__________________________________
Hi:
I happen to be working on the last part of
this issue at a community college library in
Bullhead City, Arizona.
I am planning to move back to the east
coast (of the USA), but there are some
things I have to clear up first out west.
One thing in the works is to set up a
iNevada corporation and then domicile
the corporation in a tax haven (more on
that strategy at another time.
I have some extremely valuable free
resources in this issue, and I hope you
are passing on this info to members of
your optin lists.
You do have opt-in lists that you control,
don't you??
If not, get busy!!
The money is in the list!
May your profits soar from this issue's
info.

Another 8 Level
Free Advertising Network
http://www.20millionads.com/servlet/ads?member=taxtorpedo
This website, 20MillionAds, is a sister website
to the site, 20MillionHits, featured in the last
issue.
This network has one limitation for free
members that I do not particularly like
that you should be aware of:
Once you select an url (website) to promote
and write the accompanying ad, you can't
change it unless you become a pro member
($12 per year).
Therefore, when you join use an ad tracker
url to point to the website you are promoting.
In addition, use a generic description in your
ad that could apply to a variety of websites
of the same type.
In this way you will be able to change websites
that you are actively promoting through this
network.
Use this website to build your opt in lists. Offer
something free where the website visitor can
take a quick, decisive action.

Powerful Forum
Research Website
http://www.mikes-marketing-tools.com/marketing-forum/
Track topics of interest and headlines from over
65 of your favorite Internet marketing and
search engine discussion forums and message
boards, updated every 5 minutes.
This whole website is a gem, but the feature
that attracted me most was the monitoring of
posts at forums.
This website is likely to save you an
extraordinary amount of time. Knowing about
this type of resource and passing the
information on will greatly enhance your
standing as a source of valuable information in
the judgment of your opt-in list members.
Few if any opt-in list members will object to
your occasional commercial message, when
you pass on info this good.

