How to Get Rank and Authority Fast
Running Time  16 mins — Get Rank and Authority Fast

Synopsis:

Google Sniper George Brown shows in detail how to get and Rank and Authority fast in the eyes of the SE (search engines). By his experience, he vouches the effectivity of using three “web 2.0″ marketing techniques that made most of his sites display on page 1 of Google within three weeks to six months upon posting.

He was honest enough to reveal that not all of his sites were that successful. But overall,  about 90%  of his sites were.

The three top tools he uses are:

1. Pinging

He reveals a website where you can ping to 27 services in under 10 seconds! I went to that site and did just that….  Actually, typing in the “blog name” and “blog home page” took more time than pinging all the “common” services (22) !

I used not to do this – but now I know: ping your site upon first creation, and then ping it again every after new post or update that you make so that the search engine spiders will know that something has changed that they need to be check.

2. You Tube

You Tube is owned by Google. So naturally, Google looks at You Tube very kindly … in fact, George said that some of his YT sites have gathered more visitors that its  actual website!

Here he gives a valuable tip on what topic to YT about for those who are a loss on  what topic to talk about …

What about if you’re not ready to do a YT clip yet?

Well,  just  ”borrow” from someone! He strongly suggests though, that you do your own clip.

3. Social Bookmarking

George says that this is “the most important part of Chapter 7 …”, because, he  writes … “it is the easiest and fastest way to get a website indexed and get some backlinks”.

The only drawback to this is that it is “very time consuming”.

Like for example, if you were to register to 20 social book marking sites, and it takes 5-10 minutes to complete it per site, that equates to 100 – 200 minutes, or from 1.7  to 3.3 hours of your time that you could better spend in marketing your business.

There is a solution however.

One is to use automatic submitter programs, and two is to use human/manual submissions that you can outsource for a fee.

Which one does he find more effective?

Find out on p. 89 of the Google Sniper Manual.

4. If these were not enough …

If these were not enough and he deems that it is worth taking giving it more time, he would add a “quick” Squidoo lens….

He also acknowledges other web traffic generators like article submission, forum posting, directory posting, etc.  as important (if you are comfortable with them) ….  but he writes in his Google Sniper Manual (p. 90) …

“To be honest, You Tube and Social Bookmarking are the only tools you NEED …”

Of course, in conjunction with Pinging. #

Google Sniper Video 7 Review:
How to Create Posts, Pages, and Side-Bar Images
Running Time:  16 minutes

Synopsis:

Video 7 is an indispensable learning aid in understanding and implementing the ideas in Chapter 6 of the Google Sniper Manual (p. 74-ff).

The video shows, step-by-step, how to make your first post in Wordpress, how to create your  ”About Me” page, and how to personalize it with your image.

He spends an elaborate amount of time in showing how to place that smiling image (of yours) onto that right-hand-side bar … and it’s suprisingly easy!

Let me tell you a little bit more about Chapter 6 of the Manual …

Part 1 – Set up the infrastructure of your site
Part 2 – Create the first part of the content
Part 3 – Getting your SIte ranked with Off-page optimization, and …

…. after the site is “indexed” by the Search Engines …

Part 4 – Put the icing on the cake — the  final post, helpful article page, and affiliate links

Google Sniper  George Brown recommends in his manual a minimum of only 3 posts (yes, only 3 !) … . But more posts would never hurt …. In fact,  it is most desired and helpful … remember, Google loves Content.

He suggests:

The first post — include your main keyword (for the search engine spiders), and some 200- 500 word elaboration (for the human searchers)….

(This  gave me a chuckle … on page 79, he wrote “… people will rarely read it, so don’t worry too much… !”)

The second post — make it supportive of the “final post”. If the final post is a review of a product, then he suggests you “sell” the person responsible for the product.

The third, and “final” post — make it your main post, the story of  you telling your  readers why you put up the blog.  Enrich this part with your main keyword.

