Setting Up and Opt-in Box on Your Blog

If you are not familiar with what an opt-in box is, you should be. So, go over to www.mattbacak.com and look on the right hand side just below the fold (which I think is a perfect place to position this) and you will see I have an opt-in box for people to sign up to my newsletter. After they sign up, I now have one more person on my list to sell things to in the future.

Now, you have set up a blog and you want to be able to capture people’s names and email addresses in the same way, however the blogging platform you are using doesn’t give you this option. So the question is, how do you go about adding an opt-in box to your blog site.

Well, the first thing you have to do is get the form. So, find an opt-in form you like either from your other website, squeeze page or somebody else’s site and copy it by looking at and locating the source code for the page it’s on. Place the code into a text file for now so you can refer back to it.

The next thing you want to do is go into your blog and try to add the new code into your blog template. So, find the code for your template and copy it into an html editor such as FrontPage. Once you’ve done that, copy and paste the opt-in form code into the template and view your changes by previewing them.

When you have the form looking the way you want it, copy and paste the code back into you blog template on your blog site. Click on the “view blog” link to make sure everything looks proper and correct. If it looks good then you’re finished otherwise you’ll have to go back in and change the location of your code until it looks right.

As you already are aware, opt-in boxes are necessary in order to capture the names and contact information of your prospects. You want to be able to sell to them again and again so you need to gain access to their contact information. Opt-in forms also known as squeeze pages can make you a bundle of cash. As long as you have and own your own list, you now have a business that you can grow because you have people who are interested in what it is you have to offer.

Take the time to create an opt-in box on your blog to start gaining ownership of your business.

How do you get people’s complete address info so that you can send them postcards, newsletters, etc.?

Now this is a very good question because a lot of people don’t feel comfortable giving you all their personal information. So, how can you do this in the shortest time possible without having to sell them something first? Easy!!…You bribe them.

As long as you have something of value to offer, you have a potential bargaining tool to use to get information. You can say something like “I’ll tell you what, if you fill in your information in the form below, I will send you a link to where you can get more information on this”. Now this is just an example, but I’m sure you get my point. People always love getting something good for free….well almost free….and the fact that they’ve maybe familiarized themselves with you and your site builds even more trust.

Another thing I do is bribe them with an audio download or something they can download instantly. The easier you make it for them to receive their gift, the more likely they will be to give you their information.

I may also put in a little disclaimer at the bottom telling them that their information is safe and will not be sold or retransmitted in any form for any other purposes. This is always a good idea because people are sick and tired of receiving unsolicited spam emails and this will just build more confidence and credibility on your behalf.

Another thing you can do is just tell them the truth of why you are requesting this information. If they know it is to send them a newsletter with valuable tips inside or coupons for products or promotions in the future, then this too can be a tremendous bargaining tool!!

So don’t be afraid to ask because of some preconceived notion you have about invading people’s privacy. Don’t forget, you are giving them something for it. When you can offer something in return it makes getting what you need a whole lot easier. The more good stuff you have to offer, the better are your chances for success.

Blog for Rankings

When you create a blog it’s a great way to express yourself and at the same time inform your audience what’s going on. But it’s also a great way to improve your rankings in the search engines. Let me explain.

If you want to get to the top because you’re seeing your competition dominate you in your niche, it’s time to take action!

So, let’s just say you’ve submitted an article to an article directory site like ezinearticles.com but you were seeing someone else in your niche dominate you in the search engines. Well, it’s time for you to knock them out of that top position and take over. How do you do this? It’s simple!

If you want your article to appear at the top of the search engines all you have to do is blog that link! Basically, every article that you post to an article directory site like EzineArticles.com (which gets huge traffic I might add), you simply place a link to that article on your blog. For example, if it was www.Ezinearticles.com/adoption/how_to_adopt_a_child, because that’s your niche, if that was your actual article, then you should go and blog that link. Whatever that link is where your article is located you blog the link. But just make sure when you do that you sound very natural in your recommendation for your visitors to visit that link. Whatever you do don’t sound salesy or desperate to get the traffic.

Say something like: “Hey, check out these pages. I was doing a search on Google and I found these sites where people had posted information about me. I’m so flattered. You should go check them out.” Basically what I did that for is not for people to go check them out – I really didn’t care about that. What I did that for is so my sites would be pulled up higher in the search engines. So, when I did a search, I would be at the top of the search engines in my niche and my competition would fall in their rankings. This is an excellent strategy that has always worked for me. If you check out my blog at MattBacak.com you’ll see several places where I’ve used this strategy… and it works like a charm!

So, go and find all the links out there that are indexed with Google. For any of your competition that has started to creep in on your space use this strategy to pull you up higher in the search engines. Your competition will have no idea what hit them ;)

Matt Bacak

Have you ever heard of Ron LeGrand?

