Blogging For Profits: I Will Host Your Blog For FREE

Here is the headline that caught my attention today:

” Six Part Video Series Takes You By The Hand And Shows You Step By Step How To Create Automated WordPress Blogs In Minutes”

Since I have been blogging for awhile and even authored the “Blogging For Profits Series” I normally would have ignored this. Plus I noticed the program was less than $10 bucks, how good could it be. However I received the invitation from Gina Guadio-Graves who I know and trust as someone who doesn’t just sling a bunch of crap out there. Plus, I have been working on some new learning modules for Blogging for Profits so I bought this series for $9.70. I felt if I learned just one thing new, it would be worth it.

Surprise! Surprise! I discovered new places for FREE WordPress templates. I learned new techniques for modifying my themes including images. Then there is the cron job icon on my cpanel (you’ll learn about cpanels if you don’t already know) that I have avoided. After all just say the word cron and it doesn’t exactly sound prosperous. With the package comes the script and plugin you need to automate feeds you decide to syndicate.

If you already are doing the things I described then maybe this package is not for your. However, Eric White does an excellent job of covering very good material in six videos and over an hour of very easy to follow training time.

Here is the link: Create Automated WordPress Blogs In Minutes

I used one of my blogs as a site for implementing the training: It is Success Tips

Bonus – if you order this training I will host your blog for FREE. All you have to do is register a domain name and point it to my server. I will give you that information once you have the course. With this hosting you will have your own dedicated cpanel for your domain. You will notice in the course that you can set up a blog in a directory or subdomain. That is true. However for security purposes, I am only offering FREE hosting for a registered domain name. There is a limit – I just don’t know what it is yet.

All you have to do for this bonus is email me your receipt for the course and the domain name you want me to host. Note hosting is for your blog. You also must be able to modify the name servers for your domain with the company you used for registering your domain. If you don’t know how to do this, you will need to contact them.

This is a very valuable bonus because the set up of your domain is covered rather quickly in this video training and having this done for you will give you a fast start.

May you and all permanently experience prosperous health, happiness and abundance

“The ME Factor” Article 2: The Magic Multiplier Effect

“The ME Factor” is the mathematical result of multiplying your own rating or score for making money (M) times your own rating for how much enjoyment (E) you experience from making your money.

For example, let’s say your personal goal is to make $$10,000 a month and let’s say your income is $10,000 a month. Your money score is 10. Let’s also say you totally enjoy what you do and have no desire to do anything else. That being the case, your enjoyment score (E) is 10. With two 10’s, your ME Factor is 10 x 10 or 100. That is the highest score possible.

Have you ever met anyone with a ME Factor of 100? I have met a lot more people with low scores than I have with high scores. How do I know their score? Well I don’t know exactly, but I can guess by talking with them.

Exercise 1:

What is your ME Factor right now? Give yourself an honest rating. When doing this exercise please keep your score within the context of how well you are doing making the money you want to earn and how much you enjoy what you are doing to make that money. This is not about an overall happiness rating. You may love the work you do but despise your life outside of your work. In a later article, I will share with you some resources that may help you with the areas outside of your work. For now this is just about the work you do and how much you enjoy it.

Why start with the money you make and the enjoyment you derive from doing the work that pays you? Why not start with your overall life happiness level? It has been my experience when a person enjoys what they do for the money they are paid, most other life issues either do not exist at all or are more easily dealt with. So we are starting with your level of satisfaction with the money you make and your rating of how much you enjoy doing what pays you.

Exercise 2:

You are about to discover some amazing tools and techniques for raising your ME Factor. First, whatever your M rating was, raise it by 1 and recalculate your ME Factor. For example let’s say your M rating was 3 and your E rating was 4. In that case your ME Factor is 3×4 or 12. Now add 1 to the 3. The last time I used my fingers for that math I got 4. Now you have 4 x 4 or 16. Notice how by simply raising one of the ratings by 1 you experience the multiplier effect. In this case 4 points were added to your overall ME Factor.

In the next example let’s review Mike whose M rating is 9 and whose E rating is 3. Mike’s ME Factor is 27. When Mike is successful in raising his E rating to let’s say a 6, a three point increase in his E rating takes his ME Factor from 27 to 54 (6×9 =54). His ME Factor doubles!!

