May Day News from Liz-e-Biz

I've been very busy processing articles for Michael Russell of MPAM this last month, which reminded me to say something on that subject.

Don't forget that apart from Traffic Exchanges, an Affiliate Program, the 20 Steps program which teaches how to build a profitable website and various other income streams, you can earn money writing quality articles. If you have a talent for writing and would like a regular income, this could be the one for you.

There are a wide variety of topics on which we are accepting articles, which are interesting, informative and well-written.

This month's news on the Traffic Exchanges:

Regretably eMarket Traffic has closed

Jack Schafer has taken over admin at Click Crazey. Welcome Jack! In fact, Jack is already owner of Hitpirate who have recently changed their surfbar to reflect the "Pirate" theme.

TS25 has changed its syndicate structure and much else besides. The changes are too lengthy to give detail here so join up or log in to check it all out.

This month I have added the following articles:

Writing Articles - Why Do It? by Liz Canham

Anyone with a business presence online wants and needs to attract visitors to their website and not just any old visitors at that. We need quality, targeted, visitors, people who are genuinely interested in what we have to offer, not just tyre-kickers. The problem is, how do we attract these quality, niche focused people in any numbers?

Website Creation - Some Simple Rules by Liz Canham

Your Template

Choose your page design, decide on your main page links and everything like your photo, contact details, search boxes, etc. which will appear on every page. It is well worth taking your time over this so that you can create a template which will be the basis of every page. If you keep adding things later, it will mean changing all the pages that you have already created (trust me on this - I've been there!).

News from Liz-e-Biz

As you know, MPAM is my favourite internet program, but I don’t think I’ve told you about the Traffic Arbitrage or Advertising Brokerage Co-Op as it is known now.

The concept is simple, but the execution not so simple. Basically the profits come from advertising revenue generated by visitors to a large number of keyword rich sites which consistently have their content updated. This is not something that is recommended to the individual because you need a very large number of websites and the amount of experimentation with keywords and search terms is huge.

The performance of the January Advertising Brokerage Co-Op was excellent. On a purchase of four $25 the profit was $9.60 /share, a total of $38.40 or 38.4% if you prefer - pretty good, either way.

Michael Russell, the MPAM owner, doesn't expect the February Advertising Brokerage Co-Op to do quite as well mainly due to the fact that its a short month and he sold more shares than in January. As a result he has reduced the number of shares for the April Co-Op.

For those of you who are interested, the April Advertising Brokerage Co-Op goes on sale 16th March and is only open to MPAM members.

Advertising Brokerage Co-Op Disclaimer: Past performance is not a guarantee of future performance, and we do not make ANY guarantee on your return in any given month. It is most important that you understand that this is NOT an investment, you are purchasing a non-refundable membership in a limited time co-op that is involved in buying and selling advertising. There is NO guarantee made of any return whatsoever.

For those of you who haven't seen it and are interested in knowing which Traffic Exchanges are worth joining (my opinion only), take a look at my free report.

This month's news on the Traffic Exchanges:

Hit Pirate admin has changed the surf timer from 20 seconds to 10 seconds.

This is a perfectly reasonable thing to do because, in the main, if your page hasn't attracted someone's attention within 10 seconds, it probably won't.

Club Click is doing so well that the owner is experiementing with an increase in the surf ratio from 2:1 to 4:3. This may only be temporary so watch this space.

The traffic exchanges are also trying to encourage the use of "splash" pages which are fast loading, so watch out if you use the exchanges, a reduced timer won't give time for a slow-loading page to even be seen.

Here are the new articles which I've added at Liz-e-Biz.com.


Give It Time
by Dr. John C. Maxwell

Merging on to a crowded expressway can unnerve even the calmest driver. Despite the stress, most of us just check our mirror and cautiously forge ahead, hoping that the hole we're shooting for remains open until our vehicle has safely entered the highway. We obey the yield sign on the on ramp, but we keep moving.

If you are lucky enough to have your email opened and your introduction has grabbed the attention of your reader, you still need to make the rest of your message sufficiently interesting for someone to read to the end.
