Keyword Bible Adds Harvester Bonus

If you own or buy the Keyword Bible, the deal just got a whole lot sweeter with the addition of the Ultimate Keyword Harvester (UKH). It's a scraping tool that gathers keywords from Overture's Keyword Selector Tool and Google's Sandbox.

Installing it on your server is easy. Then a few seconds later, you can be recursively digging and collecting all the keywords you want. And you can easily add them to the 23,000 existing lists that come with the Keyword Bible.

The added ability to export the harvested keywords in quotes and brackets, makes it super easy to jump-start a Google AdWords campaign. Plus the sorting feature, allowing random or alphabetical sorting, is great for both portal builders or those trying to keep their advertising campaigns organized.

Keyword Bible & Harvester ==> http://www.cdzn.com/kb

But unfortunately, you can't buy it as a stand-alone product. The only way to get the Keyword Harvester is as a bonus with the purchase of Keyword Bible.


Over 700,000 AdWords Keywords Sorted by Bid Price

Rick Butts asked me to take a look at his new tool called the Keyword Burner. He also asked me why I think it's not selling very well.

I gave him my usual yadda about several keyword tools being released on the market at the same time. Also the time of year, with summer winding down, vacations coming to an end, and the school year beginning... boy was I wrong. Keyword Burner is a Secret Weapon.

After using the tool for 10 minutes I emailed Rick back and told him the real reason his tool wasn't selling. Everyone who tries it, just wants to keep it for themselves. It's that good. But I'd also be doing a disservice to you, if I didn't tell you about it.

Believe me... I was really tempted to keep it to myself and enjoy the advantage it gives... which is simple. With the Keyword Burner, you don't need to DO any market research. It IS your market research.

If you can click a button, you can find markets of one, two or three keyword phrases. For example, clicking on two word markets provides a list of 500 choices. The first item on the list paying an average of 30 dollars a click is "conference calls" but there's only 2,300 searches per month.

To avoid the "pack" of people in that market, I scroll down the list to find high paying spots but with lots of traffic, such as "hair removal" paying out over $16 per click but a very healthy 60,000 searches per month.

So now I have an "official" new step in my portal building checklist. It lets me be even lazier, because I don't have to think about where the markets are, I can just pick them off a list.

Keyword Burner ==> http://www.cdzn.com/rbk

I'm also happy to report that I have five portals up and running... and my "hair removal" portal had its first ever $100 week. My plan is to put up one portal per week for the next 12 months and have them bring in an extra 80-100K per year.

Having tools like the Keyword Burner makes that goal a lot easier to attain than ever before. Now repeat after me... go where the markets are... go where the money is. Then set up your portal.

The Positive Mind for Would-Be Entrepreneurs...

Here's a refreshing ebook unlike most of the usual stuff you'll read. It's an entirely inspirational text by Colin McDougal on what it takes to run a successful home business.

Colin got his start in computer programming, spent time apprenticing under James Martell, then became a success in his own right and was featured in the Success Alert ebook in 2004.

Now Colin is the leading affiliate for many companies. Companies that literally worship the ground he walks on, because their success is entirely dependant on his.

Colin really wants you to wake up and reverse the years of programming and conditioning you've been fed. He wants you to forget about the safe paying job and modest retirement pension. He wants to drop all that and start a successful business and become a financially independent entrepreneur.

So if you're having trouble managing your time. If you're having trouble thinking like a winner. If you've tried and failed to set up a home business. Then don't despair, here's hope... and a lot of it. Colin will help you believe in yourself and help get you back on track, all with the power of The Positive Mind.

Internet Marketing FAQs, Secrets and Strategies

Is the portal strategy a worthwhile investment?

Q - Buying Niche Portal Builder and the Keyword Bible is an investment, I understand that, and all businesses require that. However, are we going to be buying products that will be worthless in 2 to 6 months?

Also, are we moving away from good solid strategies to quick fixes that spam the search engines? I'm not a disciple on anything in these regards, it just seems like a rather awakening jolt seeing these thoughts coming from you.

A - I'm not too worried about it. Portals are just another thing to add into the marketing mix. As for "solid" SEO strategies... the market is pretty much saturated with those, with everyone claiming to be an expert, even if they've never built a site.

As you know, I've always been on the leading edge of tactics, with Nothing but 'Net in '99. Search Engine Commando in 2000. Three SEO white papers back in 2001. My Revenge of the Mininet linking strategy. Then Blog and Ping, RSS to Blog, RSS to HTML... and now portals. It's just an evolution.

