1 API Script + 10 Web 2.0 Sites + The Power Of RSS = One Brilliant Strategy

Introducing:  Backlink Index Express

I have 3 questions for you:

• Are you tired of waiting weeks to see your backlinks indexed?
• Are the link packet backlinks you are working so hard to create never indexed?
• Do you like automation?

If you are going to spend all of that time and money building backlinks to your site, wouldn’t it be worth $37 and one hour of your time to make sure your backlinks are actually working for you?

Let me explain what I mean. Your backlinks are only have power when they are INDEXED by Google. If a backlink is invisible to Google, it is essentially worthless.

So let me ask you: what is the best way to make sure a page on the Internet is seen and indexed by Google? If you said "Backlink that page" – you would be correct! So the cure for the ‘Invisible Backlink’ is simply:

BACKLINK Your BACKLINKS!

You’ll be glad to know that there is an automated way to do this. You don’t have to get bogged down with another daily ‘process’ that sucks your time and energy. I have been providing Internet marketing tools for several years through my blog. After I became a customer of Terry Kyle’s excellent products – I saw an opportunity to skyrocket the effectiveness of ANY backlinking strategy.

Backlink Index Express is a script that runs on your web server – but it’s much more than that; it’s a strategy that links the latest innovative Web 2.0 web sites together to form a powerful backlinking technique. My technique uses Ping.fm and blog sites such as Tumblr and Wordpress.com in a way you may have not thought of before.

Let’s Take A Look:

Auto-Blogging On Steroids

Here is how it works: You create an RSS feed of your backlink urls – then Backlink Index Express mixes your links from this feed into blog posts that are automatically fed to 8 popular blog sites via another fantastic web site – Ping.fm. Backlink Index Express uses the Ping.fm api to do the grunt work for you – automatically.

Every hour, the system posts to the Web 2.0 blog sites – and each post contains a link to one of your backlink pages on a forum or community site!But that is not all – the script also collects the RSS feed from EACH of the 8 blogs and automatically PINGS the search engines after each post is made!

To run this system you need about one hour of setup time, to sign up for all of the web sites involved – each of them is TOTALLY FREE. You also need a web hosting account to run the PHP script. No database is needed, the only tricky part is setting up 2 cron jobs. You’ll get a one-hour video that shows you, step-by-step how it’s all done.

Once you are set up, all you have to do is add your NEW backlink urls to your RSS feed – and everything else is automated from there. The script will post your links on the Web 2.0 blogs – and the search engines will get a ping every time the blogs are updated.

FAST Indexing Of Backlinks

Want proof this system works? If you have a few minutes, watch my video that shows, step-by-step how I got my backlinks indexed in 6 days:

Yes, it’s true you CAN make ALL of your backlinks count with an automated system that is really easy to set up. I provide you with over an hour of video instruction on how to set everything up, step-by-step. And with all of this at a very special price (only for Warriors) – of $37, it’s a no-brainer! You get the script, access to the training videos, along with my full support.

Supercharge Your Backlinking

• All Your Backlinks Will Work For You!
• No More Wasted Time Building Worthless Backlinks
• Easy To Set Up – Only Uses FREE Web 2.0 Sites
• Simple Setup – No Database Needed
• You Can Keep Adding Backlinks To The System
• Set Up Once – It Runs Itself

Bonus Script Available

What’s more…if you choose to accept my offer, I’ll be giving you the opportunity to purchase, at a ridiculously low price ($10), my ‘SECRET’ script, PingFeedr – a tool I’ve been using for years to build automated backlinks. I DO NOT sell this product to anyone other than my paying customers. It’s a powerful, set-it-and-forget-it tool to automatically build some more backlinks. (Ever hear of SPLOGS? – this script FORCES them to link to you!) And it’s ONLY available to customers of Backlink Index Express.

You Can’t Afford Not To Try This

Who wouldn’t jump at this – especially if you are already spending your valuable time and money building backlinks – can you afford NOT to spend 1 hour and $37 to make sure that ALL of your backlinks count?

You owe it to yourself to try this method and see the amazing power it will bring to your backlinking strategy. This method truly leverages all the power of the latest Web 2.0 techniques to juice the profit potential of all of your web sites.

Go ahead, give my script a try – you have absolutely NOTHING to lose, as you have my personal assurance of a no-quibble 30 day satisfaction guarantee.

If you are creating a pay-to-learn website, you have no doubt looked at the various web-based open-source LMS (Learning Management Systems) or sometimes called CMS (Course Management Systems). These programs were designed by educators, not marketers, so they don’t contain the payment solutions that marketers want to cash in on the ‘Boom’ in pay-to-learn web sites.

The sad fact is, that the open-source LMS products today just do not have robust ecommerce support. It is possible to add a shopping cart to an open-source LMS product like Moodle. With a little set of hacks and the E-Junkie shopping cart system, it’s really quite easy to do, even if you have basic to moderate coding skills.

Use Remote Enrollment

They key to doing this in Moodle is by using the remote enrollment database feature. You ‘intercept’ the enrollment code within Moodle, and replace it with your shopping cart buttons. Then the remote callback feature of the EJunkie shopping cart populates your external enrollment database.

I have created an electronic web e-course that shows how to do all of this in detail.  If you are handy with PHP, it should not be any problem for you to set up – if you are not, consult an expert to help you with the mods.  Also, this procedure should be viewed as a ‘hack’, not a ‘module’.  It would be unlikely to survive an upgrade without some modification.

E-Junkie Shopping Cart

This course shows you how to use the popular e-Junkie service with Moodle.  This site has all the e-commerce functions you need to add a powerful shopping cart to your Moodle system.  This setup offers:

• A professional-looking cart and checkout system
• The ability to use any payment processor – not just PayPal
• A pro-grade affiliate management system
• Ability to track payments
• A system that integrates with popular 3rd party systems such as autoresponders
• Professional design and a reliable system

Here Is A Preview

I used to give this course away – but many of you who took my offer had numerous support issues, so to make it worth my while, I’ve decided to charge $29 for the course.  Dozens of users have successfully implemented this solution – it really harnesses the power of e-Junkie.  There are 5 videos, over 40 minutes of instruction.

There are lots of opinions online about the efficacy and ethics of cookie stuffing.  There are lots of voices out there that will shame you to always play by the rules, and to never do anything that might violate someone’s TOS.  I also see very large advertisers, ecommerce sites and ad networks who routinely do all sorts of things – they stuff cookies, they track you with cookies, they do sneaky redirects, they cloak content.  As long as these big companies make money for their partner programs, all is well.  It is usually the ‘little guy’ that gets slapped for doing things like cookie stuffing.

So there is a real hypocrisy that exists in the internet marketing world about this subject, and there will be no end to the debate.  But frankly, I don’t really care.  If a tool works for you – use it.  My Cookie Stuffr plugin for Wordpress allows you to cookie visitors in the background before they click your links.  This allows you to put plain HTML links on your pages for better click through rates.

My recommendation is to only use this plugin for 1 or 2 links per page – although you can use it for as many as you like.  Remember, you are responsible for your use of this tool – I’m not responsible if you end up getting banned by your program.

Cookie Stuffr is very simple to use – just upload, activate and enter your affiliate links for each page or post where you would like the cookie set.  It’s simple and effective.  I’ve priced the plugin at only $17, so it’s easy to buy – use it on as many domains as you own.

There’s a 100% 30-day money back guarantee so you have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

If you do affiliate marketing, particularly if you are in the make-money or software niche – I have news for you; your  buyers are on to you.  They know about affiliate marketing, commissions, and the whole bit.  Even though you go to all the trouble to place great content, reviews and the like out on the web, your buyers may just begrudge you making a commission and simply refuse to click your affiliate link.

Even cloaked links are so commonplace now that buyers are tuned in to the game – they just feel better about clicking plain ‘ol links – without the affiliate redirects.  A classic symptom of this – your are getting lots of traffic, but no commissions.  What’s the solution?

Introducing Cookie Stuffr

Cookie Stuffr is a simple Wordpress Plugin that puts your affiliate tracking cookie on your visitor’s computer when they load the page – before they click any links.  Now your links can all be nice, clean, wholesome text links. They have no idea that by the time they hover your plain text link in your review, they ALREADY have your affiliate cookie on their PC. When they buy, you earn the commission.

Works In The Background

It works by allowing you to add your affiliate link to a Wordpress post or page within the Wordpress admin panel. When that post is viewed, your affiliate link is quietly and invisibly called in the background. The visitor has no idea that this is happening – all they see is a plain text link that you add to your post. After all, there’s no need to make your affiliate link publicly visible within the post any more, as the visitor to your blog has already been cookied. As far as they’re concerned, you’ve written a product review with no intent of financial gain, and they’re ready to go through to the site and buy.

Easy Set-Up

Cookie Stuffr is very easy to use. Just upload and activate the plugin, then go to the Cookie Stuffr settings page.  Once you’re there you can add your affiliate links to as many posts or pages as you like.

Isn’t This A Black Hat Technique?

Uh, yes.  And it can get you banned by your affiliate program – really.  So if you are going to use it, use it sparingly, one or two per page or post.  All we can say is, that’s up to you. If you think it’s worth it, then go right ahead, but it’s your responsibility if you do.

The plugin is priced very reasonably at $17.   Start to reclaim those commissions you would have otherwise lost.  There’s no doubt in my mind that Cookie Stuffr will give you a competitive edge over other affiliates, just don’t go crazy and stuff too many cookies!

There’s a 100% 30-day money back guarantee so you have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

If you have a membership system, blog or e-learning application, you most likely want to put your new sign-ups into some type of autoresponder system at the same time.  However, you really don’t want to make them sign up twice – once for your application, and once for the autoresponder.  Wouldn’t it be nice if you could auto-subscribe your new members to your mailing list application automatically?

If you use Aweber, or a similar service, you can just have your membership system shoot an email to yourListName@aweber.com – your recipient will automatically receive an opt-in verification message from Aweber.  Many 3rd party services are integrated with Aweber, like E-Junkie – you can configure the E-Junkie cart to prompt Aweber to send a verification message automatically.

What if you run your own autoresponder script?  What if your autoresponder script does not support subscribe by email? Is there a way to easily integrate an autoresponder script with another type of system?  Thankfully, the answer is ‘Yes’ – with a little PHP scripting.

PHP supports a very cool little extension called cURL – this library of software magic allows you to automate lots of things over the Internet – including the filling out of autoresponder subscription forms.  To get this to work, you need PHP with cURL support (most any unix/linux webhost).  If you don’t know if your host has this, just ask.

Step 1 : get the html source of your autoresponder subscription form – make sure it’s the form for the correct mailing list – as most scripts put some kind of long ‘form id’ within the sign-up form.  This code tells the autoresponder which list the form is requesting.  Note: if you are using a service like Aweber Get the HTML version of your form, not the javascript version.  Open the html form in your notepad application.

You will need to document following from your autoresponder html submission form:

1.  The post action url (note that for some autoresponders, the subscribe script may have a querystring variable appended to the script, to help identify the correct mailing list or account-I’ve included one in this example- not all scripts will require a querystring):

<form method="post" action=http://scriptdomain.com/path/subscribe.php?listID=343 >

2. The Name and Email name attributes:

<input  value="" name="FirstName" type="text" size="30" >

<input  value="" name="Email" type="text" size="30" >

Your code will look a bit different, but all these forms have a name and email input field.  You want to note the ‘name’ attributes – you’ll need them for the script.

3. Now identify any ‘hidden’ input fields in your form and note the ‘name’ attribute.

<input type="hidden" name="FormCode"

value="9a2bba0636de2430693f445480875730">

4.  Next, document all of the form fields for your script:

url: http://scriptdomain.com/path/subscribe.php?listID=343

Form Fields:
Email
FirstName
FormCode

5.  Ok – now let’s code the integration (I’m assuming PHP here):

<?php

//first, find the variables in your sign-up script that contain the user's first

// name and email

//again, your code will look different - //just find the variables for first name and email

//your script may use a simple $_POST function as in the example below for

//$firstname  - Or your script may have a more secure and modular way to 

//define the variable, like the example below for $email ...

$firstName=$_POST['firstName'];

$email=AWLRequest::post('email',45);

// ok, now somewhere after your script processes the sign -up, put this code:

//NOTE: always use //MOD comments around your changes!

//DSP MOD:send message to autoresponder

 

// create a new curl resource

$ch = curl_init();

// set URL and other appropriate options - use the url for your subscribe script

 

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, http://scriptdomain.com/path/subscribe.php?listID=343);

// Do a POST - this is an array - the HTML field names from your submit form// are the 'keys'

 

$data = array('FirstName' => $firstName, 'Email' => $email,'FormCode'=>'9a2bba0636de2430693f445480875730');

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);

// execute cURL command:

$exec=curl_exec($ch);

            //END DSP MOD

And that’s all you do!  Each time your form processing script executes, the user’s name and email are sent to your autoresponder script for processing.

To test this script, create a stand-alone version of the cURL code only,  with hard-coded values for the firstname an an email address like this:

<?php

$email = 'me@mydomain.com';
$firstName = 'My name';

$ch = curl_init();

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://scriptdomain.com/path/subscribe.php?listID=343");
// get the vars

// Do a POST
$data = array('Fields[1]' => $firstName, 'Email' => $email,
        'FormCode'=>'9a2bba0636de2430693f445480875730',
                      'Format'=>'1','SelectLists[1]'=>'YES');//note - splitting lines in php code is ok - php looks for the ending semicolon to //tell the end of a line of code

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);

// grab URL, and print
$exec=curl_exec($ch);
?>

Now save this script with any name you want, upload to your server and load it into your web browser.  If all is working, you’ll get an email from your autoresponder script.

Troubleshooting tips:

Make sure you have the correct form field names from the sign up form

Make sure your path to the subscribe.php or whatever it’s called for your autoresponder system is correct.

Be sure that your web host allows cURL (almost all do).

The #1 coding error for PHP beginners – forgetting the semicolon at the end of each line!

Testing is defined in the dictionary as this…

“A procedure for critical evaluation; a means of determining the
presence, quality, or truth of something”

…and that’s exactly what it is, a way for you to determine the presence, quality and truth of every aspect of your business, in other words, a way for you to find out exactly what works and what doesn’t work, what produces results and what wastes time, what makes you money and what costs you money.

This is why it is so vital to your business.

Testing is one of the most important aspects of building a business that you can possibly do, it really is, testing can be the difference between $100 a month and $10000 a month, it can be the difference between a 1% conversion rate and a 5% conversion rate, it can be the difference between success and failure.

That may sound a lot like hype but it really is the truth, if you’re not testing aspects of your business and marketing process then you’re leaving money on the table, possibly a LOT of it.

Split Test With A Simple Script

AdTestPro is a new split testing tool that gives you the ability to test multiple pages in order to find out which one produces the best results.

For example, if you are going to put up a squeeze page for a niche market you want to start selling to then you could create two versions of the page, just word them a little differently, try different images, things like and then let AdTestPro run them, all you need to do is drive traffic to your domain name and the script will automatically rotate the pages so that each page receives the same amount of visitors.

The script will provide you with the data you need and will show you which version of the page produces the best results, then you simply go with that page or even better, create another one and see if you can beat the results, if you continue doing this then you will be constantly increasing your conversion rates.

The great thing about AdTestPro is that it is extremely easy to install and easy to set-up, this script has been created specifically for the purpose of making split testing easy for you to do, you don’t need to learn any sort of coding and there isn’t anything difficult about getting the entire thing set­up and ready to go.

Easy To Install And Use

• Easily install and set-up the program – No complicated code
• Test everything about your  pages – Graphics, wording, layouts and more
• Gain important data that puts more money in your pocket when used
• Run alternate versions of the same page – Squeeze pages, sales pages, etc
• Find out what little changes can make big differences to your bottom line

Better Than The Competition

Unlike similar programs, AdTest Pro allows you to keep your home page structure intact. You don’t have to redirect visitors to alternate pages – this is a very important SEO advantage. Don’t be fooled by AdTest Pro’s low price – this program is professionally written and is very powerful.

To Your Success,

I’ve been article marketing for several months now, and I’d like to share some data with you.  I have several hundred articles live on many of the more popular article directories.  I’ve been tracking referrals to my landing pages from all of them.   Each one of my articles is written around one keyword phrase.

I looked at the keyword phrases of the top 50 articles, ranked by the number of referrals to my landing pages.  I wondered if there were common characteristics for the top-performing articles/keywords.  What I found probably won’t surprise a veteran article marketer, but for me it was a bit of a revelation.

The top keywords had an average of less than 200,000 quoted results – that means if you Google the keyword phrase in quotation marks, the results averaged less than 200,000.  Some were higher, some much lower, but the average was around 200K.  The top 10 performing keyword phrases had a quoted results average of around 100,000.  (the graphic below shows how to find this figure).

The other common stat for the top-performing keyword phrases was a little more difficult to calculate.  What I computed was the average number of backlinks (defined by Yahoo! Explorer) for the top ten Google results for a given keyword.  One easy way to get this number is downloading the SeoQuake Firefox extension.  You take the average of the Yahoo backlinks for the top ten results – and that average for my best article/keyword combinations was  about 2,000 (1,000 for the to ten keywords).

So, to sum up, the vital stats I found were:

• Less than 200,000 quoted results (closer to 100,000 is better)
• Less than 2,000 average backlinks for the top ten results (closer to 1,000 is better)

Now keep in mind  – this ONLY applies to article marketing, don’t use these guidelines for promoting your own domain.  The article directories have better rankings than you will ever have.   It’s easier to rank for a phrase on EzineArticles than your own domain, for instance.

The problem with this method is that it can get very time-consuming if you have a lot of keywords to check.  The easy solution is a little software program called WebComp Analyst.  It is simply the most slam-dunk piece of software I’ve ever bought for article marketing.  Put in your keywords and it spits out the very stats I have just outlined for you.  No fuss, no muss.  You can even export your results into Excel.  In my next post, I’ll show you a real cool way to manipulate your data from WebComp Analyst.

Many article marketers choose keywords for which their articles will never rank in Google.  My method outlined here will start getting your landing pages some serious traffic.

I’m using this program now to create secure, easy to set up membership areas. This is great little program that will work for any type of web site. This little program does it all – PayPal, Clickbank, recurring charges, One-Time Offers, free users. It lets you add members to your autoresponder automatically.

Post Update: Here is a great tool to actually use Twitter to make some money – Carl

If you haven’t heard of it before, Twitter is a micro blogging tool that allows you to write short messages (up to 140 characters at a time) that can be exchanged between friends, and posted for all to see. You can access Twitter via Web, Desktop Applications and even SMS. Here are 5 ways to use Twitter to generate more traffic.

1.Network with people in your niche – add them as friends and ask them to do the same, so they’ll get your updates when you tweet them. Don’t friend random people, try and create a beneficial relationship
with all parties involved.

2. Use a Twitter Search tool like Summize to see who is talking about your topic. Find out what the buzz is about your topic, who is talking about it, and then join in on the conversation and share your expertise and knowledge. Also use Summize to see what’s popular in the Twitter world, and try and create targeted content around that topic.

3. Let your followers and friends know about your new content – you can use a tool like Twitterfeed or manually update your twitter account when you post a new article, blog post or other piece of content. Your follower list is highly targeted – so they’ll want to know and read new content you’ve published. Not enough followers? Try creating Twitter exclusive content that will attract more followers and friends.

4. Solicit feedback on Twitter – ask friends and followers to give you feedback on new content, get their reactions, and continue the conversation on your blog or on Twitter.

5. Embed a Twitter box on your web page. Let visitors to your web site know that they can always be instantly updated – install a twitter box on your web site that updates with your latest tweets, and invite your website visitors to follow you on Twitter.

Twitter is a great way for getting in touch with other bloggers, promoting content, and increasing stickiness – use it well and you will increase your traffic, create buzz and establish a loyal following.
