			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-315" title="ATM" src="http://imsimple.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/atm.jpg" alt="ATM" width="280" height="299" />Over the past few years, blogging has become extremely popular. Nearly everyone who tries to make money online usually creates a blog very early in their Internet Marketing career, and for a very good reason &#8211; blogs alone can put serious cash into your bank account.</p>
<p>The big problem is that a lot of folks don&#8217;t use blogs properly. There was a time where you could have thrown up a simple Blogger blog, write a couple short articles, put up some Google AdSense ads, attract some web traffic, and then watch the money roll in.</p>
<p>That doesn&#8217;t work any longer.</p>
<p>Sure, you might make enough to pay for a few beers, but it&#8217;s not going to put a roof over your head. The good news is that blogs are still extremely lucrative and can put thousands of dollars into your pocket every single month &#8211; <em>if</em> you know what you&#8217;re doing.</p>
<p>The premier blogging tool, hands down, is <a href="http://wordpress.org">Wordpress</a>. It&#8217;s free, works well, and is easy to use. The only requirement is that you have a hosting account such as <a href="http://imsimple.com/bluehost.php">BlueHost</a> (who we use to host our websites and recommended) to host your website. In your hosting account control panel, you can automatically install Wordpress on your website in less than a minute by using Fantastico or Simple Scripts.</p>
<p>However, the key to making real money with blogs is to get creative. Yes, it&#8217;s a huge cliché&#8230;but you have to think out of the box. That&#8217;s why I use these 6 simple profit machines to maximize my income potential with Wordpress&#8230;feel free to steal them and build your own blogging empire:</p>
<p><strong>Profit Machine #1:</strong> Authority Sites</p>
<p>Setting up simple Niche Authority Sites is one of the easiest ways to start making a profit online, but it&#8217;s also the most time consuming. I wrote out an extensive step-by-step guide to building your first simple blog in a post I made over a year ago: <a href="http://imsimple.com/make-money-online/"><strong>Make Money Online</strong> &#8211; Step-By-Step Method<br />
</a><br />
<em>Note:</em> If you have no money to your name, you can use a Blogger blog to build your first authority site (as I recommend in the above guide), but I do recommend upgrading to Wordpress as soon as possible. It is far more customizable and offers you more opportunity to expand. Wordpress also provides a free blogs via their website, but you want the self-hosted option so you can upload your own themes and plugins.</p>
<p>It takes serious commitment to start one of these and stick to it &#8211; and you won&#8217;t see any immediate returns. However, if you post daily for 2 to 3 months, have a professional design and monetize it properly, you&#8217;ll be light years ahead of competing websites and you will able to pull in at least a few hundred dollars per month.</p>
<p>The real trick to becoming an authority site (rather than a boring &#8220;blog&#8221;) is to either position your company, your brand or yourself as an expert. This is a big stumbling block for a lot of people &#8211; most feel like they&#8217;re not an expert in any particular area. That&#8217;s simply not true. When I asked my Dad if he was an expert in anything, he said no&#8230;but that&#8217;s definitely not the case. He&#8217;s a perfect example&#8230;</p>
<p>My Dad spent 30+ years as a police officer and learned some extremely valuable skills that you wouldn&#8217;t expect. One of them was the ability to write grants that generated millions of dollars for equipment and additional personnel for his department. His success rate was incredibly high &#8211; over 90% of the grants he submitted were approved. That&#8217;s unheard of and it&#8217;s a skill that companies, organizations and individuals would pay thousands of dollars to learn. Starting an authority site about grants would be <em>perfect</em> for him.</p>
<p>You really need to think about your experiences and your interests. Even if you truly don&#8217;t feel like an expert on a topic, you can do research to become one. Spend an afternoon learning the basic &#8220;rules&#8221; of your niche and you&#8217;ll know more than 80%+ of the population, and that qualifies you as an expert.</p>
<p>Once you&#8217;ve established a topic for your authority site, spend some time doing research on the types of phrases people are searching for using a free tool such as <a href="https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal">Google&#8217;s Keyword Tool</a> or a premium tool such as <a href="http://rhodesbros.kickbutt.hop.clickbank.net">Micro Niche Finder</a>. (MNF is highly recommended &#8211; it makes it very easy for you to find profitable long-tail keywords and to quickly assess your competition.)<br />
