Don't Call It A Comeback...

"Don't Call It A Comeback, I've been here for years" ~LLCoolJ

These quoted lyrics might not be familiar to everyone reading this but for me it's a reminder I hold very close.

I was raised in California, where life flew by and the rat race was something most folks scratched and clawed at to keep up with.

I realized at a young age I was going to have my work cut out for me if I planned on getting ahead.
My father was a General Contractor. From watching him, it became obvious that working for yourself was the answer.

What I didn't exactly see was his struggles. He did everything. He hustled, did the bidding and the work.
He had no help to speak of so at times he was stretched pretty thin.  All in all though, he seemed happy to be doing his own thing.

This is exactly what I wanted for myself. I knew it wouldn't be easy. I didn't even have a skill set yet.
I did however know that hard work and training in the right areas would be the answer.

Growing up over the years, I began to pick up on how to do certain things in the construction trade.
Obviously I started out as a laborer, breaking my back for chump change like most people do.
But as I got older and more experienced, I began to get the confidence that is expected of a craftsman.

I quickly realized that I needed a specialized trade if I wanted to stand out from the pack.
I had enjoyed carpentry, concrete and roofing but still wasn't as good or as knowledgable as others.
There must be something I could excel in above everyone else.

One day I walked into a Mom and Pop Flooring Shop.
I was there to pick up some vinyl flooring for a project at my aunts house.
At the time, I had never done any flooring except for carpet and that was as a helper, not an installer.
I met the owner (was a nice 'ol guy) purchased the materials and soon was on my way to installing my first floor.

When it was finished, I had to return a roller I borrowed (used to smooth out the gas bubbles in vinyl flooring).
The owner asked me how it went and asked if he could see the work I had done, knowing it was my first vinyl job. Hesitantly I agreed and took him to see the floor. What happened next I wouldn't have expected.
After leaving my aunts house the shop owner turned to me and congratulated me on a job well done.
A minute later, he asked me if I'd be interested in learning the trade while working for his company.
It really didn't take any thought, I simply said Yes.

Over the next 10+ years, I worked for several other flooring companies and eventually started my own business. Finally I knew why my Father had always preferred working for himself.
Freedom, control, good pay and only customers to answer to. What could be better?

I honestly thought I had found my niche and worked hard and long to establish myself  in it.
I was good at what I did and was respected among my peers and other Pro's in my industry.
Nothing at the time would stand in my way of being successful.

At the end of 2002, I decided to try my hand at installing new mediums like natural stones, granite and marble.
Not only was I installing floors but now I was also installing counter tops, building fireplace surrounds, hearths, mantles, etc.

The work was very similar to what I had done as a Flooring Pro, so It was an easy transition to make.
The company I was now working for was owned by a friend of mine. I felt good about my place in the company and did all I could to add incomparable value to what we offered.

I soon was becoming one of the best in my local industry and customers would ask for me by name.
That is something most people could only strive for but for me it was actually a reality.
I felt as if I discovered a new me. I was better than most at my job and soon was the #2 guy in the company.
The sky was the limit. The best part was that the company was only a few years old at the time and was on track to surpass a Million Dollars in Production. My position was definitely secure.

The wife and I bought our first home and paid off all our debts(but the house of course).
We were very happy and had many plans for the future.
In Sept of 2004, all that changed.

One morning while moving slabs of stone around in the yard, I was crushed by nearly 2000lbs of falling stone.
Talk about a hurt! I had never experienced that kind of pain in my life. I was battered, bruised and had torn ligaments in my leg. At the time, we weren't sure the extent of the damages or if I'd ever make it back to working there again.

I immediately underwent intensive physical therapy which continued for 3 months or so.
I was determined to do what I could to make a comeback.
In Dec of 2004 I returned to light duty status and was very happy I made it.

Over the next 8 months, I struggled to perform my normal daily duties as the install foreman.
It was difficult and at times nerve wracking and painful to keep up.
I should have purchased stock in "Aleve" as I was taking 5 or more tablets a day just to keep the edge off.

That year, our company had done work in 5 of 7 Parade of Homes entries and I had personally been asked to work on a 6th for a millionaire homeowner who desperately needed a fossil stone repair made the day before the judging of his home.

After the Parade of Homes had ended, and to me, feeling that I had reached a pinnacle of sorts, decided to resign my position. No one was happy about that but I just couldn't see continuing on in so much discomfort and pain. I also was afraid at times, of hurting my coworkers by dropping or slipping while carrying heavy stone.

