This is something that I’ve resisted for some time, simply because I felt that it didn’t work well. As a proof in point, I recently had to fix a customer’s website that had caching issues.

But going through the fix made me think, should I be relooking at this option within WordPress? I do have some sites that are seeing some serious traffic and I’d like to make sure that I’m ahead of the curve instead of behind!

Let me first explain caching 101.

WordPress Caching 101

 WordPress is actually a very complex framework of calls and procedures that composes a fixed web page to the web surfer when it is requested.

Before the web surfer arrives on the scene to see your page, the web page is composed as some web programming code, a bit of html code and finally data settings that are sitting in a database.

You can aliken it to a baker who has all the ingredients to make a cake ready for the soon to arrive customer. Once the customer arrives and places his or her order, the baker quickly whips together the cake mix, bakes it lightning fast and serves it to the customer ready to go.

Now, you and I both know that preparing a cake takes time. So the smart baker wakes up extra early to bake all the goods he believes he’ll need for the day beforehand.

Truly that only makes sense. Now the baker can satisfy the customer order, literally in seconds.

When you use WordPress Caching, it’s much the same idea. The caching plugin will premake the web pages for the prospective web server and when they arrive to your site, the page is already prepared, thus just needs to be presented to the surfer.

Sounds pretty logical so far, right?

WordPress Cache – Fly In The Ointment

There always has to be a fly in the ointment, of course. WordPress caching is no exception.

Let’s think on the baker example for a moment. Let’s say the baker wants to have the cake 100% ready for the customer. But in reality the baker gets stuck at some point.

Is the cake going to be a birthday cake for some name Sam, Sue or Jim? He just doesn’t know?

So, the baker will still have the customer waiting for the final preparations, like filling out the writing on the to be purchased cake. He just cannot guess what the cake must say.

The same occurs with WordPress. For example, if someone wants to leave a comment, then the caching program must then tear down the ‘cached page’ and replace it with new content.

Now, this isn’t a biggie, but for some other features and functions, caching can cause ruin to the website.

So, where do I sit on caching?

I’m still not sure, just yet. WordPress has matured significantly since I last looked at caching and this site is currently working with caching in place, so we will see. I don’t know if I’d roll it out to an e-store operated by WordPress just yet.

If you to are not sure, the better option, in my opinion, is to get better hosting. Caching has it’s place but it cannot fix slow or poor web server hosting. Making sure that you have enough time on the server you are renting time on is probably the #1 fix you should investigate first.

What do you think about Wordpress caching? Please tell me with your comments below.

This is a question that just about every Internet Marketer asks at one time or another. Is it really possible to get ranked?

I remember the days when I was creating my first sites and was thrilled by the fact that Google actually indexed my pages after a week or so. Then I’d be patiently waiting, checking every 2 hours, to see if I was now being ranked, just like a child peeking under the Christmas tree.

Soon, I found myself ranked somewhere. But most times, I didn’t. So, I did a bit of reading and discovered that on-page SEO was the answer.

So, I patiently learnt everything that I could about on-page SEO and worked very diligently to fix errors and omissions.

And I noticed some change. But not enough. Selling from page fifty of Google just doesn’t cut it.

Soon I also found out that keyword research was very important. Excellent! I did know that I had to do good keyword research, but I made it my goal to find really money keywords!

Once again, this helped. In some cases, it got me to page one on some search terms. But I just couldn’t see consistency. For one domain, I’d dominate page one of Google and for the next, I’d be little more then indexed.

I did more learning and soon discovered that getting backlinks was important. So, I started to manually backlink some. But it was tedious work and well, to be honest, didn’t seem to be making much of an impact.

Next, I started to purchased automated tools like directory, rss and article submitter tools.

Once again, pretty hit and miss. I’d do a backlinking bliz with these tools. Then I’d wait.

Again, some of it helped but still not perfect. I would find that I soon abandon those tools as they just didn’t seem worth the effort.

I started to believe that getting ranked might just not be possible! Sometimes you got lucky and sometimes not.

I would read stories of other individuals who were doing very well with their efforts to get ranked and I would corner them, (when I could). I’d plainly ask them, so is it true or are you just selling e-books or courses?

Once cornered, some didn’t have anything in terms of proof but there were a choice few that proved themselves. I would actually go out looking for these highly ranked keywords that were also moderately to highly competitive. I had one fellow throw something like “fishing boats in the south of France”. I’ve come to learn that I could rank for #1 for a very long tailed keyword like that in about 10 minutes or less. So, these didn’t count.

