How to Make an Internet Magazine

1. Create a concept for your Internet magazine, and be as specific as possible. If you want to create a fiction magazine, decide on a genre and a focus. For example, you might decide to run a romance magazine focusing on vampire romance. Nonfiction magazines should be even more specific: a magazine focusing on tools for beading jewelry crafters, for instance. Sharply focused magazines are easier to run and market.

2. Choose a title, and at the same time, buy a domain name. Don't agonize over 'the perfect' domain name; just pick something close to the title of your magazine. The vampire romance zine above, for instance, could be www.love-bytes.com or www.dark-love.com.

3. Choose a commercial (not free) web host that offers unlimited storage and bandwidth and that has received excellent reviews. Your website should have, at minimum, a cover page home page, a table of contents linked to stories and an archive section. Many online magazines also run forums for writers and readers, and some also offer an email version of their magazine that readers can subscribe to. You may not know everything you will want to do with your ezine yet, so try to keep your options open.

4. Decide how you're going to monetize your magazine. Even if you're just running your zine for love, it's smart to try to turn enough profit to offset expenses and maybe even pay your writers a little bit. The simplest and surest way to make money from your magazine is by running advertisements provided by Google's Adsense program and by signing up to do affiliate sales for Amazon.

5. Create your website template and the logo for your website. Keep it simple for your first launch: home page, story/article pages, advertising slots, a table of contents.Develop a writer's contract. Writers will need to assign you electronic rights to publish their stories, and you will need to inform them of exactly how long their stories will remain electronically available, as well as what your future plans for their stories are. You will also need a page outlining submission guidelines. The easiest way to develop both these documents is by visiting online magazines that are similar to yours and using their guidelines and contract as samples.

6. Advertise for submissions to your magazine. Post advertisements at writers' websites and on Craig's List. If you offer to pay for published stories, you are likely to be swamped with submissions. Give yourself plenty of time (ideally, about six months) between requesting submissions and launching your first issue, as it will take time to wade through manuscripts.Before you're ready to launch your magazine, you should have enough submissions lined up to fill two magazine issues. Generate, acquire or find graphics for your magazine, as well.

7. Once your first magazine is in place and you have user-tested it to ensure your links work, you're ready to launch. Have a marketing plan in place so you'll have good traffic from the very beginning. Advertise using Adsense or Yahoo! ads (many web hosts give away a limited amount of these when you first sign up), and create a Facebook page so you can advertise there, as well. If you have any famous writers publishing in this issue, write and distribute a press release to the appropriate industry media. Put up fliers in your local bookstores and libraries. Ask friends and family to advertise your ezine, and ask writers in the issue to advertise, as well.Then start preparing your next edition.

How to Add a Google Banner to a Website

1. Sign up for Google AdSense. If you already have a Google account, you can sign in using that email address and password. If you don't have a Google account, you can sign up for one by clicking the 'Sign Up Now' button. You'll need to enter website information, contact information and agree to the AdSense policies.

2. Sign in to AdSense and click the 'AdSense Setup' tab. Click 'AdSense for Content.'

3. Customize the appearance of the ad. You can choose 'Ad Unit' by clicking the bubble to the left. Click the drop-down menu to the right to choose whether you want text ads, image ads or a mix of both. Click 'Continue.'

4. Choose the size, colors, font, corner style and what you want to display if no relevant ads are available. When you're satisfied with your choices, click 'Continue.'

5. Add channels if you wish to track your ad's performance. This will help you determine whether an ad posted at the top of the page is more effective than one under the text, for example. If you aren't concerned with optimizing the ad's performance, you don't have to add any channels. When you're satisfied, click 'Continue.'

6. Name the unit--'Header Banner,' for example--and click 'Submit and Get Code.' Copy the code that appears. Open a new tab in your browser and go to your website. Each website is different, so you'll have to figure out how to edit the site's appearance. Your website's Help section can provide more information if you don't already know how to edit your content. Paste the code from the AdSense website into your website's code.

7. Visit your website to check out your new banner ad!

How to Start a Moneymaking Website Free

1. Find a free website platform you can comfortably navigate. Blogs are an excellent way to start your free website. 'Blogger,' Google's version of the blog, is easy to use and easily searchable.

2. Choose a topic that you know a lot about. Create a name for your blog, as well as a URL, that relates to what your blog is about. Creating an online presence is all about making your blog easily searchable.

3. Decide on keywords your blog topic relates to. Write three articles of 500 to 700 words each, that use your keywords. Use each keyword no more than three times for each article. Upload the articles to your blog.

4. Seek vendors to advertise on your blog. What you're doing is renting space for them to advertise. Different ways to advertise pay differently, so look for the one that works for you. 'Blogger' has its own system called AdSense.

5. Research businesses that want you to advertise by having you write about their product on your blog. This can be lucrative depending on the company and product.

6. Maintain your blog and edit it meticulously. Continue to work with keywords. The wider your audience, the more you can earn from advertisers. The more visits your blog gets, the higher the rate others will pay for space on your blog.

How to Sell More Online Advertising Effectively

1. Place banners of your own on available space with an 'Ad Space For Sale' graphic, indicating that the available spaces on your site have not yet been purchased by other vendors and are available for purchase or rent. Include an email by which the interested customer may contact you.

2. Free more space on your site to sell at the top of each page. Advertisers are interested in having their ads seen as soon as the page appears without the user needing to scroll down the page. These spaces are more valuable, and you can charge more for them over ads at the bottom of your site.

3. Prepare a statement of your website's activity that you can send to interested buyers. Include how many hits your site gets a day and how many ad clicks the other advertisements receive. Include the number of impressions each currently shown ad has. An impression is the number of times an ad is shown to a viewer, though not necessarily clicked. Prove to the potential buyer that your space has the ability to make them money by showing them that your site is frequently visited. Gather demographic data on the people who visit your site.

4. Offer incentives that the buyers will receive upon advertising with your site. These may include coupons or special promotions for your own company's products. If you are running a blog, consider offering to have the ad sponsors do a guest post for you.

5. Gather customer feedback from advertisers who have already purchased space on your site. Hearing the growth that your other advertising companies have experienced may be enough to convince your potential buyer to give your site further consideration.

6. Price your space correctly. If your site is not as high traffic as your competitors, lower your price until you gather enough testimonials from other companies to give your site the credibility it deserves. Raise your price once you start getting enough offers to fill your spaces and you have to rotate advertisements regularly.
