<p>Last week I visited Google Australia. They are getting pretty keen to share with marketing agencies how best to sell Adwords. For your benefit I made some notes since you may either be selling to businesses, considering selling to businesses or perhaps you are a business.</p>
<p>Maybe you just want to know how Google &#8216;think&#8217; and operate. The meeting reminded me how new this industry is and how far it is going to go. We covered Adwords, Marketing, People, Innovation and Design.</p>
<p><a  href="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1934" title="google" src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/google-300x126.png" alt="" width="300" height="126" /></a></p>
<div><strong>In Australia only 50 % of small business are online</strong></div>
<div><strong><br />
</strong></div>
<div>Wow. That means as the owner of a <a  href="http://www.superfastwebsites.com" rel="nofollow" title="custom wordpress sites" target="_blank">web development business</a>, <a  href="http://www.seopartner.com" rel="nofollow" title="search engine optimization" target="_blank">SEO business</a> and <a  href="http://www.superfastresults.com" rel="nofollow" title="Internet Marketing Forum" target="_blank">Internet marketing coaching</a> community things are on the way up. Business owners are more aware that online business is the way to grow faster (or get left behind). Google Australia have 550 staff .  Half of them are engineers, the other half are marketing based. In Australia we are going to receive  a faster internet speed soon. (It is quite slow compared to the USA).</div>
<div><a  href="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1936" title="james-schramko-google" src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/james-schramko-google.png" alt="" width="352" height="374" /></a></div>
<div><strong><br />
PPC Techniques Update</strong></div>
<div><strong><br />
</strong></div>
<div>We had an &#8220;Advanced&#8221; PPC breakout session with Kate Conroy.  First we got an  update on Adwords reporting. Here were her tips:</div>
<div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Reporting can be customized so be sure to select the columns you want and not too many. (Avoid column bloat, keep it lean).</li>
<li>Focus on conversions because they make you money and are also an indicator of high quality (the all important relevance).</li>
<li>The new &#8216;top versus side report&#8217; shows a client where where ads appear on the page.</li>
<li>Screen for quality.  Filter quality score by &#8216;low but getting impressions&#8217; to see where you can tune the campaign.</li>
</ul>
<p><a  href="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1935" title="adwords-display" src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/adwords-display.png" alt="" width="350" height="262" /></a></p>
</div>
</div>
<div><strong>How to boost your quality score</strong></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Make sure your pages are very relevant to the search phrase and topic. If they are weak bolster landing page.</li>
<li>Make ad groups better (by that she means smaller).</li>
<li>Segment by device (Mobile is hot the last 6-8 months) &#8216;Mobile only&#8217; can significantly increase conversions.</li>
<li>See &#8216;search terms&#8217; report and create new content based on the new long tail phrases.</li>
<li>Use a &#8216;geo report&#8217; filtering impressions by minimum.</li>
<li>&#8216;Best day of the week&#8217; report helps you schedule ads and adjust bids for your sweet spot.</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div><strong>Focus on Extensions to really optimize the campaign</strong></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Location shows in seo results so be sure to include it for local businesses</li>
<li>Shopping extensions are HOT. (There exists a huge Merchant feed optimization opportunity for providers). Make sure pictures are big enough. <em>Just increasing image size will show you higher more often</em>!</li>
<li><em>Get serious about shopping feed management</em></li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Checklist for Adwords campaign tuning</strong></p>
</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li><em>CPC x quality score = rank score </em></li>
<li>Make sure your Ad groups are well structured</li>
<li>Two to four keyword combos work bets for buyer intent and relevancy</li>
<li>Use the extensive free training available from Google</li>
<li>Use $75 vouchers from google to get started (I have some if you need them)</li>
</ul>
<p><a  href="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1937" title="google-australia" src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/google-australia.png" alt="" width="491" height="268" /></a></p>
</div>
<div><strong>How to sell adwords to businesses</strong></div>
<div><strong><br />
</strong></div>
<div>When you are talking to small businesses remember <em>you</em> have the relationship with them  (not Google).  Here is a checklist for you to move the customer through the phases (offered by the business development expert):</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Comprehend &#8211; helping the business owner become aware of the possibilites.</li>
<li>Connect &#8211; building relationship rapport so that a trusted conversation is possible.</li>
<li>Educate &#8211; putting forward factual information to help bridge the gap.</li>
<li>Ask questions &#8211; fully understand and resolve all areas of doubt or uncertainty.</li>
<li>Pitch &#8211; suggest the solution.</li>
<li>Close &#8211; make an agreement.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Here are some Google opportunity sizing tools that really help you gather facts and data to help your pitch:</strong></p>
</div>
<div><a  href="http://www.google.com/insights/search/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Insights</a> &#8211; &#8216;you can compare search volume patterns across specific regions, categories, time frames and properties&#8217;</div>
<div><a  href="https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Keyword tool</a> &#8211; there are  a number of options here.</div>
<div><a  href="https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1931" title="adwords" src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/adwords.png" alt="" width="402" height="249" /></a></div>
<div><strong><br />
Compelling reasons why Adwords is the perfect story for business owners..</strong></div>
<div><strong><br />
</strong></div>
<div>PPC marketing is easily Digestible for business owners because it has many elements they want.</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Urgency &#8211; campaigns can be set up very quickly</li>
<li>Solve problems &#8211; people are already searching for solutions online</li>
<li>Reporting gives you measurability. No wastage.</li>
<li>Demonstrate success with conversion goals and excellent metrics</li>
<li>Proof &#8211; profit can be traced directly to the source</li>
<li>Presence ( branding ) can be increased because it adds to other mediums</li>
