Squeeze Ninja Review

29 Nov

I’ll try to cover everything as we go, however, let me begin by describing the process of securing your copy of Squeeze Ninja and uploading it to a URL so you can use it…

Seconds after you pay for the program you’ll receive your download link and a link to the introduction and instructions videos. The introduction video says that you’ll need the ftp file transfer software FileZilla, to place this software on your website, as it is a self hosted web-based application.

I use CuteFTP, but I had to pay a lot for it so FileZilla is a good free alternative…

If fact, watching the section that explains how to upload these files using FileZilla might just make your entire online experience better by helping you to understand why perhaps something else you bought might not have worked.

FileZilla makes it easy to upload, create, and organize files on your server so learning this skill from the Squeeze Ninja tutorials could easily be considered a bonus, although it’s not listed on the sales page.

You’ll find lots of hidden “bonuses” like this throughout Squeeze Ninja!

That said, uploading Squeeze Ninja to your website is a cinch, it’s a relatively small file and takes anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes to upload depending on your bandwidth.

Once it’s uploaded you simply copy and paste the product license numbers you have received into the form and you are ready to start!

You also receive access to step-by-step tutorials for every step of the Squeeze Ninja page creation process.

Surprisingly, with as much power as this software provides the instructions videos only took about a half hour to complete. However, after watching them, and then looking at Squeeze Ninja’s intuitive control panel I’m not sure the instructional videos were even necessary. The simple control panel in Squeeze Ninja is the only thing you need to concern yourself with whenever you want to create a squeeze page.

It’s set up so all you need to do is fill in blanks, and click buttons… SERIOUSLY! I know a lot of software programs claim that, but this one is actually telling the truth!

Every decision you need to make has a “Question Mark Icon” next to it, and if you hover over them, you’ll get a complete explanation of what exactly you should be doing.

I thought this “Question Mark Icon” tool to be an especially good feature, because if you don’t use this program very often, it will be nice to have these pop-up explanations there at your fingertips, to help jog your memory and move you along your way! You can build your entire squeeze page and everything following the Squeeze Ninja eight step form.

Let me go over this so you can understand how it works…

Any time you want to create a squeeze page, you’d start by logging into your control panel but if you’re already logged in, you can create several pages at that time.

Once at your online control panel, to begin creating a squeeze page you need to simply “click” the “Create New Site” button at the top of the page.

Once you “click” the “Create New Site” button, you’ll be instantly redirected to the eight step form. The real genius in this control panel is that it’s so straight forward! Any options that don’t apply are hidden, unless you need them, so the entire thing is uncluttered and easy to follow.

For instance, in step #1 you can choose whether or not to have tracking codes inserted. In the control panel, you’ll see a question that says “Use Tracking” and two radio buttons. If you leave the box checked “No” which it is by default, you’ll have no fields with which to concern yourself. However, if you check “Yes” the control panel will expand, giving you the options related to tracking codes and the forms needed to make them work!

The control panel is ingenious in this way because it only gives you the information you need when you need it! This is why, try as I might, to fool the software, every-time I created a squeeze page it looked and functioned beautifully! Every option you could hope for is at your fingertips!

You can decorate your site using gradients, different backgrounds, using images from the pre-loaded library of images that the software includes, or by uploading your own images using the “Browse” and “Upload” buttons in the control panel!

That’s right, once you have Squeeze Ninja uploaded you won’t ever need to use your .ftp or hosting control panel to upload images!

It even includes a WYSIWYG editor so editing your squeeze page content is super simple, with the ability to change font color, size and style as easy as typing into Microsoft’s word program.

If you want red titles in the “Impact font”, simply choose it from the drop down. You can choose to have the body text be in Tahoma or Arial the same way.

Want to bold a single word or italicize it? Then simply highlight the word with your cursor and click the style you find appealing!

This software doesn’t confine you to the old-fashioned out-of-date squeeze pages produced by other software. You truly get full control of how your website looks and feels.

It’s even easy to place video into your squeeze pages to really modernize them and push-up conversions!

Integrating your auto-responder account’s opt-in (regardless of which auto-responder you use) is a copy and paste snap, once you retrieve the code from your auto-responders website.

You can also add social sharing icons to your squeeze page so it promotes itself!

