Google Professional Certification

Types of Certification

Companies or individuals can seek AdWords certification. The certification program is for those wanting to show expertise in managing AdWords programs. Successful candidates earn the right to post a Google “Certified Partner” badge on their websites. Google also certifies people as experts in Google analytics, and has an Apps Education Admin certification in the works as of July 2010.

Company Applications

Companies wanting AdWords certification need at least one certified individual on staff. They also need proof that their business has spent at least $10,000 on advertising in the last 90 days. That’s down from $100,000 under the previous GAP certification.

Individual Applications

Passing scores vary from exam to exam, but are in the range of 75 to 85 percent.

Applicants wanting AdWords certification must pass the mandatory online Google Advertising Fundamentals exam as well as one other advanced exam of their choice - search advertising, reporting and analysis, or display. Each exam features 110 to 120 questions that must be completed within two hours. There’s a single exam for analytics certification, and a series of six exams being developed for the new Apps Education Admin certification.

Costs

All exams cost $50 each with the exception of the six Apps Education exams, which are $15 each as of July 2010.

Updating Certification

The new certification was introduced in April 2010. Those certified under the old program have six months to meet the new criteria if they want to maintain certification. Companies will require at least one individual on staff who also meets updated qualifications.

How to Create a Website Get Sponsors

How to Change Your Digg Name

1. Check that another Digg user isn't already using your desired new user name. Log out of your Digg account and click the 'Join Digg!' button at the top of the screen. Type your email address, new user name and click on the password field. Do not click the 'Create Account' button. When you click the password field, Digg automatically checks to see if the user name is available.

How to Set Up a Sheet Music Web Site Business

1. Establish a business plan. Research your competition and come up with a plan to offer something different or better. Decide whether you will be charging for your sheet music or offering it for free, in which case you will need to put your main focus on advertising. You can sell banner space, advertise affiliate programs or pay-per-click (PPC) programs such as Google AdSense.

2. Purchase a domain name and select a hosting service. A domain name is simply your website address. A host is the company that provides you with space for your website. When choosing a host, consider factors such as reliability, access speed, bandwidth, maximum space, technical support and advanced features. If you choose to charge your clients for the sheet music, you will need a host that will provide you with features such as shopping carts and file transfer protocol (FTP) service.

3. Build your website. Add important business information for your visitors such as an FAQ page, an 'About' page and an easy way to contact you. Give your website a professional look using HTML code or a web design software. If you don't have experience designing websites, you can hire a professional to design it for you.

4. Upload your sheet music. If you will be sharing or selling your original sheet music, add a copyright disclaimer on each document in order to protect your work from being sold or used for purposes you do not approve of. You must verify that you have the right to sell any sheet music that is not originally yours. It is highly advised to contact an attorney if you are not sure. If you have contacts with artists or record labels, you can ask them for permission to share or sell their sheet music on your site.

5. Market your website. Advertise your sheet music business on social networks and ask websites with relevant content to exchange links with you; the latter will also give you a higher rank in search engines. To further optimize your website for search engines, include targeted keywords, powerful title tags and meta tags. Title and meta tags are HTML codes inserted into your website to provide search engines with information about your website content.

What Does 'Monetize' Mean on YouTube?

Monetizing Content

'Monetizing' on YouTube refers to enabling YouTube to turn on advertisements on your videos. If you enable ads on your videos, you will earn a cut of the revenue earned from those ads. Not all videos can be monetized, and you must first go through the enabling process, but after you have done so you can enable ads on almost any new upload automatically, as well as monetize all past uploads.

Requirements

In order to be eligible, your videos must first adhere to the YouTube Community Guidelines. This means that all content must abide by YouTube's rules. Your content must also be completely your own -- you are not allowed to profit off of the work of others -- and must be advertiser friendly, which means that if you have any videos flagged for mature content, you cannot enable ads on them.

How to Enable Monetization

To enable ads, you must first have an AdSense account. If you don't have an AdSense account already, log in to your Google account and create one. You will need to provide your address and billing information to proceed, so you must be at least 18 years old to qualify. Once this is complete, you must connect your new AdSense account to your existing YouTube account. This can be done from your Monetization page in your Account Settings.