<em><br />
<span style="font-style: normal;">Once you&#8217;ve found several keyword phrases that people are searching for, you focus your site&#8217;s content around those keywords and post to it daily. You build momentum for your new website by talking about your authority site on other blogs and niche forums, then offer to be a <a href="http://imsimple.com/guest-blogging/">guest blogger</a> for other popular blogs.</p>
<p>You make money via Google AdSense ads and affiliate links to start, but you will want to begin building an e-mail list using a provider such as <a href="http://imsimple.com/aweber.php">AWeber</a> as soon as you start seeing a significant number of visitors pour in. They visit your blog and you offer exclusive content as a &#8220;bribe&#8221; for signing up. With an e-mail list, you&#8217;ll be able to launch your own products or services at anytime. (I like to think of this as writing my own check.)</p>
<p>The potential with an authority blog alone is extremely high. It&#8217;s a very flexible model that can be expanded almost indefinitely, but it&#8217;s just one way to make money with blogs. Here&#8217;s a method that&#8217;s a little less conventional&#8230; </span></em></p>
<p><strong>Profit Machine #2:</strong> Niche Storefronts</p>
<p>A lot of people don&#8217;t know that you can actually setup an entire online store using Wordpress. Whether you want to sell items directly from your blog, or appear as a third-party store and simply refer customers to Amazon as an affiliate, Wordpress can help you establish these profit machines easily.</p>
<p>There are a couple of different ways you can do it&#8230;</p>
<p>a.) You can download a theme that converts your blog into a storefront. Some of these themes are fairly advanced and require a fee to download, but you may be able to find some for free. Once you have your website established, you can use Paypal to accept payments. Some of the more advanced themes even have an &#8220;Add to Cart&#8221; feature built in.</p>
<p>b.) You can download a plugin that automatically pulls in products from websites such as Amazon or eBay. These plugins can automatically include a picture and short description from those sites, integrated with your affiliate link. There are free and premium options for these types of plugins, but the premium options typically provide more options and flexibility.</p>
<p>If you decide to establish a store, you will want to make sure that you add some unique content (as the content you add will be from Amazon or eBay and won&#8217;t boost your search engine rankings) and also implement a professional design. This is effectively a type of authority site, but you will providing direct links to products or services rather than information. It&#8217;s harder to get traffic to these types of sites, but the quality of customers is often higher as they&#8217;re looking to buy a particular type of product.</p>
<p><strong>Profit Machine #3:</strong> Membership Sites</p>
<p>Membership sites are a tried-and-true method for generating long-term cash. There&#8217;s so much to say about memberships that we created an entire course called <a href="http://membershipblueprints.com">Membership Blueprints</a>. With that said, using Wordpress to power and protect a membership site is a very smart way to go.</p>
<p>In fact, we use Wordpress for our Simple Cash Blog Membership, our most popular resource. It&#8217;s extremely easy for anyone to do. First, install Wordpress in the location you want your member&#8217;s area. For example, you&#8217;ll want to install Wordpress in a location such as: http://yourdomain.com/members/</p>
<p>After you&#8217;ve installed it, you simply need to password protect either individual posts or the entire member&#8217;s area. For the Simple Cash Blog, we password protected the entire member&#8217;s directory in under 2 minutes using a tool called the <a href="http://imsimple.com/imsc">Instant Membership Site Creator</a>, which we sell for less than $20. If you want to password protect individual posts or provide different levels of access, you can use a plugin such as <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/s2member/">s2Member</a>.</p>
<p>The best part about using Wordpress for a membership site is that you can actually create content for the membership site in advance and schedule it to be posted at a future date. Your membership site could have a full year&#8217;s worth of content in queue without you ever having to touch it. (Of course, this might not be possible depending on the type of membership or the support you need to provide.)</p>
