submit your website or blog to a search engine

So, is your website up?? If yes and if the content is up to date as of now then its time to catch some traffic.And the best and classical way of doing it is by submiting it to search engines.

"We add and update new sites to our index each time we crawl the web, and we invite you to submit your URL here. We do not add all submitted URLs to our index, and we cannot make any predictions or guarantees about when or if they will appear."says google

So before submiting to search engines make sure that there are no dead links and also make sure that there is enough content!!!

Also its better to create a sitemap for your website and submit it, so that it will be easy for the crawler to navigate through your website. So, submit each and every individual IMPORTANT page of your website along with the sitemap.

Affiliate marketing

Ever heard of this term affiliate?? A person who markets the products of other merchants is known as an affiliate. These days due to heavy competition for selling online, most of the online shops together with top brands have applied this affiliate marketing technique to get their produts sold!!!And its working great for many...

Wel, lots of money can be earned through this program if you are ready to put a lil effort. I hope u dont mind doing that!!!

(1) Build website of your interest. For details about how to build a simple website go here.
(2) Write good review or refer the products/services that you think are good to your traffic.
Make sure that you write about products that are relevant to your website contenet.
For eg: If you build a sports website and recomending a "sofa set" might not workwell!!!

Note: Pls pls only promote products that you think are really good... Just for sake of money, if you write good reviews about bad products, u might end up with a traffic loss!

(3)for every sale/action/click made, you are going to get paid a comission.

Now the question is " from where do i find those merchants who are implementing this affiliate marketing"??
