PLR Article Software

Sometimes things come across my desk that I just find too amazing for words and I have to say that the latest software from James Jones ( author of Micro Niche Finder) comes into that category.

PLR Article Software is a software package that has over 20,000 articles in it that have no copy write on them so you are free to use them as they are or you can spin them into lots of different articles.

In the video on the sales page James will show you right before your eyes how you can type into the search box for whatever topic you want, then all the articles come up on the page, you can then go through and select the articles you want and then the magic begins... you can then press a couple of buttons and "hey-presto" you have an e-book all ready to go with chapters or what ever way you would like the contents to be displayed. It really is amazing, and really takes away any excuses you might have had when you said you had nothing to give away on your web site...
Now you do, it really is awesome software, so go over to the site and take a look.

Imagine if you could create an eBook in just 10 minutes and then put it up on your site as a giveaway just so you could build a database.... as we all know Database is king, I say that over and over.

Easy way to make money

It really is an easy way to make money and build your list at the same time. In time you will be able to add your own articles and then there will be nothing to hold you back :-)
Go check it out, don't waste any more time reading here, it's time to check it out buy it, and start making ebooks... don't forget you can even send the books into Amazon and have them there available to download free or even sell them.... it's endless...

New FTC Guidelines

As of the 1st Dec the new FTC guidelines came into being.... what does that mean for you and me... well if you are an Affiliate promoter of any sort, then there are some guidelines that you need to take a look at...

Now it's all pretty simple... there is much discussion out there and it's abit hard to find the real answer as it's abit hard to find people who agree.

So let's take a look and not make it all too hard...



I am not a lawyer so and therefore the information provided in this post is my opinion only and not legally binding. It is solely your responsibility to ensure you interpret the FTC guidelines for yourself. Here is a link to the FTC site for you: FTC Guidelines and also read the guidelines.

The first thing that I want to say is that I personally think that what the FTC are doing is a good thing, and I support it. After all they are essentially cleaning up the internet and removing dodgy non-transparent websites. There are lots of sharks and charlatans out there so it is good to keep a handle on it all. There has to be laws to cover those who think they are above the law...

How many of you have read a testimony and then you find that you have been scammed. I don’t think it is fair when you read a so called testimony about someone’s experience with a product that is either completely false, or an extreme example and no way likely to be the result the average user would experience.

The classic copy writing technique of telling a story along the lines of “I struggled with XYZ also, and I tried everything but nothing helped, then I tried AFFILIATE PRODUCT, and it fixed XYZ immediately, you should try it too!!”, I feel is now a thing of the past, and rightly so. We also need to be very careful that we don't fall into the trap of saying we are using this or that program when it is clear that we are not..

Everybody, and I am sure you included, want a fair deal and to be told the truth, and this new policy from the FTC demanding transparency is only going to create that for us all. So it's a good thing and all we need to do is play by their rules and we will be fine.

Although the Big Gun websites will most likely be the target of the FTC first, it does not mean that small affiliates are exempt, and if you do get a fine from the FTC they are $11,000 each violation, so not something you really want to be messing with. However you do get a warning first apparently, but best not to go there I think.

I don't think we need to be afraid we just need to be careful that we don't give false evidence and neither do we promote products that we find really hard to believe even with testimonials.

Just in case you live outside of the United States like I do, please don’t be fooled into thinking that these new rules don’t apply to you, because if you are marketing to someone in the United States then you are liable.

What Am I Doing?

Well to be honest with you, I have done nothing as yet, but now I am clear on what to do I will be going my way through my sites and sorting them out. I have affiliate links in the pages of my sites that d not clearly explain my relationship to the merchant, ie. that I get commission from this relationship.

-

Therefore from what I understand of the FTC new guidelines, is that they require affiliates to disclose all their links and inform the visitor that their links are in fact sponsored links, and also disclose if they have never actually used the product they are recommending. So that's exactly what I will be doing... I will add on my pages that these are sponsored links, and if I have not used the product then I will state that I have not...

-

So here is what I will be doing..... an example from a Internet Marketer I admire.. on my websites I will place a sentence underneath each affiliate link that says: ‘The above link is a sponsored affiliate link, the owner of this site is not a bona fide user of this product”.......
-
-

So if you have not actually tried a product then you must make that clear so that the visitor to your website is aware of that, and they are also aware that you get paid commission from the merchant for recommending their products.

-

If you are a product owner then there are some more things that you need to know and once again I encourage to read the guidelines for yourself. However one key thing that I took from the guidelines is that the use of testimonials has changed. You are no longer allowed to include a testimonial and simply state that the result may not be typical, and the FTC now require ‘Generally Expected Results’.

