Make Money With Blogging

Posted on May 18, 2012 by

Article by Jay V

Everyone should have a blog, whether for personal use or business. Blogging is so easy and as such has become a popular method for making money online and if you do it right you can easily make 00 per month with blogging.In fact, there are hundreds of people who have personal blogs that don?t realize that they can make money with their blogs. Imagine how much money they are letting slip away by not monetizing their blogs!Blogs can be monetized by placing Google Adsense ads on your blog so that you earn an amount every time someone clicks on an ad. Also you can promote affiliate products on your blog or you might have your own product that you can use your blog to promote. You don?t even have to stick with just one monetization method; you can combine them and increase your income potential.How to Create a Blog to Make MoneyThe first thing you need to do is decide what niche you are going to create a blog about. There are two ways that you can do this: you can do a lot of research to find a niche that is in high demand and in which the products sell well, or you can just select a niche that you are passionate about. Both of these methods have their advantages. The method of doing research to find a good niche will increase the chance of having good converting products that people are looking for. Choosing a niche that you are passionate about has the advantage of being easier to write content for your blog and staying motivated with that blog.Regardless of whether you choose the research method or the passionate method, with both you will need to do some keyword research to find a good keyword phrase that has enough searches each month to be profitable. You will want to find one main keyword that your blog will be based around, as well as several long tail keywords that you can also create content around. This way you are targeting more than one keyword phrase which will increase your traffic and potential customers.Next you will need to have a look and see if there are any products that you can promote in that niche and you can do that by visiting Clickbank, Commission Junction, Amazon and other affiliate programs.Another way to find if there are any affiliate programs relating to your niche is by searching for them in Google In the Google search box just type in your niche, in quotes, followed by +affiliate. For example, if you are looking at the weight loss niche you would search for

New Nurture Virtual Book Tour for author Feather Stone. Visit the blogs and websites featuring Feather and her novel “The Guardian’s Wildchild”, until May 18th, 2012 at http://bit.ly/K24HzM.

About the book, “The Guardian’s Wildchild”

Caught in a reckless attempt to stop Dark forces, Sidney Davenport, a young, rule breaking, spirited member of the secret paranormal community of Guardians, finds herself imprisoned on a naval ship and slated for execution. Her struggle with the unfamiliar emotions of fear and anger becomes even more complicated when she can no longer fight her attraction to the very man who has orders to perform her execution.

Captain Sam Waterhouse, a meticulous naval captain who’s suspected of treason, teeters on a precipice between Darkness and Light. When he receives an unusual prisoner, a paranormal journey begins to unravel his disciplined life. All the while, humanity is unknowingly at great risk when two Dark forces team up to acquire control of an elusive power. Sidney and Sam attempt to quiet their powerful feelings for each other, only to discover they can save each other, and in doing so, they might even save the world.

Through stunning imagery, an intricate and adventurous plot, and a strong cast of characters, Feather Stone gives readers a fascinating glimpse into the future—a future that is chilling, yet full of hope http://featherstoneauthor.com/.

About the author, Feather Stone

As a Canadian, Feather Stone was allowed the freedom to explore a kaleidoscope of infinite ways of being human. The only restrictions imposed by her parents were that racism was not acceptable and deliberately causing suffering to any other being or creature for any reason was not tolerated. Upon meeting her spirit guide when she was a child, Feather’s life became a journey of experiencing the paranormal. Through her practice of meditation, Reiki, and study of Shamanism, she’s been able to shift to dimensions that defy description.

On February 15, 2002, Feather was honoured to receive the Exemplary Service Medal from Lieutenant Governor Lois Hole (representative of HRH Queen Elizabeth II) for her service as a paramedic with Edmonton’s Emergency Response Department. She and her husband are now enjoying retirement and loving their sheltie, Jasper, and two cats, Smokey and Leo.

Her motto? Change your thinking, change your life.

Leading Industry Analyst Firm Says Tableau Software, at 86 Percent Growth, is Fastest Growing Business Intelligence Vendor Among Top Vendors










Seattle, WA (PRWEB) May 15, 2012

Tableau Software, a global leader in rapid-fire business intelligence (BI) software, today announced that Gartner has ranked the company as the fastest growing BI vendor among the top 20 firms represented in its Market Share Analysis: Business Intelligence, Analytics and Performance Management, Worldwide, 2011*. Gartner’s assessments show that while the BI market was the second-fastest growing software segment that Gartner tracks, coming in at 16.4 percent growth 2011 over 2010, Tableau’s revenue increased by more than 86 percent.

These findings come on the heels of the Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Business Intelligence Platforms** report, which positioned Tableau as a “challenger” based on its ability to execute and completeness of vision. Tableau has made the full Magic Quadrant report available at no charge for a limited time at http://www.tableausoftware.com/gartner-2012.

“Tableau’s remarkable growth is a symbol of one of the most important trends in the industry: the consumerization of enterprise technology,” said Christian Chabot, CEO and co-founder of Tableau Software.”We are ushering in a golden era of fast, easy, visual analytics for everyone. It’s a sea change in business analytics.”

