Have you read my past article about freelancing with odesk? You can earn money online as a freelancer via odesk and that’s some serious money making. Getting paid from odesk is even more easier because there are 5 options to receive money from odesk. You can withdraw your earnings through MoneyBookers, can deposit the money to your bank account and of course the paypal option is available.

One of the greatest method for Bangladeshi’s and the countries that doesn’t supports paypal is the Payoneer prepaid debit Mastercard from odesk.

What is the Payoneer prepaid debit mastercard?

It’s just like any other credit cards, it’s physical card (not virtual), it operates like any other plastic card, it’s prepaid (debit card) and you don’t need any bank account to have it. It’s linked to your odesk profile and can withdraw your odesk earnings to the debit card.

How to apply for odesk Mastercard?

Go to the payment methods in odesk and click to sign up for:  oDesk Debit MasterCard powered by payoneer. Submit your user details, fill up the form correctly and then you have to submit a security document. 2nd address is the address where payoneer will send you the mastercard. You can use the same as your billing address or can use your prefered shipping address. On the 3rd part of the form, you will be asked to enter your passport number/ drivers license/ number of the national ID card (voter ID card)

After submitting the application, payoneer will verify your details and will determine if you are eligible to receive the oDesk Debit MasterCard powered by payoneer.

Once your applicatin gets approved, they will send you the card through regular postal mail.

Frequently Asked Questions

There’s a lot of goofs about the odesk Payoneer debit mastercard here in Bangladesh.. I saw a lot of threads in forums about this topic, so here’s a FAQ sheet I have produced,

• Q: Can I apply for the oDesk Debit MasterCard powered by payoneer before earning/ getting a job from odesk?
• A: Yes you can apply even without earning from odesk, but I don’t think Payoneer will approve your application because the only benefit they are getting is the monthly charge from your account. If there’s no earnings, it’s worthless to have the mastercard.
• Q: Can I apply and receive the oDesk Debit MasterCard powered by payoneer from Bangladesh?
• A: Yes you can and there are more than 2000 providers working from BD at odesk.
• Q: How long will it take to receive oDesk Debit MasterCard powered by payoneer in Bangladesh?
• A: The odesk debit card will be sent to your address through regular mail (not any express mail service like FedEx or UPS) and it will take 20-25 days to arrive to your address in Bangladesh.
• Q: What are the withdrawal & monthly charges of oDesk Debit MasterCard powered by payoneer?
• A: Minimum withdrawal amount to your debit card from odesk is $20 and fee is $2 per withdrawal. $3 is the monthly charge from your debit card. Read more details here about payoneer mastercard charges and fees.
• Q: Where can I find an ATM to withdraw money with oDesk Debit MasterCard powered by payoneer in Bangladesh?
• A: You can use any ATM in Bangladesh to withdraw money with your debit card. The oDesk Debit MasterCard powered by payoneer supports most of the ATM’s near your area including Dutch Bangla Bank DBBL ATM booths. In Dhaka, there are lots of ATM’s available to withdraw money.
• Q: Can I use oDesk Debit MasterCard powered by payoneer to purchase online/ pay for services on the internet?
• A: Yes you can.
• Q: Isn’t the fees and charges of oDesk Debit MasterCard powered by payoneer are higher?

They will give you points to search, vote and contribute; you can then exchange the points for $25, $50 or $100 Visa gift cards. I had wrote a post about scour before and today I found this post about getting paid from scour which made me inspire to buzz it again.

• Paid To Click (PTC) -Earn money for every click without a blog

Website domain age is a factor for good SEO benefits. If you want to get free traffic from google, then you have to pay close attention to this factor. We all know SEO gives traffic and that allows us to earn money online. How about getting 100+ new visitors everyday from google who are interested in your content and wants to read more? That sounds too cool so you have to buy your own domain and keep it for longer.

Most people don’t like to spend money on domain or at least if they buy a domain for blog, they don’t keep it for more than 1 year. Domains are as low as $10/year and you should invest on it.. even if you don’t feel creative about continuing your site; put your site on a free host or use a blogspot blog.

Another interesting aspect that google is looking forward is how long these domains are going to stay. I mean search engines are checking when this domain will expire. It a wise policy because domains are cheap and people are buying hundreds of them to make their main site rank higher in search engine positions. For good SEO benefits you should make your domain older + make sure you have registered more years to it.. See BlogKori’s domain stats,

Not just the domain is 1 year old, I added 1 more year till it expires, so now it’ll expire after 1 year and 8 months, real good SEO optimization. Now google will know that this is not a temporary site and will be online for a longer. What do you think?

You all are familiar with the term “Domain” right? Take a closer look.. it’s something that you know very well, it’s the foundation of any website, the Dot Com. You have already read the important aspects on choosing a domain and why a pro blogger must own his domain.. but it’s different. In domain flipping, people buy domains and keep it as long as they can be able to sell it in the future. If fact it’s one of the popular online money making business of now days because it requires less investment and knowledge.

