Google is Dead

[freedombreather]

If you have a blog (with great content) that all ready has an
income stream in place (such as affiliate links or adsense, etc) it might make sense for you to advertise your site. In fact, it might be a goldmine.

Most bloggers rely on the free methods.....word of mouth, social networking, playing the waiting game, etc. However, if you would like to speed things up or just get more visitors, consider using Facebook advertsing or Plenty of Fish advertising. Because Google adwords became incredibly expensive and confusing, a lot of people have turned to the other two new players. Because their advertising programs are so new, the clicks you can get are still really cheap! Also, you can really target your audience as specific as you like! I have been using Facebook and Plenty of Fish advertising for about a month now, and have found incredible results for dirt cheap. Use this simple formula to see if your blog will benefit from these types of platforms. It might just pay off:

Saying, "Google is dead; they charge too much" sounds a little like "Nobody goes there any more; they're too crowded."

Another good solution is the StumbleUpon paid membership. It features great, creative solutions for your traffic, based on topic (and no so much on keyword), which is an excellent alternative to Google Adwords.

Yeah, I think Google is going to be around for a while. They're one of the most powerful companies now.

Think about this: every time you need to search for something, without thinking about it you probably go to google. Wow.
