Wix Free Website Builder Review


So, you want to create your own website? Well, for most people that are starting some sort of business, they know they need one...but they're not that technical. That's where solutions like Wix comes in.

If you're a small or local retail business or you're an agency providing simple templated professional websites for local businesses is an excellent solution. It provides a lot of simple tools and features that allows someone that is not a designer or programmer to go from nothing at all to a live website in a very short amount of time.

Now, if you are an "internet marketer" or in the affiliate marketing or make money online space, Wix is probably not the best solution for you, because in my experience they have a lot of unnecessary upsells on the backend. So, if you're building niche affiliate SEO or authority blogs or websites, it's a much better idea to just pay for your own separate domain and hosting and install Wordpress. You'll save quite a bit more money this way, but again, for the complete non-techy person who is just looking to setup a quick an easy website without having to have any technical skills whatsoever, Wix is a great solution.

Backlinks Indexer Review


When it comes to SEO, making sure your links and pages get indexed is a big of ensuring your website ranks high in the major search engines. Now, websites will eventually get indexed over time anyway, however, sometimes it's good to give them a little boost, especially if you're doing affiliate SEO or ranking sites for clients and you need results a bit more quickly.

For that there are link indexing services, and for the longest time I personally didn't see much of a point to use them. I thought they were mainly for blackhat SEO, which I wasn't much involved in. But recently I tried out a service called Backlinks Indexer, which was created by a well-respected person in the SEO community, and it actually does work.

The great thing about these services is that they're extremely affordable, and with Backlinks Indexer, it's pretty much set and forget. It's gets your newly published pages and posts indexed much faster and I've seen great results.

So, if you're heavily involved in SEO and have lots of affiliate sites or a network of large authority sites, or you are doing SEO for clients, or you're involved in blackhat SEO and run linkbuilding softwares like Magic Submitter and SEnuke, then you might seriously consider investing in one of these link indexing services.

Traffic Travis Review


If you are involved in the SEO space, one of the most important components is finding the right keywords to go after. A lot of times, however, that can be pretty tricky and you want to make sure that you're not selecting keywords that will take you forever and ever to rank for. Because the name of the game online is traffic. As long as you're getting real visitors to your site, there's a very good chance you're going to eventually make sales. So, you want to pick keywords that are going to both bring you visitors and that you can also rank one page one for in a relatively reasonable amount of time.

Now, when it comes to keyword research tools, there are literally dozens that do mostly the same things, you just have to pick the one that best fits your needs, that works, and that you like to use. Some of the more popular ones include Long Tail Pro and SECockpit, however, a very prominent SEO friend of mine who currently does over $40k/month from just SEO alone, highly recommends Traffic Travis.

Traffic Travis has actually been around for quite some time, I just have never heard other marketers talk much about it or promote it. They do have a FREE version for you to download and try, but I also know they have a paid version, which probably has a lot more features and benefits. So, if you're serious about being the best at your SEO and you're looking for a keyword research tool that can give you an edge over your competition, check out Traffic Travis.

Buzzsumo Review


Viral content. While it's all the craze, it's kind of tough to consistently come up with catchy headlines and interesting topics to write about. Luckily, there's a cool tool called Buzzsumo, which shows you tons of trending articles about a particular keyword or topic or on a specific site.

This is an especially useful tool for bloggers, people that manage and curate for viral sites and networks, or agencies that are responsible for posting content that will be well liked and shared on social media.

So, if you are any of the above mentioned groups, Buzzsumo will definitely be a great investment. If not, it probably won't. However, if you're having writer's block on what next interesting blog post to write about, you can still use it's search to get a handful of popular trending topics to use as ideas.

Market Samurai Review


Market Samurai was one of the first keyword research tools I came across back in the day around 2009, so it's been around for quite some time now and to my knowledge they still update and support it.

What I like best about it is that it is an Adobe Air application, which means it runs on both Mac and PC and that it's a one time only price, no recurring charges.

Market Samurai is actually a suite of tools all combined into one easy-to-use software. It does keyword research as well as competition analysis along with several other features and functions.

The easiest way to learn all about the features is to visit the Noble Samurai Dojo and watch all the video tutorials they have put together. From there, you can download the software, which has a free trial. But, when you download the trial, be prepared to purchase it within the next couple days, because if nothing has changed since when I invested in it a few years back, you should be presented with a special discounted offer a few days into your trial. That's the lowest you'll ever be able to purchase Market Samurai and if you don't take action, in order to get the same price, you'll need to download another copy using a different email address.

All in all, Market Samurai is a worthy investment if you are building lots of niche affiliate sites and authority SEO sites and you're looking for an easy-to-use tool to give you some insights into which keywords would be easiest for you to go after for whatever niche or keyword you are targeting.

Market Samurai is kind of like a swiss army knife and keyword research is just one of its features. If you're looking for a tool that is centered solely around helping you find targeted long tail keywords suggestions and ideas that you can easily rank for, I suggest Long Tail Pro.

Kayako Review


Help desk software. Boring, I know. But eventually, you may get around to needing a solution for it in your online business. Especially if you are servicing thousands of customers either with: evergreen products, membership or continuity programs, or SaaS services.

There are certainly several options out there when it comes to help desk and support softwares, but one of the ones that has definitely stood out to me as a customer over the years is Kayako. Several large brands are clients and I've seen a number of big internet marketers who use their service and have been for several years. So, if you're in the market for a robust and scalable help desk solution for your growing online business, definitely check out Kayako.

As an alternative, if you're just looking for a quality FREE help desk and support solution, and you're a bootstrap business and not quite at the point where you actually need to hire someone yet, then I would recommend Freshdesk, since they have a forever free plan.
