Niche Empire Generator

Andrew Hansen launched the now popular Niche Marketing on Crack during February 2007 and having used the system myself since I purchased it in March I can state with confidence that it represents a breakthrough in article marketing, the focus on product promotion and the invaluable step by step advice for setting up and optimizing a Wordpress Blog, however, the system does have it's drawbacks, one being the need to create up to eight articles per niche to promote the blog, the other being to have to manually manage all the article and blog updates for a growing number of promoted products.

Niche Empire Generator has been designed to address the latter problem of niche management and automation, and will provide more time for that Internet Marketers favorite occupation... the "Starbucks" afternoon!

Niche Empire Generator takes all the hard labor out of creation of Wordpress blogs, I have to say that creating the blog is something that I actually enjoy, hard work yes, and time consuming, but I could spend literally hours tinkering with the settings in Wordpress to make the layout look just right - time that I should really have spent churning out additional articles. Andrew has demonstrated that once the necessary settings have been entered into Niche Empire Generator, creation of the Wordpress site takes less than five minutes, that's effortless in my book!

In addition to this Niche Empire Generator will also keep track of all your niches, maintaining a log of all material posted to date, whether blogs or articles and reminding you when it is time to do an update, the application also tracks search engine rankings, so you can tell at a glance whether your blog is on page 3 or page 23.

This last feature is critical if you want a continued income from the products you are promoting, it is absolutely essential to know when your articles are no longer hitting the front page of Google, before Niche Empire Generator it was a slow process of searching each keyword term individually to determine rankings, or waiting until your affiliate income suddenly takes a dive, now this is all done for you, pretty neat!

The automation aspects of Niche Empire Generator are exceptional and don't only apply to marketers who use Niche Marketing on Crack. Niche Empire Generator will manage your niche websites whether you use Niche Marketing on Crack, Bum Marketing, Jim Edwards Mini-sites or almost any other niche system out there at the moment

In plain terms, put Niche Empire Generator to work to automate your niche marketing business and you will see your affiliate sales flourish.

Niche Empire Generator Review

If you have been diligently building niche sites with Wordpress, you know how tedious and time consuming it can be. Unless you are a Wordpress geek, tweaking it to be search engine friendly can be quite tricky and time . Before this software, I hand built all my Wordpress niche sites and each one takes me at least 4 days just to complete. And that is only building it, not including the time spent on promoting the niche site. Niche Empire Generator seems like a the perfect answer I was looking for. Naturally I jumped on it when it is released. I try to give an unbiased review of the software for the benefit of anyone still sitting on the fence with this one.

As an overview, what Niche Empire Generator does is to build and manage niche websites for you. The kind of niche sites are Wordpress blog based and follow the principles of the popular report Niche Marketing On CRACK that this guy released a couple of months back. I have bought the book and love it.

Ok, first let?s look at the Pros:

- The sofware makes it very easy to build niche sites customized to the way you like them and with many helpful addons. If you have built a wordpress blog before, you know how tedious and time consuming to install the theme and plugins. As well as inserting banners and adsense codes. This software does all this for you in a few clicks. Once you understand how it works (full videos are provided) there is no reason why anyone couldn?t have their first profitable niche site up and running within a short timeof using the software.

- It creates the sites to be very SEO friendly and eliminates a lot of work that would have to be done by hand normally. This is a great feature as I have spent hours and hours just to tweak Wordpress themes to be more SEO friendly. Everything is preset here, so you don?t have to worry about how to make your site friendly to the SE spiders. Besides that, this software also helps you promote the sites by submitting the RSS feeds of the sites you build around the web and integrating social bookmarking features designed to pull traffic from the social network sites.

- When I first read the on CRACK report I wondered how someone could really make so many niche sites because it is hard to follow them and keep them all updated. With this software, you can post and manage all your niche sites in one area. This is a huge time saver.

- It doesn?t just manage your sites, it manages everything you do to your sites so you can instantly know when your sites will need updating again, where their ranking in the search engines, how many links you?re getting, what articles you?ve submitted to where and much more. I really think this is cool. I have not seen similar softwares with this feature.

Well, you are probably be thinking the software should not be all that good?.. so, what are the cons?

