Underground Traffic Blueprints review Part 2

Part 2 of the Review, and the Course:

The 8 Million Visitor Section is just as awesome as the first section because 8 million visitors is really the potential (or more) if you keep following the blueprints.

Unfortunately, this second section entails a little more patience than the first section, but once implemented, this blueprint teaches you everything you need to build your own traffic-driving “Hard Internet Asset” that will keep growing in real value while sending more targeted traffic to your offers every day.

This second section of Phase 1 is another “whole and complete blueprint”, this time, for setting up and filling a website that will dominate any niche you put it on. (I can’t reveal the type of site here as it wouldn’t really be fair to the guys and their customers, but trust me, this is something you will want to know more about.)

So, instead of chasing traffic around the Internet like a hungry dog, this asset will draw traffic to you, while paying dividends with every offer, and increasing its own “cashing out” value every day.

You could easily earn $200-$300 a month off this blueprint and cash out for $30,000 or more in a year if you wanted to get out of the internet business, but with the blueprints making it so easy and so fun, who would ever want to??

The next section of Phase 1 of Underground Traffic Blueprints takes a fresh look at the oldest profession on the web? “Article marketing”. This “underground look” uncovers a “different” world, that of the “extreme article market”.

The extreme article market is not what it looks like on the surface and once you get your underground, “back-stage” pass, you’ll understand why you haven’t been making the profits the gurus have been promising, and how you can win at this game.

This is a complete article marketing espionage kit, with secret codes for peeking under the hoods of article directory sites. You can then cut the strings of the puppet masters and put your articles in the money spot instead of the fluff that’s been appearing. Jeremy and Simon even expose the “grey hat strategies” you are up against so you can take appropriate action to beat them at their own game.

Finally, in this section they show you how to leverage content so that you can get high quality articles in next to no time.

If all this sounds like something you can really use to grow your business, then order Underground Traffic Blueprints now. Buy now

If you are still not sure it is right for you, look out for the next part of my in-depth review.

Investing In Yourself Always Pays Off

Karyn Martin was
cautious about launching her freelance career online, but she soon
got results:

"I remember the days when I dreamed of being a freelancer," she says.
"The word seemed magical to me somehow. Romantic, almost. Now, after
having actually been a freelancer for a while, the scales have been
lifted from my eyes and I have seen the light. You pay for being able
to manipulate your time. You pay by working more, working harder, and
– hopefully – working smarter. But what you get in return is
priceless. Now I can call the shots about when I work, for whom I
work, and how much I make."

One day, Karyn decided she was no longer willing to commute in
smog-laden traffic to sit in a cubicle for eight hours, come home,
eat, sleep, wake up, and then do it all over again. Going through the
same routine, day after day, week after week , only to wake up one day
old and tired – wondering how life might have been if she’d had the
guts to go it alone.

So she decided to become a freelancer – but how would she find work? She
had spent endless hours surfing the ‘net, signing up with one
freelance site after another. Yet there was an incredible amount of
competition. She never seemed to win any bids, and was adamant about
not lowering her hourly rate. 

"Then I discovered Go Freelance," she says. "I had heard
"don’t pay to work!" repeatedly, and I was too poor to risk getting
scammed, but I took a chance one day when I was flush and sent twenty
bucks to gain access to the Go Freelance Professional
Edition.

"Since then, I’ve edited a sales letter, a follow-up letter, an
11-page Web site, and a brochure. I’m ‘on call’ to do pinch-hit
proofreading for a medical newsletter editor in Florida while he’s on
vacation, sick, etc. And I’ve landed a gig editing a new Canadian
magazine coming out this fall. All this from taking a $20 chance on
Go Freelance."

Of course, it helped to send prospects a few previous work samples
she’d had the presence of mind to scan and save on disk. Also, since
she has been ‘in the business’ for more than five years, she has a
fairly good résumé with some experience to back up the claims, along
with a strong list of references.

"For every one of you out there feeling a little discouraged, and
especially for those of you on the verge of throwing in the towel, I’m
here to tell you this. There may not be a Santa Claus, but there is a
place to find work without paying some ridiculous "transaction fee" or
never knowing whether or not the projects are ‘fresh’ – and even the
name is easy to remember – Go Freelance."

Tips for Tweeting As Part of Your Daily Business Routine 1

Tips for Tweeting As Part of Your Daily Business Routine 1
One of the most highly touted social networking sites on the Internet right now is Twitter. One of the reasons it’s so highly touted is that Tweeting can become a new part of your daily business routine quickly and easily.

The following ideas will help you to incorporate this service into the marketing efforts of your business on a daily basis.

Networking for your business
Twitter is a great tool for chatting amongst friends and fellow online business owners.

So how do you get started on Twitter?

First, you must sign up for your own Twitter account or page. The service is free to use and takes just a few minutes to get going. Simply go to http://www.twitter.com/
and sign up.

