Growing a Conscience

I have a long and sordid history with modern snake oil salesmen. They prey on my greed and impatience and I part with my money far too easily and too often. I may have developed a bit of resistance to their hypnotic gaze, but I still sometimes feel that familiar attraction. Every reformed junkie knows what this feels like. It’s like when you take Sudafed for a head cold, but later you feel that slight tingling sensation at the base of your neck, the slight sting up in your sinuses as the pseudoephedrine hydrochloride goes to work. You remember all of the pleasures of meth and none of the negatives.

The same seems to apply to the con and scam artists of the internet. Recently a paid SEO/Internet Marketing forum I am a member of had an interesting discussion about the new feature article posted over on The Verge. Someone linked to it and asked for people’s opinions. The first several responses agreed with the author while mentioning that they were uncomfortable that the author had lumped *all* internet marketers in with the true scum. But then several people chimed in to defend some of the major personalities attacked in the article! Even the original poster defended them to some extent.

I made a feeble attempt to point out what I thought was obvious, but it was to no avail and I ended my participation in that thread with a lame “we’ll just have to agree to disagree” type of post.

Today someone in that same forum linked to a recent article from Leo Dimilo on his newer Drunk On Life blog - Confessions of an Internet Marketer. It’s a great read, and it confirmed much of my recent thinking about my future direction in online marketing. It starts with a question:

Q. What’s the most dangerous thing a marketer can do?

A. Grow a Conscience

And that is the main problem I have with the hucksters mentioned in the Scamworld piece. Even those that my fellow internet marketers were defending don’t seem to me to have much of a conscience. Some of this can legitimately be seen as a grey area. After all, aren’t all voluntary transactions between consenting adults technically both legal and amoral?

As I was reading and thinking about the topic, I was reminded of a time when I myself would have defended this type of person. I understand the reasoning. You buy an overpriced, hyped product from someone, you feel the need to justify it. If said product has helped you to make some money, often that is justification enough. Just don’t develop a conscience about it and start thinking about the cycle you are in. Don’t dwell on the fact that you are purchasing a product that, for example, shows you how to make money by teaching you to how to sell their product to other people, or teaches you how to separate the naive and desperate from their money. This type of ‘circle-jerk’ cyclical Ponzi scheme of marketing is the modus operandi of most of those exposed in Scamworld.

And then I remembered her. That lady. The one I took advantage of just to line my pockets with cash.

Of course I don’t remember her name, or really even her face. That might personalize things a bit too much. But under the guise of ‘helping’ her I instead took advantage of her desperation and naivety, pocketing a wad of cash in the process.

The product line I had bought into here was Ron LeGrand’s ‘Cash Flow Generator’ which was basically a few binders and CD’s with information and forms all about making a fortune in real estate. Most of the information was outdated, but some was still relevant and worked. We went all in. I believe that by the time all was said and done, we had attended two seminars (we flew to one in Nashville), bought two or three packages of info and ‘invested’ around $9,000.

The techniques were all ‘grey-hat.’ We pushed the edges of morality and legality. And after many stops and starts, I unfortunately got a bite. I contacted a woman who was selling her home. As it turns out, she had gone through a divorce and was being drained by the mortgage payments and just wanted out. The house needed some work. By this time I had begun partnering with a couple of remodelers and used their main contractor to give me an estimate. He agreed to buy the home for a certain price.

The home owner at some point had told me what she owed on the home, and I made an offer that would give her enough room to clear maybe $1000 after fees. I used some techniques common in the sales industry when I made my offer. Specifically, I told her the amount, then I shut up. She spoke first, voicing her hopes that she would be able to make more on the house. I said something like “Yeah, I know” and nodded my head. I waited her out. Eventually, she agreed and signed my form, an assignment of contract. She assigned to me the right to the home, but I would then turn around and assign the contract to my contractor. This is what is referred to as ‘flipping’ a home.

A couple of weeks later all of the paperwork was in place and I went to the title company to sign my part. My title agent told me the funds should clear by the next day. When I went back to pick up my check I got a bit of a lecture. The title agent, a wife of one of my real estate breakfast buddies, scolded me a bit and told me it was a good thing she liked me. As it turns out, my contractor had assigned *his* contract to another investor that he knew, who in turn assigned it to yet another person. Five different parties had come in and signed, with the final person taking ownership. I didn’t care. I walked away with a check for $14,000 in my pocket.

