Might even been in July as we are packing more and more tasty morsels into this thing!

We are putting the course together now. We are planning on releasing it at the end of June.

Great show! You keep telling us about some big course you are putting together can you tell us when it will be released and in what format?

Thanks

We do need to add a recommended reading list to it as well… Coming soon!

Google does not show all your backlinks, just a selection of them. This is so people cannot just go and copy the links linking to a high ranking site.

Unfortunately we don’t have the time to do site critiques right now. But I took a quick look. If you search in Google to see how many inbound links you have, there are zero (as of the writing of this comment). If you want page rank and search engine traffic, then you need to get links back to your site. The best think you can do now is to build links to your site.

Best of luck.

My issue today is JeffsList.net. I started gathering content for this site
in ’94 with the first e-mail joke I received. I’m a collector and gathered
what I consider the best of the net funnies, some commentary, random
thoughts, pop culture, strange stuff & some snap shots too.

I designed and posted the site in ’05 to catalog this content in an
attractive, functional way, a Net Library of laughs, a sort of p2p user
driven model. So here I am, this is some good, funny and thoughtful stuff,
gathered for all to enjoy, that no one is seeing!

I have tried to design the site to be easy, no registration required to see
full content and anonymous posting option, all free. . . All good, but… I
need some page rank, traffic & advertisers!!!! My business model is based
on advertising but the banner ads sowing now are for my other business and
some friends. I have considered creating a shopping directory based on
affiliate links, develop some aspect of social networking on the site (post
comments, blog, contact a poster type ideas) which will come, for now I need
traffic, buzz, happy visitors, advertisers. Any ideas? Feel free to use
the site as a teaching example and don’t be shy with constructive criticism,
I just want to share some laughs, a lil serious stuff and get my
info-preneur business going. Hope you get a laugh from the site and thanks
again for the support and great programing.

Cheers!

We have definitely been remiss in not putting the link to the tools and recommended resources on the front page. I’ll add it now. We’re currently going through a site redesign and have a lot of things we’d like to add.

The time management book that I mentioned on the show is Getting Things Done. It’s a must read.

One thing I would recommend is easier access to your recommended products. I am always away from my computer when listening to a podcast, at the gymn or wherever and forget the link. When I visit this site I cannot find a link to your affiliate links. Could you put a category of recommended products with a link to your pages. eg your recommended email list etc.

Actually what brought me here today was your mention about time management a couple of weeks back. Can you send me the link to the book your recommend?

Many Thanks

That’s a great question. There are no issues with duplicate content. We use a type of redirect that tells the search engines that the permanent location of the content is the site being forwarded to (the hyphenated URL). As far as the search engine is concerned, the content only exists in one place. I haven’t discovered any downsides to using this method yet.

Firstly I’d like to thank you for your inspirational podcast. The tools you selflessly provide and confidence that you exude has helped me immensely in my own life and both personal and business, to the point where this year I have given up my daytime job to work full-time on what I love.

I have a quick question regarding a past podcast. I am about to launch a new site and I remember you mentioned the use of hyphenated domains for SEO.

My question is : Do you have any issues with duplicate content within search engines or is this set up in a way that a search engine will only ever see the hyphenated site, whilst listeners like myself can simply type in internetbusinessmastery.com? Do you think that there are any disadvantages to the method you use?

Looking forward to the next episode,

I don’t have any experience yet with Google checkout. Soon we will have a way to tap the collective wisdom of the Internet Business Mastery community to get feedback on it. For now, I can’t direct you either way.

As for GothamCast, it may yet return for another “season”. Stay tuned.

Now for the questions….

I have created an ebook, posted it on ClickBank (official launch was Sunday night). Using Google AdWords for traffic (while building some content for organic searches). Google Analytics are killer, I can tell where people are coming from, CPC for keywords, yada yada…… I am getting decent traffic for my first week. I can tell what is bringing ppl in but since I can’t add code to the ClickBank interface I don’t know where I am looking ppl. Non internet marketing friends say they don’t like/trust the Clickbank site.

1) If I used Google I could track where I lose people thru the whole process, and Google is a very recognized name.
***Do you have any experience with it? Do you recommend it?

Your words of wisdom have saved me alot of time and kept me going even when is it 1:36 in the morning.

Keep up all of the great work guys!. I will be listening.

P.S. (Jay I even found your GothamCast! sorry to see it go)