<p>The toughest part of the membership creation process is that you need to write an extremely powerful sales letter and provide &#8220;addictive&#8221; videos, articles and resources to your members. It&#8217;s significantly harder to get someone to subscribe to a $99 per month membership than to purchase a $99 product. Plus, if your content isn&#8217;t compelling enough, people will drop out. It happens all the time and some folks will even drop out immediately after joining.</p>
<p>The key for the membership site model is to provide an ongoing service or educational material to a very specific market, and to expose your membership to as many of those people as possible by partnering with others, advertising, article marketing and more.<br />
<strong><br />
Profit Machine #4:</strong> Local Businesses</p>
<p>This is a rapidly growing opportunity that nearly every internet marketer can take advantage of. Most small, local businesses do not have a website, but most are rapidly realizing that they need to have one. It adds an immense amount of professionalism to a business if they have a well-designed website, and younger generations use internet search as their first resource to find out reviews or more information about a business.</p>
<p>As a 23 year old living in Toronto, I can tell you that I have only tried out new restaurants if I was able to read their menu online. There is a fantastic fish and chips restaurant 5 minutes down the road that I would have never found if they did not have a website. The website wasn&#8217;t even that fancy &#8211; it was simply professional enough that it gave me confidence that it was a good business.</p>
<p>The potential here is HUGE. There are a nearly endless list of services you can provide to offline businesses&#8230;</p>
<p>* Setup their site using Wordpress, then design it using a related theme (there are a lot of great themes available for restaurants, professional firms, and much more.)</p>
<p>* Charge a yearly fee to host their domain and website for them</p>
<p>* Sell them on Search Engine Optimization services &#8211; it&#8217;s extremely easy to rank for search terms in small towns</p>
<p>* Charge a monthly fee to update their website for them as needed &#8211; news, updates, new products or services and more.</p>
<p>* Charge firms to update their website design or ways to make money directly from their website</p>
<p>* Charge businesses for the ability to sell products directly via their site or to accept online ordering</p>
<p>That&#8217;s really just the tip of the iceberg. It&#8217;s easy to sell these types of services to small businesses. Provide a guarantee and legitimate recommendations to improve their business and you&#8217;ll be able to find a lot of customers who are willing to pay for monthly services.</p>
<p>Wordpress is an extremely powerful tool, but you have to remember that it&#8217;s only a tool &#8211; you need to think out of the box and apply the techniques above to create a profitable website that produces residual income for months and years to come.</p>

The answer surprises most people: <em>pick anything and take action</em>. </p>
<p>I created an <a href="http://30cats.com/go/HowToStart">18 minute audio</a> to help you get started today. I talk about how to get started, what to promote and how to get traffic. It&#8217;s the perfect overview and I highly recommend you <a href="http://30cats.com/go/HowToStart">listen to it</a>.</p>
<p>What to know what I talk about? Here&#8217;s the simple formula&#8230;</p>
<p>You start by doing some niche research, looking at trends, following smart people or just taking a complete guess.</p>
<p>Next, you need to decide what you&#8217;re going to sell or promote. You can be an affiliate marketer, you can sell your own products or you can <a href="http://freebusinessmodel.com/">start your own membership</a>. Almost anything will work.</p>
<p>And lastly, you need to drive traffic using pay per click (PPC), writing blog entries, and writing articles. There&#8217;s a lot more you can do as well.  </p>
<p>This formula is so simple but &#8230; IT WORKS. Of course, there is more to learn. There is a &#8220;secret&#8221; in the audio I created. When you hear me say it &#8212; <em>and clearly explain it</em> &#8212; you&#8217;ll see why the process I&#8217;ve outlined above is so powerful.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not trying to scare you but you will FAIL if you don&#8217;t take my advice. You can pick the perfect niche, create the perfect product to sell or promote, and drive tons of traffic &#8212; but still fail. It&#8217;s important you listen to the audio succeed: <strong><a href="http://30cats.com/go/HowToStart">How to Start Making Money Online</a></strong> (FREE). </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href='http://imsimple.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/one-million-dollars.jpg'><img src="http://imsimple.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/one-million-dollars.jpg" alt="Want One Million Dollars?" title="one-million-dollars" width="300" height="225" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-182" /></a><strong>Do you really want one million dollars?</strong> Here&#8217;s a plan that will work&#8230;</p>
