Today's training is being done by email even though I would typically send out a video today. We're on Day # 18!
Let's talk about lowering your Alexa ranking some more and how to get higher into the Organic Rankings on Google. These two things alone will bring visitors to your site for your keywords.
Blogging regularly and then getting people to your site every single day is the goal. Don't just drive people to your website with the current blog post, but drive them to your website with these activities as well:
1. When you post a video from You Tube be sure they go 'through' your website. So Google and Alexa 'sees' that the traffic is going from point of contact - email, social media..... TO your blog and then TO You Tube or Vimeo. Best bet yet is to embed the video into your Blog page or post and have it there.
2. When you are on Twitter or Facebook, drive traffic BACK to your website. Feature an old article, one of your sales pages, ask a question and create a page for people to comment on. All of this traffic works in your favor with lowering the Alexa ranking.
3. Some of you asked me to go in deeper with the "Team TLC" Campaign. Here's how that works:
Find 3-4 friends who will commit over the course of 8 weeks to Tweet, Like & Comment on your blog posts when they go live. When you're done publishing your blog post, ask them to come by and "T"weet it to their friends and "L"ike it on Facebook and then "C"omment in the comment sections. This will affect your Alexa ranking going down FAST as well!
We've had some members of our coaching program working together doing the above 3 steps and they've seen their Alexa rank go from 3 MILLION to 450,000 in less than 30 days by these simple activities.
Here's why you want your Alexa rank as low as possible:
1. Most advertisers and JV partners will only do business with people whose rank is below 500,000. This shows there is activity at the site, a regular list and a serious blogger.
2. The lower your rank, the better you'll be positioned in Google. The more T, L, C's you get the better! Now you see why I really emphasize this.
3. If you you ever do any Google PPC ads, this will also help with your relevancy score. Your keywords need to be relevant with your content.
My friends, it's not as complicated as you might have earlier thought to make money with your blog!
Many of my clients, who are Moms, who had no clue how they were going to make money online are now, in less than 90 days, making more than their husbands are. Is that crazy or what?!
Jeanette Webb is a homeschooling Mom who wrote me to tell me her husband made her deposits from her little info publishing company last week and she made more than he did in Corporate America! Hullo?!
Charlotte Siems is a homeschooling Mom of 12 children and she sells digital products as well in a small info publishing business. She just wrote me this morning to say she made $ 2450.00 in just 72 hours with a list of just 1000 people.
Kim Garst is one of our clients who is a Mom as well and she runs a branding company from home. She said that she's making cold hard cash with the work she's been doing on LinkedIn because of the training she's getting from us.
.....and we're seeing Best Selling Authors like PJ McClure rise in promotion on Amazon and Barnes and Nobles because of their blog activity!
I'm so grateful you've chosen to spend this time with me. We've got 12 more days together and they are going to be great!
You're doing a great job today! Have an amazing day!
With love,

Inspirations
"Ask how you'd live your life differently if you knew you were going to die soon, then ask yourself who those people you admire are and why you admire them, and then ask yourself what was the most fun time in your life. The answers to these questions, when seen, heard, and felt, provide us with an open doorway into our mission, our destiny, our purpose."
- Thom Hartmann, from his book 'The Prophet's Way". Hartmann is a best-selling author and founder of the Hunter School, a school for children with ADHD.
"The choice to follow love through to its completion is the choice to seek completion within ourselves. The point at which we shut down on others is the point at which we shut down on life. We heal as we heal others, and we heal others by extending our perceptions past their weaknesses. Until we have seen someone's darkness, we don't really know who that person is. Until we have forgiven someone's darkness, we don't really know what love is. Forgiving others is the only way to forgive ourselves, and forgiveness is our greatest need."
- Marianne Williamson, is a best-selling author and speaker.

How to change life
There are 7 things that you can do to change the way your mind and body react to setbacks.
1. Understand which obstacles are truly inevitable or insurmountable. Keep in mind that few are. Blindness is one. The death of a partner or loved one is another. The weather is a third. Know the difference between unexpected changes that you absolutely can't control and those things you can overcome.
2. Don't be emotionally defeated by inevitable change. Reframe the experience. Ask yourself, "Where is the silver lining?" Don't stop asking until you find one. There is always a silver lining. There are usually dozens of them.
3. Consult with other people who have experienced the same problem. Don't complain. Don't seek comfort. Seek practical knowledge. Ask their advice.
4. Read something inspirational to make you feel better.
5. Recognize that the biggest threat to you is not the problem itself but how you react to it.
6. Understand that if you give in to the problem, your body will begin to shut down. It will deny you the energy you need to move on and succeed. Energy is the key. Do everything you can to energize yourself. Rest, but not too long. Meditate, but only to feel better. Walk or run or exercise, but again only hard enough to stimulate energy.
7. Figure out how to have fun

