How to get more traffic, money with Social Spark

What's the best way for your blog to get traffic or making money when the maximum amount of people visiting your blog is only 100?

There are so many hundreds and thousands of blogs - no wait - millions of them - getting only a few people visiting their blog - only to find that they never convert to cash - or do something meaningful like subscribing, clicking on ads - or showing any particular point of interest in their blog!

That is the most frustrating experience 99% of all bloggers go through - so do not go entirely miserable on having this breakdown experience or thought.

One clever solution (or as they always say you must crawl before you walk or run) is Social Spark.




Before you get to build an authority blog and branding yourself in your niche with it - find the aspiration to take on tasks in gain for getting money first.

One of the reasons most bloggers always throw in the towel is because they see nothing happening concerning succeeding with a money stream. The logical thing to do to keep your online blogging endeavors alive is by doing things to earn money online first - to convince yourself in the first place that there indeed is money online to earn.

Social Spark, without further due, is one way to earn a few crawlable and walkable money.

How, how and how?

  • Firstly (this is probably going to put a little finally smile on your face) this is a way to make better bucks that you would have had with Google Adsense.
  • Secondly, while you fail earning $15, $30 or a huge $100 per month with Adsense (as Adsense requires a very good stream of traffic to convert some blog visitors into clicking and so earn cash); Social Spark don't require of your blog to have a particular amount of people visiting it.You can literally get five visits per day to you blog right now, today - and you are able to make a $10 or more with Social Spark.

How?

For those having less than fifty posts on their blog and haven't achieved the blessing of decent blog traffic, yet - Social Spark sparks your blog by enabling you to gain blog content with sponsored content.

In essence, the blog marketing site brings a simple solution to those bloggers finding it hard to make cash and those bloggers who are finding it hard to get enough blog traffic.
In other words, you get those bloggers who want to earn money in the short not too distant future. They are prepared to write blog posts.

On the other side you have the blog masters that's trying to improve every aspect of their blogging optimization - and also the helping hand of getting more blog content for the gain of seeing more blog traffic.

In reality your blog self don't gain any better traffic when you are the one blogging for the money on Social Spark.

To not confusing you - it's still the old but very effective way to make a few bucks: writing for cash!
In stead of going through all the extremely formal complicated and fussy processes when trying to make a buck with Constant content and other article sites - writing posts for other bloggers via Social Spark acting as a middle man, virtually all your posts you'll be writing will be excepted.

The bad part

The bad part about making money with Social Spark is this: It takes a bit extremely long before you really see that money into your Paypal account.

Yep. That's the irony.

  • It's easy signing up with Social Spark and start off by availing yourself to write posts for other bloggers. You'll get the go ahead from the blogger, the blogger will pay you (with points) - and will publish the post you wrote once that's settled. Concerning that points (you're paid with a points system in Social Spark whereby 10 points equals 10 cents and 100 points $1); you'll only see the actual points that was paid to you by a particular blogger - after 30 days he/she published the post you sold.
  • Point #2 - You can only cash out once you reach a threshold of $50 into your Paypal.

So, in a nutshell, you will only make $50 into your Paypal once you have earned 5000 points, which (the points) on it's own can only reflect after 30 days each time the blogger(s) you sell your post(s) to publish them - a long process to combat Spam and fraud.

Final Verdict:

You can make that walkable income of $1000 per month with Social Spark rather than just the crawl-able cash of $100.

However, even if you can succeed in getting different bloggers publishing your posts you sold to them in one day and you earn 5000 points in that one day - you will still only cash out over 30 days when your points reflect in your account.




The reward though, if you can earn 5000 points every day (writing 5-10 posts and successfully getting it published (and it becomes live on the internet) by the person(s)buying) - you can make $50 per day from Social Spark. Cashing out $50 per day into your Paypal account, that on it's own turn translates into $1500 for the month.

Just like with everything though, there is a dear price to pay. By the measurement of writing 5 posts per day for $50, translates to 150 posts you would have needed to come up with. That may also have been a good amount of blog posts for your own blog, earning residual income over time . . .

Going through the trouble, I guess, would all depend on yourself. I guess, once again its as they say: you need to crawl before you can walk.

To your online successes.

Make abundant money with affiliate marketing

Apart from making money through blogging, affiliate marketing is one of the most common ways to make staggering amounts of profits from the internet and one of the easiest sources to get money from.

Many internet dwellers, at least 70% of them, must have read some article about internet marketing before – or most likely – came off of an affiliate product itself. Offering the moon and the stars. (Or at least most of them do). People always tend to get the “too good to be true” feeling from this – and immediately leave – distrusting any possible opportunity it might have had to realize.




Making money from affiliate sales, apart from the uncertainty of the reputation of individual affiliate products, is one market affluent that shouldn't quite be underestimated when it comes to wealth potential. There are literally hundreds of millions of dollars flowing through the internet – just from sales dedicated to the affiliate marketing niche alone.
What is affiliate marketing – and how can you get your hands on those cash?