It was time to look into other areas of possibilities.
My employment would be dependant on the amount of labor required to do a job.
I began to think about what my future work potential would be.

Soon after, I took a position with a local building contractor who put me into management.
I was now doing no-brainer stuff as a shop manager. I ran a forklift, took inventory, handled shipping and receiving, etc. Wasn't much to it, especially nothing really custom. I worried that I wouldn't be happy there.

As the months went by, I started having more and more discomfort and pain.
I knew there was an underlying problem but couldn't put my finger on it.
Everyone around me began to doubt my integrity and wondered if I was truly hurt or playing lazy.
And it wasn't just at work, it was everywhere and everyone, even my family.

I was becoming the person that people talk about behind their backs because they couldn't tell if I was faking or not.

Things around the house weren't getting done, money was no longer coming in like we were used to and on top of it all,my marriage was beginning to pay the ultimate price.

When are you going to get off your ass and do something?
Don't you think you need to get back to work already?
Your wife shouldn't have to support both of you!

The comments were coming in from everywhere.
My closest friends and peers were doubting me.
I was slipping into my own great depression.

At this time it had been nearly 2 years since my stone accident.
It was obvious that I was no longer improving. I couldn't figure it out!
Doctors began dismissing my pains by saying it was all in my head and began pushing pills at me.
Screw their pills! That was not the answer as far as I was concerned.

I knew there was a reason why this was happening and I needed to find someone that would look into deeper. A good friend and local Chiropractor was just the person I needed to see.
After placing some IFC (a type of electrical stim) on my neck, he noticed something that was seriously not right. He immediately called another doctor and demanded that an MRI be done right away of my entire cervical and thoracic spine.

What we discovered, changed my life forever.

We will consider that enough for today. Please come back again to read Part 2 of this Comeback Story.

Thank You and I Appreciate Your Support.

Flippa Makes Selling Your Website As Easy As 123

In the world of Website Auction Sites, 1 place in particular stands out for me and my business...

It's Flippa.com !




Over the last year, my partner and I have been creating niche sites in order to test certain markets.

Some of these sites received Page Rank, 1st Page listings and better yet, brought in monthly revenue.

Obviously our main goal in creating these sites was to eventually make some money, so the PR and Rankings were merely bonuses along the way.

Unfortunately, as many website builders and bloggers are aware, not every site built will hit it's desired target goal.

Then again, some sites do but require too much manual work to maintain on a daily basis.

For the websites that performed but were high maintenance and for websites that we built as test sites in particular markets, we decided to list them at auction to see what they would do and to free up our time for other ventures.

As you may have read in earlier posts, I am a member of the 30DC.  As members of "The 30 Day Challenge", we were introduced to Flippa by it's promoters.

So, what is Flippa, you ask?

Well, Flippa is an auction house for websites, blogs and domain names.

Simply put, it brings together buyers and sellers in one convenient and secure location.

Everyday,  hundreds if not thousands of potential buyers search through listings in order to find sites that match their specific criteria.

On average, I believe there is around 2,000 or so people on the site at any given time looking to buy or sell. And on a monthly basis they receive over 400,000 unique views to the site. That's a lot of potential views for your listing!

Those are excellent numbers when you think about it!

Something I really like about flippa, is their simple layout that allows you to fill in the blanks to complete a listing quick and effortlessly.

In 6 easy steps, you can be listing your site for auction or even a private sale, depending on what you prefer.

Here are the 6 steps:
  1. Site Info
  2. Basic Listing Details
  3. Pricing Options
  4. Upgrades on Listings
  5. Confirm Details
  6. Payment Info
The standard Listing Fee is $19 with a Success Fee of 5%, which in my opinion, is definitely a reasonable price to pay to sell a site.

As I mentioned before, you can have an auction or a private sale.

Auctions can run for several lengths of time from 3 days to 30 days where as a private sale allows for a longer sale.

So no matter what time frame you are dealing with, there is an option for you at Flippa.

Our Experience...

Our experience with flippa auctions has been great. Our first site was bought for the "Buy It Now" price we set.

Our latest site, has had around a 100 views and has 10 people watching it. That's a 10% follow rate!

With another couple days left to go, we have nearly hit our Reserve Price.

Assuming this continues, we should get well above what we needed to make a profit from it.

Use the following link if you'd like to see a sample of a flippa listing that we put together.
The pic is below.



