Web Based Wealth & Simon’s ‘Rant’
icon1 Simon | icon2 News | icon4 11 13th, 2008| icon3Comments Off

Web Based Wealth has launched and I’m feeling charged up and really excited…  (8 months is a long time to be working on a project before it sees the light of day)…  And I’m mad keen to get this in people’s hands so it can work it’s magic

Congratulations if you’ve already secured your place :)

But if you have still to decide then before you make your decision I’ve got a really important message for you (and to be honest something of a rant that I’ve wanted to get off my chest for months if not years)

You should grab a large drink and settle down for this one

Seriously…

How many times in the past have you bought a course or ebook only to find the information inside it was either terrible and didn’t help at all, or was ok /good but incomplete?

Now I buy lots of books, courses, dvd’s in fact you name it and I buy it, but I bet I’ve felt that way at least 80% of the times I’ve bought something…

And I bet you have too?

You know what I mean here -

Yes the information would be helpful if only the author bothered to tell you how to do the other 5 or 6 things you needed to do before their ’strategy’ actually worked.

You know

– Excellent Product Launch Strategy

but..

No information about creating a product to launch

or

– Excellent Traffic Generation Strategy

but…

No information about converting all the traffic into cash paying customers

or

–  Brilliant List Building Tactic

but…

No information about getting the list you build and converting it into responsive readers who actually buy something

Would it be too much to ask?

Would it?

Meanwhile you’re left with a pile of disjointed and (let’s be honest) bloody useless material

Sometimes this is actually done deliberately, it’s to get you to buy the next big thing…

I’ve seen any number of big name marketers teach that particular tactic and it’s really turned me off them (Man if you want to help someone then help them right?)  But to be fair it’s not always because someone is trying to milk you for every penny you have…

At times it’s because the ‘teacher’ simply lacks the experience in those other areas.  Or worse still their stuff just doesn’t work and the last thing they want you to do is find that out.  But where does that leave us…

We go off again in search of the missing piece of the puzzle - Only this time that great new traffic strategy you spend your hard earned cash on just doesn’t bring in the type of traffic that works with the strategies you read about in that email marketing book

To be honest it’s a bloody mess… and half the time I don’t know how some people wade through things to actually achieve anything!

You know - For the first 3 years I was online I spent thousands of dollars buying 100’s ebooks, courses, DVDs (you name it) and yes, while I had all the basics I needed from them, trying to work out how to put it all together was frying my brain.

Now c’mon hands up if it feels the same way to you?

If it does keep reading (take another sip of the coffee and stay with me on this)

Web Based Wealth changes the model here…  It’s a *complete* study guide to creating products, setting up an online business, running it like a pro and marketing your products.

You’ll discover how to generate traffic, build your list and how to market to them effectively

You’ll find out how to really increase your order conversions and why it’s vital you sell more on the back end to increase your profits…

Then if you keep moving forward you’ll get the low down on pulling in big bucks from your content,

How to pile up loads of money as an affiliate and how to finally get the big guys and big name joint venture partners to sit up and take notice -

And how to build an army of affiliates chomping at the bit to promote everything you put an order button on…

I’m not joking here - the only thing I think that’s missing inside the course is me telling you what to do with all the extra cash because I figured you’d already made plans for that - right :)

And guess what - it’s not disjointed it all fits together and yes it works…

In truth ANYONE can take this course and succeed with it…  Sure if you are really just starting out it might take you a little longer than if you’ve been at this game for a while - But it works -

No more fumbling around picking up small paychecks here and there… Because Web Based Wealth will show you how to go from a standing start into making incredible, life changing income fast.

