Have you ever wanted to advertise on sites like JohnChow.com, Problogger.net, or even ChrisBrogan.com but… you didn’t want to pay for the 125 x 125 advertising spots or a “Paid Review” blog posts? Well, then I found the perfect opportunity to hit them at the back door of advertising and only pay pennies! The secret is go through Google Adwords… that’s right Google has a section of advertising placement called “Placements“. With Google Placements you can choose a keyword to search such as “make money blogging” or you can search to see if a site offers Adsense placements on their site / feeds.

Here is the simple step process which is mentioned above:

• Log into Google Adwords
• Click the “New online campaign” towards the center middle
• Select “Start with placements“
• Next choose from; Browse categories, Describe topics, List URLs or Select demographics I tend to go with the “Describe topics“
• So say you choose “Describe topics” use a keyword like “make money blogging“
• You’ll then see a lot of sites that have to deal with blogging
• Select ones that you know of and a few with high traffic
• Next place your bid and if your bid is high enough to get displayed (along with page quality) then BAM! you are in there and all you a paying is the cost per click that you opted to pay

This is a great idea to set up if you were to sign up with Hydra Networks and create a few landing pages for your traffic to land on.

Thats right you can advertise your Facebook profile or even a blog or website by putting an image / logo on the shirt that a cellphone camera can recognize. That way when someone snaps a picture of the image / logo, the phone automatically pulls up the website, blog or profile that person has chosen to advertise. It could be your website, MySpace profile, Facebook profile, blog or whatever. Visit w-41.com to see what they have to offer the prices are pretty reasonable only $49 for t-shirts and $56 for sweatshirts.

Google is having a contest where they’ll partner up with a handful of businesses to improve their website’s ROI. The contest ends July 17th, 2008 so hurry up and enter your site! Below is a video that explains the contest a little better.

I wasn’t too long ago while back I came across a site that I would love to have if I only had $22,000 to buy it now. I am talking about the site known as Bla.st the International Free Advertising Network and Web Directory. I believe it is a great site with a lot of potential. The site is for sale at the well known SitePoint Marketplace. Feel free to check out the auction post.
