Make Money Online With OZ

HTML clipboardHello Dear Friends,

Since its already 2009 I thought to make some changes on this blog as I wasn’t sure about the current layout and some other stuff. I added some interesting stuff which I strongly believe improved how my blog looks and actually functions. You can read all of changes (actually six ones) below

1. Twitter
   I have heard promising things about Twitter and I thought I could give it a go. You can follow my by clicking on the bird on the left. It seems really kind right?
2. Bigger RSS Icon
   I found this rss icon and it was perfectly matching up my blog design and I thought I could use it, of course I believe it will increase my RSS Subscription Readers (If you haven’t subscribed yet, try it out now)
3. Email Subscription
   Alright I believe one of the most important things of every blogger is their email subscription list. I added a new design for the “Subscribe” button, hope it will convert much better now
4. Sociable
   Sociable is a nice little plugin which lets you automatically add links to your favorite bookmarking site. You can check them under every single post. If you like my articles, you can use them for sure. In this way I will understand that you like my articles and will keep me motivated to write more and more
5. Recommended Moneymakers
   If you see at the bottom-left, you will see some logos of different Affiliate Companies. I thought it was much better adding graphical banners rather than dull text
6. Short About Me
   At the bottom, on the right side you can see a picture of mine (taken before 4 days) and some text which describes me and what I do online. To read all my autobiography you can click on About Me

So this was all about my changes. If you think your blog needs some changes and improvements you better start them doing right now as its the proper time

Thanks for your attention

I haven’t written any post for more than one week and I do apologize. I have had some offline issues which I’m still trying to figure out. This post is more focused on a lesson of life rather than making some cash or increasing your pagerank.

There is a saying in Albanian language

“And if you fall 99 times, you will still stand once”

Alright many of you might be asking what’s this is all about? I have been reading different inspirational blogs which have been able to provide good information and always shared secrets with their readers. One of those guys is Paul Bourque. He has been a great affiliate marketer making hundreds of thousands each month. He was a true inspiration for many new entrepreneurs or affiliate marketers who wanted to start making money online. Many entrepreneurs wanted to be like him but what has happened lastly has really made me think twice, that’s why I wrote this post.

Paul is that kind of guy who knows what he talks about, never says it’s white when it’s actually blue and always willing to give support. He also used to make a lot of money online (more than many might make in a year). He also had a nice girlfriend which he really loved. So far it seems like a fairy tale, something like utopia. The problems started when he broke off with his girlfriend. Breaking off from someone who means the world to you, is never easy. I imagine breaking off from my girlfriend … I couldn’t swallow it but hey, it’s not the end of the world. You are neither the first nor the last. His earnings have decreased drastically (last month he made approx $180 profit) so where is the super duper affiliate we were used to see all the time? Where are all those huge earnings, those inspiring posts?

Many want to be on your footsteps Paul but this isn’t the proper way. You shouldn’t be pessimistic. This mood won’t help you get better. It’s time to move, bigger projects, new life. Show to your ex-girlfriend that she was wrong, that she had a great boyfriend once but she lost it and she will never ever have a better one. This can only be achieved by working hard and getting again those huge commissions.

Of course I don’t know the causes of the break off but I see Paul’s behavior and I can say that he is suffering a lot. Take this post as an indicator which guides you to move on and never turn back the time. Don’t let your past influence your future.

To all the ones which might have been in a similar situation. You should know what to do and how to react, it’s not easy but again I repeat it, that’s life. We are just temporal passengers in this world . . .
Thanks for your attention

We all want to have successful blogs. Success is different for every single blogger. Someone might be successful if he has 10000 readers, another one might be successful if he earns $1000. But all of us must follow some phases to make the blog a real success.

What Order Am I talking about !?

Im clearly talking about Content , Traffic & Monetization phases. These are the most important phases every blog undergoes and we must pay attention and work hard on each of them. Let me explain them one by one

We all know unique content is king! Having a daily updated blog with useful information for our readers is much better than having a once per week updated blog with copied articles! I believe writing is a skill that not many of us have it (I think i don’t have it too) but when you write for something you know and you love, you seem like a professional writer to the world due to the information you share with everyone. Let’s take an example of my personal blog here. I have started it on 11 October and I have been writing almost everyday because I have to provide firstly useful content then work for the traffic. Imagine if I would only had 2 posts and start massively advertising my blog, its true that many people would visit my blog but they wouldn’t return back as they would see an empty blog without enough resources.So I strongly recommend you to work firstly hard writing unique content then focus on how to generate traffic for your blog

There are many ways on how to drive traffic on your sites hence its not a problem at all as of course traffic will increase time after time. What really counts is the content at the point where you have started to advertise your site. Make sure you have a well-established blog with useful information which will take your readers at least a week to read all your articles! By having enough content you can generate easier traffic from different sources. For example I was posting on some webmaster forums and whenever someone was asking a question about something I had blogged, I was posting my blog post link and many interested visitors were reading the article. Again I repeat marketing of your blog must be done AFTER you have reached a minimum of 25 unique articles!

We all know that by having unique content and traffic, Monetization is the easiest thing to do. Let’s consider you have a blog with 100 unique articles and more than 500 unique visitors per day. This means your posts are seen more than 500 times a day so adding some Adsense & Affiliate products will generate you some nice income (based on your traffic and content) I’m against monetization when you only have 2-3 articles and you start adding millions of advertisements! Of course you wont earn anything or even if you earn, you wont be satisfied and you will stop posting on your blog!

So this post will help many bloggers to achieve their goals by following a simple order which I’m quite sure will pay off at the end of the long run. Don’t forget adding firstly unique content , then marketing what you have written and last but not least , making some decent cash!

Thanks for your time

We all know the importance of every single visitor in our blog. There are many sites out there which have 100 uniques per day but those members are not returning anymore, perhaps they found your site once and they don’t remember it anymore. There are some simple steps which you can use to build a loyal readership base which will come day after day to read all your articles

Many bloggers are posting on their blogs for the sake of money or just reviewing other products which I find really odd and boring. This is the proper way to lose many members! Believe me nobody wants “Learn How To Make $1000 in a day” where the truth is YOU are the only one making money by affiliates. So I strongly repeat, write for your readers and make them feel comfortable while they read your articles.

Its better getting one loyal member than getting one dollar

Specific blogs in different niches (eg make money online) are sometimes posting senseless articles about health or any other high-paying product. This happens because blog owners love to get money and we all know that reviewing a health product can generate between $50-$100 dollars. I believe readers won’t even care what you have written! If you don’t care about your readers why should they come at you? Why should they read your blog? In order to get many returning visitors, you can either create a page like I did (My Next Blog Post) where I get emails about which topic to blog or you can use any other method

Another way I have been using to get loyal readers is a good online chain between you and your reader. If you see someone is commenting on almost all your posts, its a good thing to visit his blog , comment on some of his posts and even thank him for reading your blog. In this way your readers will feel pretty good as you are respecting their work and them and this makes all of us happyHope you have found something useful on this post!