- First, if you want this software to automate EVERYTHING 100%, well , sorry, building many niche sites does take time and effort. The software doesn?t do EVERYTHING for you and you will still need to generate your own content. This software is not a blog creator or generator using spammy RSS feeds or worse, gibberish. Well, if you are doing Niche Marketing On Crack sites, you DO need real, good content. Good news is Andrew is giving away huge PLR resources to get you started easily when you purchase the software.

- You will want to use your own templates after a while as I thought more would have been provided in the package. You wouldn?t want to build hundreds of sites with similar themes. Or worse, your sites are similar to thousands of NMOC sites out there. I do hope Andrew wil consider this for future updates.

My Verdict?

While we know that automation is a great thing online, total automation is generally not possible. This Niche Empire Generator thing is as close to maximum automation as I have seen in terms of niche marketing, especially if you are building NMOC sites. Niche Empire Generator is definately worth a good look for its huge time saving feature. Remember, time is money. Would you want to spend days just to create a niche site when you can create in a few minutes?

Designing an Ocean Wave Hydro Electric Generator Which Can Withstand a 500 Lb Bomb

With all the conflict in the world we must be careful with the infrastructure projects we put into Third World nations. With all the help that the NGOs, world governments and United States of America give we must be realistic with the money we spend and how we spend it. First order of business should not be simply to cure diseases or feed people.

The first order of any human civilization should be clean water that can be used for agriculture, cleanliness and drinking. The next order of business should be proper sewage treatment plants to prevent disease. Next, it makes sense to produce power for the masses and their civilization.

One problem we have seen is when we go in build facilities, infrastructure or teach people to farm; is that wars, terrorism and fighting ruin all that has been built. Therefore on the first three items of business we need to design infrastructure, which can withstand a 500-pound bomb. In other words, we must face reality and be smart about our investments in Third World nations and our goals.

Recently our Online Think Tank ask the question; Can We Build and Design an Ocean Wave Hydro Electric Generator, which can withstand a 500 Lb Bomb. The answer is most likely; No. But we could build a modularized system that can be easily rebuilt as long as parts are available in a very short amount of time. Still the goal in the future should be to build something that is literally bulletproof.

This means just because there is some civil unrest or a war, the infrastructure is still intact. This way things can return to normal very quickly. I certainly hope this article is of interest and that is has propelled thought. The goal is simple; to help you in your quest to be the best in 2007. I thank you for reading my many articles on diverse subjects, which interest you.

Solar Power versus Generator - the Choice

As I write this in early 2007, the controversy over global warming has heated up (pun intended), and people are taking another look at solar power versus generator. For those living outside the power grid, the second look may save not only the green in the rain forest, but also the green in the bank.

Many who live "off the grid" in isolated locations have traditionally relied on generators for electrical power. Others have installed generators for back-up, emergency electrical power. Neither thought there was a choice, but now there is a choice: solar power versus generator.

In this article, we look at the choice. Which is more economical; more convenient; more environmentally friendly? Should you make the change?

Solar Power versus Generator - Cost

The cost of solar power versus generator is much less over the long term.

The initial cost of a solar power system will be greater than that of a generator system. This is often the reason people install a generator rather than choose solar power. One must look beyond the initial cost, however, to get the full comparison of solar power versus generator.

* Solar power, once installed, has little maintenance or further expense. There is no fuel to purchase, since the sun's energy fuels the system.

* Generators are not so. After installation, a generator will require regular servicing by a professional every 6 months. Generators require fuel ? a cost that is constantly increasing. Moving generator parts must be replaced from time to time due to wear and tear.

Solar Power versus Generator ? Convenience

Convenience is another factor to consider when looking at solar power versus generator power. Solar power is much more convenient than generator power.

* Solar power may be less convenient to purchase and install, since it is not as widely available as generators. This is due to the currently small market for solar power. As the market increases, however, this will be less of a problem. Solar power systems have no moving parts to wear out or need lubrication. Once installed, solar power requires little attention. The user can almost forget it.

* Generators are widely available, so convenient to purchase and install. Convenience decreases after installation, though. A generator must be monitored frequently to be sure sufficient fuel is available. It must be refilled often when used as a regular source of power. Fuel must be ordered and delivery taken ? or fuel must be hauled by the owner. The system must be serviced twice a year. This servicing will include filter changes, an oil change, a tune up, and complete inspection of the entire unit. Worn parts must be replaced.

