Tips For Getting Approved By BuySellAds

BuySellAds is an online network of advertisers and publishers who are mutually supported.BuySellAds has long been the most successful of these kind of networks and has earned the trust of both publishers and advertisers alike.Getting approved for BuySellAds is very tough, in fact it is about a 100 times tougher than getting accepted into Adsense and yet many bloggers treat this as an adsense alternative.


BuySellAds can be a great source or revenue for a blogger if they have a blog with a decent amount of traffic on it.I personally feel that these kind of networks (BuySellAds, BlogAds etc) can earn more for a blogger than adsense.If making money online is your aim then you need to strive to get accepted into the BuySellAds network.


BuySellAds

How to get accepted into BuySellAds?

The below stated points are those put forward by BuySellAds themselves to help the publishers, so they can be taken as information from the horses mouth.

  • Your blog must be getting a lot of traffic.Atleast 50000 page views a month to be able to enter the BuySellAds network as a publisher, without this much minimum traffic, they just won't accept your blog, unless you have another well established site already in BuySellAds.
  • Your blog must not be something that you made a few days back, it needs to have a lot of content and must have been established a while back.BuySellAds does not mention how old a blog must be before it gets approved, but the general notion is that a blog must be at-least 5 or 6 months old.
  • Your blog must have fresh content, unique and well written content.You cannot just copy something from other blogs (this can lead to a panda penalty).You need high quality content before even dreaming of getting into BuySellAds.
  • If your blog is non-english then you need to very high traffic to get accepted into the BuySellAds network.
  • Your blog must not have a lot of ads, especially untargeted ads, pop-ups etc.The homepage is recommended to be free of ads, read - making a better home page.
  • Your blog must have its own domain name, if you have a .blogspot.com or a .wordpress.com, it won't be accepted.
Now, let us look into some of the other requirements which have been observed by many bloggers including myself about the BuySellAds approval process.
  • You blog must have an Alexa Rank of below 100000 at-least.But this does not guarantee the inclusion of a site into BuySellAds.You have a more realistic chance of getting approved by BuySellAds if your Alexa rank is below 50000, if your Alexa Rank is below 10000 and your site is of decent quality then your blog will surely be accepted.
  • Your blog must have a page rank of at-least 3, although lower page rank websites do get accepted, page rank 3 and above are more likely to get accepted by BuySellAds.Look to build quality backlinks to increase your page rank.See when the next page rank update will occur.
  • At the time of applying, do not use rival ad networks such as BlogAds.
  • Your blog must have a very professional design and must have hundreds, if not thousands of followers from Facebook, Twitter and RSS.
So, if your blog fulfills all these needs, then you are pretty much sure to get added to the BuySellAds network.What do you guys think about BuySellAds? Please leave a comment below!

Google Adsense Premium Publisher Information

Google Adsense Premium Publishers are a select group of people who run websites that get tons, literally tons of traffic and are of high quality.These publishers have many advantages and special features that normal Adsense Publishers do not have.

How To Be a Google Adsense Premium Publisher?
It is reported widely that a Google Adsense Premium Publisher requires to have at-least 20 Million page views a month or 5 Million search queries leading to their site.I feel this is not a bench mark that is set in stone as Amit Agarwal of Labnol.org is a premium publisher with just around 3 Million hits a month and Amit Bhawani of AmitBhawani.com is also a premium publisher with an Alexa Rank of 22000.So there is no exact benchmark to be classified as an Adsense Premium Publisher.

There is also no way of actually applying to the Google Adsense Premium Publisher Program, it is a by invitation group only.If Google sees fit to provide you with premium features and they feel that it would help their business, then they will themselves offer you to become a premium publisher.

What Are The Advantages Of a Google Adsense Premium Publisher?
A Google Adsense Premium Publisher has many different advantages that a normal publisher can only dream of, such as -

  • No need to have the "AdChoices" or "Ads By Google" logo.
  • Customization of ads is allowed, you can change color, size, font etc of the ads using CSS.
  • Direct links to search queries allowed (Adsense for search)
  • Allowed to place more than three ads on each page
  • Allowed to negotiate the share of earnings being given to the publisher
  • Have their own Adsense experts and ad managers to call upon at any time
So becoming a Google Adsense Premium Publisher is a tough task, but once you are a Google Adsense Premium Publisher, then your earnings will sky rocket and you can truly earn a six figure income.

