Top Software
and Services
These are the software products
and online services (many are free) that I actually use on a
daily basis to
quickly research/create
websites and then effectively drive traffic to these new sites!
Note: A couple of
the linked websites use a bit of hard-sell marketing on their sales pages but if you can
get past this marketing style, you can be assured that the
actual product or service they offer is truly top notch and
something that I actually use!
Most of these companies provide videos of their products in
action which is helpful in determining their value for your
needs. Take some time, check the products out, watch their
demo videos, and you will see as I
have, that they will be valuable tools for you to use in your
online business development.
1) Keyword and
Niche Research
Keyword Country
Discover the keywords with which your
target audience is searching and make a huge keyword list.
Sort and filter your keyword list by search volume,
competition, clicks or more to narrow your list down to most
profitable keywords. Finds the latest in-trend keywords
with world's first web crawler based keyword research tool.
This service has so many powerful features and tools that
you may find that you don't use every component, but you
should at least check them all out. I use Keyword Country
every day!
Niche Horde
Niche Horde is an automated tool that does the work of
finding profitable niche markets for you. It
continually builds its database of niche markets from the
user base 24/7! This is the perfect tool to use in
brainstorming for that
perfect niche website idea. I then perfect and polish this idea with
Keyword Country to get the exact keywords to target and
develop a domain name.

Google Keyword Tool Use
the FREE Google Keyword Tool to get additional
keyword ideas.
Good Keywords The Keyword
Database tool in this FREE software download is able
to get more out of Google Keyword research! A big plus is
that the software does not abuse Google's resources in
anyway!
2) Domain
Registration and Hosting
NameCheap
This is my preferred domain registration site without
question. They are so good that I register about 90% of my
domains with them. (Use with HostGator.)
HostGator This is my
preferred website hosting service. I have never had
any downtime and their customer service is amazing! They
host all of my Wordpress sites.
1 & 1 If I want to
quickly and easily
register and host a domain with a single service and do not
plan to use Wordpress, 1 & 1 is the perfect service solution
for my website needs. Other than the NameCheap + HostGator
combination this is the only other service that I use on a
regular basis (although I have tried many other companies).


3) Article
Creation
Instant Article Factory
Write quality articles in 5 minutes or less on virtually any
subject. Includes 17 built-in templates make it easy to
write a variety of articles for any subject. The templates
are regularly rewritten from scratch to ensure unique
content continues despite a large user base.
If you visit the site there is a 11 minute video that
shows exactly how Instant Article Factory works by using a
real example (not just hype)! It is kind of a "fill in
the blank" concept with some of the content prewritten, but
it is much more powerful than that. I usually write my own
articles (or pay to have them written for me) but if you
want something that can help you to create well written
articles easily and very quickly, then this tool works just
as promised!
Answer Analyst
Research topics by asking questions, then create content faster than
you dreamed possible with this powerful software tool.
There is a 10 minute video that shows exactly how Answer
Analyst works with a real example!
Remember that
Answer Analyst is a research tool, so be sure not to quote the
material directly. Include the targeted facts and research in
your own words just as any author or journalist would (do not
plagiarize).
My Article Express
My Article Express (MAX) is a high quality reasonably
priced outsourced article writing service. The resulting
well written articles can be used in a variety of ways
including being automatically sent to Unique Article
Wizard which will Turbo charge your article marketing
and article submission by submitting a different unique

quality, custom written articles based on the
specific topics you enter. They employ a very large staff of
qualified writers (well over 100). These writers monitor the
article topics as they come in, and then write articles day

Instant Article Wizard Create top-quality articles on any subject in 15 minutes

around which to create a top-quality article. Next, Instant
Article Wizard will do research for you! You are taken
step-by-step through the selection of research ideas for

paragraphs, and your concluding paragraphs. Remember to take
the concepts developed from the material and make them your

