MyBlogLog.com is now part of Yahoo Services »

The ever popular and free blogging service at MyBlogLog.com is now part of the Yahoo Services and you will need an existing Yahoo user ID to log into MyBlogLog.com. If you do not have one, you can sign up for one Yahoo ID for free.

After which, you will be asked to merge your MyBlogLog account with your own Yahoo user ID.

I guess this new move will get Yahoo more users (most notably web site publishers such as bloggers) in their worldwide community, even though some of you may use your Yahoo ID just for logging into MyBlogLog. For users who use Yahoo accounts, I think this will be a welcoming change for them since they have one user ID less to remember…

For me, Google is still the number 1 Internet company in my heart. No one else comes close…

It is companies like Google who constantly innovates and provides the opportunities for average folks like you and me to stay at home to work, and not stick our lives in a 9-5 job forever…

Internet Marketing Ask Me How! »

Hi all, I have lots of tips, information, strategies and techniques etc buzzing around in my mind, to the extent of not knowing what to write for my blog or my articles. So I thought maybe I can seek your opinion on what you will like me to write.

Stuff about Internet marketing and online businesses that you are interested to know, but not sure where or who to ask? How to earn $ through blogging? Maybe you can try to ask me :P

BTW I am not an Internet marketing guru (yet) but I have been learning from many such gurus (which I paid good money to learn from them), so I will be happy to share what I have learned with my readers if they are keen.

So, just shoot me your questions under the comments thread of this post, ok?

Internet Marketing Buzz of the Day »

Many Internet marketers whom I respect have been emailing me about a great traffic generation tool. Some of them include my mentor Stephen Pierce, home grown IMer Stuart Tan, WordPress Guy Gobala and even my good friend Andrew Tan.

So, I went to take a look at it. My opinion? It is one of the best traffic generation site that you can have today. And the best part of it? It is free.

I signed up immediately and I urged you to do the same too because in no time, the entire internet will be buzzing with this new site.

This is very easy to implement:

Sign up using my link here, copy and paste a piece of code into your blog, and voila, get ready to receive free and targeted traffic! I took less than 5 minutes to set it up. If you are slow, I think you will take about 10 minutes.

Check it out here immediately. Oh BTW, this is from John Reese, one of the most recognised traffic specialist on the internet.

What The Army Taught Me About Internet Marketing »

Hi all, I am finally back from my 2+ weeks of in-camp training in the Army. Just in case you think that serving the army does not help me in anyway in my internet marketing ventures, then my answer may surprise some of you.

First of all, the army is a military organisation and in such an organisation, maintaining one’s discipline while in camp is important such as waking up early for work, diligently carrying out duties that one has been assigned with etc. In my internet marketing businesses, the same holds true. I need to commit myself with utmost discipline to the objectives, goals and milestones that I have set for my Internet marketing businesses. If I am commited to spending 2 hours each day to drive traffic to my web sites, then I got to put aside whatever I need to, to ensure that I am spending 2 hours of productive time to engage myself in traffic generation strategies. This seems to validate what my Internet millionaire mentor Stephen Pierce was telling me about.

Secondly, while I was inside my army camp, I have very limited or no access to the Internet at all because the camp prohibits military personnel to bring in any devices that has any AV functions such as camera or video recorders and even mobile phones that have these functions, or memory storage devices such as memory cards. All these restrictions nudged me again that I need to further automate my Internet businesses on more aspects so that I can minimise disruptions to my online businesses while I am away from the computer and Internet.

Serving my National Service for the country has created many inconveniences for me as well as the hundreds of thousands of NSmen in Singapore. Nevertheless, this is something that we have to do in order to safeguard the peace and stability of Singapore. While many people, both locally and internationally, are laughing at how much a small country like Singapore can do to defend themselves, obviously they are missing out on things that they are not too clear about. In short, defending Singapore is not only about military defence. In fact, there are much more to it, such as economic defence.

The purpose of maintaining a Singapore’s army is not to go out to fight a war with any country, but more to act as a deterrent for any country who tries to play punk with Singapore. While Singapore may not win a war when it comes, we are sure that anyone who tries to attack us will experience a good setback in their military and economic resources when the war is over. Also, not forgetting the fact that when Singapore disappears from the face of this earth, so does the tens of billions of dollars that the Singapore government has invested in other economic powers of the world.

