<p>Today, the Telegraph.co.uk had this image on the front page. It&#8217;s a picture of Diamien Hirst&#8217;s 100 Million dollar lice sized skull plastered ( yes, thats my own terminology ) with 8,601 pieces of near worthless but incredibly hard pieces of glass.</p>
<p>Well, that wasn&#8217;t quite accurate, it wasn&#8217;t glass &#8211; those clear colored pieces really were diamonds but insofar as there are already over a billion pieces of registered white diamond stones, there is little intrinsic value in them.</p>
<p>Does this contrast with what I said above about a 100 Million dollar valuation?<br />
<span id="more-14966"></span><br />
Well, this planet is a study in contrasts, isn&#8217;t it?</p>
<p>As are the million and one online courses out there teaching <span style="font-weight: bold">Internet marketing</span> and what it takes to be the next millionaire.</p>
<p>Hopefully, by now, you the reader have already clued in to the fact that a few will become millionaires but not you. Nothing wrong with being realistic particularly about something like <span style="font-style: italic">internet marketing</span>, but as I get asked often enough, what is the truth &#8211; can we make really make money from <span style="text-decoration: underline">internet marketing</span>?</p>
<p>The paragraph below came from the site fast lane forum.</p>
<blockquote><p>Well, the truth is often stranger than fiction. As we learned in our more recent study, that opportunity remains. This year, we went back and interviewed 188 of the original 652 e-millionaires. Though the growth rate of new e-millionaires has understandably slowed, there are still by our analysis 8,364 e-millionaires in the United States who control slightly more than $300 billion in investable assets. Link below gives more information on the elusive 8,364 and that was back in 2008.</p></blockquote>
<p><a rel="nofollow" title="How many internet Millionaires in United States ? The Answer may surprise you." href="http://trevorweir.com/go/124/" target="_blank">read more about the 8,364 mostly young millionaires</a></p>
<p>So, these 8,300+ online gurus are obviously doing something right concerning their internet marketing, how about you?</p>
<p>For most of us, just getting a second income going would be a nice treat. Don&#8217;t you agree?</p>
<p>Someone famous once said that</p>
<p>&#8220;&#8230;most of us don&#8217;t plan to fail, we simply fail to plan &#8230;&#8221; and to continue with famous quotes &#8230;</p>
<p>So, the journey of a thousand miles starts with one single step.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;"><strong><a rel="nofollow" href="http://trevorweir.com/go/32/">Lao-tzu</a></strong>, <em>The Way of Lao-tzu</em><br />
<em>Chinese philosopher (604 BC &#8211; 531 BC)</em></p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;">But what step should that be?</p>
<p>That step depends on who you are, what offline real world talents you already have and what resources in terms of time and assets you wish to throw into the internet marketing mix. Thats not a real answer, right? As in, it didn&#8217;t definitively give you a step to take. However, what it did do, other than obfuscating the truth, was to inform you that even the direction of that step is dependent on you individually.</p>
<p>So, looking at the following people, the steps for efficient secondary income are different for differing reasons.</p>
<ul>
<li>Retiree with a $60,000 nest egg, can probably afford to invest 15-20 hours a week and 2-4,000 in cash to hopefully break even in month 4 and go on to earn $1500 a month</li>
<li>Student with precocious internet skills, little life experience and little or no cash.</li>
<li>Mom at home managing 3 small kids, limited time and limited cash but still looking for a steady 3-500 monthly.</li>
</ul>
<p>Its easy to see that, each of the above individuals is at a different stage in life and has different resources to throw at the same problem.</p>
<h3>Our Retiree &#8211; Looking For Another Income</h3>
<p>Our retiree can afford to invest in some high powered help, a proven online</p>
<div id="attachment_14970" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 285px"><a href="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/wealthy-retiree-with-assets.jpeg"><img class="size-full wp-image-14970" title="wealthy-retiree-with-assets" src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/wealthy-retiree-with-assets.jpeg" alt="Wealthy retire may have assets that they can pull on to create secondary income." width="275" height="183" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Retiree is likely to have both cash assets and Life Experiences to Pull From. </p></div>
<p>course, proven online tools and a program with a help desk that can &#8220;hand hold&#8221; her and guide her through 98% of the process.</p>
<p>There are several long running online courses run by highly reputable groups that take on only 10-20 students at the $3-$5000 level. One or two have fantastic reviews, great existing student testimonials, mature tools for students to use, as well as offshore man hours that are given to the student to ensure that they succeed, etc.</p>
<p>Most of us don&#8217;t have $3-%5000 to invest in these &#8220;sure thing&#8221; type internet marketing courses, but for those that do, this can be a great path to take. My advice to interested retirees of almost any age is to find an internet savvy close family member or someone that you can trust and go in 70/30 with that person but do so only after you have taken a <a rel="nofollow" href="http://trevorweir.com/go/2346er/" target="_blank">free online course</a>.<br />
As an example of the type of problem an experienced online person can help you through &#8211; My sister bought a course for about $600.00 several years ago. She made a mistake while asking them to register the domain name and the wrong one was registered.</p>
<p>She tried for many weeks to get them to reverse this simplistic internet marketing error, not knowing of course that its almost impossible to reverse and that she should have just gone and gotten another one and handed it to the same group to work with.</p>