Now that you have learned the multiplier effect, isn’t it worth your time to raise your rating on the M or the E or both by at least 1? Do you need more convincing? People with high ME Factors are more likely to be healthy, since there is less stress in their lives. They eat and drink less of the food and drink that is harmful. Less stress usually means they are more productive and easier to get along with. They seem to continually gain more wealth, friendships and even more happiness.

Exercise 3:

a. You have calculated your ME Factor (if not do it now.)
b. List on a separate sheet of paper each idea (one idea per sheet) you have for increasing your M rating and indicate how many points your M rating would increase if you implemented the idea you have listed.
c. List on a separate sheet of paper each idea (one idea per sheet)you have for increasing your E rating and indicate how many points your E rating would increase if you implemented the idea you have listed.
d. For each idea in b and C, list the actions you could take to implement the idea
e. Evaluate all the ideas you have listed and the associated actions and pick the easiest one to implement and raise either your M or E rating by 1.

It is important you focus on increasing the M or E by 1. Not both by 1 or by more than 1. Just 1 and it can be for the M or the E it depends where you need to make the most progress. The time needed for implementation can be immediate or it can be up to one week. This will keep you focused on an idea and actions that are within your control now.

In the articles to follow, we will look more closely at the options for increasing each of the components of The ME Factor. Subscribe to Steve Reports at SteveReports.com so you don’t miss a single edition.

May you and all permanently experience prosperous health, happiness and abundance

“The ME Factor” The Exact Steps To Maximize Your Return On Investment – The Return On Investing Your Time!

Once you understand there are only a couple of ways to make money, the next step is to decide which one maximizes you return on investing time.

This introductory article examines the primary ways to make money and announces The ME Factor for delivering the highest return to you for your time.

Regardless of how you make money, to achieve a maximum return on your own investment in time devoted to making money, you must achieve the maximum score possible for you on “The Me Factor” scale. The highest score possible is 100.

There are many ways to make money and most of them fall into one of two categories: They are:

1. A job where you exchange time for money.
2. Money works for you and makes more money.

There is a hybrid of of these two. This hybrid is usually described within the context of leverage and residual income.

For example, if you have a membership program people pay you a certain amount of money each month to belong. Gold’s Gym, Bally’s, and other fitness clubs are examples of membership clubs. If you own one, you have a job and hopefully have continuity income from recurring monthly or annual fees. If you own a restaurant, you have people walking through the door. However, you have no continuity income.

A membership program is a good example of a business benefiting from leverage and it is considered by some to be a residual income model. Once you have developed the monthly product for one person, it is easy to deliver that product to 2 or 2,000 or 20,000 or more people. The work is in developing the product and continually developing the list of subscribers.

The business model most commonly associated with residual income is network marketing or multilevel marketing. I know there are a lot of people who place that business model in the same category as satan. Factually it is a business model that is very successful. I have learned a great deal about developing business from successful, professionally managed network marketing companies. For one example visit International Success.

Another model is where you have money making money as opposed to exchanging time for money. People I know in that position still spend time monitoring their investments. Money is the primary leverage and this model works as long as the stocks, real estate or other investments produce the targeted return.

Work Is Required For Every Money Making Model. The Key Is Spending Your Time On What Gives You The Most Satisfaction. Announcing “The ME Factor”

You are well served by spending the time you have doing what you like to do and optimizing the return on your investment of time and money. Your return is measured by the amount of money you make and the enjoyment you experience making it. “The ME Factor” is calculated by your rating of how well you are doing making the money you want and your rating of how much you are enjoying how you make money. ME = Money Score x Enjoyment Score.

The ME Factor is key. Again it is a rating developed from the amount of money you make and your level of enjoyment in making it. More on that in the next article.

Now if you thought I was going to tell you the best way to be happy making money you were mistaken. Only you can do that. But I do suggest you look at not one, but more than one way. Some call this multiple steams of income. I don’t think a cab driver by day who waits tables at night thinks about multiple streams of income, but that person does have multiple streams of income. Before you allow a negative thougt to enter your mind’s eye when I describe the cab driver, let me assure you I have met some of the happiest people anywhere when taking a cab and when being served in a restaurant.

