Peter Garety – Strategic Link Building Panda Edition

If you have any experience of online marketing and especially if you are building sites you want to rank well in the organic search engine results you will be aware of the Google Panda update. In essence, this resulted in many websites being pushed down in the rankings and some obviously rose up the listings. The challenge for all of us therefore is to ensure that we are following SEO strategies that work now and have not become ineffective.

Building links has always been one of the bedrocks of ranking well and this is an area where you really need to be thinking in the present and the future rather than in the past. It is with this in mind that Peter Garety has launched his Strategic Link Building training which aims to get you to the top spot of Google for multiple keywords.

The days of finding loopholes and tricks are gone and this is really a step by step plan you can follow in building links that stick and ensure you do not waste your time with out dated tactics.

The training is very comprehensive and includes:

• The Strategic Link Building Panda Edition Blueprint
• 20+ Easy To Follow Video Tutorials
• A PDF Checklist For Each Of The Tutorial Videos
• A Dedicated Questions Module

You will see that this is being sold as a special offer right now and as such there are two further bonuses being offered in addition to the main training. The first is a Social Profile Builder software that you can use to find the availability of keywords in hundreds of social networking, Web 2.0 and social bookmarking sites which will save you a lot of time. The second bonus is one I really like which is a 8 week link building blueprint. I know from personal experience that you can easily become disorganised when you start building links to a site. Basically, each Sunday for 8 weeks you will receive a calendar for that particular week detailing what you need to do to keep you right on track.

As I mentioned before, this is available as a special offer right now and so if you are serious about building links to your sites, this is a very affordable and up to date training course. You can find out more details and see how you can get access to Strategic Link Building here.

Free Traffic From Automated Backlinking That Actually Works

The biggest challenge to anyone building a business through blogging is how to get consistent targeted traffic. It is obvious that without traffic to your site you are going to struggle and this is why you will always see lots of people talking about systems and new strategies. The problem is that you can become overloaded with information or be using tactics that no longer work.

Backlinking is one of the most important ways for you to get free traffic to your site and if done correctly you will find yourself ranking high in the search engines as you will have been identified as having authority due to the links pointing back to you. The main challenge that most marketers face is the type of links required to rank well and actually finding a way to automate this. Building links manually is not a great idea if you want to expand your business and have the time to concentrate on other areas of marketing. You really need to find a way to automate the process that actually gives you the links your site needs to rank well and stay there.

The solution, if you have a wordpress blog , may well be Auto Traffic Buddy which is a plugin that gets you links and traffic automatically. This has been released by two well respected marketers, Jason Potash and Jason Katzenback. You will also read about Richard Henderson on the Auto Traffic Buddy site who was instrumental in why and how this was put together. Once you install the plugin on your blog, it will automatically grab content snippets from your posts and syndicate these throughout dozens or potentially hundreds of other websites in their network of sites.

The way this works is that you will be getting backlinks to your sites automatically once you set everything up and so you no longer have to worry about the amount of manual work that would usually be required. It is even smart enough to deep link meaning that you will be building links to all of your posts and this is really important in indexing and ranking all the pages on your site. You can install this on as many blogs as you like, so if your aim is to have your own empire of wordpress sites bringing you passive income every month, this could be an ideal way to make it happen.

This plugin is available right now and you can get all the details by visiting the Auto Traffic Buddy site here.

If you really want to learn from experts in this area, then you are in the right place as Matt Carter and Terry Kyle are able to get over 200,000 visitors to all of their sites and this has resulted in seven figure earnings for them. SEO Experts Academy is going to give you the chance to learn their secrets and strategies.

I will be posting more about this training in the coming days, so that you can make an informed decision about whether this course is a good fit for you.

Optin App For WordPress Delivers Verified Emails From Facebook

If you have been marketing on the internet for any length of time, I am sure you are aware of the importance of building your own list of subscribers. If you are not building a list, you are missing out on possibly the most important asset you can own. This remains the case today and forward thinking marketers are now looking at ways to leverage this with the power of social media. Facebook is the biggest social media platform out there and a new optin app for wordpress allows you to collect email addresses that users sign up to Facebook with.

