A sneaky yet ethical way to get traffic

Peter,

Did you ever notice those ads that follow
you around the internet? You may have
looked at something three days ago, and
ads keep appearing for it wherever you go.

It's called remarketing. And its one of
the most potent marketing tools available.

I know the guys behind it...

Jonathan Mizel, one of my earliest
mentors, is scary smart and a downright
sneaky fellow.

Tim Gross, whom I've known as a
customer and dynamic marketer for
the past 12 years.

Jonathan and Tim are prepared to hand you
the entire remarketing strategy. I wanted
it the moment I saw it. I hope that you
see the benefits as well.

bye for now,

Michael


P.S.

A month ago I wouldn't have bought this.
A suit against remarketing - or "zombie
cookies" as they're sometimes called - was
in the courts. I'm happy to say the judge
threw it out, saying that the cookies in
no way violated the plaintiffs privacy.
So take advantage of this window while
its still wide open.

  FEATURE: Spread the Word with Social Buttons
Author: Susan Esparza
 

There is no denying it. The age of social media is no longer on the horizon or just around the corner. It is indisputably here. Social features exist on your phone, in your email and on search results for all major search engines. Social signals are well known to be factors in the decision-making process and are being actively used by Google and Bing in their algorithms.

One of the simplest ways for any website to join the conversation and tap into the power of social media networks is by adding social media buttons to its pages. The question is often not "should buttons be added to the site" but "which buttons should be used?" This article breaks down which buttons you need and how they work.

  BACK TO BASICS:
Local SEO on a Budget: Power Marketing Without a Website

Author: Jessica Lee
 

Local search is a growing sector, and local businesses cannot ignore the exposure local optimization can offer. With social networks, location check-in services, business listings, review sites, mobile applications and more, local businesses can now secure a portion of online traffic and boost client engagement even without a website and on while on a budget.

According to research presented at search industry conference, SMX West 2011, Andy Chu of Bing reported 53 percent of queries having a local intent, with the top categories being movies and restaurants. Bruce Clay has even said that Google will be primarily a local search engine in the years to come.

But local search optimization doesn't stop at PC users searching for a business online at home. Local and social search are merging with mobile Internet and applications to offer more ways to for a business to reach its target market. Optimizing for local search without a website can draw not only online traffic, but foot traffic to a place of business.

Nearly 100 percent of the suggestions made in this article are free or cost local businesses next to nothing. The catch? A little investment in research and time. But, it's an investment worth making in order to stay ahead of the curve and search engine trends. And it's a fantastic way to increase exposure without having to invest thousands of dollars into a website.

  INTERNATIONAL:
The Best SEO Apps on the iPhone

Author: Bruce Clay Australia Staff
 

Doing SEO on your mobile phone? We decided to analyse every SEO iPhone App we could we could get our hands on from the App Store and this is what we found.

The native SEO iPhone applications currently available definitely don't provide the full capability of desktop or hosted SEO tool solutions; however that is not necessarily the point.

SEO related iPhone apps should provide the data you need whilst away from your office and although the current offerings might not meet all of the typical SEO needs, the future looks promising. The most significant surprise was the sophistication of the analytical apps available from Omniture SiteCatalyst and Thomas Blackburn's Analytics Pro.

New Cloud Storage Services: The Benefits and Risks

Two new products created buzz this month: Google Music Beta and Google Chromebook. And while they both have the Google name in common, they have something else that makes them alike: cloud storage.

Cloud storage is a virtual storage system that's an alternative for storing information on a hard drive, flash drive, CD or other type of storage device.

Cloud storage allow users to save information, photos, videos, documents and more on a virtual storage system that can be accessed anywhere.

Many people are attracted to cloud storage systems because it alleviates the need to save and backup data, frees up memory space on a computing device and allows for much more storage of data.

Many people use cloud storage and may not even realize it. Common cloud storage devices include services such as Gmail and Yahoo! Mail, Google Docs, Facebook, Myspace, YouTube and Flickr.

So what are Google Music and Google Chromebook promising? Ease of access to your most used data from anywhere at anytime - as long as you have an Internet connection. See, cloud storage typically only works if an Internet connection is available.

Google's Chromebook is available for order June 15 and touts efficiency and ease of access. Chromebook performs all its tasks via the Internet and has a built-in Wi-Fi connection.

Logging into Chromebook automatically logs a person into all the accounts they have through Google, such as Gmail and Google Docs, and syncs settings with other computers, so whether at work, home or somewhere else, all the data a person needs is right there.

Google Music allows storage for up to 20,000 MP3s in one place. Once all a person's music is uploaded to Google Music, she or he can listen to it from anywhere via the Web or Android mobile phone device.

Google Music also allows access to recently played songs or tailored playlists on an Android mobile device even when the Internet isn't an option, for example, on an airplane. Google Music tells us with this new service, we can spend more time listening to our music and less time managing it.

Should We Be on Cloud Nine About Cloud Storage?

While cloud storage may initially sound foolproof, concerns over security and reliability are often the most voiced. However, cloud storage systems often highlight that safety of data as something they can provide.

See, data loss is often vulnerable when left to one device, for example, a hard drive or memory stick. When someone's laptop goes missing or if it crashes, the data is forever gone if it has not been backed up.

With cloud storage, the data is not susceptible to same kind of risk. In fact, many storage devices duplicate the data, called redundancy, in order to ensure it's easily accessible at any time.

However, the reliability of the organization providing the cloud storage is important to keep in mind. If a company is financially unstable and could go under or if they don't take measures to protect data through encryption, authorization and authentication, data loss could be an issue.

