Free Publicity.

A quick note to share something very cool that I just discovered...

I came upon AmericanTowns.com and realized that I could promote my online activities for FREE in their 'Community Corner' section.

As it turns out, you can either pay for a business listing (only $139.99 to start) or do what I did and essentially post a free press release. But here's the best part: you can choose to have your press release distributed to MANY print media outlets in your community (I selected at least 100 print publications).

Registration is free. Enter your zip code and you're on your way!

Anyway, here's the link to my press release. I'll let you know if it gets picked up by any print editors.

Search Engine Strategies Expo

Big day yesterday. I was interviewed at the Search Engine Strategies trade show in New York City (see clip below). Also, tune into WebmasterRadio.fm for an interview I did with them at SES as well (not sure what time it will air but I think they'll be broadcasting yesterday's interviews throughout the day).

Worth Waiting for....

Today (OK, tonight—yeah, I had to work out a few things before putting this post together) is a very important day in our lives; important for you because I’m bringing you one GIANT step closer to realizing your dreams of online success. Important for me because I am about to extend a hand to you in a way I’ve never done before.

Here’s the story: over a year ago I was contacted by Jim MacKinley (‘nirvana man’) about a system he was working on that would make link exchanging easy to do (in case you don’t know, getting links to your site makes the search engines happy but it is also a pain to accomplish).

In any event, Jim came up with the right piece of software so I was excited to get started. Unfortunately, for me, the process of setting up his system to work with my website seemed too complicated and not worth the effort. Well, many months passed and I always had Jim on my radar because I knew he was always doing something to improve his system.

Good for me. Very good for you.

I finally reached out to Jim in January and had a great conversation with him and his partner, Steve. Both Steve and Jim got me up to speed on all the wonderful traffic generating tools they built into their product. It didn’t take long for me to commit some time and start kicking the tires at Web Marketing Concepts. For the past several weeks I have devoured everything about WMC and can honestly say that nothing in the Web marketing world has excited me as much as WMC.

Why? How?

In a nutshell, the WMC system will automatically create up to 5,000 unique search engine-friendly content pages (seen only by the search engines). Because your website will have so much content (which the search engines love to see), your site will rank very high (page one or two of search results) which will cause a flood of traffic.

In my last post, I hinted that pricing was still an issue and that I was trying to figure out how I could support you once you decided to buy the service. Well, I have answers to both those questions (and, by the way, you will buy the service—big budget/small budget, big business/small business, this is a no-brainer. This is, hands down, the most cost effective traffic building tool you will find. The only question is whether you will act in time to take advantage of my offer of personal support).

Okay, now let’s get down to business….

As I said previously, last year I spent $100,000 on pay per click advertising for ONE product and made almost $150,000. I would’ve happily paid Jim $75,000 for his traffic dream machine.

But guess what?

Jim is holding to his introductory pricing until he reaches 500 members.

I’m almost embarrassed to say but the price of WMC is just $29.95 per month. You’ve heard the phrase “it won’t last”? Well, this price won’t last…for two reasons: 1) Jim has huge bandwidth costs that he has to cover; and 2) once you (and everyone else) find out about WMC

Again, once WMC is out of beta (when Jim reaches only 500 memberships) the price is going to skyrocket...and early adopters, like you and me, will pay it gladly.

Truth be told, WMC has a bit of a learning curve attached to it. And that’s where my personal support comes in. I’m so committed to your success that, at this time, I’m willing to setup and install your account for no charge. Consider it a favor. Truthfully, this is the kind of offer you’re not likely to come across again for a very long time.

But here’s a problem….time. I don’t have a lot of it. So, my offer is good for the first 15 people who order WMC from this link and e-mail a copy of their order confirmation to me.

Listen, there’s a lot more for me to post about regarding WMC but I’ve got to be considerate of your time (and I’m about to fall asleep at the keyboard). Over the next couple of days I will be sharing with you my own step-by-step map to mastering WMC.

Jim will be able to charge whatever he wants. It’s that good.P.S. If you combine WMC with SBI, you'll be sitting pretty in a matter of months. If you don't know what I mean, you need to e-mail or call me (see the 'Call Me' button in the right panel ---->).

Cool Site's Super Search Tuesday

I try not to post any messages on the weekend but I woke up at 4 AM this morning with my head buzzing about Tuesday. You know that feeling when you're onto something really big and you can't wait to tell the whole world?

Anyway, I had a conversation with the developer of the search traffic generator (let's call it 'nirvana') that I'll be revealing on Tuesday. If I didn't know for myself, I'd think this guy is crazy (and, in fact, he is one of those 'obsessed' geniuses). The search traffic that his system is generating is mind boggling (I'm currently either testing or setting up 20 accounts for MYSELF in twenty different product categories). What's even more insane is the pricing that he's thinking of.

Worth $100,000 a year?

We won't know until Tuesday what the pricing will be but I can tell you this: last year I spent $100,000 on pay per click advertising for ONE product and made almost $150,000. Well, from the sounds of what 'nirvana man' is telling me, I will be paying a small fraction of that to get even MORE traffic.

I can't say anymore about pricing now because 'nirvana man' is struggling with the idea of making this system affordable for EVERYONE (he doesn't want to leave the small business owner out). On the other hand, he's starting to incur HUGE bandwidth costs (I'll explain why on Tuesday) which his current pricing barely covers. Since 'nirvana' is still in beta, 'nirvana man' has only charged his early testers a pittance of what the system is worth. Lucky for me.

Once 'nirvana' is out of beta (when he reaches only 500 memberships) the price is going to skyrocket...and members, like me, will pay it gladly. Thing is, no one knows what that price is going to be; I'm hearing anywhere from $997 to $4,997 per year (a sick bargain).

Just one warning: 'nirvana' is not a simple setup; I didn't jump aboard until a year after I was initially contacted by 'nirvana man' because the process seemed so daunting. When I finally realized that 'nirvana' had to be the #1 choice in my traffic tool kit, I spent 3 weeks learning it inside and out. I mention this because I may offer to setup 'nirvana' accounts at no cost for my Cool Site subscribers. I've got to think this through a little bit more before Tuesday.

OK, I'm off on a road trip until tomorrow night.

Have a great weekend wherever you are.