After you have designed the look and feel of your squeeze page, it is on to creating your thank-you page and choosing if you want to take advantage of any of the other options this software provides. All of this still within the eight step form at your Squeeze Ninja’s control panel!

You can upload your thank-you gift, right through the upload link the same way you would a custom header image, and people will only be able to download your gift after giving you their email address! This process is automatic. Again… I know a lot of software programs state this, but most of them don’t work right. Squeeze Ninja DOES!

You’re even reminded to add customer service links, but you don’t need to include them if you don’t want.

Finally, you’re given the last option which is whether or not you want to monetize your opt-in squeeze page. This software gives you several ways to make money just by building websites designed to give stuff away.

The first is by choosing whether or not to leave a “Powered by Squeeze Ninja” link in your footer. This option allows you to earn commissions each time someone clicks on the link and buys the software you are using.

If you feel that option is gauche, or you just want to take full credit for creating these incredible pages yourself, simply check “No” in the “Powered by” when completing the “bottom of squeeze page” section of the form.

The other way you can monetize your squeeze page is by adding affiliate offers, or your own offers to the mix!

This can be accomplished by either adding your JVZoo code or of course, you can fully customize your download page by adding any affiliate product link and image you’d like.

(You can even add your own products image and link, too!)

I’m not even sure I covered half of the customization options Squeeze Ninja provides! But the entire process is so simple, and best of all, it works!

As soon as you click “Done”, you’ll be spoon fed the links to your squeeze page, thank you page, and download page…

You can visit your squeeze page’s link, test it out, (it will work) and then start driving traffic to it!

As you can tell, I REALLY like this software and it actually does what it says it does!

I 110% recommend Squeeze Ninja for ANYONE who can’t build their own squeeze pages and monetize them with killer sales funnels! Get it by going to www.ThisKicksButt.com/SqueezeNinja

Buzzinar Review

13 Sep

The average internet marketer doesn’t approach the selling process properly. They don’t think of it as building a business, they just think they’re creating a product to sell. This is why 97% of internet business entrepreneurs fail miserably within the first year.

Making money online is easy. Heck, even a kid can make money selling baseball cards on eBay. Anybody can write a report in Microsoft Word and sell it on a blog for a couple of bucks using a Paypal button. Making money this way isn’t rocket surgery or brain science. As a matter of fact, everybody and their mother has a product teaching you how to make money online. But can these self proclaimed gurus teach you to create a real business with consistant mortgage paying income coming in? Sadly, the majority cannot.

This post is about a husband and wife team that have been living comfortably off their internet business income for years. They’ve generated several million dollars online since 2007. The couple I’m talking about is Omar and Melinda Martin who are very respected ethical marketers. They are even the creators of IMTrustWorthy.com and they have a nack for creating sales funnels that attract profits virally.

Omar and Melinda have been teaching their highly profitable sales funnel tactics to eager entrepreneurs for a high ticket consultation fee. Recently, Omar and Melinda released a product called Buzzinar which reveals their closely guarded, funnel building secrets and even provides members with the software tools, website themes and recourses to replicate their own success.

The Buzzinar members area is packed to the gills with useful stuff. This thing is like an internet marketers candy store. For starters, this thing is low priced and it’s not going to break anyone’s bank. So you can get in at whatever level you’re comfortable with and earn as you learn. The content is delivered in several ways, there’s a detailed pdf ebook that explains the viral sales funnel creation system and the ebook is accompanied by a professionally recorded audio course.

The detailed modular training is comprised of step by step mp4 videos that cover:

The Buzzinar Call (recorded live)
Funnel Building Concepts
Strategic List Building
The Autoresponder
The Viral Squeeze
Segmentation, Persuasion and Monetization
Free Traffic
Paid Traffic

These videos don’t just teach you what you should do and why you should be doing it. But they actually show you on screen (video professor style) exactly what to do. Down to which buttons to click and in what order. This is literally an expert profitable sales building system presented in a way that even a novice could accomplish it.

The Buzzinar system is more than just training. It also includes a very specific set of tools. These aren’t just some crappy little widgets that were thrown together either. These are the same exact tools that Omar and Melinda use in their business today. You’re getting a complete sales website with all the required Buzzinar funnel pages. You can easily modify the site for whatever product or funnel you want by following the instructions provided, there’s absolutely no limit to how many times you can repeat the process.

