Chapter 6: Free membership dating sites
Synopsis
There is a lot of free membership dating sites on the internet today and understating what they are really all about will help the prospective client decide if this style of sites is suitable for their intended use.
Free dating sites are usually filled with members who are not really extremely serious about finding and making the one commitment to a lasting partnership.
Most of the members sign up at these sites just to “try” their luck, while others sign up to make new friends and form interesting liaisons, but the expectations are usually nominal and this makes the site very wide based and lack any form of discrimination.
Free Sites
Free membership sites usually don’t have very stringent policies in place and thus the protection feature is not really a prominently expected or required aspect of the sign up exercise. In this case the member will not be assured that the information provided is honest and trustworthy. There is very little tracking done to ensure all members have legitimate intentions for possible connections with others.
Most free dating site are rife the pop up advertisement and emails. This can be a very annoying interruption for the time and internet access restricted individual. Being bothered by such interruptions that don’t really have any connection to the dating service is not only annoying, but is also time consuming to have to keep clicking them close. A lot of scammers feature their wares on this type of sites and sometimes this eventually affects the credibility of the sites.
Some free sites only accept members from certain parts of the world or from certain social standings. However there is very little verification exercises that are conducted to ensure those who sign up as members are actually following the requirements completely. Therefore although the site has certain rules and stipulations there is no guarantee that all the members conform to these prerequisites.
Chapter 7: Paid membership dating sites
Synopsis
It is a common preconception that when something cost money it is usually better in quality and value when compared to something that is given away for free. The same can be said for the online dating sites as a whole, although there are some free sites that are quite good, but these are few and far between.
The following are some points that will show the benefits of choosing a paid membership site for dating services:
Paid Sites
The quality of the people who would consider signing up at paid membership sites is usually comparatively higher than other style sites. People who are willing to pay for services are typically more serious about the exercise of making genuine connection with others and are also from a better demographics platform.
The element of trust is arguably higher for those who sign up at paid membership sites. The general view is that, people who pay for something are perhaps more likely to be committed, thus availing themselves to actually making connections as much as possible. These members would take the time to design proper profiles, answer questions, and fill out forms and any other exercises that would be required at such dating sites.
In almost all such paid dating sites, the support and customer services given are of a better quality. The personnel at these sites are usually very committed to providing the services touted in their advertising campaigns. This is mainly due to the fact that such sites depend on the recommendations of satisfied existing members to broaden the revenue base, by introducing the site to others.
Most paid membership dating sites will be consistent in matching the members as frequently as possible. This matching will usually be done with the utmost care, as the members depend very much on the discretion of the service provider.
Chapter 8: How to write an attractive profile
Synopsis
Being part of an online dating data base can be a very competitive platform to be part of. Therefore the individual would need to be able to present a very comprehensive and attention grabbing profile that would ensure the interest of other parties enrolled.
The following are some tips on how to prepare the ideal attention grabbing profile and will ensure huge amounts of interest:
Your Profile
Choosing a suitable user name would be the first step that is required of the new member. However some care should be taken when choosing this user name as silly and overly descriptive names are usually not encouraged or well received. Such choices would not help to convey the member’s seriousness or commitment levels, in the venture at all.
Personal information should not be easily divulged, as there should be some level of privacy to ensure the member is adequately protected from unnecessary solicitation outside the safety of the online site. Giving out too much personal information, will only create a level of vulnerability that could endanger the member.
Including photos that are complimenting yet honest is another feature that is important to be included in a profile. Sad as it may seem, people are interested in knowing of the physical appearance of those they intend to communicate with before they decide to take the connection to the next level. Therefore if the member decides not to include any photos, the chances of getting any interested a “hits” would definitely be few and far between.
“Promoting” one’s self online is also another feature that the member should be savvy in doing. This self promotion is what is going to get the individual noticed over the many others available at the site. This will also help to ensure the member stays competitive and relevant.
Chapter 9: Finding partner with the same religion
Synopsis
Of late there are quite a few online dating services that cater to niche groups. This is getting to be a rather popular requirement especially when it comes to the topic or religious platform.
Many people today find it better and certainly less cumbersome in the long run, to be matched to potential partners that share the same religion.