<p>That idiotic group didn&#8217;t bother to tell her a mistake had been made that couldn&#8217;t &#8220;be unmade&#8221; and so she argued with them for many weeks before she gave up. Imagine, had she contacted me, that or any other problem like that could have been resolved in minutes or hours instead of weeks.</p>
<p>This sort of thing is why I would suggest sometimes that if you have both cash and the interest and time, but not the background, then pair yourself with someone who has the technical background to help you around such problems. You can find people like this, willing to help on odesk.com.</p>
<h3>The Savvy Student &#8211; Abhors the McDonald&#8217;s Job and Looking for the second Income.</h3>
<p>Our student, who in theory, has all the time in the world ( yes, i know u don&#8217;t think so but its almost true ), is best off to start a free online marketing course while doing article writing at either guru.com, rentacoder.com, elance.com or odesk.com ( the last is my fav ).</p>
<p>She or he can conceivably write 500 word articles for $3-30 a piece and work on their own affiliate site while following free online lessons. This path will work. Writing 20 such articles can produce 60-600 dollars that can be re-invested in one&#8217;s own niche website.</p>
<p>McDonald&#8217;s or a fast food franchise can be a great place to save some money for re-investment purposes, so don&#8217;t diss it. Many 3rd world kids would love to be able to start with this and move further.</p>
<p>A few websites like this with a steady $100-150 a month revenue can be flipped on Flippa.com for amounts up to a thousand dollars or more each. It all starts with a step. Yes, just one.</p>
<h3>Our Busy Stay At Home Mom</h3>
<div id="attachment_14969" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 269px"><a href="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/mom-at-home-earning-money.jpeg"><img class="size-full wp-image-14969" title="mom-at-home-earning-money" src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/mom-at-home-earning-money.jpeg" alt="Can a mom at home with little time to spare earn money from home? I would wager, not very much and not very likely. Time is the key." width="259" height="194" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Mom at home trying to earn a bit of spare cash.</p></div>
<p>Our mom at home, is in the most difficult position because her spare time is at a premium and spare time is what one needs in order to make things work.</p>
<p>Please forget the surveys, most of those simply don&#8217;t work or are enriching an affiliate like me at your expense.</p>
<p>Why is she in the most difficult position? Because time is money or can be turned into money and she has very little time. If she is a uni grad and has some existing online skills in research and writing, then she might very efficiently use the same path that younger students use and ghost write for marketing companies and other firms on odesk.com or elancer.com or other places mentioned herein.</p>
<p>However, if she can&#8217;t write or feels that the kids don&#8217;t give her enough time, then her path is through investment and usually her initial problem was that she didn&#8217;t have much of that in the first place which is why she was looking for a second income. The problem isn&#8217;t hopeless, its just more difficult if one does not have the time.</p>
<p>When Benjamin Franklin said that &#8220;Time is Money&#8221;, he perhaps had no idea just how everlasting that phrase would be.</p>
<p>For the student and Moms and Retirees &#8211; Before buying anything at all, enroll with <a rel="nofollow" title="Free Online Course" href="http://trevorweir.com/go/2346er/" target="_blank">Eric&#8217;s Free Online Courses over here</a>.</p>
<p>When you think you have something to invest, two of the most respected Gurus in the industry are Howard of &#8220;Howie&#8217;s Apprentice&#8221; fame and Gauher Chaudhry.</p>
<p>I have met Gauher and more importantly spent several days with some of his students last year. Some of them who followed Gauher&#8217;s courses exactly as he described are averaging about 5-20,000 monthly and working about 60-90 minutes a day.</p>
<p>Others, whom I didn&#8217;t meet at the last meeting in Toronto are someties doing over $80,000 monthly. And a few who don&#8217;t claim to be Gauher&#8217;s students but whom were at Gauher&#8217;s Toronto class last year are running their own little empires and making several million monthly. His program is called payperclickformula.com and yes, there were tire kickers there who hadn&#8217;t made a penny but whom spend money on every show, every product and every launch.</p>
<p>I have bought about 5 tools off of Howard in the past 5 years. While in his backend members only forum, I have met several newbies who became successful following Howard&#8217;s methodologies and tools. Most people who are professional use a number of Howie&#8217;s tools because they tend to work rather well. So online agencies and others who sell online services to major companies also use some of Howie&#8217;s tools.</p>
<p>Once a year, Howie opens up and offers to fully mentor about 20-50 students. But its not cheap and for that reason, I would advise even those who can pony up a few thousand, not to do this before going thru some of the cheaper online courses available. Howie&#8217;s stuff is only for those want to rock their internet efforts like that Jamaican runner Bolt. Howie&#8217;s current offering is <a rel="nofollow" href="http://trevorweir.com/go/sdfgad/">Easy Authority Sites</a> and I am on the inside looking at it now and this one is a keeper.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>TVShack &#8211; Where is it now ?</h1>
<div style="font-size: 1.4em;">
<p>An interesting phenomena has developed over the past two decades. We all <a rel="nofollow" href="http://af4efsu64eznhsdiyqp5v1xm5g.hop.clickbank.net/">love to watch Free TV</a>. Ok that wasn&#8217;t news unless you live on a far moon of the planet Neptune.</p>
<p>Well, at least, I thought that organisms there wouldn&#8217;t know but a nerdy friend told me that we are saturating them with radio waves carrying time honored programs like &#8230;like, ok I&#8217;m not about to tell you what I watch, ok. I know you spend inordinate amounts of time on <span style="font-weight: bold">TV Shack</span> but that doesn&#8217;t mean I have to tell you where and how I spend my own.</p>
