1. How to make $1000 a month online from scratch – Part 2
=========================================================
Jay Stockwell, who runs our Burleigh Heads office, continues his series on “How to make $1000 a month online from scratch”.
In Part 2, he describes the required mindset for online success.
If you’re not already earning at least $1000 a month online, for most of you the biggest hurdle you’ll have is your own mind. Jay’s guide provides a blueprint of practical steps to direct you towards success.
You may think you already have the right mindset and can safely skip Part 2, but you really should read it. It’s fundamentally important. It took me a long time to appreciate just how important this is. Don’t make the same mistake. There could be steps here that you’ve overlooked.
Most of the time, motivation is not the problem, Jay says. No, it’s the sneaky mental enemies that you have to watch out for. There are two in particular…

2. What affiliate case studies would you like to see?
=====================================================
Jay and I have been doing some brainstorming on ways to improve AssociatePrograms.com.
One of our ideas is to do more affiliate case studies, in which our team will experiment with different affiliate techniques and then tell you the results.
We probably all know that affiliate experiments and case studies are well worth doing, but they usually involve a lot of time and effort, so hardly anyone actually does them.
So, here’s your chance…
All you have to do is tell us what you’d like us to test. It’s as easy as that.
Tell us what affiliate marketing experiments you’d like to see us do.
We can’t promise we’ll do everything you suggest, but we’re very serious about this. We want to publish some really USEFUL case studies.
Take a few moments and tell us your ideas now.

3. Word Who?
============
Craig Cahill stumbled across a keyword tool he’d never heard of and is VERY impressed.
“Keyword research doesn’t get any easier than this,” he says.
The keyword research tool – well, actually, it’s a whole suite of 12 tools including patent-pending technology – is called WordZe.
If keyword research is important to you, you’ll want to check this out. If you’re new to keyword research, you’ll find this tool remarkably easy to understand and use.
I’ve been testing WordZe, too. I particularly like the “Dig” tool which can give you thousands of related keywords – you have to ignore some irrelevant results, but for any keyword you test with the Dig tool, you’ll probably find a large number of useful related phrases you won’t find using other keyword research tools.
Make sure you try the patent-pending “WordRank” tool. It’s a nifty way of testing how easy or difficult it will be to get a top 10 ranking for a particular keyword. It’s also very simple to use.
For all the details, see Craig’s Wordze Review.
