No matter what type of product you’re trying to sell, advertise, market, and otherwise profit from, there’s bound to be a trade show to promote it. Sometimes these shows are overlooked as a lot of hassle for not a lot of pay-off. But the reality is, trade shows can be very valuable in a number of obvious and not-so-obvious ways. The obvious ways include: getting your product out there where people can see it, being able to network with a lot of people in the same area of the business world as yourself, and seeing what the competition has to offer. Some of the more obscure advantages to attending a trade show include: seeing how your staff works, picking up tips on what to do (and not do!) from other vendors, and simple practice at evaluating how you execute a plan. Yes, I said a couple of dreaded words: evaluate and plan. It is important to have a plan for the tradeshow, though you need not spend 24/7 planning it for two weeks. Put thought into who is going to attend the tradeshow, which products you’re going to highlight, develop some literature (pamphlets, brochures, flyers, even a new business card) that is cost-effective but gets the point across (i.e. print the lit at your own office! No need to spend a ton of money at a printer in this day and age of advanced home-and-business office printing technology), and then debrief when it’s over. Follow-up on contacts that you’ve made, see if your staff felt successful and productive, and apply what you’ve learned to the next trade show. Like many things, your attitude plays a part in what you will get out of the trade show, so expect something positive and ye shall receive.

There are thousands and thousands of webhosting companies available to choose from, and with such a great variety choosing the right, reliable host can be a chore.  So here are some simple tips to choose a reliable webhost:

Support

Customer service and support is often the most crucial deciding factor for many when choosing host.  Look for a host that provides telephone and email support.  Many also offer live chat support which can come in handy.  They should also offer 24/7 support.

Uptime

Before signing up for a host do a bit of research to see if your host has a good uptime record.  Try a Google search with the hosts name and the keyword “downtime”.  Make sure they offer an uptime guarantee were they will refund your payment if they go down or have less than 99.9% uptime.

Control Panel

Look for a host that meets your needs - what scripts will you be using?  Do you require special plugins, features etc.  The majority of hosts of cPanel as the backend which I highly recommend.  MediaTemple also has a brilliant control panel.

Guarantee

Finally, look for a “30 day guarantee” where the host will refund your purchase if you are not satisfied.  This is a great way to try out hosts and don’t be afraid to ask for your money back.

Running a proxy site can be extremely profitable if you combine the right marketing tactics with the right software and hosting.  My proxies can make anywhere from $5 - $20 a day with Adsense and here are my secrets to running a proxy site.

Hosting

Proxy sites use a lot of bandwidth so you will need a good host that accepts proxy sites.  Most shared hosting services don’t allow Proxies.  I recommend TechEntrance - they have been around for a while and offer a really good service that is both cheap and has amazing uptime.   You can also try a VPS (virtual private server) or dedicated solution depending on whether you want to run a network or not.  Don’t try running your proxy site on your existing shared hosting account - you will get your account suspended and really blow your bandwidth budget.

Promotion and Traffic

Sending through quality traffic to a proxy is dead simple. Stay completely away from Topsites and you will be fine - I have never used topsites and all my proxies do well.  Start by stumbling your site using StumbleUpon and then head on over to Google Groups and find a group for proxies (there are lots).  And finally take a look at LinkedProxy which is a newsletter which you advertise in.  These three methods (repeated) will continue driving a good steady flow of visitors.

Sell Up

I recommend selling a proxy after running it for a few weeks.  This will complete your investment and make you some quick cash to expand your network.  Never get attached to a proxy - they get blocked by the schools eventually and its better to sell while its doing ok.

Optimize

Try a range of different themes, scripts and domains.  Don’t put all your eggs in the one basket.  Some themes will deliver better click through rates then others and some domains just don’t seem to work.  btw. I always use cheap .info domains as I have found that it doesn’t seem to matter whether you use .com, .net or .info domains.

SEO

Having your proxy listed in search engines will provide the best conversion rates on your ads and the best quality traffic.  Remember, use keywords in your title, have quality text on the page and submit it to Google for faster inclusion.

There are many different ways to market and promote a website, each with their own pros and cons.  Some cost money and others are free.  Here are my top methods for promoting a new website online.

StumbleUpon

StumbleUpon has the potential to send thousands of visitors to your website in just a few hours.  More information on StumbleUpon here.  SU traffic is often not very targeted and may not stay around on your site for very long.  The Adsense CTR is also not very good.  But it can increase your sites Alexa rank and possibly create a few returning visitors.

Articles

I haven’t done a lot of work with Article promoting.  But this technique involves writing lots a articles (preferably related to your site) and then include a link back to your site somewhere in the article.  Once you have a good set of articles written you can submit them to multiple article sites.

Links

Paid links can work sometimes and other times they can be a complete waste of money.  The trick to buying links, is to purchase them on targeted and related sites.  So if your site is about dogs.  Think about purchasing sites on Dog Food, Dog Sitters etc.   You can purchase links directly with webmasters through various forums such as DigitalPoint, or use a network like TextLinkAds

Do you want to make money blogging? Blogging can be a great way to make money, and its also a lot of fun to create valuable content or an online journal.

Here are some valuable tips on how you can make money blogging.

Get Hosted

It’s important to get your own hosting account and domain if you are serious about making money online. For SEO purposes I recommend regsitering a domain which is short and contains a keyword related to your site. For example, if you we’re starting a site about dogs, register a domain such as doginformation.com. When it comes to hosting you can pretty much go anywhere, but I recommend finding a host that includes Fantastico because will make installing a blog a lot easier.

Software

Once you have got yourself a hosting account, you will need to install the blogging software. I would go with Wordpress as its widely supported, included with the Fantastico 1 click installer and has many themes and plugins available for it. Its also very easy to integrate Adsense into a Wordpress blog.

Content

When it comes to making money with blogging, the key really is content. Quality content will attract visitors to your site and if you create lots of quality content, coupled with good marketing practices you could make lots of money. I recommend writing at least 1 post per day.

Money

Now here is the important information. There are many ways to monetize a blog and won’t go into long detailed descriptions here. Instead, I will list off a few sites which provide a valuable source of income for many bloggers.

Adsense is probably the easiest. This works well on niche blogs (blogs on a specific topic) but not so well on general or personal sites. Earnings will be minimal unless you can attract a large audience. If you aren’t interested in Adsense, then I would take a look at PayPerPost. PayPerPost will pay you anywhere between $5 and $1000 to write a sponsored post on your blog. It can be very easy to make money with PayPerPost.

Here’s an offer thats hard to refuse.  A fully functioning web 2.0 company for under $100!  Thats exactly what NameOp.com offers.

NameOp has put together a great collection of web 2.0 sites for less than $100.  All the sites are unique, many custom coded and look great!

They also have a great range of premium domains for sale.

But the best bit about NameOp is the price - other companies charge thousands for the same product and there sites are usually turnkey and not unique.  I even feel as though NameOp are undercharging!

Take a look at Flimble.com, a PR2 bidding directory and a great place to start your directory campaign.

Like other bidding directories, the more you bid the higher your link will be displayed on the directory.  And or course the aim is to get as high up in the directory as possible for more traffic (and front page results have a higher PR).

Unlike other bidding directories, Flimble has some unique features such as site logos (instead of thumbnail screenshots), detailed descriptions, site stats and user comments.

With the addition of user comments, I have found this directory to be extremely social and the user feedback can be extremely valuable.

Take a look at: http://www.flimble.com
