For each item check out the auction activity in order to have some keyword ideas and a sense of the dollar value.

Create a list of keyword(select only that have 20.000 competing pages or less) and copy/paste into lens inspector, in order to find available Squidoo Lenses and HubPages Keyword to create a Hub or lens.

How To Split Test To Increase Your Conversion

Some time ago I talked readers about how to make a diagnosis when Adsense income is down. Ad Design have a significant impact upon the earnings of your Adsense ads and is certainly One of possible cause. In my old article I also mentioned that one of the better way to check out which ad design is works best for your blog is to run a split testing campaign.

If you want direct answers on how to do this, here an article on how to make easy to keep track of your Ad Design. Don’t worry. The process is enough simply to set up.

What Is Split Testing?

This system also called A/B testing allows you to compare two different version of an Adsense ad unit on your blog, so that you can check which one works best. To starting with the split testing all you need to have is two versions of the ad for each visitor. For example one ad unit of 250×250 and one ad unit of 300×250.

If you want to get enough samples, you should do some test on a large number of visitors in order to get more conclusions about which ad design works best in that particular ad position. In brief, you’ll need create two channels inside your Adsense account so that you can track the results and then add a piece of code around the Adsense code and put it where you want it to show.

Here’s how to incorporate the code into your blog:

1) Go into your Adsense account and then create two different custom channels called something like “test A” and “test B

2) Create two different ad units with identical sized formats but set two different color palettes. Once got the Adsense codes use them in the next step.

3) The following code below allows you to see the two different color palettes rotating on your blog. Ok, tak the codes generated first and put the two ad units codes within the bolded lines.

<script type=”text/javascript”>
    var random_number = Math.random();
    if (random_number < .5){
        //your first ad unit code goes here
    } else {
        //your second ad unit code goes here
    }
</script>
<script type=”text/javascript”     src=”http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js”></script>

4) Put the intere code into your blog’s template(within index.php, single.php, etc) and  positiones where you want it to show.

With the above code you should now see the two different color palettes rotating on your blog. You can choose to set the split test to 50/50 or another 60/50, or 70/50 and so on in order that only a small number of your readers see the new ad unit. All you need to do is to set the “.5″ to another number. For example .8 would show one ad 80% of the time.

Now you can be sure to get a lot of information from the script, and know which one is performing best. Give it a day or two to run before you make too many changes as it can take a little while to get the ad having shown enough times to draw any solid conclusions. Once you find which of two ad units works best, compare your best ad design against other to see if you can find one to better it.

However, this new way is called “Twittad“. Launched last week, TwittAd is an online ad network designed to give Twitter users and advertisers the opportunity to make cash online through Twitter platform in order to promoting products or website on a Twitter user profile.

Ian Schafer, the CEO of interactive agency Deep Focus, is known because says that has sold his Twitter background as advertising space for $1,082.01.

twittad

TwittAd fits inside any Twitter profile. User earn money each time someone buy a TwittAd in their profile pages of Twitter account. Ad prices range from $1 for 7days to $50 for 3 months. One of the downside is that ad is a background image. In my view, this means that any results can not be measured because the ad isn’t clickable.

Twitad Step By Step

You probably want to get started immediately, so here are the exact steps needed to successfully set up Twittad for user and advertisers. They are fairly simples.

User

  1. When you sign up for Twittad you must set up your Twitter account. All you need to do is to enter your username and password.

  3. Wait for advertiser to purchase.
  4. Accept or Deny the proposed ad within 24 hours of purchase.
  5. If you accept, upload ad to the design section on your Twitter account.
  6. Notify that the ad has been placed.

You will get paid every time hour you sell the ad. Once the advertisers ad expires the money is released into your Real account balance.

Advertisers

  1. Click “Buy Now” to purchase a Twitter user’s background for ad placement.
  2. The next step is to upload a default ad within 24 hours.
  3. Wait for approval by Twitter user. If user accepts, than pay Twittad via Paypal. If user removes your ad before your time expires, then you will receive credit back from Twittad for time your ad was not served.

You pay Twittad 5% service fee an the total purchase price.

Conclusion

In my view, Twittad isn’t a ready made answer for who hopes to make money from Twitter. I don’t see any value and advantage on put an image background that can not be clickable and misurable. What do you think?

Some month ago, Google announced a beta launch for an online ad manager that allowed publishers to manage their own ad units. After the test prove positive, Google has launched Ad Manager to anyone who wants to use it.

What Is Google Ad Manager?

Google Ad Manager is a hosted ad management solution designed to sell, and track all of the performance of ad units sold.

If you have already an AdSense account all you need to do is to sign up for Google Ad Manager here. If you have not an AdSense account - you will need to sign up for a Google AdSense account first. The best thing about the Google Ad Manger is the cost - it’s absolutely free. As I said before, all you need to do is to have a Google Account, and you can use Google Ad Manager.

Some of the main features of Ad Manager includes:

  • Inventory Management

With these simple steps suggested here, you can start taking more proactive action to set up your banner ads base on the advertisers you want to display.

