WP Smart Tools Review: Affiliate and CPA Offer Conversion Maximizer!
Thursday
Feb 4, 2010
Seldom do I come across an Affiliate Marketing Tool or Wordpress Plugin that I consider to be unique or in a Class of its own. I was given a chance to Review WP Smart Tools from the creator of WP Link Engine and I have definitely found a product that is One of a Kind. After you see the Video below, you will have no choice but to agree with me.
I guess the first question is: What is WP Smart tools? WP Smart Tools is a series of Wordpress Post enhancers that allow you to create Posts for Affiliate and CPA Offers that you would not normally be able to create. There are a few other Plugins for Wordpress out there that have some of the same functionality, but WP Smart Tools literally gives you so many options that when I first started my Review of this software, I was overwhelmed. I thought I would be able to review this Plugin in just a few days, when in reality, it took me 2 weeks to really grasp the enormity of what this set of tools can do.
The Two main features of WP Smart Tools are the Smart Date and Smart Location functions.
Smart Date allows you to literally create and do anything with Dates that you want to do. if you want to make visitors think that something will end the very next day, every day for the life of the Post. You can do it. If you want to expire links after a certain date, you can do it. If you want to change text after a certain date, you can do it. There is so much more you can do, this is just a snapshot.
Smart Location allows you to do anything with locations or by locations. With Google Maps integration, you can show Maps of any location, of a visitors location, or of a specified location. The real treat with Smart Locations though is your ability to use any text or links and make them location specific. Just like Smart date, if you want only people from Canada to see a certain link or text, then only they will see it. If you want to place text or links for 20 different countries in your Post, it will still only be seen one way for each person depending on where they are from. It can be as simple as a small snippet of Anchor Text in the middle of a paragraph and it will not change the paragraph format, it will just change what is seen by each person from each location. This can be done by City, State, etc. Tons of op tons here and for Affiliate Marketers this kind of Tool is gold because it allows you to focus Affiliate links by location and not have to create more than a single Post.
WP Smart Tools also has Smart Protect which enhances the Security of your Blog. It has a great YouTube Video add in which can add videos to your Post or Sidebar. It has several Widgets and CPA Offer Themes that come with it that can help give you the ability to quickly use this Plugin to create awesome Landing Pages in just a few minutes. Then it also has a nice Pop up function which can keep visitors on your site a little longer, offer then something special, or redirect them to another page or URL altogether. If you are an Offers202 or Tracking202 Member, you can easily integrate your API into Smart tools and search Offers right from inside your Wordpress Blog for creating Posts. You can add a bunch of CPA and Affiliate Networks to this search function as well, just by adding your Affiliate ID. Clickbank Offers are also included. Plus, if you have been on the fence about buying WP Link Engine, their awesome Link Cloaking Plugin, WP Smart Tools comes with a Free “Lite” Version as well so you are able to test and use it.
One of the nicest little gadgets is the Variables Tool which allows those using PPC to add specific {keyword} variables to their Posts which Google will then see, enhancing your Quality score and Pagerank in the process.
There are literally way too many options in WP Smart tools to list. it is the most comprehensive collection of tools for Affiliate Marketing that I have ever seen in a Wordpress Plugin.
Take a look at the Video I created below and you will understand what I mean: (This Video is in HD, so Click on the Full Screen Icon in the Bottom Right of the Video Player for the best viewing of the Video.)
Now that You have seen all of the Options and the amazing list of features, go over to WP Smart Tools and check it out: WP Smart Tools
WP Link Engine Review: More than Just Another Link Cloaker
Wednesday
Jan 27, 2010
I have been using and recommending the MBP Ninja Affiliate Link Cloaker for a long time, but after testing the WP Link Engine link cloaker for Wordpress, I have now switched all my Link Cloaking on Wordpress to this fantastic Plugin.