Make Money Online On eBay Easily

If you are looking to start up an online store, it is always good to consider all options and all revenue areas of sale. Many people turn to ebay as a starting place and while this can work very well for some, it should be noted that it does take a considerable amount of time and effort in order to make the business profitable.
The first and most important part is to do you research. You will have to pay a small listing fee for every item you post and the chances are it will remain unsold, so you not only need to spend time on researching what does sell and what doesn't sell, but you need to understand what will make your listing attractive to the buyers in order to stand out from the crowd. Small differences in the wording of the listing, the title of the listing and the photos can makes all the difference in the sale of the item and it is well worth putting in the time and the effort in getting this right, otherwise you may find it very hard to make your online store profitable.

ebayEbay Pulse
The first place to look to see what is selling is a website produced by ebay - ebay pulse. This provides invaluable information on the top ten searches in every category. You will be able to see what people are searching for and also the largest stores in your chosen category. It is always worth visiting the largest stores in your chosen category to see how they do it. You will be able to see the pricing structure and also the wording they may have in their title. Chances are these store have spent a great deal of time on research and testing, so it is well worth taking notes.

Photographs
A picture is all the buyer has to go on in the sale of the item and it is vital to ensure you have the best quality pictures in your listings. This is the part that will be the most time consuming, so it is worth to ask the wholesalers if they already have photos you can use in your ebay listing. If not, you will need to spend the time perfecting your photo skills to ensure your items look like something not to be missed.

Ebay shop vs Private listing
Although having an ebay shop as a business seller will save you on insertion fees, it is always worth starting small in order to test the water, find out what is selling and also to get more experience in the selling process. An ebay shop does cost more, and you need to have a high volume of items to make it more cost effective. In reality having a store does not greatly increase your chances of selling, so it is not something to be too concerned with at the beginning phase.

Cost of selling
You need to pay special attention to the selling fees in ebay and paypal, as well as the profit in the item and the postage. Remember you will not sell every item you list, however every item you list will incur a listing fee. After time you will know the percentage of the items sold, to add in to the basic cost of the item, but to start with 1 item sold in ten can be a good starting point. It is only after you have subtracted all of the selling costs from the final sale price you will find what money you are actually making. In reality in a site that is focused on price and low cost goods, profit margins are going to  be tight.

Many people do make a successful living selling on ebay - all it takes is a bit of practice. Practice and perseverance will pay off in the end, so don´t give up.

Author Says: You can save up to 30% off your postage costs with the use of a franking machine. With a high volume this will greatly increase your profit margins. It is worth to compare machine prices to get the best deal.

Making Money Online For Bloggers and Webmasters - 

Basic Requirements: A Website, Blog, or Forum etc.

A blogger or a webmaster probably has more options of making a good amount of money online that anyone else.The world on internet revolves around Websites and Blogs run by individuals or groups.Most of the advertising is done in blogs or websites, so naturally there are tons of opportunities to make money online from blogs and websites.Here I am going to discuss a few different ways a Blogger or Webmaster can make money online.

Google Adsense - The Best Monetization Tool 
We have briefly introduced you to what Google Adsense is, so let us move on to how you can make money online from Google Adsense.First of all, you need to have a website or a blog to apply for Google Adsense.Adsense has a rigorous acceptance policy, they will not accept single page websites or websites which look like pure spam.So you need to develop a decent website before applying for Google Adsense.

Read - How To Get Approved By Google Adsense?

Once you have been approved for Google Adsense, you will need to install the Adsense Ads into your blog or website.This is a fairly simple process, but if you are unable to do so, we have a tutorial for that as-well.

How Does Google Adsense Work?
When someone clicks on the ads being shown on your website, for each click you will get some money, from a few cents to a few dollars per click.There is some serious technology behind the ads and the ads as well as the clicks are tracked for any suspicious behavior, so do not try to cheat the system, it does not work.

Google Adsense is the prime source of money for many big time bloggers such as Amit Agarwal, Daniel Rowse etc who are 6 figure income bloggers.So Adsense is a proven and trustworthy system, that you can rely on, provided you have a decent amount of traffic.

Google Adsense is the best monetization technique for small time bloggers and webmasters.

What If I don't Get Accepted Into The Adsense Network?

Worry not, there are always alternatives to everything in life, even for Adsense.Below, we have mentioned some of the best alternatives to Google Adsense in making money online -

Adbrite
Chitika
Bidvertiser
Infolinks
--> Affiliates - Another way to Make Money Online for a Blogger

We have introduced you to the concept of Affiliates in the definitions earlier, there are several companies and advertising agencies that offer Affiliate opportunities to bloggers and webmasters to make money online.Basically for this kind of "Make Money Online" tool, you need a lot of traffic, a lot visitors to your site.Hence this type of monetization is not suitable for small time bloggers and webmasters.

Several webmasters and Bloggers make tons of money online using affiliates, for example, Harsh Agrawal of Shoutmeloud has reported that he made 1100$ from HostGator Affiliates alone in the month of May 2012.Here is the full report which includes how much the blogger has made from various affiliates, this should give you a good idea.



As you can see, this webmaster has used several affiliates and has had really good returns.He has made over 2000$ that month from Affiliate Earnings alone.

So what are the best Affiliate Programs for Bloggers?

There are literally thousands of Affiliates Programs out there, the right one for you depends on your niche and the type of traffic you get.If you are running a Tech, Blogging, Web Design, SEO kind of blog then HostGator would be your best bet.I have included some more good affiliate programs for Bloggers -

HostGator Affiliates
Commission Junction - For all types of Niche and Bloggers
WordPress Thesis Affiliates
Amazon AssociatesFor all types of Niche and Bloggers
eBay Partner ProgramFor all types of Niche and Bloggers

Direct Advertising - A huge revenue source for us.

Direct Advertising has been a great source of revenue for us.This type of Make Money Online solution is fit for those bloggers and webmasters who get at-least a 100000 views a month, as advertisers look for those sites which get a lot of traffic or they will not advertise with you.Most of the top blogs and websites use this type of revenue source a lot.

We have managed to earn several hundred dollars a month using Direct Advertising.

Where To Find Advertisers?
Advertisers can be found in several ways, once you are confident that your site has enough number of visitors, then you can contact those advertisers who fit your niche.Try to make a list of all the companies that may be interested in advertising at your blog, set the rates competitively and you should start seeing some offers.

You can also use these middle-men sites that have a good list of advertisers that they are in contact with and hence can help you find good advertisers that fit your blog or website, you will have to apply to join these networks, they have stringent acceptance policies.

BuySellAds
BlogAds

These two are the leading sites in online direct advertising, you get paid beforehand and the payment does not depend on the number of clicks the ads get.

CPM Advertising - Make Money For Impressions

CPM ads are those ads that pay you for the number of impressions you get on an ad, rather than the number of clicks that an ad gets (like Google Adsense).Most of these CPM Ad Networks ask you to set a rate for every thousand impressions, usually the rate would around 1-2$ for every thousand impressions(This is how much you can expect to make from Adsense as-well).Be careful not to set your ad rates too high as there won't be any advertisers who pay that high.

Some CPM ad networks offer back-fill ads, which means, when they are not able to serve ads that meet your price requirements, you can automatically choose to display Public Service Ads or fall back to Adsense or any other CPC network.

What Are the Good CPM Ad Networks?
There are several hundred CPM Ad-Networks but only a few them are legit and pay well, we have made a list below for you to use.

AdBrite
Tribal Fusion
AdPepper
AdTegrity
CPX Interactive

Among these, Tribal Fusion is probably the best and highest paying CPM Ad-Network.But they have a high traffic requirement of 500000 Hits a month.If your blog has this much traffic, then you can go for it, otherwise AdBrite would be your best bet.

In-Text Advertising - The Reader Unfriendly Ads
In-Text adverising is that kind of advertising that displays ads on your content text,the keywords in your content will automatically get links to ads that the ad network thinks is suitable, personally I do not recommend this type of advertising, it does not pay really high and it distracts your visitors creating a bad impression on your readers, which is the worst thing that can happen to a blogger.There are several ad-networks that offer in-text ads but only one of them is actually know to pay out to its customers.Here it is -

InfoLinks

Paid Posts And Freelance Writing 

Make Money Blogging Online
We have introduced you to the term paid posts earlier, paid posts can include reviews or news about a start up or a company looking for some exposure and recognition.This is actually a type of advertising.The brand looking for recognition usually gives the blogger a set of things to include in the post and the blogger delivers the goods.

The really big blogs charge around 300-400$ for a paid review, while the smaller lesser known blogs settle for around 20-30$ a post.You can find brands looking for paid posts here -

ReviewMe

If you are a good writer, then do not need to really have your own blog, you can freelance write at different well known and lesser known blogs that offer money for good quality original content produced by a skilled writer.

There are many people that I know who write for many blogs in return for some money, these people enjoy writing and this is a requisite for freelance writing.

e-Books - The Next Step For Bloggers

Once you have reached the peak of blogging, you can start to think of author e-books.If you have a good knowledge about a certain topic then you can think of writing your own e-book and publishing on platforms such as kindle.

Read - My Publishing Experience on Kindle.

One of the most famous Blogger turned e-book author is Darren Rowse of ProBlogger.net.He lead a successful blog and then turned to e-book writing, where he has become very successful.

Another blogger who has published an e-Book is Amit Agarwal of labnol.org.He has authored the e-book - The 101 Most Useful Websites.

So these are the different ways in which a Blogger can make money online, this resource is the only thing you will need to make money online as a Blogger or a website owner, if you have any ideas to improve this article, please let us know.

Make Money Online Without Spending a Dime

One of the things many people do not seem to realize when they are beginning their online journey is the fact that you do not have to spend a dime in order to make a nice, steady income. While there are plenty of companies out there that promise to offer you amazing benefits and special offers, many people go about making plenty of money for themselves; at no cost to them.

