Quiet Monetization

Fri, Dec 28, 2007

Web 2.0 Tools

Shhhhhh…..

We are testing a brand new monetization method here at Web2Center.com and I bet you can’t even tell. Yes, we have four banners pointing to our partners but that is not new.

No, this slick new monetization tool allows you to incorporate an affiliate revenue stream seamlessly into any blog (or static html site - if you are still stuck there… eeeek!).

All you have to do is a bit of configuration and then plop a bit of code into your header and…voila!…you have a quiet, stealthy monetization method that is completely unobtrusive and, in my opinion, adds value to a certain aspect (or function) on your site.

So, why all the secrecy?

Well the TOS (terms of service) for this monetization tool make you swear not to point directly to it so that you do not force artificial actions (and no, I am not talking about Adsense or Kontera–come on, do you think I am that far behind?!).

Treasure Hunt or… Not

Rather than me telling you directly about it, I propose a little treasure hunt.

Just browse around a bit on this page (hint: or any page on our blog) and try to find this new feature. Interact just a little and you will find it. Also, the “tool” is brand new so the level of relevance is not as high as it will be soon.

If you get frustrated, or don’t like treasure hunts… here’s a couple of links for direct explanation from the creators of the service.

Publishers (bloggers) learn more here.

Advertisers (merchants) learn more here.

If you read our post titled “Don’t Forget Your Niche“, you will appreciate the power of this tool. Social media monetization is about putting revenue systems in place that are not like roadblocks or slaps in the face to your visitors and subscribers.

If you find something that can quietly monetize an aspect of your site without increasing the advertising “volume” then you have a winner.

Let us know if you have found other methods that are quitly monetizing your blog and bringing steady revenue.

Social marketing is all about getting your quality content and links to that content out there! I can’t help you write better posts (well maybe this will help you write a better post), but I can show you haw to create multiple microblogging backlinks all at once from right inside Facebook.

Are you interested?

Facebook is hot with online marketers right now due to the push by John Reese to get 5,000 friends added to his account, which i think he just accomplished.

So, why not do some power microblogging while you are floating around Facebook with this cool add-in from Hellotxt.

Check out this video and then head on over to Facebook and add me as a friend.

After you have your accounts set up on Hellotxt, here’s the Hellotxt app for Facebook.
