The Absolute Beginner's Guide to Internet Wealth: Everything You Need to Know to Create Your Portable Empire Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book is a lot of white space, double-line-spaced written text, and 1-page chapters. This is essentially a pump and dump book that pumps the websites of all his associates so that you can dump your money into their coffers. There are much better options out there. Pass this one up and spend your money wisely elsewhere.

Search Engine Optimization: Your Visual Blueprint for Effective Internet Marketing Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As the owner of a web design firm that offers a growing bundle of SEO services, I have spent thousands of dollars staying up-to-date with the latest strategies for search engine optimization.
But despite the big-name conferences I've attended, this $30 book is the best investment I've made in SEO.
The author does a phenomenal job of covering every phase of the process. In fact, I hit Amazon this evening, because I'm buying 4 more copies that will be distributed to every part of my team... 1 for our lead web programmer, 1 for the people doing keyword research, 1 for our copywriter and 1 for the people who focus on link building strategies. There's stuff in here from which everybody can benefit.
I also appreciate how it's organized. If you like text - there's a section in each chapter with text. If you prefer pictures, the second part of each chapter is chock full of diagrams and images that would allow somebody to learn a lot with minimal reading.
I highly recommend this book.

Make Money Online: Roadmap of a Dot Com Mogul Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If it weren't for my familiarity with John Chow, I might have passed on this book based on my skepticism of the "make money online" theme of the title. Although you can download the ebook for free from his site, I was impressed by the comments on his blog and the reviews here that I decided to give the paperback a chance. This has become one of my top books of 2010.
I've been blogging since 2004, with modest success. While I knew quite a bit about blogging and WordPress, I managed to pick up some tips and tricks in the first six chapters. Chapter 7 covered what I felt that I needed help the most - how to write online content that attracts and keeps readers. I also learned a lot from Chapters 8 through 13 and will refer to them once I nail down the principles in the seventh chapter.
This book is such an easy read that I plowed through it this morning, highlighting almost every page. If you have just launched blog (or are planning to) and want a solid blueprint on how to make it successful, Make Money Online is a must-read. If you've been blogging for 6+ months and find yourself struggling to build your readership and/or earn a full-time living, Make Money Online is a must-read.

Mobile Marketing: Finding Your Customers No Matter Where They Are Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As a marketer for over twenty years, keeping up with all of the technological marketing medium opportunities that have emerged and continue to evolve isn't as easy as it once was. Well-focused, detailed and informative books on a specific growing opportunity, written by an expert, definitely help. This one delivers well on this front. Here's the more specific upsides and potential downsides I see, depending on your expertise and needs.
KEY UPSIDES:
- It's a thorough and well-organized in-depth look across the spectrum of mobile marketing.
There isn't anything I can think of this book should have included that it didn't. It starts with a history and overview of the strengths and complexities of Mobile Marketing and a detailed look at how to target and track your MM audience.
Throughout the book there are great case studies. After looking into each of the different approaches that one might take with their mobile marketing efforts. It goes on to explore the international MM landscape and privacy/spam issues. There's also an appendix of supplier resources, text symbols and a glossary of frequently used terms.
- It's a practical, tactical "how to guide" too.
For each type of potential mobile marketing campaign - including advertising, promotions, application creation, e-commerce, search engine optimization and integrating it with mass media- you'll get a break down of the various mobile marketing tactics available, considerations to help you decide if that kind of effort is right for your business needs, and the best practices, instructions and resources to help you make it happen.
- You recieve free access to the on-line version of the book, w/ purchase of the hard copy.
It's a good reference that's only a click away.
POTENTIAL DOWNSIDES:
- It's not going to be current for long.
One of the great things about this book is that it includes recent research and has added things like a chapter specifically dedicated to iPhone marketing - not included in many other books. But, w/ the recent launch of the iPad - there's already a new chapter waiting to be made. Some of the more specific info is just going to get outdated extremely quickly.
- It'll be easier to understand and more useful to marketers who are already fairly savvy on Internet Marketing and have worked with larger scale campaigns.
Mobile marketing opportunities, to a great extent, parallel Internet marketing ones. So, in many cases the book is highlighting the differences between the two, and it can and does get very technical. MM is also very resource intensive. This makes it more difficult currently for smaller organizations to use as efficiently - and the book really focuses on larger scale initiatives.
BOTTOM LINE: A well-written, thorough and practical guide, as well as reference book. For as long as it remains current, I highly recommend it to marketers that want a greater understanding of the potential Mobile Marketing opportunities available to their brands.