He recommends a “Helpful Article Page” to “bulk up”  the content of your Site for both the robot spiders to index, and for your human searchers to appreciate.

He also encourages that you put your affiliate banners and ads onto that Right-hand side bar. And don’t be surprised if it brings you money!

Finally, to have an untiring, repeating teacher at-a-push-button to show you how to create Wordpress posts,  pages, and how to position images — consider investing in the Google Sniper.#

Google Sniper Video Review:  Importance of Pre-selling
Running Time:  14 minutes

Synopsis:

Google Sniper gives the following insights on the technique that gives him up to 20% conversion rate — Pre-selling.

This means … up to 1 out of 5 visitors “convert”, or buy the product that he endorses.

1. Pre-selling is not selling!

Let the sales page do the selling!

Your job is to put the visitor in the right rame of mind so that when he clicks on the link to the sales page, he is more inclined to buy!

(This gives rise to another topic — are your visitors ‘buyers’?, or ‘browsers’? …  But that’s another topic…)

2. Give value, while pre-selling. Give them what they are looking for so that they don’t leave your site.

3. Congruence. Your theme must fit your story and your target audience. That is,your “character” must fit the story… he insinuates that you can a “character” to match your story…

Example, if you’re promoting a ‘weight-loss’ product, you — the author– must come across as a  ”middle-aged lady” who had a weight problem. But now, you’ve found a “solution” that you wanted to “share” to anybody who cares to listen.

That is, even though he,  in actuality,  is an athletic super-male with a six-pack,  instead of a woman who was formerly obese!) … .

(I didn’t find this idea ”comfortable” at first, but…  upon later “rumination” — if you really believe that your product can solve a person’s problem, then it is not about you anymore — it is now about that person, and how your product can solve that person’s problem!)

4. Pictures. If you as the author fits your theme, then the Google Sniper advises you to use your own picture… If not, he recommends  iStockPhoto.com where one can get royalty-free photos for as low as $1.

He advises us to use ‘average” photos that your “average” visitor can relate to…  and not to use professionally-crafted photos which may turn-off your visitors.

(In this regard, he says “make your  About Me page good… there’s nothing like givng life to a website by knowing how the writer looks like.)

5. Info product vs. physical product. In the first part of the video, he talked lengthily about the difference in approach when preselling an info product, and a Physical product. (If you want to know …. )

6. Wordpress themes. He revealed where he sources his Wordpress themes. For pro-looking yet very-much affordable, he points to:  “iNove”, “fusion”,and “i2″ (the mango orange themes).

Google Sniper Video 4 Review: Creating Foundations
Running Time: 10 mins

Synopsis:

In this Video,  the Google Sniper shows you, step-by-step …

1. How to install a Word Press Blog from scratch.
( In the Manual, he teaches how to get a “good  search-engine friendly” domain name and a reliable web host.)

2. How to install plug-ins particularly the “All-in-one SEO” and “Google XML Site Maps“. These plug-ins boost the site ranking by the search engines.

3.  How to use Filezilla, as your FTP software in uploading your plug-ins to your Wordpress blog which resides in your web host.

4. How to choose a theme from so many. He suggests one (iNove) and proceeds to install or upload it, using Filezilla.

PROS:
Detailed approach, suitable for a beginner and as a refresher for someone who is not a beginner.

CONS:
He breezed through Filezilla FTP-connect. When it was my turn to do it, I got stalled. I had my FTP details messed up and it took me awhile to figure things out. It would have been better if he showed more in detail what those FTP connect values are and how one gets them…. anyway, that’s where a newbie learns.#

Google Sniper Video 3 Review — Keyword Elite 2.0
Running Time:  5 mins

Synopsis:

GB introduces his “secret” weapon in finding keywords fast, and assessing the competition level with a fair accuracy.

It’s Keyword Elite 2.0 for him.

He claims that KWE2 has saved him an unbelievable amount of time compared to when he was doing it the free, Google-it way.

And time saved, is money made.

