Sathyan's next with Sreenivasan

|
Sathyan Anthikkad who is enjoying the pleasant success of his new flick ‘Katha Thudarum’ will take a break from scriptwriting for his next movie. He will team up with his old friend Sreenivasan for another political satire based on the current situations of the state. Though Sreeni will be in charge of the scripting department, this movie will not have any similarity with the classic flick from the team ‘Sandhesham’.

While talking with the media at Kozhikode, Sathyan Anthikkad opined that the deserted cinema halls in Kerala are not due to the fault of the viewer. “The filmmakers instead has lost the capacity to judge the interests of the viewers, I make those kinds of films that I love to see as a viewer. That may be reason why my films makes satisfactory run at the Box Office”, says Sathyan.

Blog Fast Money

|
When we search internet to find some easy ways to monetize our blog, we find lots of stuff already written on this topic. And when we study deeply at all ways to earn money from a blog, there may be hundreds of ways to earn revenue from a blog. But not all methods are going to help you make some quick cash. In today's article, I will discuss some techniques that a blogger in any niche can follow to monetize his/her blogs quickly and fastly:

PPC Ads – With PPC (Pay per click) Ads, we are going to get paid for every click that is made of an Ad on our blog. There are many networks who are offering PPC Ads in all niches. And the most popular PPC Ad networks are Google Adsense and YPN (Yahoo Publisher network), which is available for US citizens only right now. Applying for Google Adsense will not take more than 2 minutes and once you have Google AdSense Account, you have to just place AdSense widgets on your blog where you want the ads to appear. AdSense ads are highly customizable and can be placed in any section of a blog. All PPC networks serve ads according to the content of your blog.

Text & Banner ads – Selling text and banner ads will be easiest way to monetize your blog if it's already popular. There are lots of advertisers who are willing to place their ads on top blogs in their niche. We can earn from $10 to $100 or so for a link/banner for a month on our blog depending upon our blog popularity, traffic, Alexa ranking and Google Page rank. We can add a section like 'Advertise here' or 'Banner' here on our blog to attract advertisers. With this, we can also try some networks that can sell text/banner ads on your behalf and will share revenue with us.

Writing Articles – With these options, we can make money with what we are already doing i.e. blogging. There may be many advertisers in your niche who will be interested in getting a review about their service or product on your blog. With this 'Get Paid to Blog' kind of scheme, we are asked to write a review about a product or service and include their links within our review. But we should be extra cautious when going for this scheme. We should write about advertisers only who are directly or indirectly related to our niche and if possible should include nofollow links in our paid posts. There are many paid blogging networks on internet where you can register yourself to get extra money making opportunities. Some of popular 'Get Paid to Blog' networks are Payperpost, ReviewMe and SponsoredReviews.

Creating Product Review

|
1) Does Your Title Create Excitement?
In order for someone to actually read your review, he/she has to find the title interesting. If you just put down, "my product review of XYZ" no one will care to notice. The title should be an attention grabber. At the same time, it shouldn't make exaggerated claims. One way of doing this is to phrase your title as a question. "Did I really lose weight using Bowflex revolution?" or pose a doubt, "Does Bowflex actually help burn fat or is it just a scam?" This appeals to a person's curiosity and begs for a click. Another way, is to make a statement. " I lose 50 pounds in 3 months using bowflex!" or "Bowflex helped me look young again!" whichever technique you use, however, keep it honest. Avoid using deceptive practices, as it will only tarnish your reputation in the long run.

2) Are you presenting an unbiased Review?
Buyers want to know the truth. They have tried countless e-books, get rich quick schemes, and money-making programs in the past, most of which ended in failure and shortcoming. As a result, they have become more skeptical. Your task as an affiliate marketer is to write an honest, informative, and complete product review. Include BOTH the pros and cons. The whole purpose is to help the buyer make a purchasing decision, by providing YOUR personal experience with the product. So, if you have not bought or used the product, there is no true way of doing this.

Most affiliate reviews on the Internet today are written like infomercials, selling hype rather than experiences. People know this. That's why they look to discussion forums and blogs for advice. If you want to sell affiliate products today, you have to first earn the trust and loyalty of your readers. The only way of doing this is keep your reviews honest. Share your experience, whether good or bad. Give the buyer a complete picture of the product. Don't make him/her feel that you are hiding something out. This keeps him coming back for more.

3) Do You Sound Authoritative and Approachable?
Your review should reflect a certain level of expertise. Offer advice or solutions in addition to product experience. Be opinionated. Include your credentials; honors, and past affiliate income, if any, at the end of the review. This answers the question, "why should I listen to you?" Let the buyer know that you are knowledgeable in Internet marketing. If he/she senses that you are a new affiliate with no IM skills, he/she may leave your website, in favor of more credible sources of information. In that case, take time out to learn internet marketing. The same applies to personality. Are you approachable? Can the buyer approach you, if he/she has a question? Are you easy to get a hold off? If not, take time out learn customer service.

