Business networking

More and more business owners are turning to online business networking sites such as Schmoozii and LinkedIn to help them with business networking. Instead of attending crowded business meetings and tip club meetings, people can use online business networking sites to post details about their businesses or professional careers. Online business networking sites are great tools, especially for people who shy away from attending networking events due to nervousness. You can spend time in the comfort of your own home posting information and collecting contact information from other professionals instead of dressing up in a suit and paying money to attend a meeting. Follow these tips for business networking online and you will be able to take advantage of the opportunity.

Keep it Professional

Keep your online business networking profile professional. It is fine to include information about your marital status or the number of children you have, but stay away from posting questionable material, using profanity, and including other information that could hurt your reputation.

Add Contact Information

Make it easy for people to contact you if they have an opportunity that matches your interests. Business networking online should make it easier for you to make contacts, not more difficult. Include your e-mail address if you do not want to give out your phone number or mailing address. This will help you stay safe.

Explain Your Interests

Many business networking sites allow you to indicate your interests. For some, it is meeting potential business partners. For others, it is meeting up with people they used to work with. If you do not want unsolicited business pitches, say so in your profile settings.

Using online business networking can help you take advantage of untapped business opportunities and really grow your career.

Easier ways to earn money for teens!

If you're even remotely similar to me when I am a teen you want money for anything and everything new, especially during summer holidays. You know how it is, new cell phones come out, the next best gaming console is released, new games, new music, clothes, saving for a car, etc. but you don't just want it - you want it now. Don't feel bad I was the same way; to an extent nothing has changed - I still want that 65" Sharp Aquos LCD HDTV baby. I'm sitting here looking at a wall of 3 LCD monitors - what does that tell you?

Literally anyone can make money doing Internet marketing. As a teen all that is required to receive the money you earn is that you have a bank account.

So the first step is joining an affiliate network - oh yeah I didn't mention that yet, my bad. The most common form of Internet marketing is affiliate marketing; it's also the easiest to get into, that's what you should be looking into first. Affiliate marketing is when you sell other people's products for a commission; all that is required is a website, in some cases you don't even need that. Sounds like a sexy deal right? Hold on to your hat cowboy we're just getting started.

The next thing you need to decide is what product you want to promote/sell - actually the first choice should be what kind of product, physical or digital/informational? Physical products = you know, stuff you can hold. Digital = e-books, videos, software, access to membership sites, etc. I've personally had more success with informational products but some people make a living doing affiliate marketing with physical products. Once you figure that business out THEN you decide what product; I got ahead of myself for a second there.

Affiliate marketing is rather easy work once you get used to it - the first month will be hell I'm sure. You'll go from frustrated to happy to throwing your cat across the room in zero to sixty. As you getting going and everything starts to click you're in business baby, you'll be making a couple hundred a month - then it'll snowball to $500 and continue to grow as long as YOU continue to put in a solid effort. If you're having trouble making sales you may want to consider buying an e-book or two that will explain exactly how to do it - taking a shot in the dark is no fun at all..

But of course, with the versatility the internet offers, there are many ways you could find that could help optimize the potential of your site or business by generating traffic.

While there are ways to jumpstart your traffic flow, many sites don’t have the resources that others have to generate more traffic for your site. Well, you don’t have to spend a cent; all you need is the proper mindset and a lot of eagerness. You also must have the drive and perseverance to do hard work and research to generate more traffic for your site.

How sweet it is to have more traffic for your site without spending a single cent. Now it’s a sure thing that many sites have articles that offer tips and guidelines in how to generate traffic using for free. Because it is possible, you don’t need to speed a single cent, it may take time. You get better chances by paying for your advertisements, but at least you get a fighting chance with some of these free methods I’m about to tell you.

1) Firstly, take advantage of online forums and online communities. The great thing about forums and online communities is that you can target a certain group that fits the certain demographic that you are looking for. You can discuss about lots of things about the niche that you represent or offer. Another great advantage is that you know what you are getting into and you will be prepared.

With online communities and forums you can build a reputation for your company. Show them what you are made of and wow them with your range of expertise about the subject, with that you can build a reputation and build trust with the people in your expertise and knowledge.

2) Make use of newsletters. Provide people with a catalog of your products and interesting and entertaining articles. If you make it really interesting and entertaining, more people will sign up for your newsletter and recommend it to other people. The more people who signs up for your newsletter, the more people there will be that will go to your site, thus increasing your traffic.

3) Another great idea is trading links with other sites. You don’t have to spend a cent. All you have to do is reach an agreement with another webmaster. With exchanging links, the efforts both sites do will benefit both sites. Every traffic that goes to the site could potentially click on the link of your site and visit your site as well. This works well especially when both sites feature the same niche. However, do note who you are exchanging links with. There are sites out there which are blacklisted and will drag down your Google Pagerank.