But that did prove that it was possible!

I’m also the kind of guy too who will read 20 ebooks and watch 10 videos on the same topic. Call me kind of slow, but I need to see confluence between different teachings to dig out the real nuggets of info.

What have I found?

Backlinking is extremely important. Probably more important than any other activity in regards to getting ranked.

But there are a few rules to the game:

1. You need to make sure you make good use of the hyperlink text within the backlink.
2. Go after one keyword per page. (I’m still working on this one, but it seems to be relevant.
3. Seek diversity in your linking strategy. Don’t just post to ezine articles or just to one type of website. Seek links from multiple types of websites and sources.
4. Look for websites that are high PR. I will gladly take backlinks from sites that are PR1 to PR9. I’m also experimenting with backlinking to sites that are no PR, but very mixed results.
5. Seek backlinks that have staying power. If I think that my links is spammy, thus can be taken down by a website owner, I don’t bother. This leads me to point 6.
6. Make sure that the backlink you ask for is paid for! Now, I’m not talking $$$, I’m talking value. Spammy comments or spammy forum posts are just that spammy. If you use forums to your advantage, by offering good comments and value, your link signature will do very well in profits indeed!

One more final point. You’ll find that as your primary pages start to get ranked, your secondary and newer pages will start to get a boost too. But this will require you to continuously update by adding new and interesting material to your sites.

With all of these things in mind, yes, you can get ranked and ranked very well! Now, I know that you’ve read this whole article if you’ve gotten to here, so go one more step and leave me your comments about getting ranked. Do you agree, or disagree? Do you have something to add. Fire away!

After tons of work (and still a bit more to do), WordPress Bootcamp 101 is open to the public!

It currently consists of almost 5 hours of video instruction and close to 70 lessons. It’s a course that is designed not to only show you how to set up a blog, but to fully understand all the functionality available to you within WordPress.

Aren’t There 50 Other Wordpress Courses Out There Already?

Yes there are. But I wanted this one to be different. I wanted the information to be ‘complete’. I’ve done probably 40 of those other 50 courses and was always still looking for more information.

I can’t say that WordPress Bootcamp 101 is the definitive guide to WordPress, but it does cover 95% of what is important to the average user.

I Don’t Want Know How To Or Want To Learn How To Program!

Great! I hear that. This course has minimum code shown. Only in important, want learn areas, do I delve a little bit into the code. But all unnecessary, if you wish.

Can I Make Money With This Course?

Yes and Yes! The first yes is  because I start the course showing different ideas and sites that I’ve created with WordPress. I’m currently gleaning an easy income from these sites and as time marches on it only gets better and better!

On the second yes, I will be soon permitting affiliate sales to this course. Again, I believe that it’s a great course and an affiliate has the ability to make up to 40% of the cost of the course.

Will It Be Kept Up To Date?

Absolutely. I want it to reflect changes that could occur to WordPress. It is currently written to version 2.9.x, but I also know that version 3.x is just around the corner.

What Will I know Once I’m Done WordPress Bootcamp 101?

You will have a firm grounding of the essentials to WordPress. Plus I’ve encluded special sections showing techniques that WordPress owners could encounter.

For example, how to install a site. How to move a site. What are the best plugins? What if I’m hacked?

Plus, you’ll know the difference between differen things in WordPress. For example, how to make WordPress come across more as a corporate or static site with a blog section is covered.

I’ve been asked in many forums what the best source of income that I’ve had to date with Internet marketing.

And I know that your second question is, what does a picture of the beach got to do with the first question? Read on.

Without a shadow of a doubt, the very best method of generating revenue on the Internet is by selling your own information products.

This can be on any topic you choose too. I’d actually recommend that you vary your product offerings.

But if you want to make the game of online marketing your only game and have it provide all of your needed income, then you need to be ready to create several products.

I would recommend between 10-20 products. Now, you may have fainted but you’ll be surprised how easy it can be to do just that. With the right software and a little bit of time, you can create a fantastic product that will continue to sell well in the long term.

I would also say that giving yourself exactly one calendar month to get your first product done is a good deadline. It’s just enough time to cut your teeth on the first one, but not too long to drag it out into infinity.

Hear Ye, Hear Ye, I Have A Product!

Next, you’ll want to advertise your new product offerings. There’s a couple of different things you can do at this stage.