Monetization Limitations

There are a few different reasons why your account may be ineligible for monetization: if you have applied and been denied previously, or if your account is not in good standing -- for example, if you have had videos deleted for breaking the Community Guidelines. If this is the case, you may need to wait six months for the strikes to vanish from your account. In addition, you won't be eligible if you live in certain countries where monetization is not available.

8. Wait 10 minutes then load your site in a Web browser. See if the ad has appeared correctly. If it has not, return to the source code or plugin and ensure the ad code has been entered correctly, then check again. If the code is present and correct, but the ad has not appeared, try logging out of WordPress and looking again, as some plugins do not display ads to administrators.

How to Get Review Products for Your Blog

1. If you want to obtain products to review, and if you have already crafted some superb content for your blog, the next thing you need to do is make sure people are reading it. Ping search engines, tweet out links to some of your best posts using relative hashtags, comment on other blogs, and promote the great blog you already have put together. Public Relations departments are more likely to respond to a blog with an established readership than to a new blog with an introductory post and a couple of AdSense modules.

2. The second thing you want to do to get products to review for your blog is to establish communication with the type of companies that manufacture products you would like to review. If you are an organic product lover, then find organic company fan pages on facebook and follow their twitter feeds. Casual communication is great for opening doors and for giving you the confidence to pursue step 3.

3. Step 3 is to cold call the companies who create products you would like to review on your blog. Look up their Public Relations contacts online and send an e-mail. If an e-mail address is not available, you can use a 'Contact Us' form to request contact information for a company's PR department specifically.Have a form review product request letter ready that includes the basics of your blog readership numbers, monthly clicks, and comment averages. Present this information along with a tailored pitch related to why you would like the opportunity to review their products. Let the company know the basic types of information you would include in a product review, and let them know the methods of communication you use to promote your blog content.If you are turned down by one company, don't take it too hard. Dust yourself off and contact the next person on your list.

How to Optimize Your Website for Google

1. Design your website in CSS. CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets, which are written instructions for how the site is presented to your visitors. CSS allows you to update the text and appearance of your entire site with little effort.

2. Keep your site design simple. Do not have music or videos loading when someone visits your home page. Keep your site clean and easy to navigate.

3. Use meta tags. Google mainly uses meta tags, such as your Title, Description and Keywords to correctly index your site and put it in the right category.

4. Avoid using giant files that take forever to load. Optimize your images before uploading them to your website.

5. Check your links often. The Google bots won't know what to do if they find a broken link or can't find their way off of your home page. Their only option is to leave, and you want your entire site indexed, not just your landing page. Use text links and avoid JavaScript when creating your navigation, and provide the search spiders with a Site Map.

How to Make Money Using Paid

1. Avoid paid-to-surf scams. Carefully select programs that are fully operational and disclose their ownership to members. Also ensure the companies have a good track record of paying members punctually and that the sites are fully operational. Some paid-to-surf sites will have all sorts of flashy banners and 'join now' ads, but these features might not even be currently available, meaning you won't make any money until then.

2. Seek paid-to-surf sites that have good referral programs because earning such passive income is a good way to increase your earning potential. Don't choose a site only due to referral incentives but do give it consideration for its added earning potential. Such sites should have a good referral tracking system in place; thus, you receive a commission when someone registers under you. Seek programs that pay 10 to 30 percent commissions three to five levels deep.

3. Seek paid-to-surf sites that pay internationally, if you reside outside the U.S. Most programs are U.S.-based and some claim to accept members from other countries but then will have some sort of disclaimer in fine print stating that members outside the States are not paid but are welcome to sign up and 'be the first to benefit.' Obviously, then, it is best to choose a program without such restrictions. If you live abroad, be sure to read the fine print before enrolling with any paid-to-surf program. You do not want to make the unpleasant discovery that you are not getting paid.

4. Enroll with a site that pays decently. While the amounts are small, remember that using several of them at the same time makes your earnings quickly add up. Using multiple sites simultaneously is the way to make money. Try to find sites that pay at least 50 cents per hour and have a good referral program. Most have a limit of how many hours can be used every month. Try and find ones that allow 50 hours monthly but don't sign up with one limiting less than 25 hours. Find out the mode of payment. Some pay only via check, while others use Pay Pal.

For example, if you are making videos about how to play the guitar, join beginner musician forums and link readers to your videos. You can also set up a Facebook page and a Twitter account to connect with people with similar interests. Sign up for an account on each network, and type keywords into the search bar to find people who might watch your videos.

