			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Scribe SEO is a software that claims to make seo copywriting easy but<span style="color: #000000;"> it is already easy.</span><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1090" title="Here to help" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/07/scribe-seo-and-the-seo-copywriting-experiment/helping_up_graph_11_15_08_pc_pro_me-300x214.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="171" /></p>
<p>Here is my first post about <a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad">Scribe SEO</a> and why you don&#039;t need any expensive software to write seo copy.</p>
<p><em><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">In this post you will learn <span style="color: #000000;">about </span></span></strong></em><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>double indented listings</strong></span></span><em><strong>, </strong></em><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">the importance of keywords</span></strong></span><em><strong> and something about<span style="text-decoration: underline;"> </span></strong></em><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Backlinks</span></strong></span></span><em><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><br />
</span></span></strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;"> </span></strong></em><em><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #000000;"> </span></span></span></strong></em> and we will also add to the results of this experiment.</p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><em>Double indented listings get more traffic</em></span></span>.  Here is a screen shot of a double indented listing. In this screen shot the double indent is a post page and a tag page.</p>
<p>The goal of this experiment is to achieve a double indented listing <span style="text-decoration: underline;">for two post pages</span> using the keyword scribe seo. These two pages that I am targeting will be my previous post and this post that I am writing now about scribe seo.</p>
<div id="attachment_1093" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/07/scribe-seo-and-the-seo-copywriting-experiment/scribe-seo-scam.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1089" title="scribe seo scam"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1093" title="scribe seo scam" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/07/scribe-seo-and-the-seo-copywriting-experiment/scribe-seo-scam-300x177.png" alt="" width="300" height="177" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">click to enlarge</p></div>
<p>To attempt to achieve this is I will link to my previous post from this post with the anchor text &#034;scribe seo&#034; and then I will link from my previous post back to this post using the same anchor text. And &#034;Wha-La&#034; I  hope to  achieve a double indented listing, that&#039;s why it&#039;s an experiment, of course there will be a few other things involved to help with actual search results position,&#8230;&#8230;like back links.</p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><em><span style="font-size: medium;">Keywords</span></em></span> are the words that describe what your page is about. Without using the correct keywords when you write the search engine may not know what you are writing about.</p>
<p>Not all keywords are created equal, some can hold a monetary value when you rank for them, others won&#039;t. If you do not understand how to find profitable keywords in your market then you may never have much success in your market so quit messing around and go <a  target="_blank" href="http://bit.ly/99Pctr">here</a> to learn.</p>
<p>Just because some keywords are highly competitive does not mean you can&#039;t target longer search phrase keywords in your market and build your site up around those keywords and over time you will develop strength for the more competitive ones.</p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;">As part of my experiment</span>&#8230;&#8230;</p>
<p>I signed up for a trial subscription to Scribe SEO because of all the fuss that has been made over whether it is a beneficial tool or not. I did an analysis of my previous post to determine what scribe seo thought about my seo copywriting skills.</p>
<p>Here are those results&#8230;..</p>
<p>If you look at my previous post it has my primary keyword in the first sentence but scribe says it is not there. How come it says this?</p>
<p><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/07/scribe-seo-and-the-seo-copywriting-experiment/scribe-content-analysis.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1089" title="scribe content analysis"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1103" title="scribe content analysis" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/07/scribe-seo-and-the-seo-copywriting-experiment/scribe-content-analysis-300x179.png" alt="" width="300" height="179" /></a></p>
<p>This is why scribe says this&#8230;. here are the keywords that scribe says I am going after&#8230;&#8230;</p>
<p><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/07/scribe-seo-and-the-seo-copywriting-experiment/seo-scribe-keyword-results.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1089" title="scribe seo keyword results"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1104" title="scribe seo keyword results" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/07/scribe-seo-and-the-seo-copywriting-experiment/seo-scribe-keyword-results-300x177.png" alt="" width="300" height="177" /></a></p>
<p>Then scribe seo tells me that I have exceeded the recommended times for the keyword &#034;seo&#034; but I really have not it just can&#039;t identify the keyword  &#034;scribe seo&#034; just like lissie&#039;s <a  target="_blank" href="http://lissowerbutts.com/scribe-seo-brian-clark-review/">scribe seo review</a> stated.</p>
<p>Then the final yellow flag is that I don&#039;t have a hyperlink in the first of my post but that was going to be added when I linked to this post.</p>
<p>So what I gather here is that if Scribe SEO actually performed on it&#039;s keyword analysis then I would have a score much more near 100%.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Just because you get a high score with this tool does not mean you will rank for those keywords in <span style="text-decoration: underline;">this lifetime</span></span></span></strong>.</p>
<p>On page optimization is just a sliver of what needs to be done. That is why you need to learn how to find profitable keywords in your market and also learn how to rank for those keywords.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Question?</span></span></p>
<p>What good is an optimized page in position (111) on Google search?</p>
<p><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Answer:</span></span></p>
<p>No Good! No one looks that far into the search results.</p>
<p>How do you get to the front page of search?</p>
<ul>
<li>You do your keyword research (no reason to spend time on non profitable to high of competition keywords)</li>
<li>You write your awesome jaw dropping content and publish to  your site. You tell other sites in your market about it and build <span style="color: #008000;">back links</span>.</li>
<li>You write more content and submit it to other blogs, directories with more <span style="color: #008000;">back links</span> coming back to you with the keyword you want to rank for in the context.</li>
<li>You build as many <span style="color: #008000;">back links</span> as you can white hat of course. Good content will also get natural linking</li>
</ul>
