Hi Peter

Do you use Yoast SEO on your Wordpress sites? I do - it's usually the first plugin I install. But did you know that one of the main features of this plugin may get your pages penalized? I recorded a short video to explain which features you should no longer be using in this plugin. You can watch the video here:

Also, a quick update. As you probably know, I am creating courses on Udemy. One of those courses is all about how you can become an instructor on Udemy to make a recurring, passive income. The course has only been released for a few months, and already one of my students is up to $700 per month. Here is what Rob wrote in an email to me:

"Thanks for this course as it started me off on Udemy. Progressing well with my Udemy business still growing on 8 courses now with monthly over $700 last month should be similar this month. " Rob Wilson.

You can check out Rob's profile on Udemy and see what courses he is offering here:

If you'd like to start a new career teaching online, here is a coupon for my course that means you can get it for just $12 (normally $149):

That's all for now.

EzSEO Newsletter - Kindle, SEO & WIndows 10

Hi Peter

In this newsletter:
1. Lessons learnt from Windows 10 Upgrade
2. Kindle authors - get guaranteed sales
3. Review copy of SEO 2016?

1. Lessons learnt from Windows 10 Upgrade
Back in August I wrote an article on Windows 10 and why I would wait several months before upgrading. Well, the decision was kind of taken out of my hands, and I upgraded. I wrote an article on my site that explains the problems I had, and the lessons learnt. It also includes details of a major Windows 10 bug that is most "heavy" Windows users. You can read the article here:

http://ezseonews.com/technical-stuff/lessons-learnt-from-windows-10-upgrade/

2. Kindle authors - get guaranteed sales
I recently saw a service that offered guaranteed sales of Kindle books so decided to test it. There are a few requirements if you want to use this service. The sales you pay for work out at $1 per sale, and you do need to have your book on special at 99 cents. That means you are actually making a loss. However, as most Kindle authors know, the boost in sales will increase your visibility on Amazon in the search results. While the service apparently works better for fiction than non-fiction, I decided to try out my own "Wordpress for Beginners" kindle book. I bought "100 sales" for $100. The service actually generated 62 sales for me over 2 days, which took my Best Sellers Rank from 45,000 ish, to around 7,500. Sales were increased for several days after the promotion. Oh, and the remaining 38 sales they did not deliver were refunded to me, so I only paid for the sales generated.

The same service also offers promotions for free book downloads. You can find all of their offerings here:
http://ezseonews.com/booksb

For the paid book promotions, click onto the $0.99 Book slots tab.

I found their service professional, courteous, and the refund was delivered promptly and without any problem.

3. Review copy of SEO 2016?
Finally today, I want to offer review copies of my SEO 2016 book. I really need some honest reviews of the book on Amazon. This offer of review copies is only available until Monday 26th October. I am not expecting the reviews to be done until you've gone through the book, so up to two weeks is fine. To qualify for a review copy, you MUST have reviewed either one of my books on Amazon, OR one of my Udemy courses on Udemy. Just send me a link to your review and I'll send you a review copy as a PDF.


That's all for now.

all the best

EzSEO Newsletter - Must read article + a new release

Hi Peter

I read a good (and up-to-date) article this week on the power of internal linking as an SEO strategy. It's over on the Search Engine Watch website here:

http://searchenginewatch.com/sew/how-to/2428041/internal-linking-for-seo-examples-and-best-practices

I found this article very interesting and something I recommend you read if you own a website.

A while ago, I wrote an article on my site that explained how internal links on a site were powerful ranking factors. In fact, I took some pages on my site that ranked lower than 100 in the SERPs, and some didn't rank at all, right up to the top 20 with nothing but internal links. You can read that article here:

http://ezseonews.com/backlinks/internal-linking-seo/

Today, internal links remain a major part of my own SEO strategy, and it should be part of yours too. I highly recommend you read that Search Engine Watch article.

Secondly, you may have heard that Call To Action Pro v2 has just been released. I've spent a few days playing with it and really like it, and there is some great news. If you bought version 1, version 2 is a free update!

The original version of this Wordpress plugin was certainly in my top 3 Worpdress plugins from 2014. It allowed me to use a simply drag & drop interface to create eye-catching titles, calls to actions and more, without any technical knowledge. You have probably seen these animations on my ezSEONews site. Well they were created with version 1 of Call to Action Pro. I've recorded a video showing the new version in action, and you can watch it here:

http://ezseonews.com/review/call-to-action-pro-v2/

If you have been using Call To Action pro on your own sites, I'd love to know what you think of it. You can leave comments, thoughts and questions in the comment section.


That's all for now.

all the best
