10% interest a YEAR...

More to come on how to use credit cards as an asset and not a liability as i research! Good Luck on your path to financial freedom.Credit cards are good only if you use them well, but debts and loans are not, just remember!

What is Financial Freedom and Why It is important!!

What is Financial Freedom and Why It is important!!

Financial Freedom means not having to worry about your state of financial affairs, for example, worrying about whether you have the money to pay the rent or loan for the house, whether you have the money to put the next dinner on the table.

Unless you are a rich scion or heiress, likelihood is your financial freedom comes through working a job (active income). However, that is not true financial freedom. That 'freedom' is chained or fettered to the manacles of work. That means you are not truly free. If you stop working; without an income, who would provide for the meals and daily lifelihood activities?

While this underlines how important a job is, it also highlight how vulnerable we are as 'slaves' to our work. That is why, if possible, we should always gear ourselves to put some effort into creating sources of passive income, and thus reduce our reliance on active income work as our means of livelihood. Only then, can we truly consider ourselves 'financially free' because our sources of passive income do not always require us to work. We should control the sources of passive income, instead of work, our active income, controlling us.

Frankly, the main question to ask ourselves is why do we always work for an active income when we can channel the effort to build passive income streams? Are we stupid? No... Here are some reasons: some of us may like our work, some of us may not have been exposed to opportunities to get them out of the low-paying work quagmire, some of us are afraid to try, some of us do not have the capital to try.

Having observed and read abit,I came to the conclusion that these are the mentality differences that differentiate the rich from the poor. So if you are not getting where you want to be financially with your mindset now, it means it's time to change!!

That is why i have set up this free blog to share my ideas and work on the ideal of 'financial freedom' as well. I hope through the treasure trove of all the different posts, you will be able to find a niche or an idea to spark your passion or journey onto to financial freedom as i embark on mine as well.

I mean for example, a doctor who is always busy at work, he may earn alot but what if he was really financially free, he would then be able to do charity work, maybe even open a charity hospital and really 'work', knowing that he is helping the sick because he really wants to and is not doing it for money. Financial freedom gives him flexibility to do charity work and be truly free from the routine 9-5 dreary corporate work.

When we work, we all actually work towards financial freedom, or economic emancipation, as the economists term it. Thus, We do know financial freedom is important, but often we do not try the enlightened approach of trying to get passive incomes. We hold on only to the familiar and fear what we have not had experience of. That is such a pity. As Socrates said: " the unexamined life is not worth living" and the common anecdote of "fortune favours the brave", perhaps we should all just try businesses or investments.

Otherwise, financial freedom will just be airy-fairy talk.

For more ideas on passive income: check out my other posts!! Thank you for the time spent reading this. Good luck on the journey to financial freedom!

Middle Capital Level-Passive Income-Forex accounts

Forex? Forex as an investment!!$$$

Forex stands for foreign exchange. It is about trading currencies where the basic premise is profit is made when you buy currencies (say the JY, GBP, USD) and sell it when the exchange rate changes such that your currency is worth more.( for example, if you use Euros to buy 5000 USD at a exchange rate 1.4500 USD to 1 euro and sell when the exchange rate is 1.4600, you get back more Euros. Another key thing about Forex trade is that they practice leverage (ranging from 100 to 1000 to 1), allowing you to magnify your capital, and thus your profits and losses (which is highly dangerous).

Thus, this puts forex in the category of middle capital and risky. This means that you must be prepared to suffer a loss or even potentially a wipe out in your capital. Hence, the term risk capital is used. It is capital that you are willing to lose.

That settled, the truth about forex is that experienced and tech-savvy traders have been known to get up to 1000% on their capital in 1 month on the upside. Needless, the downside is your account being closed automatically when you have insufficient capital (called margin) to maintain your account (i.eL your capital being wiped out to at least less than 60%)

Hence, proceed with this awareness.

Low Entry Levels Of Passive Income Opportunities

Examples of low entry level incomes i have managed to come across are listed below (once again we must give credit to those who make it possible, the creators of all those websites, programs, ideas etc.)

1. Having advertisements on your blogs/websites
2. Doing affliate marketing
3. Doing network marketing
4. Web business

Having adverts would mean allowing advertisers such as Google Adsense (check it out) to put ads on your blog and pay you per click (PPC- pay per click) that visitors click on.

Affliate marketing is marketing someone else's products or services on your website/ blog and getting a cut of the profit or comission (an example would be amazon.com who gives a 10% cut)

Network marketing is marketing the products or services as above BUT you get the full profit and you have people under you that do this too and you get a cut of their profits (in this case, having a big group where you are at the top of the group means big money)

Web business means selling your own products or services, such as designing web templates (www.whateverlife.com) or like online shops that sell hand-made earrings or flower bouquets.

You have to decide which suits you or which interest you the most. But in any case, the key to online websites is attracting people traffic, which is never easy (now you know that, help out and click on the ads and buy products occasionally k, it's like doing a good deed).

Click to read more about each of these individually and exactly how to do them, step by step:

Passive Incomes-What is it and how to achieve it.

All right, this is just some random entry for me to explain the concept of passive income, but i hope you will find the insights useful.

Passive income means money that comes even when you do not work for it. It is income for what you have done. Passive income pay for your initial investment of time and not for the period of time you spend. Which is good or bad, depending on how you perceive it. To be rich, the only way is to gather streams of passive income. Just look at any rich guy and what he does. Examples are property magnates like Donald Trump or stocks guru like Warren Buffett.

All sources of Passive Income can be categorised into 4 main areas:

1. Investments
2. Intellectual Property
3. Real Estate
4. Business

Investments refer to money that you put with people or company or exchanges (say stocks, warrants, forex) and try to make it grow.

Intellectual Property refer to money royalties that comes from products you have created and there is a market demand for it (for example books, songs, even blogs that are paid to post)

Real Estate refers to property or land that you have bought and rented out to people thus earning a rental income

Business refers to the act of selling products (that may or may not be yours) and earning a profit from it (say a florist, shopkeeper, amazon.com and ebay.com)

For our purposes, passive income can be further classified into

1. high capital-intensive entry level
2.low capital-intensive entry level

This means that some opportunities require the person interested in doing it to put in a large amount of money first (say a shopkeeper renting a large shop space costing $10 000 a month). Whereas some are low, (for example blogs like ours that come free, courtesy of great and kind people or websites that buy hosting for $20 a year)

More often than not, it is the higher capital entry level opportunities that make more money ( say a house bought for 1 million and is rented out at $8000 a month).

Hence, it is the higher capital-intensive entry levels stuffs you hear of like real estate, blue chips stocks, forex managed accounts that you want to get into if you want to be really rich. However, and i emphasise, this does not mean low capital entry levels stuff cant make you comfortably rich (just look at bloggers who earn six figures a year like whateverlife.com).

And at the end of the day, you must ask yourself why you are purusing passive income and not be blinded by greed (which may result in bad investment decisions). For example, wanting to be rich to have a happy comfortable life but slogging out and making unhappy decisions in the pursuit of passive income may not be worth it on some people's barometer.

Now on to some ideas and opportunities for passive income with a low capital entry level (which is more realistic to our needs and helps us get the capital required to enter the 'better' high capital entry level stuffs)!!

Wait...People Will Write Quality Google Adsense Content For Me?

"Where To Find Google Adsense Content And Pages"

If you’re not in the mood for writing, or just want a quicker way of expanding your Adsense pages, here’s how you get that content. The higher quality the content, the more likely surfers will remain on the site and click more Google Adsense ads including the Adsense ads on top paying keywords, but I’m also sure you know what that means. Usually the higher the quality, the more it costs, or the more work it takes to get it. This is good to keep in mind if you decide to surf Google for free content; websites that are throwing themselves out there with free articles and content for you to use must have some reason to do so, and don’t be surprised if all that fancy advertising is needed because their junky content isn’t attracting website owners too quickly. By far the best way to get good and original content is to write it yourself, or if you are a terrible writer, pay someone to write for you. However, this doesn’t always fit with your finances or busy schedule – if that’s you, keep reading.

The best free Google Adsense ready pages, websites, templates, etc I've seen can be found very easily. Here exactly what you need to do, and within minutes you'll have yourself a top notch Google Adsense website filled with Adsense ads and content.

"Pre-Built Content Filled Google Adsense Websites"

eBay is a good start to buy content for Google Adsense websites, and in fact, on eBay you can even find packages with content all bundled up, placed in templates just waiting for your Google Adsense code. You can Google search all of these as well with very similar results. Try these searches as a start:free Google Adsense templatesfree Pre made Adsense pagesfree Adsense websitesfree Adsense readyfree Adsense ready sitesfree Adsense templatesfree Adsense turnkey

"Some Additional Adsense Content To Expand"

If you feel like you have a good website template set up all you need is articles to fill up your Adsense pages, there are many free article websites that can help you. Just pick out which articles fit your website theme, take the ones that use the highest paying Google Adsense keywords, place them into your pages, and wait for the clicks and money to roll in. Here are a few article websites:Ezinearticles.com
Valuablecontent.com
Articlecity.com
If those aren’t enough or you can’t find articles on the Google Adsense keywords you need, try these in a Google search:Free articlesReprint articlesSubmit article (many free article websites advertise that they collect articles as well)Adsense content

"Lastly Fill You Adsense Website With Public Domain Works"

Lastly you can look through content that has either lost it’s copyright or is too old to have gotten a copyright. Many good topics and documents can be found from this in the Public Domain works. New content loses its copyright everyday, so if you don’t find anything now simply keep looking at what expires each day. The Public domain works include everything from books, articles, magazines, pictures, recordings, etc. If you find just one book about your topic, imagine how many free Google Adsense pages you could create with that! You can Google search Public domain works or simply try these websites:Gutenberg.orgThelostfiles.com (here they even give you pre-made information products, but this service is not free ) University of California Public Domain Resources

One last thing, some services just require you to put some code into your Adsense website and it will automatically fetch articles and content and place them on your page. If you are interested in this visit:

Warning: 7 Secret Ways on How to Cheat Google Adsense

Warning: 7 Secret Ways on How to Cheat Google Adsense

"Cheat Google Adsense"

So you’ve decided that cheating Google Adsense is going to be your ticket or at least you want some more information about it. First off, if you are really serious about Google Adsense, then trying to cheat will only harm you in the long run. If you manage to create a high traffic quality content Adsense website, the amount you can earn with Google Adsense will easily overshadow what you can make if you cheat now. And if you cheat now, you may never get that chance to try that high earning payroll later on since Google’s Adsense spiders are fairly intelligent, and are getting smarter by the day. If you cheat and get caught, you’ll lose your Adsense account, and who knows they may even ban your website from Google.com’s search listings – I have heard it happen before! Here’s a quick read if you want the details about cheating Adsense:Google Adsense Policies
You've thought about it, SCARED to cheat? How does Google track cheaters? How can you avoid getting caught cheating Adsense? Here's how, if you really want to know how not to get caught and banned from Google Adsense by cheating...don't cheat. If you want to try for the quick buck, go for it, but not worth it in my opinion.

"If You Cheat, You'll Lose, But Keep Reading For The 7 SECRET WAYS"

However, for the brave, or curious, here’s how it’s done. To cheat Google Adsense, you need to have discretion, if you overdue it, the limited window of making money with Google Adsense will surely be shortened. If you cheat right, you might be able to get away with a few weeks, months, if you last longer congrats I guess, if you aren’t careful about that cheating, you might not make it past week one.

The best way you might think is if you just get people to click on your ads, friends, family, etc. but even that has to be handled with care. Google tracks your click through ratio, the number of clicks per impressions. If they notice this number starts changing drastically, especially for the better, they might pay a little more particular attention. From what we know Google’s Adsense spider looks for cheating at least 2 ways, if that click through ratio changes fast, or if your click through ratio is just too dam good. Typically a click through ratio will be under 10%, a person doing poorly will be below the 2.00% mark, someone doing decently well will be between 5.00% and 8-9.00%, and so if Google Adsense starts picking up websites that consistently perform above that 10% they will get in for a closer inspection. Hey I mean your website could just be doing an excellent job, so perhaps Google engineers will take a peak at what’s working on the site, but if they see a poorly designed and poor content Adsense website….then suspicion rises. So to keep that watchful eye out of your way, don’t get too greedy and keep click through ratios reasonable.

"Level Up: Google Adsense Click Exchange Teams"

Now you want to take it a step up. To cheat Google Adsense you can’t just keep clicking from those same 4 computers, even if they are all relatives or friends living out and about, Google’s Adsense spider will also pick up if the same few computers are making all the clicks. To solve this problem, many have created Google Adsense ad clicking teams. These Adsense clicking teams or group cheat Google by having many people just click each others Adsense ads over a period of time. They have taken time to work out a few of the little problems that get you caught but still aren’t perfect. However if you aren’t greedy you can make out using these Adsense clicking teams.

Since I haven’t really tried any of these programs on my on, I can’t really recommend any that work well. To cheat Google Adsense is a big decision, and I myself do not wish to get banned by Google’s Adsense program, it is not worth it to me. If you want to try…test your luck.

43 Top Paying Google Adsense Keywords No One Uses- $65.00 Per Click

43 Top Paying Google Adsense Keywords No One Uses- $65.00 Per Click

"So What Are The Highest Paying Adsense Keywords?"

Finally we arrive at the highlight of all Google Adsense searches, questions, tips, and tricks, what everyone wants to know as soon as they sign up for Adsense. Well maybe the first question is ‘how much money do I make?’ and this may be the second, ‘what keywords help me bring in the cash?’ Everyone is looking for the fastest way to make a buck, so if you’re going to take the time to devote all this energy and effort into Google Adsense, why not just work with the keywords that make the most money? I agree with this to a degree, but I also don’t in a way.

Using these top paying Google Adsense keywords can easily increase your rate of earnings. $4.00 versus $0.15 is a big difference for example. Having all these high paying keywords for Google Adsense will help, but you can’t rely solely on those keywords. Let’s take a step back for a second and think about what it means to be a top paying keyword. Why do you think these keywords pay so much? Two reasons, the first is that many competitors are fighting for the keyword, and second, the most likely reason why all these companies are fighting for that keyword is because it is very profitable.

We start with multiple companies trying to get the most visibility for their Google Adwords ads. In fact, when ever that certain keyword is searched for or appears on a website, each of those companies wants their Adwords ad to be the first one displayed, and they want that ad to be clicked on the most. With dozens of companies each bidding on these keywords, the price goes up, up and up until they end up paying enormous amounts per click, $10, $20, and even $50 for a click. But if they are willing to pay that much, there must be a good reason, a profitable reason at that.

"Mistake: Create Website For Only Top Paying Google Adsense Keywords"You might be thinking well if all these companies are willing to pay that high price per click, why don’t I make a website, and display Google Adsense ads. That way, Google takes that $50, takes a share, and gives me the rest, and all I have to do is write some content about that keyword. However, the plot thickens here, it is a little more complex, mainly for the reason that many others have that same idea. Most likely if a keyword goes that high, not only is it profitable, but it must also be quite popular and searched for often.