<p>Out of necessity, I will make some assumptions. You can very easily put this entire plan into a spreadsheet and work the numbers. That is, you can create a speadsheet that has plenty of simple variables in it and adjust as you want.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s what you need to do first: Generate $1 of profit. It doesn&#8217;t matter how you generate that first $1 but you need to do it. Try article marketing, affiliate marketing, or freelancing. Write a report and WSO it. It simply doesn&#8217;t matter. Just generate that first $1.</p>
<p>Next, focus like crazy (see: <a href="http://10xMethod.com">10x Method</a>) until you reach $100. If you can make $1 you can make $100. Do the same thing that worked again and again. Get to $100 cash in your account.</p>
<p>Third, invest the $100. This $100 is not for fun and games. It&#8217;s seed cash for your $1,000,000 empire. You can only spend this money to make more money. If you spend it on that caramel macchiato, then don&#8217;t ever plan on doing a JV with me. Don&#8217;t ever plan on hitting the $1,000,000 because you&#8217;re wasting your opportunity. You are just a consumer not a producer &#8212; you need to produce and invest like a wild animal on wild animal crack cocaine. Insane focus to win&#8230;</p>
<p>So, what do you invest in? I don&#8217;t care as long as it throws off cash every single month. You need to buy assets. For our little $1,000,000 journey let&#8217;s stick with something I love dearly: CONTENT. You really can&#8217;t own too much content. Used correctly, content is money. It&#8217;s always possible to generate cash from lot&#8217;s of content. You can sell content. You can re-sell it (think: PLR, MRR). You can use it for pulling in eyeballs; customers with a burning want or need and they have cash.</p>
<p>What kind of content should you buy? For this journey, let&#8217;s talk about straight up articles. The kind you&#8217;d use for a high quality blog entry or a submission to EzineArticles.</p>
<p>Hint: You can set up review sites in various niches quite easily. You can follow any number of methods and use any style of marketing. There&#8217;s no magic here.</p>
<p>Fourth, we&#8217;re going to do some math. We&#8217;re going to assume that you can buy a smashing good article (high quality and 500+ words) for $10. (This is something you can adjust up or down. I can buy content for $4-5, but that&#8217;s a topic for another day.)</p>
<p>So, take your $100 and buy 10 articles. That&#8217;s about 1/3 to 1/2 of a pretty decent web site. Note: You can easily set up a blog or a nice static web site using a free blogging tool and free HTML/CSS templates. This is baby food stuff you can figure out. Got it?</p>
<p>Hint: You&#8217;re going to set everything up as fast as possible. You might need to burn $10-20 of your first $100 on hosting and a domain. Don&#8217;t fight this. Just do it. Or, again, forget about hitting $1,000,000.</p>
<p>Fifth, you&#8217;re going to get your site indexed by Google. You&#8217;re going to submit your RSS feed. You going to use free services to get higher rankings. You&#8217;re going to submit some good comments on niche-related blogs. You&#8217;re going to consider generating a little more cash and joining traffic generation memberships and services, e.g., Traffic Drill. Again, this is all Internet Marketing 101.</p>
<p>Sixth, you&#8217;re going to repeat all of the early steps again. You&#8217;re going to generate another $100-300 and you&#8217;re going to buy more content for your site. The key is reinvesting and focusing to grow, grow, grow.</p>
<p>Note: These 6 steps should only take you 3-4 weeks at most. The truth is that you can do it in 3-4 days. Simply do some work for some other internet marketers. Some freelance work will get you all the seed cash you need. You can generate the seed cash offline too if you really want&#8230;</p>
<p>====== TAKE A DEEP BREATH</p>
<p>At this point you&#8217;ve done what seems like a lot of work and you&#8217;re not rich. Well, get used to it. Getting to $1,000,000 takes time. Some folks can do it extremely fast, but they are in the top 1% and mostly lucky. You&#8217;re in for a battle. It&#8217;s one you can win, but you have to be ready for a serious uphill fight. If you&#8217;re *sincere* about wanting $1,000,000 then keep reading. If not, then pack up and go home.</p>
<p>Listen up. There is plenty of opportunity to make $100 to $5,000 per month for part-timers. You can generate $10-100K per year without being too deadly serious. But, if you want that $1,000,000 there&#8217;s some punishment ahead. I&#8217;m just warning you.</p>