You Don't Have To Spend Money First
Don't get me wrong, I am not saying there aren't companies out there that can offer you great help along the way; but I prefer to go about getting things done for free. Why spend your hard earned cash on something that you can get without the need to spend a single penny out of pocket? My goal with this post is to save you as much money as possible and help you get on the right track to living a successful and fulfilling life as well as enjoying what you do all the while. How many people out there love their job? Not many; and we are here to change that!

Why Online Work Is Great
One of the most exciting things about working online is the fact that you get to select your own hours(This is one of the reasons why Pro Bloggers are their own bosses). You get complete control over your life. Never again will you have to worry about missing a family get-together or an important event. This means, you are going to have a chance to live the life you've always dreamed about. When working from home, one can literally go anywhere and do anything because your life no longer has to revolve around your work but your work can then revolve around your life. All you have to do is simply pack up your laptop and go.

Things You Can Do Online
It doesn't matter if you want to work full-time, or you want to work part-time, I am sure that you are going to be extremely happy in whatever it is you decide to do. Some of the easiest things you can do as an online worker is to write for forums, blogs or write articles. Of course, there are also a lot of other things that can make you money online. These may include, but are definitely not limited to: website design, selling eBooks, or even trading links.

Become An Online Writer
If you are interested in writing jobs, you may want to check out Digital Point Forums, Elance and Postloop. These are just a few sites that I think you may find helpful. These are a wonderful starting point and you can meet some amazing people and really branch out your business as much or as little as you please.

Web / Logo / Banner Designer
If you are a designer, then there are virtually an unlimited amount of opportunities for you online. You can participate in many design contests and find work via online forums and freelance websites.

Programming
Most freelancing sites started around programming and scripting. There are thousands of companies and individuals looking to get their code fixed or to add a new feature to their existing website. With the right skills, you can easily make a steady income online.

Mechanical Turk
I really like Amazon's mechanical turk service and I am surprised to see that many blogs and ebooks about making money online pay no attention to this incredible service. You can take up tasks that require a bit of analysis or English skills and still get paid better than many jobs out there today.

For Those With No Special Skills
Frankly, it doesn't take special skills to do well on the internet. Just check out some of the featured gigs on Fiverr and you will realize that you can create your own niche and make a good amount of money doing just about anything.

The internet is such a vast place and the options are endless. All you need to do is take one day at a time, set goals for yourself and you'll be well on your way in no time. Meeting others who are self-employed can be extremely helpful as well; as they can give you one on one advice. The internet makes the world so small!

Adsense Approval Tip 2: A Good site design and a clean site design is also very important if you are hoping to get Approved By Google Adsense, make sure that your website template looks professional and there are no stray links or pop-up ads etc.If your site looks good, you have a better chance at getting Approved By Google Adsense.

How To Get Approved By Google Adsense
Adsense Approval Tip 3: Domain Age, In India and Pakistan and countries such as these, Google Adsense has set a rule that the new sites which are less then six months of age will not be approved into the Adsense Program.But this is not very strictly followed, as long as you have a good design and original content, you will get approved by Approved By Google Adsense.

Adsense Approval Tip 4: Traffic to your site is not that great a measuring stick when it comes to getting approved by Approved By Google Adsense, it is necessary that you have at-least a trickle of traffic targeted towards your blog or website, but surely you do not need to have millions of page views a month.So do not worry much about the amount of traffic you are getting before applying to Google Adsense.

Adsense Approval Tip 5: Provide proper information while applying to Adsense, such as your Address, your full name and website URL.If you put in wrong information or give the URL of some other persons website hoping to get approved by Adsense, then you may not get approved at all.So make sure your account info is in place properly.

Adsense Approval Tip 6: Your website or Blog must have at-least around 15 pages of unique content or it probably will not be approved by Google Adsense.Google Adsense never accepts single page websites or websites that have only few pages of small content.

Adsense Approval Tip 7: Make sure that your Blog or website has a lot of written content, Google Adsense loves written content.Make sure that your website is not just filled with Stock Photos or YouTube Videos.

Google Surveys is a pretty simple concept where companies will submit their surveys to Google and through various publishers, the companies can get responses about their new products or services, which would help them to serve better.

The company creating the survey will pay Google $0.10 per response (for a general survey) or $0.50 per response for a demographically targeted survey (like when they want to target residents of New York who are in the 18-24 age group).As you can see demographically targeted surveys can fetch you more, so if you have a good micro traffic site, then you can make bundles of cash with Google Surveys.

Publishers can Register here for Google Surveys.

Google Surveys follows a similar selection and execution pattern as Google Adsense.
