Hello darlings! To anyone that was concerned with our whereabouts the past few days, thank you. We just had an early Paddies day on Friday night, and our milk probably still tastes like Kaluha or Baileys. Anyway, we’re back in the saddle with this review. A new 136 page eBook by Stephane Grenier about how to drive traffic to your site. Certainly a topic of interest for all you pre-superstar bloggers.

We received a free copy of the ebook, and it took us a little while to get through all those pages. Pleasantly surprised that this wasn’t just another run of the mill ebook, full of scrambled bits and pieces. Stephane has actually put a lot of work in the book, making it very easy to read, simple to find what you’re looking for and packed with some serious information about driving traffic to your sites.

Why do you need Traffic to Your Website? The simplest answer is that because without traffic your website doesn’t exist!

Hopefully we don’t have to tell you guys that traffic equals money, and that this should be on your top 2 priority as a webmaster. If you’ve got no idea what to do to get traffic, randomly Digg your own stuff, ask friends for stumbles, buy reviews on JohnCow.com, than this book is for you. We consider ourselves pretty savvy, but Stephane’s book has made us look at a few of the methods descibed from a different angle. We’re not saying its all new and revolutionary, we’re saying its got everything you need to know to start increasing your traffic, drastically.

Obviously, since this isn’t a free ebook, we can’t go into detail about the contents too much, simply because you wouldn’t have to buy the book anymore. and that’s just not the way the world works kids What we can give out are some of the keywords in the books table of contents, just so you’ll get an idea of what you’re investing your money in. We say investing, because we’re certain that you will make back the money you spend on this book in no time. Its not even $30!

Besides tons of written information, Stephane has also made sure that visual examples are placed throughout the book, to make sure you know what he’s trying to teach you.

Below is the list of the traffic generation techniques this book will cover. Although this
list isn’t complete, it does include the most effective and efficient techniques.

Time Based Traffic Generation Techniques

• Search Engine Optimizations (SEO)
• Content (creating valuable content)
• Freebies
• Blogging
• Socializing
• Social Networking
• Web Directories
• Miscellaneous

Money Based Traffic Generation Techniques

• Google AdWords
• Press Releases
• Domain Acquisition

The best way we can describe the book is as the lite-version of the, now discontinued, SEOBook. Stephane absolutely knows what he’s talking about, and a lot of this is also coming from his personal experiences as a webmaster. We’ve got nothing bad to say - in fact, looks like we’re going to have to redo our own ebook in the making. The only flaw we found is on page 68. Whoever can tell us what’s wrong there first, gets $30 insta-cash via PayPal from us That means you’ll get the book for free!

Yes, Mr Shoemoney might be the proud owner of 30 iPod nanos, but we’re giving one away. Us and the good people at ads4dough dot com that is. They’ve asked us for a little review and figured they’d tie in with a contest to get you guys more excited about it. We’re just glad to see that someone seems to listen to us and took our advise
Its a very easy contest. There’s no linking back required, no posting on your blog, no adding us to your blogroll (which you should have already done anyway!) All we’d like you to do is sign up with these guys and start making money! At the end of the contest, we’ll have a look who made the most moo-lah and we’re going to award that person with the iPod. (If you’ve already got three, like us, you can pick one of the two alternative prizes - a review with us or a 125×125 banner for a month in our sidebar. Completely at your discretion).

To be honest, there’s not a whole lot we can review, simply because it looks like the boys haven’t really got that big a website. Sure you guys won’t mind since you don’t have to read as much of our usual bullshit and we can get right down to the point - winning that ipod nano.

Look familiar? We thought so too. Apparently these are the mugshots of the three people that are running the place; Hank, Homer and Peter, also known as Rick, Ryan and Rob. Kind of refreshing to see that some companies try to have a little fun while they’re making dough online.

A little introduction of our kind sponsors:

Welcome to Ads4dough, “A leader in affiliate marketing on the internet.” As a top affiliate marketing company based out of New York, we pride ourselves on bringing you the best offers on the internet. Ads4dough offers some of the best payouts with lightning fast commission payments. We have some of the highest trained affiliate managers in the business.

A list of the benefits of joining up for free:

As you know, or should know, there’s people out there that are waaay more experienced in the affiliate marketing business than us, like Zac Johnson. He’s given ads4dough a great review, and we recommend you to read up what this super affiliate had to say about them. We’re basically in it so we could give you boys and girls an ipod

Something in which ads4dough dot com is standing out for in a very busy affiliate marketing segment - You will earn 4% of lifetime commission for each affiliate that signs up under your link. That’s the regular market value doubled. Others like Azoogle just pay 2%.

One more thing. Ryan asked me to put everyone at ease about the current design they have. A new and more professional look will be put in place very shortly. He’s aware that they’re currently lacking in that department and they are working hard to change this. As its only a new company, with a staff of three, we understand. We’re certain that they will turn it into something good, since they have shown their dedication to making this work by reaching deep into their pockets, buying reviews on the bigger blogs and giving away ipods.

Sign up right now and start making money so we can send you that ipod!

PS We’re announcing the winners for the $500 free coding tomorrow. Stay tuned, all 5 of you that entered…

A certain self-proclaimed “Social Millionaire” pinged us and asked for a review of, what could be, the next big million dollar idea. Just when we thought nobody could come up with yet another Million Dollar Idea, 19 y/o Entrepreneur Pat Hankinson surprised us with the refreshing angle he’s using to become a dot com Moo-gul. No pixel sales and no wiki pages this time. Its old-fashioned keywords, mixed with some new-wave social media that should do the trick according to Pat.

Unfortunately, it’s not very clear what exactly Pat is going to do to get the whole social media scene involved. Our best guess is that he’ll have a master plan to start driving social traffic to his site, exposing the advertisers that bought a keyword. The interesting thing is that the keywords range from $1 to however much money you’d like to spend on one. The more you pay, the more visibility you’ll get. Having just started out, there’s not a whole lot of competition going on yet, but this could quickly change, seeing Pat has started to invest in sponsored reviews around the net. Here’s another one we found, which might have some additional info for you if you’re interested in getting on board for a few dollars.

We’ve grabbed two spots for ourselves, extra kudos to whomever can guess which ones we got

Will the social network angle work? It’s hard to tell because nothing is as unpredictable as the social network users. If Pat has some sort of system in place, where he can actually drive mad social network traffic towards his site, it just might be a good investment. For a few bucks, you can’t really go wrong anyway. The fact that he’s already dishing out dineros for reviews tells us Pat is serious about making this work. We get a warm and fuzzy feeling from passionate people like that, and hopefully his passion will make us more money. The two keywords we bought are directed to, you might have guessed it, sites that make convert traffic into money. You could put up your affiliate links, or promote you own product.

If you decide to take the plunge and become part of what might be the next big thing, make sure you check out where Pat hangs out and become his friend on either Facebook, Myspace, Youtube, Orkut, Stickcam or Bebo. Surely you don’t want to be the person that didn’t become friends with the Social Millionaire. When, and not if, he goes viral and becomes another Internet superstar, you’ll be kicking yourself for missing out on a great networking opportunity!

The PepperJamNetwork asked us for a review (yes sorry kids, another review ) about their affiliate operation. Having spoken to their CEO ,Kris Jones, a few times, we were quite excited with this opportunity to dive into what some big bloggers have already called;”The Evolution of Affiliate Marketing”.

With so many established affiliate networks, jumping on the PepperJamNetwork bandwagon right now might be something you’d like to consider. Being new and thus with a relative low userbase, chances are, you won’t be facing as much ‘competition’ as you would on the aged affiliate networks.

Just a little introduction before we specifically have a look at what’s interesting for us bloggers.

Pepperjam is the industry’s leading full-service internet marketing agency, assisting businesses launch and optimize three
of the most important revenue channels for today’s e-commerce companies,
search-engine marketing, affiliate marketing, and media planning and management.

Right, so the whole PepperJam operation does much, much more than just affiliate marketing with their PepperJamAds. To us, it pretty much looks like a one-stop-shop for all your online marketing needs.

Making money with your blog, one word comes to mind - advertising. As you can see, we have implemented the familiar Google Adsense look and feel banners which PepperJamADS supplies, into this blog. They are not contextual and they don’t pay per thousand impressions, but even if you generate just 1 lead per day for any of their products, you’re more than likely blowing below average adsense earnings out of the water. Besides that, you have full control of what you would like to show. We don’t run any contextual ads, simply because all we get to see are dairy ads!

