			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-197" title="wp bootcamp ryan magin and cory shanes" src="http://secretblogtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/wp-bootcamp-ryan-magin-and-cory-shanes.jpg" alt="wp bootcamp ryan magin and cory shanes How to make Sniper Blogs" width="90" height="76" />Last week I joined an accelerated program on sniper blogging and it revolutionaized the way I see blogging. I already own 24 sites and I&#8217;m eager to own more. This guy, Ryan Magin was teaching how to create Sniper blogs. Simple blogs which have a purpose of selling one, and only one offiliate product. All my blogging income has been from consulting, and building sites for others, so this new idea is genius.</p>
<p>Ryan creates sites which sell one product, he cash flows over $2,000 a month just off of the affiliate sales. It&#8217;s pretty amazing to me.</p>
<h3>What&#8217;s a sniper blog?</h3>
<p>A sniper blog is a website focused on selling one affiliate product based on great search results. The sites are simple 3-5 pages max all pointing to one product that can be purchased.</p>
<h3>How can it make money?</h3>
<p>Sniper blogs have one purpose, and that&#8217;s to sell the product its talking about. They sell one product off of multiple banner adds and a few clever articles telling how the product will solve the readers problem.</p>
<h3>How could you learn more?</h3>
<p>I took a great course with Cory Shanes and Ryan Magin, I suggest you invest the $197 and watch their video courses. When you buy through my link, I&#8217;ll even toss in 2 free 30 minute coaching sessions to show you how and what I&#8217;ve done since them to make money.</p>
<p>Check out one of their recent tele-seminars here:</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Create yourself a customized Tag Cloud that spins and has well branded colors. Click here to find out how. ]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every great blog showcases their main tags or keywords they used in the site. This is a curious feature that helps people quickly find out the types of topics that are written about on the blog.</p>
<p>WordPress comes installed with only 2 plugins, Akismat and Hello dolly. You&#8217;ll need to search plugins for Tag Clouds. The one I recommend and is featured on this blog, and the majority of my blogs is called &#8220;WP-cumulus.&#8221;</p>
<h3>Use WP-Cumulus Plugin</h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">I love the WP-Cumulus plugin because you can really tweak it to fit your brands color, size requirements and speed of the motion. These are 3D Tags that <em>spin</em>! To find this plugin go into your WordPress Plugins section and run a serach. Search for WP Cumulus by Roy Tanck.</p>
<h3>Add Your custom information to the tag cloud</h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">You can easily adjust the width and height of this widget. You can even use exact color codes that you want.<br />
<img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-173" title="wp-cumulus" src="http://secretblogtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/wp-cumulus-300x120.png" alt="wp cumulus 300x120 Tag Clouds and How to Install them" width="300" height="120" /></p>
<h5>These 2 examples can be seen live at <a href="http://dreamosity.com" target="_blank">Dreamosity</a> and <a href="http://buildingabrandonline.com" target="_blank">Building A Brand Online</a></h5>
<h3>Find Your Customized Colors for your 3D Tag Cloud</h3>
<p>Check out this <a href="http://www.eligr.com/images/colors.gif">color code key</a> (be sure to double click to zoom) if you want to find the perfect colors to match your current color scheme.</p>
<h4>TIP &#8211; There are 3 colors you can use, only 2 are required. I personally think leveraging all 3 will be more fun for your readers.</h4>
<p>It&#8217;s a lot of fun, give it a shot. Enjoy your new tag cloud =)</p>
<p>Once you&#8217;ve added your new Tag Cloud &#8211; link me below to show it off! Thanks =)</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Have a few fan pages you manage but no way to connect it? That was my problem before I made a fan page featuring me. Check out 3 specific ways you could give your brand a fast make over. *Includes guest appearance Avram Gonzales, Cory Shanes and Amber Van Winkle.*]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="size-full wp-image-132 alignright" title="like button secret blog tips" src="http://secretblogtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/like-button.jpg" alt="like button Tips on getting likers fast" width="94" height="94" />Everyone who has a blog has hit &#8220;Like&#8221; many times by now. You can like your friend, any public figure, a website, product, band or even a concept.</p>
