Link Bait

Link Bait or Link Baiting is perhaps the most important part of getting links to your website. The more links that point to your website the better you will rank in search engines. The better you rank in search engines the more money you will make.

So how are you going to get other webmasters to put a link on their site that points to your site? You don’t want to spam people, you don’t want to send out 1000 emails and beg for links. You need to learn the delicate art of link baiting .

There are many different ways to go about link baiting… jimwestergren.com has a great list of link baiting ideas:

* Make a valuable resource (lists, special reports, history of, how to, etc.)
* Interview (e-mail/phone) prominent people and publish it.
* Build a useful tool
* Write an interesting article
* Run a newsworthy ?event? such as a contest
* Test something new that has not been done before
* Be the first in doing something on the internet
* Write something controversial
* Be the first to write the latest news in your niche
* Be the first to expose a scammer
* Disagree with an authority
* Write some funny humor
* Make an interesting picture
* Be the first to research and document something
* Make a theme, plugin or piece of software
* Make a tool that others can put on their sites but that links to you
* Make a joke about a known person
* Make a resource that is just in time for a major event
* Write an outrageous theory and back it up with logics
* Write useful comments on something that is happening
* Give something valuable for free
* Coin a new acronym in your niche and get people to talk about it
* Become an expert in your niche and write valuable information

The goal of any of these tactics is the same. You want to get links to your website. Think about what kind of sites that you currently link out to and why…

For instance, one of the websites that is the king of link baiting is statcounter.com. Every one of my websites has a link that points to them. That is true link baiting at work! This is an example of giving away a service for free. The only way that I can check my stats is to have a link on my site that points to their site.

Well… now lets be a little bit more practical. Most of us do not have the skills to code an online stat counter or give away a free service. We need to think of easier ways to make link bait.

Try a few of these things on your website:

1. Give away free awards or images that link back to your site.
2. Make a valuable resource of information.
3. Publish a piece of breaking news.
4. Write something very controversial.
5. Make something really funny.
6. Make something really unique.

If you have a blog, link baiting can be pretty easy… Make sure that you know your target audience and then use social bookmarks like digg.com and reddit.com to make your post go viral.

Make Link baiting fun. Try to come up with good bait and catch yourself more fish. Keep track of which link bait tactics work the best. Keep track of link bait that fails. In the end you will probably come up with one or two great ideas and get a lot of links.

Another thing to consider for link baiting is to learn how to code webmaster tools. This may seem hard but if you take the time to do it then you could make really powerful link bait.

Putting Yuwie in the Past

I haven’t had the time or motivation to keep up with the world of Yuwie. If you are looking to make serious money online I don’t recommend joining their website. There are many other opportunities on the internet to increase passive income.

With that being said, I am still a member and still make monthly earnings. This is one of the main reasons why internet programs and websites are in my opinion the best way to achieve passive income. Every idea or scheme that you put time into will not be a complete success. Some will make more money than others. The trick is to keep on going, keep on learning, and keep on experimenting with new ideas, programs, websites, etc. While you are learning new things and starting new websites, you will most likely be collecting from your old ones.

The internet is a beautiful thing. If you have the time and patience to sit down and learn a little bit about how it works, you can be worldwide within minutes. It is fully possible to start a business one day and be selling to thousands of customers from around the world the next day.

So if you came to this site wondering anything about Yuwie, I am sad to say that I’m done talking about it. However, I will keep the domain, I will keep all the old posts, and I plan to expand this website and keep blogging about making money online. Look forward to more coming soon.

Stay Positive and Don’t Give Up

So you made less than a dollar? That looks about the same as when I first started… one thing that I cannot do is: get the referrals for you… but I can teach you what to do if you are willing to work at it.

Ask yourself these questions: what have I tried so far? What has worked and what hasn’t? What else can I learn? Don’t give up so quick, you might regret it in the future. Yuwie is going to be a very successful site and the people who joined early (you and I) are going to be the ones making a lot of money.

I have been getting messages from people who are just not happy with how many referrals they are getting, or how much money they made for the last month… don’t worry about it, stay positive!

Stick with Yuwie and you will be surprised how fast everything starts to pick up. Yuwie is still an infant and its growth has been staggering! The hard part is in the beginning, learning, testing, and experimenting. Using Yuwie is like dominoes, it starts small but grows and grows. Just think about it… when you first start trying to build a referral tree, your team consists of just you, as soon as you recruit 1 person, your team has doubled in size! Two more people and it doubles again! It gets easier and easier to make more and more money.

Keep at it and learn new ways to improve everyday. The ones who invest right now, while Yuwie is still young, will be the successful ones down the road. Even if you don’t make more than a couple dollars a month right now… imagine that increasing to over 1,000 or 10,000 dollars??

The Importance of Coaching Referrals

If you are serious about making money with Yuwie, then you need to become a coach. Every coach has his own style and you are going to find yours. Some are more hands on, others sit back and give advice when its needed most. Either way, it is your duty to mentor everyone in your down line.

If want to walk away with some decent earnings from Yuwie, remember that you have an obligation to your down line… When you bring someone to this site, make it your responsibility to help them get the ball rolling. And don’t think of this as a burden, a smart person would realize that it is in their best interest for their down line to make a lot of money. Why? Obviously, when it comes to Yuwie’s 10 level system, the more your down line makes, the more you make.

So help your down line and encourage them to do the same. This means, sending the people you refer comments and messages. Give them helpful tips. Always remember that Yuwie is set up with a ten level system! Its therefor extremely important for you to teach your level one well enough so that the information and knowledge can reach your level ten. And if your level one can’t do it, then its up to you to reach deep into your referral tree and be a good coach.

Become a great leader and your referral tree grows exponentially! Become a great teacher and your page views grow exponentially! Teach others how to become great leaders and teachers and your wallet grows exponentially!

A little tip: Having a hard time coaching your referrals? Don’t know what to tell them or how to say it? Just send them to this site and I will do my best to teach them everything they need to know.