Once you understand that multiple streams of income are possible, then you know there is a solution for problems on each side of The ME Factor equation. If you don’t like a particular job you have, you can begin working at something you do like a lot more outside of your primary job. There are many people doing what they love as a result of following that path. Maybe you really enjoy your work but would really like to make some additional money. You can select another source of income based on what you enjoy doing.

What makes sense for you? In the next article we will begin to look more closely at examples of how to calculate and increase your ME Factor score and then increase it.

May you and all permanently experience prosperous health, happiness and abundance

P.S. Please consider what you are doing today and whether you are solely exchanging time for money. If you are, then you need to develop leveraged income. Can you still do what you are doing now and develop leveraged income? Absolutely! For some examples please visit International Success and watch the fee video.

Jason Potash Says It Best

Read this now because it might be another
15 months before you see it again.

Yes, it’s THAT time sensitive.

15 months ago (on December 6th 2005, to be exact)
something major happened online.

Maybe you missed it. It passed by so fast that many
people *blinked* and it was gone within 24 hours.

I am talking about PortalFeeder.

Chances are, you’ve heard about PortalFeeder. Or,
at least you’ve heard *crazy* rumors about it.

There are so many half-truths flying around out
there, you don’t know what to believe anymore.

Let me quickly explain and set things straight…

Back in December 2005, every IM forum was
plastered with chatter and buzz about this new
“product”.

In fact, since PortalFeeder was such a new and
unconventional type of program back then, most of
the talk was made up of wild assumptions and
short-sighted predictions.

“Dead in 6 months” was one person’s exact words.

Others claimed that PortalFeeder was nothing more
than a bunch of $67 scripts and tools dressed up
into a big fancy monthly membership site.

Was this the truth?

But, the big question on everyone’s mind is… what
REALLY happened to PortalFeeder?

As you can tell, nobody has been saying a peep
about PortalFeeder since the doors closed back on
December 7th 2005.

Where do things stand today? Is anybody making
money?

I have some contacts on the inside and am pleased
to report that YES, PortalFeeder is bigger and
stronger than ever.

One PortalFeeder member went from $0 to $10K per
month in just 30 days.

Another member is making $3000 per month in pure
PROFIT after a mere 4 months.

Want to see some more real results and proof like
this?

You’ll see what has been happening behind closed
doors once you visit this site:

http://www.portalfeeder.com

Hint: A LOT has been going on that you don’t know
about.

The good news is, for the first time in over 15
months, PortalFeeder will be accepting new
members starting at 12 noon today (Thursday, April
26th).

But, just like in the past… there are only a limited
number of seats available.

This is NOT an ambush-style, full-out, 200 marketers
hammering their lists, type of product launch.

I am only among a handful of people that even know
about this.

And there is a good reason for it. You see,
PortalFeeder can’t handle 1000 new members all at
once.

Once you realize how robust this software is, the
nature of their new “Mentors” program and their
high level of customer service, you’ll understand
why.

They simply cannot support a flood of 1000 new
members. That’s why only a limited quantity of
members will be accepted.

If things are as crazy as they were back in December
’05, PortalFeeder will quietly close their doors again
real soon, then step away back into the shadows…
and create another few dozen amazing success
stories just like the ones you will see on this page:

http://www.portalfeeder.com

Go ahead. While there is still time (and seats
available), do yourself a favor and check out what
PortalFeeder has become today.

After 15 months of construction… version 2.0 was
just launched and this thing is bigger and *beefier*
than ever before!

If you are tired of quilting together piece-by-piece,
the information you need to succeed online, or have
a hard drive full of tools and scripts that you never
use… PortalFeeder could be exactly what you’ve
been searching for.

There is a reason why current members have been
referring to PortalFeeder as “The Total Solution”.

You’ll see why once you take a peek at what version
2.0 has to offer you. All the training, software, tools,
services and personal mentoring is yours for the
asking, at a price way less than you’d expect.

Visit this page after 12 noon Eastern today for
complete details:

May you and all permanently experience prosperous health, happiness and abundance

Three Days With Gary Halbert

In the fall of 2005 I received an invitation from Gary Halbert to a seminar in Orlando Florida titled “Root Canal”. He wrote many things in his invitation, but I will never forget the sentence where he said he was “the only instructor”.

