A Paradigm Shift in Online Advertising – And You Can Benefit

A Paradigm Shift in Online Advertising – And You Can Benefit

Would you be interested in making some extra money when you get on the web? No need to sell anything, make cold calls, develop a website, and best of all, it is free. All you have to do is download and put a free toolbar on your browser. When you want to earn some cash, you click a button on the toolbar then view and rate a brief advertisement. That is how the system works. If you are willing to spread the word to your friends, family, your favorite charity or non-profit and have those folks follow the same procedure, you can make money when they make money. Too good to be true? Read further and decide for yourself.

The developer of this brand new toolbar is the Boloto Group of Scottsdale, Arizona. Boloto is a ten-year-old company that says it works to provide solutions to problems it perceives in the marketplace. One problem it saw was online advertising that was overpriced and ineffective. Its solutions, called Invite5 and Get The Bar, offer better ways for businesses to deliver advertising to a targeted demographic, gain feedback on that advertising, and do so at lower costs. At the same time, the Boloto system compensates participating consumers for their time and candid opinions. Boloto has spent the better part of its existence developing Invite5 and Get The Bar, which has taken years of programming, created four U.S. and world patents pending on the technology and cost millions of dollars in development.

So, how does it work? If you are an person, you register and download the Invite5 toolbar and set it up on your Firefox and/or Internet Explorer web browsers. The toolbar is unobtrusive and looks comparable to any other toolbar you have installed, but this one has a button called “Ads.” On any website at any time you can click the “Ads” button, and a column of text ads appears on the left side of the screen. There are two kinds of ads. Ads colored blue and gray are called 10 cent ads, for which advertisers have paid – you guessed it – 10 cents. These advertisements are tailored to the interests and demographic information provided by you when you signed up with Invite5. There are also green and gray ads from 3rd party ad networks, which are not related to your demographic. Click either type of ad, regardless of its color, and it pops up in a new window. Once viewed and rated on a one-to-five star scale (10 cent ads only; no rating necessary for 3rd party ads), you get paid. Over time, as advertisers come up with more 10 cent ads, Invite5 will scale back, and then eventually eliminate, the 3rd party network ads altogether.

You can click up to 10 ads per day, and you earn a penny for the 10 cent ads and 1/3 cent for 3rd party network ads. The toolbar shows in real time the amount you have earned. Although one cent does not seem like much incentive to look at an ad, Invite5 has implemented a creative viral marketing strategy with a tiered payment system. While you get paid a penny for your own clicks, you get 1/3 of a penny for the clicks of everyone or every group you introduce to the bar and the people that they introduce and so on, down seven layers deep. You are not limited in the number of introductions that you make, nor are your friends, nor are their friends, so if it continues going viral those partial pennies add up fast.

Invite5’s website provides a calculator that estimates how much you earn if everything goes according to plan. Suppose you register 10 people. Then each of those 10 people sign up five of their friends and then those five sign up five of their friends and so on to seven levels deep. If all of the people in that matrix average three ad clicks a day for a month, the calculator estimates you would make over ,000 that month. Now exact duplication with a down-line is virtually impossible, so let’s plug in some very conservative numbers. What if you have five personal sign-ups, three enrollments for everyone thereafter down to seven levels, and an average of two clicks each. That equals 3 per month, plus change. That can cover a lot of childcare, groceries or some other expenses in these dismal economic times. That would really be an economic stimulus package.

You can also sign up any company or organization through Invite5’s sister program, called Get The Bar. As long as the group lists your user name as the referrer, you will earn on any users the group enrolls, down seven levels deep, just like Invite5. So you can invite your favorite non-profit, church, school or charity to join. As the organization’s members join and view ads, the organization gets paid, and you get paid. It is the equivalent of an organization having an automated donation machine.

With Get The Bar, an organization can also use the toolbar to communicate with its members. The Get The Bar toolbar is customizable so any organization can upload their logo to the bar. When members join they will be able to place the organization’s logo on their toolbar as well. Clicking that logo will take the member to the organization’s latest news, updates or offers. So suppose your kids’ school district has the toolbar and inclement weather comes. Rather than having to watch the endless scroll of school names on television or search for the district’s website, you can find out if school is closed with one click on your toolbar.

