Social Bookmarking Automated

I'm sure you have heard all the buzz about social bookmarking. Social bookmarking is one of the fastest ways to drive hordes of targeted traffic to your site.

With social bookmarking, I was able to increase my online income by 50%. All I did was place some tags on my webpages and bookmark them to social bookmarking sites.

But recently I met with a problem. I kept building so many webpages that I found it very time consuming to manually bookmark them. As a solution, I bought some social bookmarking automation softwares. Now, these worked very well, but there is one issue. They are too expensive! Some almost sucked me bone dry with their monthly fees.

As you can see, the ridiculous pricing of these softwares have made them beyond the reach of most people. Many are forced to do the painful job of bookmarking their sites manually.

After months of research, I finally found the software that I was looking for.

One that

- bookmark to 100+ social bookmarking sites
- supports adding unlimited scuttle, scuttleplus, pligg and phpdug bookmarking sites
- has no monthly fees
- free updates
- bookmarking randomization
- bookmarking camouflage.
- email verification
- scheduler to drip your bookmarks
- pinging feature
- random proxy servers
- multi-threading for faster bookmarking
- visual aid with decaptcher

I was so excited when I put this software to work! Interestingly, I quadrupled my income in a month. I also see a huge jump in my search engine's ranking. The amount of traffic coming to my site was amazing.

And the best part - it's not $297, or $197...not even...heck, I will let you just go to the page and see...

Review of Nanobloggers






I stumbled on a blog post about a new book called Nanobloggers.

Turns out to be a no no-nonsense approach to developing an online income by developing a niche markets using blogs. Not a novel concept in and of itself, however, it is a recipe type book, spelling out the steps needed to develop your niche and turn it into a money maker.

The concepts are appropiate for someone either new or interested in finally making money online. No hype but good solid teaching.

I've seen many comments on the book, almost all of them good!

Here's a few comments I stumbled on while searching online for more information about Nanobloggers:
This is a great book. I'm only on page 26 / 105 and i've found the ebook more interesting and useful than any other book ive read. The resources and links alone are worth the price of this ebook.
Hey, this is good stuff. Ignore the intro chapter and get into the meat of this.

Basically all about adding the personal touch to blogging to gain the trust of readers and use the power of blogs as natural SEO.

Funnily enough I've just spent the past week working on a couple of blogs mirrored by this method. Nice to add some more info to what I've already discovered, thanks.
I really like the product. It's a very simple and elegant system for blogging. The system requires some work but the philosophy behind is much more in tune with the core strengths of the Internet itself.

For some people like me the beauty of the system clearly shines through. But I can tell others are going to question certain aspects of the system because its different than what most of us are use to. There are no keyword tools used, no seo, and you have to be willing to interact within your niches community on a basic level.

It's also not a set it and forget it type system. You have to put in some work every day. At least 20-30 minutes per blog it seems.

If what I just wrote turns you off, honestly don't let it. Peter does a fantastic job explaining and supporting the "why" of the nanoblogging philosophy which makes a TON of sense. It's just different than what were use to from a Internet marketing course.

If your looking to pick it up Andre Chaperon offers a bonus interview with Peter. I'm considering putting together a bonus my self as I have taken some notes and put together a mind map but I'm not sure if I want to share them with others yet.
You can find more reviews and comments over at the warrior forum, here's the forum post for Nanobloggers.

