Today's the last day of this 5-day email course. You'll hear from me again only via my ezine, or when I have exciting news for you that I'll email to you separately.
Right now, I'm going to share 2 currently under-tapped free resources you can use to boost the downloads of almost any valuable free product you're promoting.
The last tool is a PC-based software that lets you use the Overture.com search tool without leaving your desktop. Enjoy!
1. ZDNET's upload a file tool.. http://upload.cnet.com
It's free to submit your valuable freeware, shareware and other commercial or non-commercial material for possible inclusion on one of the most popular download sites on the Internet.
You can upload useful files like ebooks, software and other useful material to their web site and possibly get hundreds of people quickly downloadingm your products and using them.
Depending on your goals, many of these people could very well become your subscribers and even customers. I've seen many people successfully use this method to get quality free visitors to their lists without using any crazy or unethical traffic generation methods and ideas that don't even last. This one however does last and could get you experiencing 100, 1,000 to as much as 1,000,000 downloads of whatever useful, valuable material you're able to submit.
And it's free to do so. Get details at: http://upload.cnet.com/
2. Tucows Software Library... http://submit.tucows.com
Tucows works for you just like ZDNet. The only difference here is you can get listed in Tucows much quicker than in ZDNet--unless you pay ZDNet around $199 for a quick submission, your software will be uploaded anytime within 6-8 weeks after you submit. Tucows on the other hand will accept your free submissions easily and quickly review you and upload your software within 5-7 business days.
HOT TIP: Get Listed At The TOP at Tucows.com!
There's even a little ethical technique you can use to get to the top of Tucows listings. Just make sure the title of your product starts with a number like (7 Power Steps Ebook) or a letter close to the top like (Autoresponder Gold Ebook)
or (Creative Writing For Success Ebook) etc.,
The reason for this is it appears Tucows lists their submissions in ALPHABETICAL order... that's a plus for almost every submitter who knows about it (now you do:o) You can register with them free and submit your software here: http://submit.tucows.com
3. Keyword Miner (Like having Overture.com on your desktop!) http://www.engineready.com/freeware/keywordminer/index.html
Another good way to quickly discover what the public is searching for and what you can hone in on and offer to them is to have this useful tool working for you. It's a free Windows software tool for finding the perfect set of keywords that prospects will search for to FIND you and thus bring you quality traffic.
You've probably heard it time and time again.. Overture.com is a great place to get traffic to your new web site for under $50. Well, in the past you had to travel all the way to overture.com to check out which keywords were hot and what theme you should base your next product or service on (Overture.com has a useful search tool on their site that you can use to find out the most searched for keywords and variations of them for the past month).
Keyword Miner's creators make it possible for you to search for these keywords at Overture.com *without* ever leaving your desktop. You just download their 100% free tool. Enter what words you feel people would use to search for your new niche product, and Keyword Miner will connect you to Overture.com (and several other top search engines), so you can find out how many people were interested in that product in the past month.
This tool is 100% free - There's No Advertsing - No Nag Screens - No 'Spyware' - No Hassle and they even thrown in free support - The latter is actually something new to me - I mean getting 'free' support with 'free software';-) Anyway, get full details here:
