So, let’s get started.

First of all, this isn’t one of those methods that promise you that you will rank on the first page of Google within days. It will take some time, but it will be all worth it when you’re raking in the big bucks.
As we all know, building quality backlinks back to your site is one of the most important things you can do to rank higher in the search engines. And that’s what we will do.

We will focus on Social Bookmarking and Article & Directory submissions.

Social Bookmarking

The great thing about social bookmarking sites is that they attract search engine spiders. By having a link on the top social bookmarking sites, you can get a much higher ranking in the search engines within days as opposed to months with other methods.

Once you sign up, you need to be a little creative. Join related groups in the network and post your posts with a link back to your site. Link back to your articles and ther useful content and NOT to your affiliate pages. There are hundreds of different bookmarking sites, some better and more popular than others, but they can all build good high quality links that will bring you tons of extra traffic. Below are the top 10 bookmarking sites to get you started.

• Digg.com
• Propeller.com
• StumbleUpon.com
• Reddit.com
• Del.icio.us.com
• Newsvine.com
• Fark.com
• Blinklist.com
• Clipmarks.com
• Shoutwire.com

You can easily submit your whole site to over to 160 social and bookmark sites at once at socialposter.com

Article & Directory Submission

One of the best ways of promoting a website is by writing articles and submitting them to ezines. Not only are you creating more backlinks for your site, but the readers of your articles will also view you as an expert in your field. This will give you very powerful leverage because they are far more likely to trust you, which means they are more likely to buy your affiliate products and subcribe to your RSS feed.

One of the most popular ezines is ezinearticles.com. There, you can submit 15 -20 of your best quality and original articles that link back directly to your site . The aticles should have your primary keywords as well as secondary all linked on your domain. You can then find hundreds of other article directories where you can submit your already written articles and that will help you create even more backlinks, traffic and credibility.

You can find lists of many directories, including article here:

I was sure I could somehow get my TV serviced under the manufacturer’s warranty if something were to go wrong, but I figured it would be more of a hassle if the retailer from whom I purchased the TV wasn’t there to back me up. So I went elsewhere.

This principle, which I call “the fear of warranty,” is one of the reasons why GM (GM) is doing everything it can to avoid the bankruptcy process. People tend to feel less comfortable doing business with companies they perceive are on the ropes.

But I submit that the principle holds true at the other end of the spectrum as well. Brands that are setting the world on fire make people feel more confident about (and perhaps even more intelligent for) doing business with them. And one very visible signal a brand can send about its momentum is how consistently it advertises.
Riding the Victory Train

You probably have at least a vague familiarity with the names Michael Beschloss and Doris Kearns Goodwin. They’re the Presidential historians who always seem to be called upon by the television networks to provide expert commentary during campaign seasons. They really seem to know their stuff.

Of course, you and I can’t say with certainty whether or not they are the most qualified historians to comment on Presidential elections. Oh, sure, they are intelligent, studied academics who provide interesting insights. But there are probably many other capable people who could do the same.

What makes us believe that Beschloss and Goodwin are the leading experts is the fact that they are visibly and consistently out there, presumably because they’ve been vetted by people who should know. The fact that we see them on TV all the time is, in and of itself, proof of their leading expertise. Simply put, their visibility leads to credibility.

The same thing is true with products and services we see advertised day after day. The more visible a brand is, the more opportunities it earns to build trust with its customers and prospects.

Consider some of today’s most successful products and services. Without each of us personally spending a great deal of time and effort researching, testing and comparing competitive alternatives, we don’t really know whether Nike (NKE) makes a better shoe, Michelin (MICP.PA) manufactures a better tire, or Verizon(VZ) has created a better network. Instead, we entrust at least some of our judgment to the momentum these brands appear to have in the marketplace.

In some respects it doesn’t even matter what their ads say; the simple fact that each of these brands is actively and consistently “in the game” speaks volumes—especially in challenging economic times—and generates genuine momentum for their brands.
The Wisdom of Crowds

In his book, The Wisdom of Crowds, James Surowiecki makes the case that “together all of us know more than any one of us does.” He says, “Markets are made up of diverse people with different levels of information and intelligence, and yet when you put all those people together and they start buying and selling, they come up with generally intelligent decisions.”