<p>If you want to understand <span style="color: #008000;">backlinks</span> better here is a recommend of mine  that wont cost you to learn. Allyn Hane at Blogger Illustrated will  teach you <a  target="_blank" href="http://bloggerillustrated.net/everything-you-need-to-know-about-backlinks/">everything  you need to know about <span style="color: #008000;">back links</span></a>. Because they truly are the deciding factor of what position your page is located in the search results.</p>
<p>I will analyze this post with <strong>scribe seo</strong> and see how I did.</p>
<p>Not bad, Not Bad, hehe      here are the results&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..</p>
<div id="attachment_1126" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/07/scribe-seo-and-the-seo-copywriting-experiment/scribe-seo-second-post-analysis.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1089" title="scribe seo second post analysis"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1126" title="scribe seo second post analysis" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/07/scribe-seo-and-the-seo-copywriting-experiment/scribe-seo-second-post-analysis-300x196.png" alt="" width="300" height="196" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">click to enlarge</p></div>
<p><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/07/scribe-seo-and-the-seo-copywriting-experiment/second-post-keyword-analysis.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1089" title="second post keyword analysis"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1127" title="second post keyword analysis" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/07/scribe-seo-and-the-seo-copywriting-experiment/second-post-keyword-analysis-300x194.png" alt="" width="300" height="194" /></a></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">If  Scribe SEO could determine what a keyword was it might be a nifty tool. I think I will stick to the free SEO Quake Tool, much better info, much more analyzing info as a matter of fact.</span></p>
<p>Cheers</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>In this post you will learn why you don&#039;t need <a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/2010/03/07/scribe-seo-and-the-seo-copywriting-experiment">Scribe SEO</a> to write SEO copy</strong></span>.</p>
<p>SEO is simply building authority for keywords to reach the highest  ranking in the search results.</p>
<p>Front page results obviously brings  traffic and sales if you have done the research and rank for what I call  &#034;<span style="color: #3366ff;">profitable keywords</span>&#034;</p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #ff6600;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em><strong>You  do not need any fancy software to be successful with SEO copyrighting</strong></em></span>.</span></span></p>
<p><img class="size-medium wp-image-1036 alignright" title="Which Way?" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/direction_confusion_11_30_08_pc_pro_me-300x249.jpg" alt="" width="289" height="235" /></p>
<p><em>To get the most out of this lesson you should take the time to read it all</em>.</p>
<p>If you have not figured it out yet the keyword I will rank for with this post is <strong>Scribe SEO</strong> (soon enough). It also really doesn&#039;t have to be bold but some think it makes a difference.</p>
<p>I am not a copywriter. But&#8230;. I do understand how to write and rank for keywords that I choose.</p>
<p>At the Scribe SEO website it states that&#8230;&#8230;</p>
<blockquote>
<h3>Creating search optimized web pages, blog posts, and press releases  used to be time consuming at best and mystifying at worst.</h3>
</blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em><strong>Lot&#039;s of people want you to think that SEO is hard</strong></em></span> to understand and <span style="color: #3366ff;">it really is very simple</span>. The writing of content will still be time consuming for you at best but less if you outsource. The most work involved in doing SEO is the actual keyword research to find out what keywords are really worth writing about if income is your goal.</p>
<p>Sure writing great posts about a topic that gets a large following of interested readers is great. Having a community where everyone can socialize and get a warm feeling is also superb. If your SEO copyrighting goal is to make money than you might need to change what you right about. Simply some topics have no monetization methods available.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #339966;">Sometimes you can have your cake and eat it too!</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Here are my tips for writing SEO copy</strong></span>.</p>
<ul>
<li>Put your keyword in the title but don&#039;t be bland about it                                             (click to enlarge)<a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/keyword-in-title.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1028" title="keyword in title"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1069 aligncenter" title="keyword in title" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/keyword-in-title-300x93.png" alt="" width="300" height="93" /></a></li>
<li>Write long value giving posts/articles about your <span style="text-decoration: underline;">profitable keyword</span> (500-1000 words)</li>
<li>Use your &#034;profitable keyword&#034; about 1% saturation in your content (1 time for each 100 words)</li>
<li>Don&#039;t be shy to use a couple cousin keywords in your post (example) <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em>Scribe seo review, scribe seo copywriting</em></span></li>
<li>Don&#039;t forget to add a few relevant tags to the post.<a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/tags.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1028" title="tags"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1071 aligncenter" title="tags" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/tags-300x86.png" alt="" width="300" height="86" /></a></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">Just like magic you have become an SEO copyrighting expert</span></strong></span><span style="font-size: medium;">!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">See that was not that bad&#8230;&#8230;.<br />
</span></p>
<p>Now you need to see what type of response the  owner Brian Clark of Scribe SEO has toward his customers when faced  with an honest review.</p>
<p>I was very shocked how he responded to a very professional review of his product. The biggest shocker was that he never actually addresses the concerns that were pointed out in the Scribe SEO Review.</p>
<p>So my question is&#8230;.Is Brian Clark a Professional Businessman?                                                                                                                                                        (click to enlarge)</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>(dont worry, both links just below go to that documented evidence)</strong></span></p>
<p>My friend Lissie performed an honest <a  target="_blank" href="http://lissowerbutts.com/scribe-seo-brian-clark-review/">Scribe SEO Review</a> after using the product to determine which keywords that the search engines would think she was trying to rank for. You can see that here also <a  target="_blank" href="http://lissowerbutts.com/scribe-seo-brian-clark-review">Scribe SEO</a></p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1050" title="Don't be scared" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/stickman_scared_arrow_economy_1_22_09_pc_pro_me-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="192" height="128" /></p>
<p>Another reality that needs to be faced is that on page SEO is only a small factor of what you need to be able to rank in the serps for the keywords you are going after.</p>
