Affiliate Elite from Brad Callen at www.affiliateelite.com -- A Review

You probably received a huge number of emails about Affiliate Elite yesterday.

My first impression was that it was not so intuitive. If you have purchased either SEO Elite or Keyword Elite before you will know what I mean when I say that. It took me a few hours to work out how the software worked and then I was totally wowed.

Take a look at Affiliate Elite at: www.affiliateelite.com

I knew what results I was trying to get having seen 4 videos which are linked to from the salespage. However, it did take me a bit of working out to know how to get there.

Ben Shaffer wrote me about the results he got with affiliateelite.com ALREADY!!

1. I have a high-selling product in a nice outside of Internet Marketing on
Clickbank. However, I do have a competitor who constantly outranks me. Using the software I was able to find out his affiliates and have now emailed them. Yum yum! I am actually going to be offering them a higher commission rate than my competition.

2. I have 3 products that I successfully promote within internet marketing which I promote exclusively through Google Adwords. Using the software, I was able to find out the keywords which other affiliates are using successfully in order to increase my sales.

3. I was also able to analyze one of my competitors to find out what keywords he is successfully using in organic search in order to make sales.

In short, this tool is extremely valuable and is worth many times its purchase price.

Is AffilliateElite from Brad Callen something that you need?

If you are doing affiliate marketing using PayDotCom and Clickbank or are selling a product which has competitors which are using PDC and/or Clickbank then you really should not hesitate to purchase this tool as if your competitors are then you will soon notice the advantage that they have over you.

Long Tail Keywords Traffic by Jason Dolman from www.longtailtrafficsecrets.com

Long Tail Keywords Traffic by Jason Dolman from www.longtailtrafficsecrets.com

Long tail keywords almost always convert much better than general
keywords. This has been proven time and time again.

If you are not using long tail marketing strategies, then you are
missing out on a ton of traffic.

I recently read a KILLER ebook on long tail traffic. It is really
informative (113 pages) and I enjoyed it thoroughly!

Some of the topics include:

- Safe, white hat search engine optimization techniques that work
like gangbusters now and will keep on working for years to come.

- Unique step by step instructions for flying under the radar and
capturing top search engine rankings for hidden search terms that
will make you real money.

- 3 different strategies barely used to generate mega traffic and
super power your long tail traffic results, including top methods
for capitalizing on Squidoo, Wikipedia and 5 other key sites.

- A simple content page you can create in a few minutes that will
have website owners falling over themselves to link to you. Plus,
5 hooks that almost force backlinks to your website.

There is a lot more, but those are a few of the nuggets. ;)

If you want to bulletproof your traffic and get top search engine
rankings, then you need to get a copy at:

links to your site. Imagine what that will do for your
search engine rankings!

=======================
It Really, REALLY Works
=======================

I'm not going to waste a lot of time pitching this service
to you. I'm just going to let you read other peoples'
words and experiences with 3WayLinks.net -- what they
have to say is far better than anything I could say
to you.

Here are just a few:

-----------------------------------------------------------

Hi Jon,

We are absolutely blown away by the results we have seen
since joining 3WayLinks.

Our site has gone from the fifth page of Google to number 1
in Google (out of 2,670,000) for our primary keyword.

We are now #2 (out of 2,770,000) for our second keyword.

We are now #3 (out of 1,850,000) for our third keyword.

These results are beyond our wildest expectations. Thank
you so much for providing this amazing tool!

M. Flanigan

-----------------------------------------------------------

Looking for linking partners is a full time job in itself
and I've never really gotten around to doing it because I
find it so tedious.

3WayLinks is really a set it and forget it type tool that
gives you the leverage you need to explode your traffic!

In the past two weeks my website traffic has almost
doubled and I don't see that slowing down any but only
increasing. I'm impressed and pleased to say the least.

M. Oliver

-----------------------------------------------------------

Jon,

You have done it again mate. Another quality revenue
raising platform for the masses.

