How Many Subscribers Are Actually Reading Your Mails?

If you are using an autoresponder to increase your online sales and prospects, have you ever wondered how many of your subscribers are actually reading their mails? I use the TrafficWave service for free and they have put in a great new add-on feature which will actually show you the percentage of people that are opening your mails.

Now I use to think that once somebody confirmed their e-mail address and entered my autoresponder that they would automatically read what I sent them, but I have learned this is not the case. The new add-on feature at TrafficWave has really shed some light on my direct e-mail marketing efforts, as I now know I have to create better subject lines in order to get my reader's attention.

Since I have implemented the TrafficWave service into my online business, things are starting to turn around for me. I have been list building, have a subscriber's list, am getting sales and now can also start focusing in on getting better sales conversions. Nothing like walking around in the dark.

TrafficWave offers much more than just multiple autoresponders. They have ad tracking, banner advertising, and you can have your own FFA page. You can even use their hosted lead capture page templates to start list building; so you do not need a website or blog to start building a list. AND believe it or not, they offer all this for $17.95 a month (not like some other services that charge you an arm and a leg). Better yet, you can even use the service for free if you want to participate in their affiliate program.

If you want to try out the TrafficWave service and embed an autoresponder in your blog or website, I invite you to try it out for 30 days free. They offer free trials. You have nothing to lose. You might even like it and want to continue on with it. Better yet, you may fall in love with it like I have and add it as another stream of online income for yourself.

Cup of Joe To Go

I was recently approached to try a cup of mushroom coffee. Now, I don't know about you, but I am more than likely to have mushrooms on my pizza, not in my morning beverage. The last time I tried an online specialty health treat it was not a good time. In fact, I ended up using it as a disciplinary device for my children. If my children were naughty, I told them they had to come see mom to get some Noni. The looks on their faces was punishment enough; this stuff tastes like rotten feet. I actually have no idea what rotten feet would taste like, but I can only guess that it would rank up there with Noni juice.

I ended up getting some samples of this mushroom coffee and was a little hesitant to give it a go. I actually put them to the side with the thought that tomorrow would be the day I would try it; I just needed to find a good day that I could get sick. The day finally came.

I microwaved my water in my coffee cup and emptied a Ganobrand mocha coffee packet into it. I stirred it around expecting it to be green or red since this beverage contains a Chinese medicinal herb of red mushrooms that is suppose to be very good for you. To my relief there was no green or red; it just looked like coffee.

Then came the smell test. I was a little frightened on this one since the image of rotten feet still plaqued my mind. However, it did not have the rotten feet stench. It had a really nice smell to it.

Now the taste test. The true test of bravery. I took a little sip, and you know what? It didn't taste bad at all. In fact, it tasted pretty good. So I gave it another sip, and it tasted even better. I am now hooked on this Ganobrand mocha coffee; so much that I may end up hosting a blog on it at a later date. I know that health and wellness are hot niches online and I also know that coffee is a very hot
commodity. You will find various statements online saying coffee is secondary to a barrel of oil.

If you are interested in starting a health or wellness niche or having anything to do with coffee online, you really have to look at this company. It does have an affiliate program. In fact, the guy that introduced me to this product has been selling it at home now for 3 years and has a customer base of 3,000; very impressive.

You have to order some samples to check it out if you are into preventative health. I already did the sight, smell and taste test and this stuff is awesome.

Squidoo Drives Traffic

Bloggers that want to drive traffic to their sites need to utilize Squidoo. There are many ways to drive traffic and this is one of them. I see some bloggers utilizing Squidoo but they are not taking full advantage of it.

If you are going to use Squidoo, you are going to do more than just make a lens. You are going to want to insert your RSS feed into it, you are going to want to utilize the Tweeter plug-in option, you are going to want to take advantage of their monetization models, and you are definitely going to want to get involved in the communities. This program also offers directory listings just for lenses.

