The Closest You’ll Ever Get To A Sure Thing, Period.

My $100k Blueprints!If you’re a regular reader or a member of our forum, you know where we stand on “easy money”, “sure things”, or “Magic Bullets” – no such thing.

But you’ve probably also heard me go on about the level of opportunity available to all, and the near-certainty with which a committed individual can achieve success online.

Today we get to turn that talk into a tangible, actionable Treasure Map with the public release of “My $100k Blueprints!

As far as making money online goes, it is certainly one of the best things we’ve produced. To paraphrase a pre-release customer, “…if you can’t make money with this, you might as well just go home”.

(NOTE: We just released “Linking 2.0″ to customers only; it will be available to all next week).

Tax time is never fun, but this year it’s a boon – for you!

If you’ve been generating any income online, you know that come the end of the year, with tax time right around the corner, all those little slips start showing up in the mail:  your “1099” and other income declaration forms listing every payment, commission, and bonus you’ve received over the year, so that you can make sure you pay your fair share of taxes.

I won’t go into my personal thoughts on Death & Taxes, or what the IRS has done for me, but I will tell you what they’ve done for you…

Landing Page Tips For The ‘Marketing-Challenged’, Part 1

Landing Pages 1Are your internet marketing efforts falling short of the mark? Not making enough sales? Too few opt-ins or sign-ups?

Everyone has goals for their websites and if those goals aren’t being met, then you need to understand why in order to rectify the problem.

We’ll assume you’re getting traffic (obviously, if no one is visiting your site, then there is no one to buy, opt-in, etc.).  If visitors are arriving but not converting, it may be time to analyze your landing page. Your landing page is the first page that people come to when they go to your website. That page will also have all of the avenues which visitors can easily navigate to other areas of your website.

The 7 Deadly Sins of Internet Marketing

Internet Marketing failureWith so many people putting in some much time, effort, and resources into making money online, you’d think there would be a lot more successes. After all, the business of online marketing has matured quite a bit: there’s a wide array of business models to pursue, with easily learned strategies and effective tactics.

So why do so many fail?

As someone with nearly two decades in the trenches, and daily exposure & interaction on our own forum of 3,200+ internet marketers, I’ve seen it all. But while I can still be surprised, as I consider the question, the phrase “nothing new under the sun” comes to mind. In other words, I see marketers making the same mistakes today as I did when I began trying to make money online. It seems for every successful effort, there are 10 or more internet marketers – new & old – failing to achieve their objectives.

Seriously Addictive Brain(storming) Resources

niche researchAs a business model, “Content Marketing” makes a lot of sense. It’s the strategy of using great content to drive our success, and it lends itself to internet marketing beautifully.

The internet itself is, in a very real respect, just a massive interconnected web of content.

But right now, I’m not interested in “the internet”, I’m interested in driving the success of my own business. Suddenly, the grand vision starts to get a little abstract. “Content Marketing” also means, one way or another, finding ways to come up with that “great content”. And therein lies the rub, as they say.

The “Re-launch” of 100k Blueprint!

In 2010, we published our first course on making money online, “Adsense $100k Blueprint“, a guide to building a 6-figure Adsense business by duplicating how we built our ‘in-house’ Adsense business.

The course went on to get rave reviews, and sold well enough to qualify us as a Clickbank “Premiere” account, an exclusive tier for their top vendors . We released “Traffic $100k Blueprint” a few months later, and followed our initial ‘A100k’ course with a Version 2 almost exactly a year after it was first published.

We also launched our private paid forum, intended initially to provide a deeper level of support and access for customers of the course. Since the private forum launched, it’s blossomed into one of the best internet marketing forums on the net, with 25,000+ posts and nearly 3,000 members.

Affiliate Marketing 2.0

updatesIf you read our blog regularly, or participate in our live training sessions, you might have noticed we’re on a “2.0″ kick lately.

I use it primarily in the term “Internet Marketing 2.0″, something I coined while writing the “Disruptive Correction” report. Ok, so I wasn’t the first one to coin the term… In any event, I’d actually begun using the term before that, about 18 months ago.

Since my ‘job’ revolves around making money online, I’m acutely aware of the state of internet marketing. For better or worse, it’s a different environment than it once was, with different rules.

Launch of Internet Marketing 2.0

Internet Marketing 2.0

For over a year we’ve been talking about the ‘death’ of “Internet marketing 1.0″, and the ‘dawn’ of “Internet marketing 2.0″.

We use the February 2011 roll-out of Google’s Panda update and the recent Penguin update as the dividing line between the old and the new – the final death of the ‘old’, and birth of the ‘new’. Last night marked our launch into this new paradigm.

Tuesday is one of our two live training sessions in our “$100k Results!” Live Training and Coaching membership. We used last night’s session to introduce our new Internet marketing 2.0 traffic and ranking strategy.

How To Improve Conversions, Part I

boost conversionsWhatever business model you use, making money online comes down to conversions. It’s what all your of your other efforts revolve around. Whether that’s an ad click, a form submission, or a sale, that’s the goal, the action you’re aiming for.

And the fact is, improving conversions is the fastest way to make more money.

For most internet marketers, conversions take place on their website. While many “off-page” factors contribute (or detract) from our conversion rate, such as how well qualified the visitors that we’re courting are, it’s usually the website that clinches the deal. In other words, whether or not a visitor converts will be determined by how ‘well’ the page they’re on ‘works’.
