			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>To make money online many people jump right in before they are properly prepared. You know that to be a rocket scientist, a doctor, a brick layer, a construction worker, an office worker, a teacher, there are prerequisites, things you must learn, before you can be successful, you don&#8217;t just jump right in unprepared.</p>
<p>The same applies to the Internet marketing industry even though there are unsavory people out there who&#8217;d have you believe it&#8217;s a &#8220;Walk in the Park&#8221; and requires no more than the belief that you can just do it.</p>
<p>And I&#8217;ll have to admit, it is a walk in the park compared to what you have to put up with in the working world punching a clock being a subordinate to someone who does not have your interests in mind, but there are still rules you have to follow and pitfalls you must avoid to actually make Internet marketing work for you.</p>
<p>Most people will not make a dime online and yet there are others who will make more in one month than most people make in a whole year. Why is that?</p>
<p>My answer begins with the age-old chicken or egg question, &#8220;What comes first the chicken or the egg&#8221;? Personally I vote for, well never mind, each argument you or I make comes back to the same old conclusion &#8211; I have no clue and I don&#8217;t think many of us do either.</p>
<p>But one thing I do have a clue about and know for sure is that to make money online you must first have Passion for the company, products and/or service of any Internet business from which you expect to make money.</p>
<p>Personally, I love programming and working on the computer&#8230; I started 26 years ago at age 12.  Do do something that long you have to love it. <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />   And that&#8217;s why I started out my online business by selling software products I created until I moved on to create software that runs in membership sites.</p>
<p>Passion in this sense simply means that you&#8217;ve researched and like the company and products or services. It is then that you translate that like (or Passion) into the education, excitement and work that usually accompany Passion.</p>
<p>I will have to say that many online entrepreneurs are so good at what they do that they ignore passion because they can sell anything. But I&#8217;m concerned about those of you who are not so knowledgeable at working an online business successfully.</p>
<p>Now, I&#8217;m not trying to make anyone believe that Passion is the only thing necessary. Because to be successful you must also have a good website, good marketing, widespread advertising, company support, effective keywords, and etc. Those things are often learned from the company you join &#8211; but sidestep Passion and you reduce your chances for success dramatically.</p>
<p>It therefore follows that, if you have no Passion for the company and the products and services provided by that company, again, you won&#8217;t attempt to do the work you are being taught.</p>
<p>Internet marketing work is typically not all that difficult or time consuming but it does take motivation caused by Passion to get you off and running with a sustained effort so that you won&#8217;t stumble.</p>
<p>You have a great resource in the Internet search engines to search about the Internet Marketing industry for business opportunities, USE IT!</p>
<p>Your research should uncover a company that you like and have confidence in. It should be solid, founded on great principles, and easy to understand with great products and services that are sell-able for which you can have Passion. If you don&#8217;t find it move on, you can find the right opportunity containing the attributes identified above.</p>
<p>Comments like, well, that one sounds good and the compensation plan is excellent so I guess I&#8217;ll start that business &#8211; does not sound like a decision based on anything near Passion. And remember when you hear that an Internet &#8220;guru&#8221; does that, don&#8217;t be tempted, because as I said earlier they are experienced and can sell just about anything, without being Passionate about the company products and services.</p>
<p>Note: By the way it&#8217;s your goal to get to the point where you can sell about anything online. That end skill and goal is a worthy one indeed.</p>
<p>Remember, there are other steps you must make before you step into Internet Marketing but if you don&#8217;t first find the right company products and services to be passionate about, all of those other steps may just cause you a lot of frustration instead of bringing you great success.</p>
<p>Not being Passionate about a company and products and services that has market proof that it will sell is a pitfall you simply must avoid.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Amazon does it, eBay does it, so why can’t you? </p>
<p>After all, up-selling is a technique employed by leading e-commerce sites to boost their sales and though you may be some light years away from them, this could be used by you effectively too. And though this is a technique, there is not a lot different from up-selling and selling by themselves!</p>
<p>There are many ways you could up-sell a product, but before we get into knowing the easiest method, know that an up-sell is a product you wish to sell immediately after he has bought the first one. Needless to say, the second product or the product to be up-sold has to be related to the first product bought by the customer.</p>
<p>To the point – The easiest method to up-sell is to work on the &#8216;checkout&#8217; page!</p>
<p>What you can do with the Checkout Page?</p>
<p>I’m not asking you to redesign the entire webpage. Follow this process to uncover the easiest method to up-sell.</p>