<p>There is allot of work ahead but don&#039;t be scared.</p>
<p>Remember these tips before writing if you want to be able to earn a living online&#8230;.</p>
<ul>
<li>Choose profitable keywords</li>
<li>Analyze the competition with free tools</li>
<li> Write value giving content with the &#034;profitable keywords&#034;</li>
<li>Keep things simple and they will be</li>
</ul>
<p>Within 24 hours after publishing this post here are the search results for my keyword targets. I have position 3 and 4 double indented and did not even try. One is a tag page. Below when I discuss double indented listings it will be between two post pages</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>scribe seo scam</strong></em> <a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/scribe-seo-scam.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1028" title="scribe seo scam"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1073 aligncenter" title="scribe seo scam" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/scribe-seo-scam-300x177.png" alt="" width="300" height="177" /></a></p>
<p>In this screen shot you can see lissowerbutts.com is position # 6 (my friend who wrote the review on scribe seo)</p>

<p>Here is my site in position #36 for the same search and no back links have been published to my site at this time.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/number-36-of-91000.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1028" title="number 36 of 91000"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1075 aligncenter" title="number 36 of 91000" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/number-36-of-91000-300x170.png" alt="" width="300" height="170" /></a></p>
<p><strong>We will discuss back links in the next post maybe.</strong> If you look at the picture below I  have two back links in this lesson, each one targeting a  different keyword then strengthening the page they are pointing to to rank it for the words that are hyperlinked. Are you starting to understand this seo stuff?</p>
<p><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/contextual-in-content-back-links.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1028" title="contextual in content back links"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1083" title="contextual in content back links" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/contextual-in-content-back-links-300x102.png" alt="" width="300" height="102" /></a></p>
<p>And then for the main target keyword which is Scribe SEO here are the results for the main review and then my site below.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>Scribe SEO</strong></em></p>
<p><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/number-31-of-131000.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1028" title="number 31 of 131000"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1077" title="number 31 of 131000" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/number-31-of-131000-300x167.png" alt="" width="300" height="167" /></a></p>
<p><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/number-81-of-131000.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1028" title="number 81 of 131000"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1078" title="number 81 of 131000" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/number-81-of-131000-300x163.png" alt="" width="300" height="163" /></a>You see that seo is very simple to understand.</p>
<p>But don&#039;t get confused about the real time investment it will take when you are going to target a large amount of very competitive profitable keywords.</p>
<p>In the next post I will explain how to get a double indented listing between two post pages using the keyword search phrase &#034;Scribe SEO&#034; as an example.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">(click to enlarge)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/scribeseo4.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1028" title="search phrase"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1057" title="search phrase" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/scribeseo4-300x169.png" alt="" width="300" height="169" /></a></p>
<p>Seeing the competing pages is just the beginning of your analysis. The most important focus when researching is the strength of your competition. This will determine the amount of work that will have to be performed to outrank them in the search engine results.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/scribeseo3.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1028" title="Starting to look into the competition for the keyword"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1058" title="Starting to look into the competition for the keyword" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/scribeseo3-300x169.png" alt="" width="300" height="169" /></a></p>
<p>Here is an example of the indented listing I mentioned earlier. Be sure and watch what happens on this search page (results 1-10) over the next few weeks for this keyword search.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/scribeseo2.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-1028" title="double indented listing"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1059" title="double indented listing" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/05/scribe-seo-review-when-a-list-blogger-brian-clark-goes-bad/scribeseo2-300x169.png" alt="" width="300" height="169" /></a></p>
<p>Remember that just because it&#039;s easy does not mean that it isn&#039;t allot of work. Implementing(taking action) is the highest standard of achievement because you will learn from your mistakes when you keep at it.</p>
<p>Cheers</p>
<p>Dirk</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Internet Marketing? Making Money Online? I really thought I was going to crush it right out of the gate. With my level of ambition and desire and even a pretty nice bankroll for advertising and promotion I believed I would be making millions a year in no time at all.</p>
<p><strong>How Sharp Is The Learning Curve?</strong></p>
<p><a  target="_blank" href="http://bit.ly/99Pctr"><img class="alignleft size-large wp-image-997" title="how sharp is your learning curve" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/learn-to-make-money/learn-curve-1024x768.jpg" alt="" width="288" height="216" /></a></p>
<p>As time progressed and dollars went out the window and I saw no return on my advertising I really did not know what was wrong. <strong>I had done everything just like they told me</strong>. I placed the ads and received the visitors but I was not having any conversions.</p>
<p>I wanted to make money online. I purchased more courses and software that was  going to get me where I wanted to be, wealthy, making money online. I had subscribed to so many lists to find out the truth and all I had was email boxes stuffed with crap the A-lister&#039;s were flogging to sell me..</p>
<p>So I have to say <strong>enough is enough!</strong> I started doing some real research instead of following a group of people that always had a new cure for the same old problem of how to make money online for a beginner.</p>
<p>You have to think for yourself you have to test and learn. No such thing as a business in a box that you can buy and have immediate results. The main thing that all these programs have in common is the owners make their money selling you the product instead of earning their money implementing the product.</p>
<p>I have allot to share and I will add that there are thousands of different markets to make money with <strong>and you can do it also</strong> if you learn the basics. If you are looking to get rich quick then you need to go look somewhere else.</p>
