Buyers Tips for an Auto Auction

By Paul Cameron
It's easy to find discounted car bargains at a public auto auction. There you'll find everything from luxury automobiles to junk projects. Whether it's for personal use or resale, a lot of people purchase vehicles in this manner. This pleasant experience, however, can quickly turn sour if you don't know a few things. Maybe the car isn't as wonderful as it seemed. There are lemons at auctions too. Keep in mind that what you see at an auction is what you get. Even children have been taught about "as is" through a television cartoon showing a guy buying a used car. As he inspects the car he asks a lot of questions to which the salesman always responds "as is". After the sale is final the buyer tries to drive the car, but the doors fall off and the engine explodes. "I want the car as was!" screams the angry driver. Nobody wants to become that guy. People are given the chance to inspect the vehicles at auto auctions. If an auction won't do that, run. Arrive early. Test drive the cars you like. If you don't know anything about cars, bring someone who does. If not, then during the test drive bring the car to a mechanic for inspection. Decent inspections take only a few minutes to check the important elements of the car including the motor, belts, brakes, and the like. Anyone with a decent eye can check the body, interior and other physical elements for wear and tear. The very nature of auctions leads to another common issue. Auction prices can be terrific, but sometimes people assume a bargain where there is none. That holds true for auto auctions too. The car's value can be quickly eclipsed by excited bidding. Be very careful because fees will be added to the final bid price. Be armed with Kelly Blue Book values as well as real sales examples of similar models and years. With Internet enabled phones and the like it's now easy to look up this information while on site. Don't pay more than the car is worth, even if it's a coveted antique. It's not hard to find bargains at auctions. But keep your eyes and ears open. There's a sucker born every minute. Don't be the minute man at an auto auction.

