My blogger friend Gyutae is having a contest for T-shirts and $100 in cash. All you gotta do is pick the right winner and write a blog post about it. (It seems like there’s so many contests these days, you could probably make a living just entering all of them)

My vote goes to Gyutae’s Winning the Web since he’s always coming up with new contests. He’s blog got a big 200 RSS reader jump from his contest on JohnChow.com and JohnCow.com. (Amazing!) (You should take look at Bloggin-Ads.com by Mike too, he picked up about the same in about the same period! I think these 2 bloggers are really growing their blogs explosively. I remember when Zedomax started out almost a year and half ago and I had 200 RSS readers in like 1 year, not just couple months.)

Why am I posting this? Well, honestly, I can’t even afford a T-shirt right now as I invested all my money in SiteHoppin.com. (Well, for the beers I need to drink to be drunk to develop the site…right, it’s like the Drunken style in Kung Fu, you can’t master the art without actually putting yourself in it) I wanna win a T-shirt so I can go wear it proudly in downtown San Francisco. (j/k… I’ve been in front of a computer for so long for last couple months, I don’t even know the last time I went shopping…)

The real funny part is picture from TylerCruz here:

Also check out Gyutae’s post on 11 ways to maximize your blog subscribers:

• Follow a set posting schedule
  Following a set schedule will help your readers connect to your blog and learn when to expect new posts. This usually means more subscribers to your blog.
• Provide great content
  In the end, it’s all about great content. Without it, all of your marketing efforts will fall short of meeting your goals for feed subscribers. Make this a priority and the subscriptions will come.

In the end, I think Gyutae is winning the web by far. You can tell by looking at his blog and the number of subscribers he has picked up within the last month or so. This blog should be exploding by next month if it isn’t already.

I just wanted to give our readers heads up the latest buzz from Zedomax.Net. Our new QuarterWiki has been selling pages like hotcakes after a review on John Chow dot com. It seems that bad publicity has actually helped us sell more pages. 400 pages sold within last 10 hours. Get your pages before all the good ones for your niche get taken!Here’s a little description of what it is for those of you new to this:

The Quarter Wiki is a new paid online encyclopedia where you can buy your own page for just a quarter.

Unlike Wikipedia, you can add videos, RSS Feeds, Google Ads, and GoogleMaps to a page on the QuarterWiki.

More simply, QuarterWiki filters spam by charging a small fee for each page so you don’t have to deal with it.

To get started with QuarterWiki, sign up for an account and search for your desired words you’d like to purchase.

I was stumblin’ the other day and came across this really cool site called Scribd, where you can upload your documents and share with the world. What does it do? It makes your PDF or Word Doc file visible on the internet.

Okay, this might not be the best site to publish your secret ingredient to making the pizza sauce. But if you already have powerpoint, Word Doc, or PDFs of your pamphlets, booklets, or e-books that promote your products, you might want to consider uploading them here. Google does search PDFs to a certain extent so it’d be wise. And with GoogleDocs, I bet Google will be able to search all types of documents.

I’ve been getting into monetizing blogs lately and wrote a little article on selling text link ads on your blogs. Check it out and you can take control over the money you make on your blog and increase your profits!

You’ve probably seen bunch of sites that you can sign up for to sell text link ads on your site. I’ve personally tried Text-Link-Ads.com. Although I have made money through their system, I probably only made $200 a month at the most. The problem with these sites is that they take 50% of your sales! That’s a lot of money to give away if you ask me. Plus, they only sell on monthly basis, so you are not guaranteed a steady income.

The solution? Sell you text link ads on your blog as “lifetime” links or get your advertisers to commit to at least one year. That way, you get a large sum of money beforehand. Even if you sell one text link for $1000, you are better off putting that cash in your bank and not worrying about it rather than having to check every month how much you are making.

In other words, SELL your text link ads on your blog. Have a link to a simple explanation how advertisers can buy text link ads on your site. This keeps your life simpler since you only have to place the link once. Set it and forget it.

Here’s a guideline for selling links on your blog:

1. Offer any text links for $20 to $25 a pop. That’s very low for industrial average but you set it and forget it.

2. Offer “site-wide” text links for $1000 a pop. This site-wide link would be placed either on your sidebar or your footer. By offering a permanent links, you offer the advertiser a feature above all the other text link ad sites.

With this method, I’ve made more money within a week than all the money I made through Text-Link-Ads.com. I am not trying to bag on their policies but with the recent penalizations by Google, the best way to sell your links is to sell them directly to your customers and gain 100% profit.

Take control of your blog and monetize those text links that many many SEO companies are after. If you make money, make sure to ping this post by writing about it.

To sum up, think of how much money you can make if you sold 100 lifetime links for $1000. That’s $100,000 in your pocket and you can re-invest that money into advertising for your blog so you get more traffic and raise your PageRanking.

Don’t become a slave to one of those Text Link Ad companies that rip your money. (50%!!! Fu*k that. I will just sell my own links.) TAKE CONTROL of your blog today and MAKE MONEY ONLINE selling direct to your customers, readers, whatever.

P.S. I apologize for those text link ad companies, but I am telling the truth and you guys are selling text links off innocent bloggers who don’t know better.

Think about it? A text link ad company sells YOUR LINKS, not theirs. All they are did is setup a system to make 50% off your links. YES, again, YOUR LINKS!

Hey, now we are offering web traffic services on Zedomax.Net. We can bring you about 300 to 500 extra visitors per day. You can see an example of it on Mike’s post on Bloggin-Ads. How much?  Just $200 for a month.  You try it for 1 month and if you don’t get at least extra 10,000 visitors, we will refund your money.

If you need a jump start for your new blog or online e-store, we could probably do it free. But if you want us to do it right so you get residual traffic, paypal us $200 at max [at] zedomax.com and shoot us an email of your website URL.  We will try to keep it low in the beginning, maybe something like $200 per month. That’s about 2 cents per visitor at 300 visitors per day. Not too shabby if you can’t figure out how to get traffic to your site.  We will even add you to blogroll on Zedomax.com as an extra bonus.  (That’s over 6000 pages of SEO links!)

Guess what I did all day today? I made a new logo for Zedomax Network. Actually the logo itself isn’t new. I made the logo when I was 9. (That’s almost 20 years ago!)

I just put slightly different colors to it. Well, any comments on it appreciated. Bring ‘em on!

I am really trying to monetize this blog lately due to my recent joblessness. I will be incorporating soon so that’d be good for taxes, huh?

Check out the new paid wiki services we provide here. I am also working on this new site with a Berkeley professor and my Real Estate friend Josh, but maybe I shouldn’t tell anybody yet.  Shhh… don’t tell anyone yet.

I need to hire people but don’t have that much money, anyone wanna guest blog? Lol…you know that was a joke right? Well, not the guest blog part. If anyone wants to guest blog, send your article and images to zedomax [at] gmail.com. (You gotta be a blogger though.)

P.S. Check out our latest web traffic, we are getting over 450K visitors per month! Too bad, I am not so marketing savvy like John Chow but gettin’ there…

I think we are going to start posting more on making money online and how to monetize your blog. Well, not on here, but on Zedomax.Biz. check it out if you haven’t. I made it so I can say some ramblings on how to make money online. It’s not going well because I am always jumping from blog to blog constantly but will try to post at least one per day. It’s actually a blog/social network made using Wordpress and Pligg. Go figure, huh?
