For my eHow, HubPages and InfoBarrel friends. We are always looking for ways to promote our articles, boost our page ranks and increase page views. Here is a really easy, fast way to get more links posted to your articles and maybe even earn a few dollars.
Xomba.com has a great little website (okay, maybe not so little) where you can post Xombytes and Xomblurbs. Corny, I know. But check it out. For each article you want to promote you can write a Xombyte, which is a minimum of 150 words about your article or a related topic with your link. You can also post a Xomblurb with a link to your article. Xomblurbs are a minimum of 50 words. As for earning on Xomba, you can plug in your Adsense publisher ID and start earning 50% of the revenue for your pages. In all, it is a good deal. They even have a referral program. This is a deal you don't want to miss out on.
Go to Xomba.

The eHow Experiment: Update 11/11/2009
11/11/2009
I am earning approximately $4 per 1,000 views. In order to earn $1,000 per month at this rate or return, I would need to have 250,000 views per month. My current average is about 425 views per day, or 12,750 views per month. I have a ways to go. However, page views are not the only deciding factor. Keywords play an important role. Even though I am averaging 425 views a day, which is barely more than I was getting a month ago, my average daily earnings have significantly increased, going from an average of $1.02 per day to $1.69 per day as of today, for the month of November. What is the increase in daily earnings due to? I believe a number of things.
First, I am taking the time to market my articles. I post on Buzz, Stumble Upon, Delicious and submit my URLs to the search engines. Posting those back links is crucial.
I have spent numerous hours in the eHow community, reading and rating articles, and building my network. Even though most eHowers don’t make a lot of money off views from other members, the comments help to increase page rankings. (if they are made with SEO friendly wording).
I have written a number of new articles: 41 new articles between 10/16 and 11/11/2009. Many of these articles, which I have done SEO research on, are beginning to earn.
I have also continued to market older articles on Twitter and by posting links in newer articles. Some of my ‘dormant’ articles are getting views again, and earning a little bit as well.
I took a few days and resubmitted my old articles to the search engines. Page rank is a competition among web publishers. Just because you are high on the list one day, doesn’t mean you won’t get bumped was down in the results the next. Stay on top of your Internet marketing, and don’t forget to take care of your eHow babies.
My conclusion is that earnings will increase with more articles and marketing. Don’t take the poke and hope method, in other words don’t guess with your keyword selection. Even if you are writing articles about topics that interest you, do your best to pull down the best keywords. Use them in your title, in the first paragraph and throughout the article, with a saturation of about 3% keywords.
My next phase is to blog every single article in my library, as well as post Xombytes about my articles on Xomba, and hubs on HubPages. I am hoping this will increase my page views and earnings significantly.
Check back soon for my next update on the eHow experiment.

What is the Best Sandwich You Have Ever Eaten?
If you have been writing online, you know that getting backlinks to your articles boosts your page rank, and therefore your income. As an online writer, I spend hours not only writing, but also promoting my articles and pages through forums, Yahoo Answers, social bookmarking sites and submitting to search engines. I have a routine down, but I still need to make more money. If you need to earn more money as well, I want to help you. I will be posting a number of questions for you to answer on one of my favorite rev share writing sites. I have chosen this site simply because we can all benefit (i.e. make more money) if we work together. If you are not a member, it is very easy to join. As a member you can earn money from your articles, from members who join under your referral code, and from links you post to other members' articles.
The question I have posted is, "What is the Best Sandwich You Have Ever Eaten?" To answer this question, click on the link and write your answer. If you are not a member of HubPages, you will need to join first. I will be tracking answers, blogging on the answers and writing articles about the answers. And, to your benefit, I will be posting links to your answer so that you can earn more money. The more backlinks each page has, the higher the search engine ranking. Please be sure to use good keywords/tags.
If this works according to plan, we can all increase our earnings. I will be posting a number of questions on HubPages in the coming weeks, so please keep checking back and answer as many as you can.

Quantity and Quality Content
To be financially successful as an online writer, you have to be a writing machine. That is, assuming you've already learned about page ranking, anchored backlinks and SEO keywords. And you are putting that knowledge to work.
Your goal is to earn money from the articles you write. Think of each article as a separate deposit into an investment account. Obviously, the more deposits you make, the more interest income you will earn. That is a very simplistic view of the quantity of work you publish.
What about the quality? If each article is a deposit, then each deposit would be for a specific value. If you are publishing poorly written content, or content of little or no interest to anyone except yourself, the market value of your work is very low. You may as well be writing in a personal journal. On the other hand, if you are producing high interest, well written work, the monetary value is higher. That value will increase as you produce more quality content because your readers will begin to trust you, and read more of your work.
Quantity plus quality is the winning combination, and should be what you are striving for as a writer.

More on SEO Keywords
I've received several requests to explain more about SEO keywords in newbie terms. My new article, Clued in on SEO Keywords, will help you start using those keywords to build up the page rank of your articles and increase views. As you continue to publish more quality content using the principles that you are learning, your earnings will continue to increase.
I'm sure you're wondering how long it takes to actually start seeing a substantial income. There isn't a definitive answer. It depends largely on the quality and quantity of your content. Staying motivated is crucial if you are going to be a successful online writer. If you're just starting out, you may only see a few dollars the first month. Don't get discouraged. Your income will grow if you stick with it. There are several online writers making thousands of dollars each month. There is no reason you can't be one of them. Hang in there, keep writing, and writing. And writing.
Tomorrow: Quantity plus Quality
