ReviewAZON WordPress Plugin

If you’ve looked at much of this blog you know that I absolutely love the phpBay Pro WordPress plugin. Well, there’s a new kid on the block – the ReviewAZON WordPress plugin.reviewazon_box

If you’re not yet familiar with this awesome WordPress plugin, you’ll be hearing about it soon I’m sure. ReviewAZON is for Amazon affiliates, and does basically what the phpBay Pro plugin does for eBay affiliates, plus more, much more. Of course that’s not because of any limitation of phpBay though.

The reason ReviewAZON is able to offer more is because there is so much more content that is offered by Amazon in their product feeds. Using easily customizable templates, you’re able to search for a single product, or in bulk, and have not only all of the product information published on your site, but you can also include the customer reviews, videos and more.

As soon as I purchased the ReviewAZON plugin, I set up a site on LED TVs – Best-Led-TV.com. Talk about an easy proposition, it’s as easy as doing a search from the bulk product posts menu option, selecting which products that you want on your site, and either having them post immediately or having one post immediately, and then another at regular intervals up to 24hrs apart. thereafter until all of the items are posted.

It really is that easy. As I mentioned before though, the plugin has a host of options that allow you to tweak it to your liking.

As if all of those options weren’t enough, Brad, the author of this incredible plugin, has also included the ability to add eBay listings in a sidebar using either phpBay Lite or phpBay Pro by using the included widget. You can also add Amazon Product Accessories, Amazon Similar Products, Featured Products, Brands and Price Range in a sidebar, as these are all included widgets too. Pretty slick indeed.

I really can’t say enough good things about Brad, his support and the well thought-out (and implemented) ReviewAZON WordPress plugin. Although I was one of the first group of buyers and was able to get the plugin at $59, it’s still only $79, and it is a bargain at that price. That includes the right to use it on as many sites as you want, and free updates for the life of the product.

Brad also has a user forum that he is very active in, and his support is second to none. He’s extremely quick to find a solution to the few problems that have popped up. Some required a little code tweaking, which was also taken care of very quickly.

With the power of WordPress, the ability of Amazon to convert most visitors into buyers, and this great plugin, there’s no reason not to head over to ReviewAZON.com and get a copy.

I’ve got several sites in the works, and although I’ve still got a lot of cosmetic work to do on Best-LED-TV.com, it was getting nearly 100 visitors per day just after it was published. The only things I did was to write and submit 2 articles, and add the site to to maybe 5 or 6 Social Bookmarking sites, pretty impressive. Oh, I did also add 2 articles to the site itself.

You owe it to yourself to head over to ReviewAZON.com and grab a copy of this great plugin.

Commission Blueprint – An Excellent Pay Per Click Marketing Course

If you’re just getting starting in Internet Marketing and are thinking about trying pay per click (PPC), I would suggest reconsidering. I’m only partly joking. If you have made up your mind to get started in PPC though, I would recommend reading all of the free information that you can first. Then I would definitely recommend Commission Blueprint for a single, very thorough, easy to understand, inexpensive training aid. I’ve bought several products on pay per click, and Commission Blueprint is the best that I’ve seen without a doubt.

There may be better courses/products/membership sites out there, but I can almost guarantee that you’ll be paying more for them, probably much more, and most likely getting less. I joined a membership site once and was totally dissatisfied. Although I did learn some things, after a few weeks of membership, I really felt there was really nothing worth paying for. Combine this with the fact that the owners tried to cram one upsell after another down my throat, and I really felt like it was a bad experience.

I should point out that I’m not an expert on PPC, nor am I even a successful PPC marketer. I have however, had enough experience to know that, unless you’ve really done your homework there’s a good chance you will lose some money. Actually, you’ll probably lose some money regardless, at least at first. Even after you’ve had some success there will still be campaigns that aren’t profitable, that’s just part of the game.

When I first tried my hand at PPC, I did everything wrong. After the many products that I’ve purchased, along with all the free information that I’ve found, I feel a lot more comfortable with PPC now. The primary reason I’m not running any campaigns now is because I’ve been laid off from my job. Therefore I’m sticking with either free or very inexpensive methods of generating some online revenue.

I’m not making enough online yet to be able to quit my day job, but things are getting better almost daily. I know this will be the year that I’m able to earn my living full time from home. I also know that PPC will be a major part of my strategy.

So, for a very moderately priced wealth of information on PPC, have a look at Commission Blueprint. The information provided covers nearly everything that you’ll need to know to get a good, solid foundation in pay per click marketing. There will be a few things that you’ll also want to seek more information on also.

Even though there is a lot of information on landing pages included, I would try to get a little more in-depth information also. Website building is a skill that will serve you well, not just in PPC, but especially in any SEO sites that you may have, obviously.

Of course the Commission Blueprint product is backed up by a rock solid money back guarantee, so there’s really no risk involved, but the guarantee that I can provide is that I guarantee that you won’t be seeking a refund. I still go through the many included videos regularly just to keep the information fresh in my mind.

As soon as my finances get back to normal from my layoff, I’ll be setting up some campaigns. I feel very confident with what I’ve learned from Commission Blueprint, and the great people in the forum.

Set Daily Goals and Loosen the Reins in Your Home Business

Most moms can be control freaks. That is not always a bad thing, but when you run a home business and manage your household, the stress of trying to manage every detail can be unbearable. Learn to take it easy and release the royal reins.

Let’s face it. Before you started your home business, there were days when the dishes didn’t get done because you were tired. No one complained. What has changed?

Now you have taken on new responsibilities with your business that demands your time. If you are afraid that your house will explode without your constant attention, don’t be. All you are accomplishing is increasing your anxiety level and decreasing your productivity in the home office. Who can concentrate when their mind is all over the place?

A plausible solution is to set daily goals. These goals encompass the business side and the family side. Setting goals helps maintain the balance between family and business. This will also help you be better able to relax. Here are some goal-setting tips.

  1. Know your limitations. There are no super moms – only normal moms who are super tired. Rome wasn’t built in a day and neither will your business be. Take it one step at a time. If you are working on marketing your business, use one strategy at a time and cultivate that. As you take on clients, spread out the work until you find your comfort zone and then you can add more projects. Allowing yourself the time to do good work and complete projects on time is a great feeling.

  1. Alternate business days and housework days. There will always be housework to do. For one brief shining moment, your house is clean and then the family comes home. Choose a day when you work schedule is light or take one or two mornings a week and devote them to cleaning. Even on those days, set a time frame. Do what needs to be completed during that time and leave the rest for the next cleaning day. You’re shaking your head I can tell. Before you say to yourself, “this person’s crazy” – give it a try. On the days when work is the priority, your mind will be focused on work and not the dishes.

  1. Schedule in some free time. Spending time doing absolutely nothing or working on a hobby fulfills a soulful need. Work and home are more manageable when there is time for you factored into your week. It doesn’t have to be every day, but it needs to be there for your sanity. You’ll snap if you remain wound too tightly. Take time doing something YOU like to do on a regular basis.

Each day brings a new opportunity to grow your business, enjoy your family and take time to smell the roses. A well balanced life increases overall well-being and productivity in all of your tasks, especially your home business.
