| Review Title: Simple color-correcting program |
| Date Reviewed: March 21, 2007 |
| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
| Unlike a lot of programs, KaleidoPhoto Pro is happily a small file, so it doesn't take up too much space on your computer and definitely won't bog it down. I have to say it doesn't compare at all with the heavyweights in graphic design and image-editing software such as Corel, Adobe Photoshop, or Paint Shop Pro, since what it simply does is adjust the colors of your image. But it does its job very well and you can't complain about it. The program has a very simple interface so there's no chance of you getting confused about how it works. To get started, you just have to open the image you want to color-adjust. The Color Transform buttons at the bottom of the window quickly converts your image, and the Image Controls at the side is also a breeze to use. Just a note, however: you won't be able to adjust the size of images or even crop them. If you're not that skilled with using image editing programs, KaleidoPhoto Pro can be your best friend because of how easy you can edit your pictures' color quality. |

| Review Title: A great help for designers |
| Date Reviewed: March 22, 2007 |
| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
Oh wow, now this particular program I love. I often have trouble with figuring out the colors in a document using Photoshop, because the Color Sampler Tool only displays up to four samplers, and even then, it doesn't show the hex equivalent. Color Photo Synergizer simply allows you to quickly identify the hex colors in any kind of image file, such as bitmaps, JPEG, TIFF, and GIF. All you have to do is open the image and run your mouse pointer over it and it will instantly give you all the hex colors in your file.
The interface can show you up to nine colors in the file, each swatch indicating where they're located, but you can also randomize the color selection by clicking the 'Randomize!' button to show you other colors in the document. The Mosaic feature also allows you to look at each pixel in the image, but from what I can tell, it only zooms in on one section of the file. It would be nice if you could move around the image for a closer look at the color.
Overall, the Color Photo Synergizer is a very handy helper for Web and graphic designers. |

| Product Reviewed: How To Set Up A Family Budget |
| Category: Free Downloads - All Members |
| Review Title: Very helpful! |
| Date Reviewed: March 22, 2007 |
| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
This e-book takes you through the intricacies of setting up a budget for your family and the things you should consider when preparing one. It explains the importance of having a budget and sticking to it, and also includes some tips sent in by other people. Granted, it doesn't really offer anything new about budgets and money-saving tactics, but it compiles nearly ALL possible relevant tips you would be needing. With 53 pages, you probably wouldn't want to print out the whole thing as a reminder for each member of your family though.
It starts out with an introduction on budgeting and then moves on to other chapters which help you figure out your monthly expenses, things you should cut back, what you need to do to stick to your budget, and how it should be used. It also gives some advice on debt consolidation and also has some pretty good ideas on how you can spend some fun quality time together without breaking the bank.
It's simple, readable, and isn't preachy. I recommend this e-book not just for families, but for anyone who needs to scrimp a little. |

| Review Title: Satisfactory tips, unsatisfactory layout |
| Date Reviewed: March 23, 2007 |
| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
I'm going to have to agree with Karen on this one. While the e-book contains a lot of sound tips and tricks, its layout could also do with a lot of work. The text is too bunched together and can be hard to read.
The 10 mistakes are all too often committed by graphic and Web designers and they could learn quite a bit from this e-book.
I didn't agree with all of the recommendations here, though. There are a couple of sites the e-book identified that I thought already looked pretty good, but then again, it could just be a matter of personal taste. What looks good to one person might look bad/bare/cluttered to another. Same with the design tips. For example, I and other designers I know prefer to use more muted color hues rather than strong and bright ones, but again--personal taste. The e-book makes a number of good points when it comes to typical design mistakes, but one doesn't always need to follow all the tips mentioned here. |

| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
I've visited this site a few times before and just played around with a bunch of different domain names. It's always fun to see which domain names could fetch a lot of money. Of course, I tried this using my own domain and to my surprise, its appraisal score is 188 and its value is $6,580.00, way more than I had spent on it these past four years. I don't know how accurate Leapfish is, but if that's the value of my domain name, then I'm willing to believe that it speaks nothing but the truth.
Apart from that fun little feature, Leapfish also offers articles on domains, domain registration, and news on the latest top-level domains. I didn't even know that TLDs such as .eu, .aero, and .travel already existed. A regularly-updated Leapfish blog might be a good idea to keep people interested in the whole matter of domains.
I think its main attraction is still the domain appraisal system and with good reason. It's a fun way to pass the time. |

I wouldn't call this the definitive guide to dating and relationships, but it will help clear many people's minds. The recommended behavior and courses of action mentioned here are all basically common sense, though they're things many people tend to forget from time to time. I particularly enjoyed the ABCs portion of this e-book. The ABCs of healthy, happy relationships were listed down, followed by the ABCs of unhealthy, sad relationships. It even has tips for people interested in online dating. It ended with a self-help guide though, and the final page contained a sample budget worksheet which would help reduce those messy money arguments. I was expecting a nice wrap-up to the e-book which would encourage the readers to really work at making relationships successful.
The typos in the e-book--such as 'building report' instead of 'building rapport'--may be unnoticeable to some people, but to me, they distract from the content. I'd love to be able to proofread this. I hope an edited, more nicely-laid out version will be released in the future. |

| Review Title: Simple, easy read |

This one is a very easy read and really gives helpful advice to everyone needing help with jobhunting. It's written in a casual tone, perhaps too casual, since it occasionally uses "blah blah blah" when necessary. That's not something you normally see in career guides, is it? It might put off some readers, but you can't argue with the fact that using simple terms and a conversational tone helps people understand more about the topic.
The ebook is entitled 7 Steps To Job Search Success, but it isn't just made up of seven steps. The steps are actually the ebook's chapters and there are other subsections that follow some of these steps, and all of them are extra tips to help you find and land a new job. Anyone reading this ebook will have a clear path to follow in attempting to secure a new job, making this a very good guide. |

| Review Title: Mostly info on using press releases for site promotion |
| Date Reviewed: March 28, 2007 |
| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
Just a note: it recommends that you carefully check your press release first for any typos, but this e-book itself also quite a number of typos. The author needs to go over this again and re-release it.
The book is called Press Release Principles, but it doesn't really say anything more about HOW to write press releases. It only gives basic tips and mostly focuses on how press releases can help your website.
But I have to say this e-book actually elicited my interest. I've been looking for a way to promote some sites via press releases and while I haven't implemented any of these tips yet, the guide still gave me some ideas on how to go about it. I'm not entirely sure if press release sites really do accept press releases for all sorts of websites, so I'm kind of hesitating at the moment, but if I do go for it, I'll definitely be consulting the short e-book. The e-book package also comes with a press release template you can use and a quick HTML guide, by the way.
The tips seem simple enough to follow. I guess what would really be a good measure of this e-book's effectiveness is if everyone tried this out and achieved the same level of success. |

| This e-book is a more than adequate introduction to mystery shopping. It describes what mystery shopping is, what qualities are needed in a mystery shopper, what to be wary of if you're applying to be a mystery shopper, and the duties you will undertake. It's nothing new or groundbreaking, but it does have all the information you're going to need if you're thinking about getting involved in mystery shopping. It's also a decent guide for people who are already working as mystery shoppers and just need a little help in organizing their workload as well as their mystery shopping activities. The e-book also provides lists of equipment and resources for those of us who want to work as a mystery shopper. Save for the typos (my personal pet peeve), I highly recommend this e-book. Good for those who are merely curious, those who are really interested, and those already in this line of work. |

