Hi All! I am George Pierce. At the time of the post, I am in the process of building another website.  There are certain ingredients that your website needs,  most of which will not make you money.  Let's call those ingredients, the Nuts and Bolts.  Also there are a number of trick$ and $ecret$ that will help your site make money!  

My site is a WP website, built with pagelayer.  I share that because the pagelayer option provides us with an easy and fast way to get the NUTS and BOLTS (essential pages) already set up for us, which, of course need to be customized.  The essential pages are your home page, contact page, product and/or services page, and about page.  The good news (sort of) is that most aspiring Internet marketers and nearly all online businesses stop there with a minimum number of pages.

In addition, most websites have few, if any, of the tricks and secrets for making money. 

What are those Trick$ and $ecret$?  

I am a content marketer.  So content is one of the secrets that I use and recommend for making money onlne.  Content for content sake is NOT how this works.  Do your best to provide quality, quality content will pay, poor quality content will drive visitors away.  But let's take this one $tep further.  That $tep is to create web page content based on a keyword or keyword phrase.  There are free $EO tools that will help you find keywords and phrases that have good search or great serch and less competition.  My favorites are Ubersuggest and TubeBuddy, both have a free version, as well as being available as a Chrome extension.

Above, is a snapshot of Ubersuggest in action.  For 'newbies', I recommend an SD in the 30s or lower.  BUT..with 110K monthly searches, an SD of 60 is comparatively low.  So here are two more $ecrets or Trick$.  Add even more (content) and create a $tring of pages or $ections.  

Adding more content means to dig a little deeper.  In the example above, find and add more images and personal and business information than other sites. Why?  Because, your visitors are going to STAY, and they are going to return, and they are sincerely the best visitors you could ask for, and the search engines are going to send them to your site for FREE.  Include your keywords in your meta section, WP has several SEO plugins that will help you. (click on Plugins, the add new, type SEO in the search box, find the Plugin you want, download and install).  

$tring your pages together!?? (pagelayer can help).  

Allow me to clarify:  $tring some of your pages together, perhaps a half dozen or so, all with related content.  Using the above example, all the pages would be about Paul Anka, his life, his career, his songs, and so on.  Another $tring might be pages about Elvis, this works regardless of your niche,  The $tring almost forces content upon your visitors, and when it is relative quality content,  this strategy works for you in so many ways.  There is no thinking and no clicking needed by your visitors, but your content MUST be relative, quality content.  You want your site to be like fly paper, when visitors land, they do not leave.  

Above is an example of a $tring of pages.

Think about this strategy for a moment, please.  Your visitors have typed into their search boxes, the keyword phrase that your webpage or web section is built on, and, of course, you have done a superb job of providing the content that they are looking for.  And you have added several more interesting pages, that they cannot resist.

There are lots more Trick$ and $ecret$ coming, but getting free quality visitors seems like the best place to start.  And my next post will include how to use $ocial media to drive even more free traffic.  And when we get into 'monetization', remember that people LOVE to shop! and "People LOVE to buy!"   

So...(IMO)...think of a quality content site as a way to provide a satisfying meal, after which, the Trick$ and $ecret$ you will be learning, will help you make it easy for your visitors to shop and buy!

Thank you for reading.

Much success,

Hi ALL!  I am George Pierce.  This post is about how to add audio with YouTube, and it is easy.  Above is a snapshot of a short video that I found at Canva.  It was already made, it just needed customizaion.  The title (text) was changed with ease at Canve, but it had no audio (no music).  Addiing music is a good idea for almost any video, and this video is for a MUSIC site, so here is how to do it using the YT video editor.

Go to YouTube, upload your vdeo, then go to your YouTube studio, and select your video (in content ~ then hit edit icon). On the left column, click on Editor. You will get the Video Editor pop-up.  Click on audio.

Type in the kind of music that you are looking for, press the play button to listen, when you find the one that you want, press the + button.  YouTube will add the music to your video.

Thank you for reading.

Much success,

Hi ALL!  I am George Pierce, this post is about how to find affiliates.  Finding affiliates is relatively easy, however, your first tip is to find 'PERFECT' affiliates.  To choose affiliates that really are a good fit, focus on thier placement with your brand and target audience, their experience, and the commissions offered. Likewise, consider their marketing methods and the content they produce.

My story:  

I share what I do, because it works.  One of my new YT cannels is gaining traction, so it is time for a website, which includes finding affiliates.  The idea is to send viewers from YT to the website, and to send website visitors to YT.  And along their way, get them to make a purchase or more, and to join an email list. Part of the site building and list building process is to monetize, which includes strategically placed affiliate ads, banners, videos, text and so forth on your site and in your emails.  This post is a breakdown of the steps you should take to find affiliates.  I will say it again, you want affiliates that are a perfecit fit, so here is how to do it.  The following will work for any niche.

1. You want an affiliate that Aligns With Your Brand and Target Audience:
Brand Placement: Make sure the affiliate's brand and values resonate with your own.
Audience Match: Focus on affiliates whose target market demographics and interests fit well with your target market.

