Post your links free to 12 million FFA sites and ad boards:

Blastomatic Sign up form
Blastomatic Sign in link

Join Blastomatic using this Sign up form and be sure to use a marketing email. Note that you cannot change your email once you join as a free member. Also, your posts go to the default which is mostly business. (Misc. on some boards.)

Once you join and verify your account, you can sign in at url=http://www.etoolsonline.net/. Login and review the site, note the drop down menu contains the links you need to navigate to set your ad up, validate and submit.

Set up your ad, link, keywords.

Validate your email BEFORE attempting to send your ad. Once validated you can do your blast. When you go to that screen you will see the icon for validation. The main service which validates your email is "Validator" validator@validatedemail.com. Once you request validation you will receive an email to process your request, sometimes you end up with 2 emails. Note this service have an annoying pop in and unders which tend to defeat your blockers.

The first time you request validation you ususally also receive a couple other validation/verification emails. The other validation requests will come from auth@ffanet.com, sometimes from DTL, and occasionally from Monster.

Post your link one time in a 24 hour period. If you try to submit the same link from the same email address more than once in a 24 hour time period the ad will be rejected and you risk being banned for spamming.

Once you post you will receive several key verification links. One of them will be for TrafficWave. You only need to validate the main program once. The parent link will come with a validation code similar to this one 291031018050 and a link in which to confirm like this: http://ffa.trafficwave.net/cgi-bin/ffaADconfirm.pl?adcode=291031018050. Once you have verified the one link, this is all that is required for you listing to post throughout the Network.
Then, you will receive emails from individual board owners/pro members asking you to confirm or validate or verify. You do not. Those are their email ads to you and some have chosen to use those subject lines to force you to open their email ads.

When posting your links free to the boards remember you do get email. The links do roll off within a day (sometimes quicker) so you want to use your blaster daily to keep your links on the boards at all times. There are sites which offer permenant links and that will be a subject for another topic.

Once you have done the Mass Submit using Blast1, there is another feature called Blast2. This is primarily the area where you can confirm your link has posted.

Nature of Affiliate Links Affect Your Indexing at Search Engines

Part 2 of a series...
Are you a affiliate marketer? If you represent VIP Travel Rewards or Cashflowpc VOIP program then you are an affiliate marketer.

If you joined an online marketing company and earn commissions from selling that company products, than you are an affiliate for that company. But have you ever paused to consider the affiliate links given to you by your marketing company? Why should we even bother to look at the affiliate links? After all, we do not have any role in determining our links as they are all set by the company.

Now, if we have never stop to look at our affiliate links, then we should because the nature of the links do affect our indexing and marketing as an affiliate, especially if we use Google adwords. There are those of us who are using Google Adwords to advertise our Cashflowpc programs or even the VIPTravel rewards program.

Consider this: Here’s what you should also know that affects YOU, and which can work to YOUR advantage over every other affiliate out there: On January 6, 2005, Google dropped the bomb on everyone by announcing no more “url sharing.” This means that if you are involved in an affiliate program (such as any ClickBank selling any ebook program, or any other program where you have to use their web site addresses followed by either your account “nickname” or numeric ID), your ads at Google will mostly likely get permanently “disabled!”

The scariest part of all this is that MOST all other affiliate programs out there on the Internet are NOT prepared for Google’s new restrictive policy and continue to churn out these type of links that cannot be used for google adwords promotion. Also, in indexing of sites, most affiliate sites bearing the links in this manner fail to get indexed, and so do not enjoy search engine traffic.

While it is the responsibility of the marketing company to ensure alternatives to enable their affiliates to work around the problems, let me suggest some alternatives as solutions: First, you can build a Landing Page with YOUR own unique domain name and web site space online, and then from there you can have small ad blocks with your affiliate links directing people onward to your marketing company. This works very well.

Secondly, another alternative is for you to cloak your link or mask your link and perform some reformat on the links. There are links cloaking where you can change the link to other more friendly urls. Even online scripts that allow you to "shorthen" your url to a simple identifiable short url can be used. For example, in your Xtreamnet Safelists submitter or the Fastadsubmitter, there is available the Tracking facility where you can "mask" the link to a tangible identifiable url that is more friendly to the search engine for indexing.

Having said this, it is time for all marketing companies to address this issue rather than simply replicating websites with number ID's . With the developments in search engine listing, and online promotion methods, those marketing companies that are not responsive to new changes will suffer and affiliates will be sadly left behind.

So if you find difficulty in getting your sites indexed by the major search engines or if you find you cannot get your Google Adwords ads accepted, you can consider the above especially creating a landing page or a squeeze page to overcome the difficulties.

