IMade500 Review and Bonus – Anik Singal

IMade500 Review and Bonus

As an internet marketer focusing on newbies to make money online, I like Anik’s change of direction. In the midst of an industry that is full of hype and promises, he took his company, LURN, Inc. to take a drastic turn and just focus on getting newbies get started (REALLY FAST!) without the BIG promises and much less hype.

IMade500 was made specifically for newbies to help them get started, put up their site within two hours, drive traffic to it and finally making the first sale.

It offers a simple $500 blueprint that starts with helping you make your first “Review” site and driving traffic to it in order to make your first dollar online.

Check out this video and see what would Anik do if he suddenly went bankrupt! (Get his free $500 blueprint too): IMade500 Anik

What I Like About IMade500:

  • Really low cost compared to just doing it on your own – it only costs $32/ a month for a complete online site with your own domain name, your own site and a simple to follow traffic course (if bought separately=$10/ year for the domain, $9+ for hosting, $50+ for a site with 2-4 pages, around $97-$147 for the traffic course)
  • Lets you write a review article even if you hate writing! Anik has integrated a Review Creator inside the membership area that lets you write a full review article by just filling in blanks!
  • No fluff and straight to the point! The system is complete in itself and won’t make you to buy additional products like several internet marketing products tell you.
  • My favorite = the system is REALLY SIMPLE…even if you don’t know anything about making money online, putting up a website and driving traffic at all!
  • It will make you feel valuable and that you are a part of something – IMade500 will give you a virtual buddy and celebrates with you as you make your first sale! This is one of the secrets of success of almost all online marketers out there!

What I Don’t like about the IMade500 system:

  • It will make you depend on the system too much. The system offers automation and really makes it simple for someone to get their review sites up and running. While this is good (and I mean really good if you don’t want to write your own review article), it will make you rely more on the system than learning to do these things on your own
  • The IMade500 system only have 2 bonuses by Anik on it – although this is much more of a preference. I like products that have a lot of bonuses! But I think Anik just doesn’t want you to lose focus on a lot of bonuses and to avoid information overload so its best that way for the majority

Different Methods to Boost Your Website Traffic

by Ricz Sabido on January 23, 2010

I’m sure by now that you already have a plan and strategy in place for your site’s marketing campaign, if you don’t have one, I suggest you read my previous posts, Integrating Short Term and Long Term Traffic and Targeted Traffic first.

Before moving on to specific traffic methods and techniques, I’ll give you the list of all the basic traffic methods that I use and tell you the benefits and differences of each one (I won’t go into details here as each one of these methods need a whole new post). Don’t get overwhelmed by the huge list though…remember that you don’t have to do all this in one go. Take it slow and steady.

The list below is divided into two categories, free traffic and paid traffic, and they are arranged and sorted out further by speed in descending order, meaning the first one in each list category is the fastest method to acquire traffic.

Paid Traffic

  • Pay-Per-Click Advertising
    • Instant traffic literally! You will see results within minutes after setting up your campaign
    • Can be short-term or long-term, depends on how much you are willing to spend
    • You only pay for results (clicks)
    • Gives you, as the advertiser, the power to control the costs.
  • Banner or Text Link Advertising
    • Second to PPC when it comes to sending traffic
    • Same with PPC advertising, can give you short and long-term results depending on your budget
    • You pay for exposure (usually on a monthly basis)
    • Good for bringing highly targeted traffic if you choose well for the sites to advertise on
  • Newsletter or Ezine Advertising
    • A short term method – will give you a sudden boost of traffic in a short time
    • Still works but you have to find a newsletter or ezine that is directly related to what you are offering
    • Payment terms differ as some sites charge per newsletter and some charge per month
    • Can give you high quality traffic if you know the right way to do it (right ads to create, methods to use, etc…)
