Doors ARE Closing On Your Traffic

Dear friends,

Good news and bad news today.

Good news:

Marketing on the Fringe 2.0 finally gives you a path to truly automated traffic without

breaking the bank. or a sweat.

Bad news:

Only 500 copies will be sold and I've just been told that they 're almost gone.

I think it's vital that YOU get inside this program

For so many marketers, the only thing standing in their way is a consistent flow of cheap targeted traffic.

But who wants to spend their life commenting on blogs, forums, and submitting articles to no end?

I sure don't.

And now you don't have to.

Just get this

And worry about your conversions, your customer service and finding new niches.

It's no wonder that big companies have shelled out tens of thousands for Bill to build them their own traffic machines on the web.

How to make big money

AdSense a program by Google which you plug into any website and Google shows some text advertising on the website. Whenever some visitor clicks on an ad the owner of the website (YOU) get paid. You get paid for every click. How much you get paid depends on the keywords that make up your web page which displays the ads. This can range from 0.10 cents per click to as high as $20 per click for the higher paying keywords such as travel and credit repair related. The ads are related to the content of your page.

Signing Up For AdSense:

To sign up for your Free Google Adsense Account go to www. google. com/adsense

Google require you to have a website or a blog before you can sign up for an Adsense account so if you do not have an account, then create a blog at www. blogger. com (free). When you created your blog, use your blog URL when you sign up for an AdSense account.

Once you get your account. You can log in to get your ad code which you put on your webpages to show AdSense ads. There are different style of ads you can choose from. You can even change the colours around.

Ad Placement:

According to the research done by The Eyetrack III research released by The Poynter Institute. A visitor first looks at the logo, then looks for the headline in the top LEFT of the screen and then scans down the left of the screen for site navigation before looking around the page.

Here are some snippets from the research site:

"The eyes most often fixated first in the upper left of the page, then hovered in that area before going left to right. Only after perusing the top portion of the page for some time did their eyes explore further down the page."

"Dominant headlines most often draw the eye first upon entering the page -- especially when they are in the upper left"

"We found that ads in the top and left portions of a homepage received the most eye fixations." (this is where the Google Adsense ads should be)

What we need to do is make sure we place AdSense ads near the top of the page and some on the left of the page. This strategy is proven to get you more clicks which result in more money for you.

This is also a sneaky way of making the ads appear as navigation links. Visitors click without realizing they're ads. This can be extremely effective indeed.

You should also create the ads so they compliment your website's colour theme and style. They should fit right in and look natural. You can change the background colour and text colour of your ads from you AdSense account.

Another AdSense feature you should add to your site is, AdSense for Search. This is like an ordinary Google search box but instead of displaying just the ordinary search results, it displays AdSense ads on top of the normal search results. With this you can make money whenever someone searches from your site and clicks on the results!

Optimising Webpage:

To get more click happy traffic in the long run you need to optimise your website for the search engines. You don't need to go crazy with the latest and greatest search engine optimisation (SEO) tricks. Just use the basic ones which I mention below.

1) Add meta tags to your site like this:

Now on the first line, replace xxxDescriptionxxxx with brief description of your website. On the second line replace the xxxxx with your keyword of keyphrase separated by commas. These keywords should be related to the content of your webpage. For example: If your webpage is about cars you would put something like, cars, car repair, car hire, fast cars etc etc. You do not need to change the third line.

Make sure you put the meta tags before the tag on each of your webpages.

2) Create a lot of keyword rich content pages. Put the keywords in their titles. Each page should be optimised with meta tags, appropriate keywords and of course, AdSense ads. Make sure these pages are linked to each other.

3) Ad some dynamic auto updating content to your site. Like news feed.

Search engines like them.

4) Build your webpage content around high paying keywords such as cars, shopping, credit repair, travel etc. Keywords in these niches pay more money per click. So if a webpage on your site is about credit repair, the AdSense ads on the page would be about credit repair which is a high paying AdSense keyword. These keywords can pay as high as $20 per click.

All this can be quite complicated but it is very effective in making you more money. You can however, take a big shortcut and just skip all this by purchasing my highly optimised, AdSense-Ready, Keyword and Content Rich Website straight out of the box style. This kick-ass website features everything mentioned in this report plus much more and is packed with cutting edge features. People who bought it give it positive reviews and claim to be making thousands of dollars per month from it. I highly recommend

this website which would save you so much time, effort and even money.

Don't Waste Your Money

Cell phones are not cheap. At an average of $85 a month for a smartphone, that's almost a $1,000 a year -- not including the cost of the phone.

But some savvy people like Teresa Kannenberg are earning back some of those dollars by making money on their cellphone.

We caught up with Kannenberg as she grabbed a shopping cart and headed into Target, where she planned to make some money.

No, this mom doesn't work at the store. Rather, she shops with apps that pay her back.

So far, she says, she has earned more than $800 in one year.

Her favorite? Ibotta. She's the third top Ibotta earner locally.

I've saved over $450 just with Ibotta," she said.

How does it work?

She buys items that are up for rebates, and are listed on the Ibotta app that week.

For instance, she says "you would go into Target, you would buy chips, and you would get 20 cents when you submitted your receipt."

Other products give her a bigger rebate:

She'll get 50 cents back on Ajax cleanser. She'll earn $1 back on a pack of granola bars. She will receive 75 cents back from buying Juicy Juice this week.

"You buy the items that are on the list, submit your receipt, and you get money," she said.

How You Can Earn Money

So clearly, it's no secret you can make money using various apps on your smart phone, but knowing which apps that will work best for you will only help increase your earnings.

Eat right, workout and get rewarded for your healthy actions! Set some goals, challenge others and let the incentive of earning extra cash keep you on track!

Gym-pact. There are 3 different types of 'pacts' you can join. There's Gym-pact, Veggie-pact and a food logging pact to help you stay in shape, eat more veggies, and log your meals. Rewards are based off the number of days you commit to your pact and what you complete. If you meet your Pact, you get a cash reward for each day committed, paid for by those who didn’t make it. Rewards have generally been $0.30 to $5 per week, depending on the number of activities committed. Stakes are just for personal motivation and will not affect your weekly rewards. Gym-pact is available on iPhone and Android phones.

DietBet. This app offers two types of challenges: the Kickstarter, a four-week challenge in which you aim to lose 4 percent of your body weight and the Transformer, a six-month challenge, during which your goal is to lose 10 percent.

Simply turn on the app, choose a charity, and press start. As you exercise, the app will track your distance and the money earned. When you're finished, accept your sponsorship, spread the word, and they'll even send you a note confirming your good work. Charity Miles is available on iPhone and Android phones.

Smartphone apps that will pay you to try other apps

Most apps that are created need to be beta-tested to ensure they work, any bugs they might have are fixed and and to gather user feedback. The apps below are where you can access the information to try these new apps for cash.

Elusive Stars. Get paid to try out apps from developers. Developers reach out to Elusive Stars to provide the apps. They then send out the apps to testers, or the people that use Elusive Stars. As a tester you have the unique opportunity to test apps before they are available elsewhere. Testing is easy, as you are supposed to just use the app like you would any other, then complete a review. Your feedback is critical as it gives developers the information they need to improve their app. Once you submit a review, you'll earn money. Once you get to $10, the money is directly deposited into your PayPal account. Elusive Stars is available on iPhone and Android phones

MyCrowd. This app works by having customers submit their sites or apps, and setting “bounties” (how much they’re willing to pay for each bug found). Then users of MyCrowd (you) test the sites or apps submitted; looking for bugs and issues that could be causing a not-so-great experience. You'll then get paid for each bug you find. MyCrowd makes it easy to see which bugs have already been found, so you won’t waste time submitting bugs that someone else has submitted. After submitting your findings, you can earn points that can be redeemed for rewards.

ReviewForDev. This works a lot like the other apps mentioned above. Download new apps through ReviewForDev and get paid per review. The website claims you'll get a minimum of $4 for each app review validated and up to $7 for an app beta test. ReviewsForDev is available on iPhone and Android phones.

Other apps that can earn you extra cash

If you're looking for additional ways to make money using your smartphone, perhaps you can try one of the apps listed below. From uploading photos, allowing ads on your lock screen or taking some quick surveys, here's a few more options to make money using your smart phone.

Ibotta. This is one of Megan's personal favorites because of the ease of earning. Shop any of the nearly sixty chains stores that support Ibotta. Then, when you’re shopping at any one of those stores and you buy any of the things listed on your offer wall, you’ll earn the dollar amount listed under the item! The money is then delivered to your account through Pay Pal. Ibotta is available on iPhone and Apple products.

Clashot. This is another one that Megan Fenno approves of. It's a mobile and stock photo website. Once Clashot is downloaded, you can then upload photos to the app directly from your smartphone. That allows millions of photobank clients from all over the world to see your photos. If the photobank clients choose to use your photo(s), you'll receive a commission. Imagine if your photo was used thousands of times. Clashot is available on iPhone and Apple products.

IconZoomer. Iconzoomer is a network-based app where people show their lives through snapshots of consumer activities.

Locket. Locket is an android lock screen app that allows you to see and share content with your friends right from your lock screen to earn some extra money. This seems to be quite a popular app for Android users, as it was selected as one of the best apps of 2017 by Google. Again, this app is only available for Android devices.

Npolls. Take polls or surveys regarding a wide range of topics and earn money that is directly deposited into your PayPal account. NPolls encourages people to be critical, well-informed and involved in global issues. Ultimately, everyone has the right to participate and share opinion on matters that concern them. Make your voice heard above the local community. Npolls is available on iPhone and Apple products.

Mobee. The Mobee app is another fun shopping app that allows you to shop at the stores you love, but incognito -- as a mystery shopper.

Here are 11 strategies but you'll also need quite a bit of luck on your side

By A. Gary Shilling

updated 3/29/2007 2:01:45 PM ET 2007-03-29T18:01:45

An unprecedented number of Americans have received unprecedented incomes and accumulated unprecedented net worth in recent years. Sure, the gains are tempered by the reality that while the top tier is gaining, the income shares of the rest are falling. Many Americans have seen no purchasing power gains in decades, and they've only recently advanced because of the big fall in energy prices.

But lack of income didn't deter spending. In aggregate terms, spending has risen a half percentage point per year faster than after-tax incomes for 25 years, pushing the saving rate from 12 percent in the early 1980s to -1 percent today. Many financed their excess spending growth by tapping stock appreciation during the long 1982 to 2000 rally and, more recently, their house appreciation.

While Washington politicians and even Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke wring their hands over income polarization, we’re more interested in how the rich get rich. There are many strategies. A number are far from new, but have been pursued much more vigorously and with much more spectacular results in an era when extraordinary liquidity is readily available due to low volatility and low perceived risks. We've identified 11 different strategies that have stood the test of time.

Before examining each, however, we must point out that luck is often paramount, regardless of how sound or flawed the game plan. Being in the right place at the right time has made fortunes for idiots. Think of the dot-com speculator who only sold out in late 1999 because he was buying a McMansion for his new wife, and that house then doubled in value over the next five years.

Conversely, "the best laid schemes o' Mice an' Men, Gang aft agley, An’ lea’e us nought but grief an’ pain, For promis’d joy!" as Robert Burns put it. Bad luck can turn a surefire strategy into a disaster. Elisha Gray had the misfortune to arrive at the U. S. Patent Office to patent the telephone a mere hour after Alexander Graham Bell.

Furthermore, none of these strategies are surefire. As we’ll discuss, all of them have pitfalls, sometimes because they are so successful that they invite their own demise.

1. Government subsidies

Perhaps the most time-honored and surest way to make big money is the old fashioned way — skill, brains, luck, clairvoyance, hard work — and so much government support you can’t miss. Benefiting directly from direct government spending is obvious. What’s more subtle and therefore more interesting are the vast government subsidies.
