Posted on 13. Mar, 2010 by Casper.
It seems lots of people are using do follow blogs to create backlinks to their site, thus increasing their visitors and their placements in search engines. I have decided to create my own Dofollow blog directory, and hopefully using out of date blog lists is now behind us 
The site is still under development, but I have added blogs already and will continue to add new blogs dayli. (have around 50+ more blogs to add at the moment).
I hope users will help me maintain it by reporting bad links and those blogs that have turned no-follow.

WordpressTrafficPlugins.com Review – Do They Work?
Posted on 28. Sep, 2009 by Casper.
So it is time again for a product review. This time I have tested 3 plugins from the Clickbank product “WordpressTrafficPlugins“. Let’s get right to it and see what happens when you download these plugins and put them to work.
Once the packet is downloaded you have 3 plugins that does very different things: Poster Pro, Socialize-It Pro and as a bonus The RSS Aggregator.
Poster Pro:
I simple plugin that allows you to upload multiple articles and shedule them for later publishing. Articles can be added to chosen category, and will be tagged automatically.
Socialize-It Pro:
This plugin is the reason I bought this product. It automatically bookmarks your post when it gets published. It comes with 30 bookmarking sites but you can add or delete as many as you want. There is also a nice feature where you can choose how many percentages of the sites you want to use for a post to avoid any spamming problems. It can also send you an email with the stats of your bookmarking when you have published a new post.
The RSS Aggregator:
The RSS Aggregator let’s you fetch RSS feeds and post them to your own blog. Just adding the RSS feed and choose how many posts you want.
The three plugins are easy to install and also very simple to setup. They all work but with a few minor negative sides:
The Socialize it pro plugin takes time to setup as you have to manually register at each of the bookmarking sites and then enter the details for each site within your admin area. Also some bookmark submits are failing permanently, probably due to robot-prevention measures on the site.
The RSS Agregator needs some IT knowlegde as you need to setup a cronjob for it to work 100% on autopilot.
The Verdict:
I must admit that the Socialize-It Pro plugin it is really worth the money if you are looking for an easy way to bookmark your blog posts. Once you have it all setup you never have to worry about bookmarking again!

4 Creative Content Ideas For Affiliates That Get Read!
Posted on 09. Aug, 2009 by Casper.
Most people shy away from creating content for their affiliate websites because they have the feeling that they can’t write. Maybe you feel that same way? Writing fresh content for your website can get a little difficult as time goes on. The biggest block to new content is in the form of not being able to come up with fresh ideas. Here are four content ideas for affiliates that will get read and help you earn more affiliate commissions.
1. Product Reviews
The easiest thing to write about is something that you have used before and have had success with. For instance if you are a fisherman and are selling a specific king of bass lure, you can try several out and then write reviews for each one. This can be both good and bad. I recommend doing both so your website isn’t a love fest for all bass lures. Just write from the heart and give your honest opinion. I bad review will not lead to many sales, but will show your readers that you reviews are honest, and have your readers trust your opinion.
2. Interviews
This takes a little more time, but doesn’t require a lot of writing. Find an expert in your niche and either ask them for a phone interview or if you can simply send them some questions via email. Most of the time they will agree to this because it’s more exposure for them. Then either transcribe the phone call or put the email interview into a readable form and you’ve got your newest article.
3. Top 10 List
This is the most popular form of content there is. Mostly because it is more convenient for readers, but also because they can be quite easy. Just pick a topic, write down ten things about it, and just like that you’ve got another article.
4. Answer To A Question
If you see a question in a forum, on a blog, or in an email you received then simply answer it. Create a well thought out, and thorough, answer to it and post it on your blog or in an article directory. Of course, give credit to who asked it or where you got the question from.
If you are ever stumped for creative content for your affiliate website then just sit down with a blank piece of paper and choose on of these ideas. You’ll have your next article done in no time.

5 Successful Landing Page Tips For Affiliate Marketers
Posted on 08. Aug, 2009 by Casper.
Affiliate marketing, while a quick and easy way to get started with earning money online, is also a highly specialized form of marketing. There are several techniques and strategies that you can use to promote your affiliate products online, but very few work better than using a landing, or squeeze, page.
A landing page is mostly used in affiliate campaigns that utilize pay-per-click marketing, but should also be used with email marketing, paid ads on websites, and article marketing. Think of it as a place where you funnel all your traffic to distribute to other parts of your marketing campaign.
One of three things should happen once someone visits your landing page. One is they opt-in to your email list by signing up or a free download or video. Another would be to directly click to the merchant site for a direct sale. The last would be that they click to a blog, or listing of articles and information. Without one of these three things happening your landing page isn’t doing its job.
5 Successful Landing Page Tips For Affiliate Marketers:
· Open With A Compelling Headline – Catching the visitors attention as soon as they visit your site will pull them further into your page.
· Develop An Emotional Sub-Heading – Most people miss this part, but you want to create an emotional pull after you capture their interest with the heading.
· Make it personal – Affiliate marketing isn’t an anonymous form of marketing anymore. Keep the copy on your page personal in nature to build rapport and trust.
· Use a testimony or two – Let your visitors see reaction, recommendations, and praise from other customers.
· Ask for a response – Affiliates usually use a “Click here for…”, but what really works is to come out and ask. Ask them to download your free gift, ask them to click to the merchant, and ask them to visit your blog or articles.
Successful affiliate marketing starts with a successful landing page presence.

Article Marketing- A Way of Promoting Your Business
Posted on 30. Jul, 2009 by Casper.
Article marketing is a tactic that has been used long before the internet was available. It all started when the printed press appeared. Then people gave free information to the newspapers while they were offered to place their advertisement in that newspaper.
However, the internet has changed the meaning of article marketing. Even though based on the same principle, the online article marketing has developed considerable. Its dual role of providing free information and gaining free advertising space was kept, but the advantages it offers increased significantly.
How exactly the article marketing functions, you will ask. Well it is very simple. There are sites which look for people that will submit free articles. In change they will receive the right to advertise their site/product on that site without paying any additional fees.
These types of sites are called article directory. The more popular the article directory is the more people will see the article and may visit your site. At the same time the owner of the directory will gain more money from advertising.
There are many sites that offer this kind of services. The most visited ones are EzineArticles, GoArticles and IdeaMarketers. However, there are also directories that address to a certain niche. For this reason it is better to search for the article directories that suits best the purposes of your site/product.
Some of the article directories offer the possibility for the authors of the articles to control the whole page, including the advertising posted on that page. In this way the revenue collected from advertising comes to the author of the articles.
People from around the world get to know about your business, site, blog or product via your articles posted on the internet. That is why they need to be written in the best style possible and to represent you in the most appropriate manner.
Make sure that the title of the article is the best you could choose and that it fits properly to the content. Also be very careful about the way in which you express your ideas. Don’t use long phrases or hard to understand words and don’t write articles that are too long. This will annoy the readers and in the end your site will not be visited by any of those that have seen your article.
You should give special attention to the resource box as this is the place where you actually sell your site or product. It should contain your name and the name of the site as primary information. You can also add a small description of the site and an invitation for the visitor to sign up or just go to the specified address.
In order to attract the reader some authors make a summary of their article in which they tell the reader what to expect from it. This is usually considered an invitation to read the whole article and sometimes includes some additional information, which is not mentioned in the article.
If used wisely, the article marketing can bring a lot of visitors to sites. However, don’t exaggerate with the number of articles sent to these article directories. Not the number, but the quality of the articles influences the number of visitors your site will receive.