Therefore making the effort to sign up at dating sites which specifically cater to the religious requirements of the member would be a better choice to make.

Chapter 5: Conversations
Synopsis
First dates are usually quite stress full as both parties are intent on making a good impression on the other.
If there is the added pressure of not know what to talk about, then the date is probably headed for disaster. Therefore it is very important to be armed with some good conversational topic and ready content to get the date off on the right foot.
The following are some of the conversational starters that should be considered if the individual wants the date to have some chance of success:
Talking
Knowing about what is going on both within the community both parties live in and around the country in general. This is often a great conversation opener especially if both parties are intellectually inclined. Other topic may be centered on the political and governmental issues and how it affects the common such as the tow people on the date.
Other conversational starts may stem from the very attire being worn or the accessories. Pick something complimenting to say about the particular article can start the conversation going as more details are divulged and tips are exchanged. Also it’s a good way to gauge the taste and preferences of the other party.
Paying close attention to what the other party is saying and contributing to the overall content of the conversation will help, alert the mind to possible interesting questions to ask on the topic and also help to introduce other topics that would be connected somehow to what is being discussed. This will be a pleasant change for the other party to note that whatever he or she is saying is being noted and taken seriously.
The most important thing to remember is to try to relax and be confident and natural. All these traits are deemed admirable and thus certainly get the attention of the other party.
Chapter 6: First Impression
Synopsis
Sad but true is the thought process that first impressions usually set the tone for anything and everything. Therefore it is very important to take the trouble to make the best first impression possible to ensure the desired results of impressing the other party are achieved.
The following are just some of the recommendations that should be considered when making the first impression is on the agenda for the first date:
Great Info
The attire for the night should be at least smart casual. Dressing comfortably yet neatly and attractively is very important as what meets the eye is going to be what is judged. Being careful to not dress too sexily would also be advised as the individual would not want to give out the wrong signals or cause any unwanted advances to take place. Therefore choosing the attire that makes the individual comfortable and attractive is the best way to go.
The way the individual presents himself or herself is also important. Posture and choice of sitting positions and the general body language used are all sign that will let the other party be clued into the character and demeanor of the individual. The presence of confidence, of lack of it can be clearly deduced for the posture and the way the individual handles things. Confidence and alertness are both attributes that should ideally be displayed on the date.
Learning how to throw out a compliment or two without sounding insincere is a very important style to learn and adopt. Being able to compliment something about the other person will call attention to it in a positive say and this will ensure the other party stays flattered and happy because his or her efforts have been noted. People often respond well to compliments and this can set the positive tone for the date.
Chapter 7: After Your First Date
Synopsis
In most cases the action taken after the first date, will have some bearing on the eventual direction the relationship will take. Although it is still commonly perceived to be the man’s prerogative to make the first move after the initial date, most women today find it bothersome to wait, especially if they had a good time and so make the move instead.
Following
The hesitation, if any is mainly due to the fact that neither party wants to be rejected, thus the hesitancy to initiate contact immediately. There are also a lot of doubts for both parties if the period between the next contact is prolonged. However most experts would advice a comfortable waiting period, as this will give both parties the time to digest the events of the first date and the general characteristics of each other. Rushing into a second date will not allow either party the excitement and suspense that would ideally heighten the prospect of a second encounter. However to be noted here, is that waiting too long to make contact is also equally unnerving for both parties and this only increases further with more time lapsed.
Most females enjoy discussing the first date with their friends and try to analyze every detail of the date. Advice is given on perceptions made and then the female will decide if it would be worth the effort to agree to a second date should the opportunity present itself. For the male however, the scenario is really quite different, as most males will more likely be occupied with getting on with their lives and work thus having little time to dissect the date and analyze every detail of it, and should he decide to make the next move, making contact will then be the point of contention for him. This next contact will be the only element that occupies his thoughts and actions until contact is finally made and the next date is agreed upon.

Chapter 4: Discussing religion
Synopsis
Taking as much care as possible to avoid as many pitfalls will help the marriage get off to a good start and stay that way for much of the time. Pre marital counseling is one way to getting off to a good start because at this juncture the couple will learn about almost every different aspect of how to work at a marriage and what they can expect to encounter.