I really got confused the first time I used this and was wondering where on Earth my screenshots were. So I gave up on it after a while and came back to the site a few days later. And what do you know, this time I figured it out. Browser Shots basically takes a picture of your site and displays it as it is rendered in various browsers, hence the name. All you have to do is type your URL, choose which browsers you'd like to see your site in, and hit submit. And THEN you have to wait for 30 minutes for all screenshots to come through.
It's a particularly helpful tool for designers if they want to see how their design would look in other browsers, especially if they only use IE and Firefox. Yet for some reason, it showed that one of my sites looks terrible on a Firefox browser, even though I'm using Firefox myself and don't see anything wrong with my site, so go figure. I only wish Browser Shots had a more instant way to deliver the screenshots to the person who requested them. Waiting 30 minutes to get through the queue of websites awaiting their screenshots is a little annoying. |

| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
...but good enough. Again, it's another small program that's easy to use, although I admit that when I unpacked the files and launched the program, I wasn't too sure how it worked. The program, which goes by the names 'Color Schemer', 'Handy Color Schemer', and 'Portable Color Schemer' (Which is which, anyway? I hope the creator will settle on just one name.), simply identifies the RGB and hex values of the color swatches shown on the interface. It gives you a good idea how certain colors will look. I also thought that the letters and numbers on the interface can't be copied, and it turns out that you actually can. So it's a lot easier for you to copy and paste the color values when you're working on a graphic design or web design project.
For those who don't know what HSV means (it's hue, saturation, value), the program features a View HSV Chart link which takes you to a chart. I think there should have been a brief explanation on this, however.
All in all, it's an adequate product, although I have to say there are better color analysis software out there. |

| Review Title: The e-book's better than the audio |
| Date Reviewed: March 28, 2007 |
| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
It doesn't just focus on regular, everyday eating, but also shares some ways on how kids, vegetarians, older people, and pregnant women can choose good food items. Holiday eating is also given attention, and we all know how important it is to limit one's intake of heavy holiday meals, so that's a nice section.
As much as I enjoyed the tips, because the healthy eating advice provided is sound, I personally find the e-book a little hard to listen to. I like audio books that are read by a nice, smooth, and lively (but not hysterically perky) voice, and this one just sounded bland, mechanical, and even computerized to me.
Overall, this could work a lot better if it were just an e-book, and happily this package includes a PDF of the e-book. It would be easier to have such eating tips printed out and ready for you to consult whenever you think you're backsliding into bad eating habits. |

I didn't really think this was very important, since everybody has blogs nowadays, and in any case, it's a lot easier to set up an account. But I suppose this could be used as a resource for total newbies. I thought it would explore other blogging platforms, and the video chose to go with Blogger. I've been using Blogger for a long time, years before Google acquired it, so I was interested to see what tips this video will give. I didn't agree with some of the video's claims, such as how Blogger or Blogspot accounts are indexed more easily by Google 'since they own it in the first place.'
The whole video shows you how to set up a Blogger or Blogspot account and takes you through each step, from registration to posting, which is a plus for the video, and it also clearly explains each feature. Hopefully, it'll be updated, since the video features an older version of Blogger/Blogspot. |

Like what Jeremy said, not a lot of people know about this Google feature. In fact, this is the first time I've heard of and accessed it, and it took me a while to figure out how it works, I have to admit. It's probably not going to make a lot of sense to those who don't care much for stats and all other website-related details. The Webmaster Help Center, which contains FAQs, is also informative and should help people figure out more about why keywords are important in pulling in traffic and what factors can affect your site's Google rank. Site owners might also be interested in seeing which search queries lead most of their Web traffic to their site and it also has a feature which shows which word most frequently appears in your content.
This tool is worthy of bookmarking if you want to stay updated on how your site is currently doing in Google's listings. |

| Review Title: Not that extreme |
| Date Reviewed: March 28, 2007 |
| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
40 MB is a little heavy, but it's a 15-minute video, so that's understandable. The video basically consisted of a review of and recommendations for a certain website. I was expecting that there would also be some layout and design work shown, but it mostly focused on the content. While the speaker has some good tips on how to make a site that sells, there are a number of comments I don't particularly agree with. For example, there was a section which said the website offers free edits for a year. Seems like he didn't fully understand that the resume writing service will deliver the job promptly, and that any edits or additions can be included for free for a period of one year. Also, some of the details which the speaker describes as confusing are actually pretty clear already.
From time to time, the speaker speaks in a loud voice, almost shouting, whenever he's stressing a point, and repeats 'damn' a few times. Not very necessary. So in summary, this makeover video is not that extreme at all. |

You've got four e-books at your disposal which you can resell. But are they all worth getting?
- 7 Infamous Resell Rights Questions Answered: It doesn't just let your potential buyers learn more about reselling. It will actually help YOU as well.
- The Golden Rules For Acquiring Wealth: This could have just as easily been written in plain and simple language rather than resorting to flowery words talking about things like "the finest coaches" and words of advice like "let hope predominate but be not too visionary." It almost makes me wonder if this is a financial guide from many decades ago, because I can't imagine financial books nowadays being written in this tone anymore. Moneysaving and moneymaking tips should be clear, simple, and easy to read.
- The Might Of Character Building: It's written in the same tone as The Golden Rules For Acquiring Wealth. It's written as one continuous article and not chopped up into chapters, which makes it a tedious read, even if the content is worthwhile.
- Landing Page Success Guide: This short e-book is an effective guide to optimizing your landing pages. I like how it clearly describes what one needs to do to improve a site's landing page. |

With the number of recipes available here, you wouldn't need to think of romantic meals or wonder which restaurant to visit for Valentine's Day. The selection ranges from breakfast to dinner and even desserts and some mixed drinks. Predictably, you're going to see a lot of 'hearts', 'chocolates', and 'strawberries' in the recipe names. There's even one called "Prawns Of Passion," which just sounds very amusing. Health fiends be warned: this will not contain a list of organic treats, vegetarian delights, or dishes for healthy eating because this contains a lot of food that's just dripping with carbs and sugar. Of course, everyone's free to play around with their own versions of the recipes.
It makes use of a lot of red food coloring, though, in keeping with the color of Valentine's Day. Sometimes, it makes a recipe sound odd, such as red mashed potatoes.
Otherwise, this e-book is laden with lots of food you're going to want to try cooking or baking. You can just whip up several of the dishes here and you'll still have enough meal ideas for the next several Valentine's Days. |