The chances that you'd already know what affiliate marketing is, even though you'd think you don't know, is more than 50%. The concept of affiliate marketing is nothing new; it has just been revolutionized online. In its most simple form: it's when you market/promote someone else's products and as a payment/reward you get a certain amount from the sold item(s).

So it's just like selling Avon products or as another example, selling health products.  The only revolutionized difference from Avon products which are physical products is that affiliate products are virtual. This changes everything. It changes the world. With promoting, distributing and doing word-of-mouth marketing with example Avon products, plus keeping those physical goods at your home, you'll need to go through the trouble meeting and explaining to dozens of people face to face, one by one about the product(s). You'll need to order those products and probably pay for courier or postage costs. Going through quite a lot for just a tiny little commission of 10% or sometimes a maybe 25%. With becoming an affiliate, marketing virtual products, you'll note that almost everywhere you'll look you'd be offered a 50%-75% share of the money.
But let me just share with you something which is most probably the interesting part of affiliate marketing: Whatever you're doing, you actually DON'T sell anything.

One thing, in particular, I have noted, is that some dubious bloggers and article writers tend to make public that by becoming an affiliate or affiliate marketer, you are a “seller”. This is misleading – as you aren't selling anything. You have no payments to process, no place to store whatever needs to be downloaded – in fact at first you don't even have the website to create the sales copy for it. When you're an affiliate marketer and reach your possible customers via an article through an article directory or on a web 2.0 interface such as hubpages, or a blog – you are merely going to redirect them to the page where that specific product will be situated. That is not selling. That's merely recommending something to someone - in detail. Assisting that person with something he/she, most likely, would have been interested in buying and made a search on Google to see whether there are a few people who have been using it or someone who could tell him generally more about the product.

Providing the consumer with information other than that what he/she would have been getting from the sales page. If you can create an insightful atmosphere through your words, advice and recommendations of your products, the person reading it would feel as if he'd want to sit down on his couch and seriously take into account what you have to say there. On the other hand, force the product to your potential customer – and he'll totally ignore you.

Where to get Affiliate products from

The biggest role players on the internet in the field of affiliate marketing is big names such as Amazon, Clickbank, Commission Junction and even Ebay. They even have 10,000’s of different products for you to choose from. However, there are thousands of other affiliate networks that simply must be taken advantage of, as well.

The first thing you should be thinking about upon deciding which company or individual's product to start promoting is finding out when exactly you'd be getting paid and through which way. The basic cash-out form is via check or Paypal. In the case that you live in a non-Paypal country (where you can't link your local bank account with your Paypal account for withdrawals) – you're going to be forced to get your money through check. This will result in you eventually receiving your money 6-10 weeks after you have actually earned it. (Depending on where you live + the bank clearance time after you received your check.)

Or you could also look for affiliate networks that will pay you through other payment forms such as Payza or 2Checkout – something that will still be faster than a check and a payment system that is supportive in the country you live in.

Believe me. When you'd be receiving your money two months after the time you earned it – it will impact your appetite for affiliate marketing and will kill your desire and spirit to continue.
How to promote affiliate products

I have seen lots of affiliates that, recklessly, promote their products in several of forms. Some of it being at such very eerie places – I don't even want to mention it. It's also not such a good idea to post ads in free classified directories. It's free and it's easy – but there's really not anything rewarding about any of the two. I'll give you two good reasons why to not do this: You're wasting your time posting ads. So many ads are continuously being placed by thousands of people, causing that your ad will immediately drop to the 10th, 50th or even 100th place – to the bottom of the list. It's unnecessary to mention that no-one will see your ad. Number two, is that by merely posting ads – you aren't providing any real quality of information about the product you promote – and you thus nullify your chances at someone buying your product(s).

Some affiliate would even go as far and bet their money on Google Adwords. If you don't know what Google Adwords is: It's a way to get immediate people to wherever you want them to go – but this comes at a cost. A cost of a per-click basis. By using Adwords, you will need to pay for every person that will be visiting your  product's page a certain amount. By experience – this will be around $1 per click. It means that you would need to pay $100 for getting about 100 people to see your products . . . If you don't know anything about Google Adwords – you're going to cry like a baby as Google will spare you no cent all the while, in most cases, be left with nothing.

There are thousands upon thousands of affiliates who are making use of article directories – writing very informative and triggering articles. The reason they do this is because they utilize keywords at their full advantage at gaining as much people to read their article(s) as possible. Article Directories usually rank very high in Google (or at least those with a good Google Pagerank). By combining research about what people type into Google and writing about exactly that – affiliates thus succeeds at gaining sales this way.

Things to note for when also writing articles:

Ezine Articles is known for being the premier article directory online – however don't support affiliate links at all. I advise you thus to make sure that when following this way to get people to see your products – to check for article directories that do support your links.



How to increase your chances to make affiliate sales?

