A couple of days ago I provided you with a “heads up” about an amazing new viral marketing tool that will be launched shortly by Colin Klinkert, Co-Founder of Viral URL and Viral Hosts. It is called “Viral Bookmarking” and it solves the three biggest problems content creators face when creating “quality one-way links” to their sites.

Read this post to get the details:

http://askjamesholmes.com/viral-bookmarking-guarantees-quality-one-way-links

Colin just released this video that shares the back office of Viral Bookmarking and shows you how simple it is to obtain quality one-way back links from hundreds of real people and unique IP Addresses worldwide.

As I shared in my prior posting, I believe Viral Bookmarking will become the standard tool for creating automated one-way back links provided by real people – not robots. I recommend that you sign up for an account and gift this a try and see if you can generate more traffic, opt ins and sales using this bookmarking strategy.

Please be sure to leave a comment and let me know other ways in which you are creating back links.

I am here to help you succeed in your business and life!

Maybe it is a karma thing or watch what you put out into the Universe thing or maybe it was just time for me to get off the fence and join the smart phone nation, regardless of the reason I am forced to buy a new cell phone – excuse me handheld device.

My daughters and I have been talking about upgraded to smart phones and the timeline was to be January 2011 – that was before I dumped a bottle of rubbing alcohol on my Blackberry and fried it! Since it really doesn’t make sense to buy another Blackberry only to replace it in a couple of months, I am going to take the plunge now and I need your help.

Making a tech move usually requires a little research in order to identify the best features, compare reliability and determine which platform and specific is best suited to my priorities. Sounds reasonable but I need a phone now, so I want to draw on the advice of my readers, followers and fellow techy marketers who have taken the plunge

What do you say… iPhone or Droid?

Do me a favor and leave a comment with your opinions, recommendations, stories, etc. I would love to take the readers digest crash course in smart phone research with your assistance here on my blog. For taking your time to share your thoughts, I will think of some really cool way to thank you … I’ll send you a free product, send you an audio or something like that.

Thank you in advance!

My friend Colin Klinkert (Co-Founder of Viral URL and Viral Host) has just introduced an amazing new membership site designed to provide hundreds of one-way links for it’s members from hundreds of REAL PEOPLE leveraging the most important bookmarking sites such as Twitter, Digg, Delicious, MisterWong and Reddit among others. The site is called “Viral Bookmarking” and it easy to use, highly leveraged, and the results are guaranteed.

It cannot be disputed, back-links are the key to growing your page rank and driving traffic to your sites. Social bookmarking when done correctly can ensure your success at achieving these goals. Unfortunately many link wheel strategies, link exchanges and content syndication networks are ineffective because the links are either two-way or they come from the same small group of IP Addresses and the search engines discount them. Viral Bookmarking solves this problem by providing links from a wide range of members with unique IP Addresses from around the world.

Members also have the option to promote the site as an affiliate and earn 50% commissions on all credit purchases and 30% in bookmarking credits made by their direct referrals to the site. So, not only are you going to improve your SEO and Page Rank, you also will be creating a semi-passive income stream and earn free bookmarking credits as an affiliate.

This short introduction video explaining the idea behind Viral Bookmarking

I am personally adding Viral Bookmarking as part of the link building strategy for all of my sites and I strongly encourage you to take a serious look as well and consider if this new community can help you achieve your business objectives. The other sites that Colin Klinkert has helped to create have proven to be of extreme value for Internet marketers worldwide and I predict Viral Bookmarking will soon set the standard for reliable one-way links with relative ease and guaranteed reliability.

To view the Site Visit: Viral Bookmarking

I invite you to watch the short video on the home page that explains exactly how Viral Bookmarking works along with all of the details on how to sign up and take advantage of this brand new site. Please feel free to post your comments here and let me know other methods you are using to create critical back links for your sites.

I speak with people everyday who are looking for ways to make money online, not millions of dollars but an extra $500 to $1,000 per month which they tell me would have a real impact on their lives. There is so much hype on the Internet about making “easy millions” online and it is often overlooked  that there are thousands of people looking for a way to make an honest few hundred or few thousands dollars per month, which really is not that difficult. I thought about this fact quite a lot over the weekend and I came up with a simple strategy that will make you an extra $500 to $1,000 in the next 30 days if you actually do what I map out in this blog post.

This is a simple three step formula and it is vital that you follow the formula 100% in order to ensure your success and improve your bank account balance. I am going to provide you with all of the resources and the steps required to produce results including the resources you will need and my personal coaching on how to use them correctly.  Are you ready?

Ok, let’s take action!

Here is my $1,000 in 30 days money making formula:

First you need something to sell, a high quality product or service. The easiest way to solve this is by marketing ClickBank products using free and low cost forms of adverting. In order to generate income you must have a product or service to sell and an audience or list of willing buyers to sell them to – I am going to provide you with both.

Why ClickBank?

ClickBank is an free online marketplace of more than 10,000 information products in every imaginable niche -many of these niches are high in demand. ClickBank facilitates 26,000 transactions per day – you will only need to capture one of those transactions each day!

