Multiple Streams of Income: The Internet Part 8

Traffic generation is an important tactic to master. The more traffic you have coming to your site, the better your conversion ratio should be. I say “should” because traffic alone is not enough. Website content, ad placement, and follow-ups are just as, if not more important than traffic.

Think about it like this. If a visitor comes to your website but does not like what he/she reads, will that person come back? Obviously, the answer is no. On the other hand, a visitor may love your content and return repeatedly. However, if your ad placement is bad and you do not follow-up, you essentially cut off streams of income that could be producing tons of dollars!

Many ways exist to obtain traffic. If you have read my previous posts, you know that article submission (which creates backlinks) generates traffic. Other ways to obtain traffic are:

(1) Link exchange;

(2) Search Engine Submission;

(3) Search Engine Optimization;

(4) Viral Marketing; and

(5) Friend Networks (MySpace, FaceBook, etc.)


The above list is not exhaustive. However, it does list some powerful methods for obtaining website traffic.

Each of the above methods will be covered in subsequent posts. Note that these methods are time consuming and will take some diligence before you see results if you choose to do each manually. Options do exist that will significantly reduce the time you spend on these tasks and at the same time will increase your traffic. Less time and more traffic is far better than more time and less traffic!

Currently, over 50 MILLION website are on the Internet. How would you like your website to be #10,000? I know that being # 10,000 does not sound that good, however, to put this into perspective, if your website is #10,000 in traffic ranking for all websites, this means that you are generating hundreds of thousands if not MILLIONS of visitors per month! Could you imagine if you had that many visitors to your website?

Adsense and Adbrite are two programs you can use to monetize your website or blog. Put simply, all you do is copy code into your website and advertisements will appear. Every time a visitor clicks on one of the ads, you will get paid. The price per click depends on the ads you are showing. Do not woory about having to learn HTML code or anything like that, because both Adsense and Adbrite are easy to use and offer step-by-step instructions.

Sign-up for Adsense and Adbrite are both FREE, so you have nothing to lose.

A couple of things you should note:

(1) Clicking on your on advertisements is considered “click fraud” and will result in an immediate cancellation of your account and any money due. DO NOT CLICK ON YOUR OWN ADS!

(2) Rules exist as to where and how many ads you can place on a webpage. Make sure you read the Terms of Service for both Adsense and Adbrite so that you do not get your account cancelled.

(3) The amount of traffic you bring to your website will help generate a steady Adsense and Adbrite income. The more traffic you get coming to your website, the better the chance that somebody will click on one of your ads. Therefore, TRAFFIC = INCOME. However, some exceptions apply.

It is important to note that traffic alone will NOT create a substantial income from Adsense and Adbrite. You have to know how to get people to click on advertisements. The Adsense Decoded Videos have gotten great reviews! The best part about the Adsense Decoded Videos is that it shows you how to turn a significant profit even if you do not have much traffic!

However, if you do not like to watch videos or learn better by reading, and want your information instantly, the Adsense Whizz Kid is also a great product. The best part about Adsense Whizz Kid is that you get a FREE 31 Page Report just for visiting the website!

Whatever you decide, take advantage of these of these programs so that you can build another, potentially massive, stream of internet income!

Multiple Streams of Income: The Internet Part 1

Let me start by saying that this multiple streams of income series is going to be long. There are going to be many posts over many days, but all should provide help and usefulness. We start with the Internet.

Entrepreneurs come in all shapes and sizes. Some have very specialized education, some are high school dropouts. However, all entrepreneurs share one distinct quality. That quality is the drive, the motivation, the desire to better our current situation. All of us share a deep seeded passion to create a better life for ourselves and our loved ones. As such, we have the talent to succeed in whatever venture we choose. Do not be discouraged if you lack a formal education or are attempting an investment in a new field. As long as you possess that deep seeded passion to achieve greatness, at whatever level, you will find your version of success.

On that note, we begin with the Internet and the most obvious question, “Do I need a website?” There are two ways to approach this problem. You can either spend money or try it for free. Do not get me wrong, I firmly believe the old adage that “it takes money to make money,” however, if you are a new entrepreneur, you may not have much money to invest. As such, you will want to conserve your money for your most important purchases. Therefore, why pay for a website when you can get one for free? A free website will most likely come in the form of a blog.

The word “blog” is an abbreviation for the phrase “web log.” Think of a blog as an Internet diary that the whole world can read. People post personal thoughts, ideas, conversation, or whatever they want in order to share with the world. However, as blogging has become more popular, people have used blogs as a marketing tool. For those of you that want to save some cash, you should check out (1) Blogger; (2) Wordpress; (3) MySpace; and (4) Live Journal to name a few. If you do not like any of these just search the terms “free blog” in the search engine of your choice.

Advantages of Blogging
• It is usually free
• Easy to use
• Many services and products to assist you in blog formation and creation
• Easy to find help with questions

Disadvantages of Blogging
• Your website will have a subname. For example, your website will not be www.yoursitename.com. Instead, you site will likely not have a “www” prefix or will have a name like www.blogservice.yourwebsitename.com.
• Harder to create multiple pages
• Webpage look usually limited to available templates

The choice is up to you. Buying a website can be expensive depending on the hosting you choose and whether or not you are competent with website design. Blogs provide a great alternative and are usually free. Do your homework and figure out which is better for your needs and wants.