Do you have a company with a website and a list of customers? Get the toolbar and invite your customers to join, which will make you and them money. You can use your company’s logo to inform your customers about your latest sales, your newest line of products, whatever. Boloto also has a widget that you can place on your company’s website. With it, visitors can make you money by clicking on the widget, regardless of whether they are members of Invite5.

If all this sounds vaguely familiar, it may be because Boloto Group has been testing another toolbar, similarly called GetTheBar, since last December. Boloto released it to a limited number of users in order to fine tune the program and work out any software bugs and also to see how well the concept took off. It exceeded their expectations, all the while using only the 3rd party exchange ads that were not specifically targeted to the demographics of the user, and frankly, not very good ads.

By this time you probably are shaking your head in disbelief, waiting to hear the catch. “Free” on the internet is a four letter word that never means free. Being a skeptic myself, I put on my lawyer’s hat and read through all the dreadfully dull fine print of the terms of service agreement, the end user’s license and the privacy policy, and there is no catch that I can find. It is all fairly boilerplate language similar to unread terms you have agreed to hundreds of times previously on other registrations.

If you have questions about privacy, I have found nothing of concern there either. The only personal information required to register for Invite5 is your name and date of birth, which is the same information you gave when you signed up for Facebook or MySpace. All other information you give is demographic: zip code, country, ethnicity, marital status, income range, gender, whether you are a homeowner, and whether you use tobacco or alcohol. That information is used to tailor the 10 cent ads specific to you. Boloto guarantees that none of your personal information is disclosed, so you remain completely anonymous to the advertisers.

You also have to give a valid email address, which will be used as your user name, but that can be a dummy account that you set up with a free provider. Once you earn enough funds to be paid – – you have to give them an address and telephone number, but that is standard with any affiliate program. Upon earning 0, you will have to provide a social security number, which is required by the IRS for tax purposes.

What about other issues such as spyware, spamming, or charging for an upgrade? The answer is no to all of them. The toolbar is not spyware as it does not track any information about its users. Invite5 places a temporary cookie on your browser when you sign in to your account that is used to bring up ads that match your demographic information. Unlike many other sites, it is not a tracking cookie, because like many of you, Boloto believes that where you go on the internet is not its business. Invite5 advertises that it will always be free to users, and it has an incredibly strong anti-spam policy. Boloto’s definition of spam is broad, and anyone caught spamming will forfeit all compensation and be banned permanently.

When GetTheBar came out, some questioned whether advertisers would direct ad dollars, especially in a bad economy, to a form of media where the customer is incentivized to click on an ad for a product that they may have no interest in purchasing. The truth is advertisers give incentives all the time to consumers to pay attention to their ads, whether it be monetary or not. Why else are buxom blonds in ads that have nothing to do with being buxom or being blond? ZenithOptimedia, a British market research firm, reported that advertisers waste more than 200 billion dollars annually on advertising that does not reach its targeted demographic. Advertisers will gladly pay consumers to view an ad provided they are given a captive audience in the demographics the advertiser is targeting. In fact, advertisers already do it all the time – they are called focus groups.

Those concerns also assume that the only purpose of an advertisement is to make a sale; but that assumption is absolutely false. The purpose of a large percentage of advertising is branding, and many major advertisers have avoided big buys on the net because the dominant form of online advertising – pay per click – is too expensive and has a fraud rate estimated to be as high as 30% of the clicks. According to Emarketer, another market research firm, 2009 advertising expenditures in the United States alone will top over 300 billion dollars, with about 10% of that – 3o billion – spent on internet advertising. Of that 30 billion, Emarketer estimates over 8 billion dollars is spent per year on pay per click. That means click fraud accounts for up to 2.4 billion dollars each year. Furthermore, the internet’s share of advertising has continued to rise, despite the dismal economy. Advertisers may be cutting back, but the more traditional media of television and print suffer the most.

As a result, if a company is new or wants to roll out a new product line, Invite5 would be a perfect avenue because it is cheap and laser targeted to a captive audience. Networks promoting a new television show and movie studios preparing for the release of the latest blockbuster would love to have not only the inexpensive advertising, but the feedback from consumers on their campaigns. Where else can advertisers get 1000 impressions before a targeted demographic for 0? That price tag goes down further when you consider that an Invite5 user who likes an ad has the option to hit a built in share button and send the ad to their favorite social media sites. That feature has a dual effect: first, it allows an ad to go viral in an organic fashion, potentially reducing the cost of the ad to fractions of a penny per impression; second, it gives advertisers incentive to produce top shelf advertising, which in turn will draw in more consumers. Some people like to claim they pay no attention to advertising, but the truth is they do not pay attention to bad advertising. Over half the people who watched the 2009 Super Bowl did not tune in for the game – they watched to see the new 30 second ads advertisers paid 3 million dollars per pop to show.

