MAKE MONEY ONLINE Earn Extra, Free Money From Your YouTube Channel [Income Proof]

Adding the YouTube Channel to the Brave Publisher Program to Earn Money


If you have a YouTube channel, follow these steps and you are ready to start.

  • Go to the control panel of the Brave basic care token editor and click Add channel.
  • Select the YouTube channel as an option.
  • Enter your Google account and select Required YouTube channel.
Click on allow. Once this is done, every time someone sees your YouTube channel in the Brave browser; You will start to earn BAT chips.

In case you have multiple channels or YouTube sites, repeat the process and add all your web properties.

Since it only takes a minute to verify your website or YouTube channel, it's worth it. The next step is  to claim your BAT token.

Connecting the Uphold To Brave Publisher account: Important step

To withdraw all the cryptographic currencies you earn from the Brave publisher program, you need a Uphold account.

Create an account in Uphold

Just for reference, this is what the Uphold control panel looks like:
Once your Uphold account is ready, return to the control panel of the Brave editor; At the top, you will see the option to connect your publisher account from Brave to Uphold. (As shown in the screenshot below).
Once your account is connected, you can set the deposit currency. In my case, I selected BTC (Bitcoin) as I would like HODL bitcoins for a longer period as a store of value. (More on this in future articles).
Depending on the Region you are in, you can select USD, INR, EUR or any other currency of your choice. You can also withdraw your payment through bank account. Here is the list of countries that Uphold offers bank account and withdrawal funds.

If you are in a country that is not compatible with Uphold, you can take advantage of Payoneer to withdraw funds. Payoneer is a global banking service that allows you to have a virtual bank address for the US. UU., Europe, China, Japan and some other countries.I have configured Uphold using Payoneer.

Here are the following things that can do with Uphold.

In general, the process is based on these basic steps:

  • Create a brave editor account
  • Add your website, twitch or YouTube channel
  • Connect to Uphold to withdraw funds

Who would not have heard of Bitcoin, digital gold!

Bitcoin appeared in every conversation a couple of months ago when it hit a whopping $ 20,000.

Anyway, this publication is not about Bitcoin, but about the technology with which Bitcoin is built: Blockchain. If you want to get more information about Bitcoin, you can read it in our previous guide that we published in 2013.

The blockchain is the underlying technology that powers Bitcoin, and is said to be changing the way our data is stored. Like the way in which the Internet interrupted the whole ecosystem of the financial world, it is assumed that blockchain has a much broader impact. Be it finance, supply chain, real estate or any other industry.

It is assumed that the blockchain eliminates, or at least minimizes, the intermediary or centralized authority while increasing the confidence and security of the data. Many of the new projects are based on the blockchain, including some for bloggers and editors, that you should know and ride the wave before it's too late.

At the time of this writing, I have two projects related to blockchain and cryptocurrencies on my radar.

  • Bit.tube: an alternative blockchain to YouTube, in which you earn $ cryptocurrency just by watching videos or uploading your existing videos to your platform. You can also import existing videos from the YouTube channel with a single click. You can learn about this platform in my recent video here.
  • Brave browser: this is a popular browser among users who value their security and privacy. This browser is available throughout the platform, including Android and iOS. Brave works on a reward system that can be used by any website owner or YouTube creator to get the BAT token. Later, you can sell this BAT token for bitcoin or fiat money. In this tutorial, I'm sharing everything about how you can earn the BAT token with your YouTube website or the Twitch channel.

Program for Brave Editors: Everything you need to know

Brave offers a publishing program that is available to any website owner, YouTuber or Twitcher. The process of starting with the Brave attention token publisher program is quick and easy.
  • Everything you need to register and create an account.
  • Claim your web property verifying it
  • Create a Uphold account
That’s it!
For those who use WordPress, they can use their WordPress plugin for quick verification. Other users of the platform can take advantage of DNS-based verification. YouTube verification is as easy as a click.

The best part of this program is:
  • You need to set once and forget about it.
  • You can add several websites, the Twitch channel and the YouTube channel that you own.

The best part of this program is:

You need to set once and forget about it.
You can add several websites, the Twitch channel and the YouTube channel that you own.
It will automatically win the BAT token when qualified users explore your site in the Brave browser. You can see the current price of the BAT token here.