<p>If you are willing to work hard and want to really build a residual income online then you might want to continue reading.</p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: large;"><strong><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="color: #0000ff;">There is no magic bullet for making money online</span>!</span></strong></span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: medium;">There is a specific knowledge that you will need to be able to accomplish the goal of making money online. So why not learn from someone who makes their real online income from practicing what they preach?</span></span></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"> <span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Click the image below</span></span> </span></span></strong><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">to learn everything you will need to know to be able to make a passive income online.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><a  target="_blank" href="http://bit.ly/99Pctr"><img class="size-full wp-image-1011 aligncenter" title="how to make money online for beginners" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/learn-to-make-money/method.png" alt="" width="600" height="400" /></a></span></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A new program emerges from the mastermind  A-list group called The Third Tribe. This is what the Third Tribe States&#8230;&#8230;.</p>
<blockquote>
<h3>Third Tribe – A Conversation Between Two Worlds</h3>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>Two worlds (a generalization not focused)</strong>, <em><strong>one of traditional internet marketers, one of the social media cool crowd</strong></em>.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="font-size: large;">I have just a couple of questions below!</span><br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #0000ff;"><br />
</span></span></p>
<p><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/what-is-the-third-tribe-marketing-system/the-third-tribe-membership-scam.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-961" title="the third tribe membership scam"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-971" title="the third tribe membership scam" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/what-is-the-third-tribe-marketing-system/the-third-tribe-membership-scam-1024x425.png" alt="" width="480" height="199" /></a></p></blockquote>
<p><em>Internet Marketers</em> &#8230;They use aggressive hype and obnoxious tactics to fool people into believing there really is a &#034;get rich quick&#034; magic bullet.</p>
<p><strong>1.</strong> Why would they say &#034;<a  target="_blank" href="http://andybeard.eu/2637/internet-marketing.html">I Use Aggressive Hype and Obnoxious Tactics to Fool People</a>&#034; ? (and you know this is really the pan calling the kettle black!)</p>
<p>And then the other,</p>
<p><em>Social Media Cool Kids&#8230;</em>They reject hype and aggressive sales tactics in favor of relationships, community, and value . . . and yet seem to have taken a vow of poverty along the way.</p>
<p><strong>2.</strong> Now is this not the same group of wanna-be bloggers that they keep selling their fluff too. (No Wonder Their Followers are Poor)</p>
<p>These are the individuals involved in flogging this membership site. Darren Rowse, <a  target="_blank" href="http://www.chrisbrogan.com/">Chris Brogan</a>, <a  target="_blank" href="http://www.copyblogger.com/">Brian Clark</a> and <a  target="_blank" href="http://www.copyblogger.com/">Sonia Simone</a>.</p>
<p>Too me it sounds like more fluff and money in the bank for the A-List for 27.00 a month now and then 47.00 per month later if you didn&#039;t join now. You really have to learn on your own nowadays and who&#039;s advice should you really take?</p>
<p><strong>3.</strong> Where are the disclaimers, contact forms that should accompany a website? Did they not do all the homework?( This is an <a  target="_blank" href="http://andybeard.eu/2637/internet-marketing.html">Internet Marketing</a> Must Read)</p>
<p>I did not have time to join the program, but <em><strong>I know someone who did join the third tribe </strong></em>so they can tell you first hand about it, you can see it here at <a  target="_blank" href="http://lissowerbutts.com/third-tribe-review-inside-rowses-third-tribe-scam/">Third Tribe Review</a></p>
<p>If you take the time and use common sense you can lessen the time of your <a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com">learning curve</a> and get on your way to making money online. You can actually sell products to people that are looking for them and be involved in a great fun community at the same time.</p>
<p>As far as <a  target="_blank" href="http://lissowerbutts.com/third-tribe-marketingkeyword-academy-review-membership-sites-help/">Third Tribe Marketing</a> you will have to make your own decisions.</p>
<p>You might even eventually see a fourth tribe and even maybe a fifth tribe, who knows?</p>
<p>Cheers!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Over the last decade the internet has grown exponentially and the potential to earn an awesome income online is just beginning for the few that take the time to learn how it works and leverage this huge opportunity that just plopped itself on your doorstep via an internet connection.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">How do you make money online</span>?  <a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/are-you-ready-for-what-it-takes-to-make-money-online/lazy.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-935" title="lazy"><img class="alignleft" title="lazy" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/are-you-ready-for-what-it-takes-to-make-money-online/lazy-300x300.png" alt="lazy" width="210" height="210" /></a><br />
</strong><br />
Up First…….<span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong><em>Let&#039;s get this out of the way</em></strong></span>.</p>
<p>If you have been online for more than a year and you have purchased any programs that teach you <a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com">how to make money online</a> and you are not making any money online then <strong><em><span style="color: #0000ff;">please quit buying stuff</span> </em>!</strong></p>
<p><strong>(you need to change the part where you actually do something to make money online)</strong></p>
<p>Those meeting these obvious statements above might have a motivation problem and it may have been holding you back from getting things done but no matter how gloomy things appear to be you really can change. Having motivation problems might not be from being lazy but actually from not being interested in what needs to be done.</p>
<p>The first part of becoming motivated is having a need or a desire to become motivated. I have a hard time getting motivated especially after a long day at work. I do know that if I do some of the things that I need to do now that later I will benefit from those results. It is easy for me to put things off if I am not under pressure and that is one of my biggest downfalls.</p>
<p>So I have to look and see what kind of person I want to be seen as. This gives me that extra push that I need to get a few things done that I would otherwise not do. I am not a lazy person, in fact I am a hard worker. I want to be known as a hard worker and so this is where some of my motivation has come from.</p>
