Happy and successful Christmas To All Readers

Yes, I hope you are all prospering and that we will go on to bigger and better things in 2009.

This is an exciting time for me as I officially become old this Christmas, and am retiring from my day job and will have more time to concentrate on internet marketing.
I should also be able to spend some time ski-ing this winter, and hopefully be able to do spend more time in France in general, as I am a committed Francophile.

Right, back to the normal subject of internet marketing.

Regular readers will know that I have been concentrating my efforts on acme-people-search and GDI.
I have decided to make GDI my main business and continue to promote acme, as that is bringing in regular income, and also some GDI sign ups.

Now I know many people have pre-conceived ideas about GDI and have decided not to join for one reason or another, but how many other programs have been successful for 7 years, provide a useful product and service, and pay the same amount of commission, down to 5 levels.
Most programs are either outright scams, or they fizzle brightly for a few months, and then become saturated and eventually disappear.

Most people probably haven’t really looked at what GDI has to offer, and for their benefit I list the main features here:-


* .WS Domain: Secure a place on the internet and carve out some personal space. Give a small business a big helping hand with a domain name.

* 10 Email Addresses: Everyone has an email address today, but it's rarely personal. Get a truly unique address, personal or professional, addressed at your own domain name. Access these addresses from our brand new webmail interface at Email.ws!

* SiteBuilder: Building a WebSite on a new domain is easy, just use our most recent version of SiteBuilder. We continue to make improvements daily!

* Web Hosting: For those who know their way around a WebSite, we offer hosting.

* URL Forwarding: If someone already has a site, using forwarding on their domain will make it look like they have two sites!

* Income Opportunity: Earn a substantial residual income just by referring others to GDI Products and Services.

Now to the main point of this post--
I have recently been given access to a brilliant program for obtaining sign ups by my GDI sponsor.
This includes $100 of free advertising on Yahoo, plus 5000 daily leads.
To find out all the benefits, it would be better if you read this website,
www.incomebooster.tk, especially the second page, as it does a better job of explaining things, than I feel I can do here.

This is not available to existing GDI members and is inclusive to the downline I belong to and I will email full details, of how to proceed, to anyone who signs up through this site.
www.incomebooster.tk

This should certainly help you boost your income for the new year.

STOP PRESS

I have just been made aware of a brand new advertising site that is giving away free, lifetime pro memberships, for the first 500 that sign up. Rush to it here:- Xfactorads

I Jumped To The Top

That’s right I managed to jump to the top of the list at ListJumper.
That means that when I did my-every three days-random mailing, to those below me, most of the deliveries would go to people I hadn’t reached before, especially as there are new members coming in all the time.
OK this isn’t the most exciting thing that’s ever happened to me, but it gives me an excuse to put up the dolphin picture. Hope you like it.

Both the Listjumper and TheListauction bring in sign ups every time I post, and as I use the squeeze pages from instantmlmsqueezepages, rather than the generic sales pages from the opportunities I am promoting, I get new members to that program as well as the main opportunity, and sometimes both.

One feature of Thelistauction is that gold members can place ads at the top of random letters sent out by other members. This is in the form of a text ad and a url.
Now, the gold members tend to be the more experienced and professional marketers and one thing that stands out is that they almost all use Viralurl to cloak their links.

Regular readers will know that I have done a couple of posts about Viralurl, and I cannot understand why anyone would promote a long ugly website address, or expose their affiliate link to the possibility of being hacked off, when there is an excellent free program like this, to solve the problem.
Not only does it tidy up your urls, but you can put a small ad on the Viralurl bar that shows at the top of web pages that have been cloaked, and others look at when clicking on to your links.

Viralurl do a series of videos explaining the system, one of which is a review and can be watched HERE.



Lastly, here is another downline type program that has GDI among the various ones in it’s list. It is called The3cashmachine and is reputed to be an excellent money building set up in it’s own right.
Paul at affiliatecurve, who is my sponsor and does very well with GDI, says that The3cashmachine and Hits2u, are his main sources of referrals for that program.
You may also want to look at GDIincometeam which I have only just come across, and obviously does the same job.

Squeeze Into This

Most affiliate programs provide you with an all bells and whistles sales site with which to advertise their program, and get yourself referrals.
These are usually very professional and include a long written message from the program owner, proof of payments received photos, glowing testimonials and bullets listing the various features and advantages. There is often a video to watch as well.