Since we just implemented this online advertising solution, and our pepperjam stats page is pretty much empty, we took the liberty of grabbing this screen shot from our friendly neighborhood super affiliate. As you can see, a snazzy page with pretty stats. The whole setup you get as a user is very detailed and you can look back into all sorts of reports to see how your campaigns are going and where you might want to tweak things. Something else we really liked was the simplicity of the way the whole navigation is set up. You might know what a pain in the neck a site like CommissionJunction is, just to get your publisher campaign setup just takes too much time. And we all know time is money. PepperJamNetwork’s website is setup so that you can have a new campaign running in literally minutes. Loads of their clients are set to have you auto-join their programs, instead of having to wait hours or even days to get accepted. Speaking of speed of service, these guys have even integrated a chat function, where you can talk directly to their clients - the owners of their respective affiliate program. Meep Meep!

We seriously don’t have anything to rant about - how could we? have a look at the big names that recognize PepperJam.com as an authority! They have raised the bar and set an example for all the other affiliate networks out there. It is possible to have a user friendly, interactive and highly rewarding network, that works wonders for both publisher and advertisers. We’ll be keeping a close eye on our progress these next few weeks just to see how well PepperJamAds will work for a blog like this.

A new and improved monetization machine will be proudly presented to the public today - Happar M.E. You might have seen the youtube clip we posted a few days ago, wondering what on earth it was all about. Well to explain this to you boys and girls, the people of Happar.com have kindly requested us to have a closer look at their money making product and publish our findings, so here goes.

We received a lot of research material and most of the screen shots speak for themselves.

These stats are taken from a new website - set up late December ‘07 - and the numbers are very impressive, seeing these numbers have mainly been generated by organic search engine traffic. Almost 10,000 daily impressions, and this domain now has 36,000 pages indexed in Google (!)





Easy Installation - check.


Happar is indeed extremely simple to install. According to one of the testimonials, a user only has to upload the unzipped contents, next, next, next, and they’re finished. Even installing WordPress is slightly more difficult. The ‘real work’ is all in the customization of your end product - it all depends on what you would like to do with the tool, and how much time you’ll spend in tweaking your site.

One of Happar’s main features is the Highly Customizable Search Engine. Visitors can use the search engine on the site and depending on your personal set-up, it will grab content and create new pages on the fly for the visitors. This way you’re not only providing your traffic with content, you’re also growing your site’s database with new pages, ready to get indexed by Google. The more people use your happar created site, the more organic traffic you will receive. A nifty option that the tool offers is to translate your content into 14 different languages. It might not sound very exciting, but if you consider that not everyone online can read English, and only use their native language to look for things, its a whole new segment of new users that you will reach with the translation capacity of the script.

Besides growing your site with the help of your visitors, happar also allows you to manually add your own articles. This might be a safer way to get Google to like you. There’s nothing better than unique content.

Another excellent functionality of the tool is a WYSIWYG editor to shape your site the way you like it. Colors, ad placement, flickR images, youtube video clips etc. All of these can be modified to your taste and you don’t have to know one bit of HTML for it.

Making Money - check

Obviously you can start generating money with Adsense, ClickBank or whatever your favorite online earners are. Feed the code into the tool and it’ll integrate this with your site. If that’s not enough for you, Happar offers a very lucrative affiliate program for all its members. We took a quote from their faq:

• High Payouts: The Happar Affiliate Program commission will give you $90 per sale and $70 per membership.
• Second Tier! You can make additional income by attracting new participants to our program. Advertise the Happar M.E Affiliate Program and make $20 per sale and membership from the income of every new partner you bring us!
• Be with Happar - Be with the Leader! Happar is the world’s first monetization engine. We strive to release the best scripts on the market.
• All Possible Types of Banners Ads: We provide our partners with the best tools to help them advertise M.E.
• Fast and Efficient Member Support: We have special staff devoted to working with the Happar Affiliate Program. With us you are not simply another associate, you are part of our Team. Together we work for excellence, to keep you and your customers satisfied, happy and of course, successful. If you decide, we will work closely with you on a personal basis, for our mutual benefit. All your requests are processed by our administrator within 24 hours.

As you can see, the possibilities are endless with a money making tool like happar. What it comes down to is your determination and input to make this work for you. We all know there’s no such thing as getting rich quick online, everything takes work. This script will do a lot of work for you, saving you precious time for other endeavors. The trick is to find the right balance between your unique and scraped content, so you don’t get into any sort of trouble with the big G. Most of us money making webmasters are always cautious not to cross that line. The Happar M.E tool is extremely versatile and how it works out for you depends completely on how you put it to work.
