How I got fed and misled in Caracas…

Tuesday the 12th

General, Internet Marketing

It’s more than 14 days ago since my last email to you so I just wanted to tell you that I got home okay. I’m back from Caracas. So here are my impressions…

In fact, I got home last week already but I had to catch up with so many things after coming back that I simply had to get some personal things done, first. And of course, there were some Internet business related issues as well. If you’ve ever been away to the other side of the world and got home from it, I think you can relate to it

Teaching Rolf how to set up niche blogs using WordPress

As mentioned, I was in Caracas to coach one of you, Rolf, in creating search engine optimized WordPress blogs (and as a first step identifying niche markets and the best keywords). Of course, it didn’t stop with the creation of these blogs. Because having websites or standard blogs is one thing but making them profitable is another.
In other words, promotion strategies were included as well. And especially the use of one tool which I will mention later.

Anyway, apart from teaching him what to do, I also recorded everything on video. Yes, we’ve made some Camtasia videos so he can refer to them over and over again. And from his feedback, I now know what a complete newbie in this Internet business is looking for (in fact, he was a newbie to computers as well but that’s another story…).

There was a second reason I made these videos… I now have a completely unique product which I can sell to German speaking people and set myself apart from others. Yes, I plan on releasing some new products in the german market as well. And as I will explain later, in another post, it can really be worth your time. By the way, Rolf is not a German but he originally is from Switzerland.

But fortunately for me, he spoke perfect “hochdeutsch”. This is important because even for us Germans, a real swiss german accent is very hard to understand. It’s almost like a completely different language.

Why did Rolf hire me? Well, he simply wanted to find a way to make a living on the Internet, just like you. He is a former hotelier and used to live in Kenia for quite some time before moving to Venezuela.

Rolf recognized that just by reading books or listening to some audios, you don’t learn that much and you probably won’t be getting all the steps needed to make a business profitable. And since there are not too many Internet marketing experts who are also speaking German, he found this absolutely perfect combination in me

What does it take to work abroad?

Well, you need to become an expert on at least one subject. You probably don’t know it yet, but in the last two years I have somehow become an expert on creating WordPress blogs. Then I went one step further and found out everything that was needed to make them profitable. My next step was automating everything AND making these blogs unique without too much work and this was made possible just recently with Jonathan Leger’s Article Builder. I cannot stress enough how important this tool has become for me. Try updating your blog manually for 3 months and you will know why you need it.

Anyway, I now have a powerful system in place which lets me create the blogs, do a little work on them and enjoy the fruits of my labor for months and years to come. Each blog I create is making a bare minimum of $2 a day. If you knew these metrics – how many of those would you build? … Exactly, and that’s what I am doing most days. I love building websites and especially blogs so it’s fun to do and I am making money doing what I love.

Is there a better combination to earn your money…?

Elections in Venezuela – I was an observer

I was there during the elections and as you can probably can imagine, it was kind of scary to see all of these military guys trying to protect the people who went to schools and other public buildings to cast their vote. I didn’t feel really secure passing along this crowd when I went over to my client’s home on Sunday, Dec. 02 …

With his counter USA paroles, Hugo Chavez certainly hasn’t made friends in the world. But unfortunately, it seems like he will stay the first man in Venezuela for longer than most of us were hoping for. Will he become the next Fidel Castro…?

And while he is getting richer and richer, most poor people, the majority of people over there, has to live in poor areas.