<p>First, identify your webpage which you want to include the upsell. It could be your product page, salesletter page, your newsletter subscription page, your thank you page and so on.</p>
<p>Then just add an option for them to include MORE products before they &#8216;checkout&#8217;.</p>
<p>So if it’s a newsletter subscription page, ask them if they want to include a free trial offer to your other paid product before they click &#8220;Register&#8221; on your newsletter page.</p>
<p>If your page is a salesletter webpage, give them an option to include another of your product before they click the &#8220;Order Now&#8221; button.</p>
<p>Here’s another example – if your webpage is a shopping cart, you can always &#8216;upsell&#8217; your prospects for them to add more quantity of the product that they&#8217;re buying.</p>
<p>The list goes on.</p>
<p>Here are some things you would like to watch out for while up-selling:</p>
<p>- The product you up-sell needs to be somewhat related to the product the customer bought. The closer the correlation, the better it is for you because you&#8217;ll get more sales. </p>
<p>- Write your up-selling ad as carefully and diligently as you would have designed your sales ad. Just the fact that the customer bought one product from you doesn’t mean he is sure to buy another!</p>
<p>- Up-sell but don’t push – Pushing is bad for any form of selling and the same applies in up-selling too. Inform the customer about your product and leave the choice to him. Also, bear in mind that you&#8217;re adding more value to your customer by offering greater solutions to them in your upsell products.</p>
<p>The method to up-sell your product is not as tough as you would have thought it to be. Basically, if you’re not integrating any upsell in your sales funnel, you’re literally losing money.</p>
<p>It&#8217;ll cost you more time, effort and money to acquire a new customer compare to selling to an existing customer who already trust you and like your product. </p>
<p>Although the technicalities surrounding the deal make it a slightly tough nut to crack, but I can tell you that it&#8217;s worth your time to explore this powerful marketing strategy.</p>
<p>Patric Chan&#8217;s 1ClickUpgrade System is a free software that can be integrated into your existing website and allow you to create upsells within minutes! <a href="http://vur.me/s/1ClickUpgrade" target="_blank">Click here to get it now for free and for a limited time, you’ll also get an audio course with it!</a></p>
<p>I just tried it out myself and really like it because it makes it so much easier to add an upsell.  The first page I tried it on is at <a href="http://Add2it.com/ref" target="_blank">http://Add2it.com/ref</a>.</p>
<p>Quick tip&#8230; make sure you don&#8217;t use any single quotation marks (&#8216;) in the system as it doesn&#8217;t work properly with them.  Simply use ` or &#8221; instead and it works smoothly.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I can&#8217;t believe it&#8217;s just 1 1/2 years ago that I started my journey from a &#8220;one-man band&#8221; to freedom.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Still remember how I send the first issue of my email newsletter on July 1st 1996, how I registered <a href="http://Add2it.com" target="_blank">Add2it.com</a> in March 2000, how I worked the last day in a full-time job as a hardware &#038; software computer support guy on November 30th 2001, how I registered my business as a sole trader on April 1st 2002, how I moved with my family to Australia in January 2005, how I met the first time Aurelius Tjin (more on him later) in person in March 2006 after an offline seminar and how I registered on October 1st 2008 <a href="http://Add2it.com" target="_blank">Add2it.com</a> Marketing Pty Ltd.</p>
<p>Wow&#8230; covered 12 years in one paragraph.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>A little before that, on October 26th 2007, my business partner Colin Klinkert and I launched our very first joint project&#8230; <a href="http://ViralURL.com/recommends" target="_blank">ViralURL.com</a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" style="border: 0px none ;" title="Colin Klinkert" src="http://img.skitch.com/20090911-ke3wwaf28bc5dg77x9y2b8rn6w.jpg" alt="Colin Klinkert" width="300" border="0" height="194"></p>
<p>The site grew awesome&#8230; we even reach an Alexa rank of around 5,000 at one point and have now, less then 2 years later still a traffic rank of 10,682 (at the time of writing this).</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><SCRIPT type='text/javascript' language='JavaScript' src='http://xslt.alexa.com/site_stats/js/s/c?url=ViralURL.com'></SCRIPT></p>
<p>The advantage of partnering up with Colin was of course that we could both compliment our strength &#038; weaknesses and share the work load and time needed to setup a mammoth project like <a href="http://ViralURL.com/recommends" target="_blank">ViralURL.com</a>.</p>
<p>But still, with a successful site like that&#8230; the amount of &#8220;daily grind-work&#8221; grew more and more, to the point where it seriously hindered the business growth.  There was no time left to improve the sites I had, launch new sites or spend a serious amount on marketing tasks.</p>
<p>On March 27th 2008 I finally hired my first full-time Virtual Assistant, Marie&#8230; <img src="http://img.skitch.com/20090911-c6xnhbhye84b4y4snjd2r62ss9.jpg" alt="Marie" align="middle" /></p>
<p>It was actually Aurelius Tjin, a good friend and also fellow Internet Marketer, that helped me find Marie.  He had already one Virtual Assistant himself and pointed me in the right direction.</p>
<p>After a week of training Marie I could see my work load drop and I was able to work on business growth again.  Over the next few month I mainly concentrated on adding many additional cool features to our <a href="http://ViralURL.com/recommends" target="_blank">ViralURL.com</a> site and growing it&#8217;s membership base every single day.</p>