<p>Note: Some internet marketers will disagree with what I just said. Great! I&#8217;ll leave it at that. I welcome disagreement and logical discourse.</p>
<p>====== EXHALE AND GET READY</p>
<p>Seventh, now your niche site is fully operational. Time to really focus on the monetization and working the numbers. Sure, you could have already pulled some cash from your site, but if you haven&#8217;t this is how it works. (Note: Replace &#8220;niche site&#8221; with &#8220;blog&#8221;. It doesn&#8217;t matter.)</p>
<p>I&#8217;m going to assume that you know something about Google Adsense. (Experienced folks: Don&#8217;t groan. I don&#8217;t want to hear it. Just <a href="http://imsimple.com/killadsense/">replace &#8220;Google Adsense&#8221; with Clickbank</a>, pay per lead, eBay affiliate program, or whatever money-making special juice you use. I&#8217;m going to use Google Adsense because it&#8217;s so monkey simple.)</p>
<p>Assuming you put a couple of ads on each of your pages or on your blog entries, you can do something AMAZING.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s this amazing thing? Well, you can easily track and monitor your investment and success. (See why Google Adsense makes sense Mr. Advanced Marketing Pro? Sales metrics right at your finger tips.) You can see exactly how well you&#8217;re doing or not.</p>
<p>* How much does each page, on average generate?<br />
* How much money am I making per day?<br />
* What days are better than other days?<br />
* How am I doing from month to month?</p>
<p>Eighth, you&#8217;re going to figure out what each page is worth re: Adsense. For example, let&#8217;s say that one page, on average, is worth $5 per month in Adsense revenue. This is achievable. But, again, you can manipulate this in your spreadsheet.</p>
<p>Your 30 page niche site generates $150 per month. ($5 per page x 30 pages, got it?) Now, I want you to think about that&#8230;</p>
<p>In just 2 months you&#8217;ll earn back your initial seed investment of $300. Remember that you struggled to hit the $300 mark, but now eyeballs are paying you back in just 2 months.</p>
<p>From the very start of your $1,000,000 quest, in just about 3 months you&#8217;ll be 100% EVEN in terms of your investment. Plus, you now have an asset that throws off, on average, $150 every single month.</p>
<p>Doesn&#8217;t that feel pretty good? I mean, really, that&#8217;s getting pretty close to a car payment. Do 3 months of work and you can get a FREE CAR.</p>
<p>Yes yes yes yes yes, I hear you. That&#8217;s not exactly how things work. It&#8217;s not &#8220;reality&#8221; but listen to me, it&#8217;s damn close. This is how internet marketing really works folks&#8230;</p>
<p>FREE CAR (with just 3 months of work)</p>
<p>You&#8217;ve got to love this game.</p>
<p>====== SIDEBAR START</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s something you must learn from this posting. Throw out all of my advice. All of it. But remember this&#8230;</p>
<p>I bet you would be willing to buy something from me right now. You are officially sold, my Marketing Friend. Go on, you can admit it.</p>
<p>The lesson? Provide the right value the right way to the right people and they will kill to buy from you.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not selling anything here. Put your wallet away. But never forget the lesson I just taught you. This posting had a hidden lesson that I exposed for nothing. I just put it out there for you to devour&#8230;</p>
<p>====== SIDEBAR END</p>
<p>Where were we?</p>
<p>Oh yes, back to your $1,000,000. Here&#8217;s what&#8217;s next.</p>
<p>Ninth, you&#8217;re going to keep working and investing as if your very life depends on it. You&#8217;ll sacrifice and work like a beaten dog. You&#8217;ll smile and wake up every day ready to pound through any obstacle.</p>
<p>The End.</p>
<p>Just kidding. You&#8217;re going to take the $150 you generate each month and you&#8217;re going to re-invest in more content. And, you&#8217;re going to still work to continue to add more to the &#8220;pool&#8221; of money for buying even more content on top.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s do the math&#8230;</p>
<p>Month 4 (remember, we&#8217;ve put in about 3 months of work at this point.)<br />
30 pages of content &#8211;> $150 in Adsense per month &#8211;> buy 15 more pages = 45 total pages</p>
<p>Month 5<br />
45 pages of content &#8211;> $225 &#8211;> 22 more pages = 67 total pages</p>
<p>Month 6<br />
67 pages of content &#8211;> $335 &#8211;> 33 more pages = 100 pages (wow)</p>
<p>Month 7<br />
100 pages of content &#8211;> $500 &#8211;> 50 more pages = 150 pages</p>
<p>Month 8<br />
150 pages of content &#8211;> $750 &#8211;> 75 more pages = 225 pages</p>
<p>Month 9<br />
225 pages of content &#8211;> $1,125 &#8211;> 112 more pages = 337 pages</p>
<p>Month 10<br />
337 pages of content &#8211;> $1,685 &#8211;> 112 more pages = 449 pages</p>