This is all well and good, but stick this on your traffic exchanges etc and nobody will give them more than a glance. To regular surfers these sites all look the same, besides which, these people already have their own program to sell, they’re not looking for another one.
However, if you use a squeeze page, instead of the take all day to read sales page, you will get some interest.
This is because squeeze pages just give enough small snippets of information, to raise people’s curiosity, then ask them to fill in their details to find out more. These can then link to the regular sales page, which they might read on this occasion, and possibly sign up.
If they don’t you have their email address and can send them a follow up message and add it to your list. Some programs will do this for you automatically.

Luckily the two programs that I have talked about on this blog both provide their own squeeze pages, as well as the regular sales ones.
You can see Acme’s by clicking HERE, and one of GDI’s HERE.

This brings me to the main point of this post.
I have joined a program called InstantMLMSqueezePages.
The idea is you are provided with squeeze pages to promote any MLM/affiliate/networking program.
These squeeze pages actually advertise a free report, such as---How To Get Rich Building A Lazy Downline--which is packed with information which is invaluable to any internet marketer, and is valued at around $97. Click HERE to see what this looks like.
As I said previously, surfers aren’t looking for a new business, but they are interested in anything that might help them promote the one they’ve already got. So, they sign up for the free report.

What’s in it for us then?
Well, firstly the report is rebranded with your Instantmlmsqueezepages ID, which is a lucrative affiliate program in itself, and also has a link to your main business, which people are also encouraged to look at.
So you see you are killing two birds with one stone, as sign ups to either program should see you in the money.
Plus, you will get the information from the people who fill the form in, and can add them to your list for follow up messages, even if they don’t immediately become active.
More experienced marketers who sign up for the platinum level of membership have the opportunity to transfer these signees, automatically to their Aweber autoresponder.

Where do you promote these squeeze pages?
Just go back to my “traffic” posts and there’s plenty there to get you going.

Incidentally, as I said previously InstantMLMsqueezepages is a worthwhile affiliate program in it’s own right, and this also applies to most of the list builders that are out there.
I think you could make money promoting these various programs on each other, especially as you know the people involved there, have already bought a similar product.

Here's One To Jump Into

A quick update on my traffic building post..

I have just signed up to a new program called List Jumper.
This is another program for emailing random members, but works in a different way to the others.

Everybody is placed in a vertical list on joining and starts at the bottom. Then you can earn credits by reading emails and JUMP up the list. You can then mail quantities of members below you every few days.
Like most programs there is a free version and various upgrades. The paid versions allow you to email more people and also to rise up the list automatically.

The reason I am putting this in a quick post is that the program is still in pre-launch, and anybody getting in early is going to be starting from further up the list.
Also, and I think this is a big attraction, all members can make a residual income from this, by getting sign ups, right down 7 levels. Even free members can do this and I think that the commissions look quite generous.

Again, as with other programs you‘ve got nothing to lose, by having a look and getting a proper understanding of what‘s involved..

I personally think this one has a lot of potential.

It's All About Traffic

If you have been following my ventures here, you will hopefully have signed up with acme-people-search and Global Domains International.

Acme will bring you sales with the affiliate programs they use, plus $30 for each referral, who stays in the system.

GDI will add a growing residual income, once you introduce more than 10 people to their program.
Something I’ve only just realised with GDI is their leaderboard bonus plan.
If you refer five people in a week you get a $100 bonus, 10 people $200 and so on.
This will galvanize me into action, promoting this program, which of course, neatly brings me to traffic.

Unless you have your own opt in list to sell to, you’re going to need traffic.
Even if you have a list, you need to keep finding new things to try and sell to subscribers, which is hard going, and can end up being seen as too pushy for some.

So, list or no list, we all need fresh traffic, so here are some of the methods I am using.

First of all Thelistauction.
As readers will know I joined this fairly recently, to promote acme, and upgraded to their silver membership. With this I can email up to 2500 random members every 5 days.
It costs $19 per month which means I only need one sign up per month to be in profit.
As I have been getting several per posting this is looking like being, the proverbial, no brainer. To get maximum credits, so that you can post to the full 2500 you need to read received emails. To take the hassle out of this I have a separate mail account, just for these, and look at as many as I need to and delete the rest. You also have control over the number of emails that you want to receive per day from the back office.