In the world of advertising, consistency is like a scorecard on the wisdom of crowds. People know that advertising is expensive, so the more a company advertises, the more successful it must be. And the more successful it is, the more it means that other people are choosing it. Which means that it may be a good idea for you and I to choose it as well.

Your brand can benefit from this power of positive momentum. Through your initial advertising efforts, people will learn that that you exist. With repeated exposure, they’ll learn that you’re stable. With even more repeated exposure, they’ll assume you’re successful—after all, based on your ability to sustain a long-term advertising program, you’d have to be.

The specific content of your ads is, of course, of vital importance as well—Beschloss and Goodwin wouldn’t last long if they were misleading, annoying, or ignorant. But what’s true of your career, of sports, and of life in general is also true of advertising: never underestimate the power of simply showing up.

Some babies seem to come out of the womb with fire in their bellies while others are phlegmatic from the get-go. So if you’re looking for ways to fire up, I suppose the best advice is, “Choose the right parents.”

But what if you’re not naturally driven? I reviewed my career-counseling notes on more than 400 clients to find the strategies that have worked best at lighting a fire under these procrastinating, unproductive small-business owners. There’s no one size-fits-all cure. Looking back, it’s clear that each procrastinator needs a personalized combination of one or more strategies. Here’s a smorgasboard to choose from:

Find Your Passion
What’s your hot button?

* Seeing your numbers grow? I encouraged one retail store owner to chart his profits every day. That motivated him to make the extra efforts he knew he needed to make.

* Picturing what your earnings could buy you-a house, a college education, a boat? I had a client put pictures of his dream house where he’d see them every day: on his cash register, on the refrigerator, on his Day-Timer.

* Helping society? A massage therapist found more motivation to market herself by thinking of herself as a Mother Teresa, helping the ill, tired and stressed-out. I reminded her that her gifted hands might do more to save the world than the efforts of many higher-status professionals.

* Adrenaline? Some people are motivated by it. I encourage them to play mental games with themselves to encourage an adrenaline rush. For example, I tell them to give themselves 30 minutes to do something that should take 40, and if they do it, then reward themselves. Sometimes the adrenaline rush is a reward in itself. I’ve even encouraged some adrenaline-junkie clients to take direct aim at an inferior competitor and try to do everything ethically possible to win over his customers and put him out of business.

Team Up

* Find a partner. Some people who would otherwise goof off perform better when they know they’re responsible to someone else. It’s especially helpful if your partner has fire in his or her belly-that makes your torpor even more embarrassing.

* Work in an office with others. Sometimes seeing others in action motivates you to follow suit. Don’t know anyone who needs an officemate? Look up “Executive Suites” in your Yellow Pages, or check the Web site of the National Business Incubation Association.

* Join or form a support group. Weight Watchers works, in part, because of the peer pressure that comes from the weekly weigh-ins. Similarly, some small-business owners gain fire in their bellies by joining a businessperson’s support group. Check with your Chamber of Commerce, or start your own by placing an ad in a local business periodical. Or find a loving taskmaster-someone to yell at you daily, “Get off your lazy butt!” With some people, that actually works better than anything else.

Tweak Your Business
Buy a suit off-the-rack, and it will probably look just OK. But to really look terrific, you should get it tailored to fit you. Same with your business. Here are some examples:

* Maximize the use of your best skills. David is a terrific Web site designer but a lousy salesperson. At my urging, he hired a salesperson so he could spend more time using his best skills. He ended up generating much more than the cost of the salesperson.

* More often than you might think, you can integrate your hobby into your job. For example, a jewelry store owner’s hobby is playing the violin. When he isn’t waiting on a customer, he plays. Not only does that pass the time, it attracts customers. An interior decorator’s hobby is photography. She decorates her office’s walls with before-and-after pictures of her projects. My hobby is playing the piano. At the end of sessions, if appropriate, I offer to play the piano for my clients. They usually love it, and, ham that I am, so do I.

