This Really IS A “No Brainer” Moment For You !

If you ‘ve read some of our earlier posts you’ll know we are always on the look out for ways to top up our overall income via online strategies and have posted about a few things that have worked for us.

We have been evaluating and checking out a membership site option for the last week and have now signed up for it as it has tremendous value not only for the existing content and facilities but also to assist us in expanding our money making online options.

The site operator is fairly new to the internet having only started his online efforts in February 2008 but has amassed a mailing list of about 17,000 subscribers which is growing daily and he currently now averages around $250 a day in online income with his best day being just about $3,500.

Just half of his average $7,500 per month income would be great right now !

He is British but lives permanently in California. He can still remember vividly how difficult it was for him to get started online and that adds a refreshing (non “Guru”) touch to the way he presents his video tutorials (there are tons of them !).

To make things easier for newbies he always assumes no knowledge on the part of the viewer and uses a slow and concise delivery of information process which makes everything so easy to understand. We watched one video and found out how to do something that had confused and eluded us for years and he made it so simple to understand and implement.

There is a whole lot of good stuff that you can gain from becoming a member and it will take you right through the A-Z of making money online and we intend now to make full use of this excellent membership site. What is currently available to you as a member is amazing but he is also committed to improving and adding yet more ways to earn income which he will fully explain in simple fashion so there’s also lots of future potential.

Your membership will allow you to use all that is currently on the site and there is the added bonus of free unlimited website hosting too.

How much is all of this ?

A paltry $4.95 for the first 14 days trial and then just $27 per month after that.

The videos are SO easy to understand that 14 days should be more than enough time for you to start earning money online even if you are totally new as every step you need to cover is explained so it is not difficult to understand.

Considering you would probably pay around half of the membership cost for good quality web hosting anyway this is a steal and well worth the money. Especially as you kick off with a free ebook you can sell plus a load of videos showing you how to set it all up. We’ve watched them and they are excellently produced.

Follow the link below and signup for the 14 days to evaluate everything … that should be more than enough time for you to know if this site is going to be of benefit to you and in fact we would consider it to be a “no brainer” as we  cannot say enough good things about this guy and his membership site so we are truly confident to recommend it.

If you have ANY interest at all in the potential for making money online then just take a look at what’s on offer here

Powerseller Tutorial Services

WOW !

Is it REALLY nearly two years since the last post ?!

We would have to write a book to cover the multitude of reasons why so won’t bore anyone with that right now.

This post is going to be nothing to do with video but we just HAD to put the information out as it might well be something that a LOT of people will be interested in ?

It is about a serious (and proven) method for generating a good additional income stream and we can ALL surely benefit from that in the current economic climate ?

We have always been regular users of Ebay and got to Silver Powerseller status about two years ago and with auction listings every week we generated a regular amount of cash from selling our unwanted items (mostly household and ornaments etc). We eventually sold to over thirteen Countries around the World but it was just a means to get rid of stuff we didn’t want anymore and we didn’t treat it as a busines at all.

Once we had got rid of most of our stuff we left Ebay alone for a while and lost our Powerseller status purely through inactivity but we still bought things occasionally that we needed.

Anyway we started a major property refurbish towards the end of last year and went through Ebay to source most of the things we needed and saved a ton of money on the materials and fittings etc. This started us selling a few unwanted items again and we recently had an email about a new book outlining the “serious business potential” of Ebay which we knew was a possibility but never really looked into it.

So we were intrigued and bought the book and it really IS a great read from a Gold Powerseller who has gone from zero to about £2,500 per week selling on Ebay … now that’s got to be worth looking into don’t you think !?

Even a tenth of that level of success would be great for most people in these uncertain financial times so we are pleased to be able to share the knowledge … there is a small cost involved but the book will come to you as a hard copy “real” item in the mail so do have a look as we believe it is worth it for the knowledge and potential it will give you.

Social Networking & Content Sharing That Pays !

For some time now Social Networking sites such as MySpace and FaceBook to name just two have been rapidly growing in popularity. So much so that Ad Revenues are soaring and although it is the users themselves that are supplying the actual content the site owners are reaping the big financial rewards from Ad Revenue. Times are now changing with ever more “Revenue Sharing” options cropping up to share videos, images and narrative content.

This post is going to be a bit long and we will be encouraging you to take certain actions which at the time may not make sense but at the end of this post we hope you will agree that it was a wise decision to act upon our suggestions ?

