Hey guys. From the mails I get on a daily basis, the two basic things that most people starting off are interested in is (a) Basic money makers that can be set in place, perhaps for seed capital and (b) Cost effective or free traffic methods. Having been at this for five years now I can appreciate those questions, even though I would tend to encourage a longer term view and a list, a business model etc. However, we all began at our beginnings so for the next few weeks I am going to post on basic money makers and traffic methods solely, plus answer any questions that arise. Before I do I just want to preface with something, I have built up a consistent high five figure a month business over the last few years, meaning I don’t have to reinvent the wheel every month, I say this in no way as boasting or being big headed in any fashion, my point is that a long term business and asset should be the goal in IM, built on a solid foundation. For me that’s a list because whatever the trends of the web and whatever mood the big G wakes up in and decides to smack us with today, a list endures. So, my point is by all means use the stuff I am going to post up over the next few weeks but once you have a recurring consistency to your cash flow, you need to think longer term. Ok, lecture over lol. Here is a method I used to use very successfully. If anyone wishes to update or contribute, I would welcome it. More tomorrow. Ezine Articles/Stumbleupon/ Mturk We want to ensure our article gets into the “top 15 most viewed articles†for whatever category we are submitting to. Getting the article into that list, will ensure a lot more views, and lots more SEO link juice for the article, so that, not only will more people read it from Ezine directly, but it will climb the organic search engine listings at a much faster rate. Like all things IM, easy when you know how, so here it is: 1. First, submit the article and get it published. 2. Then view your article on Ezine, and look down to where it says “Most Viewed EzineArticles in (whatever your category was) Category (90 Days)â€. 3. Click on the last article in that list (#15) and view it, taking note of how many times it’s been viewed. That information down at the bottom, and is typically 100-200 views. 4. Go to www.mturk.com 5. Set up HITS, well explained on that site itself, for people to view and vote (4-5 stars) on your article. 6. Set the number of HITS to be 5-10 more than that article #15 was viewed and pay $.05 each for them. Basically with HITS, you are paying people $.05 to just view and rate your article. In simple terms, for $5-10, you can hugely increase the effectiveness of just one article by getting a higher listing in Google and consequently getting $100’s , if not $1000’s worth of clicks over time. Go and do it.
