Money My Web Update

Money My Web — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 22:18:00 GMT

As of today the Money My Web Blog will not be updated and further. Sadly the blog platform from godaddy.com was not able to meet the goals of this blog. As a result I started a new blog at www.vendingmatic.info with a Wordpress theme. The Wordpress platform allowed me to create the blog as I had wanted from the start. In the last few weeks I have moved some posts from here to the new site. The change has been smooth and I very happy with the way google and the other search engines picked up the site. As for this site I might add a post here and there for anyone who happens to stumble upon. Well now I hope that our loyal readers will follow to the new site. Please drop by and let me know what you think.

Money My Web — Thu, 16 Oct 2008 19:31:00 GMT

If you have a web site or blog and want to earn any type of real money you must gain knowledge. As for some of the sites that I have started over the years a few made money other did not. What you do learn online is that getting as much information as possible will make the difference. Sometimes you can get free tips and tricks by reading web site site like this. There is only so much that can be explained in a blog format which tends to give a general overview of a topic. There are some great detailed sites on only one topic which are also great finds. The other way to get new ideas and 100% proven methods is to buy professional ebooks. The writers of the ebooks are sharing their knowledge and trial and error that has led them to success. You might find some ebooks are prices high, but then again would you go to a cheap mechanic for your sports car. You pay for what you get. If you are not sure about the ebook being offered contact the writer and ask some questions or try a google search for reviews. Once you have found a good ebook then take the plunge. In this business you need information and all ideas will help you earn money. If you need a good program to get you started Super Affiliates are a great choice. These guys can show you how to maximize your profits and turn six figures. I was very impressed with their knowledge and the ideas that they introduced to me in their program.

Backlinks

Money My Web — Thu, 16 Oct 2008 19:21:00 GMT

What is a backlink? The use of backlinks increase your page rank in search engines like google. When you get a referring link back to your web site it helps increase your spot on google or other search engines. A simple way to get a backling is to join a social bookmarking site like www.mister-wong.com since these sites get index often. The google robots will find your site and index it from the social bookmark site. This is one way to drive traffic to your site. If you update your site then try creating backlinks to new content. This simple method helped me get one of my low preforming sites into a top spot on google. Try using a few site to bookmark your test sites and see what happens. You can check your sites traffic analyzer to get a better idea of the new numbers.

Money My Web — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 04:32:00 GMT

In recent interviews Warren Buffet has show little concern for the economy. With many safe guards in place and time most investments will stabilize in a few years. The market has created opportunity and lowered the price for some great investments. With wide scale panic pro investors like Warren Buffet and Prince Alwaleed have scooped some great bargains. If you play the market like these investors you will see over time investments grow and prosper. If you can find Warren Buffets interview with Charlie Rose some insight into the recent market trouble might make sense and improve your investment skills for these troubled times.

Make Money Taking Surveys Online

Money My Web — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 21:27:00 GMT

About 2 years ago I started taking surveys online. In most cases I was not getting paid because I did not match the profile that the research company wanted for their survey. Then I joined a few other programs and started to see some results. I was amazed at how simple it was to make money online just responding to surveys that take about 20 to 40 minutes of my time. With a small investment this became another source of making money online and reaching my financial goals. If you want to learn more here is a link to a video that explains this hidden gem better then I can.

Free Gas for Your Car

Money My Web — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 05:23:00 GMT

I am not sure how this fits in with my making money on the web site, but saving money on gas is on everyone's mind. With the economy going the way it's going and such high gas prices I looked into alternative fuels. What if you could drive your car on water? Well it seem that it is possible to do so. There is a company that has a system to convert a regular car into one that runs on water. I do not know all the details, but I added a lin for you to find out more. If anyone is running on water or converts to this system please leave a comment I am sure we all want to know how it went.

Classified Ad's

Money My Web — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 04:27:00 GMT

A few years ago there was an infomercial for placing classified ad's in local papers and making money. A friend of mine order this program, but failed to make his millions. It was not that this method of advertising did not work, it was the products. With the internet it is now possible to rework this idea. Many newspapers offer a free ad to any one selling general merchandise for under $50.00 why not take advantage of this offer. If you have a web site list a product that you sell in the classified section. You will need a phone number for people to call as email and web site address are not allowed in free ad's in most newspapers. Once the ad is running people will call the number you advertised, here is where the internet comes in. Since you want people to visit your website, let them know in a voice message that your item can be seen online at www.yoursite.com and that they can order it direct from the site. If you get a good response rate you will get a few extra sales using this method. Last month I tried this with one of my products and I ended up with 7 sales I would have never had is I ddi not try this method. If you need a cheap phone number with voice mail pick up a pay as you cell phone and just use it for your classified listing.

