			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Choosing a domain name is an important task.    Many PSOs make poor choices &#8211; especially the first time out.    While it is cool to have your name as a domain, it is wiser to have a keyword(s) in your domain name.    I made this mistake when I first started and have more than a few domains that I wish were other names.</p>
<p>For example&#8230; your name for phone sex might be Bertha Green.. well BerthaGreen.com might be available but will not help you in the search engines&#8230; BarelyLegalBertha.com will (as long as Bertha is barely legal, not mature)</p>
<p>Check out this site for some great domain name suggestions!   <a href="http://www.techreform.com/dn-generator/" target="_blank">Random Domain Generator</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Picking and getting ranked for the proper keywords is probably the most important part of marketing your blog.    Yes you will get lots of great traffic from regulars who read and chat on the phone and money with you.    But to attract new callers you have to be where they are searching..     There are hundreds of thousands of PSOs trying to rank for &#8220;Phonesex&#8221; &#8211; so be creative&#8230; shoot for something that is called a medium-tail &#8211; as in &#8220;Anal Phone Sex&#8221; or &#8220;Big Booty Phone Sex&#8221; &#8211; pick 4-5 words that people would search for and target those words.        Again&#8230; find your niche and market to it&#8230;</p>
<p>Now that you picked a niche, think of some variants on the niche and write them down.   Now just because you thought of them does not mean they are being searched.     You might think of &#8220;Bikini topped, nipples showing barely legal phone sex chicks&#8221; and you can target those keywords and probably be #1 in google&#8230; for all 2 of the people who search for that each year.</p>
<p>You have to choose keywords that people are actually searching on!!!   Now there are plenty of keyword research tools that tell you how many hits a keyword gets &#8211; this is only part of the research that you need to do.   To really zero in you have to research how many times a word(s) is searched for and how much competition there is for that word &#8211; the you zero in on your KEI &#8211; Key Word Effectiveness Index.      In summary the more searches and less competition the better the KEI or the better the keyword is to target!</p>
<p>I have a subscription to <a href="http://www.wordze.com/videos/KeywordResearch/?roia=!YzUxMgBVAAAU60EAAlpc" target="_blank">Wordze</a> and use it all the time!    Not just for my personal phone sex blogs  &#8211; but to search out keywords for the sites and blogs I run just to market affiliate programs (now about 35 of them).   <a href="http://www.wordze.com/videos/KeywordResearch/?roia=!YzUxMgBVAAAU60EAAlpc" target="_blank"> Wordze</a> is powerful and might be overkill for the average PSO.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Portal sites are site designed to feed you traffic.      There are varied opinions on portal sites I have my own concept and have had much luck developing it!    The idea of a portal is to draw traffic that you can push to your own personal blog, sell some memberships on pay sites, gain bookmarkers and create backlinks to your personal blog to raise its rankings in SEO.</p>
<p>While your personal blog probably uses phone sex and other similar keywords.      A portal site can focus on one niche.     So if your character is slutty sexy Milf you might take lots of Oral Sex calls.     So make a portal site focused on Oral Sex.     Include various sub-niches Deep Throating, Facials, Lipstick, Bukkake etc.    A portal is mostly set it up and forget it!</p>
<p>Think of the portal as a way for surfers to feel they have found the ultimate authority site on your niche.   When they hit the home page they might various sections &#8211; maybe recordings (free and for sale) of you doing some oral sex phone bone, a review section with your opinion on various oral sites, links to movies of the days etc&#8230; use your imagination!     Most importantly include ads to your personal blog.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Found a great list of FireFox Extensions check out this blog that also blogs about affiliate marketing&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8220;If you’re a full time affiliate marketer there’s a very good chance that you probably don’t use internet explorer anymore. There’s a number of reasons most people switch, but the most common, is the lack of plugin functionality &amp; 3rd party integration.</p>
<p>Firefox has really embraced these types of applications &amp; allows you to integrate them seamlessly into your regular workflow, helping you to do tasks or use functions that the original developers didn’t hardcode.</p>
<p>I use quite a number of Firefox Extensions that really make a huge difference to my workflow &amp; productivity, but the aim of this post to be the definitive list of Firefox Plugins for Affiliate Marketers&#8221;   <a href="http://www.earnersblog.com/affiliate-firefox-extensions/#more-548" target="_blank">Check it out here</a></p>
<p>My Favorite is <a href="http://www.foxmarks.com/" target="_blank">Foxmarks</a> &#8211; as go between a desktop and laptop!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I am a big fan of OpenX.    You can download OpenX here.    OpenX is a script that is open source software (meaning free to use).    A script is a program that sits on your server and runs from there you can access it through any web browser.</p>