My site has been bumped up the Google list enormously for
my chosen keywords. The clincher is the traffic. Up by
over 38%. Consequently my sales are up over 22%.

It is true. The simple things in life, or the internet in
this case, are often the best. 3waylinks is so basic, it
is brilliant.

Congrats mate.

============
How It Works
============

You submit your site, provide a few details about the
links you want to show up in the network, and then upload
a PHP file to your site and add a link to it from your
homepage.

That's it. There's nothing else to it.

In 24 hours or less, links will start to appear across
the network pointing at your site with the keywords
you chose. Slowly, steadily (just the way Google likes
it), the links will spread at a rate averaging about
4 per day, until you have 250 one-way, in-bound links
across the network.

======================
How Much Does It Cost?
======================

That's the wrong question. What you should be asking is:
How much can it earn for me? I’ll tell you straight up: a
membership in the 3WayLinks.net network is $47 a month.
That lets you put 20+ sites into the network.

Now, if you're thinking that $47 a month is too much for
you to afford right now, look at it this way:

Let's say you have only one web site at the moment,
and let's say you do the keyword research and pick the
right keywords to rank for, and 3WayLinks.net builds your
ranking so that you're getting even just 1,000 unique
visitors a month.

If you sell a product on the site that earns you $20 a
sale, and converts 1% of your unique visitors into
buyers -- that's 10 sales a month, for a total of $200
a month.

Was it worth $47 a month? Absolutely! A 420% return
on your investment!

But why would you stop there? You can take that $200
and invest a little of it into building 4 more niche
sites. You carefully do your keyword research again
for each site, and set yourself up for another 1,000
visitors per month for each site.

If you again have a $20 product for each niche site
that converts at 1%, that's $200 for each of the 5
sites you now have up. Five times $200 is $1,000
a month.

But again, why stop there? 3WayLinks.net lets you
add 20 sites to the network. If you can get 20
sites earning in that same neighborhood -- which
is very realistic -- that's $4,000 a month! All
from your $47 a month.

That's an 8,500% return on your investment!

Of course, mileage will vary depending on how well you
do your keyword and product research, and how much
competition is out there, but that should give you an
idea.

$47 a month doesn't look so expensive now, does it?

====================
More Success Stories
====================

There are SO MANY success stories for 3WayLinks.net, and
in a very short period of time (about 3 weeks). Here are
a few more:

-----------------------------------------------------------

Jon - You Are A Genius!

My site went from nowhere, to the first page in google in
just a few weeks! My traffic more than tripled in just a
few weeks time...like all of your products, this is another
super-duper invention!

For anyone trying to rank in the search engines, 3WayLinks
is an absolute must!

Thank you for making this possible Jon.

K. Troyer

-----------------------------------------------------------

Hi Jon,

Having initially been sceptical about your claims, I am
glad to be able to say now that the scepticism was
unfounded, as my site jumped from position 38 to number
one for the chosen keywords in just 2 weeks.

Best of Luck,

P. Dindorp

-----------------------------------------------------------

All of my hard work and dedication landed me on page 9
before joining 3WayLinks.net, so I was floored when I hit
#1 for my primary keyword after just 3 weeks of being a
part of your system. Wow!

If you have a website, joining 3WayLinks.net is absolute
easiest, most efficient way to get to the top.

Thank you so much!

3 Way Links at www.3WayLinks.net

Here is an email from Jonathan Leger about his new service...

I wanted to send an update about how well my new 3WayLinks
service is working for the sites who are getting into the
network.

The response has been incredible so far, and I don't want
you missing out on this amazing opportunity to get your
web sites ranking well in Google, Yahoo and MSN. 62% of
the site in the network have PageRank, some as high as
PR7! Imagine all of these sites linking to YOURS.

It's been 7 days since the last time I ran a rank check
across 678 sites on the network to see how well they're
doing in the search engine results.

