Hello ~~NAME~~, and Welcome!
Server moves have plagued me this week.
It's a pain moving servers and a better backup system would have
helped me no end :( Still, I'm now on another server and it's all
working fine - bar the scripts. This means FFA, Classifieds, Forum,
Randomizer and the ad rotations provided by PhpAdsNew are not
working. Not a great loss but they are all traffic sources to
NetpreneurNow.com. They'll be back up "soon".
NetpreneurNow had to move since my host closed their server, and
Button Swap had the same problem. I've now changed to
Hostoodle.com which is a reseller service, allowing me to host
multiple domains. These reseller services are a bargain since you
can put everything in one place and manage them easily with the
industry-standard C-Panel.
MembersSite.net is unaffected by this move and I've added a
couple more downloads (see below). E-mail was affected so if you
sent anything important and I didn't reply please try again.
Finally don't forget you can get more-or-less daily updates at
the Blog! This is at http://netpreneurnow.blogspot.com and
there you'll find lots of litle nuggets of information such as
quick tips, useful websites, new downloads, etc. It's a cool place
to bookmark. Also the forum is ready and waiting at http://www.netpreneurnow.com/forum though it's still quiet.
Please note the new address of the Blog... another server-move
casualty :(
-------------------------------------------
A great `side effect` of using a Blog is that you can receive
the headlines direct to your desktop. Download a "Rss News
Reader" app and enter the blogs newsfeed address, and away you
go! With the e-mail situation as it is this may be the best
way to receive Netpreneur News information in bite-sized chunks.
RSS Feeds are currently one of the hot topics on the net and
apart from receiving Netpreneur News you can subscribe to a lot
of news resources, blogs, ezines and other useful sources of
information -- direct to your desktop.
3. You now have the ability to receive Netpreneur News to
your News Reader as and when it's updated!
-------------------------------------------
One more thing, I ask this every week but a lot of you haven't
moved. If you want to remain a member of Netpreneur News in the
future AND gain extra downloads and special-offers join our double-
optin list. It's VERY low traffic (you'll get 1 message), so take
a moment to do it now :-)
You'll need to CONFIRM by checking your email. It's double-optin.
Yours,
Stuart Reid
Netpreneur Now
P.S. Coming Soon - I'm reworking the Links page as a Resource
Page that is ideal to bookmark. It will hold useful resource sites
such as fr'ee email, forums, download sites, review sites, html
tools etc. If you have a site of interest send it in and I'll add
it.
P.P.S. The Best Deal Ever offer has ended. You can still get it at
the full price, but the discounted special is no more. Make a
filter in your email to receive Netpreneur News to ensure you
receive the next great deal...
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Amazing new affordable resource for Newbies -
The Web Marketing Boot Camp!
Only $20 AND you get full resale-rights AND you get full
training geared toward newbies. This is ideal if you find
things a little overwhelming and need a straight forward
place to start.
It's also ideal if you need to provide this information to
others, perhaps if you run a members site or an ezine yourself...
List Building - Have All the Fun and none of the challenges!
Intelligent list building by names you can trust.
Curious who they are? Lead the cast of High Flyers with

Here's this weeks Ebook Review - focusing on Website Design.
Not only for marketers, but more of a general guide. It does what
it says on the box and is a great starting point for anyone knew
to the art (or is it science?).
A pair of e-books that cover the tricky subject of installing
scripts on your pages. This is something that gets a lot of people
into a lot of bother... hopefully these two will help.
A very good package that includes the sales page and more. This
guide covers everything you need to know. It even has video
tutorials. If you need something that is in a step-by-step "do
this, then this" format take a look. After all, like everything
here it's fr'ee! You may need to build on your knowledge to
improve your sites but to get _something_ up that looks rights
just follow this guide.
This famous book is focused on building one-page marketing sites,
or "mini sites". These have been proven to work and almost all
sales pages you see today still follow the format. Killer Mini
Sites is more focused on the marketing sites than the other
guides.
Another comprehensive HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) guide
that this time gets down to the `nitty gritty` of your web pages,
the code behind the scenes. Many people feel more comfortable with
using HTML directly rather than a web-design package (as do I) so
if that appeals this is a both a great reference and a tutorial
6. And don't forget the quick&easy Website Creation tool at the
Tools page! There's both an on-line version and a downloadable
version, ideal to use or bookmark. http://www.memberssite.net/members/tools.shtml
Apart from these books there are a lot more at the Members Site
that cover web design as part of their content. Once you know how
to build a web site you need to put something on it - and for
marketing that involves the tricky subject of Copywriting. It is
said that Copywriting is THE most essential skill you can have to
sell on-line and we cover that in the next issue.