If you think portals are search engine spam, I disagree. It's just a tool and it depends on how it is used.

The portal building software makes it easy to automatically generate a big site and there's nothing wrong with that. If the content is relevant to the search query and the user found a solution to what they were looking for, then again, there's nothing wrong with that.

So if you think in terms of helping the end user, it doesn't really matter to them that your site was auto generated, and they ended up clicking on an ad. To them, if they have acne, I have 500 pages related to acne, they saw a targeted ad for acne medicine and clicked on it, then I've done my job.

So far, none of my portals have been culled, because I took the time to modify the template. People who build sites with little or no value will get them culled... and quickly.

I spend about 30 minutes researching my topic. Usually I think about problems and solutions, something along the lines of, "stop acne." I then write three paragraphs of original text on the home page, about what causes acne and how to stop it.

The portal is very targeted to the search phrase, and the Google ads are positioned as the solution to the problem... which they indeed are. I brought the buyer and seller together and both are happy. Google and I are happy, because we both made money with the click on the ad.

So it all depends on the way you look at it. Are portals my only source of income... no. I have baskets and eggs a plenty. But portals in one form or another are here to stay, and they certainly add another interesting tactic and revenue stream, to the online marketers portfolio.

(For complete details about the portal strategy, be sure to read the issue dedicated to portal building IMS #78.)


How do you get traffic to a portal?

Q - How does your new portal get traffic... PPC, links? I heard that is takes at least three months to get indexed. How are you managing to get paid clicks in your first week?

A - First off I automate a Blog and Ping to get Yahoo coming. (They talk about how to do that in the Keyword Avalanche site, including the different software and methods that are available.) My trick is to do it very slowly, like two to four posts per day.

Keyword Avalanche ==> http://www.cdzn.com/kar

Some people use Rick Butts' Blog Burner to automate the blogging of an entire portal. The exact way the new version of Blog Burner works is a secret. (I have a hunch their doing something with Google Sitemaps... but Rick's not telling, or even giving any hints.)

Blog Burner ==> http://www.cdzn.com/rbb

I'm also using mature domain names from Terrific Names, and then link into the new portal, with two of my PR4 sites, a link from my main blog, and one link from my RSS to HTML (constantly fresh and crawled) newsfeed page. Those four links are enough to make Google happy and get it spidering within a few days.

Terrific Names ==> http://www.cdzn.com/tn

In my first week, I managed to get over 300 pages indexed in Yahoo from my first portal. Now there's over 1,500 pages indexed. In fact, my blog is #1 in Yahoo for my exact keyword phrase.

I haven't tried any PPC to get traffic to the portal. But I'm sure it's something that could be added to the mix... at least from sources other than Google.

Take the Guess Work Out of Keyword Research
(So You can Concentrate on Your Profits)

If you're already good at making webpages and playing the affiliate game, seriously consider the Keyword Avalanche Research (KAR) Service. Simply join up and start using their keyword research to tap into hot markets with PPC landing pages, Portals or Mininets.

Yes, these guys really do make over $20,000 U.S. per month. But the real value - in my opinion - is the private forum showing exactly how they do it. You don't have to guess or face a learning curve. Just follow their simple step-by-step guide to setting up portals.

What happens when a 200 page site suddenly appears?

Q - When you build a portal, do you upload the pages all at once, or incrementally, thereby not being seen as spam by the search engines? Also, are the pages dynamic or static?

A - My portals have normal static web pages. I don't want the search engine spiders to encounter any difficulty whatsoever in indexing the pages. And yes, in spite of what you've read, the engines do not like to index dynamic pages. They usually give up and move on to easier sites.

As for the upload, it's all at once. It's pretty normal for a regular size company to create their entire site - all 200 pages - before launch. They proof it locally, get everything approved and then load the whole whack up to the servers. So penalizing a large site for appearing overnight would be silly.

(The incoming links on the other hand, would be a tell tale sign that something was amiss. It's pretty much unanimous in the SEO community, to build your incoming links slowly and gradually.)

Then once the portal is up and running, its pretty easy to add RSS to HTML to continue growing the site - at the rate of one page per day - after that.

RSS to HTML ==> http://www.cdzn.com/r2h


Heads or tails? Only one type of search makes money.

Q - I've learned from experience, that you get the highest Google positioning with multiple incoming links. I understand from your ebook - Revenge of the Mininet - that PageRank in a Mininet is concentrated, but don't we need some outside links for competitive keywords?

