advertising in facebook

How to advertise effectively on Facebook!!

Everybody knows Facebook is social networking sites just like myspace and orkut, with more than 100 million users. According to latest data publish in the newspaper, it is said that nearly 600,000 people join facebook daily. That means if you advertise on facebook, you are actually targeting more than 100 million facebook member on the Internet. I don’t think even if you advertise on google you could get that much figure.

Why Facebook Ads?

Facebook ads is the single best way to start a conversation between you and your ideal customers. The ad is 100% branded by the advertisers and does not include any social actions.

Integrate Content

Get noticed not skipped. Ads are shown in the left hand Ad Space — visible to members as they surf Facebook to connect with their friends.

Flexible pricing

Purchase clicks (CPC) or impressions (CPM), whichever works best for you.

5 Easy steps to Advertise

Step 1: Where do you want to advertise?

Decide whether you want members to be directed to your own web page or something on Facebook like a Page, Application, Group or Event. If you are already the administrator of your Facebook Page, Group, Event or Application, you can select it from the drop down option.

Step 2: Reach audience who cares

Target your exact audience with demographic and psycho-graphic filters about real people. The targeting page defaults to members age 18 and older in the United States, but you are encouraged to modify this to reach the most appropriate people for your ad. Be sure to reference the top of the page for an estimate of the no of audience who match your criteria.

Target Your Audience By:

How to advertise on Facebook

* Region
* Sex
* Age
* Keywords
* Education
* Workplace
* Relationship Status
* Relationship Interests

Step 3: How to attract your audience?

Upload creative photo or image, including a title for your ad (up to 25 characters in length including spaces) and content for the body of your ad (up to 135 characters in length including spaces) in the space provided. As you are creating your ad, a preview of it will be displayed to you.

In this step, you may also choose to attach social actions to your ad. If you tick the box, which add content that notifies a member of their friends’ interactions with your brand or your business on Facebook.

Step 4: Set Budget

Decide whether you want to pay for CPC or pay for impressions and choose the appropriate payment tab.

you will also like to confirm the maximum you are willing to pay per click / per 1000 impressions depending on your payment method. The suggested bid range shows you what other advertisers are currently bidding to reach people in your target. For better results, you should bid at least as much as the minimum suggested bid.

Now organize your ad. Do you want it to run continuously starting once the ad is confirm or at a specified start and end date?

Step5: Review your ad

The final step of the ad creation process is to review your ad. Check the targeting, budget and ad itself for errors. You can go back to change any of the details by clicking ‘Change Ad’. Once you have reviewed your ad, enter your credit card info and click ‘Place Order’. All ads go through a quality review prior to being shown.

Hubpages

Recently i came across Hubpages while making my research on different ways of making money online. I read so much about Hubpages and heard lot about it as one of the best ways of earing money online. The site is easy to navigate, has clear instuctions, easy to sign up. It’s easy to get around the site and it loads fast. Hubpages is somewhat just like Ciao, Associate Content ‘You get paid to write’ it may not be as popular as these but it is lot better than ciao and AC. The reason is because it the better pay than both..

What is HubPages?

HubPages
is the leading online publishing ecosystem. HubPages has easy-to-use publishing tools, a vibrant author community and underlying revenue-maximizing infrastructure. Hubbers (HubPages authors) earn money by publishing their Hubs (content-rich Internet pages) on topics they know and love, and earn recognition among fellow Hubbers through the community-wide HubScore ranking system.
The HubPages ecosystem provides a search-friendly infrastructure which drives traffic to Hubs from search engines such as Google and Yahoo.

How?
As mention above HubPages has revenue share business model, where the writer gets 60% share in ad revenue to your pages if embedded with your adsense code and Kontera. Ofcourse this is better than other site who only share the profits and not the revenue and others who pay 50/50 in revenue sharing.
Did i tell you also have affilate Revenue sharing for Ebay and Amazon or you can make money promoting your own affiliate links on your pages.

Hubpages is a great resource and you could make money with it if you are serious and responsible and willing to work hard creating your own unique and useful content for your readers.
This application is highly recommended for those who have a flair for writing. Since the site is search engine friendly, one can gain popularity and also you might get paid for the effort. Instead of a blog, hubs can be a better alternative as a source of revenue.

HubPages
Features

* Hubs can be created easily with tools provided by hubpages.com.
* Revenue sharing model where sixty percent of earnings are given to Hubbers.
* Easy to use tools to setup affiliates on the hub.
* Tags can be created automatically after a predetermined number of hubs are published by an individual Hubber.
* Groups provide an excellent way to identify hubs and its relevance.
* No gambling or adult content is allowed.