How To Get Started with Google Ad Manager

Go to Google Ad Manager, then click on “Inventory”, and you come to the “Ad Slots” section.
Now, all you need to do is to add a new “new ad slot” for each ad position. You may work with one, two, four, six, or more ad slot, but for this tutorial, I only need of four ad slots to publish.

google ad manager

Click on the “New Ad Slot” link at the top. I will create four new ad slots, and named them 125Adslot1, 125Adslot2, 125Adslot3, and 125Adslot4, respectively. I’ve also included one brief description for each Ad slot: “The first ad slot 125×125 at the top right bar on the3dtechnologies”, “The second Ad slot 125×125…..” and so no. Now your ad slot was set up.

Create An Ad Placement

Now, you need that all your advertisers see the ad slot 1 position, in order to getting the top position. Once come to the Ad Placements section, click on “Placements” under the “Inventory” tab. You should see a screen that looks somewhat like this:

Now click on “New Placement” and give it a name. I have named my Ad Placement, “the3dtechnologies 125 Left Top Zone.” I also added a brief description on the description box, “The Ads on the right top bae on The3dtechnologies”

Create Orders

Creating your banner ads is the next step, in order to be visible on your site. Go to create “Orders.” In your “Orders” section,  click on the Orders tab on the left of “Inventory.” You should see a screen that looks somewhat like this:

I named the Order, “Text Link Ads The3dtechnologies”, give it an external ID(tlat1, and set the “flight dates.” An important thing to set up is the Flight dates, becouse say you when you want to see your banner ads. I am setting the end date for illimitate while the billable party in this case is the advertiser.

The next step is to adding the ad into your blog. Go on “Ad Slots” and click on the link “Generate Sample HTML,” on the right. Click “add” next to each of the ads you added, in my case, the four ads.

As I said in my recent article, Adsense is one of the most pay per click program to monetize your blog, and has become practically ubiquitous on the Internet.

But there are times when it is worth considering alternatives.

Affiliate programs are also ideal for blogs. Affiliate program allow to create a business relationship between the merchant of a product or service and a website owner who promotes the merchant’s offerings. Affiliates(website owner) earns a commission from the program owner for each referral that results, simply by putting an affiliate banners on their own website.

This is not the first time I have talked about these different forms of revenue but this time I also decided to give you some advice on how choose the right affiliate program. I’ve just put together 8 tips for anyone that are approaching to Affiliate Programs for the first time in order to decide which are an excellent program from an average one.

There are many ways to choose an affiliate program, Below I’ve summarized what I will tell you after in detail:

  1. Choose a reputable product in a good market
  2. Look for affiliate programs relate to your audience
  3. Quality
  4. Commission
  5. Pay structure would be the most clear
  6. Topic
  7. Affiliate Program Directories

1. Choose a reputable product in a good market - If you are new to ecommerce, one thing you must know is that there are literally thousands of different affiliate programs out there trying to sell anything. One of the great mistake many affiliate do is that they decide to use the same product as everybody else, instead to take advantage from the bandwagon. In this case, you are at a statistical disadvantage that can not do generating meaningful revenue. Take advantage from affiliate programs that offer unique products in a ripe market.

2. Look for affiliate programs relate to your audience - For instance: If you’re running a site about credit card, you should look for credit card affiliate programs(credit card student, business credit card and so on).

3. Quality - When deciding what affiliate programs to pick you need to be extremely careful. You need to find programs that are constantly expanding their product offerings. This approach is good for two reasons: First will improve your revenue expansion. Second, your customers will keep coming back to see what’s new. Seek for programs that are dynamic and have a growth potential.

4. Commission - When I’m on the lookout for an affiliate program, the first thing I look for is the payout. Commission Junction and Pepperjamnetwork are two of the best affiliate marketing programs in the industry with ton of products. An adequate commission rate is a great way if you want get more revenue with less traffic. In my view I consider that 15% is not decent while I think that You should look for programs that go for commissions that are around 25% and higher per product.

5. Pay structure would be the most clear - You need to understand the terms and conditions that are bundled with the affiliate program. Any serious affiliate program should clarify how many you will receive for your effort. Unfortunatly, yet there are some programs that no present clear pay rates. Unless the merchant spells out exactly what you will receive for your efforts, avoid them.

6. Topic - When selecting an affiliate program to use on your blog, make sure to choose affiliate programs relating to the main topic of your web site. Ask questions first before you join an affiliate program.  What is my topic? What do people come to my blog looking for? What types of products my readers want to buying?

7. Affiliate Programs Directories- If you want to jump right away into testing and become an affiliate partner, below I’ve put what I consider the best affiliates programs in the industry:

8. Reader Location - If you have a web site with a lot of traffic from different locations, you should try to figure out as much you can about the locality of your readers.

Check up if your traffic come from a particular location. For instance - The problem of Amazon is that they do not ship electronics internationally. In this case would better find a more localized affiliate program if you have a gadget site with a large readership from Australia.
