Earn Extra Money

What would you say is the MOST important asset in your internet marketing business?
Would you say your list? With everything you hear about the money being in the list, it would have been my first guess.

That’s close…but not quite!

Tell me, what you would do without YOUR COMPUTER? Having an efficient desktop or laptop is crucial to productivity and the ultimate machine to earn extra money online.

I was reading through the XSPCheatSheet.com and one of the suggestions James Schramko makes is to clear the computer of any superseded or useless files and cached memory and this action would speed my computer up dramatically and have it running like a new machine.

The name of the product is PC Secret Formula. This online business tool was developed by a former hacker turned certified computer geek Chris Mainieri. This is formula that helps average, everyday people like you and I speed up, optimize and secure any personal computer.

Why is my Computer So Slow?

How about speed? Do you ever get frustrated with your dead slow PC and think of how fast it use to run when it was new? One of the things that use to annoy the hell out of me was waiting for my PC to load programs and process requests.

Did you realize there are many programs and scripts recording and archiving your every move as you use your PC day to day? What hurts even more is knowing that every last one of these things take up a part of your system’s resources and can slow your computer to a crawl.

Most of the ‘computer speed up’ software out there focus only on ONE problem area, but its far from enough. Products like “PC Doctor” and “Registry Fixer” are decent products but do not utilise a lot of your computer’s speed potential.

PC Secret Formula system covers all important areas so your computer is literally forced to perform at maximum speed and that’s why I would definitely recommend the PC Secret Formula to everyone who feels their computer is running slower than it could be should be.

Using PC Secret Formula

I printed out the report and followed the steps as outlined by Kris. The formula literally took me by the hand and lead me through the process. It wasn’t hard. I worked on three machines at the same time and at least for me it worked like a treat. It made the PCs faster again without blowing them up.

First you get your machine cleaned up and to get familiar with software. The good news is that all the software names there are freeware, so there are no extra costs. I found that if I took my time, I was able to digest the information the first time around. I was taught exactly what to do and what NOT to do.

I was taught how to use the software and a number of built-in Windows utilities to fix the computers. After that I have a regular maintenance plan to follow which takes much less time to implement.

What I didn’t like about PC Secret Formula?

There isn’t much I didn’t like about the report. It took me a few hours to get through but if you remember my earlier comment, I was working on a few machines at the same time. I wouldn’t say that I was a hardcore amateur but rather an intermediate pc user and the report suited me fine. The hardcore users would not need as much information and will probably cut their reading time by at least half.

Download a Leaked Chapter

To give you an idea of the sort of information that is in the report, download a leaked chapter of the PC Secret Formula.

Conclusion

Overall, PC Secret Formula is an easy-to-follow and well put together ebook. I saw significant performance improvements in my pcs and was wrapped in the boot up time and the speed of my browser.

You really need to check this product out. You’ll be really surprised at the price!

I had been looking at joining the Wealthy Affiliate membership site for quite a while but there was always something more important to do and I didn’t want to waste the membership when I was busy with other things.

As I mentioned in the last post, Amir Darwish of Xtreme Conversions is one of the many success stories of Wealthy Affiliate and James Schramko of Internet Marketing Speed, highly recommended the training and resources they offered. Not long ago Kyle and Carson, who are the co founders of Wealthy Affiliate informed us that they were going to increase the monthly membership fee. It was time to join.

I have mentioned previously that most people I know have the desire to ‘earn extra money’. It is on the mind of a lot of people especially with what is happening with the global economy right now. This means that the audience must be massive.

One effective technique used by online marketers to ‘earn extra money’ is to make use of a landing page to promote products.

What is a landing page? Put simply, a landing page is a single page on your website that your traffic is sent to.

There are different types of landing pages and we’ll talk about those in a moment but the whole idea is that the landing page sends the prospect to the merchant website via your affiliate link.

Review type landing pages allow you to compare products and offer personal views or information about the products. Providing your visitors with a choice of the top rated products in an industry can increase your conversions over direct linking.

How do you get the traffic? That is a whole new set of videos but a few examples include pay per click search engine marketing campaigns (ppc), banner ads, links in an email, or traffic is sent via a blog post. Click this link to see how this technique works.

