How to Make Money Online as an Expert for LivePerson

February 13th, 2010 by dingdans

span style=”font-style: italic;”Guest Post by Andy Walton/spanbr /br /If you’re reading this post there’s a decent chance you’re interested in making more money from your online writing. Whether you have your own blog or post on revenue sharing sites, the key is to maximise the return from each article published. So here are my the top 5 tips for optimising your copy, drawn from my experience of the best pages on Wikinut.br /br /span style=”font-weight: bold;”Grab your reader/spanbr /span style=”font-weight: bold;”————————————/spanbr /Each page you write should begin with an eye-catching headline – this starts the ball rolling. Make it interesting, give it an angle.br /br /A recent Wikinut example – “The Healthy Computer Geek’s Diet” – short, snappy and contains keywords; it also brings together health and geeks, a clever niche.br /br /But don’t stop there… make sure you follow it up with a great first paragraph. This is your first chance to introduce a cliff hanger, a teasing line that will leave your reader wanting more. Let’s face it, if your readers are already getting bored something is badly wrong.br /br /span style=”font-weight: bold;”Be positive/spanbr /span style=”font-weight: bold;”————————————/spanbr /Here’s something I’ve noticed – authors that are upbeat tend to get better responses. This is a hard factor to quantify and measure, so you’ll just have to take my word for it. Whether you’re looking for advert clicks or sign-ups, putting your reader in a positive mindset seems to illicit results even if your article isn’t directly asking them to respond.br /br /A top page in our jobs section about writing a great CV ended with – “Good luck and stay positive. Eventually you will find that great job – just keep working at it.”br /br /If you think about it, when was the last time you saw a salesperson using a negative, unenthusiastic approach?br /br /span style=”font-weight: bold;”Give your reasons/spanbr /span style=”font-weight: bold;”————————————/spanbr /This may sound obvious but if you are attempting to directly influence somebody into acting on your words, make sure you give them a damn good reason. It’s sometimes easy to lose focus on this as you struggle to compose your piece. People make decisions on the information they have to hand, and it’s your job as the author to educate them.br /br /This opening line from a page about starting an eBay business gives the reader reasons immediately – “Have you ever thought about running your own auction business? Like the freedom and flexibility that working for yourself offers?”br /br /span style=”font-weight: bold;”Show them the happy place/spanbr /span style=”font-weight: bold;”———————————–/spanbr /This is a classic technique and one that is worth remembering. Try to paint a picture in your reader’s mind of them enjoying the product, or whatever it is you’re offering. Take them beyond the act of response, which is often the biggest hurdle and help them imagine the benefits.br /br /For example, a Wikinut page about hosting the perfect dinner party ended with the following line – “You are now (hopefully) the host(ess) with the most(ess). Bask in the praise. Go on, soak it up. You deserve it. Cheers!”br /br /The reader cannot help but get enthused by this paragraph, and it’s a great example of the approach.br /br /span style=”font-weight: bold;”Call to action/spanbr /span style=”font-weight: bold;”———————————–/spanbr /Finally, you should include at least 1 direct call to action in your piece, by which I mean an instruction to your reader. In fact, you can go even further and demand or even order your audience to respond! If you have successfully achieved the first 4 steps above, you should have them in the palm of your hand…br /br /span style=”font-weight: bold;”Author Bio:/spanbr /Andy Walton is inviting you to use a href=”http://www.wikinut.com/”Wikinut/a , a new publishing platform that pays lifetime royalties for your writing on a massive range of topics.