Religion
One of the more topics explored would be the one on religion. This of course for most seems to be rather a simple matter and if both parties are not really practicing any particular religion they may not see any real importance in this particular area within the marriage. However for the pre marriage counselor, this is a very important area that should be thoroughly understood for the benefit of both parties and for the eventual well being of the marriage and future children the couple would intend to have.
The aim here is to create some level of clear understanding and respect for all the various religious elements so that both parties will be better able to avoid any future conflicts that may arise successfully and without damaging the relationship in any significant way.
This is especially important for those intending to be part of, or are already in an interfaith relationship. This particular type of relationship has the potential of presenting even more problem than any other normal relationship, thus needing even more pre marital counseling care and guidance. In the initial stages both parties will not be able to understand the possible impacts of being in an interfaith relationship, but as time goes by it may become more difficult to cohabitate peacefully and happily while still wanting to practice one’s own religious beliefs, thus the need to explore and discuss matters pertaining to religion openly..
Chapter 5: Coming up with ground rules
Synopsis
As with every endeavor, marriage also require some ground rules in which both parties are expected to commit to for the betterment of the relationship.
The process of establishing such ground rules should ideally be done as a couple and if possible with the added help of an experienced pre marriage counselor.
This is very useful as it will help both parties go into the relationship with a clear understanding of what is expected of them both.
The following are some areas that should be covered by the ground rules to ensure the relationship stays the best it can be:
Rules
Laying down the perimeters of acceptable behavior and unacceptable behavior, would be a good place to start, although both parties already have some idea of each other’s personalities, the boundaries are necessary to ensure what is presently considered normal does not change in anyway and where unpleasant surprises are the call of the day.
Other ground rules should ideally cover the topic of finances. This very delicate matter is usually the main cause of problems within any existing relationship and without the ground rules in place, there would really be no guidelines to follow to ensure conflicts are kept at bay. Understanding the spending habits and commitments of both parties and learning how to reach compromises will help both parties eventually accept each other’s financial commitments and needs, thus creating a clearer picture of what to expect in the future.
Communicating is another very important ground rule to establish very early on in the relationship. Being able to communicate freely and openly should be something that insisted upon as this will give both parties a chance to be honest and forthcoming with their own thoughts and feelings within the relationship.
Chapter 6: Discussing expectations
Synopsis
Every human being has aspirations in life, and while some are quite detailed and extensive other may not really have that much to aspire about. However everyone should be given the opportunity to pursue such expectations without any outside pressure or discouragement.
What Do You Expect
For those who are lucky enough to have a clear picture of their expectations, finding someone who will fit the profile would be one way of going about choosing the ideal partner.
However for most people who tend to go with the flow, it might be harder to eventually be more firm with their expectations in the relationship.
The importance of expectations being expressed very early on in the relationship cannot be emphasized enough. This will allow both parties to be aware of the expectations, so that they can decide if they can be part of such expectations or if they would prefer to move on to another relationship more fitting to their agenda.
Expectations are often good guiding tools to have as long as they don’t become a dominating and uncompromising factor in an individual’s life. With expectations in place the individual is better able to adjust and also get the other party to understand the stand taken on certain elements.
A pre marriage counselor will be able to guide both parties on the way to decide and document these expectations in a more logical and realistic way, thus giving both parties an insight of what to expect within the relationship and its future direction.
Discussing these expectations will also allow both parties to be in sync once it is agreed that the expectations are acceptable. There will be less conflict and more working in tandem to ensure the expectations of both parties are adequately met within the confines of the relationship.

Chapter 6: Stick to the dating rules and strict moral standards
Synopsis
In order to play the dating game well, the individual should be really aware of the underlying but very7 important rules that generally govern the entire exercise at every juncture. These rules if acknowledged and followed to a certain level will allow the individual to avoid any unwanted problems that may arise from the dating experience.
The following are some dos and don’ts that would require some consideration if the individual intends to have pleasurable experiences when indulging in the dating game:
Stick To It
Taking the trouble to groom one’s self so that a presentable individual can be made ready for the date would be the first consideration to ensure. This is to ensure the visual package is appealing to the other party and would also show the individual’s commitment to making a effort for the date.