Yes, there are a lot of Wordpress Plugins that Cloak Affiliate Links. They are not all created equal and WP Link Engine has definitely taken Link Cloaking and hiding the referrer to another level altogether. For those of you who are new to this and are wondering, “Why Should I Cloak My Affiliate Links?”. The answer is that you cannot afford not to. Google will classify your site as a thin Affiliate site if you have a ton of long ugly affiliate links on it and your site’s visitors will not click on long ugly links that are obvious Affiliate URLs.
So why do I think that WP Link Engine is so much better? It gives you the ultimate flexibility to literally do whatever you want with a link, regardless if it is an Affiliate link or not. You can do Wordpress Post and Page redirects. You can do split testing between multiple Affiliate links, Posts, or landing pages with one piece of text or phrase if you want. You can direct visitors to exactly the page you want them to go to and still get your affiliate commission.
For example, if you wanted to direct people straight to the purchase page of the Affiliate Program you are promoting instead of the Affiliate Program’s landing page because you think you can do a good enough job of selling the product for them; you can do it. If you want to hide your website from your Affiliate Network because it does not meet their terms of service, you can hide this and show them a site that they would approve of instead, even though that is not where the clicks are coming from. You can GEO Target and direct people from different countries to different URLs. The options are limitless.
Then you can also create as many Keywords as you want and decide on how many times in each post that Keyword becomes a cloaked Affiliate Link. Automatically. Which is great for Auto Blogs where you want to automatically place your Affiliate links into the post content without having to input it yourself, ever!
Take a look at the video below and I will show you the inside of this Plugin and tell you exactly what it can do. I did the Video in HD, so click on the Full Screen option so you can see exactly what I want to show you. (*If you can’t see the Video it is because you don’t have the latest version of Flash installed on your computer.)

Clickbank Affiliate Marketing Plus PLR Bonuses Equal Monster Profits!
Thursday
Oct 8, 2009
I get asked all the time about how I make money through Affiliate Marketing and why I am so successful at it. It is really all too simple and I am going to tell you exactly how I make most of my affiliate money.
I used to focus on mainly creating Product Review sites and don’t get me wrong, I still make a lot of money doing that. The problem is, I found out a neat little way of doubling my Profits. I offer Bonus Packages for the Clickbank Affiliate Products I promote. Most Affiliate Marketers hate these sites, but the reality is: They work. Why? Most of the people buying products from Clickbank are Newbies or serial buyers who are constantly buying new products and there are Millions of them.
Why just Clickbank? Right now the only reason is I am Lazy. I like to use software tools to my advantage and I like automation which creates less work for me.
Case in point. I just completed a very successful campaign in which I never paid a dime through PPC, yet I made over $10,000 in a week (and I am still making money from this) just by offering a $2500 Bonus Package to anyone who purchased the new Commission Blueprint 2 through my affiliate link.
I did this very easily through just a few products that I purchased quite awhile ago which are very cost effective and they have made me more money than I can count. First, I used Clickbank Bonus Domination. This software allows me to do 3 very significant things in the Affiliate Marketing arena. 1: It allows me to offer Bonus Products for Clickbank purchases that occur through my Clickbank Affiliate account automatically. Clickbank Bonus Domination integrates into Clickbank’s system and once a purchase is made through my affiliate link, the Buyer automatically receives an email from me which provides him with his Bonus link. All of this is controlled by the Clickbank Receipt number which basically becomes the Buyer’s password to my Bonus System. 2: The system allows me to integrate my GetResponse autoreponder and mailing list manager, capturing the email addresses of each buyer and adding them to my mailing list. This also allows me to do follow up mailings to targeted buyers who 50% of the time, buy again from me. 3: It provides me instant notification and provides me with a Reports section that let’s me track the success of my campaigns.
