BLOG YOUR WAY TO THE BANK

When thinking about how to make money online you should seriously consider blogging. It is one of the easiest means of making an honest living online. If you are not familiar with blogging or how it works, let me give you an insight. Blogging is basically a website which allows you to update information regularly and easily. You don't really need to be a computer guru to blog, all you need is to know how to type. You can blog about anything you know about. Something you could update and refresh on regular basis. If you write interesting topics on your blog you will attract and retain a lot of readers and the more people that visits your blog, the more chances of making money for you. One of the ways to make money from your blog is to insert Google Adsense on it, which if any of the people that visits your site clicks, you make money. Another way to monetize your blog is to run Affiliate program on it as well. For example, if you are writing about how to lose weight in your blog, you can join affiliate programs on weight loss and insert the banner in your blog, once your readers clicks on the banner, they will be taken to the products site, any of them that buys, your commission will be credited in your account. For a sample of such a blog, see http://loseweightcool.blogspot.com. For you to make reasonable amount from running affiliate programs in your blog, you need to be collecting the email addresses of your blog visitors, with the use of an Autoresponder. You can sign up with two very good Autoresponder services online e.g. www.Aweber.com, www.Getreponse.com. By the time you have gotten enough email addresses, you can introduce another product to them by email. One of the secrets of becoming a millionaire through blogging is to set up multiple blogs and monetize all of them. Another secret is to build up a high number of visitors to your blogs. Once you are able to do this, companies and websites will be paying a big amount of money on a constant basis for you to do a review of their products or services in your blog. One guy that have been making millions through this system is John Crow, www.johncrow.com. There are many blogging platforms you can use to launch your blog. You can use www.blogger.com, which is free, you can also use www.wordpress.com which is more preferable and advanced, though you have to spend some little money here to get your domain name and a hosting account if you want to monetize the blog. Download and read this ebook WordPress blogger ebook written by Caroline MiddleBrook. Very fantastic book on how you can install WordPress blog in your cpanel account and set up Google Adsense using Adsense-ready themes. I started with www.blogger.com. I own many blogs already in www.blogger.com but WordPress is highly recommended. This is because WordPress has many themes and plugins which allow its functionality, usefulness and control to be extended. You can sell digital and downloadable products such as ebooks and software in a WordPress blog. These products are called intangibles. They sell faster than other products. There is a plugin that allows you to have a store inside the blog where you display your products. Bringing visitors to your blog is one of the most important ways to succeed in your blogging business. There are many ways to get visitors to visit your blog and you have to combine many of them to have good result. Some of the tricks I will enumerate down here.

        1. You can write articles and submit to article sites, forums and leave a backlink to your site or blog; leave your blog address as your signature in forum.

       2. You can go to Yahoo Messenger, MSN Messenger, select the chat group where your blog is focused on and drop the address of your blog and the products your are marketing. Many members of the chat group will rush to your blog if you are able to convince them. Try thismethod. It works very well!

CASHOUT ON BULK SMS MARKETING

With the advent of Global System for Mobile Telecommunications in some years back introduced by Obasanjo Administration and the attendant growth in the population of mobile phone subscriber, GSM sms or text has become a very heritage tool or medium to disseminate information and message fast and easily to reach targeted audience irrespective of location.

It is no longer news that Commercial banks, suppliers, manufacturing firms, event organizers and even everyone uses GSM texts or sms to send one message or the other to customers, loved ones and to invite guests to parties, occasions, weddings etc. Corporate as well as public institutions rely on this medium to reach out targeted customers. I have twice used this medium to reach out to targeted customers nationwide. It is cheaper than the sms provided by major GSM operators. Web sms cost as low as N5, N4, N3 or even N2 compared to the ones provided by GSM telecom operators which usually fall in the range of N5,N10, N15 or even up to N22 depending on the word length of the message. One can leverage on the advantages of this new medium of marketing or advertising to make a lot of money by providing this service to big corporations like Banks, Insurance brokers, manufacturing firms, etc. One can register as a Reseller sms dealer abroad at highly subsidized rates and sell to customers here in Nigeria at cheaper rates of N3, N4 or N5 depending on the world length irrespective of the network involved. This is preferable and more economical to the ones provided by major telecom operators both GSM and CDMA.

NB: One can gain a big market by displacing the already existing providers by charging at a lower rate.

See an example of Bulk SMS Company in Nigeria below.

You can sign up as a Reseller dealer with any of the following firms abroad.
