Deciding when to put a blog post is a factor often overlooked by some bloggers.
The time at which you post can have a great impact on your readership.
Do you think I’m crazy?
Take a look at your web stats.
Awstats is a good tool for web analytics (I’ll go into this in a future post).
By auditing your traffic patterns, you can first triangulate:
- The core country for most of your readers (homeground)
- How long they stay at your site (stickiness)
- Which posts are they look at (content concentration)
If your core audience is from the US, you would want to take note of daylight hours in the US.

Free is a dirty word.
Every time I used it, my spam filter flags it with a 3.6 rating. Meaning a high chance of landing in the Spam basket.
No charge and in your sleep are also no-no’s that you want to avoid in your emails.
Heck, even “hello” in your subject line will flag you for spam.
Gee.
Then how am I supposed to talk about my buddy, Stuart Tan’s upcoming event this Wednesday?
You probably already know that Stuart is the Executive Director of the Adam Khoo Learning Technologies Group, and together with Adam Khoo, runs a number of personal development programs.
He’s giving a 2 hour talk, Internet Money Secrets, where he’ll explain what Internet Marketing entails and the various business models.
I asked him for more details. (yes, I fight for the interests and maybe kaypohness (sense of inquisitiveness) of my blog readers.
Come on, what’re are you going to talk about.
Why don’t you come and find out, you’ll be in for a treat, he said.
I booked my place immediately. After all, if he’s going to give an information-packed presentation and it’s all at the cost of nothing (me trying to outsmart the spam files), then it’s silly not to go, don’t you think?
Come on, Stuart, what will you be talking about? Nobody will go if you’re going to talk about your Barbie doll collection, I protested.
Oh, all right, I’ll give an introduction of Internet Marketing, touch on the various business models before I go into the fun topic.
Fun topic? What fun topic?
I suspect there’s be interest in this, but I probably should save it for later.
Come on, spill! dammit!
Oh, alright. I clocked up sales in the six figure region in the last 12 months and many people have asked how I achieved that. I’ll be sharing some of that at the session.
Oh, ok. Can I have a few seats then?
To cut a long story short, I got a “few”.
I offered me the places to my Keiretsu Internet Marketing group, and there were many ready takers.
I have 5 more seats left, if anyone wants them.
If you do, please send me an email at enquiries (at) whoisandrewwee.com. I’ll need to enter your name, contact number and email address into the online reservation system.
If you get a seat, I’ll email or call you to confirm. If not, there’s always next time (no idea when that will be)
PS: due to the small number of seats available, I promised them I’d get back to them on Monday latest. If they’ve any more seats, they’d released them only if people dropped out.
I hope you understand, I’ll have to select entries on a first come, first served basis. So email me now.
A friend had difficulty accessing some websites and her web host a short while ago (Saturday, 26th Aug), she called up her web host Hostgator in the US and the tech support guy told her some server in Indonesia through which Singapore routes is down… Singapore, parts of Asia and Australia have been affected.
I have been checking Google News for any news on this, but can’t seem to locate any items.
In the meantime, my link for SecretBlogWeapon.com seems to have some difficulty connection, though my Malaysian Internet Marketing counterparts don’t have a problem (the server is based in Malaysia).
Having this happen in the midst of an Affilate Marketing campaign throw a bolt into the machinery.
It’s expected to cause a delay in the set up of the Keiretsu Internet Marketing group too.
In the meantime, leave a comment if I can assist with your implementations and I’ll be in touch with you ASAP.
PS: as of now there’s about 12 confirmations for Keiretsu Internet Marketing group. Take up either the Ultimate Affiliate Weapon or Secret Blog Weapon to reap the benefits now.
For details, see the previous post: Affiliate Internet Marketing campaign kicks off, great bonuses!
It was a long wait.
And the wait is over.
To be frank, I have been mucking about with blogging till about a week ago.
That’s when Malaysia-based star blogger Gobala Krishnan launched his WordPress Adsense System. I call it my SecretBlogWeapon.
What is it?
It’s an integrated product containing an insider guide to the WordPress blogging platform, with all the plug-ins and templates to give you flexibility in developing a corporate, hobby or Google Adsense contextual advertising-optimized blog.
Speaking of Adsense, he includes the ‘Top 5 Adsense secrets you’ll ever need to know‘ and approaches to build niche content (which gives you greater traffic and income earning power) as well as methods to generate traffic and original content for your site.
There’re also other goodies like a comprehensive SEO guide and a ‘profitable blogging’ ebook.
All in, it’s great value and beats some of the products that I’ve paid more than double the price for.
Gobala mentioned that depending on demand the price might be adjusted. So do check it out now at SecretBlogWeapon.
As a bonus, having recently implemented it, I am available to help the next few bloggers who purchase it and have difficulty along the way (but not likely as the ebook is well-written).
