From the 2005 to present many successful Blogs have risen in the blogging business from the likes of Mashable, Huffpost and Techcrunch which have been making tons in revenue from different sources like Advertising, products and many other sources that can be used to make money online, We have seen small blogs turning into multi million dollar blogs within months which has made us to do some important research on different money making strategies that are being used by these Bloggers and how much effort do they put into making millions from Blogging.

The Purpose of Blogging
Blogging has been recognized as the way of making money which is false because the very first thing matters in the love for the niche you are blogging about which will boost the traffic volume of your site, then more money can be made from the site.
Blogging should not be considered a get rich quick way because you will really get disappointed by the results because as a blogger the very first thing to aim for is "Getting Readers Satisfied With Your Blog" and the you can focus on profit.

Most of the Big Blogging giants were started by individual bloggers blogging with an aim to share their knowledge and love for a certain niche until their influence improved upon their niche coverting into brands, running a big blog needs innovation and needs the blogger to seperate himself/herself by being unique, making themselves the readers first choice.

What inspired them to Blogging success
To match up with media giants needs a lot of commitment which can simple be done by getting your blog updated more frequently and also by responding to the readers needs as the author and Administrator. As a Blogger you really need to fill up the gap between you an the readers, you need to create a special bond which will make your blog iresistable to them.
If a certain label/tag on your Blog has most pageviews then that should ring some bells meaning that your blog readers love that tag and you should always try to get it posts updated more often to keep close to your blog.

Looking at Big blogs that make tons of money online you will get to see amazing strategies that you may have never thought about as I will be sharing the secret revenue strategies of the likes of Mashable as one of the blogs with a Current market value of $300 Million and yet this Blog is 10 years old. The had already became an empire in eight months after being founded  by Pete Cashmore in 2005 and within 8 months he was able to high another writer to keep his blog moving.

• Direct Advertising
Direct Advertising is the form of Advertising done by selling Advertising space directly to the readers, it is used by almost every big blog to generate an income for the Blog, this type of advertising does not require any participation of third parties but it is between the advertiser and the customer.

• Sponsored Posts and Reviews
Sponsored posts and reviews are know as paid posts which can either be written by the client or the blogger, the minimum price for these posts is $50 for blogs that get less than 500 daily pageviews, and for bigger blogs the price can be an over $4000 per post published.

• Products and Services
As a Blogger, you have to sell something atleast to your readers and clients. You can sell anything from any niche and make money simply by doing that and I will guarantee you an income. Most Big Blogs are known for the products and services that they sell but that does not mean that you must violate the pride of your blog and fill it with products because will really chase the blog customers.

• Webinars and Podcasts
Webinars are Interactive seminars that happen online to a live audience, these seminars are simply the best as they can boost the income made by over $45,000 per webinar for a blog that has 10,000 email subscribers.

Conclusion
There is quite a huge number of ways that may be used to make money online, which shows the great possibilities to online monetization. Another blogger I knon Jon Marrow makes a minimum of $100,000 per month without selling Ads but by applying different methods of monetization.

How is Facebook costing Hardware Companies

The Hardware market has lost over $140 Billion due to facebook and other software giants like Apple, Android and Samsung as they have made technology accessable to everybody at no cost.

Facebook started as a small site which was intended for Hollard students by Mark Zuckerburg who is currently the company CEO, and later grew into a multimillion dollar company which has billions of online active users which has made Facebook a company that has data centers around the that are to the worth of $141 Billion and the company is believed to experience more growth in the upcomming 10 years as they have introduced facebook Ads are the driving force to its revenue.

This improvements by facebook has made it easier for people to access big computers and to look their designs and customize them with having to pay any fee.

This huge infrastructural services by facebook of creating data centers which are the main servers behind the company services are the backbone of facebook. This idea came up with  Jonathan Heiliger one of the most leading members in the Facebook infrastructure team who came up together with OCP .

What is a data Center?

A data center is a huge warehouse like building filled with thousands and thousands of computer servers  which used by website that carry over the site main data.

These servers are  used to host websites and domain names, usaully served by hosting companies like Hostgator in which most companies get to host their websites on dedicated servers. Big sites such as Google, Microsoft, Facebook and Linux have their own servers.

The computers that are used by Facebook are under the name Facebook as the company has its first data center created in 2011 and know they have data centers in both Europe and USA which are the main hosts of every data stored and shared on facebook which will include media files and text messages.

How does it affect the hardware market

The hardware market is believed to be affected in the next decade after the launch of its OCP which was much based on building and managing data centers which made software to be free to use without having to pay huge costs.

