The above product actually started off as a Warrior Special Offer (WSO), which unfortunately is no longer available. It was hugely popular, with tons of Warriors posting testimonials and positive feedback on the thread.

I’ve read it and think a lot of people will find it a great help, especially if you are struggling to make any decent money via the internet.

I recently came across a useful free tool for creating RSS feeds which I think you’ll find very useful.

First off, the great thing about RSS feeds is that you can use them to syndicate other people’s content on your websites. This is a great way of adding fresh new content to your websites, that’s on target and regularly updated.

One drawback is that every item in the feed contains a link, which could potentially take visitors away from your site. It’s a bit of a trade off, just like when you publish other people’s articles on your website.

Here’s where this new tool makes adding an RSS feed much more attractive and profitable for you…

You can create custom feeds, where every link in the feed contains your affiliate link, and takes the visitor directly to a product that is directly related to the content of your site.

Sound cool to you?

RSS Feed Generator is set up to work with many different feed sources, but the key ones that will make you money are ClickBank, eBay and Amazon.

• You just select which feed you want to create, so for example we say ClickBank.
• You enter your clickBank nickname.
• You enter up to 10 different keywords
• Hey presto, you are presented with your own customized feed for each keyword you entered.

There’s even an RSS feed conveter tool linked to on the top menu. Enter your new feed here, and it creates the web page code for you, which you just copy and paste into your web pages.

You can add these feeds to static web pages, or to dynamic pages like blogs. This is a cool free tool and well worth checking out:

The international currency online is ‘US Dollars’, and the international language is ‘US English’. That’s because the US has the greatest number of English speaking people.

It’s hard to think of a country like the UK as a niche market, and in a broad sense it’s obviously not. But if you have already identified a niche market you want to target, what if you broke that down even further by concentrating on people living in a specific country for that niche.

Virtually all the top Internet marketing guru’s tell you to sell your niche information products in US Dollars, and target your marketing to that audience, because that’s the biggest chunk of the market.

Well, I want you to consider another alternative. Let’s imagine that I am looking to buy an information product, to help me to make money from buying and selling houses.

I live in the UK so which of these two products am I ‘MUCH’ more likely to buy?

Product A.

• The website has a ‘.com’ domain name.
• The sales page is written in US English, and use phrases that are familiar to people living in the US, like ‘Real estate’.
• It talks about taxes and processes that are followed in the US.
• The ebook is being sold in US Dollars.
• The audio message on the sales page has an American accent.
• The contact information has a US phone number and a US address.

Product B.

• The website has a ‘.co.uk’ domain name.
• The sales page is written in UK English, and use phrases that are familiar to people living in the UK, like ‘estate agents’.
• It talks about taxes, stamp duty, solicitors and processes that are followed in the UK.
• The ebook is being sold in UK pounds.
• The audio message on the sales page has a British accent.
• The contact information has a UK phone number and a UK address.

Now they are just some of the basics, but product B would be overwhelmingly more appealing to me as a buyer in the UK.

For many reasons, but here’s just a few:

• I would feel more comfortable buying from someone in my own country than abroad.
• If I needed support I would be happy to ring a UK support phone number, but would be unlikely to call one in the US.
• The accent and language is more familiar to me, and I’m able to identify with the speaker more than the one with a US accent.
• With product A, I would be half expecting to be given some tips and resources that would only be useful to me if I lived in the US. But with product B, I would be expecting ‘all’ the resources and tips to be available and potentially useful to me.

The information in both ebooks could be virtually identical. But product B is being packaged, presented and sold to me in a way that is far more appealing.

Do you see the opportunities here?

Many niche information products are trying to be all things to all people, and use the same sales pitch, and sell the same information to people in every country.

How about adapting the product and marketing to target people in a specific country? Whether it be to the UK market or which ever country you happen to live in. Although the size of the potential market will be much smaller, your product will stand out because it will be tailored specifically for people in that country.

• If you live in the US, maybe consider outsourcing to UK ghostwriters, audio speakers with a UK accent etc, to create and market a UK specific product.
• If you don’t sell your own products, maybe consider setting up a website to target UK consumers. Promoting UK products and resources as an affiliate.

Did you know that in the UK, we spend more money per head of population on eBay, than in any other country? There’s money being spent here, believe me. 

With the Pound being so strong against the Dollar at the moment, this is another great reason to consider marketing specifically to the UK, and sell in £’s.

