Forum Marketing - The Only Method You Need To Make Great Money Online

In this article you are going to learn why I sincerely believe that Forum Marketing is the only method you need to make good money online. While you can use other methods to support it, you should be wary of becoming a "jack of all trades and a master of none." If you want the paycheck of a true master, then you must become one, and I am going to share with you three points on why Forum Marketing should be your first choice when you decide that you really want to earn real money online. If you really think about these three reasons, you will agree with me.
Are you ready? Here are the three reasons:
Reason #1: Quick Money
Making money online can be difficult, painstaking work that takes a long time to pay off. However, there are some very quick ways to make money through Forum Marketing. I made my first sale on my first day, after making only four posts with affiliate promotional links in them. A lot of other people have had similar results. Of course the money is not steady, you need to build a list and a real business if you want steady money. But if you need to make money very quickly, for example within a week, forums are absolutely the way to go.
Reason #2: Long Term Money
Even more important for me is that forums are among the best ways to make good, long-term money. Many so-called experts say that forums have been around almost as long as the Internet, and they are dead wrong. Forum Marketing and Article Marketing have been around for thousands and thousands of years before electricity, and even more so computers and the Internet. The concept of people getting together to talk about things they have in common is truly ancient, and clever marketers have always taken advantage of these groups to promote their agenda and their products or services. What is so powerful about Forum Marketing on the Internet is that for the first time you can simultaneously be involved in literally dozens of forums as the same time, getting your message out to more people than ever before in history.
Reason #3: Multiple Paths to Money
Of course another wonderful reason for marketing in forums, just as in the offline world, is that there are tons of ways to make money. Many people start by selling affiliate products, while others develop their own products or strive to drive traffic to various other money making tools. Personally, I most prefer to use them to drive traffic to my list and sell them my own products, but there are many times when the opportunity to promote an affiliate product opens up, and of course I am in position to take advantage of that as well. Finally, perhaps the most profitable way to make money from forums is to run your own! In addition to having complete control over the forum, you can actually sell the advertising space for steady profit as well.

Cheap Business Web Hosting - Find Web Hosting for Less

Cheap business web hosting is easy to find these days..if you know where to look. Technology has enabled hundreds of reputable, cheap business web hosting companies to provide their services for all sizes and types of businesses. Unfortunately, many hosting companies come and go without earning a single dime in profit. This article will help you identify reputable, discount web hosts that will provide the best cheap business web hosting services for every dollar your business plans to spend on website hosting.
Do A WhoIs Lookup
A fast and reliable way to look up any cheap business web hosting company is to find their main web address and perform a WhoIs Lookup on it. A WhoIs Lookup gives you all of the details of a specific web address at the click of a button. Important information like the date of creation for a website and the expiration date for the web address can be found by doing a simple WhoIs Lookup. A WhoIs search is absolutely free to do. You can find a number of websites that offer WhoIs lookup services by typing the phrase "whois" into your favorite Internet search engine. The search should take less than a few seconds to complete and will display the information to you when the search is done. Look for things that you believe make a reputable hosting company, such as the length of time since they first created their website or even the company address and state in which they do business. Doing your research on possible cheap web hosting services will pay off in the long run.
Cheap Pricing Plans
If you're looking for a cheap web hosting service that's capable of hosting your small business website, odds are you can find a very solid hosting company for a pretty cheap price. The monthly and yearly prices for business website hosting services have come down considerably in recent years. At the time of writing this article, there are at least three reputable, established website hosting companies that offer their hosting services for less than five dollars per month if you purchase at least a years-worth of their hosting service in advance. If you're the month-to-month type of small business, you should be able to find a good web hosting plan for less than fifteen dollars per month. Basically, if you're looking at a potential hosting company and they're trying to charge you more than fifteen dollars per month for their hosting services, then pack up your bags and move on. There are better web hosting pastures out there.
Compare Hosting Service Reviews
There are a number of popular websites out there that offer free reviews of the best and most popular business services that can be found online. Some of these websites offer ratings specifically for small business services that are available online. These review websites would be a great place to start if you're looking to find reputable business web hosting reviews for free. Most of the ratings and reviews are fairly recent and add an extra layer of protection for business owners who are unsure of what services are currently available and which services are the best for their type of business. If you end up choosing a hosting company off of one of these websites, you can sleep easy at night knowing you made a good and healthy decision for your business.

The Basics of Domain Name Flipping for Profit

The URL of any website is called its Domain Name. Flipping is the art of buying something cheaply and then selling it quickly for a profit. Buy it and flip it - simple! The difficult part is figuring out how to pick a domain name among the millions of available names. Here are the three biggest factors in picking a Domain Name to flip: Demand for the name, the Extension, and Pricing.
Desire for a specific Domain Name is crucial. The best names have keywords in them that people are looking for. This is why Domains like Buy.com, pets.com, bestbuy.com, and shoes.com are worth so much. These Domains are short and describe exactly what you are getting from their domain. Of course, it looks like all the good Domain Names have already been taken. Wrong! New domains are being registered every day.
What you need to do is figure out what topics or keywords people are searching for and integrate those words into your domain name. So, when your Domain has a keyword in it that people are searching for, it makes sense that people will naturally be attracted to that url. Google Trends and Google Keyword Tool are free and can help you figure out what the latest hot topics are. You can look through your own search history and see what YOU have been searching for. If you searched for it, chances are that others are making the same searches too.
Once you have about ten keywords or topics that you think might make a good domain name, now is when we search to see if the domain is already taken, and if so, what we can do about it. For example, I just went to bluehost - you can use your favorite registration company of course - and looked up murphybed, because I want to start a site on murphy beds. Murphybed.com is taken. Bluehost - and many other registrars make suggestions for alternate names - so bluehost suggested a bunch of different names with murphybed in them such as: murphybeddesign, HotMurphyBed, AllMurphyBed, MurphyBedGroup, topmurphybed and so on. The list of names can get large and complicated fast, so I like to put them in a spreadsheet, along with my rating of the name, the domain extension, and cost.
In addition to the Domain Name itself, the extension of the Domain is critical. I know a lot of people who won't purchase anything that doesn't have a.com extension, but there are many extensions available, including.net,.info,.org,.biz, and so on. There are no restrictions on those extensions, so you can use a.org even if you aren't an organization. I like to stick with the top 3 -.com,.net, and.org. The best one is.com.
The pricing of a domain for sale is variable and completely up to the seller. Typically the.coms have a higher value, but any website that has an easy to read domain name, with a major extension can get traffic, and therefore have value.
So now that you have a domain name registered, it's time to make some money on it! Put it up for auction on a site like eBay.com. I looked today and there were 71 pages of domain names for sale. Another option would be a specialty auction site like sedo.com which bills itself as the World's Largest Domain Marketplace. Put your Domains up for sale and keep track of what sells and how much it sells for. You will find that there are some keyword modifiers that you can add to most any topic that makes it worth a lot more.
Give it a shot and let me know how it goes!