Because the search engines are Squidoo friendly, you are going to want to make sure you utilize keywords so the engines will know what your lens is about. Creating a lens obviously takes some time, but it is well worth your effort. You are going to want to place a Squidoo banner on your blog (they have 125 x 125) when you have completed your lens; so you see you will be directing readers of your Squidoo lens to your blog and vice versa.

For bloggers that are into Clickbank or those that are already into Squidoo, there is an eBook available for you to market called Squidoo Cash Machine. I ran into a Squidoo lens last week where the writer explained that she had purchased this eBook and applied its marketing methods and had an increase in her primary sales. She had also sold a couple of the eBooks; so you may want to take a look at it and see if this is something you want to market or personally read.

Make Money with Online Gaming

Online gaming can lead to big bucks if you have a website or blog geared toward this profitable niche. Many people come online each day to play their favorite online games; some of which including betting sites. I personally got caught up in the fever a short time ago but not with card games but with other games like Bejeweled, Scrabble Cubes, Zuma, etc. In all these instances, I started off with a free trial game and when the time expired for me to make the purchase for the full version, I opted to go to a cash game instead because I desired online competition.

I never did make any money from playing these online games but figured somebody was making money off of them, and it is the owners of the game site and the affiliate link I signed up from to enter this arena that was making money off of it. This lead me to explore the online gaming niche a little further.

Online poker, Texas hold 'em, and bingo are all hot games to play online for money. My question was if I ever wanted to get into this niche, which program would I offer. After researching, I located an online gaming community that provides excellent tutorials on online games, gives gaming site reviews on the hottest gaming sites online, and is free to join. It is called the Wassonline community.



The Wassonline Community is one of the advertisers of the MoreNiche affiliate program. In addition to this online gaming community, MoreNiche also represents online casinos, such as 24kt Gold, Flamingo Club, Golden Palace, Online Casino, and Wasspoker. MoreNiche has advertisers in other niches but they do have a nice selection of online gaming advertisers if you want to enter the gaming arena.

Making money with online gaming is easy with the MoreNiche program because you do not need a website or a blog to begin. In fact, the MoreNiche program is just not for seasoned professionals but beginner affiliates because this is one affiliate program that provides the beginner with all the information, guidance and support they need in order to get going. Many affiliate programs do not do this, and it is refreshing to see that an affiliate program would take the time to actually teach people how to get into this field. It is a great learn and earn program to get you on your way to earning with online gaming.

Make Money with Pepperjam Ads

Pepperjam Ads is a program I recently joined to see what they could offer me in terms of monetization for my blog and also a website I am working on. I have joined quite a few affiliate programs over the past few weeks to review them and see if they were a fit for me. Unfortunately, you cannot always tell what a program can offer you until you are officially registered with them.

A revolution in affiliate marketing has arrived. I had heard of this network in the past but never had the opportunity to really look at them. This is one of those instances where I feel I have been running around in circles and the answer has been right in front of me all along. If you are looking for a top-notch, very well organized, easy to use, and profitable affiliate program, please stop and read this -- YOU NEED TO Join Pepperjam Network today!.



I was not really sure what to expect when I joined, and all I can say is WOW! First, you have to have a website or blog to join this program. Based on the content of your website or blog, you will be matched up with the advertisers they have listed in their ad network. Some advertisers offer CPA ads and some offer CPC ads and some offer a combination of both. The advertisers represented at Pepperjam Ads cover numerous niches; from making money, health and fitness, home and garden, etc. In other words, they have a wide variety of quality advertisers that will satisfy your monetization needs regardless of our niche.

Bloggers are the heart of the Pepperjam Ad Network, and the network is currently offering a $10 incentive for new bloggers to join the network -- that is right $10 just for getting approved and doing what you already do.

Making Money with MoreNiche

Making money with MoreNiche is something everybody should consider. This company has been around for some time and focuses on very lucrative products online -- online gaming and male enhancement products. Yes, male enhancement products are HOT! They also offer a couple other products but these 2 items are definite online winners.