The aspect that captures my attention the most though is how this system can benefit the average person and every underfunded non-profit organization. Think about how many people are struggling today with unemployment at near record highs and employers cutting benefits to those fortunate enough to still be employed. What could an extra couple thousand dollars per month do to benefit those people? Think of the foreclosures and bankruptcies that could have been avoided. Consumers’ time, opinions and hard earned dollars have forever been the engine driving corporate advertising and ultimately making corporations billions in revenue. This is the first time consumers can share in a piece of the pie for giving their time, effort and money.

As for non-profit organizations, which often do many thankless yet necessary jobs that make our communities better places to live, consider how much more good they could accomplish with not only the extra funds but the extra time presently spent on fund-raising. Imagine school kids not needing to sell coupon books or hold car washes because there is no room in the district’s budget for this or that. Think of how school districts could have the funds to hire enough teachers so that classroom ratios are lower and how districts could afford to pay teachers their real value. The possibilities are endless.

Too good to be true? Could be. Change is hard, and there are a number of powerful interests that have no desire in seeing change to the present system for it is making them billions. Maybe consumers will be too suspect of a free offer, having been burned previously. Boloto may not be able to get enough 10 cent ads up and running to keep the momentum going with users. Personally, I think Invite5 has a good chance of creating a paradigm shift in the way online advertising dollars are spent and paid. Enough consumers will get on board to show the suspicious that there is no nefarious purpose underfoot. The younger generations, who already rely on the internet for the vast majority of their information delivery, will have few qualms. Advertisers know consumers are flocking to the internet, and if an advertiser can capture a specific demographic for a fraction of the cost of current advertising, internet or otherwise, they will flock to Invite5 to purchase ad buys. As for Boloto’s preparedness, I find it hard to believe a company that has spent this much time and money developing Invite5 and Get The Bar would have overlooked the importance of getting compelling ads up quickly.

Personally, I have already signed up, and if you are an individual and wish to do the same, you can register by clicking the link below. If you are interested in Get The Bar for your company or non-profit, contact me directly.. But whether you register here or elsewhere, do yourself and your family a favor and sign up and then share your link with your friends, your church, you kid’s school district and your favorite charity. Maybe I5 will be a miserable failure, but if it is what exactly have you lost?

Suppose in 1998 someone gave you 00 to invest in a little internet start-up from Menlo, California that had a nonsensical name. You are also given with that 00 a reasoned explanation of what the company did and how they did it. Despite this explanation you are still suspect about the viability of this company, but hey, you have been given the investment money so it will not cost you anything. What would you have done? Made the investment or pocketed the money and went about your business? What if I told you that start-up was named Google? This is not to suggest that Invite5 is the next Google. But ask yourself this question: what if it is?

How to Benefit From Keyword Research

How to Benefit From Keyword Research

As a website owner, you’ve undoubtedly heard that keyword research is important.  To be honest, the importance of proper keyword research cannot be understated — it wields a great deal of power.  Proper keyword research can help you focus your on-page SEO campaigns so that you attract visitors who convert.  For your off-page search marketing campaigns, it can show you keywords than you can rank for, even in competitive keyword markets. Keyword research even plays a role in PPC marketing campaigns — it can help you save money by lowering your cost-per-click, and may be able to point out keywords that convert better than others do. So, now that you know some of the reasons why keyword research is important, how can you use it to your greatest advantage?

Know your customers and market

In order to effectively research keywords that pertain to your market, you need to know your customers, how they think, and how they will search for what you have to offer.  While you may be able to glean some insight from your competition, there are no guarantees that they are doing things right themselves.  So, your best course of action is to get to know your audience, and think like they do. 

What this does is allows you to come up with keyword ideas that you wouldn’t automatically think about, and potential keywords that some keyword research tools wouldn’t give you. As an example, if you operate a landscaping-tips website, you have a barrage of terms that are related to your website — nursery, garden, lawn, grass, flowers, weeds, crabgrass, etc.  Incorporate those terms into your keyword research to see if you can find something that has value for your marketing efforts — don’t rely on keyword research tools, especially those of the free variety, to do all of your legwork for you.

