Internet Wealth Builder

Welcome to another post of Internet Wealth Builder!

I just came back from Brisbane from a great weekend of internet marketing coaching with my mentor Sean Rasmussen, and I had such a buzz coming out of it. Though I’m always excited to learn new things and take on new challenges, the session I had on the weekend was more than just internet marketing. It was a combination of networking with a bunch of top internet marketers in Australia, as well as learning about how we can take our practices to the next level. But there was more offered to us at the coaching session. You see, my mentor Sean is a great friend of a very inspirational, ex-Hollywood actor who happens to be his mentor. Sean invited him to come along to our session, and tell us about how we can take our internet marketing to a higher level.

You may think that this guy has got something to do with a new internet marketing strategy. I’d have to tell you that it is more than that! In order for us to become the best internet marketers, we had to take a step outside of internet marketing and work on our mindset and our emotions to drive us to the next level up. We heard from one of the top peak performance coaches in the world, Kurek Ashley. Kurek has an amazing story to tell. He started out as a Hollywood actor who was doing well with his profession, working alongside the likes of Sylvester Stallone and Chuck Norris, until a tragedy happened and completely turned his life around. He went really low in his life, to the point that you would call absolute rock bottom, but he managed to pull himself back up, to become one of the top peak performance coaches in the world!

Kurek wrote a book titled How Would Love Respond which is a bestseller novel for self-improvement. I thoroughly enjoyed our session, where he taught us strategies that would bring wealth, abundance and success to any areas of our lives, and definitely how we can become successful internet marketers through improving our mindset and taking action. Reading his book is just awesome! It’s a very inspirational story that also teaches a lot about abundance, how you can become wealthy through your mind, the 3Ps of Power, and much more. I highly recommend picking up a copy of the book if you want to become successful, be it in internet marketing or other aspects of your life!

This is a slightly different post for Internet Wealth Builder, but something that I’d like to share to help you in your journey in internet marketing and in many aspects of your life. I hope you will find many successes with your internet marketing through inspirational people like Kurek Ashley.

Welcome to yet another exciting post for Internet Wealth Builder! This week, I will be focusing on blogging and how to go about it.

Blogging Your Passions

I mentioned in one of my previous post that there is a way for you to make money with blogging. This is making money without using relying on AdWords and advertising on your blogs. Blogs are a great way to generate traffic to your other sites, as long as you know how to do it. A great more detail is mentioned in the book “Year Of The Affiliate” by my mentor Sean Rasmussen.

The one big question that some newcomers to internet marketing have in their minds is, what do I blog about? I don’t know what to write about and to share to the rest of the world! All the more, what do I write about that would enable me to make money in the first place? First of all, when you start out in internet marketing, don’t worry about the money yet. The money will come once you have learned and established yourself. I learned this when I started out. I was chasing the money and trying to find what area is hot at the moment, even if I don’t have a single clue what it’s about. I realised that this was not the right approach, that I can never convince someone to buy something from me on an item that I don’t know about! Though making money is indeed the name of the game here, you need to set some basic things straight if you are to succeed in whatever you do.

First of all, you need to have a passion for something to be able for you to succeed. This goes with your blogs. Each and every one of us must have something that we are passionate about, be it music, cars, travel, our jobs, horses, or whatever you are interested in. There is no limit to what you can be passionate about, but just ensure that it is something tasteful and something that you think a lot of people in this world would be able to share with you. That way, you will be able to express yourself much better, and it will be much easier for you to talk about the subject and be very confident about it.

Building Trust Through Blogging

Blogging about a passion is also great in the sense that you are able to share to others what you know in the subject, and other people can learn from it. It is through this that people will find value, and this will eventually lead to a relationship-building process. If people find great value with what you are blogging, they are most likely going to follow your blog, and they will most likely be interested in the other things that you do. The other things may mean your other sites which would sell products (whether associated to your subject or not). These people who follow your blog would have a greater propensity to purchase from you because you would have built the trust with them, and hence they know that you are an honest person, someone that they can rely on.

This is one very important thing I learned from Sean’s book “Year Of The Affiliate“  when I first started out. Not only did my journey into the internet marketing world become so much more enjoyable, it brought out the best in me, which is my capacity to share to the world and inspire others with my thoughts and with my past experiences through my blog. I truly encourage you to seek out what it is that you’re passionate about in life and share it with the rest of the online world. That whole process will definitely lead you to building great relationships online, and will eventually lead to great sales and conversion rates.