Another good sauce of traffic is Leadsleap.
With this program you promote your site with a text ad, which is similar in style to an Adsense ad. These are shown on the Leadsleap website and blog, plus the newsletters that are sent out. Your ads are always featured on the newsletters to your downline, to 10 levels. This makes the system viral as a downline of this size could easily bring you thousands of hits. There is no lengthy surfing with this system and you only need to click on ten ads per day to get the maximum number of credits possible. This is quite an unusual system and I would recommend reading it’s web page for a better understanding of how it works. This one is completely free, and the newsletters themselves are probably worth signing up for.

Next Linkrefferal
I wont say a lot about this because I think many of you are already members, and absolutely everybody recommends it. Again this is viral and getting referrals will explode the number of people viewing your site. The paid version will save having to do so much surfing and keep your site in the front rank without any effort.

Next, that old stand by--traffic exchanges.
Now I realise that the success ratio on these is not very high, but traffic is traffic, and there are ways to use TEs to maximum advantage. None of these ideas are original but for any of you new to TEs, here goes.

Firstly join 5 or 6 TEs and list acme and GDI using the splash page options, as surfers never stop to read the standard sales pages, which they might have seen a hundred times before. Also list, Thelistauction, Leadsleap, Linkreferral and you could also advertise the different TEs on each other, as they are viral too.

You will find that not all the TEs allow this many sites to be advertised, but there is a way around this. Many TEs will allow rotators, so listing all your sites on one of these will solve the problem, and will also keep all your sites in one place for editing purposes.
The most popular rotator is Pageswhirl, which has a free and paid version. For completely free, I have been using Freerotator.com without any problems.

The next step is to surf them efficiently. You will need the Firefox browser from Mozilla.com to do this or any browser that utilises tabs.
Put all your traffic exchanges in a separate favourites folder and then click “open all in tabs”. Now you have all your TEs set up ready to surf, you just click on them all in turn, for as long as you want to.
As you start to make money it’s worth ploughing some of your profits back into upgrading some of these programs, as often you will get a lot more for not very much.

Here is a list of the exchanges that I use, but of course you may already have your favourites.

Trafficswarm, Webizinsider, TrafficG Easyhits4u,

Dragonsurf, Hovertraffic Trafficroundup

Don’t forget about Traffic Digger and FreeViral [see previous post]. These are completely viral, and need no surfing, just promoting.

As I said it’s all about traffic and hits are hits. Therefore any other ways of getting your main programs seen is worth using. Anything from free classifieds through to article posting will all make a difference.

Hope there is something here that is useful and good luck.

Should We Get Entangled In This Web

Hi--Long time no post.

Things have been ticking along quite nicely lately. You cant join exciting new programs every week, it’s nice to sit back and watch things tick over.
The first referrals that signed up for acme-people-search have now been members for over 30 days , and the payments are being steadily approved, in my account.

However, much as I’d like to, it’s folly to sit still because you can’t plateau, you have to keep pushing forward. So I decided to look at one of the programs I’d joined to promote GDI--The Spider Marketing System.
Before joining I had seen a lot of sales pages for it, which suggested that it is pretty popular, and I’d read one or to comments, all of which were favourable.

The system is very comprehensive [there are 22+ possible streams of income involved] and because of this there are several videos explaining what it is all about, to watch when you sign up.
These are quite time consuming but, by the time you’ve watched them you realise that there is a tremendous opportunity here, to earn a lot of money.

Rather like a Downline club there are a number of programs to join, all under the umbrella of The Spider Marketing System, Most people will join all of them, there are good reasons to, but none are compulsory, it’s your choice.
The programs are not your usual downline PTC and PTR sites but companies like Commission Junction, Adsense, Miva and of course GDI. These programs don’t deal in amounts like 1 cent, they pay $45, $50 and $100 bonuses in some cases, and the system does most of the work for you.

I have to admit that I am still learning about this and trying to digest all the information. I am not finding it simple but am getting my head round it and have joined most of the programs.
One of the things that has forced me to get on with it is that I have started getting referrals, and if they join the programs before I do, any payments earned will go to the person above me.