I initially ran the rank check 14 days after the sites
entered the network. In that 14 day period, the sites
made the following gains:

Gained 100 points => 5 sites
Gained 90 - 99 points => 14 sites
Gained 80 - 89 points => 22 sites
Gained 70 - 79 points => 32 sites
Gained 60 - 69 points => 26 sites
Gained 50 - 59 points => 30 sites
Gained 40 - 49 points => 42 sites
Gained 30 - 39 points => 64 sites
Gained 20 - 29 points => 75 sites
Gained 10 - 19 points => 107 sites
Gained 1 - 9 points => 252 sites

(Where a "point" is one ranking position in Google. i.e.
if a site moved from #10 to #9 for its keywords, it gained
one "point". Also, all point gains shown occured in the
top 100 results.)

Now, 7 days after running those tests, I've run the rank
check again to see if the sites are continuing to rise.
The results are a resounding YES. Here are the gains
made in the last 7 days IN ADDITION to the initial gains
made in the first 14 days:

Gained 100 points => 6
Gained 90 - 99 points => 12
Gained 80 - 89 points => 13
Gained 70 - 79 points => 16
Gained 60 - 69 points => 13
Gained 50 - 59 points => 14
Gained 40 - 49 points => 18
Gained 30 - 39 points => 26
Gained 20 - 29 points => 29
Gained 10 - 19 points => 51
Gained 1 - 9 points => 183

Hundreds of sites continue to rise in the rankings for
their chosen keywords, even though LESS THAN HALF of the
links that will eventually point to these sites are now
live! That means there are more increased rankings to
come.

In just 7 days, 393 more sites have moved into the top 10
results for their keywords in Google, and an additional 9
have reached the #1 placement for their keywords.

What are you waiting for? Start your
sites climbing up the search engine results RIGHT NOW
by joining the 3Waylinks network at:

It takes 5 to 10 minutes at most to get your site setup and
in the network.

ThemeZoom is Closing Down

Over the course of the past year I have had many SEO 20/20
students ask me about ThemeZoom.

I persisted (as well as many others) in getting the ThemeZoom
staff to give us an exact rundown of everything that ThemeZoom
does.

After seeing what they came up with I was shocked!

Without hype or BS the list of ThemeZoom functions and benefits
resulted in a sales page that is so long it's almost
ridiculous.

What's funny is the fact that there is no fluff or
hype in the sales letter at all... It's nothing but features
and benefits.

Finally we have a definitive definition of what ThemeZoom is!

http://launch.themezoom.com/Charles-Heflin/nsl.php

Russell and the ThemeZoom staff finally put this thing together
just in time for them to shut their doors to the public.

I asked Russell why he was doing this and he said that they
have to focus on their core group of customers and give them
their undivided attention.

If you are on the fence about using ThemeZoom then hopefully
this letter will shed some light on it. You need to hurry though
because the doors to ThemeZoom are slamming shut.

http://launch.themezoom.com/Charles-Heflin/nsl.php

I know it may take you a while to read it and watch the videos
but it is worth it not just because ThemeZoom is worth it but
because the knowledge given in the letter is powerful.

Common Sense search engine optimization SEO

Jonathan Leger brought it to the POINT:

When it comes to search engine optimization, there are a
lot of myths and rumors floating around about what does
and does not work. A lot of this "knowledge" appears
valid, because it sounds like it should be true, but beware!

Much of the information floating around about the right
way to optimize for the search engines (especially Google)
is very, very wrong. A lot of it is based on assumptions:

"Google must be smart enough to consider [erroneous
conclusion here]…" or "I BELIEVE Google [additional erroneous
information here] …"

Some of it is based on old truths. For example, search
engines used to have a harder time indexing script-based
sites (i.e. PHP instead of plain HTML), and so those sites
didn't do as well in the index. But that was a long, long
time ago (in web years anyway).

The engines have long since been ranking script-based
sites in among plain HTML with no problems — but the rumor
is still heard even today.

