Archive for the ‘Review’ Category

On March 18, 2008, I received an email that reads “An Advertiser has Purchased a Review - Response Required” as the subject. Guess what? An advertiser actually interested in me, giving their product a review. It’s not on this blog though. It’s for my other blog. My health related blog. They actually agreed on $75 for the review!

I accept immediately. Do some research about the subject, and start doing my article. It’s about herbal tea I receive my payment on March 27, 2008.

This is made possible by SponsoredReviews. If you have a good blog with good content, consider joining this service. You can make some extra money from it. And if you are an advertiser wanting to promote your website or products, you can also join this service.

You read that right.

I’ve told Google to push off.

Stop spidering me.

I no longer want my online business to depend on its ever changing whims as to what makes a good or bad ranking.

I don’t want to spend time collecting thousands of backward links then find that they are probably worthless because the anchor text does not contain a suitable keyword, or the site does not have sufficient page rank, or whatever the latest algorithm is.

I don’t want to buy expensive cloaking tools and run the risk of penalization.

I don’t want to be bothered about whether a domain has a static or dynamic IP address or have to use different hosts to make a network of minisites.

What’s that you say ? You don’t need fancy tricks - just provide good relevant content.

My answer ?

Nonsense.

I have a huge content site devoted solely to ClickBank, the only one of its kind.

If you wanted to find the most relevant content for a search on the keyword ‘ClickBank’ don’t you think that would be at the top ?

Well Google used to agree with you.

It was ranked number 2, with only ClickBank.com itself at number one.

Today it is ranked … wait for it … number 426.

It is beaten out of sight by sites which have nothing to do with ClickBank but happen to mention that keyword once.

I asked a search engine expert about this and he suggested that it was due to keyword density, in other words too many mentions of the word ClickBank.

Well that has to be the case - the site is after all a ‘Complete Guide to ClickBank’

His advice - try replacing the word ClickBank occasionally e.g. use ‘CB’.

No way.

That was the last straw and became the inspiration for me to develop a revolutionary approach to getting traffic.

It led to me being called ‘The Guru who said goodbye to Google’ in the marketing forums.

And this new approach ?

It uses some of the fundamental pillars of Internet marketing that you already know - techniques which will never become obsolete.

But they are combined together in a new way and with a viral twist that you won’t have seen before.

It includes giving out free information in a certain way and I show you how exactly in my book, The Ultimate SuperTip.

Advertising is a way to get consumers interested in the products that are for sale and there are many different approach and types of ads created each year. It doesn’t matter what type of ad is created because they will reach consumers in several different ways. In fact we see ads by the thousands every day from online, television commercials, to the radio. Consumers will be exposed to every type of ad that is created whether they wish to be or not. Even the pop-up ads inundates us just by going on to a favorite website.

It is no real secret that consumers are tired of these ads whether it is pop-ups, radio commercials, television commercials, or ads before a news video on the website. Ads are meant to be annoying in order to get the information stuck in the consumers mind. You may not be aware of the latest ad type yet, but I bet you have seen it. The newest ad to hit the online market is the peeled page ads on the top right corner of a website. There are several names for them: Peel Away Ads, Page Peel Ads, Page Peel Away Ads, Peel Ads, Page Peel Script, Apeeling Ads, Peel It Ads and many more. Multinational corporations create them to attract online customers because of their pleasing way of non-annoying in nature.

These ads use a whole different psychological approach. Instead of forcing the offer in front of the viewer, these nifty little ads play on the viewer’s curiosity. They are meant to gather the visitor’s interest. The visitors will see a non-distracting little waving graphics on the top right edge of the site. This creates such curiosity, hence generates a high click through rates.

This is actually quite enticing. For most consumers it piques their interest enough to have them check the ads out. When they move their mouse over to the waving corner, the page peels back like the page of a book revealing the offer underneath it. When they click on the offer, they will be taken to another page where ever the site owner configure it to.

The best part about these ads for the businesses is that they are available at a very affordable price. Setting up the script of these ads is very simple: just a few changes in a few lines, design the advert images of the offer you want your visitor to buy, and that’s it. These peeled ads do not necessarily limited to selling products. Webmasters can use them to highlight special events, boost their subscriptions, feature picture of the day and even rent out the space! The only limit is their imagination. This means that any webmaster or any businesses can utilize these peeled ads for their advertising campaigns.

You may find that there are several similar peeled ads products with the same functions available online. Peel Away Ads, Page Peel Ads, Page Peel Away Ads, Peel Ad Pro, Peel It, and Apeeling Ads are just a few of them. Page Peel Ads and Page Peel Away Ads beat them all in terms of the price of fewer than 10 dollars, making them the most affordable way to advertise for any business.

AdBux is a new innovative, international and FREE English based service that allows advertisers to reach thousands of potential customers by displaying their ad on their, “Surf Ads” page. Nearly 100 percent of all advertising revenue is paid to their members. AdBux makes money via other advertising sources throughout the website as well as earning through direct sponsorship of other AdBux members, just like a regular member does.

How You Make Money

As the name implies, you make money by simply visiting websites for at least 30 seconds/visit. AdBux will pay you $0.01 for each website you visit and $0.01 for each website your referrals visit. The best part is you can have an unlimited amount of referrals! To keep AdBux from getting top-heavy you will only earn money from those that you directly refer. This gives everyone who participates in the program a fair advantage to earn the most amount of money because you have the potential to earn more than your sponsor! Payments are issued via PayPal on a daily basis but you must request for a payment to be processed. Once requested, your payment will be issued within 24-48 hours (usually sooner). You must earn at least $5 to receive payment.