<p>Month 11<br />
449 pages of content &#8211;> $2,245 &#8211;> 224 more pages = 673 pages</p>
<p>Month 12<br />
673 pages of content &#8211;> $3,365 &#8211;> 336 more pages = 1,009 pages (wow)</p>
<p>Month 13<br />
1,009 pages of content &#8211;> $5,045 &#8211;> 505 more pages = 1,514 pages</p>
<p>Month 14<br />
1,514 pages of content &#8211;> $7,570 &#8211;> 757 more pages = 2,271 pages</p>
<p>Month 15<br />
2,271 pages of content &#8211;> $11,355 &#8211;> 1,135 more pages = 3,406 pages</p>
<p>Month 16<br />
3,406 pages of content &#8211;> $17,030 &#8211;> 1,703 more pages = 5,109 pages</p>
<p>Next month you generate $25,545 from those pages. That&#8217;s right&#8230;</p>
<p>After 1.5 years of intense work you now generate a staggering $25K per month. Just from content, advertising, and reinvesting your profits. The power of compounding is obvious.</p>
<p>========= PAUSE</p>
<p>Now, before any Experienced Marketers bite my head off please understand that I know the limitations here. This is an idealistic model. Issues include:</p>
<p>1. Finding that many writers and coordinating them.<br />
2. Editing, updating, and posting the content.<br />
3. Potential fall off in advertising<br />
4. Technical issues and downtime.<br />
5. Competition or death-by-Google-exclusion or sandboxin&#8217;</p>
<p>There are plenty of reasons why this is complete hogwash. But, you can adjust this in any way that you want. The basic principles apply. This is a model that makes sense and folks can follow it.</p>
<p>========= PLAY</p>
<p>To make everyone happy, let&#8217;s do this. Let&#8217;s assume that you simply cannot grow beyond 5,000 pages. Fair enough, right? You just can&#8217;t. It makes this more fun&#8230;</p>
<p>Now you&#8217;re generating $25,000 per month. It takes work, but you&#8217;re doing it. Bravo!</p>
<p>Now it&#8217;s time to end the story&#8230;</p>
<p>Take $25K and simply divide it by $1,000,000. (I&#8217;m ignoring the fact that you&#8217;ve made money along the way, for a moment.)</p>
<p>$1,000,000 / $25,000 is 40. What&#8217;s the &#8220;40&#8243; really mean? That&#8217;s 40 months. $25K per month x 40 months is $1,000,000.</p>
<p>To cut to the end, that&#8217;s less than 4 years &#8212; START TO FINISH &#8212; to hit $1,000,000 in profit.</p>
<p>&#8230;</p>
<p>Now, you can talk about taxes, cost of living, and anything else. I will simply respond with a &#8220;So what?&#8221; and tell you to squeeze out more profits or outsource better or do something else clever.</p>
<p>The point is that, roughly speaking, you can hit $1,000,000 in about 4-5 years if you&#8217;re deadly serious.</p>
<p>My advice? Print this out and tear it apart. Figure out why I am right and why I&#8217;m wrong. Take notes on what YOU can do. Make a plan to hit $1,000,000 starting today &#8212; knowing with full confidence that you can do it. The numbers simply don&#8217;t lie.</p>
<p>Hint: Keep in mind that there are many &#8220;wealth accelerators&#8221; such as JVs, spending money on high quality traffic generation services, smart outsourcing, under-exploited niches and keywords, and more.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m assuming plug-n-chug &#8220;take the hill&#8221; actions that aren&#8217;t very risky or interesting. It&#8217;s your job to improve on my model and get rich a lot faster, ethically and responsibly.</p>
<p>The best way to pay me back for this posting is to write something even better. Improve my model and tell every single marketer how you would do it. Pass this knowledge around to those people that deserve and desire success.</p>
<p>(My friend, this is not a dream.)</p>
<p>I sincerely wish that you hit one million dollars in 3-4 years, or less.</p>
<p>~ John </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today I made over $80 from a small list. About 3 weeks ago I wrote up 2 messages. The first one was 99% pure content; full of advice. The second one was about 80% advice and 20% soft selling. I&#8217;m seeing excellent conversions in large part due to the amount of free content I provided. My subscribers are very satisfied.</p>
<p><em>Sidebar:</em> <a href="http://reallysimplemethod.com/aweber.php">We recommend AWeber</a> if you haven&#8217;t picked an autoresponder system. It&#8217;s top notch.</p>
<p>My point is that <strong>this would not be possible without autoresponders</strong>. I put in some work a few weeks ago, when I about an hour of spare time, and now I easily made $80. There&#8217;s more to come, too. Many people on my list haven&#8217;t even made it to these two messages.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re new to internet marketing keep these three things in mind:</p>
<p>1. Build your list (there are so many ways to do this)<br />
2. Keep adding free content to your autoresponder<br />
3. Keep adding valuable marketing messages to your autoresponder</p>
