Backlink Solutions is Open Again - Briefly

Hey folks,

Just a quickie to alert those who have been waiting for Backlink Solutions to re-open their site to new subscribers. The owners Chad and Colin have given me a backdoor link for you to use. My long time readers are aware that this program is one of my "secret" weapons that I have been using for a few years now. They have made a number of changes since inception in order to eliminate the usual noob dumb ass users who always destroy programs of this nature. If you are not familiar with Backlink Solutions I won't be explaining what it does here. I have discussed it's usefulness many times over the past few years and to my detriment in Terry's Bike Shed. I don't want beginners involved (sorry) - this is strictly meant for those of you who have been waiting for an opening. As of yesterday they were accepting 32 new users. That's not the usual sales crap either - like Vic they recognize the importance of keeping membership limited in order to preserve the effectiveness of the program. If you are thinking of using the program as a spammer or to promote spam sites - don't bother, you will get tossed. If you are serious about IM and need a leg up then proceed.

Here is the link Backlink Solutions (This isn't open to affiliates so don't peel off that link - won't work)

Hint - this may prove very useful for the new BING/Yahoo engine and those of you working on ND.


Canadian Internet Marketers - Pay your Taxes

Just a warning for all my Canadian readers. Revenue Canada has been given a list of over 5000 Ebay marketers and will be conducting an Audit shortly on all those names who have not reported their earnings. The Government is providing a short amnesty (approximately 1 month) for people to come forward and pay their taxes. If you fail to do so then there will be additional fines and penalties when they catch up to you. If you think you are safe because you don't use Ebay then beware that it won't be long before they compel Google, PayPal etc to release data as well. I suggest you avoid an ugly fight, bite the bullet and come forward now with your earnings while the amnesty is in place.

Cheers

I'm No Longer Can Make Money Online with AdSense Using This Blog

Early I told you that I was warned by Google AdSense Team that some of my blog posts have been formatted to look like AdSense ads and Google gave me three days to fix that or I'll will not be able to display AdSense ads forever in this blog.

I made the changes and after three days nothing happen, so I must have past that.

But, yesterday, just after 5 minute I published a new post, all my AdSense ads gone. I think the Google AdSense team automatically detected the new post was against their policies, so immediately remove my AdSense ads from this blog. But I swear the post isn't against any of their policies. I then deleted the post to see whether the ads will come back. No, still blank in the space after hours of waiting. I think this simply means I can no longer show AdSense ads on this blog.

AdSense has been a great source of revenue for this blog and I have lost it. I started to thinking to retire this blog. Stop working on it and let the blog falls from No. 1 ranking for the keyword 'make money online'.

Yesterday night doesn't sleep well. Thinking about how to make this blog to generate income in the future as I still get a lot of search engine traffic from this blog. And today morning I finally decided to make some major chances to this blog.

Firstly, I will chance the template of moneymakerinfo.blogspot.com. I have picked a professional template, it is three column and looks better than this one. I will change the template in these coming two days. Then I will focus on private ads selling, leads selling and signing up one to two pay per click programs such Kontera, and etc. May be also selling text links or paid reviews. But, all these new income sources I added in to http://moneymakerinfo.blogspot.com wouldn't be able to replace the income that I used to earn from one Google AdSense program.

Google AdSense is really a powerful money making program. If you get good amount of targeted traffic and optimize the ads well on your site, AdSense will work very well for you.

The Keyword Crash Course

If you are new here or are one of the hundreds who have emailed me asking "where to start" or, more to the point, have asked me if I would be willing to tutor you directly on "how to make money online" then I strongly suggest you take a look at Court and Mark's Keyword Crash Course.

Both men are professional marketers, they teach the same basics as I do and offer one on one mentoring in this business. The Crash Course is designed for beginners just starting out and you can get your feet wet for a buck - a token introductory price for a month just to keep the tire kickers and time wasters away. If you are looking for real instruction on making a living online then join Court and Mark. If you are just looking for another "get rich quick" ebook or gimmick then they aren't for you.

If you found my site chances are you found it ranking high in Google for the term you searched for. This wasn't an accident - it is what I do and it is the keystone for making money online. How can you learn to dominate Google and the other search engines? You can start at the beginning of this blog and read or take the more focused approach offered by Court and Mark. Unfortunately I just don't have the time to offer personal guidance so please don't ask. I wouldn't recommend the Keyword Academy if I didn't endorse the fellows fully.

I would love to get some feedback from those of you who have already joined Court/Mark - good, bad or otherwise let us know.
