Free No Fees Resource To Find Work From Home Jobs And No NOT MLM

Friday, October 31st, 2008

Before I get into sharing a tremendous potential money making resource I found yesterday, I’d like to ask one thing of you. If you have just a moment, please take a second and visit our newest online internet marketing strategies hubpage (this will open in a new window), and give us a (hopefully!) thumbs up (its down after the article itself in the “Share It” section), we’d really appreciate it. Thank you!

Now on to that great potential income/job resource! (more…)

Lather Up and Scour The Net

Monday, July 28th, 2008

Tonight, just about the time I’m thinking it’s time to call it a day, a friend from the Firestorm Forum recommended we take a look at Scour.

Though “new” it already has an Alexa ranking of just over 36,000 - and whether you follow Alexa or not it does show proof that other people are aware it exists :)

So what’s so great about Scour?

Our top priority is “what do we get out of it” (not greedy, just common business sense). Mostly we like to see our efforts reflected in increased visitors and lots of new attention from search engine spiders and bots. Building up those wonderful links online is something we are deadly serious about…

So, will Scour do that? The answer is… (more…)

Jumping Back to Jumptags For A Real Boost in Backlinking

Monday, July 7th, 2008

Four prior posts, to date, have discussed the advantages of using Jumptags as a social book marking tool for your website and/or blog.

These posts have included proof that just taking a few seconds of your time each time you make a post - or even add a new page to your website - to log into your Jumptags account means multiple links in the search engines extremely quickly (we’ve even got pictures).

So why am I returning today to talk once again about the beauty of back link building with this social media strategy?

First, because (more…)

Fired Up Becomes Fireworks With SocialSpark

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

Remember the other day when I did a big writeup about SocialSpark? I was going to do it anyway, but found just the fact of writing about SocialSpark could earn our blog $5.50 (and a huge bonus if it was chosen as the “best” post somewhere down the line).

Well yesterday the CustomerLove team approved that very post and in 30 days we’ll be receiving the $5.50 via paypal!

How easy was that?! (LOL, keep reading to find out)

Here was their process so you’ll have a feel for what’s what (including a screenshot of our SocialSpark inbox):

Why You Should Start A Blog or How to Increase Website Visitors Without Really Trying

Friday, May 23rd, 2008



Returning visits to our visitors, and visiting those who I follow in many of the social media communities, is an activity that I not only enjoy, but make sure I do on a daily basis.

Depending on my schedule, I may visit many in a short span of time (always allowing plenty of time for their pages to sit open in my browser to avoid penalizing them for my visit - no short visits please!). I try to schedule this portion of my day (or bits and pieces throughout the day) so I can relax and enjoy my visits, read, and comment, comment, comment.

How To Use Entrecard Effectively Without Resorting to Drop Sites

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

This may seem like the most obvious to some, but other Entrecard users might be “surprised” at this twist to visiting other people’s blogs and dropping cards.

Log into your own Entrecard account.

Using either the cards shown across the top or even starting with a current advertiser, right click on the card and open that site’s information in a new window (you could even just visit your own blog and start there, but logging into Entrecard is fastest).

Then (remember you are in a “new window” at this point), click on the link out to that particular blog. Find the Entrecard widget and drop your card.

NOTE: LEAVE THAT CURRENT BLOG OPEN IN YOUR BROWSER! Later you can revisit it to comment, but at a minimum you will allow the window to be open long enough to help NOT penalize the blog owner (read up on “bounce rates” to learn what I mean). Be kind :)

Leave the window OPEN and RIGHT click on the current advertiser who’s card is showing on that widget.

(Highly suggested: Use Firefox and make sure your newly visited sites will open in a new TABBED window or use the RIGHT CLICK method above.)

Drop your card on this next site and click on the advertiser doing his or her thing on this new widget.

Once you get a rhythm going, it’s easy to go from blog to blog to blog. If you “get stuck” (and you will every now and then), just start the process over with a new choice from your dashboard or under CAMPAIGN.

This way you don’t keep visiting the same ones over and over (unless you really want to), and get to add numerous visits quickly and easily.

Here’s another suggestion that really is well worth your time and (no) trouble:

As you close the Tabbed Windows one by one, take a look around and see if there isn’t something you’d like to put your two cents in about… in other words leave a comment!

It’s sort of amazing how few people are really using Entrecard to its greatest advantage. A quick, simple, super easy way to FIND WAYS TO COMMENT on other people’s blogs. You won’t always get a “follow” link, but you’ll be doing yourself and your blog/website a huge favor in terms of word of mouth advertising about YOU.

So let’s recap:

1. Drop Entrecards efficiently
2. Comment for personal name branding
3. Comment for backlinking

Do this each day for 5-10 minutes and you’ll have 100s if not 1000s of backlinks for yourself in a very, very short amount of time!

Enjoy!