If you have articles that has not been published and has been rejected by other sites, why not give Hubpages a try. You might be in for a surprise!!

HubPages New User Signup


There are several ways to make some money from your blog like you will find on the page, one such way of making money is through writing REVIEWS? If you didn’t knew that you can making money writing reviews on your blog to generate a stream of income from it then you might want to check this site out.

There are several sites which pays you to write reviews on your blog but only two of them are worth talking about in my opinion. They are Sponsored Reviews and Smorty.sponsored reviews logo

Sponsored Reviews is great because they allow you to search for advertisers directly and bid on jobs. Their bidding system allows you to negotiate rates with advertisers in order to maximize your earnings. They also provide the largest payout of all review networks by only taking a 35% commission for their services. That means you can earn anything from $10 to 600+ for each review. Their user interface is one of the best in its category.

And then there is their affiliate program. Where you can earn up to $175 per Advertiser and $90 Per Blogger referred. Payouts are based on money spent by the advertiser and money earned by the blogger. See the chart below for payouts. Their average advertiser spends several hundred dollars so most referrals will be worth at least $25 (according to their website).

sponsored reviews payout chart

You’ll then want to put one of their ads on your site or a text link to start taking advantage of their referral bonuses. Can’t hurt to get an ad on your blog right? Get started with Sponsored Reviews now.

How does writing reviews make me money?

Making money through Sponsoredreviews is much easier than you think.

The first step is to sign up with a blog review network and submit your blog. Some of these companies have rules in place like the age of your blog (at least 6 months old, etc), where it’s hosted (blogspot, wordpress, etc), and page rank. They try to weed out spam blog sites which are usually not very old or of good quality. Make sure you read the fine print before you spend your time applying only to find out you don’t qualify.

Requirements:

  • Your blog must contain at least 10 posts with 200 words of unique content each.
  • Your blog must not be completely automated or appear to be created solely for search engine traffic.
  • Your blog must have at least a 3:1 ratio of non-paid to paid content.
  • You must complete all accepted reviews within 7 days, or your account will be suspended.
  • Foreign Language blogs (non-english) must clearly state in the title which language the blog is written in. i.e. “Jean’s Blog – Spanish”. You must also state (in the description) whether you will write the review in English or another language.
  • Blogs with very little traffic and/or links, may be rejected .

They are looking for real blogs, not made for Adsense sites. Blogs that have subscribers
Blogs are not automatically approved, there is a manual check done on each site, and that might take a day or so.

Assuming your blog is approved, you can now browse the review marketplace looking for reviews to write about or another option is to wait for someone to approach you. I recommend you be the aggressor and sift through the marketplace so you can start making money asap.

Once you find a review you’d like to write about and meet the criteria to qualify, just take it and begin. You’ll create your blog post and follow the requirements of the reviewer, then submit it for approval. After it’s approved, you get paid.

Summary
If I were you, I’d sign up for both Sponsored Reviews and Smorty and see which one works best for you. There is no rule preventing you from having two accounts and writing reviews from both sites and you can promote whichever you choose. That’s what I did and it also gives you a bigger selection of available reviews to write. After you sign up, make sure you get some affiliate banners on your blog so you have another avenue to make money. Just imagine if you write a dozen or so reviews a month and get a couple referrals. You could easily earn a few hundred extra bucks a month!!!

Affiliate Program

  • Income from Advertisers
  • Income from New Publishers
  • Recurring Income

With potentially more of my audience having already heard of Smorty and signed up, Sponsored Reviews seems to have the same quality program to promote for site reviews currently.

ZENZUU… the Next Generation of online Social Networking! An excellent oppurtunity to make money from a social networking site.
You may have heard the latest buzz about the newest social networking site called ‘ZENZUU‘. I read this in one of the blog, that name ‘ZENZUU‘ means ‘Tranquility in the Chaos’, but I do know that it also means an opprotunity to earn a some extra money for just being sociable and having all you friends and family keep in touch via the ZENZUU site.

ZENZUU was officially launched in August 2008. Unlike Myspace, Facebook, Friendster, Hi5 or any other social networking sites which don’t pay you anything to join, ZENZUU shares its 80% Worldwide Advertising Revenue in an MLM type of structure with its active members.

And of course, the more people in your social network, the more you’ll earn. So it makes sense to get in now and build as big a social network as possible so you and all your friends earn as much as possible from the business people paying for all the advertising.

