Steven Wagenheim just posted in the famous “Warrior Forum” a simple way to make some quick cash.

It involves google trends, blogspot, digg, quick action, keyword research and being willing to lose 6 times out of 10 (or more), but with the occasional hit more than making up for it.

Twitter - Don’t follow everyone

admin — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 16:40:36 +0000

Here’s some things I learned about using Twitter:

Don’t follow anyone just reciprocal because they follow you. There’s different reasons for that. First - do you really have time to follow thousands of people? No way.

And then, what does it look like if you’re following thousands of people? Everybody who looks at your Twitter account can see how many people you are following. So what does it look like if you have 200 followers and are following 2000 people? It’s kind of like the guy who’s calling five people every day to hang out together, but nobody really wants to, but some people just accept it because they can’t say no. Think that’s funny? Well, it IS funny, but it’s human nature too. Don’tunderstimate this simple stuff.

It’s kind of like in high-school, but adult life is really like another version of high-school life, plus we’re acting like we’re not high-school kids anymore…

Good Will Goes A Long Way

If you’re involved in Internet Marketing at all, you are aware that John Reese just launched his Traffic Secrets 2.0 course.

Every online marketer is basically promoting this - everyone is offering some kind of special bonus for this course if you buy through him.

A custom made website, an ultra-important DVD set, a private coaching session, a point-n-click profit system, etc. etc.

But one marketer made a bold step and stands above the crowd:

Frank Kern.

What did he do? He sent out an email to his list telling them: buy this course wherever you want from whomever you want, just buy it before July 16th. And you’ll get two of my top-content DVDs for free. Even if you don’t buy through me.

Now why did he do that?

1) Because everybody and his mother bought TS2.0. Now, Frank conctacted John and told him about this and offered him to send all the DVDs to the fullfillment company so they include it in the package. This way, he get’s to “jump on the bandwagon” a little bit, because everybody who ordered TS2.0 will now also know the name Frank Kern and will associate it with something positive because he delivered pure value.

2) Frank’s a cool dude.

So, whatever your business is (even if you don’t do anything online) ask yourself: how can I create goodwill? The more the better!

This is a bit on the technical side, but if you deal with these issues yourself you have to know these things: Shoemoney just wrote a great post on Link Cloaking, Masking and Redirection.

Now this is something that really nobody wants to deal with: disclaimers, privacy policies, etc. But you can get yourself into some serious trouble if you don’t take care of that.

Here’s some good resources for you that will make it much easier for you:
