Well everyone I hope you all had a wonderful February! As you can see I wasn’t able to post much on the blog because I was traveling for literally a solid month. Sometimes I hate being away from home for such long periods of time, however, I am always willing to do whatever it takes to push forward in all of the businesses I am pursuing. It’s that whole attitude I talk about “failing isn’t an option” that really allows me to push through the day to day activities and stay focused and positive.
Anyway I wanted to let you all know that after a very long wait the SocialAdsPro Software is finally completed and ready for you to use! This stuff literally saves you tons of time on Twitter and Facebook advertising. I am going to list just a few things that it can do for you below:
Twitter Software:
Tweet Later - Basically you “pre write” many tweets and set the software to “tweet” to your Twitter account at certain intervals of time (every hour, 2 hours etc). This keeps your account active all the time and can cause huge increases in the number of people that follow you. I use this software on my own personal account, and it works!
Target & Follow - With this option you can target specific types of people (basically people interested in specific things) and then auto follow all of them. This helps you build a “targeted” Twitter following.
Manage Multiple Accounts - If you have more than 1 Twitter account you can manage them all from within this software!
Facebook Software:
This basically allows you to automatically split test tons of ads, creatives, images, ad copies and targeting aspects. The software automatically uploads the ads to Facebook saving you a ton of time!
We spent a ton of time developing some of this software and we have more on the way! As I stated before we launched SocialAdsPro at an introductory price of only $19.95/month. I am going to leave it at that price for the next few days only. The price is going to go up simply to cover ongoing development cost. If you want in on this software now is the time to get in on it and your monthly membership fee will never go up!
Remember as a member you get access to any future software we develop for the SocialAdsPro network. It’s a great deal and we are putting a ton of time into making this software rock! I hope you all enjoy the heck out of it!

I am also looking for “topics” that you would like for me to cover on this blog. Shoot me some comments and questions so I can continue to provide you with the information you need to help you succeed!

All I can say is “wow” I am glad to be home! I just spent the last five days in Las Vegas for the Affiliate Summit convention. If you haven’t been you should make plans right now to attend Affiliate Summit in August 2010 it’s being held in New York. If you want more information on Affiliate Summit just visit www.affiliatesummit.com.
Anyway for those of you that don’t know exactly what this event is let me give you just a small overview of what happens and why you need to be here. Basically this is the convention of the year for affiliate marketers. The event brings together advertisers (those people that pay you to send them sales/leads), affiliates (that’s those of you sending the traffic to these offers), and media/advertising companies (these are the companies helping you drive traffic)….. so can you see why you need to be there now?
No matter what role you play in the affiliate space there will be some great contacts for you. When I arrived in Las Vegas I met many people that we drive traffic for and I also met people that drive traffic to some of my products and services. It’s a great place to network, make deals happen and put a name with a face in most cases. Remember I have always said that networking is a key component to success I even dedicated a chapter to it in my book “The Hidden Millionaire”. This is the event that holds the key to building your network. And no I am not getting paid to promote the event I simply believe that knowledge is power….. and this event can give you a great deal of knowledge because you are putting yourself in the right place at the right time with the right people.
With that said I am really happy to announce we are just a day or two away from launching SocialAdsPro and you guys are going to love it! This is a suite of software and tools that I am developing to keep you ahead of the curve and help you automate some of the social media advertising. I am not charging some ridiculous fee for it either! In face right now if you pre register and enroll today it’s only gonna cost $19.95 a month to use this software.. and that includes free updates (meaning when I add new software you get it free with your membership). I am also doing some training modules on social media advertising to really help you understand the concept and how these tools can and will help you with your marketing. If you want to get enrolled just watch this video I made for you now Enroll Now - SocialAdsPro
I hope you all are having an incredible 2010 so far! Remember to stay motivated, engaged and positive. You can do anything you set your mind to provided you work hard. Success doesn’t come to you….. you go get it.

Well it’s Christmas morning at about 9:30am. My entire family is still sleeping and I am awake! Go figure so I decided I would share some insight on Twitter with you this morning. Think of it as my Christmas gift to those of you who read my blog, follow me on Twitter and simply desire to learn as much as you possibly can about Internet Marketing.
Anyway back to my story about Twitter. I am in the process of developing some really cool and useful applications for social networks. The software will be called SocialAdsPro and will encompass Facebook, MySpace, Twitter and even YouTube. Well the Twitter software is finished and is in beta testing. One of the features I added to it is the “tweet later” feature. Basically this just means you can pre-load hundreds of tweets and then tell the software to basically “tweet every X amount of time”. What this does is make sure that your account is actively posting a new tweet throughout the entire day.
Now originally I added this feature as more of an “advertising” tool. Basically tweet 1 advertisement about your affiliate site or products for every 10 or 15 tweets you post. Seemed logical and certainly seemed like it could help drive traffic to affiliate offers. One thing I did not count on was the increase in followers I have acquired over the last 3 or 4 days. I have gained almost 100 followers and guess what? I haven’t followed a single person to get that increase!
With Twitter the big key is acquiring followers without you having to go follow 100000 people to get them. The reason for this is pretty simple Twitter has a ratio rule meaning you can’t follow more than X % of the number of people following you. This means getting people to follow you is important, if you want to build your Twitter account. So all of these “auto follow” programs are great but at a certain point if people don’t start following you back you can’t grow.
See people value information. They value it so much that they are willing to “take action” to get it. All I did was simply tweet 10 or 15 times per day about Internet Marketing and my Twitter follower list is growing every single day! I think this is a very important concept that most people completely overlook about Twitter. The program was designed with this “auto-tweet” feature to make sure I could advertise on my account, but in reality it’s more of a “gain followers” feature.
It’s not hard to make money with Twitter. There are many services like Sponsored Tweets that will actually pay you to allow them to post/tweet ads onto your Twitter account. Guess what determines how much you get paid? Typically how many followers you have and how active your account is which is exactly why I am developing this software.
I hope you learned a bit today about Twitter. Remember it’s important to tweet relevant information not just a bunch of ads. If you do this you can make your Twitter list grow and earn more money!
Merry Christmas -
Anthony Morrison

