(Series) – Just an Update on Everything
Hey Cashtactics.net readers! I just wanted to give you an update as to what is going on with the series. I know I haven’t written anything in a while but that’s because there really isn’t anything to write about at this point in time. But I do apologize for not keeping you in the loop sooner. I’ve been in the process for the last week or so moving into a new office building as well as moving in one of my employees and a business partner.
So here is your update to the series.
First thing I did a couple of weeks ago is I put the site together. Not just a bunch of random pages like it was before, but now the site is hooked up and working. The first page you hit is the squeeze page. We used aweber for the autoresponder. After they sign up for aweber they get pushed off to a secret tip. This secret tip should be good enough to keep them coming back for more. At the bottom of the secret tip they are presented with a link to the sales letter.
For this product we used paypal as the payment gateway. If you don’t know how to set that up you can ask in the members forum. I’ll be more than happy to jump in there and help you out. Anyways, after they purchase the product paypal will push them off to a thank you page. This thank you page should only have a little thank you message and another autoresponder form. This form will be for a different mailing list. Not the original list we had people sign up to before. This is how we separate our buyers from the rest of the group. Once they sign up they get pushed on to a page so that they can download their product.
VIDEO – Site Flipping for Profit
Here’s the webinar we had with Ryan Moran. I apologize for the audio issues. The first 8 minutes have no sound except mine… Weird I know… Then we started to pick up the audio.
If you have any questions feel free to jump into the members forum and ask away!
ENJOY!
OH HEY… Thank you Nick and Jesse for the audio. (Mine didn’t record Ryan’s half of the conversation.) I used their audio recording for this vid.
A New CashTactics Exclusive Series!
It’s the beginning of a new year and I wanted to start this off right for everyone.
While everyone is giving you BS posts on PPV marketing I’ll be taking you down a real road for profit! Let me explain some things first. I’ve been making a full time income from PPV for quite a while. If you have questions on PPV feel free to post them in the members forum. I’m not saying that you shouldn’t try PPV I’m just saying there are other more profitable ways to generate money. Unfortunately not everything you do with PPV will make you rich. Don’t buy into the hype of it all.
Over the next few weeks I’m going to cover a method for making money online that you can use for ANY niche! Best of all it is GUARANTEED to make you money. How many people can GUARANTEE you that you will make money. I’ll tell you what… If you follow this course and can’t make money after putting in some honest effort then I will pay back any and all expenses that you incur (just make sure to document everything that you do)
This method isn’t a one hit wonder that will die out in 2 weeks so you have to pump it back up and start all over again. I’m going to show you how to build a profitable online business.
I once paid $5,000 for what I’m about to teach you. So why am I going to give this away? Let’s just say that I am tired of all the bullshit that goes around online. I’m tired of people saying “HEY YOU CAN MAKE $14,597 A DAY WITH PPC”. While it may be true… You won’t start out making that much money. And most of the time the courses are full of holes.
9 marketing methods
In homage to the date today (9/9/09) I am going to post 9 of my favorite marketing methods. This list is in no particular order. I even threw in a little about offline marketing for your CPA offers. Who knows… Maybe I’ll even take some time over the next week to explain some of these methods for marketing.
- Pay Per Click- This is the most widely known method for Internet marketing. It is super easy to jump onto Google, Yahoo, or Bing, and create an advertisment. There are other networks that you can use as well. Don’t just stick with the big three. One of my most profitable campaigns ever came from a second tier search engine.
- Media Buying- You may or may not have heard of Media Buying before. It’s where you advertise banners on other websites, blogs, or forums. This can be one of the most profitable forms of advertising that I have ever seen. It can also kill your bank account if you don’t do it right. They key (as with any advertising) is to match a sites demographic with the banner you want to place.
- Social Networking- I’m sure we all have a facebook or myspace account. What about a twitter account? Anytime you can use your “friends” to make a quick buck you should give it a shot. Leveraging the power of the social networks can be very beneficial to your long term success. It’s all about the power of the “word”… word of mouth that is. What are other people saying about you?
- Mass Mailing- Not the spammy type of messages. I’m talking about building your own list. Or even renting a list from someone who has done the leg work for you. Of course it will be more profitable if you build the list yourself, however, you can always make money from someone elses list. Building a relationship with the reader is the #1 way to get them to buy what your selling!
Did you hear about Google’s NEW rule?
That’s right… Effective June 4th Google will no longer be protecting trademark terms. That means you can now bid on your favorite music artists, celebrities, and brands. This is HUGE if you run polls or even competing company offers. Here are my three favorite picks from the list of over 150 countries that Google will no longer investigate.
- United States (US)
- United Kingdom (UK)
- Canada
BAM That’s money right there. Unfortunately my #1 country isn’t on the list.

Click here for the article in Search Engine Journal!
Get those campaigns ready. It’s going to be a dirty fight to take over some of those trademarked terms!
You will need to remember to look at the original TOS for the offers that you are running. Some offers make their own rules and you will still need to follow their rules on bidding on trademarked terms.
Backlinks Are B-E-A-UTIFUL!
Before I blog about this please remember that not all backlinks are created equally. Not all backlinks are good. Not all backlinks are worth your time…ok… Remember that with proper SEO you can out do a site with 10,000 backlinks with a site that has 200 backlinks…
We all love backlinks. No really we do. I know I just got done telling you some stuff about backlinks up there in bold lettering… But still. This is a great technique that you can use. And I’m sure all of you can think of other uses for some of these tools I’m going to share with you.
This technique that I am going to show you will help you get some link juice from RSS feeds. It is basically a technique where you take an RSS feed and send it out to several different RSS Aggregators.
_____________________________________
- Jump over to RSS Mix <–click that….
- Add Several different RSS feeds to the list.
-
- Your Blog RSS Feed
- Your ezine article feed
- Your Social Bookmark site feeds
You can literally add anything to the RSS feed. Videos, podcasts, articles, whatever you want!
If you don’t have an RSS feed for your website then you need to head over to Dapper.net to create one from your existing content.These feeds should be in your niche and to YOUR sites. Don’t gather feeds from someone elses content. That would defeat the purpose of getting YOURSELF backlinks. - Click create. This will generate a new RSS feed. The new RSS feed is filled with the RSS feeds that you inserted. It basically combined everything for you and put it into one easy to use feed :)
- Jump over to RSS Aggregators and submit your new pumped up RSS feed!
Here is a list of sites you can use!
Bomb Or Dud?
I think some people would love to put a bullet in my head after I throw out this little gem. Take a look:
(Click To View Larger)
I would think that after talking about Yahoo Buzz and Google Trends we would develop another sense –>Foresight.
Foresight is critical when we are marketing upcoming events. While the Superbowl may not be showing up in the buzz index or the trends, you can bet a dollar to a doughnut (thanks Bob) that it will. Right now there is nobody there. I wonder what a Superbowl survey linked to a hot prize CPA offer zip or email submit would do? Better yet, right now would be excellent for a short blog littered with Adsense Superbowl ads?
Gaining Momentum For Your CPA Offers
If you take the shotgun approach with CPA then chances are that your throwing more crap at the wall than I am when it comes to finding profitable offers. However, since taking this approach I have found that I am getting lifetime valued prospects. For this to exercise I am going to assume that you already have a profitable offer. If you dont then then thats ok, I’ll help you out. Remember to think outside the box and remember what not to look for in an offer. I am also going to assume that since you have this wildly popular and PROFITABLE offer then you have gone ahead and set up your landing site/pages. If not, then again remember to read tips on how to optimize your page for a better quality score and cpa offers, keyword research and landing page setup. By then you will be rocking and rolling.
So we want to structure ourselves a thematic site based around the offer. Let’s use the ecards example from previous shall we? We can take a look at what we want to rank for. For this example I want my home page to rank for Ecards. However I may want to target other keywords as well. Now I setup my landing sites and pages on Wordpress because I have found that I can often get indexed and ranked for many obscure keywords. Knowing undisclosed details of over 50% of Google’s searches are unique, I never take the fact that since a keyword is NOT showing up in a search tool, does not mean it does not get searched or will get searched. Keep that little piece of advice on the backburner…it’s important.
