Happy Holiday’s

This has been a hectic week in our house… how about yours?

My wife and I went to pick up our oldest son from college for winter break on Tuesday.

He’s in Hartford, Conn so we decided to skip over to Boston for the day on Wednesday to do some Christmas shopping – it’s only an 1.5 hours from Hartford. Take RT 84 -> then to the Mass Pike.

The traffic was horrible (as usual) in Boston but we really got lucky finding parking spaces!

As soon as we got to an area we wanted to shop I was able to find a space right away. Usually I have to circle the block 3, 4 or more times before finding anything.

It’s good to have him home for a while :-)

Enough about me….

I want to wish you and yours all the best this Holiday Season…

I also want to give you a glimpse of what you can expect next week and in 2006. I know, I know… many of you won’t be anywhere near your computer next week ;-)

…But I have a few messages that you’ll want to look out for as soon as you get back.

First I’m announcing a new initiative to help you make real money online in 2006.

How’s that sound?

I’ve given you great info this year but, as you know, information is not enough. You need to take action.

The problem is ‘what’ action to take.

Well I’m going to solve that for you… I will literally hold your hand while you make money and you will not be able to ’stray’ from the focus nor will you be able to STOP making money… once you set this in motion, you will make money non-stop with almost no work at all.

It’s going to be done all for you – the only thing you need to do is tell me how much money you want to make.

Then, leave the rest to me.

If that doesn’t excite you, then check your pulse!

… more will be revealed soon.

Again, I want to wish you and yours all the best this Holiday Season…

How To Promote 50 Products From One Clickbank Account
By Robert Plank

Clickbank is a great third-party system for selling your
products, but it’s not perfect. The most noticeable problem
is that, even though you have the ability to offer up to 50
different products, you can only have one landing page.

This means that when an affiliate promotes your URL, you can
only take the user to the sales page of a particular
product. (Either that, or take them to a page with a link
to every single product — bad idea — too many choices for
the user to make.)

Luckily there is a PHP solution. Clickbank lets you add
extra stuff to the URL, which can be passed to a PHP script.
Then, this script can easy pass the user along to any page
you like.

A typical Clickbank hoplink looks like this:

http://hop.clickbank.net/?AffiliateID/SellerID

Where “AffiliateID” is the ID of a Clickbank affiliate and
“SellerID” is the ID of the seller whose product you are
promoting.

I’ve recently been in a situation where I was selling an
e-book, and wrote a second volume. I wanted to be able to
offer an affiliate program to the following types of
resellers:

1.) Those whose lists contained many people who already
purchased Volume 1 from them as an affiliate, and were
satisfied enough to buy Volume 2.

2.) Those who hadn’t bought either e-book before, and were
willing to pay the full price for both Volumes 1 and 2.

3.) Those whose lists contained “freebie seekers” who would
be more comfortable buying only Volume 1 for starters.

This meant I needed 3 sales pages, but I wasn’t comfortable
with wasting another $100 to setup two new Clickbank
accounts. I also didn’t want to have to login three
different times to check all my stats. (And cash three
separate checks, and so on.)

So, I gave affiliates a link like this:

http://hop.clickbank.net/?AffiliateID/SellerID&x=volume2

That extra part at the end said, set the query string
variable called “x” to “volume2.” That “volume2″ can be any
value you want,

117 Free (?) Christmas Gifts…

If you’re a member of my Private Newsletter then you’ve already seen this but as a Member of my Private Site I want to make sure you get this.

If you’re not on my Private Newsletter list (why not?), then you should know this is one of the best give-away programs I’ve ever been involved with.

Some people have asked me, “Is it really that good”?

Yes it is… but with some things, “free” is not always “free”.

In this case they really are ‘free’… but you’ll also get a few pitches to buy stuff. That’s the only ‘catch’, if you can call it that… but in my opinion it’s worth it to get the stuff they are giving away.

I’m talking about really good products… for free.

Stuff that sells for $27-$67 or more… for free.

By the way- I probably shouldn’t tell you exactly what’s on this site that you can download, but I will anyway. One of the products is a very nice software program called JVfiresaleAutomator that sells for $97, some (about 30) Private Label articles, a very cool ebay ’spy’ program (Hot Item Finder) and much more…

Anyway, this is a special deal that won’t last very long so if you want a deal that won’t cost you a cent, check this out,

Make sure you download all of them immediately, as Henry and Reed have told me that this site will disappear

UN-Limited Content From Alexa?

This is interesting if your a techie or you want a way to add un-limited free content to your website.

Yes, (almost) unlimited content.

Alexa.com is beta testing a new web search platform allowing you and me to access its huge library of web content. A brief exploration of the website showed that it had some content examples of its seach platform and instruction on how to access the data.

This could be a huge source of content for a single site or multiple sites. Registration is required but it doesn’t look like there’s any limitation to the amount of content you can access.

According to the website:

The Alexa Web Search Platform provides public access to the vast web crawl collected

Writing Blockbuster Sales Letters

I just found this and I think it deserves your attention.

Ben Hart, a copywriter, is giving away the digital copy of the book he wrote on “How To Write Blockbuster Sales Letters”… what’s interesting is that he covers a lot more than copywriting in this book.

The physical book sells for $38 but you can get the digital copy free. He doesn’t have a link to this on the main page of his site, and I can’t remember how I got to this page… I’d get this quickly before the page is removed ;-)
