TRUE Results To REPLACE YOUR JOB
Welly Mulia Shares What It REALLY Takes To Replace Your Job…
Online Keyword Research Training
Thursday, February 18th, 2010
You should write content for your blog on a CONSISTENT basis since you’ll be providing value to your EXISTING audience - meaning people who are already visiting your blog.
Apart from this, your content will also provide food for the search engines so that they index your content, and when people type in a RELATED keyword phrase, hopefully your blog shows up as one of the search engine result pages (even without doing any prior online keyword research).
This way you get NEW visitors.
So by writing content on your blog, you provide value to your EXISTING audience as well attracting NEW audience.
You can write on any content you want to write, but you don’t simply put your content “nakedly” like that, if you know what I mean.
Let me illustrate an example.
This post is ABOUT doing keyword research correctly. So I’d spend some time writing this article, and then think about a fancy post title that’s filled with benefits and curiosity that’s related to keyword research, and then I’d simply post this article on my blog right?
WRONG!
If you were to do that, chances are only your EXISTING audience will read your article. Yes, there may be a few visitors who’ll find your post via some rare keyword phrases that you have ACCIDENTALLY targeted in your post, but you can do better than that.
There’s a much better way than ACCIDENTALLY targeting some random (and usually rare) keyword phrases.
What I should do instead is:
After I’ve decided that I want to write a post ABOUT keyword research, I write my post as usual. But for the post title, I’d do some due diligence to find a RELATED keyword phrase, and then I MATCH it to my post. I’d then use this keyword phrase as my post title (plus some CURIOUS and ENTICING words to make it more eye-catching to the human eyes).
Whenever possible, I’d put this keyword phrase at the BEGINNING of the post title for SEO purposes. This will help optimize my post for my targeted keyword phrase (which I’ve researched and found above). In addition, I want to insert this keyword phrase ONCE IN THE FIRST PARAGRAPH and ONCE IN THE LAST PARAGRAPH. This will further help with my SEO efforts.
When I do this, there is a high chance that NEW people will find my post when they go to Google and type in my targeted keyword phrase. So this way I’m providing value to my EXISTING audience AND my NEW audience who are going to find me via Google.
The Criteria
The next question you might be asking is: “Okay that makes sense Welly, but what criteria do you use when you do keyword research for your blog posts?”
I use a criteria that is taught by Josh Spaulding (a COOL Internet marketer whom I have a lot of respect for) in his Article Marketing Domination guide report (not affiliate link). It’s a great guide if you want to learn more about article marketing.
I own a copy of this guide and have been using the strategies taught within for my article marketing campaign. I recommend it to anyone who wants to get serious in driving traffic to their website via article marketing.
(again, the above is not my affiliate link… I’m recommending Josh’s guide simply because I find it to be useful)
Watch the video below to find out what criteria I use for my blog post keyword research as well as how I do keyword research:

10 Steps To REPLACE YOUR JOB On The Internet
Wednesday, December 30th, 2009
In my last post, I explained what Internet continuity programs are and why they’re so profitable.
In this post, I’m going to show you how to build a successful continuity program - or to be more specific, How To Build A CONSISTENT Online Business FAST Using Continuity Programs so that you can REPLACE YOUR JOB!
Step 1 - Overcome Information Overload And Focus On ONE Thing Only
With all the information out there about making money online, I’m 100% sure that you’re suffering from information overload. The first step you need to do is to overcome this illness.
Stop chasing one business opportunity after another. Stop looking for the “next big thing” because there is no “next big thing”. There is only hype attached to the “next big thing”.
Focus your mind and attention on only ONE thing - and that is to build a CONSISTENT Online Business FAST so that you can REPLACE YOUR JOB. Ignore the rest that have nothing to do with this.
Please pay special attention to the word “CONSISTENT” - you want your income to be consistent month in and month out. So what if you can generate $1000 today but fail to make any money tomorrow and the day later.
What you want is CONSISTENT income every month so that you can have a REAL business and peace of mind.
Step 2 - Learn Direct Response Marketing Skills
When soldiers go to war and fight for their country, they equip themselves with weapons and shields. You need to do the same by equipping yourself with Direct Response Marketing skills.
Why?
You are a small entrepreneur with limited budget to spend on your online business, thus you need to make the best use of your money.
