Last Sunday I had 1190 subscribers on my list. Now I have 1979, so I will probably get to 2k tomorrow as I have around 800 banked clicks that I am waiting to receive, as well as a 100 click solo. 50 of them was imported from my old list, so I have increased my list with 739 new subscribers this week. Some of them came from overdelivery on solos [...]

My goal for this week was adding 100 new subscribers to my list per day. My list had 650 subscribers last Sunday. Right now I have 1190 (minus 50 that I imported from my other list), which means I need to add another 210 subscribers today to reach my goal. I have purchased 400 clicks, so that should bring in 150+ subscribers. Hoping for good conversions and over delivery I [...]

I started a new list with GetResponse Friday 26th and I now have around 650 subscribers in about a week. If you’ve read any of my initial posts on this blog, you will know that I have purchased subscribers from other people to kickstart my business. My advice to anyone thinking of doing the same is, don’t! My new list gets a much higher open % and click %, so [...]

About two weeks ago I wrote a quick post about an article I came across that was showing a significant increase in conversions just by changing simple things on the landing page. You can read about that here. A couple of days ago I purchased a 100 click solo and put up two almost identical pages. 20 clicks is not much, but I quickly noticed where this was heading. The [...]

I found a really cool background image that I wanted to use on my InstaBuilder squeeze page. The problem was that the man in the photo was covered by my optin box, so I wanted to make my optin box transparent. To fix that issue I had to create a custom instabuilder template and here is how you can accomplish that. First download one of the instabuilder templates to your [...]

I have been searching high and low for great places to find new background images for my squeeze page. The google image search can be used to search only for images that can be used commercially (settings -> advanced search). Sxc.hu is a stock photography site with free images, but the photos there are not of the best quality. Another option for finding free images to use on your website [...]

I came across a really interesting blog posts that is showing 10 case studies of how minor tweaks can have a huge increase in conversion. Just by changing the word “you” to “my” on the payment button he was able to increase the conversion with 90%. Check out all the case studies here. So if you’re not already split testing your squeeze pages to improve them, you should definitely be [...]

I did a swap with someone in the solo swap syndicate group yesterday. After sending the e-mail to my list I noticed that the stats in my outgoing link tracker showed a lot of clicks very quickly. At first I thought that my new headline and body copy experiment was really brilliant, but I soon discovered that I wasn’t so brilliant. Something strange was going on that was causing a [...]

Since starting in the solo ad business I’ve had a ton of problems and gone through a lot of frustrations. Start – Purchased a solo ad business at flippa. Frustration 1: Ebizac no longer allowed list imports, so couldn’t get the list imported. Frustration 2: Getresponse wouldn’t allow me to import my list. Frustration 3: Lisninjas deliverability sucked, so I had to find something else. Frustration 4: Interspire e-mail marketing [...]

I had my first coaching session with Gary last Wednesday. My list will be up and running again this coming Wednesday. Also purchased 5000 subscribers, so on Wednesday I am ready to rock. My solo ads sales page is already completed, so as soon as I have my subscribers imported into my new autoresponder I am ready to start selling some solo ads. Since my list is offline at the moment, [...]
