hi,
In what is perhaps the most shocking announcement made in some time regarding the vast world of the Internet, a New York doctor has just released a very private "secret" he's been using since the earliest days of targeted paid advertising at search engines.
He admitted without hesitation that he's gotten over $87 million in pay-per-click advertising over the last nearly 8 years at such search engines as Google, Overture, MSN, Yahoo and others, and resulting in his having amassed a $300 million fortune!
In the past 2 years alone he's netted over $166 million as a result of what he calls a very simple "oversight" promoters online have altogether missed.
So valuable this "oversight" has proven that he's finally decided to share it with the rest of us.
And his timing couldn't be better!...
- Since going public Google's ads haven't become any cheaper!
- Other paid-for search engine advertising at large is rising faster than inflation can keep up!
"Back in the day" even an affiliate could just go to some website, sign up free to sell some product (such as with Amazon stores or the vast ebooks at ClickBank) and then just place a small 4-line pay-per-click ad, fine tune it, and then sit back and make money on autopilot.
But with rising costs this is getting much, much harder, and has literally seen the demise of many, many affiliate businesses go completely under.
But now with the release of this New Englander's super-secret, webmasters, promoters, both big and small business owners, as well as affiliates with shoestring budgets are back in the game!
When asked why he kept this "oversight" secret, the New Yorker responded "I knew I had a good thing, quite possibly a monopoly over any market I cared to try ... I made a success of 16 web businesses in less than a decade ... do you honestly blame me? ..."
But now he's decided to share his know-how as he knows that doing so doesn't take a single dollar away from his $300 million fortune, and it won't cause widespread usage to the degree that it will even put a dent in search engine activity.
To be sure the good doctor had the sense to consult several Internet experts and "macroeconomists" just to be on the safe side.
Additionally, you should know that nothing about his secret either robs search engines (so you don't have to fear Google coming after you!) or is anything about it illegal in any other way.
What you may even find strangely surprising about his secret is the fact that it actually "helps" search engines make even more money! (You'll have to see it for yourself to understand how this is actually possible!)
So if you think you're smarter than most people, then here's your chance to prove it to everybody else! Just grab the good doctor's secret for yourself at:
http://tinyurl.com/27gkql
But I feel it only fair to warn you that this doctor fellow from New England is a tad eccentric and self-admittedly "moody" and he's threatened to withdraw this secret at some point soon without so much as a single day's notice ... (Northerners!)
So if I were you I'd not take any chances because although he may keep it available for the next 2 months, he may also take it off the market just 2 days from now (and then you'll kick yourself saying "Dad-gummit! I knew I should have grabbed that when I had the chance!" ... so don't let this happen).
Also keep this in mind...
-----------------------------------
How many times since the commercial release of the Worldwide-Web have you seen sudden "breakthroughs" of great fortune-making potential come and go where just a few people were in the right place at the right time to be able to take advantage of them? -- You're right ... very, very few.
So don't overlook this email as it may very well prove to be one of the most influential and important ones you've ever received.

Hi,
Phil again with this weeks thoughts of Chairman Mao, so to speak.Imagine, if you will, Gardeners' Question Time on the radio. Mr Bloggs from Milton Keynes phones in. "Dear Panel. I have been trying to grow roses in my garden unsuccessfully during the last five seasons without success. They all wither and die within weeks, despite watering. Can you offer anysuggestions?"
The panel then asks questions and soon discover that Mr Bloggs is planting his roses at the base of a large conifer tree. They tell him that the conifer - a shallow rooting tree - sucks out all nutrient from the soil and that the roses are effectively starved. The solution is to hack down the tree, reenergize the soil with good compost, wait a while and try again.
Now I'm not a gardener but even to the most sophisticated urbanite, this advice makes perfect sense.Now every week I get at least one email from someone telling me they either cannot think of a product or a market area they can work in. My first thought is that this is perfectly true - they can't. That's because, unlike Mr Bloggs of Milton Keynes, they simply made a statement. It wasn't a question. Mr Bloggs did not say he couldn't grow roses, he said he'd been unsuccessful thus far, and could the panel offer reasons as to why this was so. My enquirer simply said he couldn't grow roses and this is a self-fulfilling prophesy.
What he should have said is, "what am I doing wrong?" Phrasing it this way means his mind is open to the possibility he can correct the problem.So, what's the answer? The answer is that you can't grow roses in unsuitable soil. My enquirer has the mental equivalent of a forest of conifer trees in his mind, a forest that has taken many years to grow. Every motivational expert will tell you that a person is where they're at today because of all the thinking and actions they have taken in the past and that is undeniably true.
This past experience of how to do anything, including how to think, is engrained and has become a mental forest that stops new things from growing. The solution is to clear the forest.The advice of my gardening panel would be to mentally clear the forest and add tons of nutrient to the soil.
The process is called mind-flooding.Make a decision to spend one month doing nothing else in your spare time other than filling your mind with the best motivational audio tapes, CDs and books you can get hold of. Get some CDs from Nightingale Conant. Buy some classic books such as Think and Grow Rich. Spend money and really make the effort to flood your mind with good news, inspirational words and wisdom. Spend time, every morning, every afternoon, and every evening listening or reading this material. If there is a motivational seminar taking place somewhere then go to it. Really go for it.
This flood of positive information will deluge the forest of negativity in your mind and replace it with new soil. You have to stop negative weeds growing again by constantly being aware of negative 'I can't' thoughts and replacing them with new positive affermations. You cannot, and don't need to self-generate this stuff. Just release the dam of information others have prepared for you.The object is to change your mind, destroy negative habits and replace them with verdant roses, roses which will bloom into your new life, and those very speakers will make you see ideas you simply couldn't see before.
The ideas are there, but most people are blind to them. Instead, what so many people do, is to think that they know all this, that this mental mumbo-jumbo is an unnecessary diversion from the real task in hand which is to find that 'special' plan or off the shelf business that will put some cash in the bank.
The reality is that nothing will happen to the situation outside of your head, until you change the situation inside your head.What I can guarantee is that by spending a month mind flooding yourself with just some of the fantastic information available to you, you will have a much more positive and optimistic view of your own future. This in turn stimulates ideas that were actually in front of your face but you couldn't see them before.
I perform a monthly mind flood every year. Sometimes I spend thousands doing it, and it's worth every penny.BestPhilA carbon friendly transmission.

Bloggovisionless
Hi,Another great read from Phil Gosling of www.homepublish.com Sorry that last week was bloggovisionless. It would seem that the beginning of each new year results in Denise, Sheelagh and me going to bed under doctor's orders, fortunately in sequence, not all at the same time, he added hastily.
Last week was my turn. * * * There are milestones in life that move you, lift you, place you on a higher level or on a different path. I'm not talking about the negative events but the positive ones. The trouble is that the negative ones force themselves into your consciousness, whereas the positive ones have to be 'noticed': you have to make a conscious effort to see them. A milestone that affected me not once but twice was the Luscher Colour Test. This test involves placing eight or more coloured cards in order of personal preference. I like this test because it doesn't need a degree in advanced metaphysics to do it. Indeed watching adverts on TV is only slightly less demanding.
This is a psychological profiling test and it can be illuminating or even a little scary. It certainly makes you rethink who and where you are. I did this test in the early seventies when I thought I was 'of scientific bent' and it turned out I was as much of a scientist as Fanny Adams and should have been an artist. That's when I realised, for the first time, that I liked writing.
That test changed my life. I did the test again about eight weeks ago, but on the internet, which is debateable regarding the results. The test relies on pure colours and as anyone even slightly computer literate knows, the colours shown in a browser vary from browser to browser or from screen to screen. The best test uses colour cards and can be obtained in book form (search in Amazon). Even so, I did the test.
I will not reveal to you the results of the latest test. You know I'm weird. You just don't want to know how weird. But what the results did show me was that I was off-track and as a result I have re-embraced goal setting and daily snippets of high-value, self-improvement DVDs and CDs. So, seeing as I have written a book on goal setting, had I lost faith in it? Absolutely not. I have just been reminded that even when you have reached the goals previously set, you cannot stand still. You need to set new goals, new targets that stretch your imagination even further than before.
So I do more than urge you to set goals; more than urge you to listen or watch good speakers every day. I can tell you with perfect honesty, and complete conviction based not only on years of research but on my own personal experience and that of many others I have spoken to, that if you don't have goals, you cannot attain them.
