Review : Geazen affiliate network

muratos — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 15:20:25 +0000

Although we have just over three weeks testing Geazen, what little we’ve seen from this affiliate network is not like a lot of attention both to members and by the attractiveness of their campaigns and, more importantly, by the remuneration for same. For this reason, we decided to dedicate an entry to make money with your website or blog to the company, which also is Spanish to be exact.

We still think and Public Idess and Netaffiliation are superior platform for affiliate marketing, at least we are best run at us, but may eventually outgrow Geazen.

In terms of programs and campaigns as of June 2007 are underway, we started testing those BuyVip, Love and Primegaming Second, all we are running like a shot and it cost very little to reach 100 euros.

If you look at the statistical reports in formats Geazen there are five reports:
Quick Stats: showing a quick view of the track impressions, clicks, sales, and commissions for a period of time.
General Report: this report is ¨ possible to determine the trend of our transactions and campaigns on a graph and in traditional format (numbers).
Commissions: generates a list of all committees registered in the system.
Payments received: the typical report of payments received.
Report per channel: an interesting report showing statistics for each channel (channels must be previously set as indicated below).
Map Overlay: This report shows the distribution of our transactions distributed by countries.

They also have a couple of interesting advanced tools on the one hand are the channels that are created very easily and can then be selected when creating the HTML codes that integrate campaigns that later appear in the channel reports, and on the other side are two parameters that are SubIdTracking additional works similarly to the channels.

The functionality of the channels can be used, for example, determine the best location or size of a creative or ad on our website, so suffice it to create different channels for each ad size or location and then analyze the statistical data.

Finally, we can only mention that in Geazen measurable payments are made either by bank transfer or through PayPal, with a minimum payment of 50 euros (until they exceed $ 50 what is generated in a month accumulates to the next).

Earn money with Coguan AdShare, the market for advertisers, bloggers and webmasters

muratos — Thu, 22 Sep 2011 20:17:03 +0000

Can you imagine an online advertising marketplace where advertisers, bloggers and webmasters get together, which could negotiate the price of ads depending on their size and location on your website or blog? For AdShare Coguan was the first Spanish company to set up a market of this type, a website where bloggers and webmasters can make money selling advertising, and advertisers can select the blogs and websites where they want to put their ads.

An interesting option to earn money with Coguan AdShare is recommending the use of this tool to our friends, get $ 50 commission for each one of them to launch an advertising campaign (so if any of you reading this article, you take the decision to use the services of the online advertising market, please send me an email to webdinero [at] gmail [dot] com so that you can recommend and take those 50 Eurytus of time, the recommendation can only attend to through a web form within the AdShare Coguan).

The operation for bloggers and webmasters is quite simple, we must enlist our blogs and websites, as well as announcements (AdUnits) we are willing to put in them, indicating their size, type (CPC, CPM or sponsorship), location guidance and price. In the event that we have a network with many blogs, to be a rather tedious task, you can download an Excel template, populate it with the necessary information and send it to the support group so that they take care to discharge our blogs and their AdUnits relevant.

Once our blogs and websites are accepted, we will begin to receive offers from advertisers, the advertiser can stick or not the price that we have indicated, remember that it is a market where prices are negotiable advertising, if we want to accept the price offered then the advertising campaign, otherwise we might refuse to start negotiations directly or by raising the price offered by an advertiser.

AdShare Coguan now works in beta, but I will say that our experience working with them is good. Most of the offers we received are CPC (Cost per Click), some very interesting to 0.80 euros per click, but most do not usually rise from 0.20 per click. Offers to CPM (cost per thousand impressions) are less numerous, but if your blog site does not receive many visitors, are not very interesting. For us the most interesting option is the sponsorship (fixed monthly payment), having received an interesting offer for our blog on PL / SQL (this is the announcement of Nominalia by giving us 70 euros per month).

I think the idea they have had in Coguan AdShare is very interesting and I sincerely hope they do very well, mostly because if this happens, will be synonymous with the bloggers who work with them are getting make money using your system . And you know, if you want to mount an online advertising campaign Coguan, contact me and beat me to recommending the 50 euros offered by recommendation.