Get More Skilled
The more competent you feel, the better feedback you’ll get, and in turn, the more you’ll stoke those embers in your belly. Often smarter than a long back-to-school stint is to attend what I call You U: Find live and e-mentors, watch peers work, take short workshops, or read your professional association’s publications and other practical articles.

Know How to Handle the Tough Moments
One of the fastest ways to extinguish fire in your belly is to hit a tough-to-solve problem. When you bump up against a hurdle, these strategies may help you leap it:

* The one-second task. When faced with a task’s enormity, it’s tempting to procrastinate. Cure: Think of the next one-second task you need to do-open a book, pick up the phone, sort your faxes, whatever. Often, doing that one-second task is enough to distract you from procrastinating and get you rolling again.

* The one-minute struggle. When you reach a tough problem, struggle for no more than one minute. Chances are you won’t solve it. But after one minute, you can decide to get help, plan to come back to it later when you can view it with fresh eyes, or decide you can get the job done without solving that problem.

Make It Fun
Your attitude can make work more pleasurable. For example, every time you make a phone call, decide to make it enjoyable, even playful. That not only makes your work more fun, it makes you more effective. When I’m counseling a client, I make a point of occasionally interjecting a little silliness just for the heck of it. When I started to do this, I was afraid clients would view my dalliances as a waste of time and even as unprofessional, but I’ve found they really like them. Indeed, many clients use my first joke as their cue to play around a bit during sessions.

Get Tough
In the United States, we avoid calling people “lazy,” at least to their faces. We can call them procrastinators or fearful, but “lazy” is seen as too much of a putdown. But the unvarnished truth is that some people are lazy. Some of my lazy clients have been helped by my “tough love” lecture:

People who always find excuses for not doing what they should are losers. Yes, losers. They fail at work and usually in their relationships. And you’re well on the path toward becoming a permanent loser.

The good news is that there’s still time to change–if you’re willing to face the fact that right now you are a loser, and all the introspection, self-pity and therapy in the world won’t take the place of just doing it. Work before play, no excuses, no working on peripheral, easier tasks when there are central ones waiting. Every time you reach the moment of truth-when you’re deciding whether to work or goof off-you’re taking a step toward being a winner or a loser. It’s your call.

What exactly is perseverance and how can you utilize it to bring about the desired results in your life?

What does perseverance have to do with attracting Abundance and Happiness and how can it be utilized in the most effective way? That is what we will cover here.

First of all let’s look at what perseverance is according to the Merriam Webster Dictionary. It states……..

per·se·ver·ance Function: noun : the action or condition or an instance of persevering : STEADFASTNESS

As we can see perseverance is an action that we must take…to remain steadfast in that action until the desired outcome is achieved.

By remaining steadfast and determined in whatever it may be that you are desiring to see manifest in your life is of crucial importance if you are to bring about those results that you truly do desire.

It’s often perceived that the Power of Perseverance is strictly of a physical nature.

My personal perspective is that the greatest power that you hold is using The Power of Perseverance to shift the quality of consciousness…the underlying beliefs that can make the physical journey difficult.

Developing the perseverance to hold fast and shift the quality of consciousness which is ALWAYS at cause, provides the greatest assistance in fulfilling whatever it might be that you desire to accomplish. It makes the physical journey more enjoyable and less strenuous.

In using the Power of Perseverance in this way, you are in essence reprogramming and removing the subconscious blocks that are keeping you from immediately and effortlessly attracting and receiving those things that you desire to see manifest which have already been promised to you.

In the case of bringing about desired results into your life, the formula looks like this.

Awareness + Desire + Belief + Action + Perseverance = Phenomenal and seemingly magical outcomes in your life.

So why is it that perseverance is sometimes necessary and at other times it seems that things just come into our lives with almost magical ease?

The answer to that is based on what you have previously established to be truth for you.

