Yaro is very particular about the way he runs his membership courses. He only admits a few people to his course and then closes it for the rest of the year. This time round he has made an exception and has opened the course again for a few days.

Since the time he released this course the last time, there are a lot of people who have made a fortune out of Membership Sites. I am one such online entrepreneur who is currently running 2 membership sites and is making a living online with them. I get a consistent income from these websites.

The objective of this post is not to harp on my successes and advertise my membership sites. Rather it is to inform you all that Yaro is again opening the doors to his course, Membership Site Mastermind. This could be your last chance to enroll for the course this year. You might be wondering, what’s the big deal! You can enroll the next time this opens, i.e. the next year. Yes, for sure you can, but by then you would be reading another success story, probably of one of your friends who enrolled and gained immense success out of his membership sites.

It’s your choice. If you want to sit on the fence, you can. But success comes to the ones who was courageous enough to take the decision to change their fortunes.

If you are ready, join Membership Site Mastermind today itself.

I never felt so!!

I was fascinated with the mini-site revolution and got into the internet marketing arena when I read a book on making money from advertisements – Google and Yahoo, being the two major networks.

Most of you might have started your internet journey this same way.

Let me ask you a few questions?

How did your journey on the internet go after you started? How much money did you earn from Google or, Yahoo ads? How many money making websites do you have as on date?

If answering these questions took more than 3 minutes of your time, then let me tell you that you are not making any money from your website. This is because if you were making any money, you would know the number of websites that you have and you will for sure have a dollar value to quote as you earning.

I too, did not earn a single penny for the first few months. But I was fairly good at HTML and knew how to build sites. I also was lucky enough to invest in a niche finder software called as Micro Niche Finder, which dug out a couple of niche markets for me. So I finally built about 15 odd websites and slapped a few advertisement codes on them and also linked them to a few affiliate product websites and in about 17 days I saw my first few dollars. Since that day I have 37 websites on the internet in addition to other affiliate marketing websites and blogs. These 37 websites generate close to $7,000 in advertisement income every month. This means each of these websites generate about $189.00 per month. (Not bad for me because since the day I have put these websites on the internet, I have not looked at them).

But creating these websites, sure took me about 3-4 days. It was boring, tiring, frustrating and lot of other ….ings. -:)

The last month I came across this script that was referred to me by my friend James. He said that this script generates instant video websites that are dynamic in nature and that I will not have to spend more than 10-15 minutes. I was excited. I straight away downloaded the script and read through the read me file.

The next 15 minutes saw me launch my first video website. You can check it out at http://www.anti-aging-secrets-videos.info.

It is precisely 36 days that I have launched the website and my income from this website for the month comes to about $211.83. Isn’t that better than the websites that I had created?

Such is the power of videos and the instant videos script.

You can check out and download the script here. The script costs only $20.00.

Do let me know your feedback about the script. Yo ucan contact me in case you face any problems.

Whenever a newbie internet marketer comes across a very successful blogger like Yaro Starak, Darren Rowse or, Carl Ocab and read their success stories, the primary instinct is to start a blog immediately on the same line as these successful bloggers. They buy a domain, get a hosting and install wordpress on it. Then they launch a blog on “Making money online blogging”.

Are you one such internet marketer, who started a blog on “making money online blogging”?

Are you frustrated at the poor results that your blog is showing and are not able to make a single cent out of your blog?

You are not on the wrong side of the road. There are millions other like you. In fact I too was like you. About 3 years back, I started a blog on “making money online blogging” and after 4 months discarded the entire blog because I was frustrated to the core as I was unable to match the competition of the more successful bloggers and I had zero visitors to my blog.

By this, I do not intend to say that you too should delete your blog, just because you are not getting enough visitors or, you are unable to match the competition. Rather what I wanted to say is that it is time that you started thinking and working differently, if you wish to succeed.

My blog here at DKSpeaks, is a “make money online” blog. But I knew that I will never be able to rank well for the term “make money blogging” or, “make money online blogging”. I knew I had to get into some kind of a niche in this market, if I am to rank in Google and get a bit of traffic. So I researched into this market with the help of my favorite niche keyword research tool – Micro Niche Finder, and I stumbled upon a very unique niche. It had a decent count of searches and there were very few results. I knew that this is my market. Today I rank the 5th for this niche on Google. (It is a business secret and hence I am not disclosing the details here. -:)

So what is it that takes to succeed in “make money online blogging” today? It is “Niche blogging”.

What is niche blogging?