New traffic systems appear regularly. Traffic Plus is one such
offering, from JPE Advertising. I haven't looked into it too
deeply but at first glance it's somewhat similiar to programs
like 10 Minutes A Day or MPAM (which is too involved to be
practical). So far I'm quite impressed, and anything fr-ee has
to be worth a look!
For a long time now I've published my phone number, but here's the
secret. It's a special number provided by Yac.co.uk. As the domain
suggests, it's for us lucky UK residents but they'll give you a
fr'ee phone number that you can set to either forward to another
phone, answer with a menu, receive faxes, or act as an answering
machine that e-mails you an MP3 of the call. This protects your
real phone number which is easily abused by unscrupulous people.
There are probably comparable USA phone services, I'll try and
find some by next issue :-)
Bryan Winters of PBP has published a useful resource at his
webpage, that gives you a quick one-page checklist of everything
you need to include on your sales letters.
It's really an online article but this is worth printing out and
keeping if you can.
New Viral Marketing Contest
Over $15000 worth of prizes here and there are winners each day.
Lots of ways to participate. Just join for fr'ee to gain an entry
or promote for more chances. Even submit your own prizes if you
have your own product and build your lists. Another win/win deal
:-)
If you want to read about some top salesmen from times past as
well as the current batch then this a good place to start. Nearly
everyone mentioned were top of their fields and since people don't
change, their techniques still work :)
This is not so much Marlon Sanders, Yanik Silver, Jimmy Brown or
Corey Rudl but more about the people that taught _them_, such as
Claude Hopkins, Robert Collier, Joe Karbo etc. Go on, you do want
to know who these guys are!
A handy site for your bookmarks: DNS Stuff!
A one-page site full of useful Domain Name tools so you can perform
a WHOIS search, IP searches, check abuse records, make strange
domain addresses readable, and much more.
The exchange site Clix have a good article at their site
especially for all Exchange Owners. Lots of good advice here, from
those who practice what they preach. If you run a traffix exchange
you could do far worse than take a look. I'd guess they are
technically `rivals` but their advice is still sound!
2. The Best Deal Ever
As it says, the best marketing deal I have yet come
across. Just take a look, no room to explain here! http://www.netpreneurnow.com/bestdeal

Proven plan for using Google Adwords to create

If you ask most people what frustrates them most about the
Internet, many of them will tell you "It's the little
things!"
It seems like all the great tricks and tips that
make people exclaim "STOP! How did you do that?" never make
it into any manual (at least where I can find them).
My father (and co-author of "Turn Words Into Traffic")
calls it the "reverse oral tradition" of computing, where
children teach parents the survival skills of PC life.
Well, if you want to look good to your kids or buddies
around the water cooler, check out the following cool web
tricks.
~^~ Cool Google Tricks ~^~
Virtually everyone knows that Google.com ranks at the top
of most people's search engine lists, but it does a lot
more than just tell you where to find vitamins or
information on George Washington's wooden teeth!
Need a map to a specific location?
Type in the address, city and state of virtually any
location in the US, hit the search button, and Google
serves up several different map providers across the Web.
Want to know what software application a certain file goes
with on your computer?
Input the file name into Google's search box and a number
of reference sites will help you know exactly what purpose
a file serves.
I actually used this to feature to identify a piece of
"spyware" lurking on my computer.
Want to know who's calling you on the phone in the US?
You can just input the phone number on your caller ID or
cell phone display into the Google search box and get
information on listed numbers before your answering machine
can even pick up!
Next time you can't see small text clearly on a website,
try holding down the "CTRL" key and then moving the scroll
wheel on your mouse up and down.
The text in your web browser (and some programs) will
increase and decrease in size as you roll the wheel back
and forth.
This little trick provides an excellent means of quickly
getting what you need from websites with tiny text.
~^~ Slow Surfing? ~^~
If your Internet Explorer web browser starts giving you
problems, you might want to clean up your "Temporary
Internet Files."
Most people don't realize it, but when you leave a web
page, it doesn't leave you!
Most of the time you keep a copy of websites you visit on
your hard drive and, over time, they build up.
This collection of old web pages can eventually cause your
surfing to slow to a crawl and even cause errors!
Here's one way to clear out those old files. Click your
"Start" button, then "All Programs," "Accessories," "System
Tools" and "Disk Cleanup."
After an initial check of your hard drive (which can take
some time if it's the first time you've ever launched the
utility), you can check the boxes of the files you wish to
delete.
To speed up your surfing, at a minimum, make sure you
delete the "Temporary Internet Files."
~^~ Surfing Shortcuts ~^~
To quickly cycle back and forth through a series of web
pages you've visited, hold down the "ALT" key and tap your
left and right arrow keys.
Left arrow takes you back while the Right arrow takes you
forward.
The Page Up and Page Down buttons allow you to quickly move
up and down any web page without struggling to find the
scroll bar slider on the right side of the page.