It’s truly just a matter of perspective. Do you believe that your goal is going to be hard, difficult to achieve, and it’s attainment requires great sacrifice? It will.

Do you “perceive” the actions necessary to achieve the end result must be unpleasant? They will be.

Do you see the outcome in your minds eye and hold the picture of seeing it’s completion as fulfilling, rewarding and enjoyable as you work your way towards it? That’s precisely how it will unfold.

It’s due to falsely established beliefs that many have established and continue to hold on to are the very reason that the events, conditions, and circumstances that you desire to see manifest can at times seem impossible to reach.

It is times like these where the Power of Perseverance is necessary to initiate, and is the force that will allow you to continue to take action until you develop the awareness of the correct action that will allow you to quit going against and begin going with the “flow.” The kind of action that enables you to begin attracting the means to fulfill those things that you most desire, whatever they might be.

Put another way…

The Power of Perseverance is best and most effectively utilized when you hold fast and shift the underlying, unseen cause that is creating the “physical reality.” It’s what allows you to hang on to the dream or desire long enough to establish correct beliefs that enable and empower you to begin attracting the people, resources and circumstances for bringing your desire into physical form. It enables you to hold fast long enough to begin taking the correct action which cannot and will not fail to bring into the physical realm those things that you most desire to bring about.

It is perseverance that is responsible for and is the fuel that empowers and keeps you traveling down the road of higher self awareness and deeper understanding.

Although the Power of Perseverance is and can be utilized in a physical sense, it is the underlying cause…the beliefs and perceptions held that can make the physical activity less than it has the potential to be. The belief held is what is responsible for producing less than the desired outcome or far greater than many perceive to be attainable.

It’s all a choice…your choice. There is none right or wrong. Each choice only leads to an experience that enables you to learn and grow and take another step forward in fulfilling whatever it is that you came to fulfill.

Utilizing The Power of Perseverance to advance in your understanding, to build upon the truth of who and what you “truly” are can and will dramatically reduce the need for “physical” perseverance.

Falsely established beliefs + a lack of perseverance equates to a life of mediocrity, struggle, discord and perhaps even hopelessness.

Developing enlivening and empowering beliefs combined with perseverance create what are often perceived to be miracles.

Regardless of the outcome, it’s all a miracle. A creation that you choose. If you find that what you are choosing isn’t bringing about the desired result, initiate The Power of Perseverance. Persevere in heart, mind, spirit and physical activity until the underlying cause shifts, no longer requiring struggle and excessive effort.

It’s all about flow. It’s all about what you choose. It’s all about the beliefs that you allow to determine your outcomes.

For me, The Power of Perseverance is best utilized and most powerful by choosing to become more aware…to remember who and what I “truly” am which empowers me to become more.

How you choose to utilize the Power of Perseverance is an individual choice. Using it to advance your understanding, to elevate your beliefs and enhance your awareness is, what I believe to be the “best way.”

We all understand the importance of desire and what desire creates, but before desire and all of its by products can be created we must have a “WHY.” Having a “why” is not possible without a clear understanding of “one’s self.”
We all start from the same place, the same DNA structure. Basically I like to think we all start from Zero. So why do some excel and some don’t? A lot has to do with knowing “one’s self” and having that “clear why.” Let me give you an example of a very “clear why.” Let take a two year old….the two year old wants a cookie. “I want a cookie” he asks. “No” is the answer. “I want a cookie….I want a cookie….I want a cookie.” The two year old persists until the objective is achieved. That’s a “clear why,” and we all know that the two year old will be successful 90% of the time.

So….What is your “WHY?” My why is and always has been my wife Jamie. When our son Ben was alive they both were my “why.” Ben was severely handicapped and Jamie was Ben’s mother and caregiver. It was a 24/7 job….no days off, no vacations, and little help from me. I was busy building our business. Jamie and Ben were basically prisoners of our home. They couldn’t really go outside or do anything we all think of as normal. So, my “why” was to make that existence, in our home, as comfortable as possible. I wanted our home to lack no amenities, to be beautiful, to have beautiful views from every window. My “why” was to make that crappy situation the best it could be. Today, I’m sad to say that Ben is gone, but Jamie is still my “why.” She deserves the best possible second half to her life that I can provide. So, what is your “WHY?”

