Over the next week to ten days you should start to add quality content per the Seo Press Formula course to your website. Make sure to add the content using the wordpress “posts” section rather than pages, posts get added to your rss feed which will be beneficial at a later date.
While the video starts off by saying “I am not going to be giving you lots of details” I would like to clarify that I simply did not have the time with the youtube.com video to touch on every aspect of this part of the challenge. If you have questions about how you should be adding your content feel free to post those questions below in the comments section.
Simply follow these guidelines, created content for your sites based on what people are search for. Make sure to use the exact search phrase within the title of your “post” and also in the meta description. You can add content based on product and manufacture names within your niche, LSI terms or related terms based around your sites theme.
Each post you add should be at least 350 words in length, however I would advise to shoot for 500 to 600 words in length. You can also add adsense to your site at this time as well as affiliate links (just make sure the links are cloaked).
Ranking on Google is not complicated, provide quality content that helps people. Make sure your using the types of words you want to rank for in your title and meta description tags. Get a few inbound link.
Before we move on to assignment five I wanted to post some information about your sites title or “html title tag”. If you have been following along to this point with the Seo Press Formula ebook and course videos you will have choose a keyword rich domain name, which will also be in part your sites name. Since this keyword phrase is considered your “target” phrase it is easy to use the phrase too often which can have a back lash effect with Google.
Only use your domains keyword phrase:
Once in the title tag
Once in your home page article
Your Meta Description (which you add with the excellent all in one seo plugin) should be comprised of a sentence or two that reads well and offers several additional keyword phrases you are trying to rank for.
As mentioned above if you do overuse your domains keyword phrase Google will not take kindly to your site. Remember, you already have the term in your domain name, and your title. Add it once in the content of your homepage and that is it. When your installing the plugins like All In One Seo and adding a meta description I would not use your exact keyword phrase, it would be just too much. Below I have added an example of how you might construct your homepage title tag as well as the meta description for your index or homepage.
Example – Our Target Keyword Phrase Will Be:
Cheap Fishing Reels
Ok our domain is: cheapfishingreels.org (example) Our title might be something like:
CheapFishingRods.org for discount penn, zebco, and daiwa rods online. Cheap prices including antique rods and reels.
Then your article should NOT have your target keyword phrase listed more than say once or twice. Write your sites content for a human, however know your need to please google as well.
Think a natural written article for people, not search engines – add your main keyword phrase in your sites content a few times and that is all.
About three months ago I released my first internet marketing course called Revenue Domains Exposed. The course offers over 5 hours of tutorial “how to” video as well as and ebook and deals with tapping into affiliate commissions and adsense income via expired domain names.
I began testing out concepts last year and it became so very powerful I actually launched Rev Domains. From time to time I like to continue to test these methods and in May I stopped by Godaddy’s TDNam and pickup up a fantastic domain name in less than 15 minutes or so.
After I grabbed the domain name I posted a job at Rentacoder.com looking for someone to write content for the new domain / site. I hired a woman working for home for about $65 and she wrote me about 20 articles based on the niche of the site.
Well it’s been 5 weeks since I put up the site and it has already broken even
Earnings From June 4th – July 20th 2008
Adsense Earnings: $38
Ebay Earnings:$167
This puts the site into profit in just 5 shorts weeks, from start to finish the project took me about 4 or 5 hours to complete. This process is so simple and quick to execute that you can easily launch ten or so of these types of sites in just one month. Doing so your multiplies your earnings and this is the basis for my Course Revenue Domains.
SeoPress Challenge #4) Complete Wordpress Install, Activate All Plugins, Make Changes As Need
Welcome to day 7 of your affiliate challenge, over the next week your goal will be to further familiarize yourself with the course content and to full tweak and optimize your wordpress installation before moving forward. If you have not watched all the core wordpress tutorial videos you will want to do that now. Furthermore you will have one week to make all the changes to your wordpress installation for your first site, this includes uploading the recommended plugins, activating each plugin and tweaking your wordpress options. I have included a detailed list below. Before we move on however ….I recommend you print off the individual blog posts here on netmarketing course.
Tip> Print Off Each Challenge Assignment Blog Post Here On Netmarketing Course
I buy a lot of ebooks and courses and I always print of the manuals and reports. Especially when I am learning, this way I can put the printed materials right in front of my face and follow along.
I also read these types of reports about twice in a row until I have the concept down cold. I do this even if much of the information is already familiar to me, it really helps me along though. I can use the printed pages and make lists, highlight important parts and what not.
I am finding that many of the Players have lots of questions and what were doing through the process of launching wordpress and using the seo tactics taught through the course.