At this point in the tale, I could (and did) tell people that my investment in Ron Legrand’s Cash Flow Generator was worth it, and that I had more than made my money back on it. His real estate investment schemes could then be seen as ‘legitimate.’ Technically true, but that didn’t stop Ron from attempting to get more money out of me. I was a bit surprised one day to get a postcard from him, telling me about a way to make even *more* money than real estate. It was easy. All you have to do is … (wait for it) …

Host a real estate seminar!

I should have seen the irony. He was telling me that he made more money by selling me a seminar package than he did by actually following the instructions in the seminar package. And the same can be said for probably 75% of all informational products out there, especially the high-dollar items.

Unfortunately the irony was lost on me, and my profitable status didn’t last long. The contractor in that deal is the same contractor I had become involved with while doing some partnership remodeling deals with a couple of other real estate investors. These guys weren’t snake oil salesmen, they were better than that — straight up old-school con men. By the time all was said and done they had caused me to deplete my meager retirement fund and any other profits I made elsewhere, max out a couple of lines of credit and eventually forced me into filing a half-million dollar Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

That karma sure is a bitch!

It was a painful learning experience, but I would like to think that I won’t have to learn it all over again. It is a major reason why I find similar types of pitch men to be distasteful. And yes, when it comes to internet marketing I would put Frank Kern, Anthony Morrisson, Mike Filsaime, John Paul Raygoza and Jeremy Johnson all in that same bucket with Ron Legrand, Carlton Sheets, and Robert Kiyosaki and all the other real estate ‘gurus’ out there. Snake oil.

The age-old debate here often comes down to motivation. One side points out that if these people were making such good money in real estate or internet marketing, why would they need to sell a ‘system’ to others? Wouldn’t they be creating competition? The other side often points out that these people made legitimate money on their own and are now helping others as an extra stream of income, something that is smart. They also assert that there is plenty of room for competition without hurting one’s own market.

I beg to differ - most of these scammers started making money by selling their system on how to make money. Ron Legrand’s background is in working the skeeball tent at carnivals. Kiyosaki is harder to pin down, but John T. Reed wrote quite a lengthy expose on him.

So yes, as someone who has been working the system in Internet Marketing, I have a problem. My conscience is waking up, and it’s getting harder and harder to justify flirting with the edge of the grey. Coincidentally I have been working on doing something somewhat like a normal business — creating and selling my own product! For now, mainly some short memoirs to be sold on Amazon. Unlike most internet marketing products, these will be in the NON-fiction category.

The Many Reasons Why I’m Leaving Triberr

Several months ago I wrote about How I Found Triberr, and Why I’m Begging for an Invitation. We’re getting near the six-month mark so I thought I would follow up on my Triberr experiment. The bottom line: not worth it, I’m leaving Triberr.

When I first joined Triberr, I had some rather simple goals in mind. I wanted to increase both my reach and my traffic from Twitter. And in theory, Triberr should do both. In practice, no, not so much.

The Ultimate Keyword Academy Review - Part 5 - The Forums

This is Part 5 of a Five-Part Series - The Ultimate Keyword Academy Review. You can read the other parts here:

In Part 5 I will discuss The Keyword Academy forums.

Many people are initially attracted to The Keyword Academy for the ebook, or the keyword and backlink tools. But one thing that really sets them apart is the forum. Here you have instant access to hundreds of your fellow internet marketers. You can ask questions and get a wide variety of possible solutions. Sometimes this is a bit confusing for newbies, but it sure beats figuring everything out on your own!

This is a screenshot of the actual forums:

Like most forums, this one has its share of attitude. The SNR (signal-to-noise-ratio) is a bit high sometimes, mainly due to having so many new internet marketers on board. However, it is manageable. And there is one feature on this forum I haven’t seen anywhere else:

Verified income

Individual forum members can send in screenshots to The Keyword Academy to verify income and will receive a corresponding badge that they can display next to their avatar. Some start small, just as a form of visual encouragement. Others use a generic badge which indicates income verification without a specific dollar amount. Others throw it up there, loud and proud. More than one member has a $15,000 badge. Oh, and that is monthly income!

This can be useful. For example, if you see two conflicting pieces of advice, but one member has a large income badge, it could be that that person knows a little bit more about how things work. It’s not a foolproof system, but at least it gives you some idea. And it also shows you that people are, in fact, earning amazing incomes on the internet. Considering how many scam artists there are out there, this important!

