You can easily make funny video websites, and then profit from them nicely. Many people have done it and are actually making their living off it. Here’s how to make funny video websites and make money at it: 1. Getting a site. The first thing to making a funny video website is choosing a good name. Have some fun trying to think up catchy names for your website. A catchy, unique and memorable name is key to not only getting traffic but maintaining traffic.

2. Getting the videos.

You can easily lift videos from other popular video sites. But there are also sites that allow you access to many of the popular funny videos which you can use. Many sites share with one another videos as well. So getting the videos to supply for your funny video website is relative easy.

3. Making the Money.

Making money off your site is going to consist of different forms of income streams. From click on ad’s, banner advertising, and actual products which you can sell on your site and receive heavy commissions from.

Start up accounts at Google and yahoo for click on ad’s, and find internet products which will coincide with the type of videos you’ll be showing. Many internet products will have programs for webmasters which you can sign up for and immediately start promoting products on your site. Once your site develops traffic, you can start to hit up larger business’s for banner ad’s which can pay very well. The combination of different income streams will bring in a steady income flow as long as your traffic is ramped up.

4. Putting your site together.

There are specific programs you can get for building sites. They will take the headache of “coding” away, and have you setting up your site quickly and fairly easily. A good “make video website” book or manual will show you exactly what needs to be done and provide inside access to sources which can make things thousands of times easier.

I just got this FREE report on CPA (cost per action) marketing this morning.  This is a must read for any affiliate marketer, no matter if you are a rookie or seasoned veteran. You need to download and read this FREE report asap.

Why? Well, this report is packed with the same info that people typically pay up to $1000 for. I’m not kidding, he’s really giving away most of the “best stuff” in this report from his ground-breaking Pay Per Click Formula 1.0 course.

This is like the “Cliff Notes” from his $1000 PPC-to-CPA course.

Skeptical that this is another guru who gives you “useful but incomplete” info to “tease” you??? If so, then get the report and go immediately to page 65-74 where Gauther gives the best secrets from his original course on how to get super-cheap targeted clicks.

One of the techniques is called the “Alexa Method”, where you go to Alexa.com, find the highest-traffic sites for your offer and then bid in AdWords on those domains as keywords. Sounds wacky, but you’d be amazed how many searchers type a domain into Google search and how much cheap, targeted traffic you can get from this one strategy.

If you are doing anything PPC, CPA, ClickBank, or any type of affiliate marketing this is a must read. and I repeat it is ABSOULTELY FREE!

In part 1 of Free Web Tools I talked about some of the free tools I use to help with my online research.  I have located a few more very handy tools.  The tools I will list have limited free usage, but offer paid subscriptions.  I have not subscribed to any of these yet, but as soon as I start making money I probably will.

1. SpyFu
   • This site is unbeatable!  The competitive edge you can get from the information on this site is huge.  SpyFu enables customers to “spy” on their competitor’s online marketing campaigns, see which terms they advertise on, which terms they optimize their site for, how much they spend, and so much more. This tool is a must have before jumping into a PPC campaign.
2. ShareaSale.com
   • ShareaSale.com is a site for affiliate marketers.  Think Commission Junction or Link Share only better.  There are some tools I have fallen in love with like the “Make a page”, and the Deals database.  I will be talking about ShareaSale alot more in the future.
3. SEO Book
   • I can’t say enough about this site and the tools available.  SEO (search engine optimization) is a science now a days.  It seems you would need a PHD to get on the first page of Google.  Well not anymore SEO Book makes getting ranked easier.
   • Some of the tools I use the most from SEO Book are the
     • SEO Toolbar – I have installed this in Firefox and use it all the time.  It gives me insight to others and my own SEO.
     • SEO Keyword Density Tool – This is a handy tool to look at keyword frequency or to give ides for keywords from existing content.
     • Keyword tools – There are tons of keyword tools here.  Another one that I use on occassion is the misspelled keyword generator.  You input your keyword, and it spits out variations of common mis-spellings.
   • The amount of free tools on this site is ubelievable.  Almost as unbeleiveable as what they can do for your Page Rank.
4. Copy Scape
   • Original content will always be unique.  But you never know when you might find an article you will want to reprint on your own site.  CopyScape can tell you how many other locations on the web this same article is posted.  This can also be a handy tool to see if someone is “borrowing” content you worked hard creating.

