Hosting Provider Strategies and the C-Class Secrets
It’s weird, but hosting might be the most overlooked issue you have to face when you consider developing an online business
(or when you simply want to consolidate it and further grow an existing one).
Whether you’re new to online marketing, or experienced, you rely on ONE thing: hosting.
If your host fails, no visitor will reach your page, no one will see your offer and no one will purchase.
You may have the most converting sales letter, squeeze page, it won’t be useless if your host suspended your account
because you’re overloading their server.
Imagine if you’ve spend the last 6 weeks to get new JV partners for your launch, and imagine if your server fails at the time
of launch. All your efforts are lost.
Then, you can even fear of loosing everything because your host would have missed a backup, or done something wrong when
configuring the backup. And it arrives everyday to the smartest webmasters!
What does it mean? Your most fundamental asset is your hosting as it is the ultimate limiting factor.
You should not ignore hosting issues in your business. Ignoring them could really harm your business and all of your efforts.
Here is a Free report a series from How To Turn Sites To Money from JP giving you some general insights on hosting, but also some more advanced tips on C-Class (it has to do with IP and Search Engine Optimization) Download Here
Wordpress Mass Installer - Blog Matrix Pro - Smart Auto Blogger Review
- New Owner Just Got Better?
I just received an email from the creator and the new owner of wordpress mass installer that it has found a new home and will be developed even further to improve the capabilities of wordpress mass installer. The new system will be named Blog Matrix Pro. Hey sounds familiar? Adspy pro ; Covert Conversion Pro? yes coz it now belongs to JP who is also the creator of these softwares.
Wordpress Mass Installer has been a powerful mass blogging management system for years and I believe Wordpress Mass Installer or Blog Matrix Pro will be even better now that we hear JP has new plans for it.
For those of you who are not familiar with wordpress mass installer, it is a mass blogging management system. The name wordpress mass installer actually does not describe the script well. As it is REALLY a blog GENERATOR and management system. The script can produce and generate multiple blogs in subfolders on the fly in minutes from just one install in one domain. You can imagine how powerful it is.
Hey, you may have read in one of my blog post about Smart Auto Blogger, another mass blogging script and ask what are their differences? Do they have the same functions? What are the differences:
Smart Auto Blogger does not generate blogs like Wordpress Mass Installer does, Smart Auto Blogger functions as an auto poster. It will post RSS feeds, contents, You Tube Videos and even Amazon products automatically to your blogs. You only have to configure and add your blogs (as many as you want) into Smart Auto Blogger and set how many days you want them to be posted and it will post for you accordingly. Smart Auto Blogger will also post to Blogger Blogs as well as Wordpress Blogs. It is also a mass blogging management system for blogs posting.
As for Wordpress Mass Installer - Blog Matrix Pro, it generates wordpress blogs on a fly, it can post RSS feeds contents just like RSS to Blog functions and articles too. But it will not post You Tube videos nor amazon products and cannot post to Free Blogger Blogs. The wordpress blogs also have to be hosted on one domain where Blog Matrix Pro is installed. Whereas, in Smart Auto Blogger, your blogs can be hosted anywhere in multiple domains and it will still do its job. Thats the power of Smart Auto Blogger.
With this, you will realise how powerful it is if you use the two scripts together! i.e. Using Blog Matrix Pro to generate multiple blogs on the fly, then use Smart Auto Blogger to auto posts contents into your blog especially if you want to create video blogs. Video blogs are actually quite popular now with the ability to post interesting you tube videos. Hence Smart Auto Blogger actually compliments Blog Matrix Pro.
If you have heard about these 3 powerful expensive tools: 1. XRay Domination costs $1500
2. Affiliate Radar costs $1164 per year
3. Xtreme Conversions costs $177
Then you are in for a treat, Covert Coversion Pro is THREE TIMES more powerful than the 3 tools mentioned above at 5% of the price!
If you have heard how successful AdsSpyPro is then you know why Covert Conversion Pro is so powerful yet affordable.
This is because Covert Conversion Pro is built with the same concept of AdsSpyPro which sold over 7000 copies that represents 90% of the market.
It is part of the better and cheaper program where JP (creator) goes to re-develop the best expensive software from the market and make it affordable for us to use. This is achieved by getting sponsors (me included) to fund the development of the products.
Now you too can enjoy 3X the benefits of powerful softwares like XRay Domination, Affiliate Radar, Xtreme Conversions at 5% of the price.
