  • My Favorite New WP Theme: Thesis

    OK, so if you had told me a month ago that I would pay $164 for the Thesis WordPress Theme I would have just laughed. Why in the world would I PAY for Thesis when there are millions of themes for FREE!

    Well I have been thinking about my themes. Just about all of my personal web sites are on WordPress. Every time I start a web site, I start that never ending search for a theme. And just because it looks nice does not mean that it is SEO friendly. Nor does it mean that it will work in every browser. Especially after I get done messing with the code. Seems like I know just about enough to get into trouble!

    So I decided that I would get a theme that could be changed easily, was SEO friendly, and that could be made to look anyway that I wanted. The Thesis Theme started to pop up over and over again! Look at what I found on Google:

    Thesis Theme by DIY Themes
    Thesis Theme by DIY Themes

    I took the link from the bottom of the theme that you have to leave in if you get the Thesis Personal Option, and I put it in quotes. Ms Google came up with 2,450,000 results. Now most of these are people using the Thesis theme. But any way that you look at it, I think that it means a lot of people are using the Thesis Theme!

    So just what is it that I like about Thesis? Read my review.

    Easy to customize. You start by picking how many sidebars, and their placement. How wide are the columns. There are so many options to select from that I would be here all day going over them. No code knowledge required. Just work from the Thesis options screen in WordPress.

    SEO ready to the max. One less thing to worry about. There are many people designing WordPress themes that know absolutely nothing about coding for SEO. Your theme will always be ready with Thesis!

    Total control. You don’t have to settle for a sidebar on the left when you wanted it on the right just because that is the way the theme is. You decide how you want everything. And it is easy to change without ruining your site if you change your mind.

    No more messing with code. I constantly find myself wasting a lot of time trying to change things in the code and then fixing what I messed up. Or imagine spending hours fixing codes only to find out that IE7 doesn’t like what you did! Can be very frustrating.

    Works in all browsers. I have a theme that I love and it really works well with the niche that I use it for, but it doesn’t like Internet Explorer. Sometimes when you refresh the page the sidebars fly off into outer space. I have worked and worked on it and I can not figure out what the problem is. Those days are gone!

    Free upgrades. You have free lifetime upgrades with Thesis. And the best part is that Thesis is made for upgrading. You keep all of your changes and customizations separate from the core files so that they are not lost when you upgrade.

    Support. With so many people using the Thesis theme there are many, many avenues to get help. You can get on their busy forum or just type your question in your favorite search engine to find an answer. I can’t believe how fast I was set up and made my basic changes.

    Navigation bar. I am always messing with the code to get my navigation bar right. Theme designers think that you want to show all of your pages or categories up there. NOT! I want links, pages and whatever else strikes me. I want to decide. Thesis makes it so easy that a caveman could do it. (Sorry I couldn’t resist!)

    Learn one theme. If you work with just one theme you WILL eventually be an expert at it, no matter what your skill level is. No more wondering what you changed in a theme to make it react like you wanted it to.

    Bottom line. One of the favorite sayings at Thesis is “Do More, Code Less With Thesis”. That kind of sums it up. Stop wasting time and get Thesis! You will be glad that you did. I sure am.

     

  • John Hostler’s “Chunk Copy”, A Masterpiece!

    John Hostler's Chunk Copy

    As you know, I rarely get excited over things. I don’t promote everything that comes down the road, and I don’t promote things that I don’t use. I just use what I know works, and I work it.

    I just finished going through John Hostler’s Chunk Copy Course. Now John has to be the “King” of copy writers. So when I had a chance to get this, I jumped on it. And I did not regret it! That was the most beneficial 3 hours that I have ever spent on my computer!

    This course includes 3 hours of video with John actually showing you how to make a sales page, plus John actually redoing a PLR package sales page for better conversions. It also includes actual sales pages that you can use. The sales copy is ready for you to “fill in the blanks”. The “chunks” are already in place so that you will not miss anything. And he includes a “checklist” so that you can double check the letter when you are finished.

    Anyone can make copy that converts with this course. It is simple and laid out in an easy to learn fashion. (I sure was tempted to say that it is “so easy a caveman could do it”, but i did not want to go there!)

    I really don’t always have the time or patience to sit through 3 hours of videos! But I know how important copy writing is to sales. You can have all of the traffic that you want, but if it doesn’t convert it isn’t worth diddly. This is a case of “time well spent”!

    This should be selling for $300, but it is only $47!!!! (And if you are quick enough you may even be able to get a discount, if you click on a certain “cute little smile” on the sales page)  😉 Here is the link: John Hostler’s Chunk Copy Course . This should definitely be in your tool box!