If you look through the listing you'll see all the stats that Flippa includes dircetly below the listing plus the additionals that can be added on your own including attachments, revenues, images, personal stats and analytic reports.

When you are ready to sell your website, blog or domain name, be sure and give Flippa's Auction a shot. You will be happy you Flippa'd it!

To Health And Success,
And Happy Flipping!




Matt Cutts' Search Engine Slip Can Help You Avoid The Slap When It Comes To Website Rankings!

Search Engines are like the HP's of the interent highway.


They regulate, control website traffic and at times, slap the heck out of rule breaking users on their highway.

For some of you, this may be something you have experienced first hand, while others have yet to deal with it.

For those of you that have not had to deal with this, consider yourself lucky, be thankful and don't forget to knock on wood.

Nobody wants to find out that their website and the work that went into it is unacceptable in the eyes of search engines like Google.

But how do you avoid making these costly, time consuming mistakes and starting over?

Don't worry, Google's Matt Cutts just slipped! And when I say he slipped, I don't mean he fell.

In a recent video, Cutts explains what Google expects from site owners, builders and the like in order to achieve website rankings.

Now honestly folks, is there really a better resource for this type of information? I don't believe so. Read on...

So What Does Google Expect?

Read what Tim at TakeOverPageOne had to say about Search Engine Management Tips And Getting Google To Love You

I consider their insights to be a step above the rest.

Applying these tips will undoubtedly help boost your site rankings.

Strategic Or Opportunistic?

What Type Of Thinker Are You?


Perspective: A way of regarding situations, facts, etc, and judging their relative importance
(Source-English Word Dictionary)

Thereare many different interpretations of the word perspective. To me,perspective means simply, how you see things. The old question ”Is theglass half full or half empty?”, is a question that helps to determine aperson’s perspective.

Somepeople might tell you that your answer depends on whether you areoptimistic or pessimistic. And there is definitely a lot of truth inthat. But the simple fact of the matter is, perspective does not have tobe about positive and negative.

Perspective,as I recently read, can be the difference between seeing things asopportunities versus strategies and vice versa. Or better said,Opportunistic Thinking Vs’ Strategic Thinking. Nowobviously, neither of these ways of looking at something would seemnegative but depending on the context, could easily be more harmful thanhelpful.

What is the difference between an opportunistic and a strategic thinker, you ask?


Tome, the difference is logical. People that are opportunistic tend tobelieve that there is always something better right around the corner orthey think the grass is greener on the other side of the fence. Theyare not anti work by any means but they do hold tight to the idea ofsucceeding by following in the footsteps of those that have made it lookeasy.

Internetmarketers of all types are guilty of this at one time or another. Imyself have been on the losing end of this crossroad and haveunfortunately learned my lessons the harder, rougher way. Good thing forme I’m a 4x4 enthusiast. The bumps and windy roads are merely obstaclesintended to be endured.

Backto my mention of following in the footsteps of others who... pleaseallow me to be clear. Following others that have proven track recordsfor success is not a bad thing, nor will it ruin or mislead your effortsdown the road. But bouncing from the heels of one success story to thenext, will undoubtedly be misleading and potentially counterproductive.

When you think of strategic thinkers, who comes to mind for you?
Itcould be a President, General or CEO perhaps, the list goes on and on.Strategy is one of the oldest survival techniques known to man.

Thinkabout it for a minute. Where would man be had he not been able to learnto adapt and evolve with the times. Where would civilizations bewithout the keen foresight of their leaders and their armies? Wherewould the USA be today without the constitution?

Strategyhas played a key role and will continue to do so in all modern culturesand societies as the world continues to evolve. Without thinkers, wewould most likely end up back in the dark ages with no resources, nocomforts and no futures to look forward to.

Thanks to great minds and thinkers, we as a civilization have been able to keep a steady pace moving forward into the future.

Strategicthinking goes a step beyond the opportunistic thinking in my opinion.Strategic thinkers not only watch, follow and learn from the mostsuccessful, they also look deeper into hidden areas of potential growthand advancement that may be overlooked.

Astrategic thinker is definitely an entrepreneur, hands down. Anentrepreneur will go out and find the same opportunity as theopportunity seeker and then by tapping into his or her strengths, canstrategically create an outline for success above and beyond what thenormal steps might be. If nothing else, the strategic thinker orentrepreneur will prove more willing to take the necessary steps to findthat success. If the opportunity seeker does not see results they areafter, they’ll typically pack up and move on to the next thing. That tome, is why there is and always has been such a high skeptic rate in theIM world.

