Making Money Online with Free Games and videos Downloads

Making money online requires either selling items (products, services, e-books etc.) or generating leads, downloading certain services/products etc.
Selling items like electronics products, jewelry items, books or mags, motor spare parts etc. requires you to become an affiliate by registering with an affiliate network. You will earn commissions when you sell an item i.e. when a transaction takes place.

Similarly selling services that also involves transaction like software development services, web hosting services, SEO or any other industry can make you cash.

Generating leads, also referred as CPA (Cost per Acquisition) involves users to input and submit certain required information. This may be a single zip code or email or 10-100 fields form. Some finance merchant require upto 100 fields form information. And as the number of fields forms increases the payouts usually raises per lead. It does not require users to make a transaction but simply to fill-out a form. A social web site registration form, an Insurance company's form, a secured loan or personal loan application form, American president voting (that requires email) etc. can be working examples of it.
Although there are many legitimate ways of making money online, The time has proved Lead based programs work better than sales based models, where customers don't have to pay.

There is another model of making money online that does not require a transaction nor filling out a form. This is pay-per-install program.

Zango and vomba cash are two among other providing this service. They offer you to present your surfers with Free Online Games, Screen Savers, Wall Papers, Free Video online to download to their computer. For every install they pay you.
Zango pays you more i.e. $0.75 per install for US based installations while $0.40 for few other countries.

These programs are good for game lovers, video, screen saver and wallpapers content providers to monetize their web sites. Who want/can write about online games. The content provided by Zango and vomba cash may supplement your own with SEO capability. However there are other ways to make money with these programs. These techniques are discussed in a forum mentioned below.

How to Earn Money as Forex Affiliate

Forex, The mainstream business, the biggest market on earth today. It has a daily turnover of more than 2.5 trillion US$ (more than 100 times greater than NASDAQ), and it's still growing.
Traders who play/trade online has to get membership with a trading platform online, e.g. easy-forex , forex-yard etc. Traders has to invest big amount of monies in order to get some reasonable profit to get livelihood based on Forex. Its a risky thing unless you are pretty experienced with buy/selling tricks.

As it involves huge transactions and profits to trading platform, they offer lucrative affiliate offer as well. So if you are an affiliate you are always looking for recurring income. no-body, in general wants to be in competition all the time and you can't put hard efforts all the time. So recurring income are the best options.

As a Forex affiliate, you refer surfers (intended traders) to trading platform you are affiliated with. If they sign-up you may choose to get one time or recurring income. See details of the trading platform you decided to go with.

However is it good for every affiliate? My answer would be No. Unless you are naturally interested in gaining knowledge, you can write about forex, tips, tricks for successfully trading. You may write a blog or put info in your web site along with your affiliate links, then it may work. Also the Adwords or PPC is pretty expensive for Forex related keywords.

You may join easy-forex affiliate program and forex-yard free of cost.

Videos Recording Of Surfers - A Web Analytics Click-Tale Service

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is very very important for a web site. But having visitors from organic or paid searches and high bounced rate which means surfers are finding your site but are not keen to read or getting interest what you offered or presented them.

The information can be very useful and so the overall content is but why bounce rate is too high or visitor time on site is too low or conversions are not good. That is where comes web site Analytics.

Google Analytics has been a blessing with comprehensive stats. Users time on page, entry point, exit point, Accessing keywords, bounce rate, Location- country, region etc, browser type, screen resolution, heat maps etc. Apart from Google Analytics, many other companies offer this kind of services.

With the above mentioned comprehensive data, a question always pinched me and always made me curious--- What a visitor has done or gone through my web pages especially, one of my finance site. If the length of time is say 5 min then why he/she is not converted! How can I make sure he had not gone for washroom break while page was opened or surfing other web pages. Simply I always wanted to watch the videos to watch this behavior.

Teens looking for cash, How internet makes money for teens, moms

The other day while i was researching on "No Sales System" idea, where affiliates/webmaster can make money without selling products or services. One of it main focus was "Pay per Install" programs. To understand it better i decided to discuss with folks already into this idea and so joined a pay-per-install forum. On one of threads guys shared their IM ids to discuss things in person. Randomly i picked few and added to my msn messenger. While started conversation and after sharing few ideas of my own a person turned out to be a teen looking for earning cash online. He told his father passed away and his mother is house wife. So at the age of sixteen he is looking ways to make money online to buy a laptop as well as paying the tuition fees as his mother couldn't afford his eduction.

He had no investment to make so had to find out some ways to monetize free stuffs. Somehow he got to know about the pay per install system that allowed him to make few hundred dollars per month.

He found out ways how to bundle a softwares, screen savers, wallpapers, or other software utilities. Where he was being paid per install whenever someone downloads and installs his bundled software by downloading from torrent sites.

Well, thats what internet is... that enables people of any age, any race where even teenagers who have to go out and exploit themselves except from the lucky ones to give opportunities to play in the fair-grounds.

Affiliates First Flight

Well, its not the short story of a Sea-Gull. Its going to be two-three months that things has been setup. The site with affiliate links for selling items, the landing page to receive leads, content is up with ad setup, trying direct-landing ppc campaigns, the importance of Search Engine Optimization is realized and somehow executed--- all done after lots of reading, research, expectations are built up based on like paying utility bills, or a car or mortgage installment or kicking the boss---The result is Zero.
Nothing sold, no lead generated, surfers visited but only $0.005 earning for clicking Ads. What the feeling...I have done so much.

And thats the phase where they say 90% of the dudes leave grounds. I am not made for it. The top paying Ads were bluff. I better stuck with 9-5 job or something similar as part time to raise the income.

I wish everybody is lucky enough to make the first flight on first attempt. Thats the rare case unfortunately. The mind-set is really important at the start up. You may be trying hundred attempts and one or two will be turn out to be successful. Is it not the "marketing Principal"? so is the Affiliate marketing!

Least your expectations, as you are here to conquer not to be...! The best thing is to address yourself and always keep notes what you learnt from the failure attempts. You will realize it was not failure but learning cost, once you will be on track. The key is to stay and stay long, consistently and work hard. Always keep your goals that motivated you to come into this affiliate marketing. Once succeeded, " I want to be at home with family" "I want to be boss of my own" "i want to raise my income" "i want to bring some big change" "I can accomplish my tourism as i can manage my online business anywhere, with least effort".
All these goals are archived and many are trying to achieve 'em. and believe me if you get chance to ask or read a super affiliate success stories, these are the same.
They gone through the same situations in start up but they remain solid. Those are not beings form the sky they are just like us. They failed, failed and failed. and only those win who don't take 'em failures but the rule of the game.

Click Arbitrage - Good or Bad

What is Click Arbitrage?
As such this blog is for beginners as well, so first good to define what is concept!
The word Arbitrage may be defined as
"The simultaneous purchase and sale of similar commodities in different markets to take advantage of a price discrepancy."
So like traditional business, Purchasing clicks at lower price and selling them at higher price. The difference is the Profit.
This idea is in for few years and lot as been done in favor and against it. As its been a good attraction for affiliate/web masters. It harmed few big search engines as well. The topic has been hot and even few e-books been written and sold about it.

Have i seen during my surfing?
Most probably--YES. you might seen web sites full of links, search results and somewhere may be top or bottom of page mentioned as "Sponsored link'. These pages might be accessible by clicking on an attractive Ad, under an Ad block of a site that you were going through. Or a domain name was typed, it was mis-spelled or the domain has been expired---and you are taken to that web site full of sponsored links page.
Similarly you are taken to a web site with information stuff, you are looking for and it contains "Ad Blocks" may be from google adsense or other ppc providers. The Ads packs the content in a way that most chances are visitor will click one of it. And stats are if CTR is 10% (depending on content) it might be making profit.

So is Click Arbitrage bad?
Why? Even few big search engines are playing it. e.g. ask.com. I saw an Ad on google when i searched for 'Secured Loans". One of the ad on right bar was written something like it
"Search Secured loans on Ask" and clicking on it will lead to search result page on ask.com with organic results as well as sponsored links.
a sample is shown below in video....




Individuals and even companies involved in Click Arbitrage business using cheap Google listings and lead to costly yahoo link farm page.
Few PPC Ad affiliate companies like "SearchAnyway" offers full search engine pages that individuals or companies can incorporate with thier domains. It contains a Search box, like any search engine.
Visitors can search and the search results will only display sponsored link. CTR is considered high for these kind of pages.
Although searchanyway, a ppc affiliate program, is not based on click arbitrage affiliate program, but they allow it with quality traffic.
As such Google does not denies it clearly under the Term and Conditions of Adsense for Publishers. Instead they allow it but never directly.
