Alex Jeffreys Google Challenge Winner is …….
Posted by: | CommentsAs some of my subscribers/readers know that Alex Jeffreys has been running his mentoring program
Now, one of the challenges Alex set was to get No1 Postition on Google for the search Term ‘Alex Jeffreys’, this would take some doing, I thought
However, Garry Parkes aka – Parkesy has provided undeniable proof that someone has hot the top spot:
The winner is Gary Simpson AKA THE GAZZ-MAN, I would recommend you jump over to the Gazz-Man’s blog and have a nose about as there are some great info (time planners etc) great posts and conversation going on there.
I forgot to mention, The Profit Pulling Platform Newsletter @ Parkesy Blog is due out so grab yourself a copy, I can’t wait to find out what is in it and what the The Purple Blog Queen Nikki Stephens has in store this issue @ the newbies corner….
It is funny, I was watching the Teenage Ninja turtles and there is a wise old fox/dog in a karate suit, and I thought of Gazz-Man, yes I know I have the strangest mind at time lol !!
As always feel free to comment or post your congratulations to the Gazz Man hitting No1 on Google 
The Castlemaine XXXX are on Gazz ! (or am I showing my age, is it Fosters now?? )
Building the Foundations for your Online Business
Posted by: | CommentsI have been thinking a lot about the coming year and what I hope to achieve ….
I intend to take my time in building up my ‘online business’ and I do hope becoming reasonably sucessfull in my own way ….
Let me explain further, I was watching a program the other night with Amanda my wife, her mum and sister …. it was called ‘Holiday Homes from Hell’ …..
basically British people buying dream properties in Spain and the likes and the homes falling down round their ears sort of thing …..
The problem being the homes foundations were not built properly, so everything else fell down …..
This got me thinking about things within my life and the importance of good foundations both online and offline ….
For example, Trust and honesty in a marriage and doing as you are told !!
A Good Foundation for a happy marriage?
Ok, maybe again I have my tongue in my cheek, but you get the idea ….
Now this got me thinking about the foundations I am building online ……
as I mentioned above I am not going to anyone’s timetable but my own …
I have posted my online goals for the next 90 days granted and hope to achieve them, these I look at the material goals but not my foundations ….
The foundations, I am talking about are building relationships online ….
This I love, it amazes me still as to how releationships and friendships can be built online and be so strong, even though you might never physically meet them ….
So people like Alex Jeffreys, John Thornhill, Ray Johnson, Randy Smith, Richard Fenn, Gary Simpson, Garry Parkes, Nikki Stephens, Dean Holland, Mark McWilliams, Paula Brett to name a few, (there are too many to mention)……
These special people in one way or another have played a part in helping me ‘build my foundations’ and for that I thank you all
Now no matter what your goals are in 2009 …..
Quit your job?
Provide some extra income for your family?
Get out of debt?
Whatever it maybe, make sure you have strong foundations, if you do then the rest of your online business will be solid
As always, feel free to comment
Alex Jeffreys Internet Marketing Guru- This is your Life!
Posted by: | CommentsAs my subscribers and readers will have seen in my last post, Alex Jeffrey is running his mentoring course, and I have seen some great videos being produced by his students….
The reason being to see how much traffic can be generated, if I am correct the winning video will win a cash prize?
I am not part of the mentoring course, but have been assisting others where I can who are part of the F500. I have also been lucky enough to strike up some good online friendships with Garry Parkes, Gary Simpson, Dean Holland and not to forget the Purple Blog Queen – Nikki Stephens to name a few …..
Now having read on the students blogs of what they were trying to achieve …. I wondered how much traffic could I generate to my blog by creating an Alex Jeffrey’s video, just for fun and research purposes.
So here it is, drumroll please !!! ……… Alex Jeffreys – This is your Life!
Some readers have emailed me and also posted on my blog about trying to come up with ideas for their own videos…….
My advice is try and not think too hard, for me that was easy as I am not the sharpest tool in the box at times…..
It can be very easy to over complicate things, here is my story of how the above video was born ….
I had been viewing some of the Alex Jeffrey’s videos on Youtube and felt inspired, honest …..
I was reading a post on the Internet Temple Goo Roo himself Gary Simpson’s blog and mailed him to say I was thinking of creating a video to test what he had written on his blog , this was Monday past,
I work hard offline in my ‘day job’ so was not able to give too much thought to my ‘Alex Jeffrey – Theme’ ……
It was Wednesday now, and my good lady wife was going to work (I work shifts ) and was thinking about ‘What could I do???’
I then came up with ‘This is your Life’ theme, hopefully by now you will have viewed the video above ……
Now, this is where the don’t overcomplicate things (unless you are a video/musical editing wizard)
I had initially searched the internet to find the This is your Life Soundtrack
I would have that play and fade and begin the video commentary
I created my webpages in Dreamweaver and sourced the pictures etc for video
I then watched Nitin Mistry’s How to Video’s for editing music etc (this man is a talent!)
At this point, I thought ‘Tommy, you are over complicating things, and remember your ‘techie’ limits!’
I then decided to do a Dennis Waterman (Little Britain Style) Write the theme toon, Sing the theme toon etc, I intended to sound as bad as I did (HONEST!)
The antibiotics are still working their magic
For those of my overseas readers that may be scratching their heads Dennis Who? Little What? ……
Dennis Waterman is an actor who has starred in The Sweeney, Minder, New Tricks etc, he writes, sings the theme tune and stars in the program etc, Little Britian Comedy Show did a ’spoof’ of these facts and also that when the met him he seemed a whole lot smaller than he seems on the screen ……
Anyways, check it out here for a better idea……Dennis Waterman – Little Britain Style!
