BlogRush Is Out Of The Blog Marketing Business

By Luis Galarza - Internet Marketing Tips.

John Reese Just Announce That He Is Shutting Down BlogRush, Which Is Now Completely Out Of The Blog Marketing Business Market!

This type of news are the ones showing that even top Internet marketing experts and gurus can have a failure, this time John Reese the marketer that made over one million dollars in one day in from of a huge crowd in a one of his seminars just announce that he is shutting down his blog traffic exchange service called BlogRush, a viral blog marketing tool that he created back in 2007.

John develop a big launch campaign for this blog promotion tool, I even announce the launch and a test project of the viral marketing tool on this blog to see its traffic generation potential by myself. Many other bloggers had a lot of bad feedbacks about Blogrush, but most of those bloggers were geeks, and we all know that geeks don't like marketing or business related blogs or sites, that's why their feedback about a marketing tool or product has no value for me or many smart online entrepreneurs.

The Blogrush idea didn't appeal to a lot of bloggers that just blog for fun, but it actually created a huge buzz in the world of online entrepreneurs, where most bloggers are using online content management tools to make money online or to promote their businesses or to provide a better customer experience. But, the tool awake big concerns about the service longevity, usability, and performance. And there was a big confusion if the service was worth using or not, because at the beginning you only heard good feedbacks about it, but most of them were from affiliates trying to get you sign-up under them, for that reason I needed to try it and tested myself to see if it really work, but I knew it wouldn't have the power John said it had.



Fail The Test.

Like a said before I put the service to the test in two of my sites, and the results were very similar, I notice that the service had a lot of loop holes, and only high traffic blogs were able to really reap the traffic benefits from the tool. Leaving most new or low traffic blogs with no chance to use the service successfully, and actually it hurt their them because you were licking you hard work traffic to other blogs, gaining almost nothing in exchange. Other problem also were:

- Low click-thru rates, very low, which give you low chances to turn it into profit.

- The click-out to other blogs were higher that the actual click-thru, meaning you were giving a lot for nothing.

- The quality of most of the blog was low, which give your readers a bad taste of your personal recommendations that can turn into loosing visitors.

- The traffic wasn't instant like John said.

Those were the reasons I decide to take the Blogrush widget off my blogs, and the funny part was that after I took the widget off, I was getting one or two visitors per month from the service, that is just another loop hole on the service.


Recommended Blog Marketing Tools.

If you really want to bring steady quality traffic to your blog I recommend you to use service like:

- Zimbio Wikizines.
- Social Bookmarking sites.
- Squidoo Lenses.
- Google Knols.

I also recommend you to focus on article marketing and SEO for better results.

Steve Jobs Death: Article Marketing Campaign Or Writing Mistake

By Luis Galarza - Internet Marketing Tips.

Even Big Companies Like Bloomberg Use Remarkable Headlines Or Article Titles To Generate Buzz... But, A "Steve Jobs Death" Type Of Headline Can Fire Back. Internet Marketing Campaign or Mistake, You Decide!

First you need to know that Mr. Apple I mean, Mr. Steve Jobs is alive and healthy, and the "Steve Jobs Death" headline wasn't a sick joke, or at least that's what the people from Bloomberg said, they also told the press that the article wasn't an article marketing campaign to increase web traffic or anything like that, they said that the whole thing was a big printing or typing mistake... I don't know about that!

The true is that many content sites, like newspapers, news portals, and blogs use bizarre or limit pushing headlines or titles copy writing strategies to create instant buzz for their articles or posts. And it works.

Here is more information about the article:

"Steve Jobs death has been greatly exaggerated by ZDNet's Jason D. O'Grady -- News outlet Bloomberg gave Apple fans and investors a huge scare late yesterday when it accidentally published an incomplete version of Steve Jobs obituary over its wire service. Although the service quickly retracted the release, it’s an eerily-fascinating read complete with XXXX marks for the cause and date of his death. What’s even more interesting is Blolomberg’s [...]"

The Problem With This Article Strategy.

When you use this headline writing strategy you need to know that it can back fire, just like it happen to Bloomberg and instead of giving you visitors or readers that can be turn into leads or sales, you will turn those visitors into enemies and they will pass on the bad viral message about you, your site, and your company. Another problem is that is if you use it wrong the traffic that you will get will be completely off target, which will turn into low web conversions and ROI (return on investment).

