We’re having our second webinar training on blogging THIS Wednesday!
Title: “MaxPro Members Training: Blogging 202″
Date: Wednesday, August 26th, 2009
Time: 2:00 PM Eastern Standard Time
As always this training is only available to MaxPro Members. This weeks training will be like nothing you’ve ever seen. We’re gonna show you guys some stuff about blogging that you probably never even knew existed!
Remember if you have questions that you want covered, please add them below as a comment. This is perect if you can’t be there live and have to watch the recording later.
This post is gonna be a little bit wordy, so I’ll just get right to it.
First off, Backlinks are incoming links to a website or web page. As far as search engines are concerned, the number of backlinks can determine the popularity or importance of any specific site or blog.
The number of backlinks pointing to your website is one of the highest determining factors in terms of where your site/blog will rank in search engines.
So here’s what you can do to get more backlinks and make your site/blog more relevant.
First determine the keywords for your site/blog. Find at least 5 great keywords that are extremely relevant to the point you’re trying to get across. If you’re niche is fishing, then use keywords like:
-Fishing tips
-Bait and tackle
-Fishing poles
-How to fish
-Rod and reel
I just thought of those off the top of my head and I barely EVER go fishing. So you can definitely think of something that goes hand in hand with your topic(s).
So if you’ve got your keywords down, it’s time to search for relevant blogs based on your keywords.
I’ve used programs like comment kahuna and comment hut and they’re good, but I like using the old fashioned approach with google’s blog search.
Save this link or just type it in, but either way it’s http://google.com/blogsearch
If that links not working, go to google.com then click on the more tab, followed by the ‘even more’ tab. You’ll then see the blog search on the very next page.
Okay, so you’re in there and you’re ready to use your keywords.
Here’s what you’re gonna do…
Take your keywords and put them in quotes in the blog search box.
Example: “fishing tips”
Doing this is going to bring up the most relevant and highest ranking blogs with the keyword fishing tips. Start going through all of these blogs.
**Important note here**
YOU NEED TO ACTUALLY READ ALL OF THESE POSTS.
Here’s why…
For one, you want to come across as intelligent and like you actually read the post.
And secondly, you’ll be placing your backlink into the comments.
So, if I were to leave a comment on a fishing tips blog, this is what I would do.
Name: Bait and tackle
Hey, that’s a great article! (type here, whatever interested you the most about the article) ect. ect. ect.
So you see what I did there.
Most blogs are gonna want you to place your name in there. So use one of your keywords as your name. This will increase your comments relevancy.
Next, in your actual comment, be relevant to what the writer has actually posted.
Finally, when placing your name at the bottom, do it like this:
I suggest copying that code and saving it somewhere on your machine. Just make sure when you use it for yourself, you place your actual website and keyword in the appropriate places.
Leave all of your comments with that general idea and you’re sure to increase not only your search engine ranks, but your daily traffic as well.
Alright ya’ll. I’m getting outa here! Friday’s team meeting is coming up soon, so I’ll talk with you all later!
Anybody who ever told you “change your mindset” or “believe and achieve” probably had good intentions.
But that’s not really all there is to being successful in business, life, or any other possible field.
You can define success anyway you want to, but the way I define it, and the way that makes everything I’ve ever thought about being successful seem like a big joke, is like this:
Success is not a mind set. Success does not fall into your lap. Success is not having money handed to you without you lifting a finger.
If you’re anything like me, you’re NOT okay with that. I’m not saying you can only have true success through back breaking labor. In fact, I think the complete opposite. I’d rather work smart than hard any day!
All I’m saying is that if you’re waiting for the right opportunity to come along and take you with it, well you’ve got another thing coming.
We know what success is not. So what is it really?
Success is determined by one thing, and one thing only. You’ve probably been to enough seminars to know that the one thing is you.
But here’s what a lot of people sadly fail to realize.
Success is not going to fall into your hands and once you get over that little fact, you’ll be much better off.
Let’s get into my one of my favorite examples:
THE SUCCESS DREAMER:
The success dreamer is one of the biggest ‘fantasizers’ you’ll ever come across. They spend so much time dreaming about their perfect life with their millions of dollars, mansions and cars, and fame that they never even ask themselves the real questions.