Now, you might ask how do I get the Products to give away for these Bonus Packages?? Easy. It is all Private Label Rights (PLR) Products. I purchase the Master Resale Rights to tons of PLR and I give these products away and they make me tons of Affiliate Commissions. I have 2 main memberships that make it easy and then I do targeted buys when I have a product I want to target. I use PLR Wholesaler which is a one time purchase for the life of the product which you will find is an incredible value since Gabor adds new stuff almost every other day to it and IMBuzz PLR which is a large product package monthly membership, but it is only $17 per month with the first month only costing $1. These products carry a lot of star power because you can sell the Master Resale Rights as well as use it for PLR.
I find Clickbank Products which are doing well (have a high gravity) in all of the Clickbank niches and I create a targeted Bonus for them. Sometimes I end up looking around the web for Bonuses and I will pay $200 or more to get a nice bonus package which compliments the product I am promoting. You don’t want to just throw the kitchen sink at your buyers like some people do. Make your Bonuses work with the Product you are promoting in other words.
I create the Bonus, then I setup a mailing list through GetResponse, and then I create a few articles promoting the Bonus Package and I also create a Wordpress blog using the FlexSqueeze theme. Wordpress sites get indexed quickly and are easy to get into the Number #1 to #3 rank in the Search Engines like Google. The I start my promotion campaign as documented in my last Post on Building Backlinks.
You might ask why I would give away my techniques here on the Blog, but unless you are new, you know I always do. 95% of the people who visit here never take advantage of this information and I still haven’t seen any competition for any of my current promotions worth worrying about.
This all works very well, but results will vary with your ability to construct effective copy which pulls buyers in. I also like to use video to enhance my ability to sell the product Bonus packages. But that all is basically it. Please ask questions on what I wasn’t clear about and I will do my best to help.
Commission Blueprint 2 Review: An Affiliate Marketing Masterpiece
Monday
Sep 7, 2009
Update: You can see my original Review of the New Commission Blueprint 2 below. The product definitely stands on its own as one of the Best of 2009. Here’s the latest development however. As you will notice from the Review, Commission Blueprint 2 was originally only available for 1 week. If you missed it, you were done. That has changed. Now, for a limited time, Tim Godfrey and Steve Clayton are opening CB 2.0 up again.
All you have to do it Click on any link on this page and you will be directed to the Commission Blueprint 2 site. You will be offered a Free Trial of both the Keyword Blueprint and Offer Evaluator software tools. After that you will receive emails offering you the both the Commission Blueprint 1 and 2 product packages for one low price. If you use the links here or on the Bonus site listed below, you will automatically receive my $2500 CB 2.0 Bonus Product Mega Package.
Here is my original review:
Now with Tim Godfrey and Steve Clayton’s Commission Blueprint 2.0 Launch just 2 days away, you might be wondering how I could possibly write a Review about it. Well, I was lucky enough to be one of the few to receive an Inside look at the product package. Now with over 40 Videos, 6 plus software tools, and numerous instructional manuals, this is what I would consider the most comprehensive and complete Affiliate Marketing product package I have ever seen.
A bold statement? Just hype? Definitely not. I was able to do a Video of the product package when I received it. At that time it was only 32 Videos, but it has grown because Tim and Steve asked for input on how they could make this an absolutely perfect Affiliate Marketing “Blueprint”. They also realize that while this information is the best they could put together, they don’t want to saturate the market with these techniques. With that in mind, they are only offering CB 2.0 for 1 week from September 9th to September 16t. On top of this, the product package price tag is a whopping $497. The software they are giving you with the purchase is worth the price by itself. When you get into the Material, you will be blown away.
The structure of the product provides instruction from Beginner to Intermediate, then to Advanced. Each module grew from this requirement alone and has made this product almost perfect in my opinion. Forget about an Adwords and Clickbank focused program like the last installment, this version is focused on Affiliate Marketing period and it also focuses on succeeding for Free. Take a look at the Video I made a week ago from the product package I received.
Now that you have seen the video, I have a few pictures which will show you the Actual Commission Blueprint 2.0 Members Area Home Page that you will come to when you receive your order: (Note: Due to my Agreement with the creators of CB 2.0, I can only show you so much. They are saving quite a few extras for Launch Day on September 9th.)

