Happy day  - Let me save you $50

I just secured a special deal with the owner of my most favorite tool, Unique Article Wizard.

UPDATE 08.01.2010 – The Special offer has ended for now. It seems that someone has been trying really hard to steal my special offer link and trying to force his own affiliate code on it. Due to this the guys at UAW had to disable the special offer link for now while we try to figure out a new way to give out this offer. That might take a couple of months.

In the meantime I will do a different kind of special offer that you will find here below…

If you have no clue how the UAW can help you then read my Unique Article Wizard Review

NEW Special Offer

Since the $50 discount is no longer running I had to put in a regular affiliate link. That of course means that I just started to get some beer money when you sign up for UAW.. so I want to do something special for you in return. So here is what I am willing to do for you…  (ps… if you find a better deal somewhere else, take it!)

1. UAW Tips
I will send you my UAW Tips Report that will help you get more out of UAW and help you avoid getting punished by Google. This means more money in your pockets.

2. Fresh Articles
I will give you 2 fresh articles on any topic you like. 1 of those will be a regular 300+ word article that you can perhaps post on EzineArticles.com. The other article will be an UAW article (article + 2 rewrites) to help you get started right away.. but that’s not all… I will also give you at least 20+ titles to use with the UAW article.

3. UAW power
If you happen to fall in love with UAW (which I’m sure you will) and you go for another month of subscription.. I will send you 2x UAW article on any topic you like, including 20+ titles and a bunch of resource boxes.

I’m thinking… It seems that a lot of you really need an easy, step-by-step guide that will teach you the basics… Knowing the raw basics before choosing which product to buy makes everything so much easier.

Should I devote a night or two in creating such a guide for all of you newbies out there?
I would of course share it with you for FREE!

The topics that come to mind are:
- Finding profitable niches/products
- Keyword research
- I have a product.. now what?
- Creating a niche site
- Generating Free Traffic Basics
- What else can you think of?

What do you guys think that you need the most…what should be the first FREE guide I should create?

Please comment on what your needs are and I will get to it!

I get a lot of questions regarding domain forwarding. The thing is.. article directories like Ezine Articles don’t allow you to use your hoplink (affiliate link) and they also only allow the so called root forwarding. This means that you have to buy a domain name and have it forward to the product page if you want to be able to send potential customers directly to a sales page.

So here is my Domain Forwarding For Newbies Guide
#1 Root Forwarding
#2 Create A Forwarding Folder

Since most I know are using GoDaddy.com to buy domain names (.info domains for only $1) this guides uses screenshots from them.

#1 Root Forwarding | Root URL Redirection

Once you have bought your domain (at GoDaddy.com), login and go to the “My Domains” page and click on the name of the domain you wish to forward (to a sales page using your affiliate link/hoplink).

On the next screen, click the “Forward” button (see image below)

Now you should be seeing the “Forward and Mask Domains” screen (see img below)
You need to do the following:
1) make sure you are on the “Forwarding page”
2) Click the “Enable Forwarding”
3) Paste your hoplink/affiliate link into the “Forward to:” box
4) Click the “301 Move…” selection
5) Move over to the Masking page (instructions below)

Now you should be seeing the “Forward and Mask Domains” page, Masking Page (see img below)

You need to do the following:
1) Click the “Enable Masking”
2) Put description in the “Masked description Meta tag” (using not more than 160 chars)
3) Put you domain name in the “Masked title” – Make sure you use “http:YourDomainNam…” (I forgot the “http://” part in the screensot)
4) Put your best keywords in the “Masked keyword Meta tag”
5) Press the “OK” button

This is all there is to it.. It takes a few minutes for the forwarding to “go online” – just check regularly. If it is not working withing 30 minutes than go through all the steps again to make sure you did everything correctly.

If you have any questions.. just place a comment and I’ll answer as quickly as possible.

#2 Create A Forwarding Folder | Folder URL Redirection

Here I explain the other kind of forwarding/redirections. In the guide above we were redirection any traffic coming to YourDomainName.info

But there is another way to do things. Let’s say you don’t really want to buy a domain for every product then you can simply get one domain, host it and then create a forwarding folder for each product you need forwarding. I would not recommend this since some of the best article directories (like Ezine Articles will not allow it). I will however show how this is done since it is a very useful method for those creating niche sites.