<li>Leverages website investments by increasing traffic</li>
<li>Can be adapted to whatever the current business strategy is</li>
<li>Get an advantage on competitors who do not use paid traffic</li>
<li>Fastest potential for scalable business growth</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div><strong>Frame these value combinations into a perfect story</strong></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Pay only for clicks you use.</li>
<li>Easy way to measure success.</li>
<li>Scope change instantly.</li>
<li>Flex your budget as required.</li>
<li>People do not remember URL&#8217;s. They search within 3 days of hearing advertising</li>
<li>Call tracking per campaign leverages PPC more</li>
<li>92% of Australians are Internet users (more reach)</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div><strong>Paid and organic gives you larger share</strong></div>
<div><strong><br />
</strong></div>
<div>1+1 = 3 when it comes to having seo and ppc results for the same phrase. Google claim it increases sales. This has been supported in a  recent article on <a  href="http://searchengineland.com/google-study-ppc-ads-do-not-cannibalize-your-organic-traffic-86972" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Search Engine Land</a>.</div>
<div><strong>Display advertising tips:</strong></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Ads can be run in multiple media formats</li>
<li>Google offers virtual CPA</li>
<li>Partners spread ads further</li>
<li>Use the <a  href="http://www.google.com/adplanner/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Adplanner</a> for target audience selection</li>
<li>Use ad builder templates for banners</li>
<li>300 size banner is very popular</li>
<li>728 size banners are the most displayed</li>
<li>Choose sites to advertise on</li>
<li>CPC by industry varies but is standardized - Finance and travel are the most mature industry categories for paid advertising</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div><strong>Google discussion on Marketing</strong></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>50-100 new products are launched each week by Google</li>
<li>Innovation is about being open</li>
<li>Example: Openness about sharing open source like Chrome and Android</li>
<li>Sharing source code floats all boats in the industry</li>
<li>Change is the most important element</li>
<li>User decides how to best use technology in the end</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div>For new products the &#8220;release and iterate&#8221; method is better than the big unveil. After that the goal is to keep improving. The user becomes part of the culture with new technology. Example: Gmail is still beta after 3 years.</div>
<div><strong>People hiring Is the most important thing</strong></div>
<div><strong><br />
</strong></div>
<div>In Google a manager is hiring about 40% of the time. They look for diversity and passion  outside work. In particular they look for generalists since generalists will apply skill to any area.</div>
<div>The famous 20% employee free time is designed to change the world technology. Other success factors for the Google employee approach are:</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Serendipity</li>
<li>Flat hierarchy</li>
<li>Small teams</li>
<li>Pragmatic long term thinking</li>
<li>Ideas + technology</li>
<li>Befriend a geek</li>
<li>Audacious place big bets</li>
<li>Think big</li>
<li>Fail fast</li>
<li><em>It is Easier to attract people to big challenges</em></li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Things the team have developed that they are proud of:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Gmail had 250 times more storage than competitor at launch.</li>
<li>Adwords was the worlds first real time PPC auction.</li>
<li>News by topic not source.</li>
<li>(Even though Buzz failed and Wave failed they pushed html5 browsers forward).</li>
<li>Google docs</li>
</ul>
<p><a  href="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1938" title="yoyo" src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/yoyo.png" alt="" width="348" height="310" /></a></p>
</div>
<div><strong>It pays to Question Everything!<br />
</strong></div>
<div>In Australia Google noticed a huge disparity between use of the web between consumers v business. Less than half of businesses have a website yet most of us use the internet.</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>15 million consumers use the internet every month</li>
<li>9 million people in Australia are on Facebook</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div><strong>Why do business owners NOT have a website?</strong></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>5o percent thought it is not relevant.</li>
<li>27 percent lack the time budget or knowledge.  Perception: cost, complex, time suck.</li>
<li><em>12 percent never considered it.</em></li>
<li><em>Note: </em>Almost all use Internet personally.</li>
<li>25 percent of businesses who have a website wanted to upgrade or revamp the website they already have</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div><strong>Google talks user experience (UX)</strong></div>
<div><strong><br />
</strong></div>
<div>Here are the Design questions that help designers create the platforms we see coming from Google and improve the &#8216;man machine interface&#8217;:</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Follow the user and everything else will follow</li>
<li>Don&#8217;t design with our own set of bias</li>
<li>Think clearly about who is receiving our message</li>
<li>Design for a primary persona (Even triplets are very different)</li>
<li>How do people change over time</li>
<li>Be aware of experience around you</li>
<li>Account for triggers and influences</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div><strong>Affinity diagramming</strong></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>What is the business goal?, what does the user want?, what do you want?</li>
<li>First and foremost provide something the user needs and user wants.</li>
<li>We are in the world of perpetual beta.</li>
<li>Release by &#8216;Dogfooding&#8217; to the 28000 Google employees.</li>
<li>Survey users. Who are they? What do they want to do?</li>
<li>Shadow people.</li>
<li>Conduct Percent experiments.</li>
<li>Keep things &#8216;Dustbuster binary simple&#8217; ie: one button!</li>
</ul>
<p><a  href="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1939" title="australia-google" src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/australia-google.png" alt="" width="377" height="202" /></a></p>
</div>
<div><strong>Design drives outcomes</strong></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Question everything</li>
<li>Design with someone in mind</li>
<li>Test test test</li>
</ul>
<p>On a closing note, I queried the policy of &#8216;openness&#8217; v the lack of phone support and they advised that Phone support will be coming on board during business hours&#8230;</p>
<p><em>Oh yeah &#8211; they were also surprisingly quiet about Google +</em></p>