There are tons of free tools available for affiliate online research. There are a few I am currently using.  Below I will tell you what I am using and how I am using it. If you have more tools, and know better ways to use the tools I am using please post it up in a comment.

1. Google Analytics
   • This tracking service is very handy.  You place the code snippet in your site, and it will report back, traffic, what page visitors land on, what page visitors exit from, how much time they spend on your site, and where they navigate to within your site.   It will also show what geographic location visitors come from, how they found you, either which search engine, or where the direct link came from, and what browser they are using and a lot more.
2. Google AdSense
   • If you have made it this far you should already know what Google AdSense is.  This is a program to advertise on your website without hassle.  You just paste a few lines of code into your site and sit back and watch the money come in (well sort of).  Google uses a PPC program (Pay per click).  Every time someone clicks on one of the ads on your site you earn a commission, a few cents to maybe  50 cents.  The ads are automatically tailored around ketywords found on your site.  The impressions, clicks, CTR and eCPM are tracked for you, and you can setup custom channels so you can determine which ad placements, or ads from different sites are making money.
3. Google Adwords
   • I am new to Google Adwords.  And advertising costs money.  So what I want to stress here is the tools sections in adwords.  There are a few things I use.
   • The keyword tool.  This free tool can analyze your site and suggest keywords, or you can type in key words.  It will the display how much search traffic these keywords generate, and the competition for these keywords.  I use the competitive information to determine if I will be able to display a good assortment of high paying ads on my site (PPC ads from AdSense).
   • Insight or Search – This is another handy research tool.  You input keywords, and it shows you where the searches are coming from and the volume over time.
4. Google Webmaster
   • This is basically a portal for submitting your site for the Google bat to crawl.  Alot of people think this is an inefficient way to get ranked, but I still determine is necessary.  There are tools to help find bad internal and external links, and  any meta data issues.  This tool will also analyze or generate a robots.txt file.
5. XML-Sitemaps.com
   • This handy tool is great for creating an XML sitemap for you. It supports up to 500 pages, which is enough for most, (definitely enough for me), and offers outputs for download in XML, compressed or uncompressed, html, text, and more. Just run the script and then upload to google. Whammo, you have a sitemap for your site.

Update:  part 2 is here.

The research is still going on.  In my what seems to be never ending quest for the right solution I came across this site.  I honestly am not sure of the actual commissions they give, but these guys make it easy to put up a content rich video game site.

Big Fish Games has a spectacular set of tools for affiliates. I signed up, downloaded the SGS (Satellite Game System), made some changes for my niche, added some ads, and was ready to go. I am not sure how effective this will be, or how popular my niche choice is, but it was too easy not to. Since by now you are all asking, Well what is the site so we can check it out? I have nothing to hide, so I set it up at http://www.games.cheesymeat.com and the niche is cooking games.

On top of this I tried my own twist on Google AdSense Arbitrage.  Well it really isn’t, but as I mentioned in a previous article, my web site host (StartLogic) gave me $50 Google AdWords credit when I signed up.  So I figured I might as well try it out on this.

Next time – my Adword campaign for www.games.cheesymeat.com success or failure and the details

This post is going to bring the story up to date.  So I put up some domains like www.financialflattery.com strictly hoping for ad revenue.  To date I have 14 of my domains with different themes hosted.  As of today December, 14 2008.  About 2 weeks into my venture I have made exactly$.11.  Yep that’s right eleven cents.  This is the reason I started really brainstorming and hitting the research.  I guess it won’t be quite as easy as I originally thought.  On top of this, after alot of work, I see Google released Ad Sense for Domains.  Basically a domain parking setup similar to Sedo.  Is it any better I doubt it, but maybe will atleast list it in their search engine since they are taking a cut of the revenue.  I parked 2 of my domains with Google just to check it out.  Over 5 days I have had 6 views no clicks on theses 2 domains.  If you want to see what the Google pages look like, click here.  www.turbocobalt.com

So I have a few ideas I will be trying .