4) Article
Spinning (Creating multiple highly unique versions of articles you have
already written or for which you have PLR rights.)
Rapid Rewriter (Windows
and Mac) This amazing product combines two powerful article
spinning techniques (sentence replacement and synonym
substitution) into one seamless smooth piece of
software. Watch the video on their site (after a promo
section you will see the software in action). This is
the spinner that I use to create unique versions of
all of my articles. It will
submit article versions to five top article directories and
also can format output into the special styles used by
Article Marketing Automation, SEO Linkvine and Unique
Article Wizard (if you belong to any or all of these
excellent services). Submitting through all 3 of these
services at the same time will gradually (no red flags)
result in your article appearing (in acceptably unique
versions) on literally thousands of websites with valuable
one-way links back to your site! Google and the other
search engines will not punish you for posting duplicate
content because they will not see as duplicates. This is the
perfect product !!! Bundled with some
bonus products also.
The Best Spinner
This article spinner subscription service is synonym
based. You can turn your article into just one or thousands
of new unique article. There are currently over one million
synonyms in the database. Allows unlimited nested
spinning -- so you can go as many levels deep as you want.
Different color coding is used for up to four levels of
nesting. You can also quickly produce a single article
rewrite with the built in "word replacement" feature.
Visit the site for a 15 minutes video that shows all of the
features in action!
Jetspinner
A limited function but free article
spinner that might be all you need.
5) Article
Creation plus Submission
Unique Article Wizard
This is NOT the "latest and greatest" fad. It will not
be "worn out" in the next month or two. My friend Noel
Swanson has developed a way to greatly enhance and simplify
the already well-established process of article writing and
submission. This basic technique is being quietly used by
all the smartest marketers - but that has now been brought
to a whole new level of simplicity and power. By working
with one basic article you will be able to modify it to
create hundreds of different article and submit them to both
broad based and narrowly focused article directories and
niche blogs all at the same time! Unique Article Wizard
also will supply you with unique, targeted articles to use
on your blog or website at no additional charge!
Article Marketing Automation
This service allows you to create hundreds of unique and
very high quality articles from any article that you have
written (or had written for you). AMA will then gradually
and automatically send out these new unique versions that it
creates, to targeted blogs and websites across the internet
where they will appear and link back to you desired website!
6) Article Submission
SEOLinkVine This service allows you to submit
articles and get up to thousands of high quality, one-way
links pointing to your website. All links will be
"in-content" links on high quality, related websites of your
choice. All done on auto-pilot! This is unlike any
other article marketing service online. Their system will take your
article and distribute it throughout a network of thousands of
sites, publish it, and start building you one-way backlinks (and
traffic)! The sites in the article network are real sites owned by
real people just like you and me. These sites want to be able to
post your articles because they don't want to take the time to write
it. Everyone benefits from the process!
EzineArticles The most respected
and highest indexed free ezine article submission site that exists. If you were
to send your articles to only one free ezine site this would be the
place! I own sites that have received thousands of visitors directly from ezinearticles.com and also from sites that have subsequently
published my articles (via backlinks). Your articles are
managed by
proprietary management software designed to give you maximum
exposure to hundreds of thousands of
daily visitors and an email newsletter publisher audience
who EACH have thousands, tens of thousands or even hundreds
of thousands of email list members of their own, at no cost
to you. That means your original articles and expertise
can
be exposed for free to hundreds of thousands or even
millions of people rather than waiting passively for someone
to syndicate it on yet another website with no traffic.
Google loves ezinearticles.com and I have had dozens of
article get indexed and placed on the first page of Google
in just a day or two after submission!
Other excellent free article
submission sites:
ArticleDashboard.com
ArticleCity.com
GoArticles.com
SearchWarp.com
7) Video Article Conversion and
Submission

slick video in just a few click. Remember that Google and
the other search engines quickly index most video content!

automatically to 30+ video sharing websites, saving
you hours of precious time. I use this product in
conjunction with Instant Video Articles!

run. The profit can be quicker than with many other methods.

wet with more basic concepts, but I am starting to see some real profit growth from