ClickBank is free, their sales support is excellent, they pay your commissions directly by check, and ClickBank is recognized as the leader in information product marketing worldwide.

To see an example visit my ClickBankStore

Step 1: Secure Your ClickBank Pro Account:

First you will need to set up your ClickBank Pro account which will serve as the gateway for your new venture.

Sign up for your account here: http://AskJamesHolmes.com/ClickBankPro

Why ClickBankPro?

ClickBank Pro is the most powerful ClickBank storefront platform for marketing ClickBank products, it is free to join and the upgrade to pro is ridiculously inexpensive. I would strongly recommend that you upgrade to a Pro Account for either $25.99 for a three month membership, $59.99 for a year membership or $99.99 for a lifetime membership. If for any reason you are not wiling to invest $25.99 to make $1,000 in real income you should stop reading this now and close out of this blog post.

Having your ClickBank Pro account will allow you to funnel your prospects into your own ClickBank storefront and make multiple sales from each buyer, it also provides you with the ability to add ClickBank product ads and the entire 10,000 plus product catalog to your website or blog.

Sign up for your free account and Pro Upgrade HERE

Step 2: Sign Up For These Free Marketing List:

If you already have a list you should create campaigns to send to your subscribers, if you use safelist you will want to create mailings for those accounts as well. The lists that I am providing here are essential to create the consistent sales you will need to generate $1,000 per month. Carefully consider the “One Time Offers” made for an upgraded account if your budget allows, which will allow you to send mail to more members and therefore make more sales!

#8.   http://askjamesholmes.com/qualitysafelist

#9.   http://askjamesholmes.com/safelistextreme

#10. http://askjamesholmes.com/EliteSafeList

Don’t get lazy here, you will need to sign up for all of these accounts and if you are a member of other safelist you can add them to this list – but do not replace this list. If you need direction on how to set up your safelist accounts correctly using Gmail addresses be sure this read this report and follow the described process in order to preserve your email in-box sanity. It is important that you set up a “contact” email address and a “list” email address using Gmail for this project.

Step 3: Listen to the “How to Coaching Call” Recording

I have benefited tremendously from the majority of information products that I have acquired during my time online. I dramatically shortened my learning curve by reading e-books on a variety of topics which have empowered me to build a thriving Internet Marketing business.

There are several topics which every marketer must master in order to leverage their efforts and produce consistent results. Recently a fellow marketer and good friend of mine and fellow marketer suggested that I create a giveaway website and share a couple of e-books from my library free of charge.

I have done something even better and I want to share it with you today. I have a total of seven popular titles covering a variety of topics relevant to Internet Marketing all for you to access for free. In addition, I am going to offer you “Give Away Rights” to the full collection so that you can pay it forward and duplicate my actions.

The process to claiming your free e-books is simple – follow these steps

1. Go Here and Enter Your Name and Email Address: http://BuildASubscriberList.net

2. Immediate access will be granted to download your free e-books

3. Consider the “Give Away Rights” offer for the use of my system

Here are a few of the titles you will receive for free

Advanced SEO Techniques (Currently selling for $27!)
Maximum Profits With Private Label Rights (Currently selling for $27!)
Become An Affiliate Marketing Master (Currently selling for $27!)
Viral Traffic Generation (Currently selling for $27!)
Dominate The Web 2.0 Market (Currently selling for $27!)
Super Joint Venture Secrets (Currently selling for $27!)
Blogging For Cash (Currently selling for $27!)

Once you have downloaded all seven books, select one of the titles that relates to an area in your business you are currently working on or want to learn more about. As with everything, an idea is only as good as the action taken to produce results.

I am here to help you succeed in your business and life!

I have launched two new article sites that will bring you tons of targeted traffic if you think a little outside of the box and spend 10 minutes every-other day on each site. Both sites are article sites and as you know articles can be used several ways to drive traffic to your blogs or websites. I am going to provide you with a brief review of each site and then share a few ideas on how you can benefit from each site.

The first site is called  ”My Ezine World” and it is a niche e-zine article site that post articles in a wide range of niches and the articles are updated daily. You will note that in addition to aggregating  niches ranging from self improvement to politics, I have also created a category titled “Internet Marketing” with 22 subcategories - new categories will be added every month along with hundreds of new e-zine articles.

When it comes to sourcing popular content in the Internet and social media niches “Mashable” and “Tech Crunch” are among the best resources and both are closely followed. I have added an RSS feed for both of these powerful sites allowing you to source their articles on My Ezine World to bookmark, tweet to and help leverage to help you drive traffic.

If you are working in a niche that is not currently included on the site please leave a comment here or on the “Contact Us” form on the site and I will research your niche and the authority sites in the niche and consider adding it to My Ezine World.

Full access to the site is free and you can use as many articles as you need to maximize your viral marketing efforts.

Here are a few ways to leverage this site and drive traffic:

1. Post comments on the articles and include “deep links” with your comment registration. This means that you link to a related article within your blog, not just your home page URL. If you have not authored a post that is a perfect match, find something similar and link that post.

2. Copy the article URL and send it out with a Tweet.

4. Write reviews on your blog on articles that interest you.