How To Cheat Your Way To Niche Marketing Profits

By Mark Bishop
Why spend weeks or months searching for the answer to your online marketing dreams when all you really have to do is find out which niche market holds the best chance of showing an instant profit. I'd like to share with you a simple little niche marketing method that anyone can use to generate an almost instant profit over and over again. This method is very well suited to new niche marketers, because it offers the quickest return on investment and time, don't get me wrong here I'm not suggesting that you steal other peoples work here, I'm just showing you a very quick way that you can start profiting from your efforts as soon as possible with your first project. There are a couple of types of cloning one of which is outright plagiarism, which I'm not advocating here, the method of cloning I'll be showing you relies heavily on finding a successful competitor and then using their methods. Basically I'm going to quickly show you how to find a profitable niche market and then swipe a successful competitors marketing strategy and apply it to your own business. Here's how it works, and please remember this is legal, first off your going to need to find a niche market, you might already have an idea, but if not here's how you can do it. Step 1 As I said a great place to start might be with your own interest's or hobbies, this is not crucial to the method it just makes things go a little quicker in many cases. If you don't have any ideas your going to need to surf the web a little to find a couple of interesting ideas for your first niche market, here's how Step B. Now that you have an idea of the markets your going to be researching your going to need to do a little research, for this part you should use Google keywords tool (as it's free), put your niche keyword or phrase into the software and hit enter. The keyword software will return a list of relative keywords to your original entry. With this new list look for something that you think might be profitable. Step 3. Hopefully at this point you will have found an area to work in, a keyword or phase, now open another window and enter that keyword or phrase into Google and do a search, in my experience you should be looking for a market of not more than around 150,000 web-sites, on the right hand side of your screen you should make sure there are some sponsored ad's, these are google PPC listings and are crucial to this method. There should be at least five sponsored listings to make the niche viable. Take a look at your competitors websites to establish what they are actually selling. Step D. Having established that your potential niche market is profitable you now need to exploit your competition, to carry out this task you will need to download the free version of software called 'Traffic travis', I'm sure there are lots of software applications which do the same but traffic travis is the software I use. Enter your keywords and phrases into the software (follow the video tutorial). This procedure will establish how many websites are currently bidding on your keywords in the PPC market. We carry out this research only to determine if your competitors are willing to consistently pay money to have their ad appear for those keywords, (I'm not advocating that you get involved with PPC marketing at this point). As you will see Traffic travis is a great tool for spying on your competitors as it not only shows you which keywords are profitable, plus the complete list of keywords they are using to market their website, I'm sure there are many other software applications which do the same research, so feel free to look around!. Step E. Once your happy that your potential niche market is profitable you will need to find a product that matches your competition's as closely as possible, you could start from scratch and put your own ebook together if you have, but for this example i'm going to suggest an easier and quicker way. I would suggest finding a suitable PLR book, which gives you complete rights. You should find a PLR product which allows you to edit and re-brand, the PLR license will look something like this: 100% FULL Unrestricted PLR Rights License, You may do with this product as You please [Yes] Has Sales Page [Yes] Can be given away. [Yes] Can be packaged. [Yes] Can be offered as a bonus. [Yes] Can Be Edited Completely and Your Name Put on it. [Yes] Can be used as web content [Yes] Can be broken down into articles [Yes] Can be added to paid membership sites [Yes] Can be offered through auction sites. [Yes] Can sell Resale Rights [Yes] Can sell Master Resale Rights [Yes] Can sell Private Label Rights You can find PLR ebooks and packages on almost any subject you like, try searching via the Internet PLR products on your chosen niche market. The age of the product is not really to important as you will probably ad to it, don't worry about finding a product with sales material as more often than not its complete rubbish anyway. You could also try a search on eBay, I've personally found quite a few PLR products there. When you have your PLR product / ebook I suggest you take it apart and start adding to it, what your trying to achieve her is a unique looking product, while the contents of the book may be good, they may also be a little dated or stale, take a look at the bullet lists within your competitors sales copy and then go to a few relative forums to research these bullets, now you can ad this extra info into your book. When you've completed your ebook you will need to turn the file into a PDF to allow everyone to download and read, you can get a free software to carry out this step here: ***Link removed in order to comply with article publishing guidelines***. You will need a new e-cover, some graphics and a header to use on your new niche web-site, Here's a great free software you can download which works very well: **LINK REMOVED** Free header software here: **LINK REMOVED** Now that you have your niche marketing ebook PDF, complete with your own branded e-book cover, some good graphics and header you will need a good sales page for your website. For this step I would suggest you head back over to your competitors web-sites and read the sales copy of each, see which copy is most captivating and works, now copy & paste all of the text from the website that works the best into a notepad. You may want to ad to the copy or write your sales page yourself, if this is the case and you have no experience take a look at my resource links for sales copy-writing help Assuming your going to do things the easy way you will need to alter the sales copy to make it relevant to your own product and to avoid any plagiarism repercussions . Remember that the copy works for your competitor so be very careful not to disrupt the overall flow of the copy, try to keep things as close as possible to the original, without actually plagiarizing it as that would be illegal. Marketing your new niche product (web-site) will be your next task, the best place to start will again be through researching your successful competitors methods as their methods are obviously making them money Happy cloning.

Internet Marketing Email List

By Jeff Dedrick
I've found that one of the best mediums for marketing any business is internet email marketing. By using email as your medium of promotion you are almost guaranteeing your message will be read by thousands if not millions of people depending on the size of your email list. This form of promotion has grown by leaps and bounds over the years, but with it, came with the need to implement rules and regulations to govern it. When starting an internet email marketing campaign, it's important that your list is indeed targeted and 100% opt in. An opt in list is simply a mailing list where every person on the list has specifically requested to be on the list. It means that they have visited your site or a site you are affiliated with, and manually entered their information, which in turn gives you permission to email them with the information they requested. When operating an email campaign, you need to abide by all the applicable laws. Do not take any shortcuts, or break any rules. You'll have the peace of mind knowing that you are doing everything exactly as outlined in the regulations, therefore you can go about promoting your business ethically and without any legal implication. Many people overlook this aspect and turn to spamming to earn a quick buck, but it can lead to many legal complications that you surely don't need. Starting out with internet email marketing may require some upfront capital. It's not always the most affordable way to get started, but if done right, it will indeed be very profitable. In fact, it can be a lot more profitable than other mediums of promotion. As you market through email, your message is delivered into the inbox of your prospect. With a good offer, you can achieve a great return on your investment.

How to Choose Your Affiliate Marketing Partner?

