My First Worm Farming Experience - How to Farm Worms Without Mis-hap!

My First Worm Farming Experience.

I started worm farming in 1995, pretty early in the whole "organic, eco-friendly" scheme of things. I had an abundant supply of horse manure and wondered what I could do with it. I came across a video on worm farming, made by the most boring man in the country! However, his information was invaluable and after some preparation I ordered a couple of pounds of what he called Blue Nose Worms.

I had prepared several breeding tubs, as per instructions and loaded them with the prescribed amount of horse poop. Each container received around 250 worms.

In all my naive wisdom, I did not think that the containers needed lids, and in addition, having been told that the worms breed best in warm conditions, I decided to keep them inside. Well, I lived in a very cold climate, and did not want my little beauties to get cold and stop breeding. So, I bought a couple of old filing cabinets at an auction room and located them in my spare room. Perfect; each drawer was the same size as one of my tubs.

Ideal, I thought, warm, dark and easy to access to water and check; I didn't even have to go out side!

Each filing cabinet drawer got a plastic tub of blue nose wrigglers, randy and ready to breed 'til their hearts' content!

I checked them regularly during their first few hours of captivity, and, exactly as described in the manual, they burrowed into the poop and disappeared.

The following morning I awoke excited to see how my wee wonders were doing (I don't really know what I was expecting) in their new home.

I didn't have to look far from my bed side! As I swung my feet out on to my lovely hard wood floor, I immediately became aware of a purpley, writhing mass covering 90% of my bedroom! WORMS! Thousands of the little squirmers! They were everywhere..piled up in the corners, slithering across the open spaces and appearing and disappearing under the skirting boards.

My little composting wonders were also expert Houdinis and had managed to wriggle up the sides of the plastic containers and escape to make a bid for freedom. Maybe they knew that when they had achieved their task of changing horse poop into compost, they were destined for the fisherman's hook, I don't know!

It took me most of the day to collect as many as I could and re-instate them - with lids - into their breeding tanks.

The moral of the story is to always read ALL the instructions and never, ever, keep worms in your spare room; it can lead to divorce, separation and even worse murder (of the worms you step on, that is).

Go to the site below and get going on your quest to save the planet; Worms create totally organic fertiliser and nitrogen rich 'juice', reduce land fill and keep millions of fishermen happy.

I have been a worm farmer for 15 years and worm farming is magic and rewarding. I even "hatch" eggs in my hands- it's like having babies!

How to Earn Easy Money

If you want to know how to earn easy money online, there are some terms and definitions that will be helpful to you in your quest. Affiliate marketing, Multi-level marketing, niche market, blog, social networking sites, traffic and conversion are all terms that will be helpful for you know and understand. Good income levels can be achieved when you are working as a home-based affiliate marketer, but you will have to work at it.

It is important to locate a market that you know something about. This is known as a niche market. Usually these groups of people can be relatively narrowly defined. For example if you like horses, your niche audience may be horse tack. It is important to choose affiliate products that interest you. If you do not care about horses, it will become tiresome to do the research on the subject that you will need to do.

Another thing to remember about niche markets is that you should stick with products that relate to the theme of your website. Do not start with horse tack products, then add a few flower garden products and a craft item related to scrapbooking. Your website will look like a flea market and potential clients looking for horse tack won't wade through pages of information about other products to find what they are interested in.

When you have defined a niche market, you must promote products that your target audience is likely to purchase. The products may be something that you think is great, but if your audience does not like it, you won't be bringing in revenue by promoting the product. There have been some very unusual items promoted on the Internet and elsewhere over the years, but unless it is a Hula Hoop level fad, you won't make money off the unusual products.

You must become known as a person who knows the subject related to the product perfectly. You want potential customers coming to you to ask about the products and how to make them work right. Be courteous and respectful to those who ask questions, even when the attitude is not reciprocated. You will need to interact on many different levels in order to develop the rapport with your customers.

If you do not have a blog, you should develop one. Take advantage of the power of emails. Respond politely and knowledgeably to comments, questions and forum posts on your subject. You can even initiate postings to get others to recognize your screen name.

You must take an active stance when it comes to promoting your affiliate product. Don't expect revenues from your very first and only posting about a product. Stay abreast of all the new methods and techniques related to Internet marketing and take advantage of the ones that might work for your website and product. If you have strong competition for the sales of your product, you might want to see what your competitor is doing that you might be able to tweak and use for yourself.

When studying how to earn easy money, always strive to be the best you can be. Keep your website content fresh and interesting so that visitors have a reason to return again and again. A profitable website doesn't have to be dull and boring. Keep your visitors involved and active.
