Site Publishers &
Webmasters!
Your Site Can Make Money
On The Internet With These Companies !
I hope that you enjoy At
Work and Bored.com and I thank you for telling
all your friends about it. I really enjoy collecting and writing
the material for it -- it's truly a labor of love.
But I also make money with the site.
The entertainment that you receive and my effort creating
it are paid for through various advertising systems that I
use.
If you have a site now or you are interested
in putting up a site, here are some suggestions for various
ways to enhance your earnings potential. I use these and
recommend them to you. And good luck in
this new frontier we call the Internet!
WEBSITE PUBLISHERS! - DISPLAY
BANNER ADS! The best company I've found for displaying
BANNER ADS on your site is FASTCLICK.
The great thing about them is that they pay you a whopping
65% of the revenue that they receive for the ads that
they show. They pay on a COST-PER-CLICK (CPC) or a COST-PER-THOUSAND
(CPM) basis and since they receive 35% of the revenue
they are motivated to keep the rates as high as possible.
They pay by the 25th of the month for the previous month
and they pay like clockwork-- very reliable.
They go out and sell ad space to advertisers and then
they divide these ads among their publishers. There is very
little unsold ad space so you are earning money with each
page you serve. You can filter the ad types to exclude
ads you don't want and they present the most lucrative
ads first so you always earn the most for each ad displayed.
You just sign up and paste their ad code on your pages
and they do the rest. There are also reports so that you can
track the effectiveness of each ad category and ad. They work
with smaller sites and giants. So give FASTCLICK
a try!
WEBSITE ADVERTISERS! You can also use
FASTCLICK to get your message on the internet through
FASTCLICK's
network of over 30,000 websites. So give FASTCLICK
a try!
WEBSITE PUBLISHERS! - AFFILIATE
PROGRAM! You can't fill all of your ad space with CPC
and CPM ads so you need a company that can provide alternative
(default) ads. ADREPORTING
is a good choice for that company. It's a PAY-FOR-PERFORMANCE
program which means you earn money when the reader clicks
on the ad and buys something or fills out a lead form.
And ADREPORTING
keeps track of which programs are most successful so you can
pick the advertisers that are likely to earn you the most
money. The products they feature are products that are
often inquired about through Internet so you get a
good CLICK-THROUGH-RATE They are very reliable about payment.
So give them a try.
WEBSITE PUBLISHERS! - INCREASE
YOUR TRAFFIC! Here's a great way to increase traffic
to your site. This is a page exchange system. When your
website loads TRAFFICZAP
loads another webmasters page under yours (a POPUNDER). For
every two pages you load, TRAFFICZAP
loads your home page under another publishers site
-- a 2-1 ratio.
You can also buy popunders of your site for as low as 0.3
cents per exposure. This system has a very high CLICK-THROUGH-RATE
of over 6% so a lot of people will click through and visit
your entire site. So give TRAFFICZAP
a try. And watch your traffice grow.
WEBSITE
PUBLISHERS! YOUR OWN CUSTOM MERCHANDISE!
Have you noticed At
Work and Bored.com's Online Store? I wanted to sell
products with the site's mascots -- Joe Webb and Carla --
on various merchandise: coffee mugs, T-shirts, mouse pads,
etc. But the hassle of creating the products, stocking
inventory, taking secure credit card sales and shipping product
rapidly were way to much to handle.
Enter CafePress.com.
They allow you to sell great products with none of these problems.
They stock all of the merchandise and they create your
high quality products one at a time as your customers
order them! All you do is sign up and upload your artwork
(they have great help pages to explain the art specs for each
item).
CafePress takes the order, manufactures and ships the product
and pays you for each sale. They set a base price for each
item and you determine how much of a markup you want. The
difference between your marked-up price and the base price
is your commission. And they have an amazing selection
of products: clothing, posters, calendars even CDs and Books!
The Basic Shop is free and the Premium Shop costs as low as
4.99 a month and allows you to customize the shop to match
your site and have as many different products as you desire.
Just create your art and you're in business. So check out
CafePress.com.
You'll be glad you did!
WEBSITE PUBLISHERS! - HERE'S A
GREAT WEB HOSTING COMPANY. If you've been doing this Internet
thing for any time now you've probably been through several
web hosting companies. I know I have. Sure you want a
low price for a lot of disk space and bandwidth. But you
don't want to sacrifice reliability and good customer service.
After a lot of research I switched to IMHOSTED.COM.
What makes them better?
First of all, reliability! They have a remarkable
uptime of 99.998% It translates to less than 35 seconds of
downtime per month!There's no sense in saving a few dollars
on your host if your site is down for an hour every few days
or your e-mail is delayed or returned. They even guarantee
99.5% uptime! The technical and billing assistance
is excellent and they speak English so it's easy to communicate
with them. I've never had difficulties getting quick answers
to questions.
Their price for disk space and bandwidth is competitve (and
you can rollover unused bandwidth). So if you're frustrated
with your present host give IMHOSTED.COM.
a try. And if you're brand new to the net -- why not start
out right? Try IMHOSTED.COM.
You'll be glad you did!
