How to Make Money Online with Moola.com

Guest Post by Chris Ruminski

Moola.com challenges you to make 10 million dollars with a penny. How do you do this? Double the penny thirty times. Moola.com is a gaming website that will pay you to play games. Yes, you can actually make money online by playing games. No, you probably won’t make 10 million dollars. Naturally, most people are hesitant when faced with this sort of claim. And why wouldn’t they? It seems ridiculous to think that you could make money online playing games. To understand why Moola.com can pay you to play, you need to understand how they make money.

How Does Moola.com Make Money?
Moola.com makes loads of cash with their advertising and affiliate programs. Between games, you may have to watch a quick advertisement. They also make money from the sponsored ads in their search engine. To top it off, Moola.com offers you Moola bucks to participate in their booster program. This is where you complete an offer and you get paid, but Moola.com gets paid more. Now that you know how Moola.com makes money, how can you?

Play Games
Obviously you can make money by playing games on Moola.com. It’s the topic of this post. Moola.com gives you your first penny. After you receive your penny, you will be allowed to play three head to head games, as well as a slot machine for random wins. After you have earned another penny, more games will open up to you. You will wager your money against other players for the chance to double it. This is not considered gambling because Moola.com bucks aren’t worth anything until you move them into your save account. And after you do that you can’t touch them until you cash out.

Moola.com Search Engine
The Moola.com search engine offers another way to make money online. The search engine randomly awards you money whenever you perform a search. It sounds like you can manipulate their search engine so that you can search all day and make money, but you can’t. The search engine usage is monitored, and unnatural searching can get you in trouble. The best approach is to use their search engine whenever you are looking for something online.

Booster Program
The Moola.com booster program is similar to other programs on the internet that pay you to try out products or services. You can earn money for completing a survey, or a lot of money for signing up for a service such as Netflix. Sometimes you can cancel your service before you have to pay, but not always. It is important to be aware of what you are signing up for to ensure you don’t have to pay. This program is how Moola.com makes most of their money.

Referrals
If you can convince your friends to join Moola.com, you could earn a percentage of whatever they earn. Moola.com offers a four tiered program. The first tier will pay you 4% of whatever your referrals put into their save account, second tier will earn you 3%. And you can guess the rest. Get enough people to join, and you could make a lot of money this way.

Moola.com is a great place to play games and earn a couple extra pennies, but you won’t get rich. It is a good way to take a break from the work day and make some pennies.

More Ads are Adding into the Google AdSense Content Network

I received an email from Google AdSense team yesterday announcing that Google is going to allow Google-certified ad networks to compete with AdWords advertisers to show their ads on the AdSense Content network. I'm sure every AdSense publisher have got this email.

This seems to be a good news to the webmasters and bloggers who use AdSense to make money on their site. The AdSense publishers used to display ads of advertisers from Google AdWords network only, allowing other advertising networks to compete with Google AdWords advertisers for ad exposure could lead to more high paid ads to be shown on the AdSense publishers' site. So the AdSense publishers can earn higher pay per ad click which means higher AdSense earning.

But, anyway this is just a little theory I came up on my mind, not sure this will happen. I'll be monitoring my AdSense account to see if there is any positive impact. But one thing that can be confirmed is that the AdSense publishers will have more ads to shown to their website visitors.

Authority Websites - How to Build One the Google Way?

Guest Post by Darrell

Internet Marketing can be tough on you emotionally and physically. You can go weeks, months and sometimes years without making money online. You need to realize one important fact and its location, location, location. Just like real estate, they always talk about the location. In this case, you want to be in the top 5 inches of real estate on the search engine results. With all the crap out there, its time you got straight talk on how to actually build and rank an authority website?

Below, I have included several key parts to what you need to build a mega site. Those include, research and keywords, niche marketing, domain selection, back linking tips, and some computer software tools that can reduce your time and boost your productivity like an article spinner. So grab a cup of coffee, sit back and enjoy the article, as I reveal some insider secrets to building your own authority site.

There really is lots of misinformation online, and it comes down to several important key factors that search engines like Google, need to see to display the top results. They want to see high quality and the most relevant information showing up for their customers when doing an organic search. This is actually part of the problem, given the quantity of information that's added on a second by second basis to the internet.

