Now that you have your list, it’s time to see what keyword phrase you can use. My advise is to not get too hung up on keywords/ keyphrases and the numbers in the software. I have known folks to have a profitable site using keyphrases that said there weren’t enough stats to report on.

My advise is to think like a consumer- what would you enter into the search engines in order to find products in your niche? Would you add words like discount, inexpensive, custom, etc? Then maybe that should be in your keyphrase.

I have tested one keyphrase in Market Samurai and came up w/ zilch- not enough searches, it said. I then went to eBay and looked for the product and found the sales did well there.

Think of how you research products. Do you enter different terms when just shopping around than when you are seriously going to make a purchase either on or offline? I know I do. When I’m ready to buy, I enter very specific terms.

Also keep in mind with keywords and ranking in the search engines- which is more important- being #1 on Google or having more sales??? Being #1 doesn’t necessarily lead to more sales.

SEO vs Marketing- the difference??

SEO =  Becoming #1 on Google
Marketing= More potential customers

This video is lengthy (42 mins long), but there are some important things to consider when being findable with keywords. Heather Lutze explains findability through keywords. If you don’t have time to watch it in full, at least watch part of it.

You want your domain and keywords to be as specific as necessary. Your Findability Marketing strategy should be highly targeted campaigns using more highly targeted keyphrases.

For example say you train dogs, you may use the micro-niche of either a breed or maybe training puppies or older dogs, or Service Dogs. Your campaigns would then reflect this niche, but each campaign would target a certain issue.

Say your niche is Homemade Fudge Recipes, your marketing campaigns might be:

• Favorite Homemade Peanut butter and Chocolate Fudge recipes.
• best Homemade Fudge with nuts recipes
• Sugar Free Fudge recipes for diabetics.  etc

You also have to see if your niche will be profitable. Check Amazon, eBay, ClickBank and do  a search on your niche. See what products they have available and if possible how well they are selling.

With eBay, you can do a “completed auction” search. You will need to log in before accessing the results. The results will show you whether they sold or not and for how much, when they sold. eBay is great for studying buying habits.

Once you have your keywords and keyphrases , then you can keep them in mind for your website, if you’re going to have one and your marketing campaigns.

Next step is decide whether you want to make this a business or just add to your income.Obviously the amount of work and commitment is different for each

To make serious money, enough to replace an income, will require more work- upfront anyway. You should also have your own domain, hosting account for your website, and autoresponder. All this can be done for under $20. The domain is approx $10 a year (price depends on the extension) Hosting is between $5-$10/mo. And I’ll show you where to get an autoresponder for free in an upcoming post.

An autoresponder is a program that automatically sends emails to a list of people that sign up or opt-into a group list to receive information. They are often used as marketing tools, that immediately provide information, news, discounts, promotions to their prospective customers and then follow-up with them at preset time intervals. So you can build a list of people that will buy from you over and over again.

Whether you decide to make this a business or not, you still need to be found on the Internet. Your own website is only one way, but for a business owner, it adds credibility. Many of the Marketing strategies will be the same or very similar.

This week, decide on whether you want to run a business or just make some extra cash. Think about how much time you want to invest.

Next post we’ll go over choosing a domain, hosting for those who decide to take that route. We’ll also look for products to sell or promote.

STEP #1 is STOP BUYING THOSE “MUST HAVE” “MAKE 7 FIGURES IN 28 DAYS” PROGRAMS!!!! Stop making THEM rich! Yep- some ones’s making money with them and it’s most likely not you.

Everything you need to know is available for free somewhere online, if you want to spend the time to look for it, or join 1 site that teaches it live in webinar format, where you can get immediate answers and help.

Where do you start? Do you merely want to make some extra money online or do you want to start an actual business or expand an existing  brick or mortar one? The line between just making money online and starting an online business can become blurry at times.

While you can build Adsense sites and sell Affiliate products, it can eventually turn into a business. The other way around is true too, you can do Free Lance work and only do the odd job from time to time and be happy with the occasional extra income.

This series will cover both. The process is pretty much the same, whether you are going to promote affiliate products or a product or service of your own.

Some experts say have a niche  and some say Keyword Research. You kind of have to do both at the same time. How can you do keyword research if you don’t have a niche in mind?  On the other hand the niche you choose needs to be profitable for you.

It’s best to research several. If you’re just starting out, start with with topics that interest you- either something you’re knowledgeable or experienced in or one that you would like to know more about.

Of course you can choose niches that are popular and hot at the moment if you want, but choosing something that you have an interest in will make the learning curve seem shorter and you’ll be more likely to stick with it and see it through.

This session, I want you to make a list of at least 10 niches, actually sub-niches, which is a more narrowed down niche.

Start with your favorite hobbies & pastimes.What topics could you imagine speaking or writing on and on about?

Next think of what you have experience in-

• what jobs have you had
• what kinds of things have you done in your life- raise children, organize events, care for relatives, overcome some addiction, tragedy, illness, etc.

