You might be like me, of course. I didn’t have the time or know-how to come up with an original idea and build my home-based business from the ground up. Not many people do. Luckily, you can successfully start your home-based business without having to go through the trouble of starting your own company. You can take surveys online. And get paid for it.

Amazingly, you can even make a good income by answering surveys. Why? Because large corporations and industries need to know what the American public wants. And they are willing to pay good money for this information. In fact, they have hired several Internet-based marketing companies to run these surveys and gather this kind of information. To them, your opinions are worth their weight in gold.

So I’m sure you’re wondering what these surveys are like. They’re simple, really. The surveys ask about your daily and weekly shopping habits. How many times did you go out to eat last week? What kind of cleaning supplies did you purchase? Are you happy with your cell phone service plan? While answering these questions may seem simple, you’re providing marketers and corporations with invaluable information. That’s why they are willing to pay you for your thoughts and opinions.

It may sound silly. But answering surveys is really is an important job. The information you give in those surveys will influence the kinds of products companies will sell and how they will market them to the buying public. Without that information companies will have a difficult time making smart business decisions. That’s why they spend so much money paying marketers and survey takers to help them create a picture of what the American public wants.

You are generally paid based on the number of surveys you complete, which is why your income potential can be limitless. You decide how many hours a day to put into this home-based business. It can easily be either a part-time or full-time job. It’s up to you. Depending on the effort you put into it, you can earn a consistent income.

So, back to our original question: Can you make $100 a day taking surveys? Yes, as long as you put the time and effort into it. It really is easier than you might suspect. Be creative. Explore all avenues. Have fun. You, too, will find where to take the surveys that will make you money. And you just might be surprised how profitable this particular home-based business can be.

Lockerz offers rewards for filling out surveys on a daily basis, and these rewards are fantastic! Ipods, Macbooks, Skateboards, Rings, you name it!

The CEO of the company is the former Chief Marketing Executive of American Eagle and she was also the former Vice President of Amazon.com . Also, it is funded by Liberty Media which owns Time Warner and many other popular services that you use on a daily basis.

When I first started in this business of Internet Marketing, I didn’t think of traffic. It was like when I came into this business I checked all my previous training at the door! And this from a guy who spent over 30 years creating traffic to retail stores.

Go figure. I guess I came to this form of selling with a totally open, and, in some cases, blank, mind.

But Traffic IS the most important thing. It doesn’t much matter how you get the traffic as long as it’s a form of traffic called “targeted traffic”.

And that is exactly what you get when you buy traffic from the PPC Search Engines.

You probably know this already, but it is a good idea to repeat it. And that is that selling something by means of the internet has an incredibly simple formula.

Here it is…Traffic + Conversion = Sales. That’s it. Expanded for effect it would be Targeted Traffic (people) + Conversion(people purchasing) = Sales (money).

So, first things first, get traffic to your offer. But not just any old traffic…we want it to be “targeted”. What that means is that the people coming are people who are likely to be interested in what you have to offer.

People can be “sorted” by the search terms they type in. Ingenious, isn’t it?

There are lots of ways to generate traffic but pay-per-click advertising is one of the fastest and one of the best for a couple of reasons that we’ll cover here.

Two of the most important reasons are that your visitors will be “targeted traffic” and you’ll only pay when they click and arrive at your offer!

Here’s how it works. Let’s say you have a web page with an offer on it selling free movie downloads. Automatically, one of your major keywords is “free movie downloads”.

So you go into your PPC area, and write an ad. They are little four line classified type ads and the last line of the ad is the URL you want them to go to.

Now, Google is the king of PPC and, since they are all about relevancy (the art of bringing up good search results when someone types in a keyword) Google wants relevancy for it’s sponsored ads, too. Hence the marriage of your ad and your chosen keywords.

You’d write an ad that looks like a four line classified ad with copy like this …

Free Movie Downloads/ Download Any Movie You Want Forever/ For A Small One Time Fee/ USAFreeMovieDownloads.com

You’d put the ad into an ad group with your chosen keywords at your chosen price (bid).

Let’s say you picked the keyword “free movie downloads” and agreed to pay (bid) $1 every time someone clicks on your ad and, subsequently went to your offer.

Warning: I inadvertently sent 1700 people (clicks) to a 404 error page instead of my offer due to a typo. It cost me about a thousand bucks. I don’t do that anymore.

So you turn the campaign on and start watching. The fun can begin in just a few minutes!

If you make $30 every time someone buys your offer at your web page, and you are paying one dollar per visit (click) when someone types in “free movie downloads” there is a certain ratio you are looking for.