So get comfortable and have a pen and paper ready for any notes you may wish to take and let’s get going.

Our starting point is to mention again a Video Sharing option we have referred to in earlier posts but would now strongly recommend that you go ahead and join for free right now to get the ball rolling. It will only take a minute or two so we will wait while you do that.

Ok you now have your free Video Sharing site from our suggestion above (you did sign up didn’t you ?) and are contemplating loading (embedding) videos from YouTube and GoogleVideo but we will leave it there for now.

We want you to look at the additional options below and sign up for each one in turn as we mention them and it will all fit into place at the end. They are all FREE so there is no financial risk.

If you currently have the capabilities to actually produce videos then by all means do load them onto the two sites mentioned above initially to get viewings started. However we would suggest that you also get a free account with the Revver Video Sharing site because they have added a nice twist to the proceedings by “Revverising” every video upload. What this means to the video producer is that a content driven Ad tag will be embedded with the uploaded video and this code will follow that video … wherever it goes !

Having got your FREE Revver account the benefits are that you can now load your video onto this site and you will receive 40% of the Ad Revenue generated by simple viewings of your video. Remember that the Ad is tagged to your video so all that is needed for you to get paid is for it to be viewed !

But the benefits don’t stop there because any video on the Revver site can be embedded by anyone else virtually anywhere they like to provide a truly viral opportunity. And as the Ad tag goes with it you will continue to get the 40% Revenue share every time it is viewed and if it is embedded again and again and again …. just think about it !

The long term potential for just that one video upload starts to get very attractive from a financial point of view

Additionally, for those unable to actually create videos, there is the simple option of being able to embed videos from Revver onto most of the major video hosting sites. These “sharers” will then receive 20% of the Ad Revenue while you (as the producer) continue to get your 40% so it is a win-win situation for all concerned. The remaining 20% stays with Revver so they rightfully take a slice of the pie for providing the facilities.

Now if you take this a stage further with the video created above which you loaded onto YouTube, Video Google and now your Revver site we will give you yet another option so that you can add further to your income potential.

We want you to now sign up for a FREE account with this Social Networking site that actually pays it’s users 100% of all Ad Revenue !

Revenue is generated when AdSense Ads are clicked and these are placed on all pages with content such as uploaded or embedded videos, pictures and images, blog posts, profile pages and in fact almost every page within the site. If it is your content on the page then it will be your AdSense Publisher Id that will be credited with 100% of the Ad Revenue.

If we use the example of the same video above created and loaded to YouTube, Video Google (no income there yet) and your Revver site then don’t forget that the 100% revenue gained from this site is in addition to the 40% or 20% being received from Revver. It is also likely to go viral by it being continually embedded elsewhere by more and more users … the long term potential is just amazing !

After signing up for your FREE account with this Social Networking site that gives you back 100% of the Ad Revenue we would strongly suggest you go to your FREE Revver account (you did sign up didn’t you ?) and start loading (embedding) as many videos as you can from Revver to your Social Networking site. Finish the rest of this post first though as there’s more good stuff to come

If you remember the FREE Video Sharing site we initially mentioned above (did you sign up for your free site ?) you will appreciate the potential benefits of searching YouTube or Google Video for videos that were also loaded onto Revver (remember the Ad tag that was added ?) and load these onto your Video Sharing site as well as your Social Network site to give you a triple whammy of income potential ? To recap that would be the initial 40% (producer) or 20% (sharer) from Revver plus the 100% from your Social Network site plus now the 50% share from your Video Sharing site …. how amazing is that from just one video ?

If you think the above is awesome just wait as we’re not done yet !

There is also now a new new player on the Social Networking scene that is taking off like wildfire and you would be well advised to sign up with this as soon as possible. Forget for a moment about AdSense or any form of PPC (Pay Per Click) revenue as all that is needed for you to get paid with this option is to build up a monthly tally of straightforward ”Page Views”.  The whole site of course shows the usual Ad layouts and the site owners are receiving the Ad revenue but your share will be determined each month by your page views plus all of the page views of your referrals down through massive ten levels.

Why would people not want to sign up for a Social Networking site that works simply on page views and then get paid each month for what they and their complete downline (to 10 levels) have looked at also ?

