If Your Internet Marketing Isn’t Working, Read This!

There are now just FIVE days to go until the biggest ever price rise on one of my recommended products.  Wealthy Affiliate University, the best online training for Internet marketers that exists, are going to increase the price of membership to a much more realistic level on June 7th 2010.  Whether you’re in the UK, US or anywhere, Internet Marketing is the same and requires expert training.  This is it.

Currently just $39 per month or $29 when you select annual subscription, WA is priced far too lowly to justify what it offers to members.

My business has turned around since I joined where I’ve learned to focus on things and perform tasks properly in order to bring in the profits.

If your Internet marketing isn’t bringing in what you feel it should be, then you need to join up today.

Even after the major price increase, it’ll still be value for money but, isn’t it better when you can get something cheaper?

Go for it!

Twitter’s New Twist

Twittollower - Proven To Bring Genuine Targeted Followers To Your 
Twitter Account View The Website

I must confess that in recent months I haven’t give Twitter the time that I used to give it.

Why?

Well, even with my 1000s of followers, it made little difference to my bottom line when I consider all the hours that I put into updating it, even with the occasional automatic updating software.

I know that many of my subscribers have felt the same way.  Just work out how many hours you spend messing with Twitter and see what you get back in sales or traffic to your website.

Now, in more recent months, I’ve been hearing about a piece of kit called ‘Twittollower’ which is an online system for getting you followers very quickly.  Yes, yes, I know what you’re thinking, the same as I did when my inbox started filling up with offers to go and read about the software pre-launch, I thought, NO! not again … more Twitter stuff that doesn’t work.

Twitter began getting very funny about people who would follow others by the truckload hoping that they would follow back.  I don’t blame them either.

The problem was, the followers were not targeted very accurately to your niche and all you ended up with were loads of followers who weren’t really interested in you or your products.

So, seeing Twittollower launched on 1st Feb 2010 made me wonder what all the fuss was about, after all, it was just another ‘quick fix’ to get followers, wasn’t it?

I decided to sign into it after a regular student of mine gave me his honest opinion after I asked him what it was really like.  There was I waiting for him to tell me that it was crap when he started to give me the run down of how each day went by with a noticeable difference to his sign-ups and response rates after posting to the followers that Twittollower had gained him.

Unique visitors from Twitter were appearing on his statistics for his blogs and websites.

He was even able to install a plugin to his Wordpress blog that automatically sent his posts to Twitter in order to have something for his followers to read and also have links for them to follow.

The good thing is, you simply don’t have to look for followers, the Twittollower system find them for you based on your niche.

All you do is open a brand new Twitter account, do nothing with it yet, open a Twittollower account, follow three simple steps and leave it.

You still make the usual posts to Twitter but your followers will come in their droves.

I decided to sign up on behalf of Internet Marketing Bugle readers to see if it was worthwhile before they invested in it themselves.

What was the result?

Fascinating, to say the least.

People were following me immediately and, what’s more, taking an interest in my posts.

Each hour the number of followers increased.

24hrs on and my following figure stands at 120 and I didn’t do a thing as Twittollower did it all for me, sending traffic to my site, non stop.

I have taken screen shots to prove to people that this really was the case.

I have made a few tweets, of course. Although they have been mostly generated by a plugin on my WordPress blog that tweets an announcement that I’ve made a new post.  You’re shown this plugin by the nice people at Twittollower, it’s free to install and use.

Finally, if you’re thinking that you could do what Twittollower does, only for free, well, here are two alternative views;

The first is that while you can add followers for free, adding over 130 per day would be both mind-numbingly boring and time-consuming.  I certainly wouldn’t consider it a good use of my time and  I’m sure most effective marketers would feel the same.

Free has its place, but not if getting free costs you in other ways.

The second view is that you have to remember that Twittollower guarantee to get you 2000+ new followers each month.

If you think of each follower as a sales lead, that means each lead has about a 3 cents acquisition cost. And that is outrageously cheap!

Of course, once you have them, you have them forever, so you pay to get them once, but can profit from them over and over again.

+ Latest update: 1557 followers, twenty days from opening my account.

Viral Link Network Launched – Review

There was a time when I thought building the best looking, most useful website was the way to strike it big on the internet. I worked hard at it, too, and take pride in my websites. I soon realized that a great website didn’t put a single penny in my pocket. What was the problem? Nobody was coming to my sites, because they were virtually invisible. I needed to rank higher in the search engines (some didn’t rank at all) and get more traffic. Luckily, Viral Link Network (VLN) solves that problem.

While other software is bloated and practically requires a degree in computer science to install, Viral Link Network is as easy as it gets. The way I look at, it doesn’t matter how good a piece of software is if I can’t figure out how to install it, or if the process is overly-complicated. Once you have Viral Link Network up and running, you’ll wish every other piece of software was that simple.

Once you go to the site and sign up for free, (yes, VLN is free!) you are taken to a page that has a special offer. While it’s optional, I would highly recommend getting it if you are serious about building links and getting your site seen. After that you will enter the member area. How easy is it? Just click the download link that says "Download Now". Save it, then use the installation key that’s provided to you. Every thing is laid out step-by-step in the guide that comes with your free download.

The makers of VLN are interested in helping people get links to their sites, too. You will notice on the welcome page that there is a Fast Mover Bonus. The only catch is that you have to install Viral Link Network within the first seven days of signing up. Of course, you will want to be up and running right away, but it’s a nice touch that they want to encourage people to get the most out of the software. But is the software itself any good?

Some earlier attempts at automated link building were adequate for their time. However, they left too many virtual fingerprints by using the same IP address for each back link. The problem is that it’s very easy to catch on to that, and link building that’s done that way is often counterproductive, because you can be penalized for it. That’s why I appreciate that Viral Link Network uses many different IPs when building links.

To put it simply, there is plenty to like about Viral Link Network. The fact that it’s a smart and powerful piece of software that’s free and easy to install makes it what I consider a true no-brainer. Don’t forget to grab the special offer, too. When you download VLN, you will start getting traffic to your websites like never before. Take advantage of it now, you’ll be glad you did.

Twitter Launches “Promoted Tweets”

Twitter has launched “Promoted Tweets” which gives brands the opportunity to pay to post their Tweets in the first search result. This allows brands to jump to the first position on trending topics.

Illustrated below is a Promoted Tweet for Starbucks who have chosen to advertise in the #nowplaying trending hashtag.

In the UK, leading brands have reacted with interest and some of the first brands to use Twitter to promote their brands include Best Buy, Bravo, Red Bull, Sony Pictures, Starbucks and Virgin America.

Twitter Promoted Tweets

Twitter users’ reactions to the prospect of promoted tweets on Twitter has been mixed. Tweets covering brands that carry sentiment are typically low –  most are informative or promotional – but the hashtag #promotedtweets seems to be carrying large negative sentiment at present. Techcrunch have been tracking sentiment and estimate that over 70% of Twitter users are unreceptive to them.

Their opinion aside, the next few weeks/months will be key to see if Promoted Tweets have any real and measurable return on investment for brands migrating marketing budget to this new channel.

Wot? No Broadband!

I never knew how much I relied on Broadband connections until I lost mine last week and am still without it now.

I spoke over the telephone to one of those call centres from abroad.  Now, I’ve nothing against those who speak with an Indian accent just as long as I an understand them.
I was finding it awfully difficult to communicate the guy at the other end simply because his accent was so strong. 

Obviously mine was too because he kept asking me to repeat what I’d just said and also ‘misheard’ several points.

Understanding your words is one thing but understanding exactly what you mean is a difficult task for someone who’s never lived in UK and understands our way of putting things, language wise.

Anyway, it was a Monday evening in the UK, about five minutes to midnight when I finally decided to call Virgin Media about my intermittent Broadband connection.
I’d be happily downloading files when I would notice that the little green line had stopped moving.  This kept happening and so I eventually called support.
After finally understanding my problem, we had a call booked in for an engineer to visit my home and fix the Internet connection.
Friday morning was the earliest that he could manage. 

Five days of ‘now you see me, now you don’t’ broadband is not funny.

Thursday evening it switched off altogether, totally dead.

Friday morning the engineer didn’t turn up.

Obviously, the Indian guy did not understand my problem or he didn’t understand how to book an engineer properly, one or the other, probably both.

Anyway, I called Virgin Media support once more enquiring as to where the engineer was.  ‘There was no engineer visit booked in for you at all sir’ was the reply to my enquiry.
The following Tuesday was the only available slot for the next attempt.  Could I stand four days without the Internet?  I had to  as it was what we  in the UK call a Bank Holiday and nobody calls to repair a broadband fault over this period.

Come Tuesday, the Virgin Media engineer called at 8am sharp.  Rubbing by eyes and adjusting my dressing gown, I let him in.

He repaired the fault immediately as he knew what the cause was.  It was the green box.

Outside of my home is a metal green box with all the connections of my neighbours who were also on cable TV, broadband or telephone.

Apparently my connection, known as a Siamese board (as it has two parts) had been unplugged from inside this green box and moved to a lower location.

The connections are supposed to be made in a certain configuration in order for the voltage to be uniformly distributed to each connection, however, the ‘contracted in’ engineers don’t subscribe to this method of connection and simply plug both boards into ANY available slot.

This may well mean moving my broadband board to a lower position in the cabinet and this is what causes my broadband to either be intermittent or not work at all.
It NEEDS to be in position number TWO at the top of the cabinet.

The engineer explained that every time another household in the street get a problem, their boards get moved into a different location which, in turn, means moving someone else’s.  This, more often than not, cures the problem …. for a short while.

The contracted in engineer can book the job as completed and book off home early.

Then, after a few days, the problem arises on the other person’s connection.  And so it goes on.

And on.

Nearly all call-outs come down to simply moving someone’s connection to another slot in the green cabinet. 

What’s the answer?  The engineer said, ‘Every time you see a Virgin Media van outside with someone messing with the green box, go out and tell them NOT to move your card out of slot two, otherwise the same thing will happen over again’.

Great, there am I paying a premium price for 50mb broadband and I have to stand guard outside of my house just in case some unscrupulous engineer wants to perform a quick fix and slide off home early.

British workmen, ‘eh?  I bet they don’t get this trouble in India.