<p>Over time, this will make you money on &#8220;autopilot&#8221; &#8212; <strong>we make a lot of money</strong> by using this time-tested 3-part system.</p>
<p>Is it instant? <em>No way! </em>It takes time to build a list, but you can do it easily enough. And, does it take effort? <em>Absolutely!</em> But, you can spread the work over many days and months. You&#8217;ll be rewarded &#8212; like The Rhodes Brothers have been &#8212; over time.</p>
<p>Oh, and one last thing. You can completely eliminate the &#8220;work&#8221; part of the system. That is, you can add content to an autoresponder that you have already posted on your blog. You can simply point to the blog entry in fact. You can also <a href="http://PLRmodel.com"><strong>exploit your PLR</strong></a>. Buy the right content for a fair price, massage it a little, and add it to your autoresponder series. Your list will love you for it.</p>
<p><em>Sidebar:</em> Have you seen the <a href="http://plrmodel.com/blog/">PLR Model blog</a>? (Tons of free information about using PLR.)</p>
<p>My final point is that &#8220;classic systems&#8221; will generate side money at first, like paying down your credit cards. Then, before you know it,Â  you&#8217;ll have cash to go on vacation. Then, you&#8217;ll be buying cars and trucks for cash. And your mortgage will be gone, and you&#8217;ll be working for yourself. In a few short years &#8212; or sooner! &#8212; you&#8217;ll even be able to make the decision to hire people if you want.</p>
<p>~ John</p>
<p>p.s. <em>You&#8217;re not entitled to success.</em> You have to plan a little, then put in the time and effort. Or, pay someone else to give you a jump start. But, I can say with absolute certainty that <strong>anyone can use lists and autoresponder messages to build a business</strong>. I&#8217;ve been doing it for a while now, along with many other simple systems.</p>
<p>p.p.s. We discuss many systems just like this inside the <a href="http://simplecashblog.com"><strong>Simple Cash Blog</strong></a>. If you&#8217;re looking for simple models, and if you&#8217;re looking to succeed like so many of our students, take advantage of the Simple Cash Blog right now. Or, if you&#8217;d like to see another free business model using autoresponders then you absolutely MUST head over to <strong>FreeBusinessModel.com</strong> &#8212; it&#8217;s a totally <strong><a href="http://FreeBusinessModel.com">free video that explainsÂ  autoresponder memberships</a></strong>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Do you know how to spot a fake email?</strong> Do you know ifÂ it&#8217;s been &#8220;spoofed&#8221; or not? Do you know if that email really came from eBay or PayPal, or even your bank?Â </p>
<p>Internet marketers, like &#8220;The Rhodes Brothers,&#8221; have to constantly keep aware of technology. We have to worry about what&#8217;s coming next, industry trends, and also the pitfalls. It&#8217;s that last part that we must really worry about. We worry about fake emails. It&#8217;s just part of our jobs.</p>
<p>After a few hours of research, we found something that we&#8217;d really like to share. It&#8217;s actually produced by eBay which makes sense when you think about it. They really have to manage their reputation. Ebay would take a revenue and profit hit if people lost faith.</p>
<p>In any event, here&#8217;s some information about <strong><a href="http://pages.ebay.com/education/spooftutorial/">how to spot a fake email</a></strong>, or a spoofed email. It&#8217;s a great little, simple tutorial from eBay and we recommend that you take a look.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A while back &#8220;The Rhodes Brothers&#8221; were trying to make money with our niche web sites using Google Adsense. We put together high quality web sites with great original content and then we added Adsense to those sites. (You&#8217;ve done this, right?)</p>
<p>At first, this seemed like a great way to <strong>make money online</strong>. But then we started doing the numbers and we realized that we were only making a few pennies per click. It took a lot of work to create these sites. Although we were making some reasonable cash, it wasn&#8217;t all that much considering all the work required. (Again, sounds familiar doesn&#8217;t it?)</p>
<p>So, in typical &#8220;Rhodes Brothers&#8221; commando fashion, <em>we started the assault&#8230;</em></p>
<p>We spent weeks analyzing Google Adsense. We realized that it&#8217;s very powerful in terms of matching content to advertisements. The secret of Google Adsense is definitely the algorithm that powers this content-to-advertsement matching.</p>
<p>But that nifty little algorithm isn&#8217;t making &#8220;The Rhodes Brothers&#8221; wealthy and it probably isn&#8217;t getting you wealthy either. Instead, Google&#8217;s making the big money, and if you&#8217;re using Adsense, <em>you&#8217;re getting just a few cents per click</em>. Blah!</p>