Being punctual is another very important consideration to ensure is actively and seriously exercised. Failing to be punctual can speak volumes about the individual’s character and commitment level to the date and the potential relationship that would be anticipated.
Being attentive and focused on the other party on the date is also something that should be ensured. There is nothing more insulting and demeaning than ignoring the other party and using the time to let the eyes and mind wonder.
Making a conscious decision not to have sex on the first date is also extremely important. Although the attraction may be evident, waiting would be well advised. Getting to know the other party before taking the encounter to the next level would give them both a chance to actually find out other enjoyable things, which could potentially contribute to keeping the relationship alive after sex has been enjoyed. This information gained would eventually help the relationship grow into something more rewarding and exciting.
Chapter 7: Go on a date only in well-lit public places
Synopsis
There are quite a few precautions that one should initiate when going on dates. These are often necessary to ensure the safety of the individual is kept as a priority and to avoid any unwanted and potentially dangerous occurrences.
When the venue of the date is being arranged, the most important element to consider is if the place and time decided upon is suitable and safe. The ideal scenario would be metting for coffee during the day especially on a weekend when most people are out and about.
This would ideally present the busy conditions that would ideally secure the venue as being safer. The daytime date however should not viewed as totally safe, and some level of caution should still be consistently practiced.
The Areas
If the date has been arranged to take place during the late evening or night, then the lighting of the venue should be seriously considered. Being able to view the surrounding area and the other party clearly is very important and dominant in the safely issue angle. Besides being able to see everything clearly, there is also the idea that other can see the individual and the date too.
This sense of public exposure will help limit the chances of any unpleasant scenarios from unfolding. Well lit areas are also good as they provide a sense of security for the individual on the date. When all things are clearly visible, the individual will be able to be more relaxed and concentrate on having a good time rather than to be stressed out on safety issues the entire date.
Well lit areas also present a better amount of activity and this is also another beneficial and often sought after scenario. Besides the obvious safety comforts it presents, the individuals are also able to be identifiable by other should this become a necessary element for the future.
Chapter 8: Do not accept a ride home on the first date
Synopsis
There are a lot of different issues to he considered when the individual is busy contemplating the dating game. Some are more complex than others and require a little more thought and consideration. One of the issues that should be seriously considered is the mode of transportation being considered for the date.
Rides
Getting there and getting back should be arranged well before the date. This is something that should be considered and definitely not left to chance as there are many connecting factors that could cause this particular part of the date, to be a stressful point. Most people going on dates, especially if it is still in the first few encounters, would be strongly advised not to accept a lift from the other party. For safely and convenience reasons, the individual should make his or her own arrangements to get back and forth from the date venue. This would be a more reliable option and certainly one that would be better in terms of security.
The issue of safety is normally foremost in the mind of the individual going on the date and taking all precautions necessary would effectively limit the possibility of things going wrong. Generally no one wants to have to worry about other distracting issues when on the actual date. It is quite a common practice for one party, popularly the male counterpart to offer to take the female home after the date. Though it may seem to be a nice gesture on the part of the male, there could be some underlying misconceptions at play, which may end up being unpleasant, uncomfortable and even dangerous for the party who is not interested or does not want to play along. This is especially so if one party or both parties has a little too much to drink and are not quite sober enough to think straight.

Another way to generate leads virally is by using a Tell-A-Friend script.
I think you have to be careful not to let others abuse your Tell-A-Friend script because they can go spamming the Internet with it, but I think the best practice for using a Tell-A-Friend script is to have one on your download page for your freebie that you just giveaway.
It will say, “I’ll give you this extra bonus if you tell 5 friends about this,” or “10 friends about this.”
So, there will be a little form that they fill out and they’ll type in five different email addresses, for example, of their friends and when they hit submit it will send out a message to all their friends from them, which tells them to go and check out your squeeze page basically.
It’s really good traffic because they’re endorsing you, in a way.
They are friends of friends recommending you to other friends to your site, which is better than running an ad on some site where no one knows you, no authority is being transferred to you, or not trust is being transferred to you.
So you may be able to get really good leads by doing so.
Mike Filsaime, has a Tell-A-Friend script and there are other ones out there on the market that you can search for in Google by searching for Tell-A-Friend script.
