The Next Generation Of Viral PDF Software

Viral PDF Personal Edition

The next generation in viral pdf software has been recently launched.

Previously creating PDF files for distribution to your affiliates was handled by two main programs the main one bring the ‘PDF Signer’ which is for use by the owners of the software and the ‘Brander’ which you would distribute to your affiliates.

The previous version Viral PDF took some time to understand the principle of creating branded links for others to rebrand by inserting their own usernames into links so that they would earn a commission from sales of each branded hyperlink.
Now Sean Kelly, the new owner, has taken over the business and has plans for some revolutionary changes!

The first being the design and structure of the Viral PDF software is much easier to use. Plus a security measure ensuring that owners distributing the full version software are authenticated copies by checking the owner’s verification link. Anyway unless you think you can cheat the system that shouldn’t be a problem for bone fide registered users.

I had purchased the original software a while back in 2003 and have my updated Personal Edition.
I am extremely impressed with how simple it is to brand hyperlinks without needing to print out the long and tedious instruction manual as before.

Each time I would set up new files I would have to refer back to the manual to double check that I was following the correct procedure.

With Viral PDF Personal Edition the task of producing branded PDF’s has been radically simplified.

Phew, what a relief!

There is nothing worse than handing out file to affiliates without having to provide extensive instructions which may confuse and deter them from going ahead with rebranding the file.

I can foresee more people being at ease with the new simple brander and look forward to more ingenuous features for updates in the foreseeable future.

If you’ve been put off by the old version and want a PDF branding tool that it quick and easy to manages then I highly recommend Sean’s product for all of your future branded PDF’s.

Viral PDF

P.S.
Please remember that the main software application called the ‘PDF Signer’ is for your own personal use ONLY and MUST NOT be distributed. Only give a copy of the ‘PDF Signer’ plus your rebranded PDF file to affiliates. This information is documented in the user manual and within the software for your convenience.

Have You Created Your Custom Search Engine Yet?

I’ve been experimenting with the idea of adding Google’s new ‘Customized Search Engine’ feature to my sites. It’s basically a make your own search engine for webmasters allowing you to have more control over the destination sites your visitors find while making searches from your web site.

AdSense publishers can also make money!

Explode Your Sales With Other People’s Traffic

Ask virtually any website owner to name their #1 problem and
invariably it comes back to one word - "Traffic!"

How do you get more traffic to your website without breaking
the bank?

Well, the most immediate source for website traffic is
actually quite simple and it’s called "OPT" - Other People’s
Traffic.

Other people have the targeted website visitors you need
right now - you just need to persuade them to funnel some of
it your way.

Your mission is to find people who can refer you their
traffic either for a flat fee, as a trade for services, for
a commission, or on a pay-per-click basis.

The quickest way to find people to refer traffic is to take
inventory of who you know (and who they know) that runs a
site getting the targeted traffic you need.

Once you exhaust that list, go to the search engines and
search using the keyword phrases that would bring the ideal
prospects to your site.

Make a list of the websites that rank well in those searches
and approach them about a traffic deal.

Try to work all your agreements on a per-sale basis first so
you won’t have to pay any cash up front.

They get paid only after a sale is made and you have the
money in your hand.

If they don’t want to work a deal on commission, then you
should negotiate a pay-per-click deal.

This means you only pay when a visitor comes to your site.

However, make sure you closely track the visitors coming
from the site so you can spot any funny business (click
fraud) where the owner might try to inflate the actual click
through numbers to increase their commissions.

You have 4 choices for funneling another site’s traffic to
yours: endorsed mailings, hover ads, text links, and
banners.

Endorsed mailings are the best way to funnel traffic from
another site.

A well-written endorsement letter by a list owner or
publisher with a good relationship with subscribers who can
buy from you is worth its weight in gold.

An effective endorsed mailing can result in traffic, sales,
and money in your pocket within minutes of sending it.

"Hover Ads" represent the next fastest way to funnel traffic
to your site.

When used incorrectly, hover ads create an annoying
distraction for web surfers.

Make sure your hover ads are relevant to exactly what
visitors want by providing focused content (and only showing
up once per session).

The next way to funnel traffic from other sites is trading
or buying "Text Links" - which simply means you get someone
else to link to your site from their site either by paying
them or linking back to them from your site.

TIP: Make sure you negotiate a high profile spot for your
link on the other person’s site so you get maximum
opportunity for people to click through to you.

Banner ads are making a surge in the marketplace as a viable
traffic source.

Don’t expect nearly the same click-through rate on a banner
as for a text ad.

However, banners can result in traffic if you only buy them
on a per-click basis or negotiate a very low cost per
thousand impressions ($5-10 to start).

When negotiating with other websites to steer some or all of
their traffic your way, make sure you create win-win
scenarios that make them want to work with you.

PRWeb To Discontinue Their Free Distribution Service Tomorrow

According Lee Odden as from 23rd October PRWeb’s free press release service will be discontinued. The remaining packages start from under 100 [$80] so it is affordable for most businesses. 

Other free press release services mentioned is PR Leap which I have not personally tested. 

 

It is no surprise me to find that people did not realize that there was a free press release service as it is not as easy to find as the paid service links.

Ah well farewell to another free resource.

Of course there is also the Internet Marketing News Watch also a free niche press release distribution service.  

If you have used any of these services you may want to comment.