    Now that is a bargain. But if you are strapped for cash and you need some copy writing help contact me at: Contact Us and I will make a deal to insure that you can get a copy, because it is that important to your success!

  • JayKay Bak of Unselfish Marketers has lost his mind!

    A quote from JayKay Bak of Unselfish Marketers on the anniversary of the greatest membership site on the planet:

    “You ain’t seen nothing yet!”

    And he was not kidding. One of the many things that you receive are at least 2 products every other day. He keeps it on the even days so you know when it is coming. And if there are two odd days in a row, such as the 31 st and the 1 st, you get a bonus day!

    Well I was looking at the products that I had access to for the month of July. I quickly counted them and there were about 74. Give or take a couple. Now if you do the math on that, it comes out to almost 5 products every other day! It is overwhelming!

    And remember that these products are but one small part of the membership. You get memberships to other places for free. Autoresponders, hosting, access to Delavo and much, much more. EVERYTHING that you need all in one place.

    And it is not like those squirrely memberships where it disappears after the end of the month. You have access to everything everyday.  Use the search feature to find things if you are working on a project. Review sites, in there. Music, in there. PLR, in there. Niche products, in there. Graphics, in there. Anything else that you need, in there. He spends over $2,500.00 per month on products for us.

    As a matter of fact some of the items that you get come from other membership sites where you would pay a monthly fee for just a couple of products. Crazy, isn’t it? It is the combined power of the members plus the super Viking at the helm!

    Ever been tempted by an email? Come on now, we all are. What if you got an email and saw a product that you would really like to have, but you resisted. Then a day or 2 later it popped up in JayKay’s vault. What a feeling! Nothing quite like it. Doesn’t show up? Well shoot an email to JayKay and if the rights allow it to be added to a membership site, HE WILL BUY IT FOR YOU (and everyone else at The Unselfish Marketer site)!

    Whoops, almost forgot something. JayKay has an affiliate program. Get 2 members and you will be getting yours for free! And it is a closed door affiliate program. Only members have access to it. So if you see someone promoting it, they are a happy member! Not just someone who picked a product to promote.

    So right now it costs $47 per month. What? I know that you have seen monthly membership sites that charge $97 or more for only a couple of things per month. This is almost too good to be true! Sign up for $47. If you don’t like it you can get a refund. It will probably take you about 10 minutes to download $47 worth of products. Don’t wait until it gets to $67 per month (and it will). Get it now. Here is the link: Unselfish Marketers.


  • JayKay Bak’s Unselfish Marketer, with Bonus!

    I read this statement on the internet and I laughed. Why? Because there is no bonus needed when you team up with the Unselfish Marketer! Everything you need is right there.

    I like to offer bonuses just as much as the next guy, but I kid you not there is nothing I can offer except some advice. And I will give you that up front!

    DO NOT join JayKay Bak’s Unselfish Marketer if you are easily distracted or overwhelmed. Because you will never get anything done! There are way too many distractions. I have been a member for 2 years and I have still not seen it all.

    Here is a Readers Digest version of part of the offerings:

    • Every other day there are at least 2 new products added to the vault. I have seen as many as 5 or 6. So at the very least you will have a chance to get 60 new products! You do not have to download them. They will still be there and easy to find when you need them. If you do download them, put them in a folder that is well marked right away!
    • Requests. See something for sale that you want? If it has rights that include putting it in a membership site, JayKay will buy it for you! And sometimes he buys things and sells them for a dollar, if that is OK. Some great deals in there!
    • Autoresponders. Here they are. Ready to use.
    • Hosting. It’s in there too.
    • JVManager 1 or 2, Fantasos. In there. Run your business like the big dogs!
    • Keywords. Yup. In there.
    • Content. You won’t believe it. And I am not talking about that worn out content that you get all over the internet. This is fresh!
    • Forum. Talk to the other members. Ask questions or just find out what they are doing.
    • Memberships. Lots and lots. You get monthly presell review sites for ClickBank products. Monthly premade and ready to upload videos. Software. Just about anything that you could want.

    OK. Are you overwhelmed yet? I have just barely scratched the surface! The membership is $47 per month. And if you get in and decide to stay you can change to a yearly and get 3 months for free. No brainer!

    Free Membership. Where do I sign up! The Unselfish Marketer has an affiliate program. Sign up 2 people and you will be getting your membership for free. This is getting better by the minute.

    There is another thing that is very different. As soon as you join you have access to EVERYTHING. None of that stuff where it disappears each month. Well, there are a couple of exceptions. I think that the keywords and content might only be available for the month.

    Here is my favorite. I start a project and I need something. Maybe a bonus, or a product to sell. Maybe some graphics. It is in the vault waiting for me! There is a search feature that makes it easy to find things! Download them as you need them!