My definition of an authority website, is when you finally rank on page 1 for your keyword on Google. From what I've noticed, authority sites for the big keyword terms, can easily have several hundred articles on a website. That is different from a niche website that can have 1, 5 or 10 articles focusing on specific niche markets. Keep in mind and depending on your long term plan, any niche web site can become an authority site.

The Importance of Research and Keywords

Too many people getting in the online marketing game are going after large keyword categories like, home based business or make money. That is one of the biggest errors you'll make when starting off. Don't try and compete against the big dogs out of the gate. Its like running a marathon. You don't decide one day to run 26 miles and can't even run 1 mile. You need to build up your endurance over time to actually running 26 miles.

Likewise, the competition for big keywords is extremely fierce and you better have your "A Game" on if trying to compete with them. Of course ranking on page 1 is definitely the best place to be, but start off in low competitive terms. You will thank me later.

Niche Marketing Strategies

The foundation in my opinion for ranking any authority site is being on page 1 for many long tail keywords. The real method to accomplish this objective, is by focusing on your niche marketing efforts. By starting off on the lower end of long tail keywords and working your way up to bigger keyword ladder, your website will gain strength. I'd say, look at 1000 to 5000 searches per month along with low competition. You'll have a significantly better chance of ranking on page 1 and making a little coin in a shorter period of time. Remember, you need to check page 1 and see what your actual competition is like. I'm always looking out for keywords that have articles on page 1 for results. If its only web sites on the first page, I might be in for a lot of competition.

I can't stress enough, how important this phase is to your overall success. Keyword research is one of the 2 most important elements to making money or not online. You really need to invest the time at this stage and look at all of the factors before just picking one that sounds good. Pick the wrong keywords or go after the big ones with lots of competition, you will likely end up belonging to the 95% club. Those are the ones that don't make money. If you want to be in the 5% club and make some money, look at the people that are successful and give you straight talk on how to actually do it.

Choosing Domain Names and Hosting

As much as possible, I try and match the key phrase term I picked, to a domain name. You can even add a prefix like "about" or dashes between the title is all right. The reality is you don't have to, but it helps to have your keyword term in the domain name. That is just another SEO tip this week for you newbies.

One other over looked area that people miss out on is aged domains. Over the past few years, many people have talked about the value of picking up aged domains whenever possible. Google and the other search engines love aged domains and it can certainly help your rankings because the site may have built up trust with the search engines. Keep that in mind, next time you are registering a site. If you have the budget and one is available, consider buying it.

I know this doesn't directly relate to building your authority site, but where you register and host your websites are important. For registering your domains, just do a search to find domain registering companies and decide for yourself who you like best. When it comes to hosting, make sure you do your research and go with companies that have 24/7 actual phone support. If your website goes down, it could be in the middle of the night and you will want to have access talking directly with live human being. I like Hostgator personally and have used them for years. Very reliable and they have 24/7 support.

Building Back Links and Ranking Your Websites - The Key Factor

Back Links Defined

A one-way link is when one web site points back to another site. The more quality one way links you get, the higher in the search engines your website will rank. You should really have an internal link structure as well. Which means, your internal pages point from 1 web page to another page within your site.

It also doesn't mean you point all of the internal links back to your home page either. You may as an example, point 10 percent of your links back to the home page. This is just an example and you will need to experiment with this figure to see how your results go. The stronger your internal link structure is, the stronger your overall website will be.

Getting One way links - A Straight Forward Approach

In reality, the process of obtaining one way links is boring. Seriously, its true because you'll have to keep rinsing and repeating the process in terms of writing and re-writing the same content. At the end of the day, how many times are you able to discuss acne removal cream (lol). But, you may improve your back linking efforts by writing high quality content versus the trash kind in my humble opinion. Yes, it takes longer, however, more individuals are likely to read your articles and return back to your website. They may even use your article and post it on their website with a hyperlink back to you.

Also, try to follow the 80 - 20 rule. Meaning, 80 percent of your links should be pointing back to your internal web pages. I see too many people get this part wrong and wonder why their website is no where to be found in the first 50 to 100 pages. Remember, a strong overall website is what you are aiming for.

I have discovered that the top places to publish your new content are places like Ezine Articles, Go Articles and Idea Marketers. Your website is likely to get indexed within a few days. One other tip to remember, is that I only submit 5 to 10 posts to each place. In my view, its the law of diminishing returns. The search engines will only assign you so much SEO link juice from each directory. Besides, you need to include as part of your overall approach, making comments at numerous do follow boards, blogs and making some guest article posting at authority sites. I've done that and it provides you a quality back link.