Market Your Cashflowpc Voucher using safe lists

(To get started read the article on safe lists found on http://cashflowpcmarketing.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=36)
You need:
Your voucher code and the sign up url
Ad copy
Safe list accounts

1. Once you joined Cashflowpc and completed your assignments from Joel, you were assigned 4 vouchers. Get those vouchers and the sign up link. On the forum is some basic ad copy. Copy that for yourself. You can use as is or modify. If you modify here are some suggested guidelines:

* Keep it factual. Do not hype. Do not misrepresent. You will notice that Cfpc has never hyped, told people they will become wealthy, overnight successes, build huge down lines or used any of the other tactics you see rampant on the Net. Their growth has been steady, consistent and backed by rock solid performance and delivering on promises.

* Focus has been on building organizations - hence the Voucher program and bringing products to market online as well as developing the Vortex Marketing Resources and the V-Vision Training Center and then bringing large groups into the overall organization.

So, you want to keep your ad copy to the point and truthful.

Your team will hopefully be with you for years to come. You want to a relationship with them based on facts - not hype
There is enough of that out on the Net already without you contributing to it. Lol. Place your voucher in the ad copy.

2. If you are just getting started with email marketing, review the articles pertaining to that medium. Then join the safe lists listed in the Center/forum. You will find them under Cashflowpc resources, Safe lists - recommended and offers. Once you join note the times in which your membership level can post ads. Each venue will vary. You may want to make a list and a schedule.


It is very important to post consistently.
Many people send out ads a day or two - maybe - and then get discouraged when they see no results. People need to see things multiple times before responding. You want to keep your ads out there so when that person does decide to respond he/she does so on YOUR ad - not someone else’s.

Many people will think “Oh, I sent that ad out for 2 weeks straight everyday now so no one is going to pay attention anymore.” Again, the above applies. Plus - the average safe list has at least 2 or more members joining per day. Those people could be brand new and never heard of Cashflowpc. They are new so they did NOT see your previous 2 weeks worth of ads. Keep them out there constantly.

It is recommended that you vary your subject lines however! Mix things up. Try out new lines. If something works - let it go a few days. When it stops replace it with another subject line. There are suggested lines on your forum.

Another consideration is WHERE you are promoting. On the forum are some places to get you started. Constantly seek out new venues. Most safe lists have free memberships. Join as many as you can handle. Add to your resources constantly.
If you find a list becomes unresponsive to a particular ad, simply change tactics and market something else for awhile.

I am especially partial to multi-topic ads. Since I own many venues I craft my ads to incorporate as many of them as I can - then link them to my Cashflowpc business. For example - I will write an ad for my exchanges: “Free to join, get paid to surf http://www.xtreamsurf.com then LINK it to my Cfpc business. “Looking for a great f.ree business? Then my voucher code and sign up link. Market your Cashflowpc business on all the Xtream sites. Join our Marketing Resource Center today http://xtreamsubmitter.safelisthosting.us/

This gives me 3 separate subject lines to work with. Someone is bound to be interested in one of them. Once they open my ad they see my Cashflowpc voucher or my website that promotes my voucher http://myweb.ecomplanet.com/XTEA3488

Keys to safe list marketing:
*Do it consistently
*Do it often
*Use as many lists as you can handle
*Vary your subject lines and ad content
*Try different strategies

Cashflowpc and Search Engine Indexing

There is an issue getting Cashflowpc and VIP Travel Rewards basic affilite links accepted by the Search Engines. I addressed this with Peter Lim and asked if he could give us some suggestions. This is his reply 12-16-05:

Hi Cherie,
Let me share some insights with you on the problem you have raised. It has been an adopted practice for the search engines to refuse indexingof affiliate pages if they are a replicate of the PRINCIPAL site withjust a number to reference the affiliate site or the affiliate member's ID.

This were changes made about a year ago. This explains why the earlier sites are indexed, and when the search engines discover that there are a lot of other affiliate sites coming in with the same content and same server, they won't get listed, for the later ones.

Perhaps Cashflowpc and vip travels were not apprised of this by their techs. If the affiliate uses a name eg. cheriehalliday in her identity and this goes into the url, the chances of it being indexed is higher, but when an affiliate uses some sort of numbers ch1288 her chances of being indexed for these affiliate sites, especially the later ones is lower.

You are getting good listings in MSN search engine for your Cashflowpc sites because Cashflowpc likes a lot of postings to classifieds, ffas' etc and consider your site to be popular- they get links into the ffas' and classifieds, and that is why you are being indexed high in MSN. However this does not really work with other search engines like Yahoo and Google.

Yahoo likes onsite factors while Google depends on a lot of offsite optimisation. That is why each affiliate should not be issued sites bearing ID's and replicated from a principal site. The obvious solutions are:

1. create feeder sites to the affiliate sites - NOT doorway pages. For example I have http://www.cashflowpc.biz as a feeder site to the cashflowpc biz

2. Casflowpc or any online marketing entity to issue sites with member's name embedded as sub-domains ( not affiliate codes but members name ).

3. Use a masker or a link cloaker - change the affiliate url to adifferent link bearing member's name or some name, not affiliate codes.

Solution 3 may be the easiest way out..for example this facility is provided for under your XtreamNet submitter you are running and under the fastadsubmitter that Debra is running. There are also free softwares to do the affiliate cloaking. Affilaite cloaking is not illegal or a harmful practice. It is in fact an acceptable practice to prevent affiliate sales theft.

More later..
Regards,
Peter Lim

As mentioned above, there are several ways around getting your sites into the Search Engines but it requires some creativity and work on your part. Also as Peter states, my sites are postitioned well for a number of reasons:

* I have created many linked sites which are accepted by the Search Engines and index well. These are a few examples:

http://myweb.ecomplanet.com/XTEA3488/
http://myweb.ecomplanet.com/XTRE4999/
http://myweb.ecomplanet.com/XTRE8843/
http://myweb.ecomplanet.com/XTRE1509/

* I am a Diamond member and have my unique (and therefor acceptable) website:
http://xtreamnet-cfpc.com/

* I have been posting to the Search Engines on a constant basis since 9-04

* I blast constantly to the ffa sites, add to traffic exchanges and etc since 9-04 (thus creating the popularity Peter mentions.)

* I link to ALL my own websites starting with http://www.xtreamsurf.com

* I have several blogs which I then ensure are kept current with articles pertaining to Cashflowpc and now VIP Travel Rewards

* I do consistant email marketing which helps with clicks to the links and then gives further boost to the Search Engine rankings.

I have not done a lot of short or tiny url work or tracking. I do recommend the short or tiny url suggestion. Ad tracking links - depending on where created sometimes can be too long. You can try both routes and see what works for you.

How To Get A Steady Stream Of Free Search Engine Traffic

(Part 1 of a series...) What is the worth of a steady stream of free search engine traffic to you? If you are an internet marketer, search engine traffic is pure gold! Why is this so?

Consider this: When a person searches for the item or information that you are offering on your website using a search engine, that person is someone who is interested in whatever you are offering. He is a quality targeted prospect! Mutiply this scenario by hundred of times, and you have a horde of targeted prospects looking up your product or message on your website.

The question is how can you get the search engines to list or index your website and how can you move up the ranks and be at the top of the search engines?

The first and most important step in your search engine traffic building process
is your construction of your website - namely the use of the proper content
And this begins by the inclusion of highly optimised keywords. Again, consider this situation by a process of intelligent "reverse-engineering"

Suppose you wish to build a website that revolves around the keyword "email marketing". You can "intelligently" search for this keyword in say the Yahoo search engine and find the top ranking websites. Then analyze the top ranking websites by means of their keywords, keywords density, keyword placement - these are the onsite factors that we can find out from these sites which are our "competitors" for search engine traffic.

You can also analyse these top listed websites for their backlinks to see who are linking to them and which lend support to their high rankings. This is the main offsite factor that we should work on to intelligently uncover what makes our competitors tick and their websites ranked so highly.

Before you throw up your hands in frustration because all these sound so
difficult and foreign to you, there are tools and softwares that help out on
these important steps fairly quickly once you have mastered them.
Now suppose you know the onsite-factors and the main offsite-factor that drives these competitor sites to their high ranks, what you can do is just to do something more than them for your website to compete with them and to even outrank them! For example, you can uncover who are those who are linking to your competitor, and you can request links from the same entities linking to your competitor....and you move beyond those links with more links of your own!

You can uncover the keyword density of the Number 1 ranked website who is your competitor and adopt a similar keyword density, as an example. What you are doing is in fact optimising your websites so that they rank high and so that your website is not hidden somewhere in the bottom of the search engine rankings where no one ever gets to discover your site.

By this technique of onsite and offsite optimisation, you can dominate the search engines for your selected keywords, and get a horde of quality search engine traffic to your website daily! Peter Lim

Meatloaf, marketing and Cashflowpc

If you have ever made meatloaf you know that there is only one way to do it properly: you have to eventually get your hands down in that mixture of meat, spices and sauce and mix it all up and then shape it and put it in the pan to cook. Marketing is the same way. No matter what, you need to take your business, all your marketing resources, put your hands in the mixture and get with it.