Every market has a micro market in it. Let us consider the example of “Ringtones”. This is a market that Jeremy Schoemaker used to start off with his internet marketing business and is very competitive. When you research into this market you will come across other micro markets like – Cingular Ringtone, Sprint Rintones. Further you can find Cingular polyphonic rintones, Cingular trutones, Cingular MP3 ringtones. A bit more of research could lead you to markets like Cingular MP3 movie songs ringtones, Cingular MP3 Christmas songs rintones etc.

So this is what a niche is all about. When you start your blog, you will have to research enough to find a niche for yourself so that you have less competition and yet make a living out of the market.

How to succeed in Niche Blogging?

My friend Codrut Turcanu from Lazyblogging has an excellent resource to help you succeed in Niche Blogging. If you are determined to make money online blogging, then you should read his book on niche blogging – “Niche Blogging Profits”.

In this book he speaks about 7 secrets that he used to generate more than $35,000 from niche blogging. I got a chance to read his book and I decided that I would implement his techniques to one of my niche blogs in te career couselling and career development niche at BPODiary. In just one month, I was surprised to see that my visitor count increased by almost 215% and the revenue that I made from the blog was about $4,700 in comparison to a revenue of less than a $1,000 that I was making earlier.

Niche blogging is sure to help you succeed in making money online blogging. Check it out here.

P.S:- Get the book at a special discount if you order it today.

Don’t forget to post your comments on the ebook and the post.

Making money is easy. If you think making money is not easy, then you are at the wrong place. Because I believe that nothing is difficult. All that is required to look different and distinct is a bit of thought – thought at doing things differently.

I can see that frustration and anger on your face, because I know you might have seen quite a few of these teaching and preaching at a lot of other blogs. You might have also bought a few ebooks that promise that you will become a millionaire and yet you are fighting to find that first dollar drop into your PayPal account. So let me tell you about a very simple way of making some extra money. If you are wondering as to why I have boldened those words, it is not an SEO trick. Rather, it is to tell you that this will only be some extra money, not a full-time business, though a lot of people are making sustainable income ( This obviously includes me).

Making Money with Minisites :-

For people who do not know what “Minisites” are -

Mini-sites are small websites with a few pages, creating keeping in mind a particular niche with the intention of selling related products and services or, making money from advertisements.

I once heard somebody telling me that minisites are not for making money from advertisements. But, I do not agree to it. Minisites can take any form of money making channel.

Michael Rasmussen is a pioneer in “Making money with minisites“. There is a collection of tools that he has made available in case you wish to make money from minisites.

P.S. :- In case you order the package from the link above, I will give you an additional $15.00 in discounts. Write to me to know how.

Creating a handful of Minisites :-

Can one minisite make enough money for you? Of course, not. You will have to create a handful of such minisites, in case you wish to make a respectable income from it. Michael Rasmussen’s collection of tools helps you in creating many such minisites in a few minutes. I recommend it in case you wish to create such many minisites.

If you are good at HTML and don’t want to spend money, you can always create your websites using any HTML editor.

All that you need to keep in mind is that you have done your niche research well. This is because, the success of these sites depend upon how good the niche is. Minisites made for generic products will not fare well because of the competition. So the better a niche, the better the response you will get.

An alternative to minisites :-

There is no denying the fact that Adsense can help you make money, if you take the right approach. If the niche is good and you are able to generate enough traffic to your websites, you can make a decent income from the minisites that your have created. Just slap a few adsense codes in the “Red Hot” advertisement areas and you will be able to generate a few clicks and a few dollars.

But, you will need to create quite a few websites, if you wish to make decent money from these advertisements. All said and done, the question still remains – how will you create so many website and how will you write the content required for so many websites.

Here is a solution to this problem of yours – Instant Video Sites

What is Instant Video Sites?

This is a cool script that creates a minisites with videos on any topic that you choose. This script, on installation generates pages with videos (These videos are from Youtube) for the topic you have chosen. Select any niche topic and you will find that there are thousands of videos on Youtube. So you will never run out of content.

After installing the script, just put a few Adsense codes here and there and a few banners for the products that your want to promote. Just drive some traffic to these sites and then wait and watch as the dollars start rolling in.

Wondering, if that is so easy?

Yes, it indeed is. The script installation takes less than 4 minutes and your website will be up and running in about 15 minutes. And the best part is that you do not even have to know HTML or, anything.

Get the script here right now.

Frustration is creeping into the mind and you are wondering as to what is it that needs to be done so that you earn that first dollar from the internet marketing business. Is that you?

95% of all Internet Marketing journey ends in a disaster. Don’t panic at this statement. Your success is a coefficient of your choice. In this respect, I would want to quote a statement from one of my favorite movies – The fantastic four: the rise of the silver surfer.

