1. Editors Note.
------------------------------------------------------------

Dear subscribers,

Welcome again to another issue of SmartPromotion.

First, I want to let you know that I have decided to raise
the price of my 'Web Site and E-zine Promotion Made
Easy!' E-book with 10.00$ at 1 December 2000.

Why? Because I have added a lot of new information to
it, to make it more beneficial for my resellers, and also
because some of the other marketers have been asking
me if I didn't need the money :-)

==> So take advantage of the low price TODAY, and get
your own copy, plus the bonus gifts, for only 19$ from:
http://www.smart-web-promotion.com/ebook.htm

You can then sign up to become an affiliate for FREE,
and earn 40% commission on the new 29.90$ price!
Click below to become an affiliate:

To make your affiliate job easier, I will provide you with
a FREE personalized copy, including your own affiliate
link, some effective newsletter ad copy and banners to
promote it on your own web site, so you will get your
investment back in no time!

I really want you to succeed in this, and if you need any
help, you can contact me via email, and I will give you
my personal assistence 24/24.

Thanks!

Secondly, I want to share another great E-book with you:

It's called "Yahoo! Secrets Revealed" and it's written by
my friend Harmony Major. I just downloaded this book
and it impressed me so much I decided to spend a
portion of today's issue to tell you about it.

Harmony's E-book shows you a simple way to increase
your website's traffic by 200-400 visitors per day for less
than the price of Dinner For Two ... GUARANTEED!

How that?

By getting YOUR site a number one listing on Yahoo!,
the Internet's largest, most popular, searchable directory.

If you got YOUR site a top Yahoo! listing, you could reap
the rewards of HUNDREDS of those visitors, each and
every day.

Yahoo! Secrets will show you how to get that coveted free
listing quickly and easily.

A Yahoo! listing is FREE, and never expires. With Harmony's
new special report package, you'll learn exactly how to get
your website a #1 listing on Yahoo.

You'll discover how to:

- Achieve a NUMBER ONE RANKING for your keyword of
choice. This IS possible, and you'll be taught an air-tight,
step-by-step method that shows you EXACTLY how to do
it. (This top-secret information can't be found anywhere else!)

- Get listed on Yahoo! light-years faster than the average
website. The current average wait for a Yahoo! listing is
6-8 months after resubmissions. Discover how to get
your site listed in just weeks ... to days.

- Get your site listed for FREE! Paying for express service
usually isn't necessary if you submit your site the right way.
Learn the exact method of getting a top listing WITHOUT
paying one red cent for priority service!

- Spark a virtual stampede of traffic to any website... hands-
free. You'll notice the traffic boost the very minute Yahoo!
accepts your site. After submitting, there will be no more
need for you to fiddle with that listing ... EVER AGAIN.

You can take it from me that Harmony takes her customers
seriously; Her tactics have been thoroughly researched and
tested to bring you accurate, up-to-date information that's
ready for your IMMEDIATE use.

With Yahoo! Secrets, you won't be forced to suffer through
the "same old stuff" already in circulation online. Sure, there
are some things repeated in Yahoo! Secrets -it wouldn't be
a complete, one-stop resource without them. But there is
also a wealth of other information that hasn't been uncovered
elsewhere -namely exactly what to do to get a #1 LISTING
on Yahoo.

Give your web site the boost it needs at:
http://YahooSecrets.com/cgi-bin/ls/c.cgi/smart_ad

Enjoy this issue, and don't forget to tell your friends about
us! Forward them this newsletter, they also deserve it...

2. Smart Promotion Tip (2)
------------------------------------------------------------

Organize and maintain your reciprocal links!

your site that are placed on other websites.

Once someone links to your website, you want to make
sure that link stays there, especially if their web site is
popular :-)

LinkWatch does the job for you. As you exchange links
with other sites, you can add new sites to this list.

Check your links with a simple mouse click. To get
your own FREE LinkWatch, go to:

"Think Like a Pro!"

By Carlos Arenas

I have a great way to boost your exposure on the net.
I'm going to start by saying what I found out:

You have to stop thinking and doing like an amateur and
start thinking and doing like a pro.

I know this is an obvious concept and it sums it up in any
profession, but it directly applies to internet marketing as
a whole, since most internet marketers are amateurs.

I found out that creating a club or hosting an event does
wonders for your online business. It is kind of like a
disguise or a "camouflauge." You pick something you are
passionate about; some hobby or passtime or anything you
think may make a difference in other peoples lives and you
sponsor it like big corporations do. That's it, and best of
all it's completely free.

Let's say you have a website with some affiliates you are
promoting but nobody seems to be visiting it. You can
sponsor something you are passionate about and promote
that instead.

You make a page of that subject(1 page only). For example:
Pro-Napster Club (just an example) It also has to be
something of concern or it wont work. You take this page
and write some copy. Again you have to be passionate
about this or you're going to need to do a lot of research.

You then make a small button 88x31 pixels that says
"I am Pro-Napster" and put it on that page with instructions
on "how to put this button on your website."

Note: the button should be attractive so people will like
to have the button on their page. The code you supply for
the button should have a URL back to that page.

Here comes the cool part. At the bottom of the page you
put your link! See the beauty of this. Make the link small so
it isn't obvious and don't make the page full with images
or they wont see the link.

You can put something like "Pro-Napster Club is brought
to you by: Your Company." You then place the button link
on your page and begin a a mini ad campaign promoting
the club.

Next thing you know you'll have hundreds of websites with
your button on it promoting your website without them even
knowing it.

This is exactly what big corporations do. They have other
vehicles to move their logo or product. Sponsor athletes,
musicians, etc. This accompannied by other methods of
marketing is very smart and highly effective.

I have used this technique to sponsor something I am
passionate about. I started a club called Anti-Scam Group.

I started this club because I hate internet scammers. The
worst feeling of all is to feel used or to been had. If you feel
like I do go to http://go.to/anti-scam_group

So you see, follow the motto:

You have to stop thinking and doing like an amateur and
start thinking and doing like a pro.