Now before moving on, I need to stress the importance of getting one way back links. This is where you will be spending most of your time in getting your website ranking for your keyword terms. I would look at spending 80 to 90 percent of your time writing content and posting it all over the place. Too many people spend time making their website look pretty and that's fine, but is that bringing you any traffic? Probably not - right? Focus your time and energy on activities that produce results.

Leveraging Your Time and Productivity - Article Spinner

If you want to make money online, then you have to be on page 1. There are 2 major approaches to getting lots of content out all over the place. First, submit good original content to top quality article directories, websites and Blogs. Then, to get more link juice out of each article, you can manually re-write each article. I'm sure the blogging community will be happy to see you do that. But, how much money is that approach making you?

Second, you can utilize software tools to assist you in getting more unique content out to various article directories. Bottom line, if you want to rank on your keywords and generate income, then make use of every legitimate method out there, because your competitors are utilizing all kinds of software tools to leverage their time like a content rewriter.

Prior to even looking at anything like an article rewriter or article spinner, I used to rewrite my content over and over again. As well, I tested a theory out myself for 1 year to see what my results would be. I had set up 150 Blogger accounts and used to post the same article to dozens of the same Blogger accounts. I wanted to see firsthand what duplicate content would do for my results.

Would you like to know what happened?

Keep in mind, I tracked my results for a year and at the end, only a couple of Blogger accounts actually got indexed and showed up in my results for various keywords. The rest ended up in a place I like to call, Google's Duplicate Repository. Yup, they never got indexed. If want to bypass the filters and get full SEO link juice, you need to have unique content.

So, there you have the method of creating an authority site the Google way. Start via doing key phrase analysis, drill down into the assorted niche markets, choose your domain name, and the most essential ingredient to really ranking your website, developing high quality one way back links. Also, I touched on one area to help you leverage your time more effectively with the help of software tool like an article rewriter or what some people call article spinners. However, the bottom line to being successful and making money is actually doing the work.

How to Make Money Online by Picking Keywords

Guest Post by Shaun Connell

Every moment of every day, millions of dollars are spent over the net. Type in a keyword, click, and a ‘personal shopper’ called a search engine has scanned thousands of data bases and found just what you’re looking for. And, the only ‘legs’ needed for this virtual shopping expedition are keywords. From anywhere in the world, people are searching a global mall where their choice has been narrowed down to a few top rated web sites—and all this, because someone somewhere knew how to make money online by picking keywords.

Keywords Make Money
Anyone who knows the net understands the enormous marketing and advertising impact of keywords. Every day millions of dollars are paid to the people who create, develop and disperse keywords. Whether by advertiser cost-per-click, blogs, or creating links to a well-written hub, the people who know how to make money on line by picking keywords are making lots of money. And although content is important, in some cases, it is not automatically ‘king.’ If an on-line marketing company is tasked with helping to restore an individual’s or company’s reputation, their chief concern is to implant keywords throughout the text, ‘the story is not important. What is important is that the anchor text is worked seamlessly into the narrative 3 times.’

Location, Location, Location
To find the best keywords, know exactly what the customer is looking for; what is their Unique Selling Point? What words are triggered for example, if people are looking for ‘how to make money online by picking keywords’? If an aunt or uncle were looking for information about this topic, what words would they use? Once discovered the keywords should be placed within every piece of text. Notice some stores have the same goods located in different areas throughout the store; keywords are just like that; they must be everywhere a search engine might look. The same keywords need to be mirrored in the web content, blog and every article submitted or linked to hubs.

Window Shopping is Good Advertising
Of course, every article needs to be useful and informative otherwise people won’t be bothered to read it. But if the text doesn’t have the keywords embedded in it, it’s a waste of time as far as the virtual shopper is concerned. Keywords are the highlighted passages; which clearly mark the way to a web site. Without them, potential visitors will be left searching in the dark and they may never find what they are looking for. Keywords also help keep the text remain focused and to-the-point. If the text is vague or ambiguous people will get lost. If the text is about ‘lower left back pain remedies’ it’s no good putting in a keyword about hot-tubs (unless that is the specific remedy), so keep keywords relevant, and specific. Finally, for people who are interested in how to make money online by picking keywords they need to be word smiths. A client may want their text to be ‘not promotional, self-serving or comparative.’ In other cases they may want, ‘a story which reflects the subject in each hyperlink. Whatever the style of writing in all cases it keywords are critical.