It Gets Better

A valuable benefit to both the members and the advertisers is the repeat exposure that the advertiser gets. Whenever you click and view a website, you can visit that website again in 24 hours as long as the visit cap hasn’t been reached. That’s right! After 24 hours you can click and view the website again. This gives the advertiser optimal exposure by using “repeat advertising” and it further increases the members earning potential.

Earnings Example (based on current averages)
You click 10 ads per day = $0.10!
10 referrals click 10 ads per day = $1.00!
Your weekly earnings = $7.70!
Your monthly earnings = $30.80!

What I don’t like

• Advertiser base is small (Well, AdBux is new. Perhaps we should give it some time.)
• We can’t see the details of our downline.
• Limited payment methods

There’s however no harm in participating. In fact we can actually earn extra money out of AdBux. If you’d like to join, please consider joining HERE.

Nowadays there are so many ways to get traffic that will somehow boost our rankings. One of the ideas is by getting others to review our blogs or website, and the reviewers will get something back like for example some amount of money or a linkback to their website and so on.

Recently I came across Blogging Secret. The author of the site is a full time blogger from Malaysia. He was applying the very brilliant idea from JohnChow - review his blog and get a free linkbank.

Blogging Secret have some tips on how to make money online. As I’m a newbie in this area myself, I found that it’s quite useful.

The only thing that this site is lacking is the use of graphics. I like sites with beautiful graphics, but that’s just me

If you love to surf the web and you’re looking for ways to make a little extra cash on the side then you have probably checked out pay to surf programs. Well there’s a new site on the market that shows some potential. Agloco runs a small viewbar on your screen that clocks your active surfing time. Nothing fancy and while you surf the earnings add up.

Here is a screenshot of what the Viewbar will look like on your desktop:

Agloco is still in the beta testing stage which means you can sign up and refer people but the software is not yet available for download. The marketing for Agloco has begun and has been spreading rapidly through dozens of websites, forums,and social bookmarking sites like Digg, Furl and del.icio.us

The first thing most people are concerned about when it comes to this type of surf the net and get paid is exactly how much privacy does the software and company maintain. According to the site they offer bulletproof privacy and are committed to maintaining it. How true that is remains to be seen since other than signing up and referring people nothing else is available.

It is a little odd that there is a limit to the amount of time you can surf and earn. Right now it’s set at five hours, so no matter how long you’re actually on, you can only earn five hours worth from the viewbar. The next oddity is the profit sharing set up. It doesn’t actually explain itself as profit sharing from advertisements or if users receive company shares instead. Details are vague and no further information has been provided. The positives of this new up and coming company is obviously the ability to earn cash and shares, you have your choice of donating to charities if you want, there is a referral program which as most know can actually have more earning potential than the actual surfing and the company has an exceptional chance for wide spread and continuous growth. The negatives are because the viewbar hasn’t become effective to this date there is no way of knowing if Agloco actually pays like it says it does. The limited usage of the view bar as well as the fact that Agloco has yet to announce its rates can definitely have a negative impact on signing up potential customers.

Basically there is no way of knowing whether this pay to surf program is going to turn out to be a scam or a legitimate profit making experience. The only thing to do now is wait and see if it turns out to be one or the other. There isn’t however, anything to lose in checking it out and participating till a determination is made one way or another.

Checking out Agloco certainly wouldn’t hurt and referring friends and family wouldn’t either. If Agloco turns out to be something good every one will have the opportunity to join in and participate. If you’re interested in testing out Agloco, do consider signing up under my referral link by clicking HERE. Thanks.

Possibility of making extra money :

Hundreds and thousands of people all around the world want to make extra money online. There are hundreds of websites providing programs that promises thousands of dollars a month but fail to deliver. The opportunity to make extra money online is there. What we need is a real company with a real program providing a real product and help. One that I found and like is none other than Making You Richer.

Making You Richer is different. While other program charge you a non-refundable fee upon joining, Making You Richer provides 6 month 100% money back guarantee. If you don’t make any sale within 180 days, you will get a full refund. But I doubt it, I made my first sale after 3 weeks of joining More on that later.

A lot of other programs provide their very poor quality e-book and tell you how to resell the exact same service! Unlike Making You Richer which provides a very high quality and professional looking e-book, with the best tools and the best niche products to make sales and earn high commissions. Making You Richer do not tell you to resell what you’ve just purchased! Furthermore, those cheap looking e-books the other programs are offering contains information we can find for free. Nothing unique. Nothing special. Just look at their websites, there’s nothing to compare to. If you’re going to invest your money in future, please think again, do not fall into their trap. I’ve been there. Don’t waste your time.

While I’m sure those cheap programs are run by some guy in his room somewhere, Making You Richer is run by a large European company. This company is big product development company. They develop those high demand products and needs us affiliates to sell them. They have offices in the UK, USA, Latvia and Bulgaria. They know what the market are demanding.

To sum up, here’s what i really like about Making You Richer

• The fact that they provide a 100% money back guarantee. That’s how confident Making You Richer is about their program.
• The fact that they are run by a stable global product development company.
• The fact that they teach affiliates to make money not limited to just one market, but it apply to just any market opportunity.
• The fact that the products offerings are of the highest demands in the market.
• The fact that we get a one year web hosting, unlimited support, content articles written by pros and gurus, elegant and professional looking templates and continued updates.
• The fact that they guide us and provide a step-by-step plan to successfully launch our first website. All we have to do is follow their instructions and insights, in no time we’ll be making our first sale!

Oh by the way, I made my 50th post on the forum on the third day and i got my promised $10

One of the most important part in Making You Richer program is the e-book that comes with it. In my opinion, this e-book is one of the must-haves for anybody who wants to be a successful affiliate marketer.
