Here are the simple basic principles you need to apply for you to start earning some cash with ease. It could be done at home,office or any cybercafe at your own lissure. All you need to do is just to setup a blog. For more information on how to setup a blog,visit http://www.navinfobox.blogspot.com for a step by step detail on how to setup a blog. You just need to work on simple blogs that will earn an average of $10 a day using Adsense. I know this isn’t a huge amount of money, only about $300 a month. However, it’s relatively easy to create such a blog so you can setup at least 3 sites per month without too much trouble. Soon it begins to add up to some really decent earnings. I’m also going to concentrate primarily on using free tools to do this. While there are paid tools like SEO Elite, Keyword Elite, Bookmarking Demon and many others that can help automate this process I’m going to concentrate on the cheapest route to earning cash online here.
Keyword Research
The first thing is to decide on the right niche to target. You want to avoid high competition keywords where some real Adsense and SEO pros are dominating search results. You’re unlikely to get to page 1 or even page 5 in Google search results with these keywords unless you have a lot of time to spend. You also want to avoid keywords that don’t pay well. There are many keywords that only pay a penny or two a click. What we want are keywords where we can get an average of $1 a click.
How can you tell which ones to select? Easy, go to Google’s Adwords keyword tool and enter keywords that you want to research. Keep researching until you have a short list of promising keywords. Make sure that you display the price per click and divide that number by 4 or 5 to determine the most likely price per click you’ll get on your site. For example, if the Estimated Avg. CPC in the Adwords tool shows $4.80 then your average earnings per click will be about $1.06. You will also want to find keywords that get reasonable traffic. While lower traffic niches can be profitable, they can also be frustrating. I’d recommend looking for between 2000 and 20000 searches a month to start with to get the best beginner results.
Now, go to Google and search for the keywords using the SEOQuake browser plugin. Look at the top 10 ranking sites and see what their Google PageRank, Google pages indexed and Yahoo backlinks they have. If these numbers are high and the page shown in results is an exact keyword match, then move on to your next keyword. If there is no keyword match or if they have few links you may have a winner. For borderline cases, this will require further analysis that’s beyond the scope of our discussion here. This article, Targeted Keyword Research, describes the process in a little more depth.
Oh, an remember we’re looking for buying keywords, not informational keywords. I discussed this in this previous article: Buying keywords. forturnately, in most cases, better paying keywords are already going to be buying keywords.
Build Your Niche Blog
We’re going to go cheap here and not buy a domain and put WordPress on it. Instead, we’re going to use a plain old ugly Blogger blog. There are some potential drawbacks and pluses associated with using them and if you want to review the pros and cons, check out this article I wrote a while ago on the subject: Niche Blog Hosting: WordPress vs. Blogger. Update: I’ve heard through the grapevine that Google now requires that you have your own domain that has been indexed at least 90 days old to be approved for a new Adsense account. If this is true you will need to buy at least one domain and wait it out, get approval for that domain and then you can use the account anywhere you want as long as you’re within the Adsense rules. If you have already been previously approved for an Adsense account you’re OK though.
You’ll want to select a name that matches your primary keyword. It is likely that your primary keyword will already be taken. If this is case, just add a filler word to the name such as ‘mykeyword’ or ‘thekeyword’ or ‘keywordinfo’. The important thing is to get our keyword in the URL.
We’ll want to use the simple Minima template, we don’t want a fancy blog, we want just another ugly Blogger blog. We will also want to set it up to show only one post per page since this helps Google’s search and Adsense ‘bots to get the exact keywords for your article and not get confused. The blog title and description should be for the primary keyword and secondary long tail keywords that you want to target with only filler words between them. You can add some navigation widgets to the sidebar if you want but don’t overdo this. I also recommend that you add in a Statcounter and/or Google Analytics counter to your footer. This will help you track the performance of your keywords.
Creating Niche Blog Content
Now we’re ready to create some content for our blog. I generally prefer to create content offline in an editor like Microsoft Live Writer, Microsoft Word or even Windows Notepad. There are plenty of tools you can use to do this. I just like doing it this way so that I have a local backup copy of my articles. Start off with writing about 10 articles. The title will use your primary keyword, for example “Earn Online Cash” with matching long tails like “Earn Online Cash with Adsense”. Begin and end your article with a sentence that uses your primary keyword and include it several times throughout the article but don’t overdo it. If you need some more tips on writing, let me know and I’ll point you to some other articles I’ve written on this topic.