Recent Improvements

Up until recently, the format of the forum was very frustrating. But it is much better now! You can browse at will, either looking at the latest overall posts or through specific sub-forums. You can also search, of course. And one new feature is the ability to vote on articles. Each day the most popular articles are put in a special ‘best-of’ section.

Now, having said all of that, most of the members will be quick to tell you that you shouldn’t be spending all day in the forums! There is work to do, after all. But this is one of many important pieces of The Keyword Academy.

That wraps up my fifth and final part of my Ultimate Keyword Academy Review. I hope you were informed, and I hope you can now make an informed decision about utilizing this great service. But, once again, do not just take my word for it - try it out for yourself, for FREE, for thirty days!

For those of you who managed to make it all the way through all five parts of this Ultimate Keyword Academy Review, thanks! I hope you liked it, and I hope you feel like you are a much more educated consumer. Please let me know your thoughts, just comment below!

The Ultimate Keyword Academy Review - Part 4 - Postrunner

This is Part 4 of a Five-Part Series - The Ultimate Keyword Academy Review. You can read the other parts here:

In Part 1 I discussed the basics and the key concept of the keyword. In Part 2 I gave you a rundown on the Members Area. In Part 3 I discussed the amazing keyword tool called Niche Refinery. In Part 4 I will discuss Postrunner.

As you did in to the educational material at The Keyword Academy you will hear the term ‘backlink’ a lot. Backlinks are simply links from other web sites pointing to your own. The quality and quantity of those links are one of the many factors that search engines use in determining which search results should be shown to the searcher, and in what order.

In an ideal world, you would just write articles and blog posts and people would find your site and link to it. This does happen, of course, but if you want nothing but pure, organic and natural links you are going to be waiting a long time before you can make any money off of your site. All sorts of techniques have been developed to automate this process, and search engines frown on many of them. Postrunner is an attempt to automate the process without sacrificing quality.

The genius of Postrunner is its use of Wordpress plugins. All you have to do is install one plugin and your site is in the system! After that, you have two tasks to perform:

Write articles and submit them to other Postrunner sites using the Postrunner dashboard;
Review and post incoming Postrunner articles from your own site dashboard.

That’s it! Eventually all participants will have hundreds of backlinks and traffic will rise.

Here is what the Postrunner site looks like:

Here is what your posts page will look like with the Postrunner plugin installed:

The system is nice and clean and fairly easy to understand. Of course you can find all of the details on The Keyword Academy site.

As a matter of fact, you can do that now! I mean, why wait for Part 5 of my review? You can join for the first thirty days for free! So go ahead and sign up now and you can come back here and read my Part 5 in a few days.

The Ultimate Keyword Academy Review - Part 3 - Niche Refinery

This is Part 3 of a Five-Part Series - The Ultimate Keyword Academy Review. You can read the other parts here:

In Part 1 I discussed the basics and the key concept of the keyword. In Part 2 I gave you a rundown on the Members Area. In Part 3 I will discuss the amazing keyword tool called Niche Refinery.

One thing we need to discuss about this tool right away is the fact that it exists at all! It’s been around for awhile, but for reasons that are unclear it fell into a state of disrepair and was discontinued for much of 2011. But now it’s back, all new and improved, and yet you might never know this except for the fact that I am telling you about it right now. Mark made an announcement about the return of this tool in the forums, but it is still not mentioned anywhere in the Members Area! Keep this in mind when you sign up - not every feature of The Keyword Academy membership is thoroughly documented. Some things you see don’t work any more, and others do but are somewhat hidden. It pays to explore the forums and the blog.

Not only is The Niche Refinery itself obscure, but so are the instructions! I’ll provide some screenshots as we go along here, but possibly the only real tutorial is the January 30 webinar, which you can find under “2012 Webinar Downloads” in the right-hand column on the site.

Part of the core curriculum (ebook) on The Keyword Academy will show you how to use Google’s own Keyword tool. In addition, there are three other tools within Niche Refinery for brainstorming new keywords. One uses Google Auto Suggest for regular keywords, the other two are for products: one using Google’s Auto Suggest, the other using Amazon. Once you have followed those instructions and saved the data to your hard drive you can import this into Niche Refinery. From there, you can further analyze, group, sort and filter them.