Then what things would you like to know more about? By now I’m sure that you can gather a huge list of possible niches.

Now, make that list, refine it, narrow it down to 10 or 20. Then pick your keywords. You can use a keyword suggestion tool, or to start, just write down what you would type into the search engines to find info or products in that niche.

When I started out, I signed up for a free trial to Market Samurai, which gives you all kinds of great info on any particular niche. Unless you’re making money, you don’t have to purchase the program. I firmly believe that you shouldn’t spend money (or spend an absolute minimum) unless or until you are making money. There are TON’S of free programs and tools available so you don’t need to spend money in the beginning.

Resources -

Market Samurai -  Even aft your free trial is over, you can still use the program for keyword research, but you lose most of the other features.

SEO Chat -  Has a bunch of free tools and several Keyword Tools.

The Challenge – is an annual free event. The Challenge is the new format of The 30 Day Challenge, with ed Dale and Dan Raine. There is no registration needed to participate.

The challenge Team Blog – is where you can get more  tips and share your experiences, successes and pitfalls with others. we encourage everyone to register at the blog, so that you can write your own posts either sharing your experiences, or maybe add some useful  tips to help others.

*** You do not have to be participating in the Challenge in order to write posts for the blog- all that is required is that the topic be relational to those on the blog and that you don’t just post to spam links. Any non-relevent posts or spammy posts will be deleted. You CAN place a link or 2 to your site, including affiliate links, in your resource box.

Well, Christmas is over and a new year is about to begin. Now is a great time to get ready for 2011, if you haven't done so already. A great Business Owner's New Year's Resolution is to strive to be more organized this coming year. Have your short and long term goals planned out. Analyze how your business is doing- what has been working and what hasn't. What can you change? Maybe you're not marketing effectively, or not at all. The build it and they will come mentality doesn't work in the world of Online Business, anymore. You practically have to scream out to the world that if you want the best _____, then come on down! You do not have to be an SEO expert or spend tons of money hiring an SEO company, you just have to be just do something to make you stand out from the rest and do something your competitors aren't. It could be that they do not have their keywords in their domains, title, or description. Maybe they have junk backlinks rather than quality ones. Starting in Jan, we'll be covering business and marketing strategies to get your business back on track and some information and training to help those wishing to start an online business- build a solid foundation and some advanced training for those with established businesses. One issue I hear over and over again from folks all over is that they attend a class or training, they think they understand- that is until they try it for themselves and for some reason, things don't work like they did in class. It could be that you did a step incorrectly, an issue with the server, or a script error. Next week or class will be a new topic and now you find yourself getting more and more behind. The other issue I hear a lot about is "Information Overload". Instructors sometimes throw out more information  than their students can absorb and put to good use. To combat this common problem, we're planing some on-going events and truly hands-on courses, where we will present the techniques in one session and have a second session later in the week where we will actually help you apply them to your site or business. We want to give you a couple days to try it on your own if you wish and attend the second session to get help wherever you need it. I believe that we can learn from each other and watching your peers go through it step by step somehow helps increase our comprehension of the task. This second weekly session is all about YOU and YOUR business, so bring your questions and challenges so that we can work them out together. My thoughts were to start a special group for those just starting out and do these trainings as a year long progression . Starting w/getting started. Most topics will change monthly. There may be a few that will take less time and a couple that may require more time. The group will be structured more like a MasterMind Group. By the year's end you will have developed a solid foundation to further build upon. I am hoping that the group will continue together for a long time forming a tightly knit MasterMind Group. Since no one can know everything, I plan on having guests who are experts in their fields whenever possible. Please enter your thoughts about this below. I really want your input on this.

Are you curious about making your own videos to upload to YouTube and to share with the remainder of the internet community? If you are and if this is your first time trying to accomplish so, you could be questioning how you can go about creating your own videos. Although the process of producing a YouTube video may seem like a intricate one, it isn\’t necessarily. Even those with a low sum of computer know-how are in a position to successfully make their own videos, many of which later end up on YouTube.

The first step in making a YouTube video is to get a video device. Video devices come in a a few different formats. For example, it is achievable to use cellular phones, webcams, or [traditional conventional] camcorders. If you are interested in utilizing your cellphone to help you create a YouTube video, you will have to make certain that your cell phone has video capabilities. You will see that most new, modern cell phones do. For the greatest quality videos, you would like to use [traditional conventional] camcorders, particularly digital ones, but webcams are also nice affordable alternatives.

Once you have a video device in your possession, you can start to produce your own videos. Popular videos on YouTube include video blogs, comedy skits, how-to videos, or travel videos. You can make just about whatever sort of video you need, whether it is one that is staged or just recording hasty pursuits or conversations. When creating a YouTube video, it is significant to understand that YouTube doesn\’t limit the amount of videos you can submit, but all videos must be ten minutes or less, if you have a conventional YouTube membership account. As a consequence, if you want to have videos be longer than ten minutes, you either need to upgrade your account or make your videos in different segments.