To summarise, this is a very comprehensive program that can potentially earn us a lot of money, I am still sussing it out, and learning how it works, but think that it would be well worth your while having a look at.
You might be brighter than me and get your head around it much quicker.
There are glowing testimonials from people who have earned several hundred dollars within days of joining.

What I suggest is this.
As the system is completely free, sign up and watch the welcome videos. Once you have watched these , you will know whether you want to participate or not. If not, all you have lost is a bit of time, but I think that you will end up joining at least some of the programs.

From The Person Sitting At The Desk Of Wudbskibum

Just a quick update which I can assure you that I am writing myself.
I am fed up with seeing sales pages written by people's desks, presumably while they laze about on their yachts.

Yesterday I upgraded to the Silver level in Thelistauction and was able to send an email, promoting Acme-people-search to 2500 subscribers. This morning I had 9 new sign ups, potentially worth $270, for my $19.95 investment. I think this is terrific in just one day, with another 30 to go B4 next month's instalment. Plus, I can email another 1500+ every 5 days.

By then I may have decided to upgrade to Gold, sending my messages to over 3000 random members, every 3 days.
This is shaping up to be an excellent program, in my quest to take things to the next level.

Speak to you soon--My desk needs a polish.

The Easiest Program For Getting Referrals I Have Ever Joined

Yes it’s true.

I have promoted a number of affiliate programs over the last few years and acme-people-search has been by far the easiest for attracting affiliates.

Why is this?

Well this program ticks all the boxes.
It provides a service that 30% of people, using the major search engines, are looking for.
It gives affiliates a possible 5 income streams, through the programs Acme uses to generate sales, plus commissions from their referrals.

Since I joined I have had a steady stream of people signing up under me, resulting in my having several hundred dollars in pending payments. I say pending payments because commissions start to be paid after 30 days, when sign ups fully commit themselves to staying in the program, after their free trial finishes. There are then further commissions paid over the next 35 days. If these sign ups keep going for this period, my current pending payments will be doubled or trebled.
And why shouldn’t they keep going, as they will be in a similar position to where I am now?

To repeat what I’ve said previously, you only need one referral per month to break even, any more are worth $30 profit, each.
As if this is not enough, you also have your $125 signing up bonus to look forward to. Yes you get $125 just for joining Acme-people-search.
You only need three referrals to trigger this, [minimum payout is $200] and you’re well in profit.
Add on whatever money you make in sales, and don’t forget Acme are promoting your site for you, on top of your own efforts, and I think that it would be difficult not to make money out of this program.

Of course how well you do will be partly down to your own efforts.
I currently obtain traffic through using traffic exchanges, lead generators and this blog.
Most of the programs I use I am a free member of, but as money grows in my PayPal account, I am gradually upgrading. In general you get a lot more if you do this, and the results can explode very quickly.
Everybody says “the money is in the list” and, at the moment, mine is still very much a work in progress.
If you already have a decent list you will be able to make a lot more out of Acme, than I have.

However, for those of you without a big list I have been recommended a new program called The Listauction. Like most programs it has a free membership and upgrades.
The idea is that you can send emails promoting your business/opportunity and earn credits by reading emails sent to you, which enables you to post to a greater number.
Free members can email to between 500 and 1500 other random members every 7 days, silver to 1500+ every 5 and gold 3000+ every 3. Upgraded members can also auction or buy and sell credits and can post feature ads. This is a tremendous amount of exposure.
For the emails you receive it is best to create a separate email address just for these, and then surf them rather like a traffic exchange. The friend who recommended it to me says, he is getting tremendous success from this. I am presently trying out the free option, though may upgrade to silver soon, and suggest you have a look at it too.
Will probably talk about this further, in a future post.

Random Jottings

These are a few further points about programs already featured here, plus a musing about Adsense.

Viralurl
I’ve already talked about the benefits of Viralurl-- how essential it is to have a decent link cloaker if you are promoting affiliate programs, how you can build an ongoing, residual income from the referral program, and how it will help you to build a list.

The thing I didn’t mention is just how handy it is.

Most of us have to repeatedly insert the links for the programs we are promoting into any number of places. This usually involves struggling to remember long urls, that stretch into the distance, or going to the affiliate site, finding the referral link and then copy and pasting it.

However with Viralurl you only have to remember the core part of the url, which will then be the same for all your programs, and add an Id to it. For instance the Id for this blog is obviously weeklywinna and the second page winna2.