Start a conversation with these people, and then link them to your video.

4. Ensure you have the rights to all content in your uploaded videos. According to Internet News, this includes all audio and visual content, even background music or short clips from TV shows or movies.

A targeted ad is one that is relevant to your video based on viewer demographics or geographic location. Each time a viewer watches your video, you will be paid. The amount you are paid per view depends on the demographics of your audience and the amount the advertiser is willing to pay to reach that audience. Your AdSense account will provide an estimate of how much you will receive per view after you set it up.

What Is JavaScript Used For?

Cookies

Perhaps the most common use of JavaScript is to set and read cookies, small files that contain data related to your use of a site in some way. They may be used to track things such as the last time you visited a website, which advertisements you saw or and items left in your shopping cart.

Advertising

JavaScript plays a prominent role in displaying advertisements on websites. It controls which ads are displayed and may set a cookie on your computer indicating you have seen the advertisement. JavaScript is also used to open windows for pop-up advertisements. Unless your browser restricts it, it may set the size and attributes of the opened window, too.

E-commerce

JavaScript is used extensively on many e-commerce sites. It plays a part in such tasks as adding items to your shopping cart, processing forms and submitting orders to be shipped. It can also be used to display dynamic content to users while shopping, such as related items and the cost of shipping.

Alerts

JavaScript is also used to display simple alerts to users. For instance, if you fill out a form and type in an invalid address or phone number, an alert will appear informing you of the mistake when you click the 'Submit' button.

Security

1. Place ads above the fold. The 'fold' is the area of the screen a visitor sees without scrolling down the page. If a visitor arrives on your page, but decides it is not relevant to his needs he will 'bounce' or leave your site immediately. However, if an AdSense block sits above the fold, the visitor may see an ad related to his needs and click on it.

2. Place ads at the end of content. On content rich pages where you have articles focused on helping people solve a problem, place an ad block directly underneath the content. If the content is interesting and relevant to the keywords used by the visitor to find your page, he will read to the end of the article. Clicking on an ad related to the topic he has been reading about, is a natural progression if he is interested in the subject.

3. Blend ads to match your blog. Ads that have the same color background and borders as your site are more likely to be clicked, as visitors don't see them as ads but more as content related to your site. Make the title of the ad a bright bold color that stands out, or make them the standard blue link color. Internet users are programmed to click on blue links, and using a link color they are accustomed to can help increase CTR.

How to avoid Plagiarism on the Internet

1. Description: Are you an author of a book, article, or any written online content? You may have run into plagiarism issues from other people stealing your working and want to know how to prevent this from happening. Often, I write articles on E-How and I go to extreme measures to prevent plagiarism. This includes rewriting my articles every month, changing titles, and checking for plagiarism.

2. Titles: When you create a certain blog, article, or story title - you need to make sure it has an original title. Meaning a title that no one else has. The first flag of plagiarism is the title and once you change the title, this will remove any suspicion of plagiarism. The best way to avoid plagiarism is by means of following your articles, etc. For example, if you own the rights to an article on E-how and you publish it on two other sites as well, you must be very careful. Make sure you make both titles different.

3. Body: It is always a good idea to rewrite your article or make a different version of it. I know it is a tedious task, however it is rewarding in the long run. The best way to detect plagiarism is by scanning the body for the same wording or phrases. It's better than having your account closed at E-How or getting flagged on Google as two submissions running through their system.

4. Avoiding plagiarism itself: We all know, that sooner or later your article will get flagged for plagiarism from someone who has stolen your work. E-how or Google will count it as two submissions if someone takes your work and posts it on your website. Make sure you always rewrite your oldest articles at least five times or more each month. This includes title and everything in body. That way on E-how they will skip paste your article so it isn't counted as a plagiarized article. Same with Google.

5. Use Copyscape: What Copyscape will do for you is scan your website location and see if there are other submissions online. They will basically check if someone has plagiarized your content and detect plagiarism that already exists. After they find content that is plagiarized, you should find out who the author is and take action. Do you research and send an e-mail with a copied attachment of your work to show you are the author and have rights to the original. Let them know you want them to take the article down. If they don't respond or reply within the next few days, send them another e-mail saying that you will take legal action. This will usually do the trick. If all else fails, re-write your article so you don't get penalized. Just be sure to keep the original copy on your disk, in case you need it in the future.