Five Tips for Selling Items Online

Guest Post by Thomas Westling

With many services and Web sites available today for consumers to sell products or services online, it can be challenging to figure out which one will work best for you. But regardless of where you decide to sell online, there are basic sales principles you can follow that will make a difference between achieving a profitable sale and having a prospective customer skip right past your product listing. Following these rules will help call attention to your listing and put your offering in the best possible light to prospective buyers.

1. Be honest. If your item is five years old, don’t call it brand new. Describe how long you’ve had it and what wear it has gotten. Otherwise you are wasting the potential buyer’s time and creating distrusting.

2. Do your research. When selling a product or service online, spend some time researching similar items for sale and how they are being advertised. This will help you decide which information to include in your listing, what features to highlight and what price to ask for your item.

3. You’ve gotta see it to believe it. People want a chance to see an item before offering to buy it, so include a high-quality photograph showing the item. If it’s a large object like furniture or a car, use more than one photo with multiple angles in your listing. Research by the advertising industry proves that photos catch more buyers’ eyes and increase sales.

4. Pay atention to speling and grammer. See what we mean? A successful listing is written and proofread carefully. Is all your spelling and grammar correct? Many sites allow you to preview your listing before posting, which could save you from losing a potential buyer.

5. Don’t forget this is a business deal. Respond to all customers promptly and politely. Answer all emails with a greeting and closing, full sentences and your name. Be clear and complete in your descriptions of the product, price and delivery options. If you meet a buyer, be punctual and courteous, no matter how the negotiation goes. If you send your product to the buyer, be sure to package it securely to protect against damage and make sure it arrives to the buyer promptly. You are selling yourself just as much as you are selling your old things, so pay careful attention to how you deal with potential buyers.

How to Model the Success of Affiliate Marketing Gurus

If you enjoy making money online by promoting products or services, then the chances of you being in affiliate marketing are fairly high. You might have signed up as an affiliate with one or more online businesses, who then give you a specific affiliate ID. Many of the online businesses that are involved in affiliate marketing might have provided you with a simple marketing package like banner or text ads and your affiliate sales page link. The only thing you really need to do now is to use these great tools and drive traffic to your affiliate sales page.

This is the strategy almost all affiliate marketers follow, but there is a problem here. Though this is a good strategy, in order for you to make a decent amount of money, you will need to have thousands of people visiting your affiliate sales page before even one product/service is sold. That being the case, you can imagine how hard it can be to actually make a $10 commission. Even if you succeed in doing so, the amount of time and effort you would have spent in earning those $10 would be huge!

Not just this, there is another problem with earning these commissions too. If you look at the terms and conditions of your affiliate marketing program, maybe they don’t pay commissions till you have earned at least $30. That means another thousand or more visitors and then, you might just have a chance at looking at those $30.

But here is something you need to consider without getting discouraged. Internet marketing is an excellent way for you to make extra cash on the side, and it honestly does not need much of an investment.

Four Step Affiliate Marketing Process:

Instead of advertising your affiliate program directly, make use of this four step process.

1. Providing value-add: Before getting down to advertising, provide something valuable to your potential customers. The simplest ‘valuable’ thing that you can provide without much effort is free information. You can provide this free information in the form of a series of email courses, eBooks and so on.

2. Give when you get: Don’t give away your free information till you get the email addresses of your potential customers. It is vital to know the name and email address of all the prospective clients, so that you can move on to the other two steps in the affiliate marketing process.

3. Earn trust: The next step in this four step process is to earn the trust of people, due to the valuable information that you have provided.

Just as you would closely monitor information provided by someone who gives you good advice on managing money, time or effort; others will start trusting you, provided your information is trustworthy. Since you have the name and email addresses of the potential customers, you can send them occasional emails with valuable information. Remember, don’t spam their mailbox. Else, they may block you and you will lose sales.

4. The actual sale: If you have been providing the potential customers valuable information regularly, they will trust you enough to buy a product/service you recommend. The sale is easier, if you can somehow make them realize that what you are recommending is worth the amount they will be spending.

In affiliate marketing, try to sell products and services that have helped you personally. This way, it becomes easier for people to trust you and you can share your experiences with them too!