Shot 2:

Shot 3:

UPDATE: I now have uploaded a New Video of the Commission Blueprint 2 Member’s Area. With the Launch coming tomorrow, you can now see almost everything you are getting with this package now. Here’s the Member Area Video:
Now, you might have noticed that in the Review video above, I have created a special Review site just for this product Launch. That is because originally I was just asked to review and Comment on the Commission Blueprint 2.0 material. After Reviewing it though, I saw that this program is a once in a lifetime product for anyone who want to get into Affiliate Marketing and make a living from it. I mean you will not have to buy another Affiliate Marketing product again period after you purchase this product. All you will need to do is SEO on your sites unless you are using PPC.
With all of that in mind, I asked Tim and Steve if I could also be a Joint Venture Partner. They agreed. I then put together 2 Wordpress Sales Letter sites and started my SEO process with them.
http://www.commissionblueprint2review.info
http://www.commissionblueprint2bonuses.com
I put together what I think is a very complete Bonus package which addresses the needs of anyone using this program. Tim and Steve don’t miss much, so I focused on the fact that most beginners need more instruction so I put together 22 videos that teach everything from How to register a Domain Name to Building a Wordpress site. I then focused on the need for Affiliate Marketing templates which will enable you to hit the ground running and start making money fast with CB 2.0.
Check out the Video for the Entire Bonus Package:
If you are one of the few who wants to be able to start working from home full time with Affiliate Marketing, then this is the Product of 2009 to make that happen. These Bonuses are my Gift to you.
All you have to do is Purchase through this Link: Commission Blueprint 2
The Rest is Automatic. If you have any questions or Comments, I will be happy to give you all the information I have.
UPDATE September 13,2009: Tim and Steve are allowing anyone who wants to know more about Commission Blueprint 2.0’s Software package to try out their Keyword Blueprint and Offer Evaluator Software for Free for 7 Days. The great thing about this is that you do not have to supply a Credit Card or anything to try these 2 great tools out. All you have to do is enter your email address and click on the submit button. Also, as this offer is only good for the next 3 days, you get to take your time and decide if you want to Buy Commission Blueprint 2.0 for the Full 7 Days of your Trial, which takes you past the Closing of the CB 2.0 offer, which Officially Ends at 9am Eastern Standard Time on Wednesday September 16th.

MaxBlogPress’ Ninja Affiliate Link Cloaker for Wordpress is more than your normal link cloaker, it is a complete solution for Managing Affiliate Links on your Wordpress Blog.
First, after hearing the hype, I had to admit I was intrigued. I had been looking for a Plugin which would allow me to automatically add Affiliate links to blog posts without having to do anything. After I purchased Ninja Affiliate, I loaded it and within a week, MaxBlogPress had released an updated version which had every feature I needed. This is the perfect addition to my Autoblogging arsenal.
Of course, you can create an unlimited number of cloaked links. You can choose how you want them named and your Blog URL is the base URL for the links which gives your links Authority. Then, Ninja Affiliate tracks your Clicks so you know how often your links are being clicked. I know this sounds just like any other link cloaker, but here is where it all changes.
You can create Keywords that you want to become Affiliate links in your Blog Posts. You can create Anchor Text Affiliate links. You can choose to have these keywords activated on Pages. You can select Categories to use this function or not to use it. The number of Keywords you associate with each affiliate link is unlimited. You can also control how many keywords in each post are affiliate links and how many times each keyword specifically is made an affiliate link. You can also format each link to be Bold, Italic, change the color, font, etc.
You can see this all much better in this Video I created:
Now that you’ve seen it all, you cannot argue that there is not a better solution of managing your Affiliate links on a Blog around.

Zero Friction Marketing Review: Dominating CPA Without Google
Wednesday
Aug 5, 2009
It seems like there are a ton of new CPA Marketing products coming out right now and I have been largely ignoring them until I was convinced to try Zero Friction Marketing. Zero Friction Marketing is not too different from other programs, but it is very different in one way: It does not rely on Google to Make Money with CPA!