Post content and information regarding your domain name's theme and integrate it with Google AdSense. If the domain name is buzzworthy, it will attract lots of visitors. Visitors who click on your page's ads will generate revenue for every click.

High Impression Vs. High CTR

What is a Page Impression?

A page impression, more commonly known as a page view, occurs every time an Internet user views a Web page. For example, you will have five page impressions if five different people view that page. The term 'high impression' refers to a high number of page views. It's common to have high impression, but a low number of unique visitors. This is a sign that visitors are sticking around to browse and read other pages on your website. This can be very attractive to advertisers.

What Is a Click-Through Rate (CTR)?

Google Adsense defines a click-through rate (CTR) as the number of clicks on an ad divided by the number of ad impressions (which is the same as page impression). For example, your CTR would be 0.5 percent if there were five clicks on an individual ad, and you had 1,000 page impressions. A high CTR falls in the double digits (10 percent and higher). Most website owners fall between 5 and 10 percent CTR.

High Impression vs. High CTR

From a monetary standpoint, having a high CTR is better than having high impressions. A higher CTR means that more visitors are clicking on your ads. With Google Adsense (or any ad serving program), the more ad clicks you receive, the more money you will make. However, it's important for webmasters to focus their attention on getting higher page impressions. Even with a high click-through rate, if there are not enough visitors coming to the website, there will be a lack of ad clicks to generate any money.

How to Improve CTR

Because CTR is essential to monetizing, webmasters should constantly strive to improve their click through rate. An increased click through rate equates to more money. To improve your CTR, you should experiment with the position of your Google ads, the design and look of your website. Writing quality and original content are also important. You want viewers to stay on your site. The longer they stay and read your content, the more likely it is that they will click on an ad.

How to Start Making Money on Google Adsense

My Google AdSense Login Doesn't Work

Username and Password

Your AdSense username email might not be the same email address you use to log in to other Google services. If you have a Google account, you don't automatically have an AdSense profile. In you haven't previously registered for AdSense, click the 'Sign up now' button. However, assuming you are confident that both email and password are correct and spelled properly, click the 'Can't access your account' link below the main login panel. This brings up the AdSense login troubleshooter. This presents six options describing different error messages.

Error Messages

The first two error message solutions that Google provides involve either a lost/forgotten password, or a non-registered account. In both of these cases, the solutions are fairly straightforward. Google will either send a fresh login link to your email address, or ask you some security questions to resolve the issue. However, the other four options involve either suspended, pending or compromised accounts. If your account is still under review for acceptance, then you must wait until that process is complete before logging in again. Your email account should have a mail containing more details on the matter.

Disabled Accounts

In some cases, Google will suspend either an AdSense account or an entire Google account -- including associated profiles, such as AdSense and Gmail. If your Google account is suspended, it could be because Google believes you have breached their terms of service. If your AdSense was disabled, you should have an email with the details. Generally, accounts believed to have invalid click activity on associated ads or accounts that break other Google policies get suspended. However, in both of these cases, you can appeal the decision by contacting Google through the link provided in the login troubleshooter.

Hacking

In rare cases, your email address and password may not work for AdSense because your account has been hacked. This is when an unauthorized person manages to get into your account. Once inside, he may change your password. Clicking on the option for an incorrect username/password error message brings up a way to access your account. You need to select the option that asks if someone else might be using your account. From there, you can complete a form with questions about your Google account. Be as accurate as possible with the information and Google will help you log in to your AdSense account again.

Sponsored reviews are generally done more in a blog format, but if you have a website, you can easily add a blog and begin writing.

5. Charge for premium content on your website. If you have something valuable to provide to your audience, you can charge a small fee for them to access your information. Give your readers enough information to keep them returning to your site, and then upsell them on subscribing to the premium content you provide. Though this is a great way to make money on your website, you must have the expertise or knowledge to make people want to pay for what you have to say.

How to Become a Map Maker

1. If you have even the slightest interested in becoming a mapmaker, you'll want to start with the basics: education. There are no specific entry requirements to become a mapmaker, although most employers prefer you to have a Bachelor of Science majoring in computing or geography.

2. Enroll in college. Obviously, you'll want to get your basic classes out of first, but as you start taking courses that have to do with mapping and cartographing, you'll immediately get the feel for this highly-specialized career.

3. You should already be studying maps as a hobby. Look at maps from different eras. Note how mapping has become more sophisticated over time.