We’ve tried really hard but cannot think of any reason not to sign up for this so do yourself a favour and break away for a minute from this post and go and watch the demo video here and then sign up … do it now while we wait.

Ok you’re back and you now have the final piece of this four piece jigsaw so guess what comes next ?

You link all of what you already had in place from our earlier suggestions with your new Social Networking site too and start loading a few videos onto that but with one reservation. This is not a video sharing site although there are places where you can embed a few videos so that you can cross link everything.

The main benefit of this last option is that it is a Social Networking site where you get paid for page views so you can use your other sites to drive traffic to THIS site (and vice versa) while you are also getting income from actually sharing the videos on the others … awesome isn’t it ?

Well that’s about it. You have just spent a bit of you valuable time wading through this post while we have had the audacity to basically tell you what to do and when to do it but think about where you are right now ?

You have signed up for just four FREE options which will now allow you to share content and you have a fantastic potential income stream just waiting for you to kickstart by just loading content over and over again.

Well done ! Now go grab a coffee, relax, reflect upon what yo uhave achieved and in your own time start building your online empire ?

If you have any questions at all just do a Google search for cashinthebox and you’ll find more than one place you can leave us a comment or a message

Oh and just a final thought …. remember that there are many other video and image sharing sites and Social Networking sites that will pay you a share of the revenue in some way or another so having started you now have limitless ways you can add to what you now have and link everything together for a massive network of income generating options. 

We are currently very excited about a brand new Social Networking site that is in pre-launch which will provide you with another great opportunity and we highly recommend that you jump in right now and secure your pre-launch place here . It is going to be MASSIVE so you won’t want miss adding this to your list of options so do it now as it will only take a minute to fill out the form.

We intend to be in with a shout on ALL of them so why not you too ?

Good luck and once you have started to load content you will need to think seriously about how you are going to advertise your new sites so for a highly recommended and totally awesome FREE option just sign up here.

Additionally we have come across a useful FREE link which will allow you to ping your sites and links to several areas at once … very useful.

And lastly why not think about this for an idea ?

If you have followed our suggestions to the letter and signed up for all of the options why not just copy this post (change it a little to your style of writing if you want) then change all of our links to yours and post it to all of YOUR blogs and sites ?

Let’s go viral !   :-)

If you found this post beneficial do leave a suitable comment ?

In-Video Advertising is catching up

For some time now the use of online video has been exploding throughout the internet and the percentage of websites in existence that do not contain at least one video clip is diminishing rapidly.

Until now the advertising fraternity have not really kept pace but there is now frenetic actvity to latch onto the huge potential for In-Video advertising and the big players are setting out their stalls.

For a current look at what is on offer read more at this link.

We may all suffer now from “Banner Blindness” and got used to bypassing the “Ads By Google” (unless something is of REAL interest) so for now it’s time to enjoy those video clips without having the interruption of a commercial break.

We will surely get used to the forthcoming new wave of advertising as with everything else that we are bombarded with on a routine daily basis.

“Video Blindness” anyone ?

Create Some Cool Videos For FREE !

Sadly we have been lacking time to add to this site lately as life just seems to get in the way (you know how it is) but recently we came across a really neat option and have been tinkering around with it with some great results.

Not having the capabilities (technically) or a lot a spare cash to buy equipment and software we had hit a brick wall with our intention to create our own videos. The option highlighted below solved all of that for FREE !

We prepared a simple short video with some holiday pictures we already had and then added some stock clips and pictures from the facilities available.

There are then various options to allow you to share the result as well as load it onto YouTube.

Check it out and see what you think ?

Our second attempt highlighting our Bulgarian experiences was a little longer but hopefully flows quite well through to an appropriate ending ? You can check it out also on YouTube.

This software makes preparing simple videos a lot easier and if you have noticed the escalating use of video clips on the internet these days this option allows YOU to get in on the act too. 

If you would also like the option of sharing your video clips (and those of others) to earn an addditional income then you can register for this Free Video website (it will be generated within minutes) and you can start loading (embedding) video clips from VideoGoogle or YouTube.

You will get 50% of any revenue generated from visitors to your site that click on the Google Ads surrounding the videos YOU upload. PLUS you will get a further 10% from those that you refer that sign up for a free site too (once you have loaded a minimum of 10 video clips to your site to qualify).