I guess I am trying to see how much traffic a ‘bad’ video can produce….
In my defense, I am still only about 60-70% fit, given the severe dose of Man Flu I have had lingering 4-5 weeks ….
If anything, hopefully the video will motivate others to give it a bash, as it can’t be any worse than mine lol
As always, feel free to comment, laugh or post asking for me to be shot at dawn
Alex Jeffrey’s Video Traffic Tornado Competition
Posted by: | CommentsAs some of my subscribers/readers will know Alex Jeffrey is currently running his internet marketing mentoring course.
I watched with great interest as the students have progressed throughout the course so far, and is showing that what Alex is teaching is working ……
Anyways back to the reason for the post, one of the modules that the students are completing at the moment is traffic generation, I have also read and heard that Alex has set a competition to his ‘peeps’ to create a video to pull in major traffic, I have had a smile and a laugh at a couple I have seen so far ….
Firstly, this is Nitin Mistry’s Video, very catchy and a contender for the next X-Factor me thinks…..
The Second video I have seen to day is Garry Parke’s video, gives a different slant and brought a smile to my face, I wonder where he got the bell idea from — Gazz-Man?? lol !! ** Look out for the Guitar Hero Display **
There is also a romour that there may be a Traffic Tornado coming from Down Under soon!! And no I did not have a bad curry !!! lol !!!
Any comments or if you have a better video let me know as I need a good laugh !

How to create simple redirect links for your Wordpress Blog and eBook
Posted by: | CommentsI have had some questions and emails about how to create a simple redirect link for a blog or to include within your eBook …
I know that some of my readers/subscribers are following Dean at his blog and unfortunately still experiencing problems …
This got me thinking, how many other people are needing help, but are struggling on…..?
I would suggest to those that are having problems, the best thing to do if you can’t fix it, is to ask for help or advice, while I myself also struggle to do this at times, I have found with experience that it is best just to ask for help and advice …..
Why? …..
because before you know it you may have spent a few hours trying to fix or follow steps to complete a task, each time you fail, getting slowly disheartened and before you know it you are powering down your computer.
What had started as a positive day, with your to-do list at the ready and goals to hand, you will have written off your day no further forward…
while if you ask for help wether it be at a blog like mine, send an email or post a question on a forum …
Now, you might say “but how long before I get an answer?” …….
it may not be immediate, however think about the other tasks you could be working on while waiting for the answer …..
do you see where i am going here …. 1, 2, 3 ?
you get the solution to the task you were having some problem ( for some this will be the video below and before you know it you have a handful of tasks completed )
Now, I do not want this to seem as a sermon, but just to try and help my readers/subscribers to get into the ‘mindset’ of seeking help if they need it ….
In a way if you do you are ‘outsourcing’ to a degree … well enough of my chat as requested here is the video tutorial that will show how to create a simple redirect link for your Blog or eBook
**Please accept my apologises as I am still suffering from a cold, so would suggest you do not have your headset set at full volume I do *cough* twice, I did however promise a couple of readers I would complete this tutorial today, to help them complete this task … so bear with me **
Here is the .php code as shown in the video above, just copy and paste into notepad ….
?php $URL=”enter your web address link here”;
header (“Location: $URL”);
exit();
?
Please add < and also .....
> at begining an end of code as shown in video
Here is the redirect link created in the video:

My Online Goals for 2009 What are your online goals?
Posted by: | CommentsWhat .?????…..
I know we have not even had Christmas yet …. but believe it or not 2009 is only 6 weeks away …scary … I know …
but it got me thinking about what I could look to achieve in 2009, this last year seems to have flown by and I have for most been busy offline with my wedding and other commitments, one thing I have done now that things have calmed down and I can actually get more time to sit in front of the pc, is to reflect ….
The one thing I have been guilty of is what I would call ‘headless chicken syndrome’ (this is where if you cut the head of a chicken the body will still run about without a head?? lol )
but I am sure you get the picture, but what I mean by it is that I sit down at the pc, and before you know it, you have not got half the things done that I should have, having taken stock, this is what I intend to to do.
Before I even turn on my PC/Laptop, I will write down a checklist of everything I intend to get done and in brackets how long I expect each task to take.
Concentrate on one thing at a time, and get that finished rather than working on a few projects and slowing things down
Continue to try and help others to achieve their online ventures
Have quality time with my new wife and family, this is important as well to keep a balance
Keep the faith and focus when things don’t go to plan
Lastly, is continue to take action!, this is very important because if you do not take action, then if you can imagine being in a boat with only one oar, all that will happen is you will go round in circles and never get anywhere!
Ok, I think this post will be interesting, when I look back at the end of 2009 and see if I managed to achieve all my goals ……
I intend to revamp my membership site and also create at least 2 others.
I need to get new graphics and rewrite the sales letter of www.membershipmanagersupreme.co.uk, and shortly offer my subscribers a special offer for those that wish a copy of MembershipManagerSupreme.
Launch at least two new eBooks to add to my portfolio of products.
I have a couple of other ideas to try and create more income streams, but will explain what they are later as I may use as a topic of one of my eBooks or maybe even a physical book as my last post explained.
I will add to this post, but I think that the above is a start … lol !!
What goals are you setting yourself for 2009?