There are numerous small things that you could implement to improve the chances at getting a bigger chance at making sales, by way of a bigger response percentage. To all the people visiting your product pages.

However, the most important thing will obviously be the way in how you will approach the person who will be reading your presentation about the product – and the way it will be presented is going to be seriously important. It could determine whether that person would be intrigued, would stay longer, even click through on your links to your product – or would just be leaving the soonest he had landed on you recommendation of the product. Whatever that would be.

Utilize web 2.0 websites in conjunction to your article marketing practices.

This is one of the biggest things that will impact a sale. Are you only going to have an article? With no picture and stuff to enchant your visitors? With web 2.0 websites such as Hubpages you could really go a long way in preparing yourself exactly how the page is going to look what your potential customer is going to look at. Squidoo does seem to be the most popular when it comes to providing more informative content, called lenses. Thus, if you don't have a blog or a website to do your own things – just use Squidoo. You could also make money (although very small amounts) with Hubpages and Squidoo – but then again, this post is nothing about it.

Also upon deciding exactly which product to choose, choose logically. Choose something that isn't so widely marketed by others – but something that do seem to yourself as a decent product that is without fluff. And then – also very important – the price. Would you be thinking about getting that $100 product and get the 75% commission – that will easily give you a $75? Think logically. Choose a more reasonable amount of product to buy – people don't have money to just throw around. Something between $20-$30 would do just fine – and $15 would trigger a suspicion about whether it's that cheap.

Upon deciding to become an affiliate or not – should be yours and no-one's decision but your own. So if you think that affiliate marketing is really something that is just over hyped and that one can't really make $3,000 or more with it – thanks for making more space for others that think different.

To your success.

To be or not to be an affiliate marketer?

Have you ever noticed the glittery websites of internet marketers and the way they talk their "sales talk"? The brand new cars they are posing with . . . that suspiciously let's you wonder: Are all these things so very real? And why the heck are these people so "desperate" to get your sale if they are these millionaires???

 Don't be fooled by TOO GOOD affiliate marketers

It's said that affiliate marketing is one of the greatest ways to make money off the internet – one of the most trusted and sustainable sources.
The most important question rather: How often do you earn your commissions with traditional affiliate marketing programs?

There is no doubt about the fact that affiliate programs are of the best ways to generate a good amount of money as well as one of the most ideal supplemental ways to your money bag. However, if we take a look at fast and immediate or quick money – then affiliate programs simply won't work.
Apart from that it's not quick; it does not come that easy either. Marketing affiliate programs do require that you have knowledge about internet marketing. And if one look at the fact that 97% of all internet marketers online fail up close, trying to consider affiliate marketing and you need money urgently, as in very quick, affiliate marketing is just not going to do the “getting quick money trick”.

As I am saying, affiliate marketing, is ultimately one of the best ways to make decent money online. There are thousands of internet marketers that generate $1000 daily with it and even more. If one would take a look at Clickbank.com, you can instantly find 1000’s of products there, market them for free, and make a commission from it – as much as 75%.
That would really mean that if you sell a $100 affiliate program, that you get the $75, while the owner of the program walks away with just $25.

Many people will with a quick surprise think about: “What If I can sell at least 10 of these affiliate programs per day? Wouldn't I be able to make $750 of money daily?!”

Exciting as it may sound – it's just not that simple.

 To Pull out lots of money from a bag - simple?



If you think about factors such as: You are an internet newbie, or that you know that you are not good at marketing anything . . . or you don't even know the internet that well (or especially don't know the product you're selling). What's the chance that you will get a $100 program sold to ten people per day – or even one of them?

If we really start thinking serious, we take into account always that 97% of all online marketers fail, and we should ask ourselves why.

We even need to go further and consider whether trying to make money with affiliate programs would be the best option for you if you're thinking about making money quick with specifically taking a deeper look at the actual response rate you will get with an expensive $100 program.

Even more importantly, internet spending have changed steeply with the world recession, if we take a look at the percentage of people who mainly uses their credit cards to buy online, but who are now looking away from using their credit cards period. Some are highly in debt, while some have even lost their cards.

Golden eggs CANNOT be laid overnight


This is the sole reason exactly why intermediate internet marketers experience an average response rate of 0.01% to 0.5%. That means, if you have started to manage to learn the basic skills of marketing online, you should be able to start getting at least 1000 people to your money making affiliate program daily.

You make the calculations. From the 1000 people seeing your marketed program, only 1-5 will buy the product through you. But what I can say from experience is that a $100 program will even have a much lesser response rate at the moment. Every $10 to people is money they think about, when spending. I believe $100 are 10 $10. This means that people will consider it 10 times over to buy a $100 money program.

In simple detail what I am saying, is that even if you do get 1000 people looking at your affiliate marketed program per day, you will likely get either 1 response, 2 if you are really lucky, but none at most times.

Lastly, in what sense do affiliate programs generate any quick money, if affiliate commissions are paid out only twice monthly – and to worsen things even further – paid by check?
