Promote Health Products To Make Money Online As an Affiliate

It's been a very lont time since I published a post last time. All these months, I was thinking out of the box. Besides adsense and similarly CPC based programs, I just wanted to try a super saturated industry of making money online. It's nothing other than Affiliate Internet Marketing.

I wanted to share the 2 key sources that helped me to know how internet marketing works.

• MattsMarketingBlog.com
• TheKeywordAcademy.com

Matt Carter is the real deal when it comes to affiliate marketing. Unlike other marketers, he discloses his own niche sites that earn more than $2000+ every month. That makes him really unique and loving among the beginners as well as experienced marketers world wide. Yesterday (March 3 2011), he launched the most awaited hands-on SEO + Affiliate Marketing training course for just 77$ one time fee. But the prices are expected to go high up with in the next 5 days.

I used his free resources like reports and blueprints which reveals the secrets of finding out hot and untapped niches that can make you a nice and quick income stream. It's more like "Set-it-up & Forget" type business model. 

For example, I used his free training videos to test out some hot niches. I collected a small list of different health products including pet supplies. It's not about what we promote, it's the potential that you have to consider. And that's what I decided right now.

Shorten Your URLs or Links

In this post, I want to discuss with you one of the most important tools to consider for bloggers, twitter users, etc. You might have heard about URL shortening tools which are free and simple to use. This system proved to be very effective over the past years. While posting articles, it's very natural that you have to include URLs or links for various purposes. These may be short or link.

Normally, the affiliate links, URLs of particular pages etc. seem to be very long and may frustrate the readers or visitors when the see them on the status bar of their browsers. The use of URL shortener comes here as it helps to make your link very precise irrespective of the length of your original link.

Two of my favorite URL shortening tools are Bit.ly and TinyURL. Currently, I use bit.ly shortener for posting links in my twitter account. Url shortening tools are very common and they are very simple to use.

Random Snippet

Read the complete review on Toshiba BDX3000 3D Blu-ray Player. It's really a very nice gadget. 

In the case of Bit.ly, what you have to do is just insert the link (the link you want to shorten) and just press the 'shorten' Button. Done. You can see the shortened URL just below your original URL. Now you can use this URL wherever you want to share you pages, affiliate links, etc. These tools are very effective in sharing web pages and articles in a large number of social networking and bookmarking sites.
For Example : This is the shortened URL of my blog's home page : bit.ly/anH2H

Adsense Click Frauds

Getting your blog or site approved by Adsense is a great fortune that I feel. Because I am one among the numerous bloggers and web masters who struggled to get approved by adsense. Now a days, Adsense approval is not an easy task especially if you are from one of the nations which are virtually marked by Google as very tough to get. I could see that I am from one of those nations - India.

Have you ever wondered why Google Adsense has now become strict than ever before? You might be thinking that's for protecting and serving the advertisers. But that's a minor reason. There lies a very solid and strong reason behind this situation.

Every adsense publisher including you and me, want to skyrocket our adsense earnings. Usually, bloggers spend most of their time and effort for this. But it is pathetic to note that the research of certain bloggers end up in a very cruicial practice and that is Click fraud. As the name suggests, it's the nasty way of clicking ones own ads to increase their adsense earnings. I have some questions to ask those who are engaged in this practice ?

First of all, what's the need for this dirty method? Don't you come know about the huge compliments waiting for honest adsense publishers? Don't you really want to make real money online? Didn't you read the success stories of at least one or two adsense publishers?

I was thinking since days why Google restricts some countries from getting easily approved. And I found out the solution last evening when I read and article enclosing the click fraud survey. The reason is that the countries restricted by Google are the ones with maximum number of adsense click frauds. I feel really angry reading this one.

See the picture above which shows the statistics of click frauds prevailing in certain countries as per the survey conducted.

I don't know what make these people do so even though they are well aware of Google's intelligence. I have nothing to say except

PLEASE DON'T CLICK ON YOUR OWN ADS.

Top Adsense Earners - Success Stories (Part 2)

I hope that you enjoyed my post labeled Top Adsense Earners that I presented in the previous month. Even after posting that article, I was curious to know about the success stories and more related articles about these top earners. As a part of my day in Google Reader, recently I browsed through the pages of an interesting article which tells the stories of the top adsense earners.

In this post, I want to tell more about Markus Frind (Plentyoffish.com) who actually receives up to 500 million page views per month. That means he earns a great income from the contextual ads placed on his site. The click through rate may also be probably higher compared to other sites. Because his earnings prove so.

Before reading the article, I thought that he would have some hundreds of employees to maintain his money making site. But I actually wondered when I came across the pages of the article that says that Markus Frind has only one staff and that is his girl friend. She helps to answer to the tons of emails from visitors, subscribers and his regular customers each day.

I have another interesting thing to tell you about this top adsense earner. That is, he is the man who coded and developed his site. He is the only man who maintains such a top adsense earning site without significant help from any other web masters. What you see in his site is all created, developed and maintained by him. He enjoys the same. That makes this man unique among other web masters and top adsense earners.
There's a lot to tell about his earnings. If you want to describe shortly, then I am glad to say that he earns 10,000 $ per day means 30,000 $ in just one month. If you want to know more about this personality, you can visit his wordpress blog. Yes, his own blog. You can search for it in Wordpress. Just browse the pages of his blog and you will find really interesting and inspiring stories that he explains through constant updates. You can even see the attached picture of a cheque showing an awesome amount that this man earned with in just months.

Note :- This post is not meant for inspire all the bloggers to earn and become a top adsense earner. But I just posted this one to make people know about the top adsense earners, their success stories, the earnings limit for an adsense account holder, the legitimate ways of earning through Adsense program, etc. This post may e inspirational to competitors of the current top adsense earners. Many of the bloggers are always curious regarding these things.

I hope that I can come up with more adsense success stories of top adsense earners and other famous personalities so that you can have a better knowledge about the top Adsense earners and their earning strategy which may inspire you to earn at least some hundred dollars legitimately even if you don't make millions and billions.