I did not say 'might not' I said cannot. It's universal law. If you don't know where you are going you'll never get there except by the luckiest of chance. And even then chance favours the prepared mind.
Dreaming and wishful thinking is not goal setting. A goal is not a dream you wish to come true. A goal is a dream you know will come true. You've probably read, or more likely skimmed through, Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. It's not an easy book to read because it was written in 1930s America and the language, phraseology and examples are all highly dated, as are the names used, like O. Henry (who calls their child 'O'?). But I'm reading it again and I'm getting even more out of it this time around than the first time.
The first time I was earning about 10K a year as a shipping clerk, had a net worth of minus a lot, and was desperate the break out and be independent, earning - ooh - say 50K a year. I am now a writter (Not a writer. Tolstoy was a writer.) with a net worth of plus a lot and I would regard 50K a year as a half-decent pension. And yet I'm getting more out of this book than before. Why?
Because I NOW know it's true, every bit of it. Because, reflecting back, I now know that everything I have achieved followed, if only accidentally, the advice in this book and everything I haven't achieved was as a result of not following the advice in this book. So, go take Dr Max's Colour test and frighten yourself witless. Then read Hill's epic and relax again. You can find many free downloads of Think and Grow Rich in Google.
Take time to read a little very day. You will not regret it. In Blott on the Landscape by Tom Sharpe one of the characters, a gnarled old colonel, made a very true political comment. "Old style politicians - looked stupid - were clever. New style politicians - look clever - are stupid." That's why a good place to look for wisdom is old-style stuff. Best regardsPhil "In times of radical change, the learners inherit the earth, while the learned find themselves perfectly equipped for a world that no longer exists..." - Eric Hoffer ...
Thanks again to Phil Gosling.

Write Stuff
It's everyone's dream, having your own top selling book paving the way to great publicity, prestige, wealth and fame giving you the freedom to finally break free of the daily grind.
When many of us consider how to learn to write a book we think back to studying great fiction writers in school where we are taught the basics of grammar and the English language. Yes, you have to know the basics of how to write, but to write an ebook or best-selling book, it has little to do with writing ability and everything to do with understanding your readers and what they want.
Of course this is good news if you don't fancy yourself a literary type, where the words just don't seem to come when you sit down to write and where adhering to the main rules of grammar and spelling are more painful than placing your hand on a hot element.
Your question of how to learn to write a book can be answered in 3 simple steps.
1. Mastering idea generation and market research. You will notice that this step has absolutely nothing to do with writing, but instead stresses the importance of knowing how to evaluate demand, uncover opportunities to provide answers to questions and understand the unerlying motivation behind common questions your readers will have.
2. Organize and Outline. It's a little known fact that non-fiction, informational books are most valuable when organized into a logical sequence of information corresponding to high demand customer questions. Especially important to mastering the organization of any ebook, book or informational product is to reverse engineer the questions that your reader will need to have answered to get from their current situation to where they want to be.
If you ask how to learn to write a book, learning how to outline your book, ebook, course or information product is the one single key to earning a fortune. Not only will it make writing your products much faster, it will open up opportunities for inexpensive ghostwriting for some of all of your books freeing your time to enjoy life.
3. Making Everything Old Unique Again. There is very little new information that exists out there, yet every month their are new best-selling books on topics where many books have been written before. Is there repetition - absolutely. Many of my clients that ask me how to learn to write a book feel they must be 100% unique in the information they provide, yet again and again top selling books contain information that largely overlaps what is already available - so why do they sell?
You may not believe me when I say this, but it is absolutely true, you only need to have one unique aspect about your product for it to become a best-seller. It is possible, and has been done many times, that all of the content overlaps with what is already out there, but is simply presented in a different way - back to the organization topic we discussed earlier.
For example, you could take the topic of traveling on a low budget, research information already available, then re-package the knowledge into your own formula - even add one or two unique experiences from your own travels and there you have it, a completely original work.
To realize our dream of becoming a best-selling author we have to know how to learn to write a book, suprisingly it has more to do with reading your market, organizing and re-packaging information in a way that is perceived as unique. With this formula, you too can realize your dreams of writing a top-selling book.
Discover hidden methods of finding red-hot ebook topics, quickly turning them into highly profitable ebooks and using these digital books to build your own online marketing empire. Free course tells you how here: http://www.highertrustmarketing.com/ebook/
Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/?expert=Jeff_Smith
Another idea you might like to chase up if you have the inclination to have a go at scribing. Remember they do say that everyone has a book in them. I mean even my humble self wrote a small book a few years ago, I called it " Money from Honey" all about those busy little honey bees.

Autoresponders
Using an autoresponder is pretty much a must – do in modern internet marketing. You simply must build a list, and you must build it using automated techniques.
So how long should your autoresponder sequence be?
Well, it varies dramatically depending on your purpose, but for ours and this project, you are simply going to start with a simple series of about 3-4 messages in your auto responder sequence. This will make it easy for you to learn the basics.
These emails are not designed to sell, but rather to allow your customer to get to know you. Remember, you are simply building a relationship with like-minded folks online, building an opportunity to begin to recommend your products or affiliate products on down the road. You want them to learn to like you, to trust you, to want to buy from you, and feel comfortable doing so.
Your first email should simply thank the subscriber for joining your list, indicating that you strive to maintain a quality mailing and will do your best to only send helpful information. If you have offered a free ebook or other product to first-time subscribers, you can include a link to that ebook in this email. This is certainly a get-to-know-you email.
Your second, third and fourth emails should be spaced about 4-6 days apart, and should simply be useful information for your subscribers. You can send links to additional free ebooks, to useful info on your web site, or you can simply write content with good information, and send it to your subscribers.

Leads??
I just received an email from a frustrated business owner who asked;
"How can I generate leads on a very limited budget?"
It's a question I hear more and more these days.
It is a horrible position to be in. You need the leads to make money and you need money to get the leads.
Or do you...?
This Is What I Told Him:
1/ You need to create a simple 2 page website using a software like XSitePro I honestly believe that XSitePro is one of the best lead generating tools to hit the online community in the last 3 years. It takes 90% of the hard work out of creating a professional website. The first page on this site needs to be a simple Name Squeeze opt-in form. (See and example at http://www.GetMoreSalesleads.com ) The second page... well, sign up and see for yourself. :-)
2/ Next get yourself an unlimited auto responder account with Aweber.com and write a series of follow up messages explaining the benefits of your products and services.
3/ Register a keyword-rich domain name and install Wordpress (available from wordpress.com)
NOTE: use a service like www.BannersMall.com to create a professional looking header graphic for your site.
4/ Contact 100 people (via telephone) in your niche market and ask them to have a guest column on your new site.
Explain that they will be free to promote their products and services so long as they also provide you with interesting, original content.
5/ Publish their articles on your blog and use an article submission software like ArticleSubmitterPro to submit their monthly articles to 900+ article directory sites.
6/ Write 3 original articles a day relating to your niche market and submit these at the same time.
7/ Use your blog to drive traffic to your XSitePro Name-Squeeze site.
The aim should be to make your blog an authority site relating to your niche. This takes time and that is one reason why you need to leverage on the talents of others. You will be pleasantly surprised at how helpful people are when you ask them for help in a polite manner.
A Possible Objection to the Above:
The first is... "But Chris, this will take a lot of time..."
And your point is?
If you have a healthy cash flow, then you can start seeing leads 20 minutes from now with any one of the Pay Per Click programs like Google Adwords.
But if money is tight - this is a viable alternative. The trouble is there are so many people that would rather sit like a stuffed potato night after night in front of the idiot box when they could be doing something to grow their business and change their hopeless situation.
Look at it this way...
Everyone in business is helped or hindered by three things:
1) Money 2) Time 3) Energy
Any time you are short on one of these three you have to increase the other two.
In other words,....
A lack of time means you will l need to use more money and energy.
A lack of energy means you will have to use more money and time.
A lack of money means you will have to use more energy and time.
These 7 steps are not a quick-fix but they do present a simple lead generating solution that virtually anyone can use to build up a steady flow of targeted traffic which in turn can generate sales leads on a consistent basis.
Like every idea, the things I have shared will only work in your business if you apply them.