4. Get familiar with some of the equipment that mapmakers use. Start investigating Geographic Information Systems (GIS), cartography and photogrammetry. Also, an understanding of 'remote sensing' (observing and measuring aspects of the Earth from a distance) is incredibly important.

5. Get a Bachelor of Science degree in cartography, geography, engineering, forestry or physical science.

6. Learn as much about computers as you can, as cartographers rely on computers for mapping more than ever. That said, some mapmakers have postgraduate qualifications in GIS as well.

7. During summers and before you go to college (or if you're ambitious, during school) get a job at a construction site, architectural or engineering firm or government agencies. Other areas of potential for mapmakers are in urban planning, emergency preparedness and natural resource exploration.

How to Add a Text Record in HostGator

1. Log into your HostGator cPanel as you usually do. Your cPanel login URL is your domain name followed by '/cpanel,' such as 'www.mydomainname.com/cpanel.' Login details were included in your welcome email when you signed up for your HostGator account.

2. Click on the 'Advanced DNS Zone Editor' icon on the main screen once you are logged in. Select your domain name from the drop-down menu, and then select the domain that you want to add the text record to.

3. Go to the 'Add A Record' section. Input the details for your text record. For the 'type' field, you must put 'TXT' for it to be a text record.

4. Click on 'Save' when you are done, and the new text record for that domain will be saved to your HostGator account.

How to Advertise in Your City Over the Internet

Google Adsense Advertising

1. Sign up for a Google Adsense account through the main advertiser site. Create the account in the name of your business, but be sure to indicate an authorized person to handle your online advertising campaign.

2. Set a budget for your Google advertising campaign. While it makes sense to begin with a small amount, your budget should be large enough to draw a meaningful number of new customers to your business. Allocate your budget between different keywords or text ads.

3. Choose a local targeting range for your campaign. Larger areas, such as entire states, will display your ad to a wider audience while smaller areas, such as individual ZIP codes, will restrict your campaign to nearby potential customers.

4. Visit the Google Adsense manager often to view ad click-through rates and costs. The Adsense manager allows you to make multiple daily adjustments to all aspects of your campaign and helps you improve the efficiency of your marketing budget.

Facebook Ad Manager

5. Sign up for an account through the Facebook Ad Manager. This platform is the second dominant advertising platform for small businesses. The Facebook Ad Manager allows you to create targeted, local display and text advertising that will appear on the right side of the page of Facebook users.

6. Choose images and text for your ads. The Facebook Ad Manager allows your business to create multiple variations of a specific ad. You can test the effectiveness of each variation of campaign and sequentially improve each round of advertising. Make incremental changes to your campaigns by adjusting only an image or text line for each variation.

7. Select targets for your ad campaign based on the demographic profile of Facebook users, including their location and their interests. For example, if your business sells pet food, you should select pet owners in your area or local fans of pet pages as targets. You may also consider selecting Facebook fans of your competitors as potential customers.

How to Create a Google Adsense Website

1. Build your site's content by adhering to the Google AdSense policies. No pornography, violent content or illegal items can be placed on your site. You are also not allowed to encourage users to click on the links by placing misleading images or messages on your website.

2. Fill out an application to have your website considered for the AdSense program. You will need to provide your URL and your account information. You must also agree to the program's policies not to place ads on pornographic sites or to use click-encouragement techniques.

3. Sign into your AdSense account once you have been approved by Google. Select 'Get Ads' from the main menu to begin setting up your Google AdSense website. Choose 'Ad Unit.'

4. Adjust your Google AdSense ad's appearance. You can change the color and format of the ads to suit the theme and look of your website. After this step, you will need to give your ad a name to manage it from your AdSense account.

5. Receive the HTML code for your ad. Copy the code and place it on your site to start making money from the ad. You will want to put the ad in a visible spot that will likely garner the most views. Google will match up your site to one of its vendors.

7. Click 'Save and Finish'.

8. Go to the Google Analytics page (see resources) at periodic intervals to view the statistics on website visitors.

How to Make Money With Revenue Sharing Websites

1. Websites that allow you to make money through a revenue sharing program are one of the best ways to earn online. These types of sites are generally based on participation, whether by you directly or by visitors to your site.