The basics of on-Page SEO

muratos — Thu, 22 Sep 2011 11:13:15 +0000

SEO means “Search Engine Optimization”. But this definition is not only ambiguous but also encompasses so many activities that need sorting out and explaining. Among the actions and activities classiefied as SEO are used to differentiate between On Page and Off Page SEO.

On Page SEO,, or called as onsite SEO as well; is the set of actions we take within our own page to optimize it for search engines. Each time you change a title, a text or a template, each time we create a new section or a new product on our website we affect the On Page SEO. Every time we create links on other websites for our pages, put a tweet or comment on do follow blogs and forums, this is Off Page SEO.

So we can say that On Page SEO is pure, and we do not play with the strength of our site, its relationship to other pages or its life … simply manipulate our search engine to power as that of “possess” that interests us most.

On Page SEO in the hundreds of factors involved, why would realize how many? Never finish. The important thing is actually finding a logic model that lays the foundation with which to work. Understand a number of concepts with which our SEO On Page is secured. Then, without a doubt will have to add details and tricks but they can never be as important as the foundation of everything. I personally am quite tired of hearing about the SEO On Page is the “ALT” of images or content of the “meta-description” … optimization techniques that are rare, but they alone do not represent even a thousandth part of what is covered on page SEO.

In the end the easiest way to understand how to make websites with good SEO On Page 3 is to build on basic concepts.

1) Indexing: What Google has been stored in its index about us? How can I help you have it all if you do not already have it?

2) Authority: Which of my pages within the site that I am positioning are more important? Why home is more important than chips?

3) Semantics: What or who speaks my site? What or who speak each of my pages? How do I manipulate to mean what I want?

From each of these points or a combination of several emerging techniques that allow us to optimize our website according to our interests. Therefore it is necessary to answer all these questions.

Indexing and SEO On Page
Google (and all browsers) uses spiders to crawl content. These are programs that are jumping from page to page tracking and classifying all the content they find. Spiders are discovering the content and classified so we have to understand to control indexing.

How do I find information?

The spiders jump from site to site and page to page through the links they find. This is the first point: if a page has no link that leads her on a site I have visited before spiders will never be indexed and search engines will never know they exist. Therefore we must take into account that for each page you want to position must always be at least one link pointing to it and positioned on a page.

Another point related to the first is that they get tired of jumping spiders. They feed on the authority (importance) of the pages and if at any time if they stay longer to follow links. If we imagine a spider comes to our site recently created for our home (and therefore with little authority / importance) we see that going in your path, come, read, jump to several links that will have even less authority and of these others with even less … If the road is too long to jump and leave the deeper pages of the site will not be read. So our role is to ensure that links are not too far for spiders always come to index our content. Always remember that the greater importance of page more effort we can demand of them.

And this theory does it apply only to this? No way! Then I show some items that illustrate specific details that we have in mind when indexing:

How to force indexing of new pages with external links

How to get indexed pages in seconds

Making Ajax content indexed

Authority and SEO On Page

The authority is an abstract value that we understand how important it is for search engines each of our pages. We can find several references to indicators that “in theory” speak of its importance: the old PageRank from Google, Yahoo or even TrustRank invented as measurements of MajesticSEO ACRank. In the end none of these values ??should be taken as absolute (a PageRank of 8 indicates that the page never has authority, necessarily qualitatively better than 3), and we understand the authority as an abstract value where they have room for words such as “enhancing the authority SEO “and” gain authority SEO “but we can never know how much authority exactametne of each site and comparisons between webs of authority will only be possible in very obvious. Apart from this we also have the authority and the Authority On Page Off Page and we can differentiate between that gives us our own website and we won thanks to other websites.

The basis of the authority, most importantly, though not all, is the number of references that have a page from others. In other words, the number of links that point. This is the reason that the home and the categories tend to have more authority than the rest of the pages: there is always a menu on every page has links to them, and off page ‘other’ websites more often point to the domain that specific items. Therefore, our way of manipulating OnPage authority is to manipulate the links that take you from one place to another. There are techniques to give more importance to remove all or even most of the links so we can really make important page we want to manipulate the base “interlinking” of our site.