This review type landing page technique is an example of the sort of material they teach in the Wealthy Affiliate University. The excellent part about this site is that my affiliate information is already coded within the reviews. I don’t have to do much except to cast the line out and promote it. Check out this link and see what I mean.

In the next post I’ll do something similar using the tools provided with a subscription to Google Nemesis.

By now you would have heard of the launch last week of Traffic Secrets 2.0 by John Reece.

It is a step by step system, proven scientific system that John personally uses to generate as much as 2,000,000 visitors per day from his current portfolio of websites. Can you comprehend that? I’m having a great deal of trouble comprehending that much traffic.  I’d say that thousands of tests and plenty of experimentation has gone into developing the different traffic generating techniques.

If you need to question his credibility, this bloke has earned the honor of owning three web sites within the ‘500 most trafficked web sites in the world’….bloody show-off!

In August 2004, Traffic Secrets was launched and it quickly became one of the best internet marketing courses of all time with over $1 million dollars in sales within 18 hours.  There are many success stories of people who bought the course, applied the techniques and started getting a lot of targeted traffic. James Schramko of Internet Marketing Speed says he made a huge mistake not buying this product earlier than he did and gave up many thousands of dollars waiting.

A lot has changed over the last four years as we have seen the social media explode online. Social networking, social bookmarking, social news and video marketing has gone crazy. There are new syndication opportunities for having content published all over the internet and new communication tools are in play to drive prospects back to your websites again and again. Because of these changes, he needed to update Traffic Secrets to take advantage of these opportunities.

What John has succeeded in doing is he has created a learning platform to make it easier for someone to follow step by step instructions so they can carry out this system and start getting targeted traffic immediatley. The foundation of the course is 12 interactive CD-Roms covering:

• Marketing Foundations
• Marketing Discovery and Research
• Keyword Science
• SEO Dynamics
• Content Factory
• Video Marketing
• Social Marketing Strategies
• Mastering Adwords
• Advertising Methods
• Widgets and Software
• Using an Affiliate Army
• Master Plan with specific steps for putting it all together

The course also includes:

• a 377 page Training Guide
• Web Based Workbook tracking your traffiic getting projects
• 7 Blueprint Handouts
• Free Lifetime access to Private Coaching and a private Mastermind Community
• ALL FUTURE LIFETIME COURSE UPDATES for no monthly fees.

I believe that your biggest decision is not whether you should buy the course but from whom. There are marketers out there offering very special bonuses.

If you are looking for real value, I suggest going to  Internet Marketing Speed and see what James Schramko is offering as a bonus. Briefly, he is offering twelve monthly video modules each based on a traffic related subject. You can check out the bonus by going to TrafficSecretsMonthly.com.

BTW, the first module for the course is already available.

Again this is not a paid presentation but an opinion and that is what ‘blogging’ is all about, isn’t it?  We all need to know who we can trust in this game.

I first came across James when I was looking to purchase XSitePro. His bonus with this product is the XSP Cheat Sheet. He has updated this bonus for XSitePro Version 2 but an appraisal of these products can wait for another day.

The time has arrived to ask yourself whether Internet Marketing is something more than just a hobby or definitely a career you want to pursue and be serious about.  If paying your bills depends on making money online, it is essential you worry less about how a web site looks and focus more on generating targeted traffic and converting that traffic. In my humble opinion, this what Traffic Secrets 2.0 is all about.

Without a doubt, the buzz in the air at the moment is Google Nemesis. My inbox is full of promotions. I am going to have to unsubscribe to a few more of the so called gurus ‘me thinks’.

Could it be that Chris McNeeny has done it again? Who is Chris McNeeny when he is at home you may ask? For those of you who don’t know, he is a guy who back in 2006 took the affiliate marketing game by the throat and is now legitimately making over a million dollars a year as an affiliate marketer. Remarkably he is better reknown for revealing his strategies to upcoming affiliate marketers.

You may remember these few gems:
Adwords Miracle
Affiliate Project X
Day Job Killer
Google Assassin

These products broke Clickbank records and changed the face of affiliate marketing.

What have we heard of his latest product Google Nemesis ?

First off, this is not another eBook with information on the latest tips and tricks or another overpriced home study course…thank God! It is a membership site whose primary goal is to earn extra money on the internet using Google AdWords and the power of Affiliate Marketing.

