I have seen in my workshops around Australia, New Zealand and the UK that there are many learning Internet Marketing, who are seriously ready to go to a new level. This event is not a sales pitch, and other than a few tools you  will need, you will not be persuaded to buy any Package or “Special Offer”. Instead, incorporated in the event, you will walk away with Manuals, DVDs and all the resources you need, to  master everything covered in the 4 ½ days.

This is a unique opportunity! Join a maximum of 35 other motivated people and  have us  clear any blocks holding you back and help to elevate your internet marketing experience!

This retreat follows a similar successful Retreat last year and we are working to make this year even bigger and better with great content and MORE resources. We have already had some from last year saying they would like to attend again…..

More WordPress Plugins You Have to Have

WordPress Plugins You Have to Have

Last week we looked at 5 WordPress Plugins that you have to have on your WordPress site, so this week I want to carry that theme on and look at another 5 that you will also need to use.

WordPress as a Website platform is quite amazing and if you do keyword research and also get the right product you will have a winner of a site. The biggest mistake I see people make is just putting in heaps of tags and or keywords and they are not that relevant to the article. So if you use the SEO correctly then you are on the road to having an unstoppable website.

The 5 WordPress Plugins we will look at this week are …

6. Frame Buster

This plugin will thwart any attempt to load your site in a frame. Optimal for getting images to rank on the search engines. This could be more for the geeky people among us, so if you still have no idea what it’s all about then leave it off or just go with it and add it onto your site. Go visit the site of this WordPress plugin and am sure you will learn more on how to use it.

7. Sexy Bookmarks

I love this plugin -  it makes me smile when I see it being used on people’s blogs. I have to say I only have it on a couple of blogs as it is only recently that I found it, but go download it and use it. I love the handwritten messages it does for you. Make sure thought that you get the correct one and that it’s  By Shareaholic.  This wordpress plugin allows your readers to submit your articles to numerous bookmarking sites on the Web.

9. CommentLuv

This is another of my favourite plugins and I will show you in the video what exactly it does when you use it. CommentLuv WordPress Plugin allows your visitors to comment while adding a link to their own blog post. This will encourage them to comment and in combination with the Akismet plugin can get you genuine and informative comments on your blog. It’s very cool and it leaves a trace of where you have been and whose site you have commented on… take a look at it.

Last of the WordPress Plugins

10. WP Backlinks

This of all the WordPress Plugins is brilliant as it allows you to track the links going back to your blog. For SEO purposes, you want as many links back to your website as possible, but at the same time, you want them to come from reputable and legitimate sites. Also we want sites that have a good Google Page Rank, which is different from just being on the front page of google. The WP Backlinks plugin WordPress Plugins gives you the ability to control and verify this. So put this on your list of to help you with all your back linking. It is not actually called WP Backlinks it is infact just Backlinks so please get that one right.

I suggest you go ahead and use the 10 WordPress Plugins that I have written to you about over the last 2 weeks. They will help you rank well and will help you to start dominating the Web with your blog. Also you will need to keep in mind that it’s the quality and frequency of content that you add to your blog that will determine its success. My hope is that you have found these two articles about the top 10 wordpress plugins on the Web very useful. Of course there are so many more, but use these and begin to see a marked difference in your blog rankings.

Blogging For Profit

Blogging For Profit?

It would seem that most people today are talking about Blogging.

I guess the big question I get is, can you make money by Blogging?

How often do I need to blog?

What do I blog about?

All good questions…. I have been blogging for a couple of years now; I have many different blogs covering lots of topics and on every blog site I have adverts and ways to monetize the site, so in answer to the second question, Yes! you can make money blogging, you just have to know how :-)

Blogging For Profit

So let me give you 6 Tips for Blogging:

6 Tips For Blogging Success!

If you want to make money through blogging, creating a popular blog is the key to success. If your blog receives very little traffic, you will not have much success monetizing it. No matter which method you use to make money from your blog, you will find the most success if you have a large readership. Because of this, making your blog popular and growing readership should be one of your primary concerns.

There are many ways to make your blog more popular. The first thing you should consider is who your audience is and who you are writing for. You should always write about something that interests you, and that will interest others. You may think that your new kitten is the greatest thing since sliced bread, but there are probably not very many other people who want to read a blog about it, unless of course your blog happens to be about kittens :-)   It is best to find a niche audience that is large enough to support a wide readership but not too vague.

One of the great things about blogging is that you do not have to be a professional writer to have a popular blog. You do have to obey common grammatical rules and at least be able to put together coherent sentences, but you do not have to be a highly skilled writer. In fact some of my favourite blogs are ones that are what I would call sloppy English and the odd grammar issue and spelling errors as well.

1. Blog readers are looking for interesting, relevant topics to read, not the next work of Shakespeare. Make sure what you write is interesting, edgy, or even controversial. Popular blogs are never boring and add value to readers’ lives either through information or entertainment. Make sure your blog adds something of value to your reader’s life otherwise you will not develop a large fan base, and we need a large fan base to make it all work and to make the money that most bloggers are wanting from their sites.

