Month of May and June was a busy month for me. I was basically rushing through tons of reports and assignments for my school work. I was not aware of any events or happenings in Success University and I was literally thrilled to receive SU monthly empowerment series. In the package enclosed are May's Newsletter, an audio CD by Jim Rohn on his 12 pillars of Success and a DVD by Les Brown on Choose Your Future. A great bonus which literally cost less than $6 just for its shipping charge and I get to enjoy two personal development package tag at $49 for the CD and $69 for the DVD.
One of the sections of the Newsletter profiles the Success of SU's Top Leaders and for someone who likes quotes, I am sharing with you some of inspiring sentences from the leaders.
"People are either going to make excuses or have success, you can't have both. I choose Success!" - Johnny Wimbrey, Vice Presidents
"I have a willingness to take risk and fail. I am not held back by fear of failure which I think is key. I learn from my mistakes if I fail!" - Paul Birdsall, Executive Directors
"When I came across Success University I saw it as means to further develop myself long-term with the tools and skill necessary to survive in the twenty-first century." - Harry Ogunnaike, Executive Directors
"I believe knowledge is useless if we do not share it or take action" - Feza Sengul, Director
"I now get to spend quality time with those I love and help people all over the world achieve their goals and dreams. I cannot think of a better business to be in." - John O'Driscoll, Director

Strategic Internet Marketing Sure Win Ways to Generate Sales
If you'd like to increase your long-term affiliate income then I think you'll enjoy this article.
It can sometimes get overwhelming when you're trying to build a profitable internet marketing business no matter how much experience you have. Somehow you always seem to get the feeling like you are missing something. Well here's the good news...You're not alone :)
Most affiliates are continously searching for more effective methods to maximize their income. That's why I am going to outline the most strategic internet marketing methods that super affiliates are using to market their products - perhaps there's a strategy you may not have thought of that could potentially boost your earnings.
1.) Create a Minisite.
Yes, a minisite! It's a simple website that pre-sells the product. You might think this is redundant since there is a main site that says everything anyway, but trust me this works. You can refer to this minisite which I create even though there is a main site for the program I am promoting. The other MAJOR advantage is it also allows you to collectan opt-in before the person exits from your site. Good affiliates use this as an opportunity to follow up with these people who have expressed an interest in their products (I'll talk about follow-up in a second).
2.) Write YOUR PERSONAL ENDORSEMENT!
On this site, don't talk about how great the product is. Charles "Tremendous" Jones said, "Never give a point without a story and never tell a story without a point." You see, people want to know how it worked for you and how it may work for them. So by hearing your story, they begin to visualize and relate to your situation. Both increaseyour odds of them buying the product.
3.) Create a Mailing list!
Yes, I know this sounds like a lot of work, but in this case, a little bit of extra effort can pay dividends many times. Creating your own mailing list is an investment for today, tomorrow and every other day that follows. It gives you control and maximizes every effort you put forth in promoting any product because now you have an opportunity to communicate with these people over and over. Instead of always relying on new people clicking on your links you now have an opportunity to sell more products to the same people who have already expressed an interest. It's much more effective and the sales process is actually easier in the long-run. So take a few minutes and think of something you can offer them in exchange for their Name and Email Address. Here are some quick ideas...Free Report - it could outline advanced strategies when using the product. A Demonstration Video - this gives people a "behind-the-scenes" look before they buy.Checklist - a quick list of "things to remember" while using the productCase Study Examples - provide specific examples of how you used the product and the results you gained. Hopefully those will get you started :)
4.) Follow-up With Your Prospects.
This is all handled by an autoresponder anyway so as soon as you do it once, you can then forget about it. The easiest way to create a dynamite follow-up sequence is to just reiterate the main points expressed on the salesletter. It's fast, it's easy and it's effective. Just make sure to always include your affiliate link in every message!
What you need to know here is how to create a squeeze page (miniset that people can opt-in by providing email, name and contact no.) If you know basic html programming, you can use Microsoft Frontpage or use a free editor like Morzilla to create your miniset or another free software PageBreeze that functions like Frontpage.
You need to get a domain name which is akin to traditional business address. You need to get a web host to host your web which is akin to renting a location for your traditional business. You need an autoresponder to capture your opt-ins and a automatic email manager to send out emails to your opt-in regularly.
To get a good web host, autoresponder and automatic email manager, I highly recommend a All-In-One Service which caters to everything at an affordable monthly rate.

