I was contacted by Marcus Hochstadt recently. He’s having a party to celebrate the day his blog breaking the Top 50K rank, and asking my participation and sponsorship. I was excited about it :) Unfortunately Alexa changed their ranking algorithm just few days after that.

He’s throwing the party nevertheless.

Last time I got extra $125 from TrialPay, now it’s $131.50. Yeah baby! That’s what I’m talking about.

It’s simply fantastic. If you have a digital product to sell, I urge you to give TrialPay a try. And they recently introduce an affiliate system, where other people can promote and sell your product for a little bit of commission. Really kewl!

I also made a few sales from a few of my internet stores. Yes! I have several internet stores selling various products. I started those internet stores early this year and now I’m seeing the result :) Will let you guys know more on this later.


Guess what? I bought a Sony Vaio today! I’ve been saving my extra money that I got from my internet business and finally today… I bought my dream laptop :)

My Sony Vaio

Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor U7700 (1.33 GHz)
2GB Ram, 120GB HDD
11.1″ Clear Bright High Color LCD
Genuine Windows Vista®
Color: Ruby Red
Weight: 1.2kg

I’m so excited!

Oh by the way, got my 5th Text Link Ads sold a few days ago on my Healthy Lifestyle Blogzine :) Two sales from Ultimate Supertips, and a few Page Peel Ads sales. I also did a Pay Per Post opp for $9 yesterday.

My next target is a multimedia projector :)


There are 4 Text Link Ads on my health blog. And for March, I received $25.47 out of them.

And the blog got upgrade to PR2 again! How weird…

Oh I’m glad that I joined Text Link Ads. Free monthly money for me :)


On March 18, 2008, I received an email that reads “An Advertiser has Purchased a Review - Response Required” as the subject. Guess what? An advertiser actually interested in me, giving their product a review. It’s not on this blog though. It’s for my other blog. My health related blog. They actually agreed on $75 for the review!

I accept immediately. Do some research about the subject, and start doing my article. It’s about herbal tea :) I receive my payment on March 27, 2008.

This is made possible by SponsoredReviews. If you have a good blog with good content, consider joining this service. You can make some extra money from it. And if you are an advertiser wanting to promote your website or products, you can also join this service.

You read that right.

I’ve told Google to push off.

Stop spidering me.

I no longer want my online business to depend on its ever changing whims as to what makes a good or bad ranking.

I don’t want to spend time collecting thousands of backward links then find that they are probably worthless because the anchor text does not contain a suitable keyword, or the site does not have sufficient page rank, or whatever the latest algorithm is.

I don’t want to buy expensive cloaking tools and run the risk of penalization.

I don’t want to be bothered about whether a domain has a static or dynamic IP address or have to use different hosts to make a network of minisites.

What’s that you say ? You don’t need fancy tricks - just provide good relevant content.

My answer ?

Nonsense.

I have a huge content site devoted solely to ClickBank, the only one of its kind.

If you wanted to find the most relevant content for a search on the keyword ‘ClickBank’ don’t you think that would be at the top ?

Well Google used to agree with you.

It was ranked number 2, with only ClickBank.com itself at number one.

Today it is ranked … wait for it … number 426.

It is beaten out of sight by sites which have nothing to do with ClickBank but happen to mention that keyword once.

I asked a search engine expert about this and he suggested that it was due to keyword density, in other words too many mentions of the word ClickBank.

Well that has to be the case - the site is after all a ‘Complete Guide to ClickBank’

His advice - try replacing the word ClickBank occasionally e.g. use ‘CB’.

No way.

That was the last straw and became the inspiration for me to develop a revolutionary approach to getting traffic.

It led to me being called ‘The Guru who said goodbye to Google’ in the marketing forums.

And this new approach ?

It uses some of the fundamental pillars of Internet marketing that you already know - techniques which will never become obsolete.

But they are combined together in a new way and with a viral twist that you won’t have seen before.

It includes giving out free information in a certain way and I show you how exactly in my book, The Ultimate SuperTip.