So this is where it gets harder for you, since many people will want to build websites around profitable keywords, and also keywords that draw in great deal of searches a month, you will be faced with a tough market to penetrate. Other people will think that using these keywords they will get a lot of search engine traffic and a lot of revenue from Google Adsense so they will build, optimized, and maintain a website around this at all costs. They will spend a great deal of time and money to make sure they are at the top of the search engine listings for these keywords.

Unless you are prepared to spend more time and money than these folks, your Adsense ads for those high paying keywords will not be seen quite as much. The way around this? Promote other keywords that aren’t as fiercely competed for. You’ll have to make a collection of say 10 low traffic keywords to generate the same amount of search engine traffic to your site as a high traffic keyword would, but here you will have much less competition for those top search engine positions. So once you start getting people to pour into your site based on those low traffic low paying keywords you present them with quality content. This content will hopefully attract them and draw their attention long enough so that they consider visiting other pages on your website. With luck, these other pages will be optimized and based on those high paying Google Adsense keywords. So traffic comes in, reads, surfs rest of website, and hopefully makes their exit via top paying Adsense ad.

"File Names"

Oddly enough, if you change around what you name your files, and what directories they are in, the subject of the Google Adsense ads can easily shift around. This is likely another easy to implement and good Google Adsense secret not to look over. Make a sub directory or two under your main .com domain and title each of those your keywords and have all your files in there. And for the .html files make sure they each are titled with the keyword that the page is optimized for. So here’s an example,
www.main_keyword.com/main_keyword_2/main_keyword_3/keyword_page_optimized_for.html
Google Adsense secrets released - Google Employee Only info accidentally leaks - force Google to send you highest paying ads. Trust me Google Adsense will pick up on those and help make sure the Adsense ads you get are relevant.

"Title and Heading"

Same as above, make sure the title of each page includes your main keyword as well as the keyword the current page is optimized for. Not only does this title come up in search engines and is what people click on to visit your site, Google Adsense uses it to add even more keyword relevancy for their Adsense ads. Also make sure you use headings in the content. This will help you define sections in your content so it will make it easier to read, but once again Google Adsense also picks up on what you use in the headings. What is between those heading tags will be emphasized more so by the Google Adsense spider than what is in the content, so make sure to drop in a few of these:

keyword inclusive title


"Meta Tags"

These aren’t what they used to be back in the Web 1.0 days. Now, Google Adsense, Google.com search, and most search engines don’t rely on them as much. I would include them as a small precaution just incase some search engine does use them, but don’t plan on them being overly helpful. People in the past have just placed massive amounts of keywords into the meta keyword and meta description tags to a point where search engines decided not to go by what the keyword spammers were putting in the tags. Google Adsense also primarily disregards what is inside the tags.

"Placement of Keywords"

Little is known how keyword placement affects Google Adsense ads, however, some results have come up repeatedly enough that they are worthwhile to be called Google Adsense secrets. We’ve already mentioned that placing keywords in headings with tags has some influence, and that keywords in page titles also affects Adsense ads. The next Google Adsense secret for placing keywords involves exactly where the keywords are in the content in relation to the Google Adsense ad. It has been shown that if you put keywords right under the Google Adsense ad, those keywords are much more likely to influence the keywords that appear in the Adsense ad. So anywhere that you place the Adsense ad box, ensure that what is below it is highly relevant to the page content and contains keywords that you would like the Google Adsense ads to be about. Placing keywords right under the Adsense ad won't entirely influence what the keywords in the ad are, however, this is just another way that Google tries to keep their Adsense ads relevant. By making the Adsense ads connect with both the main theme/topic of the site, as well as what is written directly around that Adsense ad box, surfers will be displayed the most relevant ads. And this helps you because the more relevant the ad, the more interesting to the reader, the more clicks, and the more money you make with Google Adsense!

"URL Blocking"

Just in case competitors of your website are coming up on your Google Adsense ads, Google gives you the option of stopping those particular Adwords advertisements from being displayed in your Adsense ad boxes. You can go into your Adsense control panel/main page and just type in the URLs that you don’t want showing up on your website anymore. Some people have found a sneaky little way to make this option a little more profitable for them. I’d easily call this a Google Adsense secret since I don’t think I ever would have thought of it if someone hadn’t mentioned it to me. And what makes it worse is that it’s pretty obvious! Basically you just block URLs of sites advertising with low paying keywords. If for example you had to use some keywords to describe the content in your site, but you know those keywords won’t be bringing in lots of money any time soon, simply block. Save that precious Google Adsense ad space for websites and blogs that will be paying more for their keywords. It will take some time figuring out which keywords and URLs aren’t that hot, but if you can manage to figure that stuff out it helps a pretty good amount.

"More Pages"This Adsense secret is obvious, the more pages with Google Adsense ads that you have, the more likely you are to get clicks. It’s basically improving your odds. But just having those pages isn’t enough; two other things must also be done as well. To have Adsense ads you need content, that’s the first part, and the second is that you will need to send traffic to those pages. Content, well that’s self-explanatory, either write it, buy it, copy it, etc. Getting traffic from search engines requires submitting and waiting. More on getting content for your pages here:Free Adsense Websites

"Rank Higher"
If you rank higher on Google’s search engine, the amount of money you receive per click will be higher than a lower ranking Adsense website. How exactly this works we aren’t sure, but we definitely know that different Google Adsense websites will not always be paid the same amount, even if a surfer clicks on the same exact Adsense ad on both sites! As you know Google’s search ranks more relevant, higher quality, and more linked to pages higher in the search rankings, perhaps they think that people who make clicks from those websites are a much better customer base for the Google Adwords advertisers. Who knows, but just don’t forget about getting search engine rankings up, because even if your click through ratios stay the same, revenue per click can make a difference.

Cheating Google Adsense, some people have found ways to do it, find out the risks, and find out how. If you dare to try to cheat Google’s Adsense program you risk your account, but how much can you make? If you don’t feel like cheating is quite up to your level, (we aren’t too fond of it either), then how about using high paying Google Adsense keywords? Next up we’ll discuss some of the most sought after information about Google Adsense is the keywords. Everyone is looking for high paying Google Adsense keywords, top keywords, etc. because if you can create a site based around those profitable keywords you’re bound to make good money for each visitor that decides to click. $30, $45, $60 dollars per click…on just one Adsense keyword? So don’t you think building at least a few pages optimized for these high paying and top paying Adsense keywords is worth it? Finally we have the Google Adsense templates and getting free content to use for your Google Adsense ad pages. If you aren’t in the mood to type type type, find something that’s already typed and use it. Buy it, pay someone to write it, get it free, or use public domain works which are also free. All you have to do is upload! How's that for a Google Adsense secret?

"Border"

Toss it! It will only make your Google Adsense ad stand out and give more separation from it and your content. Easily make the border the same color as the background color and you will once again have Google Adsense ads blending in with your content. Some statistics claim the removal of the border sky rockets your Adsense click through ratio, I don’t doubt it.

"The Holy Grail of All Google Adsense Tips, Tricks, Secrets: The Large Rectangle WHY?"

Every single person who knows what they are talking about with Google Adsense will tell you this: "Use the large rectangle". Why? Who knows, but statistics from numerous sources including Google Adsense website owners themselves, all find the 336 x 280 Large Rectangle to be the best performing Google Adsense Text ad. This is one of the best known and helpful Google Adsense tips and tricks, so make sure to take advantage of it. People are 670 times more likely to click on….just kidding, I’m making up numbers, but it has been shown that surfers are much more likely to click on the Large Rectangle than any other of the Google Adsense ad formats. It’s hard to say exactly why, but this size just tends to get the most clicks. Perhaps because it fits in with content better? A larger Google Adsense ad box that is surrounded by your content text may give more of an impression that it is part of the content itself. Smaller, longer, and wider Google Adsense ad formats may be much easier to spot as ads and just ignore. Regardless, this Adsense ad format out-performs all the rest.

"The Medium Rectangle"

The other high performing money making Google Adsense ad format is the 300 x 250 Medium Rectangle. Not many Adsense tips and tricks are as great as the Large Rectangle, but if you don't want to use the large rectangle for some reason, this is another quality Adsense Ad type. Same concept as before, but if you want more of a scientific explanation, here’s what I found for you: “…with the smaller Adsense ad formats, with just one glance visitors can quickly find all four edges of the Adsense ad and immediately make an impression of the contents. If they deem it to be an ad, even if the links sound enticing, the visitor may disregard the links inside and not click. The larger Adsense boxes work differently, since the human eye has a limited scope for focusing, the larger Adsense advertisements typically will not fall entirely into the range of focus if just staring at one point of the advertisement. Hence, when looking at any point of the Adsense advertisement, the visitor will not readily see all four edges at once. For this reason, a visitor may easily confuse the Adsense ad as being a continuation of the content on the page. Without the easily unnoticed subconscious distinction between the content and Adsense advertisement, a visitor is likely to not quickly cast an impression of ‘oh it’s it simply advertising’ onto the Adsense ad.” Ya…what he said. Just try it, Large Rectangle, then Medium Rectangle.

"Keyword Density"

Google Adsense ads are also configured to come up depending on how much certain keywords come up in the content. The Google Adsense spider calculates the percentage of the content that is made up of those keywords and then places Adsense ads accordingly. This Google Adsense tip will require you to observe what Adsense ads are coming up when your page loads. If you watch the ads for a while and notice that they aren’t pertinent to the keywords you’re optimizing for, then simply mention the Adsense keywords more, however, just be careful to not over do it. It is best to start with less and then add more of those keywords then to start taking them out.