Essentially, to be profitable, you have to pay LESS than $30 to get a sale because that’s what you MAKE on a sale. More ideally you want to pay $15 to get the $30 profit.

These little sponsored search ads are responsible for billions of dollars in highly targeted traffic and sales.

And really, doesn’t it just seem likely that someone who typed in your chosen keyword and clicked on your ad and was then transported to your offer on your web page would probably buy? Yes, it does to me, too.

You can bet on it. In fact, that’s exactly what you are doing, but they don’t call it gambling. They call it advertising. That’s business. By Riley West in Advertising

When you search on Google, you’ll no doubt notice the sponsored links on the right hand side of the page. These are examples of Adwords. These text ads, sometimes also found over the top of the natural search results, are advertisements from companies that pay for each click through to their website or landing page. These ads are keyword specific and help match searches for certain products and services with companies that can provide them.

If for example, you’re selling beauty products and have signed up with Google Adwords, your text ad will be seen in the sponsored links section when a surfer uses the search terms beauty treatments’, beauty products’, or whatever keywords you’ve selected - (multiple word and highly specific keyword phrases always work best). In this way, you advertise directly to those people who are already interested in (and actively searching for) what you’re offering. It’s a great way to build your business.

In essence, if you want more highly targeted traffic driven straight to your website, Google Adwords is one of the most effective tools available on the Internet today. Just by clicking your ad, the surfer will be funnelled to your landing page to make a direct purchase, get in contact with you or request contact from you. You pay a fixed amount per click to a pre-set daily budget, and the system proves to be a very convenient way to sell your products or services online. With a bit of experimentation, just a few keywords can make you a healthy profit.

Now, you’re probably wondering how to get started. First, you need to sign up for a free Google Adwords account. Then you have to choose the keywords that are relevant to your type of business and customer. Google itself can help you with this, and has a number of tools that not only suggest the keywords to use for your industry, but how many people search for them and how much they cost.

The next stage in the process is to write your ad. It’s important here to use your chosen keywords in the title of your ad, and make the body copy as punchy and benefits driven as possible within the allowed word count. This takes some practice, and it helps to split test different ads to see which ones work best. After you publish your ad, Google will only charge you if someone clicks on it, and will stop charging when your pre-set budget is reached. For example, you can set a maximum of ten pence per click, with a daily budget of 5.00, and so on. The tools mentioned above are particularly helpful in determining the level at which your budget should be set.

On top of all this, Google Adwords can also make your ads appear only to surfers located in a particular city or region of your choice. So, if you’re offering loans to residents of Manchester, for example, you can set your ads to show exclusively to surfers in this area. This makes targeting even more effective, meaning leads coming to your site are extremely well qualified. And when you understand a bit more about how it all works, there are also tools to help you monitor and improve your return on investment too.

Google Adwords has helped many online businesses grow very quickly. With this cost-effective marketing tool, not only will your web traffic increase, but your sales volume will grow as well. Like never before, Google Adwords enables you to advertise to potential customers at precisely the right time and place. Such laser targeting will revolutionise the way you do business.

You should try to make the dream a reality. One of the problems with PPC advertising is that it becomes a kind of crutch. Overnight you can get a top ten search result for a search—a great result with relatively little work, just cost. What happens is that site owners rely too heavily on PPC campaigns and don’t focus enough energy on organic search results. Imagine if your business was in the top ten of both the sponsored and standard search results: you’ll have twice the visibility.

If you have a high ranking via organic search results two things have happened: you have a number of backlinks to your site and your site has been optimized via content for that search phrase. Other things affect search engine rankings, but these are the two basic ones. The second issue is supremely important because it means you are providing a content-rich site for new web surfers. Content is not just a way to rank high in the search engines but a way to create an impressive site that will inspire repeat visitors. The results are two-fold.

There are some other very important issues at stake. In Google, for one, organic search results are much larger and more immediate than sponsored results, which are off to the side. Web surfers very often look to organic search results first. The quality of sites using sponsored results is also waning, almost to the point that these sites seem like spam. The longer this continues, the more people will click on organic results before sponsored results.

In the early going, web surfers were not savvy enough to realize that sponsored results were a PPC marketing effort. This is less true today. The thinking is that if a site lands in the top ten without having to pay for it, they must be the best resource on the topic. Finally, another issue is that pay-per-click bidding costs are on the rise. It makes just as much sense to hire a content-writing firm to create pages of new content for the site, and optimize that content for search engines, as it does to invest in PPC.