Domain flipping basics – What is domain flipping?

Don’t mistake domain flipping with domain reseller business. Domain reseller sells regular(fresh) domains to their customers. A domain flipper/ domainer is a person who buys a domain and keeps that until the value of that domain increases to his target need.

It’s similar to house flipping where someone buys a property, and then he builds a great house and sells it in a higher price. At the same way, domain flipping works. You have to buy a new or old domain, then have to make it more valuable with your effort and then you have to sell it.

Registering a domain name is as low as $10. But with your efforts, you can sell that domain in $100’s $1,000’s or even more! Because domains are unique in the internet and people love to have a better name for their business, this is why domains are better investments and way more profitable than real estate. I call it the online real estate.

Why people are interested in buying older domains?

The number one reason to buy an old domain is the fact that it has an age value which is an important factor in search rankings. One year old domain BlogKori.com is much more valuable than a new domain BlogKori.net, the more the better. Plus older domains already have backlink values and all of those backlinks are already from ranked sites.

Instead of buying a new domain and start from scratch, business people like to speed up the process and buy an established domain name for their business. A business can’t have years of reputation from the beginning, but it’s possible in online marketing to buy a domain which was there for years.

Who can flip a domain & how much can be made?

The possibilities are endless because new companies are starting online and they need a domain name for their business. One domain can be a big deal for an ideal buyer and you can cash out hundreds or even thousands over time. This is really cool because you can make real money selling domains. You may not see the profit instantly, but there’s a chance as longer as you keep that name under your possession. If you have the funds for buying domains; the knowledge to determine valuable niches and whole lot of patience, then you can join the wagon!

Great and profitable domains are taken, isn’t it?

Yeah it’s true and almost all of the dictionary .com domains are taken away but new extensions are added regularly. You may not get business.com but it’s possible to have business.ws. New extensions such as .me will be popular in the upcoming years and you can sell your .me domain when it will become HOT! Another fact that most people don’t know about domains, the taken domains that are not continued.. gets deleted and it becomes available once again to register.

Stay tuned!

I’m a domainer and have learned a lot of things about domain and website flipping on my way. Feel free to come back frequently and I will share tips on better domaining, profitable niches, how to to find domains and everything on this topic. Why not Grab the RSS Feed?

I’m a newbie in freelancing and just got started at odesk. Since I wrote a guide on starting a freelancing career online at odesk, I got a lot of search traffic, new people looking for freelancing jobs, and even odesk providers and buyers. So when you take a look at the odesk marketplace, there’s thousands of providers working online. But when you search online for tips about freelancing in odesk, there’s not much to consume.. or most of them are either a paid review or a slight overview.

So what I want to ask to all odesk providers is to start your own blog about your freelancing journey. People still think that odesk or other marketplaces are scam sites that requires money to join. Odesk is free to join and all other sites like that are free too. Some emails and personal messages I got asking me that does odesk pays? Off course it pays and this is why I’m interested in it.

Start a blog and get more exposure

A lot of advanced odesk providers have their own website/ blog and they write about their freelancing career. There’s nothing bad about sharing your expertise. In fact it’s profitable too! Create a portion of your site describing your work, samples, your profile and a little bit about your work. Most people will hire you through your website. Other people who doesn’t wants to hire through odesk can also hire you privately.

If you want to know how to start a blog, then read this: extremely hot guide on starting your first blog.

Inspire others to work at home like you

What’s better than to help a lot of people know about freelancing, work from home and build a healthy income stream? The more you will write about your career, the more people will come and start working online. This could be a new niche and you can make money online from your visitors too.

Put your odesk affiliate link and banners on your blog. For each new member, you can earn $50 when they have worked at least 1000 hours or have spended $1000. It’s great because people who got started on odesk, will never quit working online for money and over time you will have your cut.

Have your say!

Are your working as a freelancer online? Do you blog about your work? Are you looking for online jobs as a freelancer, then start with odesk ~it’s great!

Most newbie bloggers get frustrated on how to make money with a blog, or at first they want to know on how to get started online? At this point, I can point you out this article on beginners guide for blogging. But the question is still active: How can I build a blog and start making money from it?

The answer is clear, you can’t earn money from the very first day of blogging. It may take 6-12 months or even 36 months. Or you may never ever make money from blogging at all.. feeling disappointing? You can’t make money with a blog alone and blog is just a medium of connecting to the world. Here’s what my bright, money making blogger friend said,

…There is a big myth behind this question. Many people think that you can create a blog and start making money auto-magically. That’s not truth, in fact you cannot make  money just “blogging”…

…A blog doesn’t make money by itself, it is just a channel, a tool that can help you to sell and earn money…  ~MrJavo on this interview

Think about a niche

Think like your blog as a radio station/ TV channel or a newspaper. The type of content you will produce will attract the sort of audience. For an example, blogkori it self is about blogging & money making tips for beginners. New people who are willing to start a blog/ website and looking for online earning will be more interested in reading blogkori.

