google vs text link ads
2007-10-11 12:11:00
I use the title in the sense that I now must choose. They are not directly competing of course. However the two companies have terms and conditions / policies that now conflict with each other. For all of us web site owners who get traffic from google and also use TLA we are now in a quandary. Google is now lowering the rank, traffic, etc. of sites that it determines use text links as advertisements without the re="nofollow" attribute. This is due to those links skewing the search engines ability to properly determine a sites ranking, and how much rank to pass on to other sites it links to. Makes sense. Right now they are manually identifying those sites. [More]

Text Link Ads - Final Results with Poor ROI
2007-10-05 08:18:08
It has now been a month since I purchased a Text Link Ads from 2 websites, for testing purposes. To me I do not think it was worth the purchase. I only purchased 2 TLA from pretty favorable websites. I wanted to see for the month of September if anything increased, RSS, Loyal Readers, Income, etc. To my surprise nothing, I have gained some income maybe a little growth in RSS but nothing substantial. So here are some stats below, a screenshot of a months worth data by Google Analytics. This should be a good read for others wanting to buy or purchase blog real estate. I know I am writing this and I am contradicting myself here, since I am selling some of my blog space for text link ads spots. Popular blogs make income that way and I will want to proceed in doing the same. But my results may differ from others and if so let me know. I know mine was not that great, I received more traffic from search engines and other blogs that linked to me than a direct purchase link. The two websites I

Text Link Ads Moving Away from TinyUrl: WTF!
2007-08-27 17:00:51
I was just informed by a fellow reader by the name of Yehuda Berlinger about Text Links Ads are doing away from TinyUrl. Yehuda has left a comment on my post about the response I received from TLA. She says TLA is working on a better solution and we do not have to change our affiliate links! This is causing so much confusion among bloggers. It has caused some confusion to me as well that I decided to confirm this as well. I emailed Brock again and asked if this is so. He stated it is, saying it was released late last week. Here is my email and Brock’s response: Ian, sorry this was just released late last week. Jonathan is correct.

Text Link Ads Adjust Affiliate Links: Give Me My Affiliate Link!
2007-08-24 10:51:06
Yesterday, I got an email about TLA and how they are adjusting the affiliate code with tinyurl. Wait, isn’t tinyurl.com a link shrinker? an affiliate cloaker? Why is TLA using tinyurl as our new affiliate link? This does not make sense; they state my affiliate link will not work after a week. Why NOT? TinyUrl.com is just a link shrinker cloaker! I just want my affiliate link as I use my own cloaking tools and database on my blog. So I do not find it useful to use tinyurl. What is TinyURL: A tool which creates a tiny URL that will not break in email postings and never expires. It hides the actual link if you don’t want people to know what the URL is because it might give away that it’s an affiliate link. You can enter a URL into TinyURL, and your affiliate link will be hidden from the visitor, only the tinyurl.com address and the ending address will be visible to your visitors. Its a simply redirection script. There Terms of Use: TinyURL was created as a free service t

Text Link Ads, Are they Worth the Purchase?
2007-08-23 10:35:26
In the world of blogging, publishers want to purchase some of your blog space for traffic and more exposure. Well I just recently purchased 2 Text Link Ads from 2 popular blogs - half of my Alexa rankings that is. I want to see if it gives my website a boost in traffic. Is it really worth purchasing and spending X amount of money on a TLA to just get X amount of traffic? Well, this is day one of my case study of TLA exposure. I will not reveal the websites I purchased from as I want natural traffic coming from their websites or blogs. First of all What is TLA?

Text Link Ads Review of Text Link Ads For The Beginner
2007-08-18 10:07:41
Text Link Ads a great way to monetize your website or to improve your websites’ traffic and search engine ranking. If you own a website or blog where you earn money through advertising, Text Link Ads provides a consistent income which can help subsidize your cost per click advertising or your banner advertising. Basically you quickly sign up with Text Link Ads (free) and they give you a code which you place on your website. They will then list your website in a directory for prospective link buyers from websites looking to increase their traffic. The value of your link is based on the level of traffic going to your site as well as your google page ranking. You can have as many as 8 links sold on your website or 6 links sold on any of your rss feeds. Your links are assigned a value (mine are between $20 to $40) which a webmaster would pay per month for those ads. Text Link Ads takes 50% thus leaving me with a potential monthly income of $80-160 which is great consistant payment