Internet Marketing: Strategy, Implementation and Practice (4th Edition) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book is required for an internet marketing class I am taking. I find it difficult to read. The authors are throwing so much information into each chapter that it is overwhelming and hard to absorb. I also feel that it does not follow a logical path, meaning that they reference other chapters and concepts not yet touched on almost constantly. Very often the other chapters referenced come later in the book so you haven't read them yet if you are going page/chapter order. I would not recommend this book for a student of e-marketing. Perhaps, if you already have experience in this field, you may find it useful, but as a teaching tool I feel it falls short.

The Complete Guide to Affiliate Marketing on the Web: How to Use and Profit from Affiliate Marketing Programs Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book is a must have for anyone who seriously wants or is toying with the idea of Affiliate Marketing. Brown takes you through the entire process from getting started to choosing a software application right for you to how to market and promote your site. He explains the ins and outs of Affiliate Marketing on the Web in language anyone can understand, even if you're not smarter than a fifth grader.
Do you know the difference between residual and flashflood traffic techniques? How about pay per click as opposed to pay per lead? I didn't. However, after reading this book I certainly have been educated in the lingo associated with Affiliate Marketing. Brown also manages to take the guess work out of Google.
You don't have to be a web designer to apply the techniques, but if you're somewhat computer savvy it's beneficial. Brown doesn't present a get rich quick scheme, but instead delivers a sure fire way to get more traffic to your site and more money in your pocket. He doesn't lead you down the garden path and his book will definitely help you travel the road to success.

Affiliate Millions: Make a Fortune using Search Marketing on Google and Beyond Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got through this entire book in under an hour. Unless you're looking for the most basic of introductions to online affiliate marketing and pay-per-click advertising, save your money. This book is so basic it can't even be called a primer. Fully half the book is used to describe how to sign up with affiliate programs and create an Adwords account. This book offers no guidance on researching profitable niches or keywords, doesn't even mention an "ad portfolio" or describe why you may (or may not) want to manage your ads with a portfolio approach, and gives the most simplistic formulas for measuring campaign performance. The most sophisticated advice it gives can be summed up in two sentences: "Don't set your daily budget too high; you may lose a lot of money quickly." and "Make sure your campaigns are bringing in more money than you are spending." The final chapter is called "Working At Home: Legal and Tax Requirements." It touches on "starting your own business" topics so lightly that the chapter would have been better left out.

How to Make Money Online with eBay, Yahoo, and Google Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was disappointed in this book because it made me believe that it would be about Yahoo! and Google equally with eBay. However, this book was all about eBay with a tiny sprinkling of Yahoo! and Google here and there -- certainly not enough to include Yahoo! and Google in the title of the book. The book has 29 chapters. It doesn't stop talking about eBay until Chapter 21 then resumes its eBay discussion in Chapter 29.
The book should have been called "eBay 101" or "eBay for Not-So-Dumb Dummies." It does have good information for a complete eBay newbie but I would recommend other books for the non-eBay savvy newcomer like Adam Ginsberg's book: How to Buy, Sell, and Profit on eBay or eBay Powerseller Secrets by Debra and Brad Schepp. In fact, those two books I just mentioned alone should be all you need to get started if you want to make money on eBay.
Pass on this book. It's a rip off. The title is not appropriate and designed to deceive people into believing that the book will give you a strong online selling strategy with a successful mix of eBay, Yahoo!, and Google when that isn't the case. It's all about eBay with a few words dropped in here and there about Yahoo! and Google.

ProBlogger: Secrets for Blogging Your Way to a Six-Figure Income Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I picked upProBlogger: Secrets for Blogging Your Way to a Six-Figure Income after blogging for a litle over two years. I've been doing it as a hobby because I love writing and photography, but admittedly haven't thought much about monetizing it.
For me, this book served as a good introduction to how to make money from blogging, both directly and indirectly. However, its focus is a little more broad. It coves everything from choosing a topic to write about, to setting up your blog, to making money. It mixes information and examples with exercises that challenge the reader to apply what they are talking about and use it to inform their own blog.
Because of its broad focus, I think it would be the most useful to someone who is brand new to blogging. I still found it very informative as someone who has been blogging for awhile. However, I did find myself skimming through the pages on setting up your blog because mine has long been set up. However, I thought their instructions were very straight foward and clear and definitely would have been helpful to me if I had stumbled upon them when first starting my blog. They also provide some great tips on deciding what to write about and choosing a domain name.
The content specific to monitization is good but should really be used as a primer. As others have mentioned, much of this content can be found on the ProBlogger blog or elsewhere on the internet. However, the beauty of this book is that it is condensed and all available in one place. No reason to go digging. That said, it is really just the tip of the iceberg so if you are looking for one book to cover everything you will wind up disapointed. I still don't believe I know everything about monitization, nor did I expect to when reading this, and expect to still read more on SEO as a follow up. There are also no secret, magic strategies here. If you are looking for a get rich quick solution this is not it.
Overall, I enjoyed this book and it met my expectations. It was a great first read on how to monetize my blog, but I'm still planning on reading other resources to continue to get smart.