2. Review Experience and Know-how:
Look for affiliates with a tested track record.
High quality is a MUST!
Examine the quality and relevance of their product or service, also, of their web content, guaranteeing it is interesting, engaging, and trustworthy.
Promotional Methods:  Do their marketing approaches (e.g., social media, blogging, email) line up with yours.

3. Commission Fees and Incentives:
Make sure the commission rates and incentives provided are competitive and appealing.
Repeating Compensations (residual):
Consider repeating payments.  Your research and your niche and audience knowledge, will help you with making this choice, if available. 

4. How can your affiliate help YOU? 

Look at their Tools and Platforms,  Software, Tracking and Analytics, and Communication.

5. When it comes to physically Locating Affiliates, you may be surprised at what you will find when you use your search box.  However, 
Affiliate Networks may be best choice.  They allow you to access a vast pool of possibilites.  An added benefit is that your prospective affiliate is more likely to be honest, dependable, reliable, etc., when they are in an Affiliate Network.

Take a little extra time and a little extra care when finding affiliates, it will be worth it.

Thank you for reading.

Much success,

PS.  The new site is a WordPress site, which WordPress AI built for me.  It still needs to be customized, and more pages added, but the result is 6 pages, very professional pages, the nucleus that every site needs, all set up and ready to customize.  My site (above) was created with AIOP ( All in one Profit) because everything you need, including autoresponder (virtually UNLIMITED email software) is included. I have been with AIOP for years, they are great...BUT...although they have the lowest price, they are not free.  Infinity Free is a free option (website only).  Both AIOP and Infinity Free provide access to WordPress by way of Softaculous, which you can access through your cPannel or WP manager.  

PPS.  Music is a 'love' or a 'passion' for me, creating an online biz based on one of your 'loves' or 'passions' makes your journey even more fun.  

Hi Everyone and welcome!  I am George Pierce, this post is about your favicon.  What we are about to cover is: what is a favicon, why it is more important than you think, a common favicon mistake to avoid, how to create a great favicon for free, and how to install it on your website.  Let's begin.

What is a favicon?

Favicon is short for favorite icon, also called a short icon, website icon, URL icon, tab icon, or bookmark icon.  It is the small image that appears next to your website's URL in a browser's address bar, on tabs, and in bookmarks lists. Above are examples of better-known favicons.

Why is a favicon important?

Your favicon will help users to more quickly and more easly identify your website among a sea of open tabs.  Your favicon also makes it easy for users to spot your website easily in their browser history. The more that your visitors see your favicon, the more likely they are going to be able to recognize your site, the next time they see it.  In other words, it is visual tool which goes straight to the brain, and thus allows it to work so well.  Take another look at the favicons above.  You instantly know what sites are represented, which is not only proof that they work, but also proof of their power.

A Common Favicon Mistake!

Most online newbies seem to think that their favicon and their logo are the same.  WRONG!   As mentioned a favicon is a 'small" icon, it is typically shown as 16 by 16 or 32 by 32 pixels.  It is large enough to recognize but much too small for a logo.  On the other hand, your logo is an essential part of your branding and so is your favicon.  

How To Create A Great Favicon For Free!

There are two ways to create your favicon.  One is the old fashoined way which is to use an image editor, and for that I suggest PIXLR, which is a free online image editor, easy to use, and perfect for the job. 

The above favicon was NOT made with an image editor, it was made the second way, which is to use AI.  CoPilot created the favicon above.  PIXLR has an AI image creator, that I do not recommend. Three that I use regularly are CoPilot, ChatGPT, and GenMo.  GenMo is an online image generator site.  I do not believe that most people know that CoPilot and ChaGPT will create images.  All 3 will give you what you want and it is as easy as typing what you want into the description box, and, as mentioned, it is free.

TIP:  Take your time, think about what you want for your faviicon, after you do that, then think about the details such as colors, edging, shadows, etc.  The more details, the better your faviicon will be. 

How To Install Your Favicon:

Installing your favicon is easy. We need to go to settings.  

The following favicon install is with Groove.  (Groove Funnels)

Go to your dashboard, click on settings, the bottom icon on the left.  You favicon will show up, it will be the Groove favicon. To change it, click on Site Settings, then click on choose, upload your favicon, and select it, then PUBLISH, (publish for the entire site) and then click the red check mark (top right next to X).  What I like about Grove is that you do not have to have a site wide favicon.  In other words, you may want to change your favicon for a particualr page such as a product page, review page, sales page, etc.  You can.  Follow the same steps, except choose Page Settings instead of site Settings, and when you Publish, choose page rather than site.

Some free web hosts, such as Webador, only allow you to upload your favicon in their paid version, but on most you will be able to change it.

Some free web hosts are a bit tricky, such as Systeme.  

Click on your Profile (image at top right), then settings.  Next click on custom domains, then on the three dots, and then you will see the pop up above, to access and change your favicon.  

