Happy New Year 2011!! Here’s wishing everyone the best in your Internet Marketing and other online business opportunities lots of success. Beware long article!

Today Dec 31, 2010 is definitely a good day as it marked the day I launched my first Authority website. Yep, finally after a month of deliberating and doing some research as to how I should do this, I bought the necessary tools and blueprint, and I have today published my website and 4 “authority” pages.

The tools I used for Authority Website:

1. Xfactor’s ‘The Authority Site Adsense Guide’
2. Dr Andy Williams’ Web Content Studio

Part II of my Adsense journey Begins

For those of you who remembered about 15 months ago I started my adsense journey and bought myself the now famous Micro Niche Adsense Course from XFactor as well as XsitePro, a powerful web building software and launched more than 20 niche sites during this time.

Well guess what…looks like history is about to repeat itself. Part II of my adsense journey begins officially today and I’m turning 3 of these niche sites into authority websites as well as adding a brand new health niche authority website. I’m still following XFactor (John)’s method only this time he just released his latest blueprint for ‘Advanced Adsense Publisher Guide to Making More Money With less sites‘. That’s perfect for me as I’ve recently stopped adding more niche sites and a few months ago already had thoughts of making a few of my sites to authority sites. I guessed John must have read my mind.

Why Authority Websites?

I’ll be perfectly honest with you. For a long time I was living under a misconception of what an authority website really is and who is fit to create one. I once thought that only the “big guns” or the more established marketers should be the ones since they already have the “authority tag” accorded to them. Not quite really as I found out recently.

Now I know an authority website need not be another CNN or Yahoo News nor must it be the most beautifully designed site. In short you and I could well launch an authority website within the next 1 week – if we wanted to that is. I’ve experienced some success in building niche sites and now building a few authority sites is just putting that icing on the cake. I called it a natural progression. It’s also called focusing on the long term, creating passive income and generally working towards making more money online only this time using few sites

Some Information about XFactor’s Authority Site Adsense Guide

It would be impossible to give a meaningful review of this advanced adsense blueprint without giving away all his techniques and that would be unethical so I won’t even go near there. So if whatever little information I could share with you may seem somewhat hard to comprehend, please excuse me and you would know why this is so.

It’s a very comprehensive book and John goes into great length to make his 217 pages book so easy to understand. It’s not an extension of his earlier book which I bought 15 months ago; it’s his second book. There are many tips that he gave but to me the most important thing I learned from him was how he makes creating authority websites so simple.He made it look simple because he teaches how to theme our articles as a part of his technique. He uses Web Content Studio to help find all the theme words for any articles we plan to write, articles that Google loves.

If you do not know what “theming an article is”, think LSI and long tail keywords to give you an idea. It’s also about how it will get you lots of traffic even if the keywords are highly competitive. So if you’ve been trained to believe you should only do keyword research and focusing on choosing keywords that have more traffic and less competition, that’s old school and a lot more difficult to do, I might add since everyone does that. With theming, it’s about less traffic as far as all the keyword tools tell you, insane competition but you still get lots of traffic all the same. It sounds a little hard to understand but the ebook will go into every great detail. It’s worth the $39 I paid for (first timer to his course pays $97).

I have just learned the proper way of ”siloing” my sites and that is not only good site structure for easy navigation on your site by your visitors, I’ve learned long ago it’s good for SEO too. Well that’s just a small part of what his Adsense Guilde teaches, the same techniques he uses to now make over $1000 per day.

How I Use Web Content Studio To Write Articles For My Authority Sites

This strategy is simple yet very powerful. When I first read about it, naturally I was simply amazed at this technique. I was hoping I could save some money not buying the tool and tried to do the work manually. The result – it’s too tedious and time consuming and at the end left me frustrated because I couldn’t check how well or badly I had done the “theming” process myself. And I can’t possibly do this for every article that I write. Well enter Dr Andy Williams’ Web Content Studio that cuts down 3 hours of research work to a mere few minutes. I relented, paid for this tool and now think this is the best tool I’ve ever come across.