4) Write articles that could pique the attention of people that have interest in your product. Try writing articles that will provide tips and guides to other aficionados. Writing articles that provide good service and knowledge to other people would provide the necessary mileage to your traffic flow needs.

5) Many sites offer free submission and posting of your articles. When people find interest in your articles they have a good chance of following the track by finding out where the article originated. Include a link or a brief description of your company with the article and there’s a great probability that they will go to your site.

6) Write good content for your site. Many search engines track down the keywords and keyword phrases your site uses and how they are used. It is not a requirement that a content should be done by a professional content writer. You could do your on but you have to make content for your site that is entertaining as well as informational. It should provide certain requirements as well as great quality.
Generally, internet users use search engines to find what they are looking for. Search engines in return use keyword searching in aiding their search results. With the right keywords, you could get high rankings in search engine results without the costs.

All of these methods and more will drive more traffic to your site for free. All it takes is a bit of effort. Learn all you can about the methods depicted here and you will soon have a site with a great traffic flow without the usual costs that come with it.

Google adsense click fraud

Many web site owners are getting their Google Adsense account terminated when they have done nothing wrong to deserve the punishment. Considering the money that they are earning from Adsense, they would certainly want to get back into it.

Click fraud is the act of clicking on ads for the purpose of costing the advertiser money. It is simply the same as paying out cash for false leads. Many people website owners are aware of this fraud and are sharing the same sentiment that this is the one big problem that Adsense is facing.

How do you prevent being involved in this fraud?

Majority of web hosts are offering access logs. Once this is offered to you, it is necessary that you hand it over to Google as well. This allows them to look for any suspicious activity on your site. Problems like this are very serious and giving it to them is saying that you would want to help them in any way you can in solving the problem.

It can also help if you have a click monitoring software. If you do not have one yet, you should try and get one. There is absolutely no major factor preventing you from having one because most of this software is free.

As usual, all the information you have received should be turned over to Google. This is showing Google that you too are fighting against click frauds and is in no way a part of it.

Study your server logs and watch for any activity that seems suspicious. Report anything that you may find odd, may it big or small thing.

You may want to consider disabling ads for your own IP address and local geographic area. This will certainly prevent accidents and will not make Google mistake another user as you. You can do through a htaccess file. This will avoid Google mistaking as clicking on your own ads and be kicked out because of it.

Keep your Adsense off on pop ups and pop unders. Your ads should not be displayed on content sites that promote illegal activity or tampering of the legal rights of other people or business. Included in this are the content that is considered adult and gambling ones. If you think that you may be breaking this rule, immediately remove your content or Adsense from the web page.

Be truthful and confess up to Google about times when you might have clicked on your own as, whether accidentally or intentionally. Or the times when you have done something that is against the Terms of Service that they are implementing. Be honest about anything that you may have done that is wrong. Confessing is way better than Google learning about it eventually. It would mean eventual termination and no getting back what you have worked so hard for.

Do not tell your family or friends about Adsense on your website. Chances are they may start clicking on them to help you make money without you knowing it. They may be doing more harm to you than help by trying it in the first place.

Most pay per click networks have different measures in hand to protect website owners against click frauds. Other search engines can track more than 50 data points, IP address, browser’s information, user’s session info and pattern recognition. They also have “systems” available that detects fraud. Not to mention the specialized teams monitoring how things are going and helping advertisers stop click frauds.

Google offers suggestion on how to avoid click fraud. Using “negative keywords” can be used to keep your Adsense showing on products and services that are in no way related to yours. Adding tracking URLs to your links so you can track the traffic coming from Google.

Do not be caught in the Google click fraud. Be aware and be wary.

This format have the tendency to result in higher CTR (click-through rates). Why choose this format out of the many other formats you can use? Basically, the ads will look like normal web links, and people, being used to clicking on them, click these types of links. They may or may not know they are clicking on your Adsense but as long as there are clicks, then it will all be for your advantage.

2. Create a custom palette for your ads. Choose a color that will go well with the background of your site. If your site has a white background, try to use white as the color of your ad border and background. The idea to patterning the colors is to make the Adsense look like it is part of the web pages. Again, This may result in more clicks from people visiting your site.

3. Remove the Adsense from the bottom pages of your site and put them at the top. Do not try to hide your Adsense. Place them in places where people can see them easily. You will be amazed at how the difference between Adsense locations can affect your earnings.

4. Maintain links to relevant websites. If you think some sites are better off than the others, put your ads there and try to maintain and manage them.

These are some of the tips that have worked well for some who want to generate hundreds or even thousands on their websites. It is important to know that ads are displayed because it fits the interest of the people viewing them. So focusing on a specific topic should be your primary purpose because the ad displays will be especially targeted on a topic that your site is about.

Tips given by those who have boosted their earnings are just guidelines they want to share with others. If they have somehow worked wonders to some, maybe it can work wonders for you too.