<p>I also like to learn new things. In fact I have a whole list of things that I would like to learn but I only have so much life left and I will have to let a few dreams die&#8230;.unfortunately! Making a bet or working with someone is also a motivational boost. It is always fun to work with others especially if they pull their part of the load.</p>
<p>Everybody wants to be part of a group it is simply human nature and being accepted by others can give you some serious motivation. Find out what motivates you and use it to your benefit!</p>
<p>I know for a fact that you can know exactly <a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com">how to make money</a> and never make any.</p>
<p>So..if you are new to this online stuff and before you decide that you want to learn, or that you don&#039;t I will show you some things that you should <strong>learn and understand</strong> to be able to start learning how to make money online.</p>
<p>Making Money Online is a business and it takes time to build businesses and get results. Even worse yet is that not all businesses are successful. Many have been started and never get off the ground.</p>
<p>So how do you make money online?……….You first need to understand the basics of the internet and how it works.</p>
<p><strong>What is the internet?</strong></p>
<p>The internet consists of millions of Websites and Blogs with information about most any thing you could ever think of. If you want to know something or you want to learn something then all you have to do is go to a search engine and type in what you are looking for.</p>
<p>Then the search engine gives you a list of results called the SERPS (search engine results pages) and you hopefully find what you are looking for. In the example below you can see what the serp looks like on Google when we search the keyword term: &#034;make money online&#034;.</p>
<p><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/make-money-online1.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-935" title="make money online1"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-892" title="make money online1" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/make-money-online1-300x180.png" alt="" width="300" height="180" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p>If you look at this page you will see the top ads in yellow. They are sponsored ads. Also the ads to the right of the search results these are sponsored ads also. If you also look above the sponsored ads you will see that the organic results (the ones below the yellow sponsored ads) are 1 through 10 of 222 million pages.</p>
<p><strong>So what are sponsored ads?</strong></p>
<p>These are ads that advertisers pay Google to display on the front page of the search results. More specifically these advertisers have bid on this specific keyword…&#034;make money online&#034; so their ad would show. They will pay Google a previously decided amount every time someone clicks on their ad. (of course there are contributing factors that will adjust this price higher or lower and I will discuss those later).</p>
<p>In these example pictures if you click on them you can enlarge them. What I want to show you are those sponsored ads why they are there and willing to pay Google for search traffic.</p>
<p>In this example the <strong>Average Joe</strong> wants to &#034;make money online&#034; and that is why these advertisers are willing to pay (so much) for each click to get a person that is specifically looking to learn how to &#034;make money online&#034;. Make money online is actually a broad search term but advertisers are still willing to pay.</p>
<p>The very top sponsored ad if you have looked at the photo is PPL123.com this ad reads:</p>
<p><strong>Earn $5,779+ a Month,Own hours. FT/PT. Leads. Residuals. We Build Your Business With You.</strong></p>
<p>So I copy the link so I don&#039;t charge them a click and go to their site. And it is a bummer the site no longer exists. So I will check out the next one…..OpinionPlace.com. This appears to be an online survey company that will pay you to take online surveys. <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em><strong>Your looking for a way to make money online and Google is delivering the information you are looking for</strong></em></span>.</p>
<p>The next ad is: BigTicketToWealth.com and we could go on but I won&#039;t.</p>

<p><strong>What are organic results?</strong></p>
<p>These are the listings of websites that the search engine feels are the most relevant for the search term that was searched for….remember…&#034;make money online&#034;. These web sites are listed for free. In other words when a search visitor goes to these sites they dont have to pay Google to get the visitor to the page that is listed on the serp.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/are-you-ready-for-what-it-takes-to-make-money-online/make-money-organic.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-935" title="make money organic"><img class="aligncenter" title="make money organic" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/are-you-ready-for-what-it-takes-to-make-money-online/make-money-organic-300x188.png" alt="make money organic" width="300" height="188" /></a></p>
<p>I hope you are getting the point of all this how to make money stuff….you have to sell or refer something to someone to make money.</p>
<p>Yup, you heard that right, &#034;You Have To Sell Something&#034; BUT…………………… you don&#039;t have to be a sales person, speak with anyone, ship any products, unless that is what you want to do.</p>
<p>Now let&#039;s look at the top organic result….. moneymakerinfo.blogspot.com<br />
This site is listed for free at the #1 spot out of 222 million other pages. Do you want to know why? I will tell you later but right now lets look at his site. Click to enlarge image, click again to close image.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/make-money-online2.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-935" title="make money online2"><img class="aligncenter" title="make money online2" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/make-money-online2-300x195.png" alt="make money online2" width="300" height="195" /></a></p>
<p>How is this site making money?</p>
<p><em><strong>The internet is a huge vein of gold that has not even begun to be tapped yet</strong></em>. What I and many others do to make money online is called (Internet Marketing) or (IM) for short. We create websites and/or advertisements that lead people to products, services or information that they are searching for. Then when they buy the item or perform a function even like (clicking an ad) I get paid a commission. (very easy)</p>
<p>This site makes money through selling advertising space to advertisers and through affiliate marketing by sending search visitors to programs like &#034;BigTicketToWealth.com&#034; that we looked at earlier. This site owner has become an affiliate for all these different products and receives a commission every time someone signs up.</p>
<p>Now remember that this is the MMO (make money online niche) and there are millions of other niches in which to sell other peoples products or refer other peoples services. Like how about Pet Grooming, Potted Flowers, Learn to Play Guitar, Learn to Speak Spanish. There are literally millions of different niches to make money with and why use the MMO niche just to sell junk like how to make money online stuff.</p>
<p>You will need to learn a few things:</p>
<p>How to put up a website! If this seems impossible to you right now but you are convinced that this is what you want to do you will learn it very quickly. It is easy just requires desire to learn. The learning is fun.</p>
<p>You can build free blogs and you can buy your domain names like I have here at dirkpoulsen.com and pay for hosting at a web host. My Url (dirkpoulsen.com) cost me $7.59 per year. Hosting is a different topic. There are millions of hosts, I will add more about them later.</p>
