I opened my yahoo store on July 01, 2008. Hits 10,000 July 31==11,000 (1,000 for month) Aug 31==13,010 (2,010 for month) Sept 30==14,854 (1,844 for month) Oct 29= 18,166 (3,312 for month) I basically advertised with free search engines. All my orders come from Google. Nothing from Yahoo. Have an affiliate program thru Clixgalore. I offer affiliates 10% commission, 5%--2 Tier and lifetime commissions. I promote catalog sales for my sterling silver jewelry offline with a commission from 33 1/3%-50%. How do I get more traffic/hits to my website? I want to explode out. Thank your very much for your time and help. Happy Halloween. Regards, Kenny G Rogers, NY My biggest concern is getting more traffic to my website faster. I opened my yahoo store on July 01, 2008.

I'd blogged for personal reasons--to highlight trips to Africa and around the world, to show pictures, and to rant about different subjects. Now that i've started writing on 'serious' topics, i'm wondering how long it takes to generate traffic--but traffic that isn't paid for, and that doesn't require me making sure I link to other blogs or sites for the sole purpose of link building, etc. Does anyone have an opinion on actually just getting traffic based on the content of your blog, rather than the tricks outside of content to drive traffic?

There are many good choices of successful online businesses. Everything from bait to shoelaces, or from stockings to kites. My point is find what you like to do and become good at it! Everyone has strengths they can use. If you are looking for a niche market, be very general when you start your search. For example if your interest is in dogs, go to keywordtracker and type in "dogs". Let the key word search do the rest. Under "dogs" there will be a long list of dog related items with a number beside each phrase, the number is the search popularity in the past 60 days people have been using to find specific items. Move down the list and pick several out. Now check the popularity of those search terms in google and see what the competition is like. You will eventually find less popular search items to use for your own web site and affiliate marketing. Get good at that one thing... and thats it! You have just entered a niche market segment. The only other advice I can suggest is to purchase Rosalind's affliate marketing book. I read through the first edition cover to cover, Twice! Excellent material, full of real information that really works. Now I'm reading through her current 2nd edition. Once more, it has all the tools to make a big difference with your online business. Yes its worth the money without exception! This is not a shameless plug for her book. There's real information here, well worth the price. Randy Leaf Find your market and get good at it!

If I was a "Student" "broke living with my mother" or somewhere inbetween with hours of time to sit in front of a PC I could earn a living on the internet but no one seems to take into account that most of us are working to pay the bills with additional responsibilities. having had my moan its also my responsibility to GOMA - Get of my behind and set up a blog and earn money even if its only $10 Regards nick Hi Ros,

having had my moan its also my responsibility to GOMA – Get of my behind and set up a blog and earn money even if its only $10

What I haven't yet done is to organize this infomation in a simple across and down format. Starting with purpose/mission at upper right and completion stats at lower left. A real tool to fill out and use productively. The stumbling blocks are 1. Not a quick start nor technical person. 2. The very little things that look and actually are simple. There are quite a few sites, including YouTube, that teach these details. Yet, for me, this still results in scattered info. I would like all this edu to be in one place. Tellman Knudson has some good teaching videos. Even in this format the information is too back and forth, and noisy. One place. One website. Simple. If I knew how to do this I would.

I would much rather have a website/blog that appealed to my senses than the cookie cutter sites and boiler plate blogs that come standard with "packages." By the time I figure out how to modify "something" or change blog theme the inspiration of the article has vanished in direct proportion to mental effort needed to make the changes. What is needed is the "windows" equivalent to DOS for CPanel, and thus an intuitive interface on the server. That at least takes away the mental anguish I feel when I'm trying to negotiate CPanel.
