Firepow Software Review
I feel there are so many angles from which I could make a review of Andrew Hansen’s new blogging software Firepow.
I thought I might focus here on one particular element of the program which I consider to be particularly intregal to the success of a blogger, namely, the ability to drive traffic to their blog.
If you’ve ever started a blog, or any form of website trying to earn some cash, you’ll know it’s not exactly a case of “if you build it they will come”.
Even a great blog doesn’t guarantee traffic and a major part of a bloggers focus has to be spreading the word about their blog in a variety of ways in order to continually increase traffic and profits.
Sure, I could have talked about the blog creation and management aspects of Firepow, which I know so many new online marketers and bloggers will find so valuable. But for me, I’m more concerned about how the program can help a user increase traffic and make more money.
Anyway, that said – I thought I’d make a brief mention of some such features of the program in order to open your eyes to the ways this program might be as much a benefit to you as I predict it will be for me.
The first thing I like, or perhaps category of thing I like, is the ability the user has to easily generate backlinks to their blog once it’s up and running.
When you start a new blog, you want enough search engine spider juice to your site to have it able to rank well for long tail uncompetitive keywords, purely by on page optimization, within a few days of being created.
In addition to giving you powerful on page optimization capabilities (like allowing you to set the meta data AND h1h2 tag data for every post or page), Firepow lets you quickly generate the spider juice you need to get indexed and potentially ranking for an uncompetitive term.
For example, as soon as your site is created, you can click a button to have your RSS feed submitted to a bunch of RSS directories. You’ll get some valuable link backs, plus some great spider activity right off the bat. Not to mention the ping from your post.
Furthermore, if you choose to, you could use a tool called BlogLove Builder, to quickly and easily implement a trackback to a popular blog post within your own blogs first post – and instantly generate more link juice, and even a few visitors right from the get go too!
Furthermore, if you focus on search engine traffic you’ll know about the importance of link building in locking in long term rankings. Initial spider juice can get you a quick ranking, but for a LASTING ranking, you need an assortment of relevant quality backlinks establishing your page as an authority on that keyword.
Firepow has that more than covered, giving you the ability to obtain links from social networks, blog comments, and in content links from Firepow’s own network of high PageRank blog sites as well.
I stress that even what I’ve mentioned here isn’t close to all of the tools Firepow gives you to drive traffic to your site. And it’s for that reason among many that ‘m recommending all my blog readers to check it out for themselves.

Niche Blogging Institute Review
By now, unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably heard about the power that blogs have as a tool for generating traffic and helping you make more money in your online business.
But “blogs” themselves aren’t a “strategy”. They’re a tool. And just like a hammer wouldn’t be an effective tool if you swung it at your finger instead of the nail, a blog isn’t an effective tool unless you use it as part of a solid marketing strategy.
A guy I usually listen to when it comes to using blogs for making money online is Andrew Hansen. Andrew’s claim to fame is his strategy for combining blogs with affiliate marketing, and various free traffic generation methods, to create passive income revenue streams that can remain profitable for a long time.
Part of this strategy is to use blogs NOT as an every day blogger who’s focused on pulitzer prize winning content, generating of mouth and creating link bait… but instead to use blogs as a simple content management system that can assist in getting fast search rankings for highly profitable keywords in order to generate high conversion rates on affiliate offers.
As Andrew says, blogs are perfect for this purpose because they are easy for anyone to set up, don’t require any coding knowledge, but come with features that most regular websites don’t have that can be leveraged for extreme advantages in the search engines, like RSS Feeds, pinging and others.
Interestingly he also points out how blogs while traditionally aren’t known for their ability to create high clickthrough or conversion rates on “offers” (including presells or direct sales offers) can in fact be tweaked to leverage some of the MOST powerful conversion boosters and can thus become high conversion selling machines.
Andrew’s just about to release a new “Institute” to teach people more about these strategies for profiting through “niche blogging” and he’s put out some really interesting FREE videos that you can check out to learn some quality actionable steps to making money from your blogs, or STARTING to make some blogs that will generate passive income for you too.

After you check them out, be sure to come back and let me know what you think.
