If you are a reviewer or critic you are likely to find work writing reviews of products and services on the Internet. This is quite a common offering however don’t expect to be reviewing anything ordinary. Usually the types of things that are offered up for review are insurance sites, credit products, Clickbank products and porn sites. Also you might find that this pays really low, unless you can add search engine content optimization to your skill set.

Most actual product descriptions that are done for the Internet are done in house. The same goes for catalogues. Yet the first thing that most writing gurus on the net will tell you is that there is tons of catalogue description work available on the net. In fact this is the type of work that you see the least of for freelancers on the auction sites – nowadays the SEO blog or article is replacing this type of Joe work.

Reviewing products on the Internet can pay even lower than other types of writing. Once again this only pays off if you can write quickly and do large amounts of reviews in bulk and if you know how to search engine optimize a product description. Of course it can also depend on the length of review that you are assigned. A 250-word blog type review might go for as low as a dollar each. A 1,000-word review goes for about 150 dollars or less. In fact the average price is about ten bucks each for a thousand-word review.

Of course if you are a prolific reviewer you can make money by reviewing products on the Internet and attaching affiliate product links to the format you are writing in. It is more profitable to simply open your own business rather than hire yourself out. Just make sure that you are writing a good review of whatever you are writing about especially if you are the SEO affiliate of the product.

Mostly everyone online is trying to learn how to start marketing their websites. Marketing websites can seem like a very tough thing to do. Many people have no clue how to market their websites. I think one of the main reasons people have trouble marketing their websites is because of the lack of the right information online currently.Many people are sadly misinformed about how to market their websites correctly. Many people are using marketing techniques which are highly ineffective and may end costing tons of money. Many people trying to make money online are duplicating failure. Many people are heavily marketing to classified ads, FFA’s, and other places which do not work at all. I will go over a couple of techniques to effectively start marketing your websites.

First you must decide if you are going to start marketing your websites online or offline. Both ways can be very effective and I would suggest using both. Offline marketing can tend to be a little more costly, so you will need some money to effectively start marketing your websites. One way to market your website offline is to buy drop cards. Drop cards are effective because you can drop them practically anywhere. Making a trip to the supermarket, drop a card. Making a trip to the bank, drop a card. Simple. Another way to effectively market offline is to buy ad space in major newspapers and major magazines. This can be very pricey, but it is also very effective. Offline marketing is often ignored but I would not suggest it. Offline marketing can be a powerful way for you to market your websites.

Online marketing can actually be very simple. In order for you to start marketing your websites effectively, you must be consistent and work these techniques daily. For instance writing articles and press releases can be a very effective, but you must write consistently. If you do not write consistently using articles and press releases to market your websites will not work. Writing one or two articles a month will not bring you the type of traffic you are looking for. In order to be truly effective with articles and press releases you must at least write one or two a week. The great thing about writing articles and press releases is it is completely free. You can write as many articles and press releases as you want and they will bring you great results. Remember the key to writing articles and press releases is to write them consistently. Another way to effectively market your website online is to post useful comments on forums and be sure to add your signature with your link.

The key to marketing your websites effectively is to be consistent in your marketing techniques. Any marketer worth his weight knows you must market on a daily basis in order to be fully effective. It takes at least 7 exposures for the average person to purchase something. When marketing your website being consistent is the name of the game.

I enjoy designing websites and have been doing so for the last 7 years. However, I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s best for me and the business if we only take on jobs that we find interesting.

There is just way too much time involved in designing a website and dealing with clients.

At this time I feel like there are two ways we could go with the business.

1. Streamline the business and figure out the fastest and easiest way to design websites. Use an assembly line approach and try to put out as many web designs per day as possible.

2. Become the elite in the web design business and build a name that we can proudly stand behind. Only take on clients that are serious about building a web presence.

Believe it or not I’ve spent a good bit of time considering the direction I want to go. While I am sure there is more money in the first choose, I enjoy what I do way too much to build an assembly line approach to what has become an art to me.

I enjoy playing with web designs and figuring out how to create them in such a way that they are able to both drive traffic and convert traffic. At this time in my life I am unwilling to trade money for what has become an art to me.

And it’s for this reason that we will be turning down more web design jobs then we will be taking from this moment forward.

I personally feel that this is in the best interest of me, Geeks on Steroids and my clients.

There are things that happen in life that make me stop and wonder what the heck these people are thinking.

The other day I was talking with another web design company, they wanted us to design a site for them. The salesman started pointing out some adult websites for me to take a look at. I asked if the site they were wanting designed was an adult website and he said no but needed me to look at these adult websites because from what he understood, adult websites had the ability to hold visitors longer then any other kind of website.

At first I thought he was kidding, I mean…people stay on adult websites because of the naked women. It’s not that adult web designers have found some type of magic key, men have been spending all their time thinking about sex and trying to see naked woman since Adam and Eve left the garden.

I guess there are times in life when you have to look beyond what you want to see and actually look at what is going on. People spend more time on adult websites than any other type of website not because of the website design but because of the naked women.

I find it sad that someone that is charging money to build websites is unable to understand how they work and why people spend time on them.

There are three types of websites;

1. Entertainment

2. Selling a Product or Service

3. Information

An information site as well as an entertainment site is designed to be sticky and keep the visitor on the site. However, a site that is selling a service or product needs to get the web visitor into the checkout process as quickly as possible.

A site that is designed to be sticky will not convert as well as a site that is designed to sell a product.

When spending lots of time on a site people become blind to banners and products and this is not good for a site.