<p>Five years ago, pundits ( whom their bosses actually call stock Analysts ) told us that TV was dead because the internet was taking over. And the raw reality is that people actually like talking and socializing far more than they like simply watching as evidenced by the growth of this weird exception to the social network rule &#8211; <a rel="nofollow" href="http://tvshack.org.uk"><span style="font-style: italic">tv shack</span></a>.</p>
</div>
<p><span id="more-6305"></span></p>
<h2>TVshack &#8211; More popular than even the BBC ? You&#8217;re kidding right ?</h2>
<div style="font-size: 1.2em;">Which is why in hindsight, social networking sites like Facebook, Friendster, Bebo,Hi5 and  others shouldn&#8217;t really be a surprise to anyone except the aliens on the far side of Neptune who are probably not getting friended, facebooked or choked by requests for farmville.</p>
<p>So, it may come as a surprise to some that contrary to what I just wrote, there is a</p>
<div id="attachment_6306" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 310px"><a rel="nofollow" href="http://af4efsu64eznhsdiyqp5v1xm5g.hop.clickbank.net/"><img class="size-medium wp-image-6306" title="TV-Shack" src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/TV-Shack-300x134.png" alt="tv shack" width="300" height="134" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">More People looking for tv shack than the BBC or whitehouse</p></div>
<p>significant group of people who think just the opposite. Yeah, you know who you are.</p>
<p>In fact, they are so significant that at many times last year this group of people watching free TV programs, movies etc at <span style="text-decoration: underline">TV Shack</span> were more than double the number of people at one of the most popular websites in the world &#8211; bbc.co.uk or the venerable american whitehouse which appears intent on closing down the tvshack.net and tvshack.co sites nearly as quickly as they reorganize and get themselves going.</p>
<h3>TVshack popularity &#8211; show me the proof !</h3>
<p>In the graph above, the constant orange line that looks like a heart beat is the venerable ever present bbc.co.uk representing the british broadcasting group who is literally still heard all over the world &#8211; most americans wouldn&#8217;t really know about this but for those in the commonwealth the BBC is legend, even if some of us dont like it.</p>
<div id="attachment_6310" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 160px"><a rel="nofollow" href="http://af4efsu64eznhsdiyqp5v1xm5g.hop.clickbank.net/"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-6310" title="tvshackSmallVille" src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/tvshackSmallVille-150x150.jpg" alt="TV Shack" width="150" height="150" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">TV shack web image</p></div>
<p>The bright yellow line represents annual interest in whatever happens in the whitehouse.</p>
<p>The rebel blue line that started in mid 2007 represents all of us TV shack afficionados who started visiting this site in huge numbers in 2008 and who are showing a significant addiction going into 2009 and 2010.</p>
<p>Our addiction for tvshack.net is in fact so strong that even though it is officially ( if temporarily ) shutdown, there are more of us looking for tvshack.cc, tvshack.net and tv shack variants than there are god fearing citizens watching the ever present ever boring BBC.</p>
<h3>TVShack.net takes on myspace</h3>
<p>If you look at the new graph below, you will see that in Nov you guys and gals out there looking for TV Shack and variations of the TV-shack keywords almost touched in traffic the massive traffic moving through myspace.com</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t believe me ! Take a look below at the google trend chart.</p>
<div id="attachment_6307" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 562px"><a rel="nofollow" href="http://131f3o22xm6gbpc9umoc33-stp.hop.clickbank.net/"><img class="size-full wp-image-6307" title="Tvshack" src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/Tvshack.jpg" alt="TV shack" width="552" height="245" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">TV shack Phenomena. Go gals go ... You know the Feds can&#39;t stop yah, ha ha</p></div>
<p>Ok, enough about tv shack. The quintessential question at the moment is where is the content for tvshack now.</p>
<p>The US feds have put a big ugly looking graphic up on the tvshack.net site which essentially says that they have taken it over.</p>
<p>So, where is TVShack ?</p>
<p>Where will it show up next ?</p>
<p>Yeah, we think we know, but don&#8217;t think we are going to make it that easy for just anyone to find out.</p>
<div id="attachment_6312" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 285px"><a rel="nofollow" href="http://131f3o22xm6gbpc9umoc33-stp.hop.clickbank.net/"><img class="size-full wp-image-6312" title="tvshackpeople" src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/tvshackpeople.jpg" alt="tvshack - tv shack.net" width="275" height="183" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">TVShack oh where oh where are you ?</p></div>
<p>It was rumoured that TVShack had paired up with Jersylicious, but the truth is that we simply don&#8217;t know how much fact is in that rumour &#8211; and perhaps we should encourage you not to repeat that since TVshack is playing hide and go seek at the moment.</p>
<p>Its also heavily rumoured that a someone knows where your favorite tvshack is now hanging out but you have to sign up to get that information because its not just being given to just anyone you know.</p>
<div style="font-size: 1.6em; font-color: red;">Sign up to get <a rel="nofollow" href="http://tvshack.org.uk">tv shack information here</a></div>
<p>.</p>
<p>So as the venerable Spock would say TvShack &#8220;Live Long and Prosper&#8221;.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>Make Money Online</h1>
<div style="font-size: 1.4em;" mce_style="font-size: 1.4em;">