<p><strong>Internet Marketing for Small Business </strong></p>
<p>The average Internet Marketer can take these skills to local business. Doing it profitably is more difficult than some of the &#8216;gurus&#8217; preach. Make no mistake it will come with some growth challenges. Moving from sole operator to a small business has certain steps. In this podcast we get some real insights into the growth steps small business owners face.</p>
<p><strong>Clint offers tips about:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Avoiding the &#8216;one legged horse&#8217; business model and what NOT to do!</li>
<li>Building a super team to write, post and syndicate content plus deal with clients</li>
<li>Team management software</li>

<ul>
<li>Have clear goals</li>
<li>Adjust your goals when your business grows</li>
<li>Look after yourself</li>
<li>Recognize your capacity constraints</li>

<p>In this podcast I talk to my friend Jeff Siegel a multi million dollar Clickbank internet marketing expert (and a heck of a nice guy!). As a top level marketer and partner in &#8220;<a  href="http://lnx2.co/MX" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The diet solution program</a>&#8221; selling over 1000 copies of health related information products per day you will enjoy the key points on offer here&#8230;.</p>
<p><strong>Opportunity Next door</strong></p>
<p>Jeff  lived next door to Isabel (now his co-partner) who attended high level training conducted by <a href="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/how-to/the-skinny-on-contest-marketing/"title="Craig Ballantyne"  target="_blank">Craig Ballantyne</a>. This led to Isabel meeting Vince Delmonte and Mike Geary who are also fitness industry superstars. Knowing this was an advantage not to be ignored Isabel asked Jeff for help putting up a website.  (This is proof that a Mastermind level coaching can pay huge dividends).</p>
<p><strong>Do Sales Videos Work?</strong></p>
<p>Jeff really pushed the envelope testing out Video Sales Pages. Soon a few hundred sales day turned into a few thousand sales a day. Start with an introduction, then establish credibility and follow up with ten minutes of solid content.</p>
<p><strong>How Super Affiliates Conquer The Market With 500 Sales Per day&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>They use paid advertising. If you are stuck on the &#8216;free&#8217; treadmill then it is going to be a slow ride at 1% conversions&#8230;  Jeff recommends product owners prove conversions yourself first. JV&#8217;s will send spurts of warm traffic, in fact some affiliates can do 500 sales themselves in a single day. TIP: January is the big month for diet solutions!</p>
<p><strong>How important is the product itself?</strong></p>
<p>You need to continually update the product but it is super important to have quality from the start. Jeff is all about integrity.  Make sure you have related up-sells that accelerate the results, save time or effort. Perhaps build a community to encourage additional product consumption. Increase customer service with a call centre. Jeff will have operators verify orders and answer questions whilst offering additional deals.</p>
<p><strong>Does Size Matter?</strong></p>
<p>Currently Jeff has a small company size &#8211; 10 people on staff with outsourced remote team members. The structure is 2 senior partners, 2 junior partners.</p>
<p><strong>On Striking JV Deals&#8230;.</strong></p>
<p>With ClickBank you will need to get JV partners on board. How do small players approach big players for deals? TIP: dont bring up business first! Be sure to attend conferences. Super affiliates big in marketing stuff always have things going on so super affiliates can come and go.</p>
<p><strong>Focus your energy on helping affiliates make money</strong></p>
<p>It takes 75% of your effort to stay up to date and tread water. Jeff has a warning about crazy affiliates who can get you banned from Google. Keep a close eye on them and avoid affiliates who run &#8216;scam&#8217; angle campaigns.</p>
<p><a  href="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1850" title="google-website-optimizer" src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/google-website-optimizer.png" alt="" width="469" height="181" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Conversion Suggestions</strong></p>
<p>It is essential to conduct split testing and tracking. Jeff often creates special pages for affiliates who make a lot of sales and have a good history. These special pages will have headlines to match ads for continuity. Lead people all the way from start to finish &#8211; you must not slack off at the finish. Everything is counter intuitive so persistance and risk are important.</p>
<p><strong>What tools can be used for testing?</strong></p>
<p>Jeff recommends Googles <a  href="http://www.google.com/adwords/conversionoptimizer/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Conversion Optimizer</a> . TIP: always go with simple. Get simple working first then go advanced. Start with A:B split testing before trying heat maps.</p>
<p><strong>How do you attract affiliates?</strong></p>
<p>Hire an affiliate manager to recruit super affiliates. The Diet Solution Program is ClickBank’s top selling program in the Health &amp; Fitness space. Jeff knows what he is talking about! Affiliate Site: <a  href="http://www.thedietsolutionprogram.com/affiliates" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">www.thedietsolutionprogram.com/affiliates</a></p>
<p><strong>Success Tip From Jeff</strong></p>

<p>Over the last three months I have been collating and recording a serious training product about getting targeted website traffic called &#8220;<a  href="http://www.trafficgrab.com" rel="nofollow" title="Traffic Grab for Targeted Traffic">TrafficGrab</a>&#8220;. I went through the last five years worth of traffic strategies I have tested. Next I mapped out and sytstemized the process my own team use. What was left was the trafficGrab system. <em>Just the information you need and nothing else.</em></p>
<p><a  href="http://www.trafficgrab.com" rel="nofollow"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1597" title="trafficgrab-system" src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/trafficgrab-system-300x181.png" alt="" width="300" height="181" /></a></p>
<p><strong> The first training modules are <em>free</em> and they cover:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>How to research the right buying phrases</li>
<li>The best content to prepare to attract buyers</li>
<li>What site structure to use to harness conversions</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>The other (paid) modules cover:</strong></p>

<li>Traffic &#8211; and LOTS of it</li>

<li>Leverage &#8211; make event more profit!</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>What you can expect</strong></p>
<p>There are 24 traffic Steps, a huge Mindmap and at least 9 hours of high quailty video in this full course. (Some people think I am a little crazy making all of this available for just a one time investment of only <strong>$79.95</strong>).</p>

		</div>
<p>Internet marketing Designer James Dyson just launched <a  href="http://www.buywithbonus.com/conversions/optimizepress-bonus-james-dyson-review/" rel="nofollow" title="OptimizePress" target="_blank">OptimizePress</a> his own WordPress based product launch  / sales conversions software.<em> I&#8217;m using it</em> for my product launches and sales letter sites from now on.</p>
<p><strong>Here&#8217;s why OptimizePress is so sweet</strong></p>
<p>OptimizePress makes it super simple to create squeeze pages, sales letters, video pages, launch pages, bonus pages &#8211; pretty much any kind of offer page you&#8217;d want to create, you can create it with Optimizepress. It is easy to use and made for Internet Marketers. The platform used is WordPress so it ranks like crazy too.</p>
<p><strong>James Dyson tested conversions on Millions of visits</strong></p>
<p>Not only do the pages you can create with OptimizePress look AMAZING, then are also based on James&#8217;s proven  conversion testing results, so they are designed to boost your optins and sales! James has worked with many high traffic sites (even mine) behind the scenes.</p>
<p><strong>But what about Kajabi I hear you ask?</strong></p>
<p>You might be wondering how OptimizePress compares to Kajabi.  Well there&#8217;s no doubt Kajabi is a cool &#8216;looking&#8217; platform and the hype abounds&#8230; It is a custom monthly fee based web application that is supposed to help you with launches and membership releases. (There are no cart or affiliate functionalities yet). Frankly Kajabi has no where near the same level of testing and integration I need from a solution.</p>
<p><strong>Why I&#8217;m not using Kajabi</strong></p>
<p>I will NOT be entrusting my front end sales data and content to someone else. Especially since that someone else appears to have far more focus on marketing than software service provision. I wonder what will happen when the next big launch comes along?&#8230;.. will the product be supported?   I like to have the control of my own content and sales sites. When you want to leave Kajabi will you LOSE EVERYTHING?. Also are you prepared to risk your data being potentially lost <strong>or mined</strong> in the meantime?</p>
<p>(Note: WordPress can be hosted in the cloud just like Kajabi if scaling is required). The very biggest product launches rely almost entirely on JV Partners and they pretty much ignore SEO because they close the door after a few weeks. Unless you are doing monster sized launches you probably don&#8217;t need anything more than OptimizePress on a standard WordPress blog.</p>
<p><strong>Setup recurring sales machines</strong></p>
<p>Most of my sites are evergreen and my talented outsource team can easily build and manage Optimizepress. Once you have access to the easy to use video squeeze pages and launch sequences you can make evergreen launch sites in multiple market segments. Perhaps save the monthly fee and put it towards a great <a  href="http://www.nanacaster.com/" rel="nofollow">cart</a> instead. Now you will have a sweet front end that is SEO friendly, has CMS, integrates with carts and list building software.</p>
<p><strong>Additional features</strong></p>
<p><a  href="http://www.buywithbonus.com/conversions/optimizepress-bonus-james-dyson-review/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">OptimizePress</a> also has a few unique features of it&#8217;s own, including the custom shortcodes system which allows you to build stunning sales letters in minutes by dropping in custom elements like sub headlines, testimonial boxes, order boxes, bullet blocks and more!</p>
<p><strong>Integrates with any cart</strong></p>
<p>OptimizePress is also flexible enough to work with any shopping cart and affiliate program you want (works great with <a  href="http://www.nanacaster.com" rel="nofollow">nanacast</a>), and also has support for almost any autoresponder you can think of! Teaming Optimize press with Nanacast gets you the affiliate program, membership episodes and sales cart.</p>
<p><strong>One Time Fee</strong></p>
<p>You&#8217;re also going to get a multi-site license, meaning you can use this on as many of your OWN sites as you wish, for a one-time fee. If you use it for clients you can buy multi-use licenses.</p>
<p><strong><a  href="http://www.optimizerpress.com" rel="nofollow" title="optimizepress theme James Dyson" target="_blank">&#8211;&gt;  Just look at how good the OptimizePress sales letter looks &#8211; this was created with the software too!</a></strong></p>