The type of content will send a specific targeted people to your blog from a specific age level, level of participation and level of spending/ buying/ investing capability.

The best niche for blogs are technology, news and entertainment. Try to build a blog about technology related topics because techy  people are much more internet savvy and they love to promote content. Tech related posts are easy to market and a majority of people love these kind of blogs.

Start a blog with a free/ paid platform

Now that you know what you are going to cover, start a blog. You can start a blog using blogger or can go for a self hosted wordpress blog. Either way you now have a baby blog. Write 10-20 headlines on your topic and start posting 200-300 word articles. Don’t put too much effort on your early posts because you are still learning. Post one article every day. Wait at least 10 days or 10 posts before you can jump for your blog promotion.

Solve a problem with 5-10 articles

You can’t just write random articles on a daily basis. What you have to do is to provide a solution on your blog. You have to guide people from point A to point B. For an example, you have a blog about “computer assembling tips.” Write few posts where you had covered all of the basic fundamentals from how to install a motherboard, installing processor, RAM and finally how to boot the computer. Here, you have to focus that, people love complete solutions. They will bookmark your blog for further reading in the future.

Start promotion your new blog

When you have at least one complete solution on your blog, start using word of mouth (free promotion) for getting new people to your blog. Paid traffic is not a better option at this level. Go to facebook, twitter, myspace and promote your blog. Ask your friends to put a link/ banner of your blog on their sites. Put your website URL on email signatures, profiles and other places your visit. Comment on relevant blogs/ websites and leave your link.

Sign up for google adsense

Google adsense is the yet most easiest option to monetize your blog. But it won’t provide you instant cash. Sign up for adsense and create two or three ad spots. Place one ad spot on top, one on the sidebar and last one on the bottom. You can also go for no ads and wish to keep your new visitors on your site for longer because each adsense click generate low revenue.

Use affiliate marketing for your blog

Sign up for any affiliate network like PepperJam or ClickBank and search for some great products on your niche. Pick up at most 3 products (for now) and cloak the affiliate links. Write a good post about the product you are promoting and put your affiliate link on it. Put the links on your sidebar as plain links ~no fancy banners.

Use paid review to make money for blog

Another way of great money making is using paid review sites. Sign up for a list of paid review sites and get started on money making. Pick up reviews that are related to your niche to get more SEO benefits even from your paid posts. Most paid review sites requires your site to become 1 month old, so wait before your blog becomes at least one month older.

Promote your other business

The main goal of your blog could be promoting your main business that earns you money. Try to build a profile on your blog and build a section describing your work and what you provide. Business people write about things they sell and it’s a great way to attract new leads.

Have your say

Do you make money with a blog/ website? How do you earn money online? Are you looking for starting a profitable online asset? Please share a few tips about your journey.

On May 2009, one of my twitter follower asked me if I can help him out designing a website for his company. I lost that opportunity because of a portfolio and then I decided to create my own web design website. I spent a few days designing a new website and on June 2009, I found a website called oDesk.

What is oDesk?

oDesk is a marketplace where freelance workers post their resume, portfolio and buyers look for ideal providers to help with different task. On odesk, there’s a lot of opportunities; from data entry to graphics design, from virtual assistant to project manager, from website developer to creative media works. No matter what you can do, you can join for free and work with this platform.

Getting started

After checking out the site, I quickly googled them and I found a lot of reviews. I went to read a negative review about odesk and found that odesk really works and you can build great online career as well as a nice income opportunity. After that I signed up for odesk and created my work profile.

How it works?

Signing up for odesk is free of cost and for buyers, they can sign up and post their job for free. At odesk, you have to search for different jobs, apply and wait if your buyer hires you. Buyers can also search for providers in the marketplace.

Job types: Fixed price and Hourly

There are two sort of odesk jobs; one is fixed price which means your buyer wants you to do this job and will pay you when you complete the task. Fixed price job may take a lot of time to complete and the payment is not guaranteed. After completing the job, it’s upto the buyer if they will or how much they will pay.

Hourly job means you will be paid on per hour basis. For this, you have to download oDesk team application and install it on your computer. When you get an hourly job, you can then log in using the app and log your work hours. The app will take one screen shot of your desktop every 10 minutes and keep the record of your activity. This way your buyers can track your work progress. Hourly jobs are better because the payment is guaranteed and it will be added on your overall career.

Building your profile

In the beginning, you have to pass the odesk readiness test to get access to your odesk provider profile. Build your profile by adding your skills; get all of your works and create your portfolio; fill out details, work experience so that it looks great. Take a look at other people’s portfolio to know how a good portfolio looks like.

Getting a job on odesk

You know, this is the hardest part of odesk. You have created a profile, applied for jobs and waited if your buyer calls you for an interview or hires you.. but nothing happenes. Getting your first job or even getting a hint on how to start is really frustrating. The main reason why people don’t hire new people because they have no work records and nothing to show on their portfolio.

Think hard.. put a few work examples on your portfolio, pass a few more relevant tests, upload a good bio photo and add more details on your profile.

Your first impression is the cover letter, write something great when you apply for a job. Try to start a job letter from scratch. Put some work examples, give them a few methods to get in touch with you, give them a reason why they will hire you?

People spent more and more months on odesk but don’t get their first jobs. Most people spend more then 6 months jobless. I’ve applied for many jobs but no results.. until I got my first assignment on odesk :)

Why odesk?

There’s a lot of marketplaces available online that can give you an online career opportunity such as GetAFreelancer, HireACoder and Guru. But I prefer odesk because it’s the one place I got into it first and I’ve already built a good work portfolio. If you’re looking for a great place to start out, then try odesk and only odesk. If you try to get work from all of these sites, you won’t get any.

Odesk have some of the great features for a provider; they pay weekly through all of the major payment methods including paypal, payoneer debit mastercard, moneybrookers and others. They have a great reputation and a bigger marketplace.

It’s better to use odesk as your default portfolio; it’s easier to manage, update and even better to get work.

Few tips for new providers

• Don’t ever think that there’s a lot of competition in odesk. When you apply for a job, believe that you are the best among others. There’s always new opportunities and lot more work than actual providers, so be on it.
• Try to be on all of the major communication methods such as yahoo messenger, google talk, AIM, skype and  email to make sure the buyer can reach you when they need.
• Try to provide a solution to your buyer and if you are unable to do it, don’t keep them hanging.
• Look for the solution and only solution.. not for the money. In your freelance career, the feedback is the most important thing to achieve.
• Don’t set a low price on your profile; try to keep it competitive and few dollars low if you are getting started.
• Keep connect with your buyer and send them work updates regularly.
• It’s a good thing to build up a friendship with the buyer.. it will result further trust and work opportunities in the future.
• If you have enough tasks in hand, don’t apply for more work.
• It’s possible to work even more hours for more money, but please do take breaks and day offs.
• Increase your hourly wage over time as you work more and gathered more reputation.

My oDesk career

Yeah, after all of this bragging, you might wanna know about my odesk profile. Well I’m doing fine with odesk and it took me one month to get my first assignment. You can take a look at my public profile at odesk. Can also hire me; I do wordpress and thesis theme customization and a few more stuffs for my clients. I’m currently having a lot of work in hand.

Do you work as a freelancer?

Are you looking for working online as a freelancer? Have you used odesk before? What do you think about this review? If you have anything more to know about freelancing, odesk or getting jobs.. then feel free to ask me.

Cloaking/ masking means faking; in affiliate marketing terms, cloaking means hiding your affiliate links. I’ve told you about affiliate tracking links, yeah the links that says you are the one who sent the buyer to your affiliate site; read this post if you don’t know what affiliate marketing is.

Cloaking is required to make sure you get the commission if the customer ever wants to buy the product. Here is what a typical affiliate link looks like,

And some links a even more longer!

Now that’s one reason of cloaking an affiliate link. Affliate links have your affiliate ID and most of the time people will remove your ID. That’s a bad practice; if you want to buy it, why don’t you want to give a cut?

Some people don’t trust these extremely longer links, because they might send them to an untrusted website. Here’s what I did using PHP redirect script,

With a PHP redirect, I can cloak my affiliate links and can keep my ID secure. No one will ever know which link is they are redirected to. Some people uses URL shortening services to do this, but that’s something people won’t like to click.

Here’s how you do it: Create a new text file and open it. Put this code inside the text file,

<?
Header( "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" );
Header( "Location: YOUR-AFFILIATE-LINK" );
?>

So that it looks something like this,

After that, rename your text file from new-folder.txt to new-folder.php. In my case, I renamed the folder to host-gator.php

Next, you have to create a new folder on your websit’s ROOT directory named ‘go’, ‘partner’ or anything you preffer and then you have to upload the PHP file. After that test your new url and you will be redirected to your affiliate site using your afft link.

By using this method, I got much more click troughs and better results than before.

Blogspot users

Blogger/ blogspot users don’t have the access to their ROOT folder; so in this case you can get a free web hosting account and host your PHP redirect file there.

Wordpress plugin

There’s a plugin available on wordpress which can cloak your links easily with a click of a button.

Do you have a better way of cloaking links?

Please do let me know what do you think about this post. Have you ever used affiliate marketing; have used redirect scripts to mask your links? Your valuable comments will be most appreciated.
