			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p id="top" /><div id="attachment_272" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 214px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-272" title="arbitrage" src="http://www.askmikehill.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/arbitrage.png" alt="Arbitrage Conspiracy" width="204" height="167" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Poor Man&#39;s Arbitrage... </p></div></p>
<p><strong>David Vallieres calls this &#8220;The Poor Man&#8217;s Arbitrage&#8221; video and in a minute I&#8217;ll tell you how to get it absolutely free.</strong></p>
<p>This is one of the most ingenious ideas I&#8217;ve seen in a long time and David Vallieres, a friend of mine has revealed something extraordinary <span style="text-decoration: underline;">based on a hunch</span> - but after watching the video myself (mostly in shock) I have to agree that this could easily put an extra $500 to $1,000 a day into your pocket.</p>
<p>But first&#8230;</p>
<p>Do you remember the Arbitrage Conspiracy launch? If you&#8217;ve been online and interested in making money from home and have been on the internet more than a week then you would no doubt have been slammed with a ton of emails about it.</p>
<p>There was a HUGE list of top marketers at a $10,000 event recently were they learned all about this whole arbitrage conspiracy thing. It had a lot to do with CPA offers and different techniques to making it big, that no one has ever shared before.</p>
<p>Personally I didn&#8217;t get the course because I just have too much on my plate right now with other business launches, products launches, coaching program launches, etc. to be indulged into this too.</p>
<p>However, I think a lot of you did not get it because it was just way out of your reach as far as the price goes, which is completely understandable at this time.</p>
<p>But the other day  I got an email from this friend of mine and he revealed what he spotted in a video I think everyone should see, even if you&#8217;re not interested in CPA stuff&#8230; because it&#8217;s a good marketing lesson and it&#8217;s free.</p>
<p>It will also demonstrate there is more going on online, more money being made online and secret squirrel stuff being talked about behind closed doors were only a select few ever get to be a part of &#8220;the loop&#8221;. There are deals being made and HUGE profits being created.</p>
<p>This is a fantastic resource&#8230;</p>
<p>When you go to this page, look right under the title at the top and you will see the link to download the video. There are also a ton of resources on this page if you want to investigate the opportunity further, but for now just watch the video - it&#8217;s a real eye opener.</p>
<p>There is one small catch though. You have to send $100 to my PayPal account in order to watch the video and then once you post a comment below I&#8217;ll refund your cash&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230; Just kidding!</p>
<p>Here is the link to the video for free, but I&#8217;d still like to see your comments about the video below after you have watched the entire thing.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.thinkandsucceed.com/arb/arbitrage.html" target="_blank">Click here to watch Poor Man&#8217;s Arbitrage!</a></p>
<p>Enjoy!</p>
<p>Mike Hill</p>
<p>PS. Don&#8217;t forget to comment below&#8230;</p>
<p>PPS. My friend who made this video could have easily sold it for $97&#8230; But he decided to give it away free so the next time you see David Vallieres you should thank him. Actually, after you watch the video why not go and see his website - he&#8217;s an amazing marketer with very intriguing insights.</p>
<p><a href="http://thinkandsucceed.com/" target="_blank">Here&#8217;s a link to David Vallieres website (one of them anyway)</a></p>

<p><strong>Well now even you can claim your share of those million dollar launches&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>With the power of Web 2.0, social networking sites, bookmarking sites, YouTube and all those other quick traffic sources you could be getting some hefty commissions if <em>&#8220;the click&#8221;</em> just let you join their affiliate program during the pre-launch&#8230; right?</p>
<p>Well this is for all of you who think you can do some serious damage and rake in $500 - $1,000 commissions just by jumping in the trenches and doing some intense article wizardry and social site creation before the product goes live <em>(as they call it)</em>.</p>
<p><strong>Here&#8217;s what you do:</strong></p>
<p>1. Find a product that is in the pre-launch phase <em>(that&#8217;s easy&#8230; everyone of the BIG guys is talking about it in their emails)</em></p>
<p>2. Go to Google and do a simple site search like this:</p>
<p>site:sitename.com</p>
<p>3. What you are looking for is a page that refers to JV or Affiliates</p>
<p><strong>That&#8217;s it&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>Now, not every launch will leave these clues but a lot of them do so if you ever wanted to get in on some of these launches before they happen and rake in a few solid commission checks then this is all you need to do.</p>
<p>Heck, if you end up making a lot of sales I guarantee you will get noticed by every BIG GUN on the planet. Not to mention, you&#8217;ll start getting personal invites like crazy!</p>

<p>If you&#8217;ve ever tried making money on the internet there may have been a time when you thought it was all a big fat lie. <em>(Maybe you still think that?)</em></p>
