Lets get cracking….

Day 1:

Search for a niche/keywords and find some good keywords that you can rank for, usually something that gets less then 30k competing pages when you search for it on google with “”.

After you found your niche, go check out clickbank,paydotcom & click2sell (I don’t why almost all guides choose only clickbank….) and find 3 products for your niche…find products that you can get at least ~18$ commission per sale and that have an appealing sales letter.

After you found your products you can: buy it and review it, ask for a review copy from the owner, search for other reviews and and write one in your own words.

Also try to put one product as your star product but don’t totally crash the others…try and keep them close.

Get a blogger blog and try to get a url that has one of your top keywords in it, make 1 welcome post and that is it for

day1.

How To Get Backlinks To Your Website

The best scenario is to get backlinks from different hosts, on different IP addresses, from different location, from different owners and yet each backlinks are themed to your targeted website.

How do I do it? Simple, I use Blog networks.

So what are blog networks? Simply put, Google’s Blogger and WordPress.com are good examples of the blog networks. Your URLs will typically be keyword.blogspot.com or keyword.wordpress.com

There are many blog networks but I want you to concentrate on building 5 blogs on 5 different networks so that you can get 5 quality and themed backlinks as a starter.

My 5 blog networks would include:
•    Blogger
•    WordPress
•    MSN Live
•    Yahoo 360
•    Typepad

Here’s what I will do for each of the network:

1) Create a blog using my primary keyword: keyword.blogspot.com

2) Change the website template, if possible. Usually, each network will have a defined set of templates. Change to something that look nice. Try to choose a template that allows you to display Blogroll. Don’t spend too much time on this.

3) Look at the plugins offered, if any. Depending on the blog networks, you should be able to activate plugins lik Askimet, All-in-one SEO and Social Bookmarker. Activate whichever you like.

4) Create content for the blog. What I would do is that I will create 5-10 different articles on the topic (ie. keyword) and post them. For WordPress & Blogger, I can schedule my posts. I entered 20+ posts and I scheduled them. Try as much as possible, have unique content for each post. Rewritten PLR is also good.

5) For the posts, I will also recommend websites to visit, which of course, is MY website. Typically, I will have 2-3 useful posts without links followed by a post with a link to my website.

6) I will also put up some links at the Blogroll and rename that as “Recommended”. These links will also go to my website. In addition, I will also recommend OTHER websites without affiliate links. This is to ensure that the blog looks natural and not promotional. Sometimes, I will also make posts and link to other websites without affiliate links. It’s normal and it’s natural in Google’s eyes

7) Lastly, promote all the 5 blogs. Use social bookmarking, submit to technorati, etc. Make sure that the blogs are indexed by Google.

8) After you are done, look for 5 more different blog networks and redo the above. There are a lot of them out there so look for them.

Tips And Tricks To Keyword Research

1    Write an article with a minimum of 300 words enumerating 10 tips relating to Product X. So if you chose a product dealing with flat abs, you could write an article like “10 Things You Should Do Every Evening To Get Flat Abs.”
Go to your Keyword Research Tool.  https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

Step No.1-Type in a general term that is related to your market. For example let’s use the weight loss market. So you could start with “fat loss”.

Look for key phrases with 3 or more words.
picture3

Step No.2-Copy all the key phrases with 3 or more words and save the to a notepad file.

picture4

Steps No.3-Once you have done that paste all the keywords you copied back into thesearch box. Uncheck the ‘use
synonyms’ box and then click ‘get ‘keyword ideas’.
picture5

Step No.4-Next you will select ‘exact’ to get a list of the exact search terms that people are searching for.

picture7

You will notice that the search numbers have decreased drastically. The reason for this is because we are getting more and more targeted to our audience and these terms are the exact phrases that potential customers are searching for.

Step No.5-In this step we are going to find out what the competitions for each of our keywords are like. So we are going to copy each of the key phrases one by one and search for them in quotation “” in Google. This will give us an idea of all the other websites that have optimized their websites for the selected keywords.

Note the number of websites returned.

Now you are going to create a database of all your keywords and the exact searches and the number of competing websites.

Step No.6-Open an excel document. Create 3 columns and label them keywords, exact searches and number of competing websites respectively. Repeat steps 5 and 6 above for about 30 keywords

Step No.7-Repeat step No.1 to step No.5 then record your result in the same excel document as in step No.6.
There are literally hundreds of keywords for every niche you can think of. Using my example of the weight loss niche here is a glimpse of what I came up with:

key

And this is just from the broad term “fat loss”. Just imagine the potential and you thought the weight loss niche was “too saturated”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Step No.8-This is the elimination step. We are going to get super targeted now. So go in your excel document and delete all the keywords that has more than 50,000 competing websites. Now you should have a list of some super targeted keywords that you can rank well in the search engines for. Cool eh

Step No.9-Select the keyword with the highest amount of searches for your main keyword. The trick will be to get your presell page (discuss later) to rank for your main keywords while getting your articles to rank for the other low competition keywords phrases. So in that way you are getting maximum traffic form all angles to your presell page which leads to your merchant’s page.