I love opening up my mailbox in the mornings these days... it brings me smiles except for one morning but well, that is history. They say, 'don't look back, just move forward'!This morning, I am greeted by another nice surprise from Text Link Ads - I got another Text Link Ads sold in my home office women! Last night, I had two sold - one in HOW and the other in Doris Goes Shopping. That is not it. I had 4 accepted bids from Sponsored Reviews!! I like Sponsored Reviews as I get to choose who I like to write for and I'm beginning to enjoy the bidding process. What's nice is I only pay a 35% commission and not 50%. Besides, most of the advertisers have quality websites to be reviewed. The other day, I had an offer from an advertiser for Live Life: Organics and Your Health - I was delighted! What a fantastic platform it is to connect bloggers with advertisers - in a fair and professional way! Yesterday morning, I got another Link Post from LinkWo

Five Requirements of a Good Affiliate Program

Until you develop your own products, you will probably use affiliate products to make money on the Internet. Most people start out that way. Many of them are extremely successful. But there is a lot of confusion when just starting out with affiliate products.


Many people ask, which affiliate product is the most profitable? There is no clear-cut answer to this. If your site is about birds, you would probably generate very few sales selling discount TV's. You will maximize your sales if you sell products in a niche related to your website. If you built your list using articles about birds, your subscribers are probably interested in birdhouses, bird feeders, and bird baths.



You would certainly do best by selling bird related products.


How do you select which programs are the best? There are tens of thousands of affiliate products, which ones are right for you? You can narrow down the search by using the five steps below:


1) Make sure there is a demand for the product. Visit Wordtracker to determine the number of searches for a particular item. You can offer the best buggy whip in the world, but that doesn't make it a profitable item to sell.


2) Try to contact someone at the company. See if they can provide some sort of free report related to the product. If you never get a response to your inquiry, drop them from consideration. If they won't respond to your email before the sale, heaven help you if your customer has a problem.


3) Check out their sales page. Is it attractive, would you buy the product based on this information, does it include testimonials? The sales page must be convincing enough to get people to buy the product.


4) Do they offer a money back guarantee? A good guarantee will boost sales. In addition, you'll know that the seller has confidence that there will not be many returns.


5) Make sure the affiliate program offers real-time statistics showing hits as well as sales. That way, you will be able to see how many visits are required to generate sales. You can use these numbers to calculate conversion ratios and compare it to your other affiliate programs. With this information, it is a relatively easy matter to determine which affiliate programs to stay with and which to get rid of.

How To Create Ebay Listings That Sell

If you want to sell anything successfully on eBay you need to know the ins and outs of writing a good listing that will get people buying from you. This is not that difficult once you know how. The same principles can also be applied to website sales copy, so we are killing two birds with one stone.

Firstly we want to establish our product as unique (or as unique as possible). Now could we do this with a DVD? Hardly. However with an African Mask for example though it would be relatively easy to stand out from the crowd.

Create a story to go along with your product. I find quite often when I'm buying from eBay, if it's from a personal seller and not from a store, and the item isn't new, I think "why are they selling it?" Make sure you answer that question.

Write a killer headline, five times as many people read the headline as the body copy. You have to grab their attention, aviod headlines which merely create curiosity, we want the visitor to read on. Don't talk about the features of your product in your headline, talk about it's benefits. You want to generate excitement in the reader. If you can, try and work out a way that your product could solve a problem that your reader might have. Remember, a good headline usually answers the question "what's in it for me?"

Describe your item in detail. Don't leave anything out. You should aim to answer every single question possible bidders may have about your product.

Create urgency in your listing.If people get the idea that they can come back and bid a few days later the chances are they won't come back, and you will lose them. Give them a reason to take immediate action, once they have made a bid they won't want to lose the item. If it's a one off, or hard to come by product make sure you emphasise that fact. Rarity and/or urgency can get people bidding like crazy.

Detail your terms and conditions. This is important, leave these out of your listings and you are asking for trouble. You'll get disputes, returns, and misunderstandings aplenty. Don't think that people will automatically read your payment and shipping details. However if you have put them in there, together with any special conditions if you have any, you will save yourself a lot of hassle.