<p>Then on March 19th 2009 the next site was launched together with another business partner of mine, Sal Vannutini&#8230; <a href="http://RapidFireBlogTraffic.com/video/forfree" target="_blank">RapidFireBlogTraffic.com</a> and just a few days later, on April 1st 2009, Colin and I announced on our <a href="http://ViralURLs.com" target="_blank">ViralURLs.com</a> blog our next joint project&#8230; <a href="http://ViralFollowers.com" target="_blank">ViralFollowers.com</a></p>
<p>It was again time to get more help on board and so I hired end of April 2009 my second full-time Virtual Assistant, Julie&#8230; <img src="http://img.skitch.com/20090911-7w17pehjsd597824mu2cun4gm.jpg" alt="Julie" align="top" /></p>
<p>All the first level support was now taken care of most of the time with Marie &#038; Julie working an two shifts, covering together 6 days a week.  But second level support was still done by myself only and so was the daily dealing with the payment processors.</p>
<p>Colin &#038; I still had at that point many more project ideas in mind that just waited for the implementation.  Also I myself had many improvement ideas for my existing <a href="http://Add2it.com" target="_blank">Add2it.com</a> Marketing Pty Ltd business.</p>
<p>To be able to grow faster and move all these projects ahead faster, I hired middle of May 2009 my first full-time programmer, Michael&#8230; <img src="http://img.skitch.com/20090911-pane6eia431aw5b58c3f13b172.jpg" alt="Michael" align="top" /></p>
<p>This time I didn&#8217;t go the same way about finding him as I did with Marie &#038; Julie, but instead posted a job description at <a href="http://GetAFreelancer.com" target="_blank">GetAFreelancer.com</a>.  It wasn&#8217;t as smooth of a process then with Marie &#038; Julie, but in the end we worked everything out.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>On May 28th 2009 Colin and I launched our next site, a new tool for <a href="http://ViralURL.com/recommends" target="_blank">ViralURL.com</a> members, called <a href="http://ViralPlugin.com" target="_blank">ViralPlugin.com</a> and then, end of June 2009, Aurelius Tjin &#038; I launched after less then a weeks work, using each of our unique strengths &#038; overcoming our weaknesses, something to make the live of many other Internet Marketeers &#8220;one-man bands&#8221; a lot easier&#8230; <a href="http://add2it.TimeToOutsource.com" target="_blank">TimeToOutsource.com</a></p>
<p>And yes, those Virtual Assistants that are are provided through <a href="http://add2it.TimeToOutsource.com" target="_blank">TimeToOutsource.com</a> are in the same office as Marie, Julie &#038; Aurelius his own Virtual Assistant are.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>On August 21st 2009 Colin and I then pre-launched our latest and like <a href="http://ViralURL.com/recommends" target="_blank">ViralURL.com</a>, huge project&#8230; <a href="http://ViralHosts.com/forfree" target="_blank">ViralHosts.com</a></p>
<p>And finally&#8230; on September 1st 2009, the last step of the conversion process from the former &#8220;one-man band&#8221; was done&#8230; Aurelius Tjin became the C.O.O. (Chief of operations) for <a href="http://Add2it.com" target="_blank">Add2it.com</a> Marketing Pty Ltd.  But I better let Aurelius explain that on his <a href="http://aureliustjin.com/aurelius-tjin-new-position" target="_blank">Unstoppable Internet Marketing Blog</a> post.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" style="border: 0px none ;" title="Aurelius Tjin" src="http://aureliustjin.com/images/frankaurelius.jpg" alt="Aurelius Tjin" width="300" border="0" height="235"></p>
<p>I hope this step-by-step description of my journey from a &#8220;one-man band&#8221; to freedom motivates you to take similar action in your Internet Marketing life.  Please share in the comments below where you are on your own journey.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Even while I am on a 6 weeks vacation here in Europe&#8230; my online business is growing and I wanted to quickly share with you what I am doing so you can take advantage of it for yourself.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>So, what exactly am I doing&#8230; and how?</p>
<p>Here is a quick video which I made for you that shares the first &#8220;secret&#8221; to my online business strategy with you&#8230;</p>
<p align=center>
<div align=center><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/YZG61XBriMs&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/YZG61XBriMs&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object></div>
</p>
<p>The site I am referring to in this video is <a href="http://add2it.timetooutsource.com/" target="_blank">TimeToOutsource.com</a>, a joint project with Aurelius Tjin and it&#8217;s all about a system that allows you to continue to earn &#038; support your customers while you are traveling which I talked about earlier on my <a href="http://ethicalinternetmarketer.com/internet-marketing/time-to-outsource/" target="_blank">EthicalInternetMarketer.com</a> blog.</p>
<p>So, with the major part of the daily grind work taken care of, here is what I did next while relaxing here in northern Germany&#8230;</p>
<p>Simon Hodgkinson &#038; Jeremy Gislason&#8217;s just started selling the <a href="http://www.marketingmainevent4.com/rep/add2it.html" target="_blank">Marketing Main Event 4</a> and with it the lifetime membership access to five finished membership sites for $1,497.00.</p>
<p>Now, I know you might say, &#8220;Frank, mate&#8230; $1,497 is a LOT of money! I couldn&#8217;t justify that expense!&#8221; I understand why you might think that, but let me share with you why I believe that I would be stupid to let this opportunity pass me by&#8230;</p>
<p>As you might know, I am together with Colin Klinkert one of the co-founders of ViralURL, which is like the <a href="http://www.marketingmainevent4.com/rep/add2it.html" target="_blank">Marketing Main Event 4</a> product, a membership site.</p>
