| Example of a Freelance Writing Request Posted: 04 Apr 2011 05:44 AM PDT April 4, 2011 Homepreneurs has previously blogged about starting a freelance writing business. This opportunity is a relatively low-cost, simple to implement home business idea. In the post mentioned, many links to legitimate web sites were provided for investigation. One website not mentioned, but always containing opportunities for hompreneur writers is bemywriter.com. This site does not charge to register; simply fill out a profile with your interests, skills, and contact information and wait for emails to show up in your mailbox. An example that arrived in my email on Friday is below. This listing provides a good idea of what some clients pay for writing and may help you decide about starting a home business based on writing. In the interests of privacy, names and other contact information of respondents to this add are changed, but the text is unedited for a better understanding of how the process works. ——————– Project: Permenent writing positions
The above is a typical example of a request for writers, a general description of the work, other conditions of contract, and a pay rate. Respondents reply with a brief summary of their qualifications and enter a bid. The requester may contact each individual and ask for a sample written paragraph or two, based on a random topic (my experience). Either the requester replies with suggestions or issues with the sample, accepts the bid or the bid is rejected and you may never know the reason, much like a job application. This is a real example of what to expect if interested in applying for writing positions. One won’t make a fortune from any individual job or project, but will gain valuable experience in the bidding process while fine-tuning skills and creating a portfolio for future writing positions.

| Surefire Ways to Get Traffic To New Blog Posts Posted: 03 Apr 2011 07:15 AM PDT Writing a good, informative blog post can feel very rewarding, especially if you’re like me and take your writing and your blogging seriously. Once you post it though, you can’t stop there. Even if you already have a steady stream of visitors, you can always have more traffic to your blog, it all depends on what you do when marketing your blog post. I’ve been talking a lot about Twitter in the last few weeks, but that’s because I really see it as a valuable tool. There’s now over 6 million users on Twitter, it’s growing almost exponentially, and the potential for profit is huge. Whenever you write a new blog post, you absolutely need to be tweeting it. It helps if you have a lot of followers of course, but you can read this girl’s blog post to find out more about how to do that. Blog Carnivals I wrote a long post about blog carnivals here, but in a nutshell they are an excellent way to both build relevant traffic and build relationships with other similar bloggers. Your posts are listed along with other related blogs, and viewers can head from one blog to the other reading the posts. I can’t say enough about blog carnivals. Build Relationships With Other Bloggers Blog carnivals aren’t the only ways to build blogger-to-blogger relationships and get more traffic to your blog; the first thing you can do is go to Google Blogs search and find blogs that deal with the same subject matter as yours, and then don’t just copy/paste some "nice post" drivel that proves that you either a) didn’t read the post or b) have absolutely no personality and no interesting opinion on anything. Rather, take time to read through the posts, and if one interests you or, better yet, if you can disagree with something, post a reply there. Find a few good blogs and just lurk every single day. Become an active member. Use Bookmarking Sites There’s a lot of good bookmarking sites out there, hundreds in fact. StumbleUpon, delicious, and digg to name a few, but there’s oh-so-many more. I’ve been submitting links to my posts manually, but just recently I decided to look for a bookmarking tool that would submit to all of my accounts at once. I found OnlyWire, which allows you to have a free account. Just started using it so I’m not sure how useful it’s going to be in the end. All of these methods work, and with the right tools you don’t have to actually spend a lot of time promoting your blog posts to see real results and to get a lot more traffic to your blog. I still typically spend about an hour promoting each post. What methods do you use? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Blog Carnivals for Traffic - Interview With a Blogger Posted: 31 Mar 2011 08:45 PM PDT
I mentioned in a previous post that blog carnivals are an excellent way to get more traffic to your blog, and I promised that I’d write a longer post about it sometime soon. I had the pleasure of interviewing Alaina Ellington of Living Simplistically about her use of blog carnivals and how much of a blog traffic increase she has seen. Here is what she had to say: How long have you been blogging? I have had a blog for over 2 years now, but I didn’t start blogging on a regular consistent basis until about a month ago. I tried it out 2 years back and grew impatient as well as found other ways to work from home and gave up for a long time. Then I decided to go back and give it another go, and I’m glad I did Where did you get the idea for hosting a blog carnival? The idea of creating a blog carnival came to me while researching how to drive traffic to your blog. I ran across the Blog Profits Blueprint and that was one of the ways listed there. I was very unsure of even how it works or how to start your own carnival, but I jumped in head first and I’m glad I did that too. Have you noticed a change in traffic since running your blog carnival? Definitely, my traffic has grown as has the amount of loyal readers. (Though some of them only read the carnival editions, and that’s fine too.) I bring in around 30 visitors a week, give or take. It really depends on the amount of submissions I receive for the particular edition. Usually the people who submit an article will come check out the edition to see if their submission was accepted or rejected, along with many search engine users also.