By Asem Eltaher
The way how to choose your affiliate marketing partner is a key factor that can either skyrocket your online success or leads to a guaranteed failure. Obviously, respected and widely accepted associate partners would offer you an honest and unbiased proven formula to succeed. On the other hand, leaning an ear to half-qualified partners would miss lead you and you are going to loose your time and money when they leave you alone after they succeeded to push you to purchase their products. Get here now 4 powerful tips to help you in selecting your future affiliate marketing partner. 1. Never forget to verify if they have high conversion rate. The first important aspect that can help you to target the best affiliate programs is to check their conversion rate mentioned in their corresponding affiliate network. Conversion rate is the percentage of visitors that your partner succeeded to convert them into sales. For example, if 1000 customers visited your website and only 100 of them purchased a sale, then your conversion rate is 10%. A good conversion rate is typically between 3-5%. 2. Check their website and Ask Yourself: What does this web site look like? Do you have any difficulty navigating through their website? Are they sand alone company and a well established one? If you were a visitor, would you be motivated to buy from them? Would you be happy with the paying procedure or is it too complicated? 3. You must see how easy or hard the competition is. The third significant factor, which you have to consider before you are going to join an affiliate program, is the competition of your target market. To do this check, one idea would be to type your target your keyword in diverse search engines like Google, Yahoo, MSN, etc. Then, see how many websites are optimized for the same keyword that you want to target. In addition, use some word tracking software to check how many times this keyword was searched over the last few months. 4. Choose a moderate field. Avoid working with an affiliate marketing partner who promotes products that suffer from high competition. This would be an obstacle for you to make money online and most of the beginners give up accordingly. On the way to your best affiliate program, it is strongly recommended to attack a niche in which only few thousands websites are available; yet your target keyword gets around 1000 visitor per month.

The same way a you get sucked into clicking on the link from a blog review is the same way that other people will feel when they see the blog review for your website.

Article Marketing 101

By Justin Harrison
The practice of article marketing involves writing and publishing online articles about certain topics, with the goal of enhancing your business's credibility, by framing you as an expert in your field or niche in addition to increasing its visibility on search engines. Of course as with any type of advertising campaign if you choose this approach it is essential that you have a well-developed marketing strategy firmly in place in order for you to be successful. You will need to take into account the objectives in your plans for using articles to market your business, decide who will actually be writing the articles, and develop an efficient resource box for you to go over all of your information and decide where you want to place the articles once they have actually been written. The goal of a marketing article is to drive more people to your site. This requires creating several high quality articles. Creating only a few articles will not get you the results you require. This will require either writing a number of articles on a routine basis or hiring someone do that for you. Provided you have the time and inclination, training to write articles can add an important skill. Contrary to popular belief, one can become skilled at writing articles through training unlike the need to have real talent needed to write a best-seller. It is critical to select a subject that you understand and that is related to your business. By writing an engaging, intelligent and brief article you can prove yourself to be a top member of your profession. Skip the obvious advertising of your product, as it can be a real deterrent to readers, and instead just present pertinent facts on a related topic. Freelance writers are able to write your articles if you don't feel comfortable writing them. Make sure you check out their reputation and verify they provide high quality work that is not plagiarized. The last stage of marketing strategy is to find a place to publish your articles. Blogs, popular websites or social networks work the best as it provides a pre-developed market of interested readers. Article marketing is a great way to approach marketing. This is because a well written article is often republished various times in different places around the internet, providing numerous links back to your website.

So, without further ado, those three types of web hosting are discount web hosting, Windows web hosting and Linux web hosting.

Reverse Phone Number Membershps -- Getting your Money's Worth

By Hans Hisbon
In today's economy, it is as important as ever to get your money's worth for what you are paying for. A subscription to a reverse phone number lookup service is no exception. Chances are, you are not getting what you should be with your membership. When you have a reverse telephone number lookup subscription, you do not have to worry about not writing down a name with a number. Simply write down the number and lookup the name later, no need to even waste the ink. If you are a salesperson and have a problem remembering names or want to find an address for a telephone number you have, use your subscription to find out. Many of the reverse telephone number subscriptions provide other services as well, such as providing general information about the telephone number's owner, such as age and the different cities they have lived in. Do you get unwanted or unsolicted phone calls often, and who does not? You can write down the number and find out who it belongs to later. If you are afraid that you will miss an important call, it will show up on the reverse search. Caller ID is just not enough these days when so many people have cell phones. In many areas, cell phone numbers do not include the name. Most reverse cell phone subscriptions include lookups of cell phone numbers, but be sure to check with the one you are interested in before making a final decision. Many people use their membership to lookup numbers that are in classified newspaper ads. If you are interested in an item in a classified ad, lookup the number with your membership to find out what part of town it is in. It could be your neighbor and you would not know it. There are so many victims of crime nowadays by simply responding to a classified ad, it pays to be careful. If the person on the other end does not give an address that is associated with the telephone number, or even a name, then raise your eyebrow, something could be wrong. Be sure to ask a lot of questions. Today, information is accessible by virtually anyone with a computer and internet access. If you are willing to pay the price, you can find out about anything you want. What was once almost impossible to find without consulting a private investigator for access, is accessible by virtually anyone with a computer. Be sure you are getting the most for you money when you subscribe to one of these information services.