<p>ViralURL generated for Colin &#038; me in the 21 month since we launched the site US $1,564,143.40 in sales (as of last Tuesday).</p>
<p>When I saw it, I could see the potential right away&#8230; 5 membership sites with a free front end offer and upsells that go straight into your PayPal account are worth a lot!  Even if you simply outsource the creation of them to e.g. somebody at RentaCoder you would pay a lot more for 5 membership sites plus you would still be stuck with the support work which in this deal are done by Simon &#038; Jeremy&#8217;s team, I bought this right away for my company.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Now, I can guess what goes through your head now&#8230; &#8220;But Frank&#8230; you can simply promote this membership sites to your existing lists and make heaps of profits!&#8221; &#8230; and you are right, with an existing list, this is an absolute no brainer.</p>
<p>But I strongly believe that even without and just the determination to build your own business, it&#8217;s well worth it.  Let me explain&#8230;</p>
<p>The best way I found so far to build my own list is to offer something free of great value in exchange for a name and email address&#8230; and then later offer a product for sale. This is how I build my lists.</p>
<p>And with the <a href="http://www.marketingmainevent4.com/rep/add2it.html" target="_blank">Marketing Main Event 4</a> product you get five free products of great value you can give away that will help you build your own list and then they offer an immediate upsell which will help build your income and generate a profit.  And that is from my own experience the best way to build a list and income at the same time.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Let me show you the 5 free offers so you can see what I am referring to&#8230;</p>
<p align=center>
<div align=center><a href="http://www.trafficgenerationclub.com/go/id2/add2it/Silver.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://frankbauer.name/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/BONUS-TGC.gif" alt="Traffic Generation Club Bonus" title="Traffic Generation Club Bonus" width="400" height="300" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-390" /></a></div>
</p>
<p>BTW&#8230; this first product will also give you lot&#8217;s of help to find ways to generate traffic (and this way subscribers &#038; sales) to your own membership sites.</p>
<p>Here is one of my favorite ways to generate list signups &#038; sales for free&#8230; Submit your free front-end offer of your membership sites to free Giveaways and List building events! <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Here are the other free offers you will be able to use&#8230;</p>
<p align=center>
<div align=center><a href="http://www.affiliateprofitsclub.com/go/id2/add2it/Silver.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://frankbauer.name/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/BONUS-APC.gif" alt="Affiliate Profits Club Bonus" title="Affiliate Profits Club Bonus" width="400" height="300" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-390" /></a></div>
</p>
<p align=center>
<div align=center><a href="http://www.emarketersclub.com/go/id2/add2it/Silver.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://frankbauer.name/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/BONUS-EMC.gif" alt="eMarketers Club Bonus" title="eMarketers Club Bonus" width="400" height="300" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-390" /></a></div>
</p>
<p align=center>
<div align=center><a href="http://www.webprofitsclub.com/go/id2/add2it/Silver.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://frankbauer.name/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/BONUS-WPC.gif" alt="Web Profits Club Bonus" title="Web Profits Club Bonus" width="400" height="300" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-390" /></a></div>
</p>
<p align=center>
<div align=center><a href="http://www.successupgrade.com/go/id2/add2it/Silver.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://frankbauer.name/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/BONUS-SU.gif" alt="Success Upgrade Bonus" title="Success Upgrade Bonus" width="400" height="300" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-390" /></a></div>
</p>
<p>Can you see how easy it will be to give those free font-end membership access products away to build your list &#038; income?  And how quick you can get started since all he hard work has already been done?  It took me less then 15 minutes to have the above 5 sites up and running.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>From my ViralURL site I know that about 8.5% of those that take you up by a free offer will then actually buy an upsell&#8230; but let&#8217;s be conservative and say only 4% will on average buy the $27 upsell in any of these 5 sites.  With an average Giveaway promotion you can easily get a few hundred new members to your site in just a few sites.  Let&#8217;s say you get only 100 new members&#8230; at 4% that&#8217;s $108 in sales in a day or two.  Multiply that by 5 sites.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>So all in all&#8230; if you already have a list of your own, may that be subscribers, affiliates, customers or members that you build over time, then the <a href="http://www.marketingmainevent4.com/rep/add2it.html" target="_blank">Marketing Main Event 4</a> product is really too good to pass on.  And even if you are starting up, this will give you a great head start over everybody else.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I am sure by now you see the awesome potential that this holds, but you might still say to yourself, &#8220;I wish I could afford this! <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> &#8221; &#8230; if that&#8217;s you and you really can&#8217;t, check out what else I found (and purchased just a day ago)&#8230;</p>