You will also want to create a ‘policies’ post since this is required for Adsense. You can combine this with a simple ‘about me’. This will be the first post you add to your new blog. Remember that it should follow the same naming conventions as other posts for example: “Earn Online Cash: Policies”. Add a link to this post in your sidebar so that it will always be just one click away from any other page on your blog.
Now add 3 of your content posts to the blog. You’ll add a new post about once a week until all of your original posts are up. After that, you’ll only need to post infrequently, if at all. New posts can help bring more keywords into the blog but, as long as you’re getting good search engine traffic, updating can be at your leisure.
Promote Your Niche Blog
Promoting your blog is primarily getting it indexed and getting links to it.
You might want to start with the techniques I describe in this article: Quick Indexing. While you can’t add all those ping sites to Blogger like you can WordPress you can use some of the pinging sites to ping others. I also suggest that you submit your site to RSS aggregation sites. JR at “Get Internet Marketing Strategies” has a good list of them here: RSS/Blog Submission Sites. You don’t have to submit to all of them and some won’t accept Blogger blogs but you can find enough to get your rolling. Remember the primary idea is to use these resources for indexing of new content.
Now, we’ll want to build links to our blog. There are a number of different strategies here and people generally settle on ones that work well for them. I’ll give you a few basic methods here and you can work on it from there.
One good way to get some basic links is to use social bookmarking. JR has some good lists of sites in these two articles: Do-Follow Social Sites and High PR Do-Follow Social Sites. There are other list around that you can use. In general, you want to look for social sites that are do-follow and will allow Blogger blogs.
Another way to build links to your site is to have promotional sites of your own. You can use Squidoo, Synthasite, Blinkweb and other free sites to build single page sites to promote your site. You should also seek out other blogs and forums in your niche and related niches and leave comments there with a link to your site without being spammy. I cover this in more in depth in this article: Driving Traffic to Your Site.
With reasonable link building promotional work you should begin to see search traffic for your keywords within a relatively short period of time. What you’re looking for is for your blog to be on page one of Google for your select keyword. If it’s not, then the niche may be more competitive than you realized and you’ll have to put more promotional effort into it. If you are in the #1 position and you aren’t getting traffic then the problem may be that the keyword you select doesn’t produce enough traffic. In this case, you might try targeting different keywords or retire the blog to a supporting, promotional, role.
Add Adsense to Your Niche Blog
OK, now that you’re getting traffic to your niche blog and it’s steady traffic, it’s time to add Adsense. My recommendation is to add a single large rectangle block at the top and, optionally, a wide skyscraper in the sidebar. This should result in a good click through rate as long as you’ve selected a good buying keyword. Since you’re already getting search traffic to your site it will be easy for the Adsense ‘bot to determine what your blog is about and begin serving appropriate ads.
At this point, you should begin to see clicks and revenue from your blog. It will take a few weeks for the pricing of your site to settle down so expect some wild gyrations in income at first. Eventually, it will settle down.
If your earnings stay low this may indicate a problem with your keyword selection. Try editing your articles to better emphasize the higher paying keywords and de-emphasizing lower paying ones.
If your CTR is low, typically under 3%, this may indicate that you haven’t selected a good buying keyword or your traffic is from a niche that’s somewhat jaded or resistant when it comes to Adsense ads. If this is the case, you may want to try moving toward better keywords with new posts, move the blog to a supporting role or just live with the lower click through rate. Remember that a low CTR won’t hurt you but a low CTR with clicks that don’t convert might hurt you.
Earn Cash with Your Niche Blog
Remember the key to this method is not to get bogged down and obsess over one blog but to keep moving. The more blogs you create and the more promotion (aka links) that you do the better your chance will be at earning cash online.
Whew! This was a long article. Way too long. I should have padded it out and made it into an eBook and sold it for $47 or made some money some other way like having you sign up for a membership site or an email list, right? Well, I’m just trying to do the same thing that people who helped me, like Griz at How to Make Money Online for Beginners, did, offer good, solid, information for free with no strings attached. I hope you can use this information to earn cash online and feel free to ask any questions if you have them.

