* PRODUCT REVIEW * James Schramko's Traffic Grab James Schramko's Traffic Grab is a comprehensive traffic system covering just about every method of generating or 'grabbing' traffic to your website. Traffic Grab is ideal for those starting out in Internet marketing and also has plenty of tips and tricks for experienced Internet marketers. The system covers everything from how to set up your website, to how to buy traffic, to how to convert traffic into sales, to how to leverage the entire system for even more traffic and results. Traffic Grab includes six modules: research, content, site, traffic, conversions and leverage. As James Schramko reveals, although it's called Traffic Grab, the Traffic Grab system is NOT about getting traffic for the sake of it. James's Traffic Grab system is, as the name suggests, a SYSTEM that includes what you need to know - including how to do research, create content, set up your website, optimize for conversions, etc - for maximizing and MONETIZING targeted web traffic. James says his course goes broad, rather than deep, but it's probably broad AND deep enough for most Internet marketers. In fact, Traffic Grab not only covers more traffic methods than many Internet marketers will probably get around to, but actually takes you step by step through all those traffic methods. Sure, if you want to become a master at search engine optimization (SEO) there are many more strategies, tactics and techniques than James could possibly cover in a general system. Even so, Traffic Grab is worth devouring before you decide how much time, effort, money and other resources you want to invest in SEO. Apart from giving you detailed steps for each traffic method covered, Traffic Grab is full of real examples and tools you can use. Plus, it gives you a sense of the kind of thinking and approach it takes to be successful online. It's no accident that Traffic Grab has a few affiliate links here and there, or that it is so full of resources. James Schramko is an entrepreneur who walks his talk. And the reason why Traffic Grab is so full of resources is because James is extremely resourceful. Actually, if you take nothing out of Traffic Grab apart from the importance of being resourceful, then that in itself may make Traffic Grab a worthwhile investment. Of course, you will get much more out of Traffic Grab than that, provided you roll up your sleeves and do the work. Yes, Traffic Grab shows you exactly what to do to boost your website traffic, but you'll still need to do the work. If you're not prepared to put in numerous hours of sometimes very mundane work, then Traffic Grab is not for you. I should also note that although it's perfect for new Internet marketers, Traffic Grab does assume you have some knowledge of the Internet and Internet marketing. You should already know how to register a domain name, what you want to sell, and how to set up a website (or know how to get other people to do that for you!). Traffic Grab is available online and gives you lots of different options for learning the material. There are videos, audios, slides and a big 303 page transcript of the entire course in an easy to read format (perfect as a reference tool later on). Traffic Grab is also inexpensive - just a one-off $79.95. And if you're not sure whether Traffic Grab will teach you what you want to know, you can 'try before you buy' by watching the first few modules for FREE. All in all, Traffic Grab is a solid system covering all the latest, as well as tried and true, methods for generating web traffic. For more details visit Traffic Grab.

* KIKABINK LAB * Conversion Dynamo – A Time-Based Incentive Tool To Increase Conversions Fuse Visual has launched Conversion Dynamo, a new plug-in system designed to incentivize first-time web visitors to sign-up, buy, or engage in some other transaction you want them to take when they visit your website. Conversion Dynamo detects a new visitor and lets you offer a one-time incentive to complete a transaction within a limited amount of time set by you. By presenting visitors with a limited amount of time in which to complete the transaction they are encouraged to take action then and there.
Not only is Fuse Visual offering a free one-month trial to Conversion Dynamo, but you can also test it out without signing up or buying anything. Just enter your site name and click on 'view your site' and a page will appear showing you how Conversion Dynamo will look and work on your site.
Conversion Dynamo is easy to set up (in around 5 minutes apparently) and doesn't require you to have any programming knowledge beyond being able to copy and paste three lines of code. You can change incentives at any time, set whatever time limits you want, and also see how other users are using the tool to increase conversions on their sites. Conversion Dynamo costs $49 to set up and $99.99 per annum. Click here to comment on this article
