Bloggers Not List Building

The majority of bloggers are concerned about their RSS feed, their Technorati ranking, and their backlinks to obtain a great pagerank and receive potential traffic from the search engines. However, the one thing that I keep noticing is that bloggers are not list building. I come across many website owners as well who are not doing this. This is just as important as the above-mentioned factors if you plan to earn money online for the long-term.

As you know, not every reader of your blog or website is coming to take you up on your offer. It is important to offer that reader something other than asking them to sign for your RSS feed, give you a Digg, etc. in order to stay in contact with them. If you have an autoresponder embedded into your site, you can offer your readers a free eBook, a free sample, free EntreCards, etc. in order to have them submit their information to you. This is list building, and by doing so you are able to send out a newsletter or a HOT PRODUCT announcement to your subscribers. This is a great way to do business with people that would have exited your site and never looked back.

The free report I offer on this blog is actually a 13-page report that is delivered to each subscriber one page at a time over the course of 20 days. I can tell the autoresponder when to deliver and who to deliver to. I can use my WYSIWYG editor to create some great-looking sales letters. I am able to transfer subscribers from one autoresponder to another. If you are not into the appearance of an autoresponder setup on your site, you can also have people subscribe via e-mail. This is what mine would look like if I used it here anabella.DEFAULT@info.trafficwave.net

I am also able to use my autoresponder for FREE. I pay nothing for it due to the compensation program at TrafficWave. Most autoresponder programs only offer a commission program to their members, but TrafficWave offers much more so that you can actually make a long-term residual income. Many just use the TW tools and pay $17.95 a month for them and others promote them to partake in the earning opportunity.

If you are a blogger that would like to trial an autoresponder, I can offer you a free trial with the TrafficWave program. TW not only offers multiple autoresponders and WYSIWYG editor for sales letters. It also offers free ad tracking, free hosted lead capture pages, free banner advertising, and a free FFA (free for all) advertising page for you to use. It is very easy to use. To get the autoresponder embedded into this blog, all I did was copy and paste a code that TrafficWave provided me and I made sure my sales letters were all set up should anybody want my free report.

As I said above, I can offer you a free trial with the TrafficWave program for 30 days. If you do not like it and feel it is not for you, you simple unsubscribe and you are done with it. Bloggers need to list build in order to earn more in less time. I hope you will take advantage of this opportunity to play around with these tools and see for yourself what they can do for your online success.

If you CLICK HERE you will see a listing of the TrafficWave autoresponder features. If you scroll down to the bottom of the page, you can click on the 30-day free trial button and get yourself set up. This doesn't cost you anything and you will have free access to the TW tools.

Freebie Force Mania

Freebie Force Mania is breaking out. Since the re-launch of this program earlier this year, more and more people are taking interest in it. Why? Because it is THE program that is appropriate for today's economic situation. Almost everybody I know is trying to save money. If you couple that need with the desire to make additional income, you have a winner program. Enter Freebie Force.

One of my internet marketing friends is so hyped up about the program that she has actually made a decal for her car. She wants to be one of the first to introduce the program to her community, and she is on the right track. Freebie Force has recently released its second infomercial. This program will slowing be making its way into numerous communities and towns. Wouldn't you like to be the first to introduce it around your area? I sure would, and that is exactly what I am going to do. The fact that this program can be promoted online and offline is also an added benefit. How many times have you participated in a program and were locked into strictly marketing it online? Not with Freebie Force.

This save and earn program is not one to be ignored. Top internet marketer Rachel Long recently joined the program and has also been hit with Freebie Force mania. She has hit the leaderboard by sharing this program with over 600 people so far. Now, I am not a Rachel Long and I don't think too many other people are either, but the fact that this program has caught this woman's attention has got to make you sit up and want to look at it. Another top internet marketer, Val Underhill, has also got the fever. If the top internet marketers are getting involved with this program, that has to be telling you something.

Freebie Force Mania is becoming rampant. It may be time for you to catch the fever and join this explosive save and earn program by CLICKING HERE and taking a tour. Those that join for free are pre-enrollees and are able to download the Freebie Force toolbar, which entitles them to a freebie each week. Those that want to join this program, pay $9.95 via CC monthly. Is it worth it? I think so. I am saving more than I am paying out and earning some money too. You cannot go wrong with Freebie Force.

TrafficWave Profits Review

TrafficWave Profits is a program created by Valerie Underhill. This is the second program she has created, her original being the popular Marketing Pond. I have been online for a year now, and it is my opinion that Valerie Underhill is one of the most honest, shoot straight from the hip marketers you will ever come upon. The TrafficWave Profits program is free to join. In fact, all of Val Underhill's programs are free. She never charges you a penny.

I began following Val Underhill when I signed up for her
Marketing Pond program. You will be amazed with the information she reveals about online business for FREE. She just doesn't give you a little taste; she gives it all to you. She hides nothing and she knows so much. She is literally a library of knowledge in terms of online money making.

One thing I remember Val Underhill speaking to is the importance of all marketers having a core and that you extend out from that core. So what is a core? She has done that for you with her programs because she not only talks about, she creates it for you. Both the TrafficWave Profits and Marketing Pond programs are cores to programs Val has discovered online to be legit businesses. I know that every program in these core programs pays and I know that she knows the owner of these programs. This woman does not like to promote crap. She is steadfast and true to online business and really wants to help people succeed.

Val's first core program, Marketing Pond, consists of all free-to-join programs with the exception of one, and her second core program, TrafficWave Profits consists of core programs that charge a nominal fee. Now Val does not leave you high and dry when you join either one of her programs. She jam packs each one with information you need to know on how to succeed. It is up to you if you want to join a program in her core or not. There is never any fee for the information or the marketing materials she provides to you.

She has been online for a long time. She talks about when downline clubs use to be free and how they have evolved over time. She talks about traffic exchanges and how some are not what they appear to be. She really gives you the insider's scoop to some of the things you could encounter online. Val Underhill not only educates but enlightens. She knows her stuff, and I highly recommend her programs to anybody who wants to know more about making money online. Best of all, both these programs are FREE. If you want to learn from an expert, you need to listen to what Val Underhill has to say. Both the TrafficWave Profit and Marketing Pond programs cross reference each other in her core's, so if you want to learn from Val, you should start with her first program, Marketing Pond, and then move on TrafficWave Profits.

Golden Panda and ASD Cash Generator Under Investigation

Last week it was announced that the Golden Panda Ad Builder and the ASD Cash Generator programs are temporarily closed because they are being investigated by the Attorney General's office. As of this writing, both websites have been taken down, with the Golden Panda website updating a news update post. All assets have been frozen; no funds can be moved in or out of any accounts.

The Golden Panda website is posting a news update and it appears they are trying to hold conference calls with members to advise them of current events. ASD Cash Generator had sent out an e-mail the other day advising members the reason for the investigation. They report that a member had filed a complaint with the Attorney General's office as they had not received their payment as quickly as they would have liked. They go on to advise that business will resume once the investigation has been completed and do not anticipate a prolonged downtime.

The Golden Panda Ad Builder program has only been in business for 2 weeks. It has had high activity prior to launching, which potential participants waiting to obtain memberships with money in hand. I believe the Attorney General's office has investigated the ASD Cash Generator before and did not see any problems as far as I know. I would rather have these programs investigated now versus later before more and more people begin depositing funds. I am hopeful both programs will be without problems and will have their doors open for business once again shortly.