HOW TO STIMULATE YOUR SUBCONCIOUS MIND INTO GREAT RICHES
FIRST: Go into some quiet spot (preferably in bed at night) where you will not be disturbed or interrupted, close your eyes and repeat aloud, (so you may hear your own words) the written statement of the amount of money you intend to accumulate, the time limit for its accumulation, and a description of the service or merchandise you intend to give in return of the money. As you carryout these instructions, see yourself already in possession of the money. For example, suppose that you intend to accumulate N1,000, 000 by the first of January, 5 years hence, that you intend to give personal services in return for the money, in the capacity of a sales man. A written statement of your purpose should be similar to the following: "By the first day of January I will have in my possession N1,000, 000 which will come to me in various amounts from time to time during the interim. In return for this money I will give the most efficient services of which I am capable, rendering the fullest possible quantity, and the best possible quality of service." You believe that you will have this money in your possession. Your fate is so strong that you can now see this money before your eyes. You can touch it with your hands. It is now awaiting as far to me at the time, and in the proportion to the service that you intend to render in return for it. You are awaiting a plan by which you intend to accumulate this money, and you will follow that plan, when it is received.
SECOND: repeat this program night and morning until you can see (in your imagination) the money you intend to accumulate.
THIRD: place a written copy of your statement where you can see it night and morning, and read it just before retiring, and upon arising until it has been memorized.
Remember, as you carry out this instructions, that you are Appling the principle of auto-suggestion, for the purpose of giving orders to your subconscious mind. Remember, also, that your subconscious mind will act only upon instructions which are emotionalized, and handed over to it with feelings. Faith is the strongest and most productive of the emotions. Do not let this disturb you. Follow the instructions, no matter how impractical or abstract they may, at first, appear to be. The time will soon come if you do as you have been instructed, in spirit as well as in act, when a whole new universe of power will be unfold to you.

SIX POWERFUL WAYS TO TURN YOUR DESIRES INTO GREAT RICHES
The methods by which desire for riches can be transmuted into its financial equivalent consist of six definite, practical steps, via:
FIRST: fix in your mind the exact amount you desire. It is not sufficient merely to say “I want plenty of money”. Be definite as to the amount. (There is always a psychological reason for definiteness in any thing you do.)
SECOND: Determine exactly what you intend to give in return for the money you desire. (There is no such reality as nothing for something.”)
THIRD: Establish a definite date when you intend to posses the money you desire.
FOURTH: Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire, and begin at once, whether you are ready or not, to put this plan into action.
FIFTH: Write out a clear, concise statement of the amount of money you intend to acquire, name the time limit for its acquisition, state what you intend to give in return for the money, and describe clearly the plan through which you intend to accumulate it.
SIXTH: Read your written statement aloud, twice daily, once just before retiring at night, and once after rising in the morning. As you read-see and feel and believe yourself already in possession of the money.
It is important that you follow the six steps as described in these six steps. It is especially impotent that you observe, and follow the instruction in the six paragraphs. You may complain that it is impossible for you to “see yourself I possession of the money “before you actually have it. Here is where a burning desire will come to your aid. If you truly desire money so keenly that your desire is an obsession, you will have no difficulty in convincing yourself that you will acquire it. The object is to want money, and become so determined to have it.

REASONS TO QUIT YOUR JOB AND MAKE MONEY THROUGH INTERNET
One of the main reasons why an individual is unsuccessful in their job is the fact that they do not like their work. If you don’t enjoy what you are doing you are much less likely to put as much commitment, effort and enthusiasm into your work as you would if you liked your job. If you agree with any of the following questions, you may need to consider leaving your job and pursuing the world of online marketing and freelancing. It is relatively easy to earn money from internet, but if you don't love doing that, don't.
1. My job is boring, I just wait for the clock to reach 5pm so I can go home but the day seems to last forever.When you work at home and start earning online, you don’t need to worry about practicing a 9-5 schedule. You pick the hours you work and when you work them. If you need a break, no one will stop you. You are in complete control.
2. I need more flexible working hours to accommodate my family schedules, but my job is too strict.You decide how much or how little you work. If you need more money, work extra hours. If you need some time off, simply take it when you need it. Flexibility is a key benefit of working for your self.
3. I keep going from one job to another. None of them seem to satisfy me.Perhaps regular jobs just aren’t for you? There’s nothing quite like being self employed, it’s both invigorating and provides the ultimate workplace freedom.
4. My salary is far too low, I deserve much more than what I’m being paid.You set the wage you want to earn, set your rates per hour and work out your business plan. Then work to it as much or as little as you like. This means your earnings are almost limitless; all the money just goes directly to you.
