Keith James Lock — Fri, 09 Jul 2010 20:58:08 +0000

You may or may not have read my post about getting converting targeted traffic at a penny per click... well, for a short time you can get the same traffic but for essentially 1/2 the price. I got an email today from my affiliate manager at 7Search and he tells me they will be matching your first $100 deposit during the month of July, which could give you traffic to your site(s) for a long time coming!!

Getting Started With Paid Surveys And Mystery Shopping – Guest Post From Michelle Stevens

Keith James Lock — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 00:55:11 +0000

Making money online CAN be for anyone. Affiliate marketing, pay per click marketing, blogging, blog flipping, site flipping and other similar ways to make money online may NOT be for everyone.

My cousin Michelle and I recently spoke at a family gathering and she was telling me about all of the money she was making online with paid surveys, as well as the free meals she was getting by secretly going to restaurants and grading the service and food afterwards. I thought it was pretty interesting so I asked her to write a quick post for my blog.

Here it is... Thanks Michelle.

The First Question I Usually Get Asked Is...How Do I Get Started?

The best way to get started making money from online surveys is to find a reputable company that can give you immediate access to the marketing firms that pay. Firms such as, Make Money Taking Surveys offer a comprehensive list of marketing firms that routinely handle the market research for large international companies.

We all have seen those survey scams in our emails promising large cash awards for taking online surveys. The catch is your name is put in a cash or prize drawing along with thousands of others. The chance of winning anything is quite slim. Registering with an online survey company such as Make Money Taking Surveys takes the guesswork out of searching for a genuine paid survey.

A constantly updated, database of thousands of paid marketing surveys are available once you pay a small fee. The registration fee will usually pay for itself on your first day of taking paid online surveys. Another option to consider is that of mystery shopping. Many opportunities exist for you to shop and dine in your favorite restaurants while being paid for your time, purchases and meals.

You will simply need to complete a survey grading the establishment’s performance. Many stay at home moms have earned substantial incomes form mystery shopping. Although you will need to venture out from your home, you usually can take your children along with you.

Mystery Shopping Until You Drop

You can use mystery shopping jobs as an easy way to earn quick cash or as a convenient and economical way to treat your family to a meal at their favorite chain restaurant such as, Chili’s or Applebee’s. Either way, you will be improving your family’s standard of living and feeling pretty good about it. Companies such as, Shop Until You Drop offers access to thousands of mystery shopper jobs for a small one-time fee. You can search a daily job board to find the best opportunity for your family schedule.

Take Action Today: Register For Online Research Surveys

You really have nothing to lose by registering with reputable online companies such as Make Money Taking Surveys or Shop Until You Drop. Both companies offer a money back guarantee. However, once you start earning significant amounts of cash that make a positive difference in your children’s lives you will be hooked. You can earn money taking online surveys, as a stay at home mom, while your children are napping, at school or dreaming safely in their beds. Who knew? Well now, you and all stay at home moms and even dads know about it.

Still Getting Targeted Converting Traffic At A Penny A Click

Keith James Lock — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 04:22:43 +0000

I wrote about this in the past but I wanted to post about it again because it continues to help my bottom line. Also, the original post is so far buried in the archives, this topic needs some fresh air.

One Red Cent A Click For The Top Spot With 7Search PPC

A great way to send traffic to a web site or landing page with pay per click marketing is by using 7Search PPC. It's perfect for beginners in terms of risk and ease of use. It has been steadily sending me targeted converting traffic for over a year now... and cheap traffic at that. It still amazes me when I launch a new campaign for a new niche how many keywords are still available at a penny a click for the top spot.

No Slaps And No Crazy Rules

You don't have to be super particular about how you setup your web pages like you do with Google, MSN and Yahoo. I send traffic to one page static web sites. I haven't added a contact form, about page, terms and conditions page, privacy policy page...none of that stuff. Just a one page site.

Easy But Flexible

Setting up a campaign with 7 Search PPC is very very easy. It has one of the easiest keyword tools that I've ever used. You can't add keywords to your campaign that they don't have statistics for in their database. It is also very flexible in that you can choose to use custom bids, custom ads and custom destination urls for each of your keywords. If you want to get fancy with it just use this format when adding keywords: keyword ** bid ** Custom Title ** Custom Description ** http://custom-destination-url.com. Otherwise, just dump in the keywords that were generated based on your root keyword.

Keyword Stats

7Search provides some great stats for the keywords you are bidding on. They show you the estimated number of searches per month, the estimated number of clicks for the top position and what the top 3 bid amounts are. You will know exactly what to bid to be in the top spot.

Over 200 Countries To Target

When you create a campaign you are able to select specific countries to target from 246 available countries.

Keyword Bidding Tip

When starting a campaign and using a bunch of keywords, it is sometimes just easy to accept the defaults. Don't accept the default when it comes to the bid amount. It defaults at a nickel. And if you are the only bidder you will be paying the nickel! But you don't have to. Drop it to a penny. Also, when you are in the edit bid amounts mode there is a smart bid option. From my experience the smart bid suggests the perfect bid amount 98% of the time. More often than not it was the bid amount I would have chosen myself, plus it doesn't try to make you overbid for them to get more money. It's fair in that regard and gets you in a great spot among the competitors. I use it everytime to simplify things.

Notifications

You can setup notifications so that you will know when you have been outbid which is handy. In fact, I believe it was on by default, but it's been awhile since I started my account.

Give 7Search A Try

All I could say is try 7Search to see if it works for your niche. You will be pleasantly surprised at the volume of searches that 7Search gets for keywords that still have no bids on them.
