Regardless of who you are or where you live, everyone gets
the same 24 hours each day to do what it is you do.

If this is the case, why is it then that some people seem
to be able to get more done in those same 24 hours than
what ohers can?

Maybe they have some mystical supernatural powers? Or
maybe they work harder than most?

This may be true in the movies, but in real life it’s rarely the
case. The secret to getting more done without necessarily
working harder is proper time management.

Time management allows you to get more done with less
effort. It also helps reduce the stress and pressure that
goes hand-in-hand with having to finish multiple jobs at
the same time. And this is even more important if you are
trying to manage your online business while still working
your day job.

If you truly are desperate to juggle all your responsibilities
without having to sacrifice too much of the limited time you
get to spend with your family or loved ones, then here are s
ome tips and techniques to help you on your way:

1. Keep notes

Notebooks and mini-recorders are very effective tools for
organizing your day. Some of the best time managers have a
handy notebook in tow in which they are able to keep track
of the day and the things they need to do.

As the world becomes increasingly technology-based, more
and more mobile organizers are becoming available. These
organizers help you schedule appointments and duties and
make keeping appointments a snap.

These are also good productivity tools. You never know
when a good idea could hit you. So if you are constantly
armed with pen and paper - or an organizer for that
matter - you are in a better position to capture the idea
and put it in motion.

The fatal mistake most people commit is to think that they
can delegate all the organizing and note-taking to memory.
Unfortunately, just like you have forgotten what you
dreamt about last night, you are bound to forget whatever
idea you whipped up a few days ago.

This is where Mini-recorders are especially useful. I find
it very handy to keep a recorder in my car so that when I
come up with a brainwave about a new idea, I just record my
thoughts so that I don’t forget. Then I can transcribe my
thoughts at my leisure.

2. Modularize

The best way to deal with multiple major problems is to
divide and conquer. If you feel that a problem is too big to
handle, then it probably is. Instead of buckling under the
pressure, the best thing to do is to cut up the problem into
more manageable parts and deal with them separately.

After making the problem more manageable, you can then
allocate resources such as schedule, finances and effort
towards accomplishing the project.

For example, rather giving yourself a headache about how
you’re going to build multiple streams of income, develop
a realistic step-by-step plan and then just concentrate on
one step at a time to build your online income.

3. Delegate

Another way to manage your time wisely is to delegate some
jobs to other people and making sure that everyone works in
sync. This will take a lot of communication, skill, and effort -
but ultimately it is the only way to accomplish anything that
may be too large for one person.

This part of your online business is imperative if you’re
goal is to earn a REAL income. You simple can’t do everything
yourself, so you need to outsource various parts of your
business. Rather than do everything yourself, your role
should be to supervise these tasks and then fit the pieces
of the puzzle together as each task is completed.

Time management is no easy task. However, you should
realize that the you spend time planning and managing your
use of time, the more time you will have to enjoy your
rewards.

Have a great week

The 60 Second Weekly Tip…

There are a number of methods of generating an online
income. One such method is monetizing content sites by
selling your own or affiliate products or services, adding
Adsense to your pages or selling advertising space etc.

How much you can earn using this method will depend on how
much effort you put into building each site - but the
benchmark you should initially be aiming for is $30 per day
per site.

While this may not sound much by itself, if you can build
just 10 sites you will be grossing $300 per day - which is
not a too shabby!

Now it takes time to build and promote each sites. And not
all your sites will be instant hits first up. So you need
to understand taht you’re not going to be able to start
earning this kind of income within a few weeks. But it can
be done!

The trick is to break down your goal into smaller chunks.
Doing this makes it seem much less daunting and removes the
stress out of thinking you have to build 100 sites to make
a decent income.

All you need to do is simply build one site per week for
the next 10 weeks and you will be well on your way to
achieving your goal.

Each week you need to be focused to research your
affiliate products, create an autoresponder series or
newsletter, design the site itself and find content to
place on your site to act as fodder for the search engines.

You just need to place one foot in front of the other and
take the time to learn how to create effective and
informative content sites.

Then it’s just a matter of marketing your sites to begin
driving traffic to each of them through the use of unique
articles, blog post, linking programs, etc. While this may
sound complicated and time consuming, it’s not.

All you need to is outsource these tasks to get someone to
do them for you. Yes it will cost you money. But the secret
to ramping up your income is to write little checks and get
bigger ones in return. Read the Outsourcing Survival Kit for
step-by-sept instructions and pre-written material to hire
freelancers.

Remember, you only have to make a modest $30 per day per
site to hit your first income goal. So all you need do is
make one sale of your product and get a few Adsense
clicks in a medium paying niche market and you’ve reached
your target.

Listen, I’m not saying it will be easy. Initially it will
be hard work researching and setting up your sites. But if
you are motivated and prepared to go the extra mile, it’s
only a matter of time before you start to achieve your
goal of $30 a day.

And if you think this is insignificant, $30 a day equates
to over $100,000 per year gross income!

So think about this when you get tired, bored and you
don’t want to learn anything new about building effective
content sites.

Put forth the effort and I assure you that you will see
results. All it takes is focus, being organized and being
willing to learn what you need to learn to bring in $30 per
site per day.

A Paint-by-Numbers Checklist For Writing Articles!

If you’ve ever written an article, you’ve probably felt
overwhelmed by a blank sensation - not knowing where to
start.

…I’ll bet you have!

This is one of the biggest reasons why most people simply
don’t write articles. They just simply don’t know where to
start.

