Getting Traffic and Money from Facebook can it be done?

January 9th, 2010 dansomers

I have noticed a ebook that is floating around  the webmaster forums and I thought I would share some of the contents of it with you as I have seen people paying a stupid amount of money for something that doesn’t really give much of a return plus it can get you into to some bother if you do it to the wrong sort of person.But read on and comment if you do have success!

As you know Facebook probably is the biggest social networking website on the internet at the moment and more than likely to be in top place for quite a while. Jump over to Alexa and check out its rating and you will notice it’s in the top 10 websites in the world. (Impressive, considering the idea was stolen in the first place).

Have you ever wondered how you can earn from this craze and get traffic flooding to your website at all?

Well I’m going to breakdown this ebook and show you how and the idea behind it and you can make up your own mind if you want to try it! Of course to get started you will need a Facebook account and do not use your main account if you have one as you will get banned sooner or later. Click here for Facebook.

Once you set up your new account make sure you leave a link  to your website or affiliate link on your profile , and then get ready to start a Facebook group that will be about your website, business or whatever. You really need to make sure your group is looking good and not just spammed with your domain name or affiliate links. Once you are happy with your group you will need to start adding people by the barrel load and you need to get thousands of users to sign up to your new group right?

This is where your thinking ” I dont have any facebook friends” so how can I do that?

Well this ebook that is floating around simply explains on how to get emails and thousands of them, you simply use a decent email harvester and crawl the internet but targeting emails using the keyword of your choice. There is no point  getting as many emails as you can as you will be wasting your time, if you are selling a “Teach a old Dog new Tricks” ebook then is there any point using emails harvested from the keyword “Body Builders”? You need to target your audience the same as you would promote a website or business! (dont email me asking about harvesting tools but look here).

Once you have got all the emails you like you need to start using them for inviting people to your group and this is where Facebook gets interesting, You would think that being the largest social website in the world and on the internet you would think they would have good privacy and spam protection right?

This is where you can abuse a major flaw in the mighty Facebook, Go to your new group and select the “invite more people” and you see a section where you can just cut and paste emails into Facebook and it will then email those emails a invite to your new group. The good thing about using this method is that once your group gets a couple of thousand of people then it will pretty much grow very fast indeed as your new members will keep inviting new members for you. Now just think to yourself how much traffic you can get to your website by just using this method?

I did try doing this myself and I didn’t really have much success to be honest, I found Facebook quite buggy and slow so I did give up quite easy, but I did get the group to about 300members in a few days and then gave up but you may be able to get a very big group!

Anyone else tried this method or going to try it?

Please do let me know how you get on.

How to gain followers on Twitter while loosing the wastefull nonfollowers

January 7th, 2010 dansomers

I have given in and decide that I would give in and give  Twitter a chance and see what all the fuss is about. The truth is I did try it a long time ago but didn’t really understand it at all, I still don’t but I do know that it can drive alot of traffic your way indeed.

When I joined to Twitter I got bored with it shortly after joining up, So I started some research………….

I found out the best way and defiantly the fastest way is to use a mass follower tool or script that you simply put in your user name and password and a keyword for your targeted niche. This will then scan Twitter for people to follow and the idea behind this is that you follow as many people as you can and they will then follow you in return, this means every time you “tweet” you have posted to a large audience in one go. (That’s the theory but read on)

I have only found one Twitter tool that I like and I have uploaded here for you. Its a very basic tool but its small and does the job perfect and its not full of crappy spyware. You simply load it up and put your username, password and keyword and leave it to do its stuff and once its done you will see a list of the people you are now following.

So imagine, you have used the tool and following 5k people but you notice after a while out of those your following you only have 1k people following you. ( In my eyes they are a waste and disposable).

Nothing worse than seeing a Twitter account who follows but doesn’t really get followed as it is quite blatant its a spam account so people wont want to follow you!

I have the solution but you will need to use firefox for this to work and you will need to install a plugin called greasemonkey and once you have installed GreaseMonkey you will a script that you will load into greasemonkey and you can get that HERE once you have installed jump to your Twitter account. Once on your twitter account you need to click your following lists(top right) and then look for the little monkey logo in your firefox browser which should be on the bottom left and then right click and choose “Twitter Remove Non-Followers!. This wont show up if you are not on your following list!

Now your ready to get rid of the non return followers and punish them for not sharing the tweeting love.