2. When paid for your direct participation, such as here at eHow, and other writing sites, the key is in the numbers. You must be an active member or writer to earn a substantial income. A few articles here and there will usually not be sufficient in creating a decent income. You must try to contribute at least one or more articles per day to see good results.

3. The same is true for online communities that offer revenue sharing. It is very important to be an active member and contribute to the community. This means posting new discussions and responding to other's discussions. The more active you are, the more you will earn.

4. In the case of earning from others participation, such as with Google AdSense, the key here is to get as many visitors to your site or blog as possible. This increases the odds of getting clicks on your AdSense ads. To improve your earnings here, you will need to focus on increasing the number of visitors to your site, which can easily be done with many free advertising and marketing options (see free advertising link below, under the resources heading).

5. As you can see, earning with revenue sharing is determined by your level of participation. Even when you rely on others, as with AdSense, you will need to continuously work on getting traffic. By focusing on just a few programs, you can maintain a high level of contribution and earn significantly more than spreading yourself thin and making only a few cents with multiple programs.

How to Improve Your AdSense Performance With Google Analytics

1. Log into your Google account on the Google homepage. Click on your email address on the top right side of the screen to bring up a drop-down menu, and click 'Account Settings.' On the bottom of the screen, you will see a tab that says 'Try Something New' with a list of Google products listed. You can scroll through the available products until you see 'Analytics.' Click 'Analytics' and wait until you are taken to the program's home screen.

2. Sign up for Google Analytics. Once you have a Google Analytics account, you can generate a piece of custom code. Copy the code and paste it into each page on your website you want tracked.

3. Log into your Google Analytics account on a daily basis to see the results that are tracked on your website. When you get into Google Analytics, you will be able to see the number of daily visitors, where they came from, where their geographic region is and other information about each one.

4. Tailor the content on your site to accommodate the visitors coming to it. For example, if the visitors are coming from a particular geographic region in the world, you can create some content that would satisfy them. You can also see which sites are referring the visitors. You can then imagine what visitors from those types of sites would appreciate on your site. You can make some small changes to the content to accommodate these people. You can even see what types of browsers they are using to visit your site. This will help you ensure the content on your site is usable with these Internet browsers.

How to Increase Website Advertising Revenue

1. Experiment with ad placement and size. Standard advice is to have a large ad placed 'above the fold' where users are likely to see it. This may not work in your situation. Try putting ads in the middle or at the end of your text, moving them from the left side of the page to the right or using different sizes of ads. A simple change could make a big difference.

2. Blend ads with your editorial content. Eyetrack, which studies the way that people view Web pages, found that readers were more likely to look at an ad that blends with the page, rather than one that stands out.

3. Match the offers with your readers. The ads on your site should be for things that would interest the people who come to your site -- toys and diapers for a parenting site, for example, or golf equipment for a golfing site. If you're using a service that chooses ads for you based on you page text, tightly focus the text around the types of ads that you want people to see.

4. Explore alternatives to AdSense. The ease of AdSense has captured the interest of many new Web masters -- you simply paste the code into you site and Google does the rest. This doesn't mean that it's the most profitable, however. You may find better luck using ads that pay you a portion of the sale that you make. Find these companies through sites like Commission Junction, LinkShare or Amazon, which has its own associate program.

5. Increase your website traffic. The more traffic you have, the more likely people are to see your ads and click on them. Higher traffic can also allow you to demand higher prices for direct advertisements. Increase traffic through blogging, social media, improved search engine optimization or advertising on other sites.

6. Track all of your testing results. As you make these changes to your site, it's important to pay attention to which changes are most beneficial. Keep the methods that work and ditch the ones that don't.

How to Advertise Your Blog Site

1. Write compelling content. Keep your new blog exciting by including value-rich content. In the book 'Problogger--Secrets for Blogging Your Way to a Six-Figure Income,' Chris Garret writes: 'Half the battle of getting a blog off the ground is to have not just 'good' content but compelling content.'

2. Read other bloggers and comment. Spend time each day reading other blogs of similar content. When you read something you like, leave an encouraging comment. It is very important to actively take part in the blogging community and develop relationships with like-minded bloggers. This helps you establish credibility, and people will then be more interested in what you have to say.

3. Bookmark and link to your favorite bloggers on your own blog. When you show that you value what other bloggers have to say, they are more likely to link back to you. This increases your exposure, helps increase your credibility and is very helpful in the search engines.As the editors of The Huffington Post say: 'You want people to visit your blog, right? Other people want readers to come to their blogs as well. Providing links is the blogosphere equivalent of doing unto others as you would have them do unto you.'

