Marketing - The Do's and Don'ts

Hey YE,

I just created a site listing what I think are the top 5 do’s and don’ts of making money online. Check out the site and tell me what you think. I also unsuspiciously included a few affiliate links

www.DefineMe.org

Thanks guys,

Joe

I'd be more then willing to help get you banned from adsense for breaking the rules and not buy your afiliate programs!


"While we wouldn't reccomend Adwords because of ClickFraud" - LOL! That was a great laugh! LOL! It's idiots like YOU who cause click fraud.

Oh you don't? Shall I remind you and tell everyone else?

"Please click some Adsense while your there".

I may go click some adsense.... maybe 30 or so. You'll enjoy the money... I mean life time ban.

spellcheck your sites!!

Another "Do": Always spellcheck your sites prior to publishing!! You can place this in the "Staying Professional" section of your "Do" page.

Definitely or is it "definately", "reccomend" or is it recommend? not easy is it? anyway: I would "definitely" not "recommend" webmasters request visitors to click on their adsense ads. I don't think you're doing this though as Chem suggests!!I can't seem to find the line "Please click some Adsense while your there" on your site. Has it been removed? ....... or was it ever there?

How about the biggest DO of them all ...
HAVE GOOD CONTENT!

Basically if you have that you will have to do very little marketing and still get popular fast.

it does kind of trick you in to thinking theres actually decent content on it. Not sure how i fell for it. Clever enough design but I still didn't click anything!

Oh yeh and can someone explain the fraud thing better?

I don't understand how "take surveys" is a marketing don't? When used correctly, surveys can be some of the best marketing available.

Yes, thats true. But many people try to make money by taking surveys online, but most survey companies I've tried don't pay up or aren't worth the time. The one company I posted on the site is one of the few legit sites I've found. I suppose gaining infomation from surveys is a good marketing strategy.