This accumulated BAT token can be withdrawn from your Uphold account (a PayPal alternative to send that receives the payment). I have written more about the Uphold process in a later section of this detailed tutorial.

In general, this is a type of installation and forgetting system and something that all users of a website, a YouTube channel or Twitch should use. I have won over 500 BAT chips worth $ 100.

Here is a screenshot; note two things:

  • I added my website to the Brave Publisher program in December 2016
  • Win so far: 526.80 BAT ($ 100 +)
It took about a year and a half, but the key here is; After the initial configuration, I never had to log in to my Brave editor account.

Is not it great to have multiple sources of income, especially when you do not have to do anything?

You can also increase this gain by recommending your readers to use Brave as their main web browser. They are running a promotion in which they offer $ 5 for each qualified user who installs and starts using the Brave browser according to their recommendation. You can activate and obtain this offer also from the control panel of your Brave editor.

I think that by now you have enough details about how this works and, in the rest, you can solve it once you start following this tutorial.

With this, we earn free money from our existing YouTube channel, websites or Twitch channel.

The Complete guide to set up the Brave Publisher account and get a BAT cryptography token

Here is how you start.
  • Go to the Brave editor page and create an account
  • With a single account, you can add and manage your multiple websites, the Twitch channel and the YouTube channel
Let's start adding a site.

Select the type of platform you want to add.
Enter the domain information:

Depending on the platform you use:

  • You can verify using the DNS record.
  • If you use WordPress, you can authenticate with the Brave payment verification plug-in.


Since using the WordPress platform, I used their WordPress plugin for verification. Here are the steps I followed:
  • Install the paid Brave WordPress plugin.
  • Copy paste the verification code in the plugin configuration.
  • Clear your WordPress cache and also the Cloudflare cache (if you use Cloudflare).
  • Click on verify on the Brave verification page and you're done.



Your website will now be added to the Brave editor panel, and you will earn BAT tokens when someone browses your site using the Brave browser.

What about YouTube?

How To Optimize Landing Page Keywords

In order to earn a second income online you need to maximize your traffic – targeted traffic is the best kind of internet traffic. Much of my success is enabled by building landing pages that earn me money – and then working hard to drive traffic to those pages. One of the methods I use for that is to analyze my traffic to find keywords I haven’t properly targeted, and going after those keywords harder.
In this article I will show you how I do that with two specific examples (the names have been changed to protect the innocent!) – the first is how I compare the keywords for a landing page with the keywords that are driving traffic – and how I use that information about the website traffic to modify the page, hopefully for the better!
The second example will show how I compare the keyword traffic to two similar landing pages and use that information to tweak one of the pages.

Comparing Meta Keywords with Traffic Keywords

For this first example I will be looking at a landing page of mine where I am selling, through affiliate links, a variety of “purple widgets.” The landing page is a review site were I provide my top 3 favorite purple widgets. All of this data is real but of course I have changed some of the terms.
First, here are the meta keywords I use to describe the landing page. Many of these keywords are also included as text on the page although not all:
new purple widget review
purple widget review
purple widget reviews
review purple widget
new widget review
new widget reviews
new widget
brand1 new widget
brand2 new widget
brand3 new widget
new purple widget
purple widgets rewview
purple widget ratings
purple widgets ratings
The first thing I will point out is that in the course of doing this analysis I saw that I had misspelled one of the keywords as “rewview” – I am going to fix that but before I do I am going to check Google Analytics to make sure that keyword isn’t driving traffic. Misspellings can be a good source of traffic!
So now let’s use Google Analytics to see the top ten search terms that are driving traffic to my page:
KeywordPageviews
purple widget reviews59
purple widgets ratings56
purple widget ratings43
purple widget review32
best new widget19
best widgets for drawing18
drawing widget reviews18
new widget reviews15
best purple widget14
new widget ratings11
That’s one month worth of pageviews. This landing page floats in and out of the first page of Google for the top keywords I am targeting, and of course my goal is get it firmly entrenched in the top 3 if I can. Given the competition I have the top spot will probably not be possible, but top 5 should be easily attainable and that is my goal.
The keywords in green are ones that are also in the meta keywords section of my landing page. So what I like to do is to take those keywords that are not in green and add those to the meta keywords section of the landing page and, where I can, to include those terms in the content of the page. The theory is those keywords are already driving traffic and I have not even optimized for those keywords – by doing so I may be able to get even more traffic from them.