You favicon is an important branding tool, and one that you can create and install quicly, easily, and for free.

Hi ALL!  I am George Pierce, this quick post is about how to get free AI images.  The above image (thumbnail) was made with AI almost instantly and for free.  Images help you to tell your story and a well chosen or well made image can help you get more views or more visits or more click-throughs or more sales.  Creating a perfect image, however, can be difficult to impssible for many of us. 

The right image vs. the wrong image vs. little to no images:

Most newbies seem to opt for the 'wrong' images or little to no images!  Images are such a powerful lever, but because we lack the skill or the creativity for generating great images, we unintentionally miss out on this benefit. 

NOT Any More!

You can now use free AI to create outstanding images!  Simply type in what you want, be as specific as possible, and your perfect image will appear.  The above image was made with CoPilot, it took two tries, which was my fault...that is why I say be as specific as possible.  CoPilot and ChatGPT will create amazing images for free, I believe the free options have a limit of 2 images per day.  There are also dozens of free online sites such as Aitubo and Open Art that you can use to create awesome images.  

Thank you for reading.

Hi Everyone!  I am George Pierce, in a previous post, I mentioned combining AI generated songs with AI avatar video using the free versions.  You can use this strategy to help your online adventure and as a money making skill.  This post is an update. 

So far, my best results are using SUNO for the song, and HeyGen for the avatar video, both are free.  To generate your song, all you need to do is type in what you want.  The free version is amazing, BUT, once the song is created, the free version only allows you to change or edit detials such as the title, but you cannot edit the song. The better your description, the better your song.

Download your song.

The above video was made using SUNO and HeyGen.

After your song is downloaded, go to HeyGen and upload the song, choose your avatar and create your video.  There will probably be some glitches, but they are fixable.  Two typical giltches are going to be that your avatar is not singing when it should be, or that it is singing when it should not be.

One way to handle a glitch is with a 'filler'.  

First, detach your audio.  You will need to do this for both fixes.  

Open your video editor, import your HeyGen video, then add free video from sites such as Pixabay, that is relative to your song, and you can insert the 'filler' video where there are glitches.  Keeping your video lined up with your audio, delete video glitches (but not your audio)  and replace with filler video. 

You can also "copy and paste'.  

Cut a piece of your video that is what you want, and paste it over the glitch.  For some reason the above video did not say every "OH", to fix, copy a snippet that is saying "Oh" and paste over the glitch.  

As your skills improve, you can also use this strategy on sites such as Fiverr, short music clips are about $200.  

Thank you for reading.

Much success,

PS.  Allow me to invite you to visit my YT training channel for free make money online training. 

Hi ALL!  I am George Pierce, this post is about making money online, which is a lot like owning a money tree!  Money trees are hard to come by, that is why a make money online money tree is so special.  It is accessible to everyone!  There is a catch, however.  Money trees need attention in order to grow.  Most online money making opportunities seem to infer that you can 'set it and forget it", and that is not true.  For example, AI tools can be very helpful, and I will be sharing a couple of free tools that can change your online financial future, but YOU are still that secret ingedient that is going to make or break your online endeavor.  If you are searching for that 'little extra' or that 'special ingredient' for growing your money tree, it is YOU!  

The other advantage of an online money tree is that it is free.  In fact, I strongly suggest that you opt for free (or low cost) options when you are starting out.  Even with the best care, your money tree will take a while to grow.  In the meantime, if you are NOT spendng money (focusing on free), your new business may not yet be making money but it is not losing money.  When you are spending money, even a little, your new business is losing money.  Why this is so important is that the only way kill your money tree is to quit...if your business is not losing money, you are much less likely to quit.  

Next, allow me to arm you with an easy strategy to help you to ensuure that your money tree will grow. The strategy is research.  What is amazing is that research is the best fertilizer for an online money tree.  The research process is so simple, and it works (almost) every time.  

How it works:  

Find out what people want!  (relative to your niche).  Then give it to them!   I like to add a step three, which is to 'make your content special'.  Research is the basis for the entire process.  Three tools that you can use for your research are TubeBuddy, Ubersuggest, and your Search Box. 

 TubeBuddy and/or Ubersuggest are free tools that help you find the 'perfect' keywords.  Perfect keywords have good serach or great search and less competition.  Above is a snapshot of some of the keyword research performed, this is for "70s music" using Ubersuggest.  Ubersuggest has an online web site and a chrome extension, both are free.   The lower the SD, the better.  I recommend 30 or lower for newbies.  30 means that you have about a 70% chance of success.  "70s music hits' (above), for example, has an SD of 9, which means a 91% chance of success. 'Jolene the song' (not shown) has a search volume of 66.5K and an SD of 22 which is great.

The icing on the cake!

As far as I know, no one is teaching this!  Step three is using your search box to help separate your content from the rest.  Type a keyword or phrase into your search box that accurately describes what you are loooking for and I recommend that you add the word "Wikipedia".  

