Putting My WordPress List On Anabolic Steroids

Remember how easy it was back in the days when you could add "Subscribe now" or "Free Newsletter" on a free site and get a drove of visitors join in? Today you can't approach list building the same way like 5, 6 or 7 years ago! You need to have a vision and plan a strategy because people are now more reluctant to join your list than ever.

It is NOT because they're afraid of SPAM. Although you should clearly have an anti-spam policy on your blog.

It is NOT because they're "I know you'll sell my email!" paranoid.

It is NOT because they don't know you.

It is more because they're AFRAID. Afraid of not receiving what you promise. Afraid of receiving too many emails than you promised. Afraid of receiving emails that are not highly-relevant to what you promise on the blog, and so on.

The biggest reason why visitors won't join your list though it is because you promise the same old stuff that we're seeing on all the other blogs. For example, how many times did you see an opt-in form saying... "Free Blog Updates"?. It is so common these days.

And how many times did you see a 'PDF report' offer? Less often! The point I'm trying to drive home here is this and listen closely because your blogging success depends on it:

And if you want to make lots of money from a combination of blogging and email marketing, then here's what you need to do:

Step #1. Talk with fellow bloggers [I suggest you contact bloggers outside your niche too] who are already successful list builders and interview them on SKYPE, by phone or via email. This way you'll learn some good shortcuts and some "secrets" that will help you get where you want to go, faster, easier, better than any other method out there.

Step #2. Implement the tips you gather from your conversation with these pro bloggers. Have one bloggers as your mentor. Learning from different sources might do more harm than good, and actually confuse you.

Step #3. Start building your list. Never postpone. Do not wait for anything to be perfect. Start getting your first subscriber and strategize for making your first sale. The rest will follow.

And now, if you have a wordpress blog and want to put your list building on steriods, you should check out this plugin - Subscribers Magnet - it's proven to rapidly build your email list by using the technology in some unconventional and unique way. It’s unobtrusive and highly impactful. Watch the video on the page to see it in action.

Facebook Users Get Lassoed By Controversy

Sophos editor does an outstanding video on how the recent viral video bug/phishing scam is being set upon users of Facebook. It seems as though, based from the content here that many are apt to dial in to the key terms " controversial" . The idea of having to watch a video that is controversial makes many users simply lay their guard down and permit these types of intrusions to occur.

And since Facebook is used by a nation of over 500,000,000 people there will be possibly millions that enter into the sleaziness of this application without even fully knowing what they are getting themselves into.
Take a look at the video below and be on guard for all types of scams such as these.

Have you fallen as prey to any of these types of phishing intrusions from Facebook application programmers in the past? Don't be afraid to share your comments below.

Vienna Sausage - Made by Libby's

With all of the great jobs being created by the obama administration us food stamp recipients will finally get our fill of these little gems pictured above. I live in such a great part of Florida that boasts on it’s “career central” employment site, an unemployment rate of 15.2%. Vienna sausages act as my protein source for all of our family meals of rice and beans. Yes, prosperity is among us. These are the benefits of “change” that the 53% of American idiot zombies put into office with an obama/marxist administration.

Do you have a poverty meat to share with us here as well? Use the comment box below to share either your love for obama or your voice to remove social democrats from office this year.
