How to use Google Alerts to update money making websites

By


Building blogs on a specific topic in order to make money online with advertising and affiliate programs is very trendy. Although the idea to make money easy with online sites to terms and projects that need little maintenance and attention, create multiple blogs on various topics can be profitable but make a lot of work. But with the help of Google Alerts, can become easier and lose less time looking for content.

I understand that I tell you that they can create blogs, almost mini-sites, where the constant updating is not necessary and the search engines bring visitors. I agree, and if the blogs are well optimized for the keywords. But we also know that visitors from search engines typically convert well on Google Adsen, as are the usual visitors of our blogs that convert the best affiliate programs. There are many affiliate programs available and to me, are far more valuable than Google Adsense. A sale or lead to an affiliate program gives values well above Google Adsense and can trigger our gains.

If we update our blogs, rather than mini-sites with some posts, we have increased exponentially the ability to earn money online.

Building and maintaining multiple blogs is updated quite laborious and takes us a long time. Write a good post or news can lead a good time. Usually it is necessary to research data, establish facts and to find images. Moreover, mastered several thematic and niche markets is not easy and also cost us time. And if we create multiple blogs, many will be on topics that dominate the background and we are still developing. This does not mean it is not difficult to create quality material.

When mastered a subject, it is because we really are fans of something like this is a theme or activity that we perform. And with this easily read daily sites and magazines, we watch the news and know where to find information, talk about it with friends, we attend forums, etc.. But if we have 10 blogs on various topics, we would lose time to read and look for news and information would be immense and'd be no time to update them.

I have several blogs on various topics. Some domino, taste, and I follow. Others are just products I use, but not necessarily dominate everything. Others are just existing. On the other hand, I work from 8 to 18h it takes me a long time. Although you can read some sites and have ideas during the day, when I get home I already know what I write.

Some of these blogs already have a structure and text on products and topics, but with updates and news of the market, they eventually get more visitors and earn regular readers.

And here, finally, comes the Google Alerts. As we realized, after such introduction, I use Google alerts to stay abreast of news and updates on these topics.

Google Alerts is a tool from Google that allows us to receive information about new events and updates on one (or several) keyword (s) by e-mail. Suppose we want to know new instances of Wordpress. As we know Google is constantly "scanning" the web and where is an update or a new text on the word Wordpress sends us an alert.

I can read the emails on the phone and respectively notifications Google Alerts. At home, just quickly reread the news or new information, make a few more quick searches (sometimes Google Alerts not picking the original source) and write my text. Sometimes it takes 10 to 15 minutes, let alone the hours (or more) that a post like this might take.

Google Alerts

To use this tool you do not need Google account, although it is advisable as it makes it easy to manage our alerts. To use Google Alerts just go on home page Google, About Google, then the tools and services from Google. By choosing Alerts or Alerts will appear in a page with a box equal to the of the picture fill the box we have several options:

Search terms - just enter the keywords you want. It's like in Google search. If we use an expression rather than a single word (common today) such as mobile Internet, we create an alert for "mobile internet" and one for mobile Internet, because the results will be different. In this case the mobile internet is able to give many uninteresting results because it will send all new cases with the two words do not necessarily follow the text.

Type / Type - here you can choose only news, blogs, web, understanding, videos and groups. I usually choose comprehensive as it covers everything.

How often - in this case is how many times and can choose where Google has a new occurrence, once a day or once a week.

Deliver to / delivered - we can choose to receive by mail or feed. I use e-mail.

Google Alerts not picking everything

We need to get some attention and not expect that Google Alerts pick on all new mobile internet or Wordpress, because there are several ways to talk about these issues. One thing I noticed is that Google sends alerts and updates of sites that constantly scans and that "thinks" that are updated regularly. A few days I received an instance of a news published in the Frog on a study, but did not get the occurrence of the study published days before.

By this I mean that we always have, from time to time, seek out new information and news on the topics of our sites. Because we do not lose out anything!

Have been using Google Alerts? and for this purpose?

Epage,

I have learned that I SHOULD be using Google Alerts when I am under construction for a new Hub. The Internet changes so quickly. This should be one of the first steps in the research and development of a new Hub for every dedicated professional.

Linking to the best videos and information is needed in order to keep your Hub evergreen.