You can’t afford to spend (and WASTE) BIG money like all the Fortune 500 companies. Every dollar counts, which is why you MUST learn direct response marketing skills so that you spend your money wisely on things that do WORK!
Step 3 - Learn Technical Skills
A lot of the “make money online” sites and gurus say BOLDLY that you don’t need to have ANY technical skills at all to be able to succeed in your online business.
(worse, they claim that you only need to click a few buttons on your mouse and you’ll make thousands instantly…)
I COMPLETELY DISAGREE!
Don’t cringe first at the thought of learning technical skills…
What I’m saying is that you MUST, at the very least, learn basic technical skills such as:
- how to connect your domain and hosting together so that when people type www.yourdomain.com, they are actually directed to your website
- how to create a BASIC html static web page
- how to set up a WordPress blog from scratch
No, you don’t have to learn programming. You can outsource the programming stuff to professional programmers who know what they’re doing and who can do the job A LOT BETTER and MUCH FASTER than you.
Why don’t you also outsource the three skills I mentioned above as well?
Because if you outsource even the most basic skills such as these three skills, then you’d have to wait for your technical guy to fix it for you if you need to make even the smallest change to your web page. This will take up a lot of time with the back and forth communication. Another reason is of course to cut down your expenses.
Step 4 - Create Your High Quality Freebie
Make sure that you actually create a HIGH QUALITY freebie that you give away to your website visitors in exchange for their email addresses. Don’t simply put together some low quality PLR stuff and use it as your freebie.
This will hurt your image and brand, and once it’s tarnished, it’s VERY DIFFICULT to regain and make people trust you again.
Before you create your freebie, think of it as a paid product that you’re going to sell. This way, your mind will focus on delivering high quality content since it (your mind) thinks that it’s going to be a paid product.
Step 5 - Set Up Your Squeeze Page To Capture Leads
Now that you have your freebie ready, the next step is to set up a squeeze page to capture the names and email addresses of those people who requested your freebie.
The basic HTML skills that you’ve learned earlier (in step 3) will help a lot in creating and setting up a simple squeeze page.
Of course, you should have some nice and professional (but not too fancy) design to your squeeze page and freebie, and you can do that by outsourcing this to graphic designers. This will increase your squeeze page conversion rate.
Step 6 - Create Your Continuity Program
This is the MEAT of what your customers are paying you money for. They pay you money to access your VALUABLE content to solve their problems.
The content of your continuity program, of course, have to be GOOD (as should your FREE content).
When people give their names and email addresses to get your freebie, they should be IMMEDIATELY presented with your continuity program offer.
Why immediately?
Because as mentioned in my previous post, people’s interests change VERY QUICKLY all the time. If you don’t ask for the sale immediately, then they might no longer be interested in your topic a few days later.
And one more tip: you do NOT have to create ALL the content beforehand before you actually roll out your continuity program. In fact, you only need to have the first lesson created and you’re good to go.
Step 7 - Package Your Continuity Program To Make It SELL
With tight competition in almost every market, simply presenting your “naked” continuity program for sale is not going to be good enough.
You need to MASSIVELY PACKAGE your continuity program so that it becomes irresistible and really ENTICING. Package it in such a way so that if people do not take up your continuity offer, they’ll really miss out on a lot of good, cool stuff.
You want to make your prospects think like this in their minds:
Join your continuity program = I can solve my problems
Don’t join your continuity program = My problems remain unsolved and I’ll continute to feel excruciating PAIN
Step 8 - Generate Visitors To Your Squeeze Page
I’m sure you’ve heard and seen this a thousand times before, but without visitors to your website, then everything is useless.
You can have the best continuity program in the world, but if nobody knows the existence of your program, then not a single soul is going to join your program.
This means zero sales and zero profits.
Once you have your freebie, your irresistible continuity program that is MASSIVELY PACKAGED, then you can start driving traffic to your squeeze page.
A small percentage of that traffic will be your customers, and most will just be freebie seekers who won’t join your continuity program. This is perfectly fine, because in EVERY MARKET that you operate and sell information products in, there are only a small percentage of buyers compared to freebie seekers.
Step 9 - Build DEEP Relationships With Your Leads/Subscribers
After visitors opt-in to get your freebie, they are presented with your continuity program offer. Let’s say that the conversion rate for your continuity program is 2%. This means that for every 100 people who see your offer, only 2 join your program and the remaining 98 did not join.