A clear “why” is what holds you on track! It doesn’t allow you to waiver! It fights off excuses! It gets you through the tough days, months, or years! Once a clear “why” is established, the pathway to desire and inspiration is opened.

Inspirational Development:
What are you doing to actively open the pathways for inspiration? Below are some activities that can assist inspirational development.
1. Meditation
2. Listening to inspirational speakers vs. the same old radio nonsense when driving.
3. Watching inspirational videos.
4. Reading extraordinary stories.
5. Physical activity such as the gym, a walk in the park, or a bike ride.

All help stimulate and open the pathways to allow “inspiring thinking” to take place.

Inspirational Management:

Inspirational management is really very easy. Here it is…..It’s important to act in the moment of inspiration! Don’t let that moment pass. When you act in the moment of inspiration the whole picture doesn’t need to be totally clear. Just act! Your inspiration will allow things to unfold as you progress. Inspiration is nothing more than energy passing through the universe, and if not acted upon it continues to move until someone does.

So, first find your “why.” Next, work to open the pathways to desire and inspiration, and finally act in the moment of inspiration.

Maybe these questions are bigger than you and I. Maybe the World will always be filled with People that rather live with the Story of “Would’a, Could’a, Should’a”. I tend to think differently though. I am not afraid of Work. I am not afraid of Risk…and Risk without the Guarantee of Reward. My guarantees have always been to myself. If I guarantee myself, full out effort on a daily basis towards my goal, fear and procrastination will never rule my circumstance.

I have always been a Entrepreneur. However, I only started out on line, less than a year ago, and I never once felt inclined to look back. I never let the totality of the Internet and opportunities overwhelm me. I never let the fact that I never built a website, banner ads, blogs, PPC Campaigns, Twitter, Face Book, or the other nuances of the Internet grip me and take control of a vision I had. I have always, and will control never to be afraid of work. Work, with Vision, and Determination will allow me to conquer this new avenue and business challenge of my life. Let me break it down for you:

Work, on the Internet is compromised of some very simple elements. First, you must be a student. I committed to my mindset that I wasn’t going to make $100,000 my first month. Did that mean I failed? Of course not. I have more respect for the Internet Marketing Industry than that. I understand in any Business on line or off, I first must be a student. Not a student for a day, week, month, or even a year…for how long? As long as it takes to allow me to hit my financial goals. Just because you wanna be Doctor, and have a desire to be a Doctor, it doesn’t allow you to circumvent the process. You must be schooled, trained, and tested to be a Doctor. You must have respect for the process. Look, unless your Doogie Howser, you will not breeze through Medical School in 6 months. You must be willing to pay a price…you must be willing to WORK for it.

You must commit to the daily habit of being an Entrepreneur. Along with being a daily student to your craft you must now commit to the daily action steps in growing your Business. Whether that be placing ads on the Internet, new blog entries, networking through Facebook, Twitter, Etc. You must take Action steps. Look, don’t fall victim to the Internet illusion that once you have a website or a blog or a income opportunity this entitles you to success. Here is what it entitles you to: The Opportunity to Work towards achievement. Whats wrong with that? Have we all not said to ourselves…”If someone would just give me a chance?” “If someone would just give me a shot?” Well they did!!! You are here now, reading this, because you have found something on line or are searching for something on line that will allow you to achieve!!!

We work so hard and so long for others, with little to no guarantee. We must stop looking and start acting…today. There is no better time than the present opportunity, the one you have or the one your searching for to achieve. However, be steadfast in the notion that you must and will work for that achievement. Work harder than you have at anything. Be willing to be all in for you and what you want. Be willing to have a story that is different. Have your story be through, hard work, dedication, education, and daily action that YOU achieved something so special and extraordinary…..

4 Certain Success is all about Work. Paying a Price. Being Committed. This is your opportunity in achieving your 4 Certain Success.

