Unusual Link Cloaker: Is It Legal?

I have written many times in the past about the importance of “cloaking” affiliate links to prevent “commission hijacking”. By this I mean disguising your affiliate link so that people can’t see how to replace your affiliate link with theirs, thus depriving you of commissions. This is particularly important with well-known link structures, such as [...]

A Nice Little Freebie From A Fellow Brit!

Neil Shearing is, in my eyes, one of the “good guys” in internet marketing. And I’m not just saying that because he’s a fellow Brit! He’s open, he’s approachable - and he produces some good and original products.
One such product was his vaguely-named “Internet Success Spider” (”ISS”) - which tells you nothing about what it [...]

A Good Way To Create Instant Video Websites

Over a year ago I experimented with “Niche Video Site Builder”, software from J P Schoeffel, which generated complete websites from YouTube videos. It’s a little on the expensive side ($147), and quite tricky to set up. However, my then “virtual assistant” set up quite a few sites for me at LearningThroughVideo.com, and they’ve been [...]

A New Free “Twitter” Tool

Do you “Twitter”? If so, here’s a great new free online tool which, legally, can add significantly to the number of people who will see your “Tweets”:

Thanks to “Update” subscriber, Nadine, who posted the info in the Marketing Update Community
Incidentally, if you don’t yet have a Twitter account, you should get one from [...]

Turning Keyword Research Upside Down

This is something I’ve been meaning to tell you about for a few weeks. It’s yet another Google keyword research tool - but with a difference.
The well-known Google Keyword Research Tool:
https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal
.. spins off a large number of related keywords from a single word or phrase that you enter, along with estimated numbers of searches per [...]

Search Engine Optimization: Does SEO Elite Really Deliver?

Are you familiar with Brad Callen’s SEO Elite?  Let’s forget about the sales hype and talk about if and how this software can benefit you.  So what can SEO Elite do for you and your website? 
SEO Elite helps in one very important method of achieving high search engine rankings:  that of building link popularity, a [...]

How Not To Write An Email Subject Line

The “subject line” in a marketing email is very important. It can make the difference between an email being opened or not - depending on how much of a hurry the recipient is in. And these days, we’re all in a hurry, aren’t we?
There are a few “golden rules” about subject lines:

They should be short [...]

Don’t Do THIS!

There’s an internet marketing technique which goes like this:

Set up a “membership” site, and load it with some inexpensive freebies.
Create an internet marketing campaign along the lines of “Psst.. I can give you the back door entrance to this site“, and get affiliates / JV partners to send people to..
A bogus “thank you” page, which [...]

These Webmaster Tools DO Work!

Unlike WebToolsNow, Google’s Webmaster Tools work really well. No surprise there, then! There are big differences between “Webmaster Tools” and Google’s “Analytics”.
“Analytics” gives you detailed stats for all the pages on as many of your websites as you like. It analyses your site from the perspective of visitors - how many pages were viewed, [...]

A Great New Collection Of PLR Videos

This Is A Time-Sensitive Review
(see “Pricing” below)

I’m a great fan of Private Label Rights (”PLR”) materials - and I also like training videos. So naturally I was interested when I learnt that Ameer Salim was holding his second sale of PLR videos.
First, a word of warning about PLR videos in general. Just because you [...]