<p>Ian Del Carmen&#8217;s just released a cool viral PHP software script that allows you to offer a membership as well, it&#8217;s called <a href="http://frankbauer.fsoft.hop.clickbank.net" target="_blank">Fireball Mail Enterprise</a> and the best is that it&#8217;s available for just $147.</p>
<p>The reason that I purchased it from Ian is simply that I see the potential in offering a free service / membership on the front end to build my list and then offer them an upsell later.</p>
<p>With this product you can offer a free email service similar to Gmail on the front and then offer e.g. this bonus on the backend&#8230;</p>
<p align=center>
<div align=center><a href="http://www.emarketersclub.com/go/id2/add2it/Silver.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://frankbauer.name/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/BONUS-EMC.gif" alt="eMarketers Club Bonus" title="eMarketers Club Bonus" width="400" height="300" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-390" /></a></div>
</p>
<p>The main difference between the <a href="http://www.marketingmainevent4.com/rep/add2it.html" target="_blank">Marketing Main Event 4</a> product and Ian&#8217;s <a href="http://frankbauer.fsoft.hop.clickbank.net" target="_blank">Fireball Mail Enterprise</a> is that <a href="http://frankbauer.fsoft.hop.clickbank.net" target="_blank">Fireball Mail Enterprise</a> requires you to have your own web hosting account and provide your own support where the <a href="http://www.marketingmainevent4.com/rep/add2it.html" target="_blank">Marketing Main Event 4</a> product is fully hosted and supported by Simon &#038; Jeremy.</p>
<p>I hope that by now you see the potential that a membership site will have for you and no matter if you get a hold of the <a href="http://www.marketingmainevent4.com/rep/add2it.html" target="_blank">Marketing Main Event 4</a> product, <a href="http://frankbauer.fsoft.hop.clickbank.net" target="_blank">Fireball Mail Enterprise</a> or you come up with your own idea for a membership site &#038; build it (or get it build)&#8230; you know now what to do to quickly &#038; easily build your own list of customers &#038; income.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Please let me know in the comment section of this blog post how you will use or have used what you learned to build your own online business to that super success stage!  I am looking forward to read your success stories.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>&#8216;Whatever the mind can conceive and believe&#8230; it can achieve.&#8217;<br />

<p><b>P.S.</b> &#8211; I just LOVE the song in Ian&#8217;s <a href="http://frankbauer.fsoft.hop.clickbank.net" target="_blank">Fireball Mail Enterprise</a> video&#8230; can anybody tell me the song title / producer or where I can buy the MP3 for it?

<p> Are all your most important Internet Marketing questions answered by just the best experts in their field?  Chances are they are not&#8230; or not yet.</p>
<p>I created a quick video for you, please excuse my scruffy look&#8230; wanted to get it out to you asap.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<div align=center><script src="http://flash.revver.com/player/1.0/player.js?mediaId:1500851;affiliateId:92441;backColor:#000000;frontColor:#ffffff;gradColor:#000000;width:480;height:392;" type="text/javascript"></script></div>
<p><a href="http://FrankBauer.name/recommends/EasilyAnswered" target="_blank">This is the link that I am referring to in the video!</a></p>
<p>But before you go there, please remember that this is by private invitation only!</p>
<p>Some of the very biggest names on the Internet are involved and we aren&#8217;t opening the doors to the rest of the world until Feb 26th, so this is your special invitation head start!</p>
<p><a href="http://FrankBauer.name/recommends/EasilyAnswered" target="_blank">Click here to watch Tahir&#8217;s video!</a></p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve been a visitor of my blog for more than a few days then you already know how I like to try and help everyone that I can, but sometimes I just don&#8217;t know the right answers for a question, and I find that very frustrating!</p>
<p>Well it turns out I&#8217;m not the only one, and I&#8217;ve managed to hook up with a few other successful online marketers to put together a REAL solution to the problem&#8230;</p>
<p>A way of making sure that whatever your question is, whatever you are stuck on, whatever is holding you back&#8230;</p>
<p>Now you can get the RIGHT answer, from the BEST expert on the subject, just when you NEED it!</p>
<p><a href="http://FrankBauer.name/recommends/EasilyAnswered" target="_blank">Right at EasilyAnswered DOT com!</a></p>
<p>I want you to go and watch a video, it&#8217;s a little bit long, but I promise you it is well worth watching all the way to the end!</p>
<p>You see it actually shows you a secret, a very important secret that once you understand it and can put it in action, you will be able to overcome any obstacle and achieve the success you desire.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not kidding, this is a biggie!</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve used this secret over and over again to make my business a success and profitable, although I hadn&#8217;t realized that I was using this secret until recently, when I had it explained to me by the friend who has made this video for you, Tahir!</p>
<p>You can <a href="http://FrankBauer.name/recommends/EasilyAnswered" target="_blank">watch the video at EasilyAnswered DOT com</a>.</p>
<p>I was very lucky to be doing it the right, and even then not all the while, most people have no chance of doing it the right way without help, in fact most people are effectively forced to do it entirely the wrong way, without ever realizing it&#8230;</p>