Facing problems
Most people, when confronted with an obstacle, suffer some degree of shock and dismay. Even if they don't consciously acknowledge the problem, their bodies respond in ways that make them less capable of bouncing back.
You may find it interesting to know, for example, that scientists have found that testosterone - the hormone that drives us to work hard and win - actually drops measurably in people who run into unanticipated problems. This clues the body to move into a defensive mode. We feel the impulse to slow down or shut down or run away.
Sophisticated scans have shown similar responses in the brain. Our pleasure centers become less active, as do the parts of the brain that promote the will to act and take risks.
Our bodies are designed to be enthusiastic and energized when things are going well. But when things turn against us, they are programmed to retreat.
These are deeply ingrained instincts. Evolutionists tell us that we developed them in order to survive life-threatening situations such as famine, extreme cold, and attacks by predators.
And though these retrenching responses are necessary for survival when the threats are mortal, they can work against us when the challenges are less serious. That is why we so often feel momentarily defeated by soluble problems - the sort of problems we run into when we attempt to enhance our lives and build our careers.

Shynes & introvert
Most people think that being "shy" and being "introverted" are the
same thing. They use the two words as if they are identical.
In reality Sean Cooper will tell you there's a huge difference
between shyness and introversion, as he explains below.
Introverted People Have a Preference
Someone who is introverted likes to be alone more than the
"average" person. They may enjoy solitary activities like
playing video games or reading books. They may also dislike
group activities like going out to bars or socializing.
Introverts also usually have fewer and closer friends than
extroverts, who tend to have many more friends.
In short, being an introvert comes down to a personal preference.
You prefer to spend more of your free time by yourself. It comes
down to choosing to do what you personally enjoy.
Introversion is all about YOU.
Shy People Have a Fear
Shyness is totally different from introversion. Shyness isn't a
preference, but a fear.
When you are shy, you are constantly worried and afraid about what
other people think of you. You care a lot about how you are coming
across to others. Your fear of other people's opinions makes you
self-conscious, inhibited and quiet, especially around strangers.
Shyness is basically a nice word for fear. Unlike introverts, who
prefer to "keep to themselves," shy people may "keep to themselves"
simply because they are avoiding anxiety, discomfort and fear.
Shyness is not about you and your preferences, but about OTHER
PEOPLE. Worrying about how other people perceive you and whether
they will disapprove of you.
Which One Do You Have?
So what's the difference between shyness and introversion? Shyness
is a fear of other people's negative opinion and reactions, while
introversion is a preference to spend time alone and has nothing to
do with fear.
How can you figure out whether you're shy or introverted? Pay
attention to how you feel inside when you are around people.
Imagine you have to make a speech in front of a group of people and
think about how you would feel inside.
If you would feel anxious, tense, scared, or nervous, then you have
shyness. You have a fear of the situation. Other symptoms of
shyness include not knowing what to say, being too quiet, or having
physical reactions like sweating, shaking or blushing. Someone who
is shy may spend a lot of time by themselves, not because they
prefer to, but because they want to avoid the fear and other
uncomfortable feelings they get when they are put under the
pressure of other people's eyes.
On the other hand, if you can make presentations to groups
comfortably and talk to other people with ease, but you still spend
a lot of your time by yourself, then you are probably introverted.
If you don't feel fear or anxiety around people, but you still
choose to be by yourself, then it probably means you have a
preference for being solitary.
Shyness Is a Problem, Introversion Often Isn't
There may be nothing wrong with someone who enjoys spending time
alone. Everybody is different and has different personal tastes in
the types of activities they enjoy. Some people just don't enjoy
being a social butterfly and that's fine.
However, shyness, which is basically the fear of other people's
negative judgment, is a problem that should be tackled head-on.
It's a problem because it isn't voluntary: people can't choose
whether or not to be anxious and nervous around others.
The bottom line is: shyness makes your life worse, not better. Shy
people would usually love to have more friends and get a better
social life, but their fear stops them from doing what they want.
Removing this fear is a worthwhile goal that will improve your
quality of life.

overcome it, then check out this great program by Sean Cooper who