But…  And this is important…

It only works if you are prepared to buy it…… read it and then apply it (and keep working at it)

Are you a ‘do-er’?  You know there are some people out there who are so busy looking for the next gimmick, the next big, red, shiny button to press or the next ‘big thing’ that they are *totally* unable to focus on any one project for more than a few weeks (Hell some of them can’t go an hour before jumping to the next thing)

If you are prepared to follow Web Based Wealth

If you will cover all the course modules

If you use the study guide and the mind maps

If you use the work books

And then if you put all the knowledge into action

then I guarantee you this…

By this time next year, your life will be like someone else’s and you either have or be on your way to having everything in life you could ever hope for… Full stop

- Nothing left out - Nothing left to chance - No confusion - Straight talking - No nonsense

No - I’m not going to show you how to ‘game’ google for a few weeks (generally about as long as those kind of tactics last)  Neither am I going to include some new software program that posts crap to twenty five million blogs (in the hope you get slightly more visitors than you do abuse complaints)

And no I’m not going to teach you some sly tricks to fool people opening your emails or conning them into buying just about anything you can find that gives them zero value.

What you will learn about is how to build a *PROPER* online business - One with SOLID products, brilliant marketing and long term business growth

Real stuff - The things that when you apply them properly will not just make you rich, but will keep your kids and their kids in college and living a better life.  Proper marketing - sensible and straightforward

If you read the sales letter and began to think -

“Oh this is way to much for me to learn” (or something like that) then… and sorry I know this is going to get some people scrambling for the exit here because it’s to ‘close to home’

but you are either

a) not cut out to start and grow a successful business

b) condemning yourself to another 12 months of the same

Sure there’s lots to learn - It’s a business… And your going to have to build it, grow it, stock it, and live it every day…

Sorry but if you want to know the ‘truth’ about making a lot of money online it’s this “There is no magic button”  - No magic pill

- No crazy machine that prints money by flicking a switch and going back to bed or sitting back in front of the TV - You deserve the truth and you deserve better!

We know - In the world right now people are losing their jobs, their homes, and more…  We live in a society that is clinging on to the idea that being an ‘employee’ is still the right thing to do.

And okay for some (the magic button pressing brigade) it is…  But there are more and more people every day who are beginning to realize that the industrial society, the grand scale manufacturing industries, the traditional ‘job for life’ workplaces are failing - Society is evolving.

There are no more jobs for life - Heck these days a job for a year is bonus (And the bravest thing you can do right now is stand up and take control of your own future)

It doesn’t matter - whether you’re 18 and fresh out of school with no chance of landing a ‘well paid secure job’ or whether - you’re 75 and sick on living on a miserable pension that just allows you to scrape by.

The thing *everyone* shouldn’t be afraid of is having to sit down for a few weeks, tune out the garbage and learn about how to change things around for themselves - The thing to really be afraid of is standing still

Watching the world pass you by

Leaving it up to someone else

And putting up with things you’d rather not…

You can change things round.  You can grab life by the shirt collar and shake it in your direction… It’s up to you to want it bad enough.  With this foundation launch of Web Based Wealth 250 people are going to get access to the site and course at least 3 months before the main product release in the spring of 2009 and while I can’t guarantee you’ll become the next ‘dot com millionaire’

I will say that you stand a fighting chance to change and shape your future and mould it exactly how you want… And if that future involves making so much money you can build a house from $10 dollar bills in time for Christmas 2009 then that’s cool…  Because you will have at your fingertips the resources, the information and the tactics to do it

It’s time to change the game plan folks

It’s time to turn those baby steps into big, bold strides and to kick some serious butt!

Because even if ‘Web Based Wealth’ is the last ever course on Internet Marketing you buy (and you’ll see why it could be over at www.webbasedwealth.com ) then take my word for it BIG strides will be what you will be capable of.

- If you have tried so many things before and feel like giving up - take this one last shot…

If you’re fed up, and sick of your job, invest in this course

If you need more cash, more free time, or a better life take the plunge

If you want to change yourself (or the world around you) then take action - be there and be bold

To Your Success

Anyone who has a Website obviously wants that Website to rank as well as possible with the search engines and especially with the largest search engine of all, Google. Getting a higher search engine ranking means more visitors to your site, which means more money for you. In this article you’ll get some very important tips for how to improve search engine ranking with Google.

