An Old Dog Learns Some New Tricks
Since the day I decided to get re-involved with the day-2-day happenings at C4x4, I've learned a lot about the internet and ways to use it to our benefit. From building traffic, to checking the html code, I've found exceptional websites that will help you increase revenue, give sound professional advice, and run diagnostics on your site. And amazingly enough, they'll do it for free!
One of my pet projects right now is working on ways to increase traffic to the magazine. Even though C4x4 is #1 on both Google and Yahoo when searching for "Christian" and "4x4" together or in combination, we still need to reach more folks for God, and have the funds to accomplish the task.
Another ongoing project is to increase revenue. One of the best revenue generators for our type of site (and a lot of others) seems to be Google's Adsense program. Those are the little text ads that you see either in banners or boxes literally everywhere you go on the web. I won't go into the details here, but basically, advertisers pay per click-through to their site.
Another revenue builder is to run affiliate ads. Each time a viewer clicks through your site to the affiliate's site and makes a purchase, they share the profit with you. Pretty cool.
We'll be adding more of the Adsense and affiliate ads to the C4x4 site as soon as webmonkey Jon has a little more time. But for the time being I've been experimenting with them here on this blog.
I'll share more as I learn more, so all of you clubs and forum leaders out there stay tuned.
So even if I've just learned enough to make me even more dangerous, I'm living proof that you can teach an old dog new tricks!