At other seminars on copywriting and direct response marketing, Gary was always mentioned. Well, he was not just mentioned. There was usually a story to go with it. You either really liked this man or didn’t. Regardless, everyone respected his work.

I was one who liked the man and was fascinated by his marketing mind. Of course I raised my hand almost the instant I received the invitation and several months later I was off to Orlando for the Root Canal seminar.

There were about 60 of us in a small hotel conference room. Gary arrived early sat down and didn’t stop for three days. It was the most remarkable experience. A master just told us as much as he possibly could in three days about what he knew. True to form, he also would have had a large audience rolling out of their seats during a late night comedy hour and I do stress the late night part.

Brock Felt during his launch of Pipeline Profits tells of being called on by Gary for a hot seat and being told by Gary to sit down. I can tell you that is true since I was there. There were others with very recognizable names. I experienced the difference between someone successful and a master.

I know Gary’s influence is with us as long as we want it to be. I am sincerely grateful for having made the decision to attend Root Canal and to have met, talked and experienced his brilliance in person.

The loss of the human form is difficult for all of us. I pray his family. friends and admirers find peace in the letters, tapes and many memories he left all of us. Gary thank you for what you gave.

Blogging For Profits: Why You Need A List Of Adult Keywords

(I have had to set up addional controls on the blogs I publish so there is a minor delay in issuing the 10 Minute MBA Report. Obviously it takes me longer than 10 minutes to publish a report that will give you an MBA in 10 minutes. It will be well worth the wait.)

If you publish a blog and if you invite comments to your blog, you will need a list of adult keywords. Why? Because your blog will be spammed and most of the spammed messages to your blog will include a sex term.

Today I had over 200 spammed messages to this blog. I estimate 90% of them were sex related. Of course I had to inspect all of them (LOL) Since I have the box checked that all comments have to be approved by a moderator, none of these went public.

If your blog receives an occasional spam comment, so what. If your blog starts receiving hundreds a day, that is a problem. The two alternative I am aware of are to not allow comments or to list keywords in you blog filter that are commonly used by spammers. I am hoping a person reading this tells me about another method. If there is one please email me.

When you go through this process you simply login to your admin panel (for WordPress based blogs) click on Manage then click on Awaiting Moderation. You can then see all the comments waiting for your approval. When viewing them you can see the main keyword being used in the spam message. If there is a long message and sex is one of the keywords, by having sex in the filter the entire message will be blocked.

Today I went through my spammed comments for this blog and made my list of keywords and added them to my filter. I have to tell you I have been around for awhile but some of these words caught even me off guard.

To add a keyword to your filter, click on options in the blog admin section, then discussions and then scroll all the way down where you will see a block for comment blacklist. In that section paste your list that you developed in your notepad editor, click Update Options and your are good to go. Again all of these instructions are for a WordPress based blog which is the only one I recommend in Blogging for Profits.

May you and all permanently experience prosperous health, happiness and abundance

HIGH PAGE RANK DOMAIN FRAUD (Very Good Info on PR)

HIGH PAGE RANK DOMAIN FRAUD
It Has Probably Already Happened To You
by Jerry West, SEO Analyst
Posted March 2, 2007

This article covers the rising rate of fraud in the industries of selling expired domains and selling used domains. This article was previously only available to our paid members of the SEO Revolution, but we are releasing it as a public service due to the high level of fraud that is currently in the market.

Recently I purchased some domains from a broker that were good domains and looked to be well established (they had good PageRank). However, when I “got them home” so to speak, they were far from what I thought I had purchased. In my investigation into this, it was clear that many of the domains being sold today from brokers and especially on eBay are littered with fraud.

How To Hit Any Goal: A “Cast In Stone” Success Formula

I recently began working with a business that is another example of a company with enormous potential being held back by a culture that worked when the business was much smaller. The owner discussed with me all the barriers and roadblocks he is experiencing. He expressed doubt that I would be able to break through with the existing team.

In less than two week the owner said ” I see us making great progress – keep it going” What did I do? What I always do – applied the “Success Formula” What is that? It is no secret. Mark Joyner details the process in the first couple of chapters of Simpleology 101 that is FREE

In a Nutshell:

Target-Workplan-Action-Reaction

You cannot achieve anything unless you have a clear definition of what it is that you want. Once you define the target, you must develop a detailed workplan that is time phased and is designed to get you to your destination. None of this is any good unless you take action, measure your action against expected results and modify your plan based on the variances you are seeing.

Plan-Actual-Variance My consulting clients have heard me say this often and demand they do it. After all the bitchin and moanin they get to work and begin to see the results. Gradually you see more and more smiles.

Is this tough? No! The hard part is like anything else. The Process requires consistent application and that takes discipline.

That is why there is big market for consultants and the best consultants are the ones that work with people until their habits change.

By the way, now that you have read this you still need Simpleology 101 because Mark also teaches discipline and does a great job of it. Click Here for Simpleology 101

Live From StomperNet: Why Off Line Companies Should Study Internet Marketers

February 16, 2007, Orlando, Florida.

This week anyone at The Hotel Rosen in Orlando Florida is attending StomperNet or JV Alert. The real value with these conferences is that many of the best, brightest and most successful developers of businesses using the Internet are teaching and interacting with hundreds of smart, experienced and successful attendees.

Those transferring substantial votes of appreciation (money) have received far more in one day than what we gave. For me that happened in the first 2 hours.

A couple days ago I was talking with my former wife (we remain friends – which is how it should be) and I mentioned how a big part of the value I bring to my consulting clients is self-taught. She questioned me about that statement. We then discussed the significant role my work with learning from Internet marketers has played in helping others gain huge positive results for their business.

About 5 years ago I became a serious student of direct response marketing on line and off line and business development on line. In the past 12 hours I have had in-depth discussions with Brad Fallon on sourcing products in China, with Jason Potash regarding the use of article marketing for more traditional businesses and John Reese on website focus and strategy. In the past 12 hours I learned about important trends and new products emerging that can help all businesses.

As a member of StomperNet I will receive the DVD’s from this conference. However, watching DVD’s and being in the same room with all this energy focused on building profitable business is not the same. The best revenue building results achieved by my consulting clients have been by those who have implemented action steps based on what I have learned from conferences and training programs focused on building business. Those clients and companies I work with in the future will receive even more value as a result of my participation this weekend.

What is your business development strategy for this year and what are you doing to tap into the right resources for you to achieve that.

Wish you were here!!

May you and all permanently experience prosperous health, happiness and abundance

Why You Will Be Happy You Read This Message (Most Likely)

I am a major fan of Randy Gage. I hope you enjoy the following as much as I did.

Dear Steve,

Ok, no use denying it. I’ve been remiss in my duties writing
you. Since we talked last I did some R&R in the balmy breezes of
Hawaii, just watching the whales go by, and conducted a program
in San Diego. After that, I journeyed to some not very tropical
places, like Houston, Madison, Wisconsin (minus three degrees),
and Indianapolis.

And speaking of Indy, how about those Colts? Yeah baby!

Unfortunately my poor mother is a long-time Bears fans. As if
that were not enough, she’s also a life-long Cubs fan. Throw in
raising me, and you have to wonder how much agony and suffering
one poor woman is supposed to endure.

Anyway I’m back in South Beach and life is simply delicious. All
the doors and windows are open and the weather is perfect. Those
pale tourists from the Midwest who came down for the Super Bowl
are gone, and only us truly trendy and beautiful people are
left. (With the exception of those pesky Canadians.) The line at
Joe’s Stone Crabs is down to a manageable 30 minutes, Shaq is
back in the line-up, and the Dolphins have a new head coach.

South Beach is back to its normal state of swaying palm trees,
half-naked roller bladers, and crystal meth labs working
overtime. I’m just kidding about the meth labs. Those are across
the bay in Miami. South Beach is only the dealers.

Anyway, it is the perfect time of year to live in South Florida.
Espanola Way is teeming with action for the Sunday Farmer’s
Market, even the crack houses have the windows open, and the
volleyball nets are up at the nude beach at Haulover Park.

And as everything was not already perfect, pitchers and catchers
are starting to report. Anyway, all this joy, fun, and seasons
in the sun has me in an expansive mood, so I decided to write
and let you know about a few cool things you should know about.

