How to improve SEO using Hubpages

      So, combing through the vast distances of the internet I have found a site that will dramatically increase your page rank or what experienced individuals in the industry call SEO or Search Engine Optimization.  This is a very high traffic site that allows individuals to post hubs which are essentially a one page blog or a post on whatever topic the writer desires.  Now you are probably wondering how does this increase my SEO. Well, the answer to that is through the backlinks you can create on Hubpages pointing to the site you are trying to improve the rank of.

      For instance, the url of this blog is http://www.blogfollowprofit.blogspot.com/ and that is a link that I want to post on some highly ranked sites that have a steady flow of traffic to get people to click and view my website because it was available on Hubpages.  So if I make a hub about Clickbank products on Hubpages I can throw in a link to my blog and it will start to funnel people to my blog via my Hubpages hub.  This is a very simple and free way to improve your blogs SEO using backlinks on highly ranked sites like Facebook or Hubpages.  I currently have my Hubpages account @ blogfollowproft pointing to this blog to help drive traffic to my blog also improving my SEO due to site visits and further improving my page rank.  This is one of countless techniques you can use.  I will be showcasing other techniques that I have found very helpful in the next few posts to come.

Can I Make A Blog?

Ever wonder how to make your own blog?

It is actually very simple.  Well, it can be very simple. It can also be very complex and extremely elaborate. It all depends on what you are trying to accomplish with the blog you create. One of the easiest ways to start a blog is with the help of Google's Blogger feature.  This is a free blogging tool that allows anyone to create a blog in a matter of five minuets.  The blog you are viewing right now is made using Blogger and it is fairly simple but serves its purpose.  I use this blog to inform fellow bloggers on how to make their blog better and potentially make some extra cash while expressing themselves.

The greatest part of blogging is you can write about whatever you want.  If you like squirrels you can go to blogger.com and make a blog with a URL like thecrazysquirrellover.blogspot.com.  It is a great tool to get used to writing content and posting it. Along with, having an automated analytics built in and comments and rss feeds and even the integration of Google AdSense. 

Well... what are you waiting for go start making your blog!

Honest Project Payday Review 2011 - 2013

I wrote this post two years ago in 2011 and my project payday money is still flowing. Granted I got a new job as an I.T. Director for a company and never really pursued my all online career but I have some income streams that I set up back then that I am still cashing in on today.  I hope my information has been helpful in your success as an internet/affiliate marketer.

This program has helped me make some extra money on the side for the past year or so. My Review: At first I was not so sure this was something I would be able to do. When I read through the material they sent me I just followed the program and with a few hours time I had made my first fifty bucks. This is all explained in the program but the way I have been making the majority of my money with this program is generating leads or referrals. They will pay you anywhere from 1.50 to 3.00 per referral. Now that may not seem like much at first but if you think about setting a goal for yourself such as 10 referrals per week and you are getting 2.00 per referral that is 20 dollars a week or that is 1040 dollars a year and that is only signing up 10 referrals a week. I have had days where I got 100 referrals and days where I get 2. If you have a good list or are good at getting leads then this is a program for you. Or if you are a self motivated go getter type person you can promote this program in endless ways. Summary: If you are good at generating leads or are very creative in marketing techniques then this program is for you.

3 Reasons to build a LIST

Some people live by their list, and others don't even believe a list is relevant.  This is a major issue with internet marketers and I am going to tell you three good reasons that you should build a list.

1) Having a group of go to people is a very helpful tool.  If you build a personal list of people that you stay in contact with you can have a team behind you.  Having a close relation with members of your list can prove to be extremely beneficial to your internet endeavors.  When you have a question that cannot be answered by internet searching maybe some of the tech savvy individuals on your list may be able to help you with a coding issue your ran into or help you convert a image to the specified needs for a template.  No matter what the case is having a close relation with the people on your list will almost never be a disadvantage.

2) Easy marketing crowd.  If you build your list of people trying to earn money then you will have that demeanor behind the list. If you build your list with a capture page for saving animals then your list will show the love for animals.  Depending what you are promoting is going to determine the type of people you have in your list.  Keeping this in mind, If you are promoting more than one product you may want to create different lists for each product/service depending on how alike the products/services are.  You can always create a master list of all contacts but keep your sub-lists as well so you can easily shoot emails or promos to that specific list when the opportunity arrives.

3) By having a loyal list you have a solid base for your marketing needs. So when you join your next MLM program you just use your auto-responder and send out hundreds of emails to your list members and instantly gain referrals or signups for the program and start making money fairly quickly.  But, you have to make sure that you have a QUALITY list.  This means that the people on the list are serious and willing to put out a little money to get some in return.  This is probably the hardest part of building a list.  You could have a list of one thousand people but if only 15 of them are serious about internet marketing and willing to invest then you are just wasting the other 900 and some odd peoples time by sending them emails that they probably don't even want.  With that said do not just use your lead capture page for making your list (yes this works but it is very impersonal and does not turnover as well) talk to the people use Skype or send them personal emails give them a phone call, show these people you care about them and really want to help them succeed in making money online.  When you make it personal people will trust you more and your sales and referrals will skyrocket.

Many people neglect the fact that the list is an extremely powerful tool.  The list is also considered to be exponential in some ways.  For example, you have a list of 87 close people that love internet marketing just as much as you do and you send them your new MLM program you just joined 72 of them join your MLM program now you have 72 people that have lists of hundreds and thousands of leads that you can get commissions from.  This just keeps going on down the line and depending on how the MLM program is set up you can go 5, 10, 15 and sometimes 20 levels deep with these referrals, making you tons of money with minimal effort on your part.

How do you use your list?

Why do I blog?

I have been asked multiple times over the past few months: Why do you waste your time blogging?

My answer to that question is both simple and complex at the same time.  It is simple because I like to offer help to others that are looking for it.

It is complex at the same time of what I do with my blogs.  I use them as a marketing tool and to expand my network.  By having faithful readers who trust me I have potential clients to purchase products I may offer.  Plus they are a great form or free advertisers because some will refer their friends to one of my blogs.  There is no limit to what you can do with a blog and that is why it is so neat.

I blog for passion to help others.