A large chunk of the e-book is devoted to extolling the virtues of exercise, and you're going to need to go over that section, especially if you have a hard time dragging yourself to move your muscles. It's well-written and is a good, organized guide. I like how it offers gym workout suggestions that are broken up into certain periods of time, making the whole process less daunting and lengthy. But its ideas for working out anywhere you are are top-notch, because they really make you see that you can work out at your desk, at home, and with your family too.
I wish the three floor exercises shared here came with illustrations though, just so people can see how they're done. But this e-book gives some very good ideas on how you can integrate working out in your daily life and even in your work schedule and makes it sound so easy. |

Before this, I only know about registering potentially popular domains so some company out there will buy it from you at a hefty price. But I;ve never heard of cashing in on expired domains before, so this caught my eye. The e-book clearly explains why taking control of expired domains is profitable and how you can use it to your advantage, so it had my mental gears clicking and spinning right away trying to think of possible domains I could look up and perhaps use in the future. It also explains why domains expire and also shares some caveats about buying expired domains. The e-book also doesn't leave the reader in the dark and provides the URLs of sites which can help people find out which domains can be used. It would be good if information on what you should do if you got hold of a site marked for spamming without you knowing it, though.
By the way, I noticed the writer made the Maldives his example again for domains, much like he made it his example in the Travel Niche e-book, so it appears he has a fondness for the traveling-to-Maldives niche. |

It's a daunting collection, so you'd better be prepared to pore through the recipes here. The e-books cover different foods, like egg recipes, Italian cuisine, CrockPot recipes, etc. The salad section alone runs up to 374 recipes, and that's just ONE e-book out of a collection of...a lot more than that.
There's nothing fancy-schmancy about the recipes. It's not going to give you nutrition information or tips on where you should buy your ingredients. They're clear and straightforward: they list the ingredients and the steps, and if you're lucky, you would even be treated to the occasional photograph. That's one of my main beefs about this collection. You're going to come up with a massive recipe book, you'd better include pictures to show people how wonderful your dishes are, and also to give them a guide as to how the meal will turn out. Apart from the lack of pictures, I would probably only recommend a reformatting of the pages, just to spice up the look. Not bad if you're just going to print out a page at a time to refer to when you're cooking, though. |

The advice given here seems like it applies to all kinds of writing, not just web content writing, so that makes it appealing to different writers. The way the author dishes out tips will have you convinced that you CAN write articles in the blink of an eye, plus the samples provided could serve as very good templates for your future articles. It's also amusing how one of the tips provided states that you should 'be wordy,' and it totally goes against many writing guidelines which encourage you to be as concise as possible.
And it's not just the article writing part which should hold your attention. It also mentions how you can create teasers to get people to read your piece and how to make engaging author bios. They're all very useful guidelines if you want to build yourself up as a content writer.
The writer of this e-book clearly knows all about producing good content so anyone interested in stepping up their article writing pace will find this very helpful. |

This e-book pack is made up of two books: 50 Children's Christian Stories and Big Book of Classic Christmas Tales. The former is clearly very Christian and refers a lot to biblical characters and stories, but as stories for children, the moral lessons and values are pretty much obvious. The moral to be learned is included after each story's title, but it strikes me weird because sometimes, it says "Moral: Envy", "Moral: Lying," or "Moral: Selfishness," and it sounds to me like those things are what the book is encouraging.
The Christmas stories is made up of over 200 pages and over 30 stories, so it's a keeper if your family has a tradition of telling Christmas stories by the fire during the holidays. Quite a number of them are excerpts from various stories or books, so it may even be a good way to ease young children into getting interested in the actual books. This would probably even be some hefty content for Christmas-related websites. |

This e-book is made up of all of 52 pages, but it's a very good read, and I think I myself learned quite a lot from this. This is a big help for those who want to venture into producing content. It also lets people in on how to increase Adsense revenue and how to greatly benefit from affiliate programs. There's also a sizeable list of resources and useful links.
I'm not sure it should have been called "Article Writing Secrets" though, because it focuses more on drumming up interest and revenue from the content you will be writing rather than how to write articles. The topic was addressed in the first couple of pages and then the e-book dwelled mainly on marketing and earning money from your work. Generally though, I like how this e-book advises people on how to market their products/content in a subtle way, but also stresses how everyone should refrain from spamming and doing some blatant self-promotion. The moneymaking ideas are also very good. I'm extremely keen on trying out the tips given here to see for myself how they could be of use to me. |

When I read the words 'PC Protection,' I thought it was going to be an e-book about protecting one's servers and computers from trojans, spyware, viruses--you get the drift. It turns out that it was talking about real DISASTERS that could strike your computer, from fires to earthquakes to a bug attack, and this means real-life crawling critters. This is a pretty important guide to have, especially since people are now so focused on protecting their computers from spyware et. al. that we forget that there are other external forces that could also be disastrous for us.
It recommends a number of products that are helpful in easing or preventing any problems that could come up. It also provides a number of tips that should already be practiced by anyone with common sense, yet still forget about (like the fact that we shouldn't eat anywhere near our computers).
Apart from being an informative e-book, it's also very entertaining and parts of it are written in a very light-hearted tone. Every computer-based business should have a copy of this one. It would definitely help protect their business from disaster. |

I'm not too well-versed yet in the concept of search engine optimization, Adsense tactics, and niche websites, so this e-book's introduction to niche websites and how to carve a particular niche is educational. Choosing a niche market is also discussed and it offers some ideas to help you decide.
On the topic of travel niche itself, it presents some very convincing arguments why travel is a great thing to look into if you're planning to strike out for the niche website arena. Reading some of the writer's ideas will make you smack your forehead and ask, "Why on earth didn't I think of that?" I'm sure this e-book will give you a nose for sniffing out possible niche markets out there.
On another note, I can see this e-book also followed certain recommended marketing tactics. Most of its topics are written in such a way that demonstrates the writer's knowledge and ends with a line inviting readers to read more about it on the website, sure to gather hits and revenue. Very smart. |

| Review Title: Content is good, but the book needs to be edited |
| Date Reviewed: April 07, 2007 |
| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
Just to get this thought out of the way: this e-book is very exuberant. Especially when you read a sentence in the introduction which says "I decided to...reveal my secrets!!!" Yeah, it's got a lot of exclamation points littered throughout the e-book, which are probably meant to convey excitement and positivity, but which are no-nos in writing.
Anyway, it's not a very well-written e-book, to be quite frank. Sure, the principles and guidelines are easily understandable, but there's something about the e-book itself that made my attention wander. Also, it's mostly made up of extremely brief, even one-sentence paragraphs. Probably not a problem for many people, but I'm personally displeased by them, especially if they're all following a single idea and should have been put together in one paragraph in the first place, to make it even more easy to follow. If you find it hard to read (just the format, not the wording) but somehow plow through it anyway, you'll find that most of the tips are very encouraging and worth following. |