Be careful what you believe about SEO. If you're reading
an article or forum post about a particular method or
technique, make sure it's backed up with actual data,
evidence, and examples before running out and starting
to apply it to your site.

What you'll find in most cases is that the supposed "facts"
aren't actually being demonstrated or backed up with proof
and examples.

Let me give you two BIG myths as examples, and show you
actual proof that they are, in fact, bogus (at least
right now).

1. The Themed-Link Myth
========================

This is one of my favorite myths. Everyone assumes that
Google simply MUST be smart enough to know whether your
links are coming from sites that have the same (or related)
theme, and therefore links from sites with the same theme
are the only way to rank for your keywords.

Pure myth.

Google may, in fact, know whether or not the links are
coming from websites of a similar theme. It may, in fact,
add more weight to these links. But to claim that you MUST
get links from similarly-themed sites in order to rank is
pure mythology.

Here are some examples that disprove the claim:

Site: submitexpress.com
Keywords: search engine optimization
Rank: #3 in Google

The phrase "search engine optimization" is probably one of
the most difficult phrases to rank for. After all, all of
the best search engine marketers want to hold the top
positions for those keywords in order to sell their
services.

Submitexpress.com is doing very well in this regard, ranking
#3 for the phrase (as of this writing). Number one is held
by Wikipedia, and number two by Google itself.

If you go to Google and take a look at the backlinks
pointing to submitexpress.com (using the link: command),
you'll notice that very, very few of those links have
anything to do with search engine optimization or marketing
at all. The exception are internal links from the domain
itself, and that's about it.

So if it's such a fact that you have to have links from
similarly-themed sites in order to rank for your keywords,
how does this site manage to pull off such a huge feat?

Simple: you don't have to have links from sites of the same
theme — you just need a lot of links with your keywords
in them!

Site: www.younevercall.com
Keywords: free cell phone
Rank: #1 in Google

Yes, this site ranks #1 in Google for the very competitive
phrase "free cell phone". But almost none of its backlinks
come from sites or pages having anything to do with cell
phones, or phones, or communications in general (go to
Google and see for yourself–but be warned, some of the
links are from adult sites).

So again, another site ranking for a competitive set of
keywords that somehow manages to do it without "themed links".
How is this possible if you can only rank well with themed
links?

And again, it's simple: you don't have to have links from
sites of the same theme — you just need a lot of links with
your keywords in them!

Here are a couple more examples that rank very well for
difficult keywords despite almost all of their links coming
from off-theme sites, in case you want to explore further
(but I won't go into detail about these):

Site: www.hoodia-dietpills.com
Keywords: hoodia
Rank: #3 in Google

Site: www.affiliatescout.com
Keywords: affiliate programs
Rank: #1 in Google

Does this mean that Google won't put more emphasis on
theme-related links in the future? No, it doesn't. They
might, they might not. But whether they aren't quite as
"smart" as people think they are, or they've just chosen
not to do it (for whatever reason), it is still quite
possible to rank for very difficult keywords with all of
your links coming from off-theme sites.

One point that has proven to make a real difference: Google
is discounting reciprocal links more than it used to. They
still matter, just not nearly as much. One-way links appear
to be the way to go.

2. The Themed-Content Myth
==========================

Another "common sense" notion about Google is that all of
the content on your site should revolve around the same
theme, otherwise it won't rank well for the keywords you
want to because your theme will get "too diluted".

Pure mythology.

The number one biggest proof against this notion is
Wikipedia.org. Wikipedia.org covers almost 2 million very
diverse topics (as of this writing), and yet ranks
incredibly well for a huge array of keywords.

In fact, there are few informational searches you can
do on Google these days that Wikipedia DOESN'T rank
well for.

As one example, take "internet marketing", for which
Wikipedia ranks #1 in Google. There are a few related pages
around the subject (about 426 as of now), but Google has
3,220,000 pages indexed for Wikipedia — of which the vast
majority have nothing to do with internet marketing.

How is this possible if everything on the site has to be
theme-related in order to rank well for the keywords?