Now you should be on your following list you should see that some of the twitter accounts are greyed out and these are the ones that are not following back and you simply scroll down and hit the “remove marked”  and then just work your way though them. I have found the best way of doing this it to use the following tool and add say a 1000 accounts and then wait for a few days, then use the grease monkey script to delete non followers. I wouldn’t just add thousands at a time as it will take you ages to delete the non followers.

I hope this helps you out with getting traffic to your website in a couple of days I got a twitter account with over 600 followers so it does work, Ill keep doing it till I hit a few thousand!

So you want backlinks and to be indexed in less than 24 hours

January 4th, 2010 dansomers

Some of you may remember my article regarding getting indexed within 24hours using a hand full of websites while getting a few back links at the same time. I still find what I wrote quite usefull but I have found something that completely blows my previous article out of the water.

I was checking out digitalpoint freebies section and came across a post boasting about a new SEO script that will get you indexed within 24hours while getting your new domain backlinks from websites with pagerank 6 and upwards. The post also claimed that it can get back links in the thousands all with good pagerank. I read the post a couple of times thinking it was a load of crap like most of the rubbish that gets placed on the freebie section of digital point, after all it was claiming something it could give you something for nothing…………. Indexed, backlinks that are from high pageranked websites which of course can improve your own page-rank when Google decides to update itself… Sounds to good to be true does it not?

I thought ill give this magic script ago by using a domin that I wasnt to bothered if it got dropped or not so why not?

I checked out the website and gave it a go, you simply type in your domain and make sure you have “new browser” selected and set how many pop up(new windows) you want to open at the same time. I had opted for 50 windows to open to see what it does, this gets annoying as you really do get 50 windows open up with all these websites that you have just pinged but never mind that was my choice and wont do that again. You can select less windows to open or do it manually by just clicking the links but that will take hours to do as you can get 100s of websites queing to ping your website and some of them leave a record on their website so you can get a backlink also while using the tool…………….. quite handy hey?

I must admit it took me a while to work out how the tool would force a website to make a backlink on the “pinged” website but it works the same as princiable of my last article so overall it gets a 8/10 from me. The main downside to this tool is that the websites it pings are mainly Chinese but they do have alot of websites with good pagerank and they are not adult websites or warez websites so you are pretty much safe from having bad links to your new website. The developer of the website has stated he wanted to clean up alot of the websites that the scripts uses for pinging and getting backlinks so hopefully there will be more English websites.

Anyway, I tested the script on the domain that wasnt indexed and hasn’t been in use for at least 3 months. The domain was indexed pretty much in the 24th hour which i was quite suprised about but I have yet to check out the backlinks but I will edit this post once I have done a proper check as half the decent backlink counters on the Internet have stopped working.

I would be careful using this tool if you are planning to use a domain as a new business or website as it is quite new and I myself haven’t checked out the side affects of using this script, I will be checking the back-links very closely over the next couple of weeks while also giving the domain a few more blasts.

If you looking for a quick fix to getting your website indexed and have a few backlinks then this tool is most definatly the way to go!

Why have one website then you can have hundreds

December 21st, 2009 dansomers

I get asked quite often how I started in marketing and promoting websites and how many sites do I own to make a income. The truth is  I own far to many websites and most of them I didn’t build myself as I invested in some software that built me a website in about 4minutes. The software isn’t cheap if I am honest but it’s an investment that pays for itself over and over within quite a small period of time.

Sitebuilder Elite is the name of this software and I still use it to this day, I have built well over 200 sites with this product and its made me a pretty good amount of money from Ad sense and Amazon adverts on the websites. The theory behind SBE is that you can have one website earning about £1 a day just from adsense, but if you have 20websites earning a £1 a day then you start to £20 daily very fast, lets not forget I’m just using Adsense for example but you can use Clickbank, Amazon and eBay affiliate as well as some others that I didn’t use. If you add them all up then you are onto a right winner….Trust me it works!

SBE is so simple to use, you download it from the main website and install to a folder on your pc or mac then upload about 4 folders to your server via ftp and then point to yourdomain.com/files/install.php and follow the instructions to setting up the website using keywords of your choice. Once you have built the website you simply grab some articles on your niche or write your own and simply market it as much as you can to get the traffic flowing and in turn your traffic turns into money.

If you are like me and pretty busy then really do get this software, you can easily make 10 high quality websites a day of you really wanted to. This day and age you don’t need to pay for a domain or hosting so after your investment of SBE you simply keep the profits. Gary Nugent is the brains behind the software and he often sends out updates for the software i.e. you can post to twitter, have youtube videos, grab content from the Internet like articles, you can have privacy pages and terms and conditions which as we all know Google loves. It also gives each website a footprint so the search engines don’t know it’s a generated website.

Have a look at a sample website here.

Take my word, if you want to knock out websites with having the knowledge then this software is the best on the Internet to this date and has been for over a year since I have been using it. The good thing is Gary made a update so you can even sell the website without having to risk your investment. I would suggest buy it and use it to get your new sites listed and earning then jump to a few website master forums and sell the site, you would get at least £20 minimum with a indexed website so you can really make some good money on SBE

I think you can understand what a exciting investment this software is

Forum about SEO and Marketing

December 20th, 2009 dansomers

After looking around the internet I have noticed you get blackhat forums, which to be honest just seem to turn into filesharing forums and people boasting/claiming they have just brought a new house with the money they have earnt from a single blast of xrumer when promoting some crappy product. On the other hand you get webmaster forums which only promote using whitehat methods of search engine optimization or marketing. I myself find this boring very boring!

A friend asked me to help him out with a SEO forum, The forum is pretty simple and just using simplemachineforum software(smf) but might upgrade to vbulletin in the near future when the member and post counts get alot higher. We do aim for the forum to be slightly different where SEO and marketers new and old can learn from each other, without having that crappy “IM A EXPERT” response.

Using forums to promote a website or blog can do magic for your traffic, as long as you dont it to death and get yourself banned.

We have decided not to really have any rules, except the normal stuff….No porn, drugs blah blah or blatent spamming. I find getting post counts up and good karma/respect gets people to want to vist your website and maybe link to it, its better to have ten people looking at your site for a few minutes rather than 100 just clicking off after a second.

The forum also has a market place so you can trade and also be able to leave feedback, we dont have a post count or citeria that you need to hit before posting in the market place but this may change once the forum gets bigger.

Anyway have a look and join up and join the SEO community and either learn or teach others, doesnt matter what “hat” you decide to wear your always welcome.

Using emails to make money without spam-blackhat

December 15th, 2009 dansomers

This is a rather crafty method that could be used for making money. What it’s based on is that you make a webpage saying that you’re giving away, for example, a 42 inch television because you’ve “just bought a new 50 inch television”. You say that you want to give it away to a good cause so you ask people to fill in their Name, Reason why they deserve to win, E-Mail Address and then a submit button. However, the E-Mail Address and the submit button will be simply an iframe from a CPA Offer – An E-Mail Submit offer. This means that they’ll fill in the details thinking they’re entering a competition when they’re filling in their E-Mail Address and submitting it. The minute they submit, you’ve got your £1 – £2 commission and you no longer care about them. To do this though, you’ve got to blend in the submit form with your webpage. You will learn how to do that.

Step 1 – Signup to a good affiliate program. The best one to use for this method is Affiliateer. Once you’ve signed up, you’ll need to find a good affiliate which pays just based on the E-Mail Address submit and not after extra information submits afterwards. These normally pay around £1 to £2.

Step 2 – You have a decision to make now. The first thing you could do is to make your competition a “personal” competition. You could setup a free hosting with a free domain (Deliberately, don’t use a paid domain) and you could say that you’re one person just running a competition and you’ve “setup this webpage just to store the entries easier”. The second thing you could do is to make your competition a “business” competition. If you’re running an online business, you could run a professional competition that you’re giving away great prizes for visiting your website. This will increase traffic, also!

Step 3 – If you’ve decided on the personal competition, you need to make a small webpage with form fields Name and Reason why you want to win.  Youo can get free domains and hosting very quickly indeed the building and playing with iframes I will leave for you to work out.

Step 4 – The only problem left is the fact that you’ve got to get the CPA offer to fit perfectly with the design, and to only show the E-Mail Address and submit button and not the rest of the page. This is why you’ll need to mess around with the values of the iframe to get it working. An easier solution can be found in the tips for this method.