Okay, was this e-book talking about being a professional pirate? I'm not too clear on that one, so someone please enlighten me. It talks about copying audio, videos, and files onto CDs or DVDs, so I guess that would be anyone's first thought.
If you already know all about CD-Rs, CD-RWs, DVD-Rs, DVD+RWs, if you already use CD/DVD burning software, if you're already familiar with the process, feel free to skip the first, oh, 24 pages of this 28-page e-book. You won't find anything new here, unless you don't know some of the related terminology, like Block Error Rate or what organic dye is. The information on turning CD duplication as a side business is given on pages 25 to 26, and even then, they're only basic tips on how you can get this business started. I reckon this e-book should have just been called "All About CD Duplication" rather than pulling in readers with the "Making Money" line. |

| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
| It's not written like a regular e-book which is normally divided neatly into several chapters and headed by an introduction. It looks more like an FAQs section in a website, as a numbered list that runs up to 50 items. It's still simple enough however, and it's a good format for those who really want answers to their questions about setting up a home-based business. It has answers to everything, from why you would want your own business, how to market it, how to do some research on your potential competitors, what you should learn about filing your taxes, and how to handle it if you're going away on holiday, if you've gone broke, and if you've already become so rich you can actually afford to end your business. Overall, a useful resource for people hoping to launch their own company, although it would be a good idea to read the first several items before the tips on how to manage your company if you're already going international. |

| Review Title: A thorough guide |
| Date Reviewed: April 07, 2007 |
| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
The title grabbed me right away because I had no idea what 'digital trash' meant. Turns out it was referring to free products or e-books you can get online and resell, so that's one mystery cleared up for those of you who are wondering about it too. This book is all about reselling and the steps you need to take to resell and actually make money from it. Some of the tips include starting a membership site, launching your own paid online course or newsletter, and building an e-book collection. It's good how the chapters are organized into several subsections, which tell you how to get started, the pros and cons, and how you can make money from each step.
The e-book is well-written and fairly simple, and it presents concrete ideas for making the most out of reselling. Complete newbies might need to learn about some terms first before delving into this, but otherwise, readers won't have any trouble grasping the concepts presented. |

| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
It's not just a for-Christmas-season-only guide, but it's one that's helpful all year round, so I don't see why the title would just specifically target Christmas. After all, safe online shopping shouldn't just be practiced during the holidays. It explains payment methods and how to understand product descriptions so you know what you're getting. Some people would find the information shared here to be very basic, but it's not bad for those who have yet to grasp the concept of online safety and protecting one's identity and credit card information on the Internet. It would probably be a good idea if it also provided more detailed information on reliable shopping websites and how you can spot possible scams, and also to whom you should file complaints if a company took your money and failed to deliver a product.
All in all, this e-book is not particularly exceptional, and contains mainly standard info. I wouldn't recommend getting this if you already know how to protect yourself online. |

Mushiness alert! This seems to be written specifically for male readers looking for ways to woo the women they love, since the ideas shared are mainly focused on making a woman feel special. It's not a bad collection, really, and Michael Webb seems to have had fun thinking of all 101 romantic moves. I say it's worth a look and a download, provided you really don't balk at such recommendations and are willing to try these out.
Apart from men who need suggestions for romantic dates, another group who will benefit from this e-book's content are those who run romance and dating websites. We all know that people are incredibly big fans of love, romance, and dating topics, and your visitors will definitely appreciate what this e-book has to offer.
The end of the e-book enumerates other works written by the author. Thanks to the content found in this one, I'm actually curious to read more about his thoughts and opinions on relationships. |

It's full of fun Christmas stuff, from stories, trivia, activities, and of course, recipes. The content appears to be taken from the author's other Chrismas-related books and neatly compiled in this one. It's a fine source of ideas for the holiday season and would be a great help for you when you're planning what activities to include in your celebrations.
The Christmas trivia's particularly interesting, and it will help you learn more about Christmas traditions and how they started. The section on recipes is also pretty good. It focuses primarily on desserts and Christmas candy, but it has some apparently healthful meal ideas for the big night. I can imagine how parents will find this a great guide in making Christmas fun for their kids.
The e-book is detailed and well-written. You might want to consider picking this one up and adding it to your library even though at present it's nowhere near Christmas. It'll help you plan some ideas for later this year. |

Anyone thinking about getting involved in Internet marketing but have doubts about one's chances of success can benefit from this e-book. I like how blunt the rebuffs are--they leave no doubt in your mind that the pervasive beliefs about Internet marketing are really ridiculous.
Some of the BS mentioned here can be contradictory, like the one about how easy it is to make money from the Internet and another one about how hard it is to make money online, but that's just the e-book detailing just a few of the misconceptions crawling around. It's written simply and casually and sounds like it's just talking to its reader. Some of the misconceptions identified here could use a little extra explanations though, such as item number 14.
Overall, this is an encouraging read. I particularly like how it helps push people to become independent money earners and how it teaches people to make an effort and not rely on quick-cash schemes. |

This one's very easy to install and even easier to use. Don't worry, it won't crowd your computer at all because the program only takes up over 200 KB of space, quite possibly a rarity in most software nowadays, so this alone pleased me already. Interface is very simple. All you have to do is, indeed, fill in the blanks and hit the next button and in just a few minutes you've got an e-newsletter all set to go. You can easily view the results of your, um, hard work by selecting the options after the entire process. You can either see how it looks in the browser or you can also save the HTML file, which is happily editable, so you'll have no trouble customizing the look and content even further. If you mess up, there's always the 'back' button which will let you re-edit your work.
It's the easy option for those who have no clue how to make webpages and design newsletters. For those who already have a considerable level of expertise, this will just allow you to save some time on your work. |

Prepare to sit down and absorb the contents of this e-book. If you're really keen on learning how to make positive thinking work for you, you shouldn't simply rush through the advice given here. Even if you already finish it, it's something you're going to want to keep handy and regularly check for reference, just in case you forget some of the lessons here.
This lengthy e-book doesn't just focus on positive thinking itself, but also helps you pump up your own self-esteem, which would help you in thinking more positively. It also lets you in on the various aspects which contribute to a better, improved outlook on life and helps you develop them. It's not at all preachy and I like how it gives you exercises and activities to work on.
There's not a lot of things I could find wrong about this one, except perhaps for the placement of the footnotes, but that's just a very minor problem. |