Ron is known as the nation’s leading expert
and trainer on Quick Turn Real Estate. Even so,
that’s not what this email is about.

You see, over the past 20 years he’s been
hiding a secret only his top students know.

This secret has led him to over $50,000,000
in product sales in the last 3 years alone.and
it has nothing to do with real estate.

What I’m talking about is Information Marketing.

In fact, Ron’s company Global Publishing is a
$20+ million per year information marketing business.

The reason I’m writing you today is Ron has
recently released a video sharing his company’s
tips, tricks and dirty little secrets to his
explosive growth over the years.

Watch the video here:

==> http://www.infomarketingexposed.com/

It’s a very candid and open look at how Ron went
from selling $10 books to creating a multi-million
dollar information marketing empire. What’s even
more important is he walks you through how to
duplicate his success on your own.

Watch the video here:

==> http://www.InfoMarketingExposed.com/matt

Information marketing is the perfect business
for anyone who wants to quickly create a solid six
or even seven figure income from your own home
practically on autopilot. Ron tells you how.

To watch the video simple visit:

I would imagine his competitors are dying to
get their hands on this information. I don’t know
how long he’s planning on keeping the video up
so I suggest you act now.

How to Dominate Your Niche – Part 2

Now I hope you have already set up a blog and submitted your articles to your new blog site, your website and to article sites. If you follow these steps first you’re off to a great start.

With those things completed I know you can get to the top with your keywords simply by doing the following:

Start a Squidoo Lense. Simply go to and basically take some of your articles and go and create a quick – what’s called a lens. Create some quick lenses. Make sure that whatever keywords that you want to dominate for… use those keywords inside your lens.

It’ll be really important when you’re creating your lens to also give it a name that is typically used in your website URL. So like, for example, mine is “make money on the internet” or something like that. So my squidoo lens read as “squidoo.com/make_money_on_the_internet”. So whatever I named it actually became part of my squidoo lens URL. Basically, whatever keyword you want to it to appear for, make that be your URL. Basically create a couple of those lenses for those domains.

The next thing I want you to do is I want you to go to MySpace. I want you to create a MySpace account and set up another blog. Now, take that same article and post it there. The reason for that is because your MySpace account is going to start taking over in that position to help you dominate your niche.

Now if you are launching a book and you’ve told your list or even if you haven’t this is a good strategy to use… Let’s say you’ve got your pre-release. Have your publisher go to
AmazonConnect.com and see if you can get your pre-release book out there. Now, once you’ve been on Amazon (once you have joined AmazonConnect), then you can have a blog on Amazon! This is really cool because now you can create your own Amazon blog. Talk about credibility!

Then I want you to take your same article that you used in your previous blogs and article sites and I want you to post it on Amazon. This is going to get you to start taking over those search positions in your niche.

In any event, simply find places that are highly reputable and start putting your information on them so that you can pull yourself up and start dominating your niche! I’m sure if you follow part one and part two of my articles on dominating your niche, you’ll see how easy it is to quickly move to the top with just a bit of extra effort. It’s well worth it!

How to Dominate Your Niche – Part 1

Have you ever searched for a high demand keyword in your niche in Google or any of the major search engines and realized that your competitor was ahead of you for that specific keyword? Yup, their search position was ahead of you so that means more people or going to their site instead of yours. Well, today is your lucky day because I have the formula that will take you to a higher position and move you further ahead. Now your page rank will be better than theirs! Sound impossible? Well it’s not. If you follow my fool-proof process, you’re sure to rise above your competition for the keyword in question.

The first thing you need to do is set up a Blog. Just go to Blogger.com and set up an account for that specific website niche you’re trying to dominate. The reason for this is that you want to come up as the first person to have written about a specific topic in your niche. This allows you to claim your content and will show everyone (even the haters) that you are the authority and came up with the content first since Blogger date stamps your posts. This will hinder any copycatters from stealing your information. However, by posting to your blog your content is also picked up faster by the search engines. This will help you get more traffic.

Next you need to take that same article you posted to your blog and post it to your website also known as your branding site. This ensures your content is on your site first before anyone else – even before they are picked up by articles sites. Since you have not submitted your article to be used again and again on article sites yet, nobody can steal your content since it’s branded on your site.

Next, you need to write articles. Articles are a great way to garner more traffic especially if you submit your article to big article sites like EzineArticles.com. Google loves this site because it gets a ton of traffic and provides good content. And if your article is posted on a high page ranking site like this google will boost your article to the top of the search engines!

These are the first steps you need to take to begin dominating your niche. In part two of this article, I’m going to give you more ways to help you take over top positions in your niche. So for now, implement the above tips and start your dominiche process now.