Tableau customer AOL has been using the software for the last several years of its rapid growth. “We chose Tableau because it had a heavy emphasis on data visualization, could plug into any sort of dataset, was really easy to use and ultimately could deliver self-service BI to our clients,” said Ricardo Rivera, senior technology manager at AOL. “As Tableau has achieved its quick growth, we’ve been able to grow with it – transforming ourselves from a push model when it came to reports to a pull model where people are in charge of what data they need, in real-time when they need it.”

“Tableau helps its customers leverage their investments with lightning fast connectivity to Teradata’s world-class data warehousing and analytic solutions in a relevant and intuitive way for the enterprise,” said Scott Collins, vice president of Teradata Partnerships and Alliance Marketing, a Tableau partner. “It’s the ability to reveal patterns, outliers and insights through detailed data that has added enormous value and helped Tableau grow so quickly among our customers.”

Tableau is designed for people to rapidly analyze data of any format or size. It brings business dashboards, fast analytics and data visualization to organizations of all sizes. Tableau Desktop lets people create interactive reports, dashboards and visualizations using an easy drag and drop interface. Tableau Server provides a complete web-based business intelligence solution for distribution, sharing and collaborating.

Hear It Direct Brings Real Estate Professionals Face to Face With Consumer Needs

Posted on May 13, 2012 by

Hear It Direct Brings Real Estate Professionals Face to Face With Consumer Needs











Hear it Direct


Dallas/Plano, TX (PRWEB) May 13, 2012

Real estate professionals across the country are gearing up to listen to those who matter most in their industry – the people who want to buy and sell homes – at a unique, tell all forum, Hear It Direct in Dallas, Texas on May 21st. Unlike many other real estate professional workshops which focus on marketing, motivation and technology from leading industry speakers, Hear It Direct is designed to create the consumer as the keynote. Featuring panels of real home buyers and home sellers from throughout the United States, Hear It Direct aims to get to the crux of client needs – through open, unfiltered discussion – and discover how to really focus and best attend to the needs of consumers in today’s housing market. Hear It Direct’s concept reshapes the real estate business, creating a consumer centric, consumer driven approach to home buying and selling.

Creating a new view for agents is the goal and listening to consumer comments such as “I was more interested in my agent creating a brand for me NOT what their brand was” or “… If I get a response back, the agent often doesn’t know any more about the house than what I can find out myself” provide a true look at what needs improvement in the real estate industry. Agents and market forecasters can gain insight and learn how to create value and trust through attending this groundbreaking one-day experience. Through the use of technology and real people, attendees will actually hear and see hands-on ways to make a difference in their own business – to launch a path towards success through “hearing it direct.” Attendees will have the opportunity to not only listen and absorb, but also to ask questions in participatory discussion!

South Carolina Keller Williams agent J. Michael Manley found a new depth and understanding when he attended a Hear It Direct Conference sharing on his blog, “This wasn’t your typical real estate conference. Hear It Direct brought in consumers to tell us what they thought about our industry and the processes of buying and selling homes from the other side of the table. Listening to the panels it started to become clear that the younger people on the panel really had a mindset that is drastically different from what we have seen in past years.” He has taken what he learned and is using new ideas to gain trust and show more respect for his clients’ needs.

Developed by real estate leaders Sue Adler and Robert Hahn, Hear It Direct, was created to share a Consumer-Driven Real Estate Model and enhance the industry as a whole. Hear It Direct, Texas is the second in a series of events targeting throughout the United States dedicated to delivering the message of what real people are seeking in their real estate tools, from the agent they work with to the home search they conduct on their mobile devices. Tickets and an informative custom research report and DVD series recapping the event will be made available through the Hear It Direct website at http://www.hearitdirect.com/events/. To learn more about Hear It Direct, please contact 973.869.9357.

Own Your Blog or Else! Easy WordPress Install

Posted on May 11, 2012 by

www.trishjones.com Watch this video tutorial and see how simple it is to get online with a blog today! Create a blog using free software from wordpress.org and get tips on why, if you want to become a serious blogger, if you want to make money with your blog or, if you want to control your blog, then using free blogs such as blogger.com or wordpress.com is NOT an option … You must own your blog. Here’s why …if you use hosted solutions such as blogger.com or wordpress.com, they can delete your site without your permission and there is nothing you can do about it. Also, using hosted sites to host your blog means that you have limited opportunities of monetizing your blog because some of them don’t allow you to make the most of advertising with say Google AdSense. WordPress.com for example makes it very clear that it is against their terms of service to commercialize your WordPress.com hosted blog by hosting paid advertising and will result in your blog being deleted. In fact, I’ve just been reading one forum where there is a reader called “Rainmaker” and he seems to have made it his job to report people who are commercializing their WordPress blogs and within no time, their sites have been deleted by WordPress. So don’t say you haven’t been warned. What you need to do is go to WordPress.org and download their free software and then upload the software to the server where you have your own hosting account, using your own domain name. Alternatively, you can use the …