Below is a snapshot from Wikipedia (Jolene the song) of a small but important bit of info that is the kind of info that can help.

That bit of info is that "Jolene" has been selected as the number one Country song of all time by Rolling Stone.  Although these three steps do not guarantee success every time, they should work for you almost every time...and I believe that you will soon agree that this is an easy way to grow your online money tree.

Thank you for reading.

Much success,

Hi ALL!  I am George Pierce, I do have 3 pieces of great news, that will help you with your online adventure.   

First, is an experiment that is working, and SHHH, I do not believe anyone else is doing this.  I have combined Suno, which is a free site for creating songs, with Vidnoz, a free site for creating AI Avatar videos.  The following video is at step one of the process...HUH?  I will be adding background images and video and text, as well as sandwiching the video between an Intro and an Outro. I will also fix a few glitches, such as talking when he should not.   The following video is unlisted, it is for training purposes.  I am sharing this so you can see the possibilities!

To make the above happen, go to Suno, tell Suno what you want for your song, and get ready to be amazed!  Next go to Vidnoz, choose your avatar, upload the song, and generate your video.  That is what you are seeing above.  In order to add an intro, an outro and to edit, you can use a free online video editor such as ClipChamp or CapCut, or a free downloadable video editor such as OpenShot or VSDC.  There is one small catch, the free version of Vidnoz gives you 3 free minutes per day, so keep your video under 3 minutes or it will take more than one day to create.

Second is using Suno for creating your jingle! The video below is an example of how you can create and use this option, and again, it is free.

I am pleased with the following video, although I may add an avatar. 

How the above video was created:

The intro and outro avatar was made with Vidnoz (free), all the video clips within the video are free from pexels.  The song was created with Suno.  The tune is captivating, and the video is meant to be fun, and to make the viewer HAPPY. 

Third is great news about Invideo.  Invideo has a free AI video generator that you will love, but the news that I want to share is about their affiliate program.  

 Invideo recently launched their Generative AI tool, invideo AI v3.0. This tool uses AI technology to create unique, customizable videos with a simple text prompt. With an AOV (Average Order Value)  over $100 USD, promoting invideo AI v3.0 is a way to maximize your commissions in 2025. 

Discount Codes

What can also help make sales is that invideo has exclusive discount codes available for affiliates to share.  The codes won’t expire. 

IVStudio25 for 25% off annual invideo studio plans. 

IVStudio30 for 30% off monthly invideo studio plans. 

invideoAIOffer50 for 50 free AI minutes for use in the first month of a new invideo AI subscription

The Gold Rush!?  

During each Gold Rush, it is estimated that way less than 1% of gold seekers found gold.  It is also estimated that nearly 100% of the people that supplied the prospectors with TOOLS, made money, most made a good living.  Consider suppllying aspiring Internet marketers or YouTubers with great tools such as AI v3.0.  If you are not familiar with Invideo, check them out, I have been an avid user and affiliate for years, because of an outstanding product and superb service. 

Thank you for reading.

Hello ALL!  I am George Pierce, this post is a quick overview of a few new features from AWeber.  AWeber is an online autoresponder.  I have always felt that they have been and still are one of the best, and I'll share a few reasons why I feel that way in a moment.  I have been a proponent of AIOP as well (also an online autorespnder).  AIOP is a virtual unlimited aotoresponder, so, if you are going to be creating lots of lists, and sending lots of emails, AIOP is probably your best choice, because of the low cost. 

That being said, AWeber has added some features that are worth checking out. The two that I want to share are Newsletters with AI assist, and Integrations.

What you are seeing above is a glimpse of "Integrations".  Presently, AWeber has over 300 Integrations!  Their Integrations are so easy!  and fast!  Setting up integrations is a 'headache', and that is putting it nicely, and, it always takes twice as long as expected.  AWeber has made integrations a breeze! 

Above, on the left, shows you that you are a click away from whereever you want to be.  Your dashboard is well thought out, and easy to navigate. You can also click on Quick Menu, if you do not see what you are looking for, you have a search option.

If you click Newsletters on the left, this (below) is an example of what you will see. 

Above are three superb suggested topics for weight loss.  When you click on Newsletters, your topics (subject lines) will be based on your niche for your list.  Click on any one of the topics and AWeber AI will write your Newsletter, and even includes links! 

Type any changes that you want in the box at the bottom left and hit send.

I added personalization to the subject line and the welcome.

Of course, AI is also available to help you with creating other emails. 

In addition to some of the best and most up to date features, AWeber also has supeb training, help, and support. Your list is the backbone of your online business.  AWeber can help you to get started, even if you have zero experience. You can also start for free and it stays free up to 500 subscribers.

 Thank you for reading.

Much success,

Hi All!  I am George Pierce, this post is about MONEY!  Although I am far from an expert regarding money matters, the content of this post is based on what the 'experts' are saying.  There are two paths when it comes to investing.  The first is the path that I chose and the one that I recommend, which is to outsource.  The second is to handle your investments yourself, a choice that I believe that many of us try.  Although the second path may seem appealing, it is a mistake.  