<p>OpenX was initially designed to be a resource for someone with mutliple websites  who is selling the space on those sites to multiple advertisers.     It is not a selling site like adbrite but just a hosting and serving place.</p>
<p>With OpenX I set each of my sites up as a &#8220;publisher&#8221; and then each Sponsor as an Advertiser.    The ads in the sidebars to the right are served with OpenX and wil change each time the page rotates.      I also use OpenX to serve up NF buttons, Featured Pics and more -it is much easier once you are used to it than using a banner rotator.</p>
<p>The best part about OpenX is you can track impressions and clicks &#8211; so each day I can see how many times any various banner or text ad was served and how many times they got clicked.    If I am running two banners in the same spot and each is served up 1000 times and one is clicked 200 times and one only 2 times I know to change out that banner!</p>
<p>The greatest thing is &#8211; now that I have decided to change a banner, I only need to swap it out once on my openx server and it changes on every site I have it on!</p>
<p>OpenX is magic for monetizing and making $$ from your blog!!!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.sextronix.com/signup.html?wmid=107083" target="_blank">Sextronics has tons of great site to promote &#8211; even cartoon games! </a> And they have LOTS of great graphics so you can try various banners.   I promote Party Girls Flashing and Drunk Girls Flashing  on a blog I have.    There are great banners for each site &#8211; so I have about 6 for each loaded in OpenX, each time they load the impression is recorded and then each click is recorded.    By doing this I am able to narrow down which gets the most clicks and ultimately sales!</p>

<p>And now you are clicking around the site and overwhelmed!!   Well take a deep breath!</p>
<p>Start by picking one site that you want to promote.    Once you have chosen a site to promote you need the link codes to go to that site &#8211; the link code will send the customer to site you are promoting when the click on a banner or text link you have posted.    Most sponsors have multiple pages to which you can send your traffic.</p>
<p>To find your code on <a href="http://aff.kinkydollars.com/track/MTAxODY2Mjo1OjI/" target="_blank">Kinky Dollars</a> click on Link Codes, then choose Default (we will review campaigns another times) and next step.      Now choose your revenue plan (I prefer 50%/60%) and click next step.    Then you will see all the sites listed and options for pages to send your customer to.   Simply copy and paste the link code of your choice to a text link or banner image and you are off!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yes I am  BIG Niteflirt fan!!    If you are a PSO and not already using Niteflirt for a billing platform &#8211; I strongly suggest you do!   NIteflirt still offers the Tell A Friend Program!!   And you can make $$$ there!!</p>
<p>You can always use your own link codes and get TAFs .  Just use the static banners or make some of your own..   then use the link code for sending free three minutes.   This way you get the $50 and the site gets traffic &#8211; You just dont get tracking like an affiliate program.</p>
<p>a few hints</p>
<ul>
<li> Make a separate account keeping TAF under that one so it is seperate from your regular buttons</li>
<li>Make text links and use them all over.  &#8220;click here for three free minutes of HOT phone sex&#8221;</li>
<li>use something like openx to track your impressions vs traffic so you get some traffic data</li>
<li>make your own &#8220;click here for three free minutes of HOT phone sex&#8221; banners/buttons and use them</li>
<li><strong>Send yourself a TAF free 3 minutes email and use that linking code &#8211; not call buttons.</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>Here is an example of a TAF Link:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.niteflirt.com/?TID=NEMxRDND" target="_blank">Click here for Free Phone Sex &#8211; First three minutes FREE!!</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lots of you might ask why I am going this?</p>
<p>In 2008 part of my goals are to monetize my blog and sites better &#8211; make money from the traffic!!   I get great traffic to my blogs and cannot always be there to answer the phone &#8211; so advertising affiliates on my blog is a way to make some extra money!  There are many adult webmasters who just run blogs and link to affiliate programs  &#8211; when the reader of the blog clicks to the affiliate program and signs up or buys &#8211; the webmaster makes a commission.</p>
<p>I have posted on PSO Forums about making dollars from affiliates and get many many emails and PMs asking for help  &#8211; By creating this blog many of the answers can be combined and here for any PSO to reference any time.</p>
<p>To be up front &#8211; I plan to offer advice on marketing affiliates in your sites/blogs so you can make money!    Many affiliate programs offer webmaster affiliates also &#8211; so if a PSO signs up based on my recommendation using my link code &#8211; I get a small percentage of any sale you make.   THIS DOES NOT REDUCE THE COMMISSIONS YOU MAKE!!     I ask that you use my referral codes when signing up for programs I introduce you to as a thank you for hooking you up!</p>