Do include a strong guarantee. You can say something like "If you aren't satisfied with your purchase you can have a full, no questions asked, refund". This will not only reassure your visitors that your product is of good quality and worth bidding for, but will also set you apart from the majority of your competitors, who do not offer such a guarantee.

Ask for the sale. It's common sense, but you'd be surprised how many people completely miss this one. You need to ask people to take action. Tell them to place a bid today to avoid missing out, or something similar. It's a simple thing to do, but miss this one out and you are losing potential bidders.

Writing a killer eBay listing is not difficult in itself, it can actually be an enjoyable task, especially when you think of the rewards. Most people will just shove up a product, price it, and trust to luck. By following the steps above you will be able to distinguish yourself from other listings and really stand out. Try it today, and watch your profits soar.

The new seller’s guide to eBay

If you have something interesting to sell, there are millions of buyers out there on eBay waiting to buy it from you. Sadly, not many have been able to gauge the amazing potential eBay has when it comes to selling and the number of ways in which eBay can boost their businesses.

What can you sell?

As long as the range of products you have are unique and enticing enough to lure buyers, you can sell practically anything on eBay. From music cds and computer software to books and interesting gift items, you can successfully sell everything on the mega auction site - eBay! Upload these interesting goodies in your auction list and offer them at competitive prices for online sale.

Don't forget to add a picture

Adding images can do wonders for your online sale, as a good picture is far more effective than detailed description of the item on sale. When it comes to selling items such as costume jewelry and apparels, your buyers would be more convinced by seeing the image rather than reading a mere description about the specifications of the product. Ideally, you can include pictures (at the top of the page) to show the product from various angles to lure buyers.

How to sell?

I feel it is crucial to create a product title that's packed with suitable keywords in order to be easily found when buyers search for similar products. Your product listings must be accompanies with appropriate product details and if the product being offered is a second hand one, don't forget to mention this in product details. When you sell your products on eBay, buyers pay you in advance and offering some sort of guarantee or warranty on your products can make your buyers feel more comfortable when dealing with you. One thing that can boost your sale on eBay is the number of payment options you provide to your buyers. Offer as many payment options as you can so that you don't lose out on a lucrative deal simply because the options offered didn't suit that particular buyer. Buyers generally prefer online payment options, as they are fast and easy.

Be patient and polite with your customers

Since your buyers don't actually know whom they are dealing with, any delay on your side to contact them can be highly discomforting. Make sure that you follow up once you receive a sale in order to build trust and get more business from the same buyer in future.

One thing you must avoid at all costs is being impolite. You need to be very polite with your customers even if they are offensive at times. If your buyers are unhappy with the product they have purchased, you may try giving a replacement or at least try being sympathetic towards their concerns.

Pros And Cons Of Working From Home

In today's world more and more people are choosing to work at home. New opportunities are arising where people can choose work at home jobs instead of commuting to work on a daily basis. Although these opportunities are great for some people, they are not for everyone. There are pros and cons to both sides of the work at home decision. We are going to take a look at a few of the major pros and cons for a general look at working at home.

Being your own boss and having independence are the two of the major advantages to working from home. You don't have to physically report to a boss everyday like in the traditional work world. You have the independence to more or less set your own hours. If you have to go the doctor you don't have to worry about asking your boss for permission. More freedom to do the things that you need to get done is a major plus for most people. You also save money on commuting to work everyday. With the rising cost of gas prices this is a definite advantage. And if you have a family or children you have more time to spend with them if you can manage your time productively. You can take your children to the park or do other enjoyable activities with them and be a much more involved parent. It is hard to find quality time with children when you work so many hours, so working at home is the perfect solution to spending more time with your family.

Although there are so many advantages of working from home, it is not for everyone. Many people who work from home feel isolated because of the lack of human contact. They may become lonely from not being able to interact with co-workers everyday. It is different for everyone. Some people prefer working alone, while others thrive on working with others. And many people who work from home cannot escape from work and they find themselves trying to work every hour that they possibly can and this can lead to great stress. Which is the meaning behind managing time productively that we referred to earlier. It is very easy to get sucked into the black hole of thinking you need to work all hours, or that your work is never quite done. When this happens that takes away from the whole concept of working to spend more time with your family. Additionally, if you become ill and aren't able to work you may not have any money coming in at all. With work at home jobs, work is not always guaranteed as most work at home people are considered Independent Contractors. This means that there may be days where you don't receive any work and therefore no income at all because you are mainly employed per contract.

