STEAL THESE BLOGS… or at least steal some good ideas from them on how to do your own blog…
Wow, the launch I just did for my Market Annihilator Program was insane. Sold out all 150 slots in less than a week… not bad for a $2,000.00 product in a niche that's used to $37 products.
A few things we're a paramount part of the process.
One was relationships - the fact that Ryan Lee, Pat Rigsby, Jim Labadie and Bedros Keuilian all promoted it for me didn't hurt.
Those guys have all been in the fitness marketing business a long time and have email lists WAY bigger than mine
So that was huge…
But there was something that was key to building the relationships with these guys… and that was …

Hey guys, damn… this blog keeps more and more popular… 8039 visitors last Saturday… pretty crazy for a regular ol' dude like me who just wants to ride his Harley, watch cool movies and hang it with his friends and family. I mean it's not like I'm some big guru or something.

And if you haven't done so already, be sure to opt-in for my free Kick Back Life Fitness Marketing updates… I'll also send you a link to a secret video that shows how you can make a lot more money and work a lot less hours from using little known underground Internet marketing tactics.

And the second thing you wanna do is go check out a free Internet marketing video out that I made http://www.marketannihilator.com/, but here's the thing… I don't want any of the big corporate health clubs or fitness centers to get their hands on. it… so let's keep it between you and me… at least for now.
This video is especially for you… my loyal die-hard blog readers. And the information in it is super powerful… so let's keep it on the down low for now so we can keep kickin' some serious ass and making a ton of money in the fitness industry.
This video will show you…

I tested out a new blog posting formula I've been working on and it worked out KILLER
Basically I put together a little formula called the 'Ultimate Blog Post' and then I fused that with what one of good friends Clay Collins ( who is one of the top bloggers and Social Networking Evil Geniuses around) calls 'Social Media Sex Appeal'…
Clay doesn't even know I did this post yet and I know he's never really shared that information with anyone… so when he sees this post he might ask me to take it down… we'll see… he's super cool so hopefully he won't but you never know.
So basically I wrote post following this formula and in one 24 hour period I got 8039 visitors to my blog…
…plus lots of opt-ins, a low bounce rate, high page views and a high "time on site"
What's really cool about this post is that it's the quickest post I ever wrote… it took about half an hour to actually write it and I think did it watching an episode of "The Office" ( I love that show)
One of the coolest and most interesting cats I've hung out with recently is a guy by the name of Clay Collins. Clay is a well known blogger and a professional "Day Job Killer"
But I want to warn you about Clay before you listen to the interview. You see Clay has EVIL POWERS… let me explain…
When I first met Clay, it was at one of these huge Internet marketing conferences that I've been known to frequent from time to time. And me and Clay hit it off right away. Well, one night when we we're out getting a bite to eat with a couple of other Internet marketing die-hards Clay says something to me that I'll never forget…
He says to me "Do you want a lot of free traffic fast? If ya do man… just let me know, I can get you TONS of traffic and I can do with just the few clicks of a button… it's what I do"
Now I'm pretty good at getting targeted traffic to my sites, but let's just say Clay's offer sounded tempting. So I said to Clay "I'm game, what do you need me to do?"
And Clay says "Just write a really good blog post and…
Recently I had a chance to grill Fitness Anti-Guru Scott Tousignant on some of his cutting edge social media marketing techniques.
Scott is known as The Fit Bastard and has created a persona in the fitness industry that helps him get massive amounts of attention, build long term relationships with his customers and separates him from all the other fitness gurus out there.
Persona building is huge and very few people in our industry understand this. If you do it correctly, you'll make a mark that'll become legendary… and oh yeah… you'll put a hell of a lotta money into your pocket as well.
Scott is also one of the rare fitness entrepreneurs who really understands how to market a fitness business on the Internet while at the same time adding massive value to the web.
If you want your fitness business to flourish on the web these days you're definitely gonna wanna listen to what Scott has to say, because the internet is changing dramatically and if you don't stay ahead of the curve there's a good chance your business is going to fail.
Recently I had a chance to interview a guy I feel is by far one of the best bloggers on the web. His name is Jonathan Fields and he is definitely one of the most interesting entrepreneurs you're ever gonna meet… the guy's a true renegade who lives by his own rules and values…
One of the cool things about Jonathan is his story. He went from being a high powered hedge-fund lawyer to a $12-an-hour personal trainer to the owner of an amazingly-successful fitness studio to the owner of one of the top Yoga studios and Yoga schools in the country to a pro-blogger and now has a book coming out called 'Career Renegade'... whew… that was a mouthful… and that list doesn't even come close to everything he does.
Jonathan is also a fitness junkie, a serial entrepreneur, a hired copywriter and consultant and the proud father of a six year old girl named Jesse.
I just got back from StomperNet Live 6 in Atlanta and I can say that the Stomper events just keep on getting better and better.
Along with guys like Sherman Hu, Andy Edmunds and Dave Taylor… I hung out with Chuck Lewis The Seo Rapper, Chuck raps about search engine optimization and internet marketing, how cool is that?
And here's me and Andy Jenkins, the CEO of Stompernet and one of the most successful ( and friggin' nuts) Internet marketers alive. The guy's helping a ton of people to make a lot of money and is one of the funniest dudes I know…
A lot of trainers these days ask me how to get their sites higher in the search engines.. and it's for a good damned reason. Today, when most people look for a service like a personal training business or a boot camp, they look online.
Sure, some of the older generations still use the Yellow Pages and there is a certain percent of the population who will ask their friends and go through that route via referrals. However, the majority of people will look on the Internet and at this point in time usually it 's Google.
I get the question constantly, "how do I get my site to rank higher in Google. Is it the meta tags?"
My answer to that is NO. Google is mostly an off-page search engine. Meaning it is not so much what is on your page that is going to help you rank high in Google. The meta tags, specifically the meta description and the meta key words, won't really help your site rank higher.
Here's some things that work pretty well for keyword research for your fitness business:
http://labs.google.com/sets - get Kw ideas that are similar to the kw you type in
http://www.google.com/trends - see what's hot in google right now
http://www.wordtracker.com/ - many people love it, I can't stand it. (…)
Building links is one of the best strategies at this time for increasing your rankings in the search engines, especially if those are high-quality, relevant links and you're adding value to the web. (…)
One of the best personal trainer marketing and health club marketing strategies and one THE BEST ways to bring in loads of new clients is through the effective use of testimonials. (…)
If your local health, wellness or fitness website has a retail aspect to it you know how frustrating an abandoned shopping cart is. It is nothing but a pile of lost money. Here are a few great strategies to encourage your customers to get through your forms and make that purchase. (…)

I know you’ve already heard this one a million times, but one of the essential keys to building a high traffic website is valuable content. Unfortunately, usually the people who explain this to you don’t take the time to explain what “valuable” means. So for your benefit, here are the four things that make content truly valuable