The Six-Figure Second Income: How To Start and Grow A Successful Online Business Without Quitting Your Day Job Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I enjoyed reading this book. I purchased it from Amazon because Jim Cockrum endorsed it in his newsletter (which is how I heard of it). The book basically outlines step by step how to set up an information product business online. The first chapter explains why this business model is ideal for most people, due to low overhead and the almost bottomless demand for information products online. Chapter 2 suggests ways to build a profitable infoproduct quickly. I think they should have explained the "profitable" side of things a bit more explicitly. For example, while many people might have collections of recipes at home they think they could sell online, most people searching for recipes online are searching for FREE information, not an ebook they have to pay for. Ideally, you should create an infoproduct for a market where infoproducts are already selling well. Scanning the categories of products on Clickbank.com is a good way to get ideas for products of your own. If you aren't sure what to create, think about the products that people are already selling on Clickbank, and then come up with a complementary or supplemental product that would be a logical "upsell" to the audience for those products. This is the most important decision you will make, and determines if your product will sell, more than any other factor. Beyond that the book outlines the different content formats you can choose to make, how to set up a website, get traffic and turn your "prospects into buyers." I learned the most from chapter 6, and I think that chapter alone is worth the price of this book. While it doesn't explicitly teach you how to write a sales letter it tells you some important things to consider when setting up your sales page. I think a few sales letter examples and a simple template would have enhanced this chapter a lot, especially for beginners who are new to information marketing online. A separate chapter on outsourcing would have been helpful also. My thoughts are you should probably write rough drafts of your ebook and sales page and then outsource the rewrites to someone more experienced to "clean them up" for you. I prefer vWorker for all my outsourcing, since I have the option to pay for deliverables only, rather than for time. It seems to result in faster turnaround, and since the funds are escrowed, I don't have to release them until I am completely happy with the end product. For beginners, I also recommend using e-Junkie rather than Clickbank or 1shoppingcart. With e-junkie you get payment processing, but they also create expiring download links automatically and I believe they also host your actual product files, so you don't have to create any web pages yourself other than just the sales letter page, with the order button connecting to your e-junkie checkout. That saves time, and also eliminates some of the learning curve with having to create web pages and learning to FTP your files to a download page, as well as not having to learn to install a script to create expiring download links yourself. If you're a beginner and you don't know much about web design you should probably try out Blinkweb's hosting - you get a free domain name and a wysiwyg editor that includes simple sales page templates that are super easy to use, and are designed specifically for information marketers. All you have to do at that point is upload an image of an "add to cart" button and link it to your e-junkie account for checkout. e-Junkie does the rest. If you don't like paying $14.99 a month for hosting and you don't mind the learning curve, then google "Chris Farrell" and sign up for his free "Success Grenade" videos that walk you through web page setup step by step. You'll learn how to FTP your web site, create download and squeeze pages, upload files to your site's hosting account and more. I think Blinkweb + e-Junkie would save you more time and let you get your business up and running a lot faster, but if you don't mind a few months extra work and study, you can learn to do it the "hard way" through Chris Farrell's video series. Overall, "The Six-Figure Second Income" has a lot of good ideas and recommendations, even though I disagree with some of the recommendations in chapter 4, since they aren't very beginner-friendly, and can stymie someone for months before they can get an actual product online. Even if you start with only Blinkweb for hosting/web design, e-Junkie for shopping cart/payment processing, and the basic Aweber account for managing your customer list, it will cost under $40 a month to get going, and takes a lot of the technical stuff off your plate.

Rod took all his years of experience since 1968 and put it into a selfhelp know how manual, How To Start Your Network Marketing, Modern Party Plan, or Web Affiliate Company. The book is written in common business terms so that it is easy to understand, (especially with pictures and diagrams) while the precise logic (such as MLM pay plans) is by the experienced M.B.A. Rod Cook.

