But the most important bit is if you haven’t already added the RealTrafficeXchange Widget from Jon Leger to your blog, then go get it done now: -

RealTrafficX.com

it’s been 7 months since my last post about blog traffic widgets and RealTrafficX is still getting me around 1% ctr across a range of blogs.

Now that may not sound like a lot, but as you can write the “ad” shown across the network for your blog, you can make sure that the people who do click through are going to be pretty well targeted, and therefore far more likely to convert.

You can also decide where (i.e. which page) to send those fresh new visitors to for the maximum effect, for instance a “squeeze” page to get the straight on your list…

Yesterday I spent a hour or so setting up a couple of sites and it was so easy I’ve got another half dozen planned over the next couple of days…

This script is from a well known long standing (he started making money online back in 1998) internet marketer who knows his stuff and is totally “White Hat”, so these sites will not get your adsense account banned (imho, and his).

The script uses private label articles to build real article directories automatically. Once the site is set up, which take less than 30 mins, you just up load a bunch of articles once a month (or whenever you want) and it automatically posts and categorizes the articles for you on a pre-defined schedule that you decide.

The two sites I set up yesterday now have 35 and 41 articles posted to them, I’ve not checked the adsense stats yet, but I will do in a few days and post some results.

I admit that I’ve used domains that previously had joomla article sites on them, so they have PR and are indexed, which should speed up them getting indexed, having traffic and making money, but I figured that’s the quickest way of finding out if this really works well, as the only back links these sites have are from a directory submission tool that I’ve used.

the tool in question is one of James Brausch’s tools, he’s got some kick arse stuff, you can check it out here: directory submission tool

it’s cool because you only pay once and you can use it for as many sites as you want, and it will usually (depending on the subject of your site) get 200-300 backlinks for your site with just five minutes work, although obviously the links will take a few weeks to all show up.

I’ll post an update with some results as soon as I have them, as well as a link to the product when it’s released.

I am considering doing some SEO links work for it soon, but for this month I have simply added an upsell for a related info product that I have Private Label Rights for, which has added 27% to the profits for the month and only took about an hour to set up.

I’m still leaving money on the table at the moment though as I haven’t set up an autoresponder list for either the prospects or the buyers, which would help to increase profits.

My Parenting PLR ebook has yet to make any sales, which is a little dissapointing, as it is getting traffic from the articles I’ve submitted for it.

I need to go back and look at it to see what changes I need to make to get this in to profit, but for the moment I’m a little short on time as I’m now working on a new product of my own.

I will post an update here when I’ve had chance to look in to this products lack lustre results.

I’ve also been away for a week skiing in the Austrian Alps with my kids, although I did take my laptop with me and I even managed to get some work done, admitedly it was mostly sat at the bar with a beer, but I guess that’s why this “job” is cool.

I will be posting some updates to the current tests shortly, as well as some new ones, but for the moment I though I’d just mention an AdWords PPC ebook that I picked up to read while I was away.

It’s called Adwords180 and it’s got some fairly interesting stuff in it, it was worth the purcahse price, unlike the other ebook i read while on holiday, Duvet Dollars, which didn’t give me anything new at all..

There’s two reasons for this, first of all in my mind it seems wrong to post an affiliate link to a product that I’m testing, at least until there are some fairly substantial test results, as the product may turn out to be crap..

and second it’s not really what this blog’s for.

I’m not promoting this blog anywhere, in fact I’ve not even gone through my normal link building process for a new site, so if you’ve found this blog at the moment I’m not even sure how you’ve done so..

I am using the built in Ping feature, but only to Pingomtaic, not a long list.

Admitedly there are a couple of links in the blogroll to “money making” sites, but it’s not exactly hard hitting “in your face” affiliate marketing, and that’s my intent with this blog. I will post links to products, but only once the test results have proven that they are worth linking to, otherwise what’s the point..

It’s purpose is simply as a place to post my test results, as I said in the original intro, it’s a way of making sure I keep doing my testing and don’t get lazy, I am after all known to be a bit of a “Lazy Git”..

If you want to find out just how lazy check out the link to Lazy Git Marketing in the blogroll on the right, it’s not an affiliate link as this is my own product, the first Internet marketing ptoduct I’ve released. It’s a report on how to make money from sites with no traffic and no visitors..

Don’t expect vast volumes of in depth instructions or test data and results, that’s not the purpose of this blog.

The main purpose is simply to remind me to keep a track/record of what I’m testing and how it goes, to help me concentrate my buisness on the most profitable techniques.

Who am I?

Well, that shouldn’t really matter should it, so I’ll just say I earn a living from “internet marketing” and have done for a little while now.
