This morning, before my work day started I was checking my email and followed a link from a fairly trusted source of internet marketing information. One of the few lists I'm still on, although now, I'm not sure why. Anyway, I followed the link to a product ~ Joe Vitale was involved and I like him which is why I checked it out.

August 19, 2008 By 30 Comments
If you planning to use article marketing as part of your Internet Marketing Strategy you will soon realize you have to write a LOT of articles to get the job done, no matter what you are trying to do.

I hear from people all the time, "I'm not a writer" or "I can't write". Some of these people turn to PLR articles, and use articles that a million other people … [Read more...]

August 16, 2008 By
If you want to receive organic traffic from search engines you sites have to rank at the top of Google for your desired keywords. This has always been my downfall.

Until I found out about article submission that is. Now I read Bum Marketing Method a long time ago, and what Travis is doing is quite different than what … [Read more...]

She also provides example niche websites so you can see how … [Read more...]

Whether you feel like an expert or not, having a website with a lot of information about one topic can make you appear that way. Today I received this email from a reader of one of … [Read more...]
