After 2 years of transition, injuries, and very average play, Brett Favre returned to MVP form in 2001 under second year head coach Mike Sherman. Favre’s 32 touchdown passes was the 5th highest single season total of his career. The Packers also find their playoff form again, returning to the postseason for the first time since 1998. Favre’s signature performances included a 3 touchdown pass performance on Monday Night Football against the Redskins in the NFL’s return week after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, a 137.4 passing rating in a win over a the defending Super Bowl Champion Baltimore Ravens, two wins over young Brian Urlacher and the 13-3 Chicago Bears, a 14 point 2nd half comeback on Monday Night Football in Jacksonville (culminating in Favre’s 1st rushing touchdown since 1998), and an efficient 112.6 passer rating performance against the 12-4 49ers in the Packers’ first playoff win since the 1997 NFC Championship Game. As high as the highs of the 2001 season were, there were many frustrating lows. The Packers would get blown out 35-13 by an awful Vikings team in the Metrodome, and follow up each Bears win with embarassing losses to give control of the division back to Chicago. The first Bears win was followed up by a 23-20 home loss to the Chris Chandler lead 4-4 Atlanta Falcons. The second Bears win was followed up by 26-20 loss at the 5-7 Titans, highlighted by a 142 yard rushing performance by Skip Hicks, a runner with only 903 career rushing yards coming in …
VRE — better known as “Virtual Real Estate” is literally everywhere online.
That’s right. Everytime you do a search on whatever it is your searching for via the Internet you get a list of results. Within that list of results lye’s thousands, if not, millions of pages of Virtual Real Estate that is making someone out there on the WWW some handsome profits.
The question is… “what have you done in order to stake your Internet “VRE” claim so you too can enjoy some of that profit as well?”
If you haven’t started anything yet, that’s okay because I did a little research for you and came up with these “6 POWERFUL VRE(Virtual Real Estate) Business Models You Can Start Building In 2006 Using Google Adsense” so you too can benefit like the many others out there online.
The first VRE business model I’d like to talk about are — Article Directories.
VRE Model #1. Articles Directories.
Article Directories are in my mind are probably one of the best VRE business models on the web simply because they offer your audience and publishers Multiple Channels of information on any topic.
And the facts are, people come online for information.
So, what do Article Directories contain?
That’s right… Information! … and lots of it.
The other great benefit to Article Directories is that you don’t have to write a single word if you don’t want to because the whole purpose of starting your Article Directory in the first place is to get other people(we also call them authors) to submit their content for your readers and/or publishers to read and use.
Now, the Rule Of Thumb is simple when it comes to growing your Article Directory and that is… the more authors you recruit, the more your Article Directory will grow, filling it full of targeted information for your readers to digest and for publishers to use on their websites.
It gets better, so keep reading.
Did you know that the more pages you have within your Article Directory means… the more search engine food you’ll have for the search engines to come and index into their database which will then be displayed within the search engines search results.
Remember in the beginning of this article when I was talking about the search engine results being full of Virtual Real Estate. This is where your Article Directories webpages(or your Virtual Real Estate) will be listed for web surfers find.
This also means that you’ll receive a lot of FREE targeted search engine traffic to your Article Directory as it grows giving your authors FREE targeted traffic to their sites and keeping them happy, and at the same time, will be building your VRE nest egg on the WWW.
Are you starting to see the benefits to starting your own Article Directory on the Internet?
I hope so.
But don’t go anywhere just yet, I’m not finished.
There’s two more things I want to talk to you about before this part of the article series ends.
The first is RSS — better known as “Real Simple Syndication” and what RSS does is it allows you to syndicate your Article Directories content or just content in general through an RSS feed so that any reader and/or publisher who subscribes to a particular RSS feed within your Article Directory will receive ANY new updated content that is published… INSTANTLY!
The other benefit to a RSS feed is… lets say you have 1000 publishers subscribed to one of your RSS feeds and one of your authors submits a new article at your Article Directory, all those publishers who subscribed to that RSS feed will receive it once that RSS feed updates and when someone clicks on the link within that RSS feed to read the new article, guess where the visitor is sent to?
You guessed it, your Article Directory, with your Google Adsense ads(I’ll talk about that in a second) and whatever other related affiliate links you have on that webpage.
Now… for the BEST part, how-to make a $Profit$ with your Article directory.
I’m telling you, this is the easiest money you’ll ever make for simply supplying your viewers and the Internet(A.K.A. The Information Super Highway) with what it needs the most, Information!
How do you do it?
Heard of Google Adsense(as I mentioned just a minute ago), because if you haven’t, now you have.
What is Google Adsense?
Google Adsense is Googles affiliate program for publishers and how it works is it displays ads targeted towards the content on that particular webpage being viewed.
How do you get paid? Simple. Your reader just has to click on one of the ads within the Google Adsense ad box on that webpage and depending on what the topic is and keyword could pay some handsome commissions(usually between 35% to 50%).
And, guess what? You didn’t even have to do any selling OR follow-up.
Not bad and believe me those clicks add up Fast and by having the search engines returning frequently for regular indexing and having RSS feeds(remember, when someone clicks on the RSS feed link on someone elses website they get redirected back to yours with your Google Adsense ads on it and other affiliate links) for other publishers to use on their websites you’ll soon see your Google Adsense profits get Bigger and BIGGER!
Well, that’s it for now. So be sure to be on the look out for my next installment of the “6 POWERFUL VRE(Virtual Real Estate) Business Models You Can Start Building In 2006 Using Google Adsense”.
