How to One-up Your Affiliate Competition

by Leave a Comment

Bloggers are authority figures in their niche topic… or at least they strive to be. In being so, we are always on the lookout for new information and inspiration. We Google search our topic words and when we see another blog writing about the same stuff as us, we look for inspiration from that blog. We sign up for the newsletters of the sites we admire and we follow the links in the emails we get from them. They either maintain our interest or they eventually fall short of our expectations. This is true of everyone who has ever signed up for a newsletter.

I was very skeptical of this one, because I discovered it by way of a program built around it, and that program utilized upsells in order to make more money. But I peeled back the layers, so to speak, and I discovered that program built around it is completely unnecessary. I may try it at some point in the future but if I do, that will be the basis for another article.

Automate Your Accounts

by Leave a Comment

Account automation is not about willpower. It is a means of replacing willpower. Willpower is the unsuccessful strategy that is the reason why so many are in debt these days. We are learning as a culture that, for most of us, willpower does not work. But, automating your accounts does work. It removes money you should be saving from your checking account just after it is direct deposited, so you cannot easily spend it. Letting the power of automation work for you means saving time as well as money.

In this credit based society, being in debt is usually thought of as a normal fact of life for many Americans, and it is… but it doesn’t need to be. Being in debt and/or having a poor credit rating WILL hurt you financially in the long-run more than you might realize.

The inverse is of course that saving regularly and having an excellent credit rating will give you more financial freedom & self-sufficiency.

The Cornerstones of Passive Online Income

by Leave a Comment

I recall years ago, an article in the September 1986 issue of Omni Magazine (a great science and science fiction magazine I’m sad is no longer with us)… an article about the ideal future house… a “living breathing” house that was “aware” of its inhabitants and their individual preferences. It had all the automatic computer environmental controls, etc. The modern household is not too far off from the one I was amazed by in the Omni article.

How NOT To Succeed At Making Money Online

by Leave a Comment

People know that business success depends on ‘best practices’, the buzzword among businesses for a model code of conduct that consistently produces desired results. Another fact is that the way the human brain works, people pay more immediate attention to negative experiences. This is called ‘negativity bias’ and it is because our perceptions are more intimately tied into our “fight or flight” instinct than to the attention we pay to positive stimulus. So, I’ve decided to include a ‘Worst Practices’ category for this blog as a way of including the occasional post that serves to capitalize on the importance we place on negative comments and headlines. This is my first post to go in the ‘Worst Practices’ category.

The Basics of a Making a Niche Site

by Leave a Comment

What is a niche site? I guess the best way for me to put it is… a niche site is a site that seeks to avoid competition for search engine rankings. The idea is to find a keyword that enough people are typing into whatever search engine they are using (we’ll use Google since that is the most popular), but at the same time there are not too many sites using that keyword. The point of the niche site is to be on the first page of the Google search page when your chosen keyword is searched for.