Since many of us, including Omar and Melinda use WordPress as a site building platform, Buzzinar also includes a WordPress theme that works in the same way as the html website provided; to attract customers, make sales and grow your list.

Buzzinar also includes, two powerful pieces of software. These come in the form of a WordPress plugin that you can use with your theme and an html application that you can upload to your html sites. The software is used in the squeeze process to attract new customers every time that someone opts into the squeeze page. The system is so simple that it is nothing less than a work of pure genius.

You’ll find that the layout of the members area is extremely user friendly and a pleasure to navigate. There are no gimmicks or hidden upsells to worry about. Omar and Melinda are as transparent as they come. You can even try out one of the lower memberships and upgrade later within the members area without being penalized or having to pay more. It truly is the way membership sites should be built.

I’m very proud to recommend to you the Buzzinar system if you are in fact looking to learn how to build a solid long lasting income from a couple of marketers that actually walk the walk. I look forward to seeing you in the Buzzinar members area and in the private Buzzinar Facebook group.

Rapid Affiliate Reviews Review

6 Feb

What is it?

The Rapid Affiliate Review System is a course that shows you how to promote products as an affiliate by creating reviews and building sites to host those reviews. You then use just a bit of search engine optimization, and you get free traffic that buys the products through your link. IF they buy… :)

The course shows how to find the products to review (you’ll be surprised at what he teaches because most peolple aren’t teaching this right), how to write the review, easy ways to get bonuses that make people buy, how to build the review sites, and even how to get traffic to them!

What’s included?

There’s a full manual for those of you who learn better via reading, and an entire video course that covers everything for those of you who are visual learners.

Not only that, but he also includes a “product review cheat sheet” that you just fill in the blanks and it creates your review for you, and a report on how to get in on big time launches and make a killing by doing reviews on just launched products.

You can even do this for big ticket items! $1000, $2000 or more commissions sound good to me! :)

Here’s a video showing everything that’s included…

Okay, what’s the downside to this?

Just like with ANY affiliate marketing tactic that actually WORKS this does take time…

You actually have to go through the product, review it, create the review, create the site to put the review on, and then do the recommended search engine optimization.

However if you can create one of these sites a week, then in just a few months you could be making a lot of money in your affiliate marketing business.

Are there any cool bonuses?

Yes there are… I spoke about a few of them, but Tom (the product creator) also includes his Microsourcing Secrets Course that teaches you how to outsource like I’ve never seen anyone teach it.

If you’ve been wanting to outsource, but don’t know how to get started buying this course and getting this bonus is worth 10x your investment. Yes… It’s that good!

And you could even outsource the entire tactics that is taught in the Rapid Affiliate Review course with what you learn from the Microsourcing Secrets course!

Who is it for?

This product is for newbies and advanced marketers both… For you newbies it teaches everything very step-by-step. There’s nothing he doesn’t cover that I could think of. For you advanced marketers this is a great way to add more money to your income. Like I said above, build one site a week, and you’ll watch your income grow and grow!

It’s super easy for everyone to implement!

Who is it NOT for?

If you’re looking for a way to push a few buttons and make some money this isn’t for you. This actually takes some work, and you need to be focused and dedicated to this tactic to make money from it. But you are greatly rewarded for your efforts because this DOES work!

Should I buy it?

If you want to make money as an affiliate marketer or add another income stream to your business then yes you should.

You can get the course for less than $10 by going to www.ThisKicksButt.com/RapidAffiliateReviews

WP Viral Cash Plugin Review

27 Jan

What is it?

The WP Viral Cash plugin allows your customers to get discounts (that you set) by sharing what they are buying from your on their Facebook page.

All it takes is someone purchasing from your store and sharing it one time then… BOOM, you’re getting viral traffic over and over and over again.

Here is a video showing you exactly how this works!

Who is it for?

This is for anyone who is wanting to sell more of their products…

My plan is to create a website, put all of my products on it, and have a place where my customers can come for ALL of my products and get discounts on those products when they share that they are buying my product.

