An excellent way to earn extra money

I came across a short and sweet article showing the way to work at home and make extra money without having to foot out any cash. To share it with you, I have reproduced the informative article here:

Let Me Show You How I Make A Living Online by: Jonathan Schummer

Hello Friend,

After hundreds of hours of searching the internet, I finally found a way to make a steady income from home. And all I do is give my opinion! Now I would like to share this opportunity with you.
First, signing up is completely free and you never have to pay a cent after you sign up. It is completely risk-free!

Let me tell you about my typical day:
I wake up every morning, not when my alarm goes off, but when I am done sleeping. I make myself breakfast, enjoy a cup of coffee, then spend 2-3 hours on the internet filling out surveys and participating in focus groups. Then I spend the rest of the day doing whatever I want to do. That's it!

Since I have started this program,I am making more money than I did at my old job and have more time to spend with my family.

If you would like to quit your hourly job, work when you want, and spend more time with your family, I encourage you to visit the site I use to make money daily. It is totally free to sign up and you never have to pay to take a survey or participate in a focus group.

Here is the website: http://www.myfreesurveys.com/jonsch9999/home.htm
Again I encourage you to give this a try. I have had great success and I know you will too. If you put in the time to give it a try, I guarantee you will not be dissapointed.

Internet Explorer Comes of Age

A web browser is one of the most commonly used programs in this day and information age. The most popular browser in the world is Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 that comes with Windows.

However, during the past five years since the advent of IE6, a lot of innovations and improvements have been made by competing browsers like Opera, Mozilla Firefox and Crazy Browser.

Internet Explorer is playing catch-up. It has been five long years between IE6 and the coming IE7, so there is a lot of catch-up to do. Nevertheless, it looks like Microsoft is doing it very well.

Three days ago I downloaded the IE7 beta 3 and found it to be wonderfully and pleasantly different from IE6 which I had been using. (They ask for validation of genuine Windows XP.) The first thing I notice is that IE7 beta 3 has a very streamlined layout and you see more of the webpage being viewed.

Also, significant progress is in the offering of tabbed browsing, an ability to accept RSS feeds and the claimed better security when you do e-shopping.

When IE7 opens, your homepage appears in the first tab window. To view another page you click on New Tab button and load the next page, and so on. Each tab page acts like another browser where you can go forward and backwards. The tab can be closed by clicking the X on the side of the tab.

One convenient feature is the Quick Tabs button which opens up a window showing all the open tab pages in thumbnail images. You can click on a thumbnail image to view the full page or you can click on the X to close the tab page.

I find that tabbed browsing increases efficiency and saves time. It enables one to work faster. You can open multiple web pages (about 8 will still be manageable) in a single browser window and view each of them in turn by clicking on the respective tabs. It is like switching between worksheets in Microsoft Excel.

Tabbed browsing facilitates daily tasks, like checking your affiliate earnings from different websites, or accessing several email accounts to check your mail. These websites can be saved in Favorites in separate groups and each group can be opened with all the component websites with one click.

It is also very useful in situations when you are checking prices on different websites, or comparing opinions and various angles in articles on different websites.

It is particularly useful when you surf traffic exchanges to promote your websites. By saving all your traffic exchange programs in one group, they can all be lined up ready with one click on the group and accessed by simply clicking on the respective tabs. Imagine how much time you can save and how much more credits you can chalk up if you line up say 5 or 6 traffic exchanges at one go.

All in all, I would say well done to Microsoft in coming up with IE7 beta 3 which is the final beta before the IE7 product is released. Tabbed browsing is indeed an exhilarating experience.

What every affiliate has to learn to earn big money

There is a hue and cry about how easy it is to carry out a work at home online business using just a computer and Internet connection working on promoting affiliate programs. However, it is not as easy as it seems because you won’t be getting anything big by just promoting the affiliate links. Some people take one to three years to discover that.

What is essential in affiliate marketing is having an opt-in email list. And that is a big hurdle for newbies to cross. Most people have trouble trying to figure out how to build a list as there are so many components to consider, making it rather confusing.

