December 24, 2007 | Written by annliu | Filed Under Programs & Networks
The Internet is famous for driving new and innovative ideas and technologies. Just like you, I am always looking out for new ways for my readers to make more money online with less effort.
Now, a new innovative technology has been developed and it is geared to rival the Google AdSense program, today, I am so happy to share with you one of the Internet’s newest innovations, Pay-Per-Play Advertising (PPP) - It’s an advertising channel that is set to take the web by storm because of the size and scope (backed by one of the BIG 5 search engines).
PPP program allows you to earn revenue on every single person that visits any of your websites, at any time..
In the other words, the company running the program is looking for more web sites to add their 5 Second Commercials to and they are willing to PAY YOU to do just that.
It is a way to let you earn revenue on 100% of your website traffic by tapping into a network of big name advertisers like Burger King, Taco Bell, Harley-Davidson and HBO.
So this is the event you should know, believe it or not, PPP advertising will become a world wide business media event. So check them out here, you might have just what they are looking for.
As you know, Pay Per Click advertising (Google Adsense) only pays you on the small percentage of website visitors that actually click on an advertisement.
Now “Pay Per Play” advertising will pay you on 100% of your website traffic… NO CLICKS NECESSARY!
Pay Per Play caters to an audience that is larger than radio, television and print media combined!
Here is how this program works:
1. Get your own Pay-Per-Play account and get your own code, sign up right away at zero cost.
2. Simply pasting a small piece of Javascript code to every page of your website (you can run PPC ads on as many as websites you have) that you want your visitors to hear a brief 5 second audio advertisement.
3. Each visitor will hear only 1 ad. Each time an ad is played, you are paid.
Placing audio advertisements on your website is an easy way to earn more money without getting additional visitors to your website.
Best of all - you don’t need to spend any dime, NOTHING… NADDA… ZIP… Not one dime. It’s free to become a partner and place the PPP Ads on your site and then you will earn revenue from the ads that play.
This is a limited opportunity be sure to get sign up now, then add the small Javascript to your web pages.

Affiliate marketing is one of the best ways to promote, sell products online and earn extra money, there are many people in this world are looking for the opportunities to get involve into this type of business, unfortunately because we all living in different countries, so each of those countries have different kind of reputations, no matter you are living in the poor or rich, good or bad places from West, Middle East, South East Asia and Asia countries etc.
Because of the limitations and certain type of conditions, many affiliate networks don’t includes those countries into their payout list for whatever the reasons they believe, which bring away the opportunities for lots of people to make money online.
Now with Click2Sell’s launched - you get chance to get on the affiliate marketing train and start your own internet business.
Advanced tracking is one of its attractions for vendors and affiliates - Vendors are able to see how many views, visitors and sales their salesletter has, and track conversion rate, refund rate and all income. And also you can create different tracking channels to test different traffic sources and its profitability.
You can also track which keywords bring sales. All merchants and affiliates are able to track every keyword which brings them views, visitors and sales on a Keyword Report. “You will know which keywords were used to find your website, how many visitors they brought and how many sales were made - for each separate keyword.”
The other cool thing is tracking your pay-per-click campaigns is also possible. “All members can see which keywords used on Google Adwords, Yahoo! Search Marketing and FindWhat bring the most visitors and sales - you can even track the conversion ratio for each keyword. You will be able to track every aspect of your affiliate’s performance - how many views, visitors and sales each of them bring, how many affiliates promote your product, how many of them are active.”