<p>This isn&#8217;t going to be an article about how to <span style="font-weight: bold"><a href="http://trevorweir.com/14966/internet-marketing-faces-free-paid/">make money online</a></span>. I think my website trevorweir.com has hundreds of those types of articles on it already. So if you&#8217;re aim here is that you really want the truth about how this is done, check out the last paragraph on this page. Yes, that&#8217;s right, I whole heartedly give you permission to skip the entire story and just get to the making money online part.</p>
<div class="mceTemp" draggable="">
<dl id="attachment_6280" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 228px;">

<p>But to be fair, you would be missing the best parts because this article is totally NOT about the <span style="text-decoration: underline"><a href="http://trevorweir.com/14966/internet-marketing-faces-free-paid/">make money online</a></span> genre. </p>
<p> It&#8217;s primarily about a young man named Gauher Chaudry and his two day closed room presentation at the Holiday Inn airport hotel in Toronto, two weeks ago.  </p>
<p>The topic was not <a href="http://trevorweir.com/14966/internet-marketing-faces-free-paid/">make money online</a>, but it should have been. The actual topic was about optimization of the sales funnel used in either Cost Per Action or Direct Sales online.  </p>
<p>Prior to attending the two day seminar, I would have considered myself an expert on the sales funnel optimization process simply because I have helped a number of companies to bring their cost of customer acquisition down from amounts of over a hundred dollars to more reasonably amounts like 28-35 dollars.</p>
<p><span id="more-6277"></span>

<p><img src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wordpress/img/trans.gif" mce_src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wordpress/img/trans.gif" alt="make money online"class="mceWPmore mceItemNoResize" title="More..."></p>
<h2>How to Shake the money Tree &#8211; Make Money Online</h2>
<p>Business.ca was one such company. In a rare move, I was even able to get clients for a limousine company, enchantedlimo at the pretty ridiculously cheap price of 2.13 per lead from Google itself ( who if you are in the business of buying direct traffic from Google, tends to be quite expensive )  However, after Gauher, got into the nitty gritty of the seminar it became obvious that my knowledge while foundationally sound, was only 85% of the big picture. And if there is anything that I have learned about this <a href="http://trevorweir.com/14966/internet-marketing-faces-free-paid/">make money online</a> business is that 85 or even 90% doesn&#8217;t cut it in competitive areas.</p>
<h3>Offline success not always translating online &#8211; Make Money Online</h3>
<p>I have friends who are making a killing ( 5-6 million pounds annually ) selling a particular widget, but every time they attempt to take that same set of well known widgets into the online format they get to the 85th percentile and due to internal issues simply are unable to get to the 95th percentile where one is firmly in the money.  So, it was with quite some interest that I listened as Gauher first went over the well known calculations that almost all <a href="http://trevorweir.com/14966/internet-marketing-faces-free-paid/">make money online</a> marketers understand. These calculations &#8211; for the uninitiated &#8211; are</p>
<ul>
<li>Traffic divided by Signup numbers = pre-Conversion rate</li>
<li>Pre-Conversion numbers divided by Double optin Rate = Lead Generation Numbers</li>
<li>Lead Generation Numbers given 100 messages across a 365 day span should convert to 1-3 USD per email value.</li>
</ul>
<p>So, there is nothing too new to the <a href="http://trevorweir.com/14966/internet-marketing-faces-free-paid/">make money online</a> crowd in that formula. In fact, if I used acrynyms familiar to this genre such as CTR, EPM, CPM etc. the formula could be described far more succinctly. So, as I said, nothing too new in this at all.</p>
<h3>Traffic Formula &#8211; Make Money Online</h3>
<p>The reality of the aforementioned situation is that you spend approximately $100 for lets say 10 cent traffic and get 1000 people to your front door. Perhaps 10% of them convert to your</p>
<div class="mceTemp" draggable="">
<dl id="attachment_6282" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 216px;">
<dt class="wp-caption-dt"><a href="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/makeMoneyOnline-02.jpg" mce_href="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/makeMoneyOnline-02.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-6282" title="makeMoneyOnline-02" src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/makeMoneyOnline-02.jpg" mce_src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/makeMoneyOnline-02.jpg" alt="Make Money Online - CPA" width="206" height="244"></a><br mce_bogus="1"></dt>
<dd class="wp-caption-dd">Making Money From Home</dd>
</dl>
</div>
<p>email list and you lose another 2% to the double optin mechanism. So, now you have a $100 spend and 8% of the 1000 visitors actually get on your email list. You now have 80 people to market to and you hope that sometime in the next year several of them will find your products or affiliate products interesting enough to make you back the $100 that you just spent on them.  But if you are an online marketer using google adwords, you know that whats wrong with what I just wrote above is that you are NOT typically going to get 10 cent traffic from Google in the <a href="http://trevorweir.com/14966/internet-marketing-faces-free-paid/">make money online</a> area. The clicks from Google for this market segment are typically 1-9 dollars, not 10 cents.  Even though Yahoo advertising ( now Bing ) is cheaper than Google, you will still not typically get 10 cent traffic clicks from any of these 3 search engine giants. But those of us at Gauher&#8217;s seminar in the <a href="http://trevorweir.com/14966/internet-marketing-faces-free-paid/">make money online</a> genre or who have taken Gauher&#8217;s pay per click or pay per view courses in the past, do know how to get qualified&nbsp; 3-5 cent clicks, so you should have been there. It wouldn&#8217;t be fair for people to spend $2-3000 flying in from all over the world to learn all that and have me spill the beans for absolutely nothing in a public blog.</p>