My story:

My first "Palm Beach" office was a single room (but it meant a Palm Beach address).  The rented office space was in a 'commodites' firm, the rest of the offices, the rest of the building was "commodities" research and investing.  Over time, I got to know and to make friends with many of the GENIUSES employed by the commodities firm.  Here is little of what I learned.

Most investments such as commodities and the stock market are based on 'supply and demand'.  If there is more demand than supply, it is probably a good inestment.  Too bad it is not that simple.  

There are over a dozen additional factors that need to be considered.  These include interest rates, the economy, public opinion, money supply, trends, employment rates, unemployment rates, the 5 rule, and timing.  What I discovered is that these GENIUSES had devised ways to track these factors with precision, which made prediction easier and more reliable.  In other words, many of the commodities brokers lived and breathed charts and stats and tracking and details, which was not and is still not my cup of tea.  In addition, I am serious about the 'genius' part, and genius is not a talent that I possess.  

Since I was able to get an inside look at investing, I discovered that 'financial expertise' was real, and an important ingredient, therefore, I recommend finding financial experts that you are happy with and then taking advantage of their expertise.

The following is from Cohen and Steers, a part of my portfolio with Fidelity Investments.   I joined Fidelity over 40 years ago, they are my favorite.  

For more info from Cohen and Steers:  https://www.cohenandsteers.com/insights/insights-3-reasons-to-own-real-assets-vo11is5/

Past performance is never a guarantee of future performance.  That being said, the above graph is worthy of our attention. 

Commodities: As mentioned, supply and demand is a factor and shortages have helped commodites

Resource Equities:  You will find that resource equities have a history of not only protection against inflation, but also increasing purchasing power during inflationary periods. 

Infrastructure:  Infrastructure investors provide the capital needed to repair, rebuild, and build new infrastructure.

Real Estate:  Real Estate values seem to be always trending upward.

Real Assets Blend: Real Assets historically have out performed inflation.

Where to begin?

Getting started can be daunting, even overwhelming,  No matter, the key is to take your first step and get started.

Newbie Tips:

Risk/ Reward:  Every investment has risk, cash is the safest but also you lowest-returning option.  The investments that are typically the riskiest, typically yield the potential for the highest returns.

Begin Here:  Most experts recommend that index funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are often your best path when you are a newer investor.

The stock market has consistently delivered higher returns than bonds over long periods, but the stock market has a greater short-term risk, along with  wider price swings.

Investment experts recommend diversification, which is spreading your money across different types of investments.  

My Two Cents:

1. Renewable Energy.  The 'trend' is to lower CO2 emissions, it should be a long term trend, so investments in that area should do well.

 2. 401K.  Investing in a 401K lowers your taxable income by the amount you invest.  For example:  You make $50K and invest 6% ($3,000), your taxable income is reduced by $3K.  If your tax bracket is 25%, your taxes will be reduced by $750, so it is like a 25% or $750 immediate ROI.

Make money, manage your money, and take care of your health.

Hi All!  I am George Pierce, this post is about a most sccessful online method or strategy, the problem ~ solution approach.  If you are considering or trying to make money online from home by way of the Internet, this post will help. 

It takes an entreprenurial spirit to even get started, and then once you do get started, there are dozens of "problems" that you will face. 

Although each of your new make money online problems has its own solution, the problem ~ solution approach may be your life saver.  While you are learning, this approach can help you to provide "the value" needed, to help you through your start up phase. 

One of the problems when you are getting started online, is that nothing seems to work. And when nothing seems to be working, that is when many newbies quit.  So, "The Problem~Solution Approach" may be the lifeline that you need.

How it works:

The premise is that every online niche has numerous problems and that every problem has a solution.  In other words, whatever your online adventure, whatever the niche, your key to success is to provide 'value' to your audience.  A valuable service is to identify the problems that they face, and provide solutions that they can use to fix the problem.  When you create this kind of content, it is instantly relatable, and its application will often show almost immediate results! 

Above is a snapshot of this process in action.  

What you are seeing above is the use of free AI (CoPilot) which can help you to readily identify and to help solve the problems that your auudeince faces.  

The bottom line is that usig this strategy will enable you to create value and gain trust, a spring board for future growth and success.

Hi All!  I am George Pierce, this post is about free tools that help you share your content.  If you want to succeed online, consitent content creation is a must, but, just as important is sharing your content with social media sites.  There are free tools that can help you do this.  Based on my experience, every free tool that I have used are superb.  You will love them, they are great.  I have used Buffer, Hoote Suite, and Tailwind, so I can recommend all three with confidence.  The negative, about all three, is that the free version is limited, but not so limited.  In other words, any of these will boost your traffic from social media for free.  

All my External Views (External Traffic) are free, and a result of 'sharing' my content.  Make sharing your content a habit.  Free tools make it easier, and faster. Pin Scheduler (the snapshot below) is by Tailwind, it gives you 20 free monthly posts, it also gives you a "Ghostwriter' feature (10 Pins).  The free version includes the use of "Ghostwriter" (AI) to hep generate your Pins.  