Here is the main screen:

Here are the Keyword brainstorming tools:

Here is how you start up a new keyword pool:

This is the initial results for ‘white socks’:

Here are five of those keywords after analysis, sorted by KEI:

You can see that Niche Refinery is fairly powerful. It’s a big timesaver, and it is a great way for beginners to get their feet wet without getting too bogged down in the literally millions of potential keyword combinations out there. Let Niche Refinery do the heavy lifting for you!

You can wait for Part 4 if you want, but since The Keyword Academy is free for thirty days, why not go ahead and sign up now? I won’t mind, really.

Just click here and start your journey today!

The Ultimate Keyword Academy Review - Part 2 - The Members Area

This is Part 2 of a Five-Part Series - The Ultimate Keyword Academy Review. You can read the other parts here:

In Part 1 I discussed the basics and the key concept of the keyword. In Part 2 I will give you a rundown on the Members Area.

Let’s start off with what the Members Area looks like, and we’ll go from there…

As you can tell, it is a very nice layout: clean, easy to navigate. No fluff, just information. Let’s walk through where each of these links and buttons will take you:

The Welcome page

This page starts out with a bold challenge:

You Are Officially on the Path to $1,000 per Month

What? Yes, they are serious. Hundreds have done just that using The Keyword Academy. They claim it’s the one reason their site exists, to get you to $1,000 per month online. Then they list their support staff and lesson development team.

Core Lessons

This is where it starts to get serious. This is where you dig in and learn. Mark and Court have been calling this an eBook. I think it’s more like a series of web pages. Either way, it’s well-organized and easy to navigate. Here is the Table of Contents:

What it Takes to Succeed with Our Method

Part I: Keyword Discovery and Organization

Chapter 1: Gotta Get Those Keywords
Chapter 2: Keyword Brainstorming
Chapter 3: Refine Keyword Groups and Practice Post Titles

Part II: Writing Content for Your Website

Chapter 4: Turning Your Post Titles into Quick Outlines
Chapter 5: Quick Outlines Become Full Posts

Part III: Setting Up Your Website

Lesson 1: Choosing and Registering a Domain
Lesson 2: Signing up for Web Hosting
Lesson 3: Installing Wordpress
Lesson 4: Choosing and Installing a Theme
Lesson 4A: Making a Custom Header

Part IV: Promoting Your Website

Lesson 2: Pitching Guest Posts
Optional: How to Promote Your Website with Twitter

Part V: Monetization

Lesson 1: Monetizing Your Website – The Basics
Optional: Monetization with E-Commerce
Optional: Monetization with Ebooks

Now do you see why they offer you thirty days for free? That is a lot of amazing information. It’s a blueprint, of sorts. Your blueprint for making money online. Overwhelmed yet? Hey, we’re just getting started! Maybe you need to stop reading this for a second and take your vitamins. This is a serious workout for your brain! OK, on to the next big button in The Members Area…

Webinars

You’ve probably heard this saying before, but it is especially true for the world of Internet Marketing:

The only constant is change

It was true when Diogenes wrote it almost 2000 years ago (quoting Heraclitus) and it’s still true today. And this means that the techniques and strategies that might have worked two years ago might not work so well today. It’s bad enough dealing with technology shifts, but internet software and trends change even faster. It is one more reason why The Keyword Academy is such a great place to get started. Instead of buying a CD, book or ebook from five years ago and wasting a lot of time and money, you can get instant feedback about what is working right now! Mark hosts live webinars once a week. One week is a Q&A, the next is on a specific topic. Here are the webinar archives for early 2012:

January 30: Niche Refinery Discussion and Q & A
January 23: BigEnoughBusiness.com plus special guest, Courtney Tuttle
January 16: Interview with Allyn Hane
January 9: Two Tips for Writing Persuasive Copy
January 2: Question and Answer Session

As you can see, 2012 has started off with a bang! And every month is like that. Careful, your brain might explode — with ideas…

You also get access to the archives of all the webinars from the entire year of 2011! That is a LOT of valuable information there. I think that, if I am counting correctly, there are over 30 hours of webinars available to members right now. 30 hours, 30 days free — hey, that lines up nicely! You should probably go ahead and just SIGN UP NOW and get started, right? Did I mention the FREE part? :)

Support

This is especially important when you are new to all of this. The support page is more than just a contact form. There is a complete list of support email addresses and other contact information covering all of the following scenarios:

Need help with your account?
TKA or one of its programs are down?
Questions about the Core Videos or Program Content?
Answers to common support issues

Affiliates

One of the ways that you can monetize web sites and make money online is to sign up as an affiliate. I won’t go into detail about how affiliate programs work, but it’s basically just like being a salesman. Salesmen make commissions. That’s it! That’s all an affiliate is. The Keyword Academy also has an affiliate program, and I’m a member. And even with my poor, pathetic even silly little reviews I’ve done for The Keyword Academy in the past, I still had three different people click, join and then stay for a second month which earned me enough commissions to pay for my own membership fee! Did you catch that part? It’s already free for thirty days, but if you refer three people a month it can be free forever! How cool is that?

There are two more big buttons on the Members Area page, but I will be covering them in future posts.

Is Dr. John F. Demartini a Fraud?

It has been a long, LONG time since I first wrote about Dr. John Demartini. I mean, a LONG time - almost seven years now! And yet now, somehow, many years after I forgot all about him, he is haunting me. Every time I look at my Google Analytics for this web site, there he is. Eventually it made me wonder: “Why are all these people still searching the internet for this guy?” I also wondered what the search terms they were using might reveal about him. It seems that some people have their doubts. Here are the top 10 Dr. John Demartini search terms that people used to find my site recently:

john demartini fraud
john demartini scam
dr john demartini con
dr demartini scam
demartini scam
dr demartini quack
demartini fraud
john f demartini fraud
dr john demartini fraud

Unfortunately, after a little bit of research, it looks like most people aren’t particularly suspicious. They are firmly in the grasp of the ‘self-help guru’ mindset, always and ever seeking out the next article, the next CD or DVD, the next seminar or conference. Which reminds me a lot of myself back when I was a fundamentalist Christian, running around to buy from or see the likes of wackos like these guys:

Mike Warnke was really big in the 80’s, making the rounds as both a comedian and as an authority on Satanism. His events were great for getting stubborn church kids to show up. Unfortunately, pretty much his entire ‘testimony’ was absolutely made up. In the meantime he ran through millions of dollars and four wives. Nice.

ABC’s 20/20 ran a now infamous expose on Robert Tilton. He is still at it, on wife number three I believe and still scamming little old ladies out of their money. Like John F. Demartini, they had something to sell. Unlike him, they have seen their share of public disgrace. Some have risen from the ashes of their former demise, after having repackaged their products and promos. Others have faded into obscurity.

As I mentioned in my former blog post, I first heard of Dr. Demartini from the now defunct “Life Stories Radio” podcast. And based on the general content of that podcast, I really can’t imagine why I would have listened to it to begin with! It was the golden boom era of podcasts, so perhaps I was sampling…

Regardless, if you haven’t already done so, go read my previous assessment of him and then come back here for the exciting finale!

So why are so many people searching for John Demartini and whether or not he is a fraud, scam artist, con artist or quack? Well, evidently it may have something to do with a little movie that came out in 2006, The Secret (Extended Edition). Wow, what a self-help mega-promotion that was! Unfortunately, some of the first victims weren’t the gullible millions buying this crap, but the film’s director and internet campaign manager. Lawsuits and countersuits have been filed. They learned what I myself learned a long time ago - when you mix trust (i.e., faith) with money, things go bad quickly. Oh, and one more thing: If it isn’t in writing (a contract) it doesn’t exist!

One thing about Dr John F. Demartini that I noted in my previous post stands out to me now. I didn’t fully grasp it before, but his bio, as he tells it, bears many marks of The Hero’s Journey as originally described by Joseph Campbell in 1949. It formed the basis for the plotline in the Star Wars and Matrix movies. See if you can see the elements here from the bio on his Facebook page: (items in parentheses are from the older article at WalkerInternational.com which is no longer on their web site)

Ordinary World:

Hand and leg braces (Turned-in foot and hand)

Dyslexia and speech impediment (learning disability)

(dunce-cap (in the 60’s?) )

Call to adventure:

Left school and headed for Hawaii at 14! (Hitch-hiked from Texas to California - at the age of 15)

Encouraged by wise old man:

(Befriended by a bum in El Paso who gave him words of wisdom and guidance)

Passes first threshold/encounters tests and helpers:

(Flew to Hawaii, lived on tent at beach, surfed, tried hallucinogenics)

Endures the supreme ordeal:

Strychnine poisoning at 17 (Near-death experience, saved by a local woman)

Seizes the sword:

Found mentor Paul Bragg who guided him into a meditation in which he was given his purpose in life!