I hope you enjoyed another great tip from Internet Wealth Builder!

To your many online successes!

Social bookmarking has become a recent phenomenon in the internet, and has started only in the last 4-5 years. Originally, people use it to keep track of their bookmarks on the browser and those articles they found useful on the internet. They then share it with a few friends who would then share it to their other friends. This is really the main purpose of social bookmarking. However, the good thing that comes out of this is that the more a site gets bookmarked by people, the more it appears in different user’s pages. Thus, when the search engines trawl through the net to produce its search results, it will then recognise that this certain site is becoming more relevant, and thus puts its rankings up the page! I discovered this information when I read Sean’s book, “Year of the Affiliate“.

What are Good Social Bookmarking Sites?

In the recent years, there has been an increase in the number of social bookmarking sites around. There used to be only Del.icio.us (now called Delicious.com), but now some of the popular ones are DIGG.com, Reddit.com, Mixx.com, Propeller.com, StumbleUpon.com and TaggZilla.com. Sphinn.com is also another one that is good for internet marketers.

How to Effectively Use Social Bookmarking Sites for SEO

The key to get into the social bookmarking sites is to make friends with as many people as you can. However, before you go on a rampage and start adding people as friends, be aware that there are users out there that don’t just take people in as friends until you prove to them that you are a genuine person who would bookmark sites for its great content, and not to just support their friends and perform SEO. Of course there are people who would be only after the SEO part, but chance are, they won’t gain the respect of some people on these social media sites.

In order for you to be successful at it, try following someone you want to be friends with, and it may well be those that are at the top of the social media users list. Check out what they are bookmarking and make comments on them and bookmark them on your page as well. This can eventually draw their attention to you and would result in them perhaps adding you as a friend or noticing you. When they add you in, and they bookmark your submissions, and as long as you’re keeping up the relationship, you will then reap the benefits of getting a good page ranking!

There are a fair bit more strategies mentioned in Sean Rasmussen’s “Year of the Affiliate” book, which are described in more detail. But to start off, I think this approach is a good way for you to gain a good ground in the social bookmarking scene. Just make sure that you keep the trust on the people you build the relationship with, and try not to be self-promotional.

I hope this has been a beneficial post for you from Internet Wealth Builder!

To your many online successes!

Welcome to another post on Internet Wealth Builder! This week, we’ll tackle on Search Engine Optimization (SEO).

Importance of SEO

Search Engine Optimization is the key to building a great internet business. Without SEO, no one will ever find your website in search engines like Google or Yahoo. Many people think that you have to be an IT genius to be able to achieve this or to know how to program and read algorithms, but that is not the case. There are many ways you can achieve this without having to know how to build a website from scratch. The important part here is keywords. You have to have the right keywords and expose them in the right places. Here are some of the things I’ve learned from my mentor Sean Rasmussen, author of the book “Year of the Affiliate“:

1. Make sure the URL of your website contains the keywords that you want to be ranked on. This can be in the form of the actual URL itself, or if you’re blogging, make sure your perma-links contains the keywords.
2. Title of your page – make sure the title of your page contains the keywords that you want to be ranked on.
3. Keyword density – this basically means that the number of keywords that you want to put into a post must appear a certain number of times on the page or post. This doesn’t mean writing the word in every sentence. This just means that you need to mention your keyword a few times, preferrably 3 to 5 percent of your total number of words.
4. Highlighting and Bolding – Bolding or Italics can make the keyword stand out, and thus, search engines are more likely to take notice of this and would rank your website higher.
5. Tagging – adding the relevant keywords to tags on your post will help in ranking. Make sure that the tags you use for the post is relevant
6. Have links to other relevant pages on the web, particularly those with authority (like universities, government sites. .org sites)
7. Make sure your content is relevant to the keywords that you are optimising for.
8. Update your website or blog more frequently. More recent content is what gets higher rankings, as old and unused/unvisited sites will not get the relevance in search engine terms, so blog as often as you can, and stick to the relevant topic you want to have an SEO on.
9. Age of the site also helps. This may not be something you can work on, but the older the site gets and the more frequently updated it is with its content, the higher it will rank in the Search Engines.

Very simple stuff, ey? These are some strategies that you could now deploy and use right at this minute to help you with Search Engine Optimization(SEO) and get the rankings (and eventually the traffic) into your blog or website! All of these are covered in further detail in Sean’s book, “Year of the Affiliate“. A lot of people have achieved the great results in internet marketing because of this book, and I highly recommend it myself!