Do you have any idea how many come online each and every day to play games and to gamble or how many people come online to seek out companions in the online dating sites -- the number is staggering. Gambling and sex sell online just as well as they do on television, and if you want to make some money without a website, you definitely need to get involved with MoreNiche because you can join and just use your affiliate link or blog to promote.



This is a great opportunity as well for the beginner because they provide you with a beginner's guide, marketing resources, and marketing ebooks. They also have a forum for the members and will teach you how to obtain traffic. This is an awesome earn and learn program with focus on 2 hot markets. Making money with MoreNiche is a snap if you roll up your sleeves and get to work on this program.

Make Money with Webroot

You can make money with Webroot if you have a blog or website with an internet security theme. They are affiliated with the LinkShare program if you would like to look them up. I do not represent this product, but if I had a theme-based site for internet protection, I would definitely promote them. Let me tell you why.

I had one bad day yesterday. I think I left my e-mail box open when I was bouncing around the internet and somebody got me. They somehow or other got into my email account and sent mails to a thousand people I never heard of but also attached themselves to my own mailing list -- ouchie. Later that day I found out that my associate's eGold account got hacked into and somebody located in Vietnam had claimed her account. She advised eGold and is working on fixing the problem, but the guy already took $150 out of her account and I hope she does not lose anymore. My associate has a very tight computer system and somebody stole from her. She claims she did not receive a phishing e-mail or have a keylogger virus in her computer.

Anyways, back to Webroot. The first thing I did when I discovered this was do a scan, which didn't reveal anything much. I then went to CNET and downloaded a couple free trial programs trying to uncover the root of this problem -- still nothing that made me go ohh-ahh. Finally, a friend of mine from India told me about Webroot and that I should run a trial scan with SpySweeper, which I did. I was happy to see that this program revealed the little bugger to me -- a Trojan -- Winbudget (not so nice). Of course in order to remove the bug, I had to buy the product, which I did end up doing because it was the only program that would get rid of it. My associate also bought a copy of it. Unfortunately, my friend from India is not an affiliate marketer, but he could have made a couple bucks last night.

Unfortunately, the first time I heard about this product was from my friend in India last night. If you have a website or blog, you can make money with Webroot. I love this product. It got me out of a pickle. Try the free scan and see if you have any hidden wonders in your computer. I am highly impressed with this product and recommend it to users as well as people who would like to promote it.

Make Money with Project PayDay

Make money with Project PayDay? What? You have to be kidding, right? Wrong. Believe it or not MANY people are making some nice money with this program. I actually joined it just because everywhere I went I saw ads for it. The ads drove to a breaking point where I just had to find out what the heck this program was all about. I don't know who the young lady is in the video for the program, but I think her image has been shown throughout the entire internet.



So what is Project Payday? If you are making money with the get-paid-to programs, you will catch on to this very quickly. Sometimes you will see ads for things like $500 Amazon gift cards or maybe a free Nintendo Wii (there are many more; I am just pulling some out of a hat). Now if you work the GPT sites, you would normally just fill out the front page of the offer and collect maybe 50 cents. However, the people participating in this program take it all the way home -- they go for the $500 reward. Now if you are trying to obtain the $500 reward, you will be selling greens and if you are somebody helping this person obtain that reward you are going to be buying greens. This is the fastest way I know of if you need some money to your Paypal account, because the person trying to obtain the reward is going to pay into your Paypal account anywhere from $20 to $40 just for helping them out.

I know this past fall there were tons of people going for the Free Nintendo Wii's. A lot of these people who obtained their reward would then turn around and resell their prize on eBay and make a nice profit there. To put it in a nutshell, there is A LOT you can do with this as both a buyer and seller of greens.