I find I can remember the Ids for most of my programs and when required, just type them in off the top of my head.

I would like to think that this program will help you save, and make money, and will make your life easier too.

GDI
One program I didn’t mention in my previous post is Networkstarteam.
They call themselves “the hottest Training Center For Your GDI Business”
They exist solely to promote GDI and like most programs are free with an optional upgrade.
One thing that is useful is that they have a direct link to a number of GDI capture pages, which are hidden away somewhere, if you wanted to find them, on the GDI site.
I hope this info. is useful to GDI members.

Free Viral
Traffic Digger
I haven’t done a post on these two traffic building programs, but have advertised them quietly in the background.
However if, like most of us, you are forever looking to send traffic to your sites/biz ops etc. they are worth a serious look at.
They are completely free and allow you to put an ad on their page.
All you have to do to get traffic to your ad is get referrals, you don’t have to do any surfing.
If you use traffic exchanges you are probably fed up with surfing anyway, but by adding these two programs to your exchanges, you will pick up referrals, which will build up the number of hits on your ads. As your referrals get referrals the number of hits to your ads will grow sharply and your site will get increasing traffic, with next to no effort on your part.

Acme-People-Search
Bit early to give a full report, but this is looking very promising.
I am getting a steady stream of referrals all of which are worth up to $30, if they carry on in the program, after their free trial period.
I am almost at the end of mine but will definitely stay in, as I only need one of the referrals to keep going to be breaking even, any number above this is profit.
Also, don’t forget that Acme is doing a lot of the work for me, and will follow up leads for twelve months provided I stay in the system. I am also making money from the leads that I am sending to one of the programs that I have become an affiliate of, through joining Acme.
Will post further when a reasonable number of the referrals have got to the end of their trial period and I have a better idea of how things are likely to go in the long term.

ADSENSE OR NONSENSE?
Lots of people who have websites and blogs cover them in Adsense aka Google ads.
To make any money out of these you need to have hundreds, probably thousands of clicks. Not easy unless you have hundreds of websites.
I am always coming across websites/blogs that are so infested with these ads it is difficult to read the content that is hidden amongst them.
What prompted me to comment on this is that earlier today I clicked on a site that sold screensavers.
When I arrived at the site, right in my eyeline were two large Google ads for, guess what --screensavers, because Adsense picks ads to display, that are relevant to the site they are displayed on.
Therefore visitors will possibly click on one these before they even look at the site itself, and never return. This is sales down the pan.
I also believe that if you use Adsense on sites that are on traffic exchanges, your account can be closed down, and you wont get it back. Worth thinking about.

Heavens I've Joined GDI

Yes I’ve joined GDI [Global Domains International].

Why am I surprised? because I’ve been aware of this program for ages, it’s been around since 1999ish, but I’ve always resisted joining.
Not sure why. I think it’s because I’ve always found it a bit pushy. Especially the noisy red car video--You must have noticed it.

Having said that ,I have to admit that it is obviously successful.
I personally know that one of the top earners at E-lottery, which probably means he makes a six figure income [GBP] out of it, uses GDI as his main business!
So why have I joined now?

Well having signed up with Acme-people-search I found that GDI was amongst the programs you need to join, to make money from it.

There are about three others that you need to join to receive commissions, all free, but GDI is different as you can make money from referrals through it, this being part of the package you get if you subscribe to Acme’s advertising program--See previous post.

GDI costs $10 a month but you receive a domain name, of your choice---GDI promotes .ws [website] which it thinks will eventually be a big alternative to .com, when that suffix exhausts most of the possible name combinations. You need very few referrals to be well ahead of your $10
At this point I was just going to leave it as part of the Acme P S set up, and mostly leave them to it, and maybe display a few direct GDI ads myself.

However, by pure coincidence I received an email with a new post from one of my favourite sites--affiliatecurve--all about promoting GDI.

The ideas in this were too good to resist , as they involved joining free programs that are already set up to promote GDI. Here is what is involved---

Obviously if you want to go along with this you need to join GDI and register your username so that you can use it for id in the free programs.
To join GDI please CLICK HERE, watch the video and sign up.

Once you are signed up you need to join Hits2u.