Covert Conversion Pro is the complete traffic and conversion tracking tool…
designed specifically to help you explode your online business by FULLY maximizing your ROI.
With it you’ll easily optimize your affiliate promotions, your sales page, your keyword targeting, your various “environments”, and more.
It is TRULY the holistic approach as it tracks and analyzes your entire online marketing machine…
The bottom line here is that Covert Coversion Pro tells you where your money is at,
and where you need to go to make more of it.
A friend of mine asked me if I have heard of Pay Per Post system. I found two online. One is PayPerPost.com where bloggers sign up and get paid for blogging. Companies or rather advertisers will pay bloggers to blog about their products. However, on the index page, I found that the top blogger for the month only earns about $1.800
That may be a lot of money to some, I dont know if I want to make only that amount after hours of blogging and that should not be your long term goal on making money online. It may work out for some people as you can blog about your interest and get paid for it. I am certain though that you have to blog positive things about the product.
The other I found was Paid to Post on Forums. It may be similar to pay per post but this is done through forums so I guess it should be more fun since there will be an interaction between forums members. Kind of like chatting, if you have been to forums then you should know what I mean. Some people like to go to forums and chat anyway, so why not get paid while you are doing it, discussing it or even arguing about a topic
So here you go, I havent personally explore these avenue of making money online but if forums and chatting is your cup of tea, then get paid to post in forums may be a better choice.

Thought I’d like to share this email with you I received from Project Black Mask Team. I am sure you will learn something on how to increase your adsense CTR (Click Through Rate) if you read carefully:
Let me tell you how a cheap and thoroughly unglamorous tool can triple your Adsense business without building any more sites, getting another link or driving a single visitor more than you have now.
As you can see, even though it doesn’t have the whiz bang other things have, it could end up having a much larger impact on your business and your bottom line than just about anything else.
Let me explain.
** Google Roulette **
If you’re playing it smart with your sites and Adsense account, you have your domains separated into channels. That way when you look at your reports in Adsense, you know approximately which sites or groups of sites are making good money and which ones aren’t.
This is precisely the data you use to build more of the ones that do well and drop the ones that don’t…
Now, here is what I have noticed time and again (this is especially glaring when you have only a few sites per channel): the money your earn per click is often completely out of whack from one day to the next.
Here’s what I mean. Some days, for the SAME EXACT SITE, I get 11 clicks at 3 cents a click. The next day, I get double the CTR, double the clicks, and I get 41 cents a click.
I think you can see how much of a difference it makes on my bottom line when Google is feeding me the good ads as opposed to the crappy ones…
** What Those Eggheads are Up To **
Here’s what’s going on: Firstly, since you have hundreds or thousands of pages per site, you don’t know which keywords or pages are bringing in the clicks. Those may change day by day.
You NEED to know what those are since they can boost your CTR and Payouts by 100 to 1000% or more.
But Google doesn’t want to tell you that.
** Adblock Killers **
Very very important. You probably have several adblocks per page on your templates. Here is how Google works with that:
They put the best and highest paying ads in the adblock that you have pasted first in your code. That means if the ads that look like they are most important are low performing sidebar ads, you are being shortchanged big time.
If your visitors are clicking on one adblock but not the other, you want to make darn sure that the one they are clicking on is the one that has the high paying ads in it and not vice versa.
Without an extra tracking tool, you will NEVER know this. Sometimes you can triple your earnings just by REMOVING an adblock from your page. It sounds ludicrous but it’s tried and tested, proven to be true.
** How To Change That **
Matt Callen, one of the foremost pioneers in VRE (Virtual Real Estate) and all around smar guy realized this problem a while back and created a software program called AdSpyTracker.
In short, it takes care of exactly the key points I’ve exposed above and you can now skyrocket your Adsense CTR ( Click Through Rate ) and easily triple your adsense income.
You have seen me blogging for awhile now, some of you have found this site through search engines and some from social bookmarking sites. I have been exploring wordpress for a month now and I must say I have mastered it. I love it! I even changed many of my websites to using Wordpress platform as they are easy to use, easy to update and many plug-ins to enhance the sites. I even updated my company websites to use Wordpress! That is how much I believe in it as I can see and already have seen the benefits of SEO and attracting traffic.
Social bookmarking is a huge traffic puller where communities share their bookmarks to the world. These bookmarking sites all have high PR. It is just like submitting to search engines directories but BETTER. Just like submitting articles to article directory but BETTER. Why? The web is all about web 2.0 now, interactions, exchanges and communities. When your sites are being social bookmarked, it means that your sites are well received by the community. Search engines will see your site as more popular and important. Some even say social bookmarking will soon replace search engines!
