Pay Per Lead Returns

While many marketers know about Pay-Per-Click(PPC) and Pay-Per-Sale(PPS), they may not be using or know about Pay-Per-Lead(PPL) programs.

The most well known PPC program is Adsense. Someone clicks your ads you make a few cents, sometimes a few dollars. PPS is an affiliate program where you get money whenever someone buys after clicking through. The difference in a PPL is that you're getting paid for getting a company a lead on a sale, and not the actual sale. The visitor has nothing to buy.

Modern Click is one website that has these types of programs. More exist online and take some searching to find, but it's encouraged to try them out.

One argument marketers is have against them is that you're building someone else's list by doing this. However, you can still capture emails by using these programs before letting your visitor click through so that future busy money is still safe. One thing a well known marketer is doing is replacing all his Adsense on his Adsense sites with PPL instead. This way he can make dollars instead of cents per click.

The possibilities are exciting for this underused way to make money online. With Google's Adwords/Adsense slap of the past few months it can be a great alternative to using them until they level out and can be profitable again without many sites devoted to their ads.

MySpace Marketing Still Alive And Well

Still new on the internet marketing scene is MySpace marketing. I, personally, know of a kid who isn't even old enough to have a learner's permit who's making about $1000-$2000 a month using MySpace. So how are they doing it?

One of the first things that needs to be done is to get yourself educated on the way internet marketers are using this social network to make money. There are many products around and most will tell you the same thing. A good one I've personally purchased is call The MySpace Bank, and contains very useful information from creating profiles to how to effectively market to them. You can try and do it by yourself, but you may have limited or no success until some of the professionals shed some light on how they're doing it first.

You WILL need an adder robot program. So look into that as one of your first major investments for MySpace. You'll need a lot of Friends, and lots of accounts. Adder Robot and Badder Adder are the most commonly used due to their abilities to quickly adapt to changes at MySpace.

While the wheels of MySpace are doing their best to make life difficult or hard for the marketer, it's still in a Wild West state and anyone who really puts their mind to it can make a killing on the site. I highly recommend buying an adder robot, and at least one ebook on how to do it before braving the website. It's easy to do wrong and make nothing.