With theme keywords strategy,I write my article relatively long – about 1000 words but with this tool, it’s really quite easy but you just follow a “process”.

What is Web Content Studio?

It contains a set of tools in a suite all under one big software application. This explains the name “studio” and all the tools are located on conveniently placed tabs that you can click to easily go to. So you have a scratchpad that has an auto “grabber” feature that copies whatever research work you choose from any website that you conveniently placed in your “bookmarks”, another tab in this software suite. Other tabs include ‘Editor”, ‘Researcher’, ‘Keywords’ and ‘Notes’.

These tools are cleverly thought of by Dr Andy Williams to help you research the keywords that Google expect from authority sites whenever you write your contents. So if you are planning to write an article on say “affiliate marketing”, this tool will query Google  for the phrase “affiliate marketing”, and visit all the relevant pages listed at the top 10 (you select how many) sites and extract for you all the theme words like “affiliate”, “network”, “advertising”, “commission:, “merchant” and theme phrases like “contextual advertising”, “revenue sharing”, “cost per action”, “compensation methods” used by these top 10 sites Google ranked.

Once you have these keywords presented in a report (again all shown in this “Studio”) the objective is to write your article (Editor tab) that includes all these theme words and theme phrases. How many and what words you used are really up to you (you just put a ’tick’ on these words) but in the manual that comes with your purchase of Web Content Studio, Andy explains and provides suggestions based on not just his theory but showing you his real live cases and the results achieved. The result is that you will learn just what it takes to write your best article with these theme words and phrases that Google expects to see.

Here is a quick summary of the process flow when I write each of my well themed articles (in WCS):

1. Create a blank article page
2. Do keyword research.
3. Clean the list using the compare against top 10 so you only get the most popular words in your final list of theme words.
4. Write your article.
5. Check theme of article.

There are quite a few videos that Andy provides to make you understand completely how to do it but I’ll just let you see one video on using the keyword spider to find the most important theme words:

tutorial-keyword-spider/

Is Web Content Studio for you?

I guess only you will have the answer. For me, because I write articles everyday either researching for my clients when writing their articles or I write for my top niche sites especially the 3 sites that I decided to make them authority sites. This software is saving me lots of tedious time in my article research. The best part of using this tool for me is that I actually look forward to the next article that I write. I have to say both this and writing 1000 word articles 2 weeks ago would have been an insane thought.

So, you’ve decided to take yourself out of the rat race and embark on your own Internet home business venture. Good for you! It takes guts and a clear vision, but for those with enough courage to take the leap, the rewards can be great. Unfortunately, not everyone might have as firm a grasp on why you would want to start a home Internet business. Because people don’t understand your job, you’re going to be forced at every turn to defend yourself and your decision. If you prepare for people’s questioning, however, you can respond smartly and boost your own confidence in your endeavor.

So what do you do, anyway?

This is possibly the most common negative comment you’ll experience. It’s frustrating, because with any friend you know who works in an office, you wouldn’t ask, “what do you do in that office all day, anyway?” Because office work has been accepted by society, people don’t question it, even though it can often be very pointless. Instead of getting annoyed though, practice a standard response, basically a sales pitch for how great your business is. Write up a two or three sentence description of your business and what you do. Edit it and make it pop. Instead of mumbling, “uh, well, I write content for uh, a blog,” you’ll have a savvy, professional response that will dispel their doubts.

This is just a side gig, right?

People without the same courage and entrepreneurial spirit as you don’t understand how you could possibly quit a stable job to look for something better. If you want to shut them up quick, respond casually and cooly with, “Actually, once I get my websites going, I can make more money online than I ever could have at my old job.”

How can you possibly make any money doing that?

If you’re getting this question in the first place, your questioner probably isn’t familiar with how niche blogging and search engine optimization work. Maybe it’s coming from your Grandma or even your parents. Put your answer in simple terms: “If you have a website that’s popular because a lot of people are searching for your subject matter, you can make money in ad revenue.”

Isn’t that a bad career move?