This optin app has been developed and tested by Derrick VanDyke and Todd Gross. The idea behind this is to ensure you are building a list of qualified subscribers rather than potentially throw away email addresses that people some times use to get access to a free report or whatever else is being offered as an incentive to join a list. This uses a function that is built into to Facebook called Facebook connect. If people connect to you in this way, it will be through a qualified email address since this is the one they use for Facebook.

The flexibility of the app allows you still to collect email addresses in the normal way and you may want to give people that choice. However, so many people now use Facebook that they may well be happy to connect with you in this way. If you want to profit further with this yourself, you can purchase a developers license that would allow you to create apps for other businesses. This is a very powerful concept and business opportunity if you want make some good returns whilst helping other business clients. A major advantage to all of this is that it is easy to use. In fact, you will be able to follow step by step videos that show you what to do and then you are all set to go.

The internet as we know is a fast moving environment and you can either be ahead of the curve or behind it. This is your chance to be in at the start of the new way to build a list and ultimately build a solid business for yourself and by helping others as well if you choose to do so.

You can see a video of how to set up the optin app and how you can get your copy by clicking here.

In life we are often presented with opportunities that become either a turning point in our lives or a moment we regret for not taking action. This month presents one of those moments. This blog was set up to highlight people who succeed online, especially in the area of blogging. In particular, I try to ensure that you are made aware of those who can help you to enjoy success as well. One such person is Yaro Starak who is closing his Blog Mastermind program for good at the end of September 2011.

He also has a track record of mentoring others to success and for those of you with more experience I am sure you will know of his reputation in the marketplace.

Blog Mastermind was set up to give you all the training you need to build a real business through blogging whilst showing you how you can do this in such a way that you will have the time to enjoy the freedom that making money online can give you. Yaro has demonstrated through his own blog, Entrepreneurs-Journey, just how you can build a really profitable business and this can work in any number of markets. If you take a look at what is on offer here, it is refreshing to see a marketer show you exactly what you will get inside of the training before you make the decision to buy. This is probably because he knows the value he is providing here and the fact that he already has many success stories from those he has trained.

There are also interviews with other top bloggers, a forum and  traffic opportunities that are only available to members.

Chris Farrell Launches Six Week Online Mentoring Program

One of the most common requests you will see in online marketing is how you can get real coaching that takes you through all the steps of setting up an online business through to actually making money. Fortunately, that call has been answered by Chris Farrell who has launched his Chris Mentor Me coaching program. If you don’t know Chris, then his story makes interesting reading. He started his online ventures in 2008 and began like many of us in feeling a little lost and overwhelmed. If you fast forward to today, he is a seven figure internet marketer who has really shown the benefits of focus and action.

A skill that Chris possesses, which is often missing from successful internet marketers, is that he has the ability to teach what he does so that others can follow him step by step through to actually making money. That is the goal of this new coaching program. So what exactly is the Chris Mentor Me program all about?

This is a six week online training course that will equip you with all the skills you need to run your own successful online business. During the course of those six weeks you will get to learn and put into action the following lessons:

• The foundations of your income blueprint including niche selection.
• All you need to know in technical terms to set up websites and create compelling offers.
• Making money by initially building a small list of customers and constructing an email campaign.
• How to scale your business up and build loyalty with your followers.
• Providing value to your customers and why you achieve greater success the more you are able to help others.
• All the traffic techniques required to make sure you get floods of visitors to your sites.

This is just part of what you will get with this program and one important element that is also provided is a license for the Optimize Press wordpress theme. If you are familiar with wordpress you will know that there are free themes and paid themes which normally offer far more flexibility and functions than the free ones. You would normally have to pay for Optimize Press and this theme has become very popular with internet marketers. The great thing with this course is that you will be shown how to use this theme regardless of your technical ability right now.

Chris Farrell has a good reputation in the marketplace and if you are looking for real coaching and mentoring, then this could be the right program for you. He is making a guarantee that everyone who takes part will make money within the six week timeframe and so he is really putting himself on the line with this launch.