<p>Once you&#8217;ve identified the need for you to create your first fan page, or your 12th, there are some sneaky tricks I want to share with you.</p>
<h3>1.Leverage a webinar to drive traffic</h3>
<h4>Have a business partner do a FREE training webinar showing how to generate lots of traffic.</h4>
<p>That&#8217;s what happened to me when Cory Shanes did a free training video to promote his coaching. It was amazing to see how in 24 hours I had 50 likers for <a href="http://dreamosity.com/marcelle-allen-fan-page" target="_blank">Marcelle Allen &#8211; Internet Entrepreneur </a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-135" title="like button proof" src="http://secretblogtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/like-button-proof.png" alt="like button proof Tips on getting likers fast" width="448" height="195" /></p>
<p>Getting many people on the webinar is great &amp; when people miss the webinar, you can leverage the fact that if they help so-and-so (in this case Marcelle) get to a certain number, that the webinar will be given away for FREE. Thanks Amber &amp; everyone else for helping our cause.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-136" title="like button leverage" src="http://secretblogtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/like-button-leverage.png" alt="like button leverage Tips on getting likers fast" width="465" height="121" /></p>
<p>Now we didn&#8217;t hit the goal yet, but I know Cory has several more webinars planned this month.</p>
<h4>It&#8217;s win-win in social media land.</h4>
<p>Now, as I begin to grow my fan base, I have a place that connects people back to me. Be fore we did this new fan page, I was managing several fan pages, but no link back to me. So as you grow the # of your Facebook pages you manage, consider having one all about you.</p>
<h3>2. Sneaky ninga code to invite all facebook friends at once.</h3>
<p>My friend Avram Gonzales created this video with some secrets. <a title="Learn how to invite all your friends to an event or page" href="http://www.avramgonzales.com/confessions-and-how-to-message-your-entire-facebook-friends-list-in-seconds/" target="_blank">Visit his site  for the video and full instructions</a> it&#8217;s the second video on the page followed by 8 steps to follow.</p>
<p>This is the code for easy reference:</p>
<p>javascript:elms=document.getElementById(‘friends’).getElementsByTag Name (‘li’);for(var  fid in elms){if(typeof elms[fid] === ‘object’){fs.click(elms[fid]);}}</p>
<p>Make sure there are no spaces when you post the code. If you haven&#8217;t done it before, <a href="http://www.avramgonzales.com/confessions-and-how-to-message-your-entire-facebook-friends-list-in-seconds/" target="_blank">follow those 8 steps</a>.</p>
<h3>3. Use the best widgets &amp; plugins.</h3>
<p>If you&#8217;re using WordPress &#8211; you can add the plugin called &#8216;Facebook Like Box&#8217; and feature your new fan page (business page) on the right or left tool bar. If you don&#8217;t have a WP blog yet, you can just follow Facebooks guidelines for promoting business pages.</p>
<h4>Please click the Blue Facebook Share button and this will be posted to your page, or you can email it directly to someone who will benefit.</h4>
<p>Cheers to learning new blogging tips!</p>

Many newbies out there love the option to add pictures and videos to their blog. Here are a few simple tips.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">When you find a great video on youtube that you want to add into a wordpress post, look for the &lt;Embed&gt; and paste this into the &#8220;HTML&#8221; tab in your post.</p>
<p><span id="more-85"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://secretblogtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/How-to-embed-HTML-code-from-youtube.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-86" title="How to embed HTML code from youtube" src="http://secretblogtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/How-to-embed-HTML-code-from-youtube.jpg" alt="How to embed HTML code from youtube How to Insert Pictures in WordPress Blogs" width="471" height="153" /></a></p>