But the reliability of a company does not always factor. Take, for example, Amazon's cloud computing and storage, Amazon Web Services (AWS). AWS rents cloud storage and computing power to serve up sites people want to access online.

Last month, Amazon's servers failed to work properly and big-name sites such as Quora, Reddit, Foursquare, Hootsuite all suffered. These sites were either down completely without access or severely slowed down.

Other concerns include privacy. Cloud storage devices are often too complex for the average hacker to break into, but that still doesn't eliminate many people's concerns about private information stored virtually and potentially viewable by other parties. Other concerns over ownership of data stored in the cloud are also often expressed.

As we move into the future, some people predict personal memory and storage devices will become a thing of the past as we begin to store all data in the cloud. The question still remains if cloud storage is more or less reliable than people saving data when left to their own devices.

Facebook took a reputation hit when it was revealed that they had hired a PR company to start a whisper campaign against Google, encouraging journalists to delve into privacy violations by the search engine. Facebook apologized for getting caught.

Twitpic - an image sharing service used by many Twitter users - updated its terms of service and faced a backlash when the update seemed to imply that Twitpic was claiming copyright over user-uploaded photos. Twitpic issued a blog post in an attempt at clearing up the issue and updated the TOS again to clear up the issue; however, many are still unhappy with the service's content distribution deal which would allow Twitpic to profit from user uploaded photos. Search Engine Land took a deeper look at what online distribution rights apply to sharing services like yfrog and Twitpic.

Hi Peter

I bet this is a surprise! No newsletter for several weeks and
then two within the space of days.

There are two reasons I decided to write another newsletter today.


Firstly someone made a comment after the last newsletter which I
actually thought was a bit strange. However, on reflection, I
guess that I take quite a lot for granted when I'm writing my
newsletter. My reply to the comment was quite short and I planned
to elaborate more in the next newsletter which I figured would be a
week or two away. However, yesterday I joined a site for a $1, 14
day trial and am really stunned at the amount of information
inside. I wanted to do a full review to let you know what's inside
this membership site, but from what I heard today, I don't have
time to wait. By Monday you may not be able to get in even if you
want to. Many of you know one of the people responsible for this
membership site because every year he runs a free Internet
marketing thirty-day challenge. Yes, it's none other than Ed Dale
(working with Dan Raine).

1. Google Algorithm - From the Horses Mouth

2. Use Ghost Writers? You need this...

3. Tenerife goes viral!

4. What I am up to at the moment.


Hi Peter

It's been a while since the last newsletter. As long-time
subscribers of the newsletter know, I have a problem with some of
the discs in my neck and it has stopped me from typing, writing and
pretty much anything else that I used to take granted. After a lot
of subscribers recommended that I go see a chiropractor, I finally
did and have started treatment with an English chiropractor here in
Tenerife called Luke Ramsay. I've seen him maybe four times so
far, and there has been an improvement in the overall strength of
my hand, so I am hopeful that this could be a solution rather than
going for the drastic option of surgery. Luke has said he is quite
optimistic that he can help fix this using a combination of his
torture chamber plus nutritional supplements to strengthen and
repair the discs and scar tissue.

Anyway I wanted to release a newsletter to point out a blog post
just in case you missed it. It's got an interesting insight into
the way the Google algorithm works (or at least tries to work).
Also in the newsletter I want to mention a product that I have been
using to check the articles that my ghost writers have been
providing. If you hire writers, this tool may be one of the
essential items that you need. Fortunately there's a free trial so
you can download it and see for yourself.

In Just a Few Hours... Tuesday May 10 2011

Internet Marketing Secrets
Special Edition - May 10 2011
Re: 48 hour special for IMS subscribers


Peter,

This is just a quick reminder about the
exclusive deal for my newsletter readers.
That would be you. :-) The good news is,
I'm extending the deal a couple more days.

Last week I sent you a newsletter, telling
you how to get a Lifetime membership to
the Dynamic Media Vault. In case you
missed it, here it is real quick...

The Dynamic Media Vault is where I've
been stashing training materials for my
coaching customers. There's 12 years
worth of consulting in there. Chances
are, if you have any questions about
internet marketing, the answers are in
the Vault.

There's over 150 hours of reading,
listening and viewing material, ready
for download. Multiply that by my
hourly rate - 200 an hour - and that's
a staggering 30K value for all the
goodies inside.

Look See: http://www.dynamicmedia.com/vault

Right now, you can secure lifetime access
to the Dynamic Media Vault, for just 98
bucks. A few days from now, the deal will
be gone, because the affiliates will be
selling it for 197.

Can we call this a deal then?

To secure your discount, go there and
get it now, because a couple of days
from now it will be gone.

I hope to see you inside.

take care,

Michael


P. S.

Please note that I'm extending this
discount just a few more days. Only
until Thursday May 12 2011 at 9:00 pm
Pacific time.

As an exclusive, because you're an
Internet Marketing Secrets Newsletter
subscriber, you get 48 hours to purchase
at 98, before the price goes up to 197.

P. P. S.

A few people have asked, why I'm
giving away such value at ridiculous
prices. Well, ever since I became
successful back in 1998, I've been
helping people 1 on 1 with my
coaching. It's time to pack that in.

My new mantra is to help as many
people, in the most abundant way possible.
Opening the entire contents of the Vault,
for one low price, allows me to do that.

It's just my way of giving back to the
community that made me successful.
I hope that one day, thanks to the
information inside, you will be too.

Get your 30,000 dollar value now,
for only 98, before the price doubles,
in just 48 hours from now.