2. Making your blog popular is a lot like driving traffic to a website. You can use many of the same techniques to drive traffic to your blog. Finding places to link back to your blog is a good way to drive traffic. Social sites such as Twitter, Facebook, and You tube provide lots of opportunities for this. You can also use social book marking sites such as Reddit, StumbleUpon, and Digg to promote your blog. Blogging on a popular blog site such as WordPress and Blogger are also good ways to make your blog more popular as these blogging sites help to bring in traffic for your blog.

3. Whether you blog on a blogging network or you have an independently hosted blog, you need to make sure your blog is designed well. It is true that content is king and if a blog has great content it may receive lots of traffic even though it is ugly. Having a well designed blog that is not ugly or annoying will help to drive repeat traffic. You want your blog to look unique, but not too unique. Keep with internet formalities such as blue links and use large font for headings.

4. You should break your post up into small paragraphs each with a headline if possible as internet readers tend to scan the screen looking for relevant information rather than reading everything word for word. Make sure your colors do not contrast too harshly and that the text is easy to read. Using good design will make your blog aesthetically pleasing and make readers more likely to come back and remain on your page. I see many people like to use the black background and white letters, I personally find that just too hard to read. I am sure there are many Baby Boomers out there who struggle the same as I do trying to read these most difficult sites. Black on white is fine, the other way round is ok for the younger set who still have eyesight :-)

5. No matter where your blog is hosted, you should try to get it indexed by all the major search engines. Some forms of blog monetization require that your blog be indexed by search engines before they will allow you to participate in your program. The higher ranked your blog is, the more visitors you will receive and the more popular your blog will become. I would get any new site listed into the 3 main search engines as soon as possible and there is an easy way to do this using this Site Submission Link It also helps to send it out to all the Social Bookmarking and Social Networking sites as well.

6. All forms of monetization for your blog require readers to enjoy their stay, and their experiance. Before you try to implement your monetization strategies, make sure your blog has enough readers to make your efforts work. If there is no one to click your ads, visit your affiliate sites, or read your reviews, you do not stand much of a chance of making money. So make the articles interesting and informative.

Further to our questions earlier… How often do I need to blog and What do I blog about..

Blogging For Profit

Autoposters

How Often? … my suggestion is at least once a week. On this, my very own blog, I like to do all the blog posts myself and so I blog once or twice a week, sometimes more but if so, then I schedule the posts to come in over a period of one to 3 weeks, it just depends. In today’s amazing world, we don’t need to blog ourselves as we have all these amazing Autoposters that do the job for us. So once setup they will put in information on your topic as often as you set it for, both articles and videos. It is amazing.

What do I blog about?.. well it needs to be on topic thats for sure. So whatever the topic then you need to talk about it. If you run out of things to write about then either use the Autoposters or find someone you can interview. Once you interview them, then you can turn the interview into a video, by taking their main points putting them onto a power point and then using a program like Movie Making Programs or MS Movie Maker. It really is endless what you can do… but whatever you do have fun :-)

Social Networking in Plain English

Social Networking in Plain English

I have just run one of my workshops this last weekend in Perth. I was trying to explain how important it is to do Social Networking.

There are at least 3 Social Networking Sites that I believe as an Internet Marketer you should belong to, of course there are many more but I really don’t have time to be active in any more than these.

Twitter

Facebook

Linkedin

Most of you will have heard of all of those I am sure unless you have been living under a rock. :-)

I believe that when these groups were created they were not setup to be used as Marketing Companies and that is really what they have now become. I have to say that alot of my sales and now my database has grown from both Twitter and Facebook, they are both very powerful.

But what is Social Bookmarking?

I decided to pop this video into here for you to watch, I love the way this guy explains how this all works. There is one thing that too many people forget… there are 2 words in Social Networking… we are used to Networking and often forget the most important word these days and thats the word “Social”. Too many just get out there and sell, sell, sell in both Facebook, Twitter and Linked-In and just forget that one needs to be social as well. To take part in conversations and care…

As it stands right now I have a very high google page rank on one of my Twitter accounts. This has happened because I have been taking part and also I have almost as many followers as I have following. I also tweet so that must be what makes goole happy with what I am doing. I have other twitter accounts with various rankings… also I note that Google has changed and is now listing people’s Twitter accounts in googl, and in some cases my Twitter account is ranked higher than my Website. How amazing.

I use Social Networking to connect Socially with people and I believe to get the most out of Social Networking you should be doing the same.

I guess the other issue is, most don’t want to Tweet and don’t go near it because they believe they will be wasting time, well one needs to try it out and see the results. I have most of my Tweeting on automatic as you will see from earlier posts I believe in using tools to make things as simple as possible. My Twitter Adder software is amazing and worth a look at that’s for sure.

3 Tips to having a great Twitter Account

1. Setup a Twitter account for each Niche

2. Only follow people in your Niche

3, Take part and don’t be a Twitter Snob

Same applies for the other Social Networking groups as well.

If you are looking for some more tips and tricks on using Social Networking and other social media then my 350 Social Media Tactics will be a great help to you I am sure as the 350 Tips will help you think outside the box as to things you can do to use Social Media

Enjoy the video and let me know your thoughts.
