Good Day Everyone!!

Alex jeffreys has reminded us that even when the coaching ends it’s the start of our internet career and this subject is the main focus of the coaching. You need to know how to build an automated business before you can automate a business. This is automated business but not a get rich over night quick scheme. It’s a get rich forever scheme.

People don’t like the failing before they succeed.

List Building & Email marketing 2 different things;

List Building: If people are saying they can’t build a list then they don’t know how to drive traffic.

Email Marketing: If people are saying they are building a list, but not making any money then they don’t know how to email market.

When you do build a list it’s going to grow one by one. Start small think big.
As you grow so does your following. It takes time!!

Hi

So as the name suggest this module, "Traffic Tornados", which is the 5th coaching module brought to me by Alex Jeffreys, is another module dedicated to driving traffic to your site and quite rightly so as we all know if you have no traffic you’ll get no sales. Theres a million ways to make a million dollars online, but to make a single cent online you need traffic.

To start off Alex gave us an overview of his journey online so far and I must admit theres not many internet marketers who would give such figures of what they’ve made every year online;

2006: Alex Jeffreys learned IM and made $2000
2007: He released first ebook made $115,000
2008: Made $500,000
2009: Alex Jeffreys is projected to make $1000,000

I think you’ll agree what a jump Alex Jeffreys made from 2006 to 2007.

"You can make more friends in 2 months by becoming more interested in other people than you can in 2 years by trying to get people interested in you", Dale Carnegie. This saying is powerful more than u could ever believe. U can make it real big if you apply this technique.

The whole process of internet marketing is simple but its not easy to apply!!

Ok so lets get into the traffic techniques Alex showed us in this module.

Hello

"Social Media Money" is the first module where we will be starting to learn how to drive traffic. Alex stressed that if anyone skips this module then 90% will underachieve.

But first a great incentive was offered to get us to get things rolling. A competition to see who could get the most traffic to our blogs by the 14th of August 2009 in which Alex would pay $1000 to the winner from his own pocket. Talk about getting people motivated who else would do that?

Now obviously by the time you read this the competition is over, but we are actually still awaiting the winner to be announced and I will try and share this when they become available.

The rules where as follows;

• You must put on your blog how your driving traffic.
  
• Must install google analytics not only so  it can be seen where the traffic is coming, but to show your statistics for the 2 week period.

Now I have been making some efforts, but I never entered, again because of the problems I had, but let me assure you I am going to be hitting this hard throughout the next coming weeks and will share my results.

Alex touched on what was talked about in the last coaching module basically to leave comments on other fellow student blogs and also other blogs with high PR’s.
I will post more info on this in the coming weeks!!

Blogging Might Sound Like Hard Work But Its Not!!!

• 80% of your efforts will drive 20% of your traffic.
• 20% of your efforts will drive 80% of your traffic.

Its all about trying to find and monitor what least effort your making which brings the highest amount of traffic. 

KEYWORDS: These should be implemeted into your blog posts even if it means taking an extra 5m for your posts. Alex doesn’t do any keyword research when he blogs, but remeber his business is already built up he has active readers by the thousands. I promise I will try and get some videos or posts up about how to do keyword research. Its on my to do list.

TRAFFIC METHODS: Ok I plan to put up a category dedicated to this so you can see what I am doing to drive traffic to this blog, but in the meantime heres the best ways to drive traffic, suggested from the man himself;

• Posting on other blogs.
• Give aways (Free products).
• Once you have a list you can drive to new blog posts.
• Twitter. This is new to me but will take the dive in due course.
• You Tube. Heard about this before so will be taking steps to get a video on it (em,  eventually a few, quite a few, lol).
• Review what other blogs, related to driving traffic are doing to drive traffic.
• Your own methods if you know any (I might but they could be the same as whats in the next coaching modules, will wait and see whats to come before going into these).

That about wraps it up for this module again I’ll keep you updated on what methods I am using to drive traffic as when I started Alex program my visitors where 0. So hopefully when the traffic comes in I can show you my google analytics account.

I would love to hear your best ways to drive traffic to your website!!!

Please as always feel free to share this is your space too  !! 
Until next time, Graeme!

Ok so I am a bit behind putting this information up as it was a few weeks ago. Things have just been so busy with me trying to get my blog up and running, things have also been a bit hectic at my day job and I am also trying to get an office set up for myself in my spare room!!

But anyways the main "focus", , yes "focus" can’t say that word now without doing it in a welsh accent as Alex always says it & its ringing in my head, lol. Ok so this time the main concept was that we have to get a product out there on the web for a number of reasons;

• To Build A List!
• To Make Money!
• To Get Known & Gather A Fan Base!

Kindly Alex has gave all the students a ebook which is brandable, meaning our own names, website will be implemented into it hence we introduce Viral Marketing on to our skill set. This will be given away free, yes I said free, but this is what will build our list.

So;

1. We have an ebook which will be given away free!!
2. The ebook will be Viral!!

But theres more we can also make money directly from this ebook as theres an upsell. What this means is when the person fills in their name and e-mail address they will be taken to an upsell page. This is a better version of the original product which they can buy. If they choose not to buy then they still get their free ebook and we get their name for out list. 

Lastly Alex has set the goal for all the coaching students to get a list of 1500 people. With a list this size anyone should be able to bring in $1500 per month, because 1 person on your list should equal $1 per month.