4. Join blogging forums and blogging groups. Getting involved in what other people are doing and saying is vital if you want to be taken seriously as a credible blogger. By joining forums and groups, you show that you are interested in building relationships. Answer questions, offer support, and ask questions to show that you are real and helpful and not just interested in yourself. It also helps to establish yourself as an authority in your field by taking part in the conversation and helping others.

5. Write a press release. Press releases offer a great way to announce your new blog to the world. They offer several advantages. They give backlinks to your website, increase exposure from another credible website and increase link popularity in search engines.

6. Create a Facebook Account. Advertising your blog within your Facebook profile is another way to increase exposure. Facebook now has over 400 million active users, which makes for a huge marketing resource. Don't forget to make friends first.

7. Join the conversation through Twitter. Find like-minded people and topics by using hashtags (placing '#' before your search word or phrase); listen to the conversation. Follow people and then share content. Twitter each time you post new articles and encourage conversation.

How to Move a PhpBB Installation

1. Navigate to the 'Backup Database' menu in the phpBB Administrator panel and perform a full database backup. This will save a copy of your forum's complete database to the default backup folder.

2. Download all files in the phpBB folder using your usual FTP software or online file manager. Every file contained on your Web server should be copied to a backup folder on your hard drive.

How to Create a Links Page

1. Envision the basic layout. Using a word processor like Microsoft Word or OpenOffice Write, or an HTML editor like Dreamweaver or FrontPage, create an example of how each link should look. Decide what components each link listing will have. Consider items such as title and descriptions.

2. Save the file as HTML. Give the file a title in the 'File Name' box. From the 'File Type' dropdown, select 'Web Page (*.html)'. Be sure to save it somewhere that you can easily access it, such as your Desktop or Documents folder.

3. Add the links. Using the template you created in Step 1, enter each link you want to display. Make sure the links are distinct from the other text, through special colors, styling or images. This will make it easier for your readers to know where to click.

4. Save and view the finished file. Locate the file and open it with your web browser. If there are any changes you'd like to make as to how it displays, open the file in your editing program again, and make them now. Also make sure the links work correctly, and you are taken to the correct website when you click on them.

5. Upload the file to your website. Use an FTP program to upload the new file to your website. Edit the other files to link to your new links page.

How to Place Ads Between Posts

2. Log into your Google AdSense account and select the 'AdSense Setup' from the menu. Choose the 'AdSense for Content' option and click on 'Ad Unit.' Choose the ad format, color and size. Click 'Continue' to generate the AdSense code.

3. Identify the place within the text that you want to place the AdSense code. If your Web page uses frames, make sure the code is being copied into the main frame. Place AdSense ads between paragraphs or to the left or right of the text.

4. Type the code below into the place where you want to place the AdSense code.

5. Copy your AdSense code between the tags.COPY ADSENSE CODE

6. Customize the placement of the AdSense ads within the text. For example, if you want the ads to align left with at least 30 pixels of space between the right of the ads and the Web page text, insert: instead of .

7. Click 'File' and 'Save' in the Web page or text editor to save the changes to your page.

How to Use WordPress

1. Go to your hosting company's website and log into your account. Make sure you are at the control panel of your user profile once you are logged in.

2. Scroll through the control panel or profile options until you see WordPress. Depending on what type of hosting service you have it will be listed in the 'Software/Services' section of the control panel.

3. Click on the WordPress icon and choose whether you want to install a new version or import an existing installation.

4. Check you email for a message from WordPress with your user name and password. This is what you will use to access your WordPress account. You may always have the option to change the default generated password into your own code.

5. Log into your WordPress account. Click 'Appearance on the left hand toolbar and select 'Add New Themes. Choose which theme options you want and click 'Find Themes' to find a theme. Click 'Install > Install Now > Activate' to enable a theme. You may also disable themes by going to 'Appeareance > Themes > Delete.'

6. Go to 'Plug-ins > Add New Plug-ins' to search for plug-ins to add to your sites. Plug-ins may offer the latest Twitter Tools or even SEO for you website.