Peter, the author of Nanobloggers has decided to donate his income from this book to help finance a Dog Shelter....a very admirable cause, here's a blurb from his salespage. For what it's worth, Peter seems to be stand up guy with a great product for anyone looking to do a little work and develop a real online business. He gets high praise from John Jonas....a pretty no-nonsense guy and seems to be a square shooter. In any case, it is a clickbank purchase so you're investment is guaranteed for 90 days......go for it!
It’s been two years since I have done this little Blogging to Sell coaching club. I haven’t released any new materials since then. I practice what I teach. Every day, I’m in the trenches, working hard – I’m not a guru. (and I have zero intention of becoming one)
Thing is tho – I have a lot to share.
I test like a maniac – there’s not much I haven’t done online where traffic and conversion strategies are concerned.
You can ask my friends – you know who they are…
Marketing is my passion – I can yap for hours on end about marketing. I’m an addict.
But …
There’s one thing that I’m even more passionate about. Dogs.
I’m a big dog friend and I co-operate my local dog shelter. A dog shelter is a massive money pit. (lots of costs but very little income)
Each month I donate about $5K of my own money to keep the shelter “alive”.
We need (lots of) dog food and pet medicine, there are veterinary bills we need to pay.
The list goes on and on – it never stops.
New puppies are droppped on our doorstep almost daily. We take good care of all of them.
We give them a good life.
I developed a complex marketing plan for the shelter – I know it will work.
I need the shelter to become self-funding.
Therefore – to fund this marketing plan, I decided to release a working business model to you guys.
I will put every single red penny I make from nanobloggers into the dog shelter – I will not pocket any of the money myself.
Nanobloggers works – it can change your life like it did for the people in my Golden Six” group.
I need you to succeed – you can do it, it’s not hard.
Here’s what you will be getting when you make the super smart decision to get nanobloggers today:

  • The nanobloggers manual (little over 100 pages)
  • The nanobloggers mindmap
  • A custom file to help you set up your nanobloggers.
  • In 2 weeks you’ll receive my blueprint for outsourcing (in co-op with John Jonas)
  • In 4 weeks you’ll receive a full case study of a working, real life nanobloggers project.
  • Access to a dedicated nanobloggers news blog (just for you, my “incrowd”), where I will be releasing updates to nanobloggers, marketing tips and tricks and insights on new workflows.
My Blogging to Sell group paid me $400/month – I’m not going to charge you this much. Price is under 100 dollars!

Using CPA to Monetize Your Website Building Efforts



CPA networks (Cost Per Action networks) pay commissions based on the action requested. So, if you are asking for an email adress, you will get paid for obtaining that. If you are asking for a mailing address, you will get paid when the customer gives this information. There are hundreds of CPA networks with similar offers and programs.


When you are starting out, you can join one just to get the hang of it and then gradually add more to your portfolio. To be able to join a CPA network, you need to apply first. This process can take a couple of days. You'll fill out an application and then someone from the network will call you and perform a telephone interview. They'll ask you how you plan to promote their offers and how much you expect to spend. They'll also ask you how long have you've been involved in affiliate marketing.

Once you've been accepted, you can get started right away. You will be assigned an affiliate manager who you will work with to determine the best offers for you and how to optimize your efforts, etc. How do you know which one(s) to choose? It's generally recommended to sign up with a lot of CPA networks in order to get the best results. But you can also start with just one until you get the hang of it.

Here are just a few of the CPA networks to choose from:

MaxBounty has a very solid reputation as being friendly and helpful. Their offers are diverse and include paid surveys, gambling, finance and more. They also have some offers that allow incentives.

Rocket ProfitRocketProfit is one of the very few CPA networks which is NASDAQ-listed.

NeverBlue is another very popular network among CPA affiliates. One of their quality features that makes them stand out from the others is their extremely user-freindly platform which makes it easy to pick out the best offers.

AzoogleAzoogle is a very solid CPA Network with a diverse selection of offers for publishers to promote. Free trials, ringtones, finance, are included in addition to many others.

Copeac - (Communicate Perform Achieve) - is another choice for many successful CPA marketers.

FluxAdsFluxAds includes many "freebie offers" and some that cater specifically to MySpace related sites.This company is also noted for its friendly and helpful affiliate managers.

Hydra Network offers a promise to beat any payout for the exact same campaign. This network also offers has a Hydra Rewards Program as extra incentive to go with them.

Primary Ads is powered by Kowabunga's affiliate platform, instead of Directtrack.

ClixGaloreClixGalore has their own proprietary plaform plus plenty of unique offers you won't on any other CPA network.

Xy7Pepperjam Network call their CPA Network 'next generation affiliate marketing'. The interface and reporting puts most other CPA networks to shame.

There are many more CPA networks to choose from. Pick one or a few and start earning money online. I have a book called CPA Overdrive and its only 7 dollars, check it out if you're interested in learning a few tips to get started or one of the secrets revealed if you've been working CPA for a while now.
