Post subject: Brad Fallon's book "Stomping the Search Engines"
|
|
|
Has anyone purchased Brad Fallon's book "Stomping the Search Engines?"
He state's that he made $156,037.00 in one month (after having his site up for 6 months) using the stuff in his book?
I would like to get some feedback, especially before I fork out $299.99 for his book?
Thanks in advance for everyone's input. |

| It's not a book, it is 9 cds of recorded information about SEO, and one CD of valuable resources. Not a bad buy, considering you get a link from a high PR site for free plus a few bonuses. If the money is an issue get Sean Burns ebook "Rankings Revealed". |

I have been using Brad's course very effectively. Here is an example I recently posted in my newsletter:
- - -
Let me give you a concrete example ... the hardest page to optimize on most sites is the home page. I have chosen, based on very careful keyword research, to focus my Auction Genius homepage on the keywords, “how to sell on eBay”. But it's a really tough job because that page is written for people not search engines. You won't find that particular keyword phrase plastered all over that page.
Contrast that page with one that IS written for the search engines:
http://auction-genius-course.com
http://auction-genius-course.com/ebay-sunbonnet-sue.shtml
See the difference? The keyword phrase, “ebay sunbonnet sue” is all over the place. This is written exclusively for search engines and it obviously succeeds very well because it has high placement in AOL, MSN, Overture (for free), Teoma, Yahoo and Google.
Until Brad's course, my home page was absolutely NOWHERE. However, I first started learning his techniques in only July and my results are very encouraging. Type in the phrase “how to sell on eBay”:
* Yahoo, page 2, #23 and #26, out of 7,940,000 competing pages
* MSN: twice on page 2, out of 1,566,827 competing pages
Here's an interesting tidbit: Sunday I was in Yahoo and MSN only once – now only a few days later, I have two listings on each.
Am I content with these results? No, but it's still pretty impressive. Think about it – on Yahoo, I am 23th out of 8+ million pages! My home page couldn't even be found in the search engines until I started doing what Brad taught me to do. And I'm just getting started.
- - -
What I like best about Brad's course is that he has PROVEN that he knows what he's doing.
I wrote more about the Stomper here:
http://auction-genius-course.com/auction/stomp-the-search-engines.shtml
I read speculation yesterday that PPC advertising might be in trouble, because 70% of people surveyed said that they paid no attention to the paid ads. If this is true, 'organic' search will become more and more important. _________________ Sydney Johnston

Can't say I agree with that. If true, Adwords/Adsense wouldn't be as successful as it is. Believe me, PPC is going nowhere. But, I'll take all the free traffic I can get!  |

It's my understanding that SE are constantly evolving. Does the coarse provide updates for customers about SE change....perhaps a newsletter or members only forum? |

Hi Essery,
Like this great forum about affiliate marketing, there are also some great forums abou seo. Just by hanging around, lurking, reading, asking and learning you get a lot of information for free. I daily read

Yes, and 10 million people claim they were at Woodstock, and nobody voted for Nixon.
It's probably more like 70% of the people couldn't identify what were paid ads. _________________ Have you seen this bonus offer? |

>>>I'm a complette SEO newbie. Can Brad Fallon's SEO coarse be used by a novice who knows nothing about SEO? <<<
Three weeks ago I knew absolutely nothing about SEO, I received several emails spamming me about another course, Traffic secrets with a price tag around 1K.
Well the spam worked lol, got me interested so I started searching for information about Traffic secrets much as you are doing.
I came across some posts about Stomping The Search Engines and noted that Traffic Secrets seemed to be more about Pay per click while Stomping took a more broader approach.
So I went for Stomping and after listening to each CD many times, (I always have one in my car) I am now an expert on SEO LOL, well I'm confident I have enough knowledge to be able to get my website well up in the search engines.
I haven't implemented anything yet but will be starting a new site from scratch this week.
Value for money, in my case as a newbe, ABSOLUTELY.
>>>70% of people surveyed said that they paid no attention to the paid ads.<<<
Depends who they survey I guess, the public at large or only people with an internet connection
Whichever way I believe it, I have been doing a bit of casual research about this and have been asking people, if they had any idea what those boxes were about.
95% had no idea, these are the average internet users, just because I know what they are about doesn't mean anyone else does.
I'm on the net every day, it's how I make a living. The average person with a connection is only online infrequently. They tend to know a lot less than we think.

To Sydney Johnston....
Just a comment about Chris Malta and his Light Bulk Wholesale Directory.
I find it Ironic that you have this statement on your website
>>>They have often mourned the ridiculous auctions on eBay that fleece unwary buyers, eager to profit from eBay, into wasting their money on useless lists.<<<
Because that's exactly what I think of Chris Malta's directory, another useless list/scam, I bought it 4 months ago and have approached 20/30 companies on the lists, both wholesalers and drop shippers, only one replied.
I am in Australia and many of the companies on the list say they won't do business with companies outside the US, thats okay, at least they are upfront about it but I didn't bother approaching those companies, only the ones that said they will ship worldwide.
I approached Chris about the lack of response and all I received back from him was "keep trying".
As I said, it's absolutely useless.
I find it really ironic that this book has been released, Chris Malta and Sydney Johnston's book, Product Sourcing Scams Revealed.
I have noticed on various forums his name cropping up more frequently with the same concerns.
Michael. |

Yes the search engines are constantly changing the algorithms, however the main methodology of good seo won't change in a hurry. |

Having good titles, headings and prominent keywords is what SEO is all about. You sure don't need to pay $299 for this information. Unless the book advocates ridiculous black hat methods such as hidden text, spamming etc as many SEO companies seem to do. _________________ Jack Mitchell

Maybe not but that is only a part of Stomping, even then it is all there....a step by step process to follow, listing all the resources as you need them.... invaluable to someone new to this.
>>>Unless the book advocates ridiculous black hat methods such as hidden text, spamming etc as many SEO companies seem to do.<<<
No there's nothing like that in there, quite the opposite actually.
Stomping dispels a lot of myths....there are lot's of excellent strategy's to build links, which is as important as titles, headings etc, which incidentally is all there..... excellent keyword section....the section listing resources is probably worth the cost alone. They have all been tried and proven saving heaps of time trying to find value for money.
Content building and ways to generate it.....how to use blogs and RSS feeds...using press releases to gain links, I could go on and on.
For someone new to search engine optimization it is definitely worth having, for someone who knows lots about SEO it is still well worth the price.
Not sure what rank the bonus link is but I am assuming a PR 5/6 which is worth at least half the of the cost.

Hmm, maybe you need to invest in the course yourself if you actually believe this. |