This move has affected huge hardware companies like Blackberry as they provided software at a price, Linux a well known tech giant is planning to build data centers which will bring free high quality software without having to pay any monthly fees.

These upgrades done by tech companies have caused many tech giants like Nokia, Blackberry and  to drop in sales, and it is believed it will bring more damage to the hardware market.

We would really like to hear from you about your opinions towards the $140 Billion hardware market.

How to Rank in Search Engines without SEO

There are many unoptimized sites that rank well in the search engines without any optimization, these site are not interested in submitting sitemaps, meta descriptions, tags and all the necessary parts of search engine optimization.

As I began blogging I always read a lot of posts on search engine optimization which showed the potential of optimized blog posts and at the other hand I came across a post in which the author had stated that 'blogs do not necessarily need optimization but quality content which is the main part that search engines are to look for when approaching any site on the internet for indexing' , this statement really brought an improvement to my blogging because it helped me to create quality posts from the start of my blogging journey which has helped Ajaxsurf to become the big blogging giant it is today. I will really motivate bloggers not to focus very much on SEO but should atleast include some optimization procedures which are essential for boosting the site rank.

 

Do Search Engines Hate SEO?

this Is the question asked by many bloggers concerning the Term Search Engine Optimization as many sites on the internet have been banned from search engines due to their excessive use of keywords, link parties and all the other SEO practices intended to manipulate the search bots.

Over the past years Google has created algorithms which were used to improve the quality of search results and basically to fight web spam which has been done to improve user experience.

• The Age of the Blog

The age of a site plays very good role in helping a site to rank well in the search engines. Irrespective of how many backlinks a site has but with a good age the site will definately stand a very good chance of ranking better than sites with tons of linking and backlinks.

Apart from that the domain age is considered as a ranking factor by Google, Bing and the other search engines which means that veterian sites are the kings of the search.

If there was a way of changing the age of a site I would have told you even though I have tried before to get this advantage by scheduling a post to a couple of years older which did not happen as expected, which means that you cannot speed up the domain age but the only way that will work for you is simply having to wait and focus on the development of your site.

• The Content Quality

The Site Quality is better than content quantity because search engines hate low quality posts and they use an algorithm which causes low quality sites to rank very low in the search results. This Algorithm is known as the Panda Algorithm which regulates the content on the search results to it desirable positions.

Must read : Blogging Advise from Techcrunch founder Michael Arrington

The best way you can use to improve your site content is simply by reducing the bounce rate of the site by adding a couple of widgets that will keep the site readers busy, these widgets may be the popular posts widget, Recent posts widget, Random posts widget, related posts widget which is usaully under the post content and many other possible widgets to increase the user activity of the site whereby reducing the bounce rate.

The quality of content is not dependant on the site optimization as many sites online rank well without having to work hard because search engines are probably looking for sites with the best content because they are also in competition just as many websites are on the internet.

• Click-through Rate

The click through rate is the percentage of how many times do users click on your blog listing on the search engines results, the more the users clicks on your post the more your site will have to rank higher on the search results. This is why you have to write attractive posts titles, meta descriptions that will influence more clicks into your site increasing the click-through rate of your site.

There are very chicky bloggers out there who can write poor quality content and then they Use very attractive title tags and meta descriptions to lead readers into clicking on their post content which will cause an increase on the click-through rate. With this intellegence by webmasters which can easily manipulate the search engines, the bounce rate was taken into consideration to see how much quality a certain post has compared to other posts. A site that has a low bounce rate is likely to have high quality content and a site that has a high bounce rate probably has low quality content.

• Number of quality sites linking

The backlinking of a site plays a great role in Helping it rank well in the search engines, many bloggers think that having a huge number of backlinks will help them rank well which is quite not true because backlinks get more powerful only if they are from high authority sites and directories, which means that it is not every link that will help you rank better but it is the quality of the linking site that will increase your site potential in search rankings.

• The growth rate of the site

The other part that is taken by search engines to rank a site the growth rate of the site. Sites that grow faster are usaully believed to be created by blogging professionals who are very much experienced in blogging and these sites are very respected by search and are considered to be of high content due to their fast growth, and that is the reason many successful bloggers will motivate you to focus on improving your site instead of whooping around the internet trying to get backlinks.

As a blogger I believe that the only way to improve a site growth is just by improving its quality of posts.

Conclusion

You do not necessarily need a lot of contribution to Search Engine Optimization to improve a site rank in the search engines. I  have Seen many huge sites link wikipedia and other sites ranking well without any optimization.

I would recommend that your blog should not only be too focussed on search engine optimization but should also focus on user satisfaction and site improvement, SEO is good but too much of it will damage your blog reputation.
