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

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

Hi Peter
A number of visitors to my ezSEONews website have commented on the Wordpress theme I use there. Some like it, others not so much. Personally I like it a lot and use the same theme on a number of my niche websites. It's fast loading and responsive, so looks great on any size screen.
The theme is called Customizr Pro, and I've just uploaded a video showing "behind-the-scenes" how the theme can be customized. The theme comes in a free version as well as the Pro version.
You can watch my video review of the Customizr Pro theme here:
http://ezseonews.com/wordpresstutorials/customizr-pro-review/
What is your favourite Wordpress theme? Let me know in the comments what it is, and why you like it so much.
That's all for now.

Hi Peter
A number of people have asked me if you now have to have an Adwords campaign before you can use the Google Keyword Planner. The answer is no, but if you go about signing up for the keyword tool the wrong way, you will essentially be locked out until you do create that campaign. I recorded a short video tutorial showing you how to sign up and use the Google Keyword Planner without having to set up an Adwords campaign. You can watch the tutorial here:
http://ezseonews.com/keyword-research/google-keyword-plannerno-adwords-campaign/
If you have any comments on the tutorial, or maybe you'd like to share your keyword tool of choice, then please leave your ideas and thoughts in the comments section at the end of that article. Thanks!
I also thought I'd mention an interesting article about content creation which I really liked. This guy takes my own techniques for creating content, but adds in a second powerful technique to the content creation process. It's also a great way to get backlinks naturally to your site. It's a must read for anyone building a website:
http://www.contentchampion.com/rank-blaster-content-creation/
"
Finally, I've just released my 10th Udem course in the last week. It is called "Learn How to Move a Wordpress Website" and covers two different types of move:
1. Moving a Wordpress website to a new web host.
2. Moving a Wordpress website to a new domain, and reasons why you might need/want to do that.
For a limited launch period, I am offering the course for just $5:

That's all for now. Have a great weekend.

Hi Peter
This is just a quick heads up to let you know that I've posted a new article on my site.
The article is called "How to Handle Comment Spam" and covers the two main ways I handle comment moderation on my Wordpress sites. One method is for those times when you have 100-300 comments that need moderating, and the other is when you have thousands. the new post is here:
http://ezseonews.com/wordpresstutorials/how-to-handle-comment-spam/
If you have any favourite tips (maybe a plugin that works very well) for blocking comment spam, please leave a comment at the end of the post.
That's all for now.

Hi Peter
This is just a quick heads up to let you know that I've posted a new video on my site.
The video is really a tutorial showing how you can easily install a child theme on your Wordpress site, and why you might want to do this. You can watch the video here:
http://ezseonews.com/internet-marketing-tips/create-a-wordpress-child-theme-easily/
Since recording that video, I used the same plugin on my ezSEONews site (Customizr Pro theme as well) and it worked, though I had to reselect menus and re-arrange widgets in the child theme. That's not a big deal for the benefits I now have on the site. If you have any questions or comments on Wordpress child themes, please leave a comment on that page.
Other News:
SEO 2016 & Beyond - A heads up that this book has been released and is now available on Kindle and as a paperback through Amazon. You can find it in the sidebar on my site (follow that link above).
Also, for those of you that are interested in developing a Wordpress site, or just want to learn how to use Wordpress, my latest Udemy course shows you how you can install Wordpress on your own computer (PC or Mac). That means you don't need to pay for a web host while you learn, or even build your site. My course even shows you how to move your local site to a web host, if and when you want to. For details on that and other courses, visit my Udemy course coupon page, where you can also make big savings on the retail prices of those courses.