What Hits2U does is give visitors a place to submit an ad for THEIR site. Lots of people will be only to keen to submit their site for free advertising. Meanwhile, in the background, Hits2u offers your prospect more free advertising for their site - It shows them how to do that - By taking a trial of GDI and promoting the same Hits2U Link - What is great about this is that it's all done AUTOMATICALLY FOR YOU! You join Hits2U, enter your GDI Username (not your website, just your USERNAME) and anytime you get a "lead" that person may/may not check out GDI - All you do is promote Hits2U and the system does all the rest.

To join Hits2u, please CLICK HERE

Next join The Spiderweb Marketing System

This system is fairly new but I have read several good reviews of it, and Paul at Affiliate curve thinks that is the best place to promote GDI

Including GDI it promotes 22 different income streams which you can set up free of charge, including tutorial videos, for each one.

As luck would have it GDI is the first video set up on the Spidermarketing page and therefore the first one new signees will look at.
The video will do a very good job of selling GDI to these prospects but the system automatically follows them up with emails and tips.

To join the Spiderweb Marketing System please CLICK HERE.

All you have to do now is promote these two programs, along with Acme people search if you have joined, and these sites will do all the work for you.

You can also promote GDI directly with one of the several referral links on their site.

I hope Paul at Affiliatecurve doesn’t mind me pinching a couple of his ideas.
I have signed up to the above programs under him, and along with anyone signing up here, we’ll all be in his downline.

People Searches--Is This The Real Deal?

A few days ago I signed up with a people searching program.

Why? Well out of all the hundreds of online business sites, I am constantly seeing, this one looks really promising.
Why again? Apparently, trying to find lost friends, relatives, work colleagues etc. is involved in a massive 30% of all searches on Google. This must make it the biggest niche market, by a distance. And we are always told to"find our niche".

Now the first thing I have to say is that this program isn't free, but I think it's worth having a go at, and I will be letting you know how lucrative, or not, it is, as soon as it becomes clear.

Here is an overview of what's involved when you sign up.

First of all you have to choose, and then pay for, a domain name for your own people search website. I chose--- http://www.peoplelocata.com/
You have to pay for hosting, and you are given a link to the hosting company that the people search program is synchronized with.

Now you have your own people search site, and, as is usual with most online businesses, you are an affiliate for the program you have joined, giving you two prospective sources of income--- people, searching for people, and referrals.

With everything set up you will actually have three websites to promote.
Mine are as follows---

People search site--- http://www.peoplelocata.com/
Referral pre-sell site--- http://viralurl.com/extrasec/searches
Referral direct link--- http://peoplelocata.com/tissa.htm

At this point most programs leave you on your own to find ways to promote your sites.
Many will give you advice, or tempt you into upgrading so you can email your downline, get bigger commissions etc.

However Acme-people-search is different.
For a monthly fee, they will promote your search engine, on Google, Yahoo, MSN and others. using Pay per click etc.

Anyone who has tried ppc, and lost money, will know how complicated it is, and be relieved to have someone, with expertise, doing it for them.

Even better they give you a month's free trial, which involves 100 clicks, and if you're not happy you don't have to subscribe.
To make this offer they must be very confident of results, and of course you can still do your own promotion as well/instead.

And here's the best bit, they give you $125, just for signing up.
This easily covers your start up costs-- only thing is, they don't pay out until you reach $200, so you have to do some work and give the program a little bit of time before you receive this, but it's certainly a worthwhile incentive to give it a go.

Anyway that's what it's all about and I will report back when I see how things pan out.

Handy Disposable Email.

Are you overun with spam?

The problem is the more people you give your e.mail address to, the more spam you get.
Especially if you sign up for the many competions on offer at sites like Cashcrate and Plum prizes etc.

You sign up for a load of comps. and offers [Cashcrate pay you just for signing up to offers] and the next thing you know, you are deluged with spam and other unwanted messages.
One answer is to get a separate email address just for these sign ups and then abandon it when it becomes over subscribed.

However, while I was browsing Linkreferral, yesterday. I came across this alternative option.

It's called MailEater and is a site that provides you with temporary email addresses.
You just choose an identity, add it to MailEater.com and use it for sign ups. You can use your identity as many times as you like and go back to MailEater to check for messages, if you want to.

The messages are only kept for 4 hours before being deleted. You can change your identity as often as you like, there is no need to sign up and everything is completely free.

Very useful when you dont want to use your primary addresses.