Before taking on the challenge of working from home one should consider all of the options and see if the choice is best for them. It can be an amazing opportunity but it is not for everyone. Like with anything important in life, research is an important factor. Take the time to know the facts. The more informed you are the better. This article just touches on some major components to working at home, not all of the issues and not totally in depth. This should help you to take the first step into learning more about working at home and really think about what is involved. Hopefully having a good first step will lead to many more.

How to Secure Small Business Grants

For a small business owner, there is always a tiny element of tension about how to start off or how to expand the business. You may have a great plan for expansion but getting the investments that conforms with the plans isn't easy. Thus, getting small business grants is a good idea to begin with.

Small business grants help you to start or even expand your small business. Many people think that getting a small business grant is a difficult task whereas this is a myth. If you are an owner of small business and have a similar thinking regarding the small business grants, you should understand that these grants are much easier to get than you think. You can find such a grant in your home state too!

Before you plan to get small business grants, make sure that you have a proper plan for your business. Your business plan should consist of the objectives of the business, how it will be organized, how you will arrange the cash initially, who will be perspective suppliers, what will be your marketing strategy and important things like that. Simply put, it is a projection of what you are expecting from your business in the first few years of its development. All these aspects require backing from credible data sources.

Once you are through with this, you should start to collect the funds for the company. You can raise the capital for your company in two ways. Either you can apply for federal grants or private small business grants. There are many state development agencies that offer direct small business grants. Also, you can consult different types of financial assistance that is offered by the state agencies only. This kind of assistance is designed especially for the entrepreneurs who are determined to start or expand their small business.

You should keep in mind that you will be qualified for small business grants only if you have a solid business plan that is strongly supported as a marketable product. In some of the cases, you might also need to have some amount of money to invest in your small business. Specific small business grants have specific requirements and particular application process.

You can follow the following mentioned steps to secure small business grants for the benefit of your small business:

1. You should be careful to provide the accurate and complete information while filling up the application. An incomplete application might act as an obstacle to get the grants.

2. You should know your grant officer and should get knowledge of the criteria for getting approved for the grants.

3. You can give your self an extra edge if you have a strong business plan.

4. If you are able to show that you have a fair understanding of your business then it can fortify your case. You should also convince the agency that the money they will invest in your business would be beneficial for them too.

Thus, your business would be greatly benefited by your strong determination, business acumen and planning sense. Through the business plans, you can be sure to get the benefits too! These would enable you to secure small business grants! So go ahead with confidence.

knowlefge is business

Knowledge is the business fully as much as customer is the business. Physical goods or services are only the vehicle for the exchange of customer purchasing power against business knowledge".

Above statement was made by Peter F. Drucker, a prominent Management and marketing guru.

Any economic result is the result of differentiation. What is that niche you posses that make you hot property in any market. It comes from knowledge. Knowledge is held by organization people. One day all labour can be automated by machines. But knowledge specifically is a human asset. If you have knowledgeable people you can target the sky. Books are more collection of information. Internet is one of the best medium for generating information on particular subject. But information is not a business.

Knowledge itself is not a business when used inside. When it do not produce value to the holder of knowledge, it is useless. It becomes business when applied outside of a business, to the customer, market and end-uses.

Mittal steel is king of steel market today. It posses a peculiar knowledge of converting non- performing public business and factory into highly profitable steel producing entity. It has done this numerous times Laxmi Mittal, Chairman and managing director, and his people do not change much in the plants. According to Aditya Mittal, CFO, and son of Laxmi Mittal, they apply their knowledge and past experience to turn thing around, Mittal steel turned their early acquisition around in 18 months. But now they have refined their knowledge and make any plant they capture profit producer within 6 months. That's where I say business is knowledge and knowledge is business.

Looking at GE, they have an uncanny ability to mark a new opportunity and jump into it in a big way. GE is one of the leader and rare gem in America to dominate the whole 20th century. None have done that. They posses best of best talent in the market. But still there is no example of a business which they have acquired and which is the leader in its market. They messed up with RCA, and their finance acquisition. Yet they are king with GE capital, a blue eye child of GE.