So what happens to these 98 people?
Simply leave them alone?
NO WAY!
What you should do is to build deep, trusting, and beneficial relationships with them via email marketing. Remember that they’ve already given you their email addresses!
Give them cool and valuable content that will help them solve their problems, and give them on a CONSISTENT basis.
Frequency is key here.
The Internet is full of scams and is filled with tons of dishonest people. You want them to receive REPETITIVE exposure from you that will result in a POSITIVE perception of you being a nice, trustworthy person whom they regard as their trusted advisor.
Step 10 - Use KILLER Email Marketing Tactics To SELL Your Continuity Program
In Step 9, you build deep relationships with your subscribers by giving them valuable free content that they can use. In Step 10, you SELL your offer.
Simply giving away free content all the time won’t make you money. SELLING your continuity program will!
Therefore, even though you often give your subscribers free content, be sure to sell to them also. Otherwise ALL your efforts will be gone to waste.
The way to do this is to have a mixture of free content and sales pitch emails. For example, you can use the following tactic:
Email 1: Free content
Email 2: Sales pitch
Email 3: Free content
Email 4: Sales pitch
Etc.
Where Do You Go From Here?
So there you have it, the 10 ESSENTIAL steps to building successful Internet continuity programs. If you do them correctly, you’re bound to REPLACE YOUR JOB on the Internet!
If you REALLY want to learn IN MORE DETAIL where I show and teach you STEP-BY-STEP How To REPLACE YOUR JOB On The Internet Using A Continuity Program, then I have some good news for you.

Internet Marketing Tools (FREE) - The Top 12 (Part 2)
Thursday, September 10th, 2009
In my last post, I shared with you the first part of the top 12 Internet marketing tools I use in my business.
In this post, let’s finish where we left off from the first post and give you the second part of the top 12 Internet marketing tools.
This is a great resource where you can obtain free graphics to use in your website/blog. Though the image resolution for the graphics is limited (meaning if you’re looking for high resolution images you may have a problem getting them here), you have to keep in mind that it’s free.
Fortunately, if you need graphics only for web purposes without actually printing them, this is an excellent place to grab your free graphics.
Almost all the images I’ve used in this blog are taken from here.
This is an awesome player that plays all kind of media files. Want to play mp3s and flv files? No problem. Want to play other audio and video formats such as MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, or MPEG-1? This player can play it all.
No more downloading and installing multiple video programs just to be able to watch the different video files on your PC. No more headaches!
Just get VLC Media Player and you’re all set.
This useful piece of software allows you to upload, download, and transfer files to and from your PC and your server (hosting).
FileZilla is pretty easy to use and its menu is intuitive, making it relatively easy to use. Even if you’re a beginner trying to use this software, you should be able to get yourself up and running fast.
DownThemAll is a Firefox plugin that downloads all your files in one, easy-to-read and easy-to-manage location.
In addition, with this plugin you’ll be able to increase your download speed. According to DownThemAll, this software can increase your download speed at up to 400%.
Last but not least, you can also pause and resume downloads with the simple click of a button.
I hope by now you see how powerful Firefox is, and the almost infinite number of plugins available, all aiming to make our lives easier and get things done faster in a more efficient manner.
Still not using Firefox as your default browser? You SHOULD NOW.
This is a free chat program, much like Yahoo Messenger and MSN Messenger. You can chat via instant text messaging and Skype phone.
When you have a lot of things you want to convey to your business partners or team members, and you want to communicate to them FAST, then you can use Skype phone to call them on their PCs (free), or call their landlines (for a low tariff).
Furthermore, for an affordable fee, you can also get a landline number. When people call this number, they’ll be directed to your Skype account.
With Skye, communication becomes EASY and fast.
Copyscape is an online tool designed to check if your website content has been illegally copied or plagiarized by unscrupulous people.
How can you use this in your online business?
Let me give you one good example.
Suppose you outsource article writing to freelancers. After you’ve got your articles from them, upload your articles to your server. Then go to Copyscape and check to see if there are any duplicate results. If there are, chances are that your freelance writer is plagiarizing other people’s content, which is NOT good.
So there it is the top 12 FREE Internet marketing tools that I use in my business. Thanks to these tools, I’ve been able to save a lot of time and effort. I really can’t imagine running my business without these tools.