Which kind of “Thinker” are you?

To get a better understanding of this, you should read what one of my mentors Rich had to say
in his updated report,”Internet Business Manifesto’s Missing Chapter”.

Youcan clearly see the difference between these two types of thinkers andhow it applies to running your business and being successful.

Indexing Your Site Content Can Boost Your Traffic And Rankings

Getting Indexed, Building Traffic and Improving Rankings Doesn't Have To Be Done Manually...


When it comes to having a valuable website, there are many factors that play a part.
Two of the more important things to be concerned with are indexing (of pages and content) and of course rankings.

Indexing is something that can be done manually or automatically.
It all depends on the tools that you have access to.

Indexing basically notifies the search engines that there is something new or added to a site.
Once a sites pages have been indexed, people searching online can find it.
Until a site has been indexed however, no information will show up in search results.

Many website owners have been online for years and have never had their sites and pages properly indexed.
This can lead to serious frustrations and possiby cause some site owners to close up and walk away.

There are a variety of ways to get pages quickly indexed and spread around the web like wildfire.

One of the best ways to do this is with the right software.
If you don't have software, you will be forced to this task manually.
Regardless of how you end up getting your pages indexed,
it is extremely important to do this task on a regular basis as you add to your site.

One of my favorite tools for this is Traffic Bug
Traffic Bug allows you to:
  • Submit To The Top 43 Social Bookmarking Sites
  • Sumit To All the Major RSS Feed Direcories
  • Sumit To Over 138 Different Search Engines 
  • Sumit To Over 1000 Directories
One of the best advantages to using TrafficBug, is that I have more free time to do the things I want.
You'd be amazed at the amount of time I have saved using this tool. In fact, here's a screenshot for you to see:


Here you can see the actual numbers. I have to admit, each time I add content to this I'm amazed!
From these stats you can see I have saved nearly 300 hours.
That's about 12.5 days of total time I have saved.
Could you use a time saver like this to improve your efforts?

Another program or tool I use is Directory Submitter by Brad Callen and the gang.
This tool allows for instant directory submissions with the push of a button.
By the way, did I mention it's a No Cost Download?
How's that for incentive to try it?

I'm not going to go into depth on the Directory Submitter software because I have some things to do.
But please take a few minutes to visit the webpage and see for yourself, all it's benefits.

Afterwards, come back and let us know what you thought of these two software options.

That pretty much wraps things up for me today.  I hope you found this useful.
Good Luck With Your Indexing and Ranking Efforts.

Domain and Hosting Services

It's Time To Buy a Domain Name and Hosting, but there are so many services and registrars, who should I use?

So the time has come to purchase you domain name and hosting for your new site venture. That's Exciting!

As you look around online, you probably notice that everyone and their mother are selling domains and offer hosting services.
They all claim to have the largest lists of domains to chose from and the best and most secure servers available.

But how do they really compare and is there an all inclusive service that is easy to use and affordable?

To answer that question, it's not a good idea to use the same service for registering your domains and hosting, so we will start with domains.  To learn more, read what Challenge Members had to say:
Hosting Where You Register Your Domain...Not A Good Idea
 
What many people do not realize is that you can go thru any registrar you want to purchase a domain name.
As long as the domain is available, you can purchase it anywhere they are sold.
You can use GoDaddy, Dynadot, NameCheap, etc. The list goes on and on.
I personally like GoDaddy.com and Dynadot.com for purchasing my domains.
The reason is because they are reliable, professional, and usually the most affordable on the pocketbook.
That's important...
Go To Directly To GoDaddy And See For Yourself

Once you have a found a fair price for a domain, it's time to pick a hosting service to get your site online.

Many hosting services offer easy to use control panels CPanels. I refer to these as tool kits.
And in the online world, having the right tools at your disposal is very important.
There are many features to a hosting service so be diligent and research them well.

When I purchase hosting for any of my sites, I prefer to use HostGator.com.
For me, they are the simplest, most effective and easist to use.
Their CPanel or control panel is more than I could ask for.
And you'd be pleasantly suprised at all the features they offer to their clients at no additional charge.

Obviously there is much more to it than that but it should give you some idea as to where to look when you are ready.

