Hubpages are really great

I have been doing a lot of experimenting with hubpages and I can say they are really great.

Find a longtail low competition keyword, and create an article about it on hubapges. It will rank extremely well, extremely fast.

Spread or Climb - Decide your strategy

Past few months I have been experimenting with two possible internet marketing strategies. One is to go wide and one is to go high. Here are my thoughts.

Going wide:
+ lot of independent sources of revenue
+ possible automation of tasks
- low income

Going high:
+ dedicated project
+ quality of content
+ quality of backlinks
+ high income
- if you missed the niche you are going to regret it
- risk

More tricks fo the trade: Adsense, YPN, buying websites

Yesterday I had a first $10 adsense day. Not bad, took me few months though. Of course I already had $100 days with affiliate sales but this is first time with adsense.

One of my sites really took off with Adsense earnings. Thing I noticed: The amount of visits have not changed, the price for the ads did. I am using adlink and in the beginning it was miserable. 1 or 2 cents a click. But then google figured out what people like to click and what pays well. And they started rotating better links. Now click is 11 cents. that's ten times more. Therefore my $10.

I've heard that Yahoo's YPN pays even more then Adsense. I do not know whether this was true, and YPN is still in beta and for US citizens only. The rumor made sense since the minimum bid on Yahoo network was 10 cents in contrast to Google's 1 cent. But recently Yahoo switched to 1 cent model too. Worth a try if you are from US.

I bought another website! Yee. It's called ZoomWallpapers.com. I always wanted to have a wallpapers site. You can find some pretty cool backgrounds there like Star Wars wallpapers, interesting space backgrounds, perhaps pick a transformers wallpaper, find a background for your website or maybe interested in Vanessa Hudgens pictures? It's all there in one place, that's the beauty of wallpaper sites. The previous owner was earning about $3-$5 per day. Since I took it over it fell down to only $0.10 per day. Why?

I got rid of ads that were literally all around the place. I moved them away because I want the site first to be a usable resource. And this will take some time.

You need to have faith in what you do. Netvestor over and out.

Tricks of the trade

It's been a while since the last update as I was busy, a lot :)

I am slowly catching up with this game called website investing and it's major fun.

My first two sites Wii Finder and Wii in Stock, after a huge success in December, are getting back to former performance. My new sites Fly The Copter Game and ScriptCopy are slowly gaining both in visitors and revenue.

So I am there at about $10 per day. That only 300 times less then my goal $3000 per day, lol.

This proves only one thing. Knowledge is essential, but patience even more so.

Netvestor on a break

Most of you have probably noticed that I do not post as much as I used to.

Reason for this is the overwhelming amount of work. You know that I quit my job in December and decided to create streams of passive income from online ventures alone. I have a lot of energy but it gets spread out on not less then 13 websites I am maintaining right now, 3 of them being major projects.

The Internet Market is one of the most quickly developing markets in the world today. To stay competitive, an enormous amount of information has to be followed every day. This is taking it's toll on me and I need a little break away from the madness. The articles presented on this blog are a very sold base for anyone to start investing in websites. Having lot less knowledge then I have now I managed to earn $1500 in December out of two months old website. So everyone can do it it's dedication that matters.

To the readers who have been following the latest series of articles, the newest free development/promotion website that is showing better results then anything I have seen before is scribd.com. Out of other sites, Jimdo came out of nowhere these days and is ranking very well. Surely to keep an eye on.

Online dev platforms experiment continued...

In my first post I outlined six online development platforms and decided to make a test by creating the same page on all of them and see which ranks better.

After ten days have passed, I have some preliminary results. Best to rank for hidden word 'lovtexmes' was weebly site and then the standalone site cutecoco.com.

Best to rank for the whole keyword was cutecoco.com with around position 550 on google (yes terrible).

But there seems to be another contender in this game and the things get really exciting.