<p>After weeks of research, we found a way to use the Google Adsense content-to-advertisement algorithm to our advantage. We now make excellent money on our content web sites but we don&#8217;t use Google adsense in most cases. But, Google&#8217;s still helping us make money.</p>
<p><strong>The secret is that we&#8217;re using Google against Google</strong>. We watch from the sidelines and when the fight is over, we swoop in and get superior intelligence on what really makes money. We get the gems and we make big money from our content sites.</p>
<p><em>You can too&#8230;</em></p>
<p>For the first time, we&#8217;ve put together a <a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=6EirOSOKQeU">free video</a> that explains why this technique is so powerful. We help you understand how to make more money than you&#8217;re making with Google Adsense. Definitely take a look right now&#8230;</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=6EirOSOKQeU">Get Rid of Adsense and Make More Money Online</a></strong></p>
<p>The video is completely free and it&#8217;s posted on YouTube for easy access. Learn more about how to <a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=6EirOSOKQeU">get rid of Adsense to make more money</a>, right now.</p>

Google Adsense [...]]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It seems like everyone is jumping on the Google Adsense bandwagon these days. You hear all kinds of stories about how you can make thousands of dollars from Google Adsense. But what is the real story? Can you really become rich overnight with Adsense? This article will explain <strong>Google Adsense is a bad idea.</strong></p>
<p>Google Adsense enables webmasters to place some code on their site that connects to Google&#8217;s ad server content database. This database pulls keyword relevant advertising to the website. The webmaster gets paid a percentage of the fee that Google receives every time a visitor clicks on an ad. This doesn&#8217;t sound too bad so far. But, let&#8217;s take a closer look.</p>
<p>There are three variables that affect how much you can make with Google Adsense. They are:</p>
<p>1.How much traffic your site draws.<br />
2.How many visitors click on your ads.<br />
3.How much those ads pay per generated click.</p>
<p>The first variable you have a little control over. You can increase traffic to your site through <a href="http://imsimple.com">internet marketing</a>. This is something you should be doing anyway if you want a successful site.</p>
<p>However, the next two variables you have no control over. You can&#8217;t make a visitor click on an ad and you don&#8217;t know how much that ad will pay per click. It&#8217;s kind of like playing the lottery, which is why we put together a report that explains <a href="http://imsimple.com/killadsense/">how to make a lot of money <em>without</em> Google Adsense.</a></p>
<p>Back to the story&#8230;</p>
<p>What about all of those people who claim they make thousands of dollars per month with google adsense? Yes, there are people out there who are making a lot of money using Google Adsense but they are not doing it with just one website. They have 500 or more websites! That&#8217;s right, 500 to 2000 or more websites.</p>
<p>The truth is the average income from Google Adsense per website is less than a dollar per day. So, to make any type of big money with adsense you need to have a boatload of websites. Just think of the money you have to spend to create these websites, such as domain names and hosting. Then there is the time spent managing all these sites and trying to drive traffic to them.</p>
<p>The next problem is you are constantly dealing with sites that don&#8217;t get indexed or get de-indexed or get banned. Plus you have to be very careful with the content of your sites. You must pay for original content or own the rights with absolute certainty, or you may receive a letter from Google about DMCA copyright infringement which could cost you your adsense account. It&#8217;s fairly common knowledge that Google is changing the rules all the time so you need to make sure you stay on top of them.</p>
<p>If you  have a website that sells your own unique product, it doesn&#8217;t even make sense to use Google Adsense on your site. You are doing nothing but driving traffic to your competitors sites. You&#8217;re selling for others.</p>
<p>So if you are planning on starting a website and making a ton of money just from Google Adsense, think again.  It&#8217;s probably not going to happen.</p>
<p><strong>TIP:</strong> If you already use Google Adsense, check out <a href="http://imsimple.com/killadsense/"><strong>Adsense Judo</strong></a>. It&#8217;s a reprot that will help you eliminate Adsense but make a ton more money. It&#8217;s extremely effective.</p>