What other techniques do you use for traffic? There are so many! I would HIGHLY recommend Reddit, but do your research first you don’t want to get labeled a spammer or get trolled. I also use Digg, StumbleUpon, Linkreferral, profads, along with commenting on other blogs (and only adding my link when it is needed), commenting in forums, adding my web address to all of my online profiles and linking articles. Traffic is really a “see what works” kind of thing. Some things work for me that wouldn’t work for others and vice versa. The best advice is just try it all and find out what works. I normally test something for at least 2 weeks most usually a month. The combination I mentioned above has brought anywhere from 70 visitors a day to 2500 visitors a day it depends on the content I am promoting and the avenues I link to on any given day. How long did it take to set up the blog carnival? I have two blog carnivals, and setting each one up takes only a few minutes if you are planning to host the carnival on a blog you already run. (Just a side note: Publishing the edition each week takes anywhere from 2-15 minutes. I create my own banner each week so it takes me about 15 minutes, however if you were to just publish the edition with no banner and no modifications it could take as little as 30 seconds.) Now that you have it running, would you have done anything differently? Nope, I am pretty happy with it just the way it is. However, after you create a blog carnival you can go back and change it completely if you want to. What advice would you give a fellow blogger who wants to set up a blog carnival? I would say go for it! Do a little research, find out what type of carnival would work best for your blog, and go for it. Don’t forget to add the blog carnival widget to your blog because it does help to bring awareness to the carnival. It’s always good to have a decent amount of bloggers adding articles to your carnival because it brings in more views. Always make sure that you add a description to your carnival. Submissions (and editions) with descriptions always do better. Also it’s a good idea to limit the number of submissions per person each edition, otherwise your edition gets bombarded by the same user and doesn’t allow for much visibility for the other articles that have been submitted. Be sure to promote the edition as well, so the bloggers who use your carnival will come back. There are currently 4 editions of the Living Simplistically Carnival for Saving and Making Money Articles
There are two ways to use BlogCarnival.com – you can either host a blog or submit your own blog posts to be included in other blog carnivals. When you go to the website you can browse their list of blog carnivals and sort by category, name, latest edition, or next edition. They don’t seem to care much about removing inactive blog carnivals, so the best method is to sort by category and then make sure that there is a date under the next edition column, otherwise you can waste a lot of time looking through inactive carnivals. Either method is a great way to increase blog traffic, as exemplified by Alaina’s blog. When you create one, each link should result in a pingback on the featured blog, allowing visitors of that blog to see your site. Additionally, blog carnival courtesy suggests that when you’re featured on a carnival you make a little post about the hosting blog or at least put a link back to it. This way the carnival benefits everyone involved. Check out these other great blog carnivals to learn more about online business, internet marketing, the outsourcing pros and cons, and much more: That about wraps it I guess. Thanks again Alaina for being a good sport as always, and with these helpful tips maybe some of you will start turning your blog into a high traffic carnival blog. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| The Twitter Experiment - Day 15 and First Sales Posted: 29 Mar 2011 12:04 PM PDT
Today is March 29, 2011, day 15 of The Twitter Experiment, and I made my first affiliate sales on Amazon using nothing but Twitter. Two items were purchased and shipped yesterday the 28th. After my recent doubts about the experiment, this came as a very welcome surprise, I’ll tell you that. Here are earlier updates on the Twitter Experiment in case you missed them: And now, without further ado, let’s take a look at Day 15 of the Twitter Experiment:
Current Stats – Twitter Following: 1,624 Followers: 1,115 Listed: 7 Lists Tweets: 251
Current Stats – Amazon Ordered Items: 2 Clicks: 1057 Conversion: 0.19% Total Earnings: $1.06
And my Amazon earnings report
