What Does The World's #1 Greatest Marketing Wizard Have To Say About The Recession?

Over the last few days, we've been stepping back and taking stock of everything that's happening online and offline in the Internet Marketing arena and in general.

Our strategy team has been assessing what's been going on in the last 3 months and how that's has been affecting us, affecting you, and the industry in general.

What we've found is pretty mind-blowing.

The majority of the people are deep in a recession, experiencing everything that comes along with that. 

Worries. Fears. Doubts. Anxiety. Cutting back. Spending less. 

At the same time, there's a very clear sector of people who are unaffected by the recession, choosing not to participate in it, and are actually leveraging the recession to increase their assets and come out further ahead than ever.

How do they do it?

Jay Abraham, Internet Marketing extraordinaire and the world's #1 greatest marketing wizard, gave a mind-blowing call last week on how to generate massive income during a recession. 

I got a "back door" link to it and want to share it with you.

This is a time of complete opposites. People are anxious, worried, fearful, and stressed about the economy. At the same time, they're still spending money, buying things, and those who know how to tap into that are becoming millionaires.

Here's what Jay has to say about that:

Rich Schefren gives a good summary of the call on his blog if you want to read that too:

You can choose to participate in the recession or not. It's completely up to you. 

More millionaires are made during a recession than at any other time. And if you know how to use that to your advantage, you'll be able to make money regardless of what the economy is doing.

Does The Position Of Keywords In The URL Affect Ranking?

Last month, Google software engineer Matt Cutts answered some key questions on Google Moderator and answered many of them on video.

I'm going to post a couple of them here with access to the rest.

The first is about whether or not the position of keywords in the URL has a significant impact on your rankings. 

Here's what he said about that:

The second video discusses two questions about nofollow:

Straight From The Horse's Mouth

I can't tell you how many times I've heard Internet Marketers, especially the so-called "experts" talk about Google in a mysterious, elusive way.

They talk about it as if it were some "force" guiding the search engines and changing rules left and right just for the fun of it.

The Google Dance, the Google Slap, the Google Sandbox, and on and on. It can make your head spin!

Now granted, there are many subtleties to any business, including Google, and yes, there have been many evolutionary steps that Google has taken to improve its service to the public, and they may not necessarily feel to ask their millions (billions?) of users about each step before they implement it.

But here is a video about Google, specifically Google Adwords, that somehow makes that giant all seem very tame and straightforward.

The Chief Executive Officer of Google, Hal Varian himself, explains the AdWords Ad Auction and how your maximum CPC (cost per click) bid and quality score determine how much you pay for a click on Google.com.

When you watch the video, you almost feel as if  you were sitting in a Google board meeting listening to one of their top executives explain what his particular department does. Very clear, very simple, and quite surprisingly very complete.

Google will tell you what it wants if you just listen, and if you do listen, that will help your business immensely. 

Interesting piece of trivia:  Google was first nicknamed "BackRub" because the system checked backlinks to estimate the importance of a site.

(Hmmm ... Hal doesn't go too much into backlinks here ... maybe there is more to Google than meets the eye ...)

Tony Robbins in Your Living Room?

Wow - this is great.

If you've ever wanted to go to a Tony Robbins seminar but haven't, here's your chance.

The entire morning session of the Unlimited Seminar in Singapore from 2007 is available, and I wanted to post it here for you.

The entire session is over two hours, and I recommend that you watch the whole thing all at once. Pretend you spent thousands of dollars, flew to Singapore, and are sitting in a room with over 5,000 other people who are there for exactly the same purpose — to have their lives changed by one of  the greatest personal development speakers of all time.

Participate in it fully. It will make a huge difference in your life.

But even if you can only spend 10 – 15 minutes, do that. It's worth it. 

The first two videos are below (and the link to the others is after that)

Here's the link to #3 – once you go there you'll see the links to the others as well.

How To Fail Your Way To The Top

Failure is a funny thing. I don't know where any successful person in the world would be without it!

Here's a great story from top internet marketer Jonathan Budd that will give you a totally different perspective on failure, success, and what it takes to get where you want to be ...

Jonathan has also told a great story about his good friend and Success Coach Tom Hennessy recently sharing an amazing fact with him.

Tom asked Jonathan if he knew the percentage that an olympic gold athlete succeeded out of 100% of their efforts?

What's the percentage of success it takes to be the absolute best in the world at something? You won't believe ...

30%.  That's right, 30%. All it takes is 30% to be an olympic gold athlete. The other 70% is failing! So imagine what it takes just to be another millionaire out of MILLIONS!

10% success maybe. Which means you can fail 90% of the time and still be massively successful! Do you SEE how with this information you are empowered to literally NEVER stop.

The only difference between successful people and unsuccessful people is that successful peple NEVER EVER stop. They just don't give up. Period.

They fail their way to the top ...

:)

You're an inspiration. You have the belief, faith, and courage to truly CREATE your dreams.

So don't EVER give up. 

Your Partners in Success,

Tips For A Great Week

Hey Everyone,

Hope you're having a great week and creating tons of success!

Just a couple of tips to make your week even better:

1.  Take Some Time Out For Yourself

Yes, you want to make money, but you also want to have a life.

Don't spend 12, 14, or 16 hours at the computer — it will be counter productive.

Take 2 hour blocks, focus without distractions (email, phone, text messages, etc.) then take a break.

Then another 2 hours and break.

You'll be amazed at what you can accomplish!

2.  Take A Walk

At some point in the day, every day — get outside!

Take a 30 minute walk and really stretch, breathe deeply, and just enjoy the beautiful scenery around you.

You'll feel so much better when you do.

3.  Take Time For Gratitude

Yes, I know it sound cheesy, but you have SO much to be grateful for, right here and right now.

Take a few minutes to think about and even write about, what it is in your life you are truly grateful for.

You'll find out there's a whole lot more than you thought, and appreciating what you have brings you more of it.

Do these simple things and your week will be awesome!

Here's to you —