ALL you need to register for your Free website is an email address but you will also need a Google AdSense Publisher ID (which is also free) so this really is a totally zero cost option. You just need to log into your Free Video website user account and enter the details of your AdSense Publisher ID to enable tracking of your AdSense income.

You are now ready to start uploading Videos and earning an extra income !

You will get a welcome email and access to a very useful User Forum which will give you lots of help to get you started. To see some existing working sites check any of the video clip links on this site.

EVERYONE loves FREE stuff … don’t they ?

We’ve only been working on the internet for a few months and in that short time we have signed up to lots of Information Newsletters and Mailing Lists. As a consequence we get at least 50 emails a day giving us links to all sorts of HOT stuff that we must click NOW to get or it will self destruct in 5 minutes and we will lose our chance …. you know how it works ?

Anyway we got one today and after a quick scan was about to hit the delete button but then decided it looked a little too interesting so we followed the link and delved a little deeper.

It really does seem to offer a lot of good stuff and although we didn’t go through EVERY link we saw enough to know that it was well worth a few minutes of our time in checking it out so we have bookmarked the link for a more detailed look later as we’re a bit pressed for time right now.  

There are obviously going to be embedded upsell links and offers (which can be ignored if they are of no interest) but the BULK of the items on offer are FREE so we thought it was worthwhile making this post to let others know about it too.

There is a wide ranging spread of stuff on offer from many notable internet “names” so there is sure to be some items of interest to many reading this and it is worth checking out ….. just go to this link to find out more.  

The Results Are Encouraging !

We made our first post on the 1st February so now that we are at the end of our very first month it seemed appropriate we should finish with a post of our progress over the last 28 days.

Co-incidentally that also is the number normally quoted in terms of the elapsed time needed for repetitive activity to either make (or break) a habit.

So, what have we achieved so far ?

We are pleased with having had just over 700 site visitors which at an average of 25 per day would give us just over 9,000 visitors a year if everything remained the same. Of course it is our intention to move things on continually and we would hope to be able to multiply that hit rate at least by a factor of ten within the next couple of months.

We started with just one video sharing site for our “general content” videos about a week before setting up this site but we have since then added six more and our intention was to focus on specific video content within each. This method has allowed us to achieve targeted AdSense Ads associated with the content on each site.

It is our plan to keep this process going and our next target is to have 50 video sharing “mini sites” all with a different content focus. This will give us a greater AdSense exposure and increase our income potential through the Ad placements on each. Our longer term target is for 100 sites each with a minimum of 100 videos which will give us a constantly changing exposure to around 100,000 AdSense Ads at that point. We will then assess the income being generated but whatever it is we will probably just keep going anyway … 100, 500, 1000 ?

Within the seven sites to date we have loaded a total of 219 Videos which have been viewed 6,223 times and with that we have achieved an AdSense Ad exposure of 4,993 … the associated income from that is not life changing but proves to us that we are heading in the right direction and that this will be a worthwhile activity over time.

It was totally clear to us right away that this is definitely not a get rich quick scheme and that it would need a sustained and consistent effort to build to a beneficial income stream. However it is a totally free option as well as an easy way to get started in earning a passive income through AdSense so we just jumped straight in and got started with it.

There is a fully supportive Forum already in place with lots of help available from the existing (and growing) member base as well as ongoing support and assistance from the originating founder(s) who are also constantly looking to enhance the revenue share potential.

We have had 21 people join us in this activity and they are each on their own journey towards a passive income through the AdSense revenue share. 

We have been encouraging people to take a look at this through various means but with the very small number of people who have joined us we wonder if much of that lack of enthusiasm is perhaps due to how we have been outlining the opportunity ?

So, whilst writing this post we thought it would be beneficial to highlight the main thrust of what is actually available …

For anyone with a Website or Blog who is already, or at least contemplating, using enmbedded video to enhance the look and content of their site(s) then the video sharing concept should be investigated as a serious opportunity to generate an increasing amount of passive income over time through very little extra effort once the structure is in place. The compounding effect of adding videos and setting up more “mini sites” on a regular basis will soon reach a tipping point where the income starts to flow more freely and in greater amounts. The initial trickle when first starting out is perhaps a little disappointing but this is to be expected with a new venture … what should be considered is that loading videos onto a website is neither difficult nor hard work and after that the income will flow. How much will depend upon how long that activity is continued.