I’ve got to say I’m pretty excited about these 2 conversions. I know it’s only $1.06, but I really wasn’t expecting to see anything for the first month, and it’s definitely much more than I’m making over at Triond. Above all, it proves that you can make money with Twitter using just a few simple techniques. Let’s talk about those techniques a little more. Futuretweets.com was a pain in the ass every time I used it. There was no way to set recurring tweets, which is half of what I’m trying to do. I went through and manually did it at the beginning, but my lazy nature caught up with me and I just wasn’t doing it as much as I needed to to really see any Twitter sales or profit. That’s when I found the best free twitter tool I’ve ever seen: Twaitter.com. It’s easy to schedule one time or recurring tweets, whether you want them to recur by day, week, month, year, every 4 days, every week on Monday and Thursday, etc., etc. This has made my life 1000x easier. You may have noticed that my follower stats haven’t changed at all; I still don’t know a good method of getting the follower to following ratio up. The Twitter follower ratio is still a mystery to me, so if you know what the exact ratio is I’d appreciate if you let me know. So to wrap up this segment, if you’re wondering how make money on Twitter this method could very well pan out. It seems like it will take a little while to get the ball rolling and see some constant income, but the potential for Twitter sales seems very high at this point. I’ll be updating whenever there’s a significant change from now on, such as when a sale is made, but in the meantime keep an eye out for my next post where I interview blogger Alaina Ellington of Living Simplistically about her use of blog carnivals to bring in free blog traffic. - Andrew Handley | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| How to Develop an Article Calendar Posted: 29 Mar 2011 03:27 AM PDT Some of you may already to this, but others may not realize what a great tool it can be when you’re trying to set up an article writing schedule. You can even use it to plan for releasing a new print book or E-book. Think seasonal. Think about how much lead time you need. Most magazines want a 4 to 6 month lead time. Some are only 60 days. The following are a place to start. It’s already the end of March for this year, so we’ll start with April dubmissions. April

A company’s top talent is the key element in distinguishing itself from others in today’s competitive business environment. Since its top performers are the mainstay of an organization’s success, a real problem presents itself in terms of how to retain their loyalty. Work ethics and attitudes have changed to give talented employees more power and more choices than ever. Moreover, a talented employee’s defection to a competing company can result in big financial losses for the organization in terms of lost production and contacts. By examining the reasons why employees choose to leave a particular place of employment, it is wise to first examine the reasons that employee chose to stay there as long as he or she did. Surprisingly, the main reason top talent leaves one company to work for another is not always because of dissatisfaction with one’s salary. It is because some aspect of what attracted them to your company initially deteriorated to the point that whatever the new company offers them seems more attractive. Direct management problems can often be the cause of a talented employee’s departure from a company. Something as seemingly trite as differences in working styles can cause breakdowns in communication and result in job dissatisfaction. This problem can be solved by training managers to be on the lookout for these types of problems and by giving them special skills needed to resolve minor conflicts without unwanted backlashes. Managers should be made aware that retention needs to rank high in their list of priorities and that they should pay heed to it at all times. Sadly, many managers only consider retention when they are given notice that someone has decided to leave the company. Showing a company’s talented employees that they are appreciated is one of the best ways to cause them to show loyalty to your company. Whenever possible, reward employees for jobs well done: whether monetarily or by some type of widespread recognition. Mention outstanding work accomplishments in meetings and newsletters and let these valuable employees know their performance within your organization has not gone unnoticed. Recent studies have shown that human resource and senior managers play a huge role in the retention of a company’s top performers. More than ever, emphasis should be placed on their being able to balance the needs of the top performers within the confines of the company’s needs as an organization. The rules have changed from the old days when employees committed to their jobs for a lifetime and today’s management teams should be specifically trained to put this on the forefront of their minds in order to compete in today’s more aggressive work environment.
