… And GREAT guitars!

I love tuning in to the Thirty Day Challenge TV live streaming shows. Ed Dale, Dan Raine, Robert Somerville give the most up to date Internet Marketing information and they deliver it in an entertaining way. They also have some very experienced Internet Marketers moderating and also some very loyal 30DC and Immediate Edge alumni that offer their experience to help out all of the people that are trying out Internet Marketing for the first time.

Almost everyday of the Challenge this year… Ed, Dan and the gang, have hosted a live streaming event on Thirty Day Challenge TV to talk about that days challenge homework. They then open up the lines for a Q&A where you can ask them anything about the Thirty Day Challenge. Ed likes to pull out one of his many beautiful Vintage electric guitars and play while he answers them. He has quite a few brands in his collection but my favorites are the Gibson’s. Gibson Rules! .

I think this is SO VERY important to anyone who is just starting out in Internet Marketing… you get to ask some of the greatest minds in IM questions and they go out of their way to try and answer every one of those questions.

Just think about it for a moment… how much does it cost normally for some consultation from Internet Marketers such as Ed and Dan? I would guess at least a $1,000/hour. Well, you get questions answered by these guys for FREE during the show.

So if you are new to Internet Marketing or you are struggling to make money in IM, check out the the Thirty Day Challenge for some amazing information and techniques to teach you how to do proper market research and get high Google rankings. Once you are more experienced, make sure you check out Ed and Dan’s monthly membership called Immediate Edge, where you can take your business to the next level.

Been very busy lately doing research and creating content for a new niche I’m going into. Now I know that’s no excuse but that is why I have not made a blog post in a while. Ya ya, I know I said I would make a point of making blog posts on a regular basis, but usually when I think of doing it, it’s getting late and I want to get some sleep. Anyway, I think I’ll add it to my calender to make a post at least once a week. I wouldn’t hold my breath though .

Well, the Thirty Day Challenge was a success and I made my $10. Mind you, I didn’t reach the goal until 6 days after but the bottom line is that I did make the $10 and it cost me absolutely nothing to get it.

It was a very pleasant surprise to get the first sale. I honestly didn’t think that I would receive it because I haven’t been getting much traffic to my content. The keyword phrase that I chose was also discovered by about 4 other Thirty Day Challengers as well so there was a lot of Web 2.0 competition.

Since I haven’t been getting much traffic to my sites, I decided to do research for a new niche. The main goal after you find a keyword phrase that has a good number of searches per day and that has a low amount of competing Google pages is to get traffic to your sites. At least 200 visitors a day is needed. Since I wasn’t getting this with my old niche I decided to start over again. Who knows, I may go back to the old niche sometime down the road.

The Thirty Day Challenge was a great experience and I learned a lot about how to use Web 2.0 to get quick results in Google. The Challenge forum is still active and Ed will be adding new info to the site every few weeks or so.

I also got to know a bunch of great Internet Marketers and even exchanged a few emails with these amazing people. These people are very good at what they do and they want to give some of this information back to help others to be successful too. I am lucky to have been able to learn from them and I would like to thank them. So a big thank you goes to Ed Dale, Dan Raine, Nicolas Messe, Andrew “Nez” Nesbitt, Caro McCourtie, Lisa Hartwell and all my team members.

I slapped up my entry for the Thirty Day Challenge YouTube Festival on Sunday. I actually finished it on Friday but didn’t put it on YouTube until Sunday because I was trying to build my courage up.

The point of my video was to promote the 30 Day Challenge but do it a little different than the other entries that I saw.

So I got out my old trusty fake teeth… my Philadelphia Flyers hat… and tried to use a wacky accent (I’m a country boy, so it wasn’t that much of a stretch).

Well, I made quite an ass out of myself!

Oh well, it was great fun to do and I think that the 30 Day Challenge is going to be great…so what the heck!

Anyway, check it out and watch me act like a fool.