Simple: the notion that all content on a site must be of
the same theme is a myth.

But Wikipedia is seen as a kind of deity among websites.
Are there any "lesser" examples? Yes. Here are a few
of them:

Site: www.bandddesigns.com/energy/
Keywords: energy drinks
Rank: #2 in Google

The "energy" subfolder of bandddesigns.com has a few
hundred pages devoted to energy drinks, for sure, but if
you do a site:bandddesigns.com command at Google, you'll
see that the site has 4,320 pages indexed on a very diverse
set of subject matter that has nothing to do with energy
drinks (or health in general).

Despite this, it ranks #2 in Google (just under Wikipedia,
which again, is not all about energy drinks or health).

So do you have to have 100% related content on a site?
The facts say no.

Well, then, how is this site ranking for "energy drinks"?
Check its backlinks (especially at Yahoo) and you'll see
that the site has a lot of backlinks. That's what's
getting it the ranking — not how "on theme" it is.

Even now, with all of Google's "smarts", it's all about
the links.

Site: www.ssa.gov/OACT/babynames/
Keywords: baby names
Rank: #3 in Google

Do you find it hard to believe that a government site
ranks #3 in Google for such a competitive term like
"baby names"? It sure does, though, despite the fact that
Google says that only 33 pages of the 24,900 page site
are related to the topic "baby names".

Can sites rank well even with diverse themes existing on
the same domain? The facts say yes. How do you do it?
You need links.

Site: creativebits.org/cool_business_card_designs
Keywords: business cards
Rank: #8 in Google

According to Google, creativebits.org has 3,460 pages
related to "business cards". That's about 20% of its
16,300 indexed pages. So, is this site about business?
Or maybe finance or investment or small businesses or
something that's related to "business cards" in some way?
Nope.

What is the main site about? The site's title tag says
of itself:

"creativebits | Apple oriented design community"

It's a blog about Mac-based graphics design software. So
how does a site about Mac-oriented graphics software rank
for the phrase "business cards"?

Links, of course! Take a look at the backlinks in Yahoo
and you'll see it has thousands of them. And, incidentally,
if you do take a look at those backlinks — they come from
pages having nothing to do with business cards (or business
in general).

So if a page of content devoted to a highly competitive
phrase on a site whose theme is completely unrelated to
the phrase itself ranks for that very competitive phrase,
can it really be said that Google requires a site to be
all about one theme?

Nope.

One thing that does seem to hold true, though, is that if
you're going to have diverse themes on your site, you need
to separate them into their own subdomains or subfolders.
That seems to help Google know that the "theme" of that
folder or subdomain is different, and to treat it
independently.

Myths are Dangerous
===================

All of these myths are dangerous, because they get people
focusing on techniques and methods that simply aren't
really effective.

That said, is it a bad thing to make sure that all of your
links come from sites with similar themes? Or is it a bad
thing to make sure the content on your site stays on theme?

No, it's not bad. Going forward, Google may in fact take
those things into account more.

But don't be surprised when you are out-ranked by sites
whose content is not devoted to the theme, and whose links
come from all over the map!

I've found that most of these kinds of SEO myths are
propagated by people who are failing in their optimization
attempts. They make blanket statements, backed up by vapor,
out of frustration for their own failed attempts.

"Google must require themed-backlinks because my sites isn't
ranking well and I have a lot of links!" That kind of logic
is faulty.

It makes much more sense to listen to the facts, facts like
the ones I've presented here. Which sites are actually
ranking well now, and what are they doing to achieve those
rankings? Focus on what's working, not on the myths spread
by people who can't seem to make it work.

So what's working? Getting a lot of one-way links pointed
at your site containing your keywords. That's the short of
it. There are some other things to keep in mind, like making
sure the links grow slowly over time and don't all just
suddenly appear on hundreds of sites, and making sure that
you vary your link text so that it looks "natural".

But the bottom line is, at least for the present, you need
a lot of links.