My friend Art Jonak turned me on to a fascinating book. It’s
titled, “The Long Tail” by Chris Anderson. It’s a fresh,
insightful, and thought-provoking look at marketing. Everyone in
business should read this, and Internet marketers should
absolutely devour it. This is one of those seminal thinking
books that breaks through conventional thinking like “The
Tipping Point,” “The idea Virus,” etc. Get it at Amazon. Now.

I’m part-way through the new book by Barack Obama. While I won’t
go as far as Joe Biden did when he suggested that Obama was the
first articulate black person to run for president, I will say
he is the best spin master. I thought Jesse knew how to work the
media machine, but Obama plays it like a violin. The book so far
is a brilliant study in positioning. No matter your politics,
read it to see how a master defines his image in the
marketplace.

I can’t remember seeing such heat in a US presidential race so
early before an election before. A lot of serious contenders, a
lot of jockeying for early endorsements, and not just a few
missteps. Looking at it not for the ideology or issues, but just
from a marketing context, there are some fascinating storylines.

First off, can someone please forward this to the Republican
party? Guys, the rule for this election is, “It’s Iraq, stupid.”
When even Pat Buchanan admits the war was a mistake, you’ve got
to realize this one will bite you. Learn the lessons of Vietnam.

Popular sentiment has shifted, and people have realized the best
way to support our troops is to not ask them to be sitting duck
referees in sectarian civil wars.

Special note to Republican hopefuls: If you have a choice of
appearing at a campaign rally with President Bush, or the Dixie
Chicks, start singing country.

And can someone please explain Electoral Collage 101 to the
Democrats? Guys your front runners are all unelectable. In the
last 30 years, America has elected only three Democrats
president: Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, and Al Gore.

The common denominator is that they each came from the South,
and were able to pick up at least a couple southern states.
(With Carter actually grabbing them all.) Unless you nominate
Kevin Federline, you’re going to win New York anyway. You will
carry California anyway. But you still can’t get enough
electoral votes without snagging something down South.

For some reasons, the Democrats have a propensity for running
liberals from the Northeast – who are naturally suited to win
the nomination, but lose the general election. All those little
states with four, seven, or 10 electoral votes out west and in
the south still trump CA and NY.

I honestly believe America is more than ready to elect a woman
or black man president. But when it does happen – it will most
likely be one down south or out west. Which means – gasp – that
it will likely be a Republican!

Now of course if the President invades anyplace else, all bets
are off. Then the Democrats can nominate Federline with Ozzie
Osbourne as his running mate and still win.

It will be fun to watch. In fact, I’m thinking of doing a column
just on the ways the different candidates from both parties use
the Internet for their marketing efforts. This will play an
ever-increasing role in future elections.

Anyway, enough ranting about the vulgarities of the American
political process. Let’s get back to something else you should
know about:

It’s a great offer from Internet marketing guru Derek Gehl. If
you’ve ever wondered where he gets his most lucrative ideas for
generating massive traffic and profits on the Internet, here’s
your chance to find out.

He’s agreed to pull back the curtain of his private testing
laboratories, and that offers you an extraordinary opportunity…

Every month, Derek’s private team of marketing experts spend
literally hundreds of hours testing and researching all the
latest marketing strategies, tools, and resources in every area
of Internet marketing imaginable. They look at the critical
things like search engine optimization, copywriting, email
marketing, site design, product development, pay-per- click
advertising, traffic generation, and affiliate programs.

They throw out anything that can’t make you at least a grand a
week in extra profits, and focus on the stuff that is proven to
work. And now Derek has agreed to give you unlimited access to
all this data.

So if you’ve been afraid to start a website, or know yours is
not making you the kind of money it should, visit:

Marketing Tips
BTW, Derek’s also going to give the first 250 people to contact
him unlimited access to his team of Internet marketing
specialists, so move fast, and then make the most of it.

I’m off to Tampa for another softball tournament this weekend.
I’ll check in on the other side. Hope you have a great week!

-RG

P.S. Click over to Derek’s site and it could be the most
lucrative and productive time you spend this week.

P.P.S. If anyone asks you, I was dating Anna Nicole around the
time of conception.