<h3>Shock us Twice Over &#8211; Make Money Online</h3>
<p>It was what Gauher said next that had even experienced big name online marketers in the crowd sitting up straight and paying significant attention.  Gauher said, &#8220;<i>What if I could show you all how to actually make money while building your list?</i>&#8221;  </p>
<p>Yes, Gauher said, <i>while building the list</i>, not waiting for several weeks or months afterwards as many of us had been doing.  In truth, since I was looking elsewhere at the time this was said, the full import of it was somewhat lost on my poor brain for a few minutes.  </p>
<h4>The power of the autoresponder &#8211; make money online<br /></h4>
<p>Gauher, then pointed to Jonathon Von Clute, author of LPGEN2, and asked him to verify if he hadn&#8217;t in fact done something similar quite recently. Jonathon took the physical mic and took a few minutes to explain to many of us in the <a href="http://trevorweir.com/14966/internet-marketing-faces-free-paid/">make money online</a> niche, as to how he had done that. In Jonathon&#8217;s example, it appeared as if he was actually making more immediate money building the list than he was in paying for the traffic for that created the list.  </p>
<p>That&#8217;s quite a sweet position to be in since it means that if you can get paid weekly for sales generated on 30% margins you can turn over the initial funds almost 5 times in a month. </p>
<p>Just to be sure that you understand this &#8211; Turning over a $1,000 traffic investment at 130% each week for 4 weeks gives you 1000*1.3*1.3*1.3*1.3 or a very healthy $2856 the first month and by month 3, the number is not far from 18,000. Lots of people in our little meeting were turning over more than triple this 18,000 on a monthly basis in the <a href="http://trevorweir.com/14966/internet-marketing-faces-free-paid/">make money online</a> genre. </p>
<p> Between Gauher and Jonathon, they went on to describe a truly virtuous circle where immediate cash to fuel further traffic acquisitions could be recycled. I was there with Craig, ceo of jungle-media. Craig had flown in from england and was enjoying a bit of very nippy Toronto weather, but even his eyes went quite round as Gauher began to explain the tools necessary and the business math behind the madness in this <a href="http://trevorweir.com/14966/internet-marketing-faces-free-paid/">make money online</a> niche.  </p>
<h4>Universal applicability &#8211; Make Money Online<br /></h4>
<p>Many of the concepts explained could have been applied to about 90% of the businesses online. A few of them bordered on being either gray hat or something that ninnies would consider to be slightly intrusive, but the results speak for themselves. Long time marketers in the <a href="http://trevorweir.com/14966/internet-marketing-faces-free-paid/">make money online</a> genre have to their intense surprise driven their sales up to 300% higher by using just one of the major technologies explained by Gauher at the seminar.  </p>
<p>Several additional concepts were explained in detail and as a hint I can tell you that several of them involved exactly what one did or how one handled the first sets of messages in the autoresponder series.  The autoresponder series is the marketing engine and some would say the lifeblood of a &#8220;<a href="http://trevorweir.com/14966/internet-marketing-faces-free-paid/">make money online</a>&#8221; methodology. </p>
<h4>Relationship Building Thru Autoresponders &#8211; Make Money Online<br /></h4>
<p>For those that dont know what an autoresponder series is, it is a series of email messages that automatically go out to a user who gets on the list.  Most of us quickly burn out our lists by attempting to sell to the list prior to building a relationship and there are two very contrasting thoughts about this which I won&#8217;t go into here. </p>
<p>I would prefer to give value and build relationships with my list prior to letting them know about the latest set of tools to aid them on their way.  If a marketer in the <a href="http://trevorweir.com/14966/internet-marketing-faces-free-paid/">make money online</a> genre comes off as being pushy or simply looking out for their own interests on an ongoing basis, then subscribers slowly drop off the list or stop answering the email.  See part II in this series <a href="http://trevorweir.com/14966/internet-marketing-faces-free-paid/">make money online</a> for what next happened at the TLC seminar.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Seo without backlinking part 2. What are votes? When are they needed? Can we rank in the top 10 without them? If so, how?]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>Seo Without backlinking</h1>
<div id="attachment_420" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 117px"><a href="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/nomanisanisland.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-420" title="nomanisanisland" src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/nomanisanisland.jpg" alt="seo without backlinking" width="107" height="101" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Can A Page Rank without Backlinks ?</p></div>
<p>In part 1 of this 3 part series, I expounded on the theory that Google, Yahoo, Ask, Bing and others have to walk a pretty polarized line when it comes to what results to show when a user enters a search term.</p>
<p>I am going to call this term, &#8220;<span style="font-weight: bold">Seo without backlinking</span>&#8220;, my own little terminology which might be easier to the non-technical &#8211; &#8220;Getting elected without a vote&#8221;</p>
<p>Its well known in the political world that &#8220;He who has the most votes wins&#8221; and the most votes is simply the most people saying &#8220;Yea&#8221; at the right time. In online parlance, votes are links from other sites and when you win the vote, generally you get shown in the search listings. ( This isn&#8217;t 100% true but the world isn&#8217;t perfect and this is true enough for this particular example )</p>
<h2>Vote Getting Spectrum &#8211; Seo without backlinking</h2>