"Flashy Websites"

This isn't exactly an Adsense secret, but just a warning, because this can easily lower click through ratio. Limit the amount of flashy graphics present on your pages, these graphics can easily shift the surfers attention around the page so use them to your advantage rather than against you. If you have too many graphics, you will lose any controlling power you have over surfers. By tactfully placing the graphics on your page, you can force your reader to keep scrolling down the page to see what else there is to read. In addition, if you place Adsense ads near by, the image will draw the surfers’ attention to the objects close to the picture, and this includes the Google Adsense ads. Just be careful not to put the images too close to the Adsense ads since Google has a policy about that. As long as you don’t make the surfer think that the image you are displaying represents what they will find upon clicking the Google Adsense ad you will be fine. Use your own discretion, its not worth getting warned by Google.

"More Placement Advice"

Right where your content picks up and starts getting interesting drop in the Google Adsense ads. These will be the parts of the site where surfers will actually take the time to read and focus on instead of just skimming. And with this focus they will be more likely to look over the Google Adsense ads with more detail than when skimming.

These kinds of Google Adsense tips and tricks supposedly will raise your Adsense Ad click through ratio, but its one of those tips that are hard to test. But I take advice from all over the place, from pro SEO top earners, ebooks, copying successful Adsense website, etc. and put it all together to come out with only the best consensus. Besides, it won't hurt to use a Adsense tip like this...will it?

"Clean, Cut, Crisp"

Make sure the page looks nice and organized, surfers will enjoy a cleaner page and will most likely stay longer, and the longer they stay, the more Google Adsense ads they read, and the more Google Adsense ads they click to make you money. Secret or no secret, this Google Adsense tip is very easy to apply to don’t be careless. Tables will make things even easier for you. Make a few tables, with a few cells and keep content in one, Google Adsense ads in one, more content in another, another Adsense ad, etc. The tables will give the content and the Adsense ad a nice clean blend between the two.

"Above the Fold"If you notice in that Google heat maps image, most of the darker spots (indicating increased viewing compared to the lighter areas), are on the top half of the page. This top half of the page is called the ‘fold’. When a surfer enters a website, they tend to read what they currently see on the page before they scroll down, and so it has been said that they read ‘above the fold’. If the surfer doesn’t find the content above the fold isn’t appealing they may leave giving credit to the saying that first impressions count. They can either leave, or quickly click on another part of the part to take them somewhere else. So why not give your Google Adsense ads the most exposure you can? If you know that above the fold is the part of your website that will be seen first and the most, then by putting the Google Adsense ads right up there you will instantly increase your Adsense clicks by users. Great Adsense tip, because if someone visits your page, and intends to leave quickly, they won't even bother scrolling down, so if they want to leave your page fast, give them a Google Adsense ad to click on to get out.

"Matching"Now, the most crucial instructions, the so called Google Adsense tips and secrets that cause your click through ratio to go through the roof, any guesses at what it could be??. You’ll be kind of disappointed at how obvious but nevertheless overlooked these little Google Adsense secrets are. However, I wouldn’t be too disappointed, because with these few small tweaks and changes to those Adsense ads you’ll be sure to make money. Remember those flashy annoying banner ads? Now do you remember how you knew that they were advertisements the moment you landed on a web site? They didn’t fit! The advertisers were so busy trying to make you notice the ads, that after time we’ve become desensitized to the whole ‘stand out’ and ‘pop out’ effect. Now instead of those ads catching our attention, we immediately know to avoid them because they are just trying to sell us something. Google Adsense ads made a huge step in the right direction by creating small, informational, and unobtrusive Adsense Text ads. The more your Google Adsense ads blend with the page and the content, the more likely that a surfer will take a look at them and click.

"Matching Background"So the first is to match backgrounds – the Google Adsense ad’s background color should match the background color of your website. This will ensure that the ad isn’t drawing unnecessary attention that can immediately get it labeled as advertising. If I had to pick a handful of Google Adsense secrets, I would definitely use this one, it is crucial to make money with Google Adsense! Now matching your Google Adsense ad background to the site background is only one option. This option is best used when you are placing the Google Adsense ads right into the content, like for example if it is between paragraphs or right along side some of the text. This way, when a reader is reading through the content, it will appear as if the Adsense ads are part of what you intended them to read, and if they find the content to be quality and trustworthy, that appeal may be transferred over to the Google Adsense ads leading to one or even multiple clicks. Here is a quick example of matching the Google Adsense ad background to content background:

The second option for background matching would be to match the Google Adsense ad background to the background of your menus and navigational sections of the website. Using this technique, the surfer will believe that all the sections of that color background will lead them to different sections of the website. Here is a quick picture example of this in action:

More information at Google’s website:What color palettes are the most successful?


So in a way, you are tricking the surfer into clicking on a Google Adsense ad, however, the surfer isn’t losing out on the deal since they picked the topic of that Adsense ad over something else you had in your navigational menu, so they are still getting what they want. The quality of the site that the Google Adsense ad takes them to may not be a good as yours, but hey they can always come back if they enjoyed reading your site – I’m sure you wouldn’t mind the few extra clicks they make on their way out.