He shows step-by-step how KWE2 gives him tons of keywords, how these  keywords are pruned, and how they would likely fare against the competition.

In effect, it automates the process of finding niches that have a high level of searches… , but with a low level of competition.

At the end of the video, he entices the audience to try a free two-week trial of KWE2 with 100% functionality … in exchange not for your credit card number, but for your email address.

PROS: A good presentation of KWE2 and how you can use it your Google Sniping.
CONS: He likes KWE2 too much that he was silent on how Market Samurai, another famed “secret” weapon, and the one that I use, compares with KWE2. #

Google Sniper Video 2 Review — Keyword Research
Running Time:    11mins

Synopsis:

George Brown (GB) shows  in real time how he does his Google Sniper KW research using the “dating” niche as an example.

He does two tests: the “sniff” test, and the “in-depth” test.

1. Sniff test

He demonstrates Google’s Free Keyword Tool to find out the number of searches per month, and its related keywords.

He shows which columns to hide because you don’t need them.  (Hide the monthly search volume.)

He explains which phrase variation to use, and when to use them ( “phrase” or “broad”). He says that a search volume of ____ per month is viable enough, depending in the competition which he elucidates in the “In-Depth” test.

He shows in real time how he finds his keywords in a “dating” niche, fine-tunes them, saves them in a spreadsheet file …. and how he uses it to organize his “clearing” method in isolating the keyword “winners”.

And then, he further tests his keywords in the …

2. In-depth test

He starts looking at the page 1 of the search engine result for the keyword selected to assess the competition — can we outrank them, or not?

He uses the “off-page” factors such as “Page Rank”, Alexa Ranking, and the sources of the pages. He says that pages coming from “forums”, “Yahoo Answers” are easy to beat.

But when it comes to “authority sites” such as the “Wiki’s”, and sites that have PR > 3 … they can be hard to beat.

He qualifies however that judging the competition can be a tricky thing.

But with experience … that the more you build your sites, the more knowledgeable you’ll become.

He Found a Solution …

That is why, he sought out a tool that will save him time.

And he found his gem in … the Keyword Elite 2.0.

This he says, he uses everyday. And that,  it alone, has saved him hundreds of hours in research work.

So, he recommends to everybody to also try  Keyword Elite. He actually has worked out a plan with Keyword Elite owner, Brad Cullen, to try out the package for 15 days free … no credit card details, just your email address.

PROS: GB took it to heart to illustrate how he does his KW research in real time, step by step.

CONS: This is minor … he talked of  Alexa Ranking, Page Rankin, and “SEM-Rush” as if assuming that his audience already knows about them. #

Google Sniper Review Video  ==> Market Research
Running Time:  16 minutes

Synopsis:

George Brown (GB) discusses the following points and illustrates them in real time:

1. Where to get products to promote.

2. How to analzye products that will make you money. He mentions LinkShare, Clickbank, PayDotCom, and the Independent Affiliate Programs.

He notes that there is less competition in the ‘independents’ and suggests that you also research your prospect products there. They could be real “gold mines”, he adds.

(I have one already and it’s  ________ .  I’ll-announce it after I finish the “preps”.)

3. He then focuses on ClickBank — the world’d largest digital marketplace. He says he makes 80% of his income there, and it is the “easiest place to start”.

(Be warned: “Easy” does not mean “easy money”).

4. For Clickbank product research, he suggests CB Engine because it offers a more comprehensive set of tools in looking for products that make money and in assessing new products that are more likely to become winners.

5. For metrics, he suggests products whose

• “gravity” is not less than ___.  The higher the gravity, the “safer” the product;
• “earned-$-per-sale” (E$PS) must be near the ____ level (for minimum returns!);          … If you see that the EPS is higher than the commission level — it’s much better because it means there are backend sales that convert …. which can make you earn higher for the same number of visitors; and,
• referred sale > 70%. This indicates that that affiliates, and not the merchant, are mostly promoting the product … and you gain from the buzz they produce.