So if you’re wondering what CPA is? CPA stands for Cost Per Action. Instead of getting paid for a sale, you will get paid when a visitor fills out a form or completes a survey. In some ways it’s a lot easier to make money doing CPA, but in some ways it can be very difficult if you don’t know what you’re doing.
Zero Friction Marketing is a product compromised of over 30 videos and additional e-books that details how to do in most cases without even needing a website. This product also shows you how to use MySpace and Microsoft’s sites to make money with CPA using low-cost PPC as opposed to the very expensive Google Adwords program.
Take a look at this short video I made which basically goes over the basic structure of the program.
The thing that the video doesn’t show you is the detail that each video and the program has information you can get about how to make real money doing CPA marketing. Like I said in the beginning, this program is not too much different than many others that are focused on CPA. The big difference is the content, the detail, and the step-by-step instruction which will show even beginners who haven’t even built a website yet how to make money using CPA marketing and not having to rely on Google for once.

Nothing says what the program can do then hearing it from multiple users. Check out A Few Great Video Testimonials here: Zero Friction Marketing Testimonials
ReviewAZON Review: Build Niche Affiliate Wordpress Sites on Auto
Friday
Jul 31, 2009
As you’ll see in the video review, ReviewAZON is the ultimate niche affiliate WordPress site builder. This WordPress plugin can do more than just build Amazon.com affiliate sites. It can help you build full fledged Affiliate super sites.
ReviewAZON pulls product information from the Amazon Web Services infrastructure and relays that information to your WordPress blog, helping you create blog posts that are more than just normal posts. One post can consist of up to six different instances of product information for a single product from Amazon.com. You can pull the product information, product details, reviews, add YouTube video and more.
ReviewAZON can also integrate with great WordPress plugins like phpBay and phpOStock, integrating eBay auctions and Overstock.com affiliate products into the same posts you just created using ReviewAZON. These affiliate links can all be cloaked and made to be SEO friendly. Then for every click you receive, there is a click tracking section of ReviewAZON to keep you up-to-date with which products are getting the most attention.
Take a look at my video review, you’ll see that there is so much you can do with this product that it would take a lot more than a single blog post to tell you everything.
As I said in the video review,ReviewAZON comes with an 82 page manual that covers everything that the product can do. From customization, to combating duplicate content, to rearranging your blog posts to be unique to what you want to accomplish, there is literally nothing you cannot do with this WordPress plugin. Plus, you can pull individual products from Amazon.com and create a schedule of products that can literally cover the next year. Since these products can become drafts in your WordPress installation, you can then go in and customize them even more.
The thing I didn’t mention was the fact that you can add other tools to these posts too. Like the Vendiva Price Comparison service. This could almost ensure that every visitor is clicking on something when they visit.
So if you are looking to build an army of niche affiliate WordPress sites that you can literally make money from day after day, then ReviewAZON is for you.
Blog Profitz Review: Auto Blog Affiliate Datafeeds, Content, and Video
Thursday
Jun 4, 2009
The guys at Half Again have gone and done it again. It seems ironic that I have been talking about Auto Blogging for the last few posts and here you have one of the most advanced Auto Blogging services launching today, Blog Profitz.
A few weeks ago I was provided with a Blog Profitz account, so that I could adequately review and evaluate the Blog Profitz system. After a short period of time and several additions to a few of my blogs, I have to say they have done a masterful job at putting this service together.
Blog Profitz, in a nutshell, is a combination of an Affiliate Datafeed (for multiple services), Content Provider (from their Content Club), and Video Content (from Youtube), plus RSS Feeds from any RSS source. You take all of these and they add up to one great service which can automatically post to as many blogs as you want on the time schedule that you set.
Blog Profitz takes Half Again’s StoreStacker model and expands on it by using the dynamic database from Wordpress and other blog installs and can turn your blog into a Niche Specialty site in minutes, all on autopilot.