First one I’m going to mention is probably the very best. Setup a Wordpress blog and start to chat about this particular niche.

You’ll start this on day one, even before you start to create your product. Start to gather a following who are interested in the same things as you.

It will take time to get ranked and on the front pages of Google, so, start the process. Nothing is better then free traffic!

Next, search out the forums your particular niche is interested in. Sign up in the forum and start answering and asking questions.

Let the members get to know you. When you are ready to sell your new product, then add it to your signature line in those forums. Don’t advertise any other way!!!

Did I say that loud enough? Don’t try to start selling to forum members. One the minor side, it could alienate you from other users and on the major side, you could find yourself banded from the forum!

Patience Grasshopper – You Will Get Your Just Rewards

Finally, be patient. It will take time for the product to catch on. It will take time for others to trust you.

The nice thing is as you start to become a trusted member in your chosen forums and as your site starts to rank, you’ll find yourself making a constant stream of sales.

Now, you may only sell one per day or ten per day. But you will make sales.

As you add to your arsenal of online products, you’ll soon find more and more money entering your bank account.

Before you know it, you and I will be sharing a nice cool drink on the shores of some warm Caribbean beach!

Do you want to know more? Coming out on Apr 1st, 2010 will be a new course called ‘Online Riches – Turn Your Experience and Knowledge into Easy Online Cash’. And that’s no April’s fools!

Good day all. I just want to make sure that I’ve given you a great idea on the newest piece of web automation software called UBot Studio.

I did a quick article when I first purchased UBot which you can read here. But I wanted to give you more meat to what I think about this web automation tool.

Initially I had concerns about the visual programming interface that I called a Teletubbie interface. Well, I must say that I’m impressed. There are some things I still don’t like about the programming interface, but many issues come down to the fact that this product will still need time to mature.

But is it usable? ABSOLUTELY! I wouldn’t hold off for that. As a matter of fact, after about a week of playing with this software, I’ve found I can do about 95% of everything I want right now.

This is an amazing feat, as I have purchased other automation software and found it to resolve, in most cases, just about as many problems as they create.

UBot Studio – The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

Let me just take a rundown on what I don’t yet like:

1. I do find the program a bit buggy. The programmers have taken quite a bit of time worrying about making sure features are in place and error handling has kind of suffered from that. Saying that though, the program doesn’t crater every 10 minutes. It will simply give an error which you can click through and continue working.
2. Some functions are hard to get a handle on. I’ve had to really rethink how things should be done. We will assume much when interacting with a web page, but when put to the task of programming it for automation, sometimes you have to think things out a little differently. This is more a personal problem and less a programming problem.
3. There is yet no support for POP email retrieval. This isn’t necessarily a biggie. You can go to the webmail interface of your email package and pull the email there. This may be a better solution, but I’m just getting my feet wet with it right now.
4. Training videos. Much of the manuscript and training videos is kind of all over the place. I think that there should be some time taken to clearly identify how-to’s for the program. This isn’t an unusual problem and you can, with time, find a solution to your problem in their forums or by watching videos from several sources.

Now, let me tell you what I like!

1. As I mentioned in the first article, this software work very well with Javascript. I’ve not yet gotten stuck with it.
2. Selection of elements on the page is quite intuitive. And you have choices. With a bit of hunt and peck on a web page, you can quickly ascertain what you have to look for in the code or text on a page to select a field, scrape text or click to a new page. 5 out of 5 stars for this!
3. After you start to learn the UBot way of thinking, it really doesn’t take long to learn! After a couple of days, I was starting to create some pretty wired web automation tasks! I will give you a disclaimer that I am a junior PHP programmer. But it took me months to learn PHP programming and days to learn UBot programming! I’m sure that most can learn to use this program.
4. Support has been second to none! If there is any one thing that I like about this software is that I’ve had a hot line to the support people to help me find solutions and answer my questions. In the first week, I’ve probably had about 15 hours of free hand holding! I’m very impressed! They are very quick to respond to my queries.
5. I’ve been able to automate some web tasks that I found impossible before but critical for my business. I was on the verge of putting aside a couple thousand dollars to get this outsourced. No more! For $200, I can get the job done to my exact specification in days!

Would I recommend UBot Studio? I would give you an absolute yes! In time, I fully expect the price to go up as this program develops and becomes better and better.

Quick Recommendation

If you like cutting to the chase. Here it is. If you are willing to do a bit of learning. Are willing to forgo the bugs you may encounter. And need web automation, then you need to invest into UBot Studio!

