Updating Your Blog?

Do you have a blog which you expect to earn money off of it?  Or even just to get traffic to it? Well…are you updating your blog consistently?  Consistency is the keyword, keeping you blog freshly updated will give you the benefits of ranking up top in Google and drive traffic to your website.

When blogging you need to blog unique content.  If you just copy and paste random content in to your blog or even any website, you are just setting yourself off for failure.  When writing content, make sure you write about interesting things.  Even though the nature, birds and the random animals appeal to be interesting, you should write about something thats not too obvious.

Unique content and consistently updating your blog combined with quality backlinks should give you the power to over rank the other competitors by far on Google.  Good luck and hope you find the success you are looking for on your web career!

How I started making money online

Making money online is a tough thing to do if you are a beginner.  Many people just jump right into the business and believe they’re going to be rich overnight.
I got something to say about that now; it’s not going to happen.  If you do your homework and start off right, you will find the real success to online income.

Back in the day, I had no clue about making money from websites.  Had no absolute idea.  I was a kid, around when I was 14, I started making my first websites.
Back then I used free services, like Tripod, Somee ect.  that’s how I started learning Html and afterwards ASP.  In 2005, I started a website, it was a community website
which had a lot of random but good quality content.  A lot of good and unique articles, present day news, information on many things, a lot categorized pictures ect.

This website of mine started getting some visitors, I promoted it on other websites, directory listing, built backlinks ect. It’s daily trend
 ranged between 600 uniques a day.  I added a forum and a membership mode to the website.  I was getting anywhere from
15-30 members a day.  My forum got very active, the site became automatic, people were promoting my website in other forums, they were sending content to the website
and so much more.

This website was everything for me, single domain, I slept with it, woke up with it.  The visitor number started averaging around 2-3k daily.  Then I got introduced to
Google AdSense.  My friend told me about it and told me I was wasting my tiome on the website because I wasn’t getting any profit off of it.  I remembering adding a
single banner to my content.  Made about $1000 the first month!  I wish I kept the importance of that website.  Later on I added more websites to my list.

I created about 5 more websites, started doing some link exchanges, directory listings, and buying links from well ranked websites.  I started to loose traffic from my main
website which rapidly affected my income from it.  My 5 new websites did not go far.  Now I was only making about 150-250$ every month from all 6 websites combined.
Failure was harsh.

Later on, I sold my good money making website for really cheap, some of the 5 new websites expired, some I sold to other people.  I was upset, I wanted to start over clear
and fresh.  So I Started a website about doing what I lvoe to do.  Making websites that is.  It got reputable within the first couple months but nowhere near what I wanted it to be.
Made any random amount from $2-$10 daily.  It was nothing. Feeling the failure once again, I got a Full Time job and sold the website.  1 year later, I got tired of my full time job
and quit, having nothing to do at home until a new job, I started a new website.  It has not gotten far so far after 1 year, but I haven’t had a lot of time to work on it.

Now, I’m working full time at a job which has nothing to do with what I originally wanted to do, lost a lot of knowledge and oppurtunities to become a skilled webmaster.
Part time, I am making about $20 from my website daily, which adds up to 500-600$ monthly,  It helps pay the bills but nothing too major.

The overall point of me sharing my story is that; you should not lose your cencentration on your website, do your site with passion and quality content.  Don’t go random
opening 5 other websites setting yourself out to fail.  Monitize your website, built backlinks, share your links on forums, add it to directory listing ect.
Don’t let the “I’m gonna be rich” hype fail you.

Drop Down Menu

Drop down menus are usually used when you have a large content website but yet, little space to fit everything into.  Below are the codes which you will need to place a drop-down menu onto your website. 

First of all, you will need to put this code on the <head> section of your website’s source:

<script language=”javascript” type=”text/javascript”>
<!–
function menu_goto( menuform )
{
    
    var baseurl = “http://www.put-your-domain-name-here.com” ;
    selecteditem = menuform.newurl.selectedIndex ;
    newurl = menuform.newurl.options[ selecteditem ].value ;
    if (newurl.length != 0) {
      location.href = baseurl + newurl ;
    }
}
//–>
</script>

After this code places in your websites source, now you can add the actual menu code to your website WHERE you want the menu to appear.  The code is as it follows:

<form action=”dummyvalue”>
<select name=”newurl” onchange=”menu_goto(this.form)”>
<option value=”" selected=”selected”>—– Select A Page —–</option>
<option value=”/index.html”>Home</option>
<option value=”/feedback.html”>Feedback</option>
<option value=”/links.html”>Related Links</option>
</select>
</form>

Enjoy the use of this code!

What are Breadcrumbs?

You might be surprised when you hear the term “Breadcrumbs” when building websites.  This is very common on popular CMS such as WordPress.  It obviously has nothing to do with cooking.

Breadcrumbs are a type of navigation.  It makes it easier for the visitor to navigate through a website, usually displayed like this:  Home > Category > Sub Category > Story.

This also makes it easy for Search Engines to crawl more of your website.  You users can easily keep track of where they are at in your website.