Semantics and SEO On Page

Semantics is the meaning for our site search engine and our pages. Google analyzes the text of all our pages and decide which are relevant for different words (keywords) that a user can search in the search. We understand that especially affects the semantics of individual page level. For each of our pages (files, categories, posts) is calculated semantic relevance. The site is at the end as the whole semantics of every page and just making a topic on the page speaks (and within which the appropriate semantic make more sense).

The semantics, however abstract it sounds mathematically calculated and that means that in the end what works best to manipulate it using the exact search phrase that we want to position the title and main title of the page and writing meanings of texts with very close to this phrase almost repetitive. So what now is usually done to handle the semantics of a page is choosing a specific keyword for which to position and repeat this at strategic locations on the page (title, headline, first paragraph, etc …) . Aside from there looking for different ways of expressing the same meaning but with a natural language (and not systematic repetitions as a few years ago).

The delicate work, once you understand all the points that influence the semantics is like choosing between all the possibilities that each of our keyword-specific pages that we will position and results appear only for those pages similar to semantic keyword you searched for the user. In this work we call “choice of keywords”.

Moreover, after this election is how to make a web search engine aimed to understand perfectametne everything we do. That is, learn web standards, intuition is interpreted as the search and act accordingly.

Then a few items related to the choice and manipulation of the semantics of our pages:

Knowing the traffic that can bring us a keyword

Sources that make keywords

we mean by “content” to talk about seo

SEO-oriented layout

How to use SEO h2 and h3

Microformats and how they affect the results of google

Conclusion

These are the foundations of OnPage Seo. It is clear that from here we need much more research on these three points and on keywords in order to take full advantage of the search engines to our pages.

In summary:

- We introduce seekers to get all our pages in their databases

- We should prioritize other authority over those pages that are going to bring more users and more profitable

- We must study and choose the best possible keyword for each of all the pages that make up our site and then direct our pages to this. Only in this way we want to get visits

- With all this we will have our site ready … but this does not suffice. Now it’s starting to make offpage shares climbing more and more positions in the SERPS.

To finish, leaving you a chart that summarizes many possible actions in On Page SEO and remind you that this is only part of SEO, we also have the Off Page SEO and a wide world of actions and considerations that do not fall under this classification .

BLOGGING: How to Create Momentum Reach Tipping Point

muratos — Wed, 21 Sep 2011 05:47:44 +0000

Would you like to receive many RTs and tweets directed at you? Would you like your items to receive dozens of comments? If you work hard and well you will get it, but first you must create momentum until you reach the tipping point. Here I explain step by step how to do it.

The A-List bloggers do not comment on other blogs, do not initiate conversations on Twitter, or go in search of people to make an interview (unless it’s with another A-List blogger). Why? Because you do not need, and have the loyalty of its audience and is already bulky enough to prove that their projects are very profitable. Why go out to look for others when they all come to you? It would be a waste of time that can not afford, so all they do is occasionally answer when someone mentioned in a post or a tweet.

Tipping Point
The turning point is a time when you stop being who goes in search of others going through now to be the ones who are looking for you. That is, you go from acting because you need to act because you want to. All A-List Bloggers, in the beginning, have had to fight every day to make themselves known, but once they have become known enough for others have moved to a more passive position. Now is the others who come to them, these are limited to read (some) and select with whom to interact.

In one article the A-List bloggers can receive on average between 50 and 100 comments, some 100 RTs and as many likes of Facebook. You only have enough cone so as to spend all day answering comments and thanking RTs. Instead of spending all day to respond, as they know they are loyal to their audience, what they do is spend their time on more productive tasks. Remember Pareto’s Law? Then apply them consistently: dedicate their effort to make that 20% of tasks that produce 80% of the results. They have crossed the tipping point: they have been sending comments to other blogs to receive them, have gone to begin talks on Twitter to be recipients of these, have gone to RTs to receive them, have gone from doing interviews to receive, and well with other examples.