I have a feeling those will also be on the rise in the future.
Those are one of those tactics that were used a lot years ago and you don’t see them as much anymore, but I think that they will emerge again, especially when people start using them in a way that makes the person who’s sending out the Tell-A-Friend script use their own email server to mail out the Tell-A-Friend invitation, that way they can avoid spam troubles altogether.
But the worse way to use a Tell-A-Friend script is if you’re telling people to send out one of their affiliate links and they’re an affiliate for you because then they may spam your site a lot because they’re trying to make money.
They may get excited, they might be spammers, or they might just get a little too excited and start sending it out to everybody and everyone they can find, thinking they’re going to make a million dollars overnight.
Integrated Cross-Promotions
The next way I want to talk about generating leads is using integrated cross-promotions.
I think Mark Joyner coined the term integrated marketing.
Well integrated cross-promotions are different kinds of cross promos that you have with your joint venture partners other than ad swaps, click banking, or anything like JV giveaways.
These are different because these are integrated into your marketing on autopilot, so you
to think about the different parts of your marketing systems that you can integrate some kind of joint venture link to.
For example, on your download page, you might have a banner that leads to one of your JV partner's squeeze pages and they have the same for you on their download page.
That would be an example of an integrated cross- promotion.
So instead of monetizing that part of your download page with an offer, what you'll do is do an integrated cross-promotion with one of your joint venture partners.
Another way is to cross promote your joint venture partner in your follow up series.
So in your email follow up series, maybe your fifth email in the follow up series will promote their squeeze page and their fifth email in their follow up series will promote your squeeze page.
Another way is through P.S.'s of your emails that you send out.
So when you're sending out an email to your list, you can make a deal with one of your joint venture partners to always promote their squeeze page in their P.S. and they have to do the same for you.
That's one way to do it.
Think about the power of integrated cross-promotion.
You're generating subscribers on autopilot by doing this.
You can add tons per day to your list or more, all on autopilot, by doing this a set of joint venture partners or with just one, but just think about this; let's say you have 10 joint venture partners and you're going to do integrated joint venture cross-promotions with your follow up series of emails.
Say all 10 of you in all 10 of your first follow up series emails, you all promote each other, well visitors would be flying all over the place and going onto your list if you do that.
Ezine Advertising
One of the easiest methods of building your own list of subscribers is by purchasing advertising in established ezines relating to your niche market.
You could consider purchasing a solo ad, or at a lower cost, purchase an ad spot within an existing newsletter.
You need to track how well your ezine advertisements are performing, so that you can ensure that it's worth the money you are paying to feature your advertisement.
If you find that your ezine promotions are generating enough traffic to justify further advertising, consider purchasing a top sponsor ad within select ezines and newsletters for maximum exposure.
Your advertisement should feature your squeeze page, and provide information about what you are offering.
Viral PDF Reports
The next tactic I want to talk about is using viral PDF reports.
So let's say you write a little report that can be 2 to 5 pages long, as long as it's rock solid content; it's going to be for a free report anyway, and you create a PDF report out of it. Well, inside the PDF report, you want to say that this is free to distribute.
Also inside of your PDF report, you want to have a link at the end that leads to your squeeze page or an entire ad that leads to your squeeze page.
What I've found in the past is that other people started using my reports to build their lists with.
So they would actually give my I reports away to their squeeze pages and I would generate those subscribers under my list, the ones who actually read the report and then clicked thru at the end.
The ones who read the reports and clicked through to the end and discovered you that way, end up being some of the highest quality leads you'll get because they've just read one of your reports, and they clicked through at the end to get your freebie, and you've got them on your list.

Giving is receiving.
Providing Freebies - A Useful Tool in Leveraging Businesses Today
Providing freebies is considered to be one of the marketing strategies, especially nowadays when companies of all sizes are trying out this tactic in order to bring an increased number of customers to their websites. If the freebies offered by a company are really valuable, they can bring in a wonderful stream of targeted traffic, which have a great chance of getting converted into being customers.
There are a few web hosting companies that provide up to 5 GB web space as free. You might think what do they get by providing such things for free? But there's a catch. When they provide you with the free web space, they have some restrictions in the hosting features and if you want those features unlocked, you need to upgrade your account. For instance, there won't be database facilities. So if you have a dynamic website, you will need a database and for that you will need to upgrade your hosting.