Now, can you imagine if you are able to social bookmark every page and post of your sites! How powerful is that? You can do that manually but it takes time.
The best thing about using wordpress is that with wordpress plug-ins, you are able to automate many of the things you need to do to attract traffic.
Now, Alvin is offering this really cool wordpress plug-ins that to his customers of Atomic Bloggingthat will automate social bookmarking everyone of your wordpress posts instantly to social bookmarking sites! I must say it will really save so much of my time to manually social bookmark my sites now. The value of the plug-ins itself is priceless for all the time that I will be saving. Watch how the plug-ins work in this video and see how instantly the post is social bookmarked as you press the publish button and what Atomic Bloggingis all about.
Funny name? I thought it was. Why would someone name a blog like this? If you ever think about blogging and you like celebrity news, you probably would blog about it.
Seems like the most popular blogs are all about celebrity news. Pink is the New Blog was voted by Yahoo as one of the most searched blogs in 2006!
Interestingly, the blog has a black background and all pink words and letters! At first I thought the name was The NEW Pink Blog but it really is Pink is the New Blog and it nothing to do with the celebrity PINK!
This blog has defies the theory of short and sweet branding ad naming of blogs or domain names. Hence this just prove that content is still KING! The blog is not even self hosted, its a blogger blog. Something for us to learn from this. Wanna check out PINK is the NEW BLOG ?

Wordpress 2 Visual QuickStart Guide is quite a popular book found at amazon to help beginners install and use wordpress for their blogs. Personally I love wordpress blogs as a content management website as you do not need to learn how to use FTP and you can post and blog anywhere you want with an internet connection.
there are mixed reviews for the book at Amazon and personally I feel that the guide will only be useful for wordpress beginners.
The first two chapters are a very short introduction to what blogging is, how it works and installing Wordpress.
In chapter 2 of the Wordpress Guide, you learn how to set the blog options in the administration panel aka the Dashboard that goes with WP.
In chapter 3 Adding Content is dealt further into the features of the WP admin panel that enable you to write some content, posts and associate posts with one or more categories of your choice! You will also learn how to format, edit and delete posts and pages, with help of the rich text editor and other features build-in the admin interface. Screenshots of the editor with a step-by-step guide show how you can format your content, add links and images (even without any knowledge of HTML).
With the admin panel you can manage your posts and pages — equally important! In this chapter you get to know how to manage images and links as well. Often you might like to upload images or import a series of links and that can be done.
Wordpress 2 Visual Quick Start Guide - Chapter 4 is dedicated to moderating comments. Comments can be deleted when inappropriate, and we have to deal with spam treats. Fortunately, you will learn in this chapter how to activate Aksimet, a descent spam filter!
A Wordpress blog has can be extended to more than one user. Chapter 5, shows user roles and capabilities in a table and how they can be assigned to the administrator of a Wordpress blog. Basically you learn how to manage these accounts.
In chapter 6, the template files of WordPress are introduced — a mixture of HTML and PHP. Understanding how the PHP templates work can be intimidating at first but reveals its functionality soon enough.
The infamous WP loop is basically a chunk of PHP that essentially displays your posts and pages you authored in the WP admin panel!
In chapter 7 Wordpress Plugins deals with some handy plugins to enhance your default WP installation. In short, you get to know how to enable useful plugins from the admin panel. Some plugins are handy to add functionality you would otherwise never could enable yourself. You can make also your own but would require very advanced skills most of the time. I won’t stop you from trying though!
In this chapter you learn how to simply add author info, web stats, favicons, google ads to your WP blog. This is rather a short chapter.
You are not limited to using the default WP admin panel, there are other solutions to manage your WP blog. There are Blogging tools some blogging software compared which can be used in WP.
In the final chapter of Wordpress 2 Visual Quickstart Guide is Advanced tasks, you will get familiar with some advanced stuff you can do within Wordpress. You will see alternative ways to edit posts while directly accessing the database, how to do podcasting in WP, import posts from other blogging engines, RSS feeds and other interesting to know stuff.
If you prefer to learn Wodpress Visually in a form of video training and a true visual quickstart guide, then Wordpress Videos 2.0 would be a better choice for you to learn about Wordpress , it even covers how you can build a Web 2.0 Wordpress system and monetize your blogs
