Meet Me at Asia Speaker Summit in Singapore!

I was watching a movie earlier on TV. It is
entitled "Asteroid: The Sky is Falling..."

It is about an asteroid hitting the earth
while nobody in the world can do anything
to save the world after the American government
plan fail to destroy the Asteroid!

Despite the film violating almost every physical
law, I like about the film on two aspects.

1) The main character, Dr. Lily McKee starring
Annabella Sciorra had always wanted to follow
his dad footstep to become a medical doctor, but
ended up becoming an Astronomer. When she failed
to destroy a plummeting asteroid menaces the earth,
she was encouraged by her dad saying...
"Being a medical doctor, I save lives, but today
you have saved more lives than anybody else on earth!"

It suddenly striked me that you do not need to
be a medical doctor to save lives!

Since little my dad wanted me to become a medical
doctor for that reason, but I ended up becoming
an engineering doctor. The "worst" thing is
I turned out be a marketer selling information
online!

However, I know I save lives too. I have consulting
clients whom I help to increase their bottom line
results. To me, their businesses are like my businesses.
As I know if they fail, there maybe serious consequence
to their family like divorce, committing suicide and
stuff like that.

Thus, I want to ask you, being a marketer yourself, do
you save lives? Yes, you do, and in fact you can save
a lot of lives, but just not in the same way as the medical
doctors!

2) Another main character in the movie, Jack Wallach
starring Michael Biehn approached a female doctor who
was frustrated that she could not help as many people
as she wanted to. Jack said to her, "You cannot help
everybody, but you can try your best to help one person
at a time!"

Is that not the same for us as a marketer? There are
so many things we could do to improve our marketing
strategies and businesses, and I bet you could do
a million things now to make yourself and your clients
money, but it is important to know that we should try
our best to take things a step at a time! As long as you
can profit from one of your actions today, you will be
able to take another step tomorrow.

Yes, you are absolutely right that we all have our
social responsibilities!

It is the same for me, if I can help you in any way I would.

I was invited to speak at Asia Speaker Summit 2007 sharing the
stage with some of the most dynamic business speakers around the
world. Check it out at (not affiliate link) -

A week after that, I was invited as a distinguished guest to attend the
National Achiever Congress featuring Mark Victor Hansen, T Have Eker,
Stephen Pierce, Roger Hamilton, Jerry Clark et al. They will be told
about me! Wow!

Again, if you are around, please do get in touch.

want me to ask and ...

Surfing Directory?!

The first step for me when building a good directory site is to make sure the directory is SEO friendly. This will attract a lot of clients wanting to be on your directory sites. Thus, you will never get worried that there is not enough clients. I am not going to discuss how I built my directory because it took efforts to sort it out. However, please refer to this site. It is awesome, and you can include some adsense ads as well.

It is vital that you include adsense on your site, because that is a way for you to moneytise the site! :)

Multiple Site Building for Google Adsense Revenue - Part 1

If you are the webmaster of your own site you should consider building more. It simply makes sense to have more than one website, provided you are making money on the first. There are many ways to earn money with your own website, Google Adsense being one of them. With that affiliation alone, on all of you websites, traffic will increase and so will your income. Many sites + many pages + many pages indexed by Google = Money

As there are quite a lot to cover, I am going to divide this article into three parts and I am going to share with you about creating multiple quality sites fast in Part 1 of this article.

One of the most commonly asked questions when talking about creating multiple sites is

"How can I manage more than one site?"

Due to the advancement of software technology, this can be achieved easily. One would use a tool called ‘site builder'. Site Builder is basically a website editing tool. It is just like the Microsoft Words. The only difference is that Microsoft Words is used to edit documents while site builder is used to create websites. Examples of site builders are like DreamWeaver, Microsoft FrontPage and so on.

One of the pitfalls of site builders is cost. For example DreamWeaver costs at least $300. In addition, site-builder software can be overwhelming too if you are unfamiliar with them. Although they are ‘what you see is what you get" software, you still need to know a bit of html coding. Due to this, many people actually hire other people to put websites together for them. That might be alright for the ‘big guy' corporations that can truly afford that type of service, which can get expensive as specialists will charge a great deal. For the ‘small guy' business, however, a more practical tool that fits a tighter budget is appropriate.

Many websites like homestead.com, yahoo.com, web.com, build-a-business-website.com, and many more offer low monthly fees for building your own websites. Shop around and find one that fits your budget and start building. These websites offer tools that are extremely user friendly, and you have some flexibility to personalize your pages and add Google Adsense. The only disadvantage is that you are provided with templates which other people maybe using too. If that is not an issue for you, then, by all means for their services unless you want the hassle of playing with DreamWeaver or FrontPage.

Another tool to use is Page Generation software. What is page Generation software? It is basically a tool that creates multiple pages for your website(s) with just a click of a button. It is called by Google "One Click Button Publishing" system. When such tool was first released, it was a good news for a lot of people. With such tool, one can easily build multiple sites with thousands of pages within a few minutes and have them indexed by Google within a few hours! However, as the tool was so easy to use, the spammers saw the golden opportunity and started to spam the web with the tool. The infamous one was the Traffic Equalizer software which scraps the search engine results left right and center!

Due to the serious abuse of such a tool, Google in the end banned almost all the sites that were created using Traffic Equalizer software.

However, that does not mean all such tools are bad. There are some good ones out there transform your private label articles or resell-right ebooks into valuable informational websites for visitors. These are not scraped results from the search engines. One coming to mind is Website Article Wizard, which can be found at http://www.websitearticleswizard.com.

This is a tool that transforms whatever articles, which you own the rights to publish, into good looking websites. You could embed your affiliate links like Amazon's into each of the articles. If your visitors find the articles interesting and want to find out more, they will click the link leading them to any related book that one can buy from Amazon. You make the commission, when the book is finally purchased!

I have given you some idea on how to quickly build multiple quality sites fast, and I am going to share with you about writing contents for your site in Part 2.

Internet - Choosing Keywords Correctly

By now you have likely heard that keywords and keyword phrases, are extremely important in having search engines display your website. So how do you choose them' Guess' Ask a friend' Check successful competitors sites' There is a better way!

First let's digress. There are a lot of things that affect your ranking in search engines and ultimately how many sales you make from you website. The quality of the (and amount of)content on your site, how many links point to your site, what keywords are used, how they are used, even the age of your site can play a factor. Large companies spend thousands on getting their companies to the top of the rankings and keeping them there. If you're a small company trying to compete with these large budgets, you are likely to come up short.

Have you 'read' others' whinge?

I have been onto WhigeIt.com site reading others' whinge. It was hillarious. Some of them are so petty and so true. Reading others whinge, make you realise that you are not alone, and sometimes, it even make you see life from a different angle!

Life is so short. Why do we spend so much times worrying about things happened in the past and things that you think are going to happen in the future?

Yes, I agree that we all need to whinge in certain extend. Fair enough, some people does not like to use the term "whinge", but whatever term you use, it means to let things off your chest. I think it will make you a happier person.

No worry, if nobody wants to listen to you, then go to WhingeIt.com.
