The best Iranian Music Site
Recently we got a request to review a new Iranian or Persian music site - IraneMusic.com . Our editors spend a good few hours looking at the website and their music collection. Next we looked at other Iranian music websites and did a comparative study to determine if there is anything unique about this Iranian Music site. I have to admit that the design implementation looks flawless. Their music content appears to be much higher than any other Persian Music website. What I really find interesting is that most of the other persian websites, either have low graphics implementation (with a few exceptions ex: Bia2.com), or allow download of music surrounded by hundreds of .gifs, and annoying ads. But Iran eMusic.com have managed to provide a clean fresh breath of web approach, where there is only quality music without any annoying web content. Moving around the site is very linear and straight forward. You can find exactly the kind or type of Iran music you are looking for. This is defintely one website where I recommend any Iranian music lover to defintely check it out.
Aside from providing content on Music, Iran eMusic.com has also made the effort to provide thousands of Iranian music videos for each artist selection. Meaning if you are listening to Googoosh, you can also get to watch most of her videos that were either released before the Iranian revolution or after. Infact now that Googoosh is living in Los Angeles, we expect more great music from her and Iran eMusic has not let us down - ‘cuz I noticed that they have not only the oldest but also the newest videos of Googoosh.
Now just that we taught Music and Music videos are what Iran eMusic is all about, to our surprise we could also read the latest news from Iran, Persian events and concerts, various Live iranian TV channels that could be watched online and etc etc.
In Conclusion, we think Iran emusic has a very clean, streamlined, easy to use and browse website, with utmost consideration for user experience. And we firmly believe that when a web owner puts the site visitor first - revenue would follow.
Hence if you are planning on listening to some great Iranian music, or simply want to watch live TV shows broadcasted via satellite, than we defintely recommend Iran eMusic.com.

Adsense Alternative : Other ways to make money Online
If you are stuck using Google Adsense and your earning has dwindled over the years due to low eCPM, than you may want to consider other companies which offer alternatives to google adsense. Also, if your google account is suspended because your sight has a copy-righted products, or you have allowed music download, or any other form of infringement, than I suggest that you apply to the following networks as well to increase your online generated wealth.
AdsDaq (no requirement) - There is no requirement to AdsDag but once you start signing up for the program, you will soon realize that AdsDaq only works in a few selected countries.
Ad Dynamix - (no requirement) - Ad Dynamix is served internationally. Unfortunately, people have complained on numerous times about the Poor Customer Support.
ValueClick (3,000 pageviews per month) - ValueClick is another good company which pays you on time and with a good eCPM. Their policy to get accepted or rejected is quite stringent. So if you are not approved, don’t be sad… thousands other gets rejected on daily basis :p .
Morning Falls (10,000 pageviews per month) - A relatively low traffic requirement, solid customer service, simple implementation and easy to understand reports make this a good CPM publisher for beginners.
CPX Interactive (10,000 pageviews per month) - I have played around quite a bid with CPX interactive and never had a problem with them. They usually sell left-over ads from other networks such as facebook and myspace. So basically if an advertiser has paid for 1million impressions a day and facebook can only accomodate 700,000… then they will ask CPX interactive to sell the rest through its network of publishers. They are very reliable and pays on time through PayPal.
Burst Media (20,000 pageviews per month) - Burst Media is an intermediate advertising publisher. Their overly-complicated integration and reports, as well as their poor customer service hold them back from the upper echelon of advertising networks.
Casale Media (10,000 unique visitors per month) - If you have been to a website and then you noticed little popups asking you to download a screen saver. Well its Casale Media. Currently they are running ads promoting Poker (or other gambling) websites. They pay on time and are a reliable.
Tribal Fusion (60,000 unique visitors per month) - A Truely great company to work with. Although it is not easy to get approved with Tribal Fusion but once you do get approved, You would greatly enjoy making lots of money with them. Tribal Fusion has recently served a lot of Ads from Various airlines as well as phone companies. They do not (or rarely) serve misleading Poker ads that you may find through other companies.
Brightroll (100,000 video views and 250,000 pageviews per month) - Along with Video Egg, Brightroll is the only other advertising publisher on this list that is truly centered on new media. Their video view requirement automatically puts them in the advanced category.
Adtegrity (500,000 pageviews per month) - While their orange and green color scheme may make you scratch your head, Adtegrity is known for their quality customer service and is quickly becoming a leader in the advertising network field.
Advertising.com (2 million pageviews per month) - Advertising.com is usually used by big companies to serve their advertising needs. Companies like Ford, Dodge, Microsoft etc etc uses Advertising.com platform. It is not easy to get approved and also their REGISTER AS PUBLISHER link has been broken for well over 2 months and no one has bothered to fix it..which is a bumer and truely very sad.
Video Egg (10 million video views per month) - The cream of the new media crop, Video Egg concentrates entirely on advertising in online videos.
Inconclusion: Yes, there are alternatives to Google. But to be honest after being involved with online money making solutions for the last 4 years, I have learnt that none beats google. People have made millions/month and google pays them on time. Anyone can sign up…anyone can host any website and can make money. BUT - IF YOU DO NOT RESPECT THEIR TERMS AND CONDITIONS..they will kick you out. Which means, respect Google and they will Treat you nice. Google pays the highest, delivers the best ad to generate a lot of revenue. Once with Google..and You will never look back.
Following is a picture of a mentor of mine…Jeremy Shoemoney. I love this guy for his honesty, his work ethics, his dedication to what he does .. and daym he deserves pay cheques like that !