UBot normally sells for $245, but using the coupon code USING-WP and clicking here, you can lock in your sale price at $199.

In the end it does come to you. This many not be for you, but I’m dead serious about my web business and if you are too, then forgoing this purchase could cost you way more.

Let’s face it. As Internet Marketers we just want to hit home runs each and every time!

We want to be like Babe Ruth! Yeah!

But do we really? Did you know that Babe Ruth struck out most of the time and only had a small percentage of this times up to bat end up as home runs?

Could you deal with that kind of hit and miss success? Well, if you want to be super successful, you had better get used to that!

You see, if you expect to do a thing and be super successful then you are either delusional or very, very luck. Either way, you don’t want to be there.

But Babe knew what success really was. You keep trying and every once in a while you do hit a home run!

Now, if you are more smart then lucky, you will try hard to orient your efforts on batting another home run. You will continue to hone you skills towards this type of success.

How Does That Work For Me?

Now, you might be thinking, ‘Ok Frank, I agree, but how does that work for me?’

Good question. You need to just get up to bat. In other words, TRY.

You see, if you are looking for guarantees, then you will find yourself not trying. If Babe looked for a guarantee that he was going to get a home run, I’m sure you wouldn’t have know the name Babe Ruth and he would have done something else – other then baseball.

So, the first step to trying is taking an accountance of what you know, what you’ve tried and where you’ve already succeeded.

Orient your efforts in the areas of success, but continue to try other avenues too. You just don’t know what you could be missing that you haven’t tried.

I remember getting excited when I earned more then $1 on Google Adsense in a day and now, I work less and earn easily a hundred times that each and every day!

Now, I’m not saying Google Adsense is a waste of time. What I am saying is there are other avenues to earn money online. Today a nice part of my daily income is earnings with Google.

You need to learn and investigate these other ideas too. You may never know what is going to really click. Believe it or not, in this game, one very good home run can be enough!

Remember you are marketing to 100’s of millions of people! Even if you market to only 1 million people and 1% love your product so much that they buy, and your net profit is $20 per sale, you’ve made $200,000!

Think about it! It’s vitally important that you realize this fact. You are playing in a different ball park to your father or father’s father. Your market is not the village, or even city you live in. It’s the entire globe!

To conclude, Babe Ruth got it right. Step up to bat many times and every once in a while, he hit a home run. With limited success, he was still a super star of baseball!

Hey all, I have a special post that might interest you as Internet Marketers.

Let me start with the following. Don’t you just hate coughing up for an expensive piece of software or a monthly membership fee to be able to create all important links to places like social web sites?

I know it bothers me. I’ve picked up several pieces of software that promise to be good to submits articles or provide social bookmarking to be dissappointed six months later when it barely works.

I know that I’ve spent $1,000’s in this vain effort. But what are we to do? We do need these links!

Today I have some exciting news. It’s a new tool call ‘UBot’. It’s a tool that lets you create your very own automated web bots that do whatever you command them.

Now, I’m going to be first to tell you that taking the time to learn Visual Basic or another programming language is about as fun as a root canal, but I’ve been resorted to fact that I’d have to learn this to be able to create my own submission programs.

With UBot, it uses a ‘Visual Programming Language’. When I first looked at it, I didn’t like it at all. Seemed to TeleTubbie to me. But after I watch almost two days of tutorials, I was thoroughly impressed!

I will warn you that it’s $249 but they offered me a coupon code to permit you to pick it up for only $199. I’ll give that to you at the end for sure. It’s nice to save that $$$$.

But back to UBot. I’ve just picked it up myself and haven’t had much chance to play with it yet, but I’ll definitely share more soon.

But Why UBot?

But here’s why I decided to pick up UBot. If you’ve done any kind of web automation, you’ll soon discovered that there is a lot of very hard hurdles to overcome nowadays on the web. One of the biggest is Javascript. Some may call it AJAX too.

Javascript or AJAX is a programming language that performs tasks right in your web browser to give the web a more desktop application feel. I’m sure you’re familiar with it, even though you don’t know it. If you’ve ever submitted to Ezine Articles, you’ve seen and used Javascript.

Now when you try to automate things like article submissions with websites running Javascript, it is a bear! In some cases, just about impossible.

Hence, why I started to look at programming languages like Visual Basic. But after talking with a fellow marketer who is a Visual Basic expert, he told me that even he has a ton of fun trying to work around Javascript!