<p>What we, who are in the &#8220;vote getting spectrum&#8221; tend to forget ( all too easily, I&#8217;m afraid ) is that Google, Bing and others owe it to the small mom and pop businesses and smaller regional manufacturers to show their sites whenever and wherever it looks like it might be the best fit for a user search. In a perfect world, the site with the most positive votes for queries in that sector should place in the top results on a very frequent basis.</p>
<p>This line becomes difficult for Google and others to balance due to the fact that those of us who know &#8220;how to Vote&#8221; oftentimes use many hours each day devoted to the automatic voting concept on behalf of our customers. Because of this difficulty, I am proposing that Google and others are already employing algorithms that help rankings via a type of <span style="font-style: italic">seo without backlinking</span>.</p>
<h3>Seo Specialists &#8211; seo without backlinking</h3>
<p>Each seo specialist might deal with 10-20 clients during the year and thus in certain industries or online sectors, thousands of seo specialists may be helping in the vote concept in literally 20,000 or more businesses  who are getting votes that didn&#8217;t come naturally.</p>
<p>For these thousands of seo specialists who make their living</p>
<div id="attachment_6262" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 275px"><a href="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/neptunePlanet.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-6262" title="seo no backlinks" src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/neptunePlanet.jpg" alt="seo without backlinking" width="265" height="190" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Seo Specialists Practicing around the planet of Neptune</p></div>
<p>at getting votes, its fiendishly difficult for them to accept that Google simply doesn&#8217;t like what they are doing and wishes that they would practice their well honed craft up on a geo-orbiting space station somewhere around the far side of Neptune.</p>
<p>For the small town business who has no clue how to get their site to the top of the listing, there is no way that they are realistically going to even rank against even a moderately incompetent seo specialist.</p>
<p>They simply won&#8217;t and this is not in the best interest of the search engines. These smaller business don&#8217;t know even understand what seo is and as for seo with backlinking or without backlinks, they are pretty well clueless and they are the salt of the earth. They are probably more than 99.9% of the businesses on the web.</p>
<h3>The Conundrum</h3>
<p>So, the conundrum is, what will Google do about this? For more information on <a title="search engine optimization - can it be done without backlinks or backlinking" href="http://trevorweir.com/6171/rockstar-seo-backlinks/">seo without backlinks</a> please read my former article.</p>
<p>Where is the Proof ? &#8211; Ranking without backlinks</p>
<p>The former article, seo without backlinks, here on this site, ranked in Google, Yahoo and Bing within 3 hours of writing it. When I say, &#8220;ranked&#8221;, I don&#8217;t mean it was merely indexed, I mean it showed up in the top 5 search places within the 3 hours mentioned.</p>
<p>Because this is a blog, it was on the front page of this site, which carries a significant amount of domain trust and it was also on its own page.</p>
<p>For more proof of search engine optimization without backlinking &#8211; check out this same article written Nov 18th, it should rank in the top 10 of Google, today for this term &#8220;<span style="text-decoration: underline">seo without backlinking</span>- Yes today, not tomorrow! I am simply that confident.</p>
<h3>Ranking Internationally &#8211; Seo without backlinking</h3>
<p>So, there is no doubt that a page can rank internationally on all Google Datacenters, Bing and Yahoo, sometimes in minutes and obviously without any of the backlinks that seo specialists love to tell customers that they absolutely must have.</p>
<p>So, again, how really did this happen and what is the mechanism that Google, Bing, Ask and other search engines use to determine what should rank and what should not.</p>
<p>Most of seo professionals are still crying loud and clear the mechanism is backlinks, so lets see how we resolve that.</p>
<p>To get to the heart of how this happened we would need to look at what I said in the former article.  Most small businesses are getting websites now. Hairdressers, gas stations, mechanics, spas, etc. Perhaps as many as one in three or one in five businesses in your town have an internet presence of some sort.</p>
<h3>Local Search &#8211; Seo without backlinking</h3>
<p>If you live in Napanee, Ontario ( which is where  famous girl <a href="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/pizza.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-6263" title="pizza" src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/pizza-150x150.jpg" alt="seo without backlinking"hspace="10" width="150" height="150" align="right" /></a>singer lived ) and you are searching for pizza, what are you most likely to type?</p>
<p>If you have never done this before the following sequence is likely.</p>
<ul>
<li>Pizza ( Which will bring back some National brands )</li>
<li>Pizza, Napanee ( Which will bring Pizza stores in the town )</li>
<li>Pizza specials, Napanee ( Which might tell you about 2 for 1 specials in your area )</li>
</ul>
<p>Every pizza store worth its salt that has Napanee anywhere on its website, should show up on this search and some may be advertising 2 for 1 specials if they have any sense ( and others will be dominated by national brands who don&#8217;t care to enable their local stores &#8211; ha ha )</p>
<p>This same logic applies to hairdressers, repair shops, auto sales etc.</p>
<p>When people search broadly and get the wrong results, they narrow their search.</p>
<div id="attachment_6264" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 160px"><a href="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/fishAndChips.jpg"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-6264" title="fishAndChips" src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/fishAndChips-150x150.jpg" alt="seo without backlinking" hspace="10" width="150" height="150" align="right" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Searching Google For Fish And Chips</p></div>
