Today’s Topic for “I Don’t Have Time for BS” Wednesdays: What Makes a Search Expert? What Makes ANYONE an Expert?
You may remember a few weeks ago when I said I was planning on writing a guide to how to spot a phony expert. I intended to do it right when I thought of it, but the whole issue struck a nerve with me.
I mean, here it is, the dawn of an age where communication is the most open, immediate and interactive as it has ever been in the world. Despite economic barriers that still exist for some, in relation to even having access to the web, via cell phone or not, this is still an age of unprecedented free flow of information.

Part One of this step is Choosing Your Topic, otherwise known as “What the Hell Am I Going to Write About?”
With choosing your topic, you want to strke a balance between writing about a popular topic and not writing about the same thing everyone else is writing about. For example, I sometimes write a lot about Google, RSS Feeds and Yahoo, and Alexa Internet.
Now, a lot of people write about Google, or Yahoo, here and there about RSS Feeds, and not so much about Alexa. But I picked those three topics because they are things people want to know about. Then I took those topics and illustrated how I solved a problem I had or a challenge I was facing with one of those topics.
So get out a piece of paper (or launch a text file), and put at the top, the heading “There Should Be a Book About” and think of topics related to your product, service or web site that has to do with that title. Then write down five things you think there should be a book about.

So to summarize:
You need to invest in your business. You will have to put in money, time, knowledge, or whatever else of value you can come up with, and eventually, a combination of all these things.
Also:
If you want other people to invest in your business, you’ll need to set up a value exchange. The results you get will hinge upon the level of value you give for the level of value you get.
So who is John Galt?
I can’t answer that for you. You’d have to read Atlas Shrugged for yourself, and decide on your own. That link will give you the ability to find the book at the best price that the market bears.

Well, that was fast.
Remember this morning when I said that search engines could buy my love? Well, I’ve been bought again.
Too bad for Yahoo, MSN and Amazon that this came from Google. You can read the article in Internet Week. Here’s what the announcement said today at Blogger.
Did you know that you can turn your blog into a source of revenue with Google’s AdSense program?
Would you like to sign up?

When the whole banner ad thing tanked, before the popularity of text ads evolved, I really started to miss my extra income. At the time, $300 extra dollars a month was like getting an extra check. I hadn’t gotten a good high tech job yet, and at the time I was working a temp position at a place where I never dreamed I’d be hired permanently and getting a salary that made an extra $300 a month look like chump change in less than a year.
So I started looking around online for a way to make extra money. I’d ben a part of Allen Says Warror site since 1998, probably – there’s an ebook with a testimonial from me. I was going by my full name, Atinuke Abayomi-Paul, before I figured out that no one on earth can say my name properly. 
I lost my membership info to that site no less than five times in the space of a year and a half, and each time, Allen patiently re-sent my information. (Now he has an automated system – I had to re-create my reseller information again a few minutes ago.) The last time he sent it out to me, he was particularly nice to me, which inspired me to choose his products to resell.

The first money I made online was really non-marketing.
I was around in the days when you could build a really good site, build up its content, and host banners for other people, filling your remnant space with non-exclusive ads from companies that had good run-of-network CPM payouts. I cashed in on impressions only for our main sites back then. $300 – $600 ( See an archive of the main site my various partners and I ran from before we changed the domain name.)
We were also briefly part of About.com’s network of poetry sites. Ah, those were the days. Shortly after about two years of constant checks from advertising, rates dropped and the money wasn’t worth the quality difference for our visitors to continue to display banner ads. Around that time, I started looking for alternatives.
Can you still make money from advertising? Sure, but until you build up to at least a mlliion page views per month, don’t expect to make thousands of dollars from it. But if you read that last article, you know that the key is to “spend less than you earn”.
