Make money online - Get Paid to click

Bux.to is a new innovative, international and FREE English based service that allows advertisers to reach thousands of potential customers by displaying their ad on our, "Surf Ads" page. A exact calculated percentage of all advertising revenue is paid to our members. Bux.to makes money via advertising, other advertising sources throughout the website as well as earning through direct sponsorship of other Bux.to members, just like a regular member does.

How do you make money?

You view websites in 30 second sessions via the "Surf Ads" page. Once the 30 seconds is up, you'll either get a green tick sign or a red 'X'. The green tick sign means you've earned $0.01 and as premium member $0.0125 for the visit and the 'X' means you have not earned money for the visit. After 24 hours you can click and view the website again. This gives the advertiser optimal exposure by using "repeat advertising" and it further increases the members earning potential.

Earnings example (based on current averages)

»You click 10 ads per day = $0.10
»20 referrals click 10 ads per day = $2.00
»Your daily earnings = $2.10
»Your weekly earnings = $14.70
»Your monthly earnings = $63.00

There are many ways of making money online. Some of them require you to invest some money before you actually earn several thousands a month. These involve Affiliate Marketing or Network Marketing. Others need you to have expertise in any specific subject/field to be able to "print Mr. green" online. A few best examples of these are "Submit Articles, Earn Money", "Submit videos/photos, Earn Money" and "Consultancy Services". As most of you viewing my blog are beginners, just like i am, i would suggest the easiest way of making money online. I just started this online-money-making business on 20 May 2008 and that was a week ago actually, but since i have done quite a lot of research on this hot topic, i've had quite a good start, earning 57.87 USD this first week. Well, some of you might think this amount is nothing, but for me 57.87 USD for just a few hours a week working online is quite a good start, while some beginners only earn 4 USD during their first few months. Remember that it's just the beginning and we can make this amount of money. Now, imagine that you get 100 visitors a day to your blog and 50 of them click, you get 5 USD a day on average. What if you have 1000 visitors a day? And, what if you have 10 blogs? I'm very optismistic about this opportunity. That's why i'm willing to share this with you. A lot of people have been successful with making money online but not many of them are willing to share this with you even it doesn't hurt their opportunity at all. It's a matter of "every man for himself." Let me take this opportunity to thank brother Grizzly Brears for his first very useful advice on this online-money-making stuff. He's one of the many successful people who earn their money online, with his average earning of 3000 USD a month just from one online-making-money program (the one I'm going to tell you about).

Until now, you might be having these questions in mind.

1. Do I need a well-organized web site?
2. Do I need to have products to sell on my web site?
3. Do I have to be a highly educated person or and IT expert to be able to make money online?

The answer is NO. You don't have to have all these things to be able to make money online. However, if you do have all these things, you can make even thousands of USD a DAY online!

Okay, let me start by asking you a few simple questions back.

1. Do you own a web page or blog?
2. What does your blog contain?
3. What kind of audience do you expect to view your page/blog?

The easiest and fastest way to make money online is from your blog. Create a specific blog with interesting content called "Niche". A niche is a very specific subject that attracts more and more traffic/visitors to your blog. After creating a blog with a good niche, you can now start making money with your blog with Google Adsense. Google Adsense is a Google's program which, upon the publishers' choice, but mostly pays the blog publishers on the basis of Costs-Per-Click (CPC). That means Google will display Ads on your blog and when visitors view your blog, find any ads attracting and click on the ads, you will get paid! That's it. Here is how:

Step 1

Create a blog with a good Niche. (If you don't know how to create a blog, click HERE to see a demontration video)

Step 2

Go to Technorati site and create an account to claim your blog. Why need to claim my blog there? Well, Technorati is one of Google's favorite indexing partner. If your blog is claimed by Technorati, you have high chance of getting indexed fast by Google. And, why need to be indexed by Google? Because Google can make your blog more popular and attract more visitors as most people use Google as their search engine. After you have your blog claimed, go to Ping in Technorati whenever you publish a new article or any content in your blog so that Google knows your blog is always alive.

Step 3

Go to Google Adsense and sign up an account there. You need your blog URL (address) to sign up. After you have signed up, wait for an approving e-mail from Google. Google then starts crawling to your site and view your content and if Google finds your content good for its ads (advertisements), you will be sent an e-mail confirming that you have been accepted to Google Adsense program.

Step 4

Okay, now sign into your blog. Then go to Layout --> Page elements --> Add page elements --> Add Google Adsense. After you add Google Adsense, you need to configure it to suit with the available space on your web page. Then choose the blend template because it makes your Google Ads look as if they were your articles too. Why choose blend template? Because most viewers tend not to click on ads if they know it's an advertisement. I don't know why either.

