If photography is where your passion lies weather as a career or just a hobby, then I've got very good news for you! You can now make some extra income by selling your authentic pictures through FlickrCash.com whereby they will assist you in payments and licensing your pictures within their platform searchable by interested buyers.



Being already one of the most used online image storage platform, Flickr now creates a highly convenient marketplace for making buying and selling of images a breeze for everyone.

Some of the main features from this great free service includes multi parameter search with negative keywords which returns as many thumbnails as your screen can display, saved searches with roll-back, auto/bulk watermarking and royalty free licenses based on Creative Commons, archived for public inspection at any time.

As you can clearly see, FlickrCash really makes it hassle free for you thus giving you more time to take even more pictures and also protect your intellectual rights to your images.

One of the most powerful way to building short-term traffic I found thus far is to get reciprocal link from other blogs within the same or similar topic of interest. I tried it out with my Food Blog and I must say it works wonderfully. Of course I prepared a personal and sincere email directed the blogger selected and hope for the best.

Out of 20 I sent out to, I received 5 reciprocal links which is awesome in my opinion. Of course there will be quite a few who is not so accommodating to new blogs such as mine which is totally understandable but at least they know of my site existence and might possibly bookmark it.

There are so many blog directories out there to generate traffic and most will request for a reciprocal link. Thus far I think BlogExplosion and Technorati is extremely popular and effective. I'm of course trying out others as well but its still early to see the effectiveness. I guess posting to as many directories as possible is good afterall it takes only a few mins to submit to one.

The other feature I'm still bewildered about is Pinging and thus far I can understand its importance for the blog site. Hard to determine if the free pinging sites are doing what they say it will do. Guess its all trial and error.

Spent the entire evening yesterday gathering information on e-marketing and such... and I must say it is truly a daunting task to master it well. I really salute all the people whom are sharing their ideas and tips all over the internet to guide newbies like myself. I think the most important one I have found is Technorati.com which acts as a gateway for new blogs to reach out to readers around the world.

I am still toying around with several site tracking providers and will post here which one I think is best of the lot in my opinion based not only on accuracy but also traffic information provided.