<p><a  href="http://www.completeguidetraffic.com" rel="nofollow"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1498" title="paul-smithson" src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/paul-smithson.png" alt="" width="117" height="151" /></a> Paul Smithson is the founder and CEO of intellimon (Creator of <a  href="http://www.xsitepr.com" rel="nofollow">XSitePro</a>). He created the website building software I used to get started online. Intellimon have moved more into the education side to help marketers get better at marketing.</p>
<p>Marketers need more than tools. (I have been teaching people this with <a  href="http://www.itsnotaboutthewebsite.com" rel="nofollow">It&#8217;s not about the website</a> ). There is a lot of information and people get overloaded. In order to locate the key areas of frustration Paul surveyed the market. We discuss the main findings here.</p>
<p><strong>Focus is essential</strong><br />
Paul Smithson says people tend to jump from one thing to another and they should FOCUS more on the things that matter. This makes perfect sense.</p>
<p><strong>Doing the right things</strong><br />
There is a real need for good solid well thought out training. The first course Intellimon published was the <a  href="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/affiliate/xsitepro-complete-guide-to-website-building-course-review-bonus/">Complete guide to building websites</a>. The next problem they tackled was the issue of Traffic.</p>
<p><strong>Traffic is essential for websites</strong><br />
When preparing their latest traffic product they researched the market extensively with a <em>4000 response survey</em>.  After analysis the results showed some very interesting trends.</p>
<p><strong>People are doing a LOT themselves</strong><br />
SEO, PPC, Advertising designs and other manual tasks are mostly being done by people in-house. Budgetary constraints are the main cause. Paul argues that doing these things first can give you the context needed to outsource effectively. There is a natural progression from DIY to outsourcing for most new marketers. Do it as fast as you can!</p>
<p><strong>Lack of Success</strong> <strong>breeds lack of success</strong><br />
<em>More</em> marketers are struggling than succeeding. Most people on the recent survey Paul conducted (almost half) make less than $10,000 per your from the online business. The low income means they cannot invest in the outsourcing to get the profits. The missing component of decent traffic is critical in breaking this cycle.</p>
<p><strong>Highly educated</strong> <strong>but not making money</strong><br />
Many people who are doing Internet Marketing are not really getting the results they could even though on average they are very smart.  Most are probably successful in &#8216;offline&#8217; business or a job but the skill of traffic eludes most. An education outside of Internet Marketing is no guarantee of success online. You need specific online training.</p>
<p><strong>Hardly anyone has an affiliate program</strong><br />
<em>Less than 15%</em> of people who completed the survey have an affiliate program in place. Affiliate marketing is like a commission only program that turbo charges most online businesses. I use <a  href="http://www.nanacaster.com" rel="nofollow">Nanacast</a> to manage my affiliate program and they send my sites tens of thousands of visits each month.</p>
<p><strong>Leveraged traffic strategies are very <em>rare</em></strong><br />
Less than 7% of marketers are using teleseminars or webinars. Considering how effective online events are (both live and automated) there is a huge jump in profitability available for most online businesses. Start using these as soon as you can to build lists.</p>
<p><strong>Mixed results for social media</strong><br />
A lot of people who use them have no clue whether these techniques are effective or not. Not all business are suited to social media however being able to manage the social media channels effectively can be a really big tipping point for others.</p>
<p><strong>Email traffic is more measurable </strong><br />
List marketing is one of the most effective and measurable marketing devices. You can track open rates, click rates, conversions and daily opt-ins. This should be a foundation to any online business because it is an asset that continues to work well. A solid responsive database is the surest way to generate profit when used correctly.</p>
<p><strong>Ideal Training solution</strong></p>
<p>Rather than just watching other marketers or trying things out yourself blind, you can now get straight to the point with the new training Paul Smithson and team have put together.</p>
<p><strong>The Complete Guide To Traffic</strong><br />
The way this product is put together makes sense for most marketers. For new marketers it is the fastest and easiest way to cruise through everything you SHOULD know about internet marketing traffic. It takes you from ZERO knowledge to well versed in a structured and up-to-date modular format.</p>

		<itunes:summary>Paul Smithson is the founder and CEO of intellimon (Creator of XSitePro). He created the website building software I used to get started online. Intellimon have moved more into the education side to help marketers get better at marketing.

Marketers need more than tools. (I have been teaching people this with It&#039;s not about the website ). There is a lot of information and people get overloaded. In order to locate the key areas of frustration Paul surveyed the market. We discuss the main findings here.

Focus is essential
Paul Smithson says people tend to jump from one thing to another and they should FOCUS more on the things that matter. This makes perfect sense.

Doing the right things
There is a real need for good solid well thought out training. The first course Intellimon published was the Complete guide to building websites. The next problem they tackled was the issue of Traffic.

Traffic is essential for websites
When preparing their latest traffic product they researched the market extensively with a 4000 response survey.Â  After analysis the results showed some very interesting trends.

People are doing a LOT themselves
SEO, PPC, Advertising designs and other manual tasks are mostly being done by people in-house. Budgetary constraints are the main cause. Paul argues that doing these things first can give you the context needed to outsource effectively. There is a natural progression from DIY to outsourcing for most new marketers. Do it as fast as you can!

Lack of Success breeds lack of success
More marketers are struggling than succeeding. Most people on the recent survey Paul conducted (almost half) make less than $10,000 per your from the online business. The low income means they cannot invest in the outsourcing to get the profits. The missing component of decent traffic is critical in breaking this cycle.

Highly educated but not making money
Many people who are doing Internet Marketing are not really getting the results they could even though on average they are very smart.Â  Most are probably successful in &#039;offline&#039; business or a job but the skill of traffic eludes most. An education outside of Internet Marketing is no guarantee of success online. You need specific online training.

Hardly anyone has an affiliate program
Less than 15% of people who completed the survey have an affiliate program in place. Affiliate marketing is like a commission only program that turbo charges most online businesses. I use Nanacast to manage my affiliate program and they send my sites tens of thousands of visits each month.

Leveraged traffic strategies are very rare
Less than 7% of marketers are using teleseminars or webinars. Considering how effective online events are (both live and automated) there is a huge jump in profitability available for most online businesses. Start using these as soon as you can to build lists.

Mixed results for social media
A lot of people who use them have no clue whether these techniques are effective or not. Not all business are suited to social media however being able to manage the social media channels effectively can be a really big tipping point for others.

Email traffic is more measurable 
List marketing is one of the most effective and measurable marketing devices. You can track open rates, click rates, conversions and daily opt-ins. This should be a foundation to any online business because it is an asset that continues to work well. A solid responsive database is the surest way to generate profit when used correctly.

Ideal Training solution

Rather than just watching other marketers or trying things out yourself blind, you can now get straight to the point with the new training Paul Smithson and team have put together.

The Complete Guide To Traffic
The way this product is put together makes sense for most marketers. For new marketers it is the fastest and easiest way to cruise through everything you SHOULD know about internet marketing traffic.</itunes:summary>

<p>If you are using video to market your services or products and want to have visitors &#8211; and potential customers &#8211; show up at your site then there is one heavy weight player that you need to be aware of &#8211; Google.</p>
<p>Google has made it abundantly clear that video is important. They have even done us the favor of spelling out what you need to do to help Google find your video content so they can index and rank your video content in their search engine results.</p>
<p>Guess what? Google likes to see information about your video in a certain format. And I have to admit, it is not altogether pretty.</p>
<h3>Google Video Sitemaps</h3>
<p>There is a certain type of file, an xml file, that you can submit to Google that includes information about your videos.</p>
<p>This file provides details like a title, a description, the page the video is on, the location of the video content (this is different then the page the video is on), and a thumbnail of the video. Optionally, you can provide information regarding the video length, if and when the video expires, how many views the video has seen, when you published the video, descriptive tags, a category, is it family friendly or not, and any restrictions on where the video can be viewed.</p>
<p>Would you like to see what the file content looks like?</p>
<p><a  href="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/google-video-sitemap.jpeg" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1386" title="Google Video Sitemap"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1402" title="Google Video Sitemap" src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/google-video-sitemap-300x155.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="155" /></a></p>
<p>Told you it wasn&#8217;t pretty.</p>
<h3>Video Sitemap Generator</h3>
<p>If you are putting videos on Youtube, then what I am about to share isn&#8217;t relevant.</p>
<p>But if you are putting video content on your own sites &#8211; where you can control the visitor&#8217;s experience, and importantly, you own the content &#8211; then here is a way to generate a Google friendly video sitemap in just minutes.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll start by saying that providing four of the five required pieces of information is very straightforward. It&#8217;s the last one that matters the most.</p>
<p>If you are using a professional video player like <strong><a  href="http://www.ezs3video.com/" rel="nofollow">EZS3</a></strong>, then the location of the video content is typically &#8220;encrypted&#8221; to make it difficult for people to access your video directly. Unfortunately, this also makes it almost impossible to create a video sitemap.</p>
<p>Never fear, I wouldn&#8217;t lead you down this path without a solution.</p>
<h3>EZS3 Sitemap Generator</h3>
<p>Let&#8217;s assume you are using EZS3 to host your videos.</p>
<p>Using the<strong> <a  href="http://www.superfastwebbuilder.com/scripts/ezs3.php?q=j" rel="nofollow" onclick="popup = window.open('http://www.superfastwebbuilder.com/scripts/ezs3.php?q=j', 'EZS3', 'height=750,width=580,status=no,linkbar=no,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes'); return false" target="_blank">EZS3 video sitemap generator</a> </strong>provided here, type in the &#8220;easy&#8221; required stuff &#8211; location of the page that has the video on it, the video thumbnail location, title for the video, and a description of the video.</p>
<p>All that is left to do is provide the Video Content Location.</p>
<p>Go into your EZS3 account, find the video you want to create a sitemap for.</p>
<p>You can do this by:</p>
<p>1) Clicking on &#8220;Manage Players&#8221; for one of the supported formats like flv, MP3, Camtasia Studio, mov, wmv, etc.</p>
<p>2) Select Player to Edit &#8211; choose one of the videos and click on the &#8220;View Player&#8221; button.</p>
<p><a  href="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/edit-player.jpeg" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1386" title="Edit Player"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1405" title="Edit Player" src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/edit-player-300x75.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="75" /></a></p>
<p>3) Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on either &#8220;Javascript Code&#8221; or &#8220;HTML code&#8221;, click the Select Code button, then copy the content (Ctrl-C for the PC and Command-C for the Mac).</p>
<p><a  href="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/select-code1.jpeg" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1386" title="select code"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1413" title="select code" src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/select-code1-300x76.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="76" /></a></p>
<p>Now go back to the EZS3 video sitemap generator and paste in the contents you use copied to the Video Content Location box.</p>
<p><a  href="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/video-content-location.jpeg" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1386" title="Video Content Location"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1407" title="Video Content Location" src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/video-content-location-300x238.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="238" /></a></p>
<p>Now that the required information is out of the way, there are just a couple optional pieces of information I recommend you provide.</p>
<p>One of the them is the Video Duration and the other is Video Tags. Video Tags are short one or two word phrases that describe your video. For instance, if this article was a video, I would probably add &#8220;<strong>video sitemap</strong>&#8220;, &#8220;<strong>google</strong>&#8221; and &#8220;<strong>EZS3</strong>&#8221; as tags (one per line).</p>
<p>Finally, click on the Submit button at the bottom.</p>
<h3>Create A Video Sitemap Page</h3>
<p>If everything went well, then a new content box appeared at the top with instructions to &#8220;Copy and Paste this content into a .xml file, i.e. &#8211; video.xml, on your site.</p>
<p><a  href="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/video-xml.jpeg" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1386" title="video-xml"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1408" title="video-xml" src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/video-xml-300x116.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="116" /></a></p>
<p>Do just that. You don&#8217;t have to use the filename &#8220;video.xml&#8221;, that was just a suggestion. You could use something like &#8220;video-sitemap.xml&#8221;. Just make sure the filename ends with a .xml.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s it, you&#8217;re done. If you want, you can go over to the Google Webmaster area and submit your newly created video sitemap. Or &#8230;</p>
<h3>Bonus</h3>
<p>Here is an extra tip to help with getting your newly created video sitemap found.</p>
<p>If you use the Google XML sitemaps plugin with WordPress, then from your WordPress dashboard click on Settings &gt; XML-Sitemaps, scroll about half way down the page and click on &#8220;Add new page&#8221;. Add the link to your newly created video sitemap, i.e. &#8211; http://www.example.com/video.xml, set the priority to 0.7, Change Frequency to Always, and add the current data in YYYY-MM-DD format. This will provide a link from our Google sitemap to your video sitemap.</p>
<p>Next, go to <a  href="http://www.pingoat.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.pingoat.com/</a>, type in your site&#8217;s name, site&#8217;s URL, i.e. &#8211; http://www.example.com, and your video feed, i.e. &#8211; http://www.example.com/video.xml.</p>
<p>After I used pingoat, the Google bot found my video.xml file just 7 short seconds later. Sweet!</p>
<p><a  href="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/googlebot.jpg" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1386" title="googlebot"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1409" title="googlebot" src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/googlebot-300x74.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="74" /></a></p>
<h3>You Just Gave Google What It Wants</h3>
<p>If Google finds your video content useful and relevant, you can expect to see more visitors to your video website.</p>
<p><strong><a  href="http://www.superfastwebbuilder.com/scripts/ezs3.php?q=j" rel="nofollow" onclick="popup = window.open('http://www.superfastwebbuilder.com/scripts/ezs3.php?q=j', 'EZS3', 'height=750,width=580,status=no,linkbar=no,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes'); return false" target="_blank">EZS3 video sitemap generator</a></strong></p>

<p><a  href="http://www.seobrainstrust.com" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Screen-shot-2009-10-28-at-11.25.57-AM.png" alt="Dan Thies" title="Dan Thies" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1063" /></a> Dan Thies can be counted on for a controversial SEO perspective and he is qualified too. He is one half of the <a  href="http://www.seobrainstrust.com" rel="nofollow">SEO Brain Trust</a>, a new project for dedicated Search Engine Optimization enthusiasts and students. The other half is Leslie Rohde. </p>
<p><strong>Internet Marketing all-rounder</strong><br />
Dan Thies is a very capable SEO (Search Engine Optimizer) and PPC (Pay Per Click) marketer. He has a very good business mind honed from being in the market for such a long time. If you can get good at both SEO and PPC then you have a great combination for making money online. I respect him very much and he is the man I ran my latest SEO product past before publishing because he knows a lot about this topic. He has a real business mind. We got to catch up and share some fresh information in this interview.</p>
<p><strong>Keyword Strategy</strong><br />
When looking for the right words to use on the site you should use both the obvious ones AND the ones you dig up later through research. You will find they break into general relevance and specific relevance. (Ignore wishful thinking keywords!). Every page is a marketing channel. Traffic to the site will typically be coming to the site through multiple pages so you want to cater to as many relevant key phrases as possible.</p>
<p><strong>Google Changes</strong><br />
Now with the way Google displays results there is a premium on the top few listings in Google. The top few spots are super sought after. The top three listings carry the greatest click through rates. Google are now trialling triple listings in the search results pages (SERPS). This is especially important since explorer browser uses tabbed browsing and this takes up more space. </p>
<p><strong>CTR (Click Through Rate) Statistics</strong><br />
Statistically (over 800 domains) Dan has gathered private data that shows the click through rates of the top three listings. 50% of the clicks go to the top three results. 60% of those clicks go to the top position. In other words, Dan recommends trying to get number one listings for less competitive terms than lower page one rankings for difficult terms. Google are also inserting shopping listings and video listings in the middle of page one on a frequent basis.</p>
<p><strong>SEO is a resources game</strong><br />
Try to do the on-site stuff at once but work on the link building as quickly as you can to get the site making money. Put the profits back into the site and build the amount of links for every possible relevant phrase. Keep using the resources you have to get top rankings for as many phrases as you can.</p>
<p><strong>ACT</strong><br />
ACT stands for Analytics and Conversion Testing. Working on persuasion elements (paying off on the promise) is a deep science that gets huge yields. This is an area Dan is passionate about and deeply specialized. When doing SEO consider that conversions are a HUGE part of the equation because that is the ultimate purpose for a site.Profit comes from traffic multiplied by conversions.<br />
<strong><br />
Strategy and tactics </strong><br />
You need to do a lot to stay ranked because the competitors with the deeper pockets will out spend you in maintaining a top SEO listing. The competition moves down to lower and lower competition keywords. You will need to get savvy with SEO because the game is getting beyond article spinning and made for adsense sites. As time goes on more webmasters will be getting smarter.</p>
<p><strong>Short v long</strong><br />
Sometimes the choice keywords are the short ones however not always. Often the longer tail phrases are more profitable. Revenue per click for pay per click ads show that the highest ranked keywords get more clicks and make more money per click. This means you should be aiming high for PPC and SEO using the RIGHT keyphrases.</p>
<p><strong>Using PPC?</strong><br />
Use exact match because broad match sucks. Recently the live quality score has meant that a lot of exact match phrase match ads no longer display. Dan will be releasing a PPC course to cater for these changes. These are being rolled out in <a  href="http://www.seobrainstrust.com" rel="nofollow">brainstrust</a>. PPC and SEO go very well together. Use SEO to locate the traffic for PPC campaigns. You can buy more profits this way. (I run the Google search query report to tell me what key phrases are bringing me the traffic). Having great SEO with great rankings you can expect to have an excellent quality score. I have long advocated the use of both paid and SEO traffic techniques to get a larger part of the pie.</p>
<p><strong>Amateurs days are numbered</strong><br />
We discussed the state of the market where there are some low quality operators out there jamming out spun content and fully automated blogs. Dan predicts they will get wiped out if they do not pay attention. The only way to play that game is volume related. Sites will get filtered as Google gets smarter and dials up the sensitivity. Dan prefers working on real sites with real content. The hybrid method Dan suggests revolves around having both the money sites and the content sites.</p>
<p><strong>Daily original content</strong><br />
Have an assistant screen topic related RSS feeds and within 30 minutes create 10 pages of content. It is a useful human driven content aggregation system. We discuss the feedwordpress and wp-o-matic plugins for WordPress. Putting fresh content on each site allows you to have a bigger site than your competitors by using the inbound links that are on each page pointing back to the page you need. The next step is to do this outside your site by building feeder sites that are building links to your but this is even more effective if you build links to your linkwheel sites. The more links you have and the more pages you have the more rank you can expect.</p>
<p><strong>Useful Tools for Internet Marketing</strong><br />
Excel spreadsheets and RSS reader tools are handy for workflow management. Dan uses Delicious bookmarking for his outsource team. He bookmarks anything he wants his team to create links for and they automatically start linking. Using automation for Facebook, Twitter or some similar device is a very smart idea. Always offer readers a Twitter or Facebook sharing button option. (HINT  &#8211; this blog post has one!)&#8230;. We are programmed to help share awesome content when we find it. Do whatever  you can to get do to get a large fan base. Facebook fan pages are a good idea (and possibly better than an opt-in list according to Dan). </p>
<p><strong>Great content is easy</strong><br />
Every page that carries good content can give to more links to your sites, enter your market as the bookmarking site for that industry and bookmark your own stuff too. If you can get user generated content you are ahead of the game.</p>
<p><strong>Is PageRank still important?</strong><br />
What matters far more is whether Google is indexing your page and is the cache date up to date. Dan says pagerank is nothing to be obsessing about, he does not even look at it. Google originally intended the PR device as a value ad for the toolbar. It probably helped them to get a lot of tool bars into the browser of the civilian market. Professional SEO&#8217;s need not worry about the PR toolbar.</p>
<p><strong>Getting links</strong><br />
If you need links just go to a forum and post. The closer the forum is to topic related matter the better the link. Answering posts in forums gets you links to your site. You can use the search function and find topics that are on theme. You don&#8217;t need monthly high PR backlink reports. </p>
<p><strong>Get Dan on your side</strong><br />
If you want to get access to more of Dan Thies stuff then I recommend you get into <a  href="http://www.seobrainstrust.com" rel="nofollow">SEOBrainstrust</a>. They are offering research, testing, special private data, Bugs in Google, safe exploitations and other things that nobody else discusses are on the agenda.