Managing A Successful AdWords Campaign

By Brian Basch
It is easy to start up an Adwords advertising campaign. However managing a successful Adwords campaign is quite another thing. In fact when you compare a successful Ad words campaign to one that is just running you are talking about a considerable difference in profits. A failing advertising campaign can cost you 100's of dollars, which you could easily have utilized for other things in your business. How can you stop your hard earned money from being eaten up? The answer is transparent; you will need to pay attention to every detail of your Adwords campaign. Firstly you will need to take care when you choose your keywords, secondly be careful when you bid. But above all you will need to micro-manage your campaigns. To choose a keyword is not as easy as it looks. The aim of every keyword is to pull a certain quantity of general traffic but it must also be able to reach your specific market. Of course your ad must be able to produce sales for you, or you will find yourself seriously out of pocket. The Google Adwords site provides a number of tools for keyword research, for your Adwords campaign. These resources will help marketers to find popular keywords, synonyms and many other different variations of your keyword. What a lot of marketers fail to understand is the fact that pay per click marketing on the Internet, is actually a huge auction, with the highest bidder winning. Of course in these circumstances the advertiser who can put up the most money for a particular keyword becomes the highest bidder. This will put them in the best position for the greatest exposure. It is common knowledge that searchers have short attention spans. Because of this you will need to create and ad that is simple to read, gets your message across and is in a premier position. If your ad is just one of many in the search results then you will see little or no results. However even if an ad draws a lot of traffic, it can still only bring in useless leads, which makes it equally ineffective. The main idea is to try to maintain a precise balance. From the very beginning of your advertising campaign you will need to manage it carefully. An important detail to consider is sales conversions, you should be flexible and be able to make changes or delete an ad. It is also good to have software at your site to check which ad is pulling visitors and how many sales are being made. To be successful, always remember to monitor your ads in detail. In this way you will really see profits. If you are determined to succeed with your Adwords campaign you will need to monitor it. Google provides good tracking tools from the very beginning of your campaign. They will help you assess each one of your keywords. This enables you to make changes to a failing campaign.

Making heads turn...without breaking your bank account

By Alice Alina Allison Amanda Amy Amber Andrea Angela Ann Anita Barbara Betty
This is a question many people ask: What's the difference between a replica Louis Vuitton handbag and an authentic Louis Vuitton handbag? Well, the answer is simple: the price. A replica Louis Vuitton handbag is a lot more affordable -- and what's more, you get exactly the same brand name and quality that you find in an authentic Louis Vuitton handbag. There are people who have the opinion that an authentic Louis Vuitton handbag is of better quality than a replica Louis Vuitton handbag. What they don't know is that many fashion brands, including Louis Vuitton, often produce their merchandise in foreign countries like China or India because labor and materials are a lot more economical there. Some people argue that replica Louis Vuitton handbags are not produced in Italy. But perhaps if you take a closer look at an authentic Louis Vuitton handbag, you may discover a "Made in China" label printed as tiny as possible and located in an obscure part of the bag! Even if you don't find an incriminating label, that doesn't necessarily guarantee that the authentic Louis Vuitton handbag is a product of Italy, as many brand owners would like you to believe. It is possible that up to 90 percent of the Louis Vuitton bag was made in China and only the final 10 percent of finishing touches were done in Italy, which qualifies it to be labeled "Made in Italy." Another possibility is that the authentic Louis Vuitton handbag was produced in Italy with the use of unlicensed foreign manufacturers. Given these situations, it is hardly fair to claim that an authentic Louis Vuitton bag is better than a replica Louis Vuitton handbag. Imagine this: an authentic Louis Vuitton handbag is being produced in a factory in a developing nation. Workers in the factory are paid low wages to stitch together these authentic Louis Vuitton handbags. An identical factory just next door is producing replica Louis Vuitton handbags, using materials from the same supplier as the other factory. In both factories, it costs about $100 to make the handbag. However, the authentic Louis Vuitton handbag is then shipped to an elite fashion boutique and offered to you at $2000. On the other hand, you can buy the replica Louis Vuitton handbag on the Internet at a much more competitive price. You are getting the same product -- but an authentic Louis Vuitton handbag costs you exorbitantly more than the replica Louis Vuitton handbag. But the bottom line is that an authentic Louis Vuitton handbag is not necessarily of higher quality than a Louis Vuitton replica. Both are exactly the same. So is there a reasonable explanation for this price differential? Louis Vuitton will justify the drastically higher price tag by saying that an authentic Louis Vuitton handbag bears its prestigious, unmistakable brand name. But Shakespeare was right when he wrote: "What's in a name?" The truth is that the same brand name will be displayed prominently on your replica Louis Vuitton handbag as well! So, what's the real difference between an authentic Louis Vuitton handbag and a replica Louis Vuitton handbag? Here's the answer. Getting an authentic Louis Vuitton handbag might break your bank account; but buying a replica Louis Vuitton handbag won't! So the choice is up to you -- be sure that you make the right one!