I would advise you start a three ring binder, label it:
Print off each individual post and add it to your binder. This way you can check off to make sure your following along and your not forgetting anything.

Make Sure You Have Changed Your Own “Username” Login and Password
Make Sure You Have A List Of Keyword Phrases That Are Based On Your Sites Niche And Additional Keyword Phrases That Are Based On LSI Terms (you will use this keyword list in the next assignment to start adding additional content to your site)
Furthermore, Before Moving On Next Week When We Start To Add Content
Make sure your sites homepage has a 500 to 600 word article (must be unique content not found elsewhere online) that you wrote yourself or paid someone to write. Do not use PLR content or content already found online, this is key to your sites future success, you may also want to link out to other high ranking sites within your sites niche in the lower third of your homepage content. This will help to further build trust with your site and Google.
If You Finish This Weeks Assignment Early …
Feel free to start writing content articles from your list of keyword phrases, you will use this content next week as we begin to add additional “posts” to our sites.
Video # 3) Seo Press Affiliate Payload Challenge –
Add Only Unique Helpful Content Not Found Elsewhere Online
It is important to understand that Google’s number one priority when ranking websites is to provide helpful resources online for those that use their search engine. I can not stress enough just how important it is to use content not available online when creating your sites.
As per the video above can you imagine how difficult it would be if google did not filter out sites with duplicate content? You could very well end up finding the same darn content over and over again when trying to research a subject online. Not very helpful at all for sure, and if you were not able to find helpful results when searching Google you would probably NOT continue to use the Google search engine. If this were to happen Google’s business model would fail and they would go out of business.
This is why Google has such as hard stance on dup content and why you MUST add something of value, something that is unique and something that is not found else where online.
Video # 2) Seo Press Affiliate Payload Challenge (Adsense & Launching Your First Site)
Assignment number one for the Seo Press Challenge was to use the various keyword tools that I have outlined in course video #1, the goal was to identify twenty or so possible niche markets that you could create a site on. By using a bunch of free keyword tools you were able to get a better idea of each niche from daily search traffic, amount of advertisers paying for traffic via Adwords as well as identifying just how competitive each niche is.
Before moving on I wanted to touch based on monetizing a site using Adsense, especially when targeting what I call “gadget freaks”. The video above provides all the details you will need in regards to Adsense and monetization. With this in mind you should now choose your top niches and reserver those for later.
Pick the one niche your most passionate about and register a domain name based on the target keyword phrase.
Make sure to use one of the following domain extensions.
com
net
org
info
biz
us
Moving On To Assignment #2) Installing Wordpress & Site Launch
Your next step after registering your domain name will be to launch your site via wordpress and perform the following. You need to finish all the things listed below when you first launch your wordpress site. If you not sure you can get all this done then save it for another day when you can set aside four or five hours.
If your comfortable with wordpress this will take you a couple of hours to complete.
Switch your sites theme over to either one of the free Seo Press Formula themes.
Edit your sites “Reading” options to display a “static page” and choose “about”.
Next you will need to edit the about page, you will use your target keyword phrase in the wordpress title and you will then write a 600 word article (must be unique content) on that very page.
The last paragraph of your 600 word article should link out to between 4 and 10 high rankings sites for your niches target keyword phrase and relating phrases. Use Google LSI to link out to search phrases that related to your target terms. You can get more information on LSI by watching the course video about wordpress categories and LSI.
Step five you will come up with a list of at least 15 keyword phrases that people are search for within your niche. Use the same tactics and free keyword tools to develop this list.
Next you will need to “link out” use the wordpress “links” function to sites within your niche. Use the new keyword list you developed in step 5 and search for the very phrases you will target later. Link out to sites that rank in the top ten of Google for those very terms. You do not and should not use the exact search phrases that you will target later. Think of this as simply a list of quality sites within your sites theme or niche. I often like to mix in some links using what I call buy words such as buy, order, purchase, store, discount, used, sale, special, ect …
Install the plugin All In One Seo and make sure your site has a proper title tag and meta description. Again think about adding one or two buy words to your meta description.
When your finished with these tasks you can change the setting according to the Seo Press Formula videos. Setting such as permalinks, reading, writing, activating plugins, ect …
However I can not stress enough, do not move past the steps listed above.
Do NOT:
Only do what I have outlined above (this is the short version of what not to do)
Do not add adsense
Do not worry about pinglists
Do not add ebay links
Do not add any affiliate links
Do not post any articles to the site
Why is it so important to finish all these tasks in one sitting?
Because the goal is to establish trust with Google, when the google bot comes and visits your site your after a really good first impression. You never have a second chance at a solid first impression, so it is important to complete what is listed here.