When creating your YouTube video, you will want to ensure that the quality is good. For this, it is worthwhile to speak directly into the camera or else use raised voices. This will help to make sure that those watching your videos on YouTube can in reality know what you are saying. It is in addition advised that you ensure the illumination is good. The optimum time to make movies is throughout the day. If you would like to make your movies at night, whether they take place inside or outdoors, you will need to make certain that you have the correct sum of lighting. Few things are worse that watching a video that is hard to see.

Although there are a number of steps, like the ones cited above, that you can take to make sure that your YouTube videos are quality ones, there is a way that you can fix problems later on. You can do this with movie editing software. Moving editing software permits you to preview and edit your videos, should you wish to do so before uploading them to YouTube. If you\’ve a relatively new computer, you ought to be able to find movie editing software already on your computer. If you are unable to find movie editing software, you should be able to get free software programs or even purchase elegant software programs online or from one of your local media stores.

The decision as to if you want to edit your videos, before sharing them on YouTube, is yours to make, but it is recommended that you at least look into doing so, in particular when your PC already has a movie editing program. You will want to watch your movies and see if there\’s anything that you want to edit, change, or remove. If so, the time to do it is before you post your video on the YouTube website. Editing your YouTube videos or at the very least previewing them first is likely to improve their quality, which, successively, will help to improve the exposure that your YouTube videos get. Many YouTube members share videos that they find fascinating with those that they know and your videos might be one of them.

Perhaps that statement above should be able to convince anyone to start selling software either as a full time job or on the side. It is essentially not just something many desire; it is needed. Evidence of this can be seen in the harsh economic downturn that is currently encompassing the globe. Last year security software (anti-virus, anti-spyware, etc) rose by 18.6%. It is surely one of the few industries that are still seeing a rise in profits when almost every other niche is setting its sights and expectations lower to accommodate the economic situation.

John W Tukey coined the idiom software back in 1958 when computers, as we know them today, were still a scientists dream. In essence, for those who do not know, your computer can be divided into two sections software and hardware. Hardware refers to the actual physical components on your computer RAM, had drive, monitor, graphics card and so on. Software is all the programs installed on your computer Word, Internet Explorer, Firefox, Media Player and so on and so forth. Software can again be split into many different categories Operating systems, office tools, anti-virus etc but the purpose of this article is not to list the various forms that software can take. Instead its purpose is to look at the software market and analyze its potential.

Last year the online portion of software sales was around $30 billion and its potential to expand, grow and develop doesn’t look like being curbed anytime soon. The key to the software market is either marketing or selling a piece of software that is useful. It should be functional and accessible to the user. Let us put this in perspective. As it has already been mentioned the anti-virus market rose by nearly 19% last year (2008). Millions of people daily are contracting viruses and spyware and adware and applications harmful to their system every day. If you’ve ever been unfortunate enough to experience this then you will know how annoying these viruses can be. Therefore they are willing to pay for software to scan their system and wipe any traces of the viruses. The fact that many pieces of spyware and adware are designed to steal your personal details give an extra incentive.

No compare this to a piece of software that, let’s say, changes your desktop background every 10 minutes. Which do you think will sell more? Just because the software market is vast and expanding rapidly doesn’t mean that everything will sell, you have to know the proper way of going about it. Which software is in demand, marketing techniques and digitized software over hard copy are all things that need to be fully understood before you enter the market.

Now for even better news. There’s a free report available that will give you step by step information on how to get started today. So, if you have the desire and ambition to make money on the internet you should look no further. With a positive attitude and the willingness to learn you can be on your way to supplementing your income or starting a new lucrative career for yourself.

Software sales do not look like declining anytime soon so it is advisable to get in while the going is good and start selling the product that every person with a computer needs.

Ever since Google launched their AdWords and AdSense services, they took the world of online advertising by storm. Now, Pay Per Click (PPC) advertising is here to stay and it only makes sense that you learn a little bit about it so that you can then decide for yourself whether or not you want to get into it further!

The Google AdWords system is quite easy to set up: Your Google PPC account allows you to pick specific keywords to bid on, and then will only display\’s your ad for those specific keywords that you picked. Your ads will show up in the search results and people who are interested in what you have to sell will click on them and go to your website.

On the flipside, if you’re actually able to master PPC advertising, you\’ll find that there\’s a whole bunch of options available that will allow you to automate pretty much every aspect of your traffic generation, and free up more time with which you can pursue other endeavors.

The bottom line, getting into Google PPC advertising without getting the proper training can be very difficult and down right dangerous. The best thing you can do before actually starting your first Google AdWords campaign is to get proper training.

If you want to you can jump right in, but if you do you better be willing and able to handle the first few weeks or months of losses until you get the hang of PPC advertising.

When you\’ve mastered Google AdWords and have it at your beckon call, you have the power of guarantee targeted exposure for any website you want to make money online with.

Try to remember that while it might be a sacrifice now, and you might not want to spend any money learning how to use PPC advertising, it is in your best interest to invest the money and time in yourself to learn Google Advertising from an expert.