Typical Mistakes Made by Webmasters Seeking Better Rating

By Irmin J. Roybal
Doing Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is to some degree flirting with robots, so certain caution must be exercised. Webmasters, especially beginners, may tend to forget about it, and make mistakes. Since such mistakes can lead to reduced or even ruined rating of the site, it is good not to make them in a first place or fix immediately upon reading of this text. Graphic Header It is always nice to have a catchy graphic piece on top of the page picturing the logo and crowds of satisfied customers. Yes, humans tend to react positively to a vision of smiling faces, so nice graphic heading is always inviting. SE crawler may have a different vision, though. It looks for heading with h1 tag and keywords, or better for both at the very top of the page. If it will not find it there because of a space taken by the graphics, it may leave the site with a different (comparing to human visitor) idea about site quality. To avoid such nuisance, it is good to have h1-tagged title with the keywords before the graphics. Hidden Text In the process of placing keywords in their site many beginners eventually are getting the same "bright" idea: to place a large number of keywords invisible to visitors (using background color for the text, stuffing large number of keywords in no script areas of the code, and so on). It looks like a cool thing, but in reality it is very uncool! SE can catch it and will punish the site. In general, it is worth to remember that search engines do not like spamdexing (cheating with SEO) and their robots are specifically trained for recognition of such tricks. Repeating h1 tag Text under h1 (heading 1) tag is getting higher priority in some search systems. For this reason some web masters may attempt to use h1 more than once. Bad idea, SE can punish for this too. It is better to use h1 just once, and use h2 and h3 repeatedly for the rest of all necessary headings. Conclusion and last tip Search Engine Optimization is an important part of any traffic generation strategy, however, it cannot be a sole part of it. It is well known that SE change their algorithms periodically, and, as a result, the sites tuned to previous conditions may suffer severe losses of traffic. Best practice is always the same: to combine all affordable (and honest) means of getting visitors to your site. Good luck!