When I first started my blog I wrote about the benefits of submitting your blog to blog and rss feed directories. You can read that post again here. In that post I recommended an automated software program called RSS Submit, which I still use now.

Submitting your blog and RSS feeds to directories gives you free exposure and backlinks, and can be a fast way to help get your blog indexed and noticed.

RSS Submit is a very handy bit of software, but I recently came across a free alternative to that, which might appeal to you if you are on a tight budget.

Submit ‘em now is a free plugin for the Firefox browser. I don’t know if you use Firefox for browsing, but even if you don’t it’s worth having it installed, just to use some of the free plugins like this one I’m telling about.

Once you’ve installed the ‘Submit em now’ plugin, you start a new project for each blog or RSS feed. You fill out out the details of your blog etc like address, feed link, description, keywords etc. Then click on ‘next url’ and Submit em now takes you to the submission page for each blog/rss directory in turn.

The plugin uses a database of about 100 directories, so it’s pretty extensive. 

The great part is that it pre-populates their submission forms automatically, using the info you originally typed in when you set up each submission project.

This really helps you speed up this important but otherwise boring and time consuming prossess. If you want complete automation then RSS Submit is still the option for you, but Submit ‘em now is a great free alternative that will still save you a lot of time.

I hope you found this useful,

Just imagine…If you were able to write unique, informative and interesting articles, 400-600 words on any keyword or niche topic you choose, in less than 30 minutes…

Even if you know absolutely nothing about the topic you are writing about!

Wouldn’t this be a really useful skill to have?

You bet it would!

Writing, publishing and creating unique articles is a great way to drive traffic to your websites. 

The problem is; writing articles is hard work and it takes a lot of time and effort. It’s even harder if you don’t know anything about the topic you are writing about.

Now the whole process of writing articles just got a whole lot easier, thanks to a new course on article speed writing.

If you publish your own blog, newsletter or content sites you will find this incredibly helpful. Andrew breaks everything down into an extremely simple formula, that’s very easy to follow and replicate.

You can also use the same formula to re-write private label articles in 10 minutes. 

This is the best, no fluff guide I’ve read on how to write articles very quickly, and it gets two big thumbs up from me.

Do you keep having trouble getting a project finished or even started?  If so, you might find this process useful, it has definitely helped me…

I don’t know about you, but when I used to work for someone else, I didn’t have a problem getting things done. I was given a job or a project to get done within a certain time frame…and it would get done!

Now that I work for myself, I’m not tied to someone else’s deadlines or expectations. This has benefits but also drawbacks, because it’s easy to jump from one project idea to the next without getting anything done.

List All The Tasks You Need To Do

To help overcome this problem I give myself a list of tasks to get done, and put a realistic but fairly tight deadline to each one.

I’ll create an Excel spreadsheet for each project and list down all the things I need to do to get a new product and or website online and ready.

Next to each task I’ll put my time deadline, then a box where I’ll put a ‘Yes’ in when it’s done. At the end I’ll also write in ‘on time’ or how long I missed the deadline by.

This helps me to focus a bit better, and when I see too many missed deadlines it makes me try a bit harder, to get the next ones in on time. 

Once the site is up and running, I’ll also list down the marketing tasks that I will be doing on-going, so I can keep tabs on what I need to do.

A System You Can Repeat Over and Over…

The good thing about creating these lists is that it helps you create a system you can duplicate.

For example, lets say you want to set up a new website for a content site, or maybe a private label ebook you want to sell.

The process for setting up and marketing a site for one niche is likely to be very similar for most other markets. If you list down all the tasks you need to do with your first site, you can then use the exact same process to set up the next one even faster.

If you look back at what you’ve done, you could probably move a few things in a different order to get things done faster, or more efficiently.  It’s all a learning process, that gets refined more and more each time.

You end up with a fine tuned ‘fill in the blanks’ system, which is easy to follow and stick to. 

If you don’t have a system or a list of tasks to follow and get done, it’s very easy to get distracted by some idea that pops into your head, or some email that hits your inbox.

If your plan is just in your head, it’s very easy to abandon it and jump to the next big thing.  But if you have things down on paper, or in a spreadsheet that you work on and view each day, it makes it harder to leave projects unfinished, and easier to get them done.

Start doing this today, and my guess is that by the end of the week or month, you will look back and see that you’ve got so much more done.
