Develop business networking to drive more traffic to your blog/ website

A lot of online earning opportunities involve networking. The more successful you are in online networking the more you likely to succeed in your earning endeavor. The fact that we need more traffic to our web pages to earn more makes this even more important. 


Now how to get going with networking?

If you are already part of a social networking site, make as many new friends who are active online as you can.Visit their blogs/sites/articles, leave comments and votes.

When you join a particular site which involves interaction with other members, make as many friends you can and comment/rate their articles.

There are sites which are ideal for promotion or drawing traffic to your articles/content. Being an active member of Twitter is one I strongly recommend. You can also consider sites like Digg, and Stumbleupon.

Have a Youtube account. The videos you upload there can be embedded into your blog/site.



Facebook is a very important business tool as well. You can either open a personal page or a business page and create auto feed through RSS to auto post the article links.

While networking, remember to create an interesting profile wherever required and keep your introduction simple.

Make sure to open a verified account with Paypal if you are serious about online earning

Paypal is the fastest and safest mode of ebanking and if have decided to make a living out of internet no way you can shove off its importance. Almost all online paying sites transact through Paypal. A few others have additional privilege of Alertpay and Moneybookers. However Paypal has been consistently very good.


I had little idea about the electronic fund transfer in the first place and Paypal was a wonder banking instrument for me. After a few months on my journey on myLot, I had opened an account with Paypal. it was an unverified account to start with and I hadn't had any problem transferring dollars. However, later I upgraded my account to a verified once, since it validated my account and I was told that it made my account safer.

There have been issues with Indian account holders in between. The Reserve Bank of India has laid down some regulatory measures for tracking unsolicited money. It is something that not really made the online workers happy.

Paypal and RBI have been in the news for a few years for their internal policy matters. This year, they have yet another bomb. According to the new pact, any balance into our PayPal account must be transferred to our bank account in India within 7 days from the receipt of confirmation.

According to RBI sources, if Paypal keeps our money more than 7 days, they have to pay us interests and apply for a banking permit, hence the 7 day time to transfer our money.

Amidst such scenario, what remains of 2-5 dollars after the deduction of 50 INR, is lot of unhappiness. More than 1/3rd of my online earning is now volatile and I was hoping to devote my whole time online to make living easier!

!


Inspite of this, Paypal still remains the safest mode of ebanking in India and worldwide

Even though, there are several other money making marketing tools available, the Yahoo publisher, Bidvetiser, Chikita, Adbrite to name a few, Google offers most authentic mode of earning and payment. Google Adsense has been, particularly, austere with their accounts these days, especially with the Asian countries. Several accounts been banned stating reasons like invalid clicks or impressions. Nothing could be more disheartening than that. However, having said this, the key lies in our hands and we can actually safeguard our accounts by adopting simple measures.

First and foremost: NO CLICKS from your IP address. False clicks to increase your earning will be caught immediately. Do not encourage others to click from your computer also. Adsense would not understand your alibi.

Plagiarism or duplicating from other sources is a cyber crime and recently Adsense is terminating accounts that consistently post plagiarized stuffs. Be original and be creative.

12 tips for Newbies to start earning cents online


Earning on the internet involves a lot on activity. You need to do a lot of networking, sharing, interacting in a way that benefits each other. A major earning logarithm works on down line building and gathering referrals, while others require you to write proactively, consistently and voraciously. Having spent days researching on the right kind of approach on right kind of sites and to earn from them, I have learned a few basic things on which the virtual world works on. I would like to share those with you here.

1. Don’t expect to become rich overnight. Online earnings happen slowly and take a lot of time and effort.

2. A few cents from several sites add up to a decent amount. So, invest in lot of genuine sites instead of just one or two. Your effort and time would build up a network that’s very important in converting the cents to dollars.

3. Your profile speaks volumes about you and your work. Invest time to build an enhancing profile. Be honest and modest. It pays off.

4. Stay away from scam sites. Most of the sites which ask you to pay first invariably are scam sites. The best opportunities are free sites unless you know someone who has got paid from the sites requiring upfront payment. If you are not sure, ask questions in the forums or amongst online friends.

5. Spend some time learning while you earn. Join forums which talk about your interests and your skills. There is always an opportunity out there with your specific skill set and interests.

6. Start with a few activities and gradually expand as time permits you. Be prepared to devote your time and effort.

7. Open a Paypal account, if you do not have one already. Some sites pay you directly by cheque, while most use payment gateways like Paypal. Another important account that you must have is Google Adsense. It helps you earn from your blog or other sites.

8. A lot of online earning opportunities involve networking. The more successful you are in online networking the more you likely to succeed in your earning endeavor.

9. If you are already part of a social networking site, make as many new friends who are active online as you can. Visit their blogs/sites/articles, leave comments and votes.

10. When you join a particular site which involves interaction with other members, make as many friends you can and comment/rate their articles.

11. There are sites which are ideal for promotion or drawing traffic to your articles/content. I strongly recommend Twitter which gets traffic to your websites. You can also consider sites like Digg, Mixx, stumbleupon, Youtube and Facebook.

12. Lastly, do not lose heart if you are not successful. Keep trying. It took me almost ten years to earn a modest amount from the internet. Perseverance does pay off.

Newbies should invest in Yahoo Answers for long term returns

Almost ten years back and a month after my employment, as I was browsing through the fun stuffs on the internet when I was directed to Yahoo Answers. What appeared to be a diversion soon became a habit. I was not finding anymore fun in the 'time waste' internet sessions and before I had abandoned everything else but Yahoo Answers. Soon, I realized that I had become an addict, but then that didn't bother me much since I got to imbibe a whole lot of information from the whole world in no time. I got to realize that the internet was beyond the chat rooms and the networking sites.

Ten years back, I started an affair and it has given me more returns than investment. A whole avenue of internet employment, that would not have been possible otherwise, is due to the time and love that I had devoted to Yahoo Answers.

So, if you are someone who is looking for a new avenue on the internet and who have no idea where to start from, this is just it. Open an account with yahoo and start playing with Yahoo Answers. It's simple, fun and trust me the time you would spend there would pay you back in the long run. Even though, there isn't any direct returns, invest your time on it and you will reach to various legitimate online earning opportunities.

The internet seems to provide a host of opportunities for those like us who are keen on earning online. However, it is only the hard way that we come across the genuine sites that really pay for our efforts.

This website is essentially a quick guide to beginners who want to earn online without having to spend hours of research and trial and error.
An important point that you must remember though.

Do not have the aspirations of trying to make it big overnight. Take the opportunities step by step and work on them.

If you have the time, then I would recommend a combination of sites, which involve clicking, interacting and writing. Another golden rule that you must keep in mind is - increase your network of people. Get people to join under your referrals and increase your interaction. Join where others recommend and they will join under you.

To start off with, I would recommend the combination of

1.PTC/ PTR sites

2. Networking with interaction from which you earn

3. Writing online, be it articles or creative writing.

4. Microtasking

Once you get the needed exposure and experience, you move on to

1. Writing Reviews

2. Blogging- Promoting your content and earning through advertising.

With this experience you will come across freelancing opportunities. There are various exchanges and sites, where you get to do assignments based on your expertise and experience.I'll cover these at a later point of time.

While doing all this, you can still do the things that you like be it netoking on social media sites and forums. The idea is to keep yourself active, for you never know where you will come across an idea for something new. It could even be a new business opportunity for you.

Wishing you all success.