7. Explore the options on the 'Dashboard.' Do not be afraid to edit your site's PHP by going to 'Appearance and clicking 'Editor.' However if you choose to do this make sure you copy and paste the HTML code into a .Doc file so you can save a backup. Although WordPress is an extremely easy to use software it does not mean that it is error free.

How to Make Money Using Blogger.com

1. Sign up with a Google AdSense account. AdSense works by analyzing the text you have on your page, then displaying text ads that may be relevant to your content. When a visitor clicks on one of these links, AdSense pays you a small amount. You need a high-traffic blog in order to make money with AdSense, because each click isn't worth much on an individual basis -- you need a lot of clicks.

2. Provide a service through your blog. For instance, you might blog about business advice while also offering a consulting service. Attract people to your blog, get them interested, then sell them whatever service you're offering. The service can be anything from consulting to writing to graphic design.

3. Join an affiliate marketing program, such as Amazon.com. This requires that you set up a link to a particular product on your page. Every time someone clicks on your link and purchases a product, you get a cut of the proceeds. The percentage of the cut varies depending on the deal you've set up with the product's owner.

4. Create a tip jar for donations, such as the 'Buy Me a Coffee' one that Chris Garrett used for ChrisG.com. Tip jars work best when you give the reader a reason to donate -- such as to buy you a coffee, or help fund a trip to help people overseas -- and when you have a large readership. Expect only a small percentage of people to donate.

5. Sell branded products from your blog. For instance, if you have a blog dedicated to the pictures you've taken of animals in Africa, you can sell prints of the photos you put up, or use a website like CafePress.com to put these images on T-shirts or mugs, then sell these products.

6. Write and sell an ebook through your blog. Generally, this would be an ebook about something related to your blog, providing a more in-depth look at some of the topics you've covered in your posts.

How to Submit My Articles to a Google Group

Submit an Article to a Google Group

1. Go to www.google.com.

2. Click on 'More.' When the popup box appears, slide your pointer over to 'Groups' and click. You will see a 'Search Groups' button at the top of the screen, 'Search for a Group' button in the middle of the screen and a 'Start a group' form at the bottom left of the screen.

3. As a first measure, in the 'Search Groups' form, perform a search for 'article' and whatever keyword is important to you. For example, 'article widget' should turn up a list of all groups that allow postings of articles on widgets or that contain posts with both of the words 'article' and 'widget' within them.

4. Another keyword search you can perform is 'reprint article.' Search for 'reprint article' and your specific keyword topic. You can also search for specific groups. Some popular Google Groups that allow writers and marketers to post articles are Reprint Articles for Ezines and Websites, Free-Reprint-Articles, and free-article-content.

5. If you know a specific group that accepts article submissions, go ahead and perform a search for that group. Go back to the Google Groups search page and, in the 'Search for a group' form, type in the name of the group you want to find. For example, if I want to find Free-Reprint-Articles, then I'll type that name into the search box and scroll down until I find the group I'm looking for.

6. You will likely not be able to distribute articles through a Google Group until you join that Group. Click on the title of the group that you want to join.

7. Click on 'Join this group.' You will get a screen with a sign in form on one side and a 'New to Google Group?' prompt on the other. If you are not a member of Google Groups, you'll have to join Google Groups before you can join any specific group.

8. Join Google Groups and follow the directions. Then join the specific group you want to join. Be sure to read the FAQs and rules of the group before submitting articles. When ready, post a message.

9. One more way that you can find a group where you can post your articles is to browse the Google Groups categories. To do this, go back to the main Google Groups search page.

10. Click on the 'Browse group categories' link.

11. You can search by topic, region, language, activity level and number of members. Click on a link and keep narrowing your focus until you find a group that is suitable for your interests.

Create a Google Group

12. Another way you can distribute your articles through Google Groups is to create a group. This allows you to moderate a group and to set the rules and guidelines for posting to your group. You can allow other people with similar interests to post their articles to your group or close it so that people can join and read but can't post unless given the proper privileges.

13. Back at the main Google Groups search page, go to the 'Start a group' form and fill it in.

14. Give your group a name that will accurately portray the nature of your group and the audience you are seeking.

15. Add an e-mail address so that you can receive messages through the group.

16. If you already have a mailing list that you want to add, type in the e-mail addresses of your list members.

17. Complete the process by clicking on 'Create' and following the directions.

18. You can begin posting your articles after you have set your moderator preferences, which either allows others to post to your group or simply read and enjoy.
