Is that what you thought when you read that subject line?
Of course you did, but here you are, and you’re curious.
OK, firstly, this is why getting into the top 50 is important.
Getting any page to rank anywhere can be tricky, but anywhere in the top 100 are the ones that Google use for reference to rank their top 10.
Getting into the top 50 gives any page you’ve linked to a leg up.
When you get multiple pages into the top 50 that link to each other, they’ll all climb into the top 10 or 20.
So, let’s get a page into the top 50 today.
What we are going to do is take advantage of the Golden Ratio for keywords.
The formula is GR = the number of search results with the keyword in the title / the total search volume for that keyword.
Start by doing a Google search like this:-
allintitle: keyword.
Then repeat the search without the allintitle: part.
You should use a long-tail keyword because they have less competition.
You can do this manually, but it’s tedious.
Use a keyword tool, and plenty will give you a free trial.
The ratio you need to make this work is less than 0.25.
0.25 – 1 might work once you have a few pages already ranked, to which you can add a supporting link, but anything over 1 will be challenging for quite a while.
All you need to do now for that new page is make sure the Google bot finds it.
Before T.V. and the Internet, all marketing was done by mailing out envelopes stuffed with sales letters and supporting information, newspaper & magazine sales pages, and classified ads.
The classified ad below ran for years, indicating that it was highly successful.
“SNACK ROUTE. Newest and most profitable snack machines are opening up hundreds of new locations. Seeing is believing. Earnings can exceed $1,000 weekly. Part time. All cash business can be yours for as little as $5,600. Call 1-800-“
It’s usually considered that putting the pricing in your sales pitch is a bad idea, but this ad clearly states the low end of the pricing.
Couple that with the high end of the potential returns, and the reader, with some interest in being in business for themselves, will fantasise about paying the $5,600 back in 6 months.
That won’t happen unless they push very hard, but people love to dream about how they’ll live when their ship comes in.
Similarly, people dream about what they’ll do when they win the lottery.
We all know that someone will win, and we don’t see any reason it won’t be you.
For me, though, I don’t buy a ticket, so I’m unlikely to win.
The same happens when people first start with Internet marketing.
They think that there are millions of people online, and all “I need is to get 1% of 1% of those people to see my sales page”.
“1% of those will buy, and I’ll quit my job in a month“.
Many of them give up when that doesn’t happen, but not you.
You keep searching for that elusive secret that you know must exist.
You buy all the promises from the gurus.
They don’t work either.
You still believe you can make it, but you might be getting a little jaded about the promises.
I can’t blame you for that.
I did the same for years.
I knew that success was possible and that I had made many mistakes along the way.
That changed when I changed.
When I started applying what I knew others were doing that I wasn’t.
The boring stuff.
Repetitively.
Every day for an hour.
The stuff that anyone could do but most won’t.
Will you?

A simple blog post on a free host reviewing a product you use and understand with an affiliate link.

This is the title of a website page I printed in 2001.
Now, I checked with Archive.org because the site no longer exists.
The last crawled page by archive.org has this snippet.
Established in 2001, you can trust that we are a successful, stable, long term organisation providing you with the information, products, services and training you need to create and maintain your home business.
That was on December 2006.
They sank without a trace.
That tells me that either their system didn’t work or they never used it.
The problem with their system is that it collected low-quality traffic, if it collected any at all.
There is a kernel of a good idea in there that I’ll test and report back.
OK, now you want to know if getting 10,000 quality hits daily to your site is possible.
The answer is yes, as long as you do the work required to attract that number of people to click one of your online links.
To do that, you will need to have a lot of content spread around on platforms that already have a lot of the right sort of traffic.
Platforms like Facebook, YouTube, Vimeo, Twitter, Pinterest, and under-the-radar platforms that don’t make the news.
Platforms that will be provided to you in your inbox over a 15-day sequence when you sign up here for free.

The argument for hustling is that if you do it long enough and hard enough you’ll be a success.
That’s a crock of shite.
You could hustle all year at trench digging, you may be the best trench digger in the land, but it’s unlikely to make you more than a successful trench digger.
Sure, you can get well-paid for digging trenches and invest your income wisely to build a nest egg, but you’ll only be trading time for dollars, which is never the way to get financially free.
Gaining financial freedom is when you can choose to work or not, and it doesn’t impact your income other than to make it grow,
You could get there digging trenches after many years of daily hustling, but probably not.
If you examine the core of any successful business you’ll find that they all have at least two of these three things.
A good idea.
Good execution on that idea.
Luck.
The idea doesn’t have to be the most incredible idea.
It could even be a twist on another person’s good idea.
You’ll need to take action on that idea and keep taking action on it until you have reached the level you want.
I think you’ll also need at least a smattering of luck.
Often executing that idea will attract the luck you need, so you may not recognise it when it arrives.
Like all email marketers, I get the occasional spam complaint.
This is utterly unfair to the other subscribers because sometimes those complaints prevent my emails from getting into their inboxes.
Those who call my emails spam are making decisions for others that they have no right to make.
Here is a case in point.
This person was the latest subscriber to report my emails as spam because they were too lazy to scroll to the bottom of the email and unsubscribe.
I have scrubbed their name and email address for their privacy, but you can see in the image that they have been a subscriber for quite a while, have opened emails and clicked links before deciding to report them as spam.
I don’t have a problem with people unsubscribing because my emails don’t suit everybody.
Your interests may change, and you no longer want me in your inbox.
That’s fine.
I don’t send emails to anyone who has not subscribed at some point, even if you don’t remember doing so.