When you set up your account don’t forget to fill in your website’s URL and a tid-bit about yourself or your business in the profile. Make sure this is well-written marketing copy but without being too spammy.  Make sure it is free of typos-remember, you are putting yourself out there in a public, social networking forum and first impressions do count.

5 Reasons Twitter is a Powerful Marketing Tool 5

5 Reasons Twitter is a Powerful Marketing Tool 5

5. Tease Your Readers
You can also use Twitter to tease people a little bit, in a fun way, of course!  You are enticing them to learn more about your products, services, special deals and so on.

When you use Twitter, you have to keep your messages short, and in many ways, a little mysterious.  Pique their interest, joke around, and you’ll find that you gain a lot more followers and hopefully website traffic and customers as a result. Think tasteful Superbowl ads! Twitter as entertainment can be fun and educational.

One word of caution regarding Twitter:

Yes, Twitter can be a great marketing too. But be warned, just as with any other social networking site, Twitter can quickly become addictive if you let it.

Don’t go overboard and get so involved in all your tweeting that you lose too much time away from your intended purpose, that of building and marketing your business. Remember also that it is just one of many tools in your Web 2.0 arsenal which you will also need to devote time to in order to spread your marketing message.

That being said, used wisely Twitter can be a great and powerful marketing tool to help create online business success.

Thinking About Refinancing?

Are you thinking about refinancing?

Is it even possible in the current economic climate?

The answer is, maybe, and timing can be everything.

If you have an excellent credit history and feel secure enough to be able to make the monthly payments, but want to free up equity for better liquidity, this might be the time to do it.

Generally speaking, it may be a good time to consider refinancing your home when you can obtain an interest rate that is at least 2% lower than your current mortgage interest rate.

However, there are other considerations that come into play.  With the current economic recession brought about by the sub-prime mortgage crisis, home values have declined.

If you decide to refinance based upon the immediate need to pay off high interest rate loans or credit cards, or if you plan on making improvements to your home to increase its value, it may be necessary to wait until the home values increase before taking this step.

You may be better off bootstraping now, in order to avoid a whole lot of pain later on.  Better to pay down those credit cards in a disciplined way, than tap into the equity in your home which you’ve worked so hard to build.

You will also have to take into consideration the cost of refinancing a mortgage.  Several questions need to be answered, such as:

How much will I save if I refinance now?

Can I afford to pay the fees associated with refinancing such as PMI (prepaid mortgage insurance), inspections, title search, and points, without having to add these to the initial refinance cost?

Research will be required to determine if it is feasible to refinance your home.  This may include visiting your lender and discussing the pros and cons of refinancing at this time.

You may also wish to compare the difference between refinancing and the cost of your current mortgage to determine if refinancing will yield a significant saving.

There are many online mortgage calculators that can help you in this endeavor, so make sure you do your research in order to look before you leap.

Another consideration is the length of time you will remain in your home.  Re-fi for the whole of the house’s equity pretty much wipes you all you’ve put into it. If you are not careful, you could end up in worse shape than before, and without a safety net any longer.

Therefore, whether you revisit your current lender or research other mortgage lenders, having accurate accounting of your monthly mortgage versus how much it would cost to refinance (including the aforementioned fees) and whether or not there is an actual savings will be the deciding factor.

Most experts advise that if, within seven years, the cost of refinancing does not yield a substantial savings to the homeowner specifically as relates to paying off all the fees incurred during the process, it is not worth the time or the money to refinance.

Make sure you look at your financial situation realistically. Have a budget, and stick to it. If you are just trying to re-fi in order to pay off credit card debt, don’t.  The sacrifices you will make now will be worth it in the long run, without adding all sorts of fees and paperwork into the mix.

Starting Up Your Effective New Marketing Campaign 2

Starting Up Your Effective New Marketing Campaign

Your first step, is to make sure you have created a realistic business plan, or read through the materials you have been given by the merchant/s you have become affiliated with.

Your next step is to think about all of the products you think you can sell effectively. Choose the ones you have the most personal experience of, or interest in.

If you are selling your own products, make sure you have brainstormed all your keywords, features and benefits that would draw people to your products. What problems do they have, what solutions do you offer.

If you are dealing with affiliates, start out small. Find out what the top 5 products are. See if they offer lists of keywords.  Are there other sales materials, like sales letters, urls, even free websites of your own, that you can take advantage of?

Your next step will be to assemble your marketing materials. Naturally, this will take longer if you are writing your own for your own company.

If you are working as an affiliate, however, don’t just take it for granted that you can skip this step. Their site may or may not be highly converting. In addition, there is the sizzle we talked about in the first section, which many online marketers are now starting to refer to as the ‘pre-sell’.

In other words, you are writing effective sales copy on your site long before they ever get through to the merchant to buy.  We will talk more about this later, but for the moment, it brings us nicely to our next section–have you created a website yet for your new company?