1. Keyword selection.  My existing sites are very broad.  Like www.cheesymeat.com is about cooking, any and all types of cooking.  I really need to break these things down into a niche.  I need to take one of my keywords and expand from there to get better rankings and a specialized crowd.  I should limit it to say Baking chocolate cakes. Then my keywords will be related to that.  Much less broad.
2. Content.  I don’t think the blog and news search results on my sites are unique enough content to get caught by Google, or yahoo.  I have looked at some of the content article generating software packages like Instant Article Wizard, or a program like Simply PLR.  HyperVRE is another program that caught my eye.  They offer a free and paid service, and seems like the real deal.  I signed up for the free service but haven’t done anything with it yet.  Here is a Case Study E-Book (right click – save as) about a guy who made piles of cash with this program.  Hopefully by next week I can talk more in depth about it.   There are alot of these out there.  Before I spend any more money I want to make some.  So for now I will be researching my content articles and writing them myself.
3. Search engine submission.  I don’t think submissions really work.  So I need back links to my site.  Back links are basically links to my site from other sites.  I am currently unsure how I am going to attack this.  I have a link from every site to my generic link page on a different site www.autoilluminate.com/list This just creates a there and back link.  I don’t think this is enough to make a difference.

I am sure there is much more, but this is where I am going to start.  My current goal.  No more money going out until there is money coming in.  How much, well anything above the .11 in 2 weeks I have so far is good.  My first goal as of today is $1.00 a day from Ad Sense.  We will consider the others bonus.

Next – I will optimize one of my domains to the above guidelines.

I keep asking myself this same thing.  Now what do I do?  I have been in this game for all of 2 weeks so far, and can’t learn and read fast enough.  Well below I will document the continuation of my quest..

So I want to be an affilliate marketer.  Last time I told you I purchased some php scripts for content generation, set up a host at StartLogic.com, and was ready to get started. My next step was to start pointing my domain names in the right direction.  I own 45 domains in total.  A couple are dedicated to my other business startup, and some are just for personal / family use.  While I was at GoDaddy.com I went ahead and bought a few more names.  I have a pretty specific niche of names, and wanted to open my self up to a few more areas of the internet.  I mentioned in an earlier blog I am a repeat customer if service is good.  GoDaddy‘s names might cost a bit more than the cheapest places on the web, but the management utilities and other features are top notch.  I went ahead and pointed the name servers of the sites I wanted to utilize to StartLogic.

Now I have my domains, my hosting and some php scripts.  I began playing with the DomainZaar script package, initially I was impressed and happy with the default layout.  This package comes with Ad Sense ready to go, but seemed to be missing something.  I began tweaking the layout to suit my needs.  I added another ad, expanded a search box, added Google Ads for search, and just generally moved things around.  I prefer the way it looks now, but the real question is is the ad placement good?  I have no idea, that is on my list of things to research.

Next time – I need more ads…….

About 2 weeks ago (early December, 2008) I was surfing around the net, and stopped at Sedo to check my parked domains.  My account was up to a whopping $12.XX after 15 months on 40 domains.  I thought to myself, this is ridiculous, I can do better than this by myself.  So it began.  Did I begin the right way.  No, I didn’t do much research I just jumped and started treading water.  So if you follow me along my affiliate learning path (it may be rather rocky) maybe together we can make a few extra bucks.  I am not trying to make millions, just make some extra cash to pay off the bills.  If we find a way to get rich, well, so be it!

Before I detail how the first 2 weeks went some background on myself.  I am a 31 year old Mechanical Design Engineer.  I don’t necessarily like my job, but it is a semi-reliable paycheck.  After all I have to feed my wife and 2 (soon to be 3) kids and dog.  I am pretty technical, I have done web design in the past, and have some limited skills in HTML, PHP, and image manipulation.  Over the last year I have been starting up my own company focused on LED lighting and technology.  Unfortunately the stock market crash put a huge delay on my startup.  Only thing missing right now is capital.

Back to the affiliate marketing.  The first thing I did was look for a script that would compile as many pages as possible in the least amount of time.  After a minimal amount of searching I purchased DomainZaar for $99. DomainZaar is capable of setting up multiple domain names with different keywords on one hosting platform.  This was a great feature for me, as I own a lot of domains and did not want to host them all individually.  I will expand on this product later.

Now I needed a place to host my sites.  My business site is hosted at StartLogic and they have treated me well for several years now.  They support PHP , MySQL, and CGI, everything I needed for my application.  They also have services included that will do automatic installation of WordPress Blog software (what you are reading right now), and OSCommerce, a very effective (and free) e-commerce solution, and more.  When I signed up there was a special running for unlimited bandwidth, and unlimited storage for $5.95 per month, they also threw in $50.00 worth of Adwords credits.  Seems like a good deal to me, and I tend to be a loyal repeat customer when treated right.

Next episode we will discuss setting up accounts with Google Adsense, ClickBank, and Commission Junction.  Plus forwarding of GoDaddy domains.
