Internet Marketing: Using A Private Label Rights Article As a Basis For Your Blog Post

You have to alter it enough to make it unique, original content: You cannot just copy and paste it and put it on your blog post. Why? When Google looks at it, if your post is exactly like another post out there, it will not index your post, and believe me, you want to have your blog post indexed by Google. That way, when people search phrases out there, you will have your blog displayed in their search results.

Imagine that you went to a store to find throw pillows for your couch. The sales person brings out five pillows. You ask if there are more. The salesperson scoops up the original five pillows, goes to the back room and emerges with the same five pillows. The salesperson gives them different names. You are not amused. The same thing goes for Google. It will not waste it’s time and yours bringing you duplicate results.

You will need to take a paragraph or two and re-write them so that they will have content that is deemed unique and original. “How much is that?” you ask. Typically, the answer is 40%. You could take the sentence “throw the ball” and re-write it to say “grasp the baseball and hurl it with as much force as you can muster”. Same basic concept, but the second one is a little more descriptive and is not the same.

I avoid this on my blog  by writing everything on that site from scratch. That way, I know that it is unique.

Have a GREAT day! (More to follow)

A Positive Mental Attitude, You Don’t Have to Wait

Nobody likes to wait anymore. I work as a cashier and if some customers can’t walk right up to the cashier, pay their money and be gone, they get frustrated and angry. And that is if they don’t have a customer in line in from of them. Well, there is good news: when it comes to a positive mental attitude, you do not have to wait. You don’t have to wait until you win the lottery, you don’t have to wait until you have 1,000 visitors to your website, you don’t have to have your 100th sale. You can have a positive mental attitude immediately.

The choice is yours.

I find it helpful to reframe things. If, there is 10% fewer visits to my website, I will look at it as an opportunity to make improvements so that those visitors come back. Maybe I need to revamp my title and have it include more keyword phrases. Perhaps the advertising for the site is in the wrong area or has the keyword for the pay-per-click ad wrong. Instead of kicking myself with the negatives, I will look for the positive aspects.

This helps in Internet Marketing success. Too often people will quit when they have only tried one approach, and that approach was only tried half-heartedly. You will find that your energy level and your success will grow when you focus on all of the things that you have done right, and if some efforts haven’t been successful, then move one to a different activity: no where does it say that there is only one way to win at this business. While some have succeeded using their own method, you may not have enjoyed that same level of success.

You got to find your own path.

Have a GREAT day!

That Positive Mental Attitude Is Your Friend, Not Your Enemy

Admittedly, it is not always to easiest to maintain a positive mental attitude. You turn on the television to catch a bit of the evening news and you hear all the depressing stories about foreclosures, business failures, housing prices slipping, high unemployment, and perhaps you find lots and lots of things that you can start to dwell on that will depress you. It is no wonder why so many people are on anti-depressents because it is easier to take a small pill than to face the onslaught of bad news without it. What can you do? It seems hopeless sometimes.

It isn’t hopeless.

In order to succeed in life, in business, in any venture, you have to find a way to make it work. I am not advocating sticking your head in the sand and dreaming that when you emerge, the world will be a brighter, better place: It doesn’t work that way. I have been guilty of avoiding things, and I am sure that many others have been excellent at that as well. I have found that I have been much happier and much more successful from spending a lot less time watching television and letting it drain my mind and fill it with negative thought. I will occassionally catch the local news for a bit, but I cannot say that it has to be a regular part of my day.

There is so much to do out there that can fill your life with purpose and reward. When I was in college, I was introduced to a steady diet of positive mental attitude literature and tapes by my trumpet instructor and I will still ocassionally pick up on of those books and “recharge” my inner batteries so that I can face the world again. You can do the same thing. Replace a half hour of television watching with a half hour of positive mental attitude reading, listening, or doing. The rewards are immeasurable.

Have a GREAT day!

What Does It Take To Get You To BELIEVE In The Power of a Positive Mental Attitude?

There is great power in a positive mental attitude. Sometimes, when things are not going exactly as you have planned, it is difficult to realize that a positive mental attitude can help you, especially when you are working at succeeding as an Internet Marketing entrepreneur. We all have read the advertisements about how somebody instantly was earning  $1,000 a day and there was little or no work involved. Sorry, but that doesn’t happen by accident. If you went behind the scenes and followed the successful Internet marketers, then you would see countless hours of research, programming, and failures before the great success came. Success will come to you…

…but not without having expended a great deal of energy.