Solar Power versus Generator ? Efficiency

The solar power versus generator battle includes the matter of efficiency, too. Which is more cost-effective? The facts seem to point to solar power.

* Solar power is received in through the panels, free of cost, and stored in batteries. It is ready for use when needed, but in times of reduced usage, the power remains in storage.

* Generators run constantly, regardless of the amount of power being used at a given time. As they run, they consume costly fuel. When power usage is reduced in bright daylight, generators must continue to run.

Solar Power versus Generator ? Dependability

Some argue that, in comparing solar power versus generator, we must compare the dependability factor. In this area, they claim, generators win.

* Solar power is very dependable in locations that have bright sunlight 300+ days of the year. In areas with less sunlight, or during periods of cloudiness and storm, solar power is less dependable. The system will continue to provide power from charged batteries, but will eventually go dead. Having said that, it must be noted that Germany, which has far fewer sunny days than most of North America, is said to have much higher usage of solar power. The problem of dependability seems not that big.

* Generator systems do not depend on sunlight. They do, however, depend on fuel. If storms or some other disaster hinders one from replenishing the fuel supply, generators also become useless.

Solar Power versus Generator ? Eco-friendliness

Finally, eco-friendliness must be considered in any discussion of solar power versus generator. That is, which is kinder to the environment: solar power or generator? The obvious answer again is solar power.

* Solar power has no emissions when working. There is no pollution involved in fuel production ? no greenhouse gases. It is totally clean. Solar power uses a renewable energy source.

* A big drawback to generator use is still the matter of emissions and the environment. Generators are usually run on diesel fuel, and diesel fuel is produced from a fossil fuel. There are emissions in the production of the fuel, and also in its use. Diesel generators are a major source of air pollution and high sulfur levels in North America. Exposure to diesel generator exhaust can lead to health hazards.

Solar Power versus Generator ? the Solution

For most people, the resolution of the solar power versus generator debate is to install a hybrid system. Using solar power as the main energy source will save money. The fuel is free. Solar power is convenient, efficient, and eco-friendly. What it lacks in dependability can be made up by having a small back-up generator for prolonged cloudy periods.

My Choice

When I compare solar power versus generator, I definitely have to choose solar power. It is clean, free, quiet, and peaceful.

Website Design - How To Make Your Website A Powerful Lead Generator

Tips on Online Marketing

Eyes Wide Open designs and delivers websites for the sole purpose of generating leads and sales for your business. After years of experience with building our own website, and those of our clients, we can tell you there are some basic principles that need to be addressed if your website is going to get the phone ringing and drive sales.

How do you turn a basic website into a powerful lead generator? Getting traffic to your site is one thing and there are endless articles on the web about Search Engine Optimization and Search Engine Marketing. But what do you do with your website visitors to ensure they make an enquiry rather than just pass through?

Here are 2 of our hottest tips to increasing business sales and enquiries through your website.

1. Become Action Oriented

Lead generation is about people taking action. In any purchase process buyers complete a series of steps (referred to as the "Buyers Journey"), which results in an enquiry or spending money. You need to get very clear and specific about the actions you want people to take when they are visiting your website. If you can focus on 1 single action that's great. At least limit it to 2 or 3. Some examples of actions:

o Complete an enquiry form

o Confirm your credentials

o Define their problem

o Make a purchase

o Pick up the phone and call

Your aim is then to set up the website so it achieves that action simply and quickly. Remove anything that doesn't directly contribute to the process. Websites are there for the visitor's benefit not yours. Also, when writing for your website keep it brief and to the point. Use active verbs and give the visitor specific, simple instructions on what to do next.

2. Like Attracts Like

Know your target audience and be like them. Your website is often the first impression a company will have of you so make it count. So often people think of their website as a background marketing tool when its really the shop front for your business. A common example we see of this is websites pitching to senior corporate clients that are clearly homemade efforts. It's the online equivalent of turning up to an initial meeting with a CEO in daggy old shorts and t-shirt.

The personality and professionalism of your business needs to come through in your site. This doesn't mean you need an expensive flash animated website with all the bells and whistles but it does need to be well thought out.

Use Eyes Wide Open to Update Your Website

If you don't have the time, or the know-how, or would value some objectivity, then get EWO to develop your online strategy and update your website. We have the in-house resources to build your website from scratch or refine your existing website to make it a powerful lead generation tool.
