How I Make Money Selling Pendrive and Portable Hard drive

I receive another payment from Pexagon Technology!



Many friends and readers ask how do I make that? How do I market the things?
My answer: I don't know
I sounds arrogant right? But that is the truth, I don't know. If I have any secret, I will be rich selling them already...

So, today, I check my Pexagon account, there is a link/tool for you to see where your traffic comes from. However, we can't see which one actually generate sales. My visitors to the pexagon portable hard drive page comes from these sites...

I believe the one selling for me are those from the Yahoo Answers. If you are interested to do what I did, be careful and don't look as if you are spammers. I am currently not active there as I have been suspended...

5 Things you need to know before choosing a web hosting company

Selecting a reliable web hosting company is always been a difficult job because web hosting is a big and competitive field. Every hosting provider would like to give as much as good features as a customer wants. But good features is not always what people require. Good customer support as well as good up time is also needed in order to keep running your website and obtaining your money making goals.
Here are some simple but effect tips you can follow to select a better web hosting company in terms of price, features and support/up-time.

  1. Love at first sight is always not successful

    Never select a hosting company at first sight by looking at their features table. If you run though the web hosting sites you’ll find this table in almost any web hosting company. Such as larger bandwidth, large disk space, php, mysql, databases, Free softwares (one click installed) etc. Every host have these features.

  2. Forget the pocket and analyze your requirements

    First of all you have to see what you want in a hosting environment. If you are starting a lot of mini sites then you may not need Bandwidth in terabytes. Just a couple of GB’s will work because people don’t work on mini sites too much.
    On the other side, if you want to start one or few websites but having a traffic and community members goal then see how much bandwidth and disk space you may need. Video and photo sites always suck large bandwidth and disk space. PHP, mysql and other stuff should not be in your analysis because almost every hosting company have these features.

  3. Build a list of your favorite companies

    After analyzing your requirements and looking at features table of hosting companies, build a short list of names. Some i can recommend are


  4. See your pockets now

    Now see how much you can afford and choose the one name to purchase hosting from.

  5. Find the words from world

    Go though popular web hosting forums and find and read reviews about your selected company. This must be done in order to find how other people feel about this hosting company. You can try WHT (Web hosting Talk) forum and many others too. They can give you best advices too. And then purchase the hosting and start running / hosting websites.

First step to affiliate marketing

Making money online on Internet is not a very tough way to go but sometimes it is. The best and short way is the one you choose. You can make money online in pennies or you can make money online in big units. For example for starters, making money with AdSense is always best. But problem with AdSense is that you need a lot of patience and time in order to get big amount of money.
On the other hand, you can try affiliate marketing which can bring you big units of money. Affiliate marketing can be done in many different ways. It can be a pay per action, a pay per lead, pay per sale or pay per click. Usually pay per lead affiliate programs and pay per sale, pays more than ppc.
For a quick step, if you want to make some in hurry you can try a combination of affiliate marketing and PPC bidding. You choose a product to promot then join adwords or yahoo PPC and bring traffic to your landing page and let people make the actions and revenue for you.
The other way is a little timy but long term way of making money. Build a website, populate it with content and promote it on search engine. Make it search engine friendly, build some links and start promoting products. As long as you are getting FREE search engine traffic, you are making money more than by using PPC way. Because in SEO way you don’t have to spent anything. All you have to do is a little bit effort and time.
You can try signing up with commission junction, neverblueads, amazon associates, clickbank and azoogle for trying your first step towards affiliate marketing.
PPC can be successful but SEO always does the job in cheap way. Just signup and pick a product and promote it as much as you can to get targeted traffic to your landing pages.

Trick 4

Amazon affiliate earning 4% is really that enough ?

Amazon is a very big name in shopping world. Their affiliate program which is known as Amazon Associates program, is a big help when you are going towards affiliate marketing road. But as big as their name is, they pay only 4% referral commission by selling products of other people (companies) though amazon.com.
The benefits of amazon associate network are that they are popular brand, and people have no problem to purchase or use their credit cards on amazon website. But the bad thing is that if somebody knows that you are promoting a product from amazon, most of them will rather wish to buy it from amazon.
Usually i ended up with amazon stores and got some success by simply writing reviews on different products and giving a direct link to amazon website. It works best for me.
Another big problem with amazon associate network is their cookie time period which is really very short like their referral. The cookie time is only 1 day. It means if a person clicks on your affiliate link and if they buy that item after 24 hours, you won’t get any commission. They must have to buy it within a day otherwise your click is just a waste.
You can raise the commission up to 7% by selling more items though your affiliate code. But who knows when you’ll accomplish the target.
The best way to start with amazon is to writing their product reviews. And best way to pick a product is by browsing their top seller names and their products.

This way you get two things. One is the few dollars for writing reviews for advertisers and second is the update of your blog. Yeah , your blog is always up to date to get more traffic from Google and other search engines.