Step 5 – Once your submit page has done and seems to be all working, you can start to promote it. If you’re using the business competition, this should be really easy because you can make Press Releases and blog posts and forum posts all about the competition. If you’re using the personal competition, this may be slightly trickier. You could do newspaper advertisements, Craigslist submissions, forum posts etc… The list is endless, just try it out and see what works.

Tips!!! ·

Use a software called GodCPA. This makes the whole process of making it a LOT quicker, because it creates it all for you. You could purchase the software, or you could find a warez version of it. *cough* A simple search on Google will help you find one. *cough* · If you use GodCPA, you can make the submit button take the visitor to another page. On this page, you could put something like “Sorry, but the details weren’t submitted correctly. Please submit again.” And on that page, you could put a DIFFERENT CPA E-Mail Submit offer on there. That way, you get paid for two offers by one person. Now, it’s time to work on another method.

Having trouble finding your niche?

December 8th, 2009 dansomers

This is a short post and rather rushed but I thought Ill post anyway as I have been rather slack for the last couple of weeks with moving hosts,  designing a new website for a client and  saving this blog from hackers……………… Apologies once again!

I found a fantastic tool that I think can and will help you improve your “niche” or help you decide on your first money earning website!

Firstly I have found this great download, it basically is a excel report with about 700k keywords that you can use to start a “niche website ” that should start to earn you money. I must admit I have only promoted and designed websites that are around the “webmaster” niche, but after finding this list I might start a few websites on some rare keywords and see how it goes!

The guy who did this report is Dan Abbamont! Check his own blog, it seems pretty new the same as his “gimme a nice” website, The website is pretty simple, all you do is enter how much you would like a keyword to be worth, the website simply scraps Google and then gives you a quick idea of a keyword and how much it could be worth and how many searches a month the keyword gets!

Have a look and let me know what you think of it, I just hope its not one of those one hit wonder websites than come and go!

Building targeted backlinks with Squidoo

December 2nd, 2009 dansomers

Well if you own a website, you know that you need to rank well on Google to get traffic. Traffic = Revenue.
That means we need good SEO. Therefore, we need some targeted backlinks that have PageRank and are obviously DoFollow. This will help to increase the SERPs of a website as well as the PageRank. Two in one.
Now let’s get started.

This little technique is building links from the very popular site, Squidoo. People build lenses about their chosen subject and write about them. Because of the great amount of information on them (As well as some good SEO maybe), they often have some PageRank. These are great places to put your link.

There is one good plugin that Squidoo users can install which gives us this ability. We need to use a simple Google query to find the lens’ that have this plugin installed.
Search Google for this:
site:www.squidoo.com “0 points” “Add to this list”
I get this result:
Results 1 – 10 of about 23,600 from www.squidoo.com for “0 points” “Add to this list”. (0.23 seconds)
That gives us 23,600 webpages for us to put our links on. We may need to narrow this down a little though, towards our keywords.

Let’s use another example:
site:www.squidoo.com “0 points” “Add to this list” Health
That query gives us this:
Results 1 – 10 of about 5,530 from www.squidoo.com for “0 points” “Add to this list” Health. (0.25 seconds)

Now you should be able to see the great amount of links you can build,Of course this is only the first step!

Now it’s time to filter your results based on PageRank. You can use whatever Bulk PageRank Checker you want to find the ones with PageRank.
Most lenses that I’ve found seem to have around PR1 – PR2 as an average. I’ve seen a LOT of PR3 ones though, and several PR4 pages. This is not bad at all.
Now that you have your lists, it’s time to show you how you can build your links on these pages.

Go to one of the pages.

For this example, I’m going to use this: http://www.squidoo.com/free-old-movies-and-tv-shows

This page is a PR3 page.
Scroll down until you see “Free Movie Sites” This is where you will add your link. Of course it isn’t going to say Free Movie Sites on each one, it will be different. You can see the general layout of what it looks like though.

Next, you click the button that says “Add to this list”.
You will see:
Type or paste links below (one per line):
(Ex: http://www.mysiteranked.com)
This is where you just put the URL of your site for now. Enter the URL, click Done Adding. You will then be taken to another form where you can alter your Website Title (Anchor text) and your Website Description. Submit this, and that’s it, done.
There are some different varieties. Some of the lenses you find might only be for Amazon products – You should notice it if all the other links are from Amazon.
Some of the lenses are moderated too. You should only add your links to lenses that are relevant to yours. If you follow this, I’m sure your links will get approved.
Enjoy
