What Is A Ping and Why You Should

For those of you who are wondering what is a ping and why you should, this post is for you. What a strange name for such an important thing! A ping is not something you do with your fingers on someone’s arm. It is a very important tool to get the word out about your blog, article or website.

A ping is defined as the act of letting the search engines (Google for one) know you have written something great and you want everyone to know about it. You want the search engines to crawl your page for new content.

That is the #1 way to be labeled a spammer and nobody will trust you, want to network with you or buy from you ever!

The Advantages of Selling PLR Ebooks

One of the greatest advantages of selling PLR (Private Label Rights) ebooks online is time. Why time? If you had to research, write and create your own content to use or sell online, it would be a most time consuming event. First you would have to do lots of research on your subject. Then you would have to get it all down on paper. Last you would need to buy a program that would put it all together for you or pay someone to do it. By buying the rights to someone else’s content, you can literally have instant access to a professionally written, low cost product.

OK this is a freebie that I found online and I think right now could be a very important tool to learning to market online.

The Social Networking Directory is a compilation of hundreds of networks in a “yellow Pages” type format. It even comes with a guide on how to use it, neat huh? I encourage any of you who are looking to use this type of platform (which should be everyone) to grab your free copy now, before he decides to charge for it.

The One Week Marketing Action Plan was written by someone who became an expert at using Squidoo for marketing and selling products mainly through Clickbank. I find her program to be one of the best written and easy to understand marketing plans on the internet.

Her e-book sells for $47 and in my opinion, is well worth the investment.