Hope so this relates to YOU. If not thanks God. Fear
and frustration are biggest obstacles towards success.
Newbies caught by these two F's results into failure
and ultimately quitting.
Tremendous Confusion When Started -- Several Questions...
* How to get started?
* Can I make money online?
* What should I do?
* What should I sell?
* Will people buy?
* How to design my site?
* How to get automated?
* How to drive traffic?
Common Excuses...
* I am not creative,
* I have no money,
* I have no technical skills,
* I am confused,
* I want a readymade business, etc.
Eyes popping on a screen with 100,000 channels totally
confused, hunting for a channel where $$$ exists. Waiting
for some miracle to happen and praying for a sale to
popup.
Lots of hypes and promises floating all around by
some self proclaimed Gurus just to get those few bucks
out of your pocket. Who must I believe and not?
Another big question.
But answer of 'How to achieve success?' is nowhere
hidden in answers to these above questions.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Only Answer According To Me Is 'YOU'
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You are solely responsible for your success or
failure and no one else.
Just keep in mind one sentence 'I will do it and I
have got to do it' and believe me you will.
Success is within YOU and nowhere else. If you want
to be big, think BIG. Definition of insanity is that
people want extraordinary results by doing ordinary
things.
Making it short: Have patience, be determined to succeed,
copy and learn from experts and above all have faith
in God. You will SUCCEED.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
WAKE UP EVERYONE!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Check Out Your 8 Steps To Success...
1. Possess a positive attitude and be away from
negativity. Life has tremendous possibilities
above our imagination. Take advantage of it.
2. Strive to succeed. Never give up, never EVER
quit. Try and try till you succeed.
3. Work smart and learn everything YOU can. Key
between success and failure is know-how. Get it
from experts and you will SUCCEED.
4. DRIVE yourself with a burning desire to succeed.
Stay focused on your goals at all times.
5. Never run behind 'get rich quick' and
'overnight millionaire' schemes. Rather push up
your creative juices and do something different.
6. Always think BIG, be open minded and have
confidence in yourself.
7. Never get upset from some initial failures.
Step on them to find your hidden success.
8. Once again! Yep I repeat it several times,
patience, passion, persistency, commitment,
determination, hardwork, vision and a
burning desire to succeed is the ONLY way to
massive success.
I believe I have made you successful from within.

NOW! Lets Be Practical...

I am just a 21-year-old college student and have
been a victim of tremendous fear in this internet jungle.
This entire article relates to my feelings, fear,
frustration, confusion and tears for the last three
years. And it is quite possible you might be at the
same place where I was.
No guidance, no help, no advice, all alone in this
jungle. My biggest fear was of financial loss, which
when comes to internet can be as fast as water flows
from a tap. And I know this fear exists in thousands
of newbies.
I am committed to help you, and get you out of this
internet jungle. The only requirement is hardwork
and a will to succeed. That's it.
I wish you all the very best in this internet jungle
and pray for your success. Until next time, a well
wisher and a caring friend, Murtuza.