Good Holiday/Vacation, Plus Some Unexpected Money

Great to have had a break, and plan my days around the unpreditable weather that the French Alps have to offer--red hot one day, then a mixture of variable to full blown thunder storms.

Annecy, near to where I was staying, provides a picturesque old town at the head of a large, crystal clear lake, surrounded by mountains, and an ideal water temperature for swimming or any other activity that your limbs will allow.

Of course I also kept up with my online activity, while I was there, and was surprised to find money coming in from an unexpected source.

A little while ago I joined, and started a limited amount of advertising for ViralUrl

I thought that this was a useful service, as it is a professional looking link cloaker that would save affilates, especially of Clickbank, from having there identities/hoplinks stolen and replaced.
It also keeps a tally of hits, showing where they are coming from, and allows you to put your own ads on other peoples sites.

I must admit that I hadn't looked at all the other services and upgrades provided, in any detail, and therefore was pleasantly surprised to find that, not only were people signing up, but some were upgrading to Gold membership, which brings me a payment of $9.40. Nice enough but having now studied the site more closely, I have found that these are not just one off payments, but recurr monthly.

Having had a good look I found that there are about five different membership levels, all of which provide a list building service and allow you to post to downlines of thousands, on a regular basis. With Gold membership you can also add colour and make your own ads bold.

All in all the more I look at this the more I see the huge potential that is on offer.

There are three main advantages to membership--You can protect your links and keep track of them, you can build a list and e.mail to downlines of thousands and you can build a recurring and steadily growing income from referalls.
Plus you can do much of this with the free version, if you're not yet in a position to consider the upgrades.

Therefore I thoroughly recommend that you have a good look at ViralUrl

It's done me a favour while I've been away and can do the same for you.

PS. Add on 27-7-08

Viral Url have just added a feature where you can put a small banner in your Facebook profile.
This means that whenever any other Facebook member visits your profile they may click on this,and possibly sign up.

For active Facebook members this could be very lucrative, especially if you promote yourself around the site.
Those of you who are serious enough to upgrade to Gold will receive around $120 per sign up, or $48.50 per month, depending which package they choose. Gold isn't cheap, but the above figures are for just one sign up, imagine how much money even a regular trickle of signees would bring in.

I'm getting quite excited about ViralUrl and hope some of my enthusiasm is rubbing off on you.

I'm Sloping Off

I'm sloping off for a couple of weeks, to La Clusaz in France, which is a ski resort, though unfortunately, not at this time of year. Still it's in the Alps, which is a great place to be in the summer, and my mate has an appartment there.
Therefore I am not likely to be posting for a while, I dont like posting for the sake of it anyway.

Anyone who was interested in the web2 upgrade site will realise that having passed July 1st the upgrades will have started.
The web2 upgrade people now have there system working in beta, which basically means it's up and running, though they will be ironing out any bugs as they go along.

If you want to see how this works you can go to the site and download their "buzzbot".
This puts an icon towards the top right of your screen. Clicking on it reveals a drop down menu which enables you to interact with other surfers on any site, or at least sites that have the same software, which could be loads of them if this is a success.
Basically they are hoping to provide a Facebook/Myspace/Youtube type experience with any site. So you will be able to interact with any of your friends or contacts, who have the Buzzbot, irespective of what site they are on.

I have a fairly open mind on all this and suggest if you want to weigh it up and see if it's for you, please click on this new link---

Have fun while I do---talk again in a couple of weeks

A Great List Builder

Want a Genuine FREE Money Making System

The internet is inundated with make money now and get rich quick schemes.
A few of these are worthwhile, most are not and the vast majority disappear within twelve months.

I am constantly looking for genuine programmes that will definately earn an income, providing enough effort is put into them. There are actually plenty of good ones out there--it's just a question of sorting the wheat from the chaff.

One thing I have noticed is that there are a lot of Pay to Click programmes that pay you a tiny amount for surfing. There are also some good free traffic sites that can get you a lot of hits.

So what? you might say--it will take for ever to make any worthwhile money.
Well not necessarily.

The one thing these programmes have in common is that your payments increase as you find referrals. Plus if you upgrade with some of them it can make a significant difference to your earnings, and some of the upgrades are really cheap.

So how do we make this work.