Important Update: Brian Johnson is holding a Rank And Pillage webinar on Tuesday 16 August 2011 at 6 PM EDT. You can register for this powerful presentation here.

In my last post, I announced that Brian Johnson and Aidan Booth were set to launch their Rank And Pillage training course and the product has now been officially released. I will now cover in some detail what you will get if you decide to purchase the course since as I mentioned before, I can vouch for Brian Johnson’s training. He has released many successful courses in the past such as SEO Press Formula, Commission Ritual, Auto Content Cash, Halloween Super Affiliate, and 300 Internet Marketers. This course is a joint creation with one of his successful students Aidan Booth.

I know from my experience of Brian Johnson’s training that he looks to cover everything you need to know whether you are new or already have some experience. There are so many ways to monetize sites online whether it be promoting digital products through Clickbank or physical products using Amazon, in addition to Google’s adsense program. To give you some idea of the amount of material here, you get access to a manual containing over 250 pages and in excess of 100 over the shoulder type videos you can watch and take action on. You will get two exclusive wordpress themes that are designed specifically for their Rank And Pillage training.

These are real strategies that Brian and Aidan use to leverage free traffic to make big profits online. So let’s take a look at what is actually inside each module of the Rank And Pillage training:

Module 1 – As you might expect this is an introduction to the training and what is required to become a success online.

Module 2 – Traffic Battle Plan – it is obvious that you need traffic to your sites to succeed an here you will learn about how much you need and the type of traffic you should aim for.

Module 3 – SEO Siege – Brian is an expert in gaining first page and number one rankings in Google. Those strategies are shared here, many of which are new and have not been revealed before.

Module 4 – The Pillage Blueprints – The aim, of course, with using these strategies is to make some money. In this module you will learn all of the ways to profit from affiliate networks such as Clickbank, Amazon and Commission Junction. In addition, email marketing, adsense and profiting from product launches is covered.

Module 5 – Fortress Foundation Brick by Brick – To take advantage of these tactics you need to know how to set up your sites in the right way. Regardless of if you are new or already know how to set up wordpress sites, you will be walked through exactly what you need to know.

Modules 6 – Link Catapult Formulas – Building links to your sites is essential and Brian and Aidan reveal their link building strategies in great detail.

Module 7 – King of Your Empire – As soon as you have a site making money, you are in a position to take it to the next level. This module shows you how to take things to that next level and dominate a niche.

Module 8 – Outsourcing Crusade – Outsourcing allows you to grow your business quickly. Aidan Booth is an expert in this area and shows you how to get good quality work at the best prices.

The Rank And Pillage training course really gives you a blueprint to creating residual income streams online and in the process you are creating assets that will have value if you decide to sell any of your sites in the future. My advice with this is to take focused action with the training and if you do that you will see results. You can get access to the Rank And Pillage training here.

If there is one person I can credit with giving me the knowledge to put wordpress blogs online and how to actually monetize these it would be Brian Johnson. The particular course I followed at the time was Commission Ritual and I have actually featured this in an earlier post. Brian is someone who has worked diligently in putting his online business together and as a result of this he is now enjoying the success that comes with this. A skill he has that benefits others is his ability to put together training that people can follow regardless of experience.

He is now releasing a new course in conjunction with one of his students, Aidan Booth whose success is proof of Brian’s teaching methods and evidence of what can happen with a degree of focus and action. The new training which is due to be released on 26 July 2011 is called Rank And Pillage and I will post more details of the course shortly. However, at this stage you can sign up for a free report that shows an actual case study with real results and methods that were used to enter a particular niche and create a site that is already on track to earning $500 a month on autopilot.

The important thing to note here is that you will see that some effort, work and action were required to do this. However, if you can learn to do this and repeat this on a regular basis, you can see that the effort will be rewarded with the kind of lifestyle that Brian and Aidan now enjoy as a result of online marketing.

Aidan spent much of 2010 travelling throughout Europe as a result of the residual income streams he has developed. Naturally, this report is just one aspect of what the Rank And Pillage training will look to teach. My own personal experience of working with Brian Johnson’s methods enable me to recommend that you sign up here so that you will also be notified as soon as the course is released.