I'd be interested in hearing your opinions on domain registrars and hosting services.
If you'd like to share your thoughts, please do so by leaving your comment below.
And if you have had any negative experiences with either type of service, feel free to share that as well.

Consistent Website Traffic... Will It Ever Come?

Where In The (Internet) Hell Did My Website Traffic Go?

Ever have one of those days...

When you just don't know, if you really know, what you actually think you know?

Sorry I couldn't resist using that line:)

Well I'll tell you what, I'm having one of those days and it's causing
me to question things. Maybe someone can help...

My website has been MIA in the rankings for nearly a week now.
I've looked it over so many times I can't stop picturing it in my mind
even after I leave the computer. My cpanel seems etched into my brain.

Normally I wouldn't sit down and write a post on it or for that matter
tell anyone. I'd fix it right off! But today after several new attempts of
trying to understand the Why?, I decided I could use some input from
other experienced marketers like yourself.

I should start by telling you that I searched high and low for the
answers to this problem. I searched forums and asked lots of questions,
I read everything I could find and then some. I went through my webmaster
tools to see if I had changed something that Google was unhappy with.

I though for certain, my site had been BANNED!

Luckily however, this wasn't the case and it had not been
banned but merely deranked to some extent. My site and all it's pages
were still indexed. It was merely caught up in the google shuffle or
google dance, as many of you might refer to it.

So, for a site that had been consistently showing up in the top of search,
for it's theme keywords for over 6 months and much of that time in the
top 3 or 4, it was now no longer ranking in the top 100 :(  Go figure!

Again luck played it's part because although Google had sent
the site backwards, Yahoo and Bing both had moved it up to #1.
What do ya know?

But how does one engine consider a website valuable and another a lump of coal?


I think it's all because of screwy metric and algorithm changes that
are done far more often than probably necessary. Then again....
I really don't know for certain. It's hard to keep up with someone that
changes their algorithms more than little girls like to change clothes.

So again, I ask myself, do I really know what I think I do?

Of course I do! Doubt is the obvious response when something throws
an unexpecting curveball your way. You're never certain you can hit it out,
you just rely on what you've learned and know to help you hit it.

When it comes to rankings, I have stood on top of the engines,
as tens of thousands of established and competing sites
sat seemingly complacent, in the valley below. I know many of you
know the feeling.

Content, SEO, indexing, bookmarking, article submissons,
the list, as you know, goes on and on. You could always be busy
with something site related if that was your plan.  And the there are
countless networks that you can join that have ways of helping sites
to rank higher but be careful, some of these can only help for a while.

In the end, they are not all created even nor are they all what they are
cracked up to be. Some could potentially get you banned from the engines
all together. Avoid the sneaky tricks and gimicks at all costs.

So where should focus be now???

I believe I just need to replicate the process and continue to keep myself
up to date with changes, new techniques as they develop and above all,
never stop learning.

Something else that I need to work on when dealing with giants like SE's
is patience because ultimately, we all know, rankings and standings
dictate our traffic which in turn brings our customers. And without customers,
I'm sure we all agree, we're broke. For now, I'll just be patient and see what
happens once the dance Is over.

So now I'd like to know your thoughts on the matter.
When it comes to dealing with search engines and fluctuating rankings.....

How often have you personally dealt with fluctuating rankings?

What were the necessary steps you took to find a solution?

Or, were you never able to make it back on top?

Please take a minute to share with the readers what you think.

Thank You for taking time out of your busy schedule to visit the Comeback Marketing Blog
I hope you found this useful if not helpful.

How To Get Free One-Way Backlinks..

Here is something I need to share with my niche site owners right away, so please forgive me for not breaking it down and explaining it in my own words. SS

How to Get Free One Way Backlinks Virally

One way backlinks are one of the best and most effective ways to get high ranking positions in search engines and milk these positions for targeted traffic. But getting quality one way links can be a tediously time consuming job.

(That is why I'm sharing this new system of free traffic I recently found with you)


Free Traffic System is a brand new project that helps you to get top quality one way links for free - unlimited number of one way links, because you build as many as you need. Moreover, Free Traffic System has integrated a brand new concept of viral marketing, rewarding its members with bonus one way links.

Before getting to the viral part of the project, it is important to explain where exactly you are getting these backlinks. The backlinks are built inside real blog posts, not in the footer or blogroll - in the very body of the real, unique blog post. This is the most safe way to build one way links, because you give real unique content to the visitors in the blog posts and search engines will always welcome it - search engines were created to help people in finding quality information in the Internet.