Online, it takes many resources to make a marketing campaign - email advertising with safelists, safeadlists, blasters, lists, ffa sites and other venues; traffic with surf sites, search engine advertising and posts, ffa posts, billboard ads and other venues and many other other kinds of advertising.

Probably the number one expense in terms of TIME and money will be your marketing. There simply is no other way to get people to YOUR site or sign up for you voucher then to get out there and send your ads and spend the time it takes to get the credits you need TO send your ads.

The Cashflowpc Marketing forum, in conjunction with the Cashflowpc/Vortex Resource Center and all the modules found in the VMS MICRO Marketing system is designed to assist you in your marketing: finding resources and offers and then helping you understand what each venue does and providing information on how to use them to your advantage. Then, you need to get your hands in the mixture and make it all work, shape it, stick it the the oven and let it cook. In time you have traffic to your Cashflowpc sites, sign ups to your team, products sold. In other words: a successful business!
To your success,
Cherie Halliday

Safe list Submitters are powerful tools:

Safelist Submitters are powerful tools which AUTOMATE your safe list marketing. Using a submitter like Cashflowpc Marketing Resource Center you can join a number of safe lists and then set your ads to auto send once you have validated with the lists. You can also manage your safe list memberships with the Vacation on/off functions, resend welcome letters to validate lists if you missed them, use box cleaners to keep your email manageable and etc.

The basic function of a submitter is pretty simple: it sends your ads out to the safelists automatically based on your membership level at the submitter. So, at a set time the submitter sends out your saved ad to all the lists in the database. The safelists receive your email and then make a decision:

1. Accept the email if it is time to do so and sends it on to the list membership. Each list has it's own schedule of when members can send email - all based on their membership criteria. For free members this can range from 1 day to 1 week.

2. Reject the email. It will check your membership level and then decide if:
a. it is time for you to send an email to the members
b. you are on or off vacation/hold
c. if you have a membership.

What ever occurs, the list sends a report back to the submitter which you can then view. You will also see on your reports Failed to login and/or Not available. This usually occurs when a site is offline or there are server issues or the servers fail to communicate with each other.
Sometimes it also means you do not have a membership with the lists. Running the Join function on a regular basis helps you keep up with that.

Managing your safelists through your submitter is easily accomplished and it is recommended you run vacation off and check on the state of your ads and lists every few days. Many people will use more than one submitter for their marketing using different user ids and email addresses. Owning more than one submitter subscription is an effective way to endure wide and constant coverage with your email marketing to safe lists.

This submitter offer specials for Cfpc members. Once you join/purchase your subscription, email the applicable Admins to receive what ever they are offering:
XtreamNet Marketing Center Purchase Pro, receive free upgrade to Executive.

Cashflowpc offers many aspects for the business owner:

Cashflowpc is an opportunity which offers a variety of products and venues for the members to market. Emphasis through the end of 2005 and into 2006 continues to focus on team building and the prime vehicle for gaining sign ups to your team remains the Voucher Program. The Voucher itself is worth $199. This is one aspect to craft your marketing campaigns around.

Some example email ads, subject lines and a sample website, blog and adblaster idea are posted for your use and consideration at the Cashflowpc Marketing Forum in this overall section.

Sometimes - you need to get creative. You can use the Voucher of course to promote, however other aspects work well and you may want to vary your ads and subject lines. For example:

* Use the products themselves to gain sign ups. Market the VoIP for example and then tell them to NOT sign up on your link but rather join on your voucher first AND THEN purchase the VoIP under their own business. You gain a sign up, they save money, you still get a small commission.

* Use the Cashflowpc marketing resource center as an incentive to join Cashflowpc. Everyone needs advertising resources. Lots of resources are found in one convenient spot - something you can use to promote your voucher with.

What ever aspect you use, remember that PERSISTANCE is the key. You must post to as many resources, as often as you can day after day, week after week, month after month, even year after year. It is adviseable that you seek out new resources constantly. And, you need many different KINDS of resources: traffic, safelists, ffa, search engine, paid to, and etc.

Probably the most time consuming and expensive aspect of your Cashflowpc business (or any business) is advertising/marketing. Online you can find many free resources - however usually there is a trade off for your time: time to surf, time to read ads and click links to get the free credits, and etc. Expect to spend a lot of time, energy (and most likely money) promoting your Vouchers and Cashflowpc products. Time and patience will pay off for you in the long run however!