Now, here is something I don't hear many people talking about and they really should. First, you do not need to pay anything to join Project Payday, which I can't understand. Secondly, the Project Payday people even give new signups a $100 guarantee. They say that if you follow their step-by-step guide and do not make money within 24 hours, you are to write them and they will pay you $100. If you can back up your plan with a money-back guarantee like they have, there is no doubt you are going to make money with Project Payday. I do participate in it myself from time to time. Like I said in my blog intro, I participate in a little bit of everything.

Making Money with Bizz Wizz

Making money with Bizz Wizz is a great thing. Advertising and marketing is key when you have an online business. I don't know about you, but I spend countless hours doing it via free classified ads, traffic exchanges, article writing, adverts, solo ads, paid-per-click advertising, etc. I am constantly seeking out effective advertising/marketing platforms.

The Bizz Wizz advertising site is geared toward affiliate marketers. Yes, you can promote other things here, but I think the people who are going to have the most success with it are the affiliate marketers; just my opinion. What you do is post your adverts on the product you are promoting and in time your advert is going to rank top in the search engines; pretty cool I say. Wouldn't you like to reduce the cost of your pay-per-click advertising dollars? This is a great way to do it.



Also, this program has an affiliate component to it. It is tied into ClickBank, ClixGalore, and ShareASale. I firmly believe that the best representative of a product or service is somebody who uses it. You have to try it out to see how effective it can be for you and then you will have no problem at all promoting it because you will definitely know its effectiveness. Making money with Bizz Wizz is a steal on wheels for the affiliate marketer at $25.00

Want to Get Friends/Family to Your Website or Blog?

The easiest way to get your friends, family, potential customers or referrals to your online business is to give them a business card. Yes, they will come. I am telling you this because it does work and I have found a great deal on business cards where you can get them for free from a company called BizCard.

Last fall when I was working the GPT (get-paid-to) sites there was a woman who would win referral contests month after month for a cash prize, and finally one day another lady posted to her and asked her how she was doing it. The woman responded that she made a blog of her GPT sites displaying proof of payment with directions how to do it and then she would hand out business cards to her site. She said she was a stay-at-home mom and was at her child's school frequently and would run into other moms who also wanted to make a little money, so she would hand them her card. I think she was at her child's school on a daily basis because this woman just skyrocketed with the GPTs, and her biggest contributing factor was her business card; so don't be shy to tell your offline contacts what you doing because they could be interested.

Making A Little Money with TeamEarner

Making a little money online is not such a bad thing to do. However, it can be very confusing. Most people give up before they even start and some (including myself) have entered money-earning programs with the best intentions only to end up in the red. When I started this blog, the first thing I thought was how am I going to put all of this information into a blog; am I skilled enough to do it and will I be able to write effectively and hold your attention. The pressure is on.

I am happy to tell you though that I have found an out. I have just learned of a very good program that not only holds all the information one needs to get started online but it also has a compensation program with it; this program intends to revolutionize the way people make a living online

Why is this information invaluable? Because this program holds excellent information on GPTs (get paid to's), PTCs (paid to clicks), and PTRs (paid to read) programs. These are the programs that people typically start out with when they first try making a little money online because they don't want to spend any money. They have great information on HYIPs, MLM, affiliate marketing, surveys, blogging. It is all in here so you can figure out what you would like to do online to make a little money. It is also a great program to make new contacts with and to network market with because there is a forum containing people just like you.




Now, this is the part I really like about the program. They have cash prizes every 2 weeks. One ended the other day which was for $40. How could you win it -- by posting your response to the program owner's question; the best answer got the prize. Also, there is the compensation program, which has both an affiliate and MLM component to it. For every referral you receive and your downline receives 5 levels deep you get $2. If this sounds like small change to you, think again because it all adds up.

How much does this program cost -- $13 for 6 months. Whether you utilize this program for its library, its cash prizes, its networking forum or its compensation program, you can't find any better than this online. The first information guide I bought online cost $50.00 and was for doing surveys at home -- I wasted my money because the information was outdated and there were lots of SCAM sites listed. This is not the case with this program. It is top notch and will help you learn to earn.
