Welcome to another issue of the "Your Journey
to Freedom" newsletter.

Well were back from holidays and ready to go flat out
again. This was the first holiday that we've had since
starting my online business, and boy did we enjoy it!

We spent 10 wonderful days at the Gold Coast in the sunny
state of Queensland where it's beautiful one day, perfect
the next. Hey I know that's an old cliché, but this place
really is God's country.

Mind you, while we were supposed to relax, all we did was
follow the kids from one theme park to the next. But all-in-
all, we had an absolute ball and in between all the running
around we were able to recharge the old batteries.

I had promised to place some holiday pics on the website
for you to have a gander at when I got back from holidays,
but there has been a slight delay and hopefully they will
be ready next week. Sorry!

Ok, back to business.

If you remember, last issue we talked about how to drive
traffic to your website using fre.e advertising. this
week we continue to focus on this very important aspect of
promoting your business with Part 2 of "The FRE.E
Advertising Trap!"

By the way, if you missed the last issue you can read it

And don't forget, if you have something to say or have
some useful tips you'd like to share with others, email us

Cheers

"The FREE Advertising Trap!" (Part 2)
By Bryan Winters

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dave's Note -

This is the final part to an article written by Bryan
Winters about how to drive targeted free traffic to your
website to promote your website.

There ARE fr.ee advertising strategies that work, and work
EXTREMELY well.

But first, in considering these methods, it is VITAL that
you understand this: Fr.ee traffic techniques generally
require more work and time than paid advertising. Further,
there is a learning curve to each of these techniques.

Now for the final three items on the list of FR.EE
advertising that WORKS, as long as you're willing to put
forth the time and effort. But should you feel you need
more, you can always add another technique to your
"arsenal".
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4. Traditional search engine listings. Listing with most
of the major search engines if fr.ee. However, this is the
most complex of the free advertising techniques I've listed.

Though once you know the secrets it's not difficult. You need
to work on learning to optimize your site for the various search
engines. Right now, several major factors to high search
engine listings are as follows:

-Get a domain name that includes your keywords (keywords
being what most people would typically search on to find
whatever it is you're offering).

For example, if your keyword/phrase is golfing equipment,
your domain might be www.cheap-golfing-equipment.com.

-Place links throughout your site that include your
keywords. These could be links to other pages on your site,
or outside web-sites.

-Conduct link exchanges with other relevant, quality web-
sites (web-sites related to yours, with similar keywords).
The more sites that link to yours, the better.

-Include as much keyword rich CONTENT (articles,
tutorials, descriptions, etc.) on your site as possible.

Fortunately there is a TON of fr.ee information on how to
get good search engine rankings, so you can easily develop
your expertise in this area without breaking the bank - or
even spending a dime.

Here is one such resource:
http://www.internet-advertising-marketing-manual.com/google-dance.htm

The above is a fairly thorough tutorial on how to rank
well with Google.com, the webs most popular search engine
by far!

5. Yet another great fr.ee advertising technique is
writing quality articles related to your topic of business,
and submitting them to ezine publishers (with relevant
publications).

It's a simple exchange. The publisher gets a great article
to send to their subscribers. In return they publish your
article AS IS, including your resource box which should
immediately follow your article.

You can also submit these articles to places like
ezinearticles.com, and gain even more exposure at zero cost
to you.

Almost ANYbody can write sufficient articles for this
purpose (you remember writing reports in school don't
you?... well this is no different!).

Ezine publishers are always looking for great content, so
give it to them, and reap the rewards!

6. Free publicity. This fr.ee advertising technique has
more potential than all others above combined.

It involves submitting news worthy articles and
information to applicable media outlets: magazines,
newspapers, TV stations, radio stations...

Much of the media content you absorb every day originated
from people promoting their own businesses and causes.
Media outlets such as the above are constantly looking for
news. Why not let it be YOU that provides it to them. You
can submit a single article to hundreds of sources.

People have made MILLIONS while spending "zilch" on
advertising using this method.

The best advice I can give you in this limited space is to
"copycat" the style of writing you see in the publications
you submit your articles to. And of course, engage in
further study of how to receive free publicity through the
many fr.ee resources searchable online.

--------------------------------------------

So there you have it, six fr.ee traffic methods PROVEN to
work.

By combining two of the techniques above (an affiliate
program and JV's), I've built a hugely successful site
(pushbuttonleads.com) and have YET to spend a single dime
on advertising!

...Search www.pushbuttonleads.com on Alexa.com, and you'll
find that the site is listed well under 10,000 out of
MILLIONS of web-sites online. In terms of traffic and
popularity this means my site is in the top 99.9% of all
sites! And again, I accomplished this while spending
absolutely nothing on advertising or promotion.

Using one or more of the proven techniques above I
guarantee you can build your own web-site, or your
affiliate and MLM programs into huge, thriving
successes without spending a dime - just like I've done!

Again, all it takes is the desire, and the will to put
forth the effort.

Fr.ee advertising inherently takes more time than paid
advertising (although this is not ALWAYS the case).

To succeed online, you HAVE to make an investment. There
is no way around it. No magic pill. No secret, largely
undiscovered traffic exchange or classified ad site that
sends you hordes of quality traffic with the push of a
button. There is no such thing, nor will there ever be.

Success requires an investment in TIME, MONEY, or both.

If you've got little time to spare on promoting your
online business ventures using the techniques above, your
only other options are MAKING time, finding somebody else
to advertise for you, or of course using PAID advertising.

Traffic is one of the MAJOR keys to success online. You
cannot succeed without it, no matter how good your product,
no matter how good your ad presentation.

And now, at last, you know how to get MORE traffic than
you will ever need, without spending a dime, as well as how
to avoid the "fr.ee traffic" pitfalls which have plagued
and discouraged so many.

Here for Your Success

>>>>>>>>>>>>> Tip Time <<<<<<<<<<<<<
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

This weeks tip is brought to you by the Newbie Club
http://newbieclub.com/?bizinfo

Is Your Computer Freezing?

Using standby mode, is supposed to save energy when your
PC is unattended, and help your Monitor last longer. In
other words it switches over to using a screen saver if
left unattended for a while.

However, this facility can cause problems, because
sometimes when you try to bring back your 'normal' screen
you find your PC is frozen. No mouse, no alt/ctrl/delete
function ...

Zilch!

Then you have to switch off your computer (even that
doesn't work sometimes), reboot and run scan disk, just to
get back to where you were before you took time off for
that cup of coffee.

If this has happened to you, the answer is to disable the
standby mode. Here's how ...

RIGHT Click on a blank area of your desktop.

LEFT Click on

Properties

Screen saver

Settings (or Power)

Check everything in there to 'Never'.

Click OK and OK again.

Job done.

Now you can have a cup of coffee with peace of mind:-)

Tip Time is a section where each week we will provide a
useful tip that will help you save time in your busine.ss
or in your everyday life. If you have any useful tips that