<p>After all, if you are in Oxford looking for a fish and chips shop, do you really want to see national brands or very well seo&#8217;d website like the over zealous &#8220;mom and pop chippy shop&#8221; who hired an seo expert in order to show up all over england, instead of their cozy little place in Wiggan.</p>
<p>More often than not, the answer is you are looking for things to buy or review that are near you.</p>
<p>When you are doing research and want the best answer globally, then Google tends to give you a few choices.</p>
<ul>
<li>Highly respected sites that many people have voted for, visit frequently etc.</li>
<li>A few youtube videos</li>
<li>Current News Feeds concerning your search phrase</li>
<li>Images that have text describing your search phrase</li>
<li>Review sites that are respected based on votes or backlinks</li>
<li>A bunch of alternate search terms that are similar to what you just typed in</li>
</ul>
<p>So, now we understand how many of us narrow our search down but that doesn&#8217;t really answer the question about how pages on a hairdressers site can rank in the top results of Google, Yahoo or Bing particularly if friends who vote for a page, put a link back from their facebook or twitter account without using the keywords that the hairdresser wants to be ranked on or found for.</p>
<p>Twitter and Facebook, like many other social sites currently use nofollow tags which in theory means that links from these sites dont pass any link love forward, but they might pass domain trust and when or if Google decides to change this, its likely that they won&#8217;t be telling us overtly.</p>
<p>But the truth is that mechanisms such as twitter, facebook, linkin, delicious, digg, stumbleon and other social bookmarking sites are the most available methods for the average user to express pleasure or displeasure with a particular site despite possible abuse by seo people.</p>
<h3>The truth is: If the regional hairdresser&#8217;s site uses</h3>
<ul>
<li>Unique titles having her town in the title, to describe her services</li>
<li>Unique articles ( not copied from elsewhere )</li>
<li>Her address prominently in one or more places</li>
<li>Google places ( this one takes direct action but is the most obvious with the highest returns )</li>
<li>And does NOT hire and seo</li>
<li>And gets just one link from facebook or linkin or twitter or a local business association</li>
</ul>
<p>Then it will be found regionally for her/his aforementioned town or city.</p>
<p><a href="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/hairdresser.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-6265" title="hairdresser" src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/hairdresser-150x150.jpg" alt="seo ranking without backlinking" hspace="10" width="150" height="150" align="left" /></a>If the hairdresser took 10 minutes and applied for Google local business now known as Google spaces, then its a guarantee that it will be found sooner or later by clients.</p>
<p>If you are following this discussion and want to be registered so that you can be found contact me at trevor weir ( @) gmail.com ( without the spaces )</p>
<p>If your business is in the US, we can apply the google yellow tag to your business listing which will give you absolutely phenomenal results.</p>
<p>So, we have determined that the hairdresser can be found locally without seo help.</p>
<h3>Getting found in the serps &#8211; seo without backlinking</h3>
<p>But would it be found county wide or statewide or province wide?</p>
<p>No, probably not and there isn&#8217;t a real good reason for that most times.</p>
<p>And would it be found nationally? &#8230; As in a search not including its town?</p>
<p>Again, the short answer is NO, why should a hairdresser want to be found nationally when it likely can&#8217;t offer services nationally?</p>
<p>Hence, seo without backlinks for businesses like this comprise only getting their website up with unique title tags, unique articles and a mention of their business address with a google local business listing.</p>
<p>So, lets forget local search. You have decided your junk needs to be found nationally.</p>
<p>Well for that my friend, you need votes and depending on the competitiveness of &#8220;your junk&#8221; you may need an awful lot of votes.</p>
<p>Why votes? Because a lot of votes coming back to a site as backlinks represents varying degrees of trust being conferred on the site receiving the backlinks.</p>
<div id="attachment_6271" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 160px"><a href="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/wikipediaLogo.jpg"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-6271" title="wikipediaLogo" src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/wikipediaLogo-150x150.jpg" alt="ranking without backlinking" width="150" height="150" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Why Does Wikipedia show up in so many search Results ?</p></div>
<p>This is how a new article in Wikipedia, that is quite new ( as in a few minutes old with no backlinks ) can outrank articles on other trusted sites.</p>
<p>The answer is because its root domain, Wikipedia or about.com or amazon.com or Ebay.com or Facebook.com has an enormous amount of backlinks pointing at it. These sites have over 80 Million backlinks, so articles put on these sites that have unique titles tend to rank extremely well on not only Google but Yahoo, Ask and other search engines.</p>
<p>So, we have said two contrasting things, huh?</p>
<p>We have stated categorically that you can rank a unique page with a unique title without backlinks.</p>
<p>Then we stated that some pages that rank internationally have domains that have a bunch of backlinks.</p>
<p>So, where is the truth? Do we need votes or don&#8217;t we ?</p>
<div id="attachment_6272" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 160px"><a href="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/voting.jpg"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-6272" title="Showing up without backlinks" src="http://trevorweir.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/voting-150x150.jpg" alt="search engine optimization without backlinks" width="150" height="150" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Does your site need Votes or Not ?</p></div>