You get backlinks from relevant sites that belong to real people in different niches. It's a natural, safe and smart way to build backlinks for free. You submit one article to Free Traffic System and it converts into up to 60 top quality one way backlinks! And - unlike traditional article marketing - no one will delete your backlinks from the article, like they do when stealing your content from article directories.

The viral part of Free Traffic System is simple - they reward people for bringing others into this free project. You receive a BONUS backlink on every 3rd post that people whom you referred to Free Traffic System are making. This means you get bonus backlinks on article No 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, etc. of all people who got into the system via your unique affiliate link.

Every article can be republished on up to 30 sites in the Free Traffic System. This means that one article with your bonus link equals up to 30 backlinks from Free Traffic System. 2 articles = 60 bonus backlinks, 3 articles = 90 bonus backlinks. And this is in addition to the unlimited backlinks that you can build inside Free Traffic System yourself.

And the final perk of the viral strategy. If you add at least one WordPress blog to Free Traffic System, they instantly increase the number of bonus backlinks to you by 7%.

So, in total, here's what you get when you add Free Traffic System to your arsenal of traffic getting and automation tools:

- free backlinks
that you build yourself
- viral bonus backlinks for refering others
into the project
- viral bonus backlinks for adding your wordpress blog(s)
to Free Traffic System

With this free backlink building power, targeted traffic from search engines becomes just a matter of time.

Free Traffic System - Increase Targeted Website Traffic with FreeUnlimited One Way Links

I'm hoping to get a few readers together (who sign up for this service of course) to create a nice review from different view points and obviously different niches as well.

Thank You for Visting and Do Comeback now Ya Hear?

Videos- Secret Google Page1 Mind Movies

Getting To Page One Mind Movies Case Study Part 1 from Tim Buchalka on Vimeo.

30 Days to Affiliate Commissions or Else?

Thank You for visiting my Comeback Marketing Blog. It's greatly appreciated.

I'll start off by admitting it's been a while since I had time to focus on developing and maintaining this blog.
I do apologize for the lack of new content, I've been very busy learning about and building optimized niche sites.
So far I have 4 sites in the works and several more on the way and I owe it to the 30DC for their amazing teachings.

Prior to joining the 30DC last year, I was involved in CPA advertising and search marketing.
Ya, I played with blogs and sites but was having lots of difficluty in getting things to work the way I needed them to.
It was obvious to me at that point that I either needed a technical minded partner or I would have to learn something else.

I again decided to try JV'ing to see if I could, in exchange for my writing skills, find a tech to work with.
Unfortunately, because I was still a young copywriter, I didn't have many takers.
But I kept on learning, reading and following instructions from the Pro's I followed.
I was determined to make a career out of this.

Eventually I decide to try out the 30DC. I figured that thru an in depth training program, I could systematically mark off my list,
the things that I needed to accomplish in order for my site to become a success.


The 30DC taught me to start at square one. This is something I think many people skip.
I also believe that many people don't have the patience to do it right and step by step.
In this instant gratification style world we live in, everybody is looking for a quick fix or an easy button.
Everyone wants a turn key site that just makes money from the time you set it up without having to run it.
In my opinion, that's just wishful thinking.

In the 30DC, I was able learn many additional tips and tricks that have helped to get my new sites ranked.
I was honestly blown away by the program and today would recommend it to anyone.

The forum, the training videos, pdf's and podcasts make learning the materials very convenient.
The support system is also excellent and I can't say that about too many companies today as I'm sure you'd agree.

The 30 Day Challenge also shares with you the software and tools you'll need to stay ahead of the competition.
Having the right tools, as we all know, makes any job easier and is ultimately key..
The best part of the 30DC, is that they give you free trials of their partner services.
You actually get to put these tools to use to see what they can do for you and your business.
What's better than try before you buy? Ok, free would be better. But it's close enough for me.

In my opinion, the 30Day Challenge is the first stop for anyone considering building income earning sites
and ranking them well enough to actually get good traffic.

So whether you have a brick and mortar style business that you want to create a presence for online
or you want a site for your affiliate marketing efforts, the 30 Day Challenge is the way to go.

If I were you and I'm not but If I were you, before paying for ANY high priced site building program, IM or affiliate training,
I'd give the 30DC a look. You'll be glad you did and when you see it for yourself, you'll be back to thank me..

To Health And Success,
Shane AKA~Cominback