So what make an organization successful in a specific area, while a distant runner in other area? Assets and money could be acquired but it is the knowledge which turns that asset into real business

Advertising for a Home Business That is Cost Effective

There are many options available on the Internet to get started advertising a home based business. Creating a website and then placing its link on different websites is one of the ways. Pages can be submitted to the search engines after applying search engine optimization techniques. Websites offer various payment methods. Some take money for simply placing an ad or link on their website, some take money only if a visitors clicks on the link or website and some take money only if the visitors visits a link and have bought something or availed some service. There are options available for the type of ad being placed. There are pop-up ads, banner ads, wallpaper ads, polite ads, video ads, etc. Businesses with really low budget can send mails to targeted customers.

Radio stations offer a good price to advertise during the non-peak time. Get in touch with the local station and try to ask for a discount. The same applies to television; even they have a minimal amount for advertising slots during the non-prime hours, especially after midnight. Contact different television station to compare pricing.

The age-old tradition of advertising in yellow pages directories is always a success. All businesses from small home based to big can register themselves in the yellow pages and have sworn to be benefited from it. People can look up for contact numbers, addresses and services offered directly from the pages.

Newspaper is the next best thing. First analyze the audience to be targeted by age group, sex, and location. Choose the local newspaper and section where the ad should be placed depending on the audiences to be targeted. The classifieds department of the local newspapers have special offers, find out in detail about the pricing structure for the size of the advertisements, number of words, font size, etc.

Design the business cards with accuracy. Try to include all the vital information about the business like the name of the company, where it is located, services provided, working hours, and contact information like landline number, cell number and person to be contacted. Personalized business cards are good way of reaching the genuine customers.

Other way to advertise is to give presentations on your home based business and products. Brochures can be inserted in the business presentation package. Other than things like history of the company and annual turn-up, once again business cards can be included in the package. Distribute newsletters with information about the latest offers and discounts. Informational letters of a page length and e-mails can be sent too on a regular basis. All this can become lot easier by getting in touch with companies who can provide the mailing list of a particular locality and it comes for a very small price. Again the yellow pages can be referred to get information about such companies. After getting the information get in touch with company to get a copy of the latest mailing list. Different companies charge different prices.



Free bulletin board located in the neighborhood, like in grocery stores, libraries, and salons, are another good idea. Advertising circulars can be posted on such boards for free. Circulars for mass distribution can be handed out at the mall, shopping center, bus stops, particularly on weekends when there is a big rush. Students can be hired on part time basis for this purpose.

Promotional advertisement can be printed on the envelopes used by the business firms. Both the sender and the receiver can view this advertisement. Promotional offers can be sent to customers by postcards, which should be utilized to its full, leaving only place left for writing the address.

Some of the new mail order publications offer free first time and seasonal deductions for advertisers. Other publications offer pay per inquiry space. Inquiries can be made about stand-by space, which means that the publication holds the submission of advertisement until the space is not sold and in that case, thirty three percent saving can be achieved. Usually local newspapers provide these kinds of offers.

If the business is involved in ad sheet or catalog publishing, other publishers can be contacted for the purpose of bartering an advertising exchange. They can place advertisement in their publication, in return for placing their advertisement in the businessís publication.

Free offers can be provided to the customer. This can be done by emailing or printing newsletter about information regarding the area of interest of the targeted customers and can be made popular by using tag lines. Attach a free coupon with it, which the customers can use it for shopping, if a criterion is met like minimum purchase of $ 50. By this the response will be huge and most of them will purchase something or the other to avail the free offer. The basic ingredient for advertising for free is imagination and research. Opportunities should be searched and a strong working force should be applied to increase the sales.

The word of mouth is also a good method of advertising. Try growing the links in your network and join organizations which deals with advertising like trade associations and chamber of commerce. Active participation in events of these organizations eventually helps reaching more number of people

In Success Language, Failure Means You Are Almost There!

I have to admit the title of my section this week is OUTSTANDING! We all know as we are progressing towards our personal goals, dreams and aspirations that we will fail repeatedly, and then all of a sudden we achieve our ultimate outcome and attain our WHY in LIFE! As I state on my story page "Each failure is a stepping stone to Success, which in turn will become a very long and lovely stone walkway into the castle of your DREAMS!" You must truly internalize the need to fail in life.