    So for less than the price of a nice dinner out, you can have everything that you need! It would take you about 3 or 4 minutes to download $47 worth of products. LOL!

    So take a look at the sales page for even more information:

    JayKay Bak’s Unselfish Marketer.

    And if you see anyone offering you a bonus, let me know. Because I would love to know what they could possibly come up with!

  • How To Find a Niche Market Using Niche Market Software

    Finding a niche to market can be a big deal, or a lot of fun. Depends on how you do it.

    The old way: Open your keyword research tool, and find some keywords. Hop on over to Google and check out the competition. Check for affiliate programs and or products. See if you can find a domain name that works. WOW, no wonder it is such a chore. I get tired just thinking about it!

    OK, the new way: Open up Micro Niche Finder and hit “The Easy Button”. Just kidding, there is no “Easy Button”. But there should be. Because it makes it FAST and EASY. It does all of the work for you.

    There are tons of features and it is always being upgraded. Now unlike some software programs, this is not a problem. Because when you buy Micro Niche Finder, you get free upgrades for life!

    Right now Micro Niche Finder is selling for a low one time payment of $67.00. Version 4 is to be released this week or next. The price will go to $97.00. Before the end of the year version 5 will be released. James is talking about starting a monthly charge with that version. Ouch! I would hate that. Seems like everything is going to a monthly charge. Get it before this happens!

    UPDATE: The price has gone to $97! You still get lifetime upgrades, support, and the awesome bonuses. Even at $97 it is still a great deal! Nothing can compare to the value that you get with Micro Niche Finder. There have been people trying to copy, but this is still the “King”!!!!

    And yes, there are bonuses included! It is getting sweeter by the minute!

    It seems like no matter what I am working on, Micro Niche Finder is always open. What is more important than keyword research and checking out the competition? Do yourself a favor and checkout the sales page. This is one program that will never gather dust!!!!

    Go here: Micro Niche Finder , while you can still get the best deal! You have nothing to lose. James has an 8 week no hassle 100% guarantee. Never be at a loss for niches or keywords again!

    Micro Niche Finder

    This is the most used software program on my computer and it will be yours as well. It’s fast and easy. It will make you money! Get it today.

  • JayKay Bak, The Unselfish Marketer Does It Again!!!

    JayKay Bak, The Unselfish Marketer, promised, after walking away with THREE awards for the Internet Marketing Star of the Year, that we haven’t seen anything yet!

    And he has been very busy keeping that promise. The vault has been filling up with tons of high quality products. And JayKay does not put junk in the vault. You will not find any of that lame stuff that a lot of marketers are giving away!

    He just had a major increase in the hosting package. We now have 3 GBs of space and up to 1,000 domains. Bandwith? No problem. As you grow you get more at the same cost: Zero!

    I have always said that this is The Total Package, and as time goes on, it only gets better! Everything you need in one place. And when you join you have access to EVERYTHING that is already in there! It’s almost unbelievable.

    So do yourself a favor. Spend some real time looking around. I guarantee that you will like what you see, and that you will not find a better bargain ANYWHERE!!!!!

    Here’s that link: The Unselfish Marketer.

  • Don’t Buy Another Product Until You Read This!

    I only belong to 2 memberships. Most of them are

    rip offs. One that I belong to is closed to new

    members. The other is getting ready to have a

    price increase. These few spots left at the

    $29.00 price will not last long. Then it goes up

    to $47.

    The site already shows the new price at

    http://UnselfishMarketer.com.  But if you go to my

    special link at

    http://BobWilloughby.com/Likes/UnselfishMarketer

    you can still get the old price (if you are fast

    enough!).

    Right now the value of the products is almost

    $9,000.00. If you are smart you will lock

    yourself in at the $29.00 price. Try it for a

    month. You will get more than $29.00 worth of

    products in a month. So you really have nothing

    to lose and everything to gain.

    The autoresponder and web hosting are worth more

    than the monthly cost. Everything else is gravy!

    If you are spending any money at all each month.

    If you see things that you would like to have,

    but do not want to spend the money on, this is

    really a nobrainer. Do yourself a favor and study

    this web site carefully. You will not believe

    what you are getting. You will have a hard time

    even looking at everything!

    Remember to use this link to purchase, or you

    will pay the new price!

  • The Very Best Turbo Big Bang Bonus!

    Unless you have been asleep for the past few weeks, I guess that you have heard of John Delavera’s “Turbo Big Bang”! And if you have been considering getting it, then naturally you would shop around to see who had the best bonus!