This is not to discourage you, but to educate you that you CAN be successful on the Internet, but you will have to do a bit of work. Just knowing that others have succeeded before you will help to fuel your fire. You will need to try many things, and you will want to try the things that work and discard those that do not. If a method fails for you, devote no more time and energy toward that but instead pour more into the things that work for you. 

 Success breeds success.

But you gotta believe. Have faith and KNOW that it will pay off in the long run.

Have a GREAT day!

It’s Tuesday, Do You Know Where You Positive Mental Attitude Is?

When on the road to Internet Marketing success, it cannot be emphasized enough that a key to that success is a positive mental attitude. This attitude is not just for the first few days and it will all be easy and downhill from there, but it is a need that needs to have a constant flow of good input in order to be effective. New Year’s Day is a great example. Traditionally people are all excited on that day because it is a new year and an opportunity to start fresh. People often choose to start diets and exercise programs then (why do you think that gyms advertise so much during the Christmas through January time-frame?). There is excitement and somebody may go to the gym every day for a whole week.

Then other influences creep in and make it easier to quit than to press on. They skip going on the Monday after one week and tell themselves “It’s okay, it is only one day, I will make it up tomorrow.”

Tomorrow never comes.

You should do something every single day to feed your positive mental attitude so that, like a muscle, it becomes stronger over time. I am not suggesting that you are “on fire” 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, but a steady flame does so much more to evenly temper you mettle and you will be more successful in the long run.

That’s how I became successful with my ebook Never Surrender!!. Every day a little bit more was done on the book. Had it been attempted in one or two full days of work, it would not have turned out as well as it did. Instead, small bites were taken and the success was built upon.

You can do the same with your Internet Marketing.

There is  lot of information out there and it can be overwhelming, but when you tackle it a small piece at a time. You will find that you will be much more successful in the long run!

Have a GREAT day!

How Can You Have A Positive Mental Attitude On A Monday?

THAT is an excellent question! It is a question that you probably ask every Monday. In the traditional work week, one would work eight hours each day Monday through Friday. Of course, time now are not what we would call traditional. There are so many variations of the forty-hour week now: Some people work four 10 hour shifts with three days off, some people work 3 twelve hour days with four days off, some work a blend of that with 3 ten hour days, 1 six hour day, and a short 4 hour day. Whatever your work week is and whenever it begins, the first day of that work week is usually the toughest to keep a positive mental attitude on.

It is a challenge.

But, it is one that can be met and easily surpassed if you have the habit of a positive mental attitude. It was mentioned a few posts ago that you can choose to look on the bright side of life if you please. I am not advocating a PollyAnna-type of approach to where everything is bright and shiny and happy, because it is not. Train yourself to find the good things that are happening instead of focusing on the bad things. Your mind is a wonderful tool that has the ability to draw you toward that which you think about. If you have a sniffle and you focus on how poor your are going to feel, you will start to feel worse. If, on the other hand, you focus on how good the other parts of you feels, your sniffle will diminish in importance.

It works this way with Internet Marketing as well. If you focus on how little money you have and how little money your website is generating, despite how well-planned and well-designed it may be, you will continue to get little trickles of traffic to your website and pennies in your pocket.

Focus on how well you are doing! See what changes make more traffic come your way! Be flexible enough to make and accept changes as they assist you in your goal to become financially independent (or you may have a smaller goal of making an extra $100 a month, but you don’t have to limit yourself to just that).

What you think about, you bring about. For example, I have been thinking about writing an ebook on how to eliminate credit card debt fot the last few months, and because that was a dominating thought in my head, it finally came into being (you can get your own copy here). It works the same way with any goal you may have, it all begins with a positive mental attitude.

Have a GREAT day!

Positive Mental Attitude - Always Look on the Bright Side of Life

As a holder of a degree in music, I love songs! Not any one particular genre, but songs in general. When I think of positive mental attitude I think of the Monty Python song Always Look on the Bright Side of Life.Whatever you focus on, you tend to gravitate toward. If all you ever think about is how you are poor and you don’t have enough money, guess what? … You will be poor and not have enough money. If, instead, you focus on the things that you have going your way and how successful those are, you will be harvesting feelings of empowerment and success.

It is up to you!