<p>How to write content for that website: Writing is not one of my favorite things to do but I have loosened up quite considerably and can put out allot of content even with the limited time I have to produce it. ( I stay focused on my MMO goal)</p>
<p>How to promote your sites…. and maybe I am getting ahead of myself. If we go back to the sponsored ads and organic results on search these are the 2 ways to promote your sites. Paid and Free, but not really free because it is allot of work to get to the first page of search results if you are in a competitive niche but well worth it in the long run, just ask moneymakerinfo.blogspot.com and also this is a free blogger blog that is ranking #1 and I will discuss Blogger.com here shortly.</p>
<p>Too be continued&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.</p>
<p>Building blogs on free platforms:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Did Rock Art Brewery Pull Strings and conspire this media blitz?</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img class="size-medium wp-image-818 aligncenter" title="vermonster" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/25/hansen-beverage-companymonster-energy-drink-bully-or-victim/vermonster-300x253.jpg" alt="vermonster" width="300" height="253" /><br />
</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">It&#039;s a bright sunny day for <a  target="_blank" href="http://rockartbrewery.com/">Rock Art Brewery</a> in Morrisville, VT. After  supposed shenanigans were pulled on them by <a  target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.monsterenergy.com/web/guest/home">Monster Energy Drinks</a> a subsidiary of <a  target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.hansens.com/">Hansen Beverage Company</a>. On Sept 14th 2009 Rock Art Brewery had been served a cease and desist order from the attorneys at Hansen Beverage Company.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-823" title="monsterenergydrink" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/25/hansen-beverage-companymonster-energy-drink-bully-or-victim/monsterenergydrink-300x216.jpg" alt="monsterenergydrink" width="300" height="216" /><br />
</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">The Attorneys told Matt Nadeau (owner) of Rock Art Brewery that he needs to stop all campaigns, advertising, labeling, production of his product &#034;<a  target="_blank" href="http://rockartbrewery.com">The Vermonster</a>&#034;. They say that the name Monster Energy is trademarked thus they have to pursue and eliminate any possible trademark violation whether soluble or not like Ver<strong>monster</strong> even if you are from Vermont and brew beer instead of making fruit drinks.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">Leaning on his legal advice Matt&#039;s advisor told him that he did not violate any of the trademark rules he then went on to state that Hansen Beverage Company would just sue him into bankruptcy.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">This is where Multi-Billion Dollar Corporations might not play nice. They get what they want due to the money they have to destroy a small resistance. Whoever runs out of money first will ultimately lose.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">Matt with the help of <a  target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://greenriverpictures.com">Green River Pictures</a> created a video that he uploaded to youtube which can be seen here at&#8230;<a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/2009/10/20/does-monster-energy-drink-help-small-business-and-have-family-values">Monster Energy Drink</a>. After that a stowe reporter picked up his sad story and the news spread fast. Matt created a pdf showing the time frame of how things transpired in just 21 days using the main stream media and social media on the internet.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">Here is that link to the pdf&#8230;<a  target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://rockartbrewery.com/uploads/20091022_rockartfinal.pdf">Congratulations America Victory Is Ours</a>.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">Looking at the aftermath of results and reading between the lines a little bit I began to wonder if this has been planned from the beginning. After reading through everything it is completely possible that this might have been preplanned. </span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">There is something that stands out to me and below is a photo with those words circled in red that made me wonder.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/25/hansen-beverage-companymonster-energy-drink-bully-or-victim/artrockbreweryhome.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-797" title="artrockbreweryhome"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-827" title="artrockbreweryhome" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/25/hansen-beverage-companymonster-energy-drink-bully-or-victim/artrockbreweryhome-1024x724.png" alt="artrockbreweryhome" width="480" height="339" /></a><br />
</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">How does a small business get free national advertising?</span></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">Then I took a look at Green River Pictures and this company creates some first class advertising media. So in my mind I put 2 and 2 together and I came up with this conclusion. If you want to be a big player in the business world you have to do big things that bring success to you. Just sitting there brewing a good product is not enough. I could go further in explanation but you might start understanding the point I am trying to make.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">Now for the aftermath&#8230;&#8230;.. <a  target="_blank" href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/2009/10/20/does-monster-energy-drink-help-small-business-and-have-family-values">Hansen Beverage Company</a>, Monster Energy Drink will obviously suffer sales do to this media blitz and I am sure they will recover. Be sure and go to their site Hansen Beverage Company and see their <a  rel="nofollow" href="http://investors.hansens.com/financials.cfm">last quarter sales</a>. They list these for possible investors. Then keep an eye out for the next quarter results as you will see a change more than likely.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">I still say bravo for Rock Art Brewery getting the attention thousands of other small businesses never will have the opportunity to have. And even though I have heard many times now that Monster Energy Drinks taste like <a  target="_blank" href="http://coffeeteablog.com/alternatives-coffee-postum-camel-piss-monster-energy-drink/">camel piss</a> I still have never tasted them or camel piss so I really have no idea.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">Maybe someday I will try one of those energy drinks but for now I never have any intention of trying camel piss.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">Make your own decisions but support the people that support you. That&#039;s my 2 Cents!</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">Cheers,</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="x-large;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Dirk Poulsen</span><br />

<p>In this video a small business owner in Vermont describes the help he received by the large corporation Monster Energy Drink, producer of a drink that gives you energy.</p>

