WordPress Backup – You Cannot Afford To Be Without It

Posted on January 24, 2012 by Wizzer in Wordpress Plugins

Everyone who knows me will know how passionate I am about making sure all of my sites and information is always backed-up properly AND regularly.

 

VERY IMPORTANT – URGENT INFORMATION

Special LIVE training – FREE to you

Thursday, January 26th, 2012 at 2PM Eastern

I know a guy that got paid $100 for just 5  minutes “work” – when he was only 17 and 18…

1. 100 dollars would come in,
2. He’d go click, click, click, and
3. He was done…

He simply installed PHP scripts (basically WordPress plugins) and charged 100 dollars a time. He could do this because he knew and applied “this” one secret…

The technology didn’t previously exist for this but now he has released his Backup plugin and will be showing people live on Thursday how they too can earn $100 for 5 minutes work (and keep their own sites safe using the same process). All with a few clicks and no technical knowledge required.

In fact I can’t think of anyone who hasn’t had a big problem at some stage when their computer has crashed or maybe the power supply or mother board has failed and they’ve lost data they were working on. And regardless of how good WordPress is there are always ocassions when something goes wrong, maybe an incompatible plugin or an upgrade that doesn’t quite go to plan and the site sems to vanish.

It’s happened to me and it WILL happen to you one day. If it hasn’t happened to you yet count yourself very lucky. You are extremely fortunate as you can do something now to protect yourself BEFORE you get caught out.

After you recover from the sick feeling in your stomach you start to work out what you need to do to get your site live again. I promise you, this can take hours of searching around for the solution. If you’ve ever suffered from WordPress “white screen” you’ll know how difficult it is to find the solution. People everywhere tell you they’ve had the problem but very few have any answers.

But what if you knew you had a perfect back-up of your site that could be reinstated with a simple click or two?

Ever wanted to move from one server to another? I know a number of our members at Blogging Beginners have wanted to do this as they were unhappy with the service offered by their hosting company. With Backup Creator you can move your whole site – with all plugins and settings AND you don’t need to have any technical knowledge to do it.

I’m in the process of revamping and updating this site – Wizzersays – and this brilliant  WordPress Backup plugin will ensure I don’t have any problems – even if something goes wrong.

I’ve tried other back up solutions in the past but they mainly help with the wordpress databases and not the whole site.

Don’t leave it to chance, whether you follow this recommendation or not, please ensure you regularly back-up your sites – the feeling you get in the pit of your stomach when something goes wrong and you realise you don’t have a recent back-up is just plain horrible.

Now I know the weather in UK is changeable but this change within a spin round the green is beyond a joke!

It doesn’t matter what the weather’s doing he doesn’t seem to want to stop anyway!

All I need to do is get him to stop, sort out his credit card payment acceptance, figure out how to get ice cream out of the PC screen and the Computer Ice Cream Delivery service will be born!

So Clickbank Hasn’t Paid You Yet

Posted on June 30, 2010 by Wizzer in affiliate programs

Many people start their online business as affiliates. And many of those people use a Clickbank product initially. And many of those people have never been paid by Clickbank even though they’ve made a sale!

I’ve often been asked “why hasn’t Clickbank paid me yet even though I’ve made several sales”

Doing some research online today it appears that something like 90% of all Clickbank affiliates are officially dormant!

That in itself is not good for them because any commissions earned but not yet paid by Clickbank are getting eroded by Clickbank fees. You can read more about that at Why You May Never Make Anything From Clickbank

Now let me briefly explain the main problem most new affiliates encounter…

Clickbank rules (read small print) state that before they will issue their first cheque for commissions generated payment has to be made by 5 different credit cards. That means that you have to have generated 5 sales as an absolute minimum before you are paid.

By default, there is a threshold of $100, which means that until that amount has been generated a cheque will not be released, even if 5 different cards have been used. That one is easy to overcome – the threshold can be over-ridden but you need to be careful not to go too low since Clickbank deduct $2.50 from each payment they make.

Now there is a tidy way to get the first 5 sales. For a free report – no opt-in required – and there is no catch just take a look at Clickbank for Newbies. There’s some really useful information in their too and a way to make a few of your own affiliate sales.

If you have some funds with Clickbank right now that haven’t been released this could be the answer.

Epic Traffic Systems Free Training

Posted on June 7, 2010 by Wizzer in traffic, Video

The Epic Traffic Systems  training (or should I say pre-launch fest?) has just started.

Now, I cannot profess to knowing anything about the product these guys are promoting but having just watched the first video I have to say if you are looking for more traffic to your site (and if you’re not let me know what you are doing to generate what you need) then the free giveaways will be well worth giving out your email address for.

Of course, you’ll get follow ups etc (you may actually be interested in the Epic Traffic System) but the purpose of giving you this link (yes it is an affiliate link) is that you’ll benefit from the free videos that teach about a load of different ways of driving traffic to your sites

Starting this week, Joey Smith, Jon Shugart, and Keith Baxter will be giving you so much information on how to drive traffic to your site that you will be stunned…

Not only are they giving you the training, but they have some KILLER software and WordPress plugins that they are giving you as well.

They’ll be covering social media, media buying and total search engine domination!

In the first videoJoey Smith will share with you how to make money TODAY using the power of Twitter.

Regular readers will know that I’m not really convinced about Twitter – just a whole bunch of people building lists of followers who they can promote to. With everyone doing the same thing but not reading anything anybody else Twitters about I don’t see how it can add to your income. Or at least I didn’t until now!

So if you’re looking for some epic traffic to your sites take a look at the Epic Traffic system videos as soon as possible.

Affliate Marketers Crippled By Taxes

Posted on March 15, 2010 by Wizzer in affiliate programs

Read the headlines “Affiliate Marketers Crippled By Taxes”.

More hype in the internet marketing arena or a warning of what is lurking just around the corner?

Cash poor authorities will of course be looking to increase revenues as much as possible and it seems that affiliate marketers – both those running affiliate programs and the affiliates themselves are being targeted by several US States.

I ran across this artcle “Beware the affiliate nexus tax” at Quansite and think you should read it and take note if you are involved in affiliate marketing in any way.

Seemingly the idea behind the tax is to remove the need to be physically present in a particular state before you are taxed. So, wherever you run your business from you could be taxed if you sell to people in the state affect by the tax. That’s regardless of whether you just put up a link and have no idea of who has bought through the link.

Can you see the difficulties here?

Potentially there will be businesses running affiliate programs who simply decide they don’t want to take the risk and simply close down their affiliate programs. Where would that leave you if you whole business is built around promoting affiliate products?

I strongly recommend you do your own research into this if you think you’ll be affected. I’m not in the US so whether I will be impacted I don’t know. But I’m sure not just going to sit back and wait and see!