Isn’t it neat when your life is like a movie? No, I mean seriously, just like a movie script! As in scripted. Plus, it’s kinda hard to refute.

Speaking of refutation, and his mentor Paul Bragg, I find it interesting that he chose Bragg to emulate. While I have nothing beyond a gut instinct to base this on, I find it highly convenient that his mentor, who gave him his implicit blessing, his mantle if you will, in the form of meditation guidance, died himself just a few years after said incident. He passed the torch on, as Demartini tells it, and who are we to say otherwise? Hard to check facts with a corpse. Unfortunately, Bragg leaves a checkered legacy. Even his claimed birth date and even state of birth have been documented to be otherwise! Dr. Demartini should take note! This is, after all, the age of the internet, and if even Bragg’s past lies can come back to haunt him long after his death, Demartini has much more to worry about. Unless, of course, all of his biography is accurate…

The Ultimate Keyword Academy Review - Part 1 - An Introduction

Have you ever heard the old saying “There’s more than one way to skin a cat.” ? Wow, now that I think about it, that’s rather harsh, isn’t it? Hopefully it was never meant literally, and Mark Twain used it so that has to count for something.

Wait, where was I? Oh, yeah. Well, just like that cat saying, there’s definitely more than one way to make money online. The tough part is to figure out which way will work for you. And the really tough part is to do so without wasting a few years and tons of money at the same time!

And that brings us to The Keyword Academy. There are several things you need help with in order to start making money online, and The Keyword Academy can help you with several of them. Things such as:

A systematic approach
A repeatable approach
An understanding of the basics
A roadmap of actionable steps
Focus
Progress Measurement
Automated systems to save time and money

Those are the things that The Keyword Academy excels at, and they are the reason why I strongly recommend them for anyone who is just beginning to explore online income methods. But if you’re anything like me, a random recommendation from some guy on the internet just isn’t going to cut it for you, is it? No, you’re going to want details. Even the fact that this wonderful service is FREE for the first 30 days isn’t going to persuade some of you. I know, you have commitment issues. I understand!

And that’s why I’m going to give you a detailed review of The Keyword Academy.

In future articles I will tell you what you get for your monthly fee, and I will include screenshots! Yes, you can see the outlines and tables of contents and internal documentation! All for free, all right here on my blog. This introduction is part 1 of my new five-part series on The Keyword Academy.

There are two main things I want to cover here in Part 1. The first is really the core of The Keyword Academy. As a matter of fact, it’s right there in the name!

KEYWORD

If you’re like me, you probably never heard of this before, and yet it is integral to the internet. It didn’t take too long before the internet was so large that it was difficult to find things using just directories and bookmarks. Thus, the search engine was born. A ton of internet search engine companies and technologies have come and gone with three now left standing in the English-speaking world: Google, Yahoo and Bing.

But all of them center on one thing: keywords.

In reality, that’s just a fancy way of saying “stuff I search for.” If you go to Google.com to find the nearest pizza place you would probably type ‘pizza’ and then maybe a brand name or city name. Those are keywords. If the pizza place has a web site and allows you to place orders there, they probably would like to know how you found them, which keywords you used. And, of course, Google will gladly sell you ad space which is, again, based on keywords. And in order to make money online, you need to know how to use those same keywords so that when someone searches for them your web site shows up. The fact is, if you don’t show up on the first page, you’re probably not going to get any clicks or traffic.

So how do you get on the first page? Man, if only there were someplace to learn how to do this — like, you know, an ACADEMY or something….

:)

Now before I end this Introduction, let me just emphasize one other point. Even though I am about to spend untold hours writing up parts 2-5 in this extensive Keyword Academy review, I won’t be offended in any way if you decide to skip them and sign up for your FREE 30-DAY TRIAL right now. You’ll have THIRTY DAYS to explore, read, learn, download, watch webinars and test out the Niche Refinery and Postrunner tools. If you’re anxious to get started, then by all means, go ahead and jump on in. I won’t mind, really! You can just click the box below and sign up right now, for FREE!

Once you are there, you will be greeted with an entire page of information about The Keyword Academy. If that isn’t enough for you, come on back over here and finish reading the last four parts of my The Ultimate Keyword Academy Review series. I’ll still be here. :)