First and foremost I want to thank everyone for getting on our teleconference calls and really staying engaged. Obviously those calls are completely free to those of you who have joined one of my programs and I do them simply to help you in every way possible. As you probably know we discussed how to reduce your PPC cost (pay per click marketing cost) so you can get more bang for your buck, which basically just means a better ROI.
Here is a breakdown of exactly what I suggest you do in order to make this happen. Start off on AdBrite or even on Google and create a PPC ad for whatever you are marketing. You can create a written text ad or even a creative (image) ad to get started. I suggest running that ad for a minimum of one week so you can get stats on it for every day of the week including weekends. Once you have accomplished this here are the things you want to look at:
1. What is your CPC (cost per click)
2. What is your CTR (click through ratio) meaning how many people click on your ad vs how many people the ad is shown to during this time.
Here is why this is important right now you are “paying per click” but most networks offer another way to pay for your advertising which is called CPM. CPM (cost per thousand views) means you pay simply to be seen and you select how much you are willing to pay per thousand times your ad is shown. Obviously they have minimum bid amounts etc depending on the network/platform you are using to advertise. This method is great ONLY if you have a high CTR because remember you are paying to be seen so even if your ad gets no clicks you still pay.
The reason you start off with a PPC campaign is it’s like having a safety net below you. If the ad doesn’t generate clicks guess what, you don’t pay. However, once we have some data let’s assume we see the following after our first week running the ad:
1. CPC is averaging .50 (50 cents)
2. CTR is averaging 1%
If the same network says you can switch your ad over to a CPM model let’s do some math.
Assuming you pay a $2.00 CPM that would be $2.00 per 1000 times your ad is shown.
1000 impressions X 1% CTR = 10 clicks for $2.00 (since you are paying $2.00 per thousand views)
Now if the same ad is costing you .50 per click on the PPC campaign you would pay $5.00 for those same 10 clicks on the PPC model.
As you can see it’s all about testing. Write an ad utilize the safety that PPC offers you and then switch to CPM model if it makes sense. It’s pretty easy and once you get going it will get even easier to determine how it is done properly. This allows you to scale just about anything and everything you are doing!

I am excited to announce today that I am very close to launching my new product “30 Days To Massive Traffic”. This new course will consist of DVDs, Audio CDs, and a nice manual and should be available by the middle of October. I have put a lot of effort into this course so I am hope everyone loves it tremendously. One of the big keys for me has always been making sure my students stay motivated and take “small steps” instead of attempting to make giant leaps. I think this new course really outlines those “small steps” and how they can eventually turn into giant “calculated” leaps which is what is important.
Everyone knows making money on the internet is in fact possible. There are so many people that do it each and every day. It’s like real estate we all know it is possible to make money, but knowing where to start is sometimes the hardest thing in the world to figure out. In my new course I spent a lot of time getting into detail on how to “start off” the right way. This course offers you an entire 30 day plan that is actually repeatable.
I think it’s great and I am stoked about getting this into the hands of those that need and want it most, and that is of course my students. Ill put some information up soon to show you how to purchase the course and pre-order it to make sure you get one of the first run copies. I really believe this new course is a great way to show everyone exactly how to go from idle to moving….. and that’s exactly what we all need right?
Look for it soon!

I am sure you can all see I have now added a new category to my personal blog, affiliate marketing. The reason I did this is because so many people send me personal emails (and yes I read my own emails) asking me for advice on how to become a successful affiliate marketer. Obviously I like to share my thoughts, insight, and advice with everyone so I thought having a section on “Affiliate Marketing” was appropriate. Don’t hesitate to post a comment here asking me specific questions or for direction. I am always looking to help in any way that I possibly can with this particular industry.
The reason I choose to go into affiliate marketing is pretty easy to understand even for someone who doesn’t exactly know what affiliate marketing really is… think about it like this:
1. Wouldn’t you like to do something that DOES NOT require you to sell online?
2. Wouldn’t you like to do something that DOES NOT require you to provide customer support?
3. Wouldn’t you like to do something that DOES NOT require you to ship products, store products, or worry about competitive pricing?
Yeah of course you would and so would I, which is exactly why I choose to become an affiliate marketer. I didn’t want to have to continue selling things online for the rest of my life. I felt like my entire life was consumed with customer support, worry about my competitors prices, and then worrying about my inventory. When I found affiliate marketing it was like my “ah ha” moment you could say. Just finally something that doesn’t require all that, but still gave me the potential to earn a lot of money.
Affiliate marketing is simply just sending customer to other companies (be it large or small) and those companies will pay you a commission. The concept is actually so simple it’s almost ridiculous that everyone hasn’t heard of it or tried it out. The main pieces you need are the affiliate relationships, marketing knowledge, and a website to promote the companies. Once you have those three pieces you are set and you can almost immediately get started. I write a lot about this in my new book, Advertising Profits From Home, which you can purchase at Anthony Morrison New Book.
I think affiliate marketing is probably the easiest way for anyone to make money online. I am going to dedicate this portion of my blog to helping you uncover the secrets to being a successful internet marketer. I suggest you bookmark this page, subscribe to the RSS feed, and check back very often because I am going to be sharing some of my best kept affiliate marketing secrets with everyone who wants them very soon!