There is a common factor that prevents a lot of people from kicking on in this business and that is the ‘technical stuff’. What do I mean by ‘technical stuff”? I mean the landing pages or the presell pages, the html and the css coding to build web pages, the hosting and the conversion tracking to name a few. This is where Google Nemesis comes into its own.

The attraction is the software package which automates all the complicated aspects of affiliate marketing that normally stops new affilates in their tracks. This makes the process dead easy. If you can point and click, select a color then cut and paste, you can do this. It has an online tool that builds the landing pages as well as loads of videos that walks you through the affilate marketing process. You get Google Wealth Wizard which you received with Google Assassin and you will also learn to write the ideal review page and learn to pick out the top performing adwords.

The basic product is $USD 67 per month and then an upgraded additional product for another $USD 47 per month. I cannot offer you a bonus but if you are after value go to http://www.nemesisbully.com and purchase the package through this site. Andre Chaperon offers a great bonus which I believe will be worth more than value of the package itself. This is only available for the next 24 hours. I’ve purchased products through him previously and the bonus has always been of value. FYI this is not a paid presentation but a personal opinion.

I want to continue on from the last post talking about the marketers online whom I have found give value and appear honest and true to their word. I’m having a little laugh to myself as I think about this. ‘Oxymoron’ is the word that comes to mind. For those who are not familiar with the term the word oxymoron is a rhetorical device in which two seemingly contradictory words are used together for effect. My point is do these people exist? I certainly hope so.

I have already mentioned Andre Chaperon’s blog and his work with Brent Hall. These are the guys you will only hear from when they have something worth looking at.(By the way, the 100 copies of their latest product Presell Robot sold out in no time this morning.) Anyway, I was trying to put into words what it is about some marketers whom you come across online whom you feel you can trust and why and I believe that it is the ethical nature of their focus.

Amir Darwish is another young man with a quality about him. As I mentioned in a previous post, he is responsible for the tool Xtreme Conversions which is a great tool used to determine which keywords produced those affiliate sales. Here is a link to a YouTube video which gives an Overview of Xtreme Conversions.

Amir also put together a case study on ppc. These videos were also posted on YouTube. Click on the links below to check them out.

After posting these videos, he posted the keywords he used in Google as well as the keywords and sites that generated sales for him in the Xtreme Conversions forum. By his own admission the case study was thrown together very quickly and it was rather sloppy but it was an education and the basis for further tweaking. He showed the first step to testing a market. From there he explains the need to build a number of landing pages for the different keyword groups and collect email addresses. An Opt In list is the biggest asset you can have in this business. Instead of selling to your visitors once, you sell to them an infinite number of times as long as you can be honest with them and give them value.

When Amir first began Internt Marketing back in 2006 he believes he was fortunate enough to have found Wealthy Affilate . Apparently he is one of their success stories together with many others who owe their success in IM to Wealthy Affiliate. Wealthy Affiliate attracts serious heard working individuals and if you are just starting out you should seriously consider checking them out. The price of membership is $39 per month but for that you’ll receive much more than any eBook you could buy.

In June last year Amir put together four videos on Clickbank Demystified and posted them on YouTube. There are people out there that are new to affilate marketing and still don’t know how to use Clickbank properly. These videos show you how to use Ckickbank and how to check that your affilate links and tacking is working properly. Click on the links below to check them out.

It is the little gestures that some marketers make to those in their list through bonuses that you do not often hear about and makes a difference. You may have remembered the launch of a product that Jeff Wellman brought out last year called Layoff Your Boss. Amir bought the resale rights to the package and gave it away as a bonus to his customers. The package is a good overview for beginners and it has good interviews with some very successful marketers such as Harris Fellman, Keith Wellman, Simon Leung, Frank Sousa and Heather Vale. It’s the little things that you do…..

These posts are pretty much a continuation of the time line of my experience with Internet Marketing up until now. There is a lot more to come. I’m yet to talk about anther partnership I stumbled across in my travels. The names of these guys are Edward Charkow and Eric Gehler from Website Monthly. Thank God for the good guys.

“Most people I know think that I’m crazy”. It sounds like a good title for a song. That too… but most people I know would like to earn extra money. The burning question is how?