10 Better Ways Than
"SEO"
To Get Web Site Traffïc
By Joe McVoy
Does your web site clearly tell your prospects
why they should do business with you instead
of your competitors? Does it have a clear
"call-to-action"?
Are you set up to track your visitors and
conversion rates? And lastly, do you know
what a visitor is worth? If you've done all this,
you're ready to bring traffïc to your site. If
you haven't, go back and do those things or
you'll be wasting money.
Everyone wants "organic" or "free" traffïc, but
it's a full time job to try to keep on top of the
search engines changing rules. Instead, if you
build a good content-rich site and do the things
on this list, you'll get traffïc from these things
and help your ranking at the same time.
:: Pay-Per-Click (PPC) – Get traffïc in an
hour with PPC. Google and Overture (now
Yahoo) are the primary ones, but you might
also want to consider FindWhat.com.
Key to make this work: know your visitor
value, bid on hundreds of keywords and
phrases that are not too competitive, and
track each keyword or phrase separately.
:: Distribute Your Content – write
articles of value to your target market.
Distribute that content for other webmasters
to use on their sites as long as they keep
the link back to you in a "resource box" at
the end of each article.
Distribute your articles through article
directories, ezines, and your blog. Key to
make this work: valuable content.
:: Submit Press Releases – submit
electronic press releases frequently with news
of interest to the media and your target market.
Since press releases are news, if they get picked
up, it will be quickly and you can get hundreds
of links back to your site this way.
Key to make this work: write 300 – 500 word
releases, include a link back to you, and have
them written and distributed by experts who
know how to optimize each release for keywords
(not typical PR firms).
:: Set Up a Blog with RSS – to be
effective blogs must have frequently updated
content. Base yours on information helpful to
your customers, not salës pitches. Don't do it
unless you can commit some ongoing time to it.
Seth Godin says the keys to a successful blog
are:
(1) Candor
(2) Urgency
(3) Timeliness
(4) Pithiness – be short & to the point
(5) Controversy.
Key to make this work: make it interesting to
your visitors, submit to all the blog directories,
ping the search engines when you post,
distribute your content with RSS (others can use
on their blogs or web sites without the hassle of
negotiating permission and distribution doesn't
get caught in sp@m filters like email).
:: Get One-Way Incoming Links –
All the above will create incoming, one-way
links, but you can also buy links from other
sites and from text link brokers. Don't bother
with reciprocal linking, it's dead.
Make sure you get links from pages with a
Google page rank higher than 0. A site
Google rates as 0 may be because they
are penalizing it for some reason and if
you link to it, you will get hurt as a result.
Key to make this work: Make sure links
have your keywords in the anchor text
and make sure they are text, not graphical
links. Make sure they are from other
relevant sites, not link farms or FFA sites.
Best is links from pages without many
other links.
:: Give Other Sites Your Testimonial
Let them publish it on their web site as
long as they link back to you. This can
get you a one-way link from a site that
would otherwise not give it to you. Key
to make this work: keep it short and to
the point.
:: Email Promotions - Advertise in
Ezines, place ads in someone else's email
newsletters that reach your target market.
Key to make this work: track everything
carefully.
:: Joint Ventures – Get promoted
to your JV partner's customer database by
your JV partner. John Reese sold over $1
Million of his information product in 24
hours exclusively by using joint venture
promotions from his partners sending his
offer to their customer lists.
He paid his partners 50% commission on
salës. Key to make this work: know your
visitor value and have a tested and proven
salës page that converts well BEFORE you
contact JV prospects.
:: Get Affiliates – If selling
a product, offer a commission to affiliates
to sell for you. Each affiliate's link to your
salës letter conversion page will bring you
traffïc and a better search engine rank too.
Key to make this work: Make it financially
attractive to your affiliates, provide all the
promotional and salës materials, give them
as many tracking codes as they want so they
can track each thing they do at their end,
do the work for them and make it easy to
sign up.
Provide tested emails, banners, and other
tools for them to use.
:: Buy Other Web Sites – Find
web sites that already rank high on your
keywords, verify their traffïc with the site
owner and buy their site. Make sure to get
ownership of the domain – you can let them
still use their content elsewhere.
Chëck deleteddomains.com to see what
domains you register for a few dollars that
their owners have let expire. Key to make
this work: Chëck Google page rank, Alexa
rank and number of back links for any site
before you buy it.
(One marketer I know challenged some
SEO experts to see who could get ranked
highest on a given term in 24 hours – he
won, the techies did a lot of things, but the
marketer just bought the site that was # 1.)
And lastly, the one everyone usually starts
with...
:: Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
Lots of technical issues and you should hire
an expert to do it for you. Anyone who
guarantees high rankings is a fraud because
no one can guarantëe Google or Yahoo will
do anything and the rules change constantly.
(They will guarantëe some key word like
your company name, but not a competitive
word that would do you any good). How
your site is designed is the key to this.
The big 3 of SEO are:
Content
Relevant one-way incoming links
with good Google PR
Proper site design.
Everything listed in the 10 points above helps
with content and providing one-way links, so
all you need to add is proper site design.
Key to make this work: don't think one page
site, think a site with hundreds of optimized
pages all tightly themed and relevant to one
target market.
Make sure to get someone ethical and
competent. People publishing articles on
MarketingSherpa.com or SiteProNews.com
are typically good.

I Heard It
Through The
Grapevine
Talking Clock
Proudly showing off his new apartment to a
couple of his friends late one night, the drunk
led the way to his bedroom where there was
a big brass gong.
"What's that big brass gong?" one of the guests
asked.
"It's not a gong. It's a talking clock," the drunk
replied.
"A talking clock? Seriously? asked his
astonished friend.
"Yup," replied the drunk.
"How's it work?" the 2nd guest asked, squinting
at it.
"Watch," the drunk replied. He picked up a
hammer, gave it an ear-shattering pound
and stepped back. The three stood looking at
one another for a moment.
Suddenly, someone on the other side of the wall
screamed: "HEY YOU JERK!!! it's ten past three
in the morning!"