<p>So what is this secret&#8230;?</p>
<p>Go watch the video and you will see, it&#8217;s not something that&#8217;s difficult to get your head around, in fact for most people the moment they see it, they &#8220;get it&#8221; straight away, in fact the usual reaction is &#8211; </p>
<p>&#8220;OMG, why didn&#8217;t I realize that before, and how can I do that all the while!?!&#8221; </p>
<p>That&#8217;s what this video will do for you, it will give you the clarity and understanding, that &#8220;Ah Ha!!&#8221; moment&#8230;</p>
<p>AND it will show you how you can actually put this new understanding of this secret in to ACTION TODAY!</p>
<p>Again, just <a href="http://FrankBauer.name/recommends/EasilyAnswered" target="_blank">watch that video from Tahir</a> to see it for yourself.</p>
<p>You are also getting the first chance to get in on this, as I&#8217;m involved with this project I can give you that head start, but you need to be quick, this is a very limited opportunity that I&#8217;m giving you a head start on, because I want you to be able to &#8220;GET&#8221; this&#8230;</p>
<p>You need to watch the video all the way to the end to see what I mean by that, and I&#8217;m serious that it is VERY limited, we&#8217;re not letting the rest of the world see this until 26th Feb, so you really are getting the 1st chance at this, so please grab it now!</p>
<p>&#8216;Whatever the mind can conceive and believe&#8230; it can achieve.&#8217;<br />

<p><span style="color: #993300; font-size: small;">What Are Web Crawlers?</span><br />
<img style="middle;" src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/67/207409056_4b4af03a46.jpg?v=0" alt="" width="256" height="64" /></p>
<p align="left">Well, according to <span class="misspell">Wikipedia</span>, their definition is:</p>
<p align="left">&#8220;A <strong>web crawler</strong> (also known as a <strong>web spider</strong> or <strong>web robot</strong> or &#8211; especially in the <a id="mcxb3" title="FOAF (software)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FOAF_%28software%29" target="_blank"><span class="misspell">FOAF</span></a> community &#8211; <strong>web <span class="misspell">scutter</span></strong>) is a program or automated script which browses the <a id="mcxb5" title="World Wide Web" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Wide_Web" target="_blank">World Wide Web</a> in a methodical, automated manner. Other less frequently used names for web crawlers are <strong>ants</strong>, <strong>automatic indexers</strong>, <strong>bots</strong>, and <strong>worms</strong>.&#8221;</p>
<p align="left">This is a process that is also known as <strong><span class="misspell">spidering</span>. </strong>This process is used by the search engines in order to provide the most up-to-date information.  This information is then used to make the searches for you and me much faster.  For instance, you have a website about how to finish a basement, you got the information, therefore, you want the engines to know about your site&#8230; so when someone searches this topic, voila,  your site comes up in their search.</p>
<p><span class="misspell">Web crawlers</span> are also used for maintenance purposes, such as link validation and checking HTML codes. Another use is for gathering specific information from the Web, such as email address harvesting which is mainly used for spamming purposes.</p>
<p><span style="color: #993300; font-size: small;">Why Do You Want Web Crawlers Coming To Your Site? </span><br />
<img style="middle;" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2378/2510945490_71d9f39829_m.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="198" /></p>
<p>You want these web crawlers coming to your site to improve your rankings.  When Google and <span class="misspell">MSN</span> use Web crawlers, they are actually analyzing an unlimited amount of Web sites, finding which ones are relevant for the most popular keywords.  When you are using a good <span class="misspell">SEO</span>, you will be showing these Web crawlers that your Website is one to be seen.  It will determine whether your site is unique enough to provide information and data for a specific search.</p>
<p><span style="color: #993300; font-size: small;">Do All Web Crawlers Work the Same Way?</span></p>
<p>As you can see, even spiders make their style of web&#8230; as do the search engines&#8230;</p>
<p><img style="middle;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3149/2508942697_6c08339a46_m.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="160" /></p>
<p>No, Google, Yahoo,  <span class="misspell">MSN</span>, all have their own methods and formula for ranking, and they do not share their formulas with anyone, a highly guarded secret.  But I can tell you that they will look at several factors concerning each Web site, checking its importance and overall relevance to a particular topic.  They will take the keyword or keywords you are using, and use this to determine whether your page is relevant or not.</p>
<p>You do not need to worry so much about how heavy your keyword saturation is&#8230; if you put it in too many times, then they will pick up on that and it will hurt you in the long run.  You need to put your keywords in as it pertains to your article and Web site, write for your readers, not for the Web crawlers and search engines.</p>
<p><span style="color: #993300; font-size: small;">Back-linking and Why It Is Important</span></p>
<p>Web crawlers will take a look at how many links there are coming to your site (its popularity), what kind of sites are linked, their quality and popularity, and so forth.  Getting back-links to your site builds up your relevance in the eyes of the search engines as you can see in the illustration below.</p>
<p><img style="middle;" src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/130/379858252_e4f9f8dbde.jpg?v=0" alt="" width="500" height="251" /></p>