In other words, is concentration enough? Or do we actually need many - meaning a large number of - different incoming links??

A - You can get incoming links from web properties that you own and control, and from directories that pass PageRank. Here is a partial list:

List of Directories ==> http://strongestlinks.com/directories.php

As I wrote in Revenge, I submit only one site in the mininet ring to a handful of directories. Plus I add in a link or two from blogs that I run. That's usually enough linking to get the spiders crawling.

But the Mininet concept was never designed for "competitive" keywords. Your focus should be on the "tail end" keywords for a mininet. Because that's where the money is!

(You can use the free keyword research tool at NicheBOT.com to find the sweet spots, meaning little competition but heavily searched phrases, with the lowest competition ratios.)

The reason being, that its long been known - and now scientifically proven - that generic competitive keywords are used my information gatherers... not shoppers. In other words, they're just kicking tires.

Targeted keywords - at the tail end - are a lot less popular in the search engines but they are used by shoppers looking to purchase. Much has been written about the "tail of the search" keywords, starting with my own work, Nothing but 'Net (NBN) back in '99, which you can download and read for free. But to put it as clearly as possible...

Competitive "head" of the search keywords used by info seekers are phrases like... cell phones.

Less competitive "tail" of the search keywords used by buyers are phrases like... nokia 5190 replacement battery.

See the difference? Now go back and re-read Revenge of the Mininet very carefully.

Revenge of the Mininet ==> http://www.cdzn.com/rev

If you focus your efforts on the tail of the search, instead of the head, you'll catch a lot more shoppers at the peak of the buying cycle. And once you tap that my friend, you'll discover the true revenue generating power of mininets and affiliate programs.


How to use thematic linking for best results

Q - When linking outside web properties to my mininet, do I link to my home pages, or to the directory page of each minisite in the ring?

And my second question, does the text link "cat supplies" coming into my home page help my internal pages rank for this phrase, even if it does not link directly to them?

A - Link outside web properties to the home page of the minisite. Link the home page to the sitemap, then link the sitemap to the internal pages. Do not link to the internal pages, directly from the home page.

This "Revenge of the Mininet" style linking is very important to continue the overall theme of the minisite. It also concentrates the link popularity and PageRank, to the internal pages, so they come up in less competitive "tail end" search phrases.

Here's what I would recommend. Link to the home page of your minisite with a not-too-generic, yet fairly heavily searched term like, "Caring for Cats and Kittens."

Then continue the theme when linking to the site map with a phrase like "Cat and Kitten Supplies Directory." Then from the site map, make the interior pages super focused, by linking to them with phrases such as, cat health, cat houses, cat toys, beds, furniture, collars, pictures, jewelry, figurines, etc.

And while you're at it, don't forget to continue the overall semantics (site theme) with related words in the body text of the pages. For example, when it comes to cats and kittens, there's keywords like feline, care, information, family, pets, owners, kitty, cute, curious, love, scratch, adopt, find, etc.

So don't just think about keywords for the link text. Weave semantically related words into and around them.


The true value of an internet marketing seminar

Q - I am thinking of attending an internet marketing conference to help jump start my online business. I dont know many marketing gurus out there, so I would appreciate any wisdom you might care to share.

A - Most of the people giving marketing seminars have been around for a while. Many have been customers and friends of mine for over half a decade.

A seminar could be a great jump start for anyone serious about building an online business. In addition to having your head buzzing with ideas will be the networking.... simply meeting and exchanging ideas with other people.

I'm sure that just by getting out there and meeting these people, you'll forge many new working relationships, joint ventures, and meet some new friends. Some will last a lifetime.

And many people reading this letter know that I had similar beginnings. Seminars are how I got my jump start from running an SEO business and evolved my career into ebook writing and online marketing...

It's simple. I attended several internet marketing seminars back in '97 & '98. I got a whole whack of new ideas. And most importantly... made a commitment to act, execute, and apply what I learned.

So yes, if you're looking to "jump start" your online business, then a marketing seminar would - in my opinion - be one of the best learning environments to start.

So get up off your chair and go make some new friends. And while you do, remember the very old and true adage...

"It's WHAT you know and WHO you know, that will determine the success of your online business."

Improve the "what" by constantly adding wisdom and knowledge to what you've already learned. Improve the "who" by meeting others as smart, or smarter than you, and be willing to share what you know.

For knowledge is certain, not mere speculation. Share what you know... and in turn... the universe will share its abundance with you.