Questions like: -How am I gonna get myself into that positon?
-What can I improve upon?
-Who can I get involved with to make this a reality?
-Where do I go to accelerate this goal?
If you want to be a true success and not just a success dreamer, those are some pretty obvious questions to ask. Unfortunately, those are questions that hardly ever get answered, which is why out of the billions of people on the planet only a small percent of the world are considered wealthy or successful.
Parents know if your kid wants to play the guitar, you’re going to do anything in your power to help them achieve that. You typically know how to answer the questions I’ve asked above. You want what’s best for your family.
Perhaps enroll them in guitar lessons. You’ll somehow put your child in a position to achieve their goal.
You need to treat yourself like you’d treat your child. You’re not going to achieve ANYTHING in life if you’re not putting yourself in a position to succeed
Take the necessary and all too obvious steps to achieving. Whatever it is doesn’t matter.
All you gotta do it this: - First off, find what you want to do in life. What you wanna be. All that inspirational stuff. You know what I’m talking about.
- Next find out more about that particular path. Research it. The internet is a great tool if you use it wisely.
- After you’ve done your research, surround yourself with people who are doing the same thing you’re doing. Remember, your network determines your net worth.
- And finally, just take the natural steps towards whatever it is you’re trying to achieve.
If you try everyday of your life you cannot fail! Eventually you will attain whatever it is you were reaching for.
And now I’ll leave you with this.
And it’s probably the most inspirational yet incredibly simplified line you’ll read in this entire article.
“NEVER BACK DOWN….NEVER SURRENDER!”
If you can follow that rule, you’ll save yourself of lot of sleepless nights.
Check that one out if you ever get stuck in the proverbial mud.
Anyway, after I read that post, implimented the ideas, and put to use the suggestions given, I had my idea for the next blog post I wanted to create.
You see, it’s like this. One moment I had not a clue of what I wanted to write about.
The very next moment I had a pretty solid idea of what I was going to rant on.
And it’s this…
Whenever you visit The Max Pro Blog, it’s usually for one of two reasons.
Number 1, you Just to check up on us– I know you want to know how we’re doing, right?
And number 2, and probably the biggest reason, because you’re seeking some kind of information/answer.
First off, let me say that I hope what you’re looking for is here anytime you visit.
And secondly, the reason we tell you to visit our blog daily is because each day you visit, more and more valuable information has been posted.
We’re like a runaway train when it comes to information over here.
Good luck slowing us down..
The more we know, the more you will know and that’s the way (uh huh, uh huh,) we like it.
Think about it…
The more you know, the more you can impliment, and then obviously that means more money for you. And money in your pockets is money in our pockets.
I’m so serious when I tell you all this:
Add this blog to your favorites, write it down, do whatever you have to do so you remember to come back here daily!
And now here I am at the conclusion of my post, so following his tips on overcoming writers block definitely worked out for me.
You have to see it like this: You come in here with a problem or question and you’re gonna leave with a solution or answer. It’s all about implimenting the tools given to you.
A great thinker once said “If all you have is a hammer, then all your problems will be nails.”
Learn to use these tools given to you. Obstacles wont always be nails. So the hammer may not always come in handy for specific tasks. Be prepared. Learn how to use different tools for different jobs.
Take it the next level.
Remember, whether it’s writers block, or newbie questions , The Max Pro Blog is your one stop shop.
As always, thanks for hanging in there and I truly appreciate every single one of you.
For the past two years, I’ve been fortunate enough to work for an internet based company that’s been raking in the dough.
Before I began working here, I had this general idea that what they we’re doing was a scam. I literally had not a clue of what was going on. What was their operation?
I flat out didn’t know a thing.
So I was naturally interested in what was going on and since I was friends with the son of the president, I was able to hang around those most closely involved in the company. Over time I befriended all involved and eventually was given the opportunity to work on a project they had going on.
This was my chance and I knew I had to seize it.
It was some tiny little project where I listened to hours and hours of a live seminar they did and I was going to cut out all of the dead air, or bites that they couldn’t use. They were going to be packaging up an audio of all the best clips from their recent live seminar and I had to do the grunt work and cut the useless stuff…
Well, if this was my chance to get involved, I wasn’t going to pass it up.