<p>It is, simply in both statements. Regional stores or local businesses having websites may not need more than a few backlinks to simply show Google that they are there, in order for their pages to rank on a regional or local basis.</p>
<p>If  however, you are an insurance company or regional ranking is simply not good enough, there are very few ways that your key pages can rank for competitive terms without a strategy that gets votes votes and more votes on an ongoing basis.</p>
<p>Stay tuned for part 3 of seo without backlinking and voting for yourself &#8211; is that like cheating ?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A lot of professionals on the Internet will tell you cPanel Hosting is one of the great web hosting ideas available in today&#8217;s market. It doesn&#8217;t matter if you&#8217;re a beginner or seasoned pro, this control panel is completely automated and presents you with a completely automated platform that is just a matter of point-and-click. If you&#8217;ve been hearing about the success of cPanel, here are some answers about why it&#8217;s so popular!</p>
<p>Ease of operation is garnering cPanel a lot of praise. Quite a few of resellers doing web hosting are encouraging their clients to choose cPanel for a myriad of reasons. Most important is the fact cPanel is easy to understand and use, no matter what level of web hosting experience might be. If you have no clue about hosting to start with, you&#8217;ll have access to video tutorials that will help you be up and running quickly. You can learn more by watching and then doing it this way.</p>
<p>You have a lot of features with cPanel, such as managing your MySQL data bases, FTP accounts, domain names, even using the file manager for uploading any of your files, too. When it comes to other control panels, none of them can compete with cPanel. In comparison with other control panels it offers a lot more features, as well. When you&#8217;re shopping around for a hosting reseller that&#8217;s cPanel-based, you&#8217;ll want to know they&#8217;re able to give you a complete (or close to it) cPanel version. Be aware there are companies offering hosting accounts that are free, but their members receive a much more limited version.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s more, cPanel can give you modular addons like SiteReptile, RV SiteBuilder, and the script autoinstaller Fantastico De Luxe, making it a very versatile and feature-laden control panel that can provide for any client. There are more addons than that to choose from, but novices and moderate professionals can use them easily to give their hosting account the biggest benefit possible.</p>
<p>cPanel&#8217;s success has not been by accident, but became of it offers so much more than other control panels. Don&#8217;t be discouraged if you find the interface a bit overwhelming or think it&#8217;s too complicated for a beginner, help is available. You&#8217;ll have all kinds of support and easy to get through formats: guides online, video and audio tutorials, and others.</p>
<p>Unless you want extra special management controls. We&#8217;ll also assume that you only want one website, but if you plan to create more in the future. No wonder they are able to offer special deals to new subscribers with all the bells and whistles. <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.dailyhosting.net">Bachelor Website</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>new clients can be tricky to get and tricky to hold on to until they become established. A lot of people will try a service once and be very happy with it but will not follow up with another booking. Sales Tactics For <span style="font-weight: bold">Small Window Cleaning</span> Companies can be very effective.</p>
<p>A window cleaning firm could go and talk directly to new clients to generate interest. This could be either businesses or private homes. If you van get talking to someone who seems interested then why not offer a quote as it is possible they may find it less than they thought. Try to get satisfied customers to write you a quick reference, and take photos of buildings, with the owners permission that you already clean. Make up an attractive and professional looking file with all these details along with copies of your current insurance.</p>
<p>Make sure that you have some professional looking business cards to give out, and if you have given them a quote ask if you can contact them at a later date to see if they are interested in your service. You should appear neat, clean and courteous when dealing with prospective clients and should address them respectfully.</p>
<p>You could take a quick peek at their windows before you go in, and then you can talk about how your service will improve their business or home. If you offer additional seasonal services such as gutter cleaning then be sure to stress how important this is for the upkeep of a building. Point out that you are fully insured and properly trained to carry out such awkward tasks.</p>
<p>You could also advertise in the local papers or arrange to have flyers put into local papers. This approach can work quite well. Word it as if you are a very popular and well established local firm that has a few openings for extra clients.</p>
<p>Once they contact you and you have given them a quote then why not offer them a discount for their third or fourth window clean. Offering it a bit later down the line may be enough to get them into the habit of using you. They will be happy as it is like being rewarded for being a loyal client.</p>
<p>Should you have any long established clients then why not run a campaign offering them a free window clean if they introduce somebody new to you. Make sure it says in the small print that the new client has to use you for a certain number of times. It is all about creating a habit, as a lot of people may be satisfied with your services but get out of the habit of using you. Sales tactics for <span style="font-style: italic">small window cleaning</span> companies can work.</p>