<div class="media_container"><div class="media" style="width: 420px; height: 305px;"><object id="m2f7a764acd9f6ef326d4b05480e9cf1a" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="420" height="305"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/kbG_woqXTeg&fs=1&rel=0&border=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0&hd=0" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="false" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="flashvars" value="" /><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/kbG_woqXTeg&fs=1&rel=0&border=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0&hd=0" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" width="420" height="305" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="false" wmode="transparent" flashvars="" /></object></div></div>



<p>I have never been a fan of soda let alone energy drinks. I was completely blown away when I saw this large Billion Dollar Corp. helping out on <a  target="_blank" href="http://rockartbrewery.com/">The Vermonster</a> product for no other reason obviously than they can.</p>
<p><a  target="_blank" href="http://nuttysquirrelbottom.com/law-and-legal-issues/monster-energy-drink-sucks-the-life-out-of-small-businesses">Monster Energy Drink</a> gives me allot to think about. It was not long ago that I had the best office manager that I had ever had. She was always on time, her sales were phenomenal, her  attitude was perfect.</p>
<p>One day out of the blue she quit. This was completely overwhelming for me because there was no indication of any problem . After several years and even until today before I  saw this video on Monster Energy Drinks I was left without any solution why this had happened but now it&#039;s all so crystal clear.</p>
<p>As soon as I saw that Monster Energy Drinks was helping other small businesses the answer to my long sought after question of why the best office manager I ever had quit on me with no reason or explanation and the reality came rushing in.</p>
<p>I remember her starting to bring Monster Energy Drinks to work and she said they were a good pick up. It was not long after that she vanished. I remember that last Friday we were gathered in the main shop celebrating an awesome week of sales. When she left she said&#8230;.see you Monday.</p>
<p>Well on Monday when I arrived  to work there was a package in the drop box. I opened it and read her resignation. No clue, no idea, but now I know why. Probably just more help from my friends at monster energy drinks.</p>
<p>For Real! I give Monster Energy Drinks all the credit on that one.</p>
<p>Shouldn&#039;t every small business have  shenanigans pulled on them when they are struggling to <a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com">make money</a>?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-767" title="home business make money4" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/11/basics-of-starting-an-online-business-to-make-money/home-business-make-money4.jpg" alt="home business make money4" width="139" height="94" /></p>
<p>If you are a beginner, and want to build an online business, this might give you some direction.</p>
<p>The real fact is not everyone is cut out for owning their own business or even online business for that matter.</p>
<p>Here we go&#8230;&#8230;&#8230; and not necessarily in this order but we will go over them afterwords&#8230;..</p>
<ul>
<li>Product (what you are selling)</li>
<li>Market   (who is going to buy what you are selling)</li>
<li>Location (a web property for your potential customers to visit)</li>
<li>Advertising (how your customers will find your product)</li>
<li>Promotion (bringing the most visitors to your site)</li>
</ul>
<p>Making money online is more of a science than anything. It is actually much easier than having a location in a City somewhere because in that scenario you might have a limited market and online you basically have a world market depending on the type of product that you are selling.</p>
<p>When <a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com">building a successful business online</a> you want to find a market before you find a product. If you were going to sell <em>monkey butt covers </em>you should first research them to see how many people search for them and what kind of sales you might expect. That is why it is important to know your market before investing time and energy.</p>
<p>The other thing that is beneficial to selling online is that you can get customers that are directly interested in what you are selling by setting up your business correctly. In other words you don&#039;t have to sell anything to anybody. They just come to your site because that&#039;s what they were looking  to buy.</p>
<p>When searching for a market to sell too you will need to get an idea of how many searches there are per month for that type of product. As an example I will use the free Google Keyword Tool to demonstrate how to search for a market. But before I do that let&#039;s talk about products that you might like to sell.</p>
<p>There are all sorts of products to sell online and most every company that sells a product has an affiliate program to sell their products and pays a commission for each sale that you generate for them. This is really the best way to get started online because you don&#039;t have to have your own product and you don&#039;t have to invest in an inventory.</p>
<p>Most companies go through an affiliate broker to manage the sales of their products. Clickbank is one of these affiliate brokers and they manage thousands of different product . Most beneficial commission products are digital products and you will see much higher payouts on sales of these types of products.</p>
<p>You could probably expect 60-75% commission on a 97.00 sale of a digital product. That&#039;s a pretty good chunk of change if you were to make a sale or more a day from just promoting one product. There are all sorts of products and the sky is the limit depending on how hard you are willing to work.</p>
<p>Here we will finally go to the <a  target="_blank" href="https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal">Free Google Keyword Tool</a> and do a search for <em><strong>guitar scales</strong></em>.</p>
<p><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/11/basics-of-starting-an-online-business-to-make-money/home-business-make-money1.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-753" title="home business make money1"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-754" title="home business make money1" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/11/basics-of-starting-an-online-business-to-make-money/home-business-make-money1-300x237.png" alt="home business make money1" width="300" height="237" /></a></p>
<p>If you click on the picture it will enlarge and you will be able to see that there are 74000 global monthly searches for that one keyword. Please note that I selected Exact Match in the box on the right of the titles. This gives you a much better idea of the search traffic than Broad Match. There are also several other related  keywords that we can use to get traffic for our sales on a site that we build for this product if we find one. The work is just beginning let&#039;s go to Clickbank   and see what we can find for a product.</p>
<p><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/11/basics-of-starting-an-online-business-to-make-money/home-business-make-money2.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-753" title="home business make money2"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-757" title="home business make money2" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/11/basics-of-starting-an-online-business-to-make-money/home-business-make-money2-300x236.png" alt="home business make money2" width="300" height="236" /></a>Now here we are at Clickbank and I did a query search for the keyword guitar scales and these are the results of that search. These are the products that are in the top 10 of being promoted right now by affiliates. So now I want to go to Google search and see what my competition looks like on search.</p>