No doubt that comment and reply is much easier and more convenient to go in search of a good blog and then leave a comment on this value. The latter forces you to look for the blog, read your article, think and write a good comment. The comment has to be of value if you want to serve something. A main objective commentary the attention of those who read to drive traffic to your blog or blog administrator to know you. Once you reach the tipping point things will come shot. With hardly do anything and everything seems to work alone: ??more comments, more replies, more RTs, more likes more trackbacks, etc.. At this point and only have to worry about the content you post and weighty things as your projects or collaborations with other bloggers.

How to reach the tipping point
To reach the first turning point must create momentum. What I mean by creating momentum? So basically is to see how the results of your blog grow every day. It’s like a snowball as it gathers speed down the mountain and it gets bigger and bigger. The same happens with this. Once your blog starts rolling is that the turning point is near. The good thing about reaching a tipping point is that the effort you devote to create content and audience get significantly reduced. At the tipping point and you can afford to publish only one article per week and your audience will not diminish.

But if you begin to create momentum (gain speed with your blog) so that your commitment is to reduce or slow dry you know what will happen? Well, stop moving the wheel. Have missed this great opportunity to reach the tipping point and who knows whether to become an A-List blogger.

Getting to it is not easy. All A-List blogger has had to slog for good before they get where they are today. But all have one thing in common: when they identified that they were creating momentum rather than put a slow down gear.

The advice I give you if you want to reach the tipping point is: Once you are generating momentum (ie, when your blog grows day by day) you should tie your belt and put that up for more. Plug the nitrous and put the machine to 1000 revolutions per minute because the line is near. It is then the more you have to interact with your audience, that’s when you have to publish more articles and of good quality is when you have to break your horns commenting on other blogs, and that’s when you have to be more active than ever in your social networks. It means that you have to take hours and hours if you want to reach the tipping point. But once you get ready to enjoy the journey because they will all freeways.

How to know when you’ve reached the tipping point
It’s easy, you’ve reached the tipping point where all or any of the following are given:

No longer articles with the same frequency as you did before but you’re getting more or less the same huge amount of visits.
You do not answer any comment about lack of time but the comments you get do not stop growing.
And just respond to people you do RT but these are maintained or are increasing day by day.
You just do not you link to other blogs but instead you’re still getting a lot of trackbacks.
How to create momentum
Here is the crux of the matter. But momentum is no way to get to the point of inflection. I’m going to make it easy, momentum is created through hard work, quality, consistency and promotion.

But you see I am a good person I give you a more detailed list of things you can do to create momentum:

Many articles published at least four a week. The best days to do so are Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Test yourself different days and check the results.
Post quality content. It undercuts your brand with shoddy goods. The articles need not be long if you want or can not. Can be short but always quality. Watch Seth Godin.
Go down to the trenches of the blogosphere and start leaving comments on blogs important value in your niche. Let The more comments the better. If your comment is the first best. Join a list of the times you posted on these blogs and the first to comment estate.
Be active on Twitter and Facebook. Make RTs of links that share your followers, leave comments of value in Facebook pages are bloggers in your niche, keep your active Facebook page, start many conversations as you can in Twitter, and many more.
I recommend you read this other article: How to socialize and Step Twitter Followers Earn More
Promote each and every one of the content you post.
Systematically applied in your content SEO techniques. Optimize your blog that is better positioned on Google and other search engines. In another article I will tell you everything you need to know about SEO and how to apply on your behalf. Be aware of it.
Most of the articles you publish in your blog articles should be long haul. Do not abuse the short haul items.
Launch digital products helps a lot to build momentum. For example, do a webinar (an online course free), get a free ebook, etc.
Enlarge your subscriber list and make sure you have a good relationship with them. To do this, send them once a week and exclusive quality content that only they can see, from time to ask them questions about, let them polls, etc..
It publishes articles on other blogs that have a lot more audience than you have in yours (this is known as “guest posts”). The problem, in blogs Hispanics do not usually allow guests posts. In contrast, in other blogs in English style is long and is the best tool is to create momentum. As I say, in the Spanish blogosphere do not think you give good results but try. If you find some important blog in Spanish (top 70,000 in Alexa) that accepts guests posts let me know.
Although there are more things you can do to create momentum that I have quoted these are the most important. There are few, it is important that you roll up your sleeves and get to work on them day after day after day after day, and so on.

Conclusion
Nobody said being an A-List blogger, with all the advantages that entails, was easy. You know what they say, something like, something hard. You want interviews, publishing a book, giving talks at conferences, meet influential people, work with them and making money hand over fist with your business? So get to work day in and day out as never before done.

How to select keywords based on popularity?

muratos — Mon, 19 Sep 2011 15:08:32 +0000

Today I’d like to share a great tool from Google that lets us know what the terms are most popular on the Internet in recent years.

But why should we know what the best terms? Quite simply, every article we publish must be thought of as a gateway for individuals to our blog, ie, each item you think we should optimize the getting is located on the top of the search terms we select words .

If we select the best terms or keywords, writing an article on SEO we thought most likely to increase traffic to our website and therefore our revenues. Which is why we decided to create a blog or website is not it?

The name of the tool that made ??us is for Google to provide Google Trends.

Google Trends is a Google Labs tool that shows the most popular search terms in the recent past.

Google Trends charts how often represent a particular search is performed in several regions of the world and in several languages. The horizontal axis of the graph represents time (from sometime in 2004) and the vertical axis represents the frequency with which the term has been sought globally. It also allows the user to compare the volume of searches between two or more terms. An additional feature of Google Trends is a chance to show news related to your search term above the graph, showing how events affect the popularity.

A key for SEO is to select the best keywords or at least the most relevant. It is sad to see how many people develop excellent articles which unfortunately very few people access them. Although, can be written with excellent quality, but lack of SEO most likely nobody can find, let alone make money with your blog.

Here is the importance of knowing how to properly use this powerful but simple tool. The truth is not very difficult to use. All we do is put the search terms you want to compare and ready. It’s more work to perform the analysis and compare more keywords.

A tip: do not obsess with search and compare each of the keywords or terms that you selected. Over time you can do so in a faster and more convenient.

About This Edition

New Features

Chapters 2 and 3 are completely rewritten and reorganized, focusing on the description of one variable at a time, and relationships between variables. Both chapters have more coverage of categorical variables, as well as new and more interesting data sets in the examples. Many of the problems in previous editions were deleted or updated, and a number of brand new problems were added for relevance to current statistical analysis. A problem guide is available to instructors showing the context of each of the “data” problems, and it also shows the correspondence between problems in this edition and problems in the previous edition.

The previous edition’s Chapter 4 is renamed Chapter 17, “Importing Data into Excel,” and is completely rewritten with its section on Excel tables located in Chapter 2. (Previous edition chapters 5-17 were renumbered 4-16.)

The book is still based on Excel 2007, but notes about changes in Excel 2010 have been added where they apply. Specifically, there is a small section on the new slicers for pivot tables, and there are several mentions of the new statistical functions (although the old functions still work).

Each chapter now has 10-20 more consistent and relevant “Conceptual Questions” in the end-of-chapter sections.

The first two linear programming examples in Chapter 13 (replacing the former Chapter 14) are replaced by two product mix models, where the second builds on the first. The previous “diet” model was overly complex as a first linear programming example.

Several chapter-opening vignettes are replaced with newer and more interesting ones and there are now many short “fundamental insights” throughout the chapters. These insights are designed to allow the students to step back from the details and see the really important ideas.

All updated screenshots and accompanying explanations to reflect Excel 2007 and updated add-ins. Tips on Excel 2010 have been added where applicable. This edition now provides access to Excel add-in software via an access code to a Premium Online Content Website for every student purchasing a new book.

Instructors’ Resource CD: PowerPoints, and Solutions, Case, and Example files have been updated to reflect the core text 4th edition. The Test Bank has been updated with new questions and is now offered in ExamView testing software.