How good an article marketing campaign can be if it doesn't get high responses? Responses and high conversions is what your Internet marketing plan it should be about, your responses can represent increasing targeted traffic, generating leads, getting higher credibility levels to increase sales, and target branding exposure. Article can indeed do all this when is use right.


Don't Through This Strategy In The Trash Just Yet!

Like I mention before, using headlines that are bizarre or push limits work very good when you add your targeted keywords or message with it, just like I did on this post. Why do this, first to avoid what happen to Bloomberg's with their "Steve Job Death" title, and second to make your article title do the reader prospecting for you. What I mean is that you need to do some sales qualification right on the title so, you get your target audience to read the information, this will give buzz and better web conversions.

If you use Google Knol, article directories, or social networks, it doesn't matter where you post your content just be careful how you use it.

In Conclusion: When using this article marketing strategy make sure you don't experiment, instead have a set campaign goal and plan accordingly.

News: AzoogleAds Becomes Epic Advertising Because of Fraud or...

By Luis Galarza - Internet Marketing Strategies.

AzoogleAds Network Is Now Own By Epic Advertising... Company Fraud Problems or Expansion Development. Let Check The News!

Lately many companies has been changing names, or sold to bigger players in the market place for many reasons including fraud, this time is AzoogleAds a company that was making a lot of noise for some time... even top online marketers were recommending this CPA base contextual advertising network as a great way to make money online from blogs or PPC (Pay-Per-Click) advertising campaigns.

Then the noise when away... even those marketers using it as a main source of income took their AzoogleAds contextual ads down. Many didn't said why, Azoogle reps said that the name changing was a part of their new business development plan... and selling the company to Epic Advertising will give them the opportunity to increase their global market reach.

Here is some information I found on Clickz:

"The move essentially establishes a parent company name under which AzoogleAds and the firm's SEM management service, Bazaar Advertising, will be sold. "As of tomorrow, the entire company, executive team and sales team will all be Epic Advertising employees," said CMO Michael Sprouse, adding, "We actually have been thinking about a name change for some time."

The company also aims to ramp up its overseas expansion, and hopes consolidation under the new moniker aids that process by clarifying its business offerings. It recently aligned with London's 77Agency and Israel-based AdsMarket to build out international ad inventory in its network. "AzoogleAds is also a distribution arm; we really wanted to have a brand that sits above our distribution arm," said Sprouse.

Regarding the new partnerships, he continued, "We plan to replicate that model through Europe or whatever countries we end up doing business in." The firm will also launch a platform allowing small and medium-sized businesses to create targeted display, search, and coupon ads sold on a performance-basis."

Yeah, yeah, yeah... what about the fraud investigation AzoogleAds guys?

"AzoogleAds was investigated by Florida's CyberFraud Task Force for unfair and deceptive trade practices relating to online ringtone offers. It agreed in November 2007 to pay the division $1 million. Investigators claimed consumers responding to the firm's Web ads for free mobile ringtones often ended up unwittingly registering for subscription plans automatically billed to their mobile phone accounts. The agreement with the Sunshine State requires Azoogle to disclose the true cost of promotions advertised as "free."

Since settling with Florida, the company has indicated a willingness to help clean up the mobile content promotions sector, and told ClickZ News it has been in contact with Truste and the Mobile Marketing Association regarding establishing best practices for ads and promotions pushing ringtones, wallpapers, and other mobile goodies. The company has also assisted the Florida AG's office in further investigations into companies accused of fraudulent online advertising."

Looks like the massive amount of online demand for ringtones is making even good companies go back, and this also include PPC affiliate marketing entrepreneurs.

Hopefully Azoogle realized that they can still make a lot of money using ethical marketing practices that can help them build a real brand authority in the industry.

To learn proven Internet marketing strategies, I recommend you to check Insider Secrets To Marketing Your Business Online 2008 Version. This is the number one Internet marketing training for over 10 years.


In Conclusion: As a online marketer you need keep your marketing practices ethical and clean to really build a long term business. And as an affiliate marketing business person you need to learn that even big profitable merchants can turn to the dark side, s keep your eyes and ears open. Hope you can learn a good lesson from this AzoogleAds and Epic Advertising merge after a fraud investigation.

Google Toolbar Overwriting 404 Error Pages

By Luis Galarza - Affiliate Marketing Secret Training Guide Blog

Yeah, It's True... Google Toolbar Is Overwriting 404 Error Pages All Over The Web. For Some People This Doesn't Mean Anything. But, For Online Marketers Means That Google Is Stylling Part Of Your Virtual Real Estate Which Can Be Use For Integrated Marketing Practices!

