Why tracking your traffic and earnings with Google Analytics is CRUCIAL!

If you have developed a portfolio of websites and they are starting to grow in traffic and earnings, but you don’t have Google Analytics installed on those websites, you are cutting yourself short of A LOT of easy money. Why?

Mainly because tracking tells you some extremely important metrics that (when used correctly) can help you focus your efforts in the right places:

1. What keywords your websites are ranking for in Google.

2. What the most popular websites and posts in your portfolio are.

3. What the highest earnings per visitor websites and posts in your portfolio are.

Using your Google Analytics and analyzing these metrics to develop a plan of attack are what bring $1,000/month earners to $5,000/month earners, and MUCH faster than in your beginning phase. Why?

When you first develop your portfolio, you will be building websites based on research from the Google Keyword Tool and PageRank of competing sites. These are all estimates of how much you’ll make and how your websites will perform. This is a great way to start, but it is not nearly as useful as the data you will get from your Google Analytics.

The first part of the approach is a blanket approach: make a bunch of websites with a bunch of different pages targeting different keywords and then see what sticks. Once you have your Google Analytics data, you can target the places that Google naturally likes. Once you focus your efforts on those areas, your income will start to increase exponentially.

For example, if you have a post that is ranking at spot #6 for a certain keyword and getting most of your traffic for a website, imagine how your numbers will increase when you hit #1 for that keyword! Remember, a spot #6 ranking is getting less than 5% of search traffic. If you get that post to #1, you will get 42%! That is NINE times more earnings. That is the post you want to focus on (since Google naturally liked it more than the other posts on that website). That is the kind of thing you can do with data from Google Analytics that you wouldn’t have otherwise.

Once you start shifting your efforts in the direction your Google Analytics data leads you, that is when your portfolio will start to take a life of its own, and your earnings will increase while your efforts can decrease. This is because as a website gains momentum, it will gain a lot of natural links you don’t have to work for.

I have met other Internet Entrepreneurs who haven’t used tracking and I just don’t get it. SO MUCH MONEY IS LEFT ON THE TABLE!

First thing you need to learn is how to make a blog.

After that, installation of Google Analytics is easy, and honestly, it’s quite fun analyzing the performance of your websites. Here is a video lesson on How to Install Google Adsense and Google Analytics.

The How’s and Why’s of Bankruptcy

GuestPoster — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 22:58:59 +0000

Bankruptcy is a last resort measure taken by a person to protect most of his or her assets from being seized by debtors who are owed money that the borrower has no foreseeable means to repay. Bankruptcy is the legal right of the borrower to declare him or herself incapable of repaying lenders. Are you asking yourself, “How to file for bankruptcy?” Well, there exist several ways to declare bankruptcy and the common bankruptcy chapters involved in doing so are chapters seven, eleven, and thirteen.

When these chapters are disambiguated, one will find that chapters eleven and thirteen differ from chapter seven in that, chapter seven primarily deals with a liquidation process that is governed by United States bankruptcy laws. Chapters Eleven and Thirteen primarily deal with debtor reorganization. Chapter Seven bankruptcy prevails as being the most customary form of filing for bankruptcy in the U.S.

It may be a wise decision, when filing for bankruptcy, to hire an attorney who specializes in bankruptcy law, because the bankruptcy procedure is lengthy and complex. However, if you can not afford an attorney, do not let that dissuade you from filing for bankruptcy protection, as there are many forms of literature and even do it yourself bankruptcy software that can help guide you through this process.

Be certain though, before filing for bankruptcy protection, that bankruptcy is your one and only reprieve. Because after you file for chapter 7 bankruptcy, it will stay in your credit history for ten years. Bankruptcy is good and bad in this way: Filing for bankruptcy can be a great relief to you and your loved ones, however, it will also tarnish your credit history for a decade, which is a mighty long time when one considers all the financial challenges that may surface in the ten years following the bankruptcy filing. If you do have to file for bankruptcy, you may be relieved to know that you are not alone, in 2009 alone over a million and a half people and corporations filed for bankruptcy.

Easy Ways to Improve Your FICO Score

Business Charter Jets

Corporate jet ownership is a huge deal for many companies, but unfortunately, a lot of operations cannot afford to finance an aircraft, but instead, must rely on the services of a business charter jet company to help them move around, from meeting to meeting. There are pros, and cons to a business jet charter, that compare against owning a jet.

Pros Involved With Business Jet Charters

First, there are much lower costs involved, with charter business jets, compared to financing a plane. Maintaining a jet, fueling, and storing it can be incredibly expensive, and without liquid assets available to cover these costs each month, business charter jet costs will save you a lot of money.

Next, you no longer have to deal with security hassles. After September 11th, public sector airports have tightened down security to make it a complete hassle to even enter into the building. After hours of checking your luggage, and then dealing with security to get to your terminal, you are often incredibly tired. Business charter jets do away with these hassles.

You will also not have an interest rate, and looming debt hanging over your company. The price of owning a jet is incredibly expensive, and financing one, especially with adjustable rate loans, is incredibly risky. If your business is solid, you will have no worries. However, if your company is in the ground floor, you will save yourself a lot of money in the long term, by simply chartering a jet, over purchasing one.

One of the best pros of entering into a charter jet service, is that you get to travel in luxury, and increase your corporate branding. Even the finest 1st class public transportation seating cannot compare to the luxury offered with having a business charter jet pilot taking you around the world. When you are lining up new clients, you get to create an incredibly powerful image, by meeting them in your private jet.

There Are A Few Cons To A Business Charter Jet, Though..

First, you don’t own the aircraft. This means, that if you are ever in need of large amounts of money, you will not have the capitol available to you, and that you are also giving your money away, for an incredibly long time. For long term investments, you really must consider aircraft financning, over chartering a jet.

The prices associated with business charter jet travel is typically higher than public sector travel. Even though the hassles are incredibly decreased, the costs associated with hiring a charter company is still substantially higher than purchasing public transportation tickets.

Lastly, you have to understand, that some programs offer their jets as being “subject to availability”. This means, that if you are in a rush, your jet may not be available to you. You have to make sure, before you enter into a contract with a charter company, that you have gone over their stipulations, and have made sure that a plane will be available when you need one.

Corporate jet ownership is a huge deal for many companies, but unfortunately, a lot of operations cannot afford to aircraft financing, but instead, must rely on the services of a business charter jet company to help them move around, from meeting to meeting. There are pros and cons to a business jet charter instead of investing in private jets for sale.
