How to Earn Money With Google Analytics



1. Monitor a website's performance. Apply Google Analytics software and immediately start tracking the specific traffic on your site. Re-inventing your site is re-inventing your online business; it can earn you dollars.

2. Use Google Analytics on Google Adwords and Adsense. These stand-alone elements of a search engine use keyword-specific patterns to attract web traffic; using Google Analytics can make them more effective. The combination of the targeted ads with truly accurate tracking tools is a powerful one for calculating admakers.

3. Compare keyword campaigns. Many sites are using keyword driven SEO (search engine optimization) articles. They have writers and servers: what they may not have is a way to evaluate their campaigns. Google Analytics fills this gap and helps operators improve for bigger earnings.

4. Use Geotargeting for web traffic demographics. Specific features of Google Analytics help users find out where their audience is coming from. Knowing who is browsing your site helps business owners envision future changes to focus on the right groups.

5. Use time-based trend models to evaluate web use over time. Another special feature of Google Analytics is chronological charts that will show dynamically what is happening on a site or campaign over time. This helps users think about how to get that graph to spike using creativity and known data.

How to Maximize Sponsorship Revenue



1. Create a list of corporations and individuals that could have an interest in your cause. Maintaining and adding to this list should be a priority. Enter all perspective sponsors into a database management system. There are many different donor management software applications on the market that not only allow you to manage resources, but provide many tools for marketing to donors. (See Resources)

2. Develop a cause marketing campaign. Define your cause, program or project needs and benefits of sponsorship in a clear and simple statement. Design a method to deliver your message and sponsorship request. Methods of delivery can include an online promotion or donation tables set up within organizations with which you form strategic partnerships.

3. Plan events for the public and offer sponsors advertising space. Events that promote maximum visibility include 5K, half-marathons or marathons, festivals or professional conferences. Event planning should include an analysis of your audience, an event committee and volunteers, a timeline, budget, publicity plan and sponsorship proposal literature. Information should be in print and online and can include letters to key sponsors, posters, brochures for the public and informative web pages.

4. Set sponsorship levels. Sponsorship levels are like tiers that provide a framework for donations. Create a wide range of sponsorship levels so that individuals as well as large corporations have options to donate. Sponsorship levels should be priced according to the benefits offered at each level. For example, sponsorship levels can begin as low as $1-$100 to sponsor one child in a summer program and as high as $100,000 to sponsor a summer program that serves at-risk children throughout the city.