I did it, and I did it well. (The best I could anyway) and it ended up being enough to get me a job that very next Monday. My first few months on the job it seemed strange to me that you could make such an exorbitant amount of money, while not being in the entertainment industry, sports, etc.
But, you know I began to study what I had free access to and one day it all clicked for me. I realized EXACTLY how they were making all this money.
This was seriously the best training I’d ever got my hands on.
So I kept studying and now I’m one of a select few in our group who is a dedicated member of the Max Pro marketing team. I’ve found that by creating success for myself, I create success for Max pro. You see, you can’t have one without the other with The Max Pro System. You simply cannot.
I used to think that my job was to bring in money for the company and that was it. I had to get out of that frame of mind. What I finally came to grips with was that not only was I making money for the company I worked for, but I was generating money for myself by implementing the tools they were teaching me.
I’m confident enough to say that if my next move in life was to begin my own internet business, I could easily have a game plan mapped out and ready and I would definitely know what I’d need ahead of time. If you’re reading this post, you only need to realize one thing and one thing only.
It comes from the late, Billy Maysand he said:
“Life’s a pitch, then you buy.”
Billy was one of the most recognizable faces on television in the entire world. The guy could flat out pitch any product. He could show you step for step why you needed that product. This guy was perhaps the greatest, if not the greatest, pitchman of all time.
However, he had one major rule that he always abided by through his entire career spanning decades. If he didn’t believe in a product, he would not promote it.
Now I’ll ask you this. Do you really believe in everything that Max Pro is offering? Or do you perhaps think it’s too good to be true. If that’s you, all I can say to you is this:
Get behind this movement. Believe in it, work with it, and use all the training materials you have to your advantage. We’ve mapped out everything you can do in our system.
We literally take care of EVERYTHING short of driving the traffic and we even train you how to do that step by step with exact methods!
Drive the traffic and we’ll do the rest.
Thanks for hanging in there during my post/rant! I appreciate each and everyone you!
I recently had the opportunity to talk with a partner about how Darren’s email campaigns work and the order in which they’re sent out. This information is golden so I’ll go ahead and share it with you guys. Here it is. Word for word, what I’ve shared with our partner:
“The process begins when the customer opts in at your Max Pro Squeeze page.
That’s a great question. And if you really want to get technical about it, Merriam-Webster describes a domain name as a sequence of usually alphanumeric characters that specifies a group of online resources and that forms part of the corresponding Internet addresses.
I think I speak for all of us when I say…
HUH?
So I’ll ask the question one more time.
What is a domain name?
Let’s think of it like this:
Imagine if names didn’t exist. Imagine that instead of having a name your friends and family knew you by, we could only be identified by our telephone number. It’s not difficult imagining how hard it would be to remember EVERY telephone number of your friends, family, and even casual acquaintances.
I know…It’s crazy.
But here’s where the light turns on.
Names do exist. And so do domain names. And it makes things a whole heck of a lot easier.
Practically every computer in the world that is connected to the Internet will have what is called an I.P. Address. They’re all different, but they look similar to this: 208.77.188.166 Think of an I.P. Address as being your own telephone number. Now, I guess you could go around remembering all your favorite website’s I.P. Addresses if you REALLY wanted to.
But honestly, why go through all of that trouble?
With domain names, you don’t have to. They effectively mask the I.P. Address by using a catchy name or phrase that is much easier to remember. Kind of like your name!
So that’s really all there is to a domain. It’s not nearly as complicated as they may make you think. You too can get the idea now of what a domain name is and why we have them.
Whether you’re just getting started or you’re a seasoned veteran, read our posts daily for tons of information to help you succeed and reach your goals!
We’ll talk later,
Mark Antoni
P.S. Stay tuned for my next blog post titled “THE FANTASTIC FIVE” We’re gonna learn the 5 simple steps you’ll need to take before you can choose a winning domain name.

closest to me discussing anything interesting.
I love challenges. Seeing the challenge, meeting the challenge, and overcoming the challenge. And perhaps even more importantly, I love helping others do the same.
