For those of you that want to make money online using your blogging site or website that talks about the latest products, or you might have a music or movie review blog then a great affiliate program to join up to is Amazon Associates.

Amazon Biggest Online Retailer

If you are new to buying goods online, Amazon is one of the biggest or should I say probable the biggest online retail store in the world selling almost any products you may be looking for ranging from DVDs, music CDs and MP3s, computer software, video games, electronics, apparel, furniture, food, toys. What they are truly known for is selling books which made them big from the start.

Amazon Affiliate Program

A few years back Amazon decided to start their own Affiliate program which was called Amazon Associates which allows anyone with a well established website or blog to join their affiliate program and having access to the Amazon’s database of thousands of products to promote and sell.

How Amazon Associates Works

Like any affiliates program you would need to signup to Amazon Associates and once signed up you will have access to links and banners, Amazon Widgets which can be integrated into your site or blog and a very useful aStore feature which is a self-contained online store embedded directly within your web pages.

The great thing is that you can customize your Widgets, links and banners to fit into the theme of your site or blog and can choose the products you want to sell on your site. Once people start buying you can earn up to 15 percent in referrals by advertising Amazon products off of your site or blog.

If you are currently using Google Adsense to make some extra money online, you can use Amazon Associates to complement your Google Adsense and will have two money revenue streams been generated from your blogging site.

Amazon Associates have some really cool widgets that rotate various products that you may want to offer and you can include the widget into your blog side columns. Links and banners you can insert into blog posts.

A lot of us dream of doing away with our corporate 9 to 5 day jobs. The reality is that it’s possible and I feel that with the fast and rapid growth of Technology over the passed 2 decades it is making it easier for people with skills to work from home and hire out their skills to corporations and the mass population. It costs companies a lot of money every year to employ thousands of people and corporations are looking at cheaper alternatives and that includes hiring out skilled consultants to perform specific tasks’ within the company or organization.

We all at sometime in our lives think of going it alone and starting our own Internet or Home startup Business, we get very excited about the prospect but at the same time it can be very intimidating. But the good news is that by following a few simple steps and rules it is easier to start a business than you think and the success is much greater too. Let’s have a look at some of these simple steps that one can follow to a successful business startup.

Startup Business where to begin

Choosing the Right Business Option – remember that you need to choose something that you are going to be good at and that you have some sort of skill at, that suits your lifestyle.

Research your Market – You will need to do your research and make sure that there is a need for the product or service you will be selling or providing to others. Try and find a product or services to sell that does not already exist and you will stand a good chance of success.

Draw up a business plan – this will give you the information you will need for your businesses operational and financial direction, it’s like a road map for your businesses future direction.

Right people to employ – remember to employ people who have experience in the business that you will be starting, not all startups will employ new staff members from the beginning.

Market your business – you will need to market your business so you will have to get out there and promote your business by advertising in newspapers, magazines and online.

Financial systems in place – you will need to put in place solid financial system from the beginning or even finding someone with professional financial skills to assist you with your business financials.

Cash Flow Management – remember that cash flow is the life blood of the business and needs to be managed correctly.

Contract Specialist skills – as an entrepreneur you will find that you will not be able to run ever aspect of your business so you might need to contract specialist skills to run specific parts of your business for it to grow and expand.

The main thing to remember when taking on the prospects of starting up your own Online or Home Business is to do something that you are going to enjoy and to have lots of fun doing this as this might be something that you will be doing for a very long time.

Increase your blog traffic with Adgitize

sastone — Thu, 24 Dec 2009 16:20:45 +0000

Need more web traffic to your blog then why not try out Adgitize which is a perfect advertising solution for bloggers. If you are new blogger this solution will help you gain a lot of new visitors to your blog and increase your exposure. This Earn Money online blog is utilizing Adgitize’s advertising program to drive more visitors.

Adgitize is a fairly new blog advertising network which has only been around for the passed year. I remember coming upon Adgitize when they were first starting out and they seemed to be doing a similar thing to what Entrecard is offering, and that was building up a blogging community. Even though Entrecard is battling with establishing their own advertising network.

So about a 2 weeks ago I signed up to one of their advertising packages which includes running your blog ad for $14 a month through their publishers network, they have managed to gain a large following over the year, which is constantly growing, standing at over 5000 members. I wanted to see what sort of response in terms of traffic generation I would get as it was mentioned on the Adgitize blog that their advertisers were receiving high traffic turn over.

What I notice from my Google Analytics over the 2 week period with advertising on Adgitize.com was that I was in fact getting a lot of traffic from Adgitize.com roughly +/- 70 hits a day, but the thing was that these unique hits had only viewed my blog for an average of 14 seconds and the bounce rate was about 94 percent, to me this indicates that the visitors to this earn money online blog were not true visitors but probable publishers clicking on the ads to get more points so that they could make more money through the Adgitize partnership program, they also have an adgitize affiliate program.

My conclusion on this is that I still think Entrecard is a better service in terms of attracting more interested individuals to ones blogging site.

I will continue to utilize the Adgitize advertising program over the next few months and monitor my Google Analytics with regards to this source of web traffic and if it is worth investing money into it in the future or not. It might work better for other blogging sites.

If anyone has encountered better results with any other blog advertsing networks please share with us by leaving a comment.

We will be looking at some of the cost structures of some of the big and smaller players and will see where we can save and look for the most competitive broadband rates in the industry.