<p>With all the information available and all the differences of opinion about what it takes to &#8220;make it&#8221; online I&#8217;d like to share with you a list of the top internet entrepreneurs under the age of 21 and a common thread between them that has propelled them to their own online success.</p>
<p>Out of the top 20 young internet entrepreneurs under 21, eight of them have one thing in common that I really want you to pay attention to.</p>
<p>Especially if you think that making money online is near impossible!</p>
<p>First the list, their ages and their websites:</p>
<ol>
<li>Paul Bourqe 19 years old - <a href="http://www.uberaffiliate.com" target="_blank">www.uberaffiliate.com</a></li>
<li>Carl Ocab 15 years old - <a href="http://www.carlocab.com" target="_blank">www.carlocab.com</a></li>
<li>Stanley Tang 16 years old - <a href="http://www.emillionsblog.com" target="_blank">www.emillionsblog.com</a></li>
<li>Long Zheng 20 years old - <a href="http://www.istartedsomething.com" target="_blank">www.istartedsomething.com</a></li>
<li>Andrew Galasetti 20 years old - <a href="http://www.lyved.com" target="_blank">www.lyved.com</a></li>
<li>Joel Drapper 15 years old - <a href="http://www.joeldrapper.com" target="_blank">www.joeldrapper.com</a></li>
<li>Liam Goodwin - <a href="http://www.filmonic.com" target="_blank">www.filmonic.com</a></li>
<li>Thilak Raj Rao - <a href="http://www.tech-buzz.net" target="_blank">www.tech-buzz.net</a></li>
</ol>
<p>If you take a closer look you will notice the one thing these youngsters all have in common&#8230;</p>
<h2><strong>Know what it is..?</strong></h2>
<p>Most of you will guess it right off the top but for the rest who just can&#8217;t see it yet, I&#8217;ll tell you&#8230;</p>
<p>They all started a BLOG!</p>
<p>Simple eh? Well most beginner online marketers never start a blog, or if they do it&#8217;s a ghost town within a month. I know this for a fact - been there done that, got the t-shirt!</p>
<p>There are so many courses, so many how-to videos, so many physical products, tons of &#8220;The Secret&#8221; now revealed or the infamous &#8220;_____ is dead&#8221; reports&#8230; all wanting to show you the latest technique.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s nothing wrong with that, however most of you are NOT ready for information like that at this point.</p>
<p><strong>What&#8217;s wrong with S-I-M-P-L-E&#8230;?</strong> Being highly motivated and seriously focused on a simple plan is highly effective in any business, but online you can begin for just a few bucks.</p>
<p>Here are some helpful tips:</p>
<p>1. Take the time to get a domain name and web hosting.</p>
<p>2. Have a clear and consise plan on were you want to take your business</p>
<p>3. Create a detailed plan of action - I have a daily schedule! (hint)</p>
<p>4. Actually do the work!</p>
<p>That&#8217;s it&#8230; you can be in business tomorrow, <span style="text-decoration: underline;">but there are a few things you may want to spend a bit of time on before rushing off to start a new blog.</span></p>
<p>I&#8217;ll get into those details a little later&#8230;</p>
<p>Chow for now!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p id="top" /><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-253" style="margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px;" title="gravatar" src="http://www.askmikehill.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/gravatar.png" alt="" width="200" height="283" />Okay lets turn a blank avatar into an image of your choice. (hopefully something respectable)</p>
<p>It not only looks more professional when you have your picture beside any blog comments you make but it also helps with branding yourself, which everyone should be doing at ever chance they get because this is how people grow to know, like and trust you.</p>
<p>Go to <a href="http://www.gravatar.com" target="_blank">www.gravatar.com</a> and sign up for a free account then assign your email address with the image that you decide to upload to Gravatar.</p>
<p>If you have more than one email address that you use to make comments on blogs then you can assign either the same image or alternate images depending on what you prefer.</p>
<p>Whenever you visit a blog that has avatars enabled then every time you leave a comment your image will show up.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s important not to ignore the little ways to brand yourself that take just minutes to put into effect and then it&#8217;s done.</p>
<p>If you have a blog that has avatars enabled why not mention it to your readers? It makes your blog look more personable when outsiders come in for the first time.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p id="top" /><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-229" style="margin: 5px 8px;" title="membersonly" src="http://www.askmikehill.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/membersonly.jpg" alt="" width="161" height="152" />Okay, your membership site content is ready to go after several months of preparation. All the videos have been edited, you have an idea of the different categories but what now?</p>
<p>Do I hire a coder&#8230; or do I tackle this bad boy on my own?</p>
<p>Well here&#8217;s what I would do to save you a ton of cash if you were to hire a coder. Let&#8217;s face it, coders are expensive and trying to relay to them exactly what you want can be a nightmare.</p>
<p>First lets choose a Content Management System (CMS)&#8230; The easiest to manipulate is in fact a Word Press blog. I am using Joomla for my next membership and it&#8217;s been a real challenge even for a semi-experienced guy.</p>
<p>No, for me&#8230; the next membership site I create will definitely be from a word press blog.</p>