If you’ve been in this situation, here’s a checklist that
should help you eliminate some of the most common problems
in writing articles so that you can ramp up your online
business to the next level:

1. Have a specific purpose in mind.

Always have a specific purpose in mind before you begin
writing. You should be crystal clear about what are you
hoping to accomplish by writing your article. Is it an
article solving a problem for your customers, to attract
prospects and build your list, to improve your link
popularity for your website or to make a sale?

2. Know your target audience.

Before writing an article, conduct research on your target
audience. What your chosen topic? What pain or problem do
they face or try to avoid?

3. Develop a detailed outline that stress the benefits.

Now that you have a purpose and a target, organize your
article so that scanning it quickly will show immediately
to your reader how they will benefit from it and what are
the most important points.

4. Stop your reader in his tracks with your title.

Your title should grab the reader’s attention and ‘force’
him to read your first paragraph. Using your most important
benefit usually does it. Your title should also contain
keywords that are highly related to your content.

5. Start your article with the most important benefit.

Again, do not keep your most important information for the
conclusion. You need to give it up immediately to grab your
readers attention and then further expand on this in the
following paragraphs.

6. Keep your sentences simple and short.

If possible, avoid jargon that may confuse your readers.
In other words, write your article and keep it simple so
that even a child can understand it. Using short and simple
sentences will allow a fluid and easy reading, preventing
your reader from getting bored.

7. Make your article warm and personal.

Speak direct to the reader and in a tone as if you were
talking face to face with a friend. Use a lot of ‘you’
and very little “I or me”. Reading your article, the
reader should feel warmth and empathy, knowing that you
have the same problems and goals than him.

8. Spend more time rewriting than writing.

Besides formatting your article for easy reading, be sure
to use spellcheck tools or an external editor to
carefully proofread your writing for grammatical and
spelling errors.

Remember that the more writing you do, the better you will
get. Believe me, there will come a time when article
writing will not seem as difficult as it may be now and
you will be kicking yourself for not going it earlier.

Or, of course, you can use PLR articles, but remember to alter
the content and make them unique with Secret Article Converter,
an affordable resource for any article site.

Using Keywords to Gain Higher Search Engine Placement!

Optimization your web pages for the search engines is the
first task you should do as an internet marketer.

While search engine optimization can be a complicated and
time consuming task - and well outside the scope of this
topic - getting the basics right puts you in a much
better position compared to doing nothing at all.

The easiest place to start is learning how to use your
keywords and keywords phrases for optimal effectiveness to
give yourself a chance of getting a high search engine
placement for a range of niche keywords.

To do this you need to optimize highly related, but
different, keywords and/or keyword phrases on each page of
your website.

To get you on the right track, here are the most
successful methods of using your keywords for maximum
benefit.

Title Tag:

- Use keywords and/or keyword phrases as a descriptive
title for each page.

- Use your most relevant keywords and/or keyword phrases
in your home page title.

- To be most effective, title tags should contain
keywords and/or keyword phrases with some related
qualifiers.

- Repeat the keywords and/or keyword phrases if needed,
but make sure that the title makes sense. An example for
this page would be: Keyword Usage, Using Keywords and
Keyword Phrases Effectively.

Meta Tag Keywords:

- Place all relevant keywords and keyword phrases in your
meta tag.

- If possible, avoid using single keywords as they are
too broad and may be too competitive. Use multiple keyword
phrases of at least 2 or 3 words instead.

- Don’t repeat your keywords more than 2-3 times so as to
avoid offending some search engines.

- Separate keywords and keyword phrases with commas or
spaces, not both. Example: keyword,keyword phrase,keyword -
or - keyword keyword phrase keyword.

- Use common misspellings - for exemaple, keywrod or
keywird.

- Use different forms of keywords whenever possible - for
example, web site and website.

- Use upper and lower case - for example, Website and
website.

Meta Tag Description:

- Use your keywords and keyword phrases in your meta tag
description.

- Repeat your most important keywords and/or keyword
phrases a minimum of 2-3 times.

- The total length of your description tag should be no
more than 20-25 words.

- Your description should make sense, as this is what
often shows up in the search engine results page. This is
your opportunity to persuade users to click through to your
site, so be sure your description is enticing and contains
keywords and/or keyword phrases that will attract visitors.

Page Body:

- Many search engines concentrate on the first 250 words
of your text when looking for keyword relevancy and density
so concentrate your keywords and/or keyword phrases there.

- Strive for 3-5% keyword density (3-5 keywords and/or
keyword phrases per 100 words of text). If your keyword
density is much higher than this, your copy may not make
sense AND the search engines may consider it keyword
spamming.

- Use your most important keywords and/or keyword phrases
throughout your copy, but without sounding repetitious.

- Use your most important keywords and/or keyword phrases
in your H1 tag. To give more weight to your H1 tag, use
only one H1 tags in your copy. (Your H1 tag should contain
your most important statement so you shouldn’t need to use
more than one H1 tag.)

- Use keywords and/or keyword phrases in your image ALT
tags. For example your logo ALT tag should say something
such as: ALT=”keyword image”.

META tags are not as important as they once were, as most
search engines are now searching your copy when looking for
keywords and/or keyword phrases. Therefore, it’s become
increasingly important to have the first 250 words of your
copy be keyword rich.

Sometimes, it may be better to write your content first,
then choose your keywords and/or keyword phrases from the
content.

Rewrite your content as needed, adding keywords and/or
keyword phrases that pertain to the theme of the content.
In this way you’ve chosen keywords and/or keyword phrases
that are relevant to your content, instead of trying to
write content to fit your keywords and/or keyword phrases.