Comparing Keywords Between Two Landing Pages

The second example I will be showing you is how to compare keywords driving traffic to two different landing pages to see if you can learn anything from one to tweak the other. What I like to do is to take my best performing landing page and then use that to compare against each of my other pages. Where I see differences I make changes.
Here is an example comparing two different landing pages:
Purple WidgetsTwotone Whatzits
KeywordPageviewsKeywordPageviews
purple widget reviews59twotone whatzit reviews63
purple widgets ratings56two tone whatzit reviews53
purple widget ratings43best twotone whatzit13
purple widget review32twotone whatzit review13
best new widget19two tone whatzit review11
best widgets for drawing18best twotone whatzits9
drawing widget reviews18best twotone whatzit6
new widget reviews15best two tone for drafting6
best purple widget14which whatzit for drafting?6
new widget ratings11twotone whatzits reviews6
The first thing I notice now is something that probably should have caught my eye before, but that is that on the Purple Widgets page I have not included the keyword of “purple widgets reviews” – I only noticed that when comparing to the second site. So I am also going to add that as a keyword for the first site. Read my post on using keyword plurals to learn more about that concept.
The second thing I notice is that on the purple widgets page I am getting traffic for the word “ratings” in addition to review. You will also see from up above that I have inlcuded those terms in my meta keywords. They were not originally there but I started seeing traffic using those phrases so utilizing the method shown in the first example I included targeted those phrases and now I see it is paying off.
But what I also see is that I have not yet optimized the twotone whatzits page with the word “ratings” – and as I have learned now many people appear to search for ratings when looking for reviews – so, I am going to add some phrases such as “twotone whatzit ratings” and “two tone whatzit ratings” to the meta keywords section of that landing page and do the same for other similar pages I have.
So that’s it – a couple of tips for how I optimize my landing page keywords to improve targeted traffic. I hope it helps, and good luck on earning your secondary income online!
We’ll come back in a month and do another analysis of these pages to see how things went. See Landing Page Keywords Update.

Landing Page Keywords Update

A month ago I wrote an article titled How To Optimize Landing Page Keywords where I walked you through the process I use to tweak my landing pages based on traffic and other data such as comparing what is working on one landing page with another. It’s been a month now with the minor changes I made in place and I wanted to revisit the topic to see how my changes made a positive impact on my landing page traffic and to see if there are any further optimizations I can make.
Here is a table showing the results:
Last MonthThis Month
KeywordPageviewsKeywordPageviews
purple widget reviews59purple widget reviews132
purple widgets ratings56purple widgets ratings73
purple widget ratings43best new widget48
purple widget review32purple widget review45
best new widget19widget reviews36
best widgets for drawing18purple widget ratings24
drawing widget reviews18newest widget reviews20
new widget reviews15purp widget reviews18
best purple widget14purple widgets reviews16
new widget ratings11best widgets for drawing15
So what does this all mean? Well the first thing that should be obvious is that traffic to my landing page increased. There were 285 pageviews generated by the top ten keywords last month and this month the top ten keywords generated 427 pageviews, a 50% increase. The keywords in green are the ones I already had as meta keywords on my landing page last month, yellow represents keywords I added this month because of my previous analysis and keywords in red are again keywords driving traffic that I have not optimized for (but I will be!).
For me the keywords in red are the surprising and interesting ones because they show that I am getting more authority for the shorter tail keywords. I target “purple widget” because it is more specific and I have less competition but now you can see I am suddenly getting traffic for “purp widget” (my real keyword is actually a compound word so what I am trying to show here is I am starting to rank for a subset of that word) and “widget”, which is a much more general keyword that I thought I could rank for.
So just like last month I am going to include the phrases in red in my meta keywords for that page, and perhaps add some content to include those phrases as well.
As you can see this is a relatively simple analysis but it does take some time – you clearly can’t do this on every one of your blog posts and depending on how many landing pages you have you may not be able to do it on every one of them either. My suggestion is to focus first on your best producing landing pages and then on those pages you think should be doing better.
Looking to ramp up your secondary income? Getting more traffic to your landing pages where you offer a product for sale is a great way to do it. I hope these brief glimpses into how I do it was helpful.