I was very impressed when I saw that UBot can easily and I do mean easily deal with Javascript! I watched a tutorial where one fellow automated everything on a Squidoo insert, (can you say a ton of Javascript), literally in minutes.

So, what is this tool going to do for you and me? The web is a forever changing landscape so automation tools will only work for a short period of time. If something changes on the sites that a tool is automated to work with, it will no longer work.

If you picked it up a month back you may be stuck now. But if YOU wrote the script with UBot, you simply have to step through the program, see where things changed and bingo, you are back in business!

As to the programming in UBot, I’ll be honest, that it’s interesting for sure. But doesn’t look too hard. I’ll be sure to append another post to this one tell you more.

But from first looks, it actually looks pretty simple. For example, I thought, man it’s going to be tough to spin my articles. Again, I was delightfully surprised when I asked their support people about spinning my articles. Would that be possible. The answer? No issues, just use the built in spin command! Can you say too cool?

This tool really interests me simply because it’s so oriented to you and me, the Internet marketer.

Anyhow, if you’d like to check out UBot yourself, head on over there right now by clicking here: Check out UBot.

And if you do decide to pick up a copy for yourself, be sure to use the following coupon code and only pay $199: USING-WP

Oh, please leave me a comment to tell me what you think about UBot!

I’m pretty good at keeping my web real estate safe from criminals but every once in a while someone finds a way to get in still.

Yesterday, I discovered about 20 of my WordPress web sites were compromised by an aspiring hacker. He or she may think it’s great fun and think that they have a right to hack web sites, but to me they are criminals.

They are no different to someone who skulks into your house at night to steal your jewelry. They hid behind the covers of the Internet, looking for someone to deface.

But in the end, the joke is on them. If you want to protect yourself from this sort of criminal intent, I have a few great suggestions for you.

First, take the time to get to know your hosting company’s plan of backup for your web sites. Make sure they are running a good backup plan and also ensure you know how to use it to recover your sites quickly.

My recommendation is to align yourself who offers Cpanel hosting as well as a backup product within their Cpanel called R1Soft Restore Backups. This backup system is very good and very simple to use.

You will normally find that a hacker will compromise all of the web sites that you host on a single Cpanel install, so you can perform a full cpanel recovery of the site using R1Soft. Again, consult with your local web hosting provider.

If you are looking for a good hosting provider, here’s one that I recommend, Scala Hosting. I’ve been with these folks now for about a year and I’ve had stellar service from them. And their backup system is very good and as I describe here.

Next, to stop hackers from hacking your site, make sure you have updated all of your WordPress plugins and your core WordPress install to the latest version.

I have my set to the latest, but was still cracked. It looked like the hacker either used a brute force admin password guessing and/or a password reset hack to cause my admin password to be compromised.

So, the second thing I recommend you do is create a new admin user, giving them full admin access with a complex password, then delete the admin user.

This form of attack is immediately nullified.

Finally, one final thing you can do is use the power of .htaccess files to limit access to your wp-admin folder on your WordPress install to your local IP address. This is getting a little complex for the average web master or internet marketer, but if you want as much protection as possible, you need to perform this step to.

If you are interested in form of protect and be forewarned you can lock yourself out of your sites, you can look to many great web sites, like Blog Security. The author’s posting is two years old, but still very relevant.

Keep your WordPress sites safe from hacker, crackers and script kiddies. No matter what their name, they are criminals. They want to rob you of your web sites and the earnings that you could be making with them.

Take the time to take security seriously. Fixing 200 web sites or even just one can be painful if you don’t plan for this problem in advanced.

I Hate The Warrior Forum!

If I could have $1 for every time I’ve hear that statement in one form or another, I’d be sipping cool drinks with umbrellas in them on a warm beach instead of putting up with another Alberta winter!

But why is this? What are the problems with the Warrior Forum? Well, I’ll leave that conversation up to the naysayers but I wanted to touch on a couple of the best attributes of this Internet marketers’ forum.

If you are interested in form of Internet marketing, you owe it to yourself to get very acquainted with this online forum.

Excellent Products

First and foremost, you’ll find many excellent products released as WSO or Warrior Special Offers on this forum. There are a lot of duds too but if you want to find diamonds you have to be willing to dig through a lot of dirt!

I personally purchase probably close to 20-30 WSO’s every month. I want to know what other’s are learning and doing to monetize their efforts and I’ve gotten some very excellent advice from many of these.

