If You Don't have a Web site, and want one....

     If you WANT to construct a Web site yourself... the only major investment you should make is a licensed copy of Microsoft's "Front Page™".... which is easy to use (this site and all my other Web sites were done entirely with Front Page™).

If you want your own Web site, but don't want to write it from scratch - it is easy to do.

Get Your own Web site from your own Web hosting Business

     If you want a Web site, or would like to make money promoting Web hosting services, then check out these inexpensive hosting plans, and / or become an affiliate:

Free Web Sites

     This Web site is "free" - I used hosting credits from my account after purchasing the Domain Name. Many of the affiliate programs will provide you with your own affiliate page or affiliate link that goes to their Web site, and all you have to do is get people to click on your affiliate link - either in an e-Mail or on your own Web site, and they take care of the sales pitch, sale, shipping of the merchandise, collection of funds and payout of your commissions.

     If you have your own Web site that you want to use in an affiliate campaign, that is a good idea. Make sure the site is a DOMAIN-NAME site, and NEVER use non-domain ("free") sites to do ANYTHING - they are a waste of time, and are good for only ONE thing... each non-domain ("free") site you have will (maybe) count as an "incoming link" if you reciprocally link it to your domain-name site AND if the site AND your Domain-Name site are registered with the search engines.

Cloak your affiliate links

     If you plan on using e-Mail or a Web site to promote your affiliate sites, don't forget to to cloak & shorten all your affiliate links. You will note I have done this with most of the links on this site. This prevents someone from stealing your commissions. Once a visitor clicks on the cloaked link - your affiliate ID may still be displayed in the URL window, but cookies will have been set on the user's PC, and the IP address of the visitor recorded by the service's Web site, so that your affiliate ID is credited with the referral.

    A great Web site is good....

You put a lot of time, energy, talent, creativity into building a Web site.

You carefully laid out your page to be appealing to the reader,

You chose your keywords and metatags with painstaking research,

But it's all for naught because someone - anyone - can just go: File, Save As (webpage complete htm, html)

Change a few things and use it as their own.

Bummer.

That is, UNLESS you...

Protect your Web site pages

     We use this excellent utility to protect THIS Web site and several others we run against piracy, and tinkering with our affiliate links (try copying, viewing HTML, highlighting, saving to disk, or saving / copying our graphics). You will get gobbledegook under a copyright notice, and we have encrypted and restricted these pages so that they will ONLY run if uploaded to this domain-name site. All of these options are included functions of this short little utility....

     I must caution you to not over-do your link cloaking or page protections. Cloak ONLY the links or pages that contain your affiliate links. The reason for this is that you want the search engines to be able to read your page. If the entire page is encrypted; i.e. if you can't trad the HTML code with your browser's view source option, neither can the search engines.

    A great Web site is good....

But it is useless as a lit fart in a wool mitten if the search engines don't know it is there.
And if the search engines don't know it is there....

Soon, even YOU will forget where it is!

The Hottest Marketing Idea in Internet History !!

This has got to be one of the hottest ideas I've ever seen in my long experience with the Internet. With the advent of TiVo, DVRs, and increasing entertainment content on the Internet, companies that advertise on TV are suffering from diminishing returns on their advertising budget. Many of these companies are turning to the Internet for the solution, and this is a great opportunity for anyone who owns a Web site that enjoys any sort of traffic (and you WILL get traffic if you ).

     Let me explain briefly, and if you are a Web site owner and are interested, just click the link below, and sign up (FREE).

Each time an audio ad is sent from your Web site, you get paid. If you have a Web site with a lot of "hits".... well, you get the idea.

AutoSurf Hits for your  Web Site

     Now I know I said that you don't NEED a Web site to do any of the stuff I outlined on the . THIS topic is for those of you who have a Web site, and are looking for a way to get "hits" to it. Besides intelligent use of keywords, meta-tags, and relevant content, your Web site needs reciprocal links AND page views in order to get listed high-up in the search engines. With so many people competing for Alexa ratings these days, I have found a way to get MEGA-Hits to my Web sites free of cost (no crap). All you need is to get a browser that you can use for your own purposes, and that can run "autosurf" in a tab, hidden from view, behind the scenes, where you will hardly notice it (unless you're on a dial-up line).

