I came into Internet marketing from two businesses that couldn't have been more different to the work that I do today. Continue Reading

No firm has done more to enable the monetization of the Internet than Google. Its AdSense system has gone through a lot of changes since it launched in 2003, but it's still the backbone of my online business, the channel around which much of my content is built. Continue Reading

Recently I was sent a link promoting a new Wordpress theme designed just for affiliate marketers and people wanting to build niche sites. Being the creator of the Socrates Theme, I had to take a look. Sure enough. Here come the copycats. I continue to be amazed at the utter lack of creativity in people who pass themselves off as "experts." Not only is the headline and a bunch of the copy on this new... Continue Reading

It's hard to believe that I have been in the AdSense program since its inception in June 2003. In that time, I have generated a substantial passive income by placing AdSense code on my pages. And I have enjoyed writing training materials that have helped others make money with AdSense. But one of the most frequently asked questions that comes my way centers on what percentage of each click Google pays to the AdSense publisher... Continue Reading

What is a premium WordPress theme? It is a ready-made-template designed to make the task of building a website easier. After all, it can cost a lot of money to have custom layout and design. Premium WordPress themes come in a number of styles. For example, some of them have fancy graphic sliders. The only problem with these is that you must continually come up with new graphics to accompany each article. Some themes are... Continue Reading

Pretty Link is a great WordPress plugin that provides an alternative to the other link shortening services out there. Like some of them, it helps you to shorten unwieldy URLs like affiliate links while also providing tracking, but Pretty Link takes things a step further and makes your links, well, pretty. And since the way it does this is by allowing you to use your existing domain name, it provides a nice little extra brand... Continue Reading

If I had a nickel for every person that wanted to build their own website, well, I'd have a LOT of nickels! The problem is that most people get stuck at the "building a website" part. They pay massive fees to have custom sites created. The spend a lot of money on incredibly complicated software. And they end up more frustrated than ever. That's why I have been hard at work on a solution that... Continue Reading

I've got a question for you. Please raise your hand if you sincerely wish to have a successful online business. Now keep your hand up if you have achieved this goal. Odds are most of the hands just went down. Why is that? It's not for a lack of quality material. Whether you have read my books or acquired material from other sources, you are probably pretty clear on the "how" to make money on... Continue Reading

I've been blogging since 2003. I started JoelComm.com as a personal site where I could write articles about whatever I wanted. I wrote about my family, my travels, my dog, movie reviews, computer games and whatever else crossed my mind. But as I began taking my blog more seriously, I began creating more original content that brought value to others. My expertise in online business, site monetization, iPhone applications and other areas proved valuable for... Continue Reading

Whenever I teach people about making money with AdSense, I make sure to let them know how easy it is to get started. Once they understand that their original content can translate to a revenue stream, they usually want to know what to do. For someone who has never blogged before, I recommend they set up a Blogger account. Not only is it easy to use, but it is also free. And since Google owns... Continue Reading

One of the most frequently asked questions that seems to surface again and again is "How do I start an online business with very little money?" Unlike brick and mortar businesses that frequently require retail or office space, inventory of products and an in-house staff, an online business can be run from home with no inventory and outsourced staff.

These are challenging times. There's no question about it. And it is during challenging times that we find out what we are made of. I've discovered there to be two types of people. The first type goes along with the current and feels unable to orchestrate a change. They don't believe their choices can make a difference. Essentially, they feel helpless to achieve their goals and dreams. When you hoping to build an online business... Continue Reading