Video #1) SeoPressFormula.com Affiliate Payload Challenge
Welcome to video number one of the SeoPressFormula.com 60 Day Affiliate Payload Challenge. It is my goal to provide tutorial instruction for you to use in conjunction with the screen capture videos and ebook portion of my course (SeoPressFormula.com). It is important to note that this system is based on creating search friendly sites that are focused and themed around commercial products and services online.
This course is more so about the “Seo”, rather than “Press” (search engine optimization focus rather than wordpress focus). Wordpress is simply the publishing platform that we use to create the sites. The true power of this system comes when using the tactics and strategies that are taught in chapters 3 through 9.
During the next several days your assignment is to research possible niche markets to enter. Watch course video #1 to get an idea of how you should use all the various free search tools to get in-depth data and information about each niche your thinking of entering. Below I have posted links to the various free search tools I use online. By checking various search terms online at all of the sites below you can get an idea how much traffic each niche will generate on a daily basis, how many Google advisers are paying for traffic (Adwords) and you can also get an idea for just how many sites are competing for the term you may create a site on.
Spend the next several days researching niches online, start out with at least twenty niches which you will then reduce down to your top thee niches. Later you will choose one or possible two of these niches and you will register a domain name based on your primary target term.
The next video will be posted in three to four days with your next assignment. If your interested in learning more about my Seo Press Formula niche site and wordpress course you can access this link for further information.
Having hosted hundreds of websites with dozens of web hosting companies over the years I have nothing but positive things to save about Hostmonster.com
Host Monster is the sister company of the more well known host BlueHost.com
Hostmonster offers the exact same server configuration, and add-ons such as MySql, Php, Fantastico, Cpanel and more. What is really amazing is the quality of the customer support, this is not always a priority for those just getting started with site creation. However when trouble hits being able to chat with someone on the phone 24 hours a day is a must. Not only does hostmonster.com offer 24 hour phone support but they provide their own support and they do a fine job.
Normally hostmonster.com offers their hosting plan at $6.95 a month (same price as bluehost.com) however when you use the link here on this site you will save $2 monthly. Note that all hosting plans are prepaid for a period of 12 or 24 months.
Google Nemesis is set to launch in the coming days, and were now just getting more detailed information about what to expect when this product launches this coming Tuesday.
Nemesis is the culmination of over eight months work by me, two full-time programmers, a handful of the world’s top wealth-builders… and – of course – 100,000 of my members. This isn’t an e-book. It isn’t even just a membership site. It’s basically me drawing a line in the sand and saying “winners on this side, everyone else is a victim”.
Now let’s talk specifics…
When we released Google Assassin last November, we included over a dozen different elements, tools and training systems. It was easily the most comprehensive affiliate training system ever released. But there was just one problem: some of the members were overwhelmed by it all.
They wanted a simple, copy-and-paste tool that did it all for them, all on one-screen. They wanted to make job-killing income, sure. But, they cried out for *simplicity* above all else. They wanted us to take our dozen different tools, an entire package which cost us over $40,000 and took us more than nine months to develop, and to condense it into a single stand-alone weapon of affiliate doom.
In short, they wanted the impossible – a simple, yet all-powerful, “click and profit” system.
Well, it’s taken me over eight months – and cost me a further $60,000… but today I can say that we have finally done it. Google Nemesis doesn’t just break the secret code of the elite affiliates. It improves on it – and then *automates* it.
More precisely, Nemesis addresses the top problems affiliates have in 2008:
If you’re feeling locked out of the Adwords game because you don’t have thousands to drop on campaigns, you’re in luck. Nemesis uses three “hidden indicators” to predict the hot keywords – meaning you can slash as much as 75% from your Adwords testing costs… so we can make quick and easy “Google raids – without having to raid the savings
Feeling overwhelmed? I don’t blame you… there are probably 100 different ways to make money as an affiliate, and working out the best method for you, and then profiting with it, can be tough. Which is why we have taken everyone’s favorite traffic source (Google Adwords), cut out the bloated costs and complex decision making,… and turned it into a “connect the dots” system.
No fancy jargon, no decision making. Just swipe from the shadow elite, follow my hidden indicators and siphon off an easy second income. Now, let’s be clear on something… you aren’t going to become a millionaire with my blueprint. My test-subjects have only been experiencing – at best – $400 days.
But then, my focus isn’t on the guys who want to maybe make millions… its all about the “little-guy” who wants to make a definite $100 today. It’s for the confused and frustrated affiliate who has a burning desire for freedom… but a lack of contacts and capital.
I have pulled out all the stops and have put together a fantasic bonus offer to compliment that Nemesis membership site and Adwords software tool. You can learn more about my Google Nemesis Bonus here.