People used to the traditional, inch your way up the corporate ladder career strategy don’t see how working for yourself can fit into your larger life picture. Depending on where you’re planning on taking your career, there are a couple of different ways to get them to rethink their comment. If you want to work for yourself for the rest of your life, simply respond by saying that your home business will grow more valuable over time, making you more and more secure as you get older. Or, you can tell them that the blogging skills you’ll learn will be very marketable, if you do decide you want a more conventional job later on.

So, do you just sit around in your pajamas all day?

Sometimes people will annoyingly assume that just because you work from home, it means you don’t work at all. Laugh casually and tell them the truth: “Now that I work for myself, I work harder than I ever did before!” Tell them how many hours you dedicate to your business, and how it’s much easier to stay busy when everything you accomplish is for your own benefit.

How can your tiny websites compete with all the huge ones on the Net?

If your great Aunt Sally has never been off of her Yahoo homepage, it might be difficult to explain to her about how many smaller websites there are out there. Give it a try though, explaining that niche sites have appeal because they don’t have all the noise of the bigger portals– they focus only on one thing people are looking for, and do it well.

Congratulations on taking the leap in starting your own home Internet business. While people will inevitably express doubts about your success, don’t listen–have faith in your own abilities and in the strength of your business plan. You know that what you’re doing is best for you, so don’t worry about everyone else.

Work At Home Business-The Awful Truth

Let’s face it. There are still too many people who believe that online business opportunities are quick ways to start a home business. But the reality is that 95 percent of new online business owners fail to maintain their businesses, let alone make money. I suspect with the current world recession with more people losing jobs, having a wrong purpose and focus, this rate may get even higher.

Is Making Money Online Tough?

You bet it is. Don’t believe what you hear or read that making money is easy. It never is nor will it get any easier in the future. But what about those who found success who made up the 5 percent cohort? Well that’s easy – simply put they found a proven system that works and a vehicle or platform to drive their business – a successful website.

What Skills are needed to Make Money Online?

1. Your journey to the Internet Marketing world can be full of surprises when you are new at it. It’s important to follow a marketing plan and stay on course whenever you encounter setbacks.

2. Be ready and willing to learn the business. Learn the skills to be able to motivate yourself and push yourself to your optimum.

3. Learn to identify trend settings and changes and be prepared to change your business strategy when it’s needed.

4. Have a clear objective of your business goals. Working smart is better than working hard if you want to generate multiple streams of income for your online business.

Choosing An Honest Proven Home Business

Some of the key elements of a successful online business opportunities are:

• a focused market – the more focus, the better
• a product people in the market are hungry for
• a good marketing strategy – to put your product in front of prospective buyers
• attract high quality targeted traffic to your site

Do You Really Need A Website

While it’s still possible to start a home business without a website, it’s definitely more convenient to have one. With such keen competition around you, having a web presence inevitably helps to expedite your business growth and expand your market significantly.

With a website, you also make yourself available to your customers in other time zones across the globe, not just your local geographical area. Advertising campaigns are now done cheaper and more effectively and gone are the days of using cumbersome and costly mailing lists. It has even spawn newer technologies like web 2.0. So keeping abreast of web technology changes is vital if you want to reap whatever potential benefits they bring to your website.

There are people who have built successful website businesses with little or no previous internet skills. So  Although there are no special qualifications like Internet Marketing or website design to start out an online business opportunity, it is important to find one that works. Check out this Honest-HomeBusiness.com which looks promising and teaches you “how to build a successful website business that really earns money even as a complete beginner“.

The concept of working from home is a very appealing thing. It seems like most people hate their day job. Someone always has a terrible manager or a boss who treats people unfairly. There is stress with driving to work, stress with gas prices always being high, stress with waking up in the morning and making sure you’re going to clock in on time. The cycle never ends and as the days go by, more and more working from home sounds like an amazing idea.

Working from home is totally a possibility, but unfortunately most people who try, fail. There are common reasons for these failures and these are some of the things that I want to help you with in this article.