Use your server logs for keyword ideas

While you can’t really use this on a brand new website, once you start receiving search engine traffic — pay attention to which keywords people are using to find your website.  More likely than not, you’ll start to see patterns of keywords showing up in your server logs — once you see these patterns, dig into that keyword market a little bit with your favorite keyword-research tool. 

Many website owners overlook this tactic, and it’s a shame. Your server logs can provide better information than any paid keyword research tool ever could, so long as you use them effectively. 

Test everything, and tweak when necessary

Initial keyword research is not an exact science — it is largely guesswork based on fixed metrics with varying degrees of accuracy. For best results, you should incorporate a third-party analytics program that will show you which keywords send you visitors who take a desired action on your website.  While your server logs may be able to give you some insight here, very few pre-installed analytics applications allow you to follow your visitors’ movements from entry to exit — usually you have to install a free third-party application, or even invest in one.  However, if you are running a for-profit website, analyzing your website’s visitors, how they find your website, and which types of visitors convert, is just as important as keyword research.

Once you’ve identified keywords that lead to a positive end-result on your website, capitalize on that and head back to your favorite keyword research tool to see if you can find more keyphrases to target so that you can increase your conversions, or earnings, even more.

Keyword research can be one of the most valuable tools in your online-marketing arsenal.  It doesn’t matter if you use a free keyword tool, or you pay for one — if you start out with compressive research, follow it up with paying attention and testing your results, you’ll be miles ahead of many of your competitors, and you’ll have the results to prove it.

How Can You Benefit From Keyword Density?

How Can You Benefit From Keyword Density?

Keyword density is an Internet marketing indicator of the number of times the selected keyword appears in the web page. But mind you, keywords shouldn’t be over used, but should be just sufficient enough to appear at important places in your website.


If you repeat your keywords with every other word on every line, then your site will probably be rejected as an artificial site or spam site. This is not what you should aim for, so you have to be careful.


Keyword density is always expressed as a percentage of the total word content on a given web page.


For example, suppose you have 100 words on your webpage (not including HMTL code used for writing the web page), and you use a certain keyword for five times in the content. The keyword density on that page is got by simply dividing the total number of keywords, by the total number of words that appear on your web page.


So here it is 5 divided by 100 = .05. Because keyword density is a percentage of the total word count on the page, you multiply the above by 100, that is 0.05 x 100 = 5%


The accepted standard for a keyword density is between 3% and 5%, to get recognized by the search engines and you should never exceed it. Take note of this.


There are simple steps to check the density:


- Copy and paste the content from an individual web page into a word-processing software program like Word or Word Perfect.


- Go to the “Edit” menu and click “Select All”. Now go to the “Tools” menu and select “Word Count”. Write down the total number of words in the page.


- Now select the “Find” function on the “Edit” menu. Go to the “Replace” tab and type in the keyword you want to find. “Replace” that word with the same word, so you don’t change the text.


- When you complete the replace function, the system will provide a count of the words you replaced. That gives the number of times you have used the keyword in that page.


- Using the total word count for the page and the total number of keywords you can now calculate the keyword density.


Remember, that this rule applies to every page on your site. It also applies to not just to one keyword but also a set of keywords that relates to a different product or service. The keyword density should always be between 3% and 5%.

Google Adsense – How Everyone Can Benefit by Staying Clean

 

In order to make a program such as Google Adsense work effectively, it has to present something innovative or it has to perform existing methods in a more effective way.  Google actually accomplished both goals when it set out to promote AdSense.  The concept was fairly new, although built on the general work of the WordNet, Simpli and Applied Semantics programs as well as by extensive development work by Brown University personnel. Google’s program also took the idea of advertising in media and made it work for the internet. Those who use the program continually find new ways to make it even more profitable.

 

The bad guys

 

Early in the history of Google Adsense, it received some negative publicity from two quarters.  First was the group who said it would never work and who pooh-poohed the idea of people paying to read an ad. Strictly speaking though, people pay to read or watch or listen to ads all the time in almost any media you can name. The second groups of people are the ones that actually caused the most problem.  They saw in the program only ways to twist it to make more money for themselves, instead of using it as it was intended.  However, Google aggressively went after and shut down the web sites that were created only for the purpose of gaining revenue on the clicks, rather than on the content.