For anyone already using AdSense then this is a natural addition to enhance and boost that income stream. For those that have not considered AdSense then we can only stress that it is free to set up and easy to implement. For those with a website or blog already in existence then it really is worth investigating and with the explosion in online video usage the video sharing option is an even greater opportunity.

Joining us in this activity is also free and a website will immediately be made available to commence the embedding of videos from either YouTube or Video Google (other hosting sites may be added later).

Once the video code has been added to the video sharing site then the AdSense revenue sharing commences and the code from that site can then be used to embed videos on your own site(s). The advantage being that your own sites will then link to the video sharing site and improve your promotion and backlinks.

As far as we can see this opportunity is a win-win situation and it is totally legitimate as you will only be embedding the video code to enable you to show the video content on your video sharing site as well as any other sites you wish the videos to appear. There is much more that can be achieved if you are able to produce your own unique content videos but as a start using embedded video will allow anyone to get started.

Hopefully that is perhaps a better explanation of what is available to everyone and as there is absolutely no monetary cost we cannot imagine why anyone would pass up the opportunity to get involved with this ?

Have a look at any of our videos and you will see the link to join up just above the orange RSS logo … hopefully many more of our site visitors will be joining us in the coming months ?

Big Changes In Video Marketing

YouTube videos are now being listed in the Video.Google.Com video search index and YouTube.Com has recently announced that they will start revenue sharing with video publishers

Chad Hurley the co-founder of YouTube.Com stated on 27th January 2007 that his wildly successful site will start sharing revenue with its millions of users.

So what effect has this had on the internet marketing community ?

To date it would seem that very little has happened which perhaps shows that the internet marketing community is slow to pick up on the potential for video marketing. Here is a quote from a very large and popular internet marketing forum about video marketing … 

“I always thought to rank well in a video search engine you have to have a good catchy video that is viral. This will help to get people embedding the google code into their site giving it more popularity and then Google will know this and rank it higher.”

This is simply not the case and it is like saying that all you need to do is to build a great website and the money will come. But a website costing a $Million to create which is then not indexed in the major search engines is worth practically $zero !

This is the same with video on YouTube.Com and Video.Google.Com as you may have the funniest or most inspiring video ever made but if it is not seen by anybody you have just wasted a lot of time and energy producing it.

When you have literally tens of thousands of people submitting videos each day the competition is fierce in terms of getting your videos to the next stage, which is to be listed on the high ranking lists, and this is what you need to do to get maximum exposure to your videos.

Since Google.Com purchased YouTube.Com there was much speculation about what and how this would affect the video community as a whole.

Recently Video.Google.Com added the entire YouTube.Com video collection to its database effectively tripling the Video.Google.Com database immediately. The true effects of this merge have yet to be seen but those who regularly monitor the top 100 results in Video.Google.Com will see that nothing much has changed. Videos that ranked well for specific niches have been pushed down the VERPS (Video Engine Ranking Positions) . Videos that for the last 6 months ranked in the top 5 for the search term “Diet Coke Mentos” have now been pushed down the VERPS to the second page and replaced by videos from YouTube.Com.

Now YouTube.Com has announced that they will start revenue sharing.

Simply put this is sharing the revenue generated by advertising surrounding the video content similar to what TheVideoSense.Com (sharing 50%) is already doing currently with their video publishers.

YouTube.Com has not yet disclosed its plans so how and how much they are going to share the revenue is unknown at this stage but obviously those in the video marketing community are hoping it will be a lot. There has been no mention of their terms and conditions relating to the video content that will qualify for revenue sharing but most likely this is one of their strategies to increase their fresh video content being submitted to YouTube.Com and they will continue trying to stop their members submitting copyright material which has caused them so much grief to date.

At the very least since the recent YouTube.Com announcement will get the attention of the internet marketing community now that there is the added possibility of making money from videos.

There are huge changes happening on the internet right now and this area is a ground floor opportunity to be right at the forefront of Internet Video Marketing.

It’s pretty much an even playing field right now and those that have already taken advantage of the free signup at TheVideoSense.Com know for sure that there has never been a better time to get involved with the enormous potential of the opportunity that now presents itself to the internet community.

Now on the internet marketing scene is the Video SEO competition being promoted by Peter Drew one of the founders of TheVideoSense.Com and this was designed to encourage internet marketers to get involved in video marketing and to teach those people the skills needed to rank highly and get targeted traffic to their websites via freely hosted video content.
