Well it’s been a couple weeks since my last update post …so much for this being a weekly thing lol

It seems like  I never seem to have enough time to do all I want to do.. but hopefully that will change after I start following the advice I got from reading Sunny Suggs ebook All About Time Management

What’s Hot

Well unless you are absolutely brand new to Internet Marketing you probably already heard a 1000 times  "the money is in the list". Well I’m going to tell you that’s not exactly the truth….A list  is really just a bunch of names and emails. Names and emails don’t make you any money. 

A very well known and very true statistic that has been shared in business circles for years…"It will take 7-12 exposures to your product offering (in some capacity) before 99% of your potential customers will take action and make a purchase or take the action that you want them to"  The real truth is "the money is in following up with your list."

Now I have literally spent $1000’s on List Building products over the years. Many of these dollars were very well spent but there was almost always one fatal flaw with almost all of these list building products. They were almost always very good at teaching you methods to get people on your list . But they usually gave very little to no info on how to follow up with your freshly built list and how turn those names and emails into cold hard cash.

So when I heard there was a new product on the market called Follow Up To Fortunes that would teach me more about the art of following up with your list and making money …I had to check it out.  What I got for my purchase was a manual that was over 90 pages long.  Now with  a manual that long I was expecting alot of fluff..but I was pleasently surprised with information I got from the manual. The manual teaches you how to write follow up campigns. It shows you how to structure your campaigns for maximum profits. Most importantly it show want you need to know to be able to constantly improve your results with your follow up series.  In my opinion  Follow Up To Fortunes is the complete A-Z guide to profitng with follow up marketing

I personnaly feel like I will being using the information I got from this manual for years to come in my own marketing. The best part about Follow Up To Fortunes  is the price. You can pickup the 96 page manual for under $10. Which is insane as far I am concerned. The information provided can make you $1000’s if you you actually use the information in your own marketing.

So if you need to improve your followup skills I highly suggest checking out Follow Up To Fortunes Here

Top Traffic Exchange of the Week

In this section I reveal my top traffic exchange of the week based on my tracking results from Hits Connect and my personal opinion. My top Traffic Exchange of the week  is Hits Booster Pro

http://www.hitsboosterpro.com/?rid=4137

Hits Booster Pro is still a fairly new traffic exchange. Yet it has been skyrocketing up the 20 lists at Affiliate Funnel and Traffic Hoopla. Not only is Hits Booster Pro really popular it is producing great results. The best part about Hits Booster Pro is you get a 7 day upgrade when you join as free member. All you to do is join Hits Booster Pro and then surf 25 sites to activate your account and you will upgraded for 7 days to and be able to earn a ton of extra traffic.

Top Safelist of of the Week

In this section I reveal my top safelist of the week based on my tracking results from Hits Connect and my personal opinion. My top Safelist/List Builder of the week is Elite Safelist

http://elitesafelist.com/s.php?mike720

What I really like about Elite Safelist is even though there are quite a few safelists that have more members. There are only a few safelists that come close to giving me the results that Elite Safelist does.  Another great thing about Elite Safelist  is it is actually growing in size. While with quite a few safelists they seem to be shrinking in size. Personally I want to use a safelist that is growing in size and adding new members. New members = new eyeballs seeing my ads.

Do you want to know one of the most profitable and easiest ways to make money online?

It’s from having  bonus ads on your thank you and download pages after people sign up to your mailing list or purchase one your products.  

I have 2-3 offers on each my thank you and download pages and it works great. I get commisions every single month using this method.

Here is some proof

That  is a screen capture of my back office at Affiliate Funnel showing my last 30 referrals. Of those 30 referrals…90% of them came from one of my thank you or download pages. I have similar stats in dozens of free to join programs like Affiliate Funnel.

Yes, these programs are usually free to join but they usually have very high converting OTO’s and upgrades. And let me tell you these OTO’s earn me quite a few pennies every month.The best part I earn most of these back end commissions from my subscribers before I even have to send them one email advertisement and in many cases I earn cash from my subscribers even before they confirm their email addresses.  

It also seems like I’m not the only one that loves these pages. I can’t even remember the last time I didn’t see at least one of these ads on peoples thank you and/or download pages or even login pages. It seems like every big name marketer uses them these days. Simply put these bonus type ads work.

However creating your own thank you pages can often take hours. Especially if your like me and want them to look perfect.  And I absolutely hate designing pages. I don’t know about you, it just doesn’t come that easy for me ..never mind all the html coding you have to do to get the page look right yuck…. 

And if you have dozens of pages to set up, well it could take... Formatting, checking the links etc etc – it takes time but it does pay off. Because as once you set it up and you can just forget about it. Then you just sit back watch the commissions keep rolling in.

So when I heard that Jeff Dedrick created a new program called Instant Bonus Page that would allow me to create high converting download pages with a few points and clicks (Yay no designing and no html)  I had to check it out…  I just had to try it… and when I heard was free to join I rushed to the signup link.  