Working from home isn’t much different than working a normal job for an employer. The few differences are that instead of reporting to a boss, you report to yourself. Also, instead of someone else holding you accountable to perform your job to standard, you have to hold yourself accountable. People who fail to work from home aren’t really failures, they are instead people who have actually fired themselves. Think about it… if you don’t perform your job well, your boss will fire you. If you attempt to work from home and your don’t perform well, you basically fire yourself.

Success with working from home can be achieved if you place respect in what you want to do. Meaning, if you treat your work at home job just like you treat your day job, the outcome may be much better. I see so many people who work at normal day jobs bust their butts for an entire year just to get a great annual review that will increase their pay by only a few cents per hour. Folks who invest that same mentality into their work at home jobs have a higher chance at success.

Success with working from home can be achieved when you start thinking like your day job boss thinks. Your boss or manager has a ton of responsibility. Your manager has been hired to oversee that things remain profitable for your employer. Study your boss and study why he does the things he does. Believe it or not, and whether you like your boss or not, there is a rhyme and reason behind his madness. If you learn what it is he does to keep your employer’s business profitable, these skills can be transferred down into your own work at home business.

One more piece of advice I will share with you is that commonly people turn to the Internet because for whatever the reason may be, they have drawn the conclusion that making money online is something that is easy. This is far from the truth. Making money online is not easy. Making money online is probably one of the most difficult things to achieve; however, if you find success with earning online, the benefits are amazing. That is one thing most people immediately understand is that the benefits are very rewarding; however, most people choose to ignore the challenges faced with their ventures.

If you want to work from home, that is awesome! We all support you. However, take things slowly. Blueprint your business model, just as if you were charting out a brick and mortar business. The concept of creating an online business almost mirror images the concept of creating an offline business. It is equally as complicated; but fortunately, it is much cheaper. With online business you don’t have to pay thousands of dollars in rent or royalties. Nor do you have to pay for employees.

As we search for the next awesome home business ideas on how to get more RSS subscribers or how to get repeat visitors, truth be told, you may not need to look further than your own business blog.

Here are just 10 of the best WordPress Plugins that can do almost anything that you can imagine. Yes, converting readers into your most loyal subscribers may seem to take much more than a mere wordpress plugin. But in this competitive world of our blogosphere, with many emerging potential bloggers trying to follow the paths of John Chow, Yaro and Darren Rowse, it may need a little more effort than you think. It could well be that simple yet clever plugin you found, to win you yet another subscriber. Hopefully I can give you a headstart here.

Your blog readers want information fast….

Search Everything A new reader comes to your blog for the sole purpose of finding something he has queried in the search engine. Whether he succeeds to find this information on your blog is one thing, how he eventually found it is another. The good or bad experience while locating this piece of information will decide if this visitor will ever become your repeat visitor to your blog. Your default search utility that you have on your home business blog lets the reader perform searches only on your posts. This plugin written by Dan Cameron, however gives your visitors more search options by allowing them to search pages, attachments, comments, and custom fields.

Getting readers engaged in current conversations….

Subscribe to Comments This  plugin allows visitors who comment on your blog, an opportunity to subscribe to e-mail notifications of subsequent comments. Written by Mark Jaquith, the plugin also allows your visitors to unsubscribe from specific posts, block all notifications, and change their e-mail addresses.

Saying thanks to new readers to your home business blog….

Comment Relish Here is a simple WordPress plugin written by Justin Shattuck to send an e-mail message to new readers who commented on your blog for the first time. It’s more of a “thank-you for coming” kind of message that readers may appreciate and hopefully subscribe to your business blog too (if you’re lucky) using the RSS link found in the email.

Value your blog visitors’ comment….

Edit Comments TX Michael Woehrer’s plugin gives your visitors a 30 minute time frame to edit any comments before they leave your blog. Readers will appreciate having the chance to make fine corrections.

Good communication leads to better call to actions….

Contact Form The golden rule of thumb is that you must be contactable at all times and reply to any of your readers or subscribers’ questions. It may well be a sale, an ad purchase or any business opportunity which may be time sensitive.  Having a contact form on your blog serves this purpose and secures that deal.