Most people fail more between the ages of 16-25 and then they don't fail ever again in life, which means they never SUCCEED! You see, at the age 25 the majority of people lose their steam and decide to live a life instead of designing a lifestyle for themselves and their families. I am very proud to say that I have failed numerous times in my life. Just ask my parents, they will tell you ..."but John you went to college just get a JOB!" As entrepreneurs, we all know that we never have jobs because whatever we do has our life-print on it, which represents our potential. The following is a list of people that we all know who failed before they succeeded. I cannot emphasize enough that you need to continue to try over and over until you succeed and realize that, as I've said before, "Each failure is a stepping stone to Success, which in turn will become a very long and lovely stone walkway into the castle of your DREAMS!"

FAILURES...BUT NOT QUITE --After Fred Astaire's first screen test, a 1933 memo from the MGM testing director said, "Can't act. Slightly bald. Can dance a little." Astaire kept that memo over the fireplace in his Beverly Hills home.

--A relatively unsuccessful marketer of restaurant equipment, he didn't sell his first hamburger until age 52. At a time when many people prepare for retirement, Ray Kroc built McDonald's from a handful of hamburger stands into the world's largest food chain.

--When his older brother was killed during World War II, he first withdrew into a shell. Then he began to listen to the radio to ease his pain. Soon he was dreaming about hosting his own radio show. That led Dick Clark to start American Bandstand.

--Walt Disney was fired by a newspaper for lacking ideas. He also went bankrupt several times before he built Disneyland.

The question that I have for you now is, "Do you realize how you must be proud of your failures because they really are successes?" Many of my workshop attendees have heard me say "...experience is what you receive when you do not achieve what you desire." I suggest to print this out and put it on your desk where you can read this article every day and remind yourself about Fred Astaire, Ray Kroc, Dick Clark, and Walt Disney and say to yourself, "What is MY story going to be?" You need to fail in order to ultimately succeed in LIFE! After all, "IN SUCCESS LANGUAGE, FAILURE MEANS YOU ARE "ALMOST THERE!"

7 Ways To Sell Wholesale Sunglasses For Big Profits

1. The very first step in advertising designer sunglasses is a very essential one that you do not want to leave out. You need to pick the brand name you will put up for sale especially carefully. Whether it is Gucci, Chanel, Rayban or any other designer label brand. This step is significant since every country has its own laws as regards the selling of brand name sunglasses. You need to confirm with your local customs bureau to make sure that the brand you decide to sell is not trademarked with them. If you discover that it is, then the only means you can bring large quantities of the piece into the country is to get the authorization of the company who has the brand name. This, as you may be aware, is not easy to do. It is best to find a brand name that is not trademarked with customs. You can then legally import the brand name items. It is very essential you follow this piece of advice, even when importing authentic designer wholesale sunglasses.

2. Locate a reputable, honest supplier. This is not easy. If the supplier is from China, forget totally about them. The only brand name designer wholesale sunglasses that come out of China are replicas or knock offs. You want to be selling the genuine items in order to build a reputable business. Italy is a better country of choice for importing, however even then you still have to be cautious.

3. Next, visit a local boutique that sells your brand of sunglasses. Examine the details, materials used and feel of the different models of sunglasses. Soon you will be able to tell what is genuine and what is fake.

4. Advertise your wholesale sunglasses on eBay. Because of its sheer size, eBay has a lot of visitors all looking to buy. You can tap into this marketplace for relatively little cost. You have the option to set up a single auction or a store. You can decide which model you will follow. Its best to try the single auctions first to get a feel for the market, and then set up a store.

5. Advertise your wholesale sunglasses on your own blog, or if you dont have your own blog, write comments on other blogs and remember to include your signature with a link back to your eBay listing or website. This will maximize traffic to your sales pages.

6. Present wholesale lots of your sunglasses. Instead of selling just one pair, recommend a reduction for 10 or 100 pairs. This way others can resell the discounted wholesale sunglasses for a profit. This will permit you to put together an affiliate list.