The exact way to get a great search engine ranking isn’t known. This is because Google uses a formula to rank Websites and nobody knows what the precise formula is. Plus Google changes the formula regularly. But there are some important criteria that Google uses and if you concentrate on these areas then your sites will rank very well with Google.

1.Backlinks

One of the major criteria Google uses to rank Websites is the number of links that go to your site. These links are called “backlinks” since they lead back to your site. The more backlinks your site has the better it will rank.

2.Quality of Content

You want to have good content on your site and you want the content to all relate. Google will look to make sure that you have related topics. The more related topics you have – the more information on one subject – the higher your site will rank. If your site is sparse of contains unrelated information then Google will penalize it.

3.Visitors Time on Site

Another important factor for search engine ranking, one that’s often overlooked, is the time visitors spend on your site. If people click on your site then immediately click back out then that tells Google that your site must not be any good. Therefore your site will get knocked down in the rankings.

4.Age

The longer your site has existed the better it will rank.

5.Keywords

You want to make sure you include important keywords throughout your site. And then you also want to make sure you include related keywords too. This will help your site come-up when the keywords are searched and it will also tell Google that your site is full of great information. This will greatly help your ranking.

There are five very important tips for how to improve search engine ranking with Google. If you concentrate on these five things then you will improve your site’s rankings over time. The good thing (or bad thing depending how you look at it) is the higher you rank the easier it is to rise to the top. It’s like getting a giant ball rolling down hill. So focus on these five aspects for how to improve search engine ranking with Google, and you will see better and better results.

4 Keys To Great Sales Letters
icon1 Simon | icon2 Articles, Tips & Ideas | icon4 07 31st, 2008| icon3Comments Off

4 Keys To Great Sales Letters

If you have a product or a service to sell then you need a sales letter. Your sales letter is the most important tool for making money. If you have a great sales letter than people will pay you money to get their hands on whatever you’re offering. If you have a bad sales letter, people are going to click off of your site and never return. That’s why it’s so important to write a great sales letter.

The best sales letter writers have been practicing their craft for years. They have a lot of experience. They also have a lot of knowledge. Now, obviously the only way to gain experience is for you to actually sit down and write a lot of sales letter.  (Since I got online I’ve personally written over 250 direct response style letters and I’m still no Pro!)

The knowledge part of sales letter literally takes dozens (if not hundreds) of books and articles in order to gain all the knowledge you need.  And even then there’s always something new to learn - but when you know that everything you do learn is going to put more money in your pocket then it’s not really a chore is it? :) 

However, there are four easy steps that even a amateur can use to write a good sales letter.

The first key to writing a great sales letter is putting your best benefit in the headline of the sales letter. Don’t tell the person what the product or service does. Tell them what it will do for them. Will it make them pain free? Will it make them richer? Will it make them successful? Whatever the main benefit is, make sure you put it in the headline of the sales letter.

The second key for writing a great sales letter is to make your writing reader friendly. This means you write in language that’s easy to understand. It also means you keep your paragraphs short and you keep a nice flow to your writing. Reading a sales letter shouldn’t be an ordeal for anyone.

The third step to a great sales letter is called “the slippery slope”. This simply means that you want to hook your reader right at the beginning of the sales letter. Then you want to keep them sliding right down the slide you’ve built until they click the “Buy Now” button at the end of the letter. 

Finally, the last of the four keys to writing a great sales letter is to actually ask the reader to buy your product or service. Seriously this is often overlooked.  I’ve seen countless ’sales pages’ with no call to action.  Too many site owners forget to ask the reader to hit the “Buy Now” button.  (or feel weird about asking?)  So don’t you forget to ask for the purchase from the prospective buyer. It could make all the difference between making a sale or not making a sale.

Be under no illusion, writing a great sales letter isn’t an easy task. It usually takes people years to get good at it. However, there are some things you can do right away to make your own sales letters better. These four keys for writing a great sales letter are putting the best benefit in the headline, writing an entertaining and easy to read letter, creating a “slippery slope”, and actually asking the reader to buy from you.