Instead of focusing on the $1,000 that you don’t have, focus on the $100 that you do. It is much like the parable of the three servents of a master who were entrusted with the master’s money while he was away. Two of the servants used the money to make more money for the master and they were rewarded with more responsibility and praise. But one who simply looked on the negative side and didn’t want to lose what was given him hid the money and had only that money to return to his master. His indecisiveness and laziness and fear caused him to lose what was to be his reward.

What reward are YOU missing because of your fear and laziness? You know that you will get out of something what you put into it and that you should not fear.  In fact, I recall reading a Zig Ziglar book, See You At The Top that stated the fear stand for False Expectations Appearing Real. Be fearless and you will improve your chance for success.

Have a GREAT day!

Internet Marketing - Lay The Groundwork

The idea behind Internet Marketing is to drive traffic to your website. Having information and services that fill a need will certainly help you in your endeavor. Finding a target audience is another key: you need to find out what sort of things interest your target audience and you cater your website to meet that curiosity. Placing random thoughts, ideas, and offers will draw an occasional random member of your target audience. They may or may not use you as a source of information and, when you offer something to purchase, may or may not make that purchase.

This is where the difficult part comes in. Some Internet Marketers will tell you that you will have a wesbite up and running and drawing hundreds, if not thosands of people with cash in hand, all eager to finance the life of your dreams. Certainly, the Internet provides the opportunity to have more money for your life, but nobody is going to walk up to you on the street and hand you the blueprints for success.

You have to work at it.

And work at it tirelessly. It has already been mentioned that you have to have a bit of a positive mental attitude when it comes to attracting people and directing traffic toward stopping at your website. You have to research keywords to see which ones you should include in your daily (yes, I said daily) entries onto your blog or your website.  That is the foundation of your website. You don’t have to be a great writer to write every day. There is plentyof articles that you can use (just change them up a bit) at websites like sampleresources.com. Read other sites to see what they are talking about. Jot down their ideas, or better yet, create a swipefile of sample writings that you can draw from when you happen to hit a dry spell. 

Keep up the good work, and have a GREAT day!!

Positive Mental Attitude: Help Set The Tone

When it come to getting traffic to your website, it helps to have a Positive Mental Attitude. You want to attract people to read what you have to say and to purchase what you are offering as a solution for them. I can recall some of the training that I have had in sales when I worked for a major telecommunications company (”Can You Hear Me Now?”). They did not encourage you to be negative. People hear enough negative things out there in the world now, why at fuel to their fire.

Make your website to be a place of excitement that people may have the chance to dream for what they want to do with their own lives. Try to offer something unique that is going to fill a need that they have in their lives. Perhaps they are overweight. You wouldn’t want a sebsite that is full of fat and unattractive people. You would want to have a website that has healthy, fit, and trim people that are living life. You typically don’t go to the Internet to find things that will lower your self-esteem.

Fill a need and offer a solution to people and people will be drawn to your site. Find a way to answer a question that they may have. Offer a way to achieve a goal that they have. It takes work and research because nobody is going to have somebody do everything for them. Is there money to be made out there? YES!! Can YOU do it? YES!! Will it happen in one hour with no effort? No. What you put into your endeavor, you will see return. Put in a half-hearted effort, and you will get a half-hearted result.

Have a GREAT day!!

The Key To Success In Making Money On The Internet: Belief

Somebody told me that it should be listed as a secret ingredient to success, but it doesn’t need to be a secret anylonger. It is true what is said when it is said “whether you believe you can, or you believe you can’t, you are right.” This is especially true with making money on the Internet. There is an unlimited supply of money out there waiting to align itself with you, but you have to believe.

There is strenth in the power of belief. First you have to transition from “like” to “belief”. What is that? Simple. Look at the difference in intensity of these two statements: “I would like to make a million dollars on the Internet” and “I believe I will make a million dollars on the Internet.” The first statement has a light, almost airy feeling about it. There is no conviction. If ou say that to somebody else they will just smile and dismiss you and not think that you are well on your way to have a million dollars in your banking account.

The second statement, however, carries a certain amount of conviction with it. There is a definite-ness to that. People will be more apt to take you seriously if you utter that statement. Subconsciously, you start to attact things that will draw you closer to that goal and make it more of a reality.

This is not just about making money on the Internet, but it can have applications to any area of your life. Stay tuned for further details as there is so much to say and so little space in which to say it!

Have a GREAT day!