Here are the results of my first attempt at trying Instant Bonus Page  to create a custom download page

==> http://www.yourdownloadandgifts.com/freereportjackpot

This new software does what it says it does. I don’t only think it delivers, I think it over delivers. I honestly think it’s insane how much Jeff Dedrick is giving away for free with Instant Bonus Page. He makes it very easy to create bonus pages. Heck, I created the above page in just under five minutes with out having to do any html woohoo. It would of been much quicker but, I was taking screen captures at the same time. So give me a break OK.

Now, I don’t know about you but it seems like I have been getting emails from everyone and their grandmas their  cousins and neighbours promoting Instant Bonus Page. So you may already joined and, you may already know just how powerful this simple software is.

But if you haven’t joined then I want to show you just how powerful this simple to use software is. By showing you how easily I created the above page.  With t Instant Bonus Page Review. Yes, there are 16 steps to follow to create your own bonus page but,  most these steps involve making a selection and then clicking a button. If I can do it in under five minutes…trust me then anyone can.

Step 1  Create A Title

Step 2 Choose The Url For Your Page

The next step involves choosing the url for your page. Simply select the URL you want to use and then fill in the box with the extension you want to use and then click save.

Step 3  Add your meta information

This next step is optional depending on how you are using your bonus page. If you want your page to get picked up by the search engines you would select public here . Up will pop up a box that lets you enter your meta description. Along with a box for meta keywords. If you want your page to stay private (i.e you are creating a download page for one your products.) you would select private in the box above and the click save.

Step 4  Choose Your Template

This is step is simple just pick the design for your page. There are several options available. You can even upload your own custom header and footer if you want your bonus page to look like the rest of your website. Once you select the template of your choice click save.

Step 5 Choose Your Main Headline

The next step is to create a headline. Use one of the pre written ones or right your own custom headline. Once you have made your selection click save.

Step 6 Add Your Video From YouTube

You will notice that this step is in red. This means it is only available to upgraded members. If you upgrade and want to add a custom video greeting to your visitors. You can easily just add your embed code for your video. Jeff Dedrick even has a couple pre made videos you can use. 

Step 7  Upload Your Product And Its Cover

Next you can upload your product and its cover (if you have one). All you have to do is make sure your cover and product fall under the maximum limit. It takes a couple of clicks to upload your product from your harddrive. Once your done just click save and move on to the next step.

Step 8 Upload Your Second Product And Its Cover

Again this option is only for upgraded members. But if you have a second product you want on your page you can upload it as well.

Step 9 Choose the Look of Your Bonus Boxes

Now we start designing your bonus boxes. In this step you simply decide the look of your border. Once you make your selection just click save.

Step 10  Choose Your Bonus Boxes

 Instant Bonus Page currently has boxes for 30 programs all which can be encoded with your affiliate links. In this section you can select up to six bonus boxes. Honestly you don’t want anymore then that as it would be ioverkill. Actually normally on my pages I only normally put 2 of these ads. Once you picked your ads, click save.

Step 11 Arrange Your Boxes 

In this step you can arrange the order your boxes appear on your page. Simply  click the up and down arrows. Once you have order you like click save.

Step 12 Choose Your Reccomended Resource Boxes

Again this step is only for upgraded members.  These are basically ad boxes for popular clickbank products with your clickbank id embedded in them. Simply add or two of these boxes onto your page and you can earn clickbank comissions basically on autopilot.

Step 13 Arrange Your Reccomended Resource Boxes

This step is to arrange the order of your resource boxes. Once You have an order you like click save.

Step 14 Upload Your Picture, Signature and Other Images

This next step is for branding purposes you can upload your image or logo. You can also add your name to your bonus page. This is very important as you want your  bonus page to be your page. 

Step 15 Make Money Branding Your Page. 

This step is simply if want to add a link on your bonus page  to your  Instant Bonus Page affiliate page.

Step 16 Add Your Contact Information

In this last step you can add in a link to either your helpdesk or your contact email.

Once your done the last step click the "Click Here to Continue" button and you will end up with something like this. Note you get PLR to the "Free Report Jackpot" along with a few other bonuses

It really is that simple..in a few steps  you can have your own profit pulling bonus page.

Now for the most part I use these pages for download and thank you pages for my subscribers. But there are plenty other ways you can use these pages to make money. Jeff Dedrick created this video to showyou  a few ways to make money with your newly created bonus pages. There’s even a training area inside the Instant Bonus Page members area showing you how to get more traffic to your sites.

Creating custom bonus pages is only one of the features that you get with your free Instant Bonus Page membership. and I could go on and on about these features. But at this point it is probably best to send you to the website and let you see these features for yourself.

Yes there is an OTO upgrade option and I highly suggest you give it a serious look. One of the upgrade features is the ability to create custom squeeze /optin pages on the fly. Now that’s valuable. Well enough of my blabbing here is the sign up link
