SEO Guide - Part 17
Part 17 - How to leverage your higher traffic flow for higher profits
After you have followed the steps in this guide and attained a high ranking in the search engines, you will soon have a large amount of traffic flow to your site. Now is the time to sell, sell, sell!
But the products and services that you offer on your website aren't the only avenues to profit available to you. Your website traffic itself can be an excellent source of revenue. You can use your site to:
·
Sell banner or text ads to other businesses.
·
Sell advertising in a newsletter or Ezine.
·
Earn commissions through affiliate links and banners.
An excellent way to maximize the cash earnings from your website is to sign up with Fastclick. They have lots of options for displaying high-paying ads on your site, including leaderboards, banners, popunders, and several other types of ads.
And best of all, Fastclick pays you, the publisher, 65% of the fees paid by the advertisers. You can't lose with this one!
A new advertising vehicle that works very well for sites with lots of content is Google Adsense. All you have to do is apply for an Adsense account with Google.
They'll review your site, and if accepted, you just add a short snippet of code (provided by Google) to your site where you want the ads to appear.
Google will then spider your page(s) and start serving relevant ads in short order. No keywords to fool with! All you do is add the code to your pages and Google does the rest.
Then when a visitor comes to your site, she'll see the Google ads. If she clicks on one, you'll get a commission. It's really that simple!
If you sign up with Adsense, be sure to read the directions, user agreement, and FAQs carefully so that you can be sure that you're in compliance with their rules. You can even use Fastclick popunders in conjunction with Google AdSense to double your earnings potential!
I'm sure there are many other ways to earn money through your website's traffic. Just use your imagination and Google to find them!