<p>More specifically a Revolution Magazine Theme (One of the older designs. When you get a membership at <a href="https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/gb.php?cl=10214&amp;c=ib&amp;aff=19912&quot; target=&quot;ejejcsingle">Revolutiontwo.com</a> you can download any and all themes).</p>
<p>Then secure it with aMember and buy the additional WP plugin.</p>
<p>This is the easiest way to go about it. Sprinkle the paid content on the first page around the free stuff. When a free member clicks on the Premium content it will prompt for a membership signup.</p>
<p>This way you won&#8217;t need a tech guy. I set it up myself and with a little help from David Moskowitz and his Membership Academy. It costs way less than a coder and his videos explain everything.</p>
<p>FYI: Once you have this all setup all you have to do is post all the content and select whether it will be free content or premium. Click the little box as to which one it is and you&#8217;re finished.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s definitely an easy and painless way to get started&#8230;</p>
<p>Mike Hill</p>
<p>PS. Here is an example of the type of membership site I&#8217;ve explained http://www.3xmethod.com/</p>
<p>PPS. aMember costs - $180<br />
WP Plugin costs - $40<br />
Membership Academy costs - $19.97<br />
<a href="https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/gb.php?cl=10214&amp;c=ib&amp;aff=19912&quot; target=&quot;ejejcsingle">WP Theme costs</a> - $149.95 / lifetime (as many themes as you can handle )</p>
<p><strong>Total cost = $389.92</strong> Not too shabby considering a coder would cost way more than this. And on your second membership site you can eliminate the cost for blog themes as that was a cost for lifetime downloads&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p id="top" /><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-197" style="margin: 5px;" title="classmates" src="http://www.askmikehill.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/classmates-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="180" /></p>
<p>ABC News reports a lawsuit being filed by a San Diego man who claims he has been duped into upgrading his membership status at Classmates.com to see who was trying to contact him.</p>
<p>The $15 upgrade was paid but when Anthony Michaels went to see who was trying to contact him he found the truth&#8230;</p>
<p>It appears that no-one was trying to contact him from Classmates.com and has now filed a suit against the company for false advertising.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t know about you but I have personally seen these emails Anthony is talking about. They [classmates.com] try to get you to upgrade to a paid membership to see who is trying to contact you.</p>
<p>Trouble is no-one has been trying to reach you.</p>
<p>Does this seem deceptive to you? It sure seems that way to me and even though there are two sides to every story I know for a fact that no-one was trying to contact me when I received these emails. I immediately ignored those emails from Classmates.com because it really seemed suspisious to me.</p>
<p>So this comes down to &#8220;How honest are you being online?&#8221; &#8230;&#8221;Are your claims on your website true?&#8221;</p>
<p>Mark my words&#8230; It&#8217;s only a matter of time before Government regulators start cracking down on deceptive advertising online&#8230; DON&#8217;T be the example!</p>
<p>If you&#8217;d like to read ABC&#8217;s story about  Anthony Michaels <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/story?id=6237109&amp;page=1" target="_blank">click here</a></p>

<p>I&#8217;ve been with Kiosk now for more than a year and I absolutely LOVE their service. I have about 30 websites running at any one time with Kiosk and have never had a problem with them going down.</p>
<p>I even did a comparison with other popular hosting companies such as Host Gator and all I have to say is that Kiosk won hands down as far as service up time, customer service response time and reliability of service.</p>
<p>Before I went with Kiosk all my internet marketing friends kept telling me how great Kiosk was and that they truly do understand Internet marketers. I&#8217;ve heard a lot of horror stories about other companies and on product launch day you don&#8217;t need any added stress&#8230;</p>
<p>That was the biggest reason I switched over to Kiosk and gave them a try.</p>
<p>Not only has Kiosk surpassed my expectations but they have also made things very easy for me to setup, Mike Potvin (Joel Therien&#8217;s business partner and friend) is always sending me emails of thanks when I post comments on their blog - and that says a lot about their dedication to customer satisfaction.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.wwkiosk.com/members/mikeh200" target="_blank">Kiosk.ws Unlimited Domains Hosting</a></p>
<p>If you&#8217;re on the fence about getting involved with Kiosk as your hosting solution then you may just want to take a look at the options they provide to you and let&#8217;s not forget these guys know what Internet Marketers need.</p>
<p>They won&#8217;t try and sell you a bunch of bells and whistles you&#8217;ll never use. And besides, I pay for my own resellers account on a yearly basis just so I can use the entire thing myself. I can create new domain accounts on the fly and have brand new websites up and running in a few hours instead of a few days like with most other hosting companies&#8230;. You control your business 100%</p>
<p>I can&#8217;t say enough good things about Kiosk, they have definitely made an impression on me and my business and now that they have built an even larger data center in Texas it will only get better for Kiosk clients.</p>
