Why I LOVE .Edu Backlinks

If you’re looking to gain organic traffic you probably already know how important back links are, but what you might not be aware of, is the power of .edu back links.  Simply put, 1 .edu back link with no Page Rank is easily equivalent to 50 back links with PR1 or 2.  If you want to rank for a heavily competitive keyword try building some .edu back links and see how drastically it changes your rankings.

I have seen .edu back links bump sites as much as 20 spots within days of the link going live.

Building .edu links is not easy.  Often times you will find blogs on .edu domains and can leave comments in them, but in most cases they are assigned a “no follow” attribute so you’re link gets no juice! Check out the forums or Google around for creative ways to build these links and find out for yourself the power of them.  Better yet, if you’re in college or know someone that is, hit them up and see if they have a site or blog on one of these domains.  Most colleges provide students with websites, so check with your college!

Social Media Marketing can be great if leveraged well.  Having the tools is one thing and knowing how to apply them is a complete other.  Most people will tell you that Social Media traffic doesn’t monetize, and in most cases they are correct but think about the exposure from an SEO stand point and what value that can bring.  I’ve seen an increase in inbound links from StumbleUpon more so then conversion but links = ranking and ranking = conversions.

Update on my Affiliate Sites.

I’ve spent the last month revamping an old supplement site and it has paid off big time!  I was able to make over $200 on the site in the month of January and February looks even better.  I’ve been designing and testing landing pages for various affiliate programs, setting up numerous PPC Campaigns and making revisions daily.  I think the biggest tip I can give anyone getting into Affiliate Marketing is to TEST ads, landing pages, ad content and ad titles.  I have found that often times the difference between a 4% conversion rate and a 0.5% conversion rate is an Ad title or description.

Well thats it for me!  Work hard, stay focused and reach those goals!

Girlfriend 7.0 - Funny Email!

I couldn’t resist the temptation to post this. If you want to see more of these emails let me know and I’ll start posting them up.

Dear Tech Support,

Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0. I soon noticed that the new program began unexpected child processing that took up a lot of space and valuable resources.

In addition, Wife 1.0 installed itself into all other programs and now monitors all other system activities, such as Poker Night 10.3, Football 5.0, Going to the Pub 7.5, and Softball 3.6

I can’t seem to keep Wife 1.0 in the background while attempting to run my other favorite applications. I’m thinking about going back to Girlfriend 7.0, but the uninstall doesn’t work on Wife 1.0.

Please help!

Thanks,
Troubled User…..

Dear Troubled User:

This is a very common problem that men often complain about.

Many people upgrade from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0, thinking that it is just a Utilities and Entertainment program. Wife 1.0 is an OPERATING SYSTEM and is designed by its Creator to run EVERYTHING!!! It is also impossible to delete Wife 1.0 and to return to Girlfriend 7.0. It is impossible to uninstall, or purge, the program files from the system once installed.

You cannot go back to Girlfriend 7.0 because Wife 1.0 is designed to not allow this. Look in your Wife 1.0 manual under Warnings: Alimony-Child Support. I recommend that you keep Wife 1.0 and work on improving the situation. I suggest installing the background application Yes Dear 2.7 to alleviate your program problems.

The best course of action is to enter the command C:\APOLOGIZE! Because ultimately you will have to give the APOLOGIZE command before the system will return to normal anyway.

Wife 1.0 is a great program, but it tends to be very high maintenance! Wife 1.0 does come with several support programs, such as Clean and Sweep 3.0, Cook It 1.5, and Do Bills 4.2

However, be very careful how you use these programs. Improper use will cause the system to launch the program Nag Nag 9.5. Once this happens, the only way to improve the performance of Wife 1.0 is to purchase additional software. I recommend Flowers 2.1 and Diamonds 5.0

WARNING!!! DO NOT, under any circumstances, install Secretary With Short Skirt 3.3 . This application is not supported by Wife 1.0 and will cause irreversible damage to the operating system!

Best of luck,
Tech Support