     Because you have read this far, I'm going to let you in on the best "secret" for getting Web site hits - and I'm going to show you not only how to do it FREE, but how to have your COMPUTER do it FOR you... all you have to do is go get some free software - . Download and install it, and then set it up any way you want to (including custom "skins").

Make the following settings to the browser:

Click TOOLS / MAXTHON SETUP CENTER

Click on "Tabs Bar"

Check the box "Force all Links to be opened in New Tabs"

The browser is now set to open each page under a new tab. A separate tab is where you will run the Autosurfer, while you use the browser to surf the net - or do whatever. Optionally, you can minimize the browser and use ANOTHER browser to do other things.

Click TOOLS / ADHUNTER

Check the box to enable the Popup Blocker.

Leave all the other options OFF (unchecked)

The browser is now set up to block those annoying popup ads that ruin the surfing experience. You can now autosurf with as many autosurf programs as you want. This is best done when you are NOT using the machine - let it run unattended, and you'll wake up to CRAZY HIT CREDITS ()

     Autosurfers "hit" other sites, and in exchange, your site will be displayed in the rotation. You MAY get MAD sales from the "hits", and you may not - but what we are after here are JUST the "hits", which IN ITSELF, increases the ALEXA rating of the site.... sales from those "hits" are gravy on the potatoes.

Now.... get to ALL of the following sites:

     NOTE: If any of the above links takes you to an error page or you get the message "Navigation to the webpage was canceled", not to worry. These sites pass tremendous amounts of traffic and are often taken offline for maintenance, or because their server is getting hammered with traffic - sometimes they may be down for a day or two - in order to not exceed their allotted bandwidth. Just try it again later on. (BTW - this is what people may see on their autosurf programs if you exceed the allotted bandwidth for your web site (some servers send "exceeded bandwidth" messages; some do not). In any case, if you exceed the bandwidth of your web site by loading too much stuff on your target page, or sending too many autosurf programs to your site at once, you will use up your credits to display error pages.

     Signing up for these autosurf sites is probably the best way to get INSTANT hits to your Web site. You will note that the "hits" will be spread out over the surfer member base, so they all won't be consumed in a single day. If you surf once a week for 4 or 5 hours, this should give you enough credits to keep your site in the rotation for several days. When you are NOT using your PC (like when you're at work or sleeping), leave it on with the browser(s) auto-surfing. You'll generate hits for all the sites in the rotation, and get credits towards YOUR sites which will be "hit" when you allocate credits to them.

POWER TRICK: You can run two (or more) instances of the same autosurf program, provided you run them in separate browsers or separate instances of the same browser. For example, you can run Surfer1 in a tab using the , and run Surfer1 on Internet Explorer or Netscape, or Firefox. In a tabbed browser like ,you can run Surfer1, Surfer2, Surfer3, etc. - each in its own tab - as long as your computer and your Internet connection can handle it. I have run SIX autosurf programs at once - all in tabs on the . I could have started Internet Explorer and started another, but I was trying to do other work (constructing this Web site), and so, I was content to let the machine do the surfing FOR me, and I'd get SLAMMED with hits on my Web sites. It worked! You can also start multiple iterations of I.E. and run an autosurf program in each one, if you're more confortable with I.E. The point here is that you don't have to actually watch the surfing - although some of these programs will post a text link occasionally (typically less than 2 minutes) that can be clicked to gain lots of extra credits - which is an incentive to watch.

THIS IS REALLY LOVELY: The advantage of using the is that as many autosurf programs as your PC and ISP connection can handle can be running simultaneously. Each autosurf program has a timer, and having say.... TEN autosurf programs running at once won't impact the view timers, and you'll get all the surf credits as if you had run each autosurf program individually. Most of these sites allow you to surf with your browser minimized. The latest version of the also has the capability to run split-screen; i.e. the equivalent of two side-by-side tabbed browsers.

NEAT-O HINT: Once you have logged in, many of these autosurf programs have an option labeled "[Quick Access Link]" next to the "[Start Surfing]" or "[View For Credits]" links. Move your mouse over the link and right-click. Select "COPY SHORTCUT" from the dialog box, then right-click on the desktop, select "CREATE SHORTCUT", and paste the link in the URL box. Click "NEXT" then give the shortcut a name. From now on, you can start the autosurf program and surf without having to enter your login id and password. With a bit of practice, you can do this for a dozen or so of these programs, and have hit credits in the queue for all your Web sites.

After a few days you will have more hit credits than you know what to do with.

     When you have earned ten or twenty thousand "hits", assign them to one or more of your Web sites, and let the autosurfers generate hits to your site - And... you WILL - Get this - You WILL get hits to those sites when they are displayed by other autosurfers. Hits are goodness, and sales from those hits are even better.

BE CAREFUL: These autosurf programs (the ones I recommended above) can actually generate more traffic to your site than your IPP allows you on your (bandwidth limit) account. In such a case, your Web site won't be taken off the autosurf rotation; all that will happen is that when it comes your turn for the autosurfer to display your site, all anyone will see is a screen from the ISP that the Web site's bandwidth has been exceeded, and you will lose whatever credits you have remaining in the rotation. So it is important that you keep the page you send these autosurfers to loads quickly (less than 1 second on a DSL connection), and this keeps bandwidth to a minimum.

     The sites you promote with autosurfers should use MINIMUM graphics, no autoplay sound, no pop-ups, no frame breakers, no graphic peels, no embedded movies, or anything that will slow the page load down, or eat up your allocated bandwidth. Be simple. Get to the point. Captivate your audience with a few words in large print, because most autosurfers only display the page from 3 to 15 seconds.

     This site should serve as an example. I send the autosurf programs to a very short (home) page. The test is short and to-the-point. If someone is interested, he / she will stop the surf and click on the "Enter Site" link which takes them to the . No need to load all this and suck-up bandwidth and load time, because the autosurf windows are usually cluttered with countdown timers and banner ads and such, so put all your important stuff at the TOP of the page.

WELL, DUHHH!!

     Have you got an old PC lying around that you don't use anymore? Do you have more than one PC available to you? I have a state-of-the-art Notebook PC that I use for doing my productive work - like and doing . A friend of mine gave me an old PentiumIV with a 60Gb hard drive and 256Mb RAM, that for me, was an electric door-stop - until I put it to use doing full-time auto-surfing. The results have been nothing short of phenomenal... and I can "max-out" any of my Web site's bandwidth allocations at any time... and the advertising doesn't cost me a penny!

Want to see results? Check out the "Enterprise Hits" counter at the bottom of this page (and all pages on my Web sites (listed below) which records and displays hits for .

WHAT NOT TO DO

Do NOT send an autosurf program to a "free" web site. Most "free" sites are extremely limited in their bandwidth (which will show an error message and eat up your credits for nothing), and often have pop-ups, roll-overs, or frame-breaker code that will get your URL deleted (along with all the credits you assign to it) from the autosurf programs.

ANOTHER WORD OF CAUTION: You will be surfing hundreds of thousands of pages that you would not normally have visited. Some of these advertisers sometimes sneak in spyware or malware into their ads after the ad URL has been approved by the surf moderator. Therefore, in order to protect yourself, do NOT accept "cookies", do NOT allow any Javascript to run, DON'T accept any "expired" certificates, do NOT reply "yes" to any pop-up message, and do NOT allow any self-executing programs to run; if the dialog box appears, reply "deny the operation". If the site being displayed attempts to run Active-X on your PC, report the offending URL to the surf moderator via the [report abuse] link.  Be sure your antivirus / spyware is up to date.

VIRUS ALERT

If you happen to have picked up the BOGUS "AWOLA spyware removal" virus software (pops-up an annoying, persistent bogus message on the taskbar that says your virus software is not up to date), the following link takes you to instructions on how to remove it:   This problem surfaced in early December 2007, but has since been contained.
