Bestselling books on internet biz/marketing

Few days ago, I bought another book from list of bestselling books on internet biz/marketing category. You can check the list at amazon. The title of the book is The E-Code.

But I ordered the book locally at MPH. They claimed to send the book within 2-4 weeks but I received the book in just 2 days! Very fast service. The courier cost is just about RM5 and is waived if you order more than RM80 in value. (promoting MPH again)
The ideas and tips presented in that book is very very interesting and some of them I’ve never tought of. Most of the techniques in that book reveals the proven techniques the super internet marketers use to successfully promote their online business and programs.

Some of the techniques are on how to use opt-in list, how to get people subscribe to your list, how to get massive and continous traffic to your site, how to multiple your sales revenue etc etc.

I give 4 out of 5 stars to this book and highly recommend it to those who are serious in making big bucks online.

Would like to buy another book soon after finish reading and implementing the techniques in this book.

How to check your ranking in Google search engine?

Do you know what is your current ranking in Google for your website for a given keyword? I love this tool rank detective. It is simple and fast but limited to get your rank only in Google. Not in other search engine.
But for me, if you are ranked high in Google, there is high possibility your website will be ranked high in other search engines especially MSN.

Recently I checked my latest project for malaysia classifieds or iklan percuma for the keyword “Iklan Percuma Malaysia” and it’s ranked #1 in Google and MSN. You can see the result here – for google and MSN.

Now I’m concentrating on getting higher ranking for other hot keywords. Anyway, I got many traffics come directly to individual ads too. Most of the visitors are coming from search engine and that is what I want and that is how it should be.
I’m targeting unique visitors to reach 1000 per month in another few months.

My Malaysia Property website – hartanah.net is now getting more than 6000 unique visitors per month sometimes can reach up to 8000 visitors. You can view the stats below. (but not updated to the current month).

So what you need to do to rank high? OK simple. but it’s not an overnight job. There are lots of steps to follow but below are the most important steps among them.

  • Get a domain name that have your keyword in it
  • Name your file with keyword on it
  • Name you page title that have keyword on it
  • Let your page header be in heading 1

    and heading 2

  • Get as many links to your website. But prioritize to quality websites that have high PR (more than 3) and if possible that are related to your website.
  • For content, you can repeat the keywords few times. But make sure you don’t over do it. You can also use formatting like italics, bold and underline for your keywords.

So start implement it on your site now. Because I’m sure you will see this tips everywhere on the net but your website still not ranked well in the search engine. Why? Because you do not take any ACTION. That was what I did before ๐Ÿ™‚ Good luck!

Buying physical book online

Buying e-books online has become a trend to internet society especially in US. It is fast and easy. But sometimes, it is costly and not handy (you cannot bring your e-book if you are not carrying or having your computer with you).

You can get a physical book for maybe half of the e-book price. Some of popular author wrote their books in both formats – physical book and e-book.

I’ve just looked around MPH portal (maybe this is the Amazon for Malaysia without the affiliate program.. hehe) for price of some books I would like to purchase (few are from US). The price is no more than RM100 for each. Quite cheap. If you buy an e-book the price usually no less than US47 (about RM170) or you can get it for half the price if you buy from your own affiliate link. That is what I did if I purchase e-book online.
Here are few important things you need to know when purchasing physical books online

  • Payment via credit card (the fastest) or online banking
  • Courier to your doorstep within 2 weeks time
  • Return policy – within 7 days
  • Courier charge is waived if your purchase value is more than RM80 (for West Malaysia)

Now I want to register and place my order. I will get my books in 2 weeks time. Hmm.. maybe that’s why people love to purchase e-book. They get it immediately after they pay. Yep, most people can’t wait if they really really want something.

Buy before you sell.

This is one good tip for affiliates. All of us want to make money. But are we sensitive enough to think about the buyers? Or we just want to make money? That’s it.

Rosalind Gardner said in her newsletter about be honest on what you say. How to be honest? Tell what you know and don’t lie. If you want to sell an e-book, try to purchase it first then write an honest review about it.

If people like it, they will buy it. The most important thing is if people like YOU then they will buy it through your affiliate link.

So if possible, buy before you sell. Write an honest review about the products and make your customer satisfied buying the products that YOU recommend.

Google PR10 websites

After google did revise its index few weeks ago, there are few websites that get the highest PR10. Some of them are

  • adobe.com
  • apple.com
  • macromedia.com
  • nasa.gov
  • blogger.com
  • whitehouse.gov
  • statcounter.com
  • and of course google.com itself ๐Ÿ™‚

The interesting part is the statcounter.com. If you are looking for stats counter for your website or blog, maybe you can try statcounter.com. Me myself haven’t try it yet. But will do some other day.

Why some people get rich?

Went to a seminar today (some sort of training of trainers).

A quick share on the motivational part. Why some people do get rich and most of us don’t? You will only be given (anything, responsiblility, money etc) when only you are prepared for it and able to handle it.

So what does it mean? It means, you have to struggle and try to improve yourself continously in order for you to achieve more. No matter you talk about money or anything.

What you need to do then? Always search ways to improve yourself and prepare for more. More responsibilities, more risk, more contacts, more knowledge and you’ll be getting more of what you want.

iklan101.com is up and running

At last I managed to finish up the classifieds portal iklan101.com (beta version). Some of the advantages of this classifieds are

  • No registration required to post ad
  • Immediate ads appearance
  • Search engine friendly (still working on it)
  • Simple and easy navigation

Will further enhance the application to make it smarter than other classifieds apps. Hope so. Just have a visit on the classifieds portal iklan101.com and revisit it in this few weeks since I will make continous update on it until all features planned are there.

Also visit my previous Property Listing website – Hartanah.Net

Stop reading. Start doing.

So many writers. So many information on the internet. Sometimes you don’t even know which one to follow which one not. And most of them you are not doing anything about the info. We are facing the too many info syndrom.
I don’t know how much of my time spent reading other people’s articles, blogs, forums, websites, e-books etc to gain knowledge on internet marketing/business. Several of my online projects are pending and I’ve to focus to finish them up as soon as I can. Then I need to proceed with my planned projects.
All I need to have are quality time and discipline to finish all the projects and forget about them for a while then.