The choices we make are ultimately what decide whether we are or not. There are many out there making money on eBay selling items on eBay in auctions daily. The question remains then if others have done it, then why not you?Many people are quite intimidated when it comes to having and running their own business. There are hundreds of people who miss out on a life changing opportunity when it comes to selling products on eBay. With selling products on eBay, you actually have a great opportunity to make some extra cash at your own leisure. The fact of the matter is, its never too late to make money on ebay.br /br /There is no greater satisfaction and joy than that of being your own boss. If you ever actually considered changing your life and going in a different direction; the making more money direction; Then selling on eBay is something to seriously consider.br /br /Selling products on eBay offers you a chance to secure your future and gives you the opportunity of becoming and a great success story as many others have done before you. Once you know the basics of selling on eBay, then you will have your foot in the door of the biggest online selling site in the world.br /br /Once you begin to sell on eBay however, you need to remember that this is a business and should be treated as such. You need to be professional in all your dealings and how you handle and carry out all aspects of it. Many sellers have turned their businesses on eBay into empires because of this. Of course some of them have been doing this for a long time, but if you apply yourself, in no time you’ll have the experience it takes to get to that level as well.br /br /Making sure that the products you are selling are correctly and accurately described is very important. If you give potential customers detailed information on what they are looking for, you will no doubt reap the rewards. Even the minutest detail when listing an item can make or break a sale for you.br /br /Remember that repeat customers are the key to success in any business and even more so online. You should always have a friendly and professional approach when dealing with all your potential clients. Answering what seems like a small and unimportant question from an interested customer could mean the difference of 3 to 4 bids on an item. Once a customer begins to trust you and you secure that customer; that will open the door for all the people he or she knows to buy from you as well. There’s no better business than the business of a regular customer.br /br /This all ties in to your feedback rating as well. There is nothing more important on eBay than your feedback. You can have the best product in the world and if your feedback is negative, you will not make the same amount, will not receive the same amount of bids as a bidder with a greater feedback would. Negative feedback could mean zero sales.br /br /Always remember the rules and regulations on eBay. They are there for your protection and the clients as well. Even if you don’t agree or like any of them, it is in the best interest of your online business to follow them.br /br /The end result, apart from meeting hundreds of new people from all around the world when you sell on eBay, is the satisfaction of having your own business empire and of course being your own boss!br /br /span style=”font-weight: bold;”Resource Box:/spanbr /a href=”http://www.dropshippingplanet.com/”Make money on ebay/a by following 28 videos and a straight up Dropshipping and Wholesale Guide found ata href=”http://www.dropshippingplanet.com/” http://www.dropshippingplanet.com/a which provides you with the top suppliers that have never been seen before!div class=”blogger-post-footer”img width=’1′ height=’1′ src=’https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/31431603-5824034330037615330?l=moneymakerinfo.blogspot.com’ alt=” //div

The internet marketers love it for its social aspect and the freedom which it gives to them. Sometimes the marketers lack the edge and Squidoo can provide you exactly that. You should never ignore this great internet marketing tool.br /br /Squidoo can help you to get more traffic to your site and blog; and getting more traffic means more money to you. There are few steps which will help you to do so more effectively. Here are those steps.br /br /• The very thing that you would need to take care of is the importance of giving something to the viewer. You will not get the visits to your website if you are not giving something valuable to the reader of the lens. Remember that this something can even be quality information. In fact quality information is the best thing that you can give to the reader. The readers will click your link if you have succeeded to make them read till the end with interest. So make sure that you are paying special attention to the quality of the content on the lens because this is going to help you a lot.br /br /• The profile tags are important. You will have to make sure that the tags are proper. The proper tags mean relevant tags. So if the tags are not relevant to your Squidoo, you will be at loss. You can even get your lens deleted. Apart from this potential danger, you will also be loosing many potential customers which are an unbearable loss for the online marketer. Also make sure that the relevant tags have a good search volume. There would be hundreds of relevant tags but you should find the tags which will give you high search volume. This will help you to attract more visitors to your lens.br /br /• The lens is like a webpage and this is how the search engines treat it. So that means the URL of the lens has the same importance as has the webpage. You will have to make sure that the URL is according to the requirements of the search engines for better optimization. What are those requirements? In fact there are no requirements but there are certain things which would help you to get a good rank with the search engines. You should follow them in your lens as well. One of them is to use shorter URLs with the keywords used in the name. This one small act will go a long way and will help you. Also do link building your lens. Get lot of relevant one-way links pointing to you lens and you’ll soon see your lens rank in Google and enjoy targeted traffic.br /br /• Make sure that you are pinging. Pinging will help you to get the attention of the people. They will instantly know that you have updated your lens and that there is something new to look for.div class=”blogger-post-footer”img width=’1′ height=’1′ src=’https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/31431603-6402873964810131433?l=moneymakerinfo.blogspot.com’ alt=” //div