First, one has to figure out what an autoresponder is and what things it can do. One also has to find out how and where to get an autoresponder, which one to use and how much one has to pay for it.

Also, you have to realize the extreme importance of having a list. You also have to be clear on what an opt-in list is and how many people it usually consists of.

Then you worry about how to get subscribers onto your list, how to get a website and how to get traffic to your website. Another important thing you have to learn is how to actually process orders online.

You also have to learn how to do a legal “unsubscribe link” so that people who are not interested can opt out and you will not be accused of spamming. As to the people who opt in, you may have to figure out how many messages you should send to them and how often. Of course, you will also have to figure out what to write to these people who are your prospective customers.

After getting your list you can email them many times to encourage them to look at your products and buy. Chances of sales will be very much higher then, as studies have shown that people usually buy only after six or seven exposures to the ads.

All these are indeed mind boggling to the newbie affiliate program marketer who has not yet built his first list, or those who have tried and failed. That is the main reason why many affiliates are not earning money. By just overcoming this, the money will start rolling in. You should look at the various components as mentioned above and learn about them one by one.

To learn all these, one has to spend some time to look around the Internet with the help of search engines and read the many free articles and free ebooks. However, for those who can afford it and willing to part with some money, it is recommended that you take a look at http://www.myfirstlist.com/specialoffer .

How To Get Started In Google Adsense

There are more than a dozen ways to earn substantial money on the Internet, the most popular being affiliate marketing. However, affiliate marketing is not as straightforward as simply promoting affiliate links on the Internet as it has to involve opt-in email lists and lots of persistence to succeed in any big way.

At the moment there is an easier way to make money on the Internet, that is by publishing Google AdSense on your website or websites. It is by far one of the easiest ways to make money on the Net.

What you do is just copy and paste some javascript codes given by Google onto your web pages and the contextual ads will appear. (You don’t have to know how to read or write javascript, you just copy and paste.) When website visitors click on the ads, you make money.

And the ads are very likely to be clicked because they are contextual, meaning that the Google crawler has sensed the content and given ads that are relevant to the content of the page. That’s why it is called AdSense and it works very well with content-rich web pages.

There’s no necessity to sell or crack your brains. It’s a no-brainer. Google does all the thinking for you. Apart from its simplicity, Google AdSense is a lucrative gold mine. There are many cases of people earning thousands of dollars a month by simply displaying the ads on their websites.

Of course, one has to drive traffic to the websites by the various means such as search engine optimization, links exchanging, classified ads or traffic exchanges. More visitors to your website means more clicks on the ads, which translates into more money to your account.

However, there are several things which have to be considered if you want to fine-tune your AdSense to gain maximum profit, such as choosing to use high-paying keywords and phrases in your content so that the expensive ads will appear. When the more expensive ads appear and are clicked on, you earn more money.

Other things to consider are making the color of the fonts blend with your web page because it has been found to invite more clicks, and placing the ads in positions that are convenient for people to click.

And you can read up all about the subtler points in free e-books on the Internet regarding Google AdSense secrets written by various gurus. As such, if you haven’t got a Google AdSense account yet, I suggest you get one as soon as possible and start raking in the money. Google paid out a total of one billion dollars to AdSense publishers in 2005.
Go to http://www.google.com/adsense

However, some of you may not have your own website. But not to worry, that’s no problem. You can still join in the fray fast to profit from AdSense.

That is because Google has a blogging service called Blogger.com which is completely free to join at http://www.blogger.com/ . Here you can start a blog on whatever subject you can think of. After you have posted several paragraphs on the subject to create the blog, you can add a couple of related articles from the free article directories, but make sure you credit the authors and let the links remain live.

Then apply for an AdSense account by following the instructions at Blogger.com. After a day or so, you will receive an email from Google telling you that your account has been approved. From then Google AdSense ads will be on your blog and the fun of making money begins.