The Affiliate Datafeeds are populated from sources like Clickbank, Commission Junction, Ebay, Overstock.com, and many, many more. You can set up the number of items, by category and keyword so that you can fill specific categories on your blog with the exact items you want on a posting schedule that you desire. You set up each blog individually and then you can also setup each service individually to post what you want for each blog you have. The sky is really the limit based on the membership level that you choose.
The Content Club content is unique content, better than any PLR articles you will ever find (one of the better content sources out there by itself), but here you do not have to pay extra for the articles as you normally would. You can choose the category and autopost from over 15,000 articles to your site with content specifically targeted to your niche.
Then, you can pick any RSS Feed source you want and add more content to your site with Niche Targeted content, once again on a schedule that you set. You can do this differently for every blog you have on the system. Also, add in the You Tube Video Content source, and all you have to do is choose keywords or authors and start pumping Video into your blog to whatever category and you want on the schedule you want.
You can see what I am getting at here right? The possibilities are endless. It is up to you and your imagination. I have added this service to 2 of my pre-existing blogs and have created 4 more. All are getting tremendous traffic already (50-150 unique visitors per day) and all are heavily indexed in Google with no issues. With this much variation in content, and you do need to use the content sources not just affiliate datafeeds, you can show Google that you have a lot of content from various sources and that your Blog is well rounded. Providing your visitors with everything they could want from a Niche Targeted blog. I have easily made around $350 from these sites already with little to no effort on my part.
I can’t say enough about this service, but then again, I got it for Free. Great work guys!!

WPReviewEngine Review: Create a Wordpress Affiliate Review Site
Monday
May 18, 2009
There are alot of Affiliate Review sites built with Wordpress, but there are not a lot of Wordpress Review Plugins built specifically for Wordpress which actually work well. Well, that is no longer true. WPReviewEngine is a new, but highly effective Wordpress Affiliate Review Site Plugin.
What sets WPReviewEngine apart from the competition?
The feature list is simple, but it is more about the execution than anything. Sometimes pictures show you better than anything. Here is what you can do with WPReviewEngine:

Out of the box (so to speak), WPReviewEngine breaks down into 3 Wordpress Plugins. A CSV Plugin for Mass Importing of reviews, an Affiliate Link Cloaker, and Review Engine (the heart and Soul of the Program). The first 2 I didn’t really bother with as I already have a good link cloaker and tracker, but the Review Engine is worth it’s weight in Gold.
You can use your own Wordpress Themes, or you can use one of the two themes included with the Plugin. The picture show above is based on one of the included themes. When you use their themes you do not have to select the “embed” option because the code is already written into the themes.
You can easily add Reviews and choose to either Rate the Posts/ Products/ Services yourself, or you can choose to let the visitors to your site Rate the items and leave their Comments. If you rate the posts, the Rating will always stay the same. You can choose to show the Rating Table which shows the current order of the Rated items from #1 to whatever. If you let your visitors ratings decide the order, the items can and will change their order in the Ratings Table based on the results. I like this as it begs for return visits. (You do not have to show the Ratings Table if you do not want to.)
If you already have a site filled with Reviews, you can setup your Rating Criteria (you can set an unlimited number of Rating Criteria) and Mass Apply it to every Post. You then only have to input your “Editor” Ratings if you are using your Ratings, or you can let it sit and wait for visitor input.
Most of your options are built right into the Add New Post area of Wordpress which makes this very convenient and easy to use. I created a cPanel Hosting Review site in about 15 minutes: The cPanel Host (still adding reviews).
I initially had some issues with the activation.php file which comes with the program, but within 2 hours, Customer Support had me taken care of. I was pleasantly surprised.
Overall, this is one of the most feature rich Wordpress Review Plugins I have had the chance to use. I like the fact that they provide excellent themes with the Plugin, but you don’t have to use them. I can’t think of an easier way to make Wordpress Affiliate Review sites fast.
