Make More Money on the Side


It helps to make more money on the side these days if you can. With so many people out of work for an extended period of time having an alternative source of income is important. One would think with all the great advances in technology that opportunities would be popping up all over the place - and to a certain extent they are - if you know where to look.

Turning Hobbies into Income Makes a Great Lifestyle


One thing I've seen a lot of lately is people taking hobbies they enjoy and finding ways to make money in their leisure time. It sounds a little counter-intuitive but when you think about it, it makes sense. I mean if you want to find expertise on a given topic, wouldn't you go to someone who does that activity alot? Would it make sense to go to the person who "lives to do it" and really has a lot of experience doing it? Funny thing is, that is what a lot of people do. Only now folks with a bit of entrepreneurial spirit are turning their expertise into a source of income.

Internet Brings Information to Customers - but Who Creates the Information


We've all searched the web to learn "how to" do *something* at one time or another. Did you ever stop to wonder where the information on that "how to" page came from? Do ya think it might have come from someone who is an expert at it that decided to share what they know online? Do you think that you were the only person looking for that information online?

Obviously not. Did you know that search results that reach websites frequently end in sales of one kind or another? Every time a sale is made online inevitably *someone* is paid a commission. If people are continuously asking you for advice on a topic you enjoy but don't make a living at... shouldn't you be thinking about finding ways to make more money on the side? Is your job or source of income so secure that you don't need to make money on the side? I don't know of too many people in that situation - that's for sure. Here's a few ideas for hobbies that make money on the side.

Web Domination - Articles, Keywords, and One Way Backlinks - Putting Them All Together

Visit our web domination tutorials blog today

Web domination is now within reach of individual article marketers more than ever. Advancement in article submission automation have flung wide open this highly lucrative field. In previous articles I've talked about things like keyword research functions and one way anchor text back links but now I want to talk about article submission and web domination. The idea behind this article is to put the two previous concepts to use with this new task of content contribution.

Content Submitters Automate Routine Tasks
There are a couple of different ways content submitters work. Content submitters can simply send out articles to the various directories, or they can alter some or all of the text, or they can snip out parts to shorten the piece. Computers in the movies always seem to move faster than the eye, and the good submitter programs live up to the images seen on the silver screen. Advanced features like randomization and word count are extremely useful given the restrictive nature of some directories regarding unique content.

Beware Article Spinners As They Can Give Very Bad Results
Sentence or word substitution is sometimes referred to as spinning and doesn't really always deliver the expected results. The most value in using an advanced program is the integrated submission, research, and URL management solutions. URL management is an after-thought for beginners but it gets really serious once you start making money.

Increasing Your Footprint Is Critical
Key to getting visitors to you sites is backlinks from other websites - having links inserted automatically helps ease this task in the content module. Tools like automatic link insertion helps make content more sticky and ultimately helping to bring extended readers to your monetized pages. As each article in the web domination effort is submitted, a log file captures and stores the URL of the new content for use in back linking and pinging later. Arranging URLs this way helps the marketer in the web domination effort because it is one less thing to think about relating to content creation. Letting the spiders know you've put up new articles is then a matter of copying the log into the pinger tool and firing off a ping for each of the URLs in the list.

Good Web 2.0 Account Creator Saves Time for the Affiliate Marketing Professional

Internet marketing is much easier with a web 2.0 account creator to automate logins and reduce mistakes with sites and passwords. If you are anything like me, you prefer to work with a separate account for each campaign you run. I mean it really only stands to reason, right?

You don't have to be an expert at everything or any product in order to be an internet marketer - but you do need to become an expert at guiding people to the right product. The problem is that if you are guiding people on the topic of polar opposite topics (which can reasonably happen) it is impossible to maintain credibility with either side target customer when you are brokering deals on both sides. That may be an extreme example, but the message is clear - you need separate IDs for each campaign.

This is where an automated web 2.0 account creator comes in extremely handy. What should a good web 2.0 account creator package do? It should create and manage multiple email addresses, usernames, and passwords to the top blogging properties, article directories, and bookmarking sites. The ability to manage multiple programs is a must for any serious internet marketing professional.

All of this begs the question why stop there? If you can create accounts, your software may as well be able to login and store created URLs as well. Avoiding the aggravation that comes with fat-fingered keystrokes is paramount with one account - image the headaches without automation when you have a thousand accounts.