Lets say you just signed up as an affiliate to a dog training program and you just bought MyDogTrainingProgram.com at GoDaddy.com (yes.. that domain name is available as this is written). You are going to build a niche dog training site there with training tips and tricks for dog owners and then promote the training program you just signed up as affiliate to.

The best way to forward to the training program from your site is to use a forwarding folder, for example: http://MyDogTrainingProgram.com/go/nameofprogram
In the code this would look like this:
<a href=”http://MyDogTrainingProgram.com/go/nameofprogram” >TextLinkHere</a>

For this to work you need to do two things:
1) You need to access your website using an ftp program and create the folder
2) You need to tell your host provider how to  forward all visist to this folder

and here is how you do those two things..

First of all, hopefully you are using HostGator or Bluehost. These are the two best hosting providers you can get for niche sites, it’s a simple as that. The screenshots below are taken from one of my HostGator accounts and it looks almost identical to Bluehost.

1) Let’s start by creating the folder we need (http://MyDogTrainingProgram.com/go/nameofprogram)
If you know how to use an FTP program that is great and I really don’t need to explain this to you. For those of you not familiar with FTP I’m going to simply use the FTP  filemanager that is readily available on your so called cPanel (control panel) at HostGator or Bluehost.

Start by logging into the control panel (cPanel) of your hosting account (you should have received login information in an e-mail when you signed up)

On the cPanel main menu find the “FileManager” (see image below)

Once you click it it might ask you to select which directory to open, just select the web root (see image below) and click OK

After selecting the Web Root directory you should be taken to a screen looking similar to the one in the image below…
Make sure that you are in the WWW or public_html directory and then click the “New Folder” button.

In this example I decided to name my folder “go” (see image below)

You should be able to see it in the File Manager now (see image below)

Now that you have created the “go” folder select it in the webtree (see image below) and then click the “create folder” button again.

You should give this folder the same name as the product. Example: if the product name is Dog Training Guide then name the folder “dogtrainingguide”… to keep things simple I just named my folder “ProductName” (see image below)

You are now done with the first part as we have created this directory http://www.DogTrainingProgram.com/go/ProductName

2) Now lets create the redirect.
Since you have created a folder, all you need is to tell the Host that youwant to redirect all traffic that comes to this folder.

Log into your hosting account. At your cPanel find a box called “Domains” in it should be a button called “Redirects” – Click it.. (see image below)

On your screen you should see something very similar to the image below…

a) Select the “TYPE Permanent 301″
b) You put in your domain name  as shown in the picture.
c) Behind the domain name you put the name of the two folders you just created earlier. In my case I created a “go” folder and the “ProductName” and you can see that in the picture (don’t forget the forward slash between them.
d) Paste your hoplink/affiliate link into the “redirects to” box
e) I always select “Redirect with or without the www.” – It ensures that it will forward all traffic even if I forget to put the www in my link
f) You don’t really need the Wild Card Redirect. It’s just a habit of mine to have it set like this
g) now just press ADD

If you have done everything correctly you should now test it. Open a new browser window and type in it: http://www.YourDomainName.com/go/ProductName
It should redirect you through the hoplink you used.

If it’s not working make sure you have everything spelled correctly and that the folders are where they should be.
If you can’t figure it out just use the comments below and I’ll help you throught the steps

Now you can add folders and products to promote
Now that you have learned to use folder redirects you can add more folders to this site if you want to promote more than just the one product. This gives you the power of promoting just as many products as you want using this one domain.. it also makes it very easy to stop promoting one product and start promoting something else.

Good luck

We all know that finding a profitable niche to sell can be hard. Well I found a 30 minute video you can watch for FREE.

It is on a product page but you don’t need to buy anything or opt-in to watch it.. it’s totally FREE!

It’s the 4th video from the top, under the headline: “How To Find A Profitable Niche To Sell…The Movie!”

ps. this video (and the program)  is created by David, a good friend of Travis Sago, the father of ‘bum marketing’. Travis told my about it and now I’m passing this on to you. (Travis and I both agree that it’s an excellent video!)

I am honestly trying to finish my Commission Ritual review, but this program is just so exciting I can’t find myself spending time writing.

There are just so many videos I want to watch. Brian, the author, has a genuine touch for sales and he really does a good job explaining that online success is more about selling than about getting the traffic. Like I have always said.. Bunch of free traffic has no value if you can’t sell them anything!

well.. back to wathcing some exciting Commission Ritual videos

Guess what.. yesterday I got a phonecall from someone at Profit Miracle. I thought perhaps they had read my Profit Miracle Review and were not that pleased with it but that did not turn out to be the case!

They called because they wanted me to become rich (their words).

I will be writing about this in detail later tonight… preparing dinner at the moment. I’ts 19:00 here in Iceland.
UPDATE: the full story can now be found at the bottom of my full review

Darren Salkeld launched his MaxPro system earlier this month. I had noticed that is Infinite Income Plan had been constantly dropping in sales over the past few months but data shows that since the launch of his new product the sales are picking up again. I have searched for a MaxPro System review but all the reviews I find are the “sales” type of reviews, not a single, ‘honest opinin’ review. If you find a real MaxPro system review that explains in detail what is in the system and how it works, please post a note in the comments.

I am also wondering if it’s a totally new system or if its just a makover of the Infinite Income Plan? What do you guys think?

At least the MaxPro System website looks very nice and all the sales text is well written. I still have to wonder, since Darren had good success selling his Infinite Income Plan why is it not mentioned anywhere on the MaxPro System website? Doesn’t he want people to know about his earlier “how to make money online” product?
I am looking into this and will definately post my findings!

Check out the MaxPro System website

I wanted to share with you some results of using a fantastic tool called Unique Article Wizard.

Last Thuesday, the 14th I wrote a review on Mass Marticle Control and posted here on this site. Later that day, using the Unique Article Wizard I created a few hundred unique copies of that review and scheduled them for submission.

I scheduled them to go out on the 15th but I had made an error (forgot to put in the title) and did not notice it until late on 15th so the articles were actually not sent out until yesterday, the 16th. (see picture from the Unique Article Wizard Control Panel)

Now it’s been about 20 hours from those articles submissions and I decided to google the review and guess what! If I google “Mass Article Control Review” (without the quotation marks) I am already in 6th place on googles first page! And if I google just the product name I still come on first page but in 9th place. Now those results are simply stunning – this happened just overnight!!! Make note that all the articles submitted had a link to my site. Now you have really seen the power of the Unique Article Wizard.

Here is a screenshot I took today (17th of July) – click it to see larger pic!

I’m currently reviewing the Profit Miracle that came out not long ago. It’s from the same guy that created Copy N Profit. I really had my hopes up high, not that CopyNProfit was really good but I thought they had probably learned a lot from it. Unfortunately that does not seem to be the case. I will probably publish my review late tomorrow or on the weekend so you can read the full story then… Guess the question is if I will be asking for my money back or not!

I´m actually taking a break now from it cause I’m to annoyed to write about it any more. I think I´ll finish my Article Marketing Help page to cool off

UPDATE: I just posted my full Profit Miracle review

I’m Tryggvi, a marketer and sales guru for many years and recently an affiliate marketer making my money online!

I have a few friends that have been doing really well using affiliate sales as their main income stream and I guess it was only a matter of time when I would dive into the pool with them. Business got a bit slow after the economic crisis last fall so I decided then to see if I could do some clickbank magic like my friends.

Long story short, I have been testing out blog marketing, bum marketing, article marketing, ppc and just about everything I can think of. I am actually quite amazed at how easy this is (easy, but sometimes a lot of work). Already it looks like my wife will not have to go back to work next february (2010) when her pregnancy leave ends  :) and if all goes according to plan I will quit my regular job sometime next summer or fall (2010).

Not bad being able to work from home and only few hours a day!