7. A last step in advertising wholesale sunglasses for large profits is to use Googles Adwords. Select paying keywords like buy wholesale sunglasses or buy Chanel sunglasses. Bid on keywords that will give you the number one spot on the searches for your keywords, and furthermore allow your adwords to run on content sites. Doing this will drive targeted traffic to your listings and sales pages.

Finding The Right Affiliates

Affiliates can be people you do business with or people whose products you sell. Many people don't know that you don't even have to have your own website to make money from affiliate marketing. All you need to do is attach the affiliate link to an article you've either written yourself or that you've bought the re-sell rights to - then submit the articles to some of the online article directories to maximize the exposure that your article and therefore your affiliate marketing link gets.

How do you know if your affiliate links are working? If you use a tracking system like Adtracker, you will be able to see which of your links are driving traffic to a particular website and also which ones aren't making you any - or very little - money. You need to know which links are bringing traffic to your website. You need to know how most people are accessing your links and from there, accessing your website. That means you need to do some link tracking.

Link tracking is easier and more important than people imagine. There are thousands of article directories so why continue sending articles to directories that aren't generating any traffic at all for your website? Do you want to know which or your reciprocal or one-way links are bringing traffic to your website? Without link tracking, you don't get this kind of helpful information to help you target your marketing effectively.

Link tracking can be done through software such as Adtracker. That will give you a unique link which will show you the source of any clicks. It will track your website traffic and put it into a table for you so you will be able to see at a glance which links are sending your website traffic. You should be able to see which pages of your own website get most traffic. If you have each link, link back to a different page, by viewing the detailed traffic breakdown you can get an indication of what link the website traffic are entering your site from. That shows you which links and which article directories are most effective for your marketing.

Tracking your affiliate links allows you to make your business marketing highly effective.

Your potential affiliates should be able to get a sample of your product up-front, so they can have a good look at it. If you're trying to sell something - whether that is a product, information or a service - your online business won't get anywhere unless you can convert browsers of your website into buyers of what you want to sell.

You can check your conversion rates through Google Adwords or Overture.

You need to also make sure that your affiliates are going to get a decent commission or they may as well not bother - and they won't bother.

Following these few rules will enable you to make good use of your links with affiliates.

New Dads: How to bond with the new baby

Studies of newborn rhesus monkeys performed by Dr. Harry Harlow, show that these same monkeys when given a choice between two surrogate "mothers," one made of terrycloth, the other of wire and had food, overwhelmingly the baby monkeys chose the mother that could provide warmth and comfort. It was found that the young monkeys clung to the terrycloth mother whether it provided them with food or not, and that the young monkeys chose the wire surrogate only when it provided food. They would eat their food and return to the terrycloth mother for comfort.

In other research studies, when baby monkeys were placed with mannequin mothers at birth it showed that, despite the efforts of the baby monkeys to get a response through touching and holding the mannequins, the lack of a parental response caused sadness, stunted development, and failure to thrive in the young monkeys. Scientists suspect that lack of bonding in human babies causes similar problems.

Luckily for us humans, most infants are ready to bond immediately. Parents, on the other hand, may have mixed feelings about it. Many parents feel an intense attachment within the first moments or days after their baby's birth. For others, especially if baby is adopted or has been placed in intensive care, this all important bonding may take a bit longer.

Bonding is a process, and is not something that takes place within a few moments of time or is limited to happening within a certain time period after baby's arrival. For many families, bonding happens naturally as the result of everyday care giving. It is quite possible you may not even know it is happening until you observe your baby's first smile, make eye contact, and suddenly realize that you're filled with love for your new baby.

If you find that you want to encourage your bonding to happen you may wish to try infant massage with your baby. By massaging your infant you are helping to encourage your bond through eye-to-eye and skin-to-skin contact. This type of loving interaction helps you, as the parent, to recognize your baby's unique cues and respond appropriately. Meeting your little one's needs assists in building a lifelong bond of love and trust.

The best way to get started is to take an infant massage class or private lessons so that you can learn the many benefits of infant massage, as well as numerous strokes that you and baby may enjoy. Not all parents and babies like all of the massage strokes, but having a variety of massage strokes in your memory bank will help to vary the massage with your baby as they grow and develop different likes and dislikes. Through finding a special massage that works for you, your family bond will continue to strengthen and grow.