"Matching Text"

Same concept as with matching backgrounds, if the text size and font of the Google Adsense ads match with the text size and font of the content on your page, or of the navigation menus, the Adsense ads will not stick out as much. General rule of thumb, where ever you place the Google Adsense ads, and you are trying to make them blend in, match as much as possible. Another key ‘Google Adsense secret’ keep this one in mind, because text matching combined with background matching are an enormous help!

"Matching URLs"

People don’t tend to click on URLs of websites, but rather they prefer to click on the link text that describes the content on the other side of the link. In this case, you don’t want the http://www..... at the bottom of the Google Adsense Text ads to be bright and stand out drawing the surfer’s attention. So make sure that the Adsense URL at the bottom is the same color and font as the rest of the text of the Google Adsense ad which should also be the same as your content’s text color and font.

Everyone thinks that click through improving information are secrets, and that Google is hiding all this from you, but that’s not the case. When you profit, Google also profits.

"Selective Placing"The best pages to put Google’s Adsense code onto, is pages where you’re not selling other products. If you want people to click other ads, go to other pages, or to buy something else, having Google Adsense ads on that page will distract them and possibly get them to click away from what you really want them to click on. If you have a product, such as an ebook that you’re selling for $30 or $40 dollars and you want people to consider purchasing it, having Adsense ads to distract the surfers can be a bad thing. Instead of clicking purchase, they may click on the Google Adsense ad which earns you a much smaller amount. So remember to choose carefully which pages get the ads and which ones don’t. And remember, the best pages for Google Adsense ads are the pages that contain a lot of content to which the spider can link up relevant advertisements to. Some people may refer to this as a Google Adsense secrets, and it is definitely gone over in Joel Comm’s Google Adsense Secrets ebook, but this is just plain obvious I think.

"Content Emphasis"While we’re on the topic of content, here’s a little Adsense secret that can help you can use to make sure Google Adsense advertises relevant products and services. Use the following code:
CONTENT CONTENT CONTENT
Place those two HTML tags around the content that you would like the Google spider bot to serve up ads with. Now remember, Google’s Adsense spider is very smart and uses a lot of information to serve up the advertiser’s Google Adwords ads that appear as Google Adsense ads on your site. Don’t think that just by using those two tags you will be able to force the ads to be about a certain topic. Google states that using those tags will allow you to emphasize and suggest which sections of a page are most important and relevant. More information about these tags can be found here:What is section targeting and how do I implement it?
"Content Pages For All Keywords"
Don’t be afraid of creating content pages for keywords that aren’t that searched for. I’m sure you’ve checked not only which keywords bring in a lot of money per click, but also how many surfers search for a certain term per month. If not here’s a quick link to Yahoo’s Overture service that does that:Keyword Selector ToolContinuing on about those less than excellent keywords, its hard to win traffic from the search engines with keywords that are highly searched for. Why? Because everyone is optimizing their sites for those words, so the chances of you getting many visitors using those keywords is very slim. Low end keywords on the other hand, since there isn’t many people optimizing their pages for these words it is way easier to be ranked for those terms which means more traffic. If you optimize pages for low end keywords, draw in 30-40 visits per each of those pages, it will add up. This is a crucial Google Adsense secret, just create many quality pages and watch the hits roll in. Then with luck some of those visitors will surf your site and come across some of the higher end keyword pages and click those Adsense ads. So low end keywords draw in the traffic, and hopefully high end keywords get the Google Adsense ad clicks. This another Adsense tip or trick that is labeled as a Google Adsense secret but it really applies to any kind of selling or making money online. You want to pull in as much traffic as you can, and the best way to do so is by actually getting traffic, so get the traffic you can easily take and then compete for those hard keywords.
Golden Google Adsense Secret: Its way way easier to make 500 pages that earn 1 hit a day, than to create 1 page that earns 500 hits per day. Then just count the Adsense clicks from those 500 hits!
"Google Adsense Search Bar and Link Unit"Don’t only focus on creating Google Adsense Text Ads, despite those being important Google Adsense also provides you with the Search Bar and the Link Unit. If at the very least, since you are only allowed to have 3 Text Ads, the Google Adsense Search Bar and the Link Unit give you two additional money making avenues. You may doubt their ability to help you bring in the clicks, but does it hurt to just include them?
People love to have choices, the more the merrier, and if you give them more options, they’re bound to find something from those choices to click on. That’s sound logic right? The Google Adsense Link Unit does just that, it gives your surfers more choices to pick from. So once they lose interest in your content, they finish reading it, or just realize it’s not what they are looking for they can look at your Adsense ads for something else to click on. The Text Ads are usually fairly specific and targeted, so if the surfer isn’t into one of the ads, most likely the rest will fall out as well. The Google Adsense Link Units on the other hand are still targeted, however they are more likely to cover a broader and more general range giving the surfer access to more options. You may be thinking that the Adsense Link Units aren’t that great since customers will have to click not once, but twice for you to make that money, but that is a fairly pessimistic view. If the reader is motivated enough to click on one of the links from that Adsense Link Unit, then chances are that the Google Adsense ads that come up on the next page will be something of interest to them leading to that second click. And who knows, there is a chance that the new page has better paying ads than the ones hosted on your Adsense web site.
As a last resort, your visitors can use the Google Adsense Search Bar to quench their thirst for knowledge. If the Adsense Text ads don’t cut it, and the Link Units are way off topic or not what the surfer was looking for, then at least you have a shot of getting some clicks with the Adsense Search Bar. And think about it, if people type exactly what they are looking for into the Adsense Search Bar then won’t that next page give them Google Adsense ads that are many many times more targeted than what your Adsense web site can provide them with? They may have come to your web site from a search engine because part of the keywords they were looking for came up on your site, and once they arrive they find your site relatable, but not exactly what they wanted. So if the Adsense Link Unit doesn’t help them then the Adsense Search Bar will. And from my experience, Google tends to place the better Adsense ads on their own pages, so most likely the money you’ll get from the Adsense clicks that come from that search results page will highly profitable.

