Good news for all merchants using the Google Checkout service. Google has officially announced that they have decided to offer to processes all Checkout transactions for free, even if you don’t have an AdWords account. Before for every $1 you spent on AdWords you would get $10 worth of Google Checkout sales for free. Now Google is saying that processing fees are free until December 31, 2007. Google just made Christmas a whole lot better for many merchants.

I’ve always wanted to create my own Custom Search Engine (CSE) but because I didn’t have the necessary skills thought that it would be virtually impossible. I know there are a lot of you out there that feel the same way but thanks to Google’s Co-op creating a CSE couldn’t be any easier, no coding required.   

I’ve already created my CSE a few weeks ago witch I’ve already announced on this blog, but only now am I seeing a wide spread use of the Google Co-op. Today at the Google blog you can see a good example of the CSE in action on MacWorld’s site “You can see the search box in the top right-hand corner”.    

Now this all is fine and dandy but what Webmasters really want is to earn big bucks. Well the good news is that you can. If you have an AdSense for search account, you can use it to link to your CSE and earn from searches.  Not only are you creating a better search experience for your visitors as you are also earning from doing it. I don’t think it could get any better than that.

A few days ago I decided to tweak a few things on my blog to see if I could attract more visitors. What I decided to do was go to old posts and change the heading to something simpler for search engines to understand. Headings like “My adventures in a capitalist’s world” changed to “Things I learned when starting my business”. Another test I did was to create a few more high quality pages on my blog with good headings and the best information I could possibly write. I know this might sound totally stupid but the results obtained just a few days after proved that my speculations were spot on.

Mike Filsame just released his new superb eBook “The Death of Internet Marketing Report” which is a definite must for all Internet Marketers. At first I was skeptical and thought this was yet another FREE online eBook that nobody wanted to read, and yes I said FREE. After about two seconds spent reading the introduction and the first few paragraphs I just couldn’t take my eyes off it.

I’ve seen eBooks not even half as good as Mike Filsame’s The Death of Internet Marketing Report being sold for hundreds if not thousands of dollars so needled to say that I was rather surprised that something this good was being distributed free. You can read and explanation why Mike Filsame is offering his work for free in his eBook.

One thing that surprises me is the number of people that only rely on Adsense to make monetize their site or blog. When visiting any Webmaster forum there are endless threads started by Adsense junkies complaining about how little they are earning.

So what are they doing wrong, why aren’t they cashing in?

There is actually a very simple answer to this question. Adsense is great for high-traffic sites that generate at least 50 clicks or more per day, if this isn’t your case you just won’t get rich of Adsense. This statement is so true that even the Adsense team admits that only 1% of all publishers make more than $50 per month, now that’s something to think about. Please understand that I’m not encouraging anyone to stop using Adsense, what I do want is to explain to you that there are better ways of making money. I use these three Affiliate programs to further monetize my blog.

John Chow’s blog has a very interesting article on his blog about how to make money from domains. Needles to say that this notion was totally new to me so I thought it would be interesting to share it here with everyone.  The article describes how people known has “domainers” make money from buying domains and using them on parked pages with ads. The money comes from PPC services especially catered for parked domains like Google Adsense for Domains. A few days ago I also wrote a post about how to make money from parked domains but I think John Chow’s might be more profitable especially for those people that have many domains. Read the full article here.