It is my intention to feature marketers on this site who have made their reputation through delivering quality content and who have been around long enough to show they have a track record of success. One such person is Brad Gosse who originally started building websites for other people in 1996 which is a long time ago in online marketing terms. He has gone on to develop a very successful business for himself and over that time he has of course developed and fine tuned many ways to get traffic to his websites.

Brad is hosting a webinar on 13 July 2011 at 8 PM EDT about getting free targeted traffic and one particular way that he is able to do this. The problem with many of the traffic techniques out there is that they take a lot of time and may not give you the quick results you are looking for. In this webinar you will learn some techniques about getting traffic from images that link to your sites and how you can repeat this over and over again once you know what to do. This is a webinar worth registering for and taking the time to attend as you should go away with new ways to drive more traffic to your sites.

You can register for the free webinar here.

Brad appears to be quite an innovative marketer and if you do attend the webinar I am sure you will learn a lot. He has also recently released a very cool domain tool which you may want to take a look at. This will give you a chance to see who Brad is and more importantly be one of the first to know about this tool as it is still relatively new to the market. It is called Feednamer and it is particularly good at finding trending domains. As  you may know domains can become very valuable in their own right and even more so if you monetize them using a wordpress blog for instance. You can see a demo of how this works at the Feednamer site here.

Live Training – Newbie To $74k In Four Months

Webinar Recording Now Available Here.

The exciting part about being involved with marketing online is that as technology evolves, new opportunities and ways to get traffic and sales are made available to us. Once in a while somebody comes along and grasps the moment to achieve that fast success that we all dream of. One such person is Russ Ruffino who as the headline says, quit his job and stepped into the online world and managed to earn over seventy thousand dollars in four months. He did this by embracing the power of video marketing and he is living proof of what you can do with focus and a system that works in today’s marketplace.

We are all now used seeing videos online and they are definitely here to stay. There are literally hours of video footage being uploaded online every minute of the day and billions of people are viewing these. If done correctly, you can see a big increase in the conversions from your sites. The key of course, is to do it in the right way and in many cases online it is easy to over complicate things. If there is a proven model that is working and you get a chance to copy this for yourself there is a good chance that you can see similar results.

Russ is opening the doors for you so that you can see how he has managed to pull in such numbers with the techniques that he uses. You can sign up for a free webinar on 29 June 2011 at 8 PM EDT which will be hosted by Russ. You will get the chance to see inside a live sales funnel that is producing conversions at 4 – 5% right now and how you can use these tactics in your own online business. There is more and more emphasis now in being seen as a trusted expert in your niche and once you have the confidence of your audience they become your fans and refer you to others.

You can now listen to a replay of the webinar here.

I have previously posted about the excellent Blogging Underground network that enables you to get high quality links for targeted keywords that are important for getting pages indexed and pushing you to the top of the search engine rankings.

I can now give you access to a webinar replay that gives you more information not only about the blog network and how it works but also to let you hear some valuable insights into back linking strategies and how important it is to get this right. The webinar featured Blogging Underground creator Mike Liebner and was hosted by another very successful internet marketer James Schramko. It is interesting to hear how important James considers his membership to be to his own success and to have this endorsement from someone who is running a highly profitable online business makes this a webinar you should take time to listen to.

One of the problems with internet marketing information is that you seem to be hit with new strategies all the time that are either short lived or just do not work. Therefore when you get the opportunity to hear from someone who has been around a long time, then it is well worth taking notice of any advice that is provided. Mike Liebner has realised that for long term success you need to target the right keywords and then get links pointing back to your urls that contain the relevant anchor text. However, those relevant links are not as easy to find as you might think which is why Blogging Underground was created.

The fact that you get access to a network of blogs that get you links from all over the world is very powerful. These blogs are constantly being crawled by Google and therefore if you put your own posts onto these blogs with links back to your own sites, then the resulting link juice you get from these can give you a very competitive edge. I recommend you take the time to listen to the Blogging Underground webinar here and then you can make an informed decision whether to take advantage of what you can gain by being a member.