<p><span style="color: #993300; font-size: small;">How Do You Get These All Important Links?</span></p>
<p>Ask for them!  The most popular method of the &#8220;experts&#8221; is to just ask your readers for links.  If you go to a blog and leave a link or comment, just ask them to do the same for you&#8230; and guess what&#8230; they will!  If there is something to gain for a blogger to link to your blog, then you can bet that he or she will do it.  First, get to know them, write a blog about them, become a friend with them, then once that relationship is built, you have a friend who will provide you some great back-links.</p>
<p>&#8216;Whatever the mind can conceive and believe&#8230; it can achieve.&#8217;<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yes, that&#8217;s right the US $2,086.95 that I just spend a few minutes ago can benefit you in more then one way&#8230; and even without you investing a single cent, unless you want to.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>First, let me show you what I invested in&#8230;</p>
<p align="center"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg275/add2it/PayPalReceipt.gif" title="My PayPal Receipt" alt="My PayPal Receipt" border="1" height="353" width="520" /><br />
<font size="1">My PayPal receipt over $2,086.95 for Armand Morin&#8217;s Internet Marketing Explained</font></p>
<p>Unless you have been living under a rock the last couple of weeks, I am pretty sure you heard about this product that I just purchased myself.  That&#8217;s right&#8230; it&#8217;s Armand Morin&#8217;s Internet Marketing Explained home study course.</p>
<p>I was lucky to have meet Armand twice last year.  First I met him last May in Singapore where he was one of the featured speakers of the World Internet Mega Summit&#8230;</p>
<p align="center"> <img src="http://frankbauer.name/images/wis/ArmandMorin.jpg" title="Armand Morin" alt="Armand Morin" border="0" height="389" width="520" /><br />
<font size="1">With Armand Morin at the World Internet Mega Summit in Singapore, May 2007</font></p>
<p>There where over 3,000 attendees at the seminar in Singapore, but I was lucky and did speak with Armand quiet some time on his presentation techniques. That time was worth a lot to me.</p>
<p>Then, last October, I met him again at the Silent Killer 2 seminar in Sydney Australia&#8230;</p>
<p align="center"> <img src="http://frankbauer.name/images/photos/ArmandMorin.jpg" title="Armand Morin" alt="Armand Morin" border="0" height="398" width="520" /><br />
<font size="1">With Armand Morin at the Silent Killer 2 seminar in Sydney, October 2007</font></p>
<p>BTW&#8230; don&#8217;t let the pictures mislead you into believing that Armand and I are buddies&#8230; I wish!  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />   No, I was a seminar attendee at both events where he was speaking and did simply ask him if he would mind our photo to be taken after chatting with him.</p>
<p>What does all this have to do with Internet Marketing Explained, the reason why I purchased it and how that benefits you?  Glad you ask.</p>
<p>Let show you what it includes right now and explain then in more detail&#8230;</p>
<p align="center"> <a href="http://generatorsoftware.com/pro/go.php?425379/74/498" title="Internet Marketing Explained" target="_blank"><img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg275/add2it/InternetMarketingExplained-2.jpg" title="Internet Marketing Explained" alt="Internet Marketing Explained" border="0" height="600" width="602" /></a><br />
<font size="1">Screenshot of what&#8217;s included in Internet Marketing Explained</font></p>
<p>Let me go through the above points an tell you one by one my thoughts on them&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>1. The Home Study Course itself</strong></p>
<p>The home study course itself will fore sure have some golden nuggets in it for me and I am looking forward to go through it and find those nuggets.  Just implementing them in my existing business will be worth more then what I paid for the course over the term of 2008  alone.</p>
<p>But I have to admit that the course alone didn&#8217;t get me to make the purchase now. Don&#8217;t get me wrong, but I believe the course in itself will be worth much more to somebody that doesn&#8217;t already have an existing online business like I do. Just one of my sites that I partner on with Colin Klinkert made us so far over US $140,000 in sales&#8230; and we launched it just 3 month ago.  In case you are wondering, I am referring to <a href="http://viralurl.com/presents" title="Viral URL" target="_blank">ViralURL.com</a> and that&#8217;s one of your ways you will benefit, but more on that later one.</p>
<p>So, why is it more worth to somebody that doesn&#8217;t already have an existing online business?  Simple, besides the golden nuggets in it&#8230; it also contains all the basics that I personally don&#8217;t need anymore.  But this basics are what will be of huge value to those that want to cut down their learning curve immensely.  You might not know this&#8230; but I started online in 1996, the same year Armand Morin did.  But went to tons of trial and error and just found the right way for me in 2000.  Then it took me another 2 years to go from a part-time to a full-time online business owner.</p>
<p>Imagine you could cut down the 4-6 years that it took me to 4-6 month or less?</p>
<p><strong>2. The live IME seminar</strong></p>
<p>As I mentioned before, I have seen Armand speak twice before&#8230; and both times I learned something new.  So any of his seminars that I can attend, I am happy to do so.</p>
<p>But again, this was not a main reason for me to purchase now&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>3. The 8 weeks of training videos</strong></p>