If you haven’t heard about ZENZUU yet, it’s most likely because it’s a new concept that has only launched recently and is still in the process of building it’s network and establishing it’s advertising clients (who’ll be paying you). So get in now, tell all your friends and family (especially the ones overseas that you keep in touch with anyway) to tell their friends and family.

Let me tell you that you can potentially earn (tens of) thousands of dollars a month if you build a big enough group so it’s worth serious consideration.

Whether you want to make new contacts for business or for pleasure ZENZUU gives you all the tools necessary.

Traffic Exchange Sites are one of the most popular and easy way generate traffic to website/blog traffic. Well i guess everyone will agree with that. Traffic Exchange Sites are websites where you get page views of your own site in exchange for visiting others, many such sites are available.
Best part of Traffic Exchange sites is that you have control over your traffic, i.e. you can generate as much as traffic as you like, the more you surf the more traffic you get. Traffic exchanges have a basic system of “you visit my site and I’ll visit yours”. Most exchanges are set up on a credit scale, 1:1 ratio.. it means you view a site once and in turn your site will be view once. But some sites ratio can be up to 3:1 you view 3 times and inturn you get 1 visitor. Don’t bother your self on signing up those exchange sites they may go scam anytime.

Basically there are two types. Manual surfing and Auto surfing. Some Traffic exchanges have only manual surfing (which is best), some have auto surfing only and some cater for both.
Although both offer traffic to your website/blog, auto surfing requires no input, pages will run quitely underneath without even viewing the page content, well that is good as long as you are not the advertiser or as long as your page is not in the rotation.
Because through auto surf you can get traffic to your blog/website but you will never get any leads or referrals. Unlike manual surfing were you not only get traffic to your website/blog, but there is also a much greater chances of you getting referrals/leads or high chances of getting readers to whatever you have got on website/blog.

So now you have brief idea  What Traffic exchange site really is.

Lets get to the site itself.

EasyHits4U

One traffic exchange keeps appearing in the #1 slot on Traffic Hoopla and that is EasyHits4U and  is one of the most trusted exchange site

How it works: For every site you visit/surf, you will receive one visitor back to your site. They provide a fair 1:1 Ratio Exchange. There’s no limit to the amount of free hits you can receive per day — 10, 100, or even 1000!

If you are already member of social networking site you won’t have problem understanding 6dgr. 6dgr is a  social networking website that pays people to develop their networks of friends, family and business associates, then helps them manage their newfound wealth!
As well as providing all the customizable fun and useful features you would expect, 6dgr is dedicated to giving members a chance to make money – real money, not just a few cents – from their own activities and the activities of the networks they build by referring new members. If you only invite 10 friends and they do the same and their friends do the same, you will have people in your direct network (3 degrees deep) program who will make earn $2,340 in cash…..

6dgr members get paid two ways:

1) When you invite your friends, 6dgr will pay you $4 for each friend that signs up and becomes Active! In addition to that, each member is paid $3 for each person their friends sign up who becomes Active, AND another $2 for each person signed up by their friend’s friends that becomes Active! If you only have 10 friends, you can make thousands of dollars!
Imagine the potential for most people who have more than 10 friends! So start referring people form your other social networking site like facebook, yuwie, myspace etc.

2) Active members are also paid a residual amount every month! Have you ever heard of credit card companies offering cash back? The same principle applies with 6dgr, except the percent given back to you is much more significant than a share of one person’s spending.
You are paid a percentage of each individual’s monthly earnings for your entire network. This amount can turn omto hundreds or thousands of dollars in residual income every month for an individual member!

If you’re a resident or a citizen in the US, you can have your 6dgr bonus to be transfered via WAMU direct to your WAMU checking account. For other countries outside of US, 6dgr has recently introduced Paypal for international members.

MyLot is more like social community with more than 150,000 strong users and I am sure that many people who are surfing the Internet long enough, heard of MyLot. MyLot is primarily a site that pays you to participate in discussions or respond to other members’ started discussions.You will be paid for posting discussion about your interest.

You can start your own discussion, reply to those already exsisting or comment to the other people’s answers. Either way, you’ll get paid for it.

The payments depend on the quality of your response, and on how many people respond to a conversation. The actual algorithm used to calculate earnings is still unknown. So how much can you make on MYLOT? Anywhere from 20 to 30 cents per day on an average but you have total control over your earnings by submitting many quality posts and more response you can even make more than $1 or more in a day.  MYLOT pays its members monthly when your account reaches ten dollars.