Podcast Advertising

Money My Web — Tue, 30 Sep 2008 04:27:00 GMT

The popularity of the ipod has created a new form of media called podcasting. With the power to broadcast for a low cost to millions, podcasts have become big business. At first only a few geeks were putting out podcast, but now even big companies have gotten in on the action. The small business owner can also benefit from the low cost to enter. If you have a product or service to promote you can create a podcast related to your business. This is a great way to build brand awareness and provide customers a branded message. You can also advertise on other peoples podcast and there are a few companies that can help you start a campaign. With one of my sites I am looking into using this new form of advertising. I am in the process of getting the prices and details for my first go. Since I can track users by coupon codes I will be able to measure the success rate of my advertising. When the ad's have been running for a few weeks I will post the results on this blog.

Diddy

Money My Web — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 03:40:00 GMT

A few days ago I was watching the new show from P. Diddy or just Diddy whatever he goes by now. The show which is a rip off of The Apprentice brought out an interesting use of the internet by Diddy. It seems he is into making viral videos and is constantly making new videos. The use of viral videos is great way to create brand awareness. Everytime someone watches one of his videos on youtube or on Diddy's web site that is free advertising. A few weeks ago the tabloid shows picked up one of the videos when Diddy went on a rant about gas prices for his private jet. If you sell online or even for off line selling viral videos create a buzz that can bring extra business. It is well worth buying a little web camcorder and learning how to make videos to place on youtube. The best use on youtube are by those who do reviews of a product and then provide a link to their web site. If you type in review click on a few videos and see what others are promoting. As for the new Diddy show it's alright you might learn a few things here and there so it is well worth watching.

I found this new web site to help you make money online. The iletyou web site let's you start a rental store online for a very low cost. It's like having your own Blockbuster store. All you need to do is sign up and then you start renting out your old DVD's games or CD's very quick and simple.

Check it out and start making money online.

Using Google Adwords

Money My Web — Fri, 12 Sep 2008 17:40:00 GMT

For anyone trying to sell a product or service online, you must understand search advertising. The most popular program is adwords from google. With their program you pay per click to advertise your product or service through googles vast sites and partners. Many web sites have seen great results from using this type of advertising. With some of the sites I run I have used adwords to promote my sites, even this blog is promoted with adwords. In the last few days I tried yahoo and microsofts search advertising for a new site I started up. No results yet to measure the power of the other serach sites. What I would like to know is how to use these programs more efecctivley. If anyone out there knows and tips to get better results please share.

With one of my sites that sells products I might try shopzilla which works the same as the google adwords program, but instead adds your product to a search result for people who are comparison shopping. I will post my result for shopzilla once I do somemore research and sign up for an account.

Buying a new HDTV watch for package marketing

Money My Web — Sat, 30 Aug 2008 18:07:00 GMT

A few days ago I watched a Canadian television show called market place. They did a report on how stores add expensive cables to the purchase of a new HDTV. The cable are called HDMI and are offered by the sales person, who in most cases leads you to believe that your new TV will not work well without cables that cost $200.00 or more. The most famous brand would be the Monster Cables. The questions is do you need these cables? The CBC network that aired the show had the expensive cables tested at their head office against a cable that cost $12.00 online. I know that there is room for debate, but if the CBC which broadcasts in HD and has so many years of television experience test a cable I do have faith in them. The result was that the expensive cables performed exactly the same as the $12.00 no name brand cable bought online. If you are in the market for a HDTV stay away from the expensive cables you do not need to spend the extra money, unless you are rich and want to brag that you spent $200 on a cable. The same is true with USB printer cables (which I bought for $1.00 at the dollar store) if bought with a new printer, stores charge about $25.00 for the cable. I have not had any problems with my dollar store USB cable in 3 years since I go the printer. I also have bought a S-Video cable from the dollar store and it has worked will with my DVD player and TV. If you are going to buy cables I recommend that you do some research before you buy. Also do not believe the sales person the cables are just an extra sale for them that provides some extra commission.

Why do big companies cut jobs?

Money My Web — Mon, 18 Aug 2008 21:12:00 GMT

The other day I read about a big company cutting jobs and I started to look at some figures and it did not look right. I started to think that maybe big business use this as an excuse to fire employees that management might not like. This way they clean up the work force and it does not look as bad and employees will not fight back, or be to upset when they see a large number of co-workers were also let go. If anyone is in HR can support this idea please let us know in the comments.

Don't Google Ask Instead

Money My Web — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 19:49:00 GMT

The most popular search engine is no doubt Google, but there are other search engines that are great alternatives. If you want to try a great search engine visit www.ask.com I almost forgot about this site. The ask.com site has been around for awhile now, but got lost in the search arena. The site features a clean look like Google and on ask.com you can see the page in a thumb picture before you click in the link. I like this preview feature it save time form going to sites with the wrong information that I am looking for. The only thing I could not find on ask.com was a submit button to add my blog to their engine. If someone know how to submit to them please let me know.

