How to use Child Labor…and get away with it!
When I say “child labor” most of the time the immediate image that comes to mind is a sweat shop where poor kids are working in dangerous conditions. But what I’m talking about is legal, ethical, and the kid will probably like it!
“Content is King”, when it comes to Internet Marketing. But usually the folks who are doing Internet Marketing are so busy with the marketing that they don’t have time for the content.
Before you go paying good money for Private Label Rights articles, or paying someone to write blog posts for you, why not leverage some good, free content? Tap the content rolling around in your child’s head!
Children’s opinions matter. They matter because of the marketplace. Most content can be related to a child. Find out what yours thinks and blog about it…or better yet, get them to blog about it if they’re old enough to type in coherent sentences.
Don’t restrict your thinking to content related to Toys. That’s obvious. If you have a niche about toys you can regularly share your child’s opinions about them and have instant content. I’m talking about getting a child’s angle on other niches. Here’s a few examples of what I’m talking about:
- a niche about a hobby - get the child to talk about the hobby, how their parents got them started in it, what they like about it
- a niche about a product - find out what kids at school say about the product, crazy uses for the product (that only a kid could think of), etc.
- philosophical ramblings - explain deep thoughts to a child and get them to summarize it in their words.
Hopefully you could think about your particular niche and figure out your child’s perspective. Heck, even something like ‘Global Warming’…if you had a blog about enviromental issues and could get your child to offer thoughts about it regularly, that could become a featured item that would draw visitors. (You can just type it for them, using their exact words.)
It becomes even more useful if they’re old enough to type. If you’re up for it, register a domain name for them, set up a blog, a cool-looking template, related to something that really interests them. Put some ads on it (instruct them NOT to click them, ever), maybe create some pages with affiliate links, and let them do the rest. Let them blog their thoughts, while you build traffic to it. Then come back and show them while you insert some affiliate products. Get them to review a product (from a teen’s perspective).
Bingo. Free child labor. Good, unique, relevant content.