6. He then goes to the product or sales page to determine if the sales copy is engaging. And can really sell.

7.  He reveals methods to determine …

• if the merchant does not override your affiliate link when your customer signs into their email or opt-in list. He says that some actually do.(He shows a quick check if your affiliate link “persists” up to the check-out page to insure that you actually get the commission that you’ve sweated out for.)
• the refund rate without contacting the seller, which may take quite a while.
  (The commission-$  is substantially > than the  EPS-$, EPS.) And,
• if the product is “rising”, or “going down” in popularity. You don’t want a product that is going down

8. Finally, he advises that once you got your product of interest — then buy the product yourself so that …

• you would gain a first-hand knowledge of it,
• you are able to write  a good endorsement of the product,  and
• you can learn much from the niche the product is in.

PROS:  He gave a fairly detailed process on how, and where to get products to sell.

CONS:  He didn’t mention any of the “independent” affiliate marketplaces. I would suppose  Amazon is one of them. #

“WordPress — gift from the Gods?”
– George Brown (p.27, Google Sniper Manual)

I’ve had some experience creating simple  websites using Frontpage, and website builders like Site-Build-It … they were simple and easy to use … but ….

WordPress blows them away!

WP is simply awesome in ease of use, ease of construction, and more importantly — ease in being found by the search engines!

I’m almost halfway in constructing this site and I must admit that at first — I was groping much in how to learn and tame this benign beast they call WordPress.

But after a “focused” study period of learning by trial and error — I’m now quite at ease, in using it.

(Just did the “About Me” pic on the right bar with me smiling from ear-to-ear … as if saying, finally … I nailed it!)

I now  know why even 13 year old “newbies” are able to create their own stunning sites and even land on page 1 of Google over the highly-competitive keyword search on “make money online”.

Their secret? WordPress.

Why so?

You don’t  need advanced HTML coding.

• if you know how to “click” on the mouse,
• if you know how to type an email,
• if you know how to “click and drag”,
• if you know how to “cut and paste”
• if you know how to “fill in the blanks”
• if you can follow simple instructions,
• if you can learn from your mistakes, and build upon them,
• if you have the “hunger” and desire of a winner,or … simply put,
• if you have half a brain of a normal human being who is determined to build something he can be proud of … then …
• You can build a website that will surprise yourself  … and you can build a website that the search engines will love!

So my dear readers, to those of you who want to build an online presence, to those of you who desire to build an online business …

… but are still intimidated… by the “technical’ stuff ….

STOP!

Stop the negative thoughts.
If a half-witted being like me can do it …

You can also do it.

WordPress is here and WordPress is your answer!

WordPress —  a gift from the Gods?

You bet.

P.s.
Aside from WordPress being easy to learn and use — Google Sniper will walk you by the hand in constructing your first WordPress blog visually on its Manual on page 28 through 34. and “video-ly” on Video 4, “Watch Me Create a WordPress Blog from Scratch and Install a Theme and Both Plug-ins”)

I’ve Become A Victim of the Over-Analysis Paralysis – How I solved it!

I was so distracted and confused because of the “noise” in the Internet … 

Almost every week – a new “cutting edge” product comes out with “$1,997” or “$9,997” worth of bonuses to go … I would then “investigate”, buy the product If I like it, study what’s inside.

By the time my “investigation” is over – three to seven days have passed, and my confusion on which path to take became more convoluted… 

This led me to —  not taking action.

(Sounds familiar?)

Then one week later, that same Internet Marketer who sold you that “My XXX Bank Business” with the promise that “the ONLY product you’d need!” is now coming back to you … again… with “My XXX Blueprint” – with the same nauseating promise! 

After getting the 4th and 5th offers from the Same Internet Marketer – I just ignored them.

… That’s When I Got Into The Google Sniper System By George Brown. (Paradoxically, from that same Internet “guru” — who is making a killing from these Internet Launches … mining their “list” of which I am a “willing” victim.)