<p><a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/11/basics-of-starting-an-online-business-to-make-money/home-business-make-money3.png" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-753" title="home business make money3"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-760" title="home business make money3" src="http://dirkpoulsen.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/11/basics-of-starting-an-online-business-to-make-money/home-business-make-money3-300x185.png" alt="home business make money3" width="300" height="185" /></a></p>
<p>Alright we can go to these sites and see how they are set up and even determine what products they are selling. I am not going to get into the deep specifics of research in this post but I want to give you the general idea of what you are looking at starting out. You haven&#039;t even begun to start the work that is going to take place to get this project making money. But this is one that I would go after. It has the search volume and it has the products also that are available with reasonable commissions.</p>
<p>So far so good you have not had to spend any money yet so let&#039;s keep it this way. There are several places that you can go to get free hosting and website services. One is Blogger.com another is Wordpress.org. There is nothing wrong with using free blogging services. Just go to Google and type in make money online and you will see at least two blogger free blogs that rank in the top four most of the time.</p>
<p>Before you set up your blog or website I will suggest that you do a few things in advance. Even though you might not know much about how to set up a site to <a  href="http://dirkpoulsen.com">make money online</a> just think of it all like this&#8230;people type in what they are searching for online so how do the search engines know how to send the sites that are relevant to the front page of the results? Easy they have the keywords that were typed in located in their website titles and in their content pages.</p>
<p>I know this is fairly broad and vague information but be sure to have your targeted keywords in your site URL if at all possible and in your post titles too. Be sure to not over do it though. Now you have a web property or for the sake of this post you do so we can go to advertising mode.</p>
<p>You can pay for advertising or you can do free advertising. The difference is paid advertising brings instant traffic and free advertising takes lot&#039;s of work. I prefer the latter of the two. I don&#039;t mind doing the work that it takes to make money online because done right it turns into a very low maintenance passive income and it is very cost effective.</p>
<p>To promote a site by content is what I am suggesting here. Go to that keyword tool and pick out all the keywords that you think someone looking for that specific product would type into search so they could go and buy it. Then write a post of about 350 words for each keyword that you choose and publish them on your new site. Be sure to set it up with your link for the product. Make it look good.</p>
<p>The next step is promotion and this is where the real work starts. You are going to sign up for a few article directories and write more content about the specific keywords that you picked out. Then in the resource box you are going to leave a back link to your sites post that is a match for that keyword. You are going to do this countless times until you get that site ranking on the front page of search, then you will get the traffic, then you will get the conversion, then you will be making money online.</p>
<p>Cheers,</p>
<p>Dirk</p>

<p>Have you ever wanted to be like someone? Maybe Darren Rowse? You seemed to be so impressed with where you thought they were in terms of success (making money online and all that stuff)  that you blindly  followed their every tidbit of advice and read every word of prophecy, even signing up for their latest program that you think will take you from being a poor noob to riches.</p>

<p>So you want to be a <a target="_blank" href="http://makemoneyforbeginners.blogspot.com/2009/10/probloggercom-is-live-and-wants-your.html ">Problogger</a>?</p>
<p>Have you ever wanted to be like someone? Maybe Darren Rowse? You seemed to be so impressed with where you thought they were in terms of success (making money online and all that stuff)  that you blindly  followed their every tidbit of advice and read every word of prophecy, even signing up for their latest program that you think will take you from being a poor noob to riches.</p>
<p>If this sounds like you then you really should read&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..<a  target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://seoigniter.com/seo/make-money-online-reading-forums/">How to Make Money Reading Forums</a>&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;This will get you where you want to be.</p>
<p>It all  seems to be part of the learning curve and for most newbies these are the things that lead you to eventually figure out what you need to do in order to make money on the internet. Shamefully  it does not work for everyone because some people stay stuck in this  phase forever, don&#039;t let it be you!</p>
<p>You don&#039;t have to be popular to make money online. In fact you can make money online and not ever talk with anyone. Have you ever heard of social traffic? I am sure you have&#8230;&#8230;.. Social traffic and talking to people are about <em><strong>as far as you can get</strong></em> from making money online.</p>
<p>Now do not misunderstand me&#8230;&#8230;..having friends online will help your success but you do need the right friends when making money online if it is what you are online for. It is a give and take function&#8230;..I like to call it <a  target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethic_of_reciprocity">reciprocity</a>. If you don&#039;t know what this means then you can click the link back there and read the definition.</p>
<p>I am not going to give you a bull s**t line of stuff like Problogger.net&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..<a  target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.problogger.net/archives/2009/10/03/why-blogging-is-like-the-wizard-of-oz-and-theres-no-place-like-home-a-polemic-or-maybe-a-manifesto-for-all-the-red-shoe-bloggers/">Why Blogging is Like The Wizard of Oz and There’s No Place Like Home. A Polemic or Maybe a Manifesto. For all the Red Shoe Bloggers</a> or this other B.S.  <a  target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.problogger.net/archives/2009/09/25/don%E2%80%99t-be-a-greedy-blogger/"> ways to  not be a greedy blogger</a>.</p>
<p>If you have a blog already than you are already a Problogger even if you do not think so. There are some things that you need to learn but you need to know where to learn them from. I have a blog and I am not even a blogger let alone a Guru. Not only that  even though I have learned allot I still am not a techy guy when it comes to design etc.</p>
<p>So are you a ProBlogger? Well Hell Yes you are and if you don&#039;t have a blog go to my contact form and leave me a message and I will personally help you set up your first free blog and then you can get started!</p>
<p>Cheers!<br />
Dirk</p>
<p>P.S. I know why you are here&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.to learn how to make money online.</p>