You also have the abiltiy to schedule your Pins, thus make multiple pins and then spread out (schedule) your posts.

If you are not sharing, you are sincerely missing out on lots of free quality fraffic, and if you are sharing, these free tools will help you to get more done in less time.  Give them a try.  

Thank you for reading.

Much Success,

Hi Gals and Guys!  I am George Pierce, this post is about being willing to 'step up to the plate' and "stop trying to make home runs".  In baseball, you cannot get any hits if you do not get an 'at bat'.  In the making money online arena, you have an opportnity to take an 'at bat' as often as you like.  Not only does the Internet provide you with the potential of infinite at bats, it also allows you to be a  'place hitter'!??   A place hitter is one that has the skill to be able to place the ball or hit the ball to a place where no one is going to catch it.  Rather than hitting for the fences (for home runs), hit to get on base (hit to get base hits).  Yes, Home Runs, are more exciting, and your home runs will happen, but base hits are more realistic for beginners. 

It all starts with stepping up to the plate and that part is easy and free.  There is no need to spend money. You can get superb free hosting from sites such as Webador, which has a superb site builder, or Altervista which has free WordPress sites that compare with paid.  There is also no cost to set up a YouTube channel or to join soical media sites which will allow you to share your content for free.  

 Even your research tools are free.  Below is a snapshot of Ubersuggest.  I use the paid version, however, Ubersuggest has a free web site and a free Chrome extension.  
Tools, such as Ubersuggest, allow us to 'research' our content, in other words to base our content around what our audience is searching for.  This is where 'place hitting' comes in.  The above keywords have good search and LOW Competition.   The SD column indicates organinc search difficulty, the lower the SD, the better.  The (inverted) chances for success for these keywords (phrases) are 86%, 91%, and 93%!  We have an almost guaranteed chance of getting on base!

Let's  take a look at the common newbie mistake of trying for home runs.

The keyword phrase, the rolling stones, has an SD of 92.  US search volume is 74K, overall is 243K.  The search volume is superb, and that is what most newbies look at and only look at, so they build their content around those keywords.  Thanks to Ubersuggest, you and I know that we have about an 8% chance of success with the keywords "The Rolling Stones".   Unfortunately, our organic results (free traffic) are going to be almost none.  The mistake of swinging for the fences is easy to fix...or is it?!!   

When you are new, you are going to make mistakes, it comes with the territory.  The problem that I had is that "I did not know."  I knew something was wrong, but I did not know what was wrong. That is not so easy to fix.  

I cannot make any guarantees, but almost all of what I share, is what I do or have done.  If my strategy works for me, it should work for you.  I say 'strategy' because this kind of research will work for any niche.

YT has changed their algorithm, but it so happens that "Satisfaction" is one of the most popular songs,  it ranks 31 in the top 500 best songs of all time, per Rolling Stone Magazine.  I know that because of "research".  Research your keywords, resarch your content, then deliver as much value as you can!

Much success,

Hi Everyone!  I am George Pierce, this is a quick post about an affiliate that is not worth checking out.  The affiliate is FuturHealth (the e is missing on purpose).  It is in the weight loss niche. What is different about FuturHealth is they are the first all-encompassing online weight loss medication program that allows users to be prescribed semaglutides such as Ozempic.  Their approach is for the visitor to take a quiz to see if they qulify.  The quiz gathers info and also does an excellent job of "selling".  All this sounds great, so I decided to ceck them out.  

Reddit, Consumer Affairs, and the BBB are littered with complaints.  In most cases, the customers complain that their charges are higher than they were told.  Some complaints are to be expected, even the best companies cannot please everyone all the time, but FuturHealth's complaints seem excessive and they have a 1 star rating out of 5 (Consumer Affairs).  

This post is based on my research only, not my actual experience.  As an affiliate, you want to avoid some companies because of poor service, over pricing, scam-like tactics, and so on, so take a few minutes to do a little research, BEFORE you join.

Thank for reading.

Much success,

Hi All!  I am George Pierce, this post is based on my opinion of Aitubi (aka Runway) and Genmo.  Aitubi and Genmo are superb sites that can literally turn text or image into a video (and more).  They are being touted as free AI Video creation options, and that is not a lie, but it is misleading, and I believe that it is on pupose.  The free versions are incredible, but the video length is only a few seconds.  However, do not dismiss these two free sites just yet.

Here Is WHY!

Above is an example of something that I run into on occasion.  The video clip or image that I am using is NOT a good fit.  I use sites such as Pixabay, Pexels. and MixKit for free images and video clips, and most of the time, I am, at least, satsified or elated with what is available.  And every so often, I am disappointed.  About is a snapshot of a video clip of the Devil in a fiery cave....SHHH!  He is planning to end Christmas forever, and he will succeed!  

All I need is a short video clip of the Devil in a fiery cave, but, the one above sucks.

