To give you an example, I am trying to get the Residuals and Royalties blog ranked as high as possible for the term “make money online” – which also happens to be one of the toughest keywords in existence!  So, in order to size up my competition I used a tool to count my competitor’s inbound links.  The results were pretty disheartening, many of the top ranking blogs and websites in the MMO (Make Money Online) niche have tens of thousands of inbound links.  Which means if I want to climb the Google ladder – I have a lot of work ahead of me!

The tool that I use to count inbound links is called Yahoo Site Explorer.  I simply paste the URL of my desired website or blog and I get an immediate count of their overall inbound links.  Yahoo Site Explorer also provides you with the total amount of pages a blog or website has.  Below is a screen shot of the #1 ranking blog for the term make money online.  Notice that this blog has 25,175 inbound links!  Needless to say, it might take me an eternity to garner this many inbound links. 

This mass quantity of inbound links won’t stop me from pursuing these keywords, but it does give me a barometer on the difficulty of the task ahead.  To put this in to comparison, this next screen shot shows the current inbound links for Residuals and Royalties.  I have 634 total so far!
So, no matter what your target keywords are – take some time to research your competition.  This is a great way to get a handle on what you’ll need to do to rank #1 in your particlar niche.

   The term “make money online” is searched between 600,000 and 1,000,000 times a month on Google.  Needless to say – being on the front page of Google for this search term would garner your website or blog a ton of traffic.  At the current time, my Residuals and Royalties blog is on page 39 of Google for the term “make money online“.  My goal is to see how high I can get in the rankings.  People like Griz, Alan Liew and Carl Ocab have dominated the front page for years and I don’t expect to get to thier level.  But I would like to see how high I can get.  I won’t tell you how I am climbing the search engines – but I will let you watch me.  Every so often, I will update this posting with a screenshot of my current ranking on Google for “make money online“.  As of today, Wednesday, November 4th – you can see my current status below.  So let the experiment begin!

I found a new, legit way to make money online and build residual income by creating your own people search engine and referring your friends and family to use this search engine.  While there are plenty of different money making methods and programs from your online searching, how does someone know which of these systems actually pays you for referrals?  Well, I can tell you that the Acme People Search Engine program, designed by Tissa Godavitarne actually pays for your referrals.  I just earned $125 for basically doing nothing.

The Acme People Search Engine program Program has become quite popular lately and this program is 100% real. So how does Tissa Godavitarne’s program work?  The program isn’t complicated. When you sign up, you will get access to the back office (control panel) of Tissa Godavitarne’s program to set up your own people search engine. The People search engine is a website where Internet visitors can use to find people by name, address, phone number and email.

No technical knowledge and experience needed to set up a people search engine through the program. You just have to follow instructions, click the mouse and a new people search engine will be automatically created for you.

You would then place ads from different reputable advertising networks such as Google AdSense, Clickbank, HD Publishing and Reunion onto your people search engine.

Once you have inserted all the ads, the people search engine is ready to generate revenue for you. Tissa will advertise your people search engine on Google to help you make money for the first month.

Besides generating revenue from the ads displaying on your search engine, you will also get paid for referring people to join Tissa Godavitarne’s program. Tissa is paying generous commission in his referral program. $125 referral commission will be credited to your account immediately after you sign up for Tissa Godavitarne’s program. You just have to refer three more people who compete the 3 step setting up process to reach the minimum payout of $200 and withdraw the entire commission.

This isn’t a get-rich program that you can sit back and watch the money roll in after setting up everything. Many people have joined Tissa Godavitarne’s program and quite a number of them are making a consistent income now. They shared their story and experience in forums and blogs. All these people who have gotten good results with the program have one thing in common, they put in time and work to make their search engine generate revenue.  If you do this, you can make residual income from home and start making money online.

So, once you get into the Tissa Godavitarne’s program, you do need to work on it to see results. They key is to generate as much traffic as possible for your search engine to make the most money. Traffic comes from marketing. So, you need to keep on working on advertising and marketing for your search engine in order to generate traffic and income.

The first month you don’t have to worry too much about the marketing your people search engine, as Tissa will advertise for you for the first month free to help you get traffic, make money online and build residual income. After that you can choose to continue the service with a monthly charge of $29.95. The program also teaches you a number of other methods of marketing your searh engine. You can go for the $29.95 paid marketing after one month and use also other available marketing methods together to maximize your traffic. Alternatively, you can stop the $29.95 paid marketing and use all other free and low cost methods you’ve learned to market your people search engine.