Keyword Research To Improve Search Engine Ranking
Let's continue from where we left off... How do you ensure your keyword is a good and has competitive edge over the rest? What keyword tools can be used to improve search engine ranking? What is the purpose of choosing good keywords in your articles? The answer to the third question is simple. You want your articles to rank on top of the search engine. Other than that, you need to think of what your targeted prospect are looking for before finding the right keyword which has a higher chance of your prospect keying into the search engine and hence, finding your articles. To determine how popular your keyword is being searched, you may go to freekeywords.wordtracker.com or inventory.overture.com.
For example, to know if a keyword is profitable for your internet marketing business, I go to inventory.overture.com. Let's say I have a keyword <Best home-based business opportunity> and I key into overture. I obtain a search count of 6700. Next, I proceed to google.com and key in the keyword <"Best home-based business opportunity">. I include the open and close inverted comma to make the keyword a phrase-match keyword because I want the site which has my keyword in their phrase to show up. If I did not include the inverted comma (broad-based keywords), any sites with the word 'best' or 'home-based' or 'business' will show up which is not what I want. You can see the difference in the results between a phrase-match and broad-based keywords. Using a phrase-match keyword, the result from google shows 86,000 sites which is related to best home based business opportunity.
By performing a simple calculation of using search count divided by google results, which in my case is 6700/86000. The larger the value you obtain in this calculation meaning there are less competitors using this keyword in their sites. Obviously,You want a keyword which is popular in search by your prospect and less competition from other sites.
Another measure of your keyword's effectiveness is the Keyword Effectiveness Index (KEI) in wordtracker.com. Take a free trial to determine the KEI of your keywords. The higher your keyword's KEI, the lesser the competition for this keyword. It also means there may be considerably high searches for this keyword. In short, a keyword with KEI > 10 means it is a good keyword while a KEI > 100 must be a god-send one.
If you are really bend into obtaining niche keywords which you can make thousands from Adsense publishing or for good page ranking for your site on search engine. I would recommend you strongly to a software product, Keyword Elite by Brad Callen.
If you want to get number 1 or 2 ranking in the top three search engines (yahoo, google and msn) without spending thousands on SEO experts, I give Derek Gehl's private "Search Engine Marketing Lab" my very highest recomendation.

Write articles to your route of success
I know many people are simply put off by writing essays or articles but it is something unavoidable if you want to venture into online business. True enough that there are many strategies of promoting your products or services online, but article writing is one of the best and proven method to date. Writing an article is free; all it needed from you is your time and register yourself with some articles submission site.
These are some of the sites which I submit my articles to. They are http://EzineArticles.com; http://searchwarp.com; http://GoArticles.com and http://IdeaMarketers.com. There are more articles submission site you can find on the net. I chose these four because they are one of the highest ranking submission site especially EzineArticles. Your articles stand a higher chance of being ranked high in search engines such as google.com or yahoo.com by submitting your articles to these sites.
So, let's discuss on the process involve. You don't simply write something out of the blue. Firstly, you need to know your purpose of writing articles which is simply to make your products or services known to your reader. Am I right? You are using your article as a mechanism to promote your business. Therefore, the written subject should be related to what you are promoting.
For instance, I am promoting Success University which is an online personal development program. Being a Learn and Earn program, I gain access to hundreds of personal development products and at the same time earning commission through promoting this weducation (web-education) to others. On my part of doing promotion, I write article related to this personal development program to promote this business of mine. For instance, I write an article of how to promote an online business which is very much relevant.
After knowing your purpose and topic of interest you are going to pen down, the next step is to do a keyword research. Keyword research is simply finding out how popular the keyword is. Keywords are words that you type on the google, yahoo or any search engine's text box. A popular keyword for my online business would be "best home base business". But how do I know if this keyword is good and popular?
Stay tuned for more on my next posting.......

Zero Cost Internet Marketing Tool to drive targeted traffic
Have you participated in any forums? Do you know that forum is an effective medium to many internet marketer for creating backlinks and driving targeted traffic to their site? Forums are discussion boards for group of people to share their views, insights, problems, solutions and feedbacks on a common topic. Forum marketing is one of the most efficient way of creating passive traffic to your site. It is certainly a low or no cost method to promote your site through the forum's signature link.
Joining a forum is to make your site presence to forum participants. Depending on your products or services you are promoting, you may want to join a forum's thread which is related to your products. This is to ensure that you are publicizing to a group of targetted people who have prior knowledge or interest in your products. In this case, the chances of hitting sales will be higher.
To find a suitable forum you can join, you will need to know where your main interest is and your target market. For my case, the forums which I join to promote my Success University Earn and Learn program are marketing secrets, hardware zone, warrior and rich dad forums and my target markets are network marketers or any one who desires to start a home-based business. These four forums are generally very active forums with high quality exchange of informations.

Daegan Smith was here on 17th May
I attended Daegan Smith seminar yesterday organised by OnlineIncomeHub, local support for Success University. It was an eye-opening presentation by a 26 years old who is on his way to million dollar income. Imagine getting 20 over checks monthly amounting to $30K - $50k and he has 6000 downlines in Success University. How about getting an income he is receiving right now? I want that, don't you?
What I want to bring across in his 2 hours speech is not flaunting the amount he earns monthly or how many downlines he has right now in Success University. What I want to impress upon everyone is his perserverance, determination and never quit attitudes towards his online business venture. Before June 2005 when he came across Success University, he joined numerous online business adopting many strategies to promote his products. He tried cold callings, buying leads but months after months, his effort was not paying him what he deserved. Now doubt, he made some money from his mlm business, pyramid business and affiliate marketing, but it was simply insufficient. He never gave up and continued to read and listen to personal development and marketing programs. To date, he still spends thousands on personal development products to constantly improve himself.