Every situation in life has a choice. No situation has just one option. You always have two choices. Your success or, failure depends upon the choice that you make – right or, wrong.

So if you are frustrated and are wondering as to how to succeed in making money online, then here is the mantra.

• Choose a good mentor for yourself.
• Do the right things – (Read the 80-20 rule by Yaro Starak)
• Choose the right tools.
• Continue doing the right things even if there is no result. (Wondering, till when. Then read this post here)
• Tweak if necessary.
• Be persistent.

Internet Marketing businesses, especially, blogging has to be given some time till you start seeing results. Throughout my blog, you will see this advice, because that is how I am, where I am today.

What are the right tools to make money online? Are they free or, do you have to pay for them? There could be quite a few questions in your mind when you think about “choosing the right tools”.

The 3 most important and indispensable tools to make money online in an Internet Marketing business are as follows:

SEO Tools -
What are SEO tools and why do you need them? There is no debate to the fact that the most economic and the highest contributor to the traffic to your website is “Organic Traffic”. If you do not know what organic traffic is, then

Organic traffic is the traffic that comes from search engines, from people clicking on the search results that appear on the search engine results page for various keywords that people search for.

Let’s take an example of Google. When you search for a term on Google you will find that there are about 10 results that are displayed on the first page of Google results page. It takes quite a bit of effort to rank in one of these results. The people searching on Google seldom go to the 3rd, 4th or, the 5th page on Google. So if you wish to see your website featured on the first page of Google, you need to optimize your website for search engines and this process is called as “Search Engine Optimization”.

You need not be a wizard to optimize your pages for search engines. If you are running a blog, especially on WordPress, there are quite a few plugins that are available for SEO. In addition to these plugins there are certain other simple tools that are required to get better results out of your SEO objectives.

These tools are required for backlink building, backlink analysis, Content and text optimization, outgoing link analysis, keyword density analysis and so on. If these things sound like jargons to you, just search with each of the terms mentioned above on Google and you will get quite a bit of material to read and learn (Don’t get into it so much that you have to do a doctorate on SEO. Remember the 80-20 principle).

There are not too many free tools available for this, though you could find some if you search the internet. But one very good collection of tools are available at Shoemoney-tools. If you do not who Shoemoney is, then search the internet again. For your information, Shoemoney is the blog that has made millions to its owner Jeremy Schoemaker and Jeremy is a genius in making money online.

PPC Tools-
PPC is “Pay-per-Click”. It is unlikely that you would not know what PPC is, because every internet marketer starting his quest to make money online burns his pockets in the first few days at PPC campaigns. When I started, I lost $2000 in an hour at PPC.

PPC advertisements at Google is one of the most expensive way of gaining traffic and customers. But it is also true that Google PPC campaigns are the ones that give you the best results as well, if done wisely and correctly. PPC is going to be the second biggest source of traffic to your site. But be cautious when you get into PPC.

You would need a lot of tools if you are to succeed in PPC. These tools will help you better you ROI and ensure that you are profitable. When you do PPC advertisements, you have to find profitable keywords, check competition for these keywords, create ads that sell and manage these ads.

While there are a lot of free tools like Google Keyword Tool available on the internet, they would not do everything for you. You need to supplement it with some other good tools. Keyword Elite is one such tool that takes care of most of these things, but learning and using the tool will require some dedication and time of yours. Micro Niche Finder is another such tool, though I would not recommend it if you are not into mini-sites and niche marketing. (You can read more of this tool in my post here.)

Shoemoney tools also has a collection of the very best PPC tools. Their collection of tools would help you do all of what I had mentioned above.

Link Building Tools -
In order to rank well in search engines and to get organic traffic it is very important to build links. Backlinks and link-building is one of the most important aspects of SEO. But building backlinks is not very easy. It takes quite a bit of effort and at times this could consume so much of your time that you find yourselves short of time for other moe important and relevant activities.

Hence it is always advisable to outsource SEO activities. But since finding a genuine SEO expert is not that easy again, I prefer setting a time-table for myself for all my SEO activities so that it does not interfere with my other activities. Link building and analysis can be made easy if you have an appropriate tool for this.

Shoemoney tools again is one of the best place to find all of these tools. When I joined Shoemoney tools, I found a complete package for all the above things for one small price.

If you are to go about buying each of these tools or, subscribing to sites that offer such services, individually you might end up paying a few hundred dollars. But Shoemoney makes all these tools available at a single price.

You can send an email to me in case you face any difficulty with any of the above activities and I can help you. No fees or, charges. Don’t worry.