If you are trying to make money from blogging you will know that researching keywords for your headlines is vital to your success. If you get this right, you can very quickly get high search engine rankings and this is how you get visitors and ultimately profits.

This is exactly what Keyword Winner will do for you and  will change they way you do your research. The time saved is measurable when you think it could be possible to find headline keywords in less than a minute.

This can be a valuable addition to any tools you are currently using to make money from blogging and you can go straight to the Keyword Winner site here.

Lazy Affiliate Riches Brought To You By Jeff Dedrick And John Hostler

Affiliate marketing is one of the most simple concepts for making money online and yet you can find yourself spending a lot of your time completing all the tasks required to have everything set up to get started. It is just a fact that you can use plenty of energy and valuable time putting all the pieces into place and this can leave you with less hours to actually market and monetize your efforts. It is because of this that Jeff Dedrick along with John Hostler have released Lazy Affiliate Riches.

The word lazy maybe conjures up the idea of doing nothing and that is never the case if you want to make money online and so really what we are talking about here is automation. Jeff Dedrick has been a successful marketer for some time now and his story is an interesting one. He was actually a very successful entrepreneur before he started his internet business and the reasons he switched was because he wanted more free time to enjoy life with his family. As such he was able to invest money to ensure he could find ways to completely automate everything for him.

The idea behind Lazy Affiliate Riches is to give you the tools to do this for yourself and I have had the chance to look inside the product to see what is actually on offer here. In essence, you are presented with software that can build multiple lists, enable you to market to those lists and make money from emails sent to those subscribers. This can be set up in minutes and you can then let everything run on autopilot giving you the opportunity to work less to earn more.

The amount of control you have with the list building is up to you. There is even software capability to turn existing blogs and websites into automated list building vehicles. If you decide that this is for you, there are also upgrade options available. For instance, we all know that Facebook is a very hot topic in affiliate marketing right now. One of the upgrades will enable you to create your own Facebook fan pages just by copying and pasting some code.

Jeff Dedrick and John Hostler appear to have the genuine aim of helping you to succeed in affiliate marketing and to allow you the time to enjoy your success. You can learn more about Lazy Affiliate Riches here.

Blogging Underground - Linking Your Way To The Top Of The Search Engines 

I was recently reading a blog post from a marketer I admire and he was talking about a simple process for making money online. It basically revolved  around finding trending products to promote and then setting up a wordpress blog on a keyword domain to review these. One point that caught my eye in the process was the need then to get links to your site and he said that 99% of your time should be spent doing this. The reason for this is that you want your site to be ranking high in the search engines to get you floods of free traffic since it is clear that without visitors you earn nothing. The timing of reading this post coincided with me joining a new membership site called Blogging Underground.

The idea behind building links back to your site, is that Google will see that your pages are relevant to what people are searching for and therefore they will push up your website’s ranking. This may not be new to you but it is a fact that people do this the wrong way and it is becoming more important to have natural relevant links since this is what Google are looking to see. In essence they want to see backlinks from another site that has relevant content and that the link coming back to you has the keyword you want to rank for in the anchor text which is the text contained within the link.

If you try to set up your own network of feeder sites to do this, it could be expensive and time consuming and this is where Blogging Underground can help you. As a member you get access to an aged network of over 350 blogs and these are of a high quality which means that Google will show a high regard to the links coming back to you. Simply put, this means you can get high rankings quickly. The posting process is easy, especially if you are familiar with wordpress. In any event, there are step by step videos which show you exactly what to do.

I have posted on the blogs myself and can confirm that it was easy to do and I quickly had a link posted back to my site on my first attempt. The membership is very affordable in terms of the value you get and the time this saves you. There is an option to pay monthly or annually and if you choose the annual payment you will save a lot of money as well as receiving an extra bonus for doing so. The blog linking network is not all that you get with this as there are lots of other resources such as training and done for you keyword research.

So if you want to find out how you can access this and be able to quickly index your site to achieve high search engine rankings you can find out more at the Blogging Underground site.