How to Use Google Custom Search to Supercharge Your Blog Network Interlinking


Supercharged
Creative Commons LicensePhoto credit: Steve Kay
By now you probably know that one of the most important strategies you can use to improve your website SEO is to interlink your posts – linking back to older posts when you create new posts and editing older posts to link forward to newer posts. Without an effective interlinking strategy each of your articles is out on an island of itself. With good interlinking you begin to build a mesh of content that is search engine friendly and sure to help your site rank higher and be more useful for searchers.
There are a number of different methods available to help you do this interlinking. Of course the simplest approach is to use the search function of your own website. Or use Google Search with the site modifier like [topic site:mysite.com]. Our own Dr. WordPress offered his tip of using the WordPress Admin interface to find old posts and link to them. Or instead of finding specific terms to link to you could use one of the plethora of related posts plugins to automatically insert some interlinking.
Any of these solutions works just fine when you are writing on a single blog but if you have multiple blogs then the solution is not so obvious. Interlinking within your own blog network is as important (if not more so!) than interlinking on a single site. But none of the strategies above apply to interlinking across multiples websites. So what is a budding media mogul to do?
Google Custom Search to the rescue!

What is Google Custom Search?

Google Custom Search is a free product from Google that allows you to build a unique Custom Search Engine (CSE), which according to Google is “a tailored search experience, built using Google’s core search technology, that prioritizes or restricts search results based on websites and pages you specify.” Many bloggers have replaced their blogs’ standard search functionality with a CSE which offers the power of Google – meaning better search results.
But this article isn’t about that – it’s about how to build a standalone CSE for your own purposes.

How to create a Google Custom Search Engine

Building a new CSE is easy – here are the steps you need to follow:
  1. Create a Google Account – If you don’t already have a Google account then you need to create one.
  2. Create a New Custom Search Engine – Once you are signed in to your Google account, go to Google’s Custom Search Engine page and press the big blue button that says Create a Custom Search Engine. This will bring you to a simple form that you complete to make your CSE.
  3. Complete the CSE form – Give your new search engine a name and a description if you want, and then in the “sites to search” box give it the list of sites you want included. Put in all of the blogs in your blog network, one to a line, writing the domain like “mydomain.com”. Then check that you agree to the terms and conditions and click Next. On the next page you will be given an option to test the search engine but I wouldn’t bother as it seems to take a minute or so for it to work anyway. Just click the Finish button and you have created your first CSE!

Using Your New CSE

Once you have your Custom Search Engine built you have a number of options for how to use it. Your CSE is just a webpage so the easiest thing to do is to bookmark it. There are also a number of gadgets available to add it to your iGoogle page, if you use one. My personal favorite is the Custom Search Console gadget which gives you easy access to all of your CSEs.
Two things you can do with your CSE:
Linking backward
As you are writing a post you should search for some of the key terms in your CSE. If you have found that you have written about any of these terms before you should take this is an opportunity to link back to those older articles.
Linking forward
Same thing but in the other direction. Use your CSE to find older articles that relate to your freshly posted article, and then edit those older articles to include links to your new article.
This is classic interlinking, made easy even over a number of blogs by creating a Google Custom Search Engine.

Taking Your CSE to the Next Level

So we’ve seen how you can improve your interlinking across your own network of blogs but can we extend this out even further to include other websites in your niche or other friends’ blogs? Of course! Remember when you entered in your list of domains when you created your CSE? Well guess what – you can enter any domain there you want! It does not have to be a website that you maintain – it can just as easily be any website in your niche.
How might this be used? Well clearly it is good form to link back to others when writing a related article, and using CSE would help you do that. But you could also contact the other author and suggest they might want to link to your post from their older post. Of course this would go over better if you already know the person, but it’s worth a try either way. This kind of interlinking is not Black Hat SEO and is totally appropriate assuming the content is applicable.
Thank you for taking the time to read this article on utilizing Google Custom Search to improve your blog network interlinking. While I have utilized this technique myself writing this article has been a good reminder that I need to be even more vigilant in doing do as I write each post, not just periodically as I have been doing.
So let’s all make a New Year’s Resolution to improve our interlinking – and using Google Custom Search to do it.