This is a big bad marketing push from Google that is actually taking online marketers virtual real estate that can be use to market their products, for advertising sales, and others... How bad is the news about Microsoft buying Yahoo that makes Google get into bad Internet marketing practices, to push their brand in front of their Toolbar users.

I came across this Internet marketing news about Google title "Google's Toolbar Reportelly Overwriting 404 Pages Across The Web", and got me thinking about the "why?" that is making the company that fights against "Web Spam" is now applying web spam strategies to get more brand exposure and to send Internet users to their search engine site.

And this is not the only thing I don't like about their online business methods, but the fact that by doing what they doing, it's taking traffic for online entrepreneurs, it's also taking your virtual real estate, and your opportunity of monetizing those pages.

Here is what the post said:

"Reports are that when you install the toolbar and surf to a 404 page, a page not found, Google will replace the 404 page with their own page.

I have not tested this myself, because I am on a Mac and this is an issue with a Windows toolbar. I do not know if it affects all 404 pages, both default 404 pages and custom 404 pages or just default 404 pages. In any event, this is what Google uses to replace your 404 page:"

Google need to stop this right away!

News: Yahoo Said No To Micorsoft Takeover Bid Offer

By Luis Galarza - Affiliate Marketing Secret Training Guide Blog

Todays Internet Marketing News Number One Article Was The One Referring To Yahoo Saying No To Microsoft Takeover Bid Offer!

If you been reading the last Internet marketing and online business news you should know that Microsoft wants to buy Yahoo. Days ago Microsoft offer $44.6 billion or for those investors $31 per share... Well it didn't happen, because Yahoo rejected the bid.... here is what happened:

"The rebuff, formally announced early Monday, wasn't a surprise because Yahoo had leaked its intention over the weekend.

As expected, Yahoo's board unanimously decided to spurn Microsoft after concluding the offer -- originally worth $44.6 billion or $31 per share -- "substantially undervalues" one of the Internet's prized franchises. The cash-and stock deal is now valued at about $40 billion, or $28.91 per share, because of a drop in Microsoft's market value.

But Yahoo didn't raise antitrust concerns about the proposed deal and included language that seemed to invite a higher offer from Microsoft, the world's largest software maker."

Source: Yahoo News

This is a crazy amount of money but I still thinking that Yahoo worth way more than that, and I'm not along, because I check the results of a Yahoo poll asking their visitors "what they think would be a fair bid for Microsoft to offer?" And the winner amount today still is $40 or more per share.

Come on Microsoft... we are talking about buying Yahoo the number one community portal on the Internet! You guys need to ask Mr. Bill Gates to go back to one of his personals bank accounts and take some extra change, because $44.6 billion is not much when you talking about Yahoo.

Here what Microsoft had to said:

"Microsoft, though, didn't seem inclined to raise the bid Monday, releasing a statement describing its current bid as "full and fair."

Calling Yahoo's decision "unfortunate," Microsoft didn't back off from its quest either. "Based on conversations with stakeholders of both companies, we are confident that moving forward promptly to consummate a transaction is in the best interests of all parties," the Redmond, Wash.-based company said.

Microsoft also emphasized it's prepared to "pursue all necessary steps" to get the deal done, raising the prospect that it could take the bid directly to Yahoo shareholders with a so-called "exchange offer" or escalate the acrimony even further by trying to oust Yahoo's 10-member board later this year."

This guys better purchase Yahoo before Google or someone else jumps in the deal and wins the bid.

"While assessing its response to Microsoft, Yahoo's board also examined a wide range of alternatives that included forging an ad partnership with Google, which paid nearly $5 billion in marketing commissions to thousands of Web sites last year.

Without identifying its sources, the Times of London also reported Yahoo is exploring a merger with Time Warner Inc.'s AOL, another popular Internet property that has been struggling in recent years. A Yahoo spokesman declined to comment on the report.

Investors appear convinced Microsoft's bid remains Yahoo's best bet, given the Sunnyvale-based company's profits have been steadily declining despite a management shake up eight months ago and repeated promises of a turnaround extending back to 2006."

Yahoo will be sold but for a lot more money than Microsoft first bid!

Hitwise said that now 60% of Google Blog Search traffic comes directly from Google News. And yes, Technorati still very popular but after users complaint about update delays to the Technorati blog rankings and a frew of other problems have lowered their site and service populatity among bloggers.