This is where the free version of Aitubi and Genmo are PERFECT!  

Above is a snapshot of Genmo.  All you or I need to do is to type into the decription box what we need, and Genmo (or Aitubi) will create an image or video.  Genmo has been able to create what I cannot find, along with Aitubi, in seconds, and each time, they have over-delivered!  

How can this help YOU?

On your websites, blogs, posts, articles, emails, and social media; images and/or videos are going to enhance your content.  They will help you to better tell your story, they will also be helpful in grabbing attention and keeping attention.  

Are You NEW? 

If you are new and need a little help with creating a description, Chat GPT and CoPilot (both have free versions) can help you with preparing a description. They will help you with crafting the pefect description, so your image or video clip will be a perfet fit.

They can also help with all other aspects such as suggestions for scenes, scripts, sound effects and more.  I am not suggesting that you let AI do all the work, but I believe that AI can help you to shorten the learning curve.  This means that you will see better results, and see them faster. 

ChatGPT and CoPilot can also help you with creating perfect images, but are not able to help you with GIFs or Video Clips.  

Thank you for reading.

Much success,

Hi All!  I am George Pierce, I am making a quick post while waiting for a video rendering at Genmo. Genmo is a free tool for creating short AI videos, it is free and all you need to do is to type in what you want.  The problem is that most of us are guilty, certainly, I am, of the mistake of creating our online content around ...  what WE want.  

Unfortunately, creating content based on 'what we want'  is not only wrong, it does not work.  The secret is to create content based on what our audience wants.  Many years ago, I learned the secret...find out what they want, then give it to them.  It is simple, straightforward, and virtually guarantees success!  Almost, there is a bit more, that we will get to in a moment.

This brings us to:

How Do We Find Out What Our Audience Wants?

The above image is one of several images and videos that were used today to create an article, a blog post, a video, a free downloadable training PDF (with an ad), and a video short about weight loss.  

Finding content that will get visitors and viewers, in the weight loss niche, is not easy...SO...

Before I start my weight loss content, I do this! 

I go to Ubersuggest. 

Ubersuggest?

It is a free tool that you can access online, also, a free extension that you can use on your browser.  Ubersuggest helps us to find keywords and keyword phrases that have good search volume!  Good search volume means that we can focus on and create content around what our audience wants.  

As perfect as this sounds, so far, there is still a piece missing.  HUH?  

We need to dig a little deeper, and Ubersuggest does that for us. 

We need to find out what our audience wants, we need to find those keywords and phrases, and we also need to find ones that have less competition.  For beginners, an SD of 30 or less is recommended.  SD means organic (free) search difficulty.  An SD of 30 means that you have about a 70% chance of success!  The above is a snapshot of the paid option, so I do not believe that "Generate Content With AI" will not be available, but what is important is that in seconds, you or I can see which keywords are going to be successful for generating a steady stream of free traffic!  

As you see above, I started with 'lose fat plan' as my keyword phrase.  Thanks to Ubersuggest, you and I can see immediately that 'lose fat plan' is a terrible choice for creating our content around.  We can also see that the phrase 'lose weight walking plan' is an excellent choice, one with about an 82% chance of success!   

Thanks to Ubersuggest, you and I can eliminate the guesswork BEFORE we create our content.

Include your keyword phrase in your content (no more than 1% saturation) and in your meta section.

When we can get into the teens (an SD of 18), a steady stream of free traffic is almost guaranteed!  

BUT:

What if we do like most new aspiring IMs do?  

What most new IMs do is to create content around what they want, we already know that is not going to work.  And what some IMs do, who have their heart in the right place...is to create content about what they THINK their audience wants.  Also, not going to work.

So, BEFORE you create your content, go to the Ubersuggest website, or download the free extension, and find those keywords that will work both for your audience (good search) and for you (low competition).  

Thank you for reading.  

Much Success,

George Pierce

PS. Genmo is free but videos are short, however, the AI can create almost exactly what we want, correction, what our audience wants.  The free option will have a small watermark on the bottom right.  When it comes to creating a video "hook". Genmo may be of help.

Hi All!  I am George Pierce.  This post is about being willing to try.  Above is a snapshot of the performance of a YT short with an amazing CTR.  The reason for this post is that I just started adding shorts a week ago, and the above YT short was posted 4 days ago.  The channel would not have received an extra 860 views, however, if I had not begun adding shorts.  Not everything will work, but we do not know if it will work if we do not try.  

The numbers above are a result of research and LUCK, but luck stands for labor under correct knowledge.  YTs latest algorithm strategy is based on PULL rather than PUSH.  They base what they present to a viewer based on the PULL of the viewer, in other words, based on what the viewer wants.  They used to PUSH out videos based on performance, the better a video performs, the more likely it will be shared.  Tailoring what they present as viewable options based on our likes, however, based on PULL, rather than PUSH, makes perfect sense.  This simply means that research is more valuable than ever. 

After the research, back it up with action.

Thank you for reading.

