Let The Average People Profit - We make up most of the population don't we? !

I think I can safely say that the majority of people in the world right now are doing everything they can to generate income. In countries such as the USA and Canada, there used to be a thriving middle class. People could afford most conveniences and led a fair and stable life. Times and global economic meltdown have changed that. The middle class (or 98%) of the population has been struggling to keep their houses, pay their bills and feed their families. The 2% of the population that flourishes, now are making more money then ever. For instance, I heard that the CEO's of some of Canada's businesses in communications (Cable TV, Telephone and Internet) are making 23 MILLION dollars a year as a salary. Wow...and they pay their employees just a little over minimum wage. Is it any wonder that the average person can barely afford to pay the cost of living?

I am sick of it. It is time that the average person can make money from the money we generate by using these services. Today I got a comment on one of my other posts from a lady that said to she had a way to make money and to click her blog page and find the link. I thought it was another money system scam link but out of curiosity I checked it out. I read through it and was stunned at how simple a concept it is. So I did publish her comment and I am giving my readers the opportunity to check it out as well. You do not pay anything into it, nor do you ask others to pay into it, so it is not a pyramid or MLM scheme. In these pyramid and mlm scams, a person pays into a program, gets people to sign up and then the money they put in is filtered down.

Although it does have the filter down aspect in it, they do not ask for money. If they are not asking for money, they are not filtering down money and it is not a pyramid scam. (NOTE, if they did ever require you to PAY INTO IT in the future, then that is a totally different ballgame) Note on their site they say they will never ask for payment in the future. By definition no money being invested and nothing being purchased or sold does not equal a scam. At worst the expectation that the site will fly and profit may be over zealous. So why are there reviews that say it is a scam?

The main reason for all the suspicion in these "reviews" is that the business address and registered owner seem to be located in different states. The registered business in Oregon has an agent Cathy Halverson listed as the owner for tax purposes. She is also an agent for many, many other businesses. This in itself is not that unusual. They do have a business office in Las Vegas, Nevada that has actual people attending it (which the scam reviewers do not state). The actual structure of directors and key members have not yet been determined. Since the clarity of the actual structure of the business is still to be determined, people are obviously raising concerns. Everyone wants to have a clear structure of a business and the people involved in it. Without that clarity, there is concern. That is valid, but calling it a scam before it has even launched is not valid.

The off shoot of this matter is that when people have suspicions, will advertisers actually use the site? Will there be profits to share with users? That remains unknown. That doesn't make it the site or it's business model a scam, it does mean that users must realize that signing up isn't going to get you income if there is no income to share. It took Google a lot of years to make money, Wazzub may be an up and coming search engine or it may fall flat on it's face. We can't know what the future is until it happens. I do feel that caution on expectations is important but I don't believe that Wazzub is a scam. At worst, it may be misleading in the event it doesn't make profits. At this point, there are not enough facts to paint it black or to give it a glowing recommendation.


Wazzub may just be what it says. A profit sharing search engine pre launch. Since I am not losing any money or investing any money, and no one else is investing any money or losing any money, there is nothing to lose.  At worst, the launch flat-lines and there is no profit for anyone to get paid from. Big deal, we still haven't lost anything but the hope of making money on it.  So, when you sign up, just keep that in mind.  You might not make any money at all.

Sometimes random things occur that can change our lives. This might be an innovative opportunity that can do the same.  It costs nothing and shares its (future) profits. When you sign up and verify your email, you will get your own reference number to send to anyone you want and hopefully it will grow to where you can start sharing in profits (if there are any) in the future. To me it is a shot that at worst, won't hit the target and at best will provide an opportunity to make some money.

Your Blog: A launch Pad For Making Money

Your Blog: A launch Pad For Making Money

One of the simplest and most overlooked way to launch products is through a blog. It is the most cost effective and simply to set up. Anybody who intends to make money from home through the internet must have a strategy to succeed. A blog can be the smartest first step you take to begin your marketing strategy. It is simple and free to set up and can easily be optimized for traffic.

Blogs are a powerful launch pad for making online income. Unfortunately few people starting out at home income earning realize the power of blogging. Typically what happens is this: a person sees a product they want to sell or buys into an affiliate website and they think that it will run itself. This is partially because most affiliate sites claim to provide easy income or say the site is auto-run and no skill is required to start. The person buying it only realizes later that it does indeed take skill to make money on selling the product to other people. This is because any affiliate site or product site must get visitors. If no one sees your product or site, you will not make a dime. Getting traffic to affiliate sites can be a costly venture.

This is why just having an affiliate site without a blog to launch it is costly. The affiliate site you buy is called a mirror site. Mirror sites are automated and it is limited in terms of optimizing. You can't add any features for seo like meta tags, rss feeds, or make any html changes. Your options for an affiliate site marketing strategy alone are:

Adding the site to classified ad sites.
Buying ad words.
Buying promotional traffic.

