One thing that many internet marketers (or any business that goes online to build business) tend to forget in their campaigns is Anchor Text backlinks.  First of all, building backlinks to your website is extremely important, but if you are not doing it correctly, you can really hurt yourself in the long run.  Second, when you are building backlinks, you need to make sure that you are using anchor text (text that is relevant to the content on your site).  Doing this correctly will not only show the top search engines that your site is important, but it will also show them just what your site is all about and what keywords they should rank your site for (does that make sense???).

So many people will write amazing content to submit to all of the article directories and web 2.0 sites.  They will do their keyword research.  They will have the proper keyword density in their content.  They will write relevant articles that will make people really want to go to their site to continue reading.  Bad news is that 75% of these people will then put something in their author bio like this:

“For More Information on how to correctly choose the best wedding planner for your upcoming wedding, click here!

WRONG!  Now, when Google is out crawling all of these article directories, it will see the words “click here” and think that that word or phrase is relevant to your website!  Really, what the hell does “click here” have to do with your website?  Absolutely NOTHING!  You are hurting yourself.  If someone goes into google to look for a wedding planner, do you really think they are going to type “click here” and hope to find the best wedding planner?  What the most common bride to be is going to type into google is:  best wedding planner in Dallas, or cheapest wedding planners in the Dallas area or something like that.  How about you create a bio box like this:

If you would like to speak to the best wedding planner in Dallas, please contact Kaye at Dallas Platinum Weddings.  She can show you what she can do to make your wedding ideas become a dream come true!

Not only does this sound more appealing, but the more articles that you have out there with this type of anchor text, the higher google will rank you for this keyword or phrase.  This is how you are going to start building business!

In the next post, I will share with you the ways that I go about getting one way anchor text backlinks.  I will show you where to go, how to do it, and how some can and will be more important than others!

Hey you're kinda new here aren't you... You should subscribe to our RSS feed, so you never miss a video. It's also my mission to get to know all my new readers. Follow me on Twitter so we can chat. Thanks for visiting!

Man it sure has been a long time since I have been able to make a post!

I have been so busy with everything!  Life is an amazing thing.  You only get to go through it once, and you sure as hell better do everything that you can to make it enjoyable.  That is what I have been trying to do.

In addition to having a beautiful baby girl (Chloe Nicole Jensen), my wife and I have been working on a few other things.  Being that my wife is on maternity leave right now, she has taken the role of wedding coordinator for her sisters upcoming wedding.  I have never seen her as happy as she is while doing all of this work for the upcoming wedding.  We have taken this passion and we are creating a new business for her.  So, if you know anyone that is getting married in the Dallas area, please have them check out Dallas Platinum Weddings.

In addition to this, I have been working with a god friend of mine on a website that is more for fun (Bash Your Co-Worker).  As you can see, with this site, I am actually taking a step away from in your face internet marketing, and taking what I have learned to do what I enjoy (build, maintain, and market websites).  The good news is that once this site is getting a certain amount of daily traffic, I can start selling ad space on this site.  Talk about easy money!  People will pay you on a weekly, monthly, or yearly basis to place their ads on your busy site!

Anyway, I have decided to start focusing more time back to this blog since I have finally got these other sites up and running, and now I just have to maintain!

Do what you love!  Talk about what you are passionate about!  It pisses me off when people say that they can not pick a niche to try to make money.  You can make money in ANY market you can think of.  If you enjoy something, start writing about it.  Talk about it, make videos about it, write articles about it.  If you enjoy something, chances are you will have a lot of other people online that are interested in what you have to say.  Get readers, get followers, get daily traffic, and sell ad space!  It is really pretty easy.

It is going to take time to get a following and get that daily traffic, but if you are writing or blogging about something that you are passionate about, it should be pretty easy to keep it up.

Anyone see that movie Julie and Julia?  Stories like that happen every day.  Yeah, it was not easy for he at first, but she ended up doing so well that they made a movie about her (think that gig paid very well???).

Here are the links to the things that I am working on.

Remember one thing:  YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE!  LIVE IT LIKE EVERY DAY IS YOUR LAST!

Good Evening Everyone!

I know that it has been a while, but I have been so busy!

My wife is just over a month away from giving birth to our first baby! I was recently promoted, so I am working a little bit more in my real job. I have been building, developing, and marketing about 15 affiliate websites (which brings me to the reason of this post).

I have decided to focus all of my efforts on about 5 sites that I have a lot of interest in, and I have decided to put the rest of them (good, but no interest) up for sale. I thought about using flippa.com, but I thought that I would start here. I will be taking bids through responses. All of the sites have a starting bid of $50, and I have a reserve that I will not go below. If you are interested in any of these sites, please reply to the post with a bid, or you can send me a private email at chris@askchrisjensen.com.

I have so many people that are here on a daily basis that I would like to offer these sites to before I try to sell them on Flippa. All of the sites listed were built using Wordpress with the custom and premium Thesis theme. They all have different forms of monetization ranging from CPA to CJ affiliate program to Ebay Partnet Network to Google Adsense to Clickbank products to Amazon products.

Some of them have opt ins with follow up messages. Some of them are getting traffic (even though I have not done anything except basic SEO and some social bookmarking).

Here is the list. If you have any questions about any of them, please let me know. I will be more than happy to get the sites over to your hosting company. I will only be accepting Paypal. If you do not know if you can get accepted into the programs that are being promoted, please do not try to buy until you get accepted (I have ads from Maxbounty’s CPA program and Ebay Partner Network). There is one site that was built for the sole purpose of Wealthy Affiliate. You cannot promote Wealthy Affiliate if you are not a member, so if you are not a member, please do not try to get mrwealthyaffiliate dot com.

Please check out the sites and let me know what you think. I would be more than happy to change anything about any of the sites to make them more appealing to you. If you are interested in traffic and statistical information about any of the sites, just let me know.

If you know anyone that might be interested in any of these sites, please let them know!