Telkom ADSL Broadband

Telkom has the monopoly in South Africa when it comes to the telecommunications industry and what can they offer us in terms of affordable broadband rates. Their cheapest broadband solution for the individual is their Do Broadband packages.

Do Broadband Level 1 (R199.00 a month): Speed 384kbps, International Cap 1GB, Local Cap 10GB, have to buy an ADSL modem. Excludes setup, line rental, voice and fax call charges.

Do Broadband Level 2 (R258.00 a month): Speed 384kbps, International Cap 3GB, Local Cap 20GB, free Wi-Fi ADSL Modem on 24month contract or have to buy an ADSL modem. Excludes setup, line rental, voice and fax call charges.

Do Broadband Level 3 (R554.00 a month): Speed 4096kbps, International Cap 5GB, Local Cap 30GB, free Wi-Fi ADSL Modem on 24month contract or have to buy an ADSL modem. Excludes setup, line rental, voice and fax call charges.

Neotel Broadband costs

Neotel entered into the South African communications market a few years ago and are slowly making a name for them selves and is a threat to Telkoms monopoly, I reckon in a few years from now Neotel will be on level terms with Telkom. What I like about Neotel broadband products is that the device price is included in the price of the packages and shows other price structures like voice calls etc.

NeoConnect Lite (from R99.00 a month): A fixed-wireless home phone solution that offers competitive rates and allows you to select the package to suit your voice, SMS and basic Internet requirements, all-in-one.

NeoConnect Prime (from R279.00 a month): A fixed-wireless solution that gives you a phone with high-capacity and high-speed Internet access, SMS and voice on a single account.

NeoGo Datacard (from R299.00 a month): A datacard that offers you unprecedented value and 50% more data with a 1.5GB bundle.

Vodacom 3G broadband

Vodacom is one of the biggest Cell networks in South Africa and has about 80 percent of the country covered. I have personally used their 3G data packages and had very little down time and on average the network speeds were good, here are some Vodacom 3G broadband costs.

MyGig One (R349.00 a month): High Speed broadband, 1GB cap, USB modem included on a 24 month contract, no setup costs.

MyGig Three (R649.00 a month): High Speed broadband, 3GB cap, USB modem included on a 24 month contract, no setup costs.

MyGig Five (R1049.00 a month): High Speed broadband, 5GB cap, USB modem included on a 24 month contract, no setup costs.

Vodacom’s 3G packages are quite expensive but if you are on the move a lot and need to connect in different locations then I would suggest using them. But if your business is fixed I would use either Telkom, Neotel or if you have a Telkom line then you can apply for an ADSL account through Afrihost which has some really cheap and affordable ASL accounts starting at:

Bronze 1GB package for R29.00 a month excluding Telkom line rental, setup and ADSL modem.

Silver 2GB package for R58.00 a month excluding Telkom line rental, setup and ADSL modem.

Gold 3GB package for R87.00 a month excluding Telkom line rental, setup and ADSL modem.

Platinum 5GB package for R145.00 a month excluding Telkom line rental, setup and ADSL modem.

If you are not connected to the internet yet, get connected and start making money online.

Get Paid Money via 2Checkout an alternative to PayPal

sastone — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 06:58:53 +0000

Do you run an online business or a blog that you want to utilize online advertising and make money from it but don’t have an online payment system like PayPal to process these payments or in a country that does not allow you to connect your PayPal account with your local bank. 2Checkout might be your solution to processing your online money payments.

If you are like me, a South African running some online stores and money making blogs and want to provide a means and away to allow possible advertisers to advertise on your sites and then receive the money payments directly into your local banking account or possible some other means where you can easily withdraw your money, 2Checkout might be this solution.

Let’s have a look at some of the issues that some publishers are experiencing when receiving their online money they have made through affiliate programs and from online advertisers.

If you live in a country like South Africa you will have noticed that you can signup for a PayPal account and are able to make money payments through PayPal but are not able to receive money payments. This is due to the South African Government not allowing PayPal to connect to our local banking accounts.

So what is the Alternative to PayPal?

Recently 2Checkout which is also an online money payment system mentioned that they have now added 5 new local currencies to their list of 17 local currency money payouts including the South African Rand and Indian Rupee.

They also offer the ability to transfers your money funds that you have accumulated to your local bank account via wire transfer in your local currency which includes South Africa and India.

If you would like to with draw and have access to your money fast, 2Checkout offers a Payoneer Reloadable Debit MasterCard. What I really like about the Debit card is that you can with draw funds at any ATM that accepts MasterCard around the World.

Benefits of a Payoneer Reloadable Debit MasterCard

No bank account or credit check required.

Receive money funds faster and enjoy immediate access to your funds

View your account, money payments, balance and transaction history online, 24/7.

Make purchases and withdraw money in your local currency from any point of sale or ATM worldwide that accepts MasterCard®.

The money on your card is MasterCard® protected even if your card is lost or stolen. Payoneer will ship you a replacement card and transfer your balance to your new card. Note: transactions requiring your PIN are not refundable.

If any of you have used 2Checkout or use another online money payment system that works for you and offers other means of receiving money payments and are just as good please let us know but commenting on this post.

In a future post we will be having a look at different online money payment systems that are available to advertisers, publishers, affiliates and bloggers on the internet.