5. My boss doesn’t know what he/she is doing; I wish I could be my own boss.You can, start earning money online today and become your own boss.
6. I hate having to grab holiday’s a year in advance or fight with other co-workers over a day off. I wish I could just go on holiday whenever I needed or wanted to.As your own boss you don’t need to ask permission to book a holiday. If you need time off, take it off. It’s up to you when you work.
7. I’m much happier when I’m working online on my computer; I wish I could use that to make money!Making money online is easy and fun with a little time and effort on your part. If your favorite hobby is computers, you’ll have no problems at all making money.
8. My commuting time is ridiculous and costs me a fortune. I wish I didn’t have to travel to work.You don’t need to go to an office to work online. All you need is a computer and internet access at home and you can eliminate traveling to work altogether. Just roll out of bed in the morning and there you are!
9. I simply can’t do full time work anymore, I need a part time job that’s flexible.You don’t have to earn money online full time. You choose your hours and how many of them you do. It’s completely your choice.
10. I’m not happy in my job; I want to do something that really makes me enjoy my working day.Earning money online can help you to achieve job fulfillment. If you put in enough time and effort overall, your online business can provide you with enough regular income to free up your time and allow you to concentrate on more important and more fun activities. Making money online is easy and fun, once you know how.

How to Write Effective Product Reviews for Successful Affiliate Marketing
Posted by Alan Liew 12:16 PM

Publishing product reviews is the best way to attract potential customers and earn affiliate commissions. This is why affiliate marketers constantly find themselves writing reviews for all sorts of products. However, simply describing a product will not work for affiliate marketing. If you want to make money out of affiliate marketing, your product reviews must be convincing. To ensure that your product reviews will bring you affiliate commissions, follow the steps below:
1) State a ProblemAt the beginning of your review, you need to state a problem or issue that your target market faces. Recognizing the desire for something will also work. This way, anyone who relates with the problem, issue, or desire will be more likely to read on
.2) Outline the SolutionDescribe a general solution to whatever it is that you used as an introduction. In this section, illustrate what the product can do without mentioning what the product is. Doing this will give readers an impression of what an ideal product is
.3) Introduce the ProductThis is the portion where you introduce your product as having the exact characteristics as what you just described as an ideal product. This will help readers quickly realize the importance of the product you are reviewing
.4) Describe the ProductOutline the benefits of what you are reviewing in terms of addressing the problem, issue, or desire you stated. It would be best if you could recount your own experience with the product so that readers will get a better idea of what they can gain out of it. This is also the part where you can state flaws or disadvantages but make it clear that the benefits outweigh the drawbacks
.5) Summarize Your ReviewThis is where you restate everything you have described in a few simple sentences. By doing this, you reinforce all the product benefits in your readers' minds.The steps above will help you compose convincing product reviews. Follow them and you will find that you can make money out of affiliate marketing almost effortlessly.

Publishing product reviews is the best way to attract potential customers and earn affiliate commissions. This is why affiliate marketers constantly find themselves writing reviews for all sorts of products. However, simply describing a product will not work for affiliate marketing. If you want to make money out of affiliate marketing, your product reviews must be convincing. To ensure that your product reviews will bring you affiliate commissions, follow the steps below:
1) State a ProblemAt the beginning of your review, you need to state a problem or issue that your target market faces. Recognizing the desire for something will also work. This way, anyone who relates with the problem, issue, or desire will be more likely to read on
.2) Outline the SolutionDescribe a general solution to whatever it is that you used as an introduction. In this section, illustrate what the product can do without mentioning what the product is. Doing this will give readers an impression of what an ideal product is
.3) Introduce the ProductThis is the portion where you introduce your product as having the exact characteristics as what you just described as an ideal product. This will help readers quickly realize the importance of the product you are reviewing
.4) Describe the ProductOutline the benefits of what you are reviewing in terms of addressing the problem, issue, or desire you stated. It would be best if you could recount your own experience with the product so that readers will get a better idea of what they can gain out of it. This is also the part where you can state flaws or disadvantages but make it clear that the benefits outweigh the drawbacks
.5) Summarize Your ReviewThis is where you restate everything you have described in a few simple sentences. By doing this, you reinforce all the product benefits in your readers' minds.The steps above will help you compose convincing product reviews. Follow them and you will find that you can make money out of affiliate marketing almost effortlessly.