Verisign Selling MoreOver and WebLogs
In 2005, Verisign made two key acquisitions by buying MoreOver.com and Weblogs. When it was announced that Weblogs.com has been sold to Verisign for $2.3 million, a lot of people simply chuckled and thought that they (Verisign) paid way too much for a website which lacks basic infrastructure and proper design implementation. Fast Forward and now its 2008. Verisign has placed a price tag of $25million for MoreOver.com and the sale price for Weblogs.com has been kept confidential.
Currently they are out in the market and looking for a potential buyer. Yearly revenue for MoreOver.com as of 2008 is around $8million. So if you are an angel investor, a potential buyer with lots of $, this may be a good venture to invest in.

Monetize Your Blog, Books, Self Aid, Advertising Help, and more…
Sometimes key to success is to really understand your field or the field that you intend to pursue. Just going does not pan out at the end. Investing in understanding what it means to monetize your blog, or investing into buying books on blogging, reading about how other bloggers made it big, buying self aid blog books or even learning about advertising techniques on blogs, you may need to really educate yourself.
I noticed that a quick search on Ebay by typing Blog yielded plenty of useful material that one can buy and use it to jump start a great blogging career.
Following are some of the interesting products on Ebay that you may consider buying.
Why Buy or Sell a Blog?
A lot of webmasters are now coming to the realization that having a wordpress blog associated with their website, can greatly enhance their website’s ranking and search engine visibility. Updating a blog is by far much easier than creating static/dynamic pages on a website. With inbuilt ‘ping’ functions, you can immediately submit your blog-post to multiple search index listings. For instance when I write a Blog article, 5 minutes later it appears on Google.
This is a little digression but, when the announcement was made that Sarah Palin will be John McCain’s running mate and that her daughter Bristol Palin is pregnant with her second child, my blog post was ranked #1 on Google’s search index for 3-4 days. Which meant my traffic sky rocketed and so did my earnings. Aside from having Google adsense, I also incorporated plenty of affiliate ads and thanks to the Mother Daughter Palin controversy, I got to make some money.
Now, ever since I included wordpress blog to my website (Sorry, I am not going to mention the name of my website for now), I have also noticed that my adsense eCPM has gone up dramatically. Which means, that, now my website is given a ‘value’ by google. It is not considered just a junk website with some random content and millions of hits/month… but now Google realizes that it is a valuable website, with serious content, serious visibility.. and hence the Google ads that are displayed on my website, are over 0.20 cents/ click.
Okay… back to the main theme of this entry.
When and Why you should sell your Blog: If you have established a niche in the blogospher but now you have a lot of other obligations, than do not let your ranking drop because you cannot keep your blog updated. Do not let your blog fade away in time. SELL IT !. I am sure a lot of new bloggers would like to take over a business that is already established. Although I have noticed that now adays every other new blogger writes about MAKE MONEY ONLINE .. but honestly, there are so many heavy weights out there in the world of MAKE MONEY ONLINE that no one cares any more…and the new blogger gives up when there is no traffic. So which means, if you intend to REALLY MAKE MONEY, than don’t just start from ZERO and talk about something you may not know as much as the heavy weights know…. simply buy a well established blog and make it bigger and better.
For instance, linkbuildingbible.com was established ONLY in 2006 or 2007. But Adam spent a lot of time, writing great articles and posting lots of links related to Search Engine Optimization. He had lots of back-links and lots of quality references from other blogs. Now, Lisa Ann, of Inline SEO simply bought Adam’s blog and all those articles, back links, entries would be part of her INLINESEO.com. I think this was a great move by Lisa and in the competitive world of SEO, she will soon pose a serious threat by attracting a lot of business by getting traffic through search engines looking for a SEO specialist…all thanks to a well established blog with quality content.
So if you think that you cannot cope up with keeping your blog updated at all times, and you have run out of ideas, put it on sale. Perhaps someone out there can buy it. You get your money for establishing the blog and the new owner can keep your blog active and generate some revenue..