What is Advertising Online? Well, that’s where is not as simple. There are literally hundreds of ways to market and advertise your opportunity online, and guess what? The majority of them work. Not all, (see companies that guarantee HITS), but the majority do. The challenge for a new online entrepreneur is they do a little of each and instead of mastering one or two, that will drive traffic. Research, the time it takes to effectively research any site or sites prior to spending money is very, very, very daunting. OH by the Way…fact is, the person that drives the most traffic to their site wins!!!

The number one misconception in the Home Based Business Industry is, your an Owner not a Student. Well, again don’t want to burst your bubble here, but you must be an Entrepreneur and a Excellent Student. You must master your craft of marketing and advertising. If the System you purchased doesn’t offer it, then you must seek to find it, or find help along the way. The help is not necessarily your upline. They are running a Business as well as mentoring others. I heard a great quote not long ago and see where you fit in:

“Work with those that deserve it….not those that need it”…Seems very fair don’t you think? Just because you gave your money to an opportunity doesn’t mean your entitled to success.

Step 1, let’s get comfortable with http://www.alexa.com/ Alexa is an incredible resource to maximize building your Marketing and Advertising Database. Let’s run through the process:

http://www.alexa.com/ PRINT THE STEPS BELOW FOR FUTURE USE

1. From the Home Page you will see on the right hand side of the Page: Site Info, and a place to put in a web address.
2. For example put in the following website: http://www.shoemoney.com/
3. It will take you to a whole new Page…you will see the following information on http://www.shoemoney.com/: First key component is a Traffic Rank 77,025. What does this mean? In the case of Alexa the lower the number the MORE traffic that the site gets. In the case of number it flip flops between Yahoo and Google. But don’t worry about them.
4. Now is there a certain number cutoff, meaning you shouldn’t advertise on a site higher than “X” number. Well some logic says, only advertise on sites that are Ranked 100,000 or less. To me that is way to black or white. I think the thinking on whether to invest advertising dollars on a site has something more to do with the trends of the site. Scroll down the Alexa page a bit further…..
5. You scroll down the page stop at you will see more statistics on the website specific. Page Views, Number of Pages a user looks at , and overall traffic trends. Shoemoney.com good place to advertise. But these statistics will tell you more of a site than just the Traffic Ranking. Let’s say, you have a website that is relatively new, and the Alexa Ranking is 318,990. Conventional wisdom says don’t advertise there. However, at looking at the trends, are the percentages up through the roof? Is traffic up to 200, 300 or 800%? Is the reach up 10,000 or more? Are the Page views up? If you could say yes, to all of the above….GO FOR IT!!!! You may be hitting an up and coming site, and might be able to get cheap advertising!!!
6. Also, let’s say, you went on to a website and the Traffic Ranking is 55,267 and all the percentages, traffic, and page views are down and down significantly….would you advertise there? Maybe maybe not…..
7. I have driven traffic to my sites that have an Alexa Ranking of 775,944!!! Don’t let the Traffic rank be your sole decision maker…that is for lazy advertisers…not Monster Advertisers.

Now here is the really cool thing about the Alexa site, that is the Related Links link. Scroll back up the page you are already on, on the left hand side, you will see related links. Click on that….

Now on the new page, this will show you sites that are related to that of http://www.shoemoney.com/ as an example, as we used above!!! For each and every website your own, after checking its Alexa Ranking you WILL ALWAYS click on related links. You will have some duplication, but it will as bring up fresh sites!! You will keep building, building, and building your database.

Now, let me give you some sites to run through, check its’ Alexa Ranking and get related links on, and just start the building process: shoemoney.com, johnchow.com, johncow.com, gorillasushi.com, youngentrepreneurs.com, moneybites.com, dollarshower.com, dollarsandsense.com, collinlahay.com, ablewise.com, and 24.com If you do this you will start building that database by the hundreds.

If you think this small database building technique was easy…wait till we talk blogs!! Look Your Success is Right in Front of You!!! Grab it and Run with it!!!