4) Are You Creating Any Additional Value?
In other words, if the person decides to purchase the product, why should they buy it from you? What added benefit can you provide in addition to a product review. My suggestion is to give something valuable free. This could be an e-book, report, or a free consultation. If your website receives a lot of visitors, the product owner may even be willing to offer a special discount. The main idea here is to create additional value. This is called product bundling. The buyer should believe that he is getting more than just a review.

Alternate For Adsense

|
Google Adsense is a great tool that webmasters can use to make money with their website. They way it works is you copy and paste a code on to your web pages that Google supplies you with. Then google searches its database of ads and posts them to the web pages you put the code on. You get paid each time someone clicks on that ad. Google and the publisher split the revenue It is referred to as pay per click and is a great way to make money with a website.

However, google is no longer the only pay per click ad network that webmasters can use to make money from clicks of visitors on their site. Google was the first to come up with this method, but recently there has been a rise in ad networks like this. Many webmasters are switching to a different ad network and seeing surprising results. They are earning more money per click.

This is actually not surprising seeing that Google announced last year that it was cutting back the percentage publishers earned per click(translates to Google keeps more of the profit share). This results in publishers making less money since they only get paid when someone clicks. This is why you should take a look into some alternatives to Google adsense.

Here is a list of 5 alternatives to Adsense

1. Yahoo
2. Pepperjam
3. Adbrite
4. Adsmart
5. Chikita

Yahoo is probably the best out of those 5. Many people report that yahoo pays more per click than Google does which is not surprising. What sets Yahoo apart from other Google Adsense alternatives is that it has a large amount of advertisers. This means that a visitor is less likely to see the same ad on multiple pages. This ultimately leads to more clicks which leads to more money. The other small publishers may provide some great short term success because they pay a lot per click since they just got into the game and are looking to build up business.

Aside from making more money you might have a different reason for switching to a alternative. Google is notorious for shutting down people's for click fraud. When someone clicks on their own ads it is called click fraud. When Google things one is clicking their own ads they shut off their account and it is difficult or impossible to get your account back. The bad part about this policy is that often times a sites visitor repeatably clicks on ads to get that persons account shut off. If you experience this you will want to look for a Google Adsense alternative because getting your account reopened can be difficult.

Best Way To Make Money In Online

|
I often receive the question:

"What's the BEST method of making money online?" or "What's the best way to get to $X,000 per month online?"

If you're really looking to make money online and you're just getting started, it seems like a reasonable question - after all, you don't want to waste your time on something that's NOT the best method, do you? You want the best, fastest, easiest method to make the largest amount of money online possible.

If you've ever asked that question, let me give you an important piece of advice... There is no BEST way to make money online. There are SO many ways you can make money and build a business on the internet and they are all very different disciplines. If you're just getting into this stuff, you're going to be coming across a whole lot of these methods and all of them will be telling you they're the best... There's eBay, Pay Per Click Marketing, Affiliate Marketing, Writing Content, Surveys, Niche Marketing, Blogging, Article Marketing, Adsense, List Building, Product Creation, JV Partnerships, Ebooks and so many more.

So how does knowing this help you? It helps you because it lets you change your question from... "What's the best way to make money online?" to "What's the best way for ME to make money online?"

Already you're on a much better track. How do you know what's the best way for YOU to make money online? You need to know about yourself. Each of the methods above require specific skills, attitudes, and strategies, some of which you will be good at and enjoy, others you'll be terrible at and hate.

Here's an example:

Blogging is a great way to make money online. But to make money with blogging, you need to do a lot of writing. You need to write content, write articles to promote your site, write guest posts on other blogs, and more. If you aren't good at writing (and you don't have money to outsource) blogging may not be the best option for you to choose in making money online.

Pay Per Click marketing is a great way to make money online. But to make money with pay per click marketing, you have to spend alot of time researching affiliate programs, and setting up ads, with minimal contact with other people. If you're a people person, you're soon going to get bored and quit sabotaging your own success with this method.

The best thing to do as someone starting out in online marketing is get a SMALL sampling of many of the different methods available for making money online in search of one that really fits with you.

Then when you find something that you feel like you're good at and you enjoy (and here's the key)

You STICK WITH IT!

The only other mistake you can make than choosing the wrong method for you, is choosing the right method, and then changing your mind among the methods so many times that you never make any progress on any method!

But that's the subject of a whole new post.

Finally, here are some guidelines for finding what method could work best for you.
  • If you already have a great deal of knowledge in any particular field (I mean ANY field) you could be sitting on a million dollar information business.
  • If you're a great writer and love expressing your thoughts and knowledge, you could be the next super blogger and make a fortune.
  • If you love research, spotting opportunities, and "trading" (buying low selling high) you might find PPC marketing fun.
  • If you have existing experience with Ebay - you might find it easy to transition a hobby into a full Ebay business.
And of course there are many more.

By finding the method that is right for you, you increase your chance of success at making money online by 100% straight off the bat. It could take time. Some people take years to find what clicks with them online, but when you find it, it won't be long before you see the money flow.
