Contextual Video Advertising: Amazon Launches Innovative Monetization Video Widget

Until now, one of the most known way people tried to make money from own video clips was by using YouTube Video Ads. Unfortunately, this service wasn’t available for anyone. Instead Amazon, recently launched a new video widgets tool that allows anyone to monetize with the own website. Anyone!

Now, who create an Amazon Associate account, is able to launch a cool-looking embeddable video player in which to include a selected specific Amazon products, and integrate it inside a video clip. You are given some degree of control over how you ads products and services to promote on your site will show

Amazon give the opportunity to decide whether or not to a specific product or service in line with what you we want. Amazon does a nice job in making it easy for anyone to review any product and get an affiliate commission as well.

What Is Amazon Video Widgets

[HTML]

Amazon Video Widgets is a tool that allows to publishers to earn referall by publishing their own video clip into their website. All you need to do is to select your product from the Amazon inventory and choose when you want it appear on the bottom of the video.

You can only upload videos created by you, Amazon do not allows to upload videos created by others. For instance, you can’t upload a Britney Spears video and put ads for music inside it.

Amazon offer a novel solution for video publishers looking to monetize their work and advertisers looking to precision target their marketing message.

How Does To Start

All you need to do is to sign up for an account which you can do by clicking in the join now button. Note that when you sign up, you’ll need to specify a web site or weblog that you plan incorporating Amazon Widget.

Before completing this review, I wanted to sign up for an account just to see what is all about. Once you have filled out any missing account details go on the build links/widget button place on the left sidebar.

Select to upload your video clip. Amazon allows you to use diversi video standard formats such as avi, flu, mov, mpg, and wmv. Maximum file size available is 100MB.

Once uploaded your video you can select the product you want that appear on your video by clicking on upload video.

This are the basic operation can be learned quite rapidly to take action immediately with Amazon Widget Video.

It’s the attention to detail that really make the difference with its competitors. The most attractive thing for me is the idea to give publisher the capacity to choose which ads putting inside the video. From a video publisher perspective, Amazon makes it relatively simple to get your video content online and making money from it.

Professional Blogging: How Deciding Between Short And Long Blog Posts

One of the main topics beaten to death by most blogger and social media experts, is how long a blog post should be. It’s rolled out in debate, since blogging become popular on the net. Below in bold a few easy tips to follow when you trying to decide how write blog posts, if long or short.


Image credit: Bert Palmer

1) Post Depends By Niche Websites. Many bloggers began their first blog with a niche in mind. But not too many people start this way because there are so many uncertainties. If you are serious about monetize I would recommend to focusing on one thing and become really good at it.

Focusing on a niche is important to know how long your blog posts will be because it determine what you should say to your users. For example if you wrote a blog about food, your post might just discuss about how to prepare some recipes, add a little description, no more, while if you wrote a blog about make money, there are many aspects to consider and your blog post can become longer.

My blog post tend to be long 600-800 words, I would recommend you if you want compete with thousand of blog out there.

2) Posting Frequency. Bloggers pour their energy into content and resource creation, writing frequently their post and giving all of it away for free. The frequency of posting should be determined on numerous factors and will vary from blog to blog and largely comes down to the goals and strategies behind the blog. An interesting post was published on Adesblog about this topic.

Seem that more frequently you post, the shorter your posts should be. This because visitors reader appreciate and visit a blog that post frequently but they not have always time to read the intere post if too long. If you are not to write every day, one thing you must do is let your readers know that.

3) Long Or Short Post. One Rule That Applies For Both The Ways. Writing is 10% inspiration and 90% perspiration. Hard work is the key to arrive both things.  A good blogger know how to start with a quick burst of creativity. My advice is that to find different things until you find what works for you. Once you found what you search and wrote even a sentence or two, all you have to do is keep writing and it will come normally.

The John video released is one of series of two videos of Traffic Secrets 2.0 course. Traffic Secrets 1.0 launched from several years ago has changed the way to build traffic, so I was quite interested to see what he has for us in the 2.0 version of his training.

Who Is John Reese

John Reese has earned over $500,000 USD from Google AdSense clicks in the past 12 months by building hundreds of niche content sites. This video shows as has increased his profits and traffic grew over the 12 month period. It’s impressive. So, convinced me to register for his second video of his Traffic Secrets 2.0 course.

The videos give 10 traffic tips that should be a valuable resource and starting point to find where traffic is.

These are the key trends to keep following if you are seeking to make more of your online publishing efforts.

To watching the second video all you need to do is to enter your email. So you can also receive the next upgrade, whatever the next part of the series, or new video will be launched.

Have you understood well? They pay you for each review you writes for them. This system it’s similar to “PayPerPost” program where any publisher will receive money for each post you write. In my opinion, if there is only one thing that lets things down with this offer for me, it is their low budget per review.

I’m an publisher, why should I want to create an account, with Pepperjam program?

Well, Pepperjam offers one of the best affiliate programs in the industry. According to a recent Marketing Sherpa article, Pepperjam Network is getting into the affiliate marketplace between top 5 major affiliate networks in the United States. The company has now increased of 17.7% their slice of market and continues to grow.

You can use PJN referral Program affiliate link and make additional money, as well. This is a the potential for a great viral promotion for Pepperjam Network.

One of the great benefits of posting about Pepperjam program is that you can use PJN refferal program affiliate link in order that if people really like your post, they will click on the affiliate links and make more money.

Pepperjam is a really good affiliate business model and I think for now you won’t find anothe program that does an so  great offer.
