If you own a brick and mortar business and you play music over the speaker system you are subject to broadcasting (or rebroadcasting) rules that provide for a payment to music licensing companies like ASCAP, BMI and SESAC. If you subscribe to a music service they may have that fee built into the monthly service agreement.

If you play music over your phone system when a customer is on hold you may be subject to payment of rebroadcasting fees.

Radio stations have had to pay these fees for years, but when companies began to broadcast on the web via online podcasts the subject was initially very gray.

There are a lot of web site and blog site owners who are willing to pay out any amount of cash they can find in their budgets to pay to shady promotion sites that are all too happy to take their cash and deliver a link to a big player in the internet world like YouTube or Problogger. These desperate site owners really have not a clue as to what damage they’re doing to their financial budgets.

One can make a decent income in site promotion. Buffing up your site to rake in viewers is a good way to turn it into a booming business.

Since information is the hottest buy today, people would pay quite a sum to put up their information on your site.

The extensive use of online forums is making the average web user something similar to the age old “Jack of all trades”.

Your grandfather likely was considered a ‘Jack of all trades’ if for no other reason than he had to know a lot about many things in order to survive.

In my sphere of influence I have an acquaintance whose grandfather was a farmer, railroad engineer, rancher, stagecoach driver and police officer. He had a broad range of skills, but couldn’t really claim any one career as the defining example of his life’s work. Thus the old adage, “Jack of all trades – master of none.”

Article marketing is an efficient way of generating tons of free pre-qualified free traffic for your website, and has so many benefits besides just traffic generation that every internet marketer should be doing it.

However, not everyone is a writer. So how can people who hate writing cash in on the benefits of article marketing? You need a system that is going to practically write the articles for you!

1. Write down a list of questions that people in your niche may ask. When you are doing this remember that you’re looking for questions that can’t be answered by a simple ‘yes’ or ‘no’. So start your questions with the ‘Wh’ questions words.