<h4 style="text-align: center;">On your left sidebar on your dashboard, look for the Media box. Click Add New<img class="size-full wp-image-91 alignleft" title="Wordpress toolbar add pictures" src="http://secretblogtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Wordpress-toolbar-add-pictures.jpg" alt="Wordpress toolbar add pictures How to Insert Pictures in WordPress Blogs" width="165" height="545" /></h4>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-92" title="pictures for SEO in wordpress" src="http://secretblogtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/pictures-for-SEO-in-wordpress.jpg" alt="pictures for SEO in wordpress How to Insert Pictures in WordPress Blogs" width="500" height="375" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">If you insert your picture and it is too big. You can click the box on the top left corner to adjust it, or delete it. I like to make them at 80-60% of biggest size.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-93" title="adjusting pictures after inserting" src="http://secretblogtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/adjusting-pictures-after-inserting.jpg" alt="adjusting pictures after inserting How to Insert Pictures in WordPress Blogs" width="445" height="406" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Once you&#8217;ve adjusted your pictures. Make sure to hit update and then save your draft. Using the preview button helps too.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Tips to remember.</p>
<h4 style="text-align: center;">1. Make sure you title your picture intelligently for SEO purposes.</h4>
<h4 style="text-align: center;">2. Your Title jpg counts for SEO too.</h4>
<h4 style="text-align: center;">3. Under link URL you can click none, or insert an affiliate link in that space.</h4>
<h4 style="text-align: center;">4. Make sure if you&#8217;re writing over your picture you use good font, this font sucks after I shrunk it.</h4>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: center;">Cheers to your great photos!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I read blogs every day&#8230; and it amazes me how many talented writers get no comments on their blog. Zip, zero, nada!</p>
<h3>Don&#8217;t be that person!</h3>
<p>You&#8217;ve got to know people have your back.</p>
<h4>What is a blog alliance?</h4>
<p>They call it a blog alliance, when a few people come together to give feedback, support, encouragement, comments, reshares, retweets, etc. The end result is social proof.</p>
<p>Now not all blog alliances are worthy of your time. Occasionally I&#8217;ll see a group starting out and they&#8217;re all in the same niche&#8230; you can&#8217;t succeed at this if you&#8217;re all writing about organic food, selling the same affiliate programs, and writing to the same hundreds of people over and over. I had a fairly good experience with TSA until they changed from google docs (if you&#8217;re reading this let me &amp; can help, let me know)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.facebook.com/#!/group.php?gid=244355361668&amp;ref=ts"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-146" title="tribe syndication alliance" src="http://secretblogtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/tribe-syndication-alliance-150x150.jpg" alt="tribe syndication alliance 150x150 Dont Go In Alone, The importance of a Blog Alliance" width="90" height="90" /></a>There are some alliances that are free, some you pay to be a part of. But just to get started, joining a monthly membership program isn&#8217;t necessary.</p>
<h4>How to find/create a blog alliance?</h4>
<p>You can ask around. I found my first 3 people simply from posting a facebook update with my request.</p>
<p>You can join <a href="http://ownyourbrandonline.com/group-coaching/#a_aid=dreamosity&amp;a_bid=b5b973aa" target="_blank">our coaching program</a> and connect with dozens of people learning to build<a href="http://buildingabrandonline.com/"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-147" title="Building a Brand Online" src="http://secretblogtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/Building-a-Brand-250x-150x150.png" alt="Building a Brand 250x 150x150 Dont Go In Alone, The importance of a Blog Alliance" width="90" height="90" /></a>their first or second blog. You&#8217;ll have a chance to have your submitted to some already deep and established traffic channels.</p>
<p>Google it with key words in your specific industry.</p>
<h4>Get really clear on what you want help with and what you can do for others</h4>
<p>Are you nervous about your first video? Get your alliance to give you feedback.</p>
<p>Do you want to get 3 tweets the first day you publish a blog, ask for that.</p>
<p>Do you want 10,000 people to see your post on facebook. Find people who will promote you and write compelling content.</p>
<p>People cannot help you if you don&#8217;t know what you want.</p>
