GoodMoneyBlog.com

I was typing in random URLs and I came across a good money blog.  In fact, the name of the blog was GoodMoneyBlog.com.  I wanted to focus in on one recent blog entry in particular.  The cost of relocation entry which details how taking another job in a different city for more money doesn’t always mean you’re netting a profit.  The blogger gives a nice breakdown in a +/- function and in his example he moves to New York with a $20,000 pay increase but was still down $10,600 because of the financial drawbacks of NewYork.

WarriorForum.com

WarriorForum.com is a fantastic resource for getting online money making ideas and inspiration.  Many of the members have been successful at creating Internet revenue for years now.  The forum now offers a private section for premium online ideas without any substantive posts.  This is not to say the free part of the forum section is bad material, but the private forum has a better concentration of tremendous ideas.

New Google PR Unrythmic

The new Google pagerank seems to have bolstered better domain names and put less weight on linking.  In fact, based on what I’ve seen domains with more links were punished.  Unlike before, when there was more of a method to the PR madness, this update seems to send the message: Don’t get a bunch of links unnaturally.

Google and Digg Closer To Deal

Word on the web is Google may acquire Digg for a cool $200 million after on again off again negotiations.  The deal could still fall apart as there will still be weeks of finalizations that need to go through, but all signs point to another giant web business swallowed up by Google since the major points to the contract have all been agreed upon.  The merger could have been easily conceptualized as this makes complete sense.  Google loves the Digg voting system.

Offline and Online Money Blog

My powerful Money Blog intersects between saving money offline and online in this post. Did you know that virtually every product out there is capable of being discounted online through printable coupons or promo codes redeemable at online stores. With this knowledge you should rarely pay full price for electronics, books, toys, software, and other similar items. In essence, you can put money in your pocket just by taking a few minutes to browse around for the best deals at your favorite stores. Stores such as Bed Bath and Beyond, Bath and Body Works, Best Buy, Barnes and Nobles, Amazon, Kohls, Lowes, Sears, and The Sharper Image all offer discounts around the clock. Before you go out and shop, do a quick Google search and see if you can’t save money blog.

Money Blog Tips For Saving Cash

Save real cash following tips in this Money Blog. You have no idea how much money you and so many other people spend for gratuitous or unnecessary reasons. Realize that businesses want to charge you more than everything costs and every time you pay, it’s likely you’re not getting what that value represents. For the purposes of this money blog, let’s look at simply getting a soda at a restaurant. Sodas now run upward of $2 per person per meal at a sit down restaurant (sometimes even more). This may seem like a minuscule amount, but in the aggregate for a year, $2 can multiply in a hurry. If you go out to eat 100 times over 365 days, that’s $200 just in sodas. Make those sodas complimentary water and you just pocketed $200 over the course of the year. Adding up is how money works. Ever noticed how some people can live more comfortably on less? It’s because they are efficient. They maximize values and minimize costs. They use their time efficiently. They don’t pay top dollar for quick services or inconveniences. Back to the refreshments, bottled water out of a vending machine is $1.25. This cost is an astronomical jump over buying bottled water in bulk which can be as cheap as $0.16 cents a bottle. It is in these types of situations where the smart shopper will save more money and grow each time the efficiency battle is won against one who goes for the lazy, convenient, or novelty items. We will pick this discussion up in the next money blog.

New Money Blog

I’ve decided to change my money blog page. The site is getting a complete overhaul in both appearance and content. This blog will now be bursting through the seems with tips and commentary for making money everywhere - not just online. However, for all those who want a money blog dedicated solely to making money online, I have created makemoneyonlineblog.net. This will focus only on cash infusion with online matters. They will both be of high quality and be continually updated. If you are interested in partnering with these sites email me.

Money Blog: #2 on MSN search

Money Blog

Well that was fast. It’s apparent that MSN has a different formula for success than Google and Yahoo. I knew people were finding me from MSN but I didn’t think I was #2. Not this fast. I first started creating regular entries on this site about 45 days ago. To be number two in a major search engine for the pretty competitive term of “money blog” is a very nice surprise.

This is as good a time as any for my next tip. When writing your entries, start off with your keyword search term - like money blog up at the top. I do this about 50-75% of the time (depends on the blog). I don’t think it will necessarily hurt you, but it’s good to mix up your content and not repetitive. I also try to sprinkle it in throughout my blog entries. Think about it, you have the content there, so throw the word in. It’s not excessive keyword stuffing and it helps you become better indexed. Search engine robots are looking for this keyterm so even if you aren’t necessarily writing with it, try to punch it in almost all of your entries whether beginning, middle, or end. Then bold a few of them (not all) to emphasize the keywords are important.

Also, mix and match for variations. For example, this is a consistently updated blog for money.

Chitika Contacted Me

Chitika Premium

It wasn’t for this blog (although Forbes has inquired adding me to their ad program on moneyblogg) but a Chitika Director of Client Services emailed me today from my email on the site asking me to join Chitika premium.  The premium membership as supposedly gives the highest eCPM.  ECPM means the effective cost per thousand impressions. Here is how it is calculated:

(Total Earnings/Impressions) X 1,000

Anyways, I went ahead and applied.  It seems a stupid to have to apply when you are hand selected to be in the program, but I suppose they need the contact information.  I decided to give it a shot.  It really can’t hurt me on the blog - I make most of my money through networking and advertising within the industry so why not?  This would be a nice supplemental boost if effective and if it’s not I’ll have first hand research which I can relay to you.

Here is the email:

Hi - Name from Chitika here.  We are a leading online advertising network, specializing in monetizing US search engine traffic.

Your site - cccccccblogger.com - has similar characteristics to some of our most successful publishers (for example, ccccccblogger.com has ### pages indexed in Google).

Because of this, you should be able to earn a lot of revenue by using our Chitika|Premium ad program.  These ads are designed specifically to maximize the revenue from your US search engine traffic, and the publishers who are running them right now are seeing great results (our network average is around $2 eCPM, and on the high-end we have publishers earning $71 eCPM - your individual results will vary).

Make Money On The New Google Search Numbers

This type of information is extremely valuable.  Take advantage of it in the easiest way possible - domain names.  A .com domain name typically gets great results if even a half hearted attempt to create a decent site/blog is made.  Why?  Google sees the .com domain as an authority.  Think about it, who better to have the best content on a search than a .com website with those exact key words.  Of course this doesn’t work with parked pages, but if you put some effort, you’re going to appear on the first page.  I’ve done this time and again - pre and post Google search release.  Grab the domains with high search rates and the story rights itself.  Don’t go hog wild yet.  Just try it and thank me later.  Remember domain names add up.