What you can't do with your affiliate site is the main reason for failure. You can't add a rss feed. You can't add meta tags. You can't add your site to most high ranking directories. You can't add content to your site.

Unless you have money to spend on advertising your site your only free promotional option is through free classified ad sites. Obviously, this is a limited venture. You end up feeling very disappointed, ripped off and may spend a lot of cash just trying to get your product or site launched.

Create Your Own Money Making Blog or Make Your Current Blog Work For You!

A blog launch pad can change that. Let's look at all the ways you can effectively get traffic and optimize your blog.

You place all your product links or affiliate site links on your blog easily.
You can add your own meta tags for search engine optimization.
You can add your blog to endless directories to get traffic going.
You can write articles and place them with resource links to your blog.
You can add your blog to all the search engines manually.
You can have multiple products on your blog to maximize income.
There are many link to other sites that are relevant to your blog.


Blogs offer an opportunity to create highly relevant content and get traffic. The more targeted people that see it, the better your chance at making income. A blog can be your launch pad for a mirror site or any product, multiple products you want to make money on. You can optimize your blog very effectively in many proven ways that you can't with a mirror site or a simple product.

How To Put Meta Tags into the New Template on Blogspot

Those of you who follow my blog may notice the big change in appearance! I finally switched over from classic template to the new template. It wasn't an easy choice. I had all my meta tags and html working great in the classic template and was terrified to lose all the work. I didn't know if the search engines would find me again! I did it anyway and got a crash course in putting in new meta tags. So, if you switched over to the new blogger template and need help with your meta tags or keep getting error messages for meta tags you try to add, this one's for you! It is also for those of you who don't know how to put in meta tags and have never done it.


Proper meta tags are very important and need to be placed on your blog. They help search engines that crawl your site have information. The first thing you need to do is to find the most used "keywords" on your blog. These are words used frequently in your blog, not included words like I, it, and, or but. Let's do an example for a blog that is about fashion:

First, find your important keywords for your keyword meta tag and list them:

keywords: buy,clothes,women,fashion,store,spend,deals,best,beautiful.

Use these words seperated by a comma and no spaces. Using a combination of keywords is even better.
Example:

Keywords: buy-womens-clothes,fashion-store-best-deals,beautiful-clothes,spend-less,buy,clothes,fashion

Now pick a description of your blog. A description will be used in the "description meta tag". It is two or three sentences that use your first two most important keywords in all the sentences.

Description Buy womens clothes from the store with the best deals,our blog shows women beautiful fashion choices online.

Now you want to make your meta tags.

The New Blogger (Not Classic Template) already has your title meta tag done so you just need these:

NOTE: In order to be able for this post to be accepted, I have had to put a space in the closing symbol. When you do it, do not put spaces in the opening or closing symbol. ie: < or ' / > should not have spaces in between them and/or words.


Description meta tag:


< meta content='this is where you put your blog description' name='description' / >


  • It is very important you use ' not "
  • meta tag is in small letters not capital like this: Meta Tag
  • It is very important to enclose the end word with '/ >

*If any of these points are missing, it will not work.

Keyword meta tag:


< meta content='this is where you put your keywords' name='keywords' / >



  • Use dashes in between phrases ie: plus-size-store,deals,sales,designers,best-deals-online
  • Use commas in between each single word or after each phrase. The last word before the ' needs no comma after it.
  • No spaces are used between commas

If you want search engines to follow your blog use these meta tags at the end. They can be copied as written for any blog:

Where you place your meta tags is vital to it working.
First go to the DESIGN tab on top menu.
Then click the EDIT HTML.

Don't worry if you mess it up. You can preview your changes before you save them.

If your blog shows up in the preview, you did it right! Click SAVE. If you get an error message, click CANCEL. You have to look carefully for all the points that you may have typed in wrong.

You will place your description meta tag right after the tite tag that is already in the html. The title tag will look exactly like this (except for spaces I have to add to post this)

< title > < data:blog.pageTitle/ > < /title>


After you place your description meta tag it should look like this (except for the spaces on enclosures).

< title > < data:blog.pageTitle/ > < /title>< meta content='this is where you put your blog description' name='description' / >

You will put your keyword tag right after the description tag:

< title > < data:blog.pageTitle/ > < /title>< meta content='this is where you put your blog description' name='description' / >< meta content='this is where you put your keywords' name='keywords' / >


If you want search engines to follow your blog use these meta tags at the end. 


< meta name='robots' content='Index, Follow' / >

< meta name='revisit-after' content='7 days' / >

The final look will be:



< title > < data:blog.pageTitle/ > < /title>< meta content='this is where you put your blog description' name='description' / >< meta content='this is where you put your keywords' name='keywords' / >
< meta name='robots' content='Index, Follow' / >

< meta name='revisit-after' content='7 days' / >


You are done! Now search engines can find out all the information that is key to your blog.  Good luck and if you need extra help let me know. I will see if I can find where you went wrong.