Fighting a war needs lots of money, and not many countries can afford that. I hope our 300,000 soldiers in Singapore will never need to go to war…

Internet Marketing Buzz of the Day »

Lately I have been receiving many emails promoting the pre-launch and launch of a brand new, free traffic generation site called ExitExplosion.com. (I am in a good position to know because I have been on the mailing list on many top, reputable Internet Marketers to see what’s going on in the world of Internet marketing for many years!)

Top Internet Gurus/marketers like Joel Comm (5 figure AdSense income earner) and Kelvin Hui (Yahoo sponsored web publisher who generates 9 millions hit to his web sites) etc are all promoting this new site to their list, so it made me sit up and re-look at the site again.

The site claimed that there’s a way to legally “steal” traffic from high-traffic websites and redirect it all to your website? I am not sure about you but it does sound interesting to me. It is free to sign up and very easy to implement as well. It allows one to be credited with free traffic for new referrals for up to 10 levels deep.

4 simple steps to start in less than 5 minutes:

Step 1: Sign Up For A Free Account (time: 20 seconds)
Step 2: Put The “ExitExplosion” code on your web site (time: 3 minutes)
Step 3: Bring in as many people as you can “under you” (time: up to you)
Step 4: Sit back, relax, and watch the traffic roll in… (time: immediately)

As of this writing, the site has just been launched today and I recommend that you may want to take a look at it if you are really interested in driving a lot of free traffic to your website!

Are you itching to find out how it works…? Then click here to find out more.

You Blog Me, I Blog You, We Create Buzzzzzz…… »

What I do these days is to go online everyday and spent many hours checking out the Internet to see what is new and interesting. Along the process, I chanced upon many interesting web sites that may be of interest to bloggers and Internet marketers. I took a closer took at some of them and thought they are really interesting to generate free traffic and make some cash for yourself online.

However, I have a dilemma because sometimes I wonder if I should spend my time on all these and then share all my hard work with everyone else without getting paid for it. Anyway, I am compiling all these information and packaging them up into an ebook or mini report and hopefully earn some cash for myself by selling them away. If you like what I am doing, do support me!

Nevertheless, today I will share something with you. That night when I could not sleep, I thought about getting my friends and associates to give me a blog review and in return, I will do the same for them so as to generate more traffic and backlinks to each other.

However, before I could start to contact them about it, something happened! (Well, as some of you already know that I am a firm believer of the Law Of Attraction because I know that it really works!)

And so the Law Of Attraction sprung into action again the very next day! While I was researching the Internet for new things, I chanced upon this web site reviewback.com. This site basically was started on the basis of what I had thought of the night before, that is to have blog owners create reviews for each other’s blogs to generate more traffic and backlinks to one another’s blogs!

ReviewBack is basically a free blog review and exchange service!

Reviewback - How It Works

The easiest and most effective way of promoting your content and website in the blogosphere today is to have fellow bloggers write about and link to your site. Reviewback takes all of the work out of tracking down and negotiating with fellow bloggers. Instead, ReviewBack provides a marketplace and trading ground where bloggers can get in touch with one another and help each other increase their exposure. All you need to do is sign up with ReviewBack and add your site into their ReviewBack directory, and begin swapping reviews with networked bloggers via ReviewBack.

Cool stuff! If you like this post, please social bookmark me or give me the StumbleUpon!

Does my traffic generation techniques work? »

If this is not the first time that you have been to my blog, you will know that not too long ago, I created a series of blog posts on how to generate free traffic to your web site.

Just in case some of you are wondering if those traffic generation techniques work or thinking that some of those techniques are old-schooled, useless traffic generation techniques, I can only tell you what my Internet Millionaire mentor told me:

Those techniques, when applied consistently and patiently, with a laser sharp focus on executing them is capable of producing a 6-7 figure income online for you.

Skeptical about this claim? Well, not too long ago, just by executing these free traffic generation techniques, a totally new project (new domain)  produced more than 200s email opt-ins and near to USD$500 in less than 1.5 months. So, I honestly see the potential of what these techniques can do for one.

And of course, after applying it to my other projects, it has also generated quite a bit of opt-ins and profits for myself.

I know it can do the same for you too but the key to all these small successes is to apply them consistently.

I wish you luck as you try them out!

Feel free to leave me your comments…