If you have to plan to go Internet Marketing, be sure to bring your Secret Blog Weapon

Imagine a race where there are 1041 participants and there are two winners.
Would you join in?
Odds sound stacked against you?
What if it costs nothing to participate in and the prizes could be worth million of dollars?
Does that change your mind?
That’s the situation when I took part in Ewen Chia’s Super Affiliate Cloning Program (SACP) challenge. Ewen has been consistently top affiliate for Internet Marketer’s Marlon Sanders, John Reese and Mike Filasamie. He’s the Internet Marketers’ Marketer so to speak.
The SACP would be the ticket to getting the training and tools to become a ‘Super Affiliate’ essentially the top 1% of affiliate marketers. (and the top tier affiliate marketers pull in hundreds of thousands of dollars each month in affiliate income)
I joined in the race to be one of the top two.
Determined to give my all to succeed.
This was my entry: (contains explicit language – scroll past the bold text if it will hurt your eyes):
—
In the midst of the competition, Ewen set aside a 24 hour period to answer all questions related to affiliate marketing, no-holds barred.
You can check out: Ewen Chia’s questions and answers about affiliate marketing.
It is a useful primer for those new to affiliate marketing and gives tips to enhance your existing efforts.
And midway through the competition, Ewen mentioned there’d be a second phase to the competition and he’d be giving away a third ticket.
Did I go for it?
Heck yeah!
Here’s my entry (some explicit language again, so scroll through if you are easily offended):
—
So I had to fend with 154 competitiors for the third ticket.
I waited for the results.
In the meantime, Ewen did an interview with Marlon Sanders which contains lots of information and insight. I’d like to post the URL, but it’s been removed.
Finally.
The day of the results!
I came.
I saw.
I did not conqueor.
Was I disappointed?
Yes
Was I majorly peeved?
Yes!
But more so, I wanted to know what did the winners have in their entries that helped them win.
More important than merely winning the race, is to understand the methodology and being able to leave with a ‘takeaway‘ rather than leave the table with nothing.
Have I captured Ewen’s 24-hour Q&A about affiliate marketing?
Captured it as a PDF for reference?
Hell yeah!
That’s money on the table!
There are 2 types of situations we constantly find ourselves in.
Sometimes we win. Sometimes we lose.
I didnt do so well this time.
- I’m aiming to win the Internet Marketing war.
If there’s interest, I will perform an analysis of the winning posts. (so others can win the next battle)
PS: if you’re not already an experienced affiliate marketer, check out Ewen’s Secret Affiliate Weapon. It’s priced at a crazy price and you get loads of useful materials you can use immediately to get results.
August 17th, 2006 at 2:39 am 1. How you can profit from this information OR how it has changed your thinking about affiliate marketing. And…Hi Ewen,
1) Of the factors you mentioned, a focused and concentrated Affiliate Marketing Mindset is the most important element that sets the pace for everything else. It’s the ‘blueprint’ to succeed which is a pattern where all the other affiliate marketing pieces fall into.You can have the world’s best system, the best materials on hand, but if you are hit by the procrastination virus, your mind is bent and broken from years of excuses and reasons why not to do something, you WILL fail.What I took away from your document is that it all starts from the mind (the hard part).
If you can visualize it, you can make it reality.
2. Why YOU deserve to be one of the select few in my coaching program and what it would mean to get a FREE pass. How would that change your future? Would you buy a new car? A new house? Pay off debt?
Should you pick me because I have no money/I am old/I am young/I have tried everything else and failed/I have five starving kids at home/I have been doing internet marketing for 5 years and nothing to show for it?
I say FUCK THAT.
FUCK excuses.
If I get into the program due to sympathy, I won’t ever be able to earn real respect. Even if I am a success afterwards.
If I get in, it’s on merits, and merits alone.
I don’t think the fact that I may be disadvantaged to qualify for your program.
It shouldn’t factor in the equation.
The past is ancient history.
It’s literally yesterday’s news.
I focus on the PRESENT and the FUTURE.
I look at:
1) where I am today
2) where I want to be tomorrow
3) the best way to get there.
***I see your coaching program as the best way to get there.***
I am HUNGRY for success. I set myself a goal of accumilating $5m in assets by the age of 35. (that’s 2 years away) And will do whatever it takes to get there.
I deserve to be in your program because it’s a 2-way street.
You deserve me to be in your program because you KNOW that I will do WHATEVER it takes to reach that pinnacle of success.
I believe in ‘walking the walk’, rather than merely ‘talking the talk’.
If it’s going to take 20 hour workdays for a month to get the product launched and ready (Believe me, I’ve done that during the dotcom era.), if it has to be done, it HAS to be done.
RESULTS speak louder than words or excuses.
I’ll spare you all the grandmother stories.
Give me an opportunity prove it to you.
Give me a place in your coaching program.
Cheers,
Andrew Wee