What about you? What Free Internet marketing tools are you using in your Internet business? If you have one and it’s not covered here, please share with us in a comment below so that all of us can benefit. Thanks in advance!

Internet Marketing Tools (FREE) – The Top 12 (Part 1)
Thursday, September 3rd, 2009
I’d like to share with you the top 12 Free Internet marketing tools that I use in my Internet business. Simply put, I can’t afford NOT to have them. Without them, my business will be in a mess!
Below is a list of the top 6 Free Internet business tools in no particular order. The remaining 6 will covered in part 2 of this series.
Lastpass is an excellent free program where you can store all your online passwords into one neat little place on the Internet (so that you can access it anytime and from anywhere). In my Internet business I have so many different usernames and passwords that I couldn’t simply remember off the top of my head.
Yes I could create an excel spreadsheet to record all the different usernames and passwords (and I’ve done that), but having a safe online place to store them would be a lot better as this would save me a lot of time and effort when trying to access my private area from a remote location.
Previously, if I didn’t bring my laptop with me (which contains the master password excel file), then I can’t login to my private area. But with Last Pass, all the problems are eliminated.
Yes, there may be dangers in storing your usernames and passwords in a single location, but so far my data has always been kept intact and safe. It saves me A LOT of time and effort, so why not use it?
This is a Firefox plugin that actually tells you some very valuable and useful data. No more manually trying to figure out a particular web page’s Alexa rank, Google PageRank, how many pages are indexed in the search engines, how many backlinks it has, when the domain was first registered, etc.
You can get all these data without almost doing anything as they are automatically shown to you when the web page loads.
Valuable and useful data retrieval is just eyeballs away.
This tool is actually meant for Adwords advertisers to gauge how popular a keyword phrase is and to expand on keywords that are related to the base keywords advertisers are bidding on.
However, even though this tool is intended for Adwords advertisers, you can also utilize it to:
1. Guest estimate the demand for a particular keyword phrase (in other words, how many times the keyword phrase is searched for every month)
2. Find related keyword phrases. For example, if you type in “tennis shoes” into the tool, it will return related keyword phrases such as “red tennis shoes”, “professional tennis shoes”, and so on.
With this Firefox plugin you can download every online video that you encounter to your hard drive. Not only that, you can also convert the default .flv file type to .wmv or other popular video extensions.
Can’t download YouTube videos? Not anymore with this plugin!
Also, allow me to reveal one neat trick. This is especially useful if you spend a lot of time watching training videos.
Who has the time to watch 6 or 12-hours video courses? In this day and age, everyone wants instant results!
With Download Helper, your 6-hours video course can be easily consumed in 3 hours. Simply convert the default .flv file to .wmv file.
Then open Windows Media Player >> click “Now Playing” >> click “Enhancements” >> click “Play Speed Settings”.
A speed bar will appear and you can watch your video at a speed that’s comfortable for you (for me, it’s usually 1.5 to 2x speed depending on how fast the person in the video is speaking).
A major time saver!
This is a handy tool by Google that notifies you by email on topics that you want to monitor on. Everytime Google finds an entry (web page, news) related to your query (determined by the keywords you enter into Google Alerts), you’ll be notified by email.
You might be thinking “That’s all fine and dandy Welly, but how am I going to utilize this tool”?
Let’s take this post for example. This post is about the top Free Internet business tools. Now I can go ahead and go to Google Alerts and enter “free Internet business tools” as the keyword phrase I want to monitor.
Whenever Google finds anything related to this phrase, I’ll automatically be notified by email. I can then go to the original web page/blog that talks about “free Internet business tools” and leave my comment there, saying that they can get a comprehensive list of the top 14 Free Internet business tools. Of course, I’d be leaving valuable comments so as not to appear spammy.
This is also a Free program provided by Google that tracks how your website is doing in terms of the number of visitors, how they came to know about your site (from Google, article directories, some other sites, etc), how long they stay on your site, what’s your conversion rate, and so on.
You need to know these metrics if you want to truly maximize your visitor value. I’ve talked about this in this post some time ago.
All my sites are tracked by Google Analytics and you should give it a try as well if you haven’t yet.
We’ll take a look at the next 6 Free Internet marketing tools in my next post. Stay tuned as I’m very sure you’ll benefit a lot from these tools.