Well basically you join a number of these programmes, do the surfing, and add referrals. Also you decide which ones to stay in the free programmes of and when to upgrade.

Now your'e thinking how do I get referrals to all these programmes?

Well it's not as difficult as it seems.

There are several programmes that you can join that list the best free money making sites, which you then join, or as many as you fancy, then only promote the url of the organising programme. These are called "downline clubs".

Each person referred joins the organising programme and then automatically signs into the downlines of the other programmes you are in.
Therefore, your several small incomes get bigger and added together amount to something worthwhile.

Most programmes pay into PayPal or Alert Pay and after a little bit of effort these accounts will suddenly start to grow.

To find out more, get started and make some money I recommend Marketing Pond and My DownlineClub.

I Still Can't Believe It

As I am building up an online/offline income, with my home lottery business, I sometimes read marketing forums.

A few days ago I read a post that stood out from the others.
The writer stated that he'd read the most indredible, free e-book that he'd ever come across.
The viral twist in the final chapter, completely blew his mind.

Intrigued, I thought I'd have a look for myself.

Well, the main part of the book is packed with information, that would enable anybody to start earning money online, almost immediately, plus links to various, useful sources of further info.
It also explains how to use viral methods, to find eager customers---ironic as the book itself finishes, in chapter 5 with the most astonishing viral twist you are ever likely to see.

Anyway, because of my quick read of this book, I was extremely surprised to find, the next morning, that money was already coming into my Pay Pal account.

I'm not going to review the book any further, rather I am going to publish Harvey Segal, the author's own description of his work.

It's Goodbye To Google
by Harvey Segal

You read that right.
I've told Google to push off.
Stop spidering me.

I no longer want my online business to depend on its everchanging whims as to what makes a good or bad ranking.
I don't want to spend time collecting thousands of backward links then find that they are probably worthless because the anchor text does not contain a suitablekeyword, or the site does not have sufficient page rank,or whatever the latest algorithm is.

I don't want to buy expensive cloaking tools and run the risk of penalization.
I don't want to be bothered about whether a domain has astatic or dynamic IP address or have to use different hosts to make a network of minisites.

What's that you say ? You don't need fancy tricks - just provide good relevant content.

My answer ?

Nonsense.

I have a huge content site devoted solely to ClickBank, the only one of its kind.
If you wanted to find the most relevant content for a search on the keyword 'ClickBank' don't you think thatwould be at the top ?

Well Google used to agree with you.
It was ranked number 2, with only ClickBank.com itself atnumber one.

Today it is ranked ... wait for it ... number 426.
It is beaten out of sight by sites which have nothing to do with ClickBank but happen to mention that keyword once.

I asked a search engine expert about this and he suggested that it was due to keyword density, in other words toomany mentions of the word ClickBank.
Well that has to be the case - the site is after all a 'Complete Guide to ClickBank'
His advice - try replacing the word ClickBank occasionally e.g. use 'CB'.
No way.

That was the last straw and became the inspiration for me to develop a revolutionary approach to getting traffic.
It led to me being called 'The Guru who said goodbye to Google' in the marketing forums.

And this new approach ?

It uses some of the fundamental pillars of Internetmarketing that you already know - techniques which will never become obsolete.
But they are combined together in a new way and with aviral twist that you won't have seen before.

It includes giving out free information in a certain wayand I show you how exactly in my book, The UltimateSuperTip.

And just to illustrate the principle: the book is free and you can reproduce this article and change the URL to point to your own rebranded version.

Here's A Testimonial

From Kickstart Today #612.
My friend Harvey Segal has come up with a viral ebook that has so many new ideas and twists in it that it is just bound to take the Internet by storm.
It is called 'The Ultimate Supertip' and it is not just an explanation of one of the most powerful principles of Internet marketing, but also a fully working practical demonstration!
You can have this book for free - you don't even have to give Harvey your email address - and then immediately give it away to your friends, subscribers, website visitors, maiden aunts, long-lost cousins, and the really clever neat tricks that Harvey has built into it will start to make you money right away.
But all that is the icing on the cake - download the book, READ it from cover to cover, and learn one of the most powerful secrets of Internet marketing at the feet of the master.
And if you suspect I might be guilty of over-hyping (I'm not), read it anyway and tell me what you think.
Do it right now before you forget - this could be the most important lesson you'll learn today.
