Some things really stand the test of time.
I was looking back over some old Kickstarts and saw that I first
recommended a membership site called Unique Article Wizard back
in July 2007. I had just joined it and was waxing lyrical about
the success I’d had.
With Unique Article Wizard you write an article and then rewrite
each paragraph a couple of times. Then you upload it to the
service and wait for the magic to happen.
The magic is that Unique Article Wizard ‘spins’ your article and
submits a unique version of it to a huge number of article
directories and blogs. Automatically.
At the moment, they have over 11,000 places to submit articles to
on their database.
The result is that you get a huge number of backlinks.
As we all know, backlinks are the bedrock of success online. The
search engines, and Google in particular, take backlinks to be
‘votes’ for you web pages. The more votes you get, the higher
they will rank you.
It isn’t quite as simple as that, but backlinks are so important,
it may as well be.
And Unique Article Wizard gets you backlinks by the hundred.
To be frank, I join a lot of membership sites, and like most of
us, often cancel after a few months because something better has
come along, or because the promise I saw in the first place
hasn’t been lived up to. It happens.
But I’ve been a member of Unique Article Wizard now for two and a
half years – and have no intention whatsoever of letting it go!
The service has just got stronger of the years.
Article marketing is the easiest way to make money online and
Unique Article Wizard puts article marketing on steroids.

Four years ago, a young man called Rob Benwell launched a fairly
simple little ebook that told how he was making serious money
from blogging.
Back then, blogging was fairly new, and Rob pretty much cleaned
up. His book, over three editions, has sold well over 30,000
copies.
Now, as you know, on the Internet, things change very quickly.
What works today, doesn’t always work tomorrow. New things come
(and go) and making money consistently demands that you keep up
with the latest ideas.
That’s why Rob released a new edition of ‘Blogging to the Bank‘
each year. He is constantly testing and tweaking his own blogging
business and once a year updates the book with the latest things
that are working for him.
Some of those editions I’ve liked a lot, and some have left me
cooler. But overall, and having met Rob on a couple of occasions,
I know that he is honestly striving to provide good quality
information that works.
The latest version of Blogging to the Bank, the 2010 edition,
launched a couple of weeks ago and I have just got hold of a copy
to review.
For my money, it is the best so far!
It covers all the basics, so if you are new to blogging, you will
be able to get up and running very quickly. And, importantly, it
leads you through to the latest cutting-edge tactics that Rob is
using to make real, serious money from blogs right now, in 2010.
By sheer coincidence, there is even a section on Twitter – and
you can access a complete Twitter course, called Twitter
Domination, that Rob has produced as a free bonus from inside the
book.
Believe me – it is WAY better than any of the products I
reviewed. And you get it free!
Blogging is very easy – Rob’s ‘Blogging to the Bank 2010′ helps
you make it super profitable as well!

My experience with Twittollower continues to be really positive.
This is part 2 of the Twittollower review I started yesterday.
It is now about 60 hours since I signed up and as at this moment
I have 327 followers already.
Apart from the couple of minutes spent opening my Twittollower
account, I haven’t had to do anything – Twittollower just works
in the background sucking new followers to your account like a
magnet.
I have made a few tweets, of course. Although they have been
mostly generated by a plugin on my WordPress blog that tweets an
announcement that I’ve made a new post.
The results so far are that I can now directly attribute a few
sales to the new twitter traffic (totaling $74.95 in commissions)
and Kickstart now has seven new subscribers.

Some questions have been raised by Kickstart subscribers and I’ve
tried get answers…
* “Are the followers you get genuine people or just
auto-posting bots?”
Well, I’m quite sure that there are some rubbish followers
in there. That’s the nature of Twitter, after all. But the
fact that I’m getting excellent traffic to my blog in
general, and specifically to certain pages I’ve tweeted
about, suggests that a lot of the followers are real people
who are both targeted and responsive.
And let’s face it – auto-posting bots don’t buy stuff!
* “Does Twittollower break Twitter’s rules and will you risk
getting your account banned?”
Apparently, when Twittollower first launched, a handful of
people did get their accounts banned for growing too fast.
It seems that Twitter don’t like your follower list to grow
faster than a certain number per day – whether you have
added them manually or by a service such as Twittollower.
To combat this potential problem (it only affected a very
few people) Twittollower set a limit on how many followers
it would add to your account each day. Since then, there
have been no more problems.
I don’t know what that limit is, but as I’ve been getting an
average of 130 per day, I’m not complaining!
* “What’s happened about the price increase after 200 sales?
Surely they have gone past that point now?”
Yes they have. Originally they intended to increase the
price after 200 sales, but a few JV partners started
promoting the service before the official launch date, and
so they had passed the 200 mark before Twittollower was even
available to the general public.
To make things fairer all round – and especially to
customers of affiliates like me who wanted to test the
service before promoting it – they have extended the launch
price until Friday 5th February.
After that, joining Twittollower will cost more.
* “Isn’t Twittollower quite expensive for something you could
do yourself for free?”
There are two answers to this.
The first is that while you can add followers for free,
adding over 130 per day would be both mind-numbingly boring
and time-consuming.
I certainly wouldn’t consider it a good use of my time and
I’m sure most effective marketers would feel the same.
Free has its place, but not if getting free costs you in
other ways.
The second answer is that you have to remember that
Twittollower guarantee to get you 2000+ new followers each
month.
If you think of each follower as a sales lead, that means
each lead has about a 3 cents acquisition cost. And that is
outrageously cheap!
Of course, once you have them, you have them forever, so you
pay to get them once, but can profit from them over and over
again.
