How Does Twitter Make Money? 0

Posted on May 01, 2009 by admin

How does twitter make money? That website is such a powerhouse but I can not find a single advertisement anywhere on the website.

Everyone knows that Twitter is a one of a kind service and attracting all kinds of people. This brings me to an important point. The reason the people love the service so much is because one, it is a cool service, and two it is free. This brings me to my main point.

 

If you have a service that people like and it is free, then you will get people over the Internet to use that service as long as it holds value to them. I am not saying that you are going to get millions of visitors a month like Twitter but, you might get a lot of free traffic.

The big question is, what can you provide on the Internet that would attract people and make them come back to your website or blog. Information, a unique service like Twitter, free ebooks. The things you can provide to people on the Internet is endless. You just have to get creative and create it.

I have seen many blogs on the Internet that have given away a free service or information. Added advertisements to it once it was getting a lot of traffic. And start making money from it. 

Being consistent at providing new information to your customers is more important if you are providing people with information. Unlike with Twitter, Twitter is the actual service. They don’t need to update their srvice everyday to keep people coming in.

I have added a daily video blog to this blog  in order give it an aspect of daily updates to the people that read this blog. As readers see that I do update my blog on a daily basis, they are more likely to come back to the blog.

People like interaction and they like free. Twitter is both of these. You too can make a website that fits in this category as well.

Trust me, when they pull the trigger and either sell out or put some advertising on that website, they will make a lot. Or maybe they are planning something bigger? I guess we have to wait and see How Twitter will make money.

As for you, you can start making your free site now. If I can do it, so can you.

Cutting Images Out in Photoshop With the Pen Tool 0

Posted on April 24, 2009 by admin

I am going to start showing some Photoshop skills and one of the things that I had a hard time doing when i first started was cutting out images.

I used to do things like try to use the eraser to erase everything but the image I wanted. Later I learned how to get a precision cut when cutting images out of a picture. This is done using the pen tool.

In the video below I am going to show you how to get that perfect cut. This is a very good skill to know how to do and I think that it will help you out.

Photoshop and Online Business 0

Posted on April 24, 2009 by admin

When I started making money online almost 4 years ago, one of the skills I focused much of my attention on was building websites. Many people think that you have to be really smart to build websites. Just the though of building website makes people not want to make money online.

The way I saw it was, if I knew how to put up websites then I would have a greater chance of making money online. I believed this because it would give me the ability to get my thoughts on the Internet and test them out, implement, and turn them into money makers.

 

Out of everything that I have learned about making money online, building websites is by far my most favorite skill. I started to learn as much as I could about Photoshop and Dreamweaver and I found that it wasn’t hard at all to get a website on the Internet.

I learned everything about both programs on my own. I found information in books, on the Internet, and then just played around with the programs till I was better.

Photoshop and Dreamweaver are both major parts of making money online in my eyes. Unless your a company with lots of money that just needs a website, you more then likely don’t have the means of having one built. For most of the people who are starting an online business from home or just want to tap into all the different means of money on the Internet, it might be a better option to learn on your own because this costs much less.

On top of that, if you are really interested in making money on the Internet and want this to be your career, why wouldn’t you learn your trade.

I think that I need to address these two skills on this blog and get more people into it. I am going to start making both Photoshop and Dreamweaver videos to show you how easy it is and maybe get you involved.

Anyone can do this. It isn’t that hard. You don’t need to know the hard HTML and how to write it to start off. You can start off literally like you are just drawing a website on paper rather then coding a website with HTML. Later as you use the programs more and more, both your graphic design skills and website design skills will get better and you will naturally learn HTML.

So stay tuned to this blog and the You Tube videos and get some of this free learning I’mabout to start teaching. Lots of Photoshop and Dreamweaver videos coming soon. You are not going to want to miss some of this information.

Talk to You Soon

Twitter Is Getting Big! 0

Posted on April 23, 2009 by admin

I’m sure you have heard about it. Many of you probably still do not know what it is. Twitter is the “New and Cool” thing to be doing right now.

As if Americans did not already text enough. Now we can send text messages from both our cell phones and computers to make sure to stay active on both the Internet and phone networks. Twitter is the newest Technology to really have a massive impact like the other powerhouses MySpace, Facebook and others.

Although Twitter is quite different, the value it holds can be useful to anyone. Lawyers, friends, news stations, and businesses have all picked up on the technology and find it to be an effective and easy way to send out “instant message type messages” on the internet. These messages usually are in the form of “What are you doing?” but companies and businesses are using it to get the messages out that they need to get out.

When you sing up for Twitter, you have the ability to send a “Tweet” and everybody who follows your “Tweet” will get the messages. Imagine, it’s like talking to all your frined, coleugeas, audiance all at once!

I swear, technology is great but we are going to get lazy in the future! Either way, I have jumped on the Twitter Bandwagon and will be providing everyone with ideas and information about Twitter. If you want to follow my “Tweet” you can do so at http://twitter.com/biztechstop.

This techinology we are going to see more and more on websites geared toward making money online. It is like sending out an email except quicker and it has the potential to get many followers of your “Tweet” very easily. I guess we will soon see.

I will keep you updated on how I am using my Twitter account so that you too can follow along. Let’s test this service and see just how affective it is. Maybe we can come up with a fail proof blueprint to how to market with this service.

Stay tuned I will have more information coming soon.