Ten Steps to Successfully Having a Ten Figure Income

By Rob Walcher D.C.
Seeing Yourself In Billionaire Status Can you imagine yourself earning a ten figure income? Think about in terms of really happening; not just a dream of winning the lotterybut earning a ten figure income. In the United States there are in the arena of 3 million millionaires. With a population of 300 million that translates into about 1% of all Americans being millionaires. Lets go a step further. There are approximately 360 billionaires in the United States. The ranks of the super-rich are growing every day. After all, the step-up from millionaire to billionaire is only three orders of magnitude (1,000), requiring only one thousand, million-dollar chunks. Can you put yourself in that equation somehow? The magic number of steps it takes to reach millionaire status is ten. By figuring out where you are on the ladder and which steps you have left to complete you too can become a millionaire. Lets review them one by one. 1. You Must have a Vision For those of you who love the old musicals, remember the song from South Pacific called, Happy Talk. The chorus gives this wonderful admonition: you got to have a dream if you dont have a dream how you gonna have a dream come true? So simple. So true. So important. Yet too many people walk through life with no vision at all. How can they ever have their dreams come true? Motivation is not enough; you have to be motivated to dream yourself through the creation and implementation of your vision. Ask Yourself the Right Questions The biggest question you need to ask yourself is WHY you want to be a billionaire. Dont just settle for the obvious reasonsfind out WHY deep down inside. Make sure your why is bigger than you are (bigger than your mere wants). Once you get up past the six-figure level (monthly or yearly, either one) and move ever higher, believe it or not, things will begin to bore you. There must be a higher calling that compels you to keep moving ever upward. Locate your why! 3. Mentors Cows stay with cows, and so on. In other words, you have to surround yourself with mentors and other successful people who share your vision and see the future holding similar prosperity. Not only can you learn from their experience but they are like minded people who can teach you how to act wealthy and see it happen. Many of the really successful ones have shared their challenges or tips in easily accessed forms of media. There is no need to try and blaze a new trail, just follow the one that works. 4. Locate an Income Vehicle That Can Produce 100K per Month If you want to dig a little pond in a corner of your backyard, a shovel may work. If you are digging the foundation for a 100-story skyscraper, you may need a little more than a shovel. How about massive earth-moving machinery? There is an avenue that exists that will help make your dreams come true. Think about growing and earning your business on the big time level. 5. Network with People Nobody needs the headaches of hundreds of employees. You can create leverage by creating a network of people that will essentially be working for your efforts but not for you. It is easier and makes more sense to earn 1% of 100 people than 100% off of your own efforts. Oilman J. Paul Getty coined that phrase and look where it got him. There are tons of opportunities existing today that will offer the individual entrepreneur the tools of other peoples expertise and time without draining your own resources. Use them wisely. Let Money Work For you, Be Debt Free & Think Long term Middle class people work for money. The wealthy make their money work for them. Middle class people pay interest (in debt up to their eyeballs). The wealthy have interest paying them. Investing your money in a consistent means will mean safe returns without risk. Take the time to learn from the wealthy how to invest wisely. Above all us, you have to develop a wealthy persons mindset in all areas of finance. Create A Healthy Lifestyle Another quote from J. Paul Getty: The individual who wants to reach the top in business must appreciate the might and force of habit. He must be quick to break those habits that can break him " and hasten to adopt those practices that will become the habits that help him achieve the success he desires. Where you are today is the sum total of choices (both large and small; both good and bad) that you have made every day in your past. It has been said that it takes 21 days to form a habit. Whether or not that is true, you can certainly use it to create good habits in your life. Achieving good health (and a healthy state of mind) is as imperative to your wealth as any business model you might latch onto. Your body is your friend. Treat it at least as well as you do your vehicle. (Would you put sugar in the gas tank of your car?) Your brain is also your friend " feed it more good news than bad. 8. Strive for Excellence No one in this world is perfect, but it is a fact that you must always strive for the best in life. Greatness and success are achieved by a person only when they have made a conscious effort to include those expectations in every aspect of their life. Once you are on the road to greatness you cannot slip into hypocritical behaviors or thought patterns as they will eventually destroy your efforts. Dream big and seek only the fruition of that dream in all your life endeavors. 9. Dream; Envision; Meditate It is one thing to have a dream, it is another to dream. You need to do both at all times. Use powerful tools of intention, meditation and imagery to keep the dream alive and remember to proactively dream as you move through your life. Some useful tools are image boards, goal maps, dream boards but any vehicle you choose to solidify your dream will allow it to manifest in your life. You can write it in a journal, on index cards. The basis is to always see the dream coming true and look toward how you want your future to be. Focus on your intention and it will be. Stay Vigilant & Dont Give Up! Always remember that you will make mistakes or err in your judgment and even make a few bad decisions. These may set you back a bit, but as long as you dont quit you have not failed. The difference in being successful and being a failure is your ability to make concessions and get moving again if you hit a pitfall. Keep your thoughts positive and always keep on trying. As long as you do that, you are never a failure. Failure is not about making mistakes, failure is about quitting! Now that you have set your goals and are living your dream you are on your way to a 10 figure income. Keep the pace and always upon always keep one foot in front of the other. Your belief dictates your ability to achieve your goals.