Dan also shares data on Link liberation lessons (how to get links, where to get links, why to get links etc).  I am also offering a bonus for you if you join through my link.</p>

This is my own private forum where you can get help from me and other switched on marketers. (If you are already a member then you can select a digital copy of Business Internet Formula instead).</p>

The point of the survey is to make sure my product addresses the core concerns of my client base.</p>
<p>In this case I got all the data back and compiled it into the most common questions. The survey sample was large and accurate so here are the survey results:</p>
<p><strong>The Top 7 Questions Affiliate Marketers Asked</strong></p>

2) How do I build a responsive list of buyers?<br />
3) How do I get sales without a powerful Blog?<br />
4) How do I make a bonus that is attractive when the super affiliates and gurus are competiing over product launches?<br />
5) How do I get traffic?<br />
6) How do I manage the technical stuff?<br />
7) Whats your biggest tip for affiliate marketers?</p>
<p>Rather than answer these myself I thought it would be beneficial to get another affiliate marketer on the phone and brainstorm some ideas. Jay Deiboldt is a bright marketer I met at underground seminar and I have been watching his handywork over the last year. His new product Google Slapper covers many of these topics so I thought he would be perfect to get on the line.</p>
<p>Here for your benefit is a 40 minute conversation between <strong>Jay Deiboldt</strong> and <strong>James Schramko</strong> discussing various aspects of affiliate marketing as we uncover some secrets and address each of the burning questions. We hope you enjoy it.</p>

		<itunes:summary>As I am putting together a product teaching people how to make money as affiliate marketers, I just conducted a detailed survey. The point of the survey is to make sure my product addresses the core concerns of my client base.

In this case I got all the data back and compiled it into the most common questions. The survey sample was large and accurate so here are the survey results:

The Top 7 Questions Affiliate Marketers Asked

1) How do I get sales without a list?
2) How do I build a responsive list of buyers?
3) How do I get sales without a powerful Blog?
4) How do I make a bonus that is attractive when the super affiliates and gurus are competiing over product launches?
5) How do I get traffic?
6) How do I manage the technical stuff?
7) Whats your biggest tip for affiliate marketers?

Rather than answer these myself I thought it would be beneficial to get another affiliate marketer on the phone and brainstorm some ideas. Jay Deiboldt is a bright marketer I met at underground seminar and I have been watching his handywork over the last year. His new product Google Slapper covers many of these topics so I thought he would be perfect to get on the line.

Here for your benefit is a 40 minute conversation between Jay Deiboldt and James Schramko discussing various aspects of affiliate marketing as we uncover some secrets and address each of the burning questions. We hope you enjoy it.

Topics revealed in the MP3

- Why new people are caught in the the vicious cycle of thinking they need to be building a list before they start.
- How to build traffic directly from Google and takeover the buying keywords searched for.
- How to start with zero customers on list and how you can make sales even without a list.
- Why you should target buyers and make a list of buyers
- How to collect names of people who are looking to purchase
- How to build a list of responsive buyers
- How to get ultra high open rates
- How to have a high quality client
- Factors for building trust, getting high stick rates and keeping people on your list
- Creative ways to come up with extra bonuses people value
- A tip about subject lines for excellent open rates
- Why you should tell people when they should not buy something
- Tips on how to avoid the reciprocation pressure
- How you should review things and if you should truly believe in anything you promote
- blog review model for established rankings
- Tips to get traffic if you do not have a powerful blog
- Hot new resource Jay has noticed that is getting great rankings
- Details on how to construct a killer bonus offer.
- Examples of bonuses and launch results
- What bonus formats work best and why
- The one bonus that is a huge mistake (and people still do this!!!)
- How to create a three way win:win:win with value bonuses
- How to partner and leverage others when you have no bonus
- Why helping others will get you ahead faster

Plus we cover more tips for getting traffic including:

- web 2.0
- blogs
- forums
- ppc tactics
- wordpress
- forum marketing mistakes
- testing techniques to determine where the best results come from
- how to maximize the result

Small wins early on can get you in the right mindset

We end the chat with Jay&#039;s big tip - the one thing you must learn. I also offer a tip - how to set up in the beginning to end up ahead. We close discussing how to stay organized
by doing one thing at a time, eliminating onfo overload and taking massive action...