How to Earn Money Using Your Skill

January 21st, 2010 by dingdans

span style=”font-style: italic;”Guest Post by Shaun Connell/spanbr /br /Having a blog is one thing; making money with the blog is another. Just about anyone can set up a blog in a matter of minutes, and write about whatever they wish. It takes some time, effort, and strategy to turn a blog into a moneymaking venture. If this is what you have in mind, here are some tips to help you get started.br /br /At the heart of any blog is the subject matter. The fact is that unless your blog appeals to enough people, there will never be enough traffic coming to your site to generate any real income. For this reason, you need to research topics before settling on one for your blog. Spend some time online, and find out what people are searching for online, then pick one of those core topics and make it the subject of your writing.br /br /For example, I have websites about both gold coins and financial advice — either of these is a fantastic choice for building a website on, in that there is a lot of competition for the visitors — hence, advertising revenue.br /br /Once you have settled on the topic for your blog, learn how to write the content to best effect. This means learning how to incorporate keywords and keyword phrases that people use often as they search for information online. Make sure that when you include these keywords in your blog posts, they make sense. Today, many search engines frown upon the random use of phrases in order to obtain higher rankings in searches; but if you use those phrases in context and in a manner that seems natural, there is a good chance those same search engines will smile on your efforts and bump your site a little higher in the results.br /br /Keep in mind that along with the quality of the content you post on the blog, you also will need to make sure the appearance of your blog is appealing. Part of this is to make sure the pages are configured so they load with relative ease. No one likes to wait forever as the elements of a page load. This is particularly important if the readers you want to reach are more likely to live in areas where dial-up services is the only way to establish a connection to the Internet. Select colors, graphics, and images with care, and make sure the entire page looks great and loads within a reasonable amount of time. Doing this will insure that you will make money online.br /br /With your blog up and running, you also need to address how to go about earning money from the site. If you sell products of your own, the obvious answer is to make sure there are links to your online store included on each page. For people who do not have an online retail business, partnering with an ad service is a great way to make money. Essentially, every time someone visits your site and clicks on one of those ads, there is a chance to make some money off the blog.br /br /Keep in mind that how those ads make you money varies. With some, you will receive a small amount each time anyone clicks on those ads and is redirected to another site. This is known as a pay per click ad. Other ad programs are configured so that you only earn money if the activity results in a sale, also known as pay per sale. Make sure you know how any ad partner you consider will pay you, if there are any minimum earnings you must accumulate before receiving a payment, and how much control you have over the ads displayed on your site. Ideally, you want liberal payment terms and the ability to veto an ad that you think is not in keeping with the content of your site.br /br /Even with all these elements in place, there is still one more important thing you must do if you want your site to make money: advertise. This can include such strategies as including a link to the blog in your email signature, creating accounts on social networking sites and actively promoting the blog, and making use of link exchanges to spread the word about what you have to offer. Don’t downplay the potential of word of mouth to friends and family to spread the word about your blog. Even printing business cards with the blog URL included and leaving them around as you visit restaurants, airport terminals, and other public places can help you pick up some additional traffic over time.br /br /Good blogs that earn money over time don’t always turn a quick profit. Assuming you’ve done your homework and you can see incremental increases from week to week in your site statistics, the money will come. Exercise patience, always be open to new ways to make the blog more attractive and inviting to potential visitors, and never assume that the blog is as good as it can ever get. As with any business, blogging takes effort and commitment if it is to become anything other than a hobby.br /br /span style=”font-weight: bold;”Author Bio:/spanbr /Shaun Connell loves writing and publishing blogs, and manages websites dealing with things from a href=”http://financialadvicehelp.com/”financial advice/a to a href=”http://learngoldcoins.com/”gold coins/a.