    Want to see it now?

    http://BobWilloughby.com/Likes/TurboBigBangBonus

    I have looked around at some of the other bonuses. Seems like some people are cleaning their hard drives. Look at them very carefully. You may already have some of their offerings on your hard drive!

    I don’t usually get involved with these promotion’s, but my friend JayKay Bak came out with an amazing bonus that I had to tell you about!

    If you buy through his link you will get one years access to the award winning membership site: “Unselfish Marketer”. This is THE best membership for anyone working on line! Right now the “Vault” has spent $21,440 on products and services for it’s members. That is over 22GB of products! And you will have access to all of them, plus 12 more months at $2,100 per month equals $25,200 more! These are not inflated numbers. These are actual prices and JayKay keeps open records so that you can see how much is spent.

    So if you are considering getting the Turbo Big Bang, and you should unless you are already wildly successful, then this is by far the best bonus being offered. Hosting, AutoResponders, and hosted JV Manager2 Fantasos are part of your membership at Unselfish Marketers and they compliment the Turbo Big Bang like nothing else! So shop around and you will be back. But don’t wait too long. This is only good until May 24.

    See it at:

    http://BobWilloughby.com/Likes/TurboBigBangBonus

    If you are not considering the Turbo Big Bang, them maybe a membership at Unselfish Marketer would be beneficial to you. Check it out at http://BobWilloughby.com/Likes/UnselfishMarketer

    One other thing about the Unselfish Marketer. JayKay does not buy JUNK! It will be things that you can use.

    Enjoy the day!

  • The Results Are In! Unselfish Marketer Rules!!!!

    JayKay BakThe results are in for the Internet Marketing Stars of the Year. JayKay Bak of Unselfish Marketers won 3 awards. Male marketer, membership products and membership services! Here is the web site with the results: http://internetmarketingstaroftheyear.com .

    I have been a member of Unselfish Marketer for about almost a year now. It is like having Christmas every other day. I sit around and wait to see what JayKay is giving away on those days! It usually runs from 2 to 4 or 5 products at a time! Lots of PLR. And the Vault at Unselfish Marketers is LOADED. Whenever I have a project and need something, I just go to the vault. I can’t even begin to explain all of the benefits of membership. You will have to see for yourself! Go to: http://BobWilloughby.com/Likes/UnselfishMarketer .

    Another good thing about being a member of Unselfish Marketer is that you get to try out all of the latest software, without buying! So if I see something that I want, I usually wait until it pops up on JayKay’s site.

    And this is just the beginning. After winning the 3 awards JayKay said “You ain’t seen nothing yet”! I am just glad that I am a part of it. Membership will be cutoff once it hits 1000. So jump on board while you still can.

    I told you that I was testing PDF software, right before Christmas. I did not have much luck with it. It crashed on me about 7 or 8 times. I wrote to a friend who was promoting it, and asked if they had had any problems, and they said no. So, back I went. Tried some different things and got the same results. Software crashed in the middle of a project.

    So the bottom line is that some of you might like and use eWriterpro, but it is not for me. Just not worth all of the problems. So I will stick with and recommend to you: Open Office. See it at: http://www.openoffice.org/ , and leave your wallet in your pocket. It is open source and it is yours for the asking. And it has tons of features. I can’t think of anything else that I would want it to do!

    So sign up for your Unselfish Marketer membership at: http://BobWilloughby.com/Likes/UnselfishMarketer and download your PDF software from Open Office. Get some PLR products, make them yours, turn them into PDF’s, and get busy!

    Enjoy the day!

  • Happy Thanksgiving!

    I would like to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving, if
    you celebrate. If not, enjoy the day!

    Our son just returned home from Iraq. The
    homecoming was quite amazing and made us think of
    all of the things that we have to be thankful
    for. The thing that made me think the most was a
    young Marine holding his 2 month old baby that he
    had not seen. He would not let her go. He was so
    proud. I was lucky enough to be in the delivery
    room for both of my children’s births. That is
    quite a miracle to witness.

    The people at Techsmith are giving you something
    to be thankful for as well! They are giving away
    Camtasia Studio 3. This is a great marketing
    effort to get you to buy the newer version at a
    discounted price. But you do not have to buy
    anything! For you it is a no-brainer. If you don’t
    have it, you need it. And there is no better way
    to get it.

    Just go to:
    http://download.techsmith.com/camtasiastudio/enu/312/camtasiaf.exe
    and download the program. Then go to:
    http://www.techsmith.com/camtasia/pcpls.asp and
    get your key to unlock the program.

    Camtasia 3 will always be a powerful piece of
    software that you will get a lot of use from,
    even if you never upgrade.

    So do not delay. Take a couple of minutes and get
    this while the getting is good.

    Enjoy the day!
    Bob