I am a firm believer that if you want to become an expert in a field, you have to be willing to invest whatever you have to become better in your field. I can tell you from experience, that my skill set as a marketer in general has gotten tenfold better because of these excellent WSO’s.

Excellent Discussions

There are also many subsections on the forum where you’ll find discussions on a wide range of topics. From technical programming details to ‘what’s up?’

In particular, I’d recommend that you consider becoming a member of the ‘War Room’ on the forum. Many products are pre-released within the War Room for free to those members.

Get involved in the discussions. Don’t be afraid to start a few of your own. Just don’t be surprised if no one answers! It does happen at times, but be persistent.

Strong Relationships

Finally and probably the best reason to make good use of this forum is to foster strong relationships with others who share your interests.

Let me offer you an example. I was curious about starting up an article directory service so I sought out others who had walked this path before me.

Before long, I found another member who had run an article directory for better then five years and told me a ton of information that they wish they had known in the beginning.

The information was truly invaluable! From there, I’ve developed a strong relationship with this other person as we share a like passion in article directories.

I’ve done the same on many occasions. These wonderful people not only help me out each and every day, they keep me honest too.

You see, it’s easy to say, I’ll get that done by Friday. Well, Friday comes and goes and someone will pipe up and say, ‘so, why aren’t you done yet?’ You did promise yourself to be done by now!

Soon you’ll find that you’ll be keeping your deadlines to ensure you succeed.

Not only that, when you have a down day, it’s wonderful to chat with one of these friends and have a good old fashion chat with them. Soon, you’ll be feeling better and re-energized to take on the battle once again to climb one step higher.

Are You Involved?

So, do you want to succeed? Don’t make it any harder. Get involved on this wonderful forum.

Purchase great information, share great information and foster fantastic relationships. As a matter of fact, I look to meeting you there!

I have a lot of my customers ask me one simple question: What’s the best way to succeed online?

I have a really simple answer. Build your own product.

What? What happened to Adsense or Ebay or Amazon? What about CPA offers?

All of these ideas are great, but you are only getting a small percentage of the profit pie. When you decide to build your own product and I mean information product, you get to keep not 5% but normally 95% of the profits!

Think about it for just one moment. If you were only making 5% on an Amazon sale with a total value of $100, then you are making about $5. So, you had to work hard enough to convince a propective customer to spend $100 so you can only make $5.

But what if you only had to work hard enough to convince a propective customer to spend only $5.25? Sounds a ton easier doesn’t it!

Well, it is. And here’s the kicker, you still make $5 – if it’s your information product! Because you are keeping 95% of the profits of $5.25.

You must be asking, “What product can I create?” The answer is simplier then you think. Sit down and consider what you are passionate about.

Create a list of items. Could be snowboarding. Could be cooking. Might even be about solar energy. You see, it really doesn’t matter.

If you are passionate about it, I can just about without any doubt believe that someone else or many someone else’s in this world are just as passionate.

So, let’s say you settle on a topic. What’s next? Years of contemplation and research?

No! Sit down again with a blank piece of paper and start jotting down sub ideas to the main topic. Soon you’ll fill two or three pages within ideas. Doesn’t matter how crazy they are. Just jot them down.

After you’ve completely emptied your mind of the ideas, start taking a look at the ideas and see what relates. Tie those ideas together as a proper list on another piece of paper. Soon, you’ll find that you have the outline for a great information product!

Now, it could be the simple matter of creating a word document that you can turn into a PDF or creating an hour video as a “how to”. It’s really that simple.

Let me offer you a personal story that was the aha moment for me. Last year I release the video series “There’s Gold In Them There Mountains” which is a keyword niche finding how to series. It’s a topic that I love and am passionate about.

It took about two days of effort to build this series and to be honest, probably wasn’t the most polished product, but the information that I presented was very good.

Since releasing that series, I’ve maybe put in another day of customer support to rectify technical issues with product delivery or customer questions, but again, because I was passionate about this topic, it was a joy to do.

To date, the product has sold more then $2,000 in sales. Not to shabby for 2 – 3 days work.

Since then, I’ve begun to dedicate more and more of my time and efforts on how to get better at creating great information products. Funny thing was that I have had a ton of other marketing gurus tell me what I’ve just told you, but it didn’t click until I tried.

So, what are you passionate about? What skills do you have that other’s may be interested in? Think about it. Learning how to succeed online just doesn’t have to be that hard!