 

Content is king

 

Google Adsense administrators took the view, and rightfully so, that a web site with no useful content will only give all advertising a bad image.  Unfortunately, in the course of getting rid of the publishers who did not comply with the publishing guidelines set forth by Google, a few of the good guys got lost in the shuffle too.  Google allowed such publishers to present their point of view and most were reinstated.

 

Associated Services

 

Along with Google Adsense, savvy web masters have found ways to use its associated services in ways that increase revenue potential even higher. For example, learning the value of various keywords is possible with some current software programs.  When you create websites to take advantage of much used keywords, you have a better chance of increasing your revenue.  You can build up sites for other web marketers and sell or lease the domain names or your abilities as an organizer. Creating synonyms for keywords is a faculty used in some software available on the internet.

 

Potential

 

The potential for income is sky high for those who are willing to take the concepts of internet marketing and apply them to Google Adsense.  In fact, though the receipt of income depends on being canny about understanding and using the principles of publishing ads under the Google program.  Depend upon good, strong content rather than tricks and short cuts.  Your visitors and customers expect true value received, not hints, hot air and weasel words. Take advantage of the wealth of advice available from those who had made the program work for them.

Internet Users Benefit From The Search Engine / SEO Cat-And-Mouse

A constant cat-and-mouse game between the major Internet search engines and search engine optimization (SEO) companies has an interesting result: As these two groups try to psych each other out to beat the other’s system, search capabilities are constantly improving for the consumer of Internet services.
Here’s what happens: Each search engine develops a formula for producing the most accurate, relevant results according to the Internet user’s keyword search, and then the SEO companies analyze the search engine’s function and develop a system of strategies to allow their customers to take advantage of that formula. Common strategies include providing enriched text blocks (a few paragraphs of text containing multiple keywords likely to be picked up by the search engines), general interest articles, with embedded links, on particular topics relevant to the customer, development of multiple links to the customer’s site from other websites, and a combination of sponsored links and pay-per-click ads (paid ads which appear on other websites). This combination of strategies promises to improve a website’s ranking in the search results, a valuable asset in cyberspace; if a company can land on the first page of a keyword search, the probability of the Internet user visiting its website skyrockets.
Of course, as soon as the SEO companies figure out a particular search engine’s formula, the search engine changes the rules, since the search engine’s honchos want to provide the most accurate, up-to-date, and relevant information, and not allow website owners to game the system. And of course the SEO companies respond with new, more sophisticated strategies. The result to Internet users is a constantly improving ability to search efficiently for the goods, services, and information they need.
Google is the biggest game in town, but other search engines have their following; Alta Vista is popular among college students and serious researchers, for instance. There’s also dogpile.com, a search engine that searches all the other major search engines and pulls up the most relevant results from each. And new search engines pop up all the time – Ask.com and AskJeeves.com are two examples of newer search engines with popular followings. A good SEO company will develop strategies not just for Google, but for all the major search engines.
Search engines aren’t perfect, of course, and one thing they can’t do at the moment is access specific information contained in the multitude of databases available on the Internet. Federal, state, and some local governments have searchable, free databases which allow users to access this information; other databases, such as Ancestry.com, charge a subscription fee for their use. For public information on the federal level in the U.S., FirstGov.gov is a great place to start.
Search strategies exist for the web surfer as well. Just try doing a Google search for tax information, for instance. Type “taxes” into the keyword search bar and click on Search. In the U.S. you’ll see irs.com, and then numerous companies advertising their tax services. But type in “taxes .gov” and you’ll pull up the same IRS site, followed by many more government website pages, some of which may provide more direct access to the information you need than going through irs.com, and without having to wade through a bunch of accounting firms. Type in “taxes UK .gov” and you pull up government information for the United Kingdom, and so on. Doing a keyword search on the general topic you’re researching should pull up relevant database sites. (By the way, if you want to see an example of great search engine optimization strategies, do a search on “genealogy” and look at all the links to Ancestry.com on the websites you find—they’re everywhere!)
As the cat-and-mouse game continues between search engine companies and SEO firms, the result promises to be ever more sophisticated, powerful, and accurate techniques for accessing valuable information over the Internet. As the continuing success of more and more new search engines suggests, we may have only scratched the surface of our Internet information technology capabilities.