Doing Business on The Go

Money My Web — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 19:10:00 GMT

In a few weeks I am taking a road trip. The total travel time is about 17hours and I have set a goal to find business ideas and items to resell along my travel. My goal is to make $300 from just coming across items to sell online. This week I am looking for places to stop where I might find some treasures. When I find an item to sell I would also like to list it online right away.

The tools that I will be using are my trusty Asus EEEPC a Niko Digital Camera and my new found love my P168 cell phone (That happens to look like and iphone). If I know I will be staying long enough in one place I will try the local craigslist and see if I can sell stuff as I go along. In order to get results I am trying to do research for the different cities I will drive through. At the end of the trip I will post pictures of some of the items I found and any selling results. All I want is for this experiment to pay for my gas.

Using Ioffer Selling Online with Low Fee's

Money My Web — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 14:36:00 GMT

As we all know eBay is the biggest online marketplace, but that does not mean that there are not other great sites to sell online. The ioffer site is the next best thing to selling on eBay. With many active users ioffer has found the middle ground between eBay and Amazon.com. There are no listing fee's to sell on ioffer, you just pay the commission on items that you have sold. Setting up is very easy and ioffer even let's you have a free store. If you want to test the waters and want to save money on fee's list on ioffer. The sales do not come as quick as with eBay, but then again you profit margin is higher.
When I have a certain item that I have more then 10 I list it on ioffer and forget about it until it sells. The site has an international reach which it great. The last few years has seen ioffer make some great changes and making their site one of the top auction site on the internet. If you want to get a feel for ioffer try buying a few items and getting some feedback.

Obama Barack

Money My Web — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 05:16:00 GMT

As a Canadian I have been following the elections in the US. The truth is many of the business I have or plan on starting depend on a strong US economy. Anyone who sells online know that not to target US customers would be a huge mistake. With the current economy it is very important to study US trends and the elections impact on the global economy. Since I do not know to much about Obama Barack I ordered his book on itunes to listen while I work. It provides a glimp as to how this man might be as President of the Worlds most powerful nation. I enjoyed listening to this audio book and am trying to find one on McCain to form an educated opinion of the elections.

Vending Machine Business

Money My Web — Sun, 27 Jul 2008 23:04:00 GMT

This idea has been in my head for awhile. The vending machine business makes million of dollars each year. In order to start your own vending machine business you need to decided what you would like to sell. There are machines that sell everything from snack pop candy to jeans. Once you figure out which item is right for you then it's a matter of buying a machine either new or used. Once you have a machine you need to get a location. There are many web sites that can help you find great locations. There are also a few books about the vending machine business. At this stage I am just thinking of getting into this type of business. Once I have some ideas and numbers I will start looking for a machine. I did find a few good deals on machines on ebay.

Make Money Online Sell your Used DVD's and CD's

Money My Web — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 04:15:00 GMT

If you are like me you might be sitting on a stack of DVD's and CD's that you do not need. The other day I was cleaning up my spare room and found a stack of DVD's that I no longer need. In the past I would have saved these CD's and DVD's for yard sales or eBay. This time around I though I would try secondspin.com since you can sell your old collection to them. It worked out well for me and I might buy some new DVD's with my new found money.

Iphone Clones

Money My Web — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 20:22:00 GMT

The Iphone has been such a big hit that there are now many clones to compare to the real phone. The big cell phone manufacturers have also made touch screen clones like LG Samsung and HTC. The phoes from the known companies look a little different then the iphone and run their own software. The clones from China look like an iphone and some even have the Apple logo on the phone. The software on the clone phones also looks like the real iphone most icons were copied. Well the clones do compare rather well to the iphone only missing a few features. The biggest feature not found in the clones is Safari web browser. The clones use a wap browser and you can not get a full html page to show up. The clones also lack the app store and itunes. The clones that I have done research on do not allow for more software to be installed. The other features of the clone phones like mp3 and video are done very well, you can even turn the phone around and the moive goes full screen like on the real iphone. Overall as an everyday unlocked world cell phone the clones are very good at what they do. If you are looking for a more function and need a real web browser then these are not for you. With my iphone clone I find it has most of the features I need in a cell phone. It would be nice to have a real iphone, but for now it would be on more bill I do not need. If you are thinking of getting an iphone clone then look around on ebay there are some great prices for these phones.

Starbucks Stock

Money My Web — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 04:54:00 GMT

Today I bought some Starbucks stock. The market has been hitting Starbucks very hard over the last few months. In picking this stock I looked at McDonald's and how they were doing a few years ago and how the stock is performing now. The Starbucks brand is known all over the world and is growing. The North American market might be slowing down for growth, but this is one company that can do very well in markets all over the world. As the company closes 600 stores in the US they are still building stores in other countries. With time this stock is a winner and will go back to a range between $20-25 in the next 18 months. The outlook for the company is good and they can survive the next few quarters of change. With this stock there is no point in check the stock ticker everyday, I will try to checking it at least once a week and see where it is at.
