David Smith is a fellow Alex Jeffreys student who I just met online last night.

I was just out perusing some Alex Jeffreys student blogs and I came across his name. Turns out he has either created or purchased over 100 videos on many tasks that any internet marketer is going to have to do at some point in time.

I dropped by his blog and posted a comment and I told him I would try and pass the word about his videos because I don’t think many of the students know about them.

First off, for those of you that don’t know what I’m talking about let me explain.

Everyone is trying to increase the traffic to their website and one way is to get backlinks to their website. One great way is through commenting on other people’s blogs. The way the search engines see it is if you are getting a link from someone else’s site it basically counts as a vote and increases the PageRank value of your page. Sometimes more than others, depending on who is linking to your webpage.

I’m back. I finally managed to pry the snow blower and shovel out of my hand long enough to sit down and write this post. The last time I talked to you was last Friday and I told you how Alex Jeffreys was holding a competition for his students. He’s going to give away $1,000 to the one who has the most traffic to their blog in a two week period.

I also said I was going to tell you what I’m going to do to drive traffic to my blog before I do it, then I will post the results on my blog.

I mentioned a few posts back that I joined Alex Jeffreys Coaching Program. It’s really called “Marketing With Alex”. The first webinar was November 24th, 2008. That’s not even 4 weeks ago and I have learned so much in so little time. We’ve had 4 or 5 webinars in this time and you talk about great information that Alex is giving us.

Lucky for me all webinars have been around 6:00pm Eastern Time, as I live on the east coast in Massachusetts. Alex and others live in the UK and it’s 5 hours ahead of me so we don’t even start until 11:00pm his time. And I must tell you these are marathons going from 3 to 6 hours.

I just came from a friend of mines blog and he’s made a post about getting a slice of $1 Million. If you’re a student of Alex Jeffreys then you need to go read this at Garry’s blog.

Garry Parkes, one of my fellow students of Alex Jeffreys coaching program called “Marketing With Alex”, is working on something really great. He is calling it “The Profit Pulling Project” which will be like a road-map to success. He plans on publishing it bi-weekly in ebook form around 20 pages long.

WOW! What a night last night. Alex was pumped up and that got me pumped up. Especially when I actually got to talk to him. Man, I felt like a little kid. My hands were sweaty and I found myself just about yelling into my microphone. I don’t know if I was nervous or just excited. Excited I guess, to be talking to someone with the credibility of Alex Jeffreys.

This guy is great and now he is my mentor and friend. My fellow students are great. We are going to accomplish something big here as we are developing a huge blogging network. This wasn’t planned, it just happened I guess. Everybody is helping each other out keeping everyone motivated and excited.

A cry out for help in some people’s mind can sometimes be seen as a sign of weakness. But on the other hand sometimes you just can’t do everything by yourself.

As I mentioned in my previous post, I joined Alex Jeffreys Coaching Program. I had reached a point in my business that I wasn’t growing at the pace that I wanted to and I finally realized that if I was to reach my goals that I have set then I’m going to need some help.
