Comment Kahuna
Posted by: | CommentsMy head has been spinning lately, have you ever felt that way? I am involved in so many things right now, its crazy! I am finding it hard to juggle all the balls I have in my hands, but I am going to do it. I told you on my last post I have been working on a video series and will be uploading it into Traffic Geyser. I am still working on this project, but I should be ready to get this done within the next week or so. I’ll be sure to keep you in the loop. In case you didn’t know, starting out in Internet Marketing can be a mind blowing experience. How so? You sign up for various free products only to open your email inbox and realized those one or two free products you signed up for, are now taking up 50% of your emails. I experienced this early on, what about you? I had to learn how to pick products wisely. I did this by ones I needed right now versus in the future. It has saved me countless hours of frustration and email space. I want to tell you about one of the products I have found to be useful in generating traffic and backlinks.
In case you haven’t picked up a copy, try Comment Kahuna! I signed up for the software and it got loss in the shuffle, until I realized it was very useful in blog hopping. What does Comment Kahuna do? CK as I call it, lets you search high traffic blogs within your niche and comment on them. This is very important when you are starting out and want to draw traffic to your blog. If you can comment on a high traffic blog, believe me you’ll get some traffic to your little space on the net. In addition, CK helps you get valuable backlinks for your site. Backlinks are extremely important if you plan on raising your google page rank. Are you going to give Comment Kahuna a try? You would be crazy not to because it is free! Clink on the link below to check it out.
Give Comment Kahuna a try!!!!!

Internet Marketing: Explode Your Traffic with Traffic Geyser
Posted by: | CommentsRecently, I have been researching new ways to drive traffic to my blog and to build my list. These are very important things to the success of any website or blog. So, what is out there that can help you with this? I have been attending Alex Jeffrey’s Marketing With You academy and reviewing the modules. AJ as I like to call him, is great at delivering top notch content and you learn so much through attending the marketing class. I can’t tell you how many tips and “little” things I have picked up in these modules that I have implemented and gotten results. It was through one of AJ’s bonus calls in an interview that I was introduced to Traffic Geyser and a woman named Maria Andros.
Maria Andros is the video marketing queen! She had previously worked for a cosmetics company and had grown tired of the long hours and wanted to break away from her job. Does this sound familiar? I know a couple of IMers that want to do the same thing! Maria started with a tool called Traffic Geyser and to put it bluntly, “caught fire” and began to build her presence online. She is now financially independent and credited her success to Traffic Geyser and using video to establish her presence on Google and build her list. It didn’t take me long to explore Traffic Geyser and I can tell you it is well worth the 97.00 per month you are paying for it. Here are some of the options you get:
- Tutorials which walk you step by step on how to use it
- Free ebook on the psychology of Marketing
- Your videos can be transcribe into articles
I am really excited about being able to transcribe the videos in articles! This can come in handy for the article submission sites. I have only just begun to explore this tool and I’ll let you know more about and the results I have gotten from it in a later post. Talk at ya later.

Internet Marketing: Come join me in the dojo
Posted by: | CommentsHey… have you ever wondered if your sites , blogs, etc. will get any visitors? Do you just put up your sites haphazardly and “hope” you’ll get enough visits to maintain interest or even make money? I just wrote a two part post on traffic so its been a big concern of mine and I would guess it should be a concern with you! You can’t sell anything online if you can get visitors your site, correct?
Have you ever heard about Search Engine Optimization or SEO? Yeah, I know it sounds like a flying sauer and I had some problems with all the Internet Marketing acronoymns myself and honestly I still do! SEO is something you need to know about before you start to construct a site “hoping” to make money online. Why is this so important to do? Well… SEO can mean the difference in having a site that can potentially make lots of cash versus having a site which could “fizzle” out in less than a month. Do I have your attention now?
The practice of SEO is researching keywords that people may type into search engines to find your site. For example, if I go to google and type in rubber bands, thousands of sites will come up, hence rubber band is a keyword you might use if you were selling that product. But… I can tell you that the keyword rubber band might have thousands of competitors in that niche making it unattractive from a monetary standpoint. At this time, most people would pack up call it a day and move on, right? What if you had a tool to drill down deeper so you can find a micro niche to sell your rubber bands using a related keyword? Well, such a tool does exist and its called Market Samurai. I recently used this tool to do research for keywords for my first articles to post on article submission sites. It really took the guesswork out of everything for me. I was able to drill down to several micro niches that have a respectable amount of traffic, so I know my site will get visited. It takes some time to learn how to use MS, but to speed things along you get tutorials which will help you. In addition, I used YouTube and found others who are using this tool and got more tips. Heres the best thing! Market Samurai gives you a free trial for up to 30 days ( I think) and during that time they offer a discount on the full purchase price before the trial ends. They don’t have an affiliate program so I am not getting paid for this, but I just thought it was one tool you need to have in your arsenal. Check out the link below and click on to start your trial. I can tell you it is worth it and will pay for itself a thousand times!

Stuck in Traffic Part 2
Posted by: | CommentsHello! It’s been a three day weekend for me but its slowly coming to an end. I had a chance to unwind and catch up over the past weeks. I can finally finish up the post on traffic and what I have been doing to increase traffic for my site. By the way, have you set up your blog yet? If you haven’t, you need to get a blog up now!!! Let the world know you exist and get your name out there. This is the first step. You can find out how to set up a blog by getting the free report located here . Once your blog is established then you are ready to use the following methods to generate traffic.
• Blog hopping- In this method , you’ll visit various blogs within your niche and leave comments. How will this work? When you leave comments, you can leave your name and blog address and people who read the comments will more than likely click on your name and will be redirected to your site. Trust me… it works! Use the most well known Internet marketing blogs so you can get some of their overflow of traffic.
• Social Media- Do you have a Twitter or Facebook page? You need to get one! Facebook and Twitter are easy ways to generate traffic. You can even install a plugin on your blog which goes directly to these social media outlets once you post.
• Forums- Visit internet marketing forums and help others out with questions or issues they may be having with their blogs, programs, etc. One of the forums I use is warrior forum.
• Press release- I learned about this one from Alex Jeffreys training class! Did you know you can write your own press release? I did one for toxic beauty. This is my girlfriend’s site and she’ll be appearing on blogtalk radio on February 23rd at 3:00 pm, est. I really want to thank Alex for this tip as I had no idea on doing a press release. If you don’t know how to write one, just google it and find a template… very easy to do. I caution you on press releases, they must be newsworthy! Only do a press release when you have created a product and you are launching it or if there is some groundbreaking news about your site, product, etc. you want to relay. What are some methods you have used to increase traffic?