Readers remember little things on your home business blog….

Bookmark Me I like to think that there are many people who still bookmark pages that they like at social bookmarking sites such as Del.icio.us, Twitter, Technorati, StumbleUpon. Well help them help you when you let them subscribe your pages with this Plugin.

Blog visitors’ favorite plugins for building backlinks….

Commentluv I’ve known some serious bloggers who are pretty addicted to blog commenting and working to get “top commentator” spot at all their favorite blogs is like a job that needs to be completed – daily.  Here is another condition they look out for – it must have commentluv on their blogs. Honestly you are going to benefit from such people like me these bloggers when you install Commentluv by Andy Bailey. DoFollow This dofollow plugin for WordPress lets you remove the nofollow attribute from your comments. There has been a lot of discussion on the merits of nofollow vs dofollow, but personally I think If someone takes the time to offer a unique, well thought-out comment to a topic on your blog, then they deserve a backlink for their efforts.  Even if someone tells me it is depleting my link juice on my pages. Just side-tracking a little, I’ve always given out freely more link love than I can ever remember. Just taking a look at this post The Easiest Way To Get Backlinks Starts Here, and you will see my point I’m making here.

Readers’ Appreciation- a little pampering does wonders….

WP-Print/ WP-Email Readers who are less technically savvy and who communicate a lot on email will definitely love these plugins. WP E-mail lets you send the entire post or page to yourself, or to someone else.  WP Print displays a nicely formatted, printable version of your post. Good for tutorials or reading on the move. Bonus Plugin: Broker Link Checker How many of these WordPress plugins do you have on your blog.  Only those that are good for the reader experience. If you have a good one to share I’d love to hear from you too.

While we search for newer technological link exchange breakthrough for our work at home business, surpassing the likes of our current linking softwares, automated [tag-tec]link exchange[/tag-tec] programs, or that popular Link Machine in your website, we often neglect an easier way of doing it. It’s akin to developing a product but the bio products turned out unexpectedly and better than you’ve ever imagined. What’s this goose that lays you the golden eggs?

1. Link Exchange – Your Inside Pages

The open secret of the importance of Inside Pages, was revealed and documented by 2 college students 10 years ago who later co-founded Google. In terms of SEO and specifically link building, this means that besides linking your work at home main page with other bloggers, you ought to include your Inside Pages in your linking and link exchange efforts. More details in Link Building Strategy-Deep Links-Part 1.

How to find out page rank of your inside pages
In order to be able to exchange your links with other bloggers, you will firstly have to determine how good your pages are. How valuable or link exchange worthy are your inside pages and how can you tell? Well there are two ways of getting the same results. The first is the old fashion way by using your familiar page rank checker or the Google pagerank toolbar if you have already installed on your computer. The second is what I recommend, an automated tool that shows you all your inside pages by their pagerank just by typing your work at home business website url. All it takes is one minute and you have this complete list, hopefully some with very good ranking and you’re almost ready for link exchange.

2. Establish Business Relationships

You may argue that forming business partnerships is time consuming. But then again who says SEO or link building is fast. I’m sure just keeping it in mind and over time, building your home internet business network can be achieved and something that comes naturally if you asked me.

As a start as you embark on this link exchange program, you should communicate with those you are in constant dialogue with including your work at home business partners, friends, favorite webmasters, your top commentators in your blog. If you stop for a moment to think this through you may be pleasantly surprised at how many people you’ve got on hand.

3. Determine a Fair Exchange Link Placement

It is good to establish what you think is a fair exchange of links among the interested bloggers who wish to conduct link exchanges with you. The most obvious determinant usually is your page rank and whether the link is from your home page or inside pages. It should also include what you deem as a fair exchange when you do 2-way link exchanges as opposed to 3-way link exchanges.

4. Review My Blog

My recent post ‘Review My Blog Get Free Linkback‘ is actually a link exchange between two bloggers. This post invites bloggers to post a simple review in their blogs but linking to my post and my website. In return I link back to this blog by writing a ‘My Review Post‘. Both parties also agree on the specific anchor text to be used for obvious [tag-tec]SEO ranking[/tag-tec] benefits.

5. Exchange Articles

You can exchange blog posts with other bloggers in similar niche markets. However to prevent duplication content issues, I would recommend not using a full post. I would suggest writing a short synopsis of the topic and followed with (for example) “Here are 20 Ways to make 100 Dollars per day online” link to the blog instead of “Read More Here” link. By the way this is good for SEO linking technique, which probably deserves another post for discussion.

What Do You Think?
Do you think these are 5 easy ways you can gear up your link building strategy to another level of success for your home business opportunities specifically SEO and traffic? I really love to hear what you have to say.

From Peter Lee:
Please feel free to contact me for possible link exchanges, review my blog, articles exchange for our mutual benefit in SEO and specifically link building.

The author of this post is Tisha (Kulak) Tolar, a writer for Creditorweb.com, where she writes about credit card offers, business credit cards and small home business finances. We often get too carried away with our usual work at home business activities that we neglect what is critical to remain in home business – our financials.

In these times of credit problems, overextension of credit limits, and difficulties with the overall economy, business owners have every reason to be fearful of their financials. However, fear should not mean avoidance. Instead it should mean business owners need to become savvier and more effective at making decisions in every aspect of their business.

While it is true that credit cards can quickly be the downfall of a business if not managed properly, it is even more realistic to understand that credit cards can also be a positive to a new or growing business. In essence, credit cards do not spend themselves. The decision to use a credit card is solely the business owner’s action. If used responsibly, credit cards can bring plenty of benefits to the business table.

Here are 5 specific ways that credit cards can be advantageous to a developing business if used intelligently and for business reasons only.

Credit Building

For small businesses just starting out or medium-sized businesses looking to expand, a credit card account that is kept current and paid in full can be a great boost to the credit rating of the business. This benefit may not seem to be a big deal during the beginning phase of growth but will certainly be necessary when business growth requires expansion and larger loans are needed to keep up with the business demand. Your business may need to seek the assistance from a bank or private investor in order to keep things expanding and if your business does not have a sufficient or positive credit rating, it will be difficult to secure such assistance when you need it the most.

Expense Tracking

Just like personal finances, expense tracking is essential to maintain a strong business foundation. A thorough understanding of where all of the money is coming from and going to is key to being able to make a profit. Using a business credit card is one of the easiest ways to ensure you’ve tracked correctly each month. Statements can be broken down into different categories for each purchase made, thus enabling you to see where and when you spent profits, how to better manage a business budget, and you can also see how close you come to your business plan financial projections.

Access to Working Capital

Working capital is what funds are needed to keep the business going on a day to day basis. Businesses just starting out or working on expansion are often cash poor. Invoicing and collecting accounts receivables do not always flow on a consistent basis and often times businesses find they do not have enough money to stay afloat. Instead of investing large amounts of personal money into your business fund, you can ease a bit of the burden using credit cards to keep moving forward as long as you have a solid plan to pay off the balance each month. Credit cards can easily make the cash crunch situation worse if used irresponsibly but having access to a business credit card in the event of emergencies can certainly be a help until the receivables come in.

Rewards Working for You

If you were savvy enough to find a credit card that offers a benefit program that directly complements your business needs, you will likely find that those benefit rewards do make a difference. Whether your business has been saving thousands of dollars on travel fees, or enjoying straight up, cash back rewards, a rewards program really can make a difference in your financials each month, provided you have a thorough understanding of how the program works. Doing your research prior to selecting a company credit card is essential if you expect the card to work in your favor as opposed to working against your margin of profit.

Access to Business Resources

Again, going back to the thorough understanding of your business credit card account is essential to making you credit card work smart for your business. In addition to the perks and rewards of individual card programs, many business cards also offer free access to business resources not available to just anyone. Business card companies need to remain competitive in their own right so they often provide valuable informational articles, business tips, specialized expense reporting, and other hot topics business owners can used to stay informed.