Per the sales copy, George Brown is an 18-year-old “punk” who has been generating $10,000++ from his Google Sniper Sites.

He was able to neatly package and to successfully launch his product. His Google Sniper easily hit the 500-gravity mark in Click Bank within one month of his product launch (October 15, 2009)….

 —–
Something in my head told me that this is the kick-in-the-butt that I need. If this “kid” who was a former “furniture mover”  and who has not finished college (yet) can make it Big in the Internet … then I can, too!

And so can You, my dear Reader.

We just need to model after him … and adopt The Winner’s  Time, Habits, Actions, and Behaviors (the harder part … but, with burning desire — we can do it.)

Finally … Taking Action…
Consistently! And with Discipline.

I was taken by its simplicity and detailed take-you-by-the-hand method. It seemed that all that I’ve studied (and paid for) have come full circle. They’re all now making sense ! They were there all along, after all …

I bought the product … and took ACTION.

No action, no traction.
Discipline and consistency.

Focus, and Ignore.
(Focus on the subject at hand – ignore all the “other this-is-it!” offers. I like this:
F-o-c-u-s … means fix-one-course-until-successful)

I’ve read somewhere that for you to really become what you want to become – you must have the Habits, Actions and Behavior of the “world class”.

I”m so excited how my journey will be …  I know I will make it, and I know I can make it happen. I have the will, I have the desire, I have the determination. 

I’m also persistent.

I will chronicle my Journey in the Google Sniper Blog.

I invite you to witness my Journey. 

I also invite you to interact with me in a mutual You-learn-from-me-I-learn-from-you perspective.

Let’s make this a community affair!

The Google Sniper Blog — Delivering V-a-l-u-e.

It’s worth our time because one simple word … Value. I am sharing Value here.

(You do not have to repeat my mistakes  – I’ve done them for you, now I’m sharing those  lessons with you!)

For the beginner in Internet Marketing, you can shortcut your “trial and error” by following the route that I took. I already did the mistakes and the missteps – you profit from my experience. It is my intention to chronicle them here.

For the intermediate, and advanced Internet Marketer – you may find some tools or ideas that are available and hadn’t really examined yet.

Your Benefits  – Three Main Goals.

I have three main goals in putting out this google sniping site:

One, to chronicle my progress in putting up “sniper sites”.

Two, to give you, my respected viewer, a “worth-your-time” account of George Brown’s Google Sniper System … I will describe his system in detail in later posts.

I will also point out what I think is “good“, and I will try to improve upon on what I think is “not good enough” by suggesting tools and “tricks” that you may  try for your self.

(For those who want it straight from George Brown, visit and click here.)

Three, to document, and share, the  “plug-ins”  or “improvements” that I find in the areas that I think are “not good enough” to make them even better … .

To borrow from  “dialectics” —  One Idea combined with Another Idea always gives rise to a New Idea which is Better and Superior than any of the original ideas (“thesis’ + “anti-thesis” ==> “synthesis”)….. In layman’s terms, it’s the “synergy” of ideas.

I’ve Studied Internet Marketing 101 A Lot. 

I would even consider myself as an “A+” student on the matter.

But only in theory

For two years since 2007,I’ve studied the methods and systems of  different “gurus’…. I’ve subscribed to their emails and newsletters, dissected their campaigns, participated in their webinars, paid memberships from $39 to $47 a month — just to know their “secrets” … In the process, I bought a  total of  $5,000, more or less,  of their “information products” .

I accumulated a lot of  IM-101 in theoretical knowledge. A good teacher will give me an “A” on this.

But … on the actual marketing side — I would be an  “F” student !

No actual live campaign done.No significant money earned that would bring a genuine smile on my handsome face. The only money I made (save, might be the better word ) was the one that I bought using my own affiliate links!

Next:
I’ve Become A Victim of the Over-Analysis Paralysis, How I solved it.