-

From what I can gather ‘Generally Expected Results’ are scientifically proven, with data, and reflect an average result for a certain number of people tested. So you can no longer place any testimonial you like on your websites, and instead must do the required testing, and if you can, then include ‘Generally Expected Results’.

Check The Merchants Out!

As an affiliate you can also be held liable if the merchant that you are recommending is not meeting the guidelines of the FTC. So make sure that you review the merchants claims and ask them also if they feel they are inline with the FTC rules.

What Sites Should I Be Updating?

The most simple and safe bet is all your sites. Whether they be on social media sites like Squidoo, or Twitter posts, or Wordpress blogs, it doesn’t matter, you still must be transparent.

However if you have banner ads on your site, that are clearly advertising then apparently these are fine and do not require any further disclosure, because they are considered obvious advertising and one would assume that the website owner is receiving some form of payment for including the advertisement.

That’s all from me, and once again I am not a lawyer so please read the guidelines for yourself.

I trust that is helpful to you all... I must thank Matt for his help on this.

It's all clear now... So you know what to do... go and do it.

How Affiliate Marketers Can Give Google the Slap

I've used a lot of different affiliate marketing methods and find one of them to be the most effective.

Article marketing is cool, except the article directory gets to keep all the ad revenue and they are getting more particular about what articles they accept.

Review sites are OK, but does anyone really trust the reviews they read on those sites anymore? Most people know by now that review sites are just disguised sales pitches and aren't honest reviews.

Social media is fun, but it has its limits. It's more about socialising, less about doing business. Sure, you can make connections there but at the end of the day the lion's share of your profits likely isn't coming from social media. Social media sites are not the most important place on the web.

So what is?

Your own blog. .....

.....In my opinion, there's nothing like having your own blog, especially if you use WordPress. WordPress makes blogging much easier and more effective.

Your blog is your castle. YOU get to decide which content to put on it and don't have to wait a week for someone else to approve it.

YOU get to keep your ad revenue. If you use Google Adsense, however, chances are it's more like Google Adcents. And don't get me started on Google slaps.

That's why it's more effective to promote affiliate products on your blog rather than rely on Adsense. Affiliate commissions have a much higher payout than ad clicks.

One option is to have a "blog sponsor" section in your sidebar. Place ads here (preferably with eye-catching graphics rather than just text) that link to select affiliate products and also your own products if you have any.

Another option is to occasionally write a blog post that promotes an affiliate product. The posts should contain solid content in addition to the sales pitch. Write the post as if you were talking to a friend so that it doesn't come across as too sales-y.

Don't forget to have an opt-in form on your blog so that you can collect the email addresses of your blog readers.

You can occasionally promote affiliate products through email to your list. You should also send out emails that contain helpful, engaging content. You can use your blog posts as content but you should also use original content in your emails too. Mix it up.

WordPress Affiliate Plug-In

There's one type of text ad that I highly recommend and that's WordPress Affiliate plugin that automatically inserts professional-looking ads for Clickbank products on your blog:

I think you need to go to the site and check out the video, Plug-In's are amazing and I have proved it time and time again that a Wordpress Blog will get to front page of Google if it has the correct SEO on it than anything else.

Facebook and Twitter Link

I try to make my life as easy as possible. When I discovered I could link my Facebook and Twitter together I was over the moon, so to speak :-)

Great idea, every time I updated my Twitter account it would update my Facebook, then I learned I could link my YouTube Account and then my Blog account.

Now things were looking up. :-)

So what I decided to do was show you all how to do it... so I got a video together and here it is.

Easy Money Making Ideas - But You Must Use The Right Tools

I was helping someone out the other day as they were trying to get a New On-Line Business up onto the internet. They did that with no real problem, but what he could not do was get from no where in Cyber-land to page one of Google.
He had no clue how to do that. ... "Well that was the easy part.... I said..."

I can get on the front page of Google pretty quickly these days, and after 90 minutes I had this person at the top of page two, so I imagine he should be on page one by now if he did as I suggested.

Tools and know how are what you need to be successful on line.
There are many selling alsorts of things out there to take your hard earned cash but really all you need is someone to take you by the hand and show you.

To get on Page One of Google is really all about keywords and finding the right ones, then using them throughout your blog post or page, or video.

The biggest losers in this are the small business owners. They pay big money for their websites and no one knows they are there. How can this be fixed. My keyword tool I use all day long is brilliant for finding keywords Easy Niche Finder
