By Timon Weller on July 5, 2010

call to actionLately I keep forgetting one element on my blog that is so important.. A Call to Action element at the end of a blog post.. Why i have forgotten to use this element, i do not know why as i know it produces more traffic.. If you are unsure what a Call to Action element is, it is when you finish a post or article on your blog and you ask your readers to do something for you..

Using Call to Action is a very effective free way of spreading the word (free marketing) of an article or post simply by adding a few words..

An Example of a Call to Action on a Blog

Automated Blogging – Three Reasons to Avoid Automated Blogging?

By Timon Weller on July 3, 2010

automated bloggingOmg.. How many automated plugins are there out there now..  (Names not mentioned entirely for privacy, but anyone that is familiar with them will know what i mean.. )  So many promising lots of traffic, great SEO and all the other marketing features any get rich quick traffic scheme could offer. Let me tell you the hard truth – THEY SUCK for TRAFFIC.. They do not get you lots of traffic and automated blogging programs are not a get rich quick system..

Please do not see this as a harsh response, the reason i speak so bluntly is because they waste so many peoples time in investing in these paid automated blogging programs..

Three Reasons to Avoid Automated Blogging?

So, let me tell you three reasons why you should avoid these types of Automated Blogging software or plugins..

  1. Duplicate Content - First one being the Duplicate content issue.. They all create copies of existing articles or videos or things that already exist so the search engines will filter your duplicate pages out.. This means no or little search engine traffic.. Yes, it is true search engines like regular updated content, but they do not like copies of other content out there. They like unique well written content.. Because of this automated Blogging scripts are not traffic pullers..
  2. Non Unique Blogging - The second is that it creates a non unique blog, meaning hardly anyone will subscribe to it or return visits will be rare.. I mean think about what will happen when they see it is just a non original copy from somewhere else. Also maybe they would prefer to read from the source of the content as well..?
  3. No Value for Customer - The third and most important reason to me for avoiding using automated blogging software is that it adds no value to the Internet in any way or to the customer (reader in the case of blogs). If everyone ran a copy of someone else’s low grade content then what does that say about passion or trying to succeed based on some other persons work.. It also asks questions about copyright issues (and many more, DMCA) if any of the content is not posted correctly by the automated blogging software..

My last thoughts are that automated blogging software is so similar to many article directories out there. They never worked well as a way to create a successful online business unless you are a top article directory.. The main reason being unless you are a top dog article directory like Ezine Articles or Go Articles then all you are doing is spreading more of the same duplicate content… You also risk the fact that when search engines see this (indexing) they could possible penalize or filter out (filter out meaning search engine secondary index) these low grade sites..

Okay so, what do you think of Automated Blogging software..? If you enjoyed this post then please tweet or subscribe to this blog for regular updates (feedburner). I promise no duplicate content. Only unique content written by an experienced online blogger trying to help others succeed at there own online journey.. Thanks for reading..

Free Ways to Make Money Online & Earn Extra with Survey Sites

By Timon Weller on June 6, 2010

Free Ways to Make Money Online with Survey SitesWhat a long title hey.. In this post i wanted to go into the concept of making money online from free Survey Sites.. When i first looked into survey sites the first thing i noticed was that some are so low paying that they are a complete waste of time.. I did however notice some that pay very well.. One being Cashcrate which has been paying me monthly since first promotion of there program.. If you are looking for the best rewards and survey style site then Cashcrate is the best.. Better described as a rewards program though.. OKAY so back to my post..

Earn Extra Money with Survey Sites…

Duplication is the Key!

In this post it is about what you can do when you choose these sites for extra money.. Instead of choosing one for making money online, use 10 or more and duplicate your earnings. That way your not just making a small amount of money from one survey site a month.. You could be making 20 to 30 dollars a month times 10 to get a more reasonable extra income..

10 x $30 = $300 a month.. (Optimistic View)

I know this concept is not rocket science or really even a new idea, however so many online marketers (lets not say names..) sell this concept of making money alone.. So now i offer it to you free, duplication is the key to pay to do sites.. Do many, some webmasters claim over $500 a month from this concept alone..

Earn Extra with Survey Sites

Okay so to Begin.. How to Make Money from Free Survey Sites – Reward Sites?

STEP PLAN

1. Sign up to as many as possible.. One I highly recommend is Cashcrate – Paying from referrals as well as to do tasks..

2. Open a Paypal Account – Most pay via Paypal and if they do you want to be able to except Paypal

3. Promote the referral ones on your blog or website..

4. Do tasks on each Survey Site Regular to get your monthly income.. Maybe add the sign in section on each Survey site to a Bookmark folder and then that way you can just choose open all in your browser which will save you alot of time which means more money..

5. Open a email account focused just on your survey or reward efforts. That way your can focus your time better for your efforts and know all emails are in relation to this.. A free yahoo email is fine..

6. Lastly and most importantly… Eliminate which survey or rewards sites that pay little and add more until you have a list of regular paying programs.. Eliminate and add basically..

7. Spend your Survey Site – Reward Site Money.. FUN!!

Make Money Online with Survey Sites

Are Reward Sites or Survey Sites a Free Way to Riches..?

I don’t think so, unless you focus on the referral based earnings programs such as Cashcrate. This is because all these programs are based on time.. They are definitely a way to make extra money for basic tasks but do not see them as a get rich thing.. They involve a bit of effort, so see them more like a job instead of wealth creation..

Another aspect to look at with doing survey sites or reward sites is even if the money is small per program it adds up in time.. Imagine after a year of earnings what you could do with the money..???