I have been struggling for a while with ideas for this blog. I registered the domain name 2ezym8.com a couple of years ago because I liked the name. I saw an Australian movie “Gettin’Square” about 5 years ago and one of the lines in the movie was ‘too easy mate‘..so very typical Australian describing someone being able to get a job done without a fuss. I wanted to get into internet or affiliate marketing as a way of earning extra money and thought to myself ‘too easy mate’. yeah right!!!

I have read of so many people in a similar situation to mine. Most of us seem to follow a similar path. We begin by buying an eBook. In my case it was Adwords Miracle and Affiliate Project X. There was a lot of information to absorb for someone new to the game. It was exciting and frightening at the same time. I realised that if I didn’t get this formula right that I could lose money I didn’t have. This was followed by Day Job Killer and more information!!

There were people out there promoting all different types of income producing schemes…. or should I say ’scams’ in some cases. To put it bluntly, the gurus out there confused the hell out of me. Where do you start? Will I try a lttle bit of this, a little bit of that. I spent hours and hours chasing my tail. I feel as if I still waste a lot time chasing my tail. Let’s move on.

The first membership site I ever joined was David Moore’s Super Apprentice. With this membership, Dave gives you a number of subjects every month and you are required to produce or create about 20 to 30 articles on this topic and submit them to the turnkey software, follow the step-by-step strategies and build a virtual empire of websites that work for you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

All I had to do was organise a domain name and the web hosting and then come up with 20 to 30 articles on a subject I knew absolutely nothing about. I registered the domain name through 1&1 Internet because at the time they were only about $USD 6 a year and the cheapest I could find. I organised the web hosting through Hostgator costing about $USD 9.95 per month. I’m sure that they have better deals nowadays.

Super Apprentice was a great experience. The management and the others in the forum were very helpful. They recommended that you produce 5 sites a month and after five months you would be earning $USD 1000 per month and this came with a money back guarantee. Naturally there were conditions that the ‘apprentice’ followed the program.

The only thing was that I couldn’t justify the $USD 100 a month I was paying because I just couldn’t keep up. I was never going to be able to keep up with the program unless I could come up with another $USD 900 a month to have the articles written for me. When I started writing articles for the first web site I put together on Interior Design, I was concerned that the articles I wrote had to be perfect. In the process, I end up spending too much time on them. I’d worry more about what to write and how to write the articles than actually writing them. While others were punching out five or six or even more articles a day. I was struggling to write one article.

For the second topic on Buildings For Sale, I used their article writing service. For about $150 they organised the 20 articles I requested using the keyword tool that came with the membership. Unfortunatley I wasn’t happy with the quality of the articles and ended up rewriting a lot of them myself. I keep telling myself that they do not have to be perfect. Same with this post ‘It doesn’t have to be perfect.’

Unfortunately I didn’t last the five months but I highly recommend them. With the membership you get free consultations, free upgrades, free evaluations on the work you produce, software goodies and high page rank text links.

I have come across some guys out there in cyberspace who I trust and I do value their opinion. In the real world, I allowed myself to be scammed big time by a Greek bastard I thought I could trust. Understandably, my confidence in my ability to pick out the trustworthy ones is at an all time low. You live and learn.

Anyway, I stumbled across Andre Chaperon after reading one of Chris McNeeny eBooks Affiliate Project X . He put together a Clickbank case study during the Christmas of 2006 which I found very interesting. If you didn’t read it then you really missed out. It was described as quite simply the best single source of information on the subject (including paid eBooks) and it was free.

He recommended the Multiplier Method from his friend Brent Hall which I purchased. In the preamble he emphasises that the material is not about adsense and not for newbies. Brent continued to send me material via email that was a bit hard for me to use as a relative newbie but brilliant stuff.

Another internet marketer who Andre recommended was Amir Darwish. He is responsible for the tool Xtreme Conversions which is a great tool used to determine which keywords produced those affiliate sales. I want to spend more time time telling you about the great support this guy gives to the subscribers to his lists. I’ll expand on this more in my next post.

Andre has now set up another site called Marketing Bully. Here he sets out a step-by-step blueprint for creating multiple mini-income streams. He and Brent are also promoting a new product PresellRobot. This product has been in the pipeline for quite a while and will change the way in which you promote products by helping to craft presell pages. Should be interesting to say the least. If you follow this link through Lucrative Affiliate Marketing, you can see what is on offer and sign up for an email notification when the product is launched if you are interested.