Step 5

Now that you have Google Ads on your blog, you can expect to earn money from clicks. But, where can you get those clicks? Well, that's not an easy task to complete, though. You might have your own techniques of making your blog popular. My own experience is that I send out personal e-mail and use Yahoo! answer . The first technique doesn't seem to work well since i don't want to bother most of my friends and family with my own business. But, if you're braver than me, do it. It might work better than when i did it. However, the second technique does work! I spend half and hour a day answering question in Yahoo! Answer and leave a link to my blog at the end of my answer. This way, I got many backlinks from Yahoo! And, that's how i get my blog indexed and more traffic.

Warning!

1. You must NOT write any words to prompt or encourage the viewers to click on any ads! Google will cancel your membership if you do so. You will only get paid if the visitors voluntarily and willingly click on Google ads.

2. Do not attempt to click your blog's ads by yourself or ask anyone to do so for you. Google has a sophisticated detecting system that can trace its members' activities on blogs and ads.

How much will you earn?

On average, Google pays you between 3 to 10 U.S cents per click. But, it depends on which ads the viewers click on. Some ads even pay you up to 75 USD per click. Yes, that's 75 USD per click!!! But, the thing is that we are not the one to decide which ads to place on our blog. It's Goolge's job to do so. To get higher paid clicks, concentrate on more hightly paid NICHE, about which you can read more HERE.This blog you are viewing is actually one of the lowest paid PPC (Pay-Per-Click) blogs. Then, why am I spending so much time with this blog? To share this opportunity with you is my major purpose of creating this blog.To learn more about Google Adsense Programs, click HERE.

Increase Your Adsense Earnings - 9 Factors Influencing Your Adsense Revenues

In order to make the most profit out of Adsense, you should be aware of 9 factors that affect Adsense payout.

1. How much traffic your site gets
2. How many pages on your site host AdSense ads
3. What the click thru rate from each page is
4. What the value of each click is
5. How many ads appear on each page
6. Where these ads are located
7. What format these ads are in - size, location, layout and color scheme
8. Google's fractional pay out rate
9. How much of your site's traffic is from new as opposed to repeat visitors

To maximise your site's profits from AdSense you ideally should optimize all these factors. However, one is entirely out of your control: Google's fractional payout rate. This is the percentage of the revenue that Google earns from a click that it passes on to you. However I'm going to cover all the ones you can influence here for you.

1. Getting more site traffic Getting more traffic is an art and a science. The best traffic is traffic that comes from search engines because it is free and because people who come to your site from a search engine are actively looking for things, they are not casually browsing around. They have a search mission in their head.

2. Increasing the number of pages that host AdSense ads This is easy. You just paste the code that Google gives you to activate AdSense into all the pages you want. Google lets you use a range of different formats for ads and you don't need to use the same format on every page. In fact you can change the color scheme, shape and size of the ads on each page.

3. Increasing the click thru rate from your page What you can't do is place big bold words around the ads saying "Click these ads to make me some money". In fact you are not allowed to say anything on your site that will actively encourage clicks. However, what you can do is write copy on your site that makes the products or services being advertised become more interesting to the reader.

4. Increasing the value per click (Read my previous post for more detail) The way to do this is to increase the quantity and quality of information on your site related to products and services that are of high commercial value on the internet. This is not as simple as thinking, for example, that jewellery is a high ticket item, therefore you should write a page about jewellery because not that much jewellery is sold online. You really need to spot high profit items that sell well over the internet because these are things that advertisers will pay a lot to advertise. If they pay a lot to advertise, the likelihood is that any related AdSense ads will come with a high click through price. What you can and should do is think laterally about what topics are related to your site that have a commercial value. You run a site about bird-watching, then host some travel pages about how to get to bird-watchers' paradise on a far away Pacific Island. These will probably show travel ads which will give you a reasonably good pay out - and just as importantly they will be relevant to your visitor and so will enhance the overall experience he / she gets from your site, so they'll come back again.

5. Optimising how many ads appear on your page Google now provides 6 different ad formats. One format allows you to post just a single ad on your site, one allows 5 ads and most allow 4 that read from right to left, or from top to bottom. Guess what? If you choose the format that shows up 5 ads, you will probably get more clicks than if you show 1. It is not necessarily true, but it usually is.

6. Optimising the location of the ads People tend to read from left to right and the eye is trained to do this early on in life (actually some people read the other way round but not English language readers.) They also read from top to bottom. This process lays emphasis on ads at the beginning and end of a page so don't place them in the middle, unless they blend them to look more or less like your written text. If your ads looks alike your text, readers tend not to put away their attention from the ads. In this case, it is more likely that they click on the ads either voluntarily or involuntarily.

7. Selecting the best format for these ads With a range of formats available, your first decision is to see which format will fit best into your existing website design. Google lets you choose a vast range of color options.

8. How much of your site's traffic is from new as opposed to repeat visitors People new to your site will be new to the ads on your site. Generally speaking, people often respond to ads once they've seen them a few times but if they don't at that stage, they probably never will. So your ideal traffic is people who visit your pages a few times. If your site gets endless repeat visitors you should expect your revenues to peak shortly after you implement AdSense and then decline over time - unless you take active steps to generate more traffic.