Much success,

PPS.  The short, of course, includes a link to the full video. 

Hi All!  I am George Pierce, this is a quick post about using AI to save time.  The AI that I am talking about is CoPilot, ChatGPT, and Google Gemini.  I use ChatGPT and CoPilot which helped with the logo above, I'll explain how in a moment.  I do not use Google Gemini, but I understand that it is comparable and I believe that these three are supposedly the top three. 

Get help with almost anything!  Save Time!

In the case of the above logo, ChatGPT helped with the name.  If you need help with ideas or brainstorming, these AI bots can help.  The trick was that I let ChatGPT know that I needed a name that was not already taken, yet would help with SEO.  In less than a split second, I had 10 names, which could have taken me hours to research.  I did research Happy Kiddo, and it is unique and helps with SEO.  

The logo image (top) is a creation of CoPilot.  You type in what you want, and the AI delivers.  Text responses are almost instant, images may take a few seconds.  You can use the images with no copyright issues.

Double Check!

You may have noticed that Happy Kiddo was Happyy Kiddo in the first (top) image.  CoPilot was having a bad day, and, for some reason, could not spell it right, going from too many Ys to Hapy Kido, anyway, after several tries, I switched to chatGPT.  The above (second logo) is the first try.

You have control!

When something is wrong, such as misspellings or inaccuracies, you can ask your AI robot to fix it. In the second logo, the second D in KIDDO has the wrong outline, it is O shaped, not D shaped.

I asked ChatGPT to fix it and the above logo was the result.

The AI is NOT perfect! (It is still incredible!)

To fix the D, I asked for the same logo, with the outline changed to a D.  I did not get exactly what I asked for.  This is partly because the AI is not perfect, however, if you are as specific as you can be (the more detail the better), you are probably going to be overwhelmed by the results.

I asked for a happy kid, a kid's room for a background, bright eye-catching colors, and the name for the logo 'Happy Kiddo' below the happy kid...and that is what was delivered.  

If you are not using one of these three free AI bots to assist you, or something comparable, consider giving AI a try, you will be glad you did.

Hi ALL!  I am George Pierce, and I am fortunate to have many online successes, but this post is different, it is about online failures.  I believe that I am the KING of online mistakes, and probably in the top ten for online failures.  Why a post about failure?  How is failure going to help your online success?

I believe our failures help us much more than our successes!  What is so great about the Internet is that we can keep our online ventures at or near zero cost.  What this means is that when things do not work as planned online, and for many of my early months, very little worked for me, our financial loss is zero.  I have about 20 years of online experience, and the first year or so was a disaster.  My results were almost zero...I should have quit, but I was convinced that internet marketing did work, and would work for me.  It took me what seemed forever to figure things out, and, fortunately, I am still making mistakes!  I am still figuring things out! 

About Me:

I love to learn, and I love a challenge.  I enjoy trying new things, and, online, new things seem to be endless.  I also view failures and mistakes as learning experiences, the best learning experiences.

The following is one of my mistakes.  It is BAD, so bad, the video is private.  

The video above is my first attempt at combining AI music with AI video.  The music is by Suno, it is free and amazing.  The video is by HeyGen, also free and also amazing.  The problems with the video are obvious, the fix...not so obvious.  AHA, I smell a challenge!  Better control of the AI-generated avatar is needed, but not an option.  Uh OH!  The fix (I believe) is to insert 'prompts' in the 'script', which will allow me to 'direct' the avatar the way I want. But I do not know how!  Another challenge!

ChatGPT and CoPilot, which are free, can help with almost anything, so AI will help me figure out which gestures and prompts are best, and then how to insert them into the script.  The benefit, my videos should be better than most of the competition.  

Mistakes and failures make some people quit, but what if you do not quit?   Embrace your mistakes and your failures, and learn all you can.

Thank you for reading.

Much Success,

George Pierce

Hi ALL!  I am George Pierce, this is a post about the value of YouTube shorts.  I am NOT yet sold on the value of YT shorts, and it seems that those who are in the know have not yet come to a conclusion.  Above is a snapshot of my first short for a new channel.  As an ex 'troubleshooter' for a large corporation, I am a firm believer that 'activity breeds activity'.  In the case of a new channel, YT shorts should help.  

Creating a short is easy.  Most popular video editors have a 'highlight' option.  

Above is a snapshot of the Filmora video editor.  When exporting, click the highlight option, and your video editor will automatically create a highlight video about 1 minute long. Some popular video editors that offer this feature include Wondershare Filmora Video Editor, MiniTool MovieMaker, CapCut, and VEED.  You can upload your regular video, and then your highlight video, linking it to your regular video.

The idea is to create an added activity for your channel to help you attract more viewers.  

YT shorts are worth a try.

Thank you for reading.

Much success,

George Pierce

PPS.  Not everything I do works out so well.  I will be sharing a funny blunder soon.

PPPS.  I am adding the following snapshot, it has been 58 minutes according to YT since the above short was published, and it has 89 views.
