So, the action plan is in full swing now and I’ve added to it and taken away from it as required. The funny thing is how easy it has been to keep it in mind. By that I mean I know when I’m straying from the plan and I know when it’s influencing my decisions and stopping me going off on too much of a tangent.
One of the strategies that I’ve added to my action plan, is to put aside some time 2-3 times a week creating backlinks. I spent some money in the Warrior Special Offer on a plan that should gain, what has become my main site, a ton of backlinks.
But however I get them, I’m in hot pursuit of them. Here is my backlink foray:
- Posting comments to blogs in my niche! Checking on the 20 blog comments that I did ten days ago, the comments have all been approved! So no spammy comments.
- Forum marketing. I’m not particularly hot on this because I kinna feel all dirty when I rock up in a forum, start answering questions and then some time later produce a signature with my site on it!
- Article marketing! Still writing those articles, several a day, and submitting them.
- I’ve also been submitting my blog to a ton of blog directories, which takes time and is perhaps something I should seriously consider outsourcing!
- Leaving/rating articles in EzineArticles is also a good source, though again, I’m careful to read the article and I have a genuine comment.
- Twitter! You either love it or hate it!
- Link exchange! Find this tricky and though I’ve tried it, I’ve only ever got 2 links this way
- Yahoo Answers. I really enjoy that.
Suffice to say, I’m backlinking like crazy and just like the article writing, it is money in the bank!
Well I’ve been getting nudges for a week or two about Mike Filsame’s Butterfly Reports Viral Marketing site and finally decided to join. I took a look and wasn’t really surprised that Mr Filsame would have his name all over this, pretty good. Yeah there have been other Viral Marketing tools launched, but the difference with this one is that it has an entry level that is FREE CLICK Here To Join!
How it works is that you can submitt your reports and ebooks and once you generate an affiliate link from Clickbank, Butterfly Reports and Paydotcom, your ebook is populated with those links! Great I say! Plus other website owners can select your report and off goes your report, populate it with their affiliate links and off goes your report out into the world bringing you traffic.
With the free entry you can upload one report per month and you can download one report per month. You can upgrade to the Platinum level as you’re signing up and you should recognise that if you don’t upgrade then and there, then you will not see Platinum at that price again. Might be worth the initial upgrade then if you can run to it! Plus I believe free entry level means that when you populate an ebook with your aff links it is only populated with 25% of your affiliate links, whereas Platinum will give you 100%.
The other great thing about this site is that the subject catagories for the ebooks are not limited to Internet Marketing, so if your niche is Health & Fitness, Home & Family etc. then you’ll find those subjects listed. However, since the site isn’t even a week old yet, it doesn’t currently have a great deal of reports under any heading, but this is Mr F we’re talking about, so pretty much, that won’t last for long. I say get in at ground level and do it now! CLICK HERE for entry to Butterfly Reports!