Til then, another post from Internet Wealth Builder!

Blogging – a lot of people blog for the sake of sharing their experiences and their passions to the rest of the world. Many of them blog without any intention of reaping any monetary rewards from it. Some may put some Google AdSense advertising and banners on the side, but this is not the main importance of their blog.

A lot of people have not discovered how they can effectively monetise their blogs. In the book “Year of the Affiliate“, I learned that there is a way to make money out of your blog apart from Google AdSense and those already-known income-generating strategies. Sure, you have to blog on something that you’re passionate about (otherwise you’d run out of things to say!), however, through your blog, you can also convince your readers to purchase some products that you’re using in relation to your topic. As such, you can sign up as an affiliate to a website that sells a product that you love, and you can blog about it and tell the world your wonderful experience of the product.

Through this strategy, readers will become convinced of your experience, and if they already trust you as a person, they may just buy the product. There is a technique on how you should blog in order to reap the benefits of monetising your product, and this is mentioned in the Year of the Affiliate book by Sean Rasmussen.

Sean is a mentor of mine, and he has proven the results of his strategy with his own personal journey from being an electrician 4 years ago to a full-time internet marketer. Sean maintains several blogs, of which he puts out his passion blog called Mindset Mastery. Through this, Sean was able to build his reputation online and built his internet marketing business as time went on.

So, find out what you’re most passionate about, and start blogging, then find an affiliate scheme to join! I wish you all the success in building your internet wealth!

One of the things I’ve learned while reading the book “Year of the Affiliate” is the power of social media, and how this can help internet marketers make sales and create a relationship with customers online. For most people, social media may be used just for fun and for keeping in touch with friends and family online. For some internet marketers, social media is used to heavily promote their products online and do full-on selling regardless of whether they know the potential customer or not. There are so many ways you can use social media sites like Facebook, Twitter or YouTube to sell products online, however, not many have found the effective way to leverage this avenue.

What I’ve learned from the book “Year of the Affiliate” is that building rapport online with your potential customers is important. In order for you to do that, you must work on building your online “persona”, or an “image” of who you want to be known as in cyberspace. This can help in allowing people online to relate to you and know who you are, and by that, trust is formed and developed. People will then start to follow you with whatever you do. One of these people following you online may just find out that you are selling a product that he or she also likes, and since he or she likes you and trusts you, the person may just buy it! Of course, creating an online persona and maintaining it requires some tricks of the trade, and this is what the book tells you more on.

There is a lot more detail on the book “Year of the Affiliate” and I highly suggest you go and get a copy of it! It’s well worth the $97 I paid for, and I’m starting to see slowly the returns and sales from the people following me! It’s unbelievably great! I wish I had this book handy before I even started wasting my money on Google AdWords and ineffectively selling using that means.

Hi, my name is Kelvin Lim, and I’m an internet marketer. I’ve been trying to do a few strategies online in order to make money, but they have all cost me lots of money, and never produced any results. If they will, it will be a long time for them to come out, and by then, it would have cost me heaps of money! I went on and searched for days and months, looking for a cheaper, cost-effective and more importantly, effective strategy for internet marketing, and found this concept of affiliate marketing.

For those new to affiliate marketing, this is basically selling someone else’s product using affiliate links online, and once you make a sale through the affiliate site, you earn some commission! Using affiliate marketing doesn’t require you to pay any setup fees. You just find a product you wish to sell, sign up for their affiliate program (if they have one and offer one), and voila! You’re in the game!

As with anything, there is a catch. Not a lot of people have been successful with it. It’s because there is a certain strategy that needs to be put in place before you can convince people to buy the product that you’re selling. Viral marketing is one approach some use, BUT it’s definitely not effective! Your audience or potential customers could be annoyed and irritated by it (a lot of people are, to be honest), and then you won’t make a sale!

I’ve found a resource that is great for this. I saw this e-book online called “Year of the Affiliate” by Sean Rasmussen. I have been following Sean for some time now, and I have to say that this is a genuinely trustworthy guy, full of integrity, and he shows the result. He has struggled and made tons of mistakes before he was able to find the right formula to get internet marketing to work for him. I highly recommend his book, which you can find on this link: (Year of the Affiliate link).

Here’s one of the testimonials for his website:
