Buying and Selling ads a new program

Buying and selling ads without the middleman

When selling link and text ads on your site you have 2 options sell ads privately or use an agency such as linkworth, textlink ads or PPP. Their are benefits too both ways of selling advertising space on your website.

Benefits of using a middleman

Using an agency or middleman means you don't have the hassles of trying to find advertisers, telling them about your site, negotiating the price and then looking after them when they keep emailing you to say their links aren't there and THEY ARE THERE.

Ad Agencies

Selling ads using a middle man means you might have to sell them slightly cheaper, all publishers sell ads at a slightly lower price to agencies even large newspapers and TV Channels they don't have the costs involved with trying to find ad buyers. Rupert Murdoch would sell you an ad cheaper if you were an agency.

Ways to make your site rank better with links

Ways to make your website or blog rank Better

This week on Financial Independence is going to be entrepreneurial week, you may have I noticed I forwarded on the SEO Project URL.
I did this because I wanted to concentrate all my energies on One site, running Two sites is hard work and I thought as this site is already running it would be better to keep it. To mark the death of SEO Project, start entrepreneurial week and show I do know a bit about SEO this week I am going to share all the ways I know to make your website or blog rank better.
I am going to write about a different part of SEO everyday this week starting with Links.
Incoming Link's
Incoming Link popularity is in most peoples opinion the most important part of search engine optimisation, the best type of link is a one way link to your website from relevant site's.
This bits a Stubsy rant - NOT A SUGGESTION

Blog Traffic Generator

If you own a blog you probably want visitors, getting visitors to your site and building links is hard work.

Lord Matt has come up with an idea which I like, I think it could be a good traffic source and a good bit of blog promotion for Financial Independence.

Whats it all about?

So what is the great blog promotion idea? Spike Club instead of exchange reviews with other blogs which lets be honest is getting boring. What Lord Matt's sugesting is... well heres a snippet from Lord Matts site.

"So I give you Spike Club.

Each week on spike day (plus or minus 24 hours for people like me who forget) all members of spike club will review the candidates site. The candidate will post the best post they can come up with a nice open ended topic so as to start a conversation.

With any luck the topic will run for the rest of the week (or longer).

...at which point it will be time to do it all again.
