IntroductionThere are a few successful Aussies around on the net. Did you know about these guys:
Fr33biesHere is a fre3 ebook for this month: How to Write, Create, Promote and Sell Ebooks On The Internet Ebook. By Dirk Dupon. A concise guide to creating your own ebook. Marketing and Tech Tips I've started writing my own articles. Writing your own articles is an excellent free viral marketing technique. And I had fun experimenting with Adobe's CreatePDF to convert my marketing webpage to a PDF e-book file. Have a look at CreatePDF here.I didn't touch a thing - just pointed it to my webpage and told it to convert it. If you like it, you can give my PDF away to help build your own mailing list. The picture has the link for my PDF. I knocked up the picture in Adobe Photoshop. Not as good as the paid graphics, but hey, I did it for fr3e.
Search engine spidering and ranking is continually changing. The current outlook is that the more focussed a site is, the better it will rank. So even my Home Business World site has to change because it has three focus points: 1-Work from home; and 2-Fr3e marketing tips and 3 - Get Paid programs. So in the next weeks I will be splitting the site into three different minisites, and promoting them separately. There will still be a link from the main site to the minisites. One benefit will be that Zeal should accept the fr3e marketing information site as it will not have business opportunities listed on it's pages. This will happen gradually, as I revamp the main Home Business World site. There were so many ways to my site could be optimised, it was easier to pull it apart this way. The first site, A-Get-Paid-Site.com has been thoroughly optimised, in terms of content and naming standards. The second site, Free-Marketing-Help.com will be a fast-loading, step-by-step approach to marketing, expanding upon the introduction given here, and detail the exact steps I used in building A-Get-Paid-Site. The newsletter will continue to cover all three areas. I'm also going to be moving some (or all) of my sites to Kiosk's h0sting. They do have a fr3e option, but I wanted the extra space, tools and service. If there is a period of unavailability, it will be the 2 days period when I move from fr3ewebs to Kiosk. So I won't promote it until it is safely at Kiosk. I spent a few days reading Affinity Masters, by Ken McEvoy. It is probably the best marketing book I have ever read. Ken McEvoy is the force behind SiteSell, SiteBuildIt and the 5 Pillar Affinity Club. The 5 Pillar Affinity Club is absolutely fr3e, and has by far the best training for internet marketing I have ever seen. You can download Affinity Masters ebook for fr3e. If you only act on one thing from this month's newsletter, you should join the 5 Pillar Club. Seriously. Recent ads are pushing a book on the l3gal disclaimers recommended for websites. If you want to see the US FTC guidelines for fr3e, look at this page: FTC Dot Com Disclosures I had planned to investigate safelists thoroughly this month, but got sidetracked setting up a-get-paid-site and fr3e-marketing-help. But I did start, towards the end of the month. I researched programs offering paid h0sting and safelist-friendly emails, and after several recommendations, chose Kiosk. I chose the PRO option, with 3 domains, 300MB h0sting, unlimit3d email aliases and forwarding, adtracker, 5 GB bandwidth and more. The best advice I got about safelists was using an auto-submitter. A fr3e one is available at SnazzyPromotions. Success with safelists only comes with volume, so get into the habit of daily submissions. It is much easier with Snazzy's auto-safelist submitter. Business Program ChangesThe biggest news is obviously the new program from Mike Glaspie, Sp@m Terminator. Much awaited, it was released at midnight on the 28th May. I have just paid for membership, and you can join under me at Sp@m Terminator. You can join fre3, but the best matrix benefits are from the paid once-a-year membership. They expect a million people to join in the first year. It will be interesting to see how it goes. Forced matrix 3x10. Interesting ping technology used to detect fake addresses. A new payment processor has been launched, called PaybyCredits. PayByCredits It is fr3e to join, and very flexible and internet-friendly. You can earn by referrals, too, so blast this one out on your safelists. Their official blurb is: Refer your friends and get paid every time that they receive funds! You will get 5% of the receive fees deposited directly into your PayByCredits account each and every time a person that you referred receives funds from another person! If you refer a lot of people you will benefit greatly from this feature! MLMEthics is officially dead. They have notified all members that the program is over. They started late in 2002. They were one of the first to promote the matrix reversal concept. They showed some initiative with the middle-out flip, which did produce a payment for me, and also in going to twice-monthly flips, given that a month feels like a year on the internet. Their forum had died two months ago, when the majority of posts had a negative flavour. Unfortunately every third flip was top-down, meaning the same early birds were the winners, and a fixed pool of funds was simply being redistributed amongst members. The sole product was informational e-books. That's not enough these days. I joined a program this month to take advantage of a matrix reversal - which is obviously what the owners were hoping for. I had seen all the ads on various safelists (see, people do read them) about Revolution9's reversal on May 1. So I joined last thing on April 30 (US-time), paid up for Empowerism, and bingo, on May 1 I had 160 people under me. I won't get paid until mid-June, and only up to level 4 unless I sponsor people. So I will be able to review Revolution9 and Empowerism for you. Some big news is the merger of Total Marketing Live (TML) and Ca$h Evolution. TML was originally known as Chat4Dollars. Ca$h Evolution was the company that all the 1WorldLine (OWL) people were directed to join. So this is quite a coup for TML. They get to incorporate all the inv3stment training from CE with the excellent TML marketing training., plus the Ca$hEvolution members. They also revised the matrix structure of TML to be a 3x3 regenerating matrix, with fast ca$h bonuses for direct referrals, to allow for more spillover, easier matrix filling and extra income. I had previously joined TML via The Residual Club, which is definitely the way to go, as it qualifies you as a Gold member in the fr3e Residual Club. Look at my link at The Residual Club. Ca$h Evolution no longer exists as a company. The Residual Club also joined their second program starting 21st May, even getting in before the owners 1WorldLine. ECC - The EqualChanceClub has gone private. They sent out emails to all members asking for a vote, and everybody agreed it was time to start earning. So I have had to remove it from the business page as we can no longer introduce new members. They will concentrate on getting the programs ready for existing members to join. If they open the doors again later, I will place the ad back. It's definitely a busy month. Plus being soccer team manager, chess team manager, and doing ticketing for our school fireworks night, I rarely have enough time to do everything I would like to on the internet. Paid Email/Survey/Surf ChangesThanks to a subscriber, I looked at the Mon3eyList. They provide (over the period of 20 days) instructions on making mon3y from high-paying, reliable paid-email programs. If you don't have time to read emails from 14 different programs or to wait 20 days for all the information, just visit my get-paid site for my version of the absolute best - I find that even 7 or 8 programs takes up more than enough of my time. I'd rather be researching more fre3bies and short-cuts for you :-) I have updated the descriptions to tell you which are the highest paying lately. Have a look at A Get Paid Site But since revamping their site, AllYouSubmitters has been sending out an incredibly large number of 5 cent emails each day - I can barely keep up. So if you only join one program , I would have to recommend AYS
Fr33 AdIf you have a useful tip that I haven't covered, send it in, and the best tip will receive a 5 line ad in the next issue of this newsletter.