This is going to get me tons of backlinks PLUS tons of orders because of all their friends seeing the links to the products my customer is buying, and then a lot of those will buy.

Viral marketing at its best! :)

You could do this with your own products, or products you have rights to, so even if you don’t have your own products right now you could get good products that you have the right to sell and use them with this amazing plugin!

Okay, what’s the downside to this?

It does take some time to get everything setup. Installing everything you need is pretty quick and easy, but you have to add all your products to your blog (if you haven’t already). I plan to add 5 products a day to my blog so I’m not stuck doing this for hours. I know it’s going to work great, but I have limited time so will be doing it little by little.

Should I buy it?

Yes if you have your own products and services and want to sell more of them, then I highly recommend that you get this plugin.

Occupy Google Review – NO BS!

9 Jan

What is it?

The Occupy Google course is a course that will show you how to get the pages of your website to the top of Google in 12 weeks or less. It’s all taught via videos, resource documents, checklists, and mindmaps, so that there is a learning tool for everyone no matter how they learn the best.

Basically this is the creator of the course total plan on getting backlinks to a webiste to get it to rank in Google for the keywords you want it to rank for. Even if you have really competitive keywords you’re trying to rank for this course will get you ranked for them. It will just take a bit more work…

Most people will be able to use the first 4 weeks of this course alone to get their sites ranking, some will need the first 8 weeks, but only few will need all 12 weeks.

I was absolutely amazed with how everything is taught… As I said it’s a 12 week course, but it’s Tbroken down into 3 units…

1. Building the foundation – First 4 weeks
2. Ramping up link building – Second 4 weeks
3. Advanced tactics – Third 4 weeks

Let me take you inside the course and show you exactly what you’ll learn…

Who is it for?

This is for anyone who wants to get traffic from the search engines. It’s said that search engine traffic is the best kind of traffic. I disagree with that. I have found that referral traffic (where you have an affiliate program and have affiliate sending you traffic) works the best. However SEO is a HUGE part of the traffic we get with our niche businesses.

Okay, what’s the downside to this?

As I said in the video the only two things I don’t like about this course is…

1. The creator of the course didn’t include come kind of overview of showing you how to make sure your site is ready for backlinks. Meaning you’ve done your keyword research, you’ve got good content on your site related to your keywords, you’ve done your on page optimization, etc, etc…

BONUS: Anyone who buys through my link though I will send you a short workshop I did on how to make sure you’re site is ready for backlinks.

2. He recommends a ranking tracker (these allow you to track where your site is in the search engines for a certain keyword phrase) that I don’t care for. I use SerpAlert… Well worth the cost and gives you much easier to read data… You can get it from www.ThisKicksButt.com/SerpAlertPro

Should I buy it?

If you are looking for a proven way to get backlinks so that you can get your site ranking in the search engines this course is for you, and you should buy it. What is taught is proven to work, and I am actually going to be using it on several new sites I have.

After Google’s latest Panda update, this is a surefire way to get the backlinks you need, the way you need them to be able to make Google happy and put your sites at the top of their searches!

You can grab the Occupy Google course at www.ThisKicksButt.com/OccupyGoogle

Note: Although I do get paid when you buy through my links, I was NOT given this course to review. I had a reader ask me about it, I bought it, and did a real review. :)

This Does Not Kick Butt

4 Jan

So now that I’ve turned ThisKicksButt.com into a review site, I am sure I will find things that do NOT kick butt. :) When I find them I will be sure to post my reviews here. :)

Stay tuned…

Tracking Issues

19 Oct

So I got tired of the tracking service I was using. It just kept breaking in this way or that, so I’ve decided to take link tracking into my own hands and incorporate it with blogging. :)

YEAH!

So I setup a blog using WordPress, got the Pretty Link Plugin from blairwilliams.com/pretty-link and voila… I now have a link tracking program. :)

The first link I cloaked was my PaySpree affiliate link.

Here is what my standard link look liked… payspree.com/r/5293

Now using the Pretty Link plugin, it looks like this… www.ThisKicksButt.com/PaySpree

And when I login to my admin area of my blog, I can see how many clicks it gets. :)

LOVE it…

I don’t see how I can use it to track my advertising, so that’s a draw back, but I am going to go check out the Pro version. We shall see… :)