There are many multinational companies providing free health products to be tried out. If you like the product, you are invited to purchase them. There are many companies providing you free fat loss tablets to try out. You just need to bear the shipping costs in most cases.

For example, AVG antivirus has a free version but if you want to use that in multiple computers and will need to use it commercially. In that case, you will need to buy their advanced version.
Many companies provide free newsletters for their customers to know about their needs. For example, there can be a big website providing newsletters for moms on how to raise their children. In turn, this company will charge other companies to promote their products to this section of readers.

Let us now talk about some of the best methods that you can use in promoting your business. These methods are all high in demand currently and you can use them in various business niches, from product to digital products, eBooks or something like that.
Here are the methods:-
Provide One Time Offer - This means, whenever a visitor comes to your website, he or she should get one time offer which he gets this time only. For example, if a person is buying an eBook of a value of $17, you can show them a video that they can buy as well for a 20% discount if they buy it right away. Tell them that the discount won't stay when they return.
Provide free eBooks, tips, ideas and resources to your customers. These things help you to get a loyal customer base and you can even promote your products in your newsletters with tips or whatever information you are sending.
You can use cross selling methods. These methods involve selling other related product to your customer at the time of checking out. For example, if someone is purchasing a motherboard, they can be offered a compatible RAM with that or they can also be offered an additional fan along with the motherboard that they purchase.
Provide an exit offer. Let's say you have visitor to your website. They go through your website and like the product and decide to purchase it. What you can do is, when they try to close the website, they will get an unblockable popup informing them about some special promotion, like if they buy some product right away, they will get a 20% discount instantly. However, this is a onetime offer and won't remain when they return. This gives at least 10 to 20% higher conversion rate.

Chapter 7: Build A Portfolio
Synopsis
As you break the excess spending habit, and fall under the savings habit, you're ready to take on the next step: building investments, retirement savings and real property equity. Sound unachievable?
Investments
Some steps to think about:
Meet with a financial consultant or certified financial planner to view this all important part of your budgeting.
Acquire a solid plan and stick with it. All too frequently we've become complacent when the market is doing well and cowardly when the market isn't doing so well. What sets the successful individuals apart is containing those emotions.
How come it matters: development—personally as well as financially. You've got to go from a spendthrift to budgeter, a budgeter to a saver, and a saver to an investor.
Ascertain what items or issues you're saving for. These may be retirement, a new house, your youngster's education or anything else you choose.
Ascertain when you want to retire, buy a house or send your youngsters to college, to help you decide what percentage return you need to earn on your initial investment.
Determine how much money to invest. Invest what you are able to comfortably afford now, keeping in mind that you are able to change that amount later.
Ascertain how much risk you're willing to take. Many investments bring forth high returns and are riskier than others.
When you decide the amount you're willing to invest, the returns you want to accomplish, when you need the money and how much risk you're willing to bear, assemble your investment portfolio.
An investment counselor or stockbroker is a great source of advice. Tell these advisers your objectives and ask them to propose how to allocate your income.
Reassess your portfolio at least yearly. Study each investment.

Synopsis
There are lots of ways to save at home.
Change Some Things
Save income on electrical energy.
Put in the new type of fluorescent bulbs in lights you leave on for long periods. They provide 4 times as much light and last 10 times longer than incandescent bulbs. Likely Savings: $10-$50/yr.
Lower the temperature on your water heater to between 110 and 120 degrees. It's not essential to have it any hotter and wastes energy. Likely Savings: $20-40/yr.

Just insulating your water heater may save you $25 a year. Likely Savings: $50/yr.
Set thermostats no greater than 68 degrees in winter and no lower than 78 degrees in summertime. Turn your heat down even more at night or when you're not home (unless you've a heat pump, which operates more efficiently at one uniform setting). Each extra degree in wintertime may increase heating costs by 3%. In summertime, each degree may raise cooling costs by 6%. Likely Savings: $325 to $500/yr.