<p><a  href="http://www.undergroundlabtraining.com" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/jeffjohnson-underground-training-lab.jpg" alt="" title="jeffjohnson-underground-training-lab" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-476" /></a></p>
<p>Jeff Johnson actually gets it. He is one of the few marketers who knows what he is doing when it comes to tapping into traffic from search engines. Forget the sharpies trying to flog you the latest &#8220;Google XXXX&#8221; package for $995. Jeff is quality all the way.</p>
<p><strong>How do I know this?</strong></p>
<p>First he offers loads of proof in all his <a  href="http://www.undergroundlabtraining.com" rel="nofollow"><strong>material</strong></a>. The other thing is he is doing similar things to what I am doing. I know first hand his techniques work. He is one of the few marketers talking about it. He is revealing the exact same techniques I use to drive huge traffic from free search engines.</p>
<p><strong>Great Content</strong></p>
<p>His videos are informative and a few clever readers will have noticed I have been following his youtube videos. In his recent social traffic videos he teaches how to get a lot of page one listings using video distribution methods via outsourcing. One or two videos distributed with special software and then bookmarked will get you massive listings. </p>
<p>This stuff is so simple and hardly anyone is doing it properly. I strongly suggest you watch each of his videos and see if his coaching is for you. </p>
<p>He also discusses adding social profile pages, squidoo and social bookmarking sites. Eventually you end up dominating the search engines.</p>
<p><strong>Bring on the leverage!</strong></p>
<p>Next he talks about creating three wordpress blogs to cover a market. Put a story on your blog about the three social sites. The search engines follow the links. This is how you rank the pages.</p>
<p>The tip about misspellings is something he let slip out and is such a strong method. Users often do not know how to spell products. The method of driving traffic via video to other sites to then drive to money pages is highly effective.</p>
<p>Take the RSS feeds from your blogs and put them in your squidoo pages and other pages. He did not mention pinging but I guess that will come later. These techniques are a great way to boost traffic for a product launch too.</p>
<p><strong>Get a BONUS</strong></p>
<p>I spoke at JJ&#8217;s Detroit event and he is giving that presentation to lucky buyers of his program. This was a quality event and you will love the secrets I revealed there.</p>

<p>The makers of xsitepro put together a training course stepping you through ALMOST everything you need to know for building a website from scratch.</p>
<p><strong>Comprehensive System</strong><br />
The course covered how the internet was formed! The new e-learning system used integrates video with clickable charts. The course has live cutaway video of Richard from Intellimon (the chief Trainer of this course). Presented in perfect English you will be able to understand everything he says in crystal clear format. There are homework modules and this will help with retention.</p>
<p><strong>26 Modules Covering All The Basics</strong><br />
-Introduction<br />
-Foundation<br />
-Research<br />
-Projects<br />
-Web Site Templates<br />
-Custom Websites<br />
-Adding web pages<br />
-Text &amp; Formatting<br />
-Working with Images<br />
-Wizards and tables<br />
-Navigation Page &amp; Interlinking<br />
-Website Content<br />
-Audio &amp; Video<br />
-RSS Feeds<br />
-Extra Features<br />
-Quick Pages<br />
-Adding Site Search<br />
-List Building<br />
-Pay Per Click Advertising<br />
-Affiliate Programs<br />
-Selling Direct<br />
-SEO Part 1<br />
-SEO Part 2<br />
-Publishing Your Site<br />
-Housekeeping<br />
-Final Test</p>
<p><strong>What I Didn&#8217;t like</strong><br />
It is a little wordy compared to other training courses out there. It could be done with about ten less videos and less technical information. Some of the charts are a probably not required. It lacks commercial bias. (There may be plenty of people who just want to build a website for fun or entertainment however I imagine you would rather learn how to make websites that sell. It could have gone into a little more strategy). The modules are not designed to be downloaded so you need to stream the lessons each time. Some of the information I do not entirely agree with&#8230;however it is a good starting point.</p>
<p><strong>What I did like</strong><br />
The course covers many of the most basic elements one should know if contemplating building websites. The player remembers where you are up to in the training. It is easy to see what you have already watched. The variety of on camera and screen shots are a nice blend to hold attention. The production is high quality and the core information will greatly assist detail oriented users (especially FIRST time computer users). Unfortunately the course is suited to software called XSitePro which is no longer my recommended website software platform.</p>
<p><strong>Summary </strong></p>
<p><strong></strong>I no longer recommend XSitePro or the complete guide to website building. Instead I suggest you use WordPress. The best two WordPress themes are <a  href="http://www.recommendwp.com/wordpress-thesis-theme-bonus/" rel="nofollow" title="thesis review and bonus" target="_blank">Thesis</a> and <a  href="http://www.lovethisproduct.com/optimizepress-bonus/" rel="nofollow" title="optimizepress bonus and review" target="_blank">Optimizepress</a>. You can read more about these two themes and get a bonus with them at <a  href="http://www.buywithbonus.com" rel="nofollow" title="Internet Marketing Reviews" target="_blank">BuyWithBonus.com</a><script type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[

<p><strong>Huge &#8216;mafia&#8217; internet marketing offer</strong><br />
Brad has been introducing me to Goldratt thinking, Theory of Constraints. This changes the way we deal in business. Brad has applied the teachings to formulate an offer which &#8216;cannot be matched&#8217; and is therefore very good.  </p>

<p>Google kindly offers up all sorts of information when you do the right search for places to put your backlinks&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Follow or No Follow?</strong><br />
Note, I do not concern myself whether a blog or resource is a &#8216;follow&#8217; or no follow resource. I like links from anywhere as it is always targeted to my market and also looks more natural.  </p>
<p><strong>Here are some great sneaky ways to get some SEO links and attention from high ranking authority sites&#8230;</strong><br />
<a  href="http://www.superfastresults.com" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.internetmarketingspeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/sneaky.jpg" alt="sneaky" title="sneaky" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-863" /></a></p>
<p><strong>1. Comment Love</strong><br />
Comment luv is a popular wordpress plug-in that displays the last post from your blog when you make a comment. This provides you a nice keyword related deep anchor text link. </p>
<p>To locate blogs in your niche that use this plug-in use this search in Google:</p>
<p> “title=”CommentLuv Enabled”&#8221;   KEYPHRASE</p>
<p>(be sure to replace the keyphrase with your target term). Once you get the results make a valuable comment on the top ranking blogs and you will get a nice juicy link back.</p>
<p><strong>2. Squidoo</strong></p>
<p>To locate Squidoo lenses in your niche that allow links use this search in Google:</p>
<p>KEYPHRASE +  site:squidoo.com + &#8220;0 points&#8221;</p>
<p>Next click on the high ranking Squidoo lens. Go down to &#8216;list&#8221; and at the bottom and click on &#8220;Add To This List&#8221;. Add your website URL to the list. Make sure the description includes your keywords and vary them for each lens you add links to&#8230;.</p>
<p><strong>3. Youtube</strong></p>
<p>To locate Youtube channels in your niche that allow comments:</p>
<p>&#8220;KEYPHRASE&#8221; &#8220;Channel Comments&#8221; site:youtube.com/user</p>
<p>Go down to comments at the bottom and make a useful comment about the channel. People will follow you back to your channel&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Important</strong><br />
Use this information wisely and add real value when you make comments. Spammy comments will get you nowhere fast.  Let me know how you go..</p>