The SINGLE Most Profitable Google Adsense Ad Type

"Logging Into Adsense For The First Time"

So lets finally start picking out Google Adsense ad types and formats so you can implement them on your website and start making money. Google has created many different types of Adsense ad shapes to allow you fit those perfect little ads anywhere on your site where you please. And don’t worry about making Google Adsense code, they have a nifty little tool that easily writes up the code for you. You simply select which options interest you, and click create, and then copy and paste into your site.

Google Adsense ad types are not all the same, picking the BEST and most PROFITABLE Google Adsense ad format makes people click instead of ignoring your Adsense ads. Alright, to begin picking the Google Adsense code first you have to log in:Log In

From the main page click on “Adsense Setup” which will take you to the selection page. If you can’t find the button we’re referring to have a look at this brief picture guide Google created:Google Adsense Quick Start

Now that you’re about to start creating your ads, you need to pick out which Google Adsense ad format you wish to use. The following page shows you a sample picture of each ad format so you can decide which size and shape will best fit your Google Adsense website.Google Adsense Ad Formats

The most common Google Adsense ads that you see are “Adsense for content”, but you also have the option of using “Adsense for search” which just gives the surfer a Google search bar incase nothing on your site fits what they were looking for.

"Picking The BEST And Most PROFITABLE Adsense Ad Format"

So after you’ve logged in and clicked “Adsense Setup” at the top of the page, and you’ve clicked “Adsense for content” you’re ready to begin making your Google Adsense code. From the first drop down menu at the top select the type of ad format you want, the most common (plus most effective, reliable, and highest profiting) is “Text ads only” so that is what I advise you choose. In the next section you decide the size and shape of the ad that works best. Click the link above if you want to look at the Google Adsense ad formats again.
The most popular Google Adsense ad formats are the Wide Skyscraper (160x600) and the Large Rectangle (336 x 280). The wide skyscraper is commonly found on the right hand side of the page and the medium rectangle is commonly placed inside your text, often at the top left of the paragraph. DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE the power of the Large Rectangle Adsense Ad Format. The Large Rectangle outperforms all the other Adsense Ad Types by far!
Now pick colors that you think will fit your Adsense web site color scheme. I like to leave them plain black with maybe a blue color for the link and either a white background or one that matches the background of your site. We’ll go over color schemes again a little later in tips and secrets section.

The Google Adsense program allows you to track your ads individually by placing them into what they call “channels”. You place a certain ad into a channel, or a group of ads into a channel, and later when you look at your stats, you will see which channel had the most impressions, clicks, best click through rate, etc. This is how you can find out which ads work and which don’t. Track by pages on your site, ad size and shape, color, positioning on the pages, etc. you decide.

"Placing Adsense Code Into Your Cash Earning Website"

Once you’ve decided all the options scroll down, click continue, and copy your code. Hopefully you’ve decided where you want to place the code on your website, so now just open up the HTML editor, locate the part of the page where you want the Google Adsense ad to go, and paste it right in.
For their Adsense program, Google puts limits for how many ads you can have per page. Google allows you to have up to 3 Text Ads, 1 Link Unit, and 1 Search for Content search bar per page. So you may use as many as you think are necessary, but don’t go too overboard, and definitely don’t go past Google’s limits of 3, 1, and 1 respectively.

Once you’ve placed the ads into the pages, upload them to your server, and view the pages a few times. This will trigger the Google Adsense spider and Google will send it right over to check out the new page. Once it sees the code for the Adsense ads it will make note of it and immediately start sending the Adsense ads to your page. Remember don’t click, and just wait they will eventually come up. Also remember that you can’t pick which ads come up from the Google Adsense page, the only way you can change which ads come up is by altering your content.

As a side note, don’t under estimate the power of the Search for Content option that Google Adsense gives you. If your surfers aren’t pleased with your Text Ads, and the categories that show up on your Link Units aren’t exactly what the surfer was in search of, they can simply type their search query into the Adsense Search for Content search bar and that will load up a new page for them with results. What is excellent here is that if a surfer clicks on any of the ads on that surf page, guess who gets credit for them…you.

Lastly, if you want to preview how your ads look you can install the Google Adsense Preview Tool located here:Google Adsense Preview Tool