Cut down on the use of your dryer. Not only is it a huge energy drain, it may also suck heated air out of your home very quickly in wintertime. Hang clothes on a clothes rack to dry out and use the dryer for towels and other heavy items. Likely Savings: $25-50/yr.

The content on your blog is important - and even more important than your blog’s design.
Sure, the fact that it looks pretty may invite them to sit down and read a while, but what people really come to your blog for is to read it. Without decent content, people don’t have a reason to stick around, or to come back again.
You have to build content on a site you’re flipping, as if it were a site you’re keeping, or else there will be little interest in it from a buyer’s point of view. Luckily, you have a few options for how to get the content.
Autoblog Content
Autoblog content is the easiest way to add content to your blog.
There are several autoblog plugins available for WordPress. Basically, once you install the plugin on the blog, it finds relevant content across the web, and then posts it to your blog automatically.
Some buyers may like this because it means after they buy the blog, they don’t have to worry about new content creation. They can leave it running on autopilot if they want to. Most people who want to make money online want to do it with minimal effort, so if you can make it do all the work itself, then you’re likely to attract more buyers.
The caveat here is that your content will not be unique. It will be on many blogs out there, so there will be no added value from the content. The content posted on the blog may not top quality, or even directly relevant, which can cause traffic to suffer.
While autoblogs have their place because they can be flipped quickly, it’s something I recommend leaving alone, unless you are desperate to make a quick profit. Keep in mind; the profit you do make will be low.
What about PLR?
This content is not unique until you rework it, or outsource it to a writer to rework for you.
PLR, or private label rights content, starts out as original writing, and then gets distributed to people who use the content however they want.
PLR allows you to get ideas for what to write, using what is there for the basis for the content. Once you re-write it, you get the same basic idea, but you’ve created unique content for your blog.
If you use PLR content, don’t just slap it on your blog without making any changes. It’s not a good idea in terms of SEO, which will detract potential buyers.
The best option - Unique content
Unique content is the most valuable time of content. You can use PLR as your starting point, re-writing everything, or you can write something fresh from scratch.
You can either write the content yourself, or you can pay someone else to handle it for you.
If you’re trying to get a start while keeping your costs down, you should write your own content. Though it will take time and effort, you can do it for the first few blogs you build. Once you start making some money, you can start outsourcing that part of the process, so you can build more properties, faster.
Even though outsourcing your content will cost you money, the ability to create more properties will allow you to earn more money overall, quicker than you would if you were doing everything yourself.
If you do plan to outsource your content, make sure you hire someone who is experienced and knows what they are doing. Hiring a quality writer is important, because if you don’t, you could face getting poorly written content that you have to re-write anyway.
Before you hire a freelance writer, take time to look at previous samples of their work, and references from current and former clients. This will help you determine the quality of content you can expect.
Always ask the freelancer about their knowledge and expertise with the subject you want them to write about.
If I’m creating a blog about cooking, ideally the writer I am going to hire has experience in writing about it, and a working knowledge of it... or at the very least, passion about it.
However, any subject can be researched. The best writers will be able to confidently write about something they have no knowledge of, but it is still something to consider as you make your choice.
Also consider what you’re paying. If the quote sounds too good to be true, it probably is. If you expect someone to produce content at $.50 per 100 words, the resulting quality will be incredibly poor.
You are better off paying more to writers to ensure you get good quality content, so you have to do little to no re-working when you get it back.
Those are your options for content, but what you choose depends on many factors, such as the type of blog you want to create.
If you want to flip your blog for profit within a short amount of time, then you may want to consider creating an autoblog, or one that uses PLR with little re-working.
If you’re looking for the most profit, you’ll want to produce 100% unique and original content.
Getting visitors to your blog
Yes, you can flip a brand new blog, but you won’t be able to do it for a lot of profit compared to one that is established with traffic.
I’ve already said the most valuable blogs are the ones that are getting traffic and making money. I’ve covered how to build money-making opportunities into your blog, so now, we’ll cover how to build traffic.
Ranking in the search engines
Sites such as Google are looking for sites that give users fresh, useful content. It is their job to connect users with the content they are looking for, therefore they give priority to sites and blogs which provide users with useful, relevant information and which are constantly updated. Google doesn’t really want to point users to a blog where there hasn't been a new post in 12 months.