Successful Affiliate Marketing Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I had done some research on Affiliate Marketing prior to reading this book. I found this book the most light weight I had read to date. It would only be of some limited value if you had not read anything previously. You definetly do not get the detailed information you need to begin affiliate marketing.

Make a Fortune Promoting Other People's Stuff Online: How Affiliate Marketing Can Make You Rich Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I don't know anyone making a fortune with affiliate marketing, but I do believe it is possible, which is why I bought this book. If you are an affiliate marketer, you might find much of this book repetitive. But, if you are not making a fortune and want to, then this book is for you.
Most of us know it takes a llloooooonnnnnngggg time to make any money from most affiliate programs, and Gardner doesn't tell you you can get rich overnight. I found her information to be true to what everyone else is saying--build a good website (or websites) with great content, find good paying companies to promote and run your affiliate business like---a business. What a concept! (I find many people throw up a few pages of content and a couple of links and then start waiting for the money. As if. . .)
I like this book because there are actual "how-to's" in here--how to set up tracking tools and spreadsheets, how and when to create content, how to promote your business, how to get your website up, when to expand your business, what to do when an affiliate doesn't pay, how to find affiliates, and much more.
If you are looking for get rich quick scams, look somewhere else. If you are looking for a guide to having your own successful affiliate business, get this book.

Get Out While You Can: Escape The Rat Race Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I recently bought a Kindle copy of this book and just wanted to say just how much I enjoyed it. The basic premise was exactly what I have been thinking over the past couple of years and I set out a couple of years ago to teach myself all the skills I needed to make multiple income streams on the internet. I'm making some progress but I'd like to make more and faster. I have a few websites which don't make too much but I'm learning all the time.
If you really want a book that really provokes your thought processes then this is the one to do it.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Money From Anywhere Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)First off, this is a 164+ page paperback - of which 35 are blank. Each sentence has a line space between them, so, this is a 23c per page Quick read and puts a whole new spin on the title -- yes you really can Make Money From Anywhere! There's nothing new in here and at times reads like one of those "pitch" web pages that goes on and on an on... I've been in Marketing for many years and was finally sucked into buying the book with promises of Free Stuff via multiple web links and promises of more Free Stuff -- you know the phrases "A $1900 Value for only 27c" -- stay away from it -- save your $29 + $11.98 shipping and take 3 friends to see "The Kings Speech" -- you'll learn more about determination and focus in those 2 hours, and have something positive to talk about afterwards.

Internet Marketing Start to Finish: Drive measurable, repeatable online sales with search marketing, usability, CRM, and analytics (Que Biz-Tech) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have worked in the silo of public relations (P.R.), which used to be separate from marketing.
In many respects that separation is archaic. P.R. and marketing now overlap and co-exist online within
social media websites and communities. I received a review copy of this book and, as non-technical
P.R. professional, I found this book an eye-opener.
Authors Catherine Juon, Dunrie Greiling and Catherine Buerkle are coaches experienced
in dealing with novice and experienced marketers, and they address their readers' concerns
systematically and with clarity.
The authors write in plain, accessible English in order to help readers judge the maturity
of their current online marketing plan. They offer solid methodology for measuring the value of a
program in order to improve it. They also detail simple ways to get significant improvements.
If you're interested in developing and/or refining an Internet marketing plan, Internet Marketing,
Start to Finish provides deep, personal coaching on how to weave together the elements
of a successful web-based plan.

This book is designed to help your company view Internet marketing strategically, bring together marketing, sales and operations functions that were previously separate and siloed, and systematically capture and apply data to drive dramatic improvements in performance. Drawing on their extensive experience with enterprise clients, Catherine Juon and Dunrie Greiling show you how to implement a more iterative, measurable, and repeatable approach to Internet marketing, gain better information about which online strategies are working best, deliver better-qualified leads to sales, build an "online sales engine" to track every customer relationship from the very outset - and, above all, grow profits. Rather than covering individual Internet marketing tools in isolation, they show you how to integrate the full strategic toolkit: social media, pay-per-click, Google AdWords, SEO, site usability, Google Analytics, audience analysis, CRM, lead generation, site navigation optimization, and more. You'll learn how to use metrics and data analysis far more effectively to inform adjustments in both long-term strategy and short-term tactics. Along the way, the authors offer you new solutions to challenges discussed in no other book - including the challenges of marketing, advertising, and pricing when Google flattens all channels and geographies into a single gigantic marketplace.
