Automated OR Manual Submission to Directories

Sites can be submitted to directories in two ways - manually adding your site to individual directories one-by-one and second way is to use automated submission software to do the job. While it is true that automated submission will be able to submit your site details to thousands of directories in a very small time and also free, but the method suffers from the following disabilities.

Directories require the submitter to enter a few characters (Captcha) to identofy you as a genuine human being. This step is bound to be missed by the automated submission and hence your site will not be submitted to these directories.
Some directories also do not allow automated submissions because it has been seen that automated submission software sometimes dump spam onto these directories.
Even if your site manages to get submitted by the software, it may not be able to drill it down to the correct sub-category where your might attract maximum traffis - hence the whole exercise might be one in vain.

So in light of the above it is most advisable that manual submission is the way forward, but it being so much time consuming you would be better advised to out-source the submission process. There is also the question of expertise here, a person having good experience in the field might be able to submit your site to most popular categories and avoid dull ones, bringing good traffic in return.

Protect your Adsense Code

You may not be aware but there is a potential danger to your adsense account. There is a possibility that someone might copy your adsense code onto a website with inappropriate code that may damage your whole adsense account.

This has happened at least to one person atleast who has acknowledged this. There may be more who have not reported it.

This is quite frightening if you think seriously, all your hard work can go down the drain if someone decides to hurt you real bad. But don't worry yourself to death - there is help at hand. Recently adsense added a new feature to Google Adsense Program.

Adsense has a new tab called "Allowed Sites". The two options under this tab are;


Allow any site to show ads for my account
Only allow certain sites to show ads for my account
In the second option you can any domain or sub-domain to your list of approved sites. If anyone tries to paste your code to any site other than the above list, the adsense ads will appear but you will not get any revenue from the clicks or even count impressions. Here I and many other similar thinking bloggers beg to differ from Google Adsense Program. A better option would have been to only show PSA's. Anyway Google has thought this to be right for them and this is how it works for now. So I think everybody should use this feature and protect their adsense account.

How to Setup an Adsense Account?

Before you apply for an Adsense Account, please make sure that you have a suitable website with enough content that has never been applied for Adsense before. In term of suitability, your site should be free from porn information and adult content. Apart from that, you site should not be made solely for displaying adsense ads. Anyway, just read the TOS and see whether your site is eligible. In other words, your site should not be content-free.

Then, go to Google Adsense Signup page: https://google.com/adsense/g-app-single-1 and start applying in Adsnese. Provide your information including mailing address, your site URL etc. For those who wanna recieve check, you can change your mailing address anytime, no worry.Afterwards, Google need to review your site and decide your site whether is suitable for putting adsense or not. Normally, it only takes you 2-3days. However, for certain occassion, it will take as long as 10 days. Just be patient, and wait for that period. However, some people still say they do not revieve any reply from Google after a week. Nevermind, email them for such situation. They are welcome for all email enquiry.

Google has its own blogging service - Blogger.com (http://www.blogger.com/). You can start a blog on Blogger.com with any topics you like - and it is completely free.

How blogs from india make money from online (internet)

I wanted to know how blogs and websites from India monetize themselves.

So I chose bunch of most popular websites/blogs from India which are written in English and also I chose some popular/not so popular non english websites/blogs.

Most popular English websites or blogs:

Without big surprise, most popular english websites and blogs (except rediff) from India are using adsense to monetize their blog or websites and also they get their advertisements directly from advertisers. In some websites I see advertisements from CPX-Interactive, but not in primary advertisement slots.

So from above, one can understand that adsense is the best performer though a blog or websites traffic is based on India.

Most popular non-english websites or blogs:

I took one famous website from each of the following languages Tamil, Telugu, Bengali and Malayalam.

These websites fill their primary advertisement slots with direct advertisers and the secondary slots goes mainly to adsense.

Not so popular non-english websites or blogs:

Blogs which are written in some of the regional Indian language or in Hindi have hard time in monetizing. Because adsense doesn't really deliver ads to those blogs, though they deliver to some, the PPC is quite low.

3. Let your visitors know about your email address or even telephone number on your website.

4. Provide an option to your visitors to view your website offline. You can offer it by autoresponder or printer friendly version.

Search engines are good sources of high quality targeted traffic to your website in long term. So you don’t want to be blacklisted by them.

Identify what actions you want people to take when they are visiting your website that will make you profitable and then organize your site accordingly to entice people to take that action. If you main purpose is to earn money with cost-per-click ads programs such as AdSense, YPN, etc; you’ll want your visitors to click on your CPC ads to earn money.

Make money by sharing photos

Shareapic is a website where one can make money online by sharing/uploading photos. There are plenty of such websites and I registered with almost all of them and did upload few photos(few months ago). Now I am going to do a kind of small review about all such websites. So now I start with shareapic.

First of all shareapic doesn't allow users to upload,

- Full Nudity pictures
- Partial nudity (except for regular bikinis with no thongs) pictures
- Pictures with thongs
- See through shirts / nipples / nipple slips
- Underwear pictures of any kind- Upskirt pictures
- Obscene pictures- Offensive pictures
- Suggestive pictures

How much shareapic pay?

Their website gives the following statement regarding the question "
Earnings vary each month based off the amount of income Shareapic generates from advertising. Once this number is finalized a percentage of that is distributed throughout Shareapic members depending on how many image views they have accrued.

For example, if in month one Shareapic calculates to distribute $1,000 to our members, we will first tally up the total number of image views for that month. Using these two numbers we can determine the respective payouts for each user. If there were a total of 500,000 image views for the month, image views will equate to $0.002 each (1,000 divided by 500,000), or $2 per 1000 image views. If you're posting lots of pics in forums, MySpace or eBay, you can see how easy it is to earn quite a bit of money!

Although we do not disclose the revenue share, we do display the amount paid for previous pay periods in the members section. Our goal is to pay out enough to keep users happy, while still being able to sustain development costs, hosting fees, salaries, etc".Payments are made through paypal and the minimum payout amount is $20.00.You are allowed to post your links to forums, blogs and social networking websites.

My review about shareapic:

I did just upload 2 pictures in shareapic and it just took few mins for that. Then I did nothing, no more uploading, no marketing. I completely forgot about them after that. Just today I visited them again and was bit surprised. because those 2 photos had around 50 views and my earning was around 2 cents. So, if I have uploaded at least photo a day, I would have made at least few dollars. So now I have decided to do that. At least photo a day and will review again after a month.