<p>What&#8217;s so cool about this is that it will answer any open question of anybody that owns the course and this way fill in any possible gaps.  Not that I believe that there are many gaps as the course it already 34 CD&#8217;s and over 900 pages in size, but in my view it will round it off and make it even better.</p>
<p><strong>4. The Generator software products</strong></p>
<p>I actually owned some of them before and know they are good.  A nice bonus&#8230; but of course again not the main reason I purchased.</p>
<p><strong>5. <s>The resell rights to the IME videos</s></strong> No longer available, but I added an additional bonus to compensate!</p>
<p>Now, here we are getting closer to the reasons I purchased.  Those videos where great content videos that could be easily sold on their own&#8230; or, as I plan to&#8230; be used as fantastic bonuses to existing products.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><strong>6. <s>The PersuationX Live teleseminar</s></strong>  No longer available, but I added an additional bonus to compensate!</p>
<p>Wow&#8230; I honestly can&#8217;t wait for that one!  As I mentioned before, I talked with Armand in Singapore about his presentation techniques that earned him over $4,000,000 so far.</p>
<p>If you ever met me in person, you might know that I love to talk with people one on one.  But then again, speaking in front of hundreds of people one stage is a complete different pair of shoes.  That&#8217;s something I had been afraid of for a long time.</p>
<p>Last September, when I attended the World Internet Main Event in San Francisco, I had the opportunity to be on stage for over an hour&#8230; well, I have to admit that I was hypnotized.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Anyway&#8230; I believe that the experience helped me to some degree to get over my stage fright  and I can now imagine to give at some point in the near future presentations myself on stage which is according to John Childers &#8220;The Teachers Teacher&#8221; the highest paid profession  in the world.</p>
<p>And knowing that Armand outsold even John Childers as well as Jay Abraham on stage is for me a very strong indicator that I just have to listen to Armand&#8217;s teleseminar on this topic.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><strong>7. <s>The BigSeminar ticket rebate</s></strong>  No longer available, but I added an additional bonus to compensate!</p>
<p>Another  main reason for me&#8230; I attended in 2007 a total of 7 seminars, mostly in Australia and as I mentioned one each in Singapore and San Francisco. Why so many you might ask?  Simple&#8230; besides learning a ton, I made each time invaluable contacts with other attendees and speakers.  In Melbourne and Singapore I met e.g. Mark Joyner, even went out with him and Patrick Chan to dinner one night.  Those opportunities we don&#8217;t get in front of our keyboard, but only in the real world.</p>
<p>Now, the BigSeminar is simply the cream de la cream of offline seminars.  But so far I haven&#8217;t been able to attended this seminar which is one that&#8217;s one the higher end of the scale in regards to the price to attend.</p>
<p>This 50% off offer just comes right for me and who knows&#8230; maybe we can meet at the next BigSeminar in Atlanta, Georgia.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><strong>8. <s>The resell right to 180 hours of BigSeminar recordings</s></strong>  No longer available, but I added an additional bonus to compensate!</p>
<p>Same as with bonus #5&#8230; this recordings can be easily sold on their own or be used as fantastic bonuses to existing products.</p>
<p>Now you know why I just purchase the Internet Marketing Explained home study course.</p>
<p align="center"><strong><font size="4">By now I am sure your are wondering&#8230;<br />
how will all this benefits you?</font></strong></p>
<p>Like I said, you probably have heard about this course by half the Internet Marketing world by now&#8230; and just now from me.  Why am I so late?  Simple&#8230;</p>
<p>Personally I don&#8217;t like to recommend anything I haven&#8217;t tried myself first.  Now&#8230; obviously, besides some of the Generator software products, I haven&#8217;t tried this yet.  But I purchased it myself and feel very strong about my decision to do so!</p>
<p>Since this 8 week video training starts already this coming week and the 3 day IME live seminar part was limited to the first 500 customers only, Armand will stop offering all 8 parts of his bonus at midnight on Monday (Pacific Time). So if you like what you saw so far, I recommend you do what I did and take advantage of this as well before then.</p>
<p>But even if you don&#8217;t take advantage of Armand offer as well as my bonus offer that I will explain to you below&#8230; you will benefit from the package simply by continue to read my blog right here as I will share here from time to time the technique&#8217;s and strategies and learned and tested.  <img src='http://frankbauer.name/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Now, here is the bonus offer I have for you&#8230; but before you check them out, I want to let you know one important thing.  If purchasing Internet Marketing Explained through my link below turns you off&#8230; please use this direct link instead:  <a href="http://www.InternetMarketingExplained.com" title="http://www.InternetMarketingExplained.com" target="_blank">www.InternetMarketingExplained.com</a></p>
<p>Why am I giving you the direct link?  Simply because I think that I would give you a bad service by not taking advantage of Armand&#8217;s offer simply because you don&#8217;t want me to earn an affiliate commission.  In that case I would prefer not to earn it and you taking advantage of Armand&#8217;s great offer at the same price at  <a href="http://www.InternetMarketingExplained.com" title="http://www.InternetMarketingExplained.com" target="_blank">www.InternetMarketingExplained.com</a></p>