I thought it was going to be a very special kind of record-keeping software, but as it turns out, it only generates three forms: one for medical history, another for treatment records, and one for medication records. I'm going to say that sure it's helpful for those who need some help in making files like this or those who don't have the time to set up new spreadsheets, but in truth, anyone can easily do this, and, to me at least, there's no need to have a form-generating software for this purpose.
On the upside, there are two e-books that come with this download, and they give good advice on pet care. Both e-books come with over 100 recipes for meals, medicines, and special diets that are easy to prepare, and pet owners will find that they're all very good and different meal options for their furry friends, especially if they don't want their pets to get used to commercial pet food. |

There aren't any other words for it: this program is so ridiculously simple to use and it would be hard to imagine anyone finding difficulty in using this. All you have to do is install it and then run it and you're ready to go. I would agree with Karen that the URLs it generates aren't exactly good-looking ones. The format goes "http://www.runurl.com/xx.php?," with what I think is the ID of your website appearing after the question mark. Though it's definitely a lot shorter, they're certainly nothing easy to remember, but as long as the program does the job of shortening a URL, then that's okay.
Other features offered by the software includes relevant Internet marketing articles which are regularly updated as well as new downloads you might be interested in. This is yet another small software (just over 3 MB), but you'd probably want to stick with online URL shrinkers like TinyURL if you don't want to spend a few minutes downloading this one. |

For those, you need to have a FreeIQ account. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who's into Internet marketing and Web 2.0 stuff, but don't want to have to do any reading.

It clearly details what you can and cannot do when selling this e-book, so make it a point to look over the first few pages carefully and make sure you have all the legal details to heart.
Anyway, I felt this e-book was speaking to me in the introduction, when the author said that a large percentage of the people reading it will NOT do anything with the knowledge they've acquired. I may not be planning on selling e-books online though, but with the tips given here, at least I'll have a good idea how to go about should I ever feel inclined to do so. It reads like an everything-you-want-to-know-about-ebooks kind of guide, and helps you learn more about things like resell rights, how to get started on writing one, and what tools you can use to promote and sell your e-book, staying organized, among tons of other topics. It's a very detailed resource, and newbies and e-book pros alike can learn something from this one. |

You would have to be really devoted to the topic addressed here to get through this e-book that runs up to over 100 pages. It offers a lot of options that allow you to make more money elsewhere and not just from your office job, from selling on eBay, offering products and services on the side, and, of course, Internet marketing and blogging. But apart from money-making ideas you can use, it also helps you adopt the get-wealthy mindset and change your point of view on money and rich people to visualize exactly how much money you want to be getting.
The e-book is clearly written, although occasionally dotted by typos, and the advice seems pretty well thought-out and practical. The author also provides some examples that worked for him and his family. I think the author would have also have benefited more from this if he did some heavier promotion of his works, ideas, and his website throughout the whole e-book, too. |

This is a good resource for people who are serious about and genuinely interested in keeping and maintaining an aquarium. It's a short, good-looking e-book you can view with an e-book viewer, making it appear like a small, readable, and easy-to-navigate website. But it's definitely not for people who just want to decorate their homes. If you're one of them, then the authors would rather you don't just randomly choose fishes, corals, and other kinds of water creatures just for fun or because they're pretty. They seem to be pretty emphatic in the e-book that people with no real interest in this hobby should forget about it altogether.
This contains information on how to spot good fish by looking at their conditions in the pet shop's aquarium and what questions you need to ask to make sure you're buying quality fish (or corals, live rock, etc.). Get this one if you're just starting out or if you need more advice. |

First of all, it's a very catchy title, and clearly lets you know that this is an ebook on making money your way, on your own terms, without having to rely on an employer for a living. Clearly, Internet marketing is one of the hottest options for this purpose nowadays, and this e-book provides plenty of advice for success in this field.
I also like the chapter which had a section talking about writing e-books. I daresay that its mere section is a lot better than many other e-books out there which provide e-book writing tips. Still, the e-book itself could use the services of a proofreader. Happily though, I didn't think that there were so many errors as to be annoying and unreadable. But a little more improvement definitely wouldn't hurt.
This e-book goes well with a lot of other Internet marketing and home-based business books out there. Add this to your library if you want to maintain a good list of resources on the subject. |

Dan Lok is very enthusiastic in sharing his ideas in this video. Not a bad thing, because he speaks loudly and clearly and really keeps your attention riveted to the video. He also explains all the reasons why you should maximize your order form, keenly stresses the key points being raised here, and analyzes the site he's using a sample, explaining why this or that part is important.
When the file is unzipped, it runs up to a file size of nearly 9 MB, and the instructional video runs for seven minutes and twenty-seven seconds. Happily, it's a Flash video that loads directly into the HTML file included in the whole packed file. It's interesting how this video's length shows that you don't have to have a really long video in order to discuss your chosen topics and explain all the concepts. I'd say it's also another good example of the creator's Internet marketing skills and know-how. |

I can see how this is going to help a lot of people. The forms database has a lot of legal letters and documents you can freely use, although they do sell some formatted templates for nearly $10. But if you're a pretty slick Microsoft Word user, there's no need for you to pay and all you have to do is copy, paste, edit, and format. It also offers power of attorney forms for all US states, and the fact that the documents are tailored to suit different states and situations is pretty impressive. I'm sure it must have taken a lot of work.
This site tackles all things law-related, and even has a generous database of law schools, a list of 250 top US law firms, and salary listings for different legal positions. But the content doesn't just focus on the US. It also provides links to law-related sites all over the world. ILRG.com is very extensive and helpful, in my opinion. |

Scary. It really can generate information about various IP addresses, and yours will also be displayed at the very top of the page. I thought I would need an account to use this, but at the bottom, you can see the domain, IP, and host name tests, which you can happily use for free. That section should be placed in a more visible area of the main page in order to let visitors see them right away and test the tools.
I particularly like the spam testing feature. All you need to do is type your IP address and it will look up spam databases to check for your IP. I need this one because for some reason, I try to leave comments in sites sometimes but get rejected by some, telling me that I'm a spammer though that was the first time I visited the site. Go figure.
This one's a great tool. I wouldn't recommend this to total newbies or people who have no idea what a DNS or 'pinging' is, though. |

Call me geeky, but I found this a very exciting tool to use. It's very amazing to see exactly how your website is faring compared to all the other websites in your category. I spent a lot of time here analyzing how various websites compare to other bigger websites in the same category. It's a handy tool to use alongside your usual website traffic trackers, because while trackers take a look at your actual incoming traffic and your stats over a period of time, this one really lets you see how your site is doing in rankings.
It has a similarity with site trackers though, and that is its 'Link Popularity' feature which shows you how many sites are linking to you. MarketLeap will also help you keep track of how keyword-rich your site is. This tool is highly recommended for website owners who really aim to make their sites climb to the top of search engine results. |

The book mainly contains, yes, a total of fourteen common mistakes people make that prevent them from achieving success in the Internet marketing field.

| This has nice and detailed content, and the author explains everything in simple terms which should make it easy for newbies. The three e-books in this package cover the basics of resell rights, products with resell rights, and how to build an online business based on resell rights marketing. The author has a lot to say on the topic, so it makes sense to divide the concept appropriately. This pretty much covers everything you want to know about resell rights, so be sure to grab this one for your personal collection. The e-book does a fair job of telling you why getting into this field is a lot better than relying on affiliate programs for your online moneymaking methods. It's a great product for beginners, who will definitely obtain a lot of knowledge from this collection, but the third volume of this collection will greatly benefit even the experienced resell rights marketers, too. |

I hardcode my sites and have been doing so for quite sometime now, and while it's fun, it does get a bit tedious, and it's no good at all when I forget some codes and elements. This software can really make it easy for you, and all you have to do is fill in the necessary fields, click a button, and boom!

| Date Reviewed: April 28, 2007 |
| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
If you have neither the time nor the patience to sit down and really read and absorb the contents of a complete e-book guide to any Internet marketing topic you like, you will find that this collection is your best friend. At most, the actual content in each e-book only consists of four pages and you can even find content spanning only one page here, too, with the other pages containing resell rights information, site promotions, and the like.
Does it seem like a waste to get an e-book collection when the length of the products inside can't even be considered appropriate proper e-books? Not if you really do prefer getting your information in a bite-sized (compared to many e-books out there) format. Besides, despite the brevity of the text, it still offers good tips and tricks for the readers. I'd say this is a good one to get if you're not a fan of the longer e-books out there. |

| Review Title: A joy to read |
| Date Reviewed: April 28, 2007 |
| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
| The Fun of Getting Thin is a very fun e-book to read. The style is witty, humorous, irreverent, and isn't chockfull of condescending advice that will tell you how much better off you will be if you lost all those unwanted pounds. I like how it doesn't mince words about the agony of dieting, weight-loss procedures, and the moment you realize that you are, indeed, fat. It's an extremely short e-book as well, and it won't give you any tips on how you can lose the weight. This is more a personal recollection by the author and his experience should be enough to help you realize that you really can get moving to shed your extra weight. He isn't telling his readers to exactly what he did to lose weight and simply wants people to know that if he was able to accomplish weight loss, then they (we) certainly can. That's part of the charm of this e-book. |

| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
Eh, this one has a lot of distracting typos--spelling, punctuation, you name it. And I really really dislike having to spot typos in documents because it gives the impression that the e-book wasn't reviewed prior to publishing, and suggests some carelessness on the author's part.
As for the content, you can see that the MP3 players mentioned here aren't exactly the latest models currently out in the market, but that doesn't make the factors and considerations any different. The advice given here takes into account the user's preferences and lifestyle, which would be major deciding factors in people's purchases no matter what music players are presently being offered. The e-book is also like a short course on audio formats, accessories, and the sites where you can get your music. It has the potential to have lasting appeal because it doesn't look like MP3 players are going away anytime soon, and people really will need a guide on how to purchase the right ones. |

| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
Strange, this e-book was divided into three sections. It probably started out as three different e-books and were just compiled together as an afterthought. But even so, if they were going to be presented as one report anyway, it should at least have been reorganized and the portions introducing the second and third installment as well as the report summaries after each section should have been cut out as well.
To me, some questions here don't appear to have received proper answers, because the author pointed out that the concerns raised by the particular query aren't very important. Thankfully, he did say why they're not important and gives advice on better ways to approach the idea. The responses to all 15 questions are also summarized after each chapter, but they're basically condensed versions of the answers previously given.
All in all, it's mostly a helpful resource. Even if you're not into Internet marketing and are just curious about it, you can get some answers here. |

| Assuming you haven't read any other e-books dedicated to the topic of creating e-books, this one is a pretty decent product to start with. This e-book doesn't just take you through the steps of coming up with topics to write about, how to write about them, and what you can do when you're at a loss for ideas. This is also a guide to help you attain online publishing success, with tips on how to price your e-books, how to market them, and how you can use them as promotional materials. Of course, although the author is talking about the e-book writing and publishing process, and even provides some great ideas, the e-book itself needs a lot of work when it comes to the formatting and in promoting his other products and website. It's not a particularly attractive e-book, lookswise. Typos abound, and at certain points, even the ideas falter, making the content look haphazard. |

You can view this e-book in an e-book viewer, which makes the entire set-up really quite attractive compared to the usual PDF document e-books normally come in. It contains a large collection of nicely written articles on the subject which all came from various sources. And lest you think they were lifted from others' content, they are actually created by contributors, who were all properly thanked. There are plenty of articles here, some of them humorous, others serious, but they're all really good reads, and could be an enormous help if you need some advice on this issue.
This e-book can also be freely distributed. It probably won't translate to earnings for you, but if you have such a good product like this on your site, people might come in droves to check out what else you have to offer. Keep a copy of this for yourself too--it's highly entertaining. |

Ah, now this one is a pretty hefty package. When you unpack this, it will eat up 43 MB of space on your computer. It contains four instructional videos, which the creator himself says are made especially for the newer users. The videos mainly give you help on how you can boost your online earnings and your site traffic, plus there are also tutorials online which will guide you in using Feedback Analyzer Pro. The videos are very clear and the instructions are simple enough for even newbies to follow.
Basically, the software one really does what it's supposed to. It's very simple, all you have to do is input the eBay user's name, the appropriate eBay site, and click "Analyze." Mind you, it can only analyze feedback given to eBay users in the US, UK, Australia, and Canada, so hopefully, there will be an option for other international users in the future. Everyone making a living off eBay selling would find Feedback Analyzer Pro a really helpful tool. |

It would look like this e-book jumped to the meat of the matter without bothering with an introduction, but you'll find that the first section serves as the introduction.
This details AND sums up all the sales letter reminders you've ever read in e-books about marketing. It also gives tips on how to make your sales letter look attractive, and not just your offers and the way you write it, but its overall design, which is what some sales letter writers tend to forget about.
Some sections might seem repetitive, like the one that talks about 'why sales letters lose business' and another one that lists common mistakes, but they each explore different aspects of the topic. But the ones talking about how to write a good sales letter, the secrets to writing an effective sales letter, and the ten basic rules to writing them are just too much and should have just been contained in one whole chapter, or at least in several chapters in a row instead of scattered all over the e-book. The e-book could have done with better organization and should have been divided into chapters so as to explore similar concepts in one section. |

Here are just a few comments I'll make to get them out of the way:
- some pages' formatting needs work
- it contains a number of typos
I thought it was going to reveal some hard-hitting facts about making crazy amounts of money through membership websites, but this mainly contains the usual information on how to set up a membership site, what products you can offer, how to promote it, and what tools you can use. I understand they're helpful in increasing your chances of making money, but the e-book's title gave the impression that it will be talking about earning schemes.
It contains some good links and resources relevant to setting up a membership site, but I noticed that what was missing was an 'About The Author' section, as well as any links to the author's website. It would have been a good chance to promote oneself, or at least let readers know more about who's behind the e-book. |

The author of this e-book shows great enthusiasm and passion for selling in niche markets, which you can clearly see throughout the e-book. He compiles a lot of anecdotes from his personal experiences which showcase highlights of his success, so I suppose this goes well with the "confessions" bit. He also recommends, and this is probably the first time I've read this suggestion, selling e-books on CD as well, which he says would actually help you boost sales and promote your other products. Another tactic he suggests is to have youw own business cards made, just one of the tips given to help you organize your Internet business.
The e-book isn't going to spoonfeed you the niche markets you can explore, but it does help you think of ways to come up with ones you can take advantage of, and the author's stories about how he came up with ideas might inspire you as well. |

This e-book introduces a somewhat different concept--charging for your products exactly what they're worth. As it points out, many people underprice their products to attract more buyers with lower prices. But this e-book shows you that prices are also reflective of a product's quality. It'll be an interesting idea for e-book writers and Internet marketers out there to explore, if they're not already making use of this tactic.
The whole thing is written in an easy-to-understand manner and is pretty casual and conversational, so I can imagine this working well as an audio file/podcast as well. I think the 'Goals Of This Section' text preceding the section's actual text should be removed, because if it's all written well enough, then the author need not inform readers what the objectives are.
Once again, this is an e-book which could have done with including the author's URL, at least, or some links to relevant pages, just to generate more interest and site traffic. |

It extensively details and discusses the Google Adwords program and provides an explanation about it too, so it will be helpful for both newbies and those who have already been using it for a while. It has plenty of advice on avoiding keyword spamming, preventing unwanted traffic, and it also tells you how to maximize the Adwords service. Getting this e-book will also provide you with a big bonus: master resell rights. One of the things I noticed about the e-book is that it needs more organized page formatting and the writing could use some work, too, so if you're going to resell this e-book, you'd probably have a lot more satisfied customers and readers if this was more well-written.
The footer also calls it 'Google Adsense Primer' which might puzzle some readers, and there's also a Frequently Asked Questions portion which seems extraneous, because the issues those questions addressed could have been placed in the Adwords introduction instead. |

This contains quite a number of videos with instructions on how to keep your website's content safe and inaccessible to unwanted visitors. The video's creator doesn't actually show you how to do it all from scratch, but mostly he just takes you to websites that can make this possible, such as the videos with information on how to disable the right-click function and how to encrypt your HTML. I'd say it's probably best for those who are just starting out to get more involved in creating and maintaining websites, although there are tips for the more seasoned website owners as well.
He also explains each step and lets the viewers see other possible options for each action he performs, and corrects himself when he makes some errors. The video quality is pretty good, and I think I would give the audio 7/10, though the speaker speaks clearly and the instructions and comments are easily understood. Overall, it's a pretty good series and worth keeping even if you don't need all of the information shared here just yet. |

| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
| This promises to be a helpful little program, since it counts how many times all the words, not just keywords, appear in a file. Unfortunately, it has to be an HTML file you're loading for Keyword Coach to analyze, so this won't be of much help to you if you're writing a keyword-rich article in a word processing program like Microsoft Word. But it works with .txt files although it takes a while to be processed compared to HTML files. Also, it only counts individual words, and it doesn't seem like there's an option to select entire phrases you want to use as keywords. It's a good option though if you're only trying to count how frequently one-word keywords show up in a page. Happily, it allows you to exclude common words like "I," "the," "and," and "is." There are probably better keyword analysis programs out there, but this one is sufficient enough to do the job. |

Happily, it won't take you forever to view these videos, since the longest one runs for 14 minutes. The videos offer advice on various topics such as outsourcing, conceptualizing your products quickly, and developing your products. By products, the video's creator is referring to texts and e-books, it seems like.
He has quite a lot to say on the matter and explains everything clearly, taking his time on each concept. It's probably not the best choice for people who want to get the information in a flash and want everything explained quickly. Anyway, I personally feel that there's not a lot of things here that you really need to watch in order to follow some advice step by step, and it's all still very easy to understand even if you're simply listening to the video's speaker. Most of the time, he lingers on a single page, speaking all the while, so some of you may want to just listen to what he has to say. |

Ebook Secrets Revealed is made up of eight videos running for a total of nearly two hours, so you are going to want to take your time really watching these. The topics range from adding video to ebooks, tracking how many times your ebooks have been viewed, to password-protecting them, quite honestly some things I didn't even know were possible with ebooks (I get it, that's why they're 'e-book secrets'). So if you didn't know these tricks either, be prepared to concentrate on these videos. You're going to need to refer to the collection from time to time if you're going to implement these secrets in your e-book, and it also looks like you're going to need some of the software used for the e-books, too.
As always, the creator dwells on and delves deeply into the topics the videos are focusing on. This is a pretty good collection, and you'll definitely learn a lot from it. |

At first glance, I thought this video collection would be talking about PHP or ASP techniques you can easily learn, but it's actually specifically targeting Internet marketers' needs. The ten videos included here discuss making order pages, redirects, and creating affiliate links. I was only half-right, though, the features that would enable you to implement these programming tricks really require a little bit of PHP know-how. But there's no need to worry if you haven't got PHP experience at all. You will also be talked through the whole process of setting up a PHP file and how to call the commands in your HTML file, so it will be easier for you to follow.
Some of the programming tricks involve Javascript, by the way, which is something a lot of people can do nowadays, but here, you will see how they can be best used for marketing websites.
I don't think you'll have trouble following the recommendations at all, especially since you can simply watch what the creator is doing with the codes and files. |

Even seasoned computer users and Internet surfers could benefit from the advice provided here. It provides information on phishing, spyware, viruses, and how you can keep them from attacking your computer. Pretty basic tips, really, but ones which most people fail to remember.

It's written in an extremely casual manner, which is okay sometimes, but somehow makes parts of this e-book sound a bit like a joke. Plus, I wouldn't recommend following ALL the tips provided here, although it does contain some good ones as well. It's up to you to sift through the information. |

This product pack contains four e-books: Show Me The Plan! parts one and two, Personality Quadrants Dating Guide, and Dealing With Loneliness. All of them are written in an easy-to-read format and the content is nicely organized, making them a highly-recommended collection, in my book. Of course, it contains the occasional typo here and there, but that should be easily remedied, and doesn't distract from the content of the text. If you'll be distributing this collection, you can be sure that you're offering your visitors e-books on diverse topics, because they touch on self-improvement, romance, and Internet marketing.
The author did a good job of promoting any special offers by ending the e-book with a last-minute special bonus. I was a bit baffled by the 'recommended resources' section though because normally, one would expect the resources to be related to the e-book's topic. Instead, they were all about Internet marketing and online payment options. |

It could be just due to personal preferences, but I didn't find this one particularly engaging. I also think it might be due to the text and paragraph formatting, which makes the whole document a bit difficult to follow because the sentences all look so fragmented and disjointed. In this case, I think reediting the arrangement of the paragraphs would be a big help. Maybe then, it would be easier to follow the e-books train of thought.
Apart from that however, the author does a pretty good job of directing his readers to his website, which promises more information and materials on the subject being discussed. As for the content itself, I admit I found myself having to reread entire chapters all over again to grasp the message.
Note: the first eight pages dwelled on the author's biography, how you can make money from the e-book, and bonuses you can receive, too. Worth a look, although I must say that it's a rather long section to pore over before you get to the heart of the subject. |

People who are going to use this one should ideally have some working knowledge of Adobe Photoshop, because you won't be able to modify the graphics if you have no idea how to manipulate PSD files. It should be easy enough for you to figure it out, though. It contains a wealth of not just headers, but also buttons, and backgrounds you really can use for your site, so when it comes to your graphics at least, you'll be ready for your next several websites.
The whole package also contains some tutorials on how to make headers, buttons, and backgrounds, although I have to say that it doesn't sound extremely helpful to me. The audio quality is really quite terrible and you can barely understand some of the instructions, so you would probably have to pay careful attention to the designer's actions in the video. Also, the videos are in need of an update because the Adobe Photoshop version being used here is not the latest one, it was Photoshop 7, I believe. |

Honestly, I have to say that this e-book doesn't really offer readers anything new, BUT the good part is, although the advice here is just plain old common sense, and not some deep dark secrets at all, people would still find this a nice and inspiring read because not everyone thinks of these things, remembers them, or knows how to employ them in real life. Everybody needs reminding once in a while.
The explanations for each tip aren't long and winded, and they simply expand a bit on each concept. A lot of the tips may be targeted towards success in online businesses and selling, but hey, you can also use many of them in life. So just consider this one a self-help piece apart from being a business guide. |

This one is a rich collection of graphics. A bit large, yes, since it takes up 26.5 MB of space, but well worth it if you're going to make full use of each one of them.
There's nothing fancy about this gallery's setup, making it easy to use. It contains instructions on how to use and download each of the images, which basically state that you must click on each image, which will load in a new window, and then you can save it to your working folder or image directory. For some reason, the new pop-up window is an Internet Explorer one, and it loads a little more slowly than it would if Firefox had opened the file. You can also choose the option to just right-click on each image in the gallery then save it to your folder, renaming it as you go, but you would have to convert it from bitmap to JPEG or GIF. With a wide selection of images, you're definitely bound to find some that will suit your purpose. |

| This is a very short e-book to read. It contains a short introduction to the file transfer process using an FTP program. The software given attention here is WS_FTP Pro, so it may seem like this is just a step by step guide to getting started with this program. It also provides screenshots of every step to help you along with the process and to check if you're doing it all correctly. It also provides a brief explanation of file permissions. I think it would be nice if it also paid careful attention to the other really popular FTP programs out there, because the interface is usually different although the principle is the same. Otherwise, it's a nice, short, and helpful guide for people who need some help in getting started using FTP programs. I would probably advise having to download this if you're able to get this same information in other websites, though, especially if they contain information on the exact software you're using. |

Admittedly, you won't be able to whip up something extremely gorgeous and jaw-droppingly perfect like the usual Flash sites you probably admire if you don't have a good artistic eye, but this gives you a pretty good start. If you're not sure how to go about this, don't fret--you can also view the online manual which walks you through the process, and besides, the interface is very easy to use anyway.

| This e-book tells you everything you need to know about the breakout Web 2.0 trends and websites that came out in the last couple of years, like social networking sites, video sites, and podcasting. It contains plenty of information on the big Web 2.0 players as well as provides links to the ones that aren't as well-known at the moment. I'd say it's a very useful product to have if you want to venture into this field and to know how other people are maximizing these developments. One thing I noticed in particular is that the author does a superb job of promoting his other works and products throughout the entire e-book as well, making sure that they are relevant to the topics being discussed. I suppose the most annoying parts here are the minor typos. Sure they're very small mistakes to make, but they're still distracting because otherwise the content is really good. |

Does it sound a little outdated for you to be bothering with it? It probably does, but it doesn't mean that there aren't any nuggets of wisdom to be found in this product. At the very least, it could give you a look at the differences in email marketing methods throughout the years.
Anyway, there's really no need to worry about that. Even for this year, this can still be a reliable source for email marketing techniques you can use for your online business. This e-book spans over 100 pages and it's packed with information, so you're in for a pretty long reading session. This doesn't just tackle email marketing alone, but it also gives you ideas on setting up your website, building your list, and marketing your products. It also includes examples of autoresponders which you can pattern yours after and lists a number of good and active resources. Overall, it's still a sound product to get. |

| Review Title: |
| Date Reviewed: May 13, 2007 |
| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
| I have never seen a plainer-looking e-book before. E-books generally have flashy and attractive covers, or at least some nice graphic on the first page which is usually still eyecatching. Not this one. The first page just has the title "Perfect handbook for imperfect dog owners." Not a sign of its self-proclaimed perfection, I must say. Moving on to the content, it covers a wide array of dog care-related topics, from diet and nutrition, playtime, health issues, grooming, and pet health insurance. It's true that it deeply explores each topic, but they could stand to be much much more well-written and should go through a thorough editing process. At some points, you might have difficulty grasping what the content is suggesting. This e-book has no introduction, no mention of the author whatsoever, no links to a website, and the e-book isn't wrapped up with a good conclusion. This is more like a list of things to consider in taking care of your dog rather than a perfect handbook. Too bad, because the title's really intriguing. |

| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
| This short e-book gives you some ideas as to which niche markets you could be targeting. It has a total of 101 ideas, all written in extremely bite-sized form. So don't expect any great, long guides about zooming in on the niche market of your dreams and how you can make money. It's just a list of ideas. It simply provides you with a numbered list of topics which concern a lot of people, like moneymaking, having sex, and being fashionable. Each item provides a brief one- or two-sentence explanation as to why these topics have great potential and then suggests possible subtopics as the niche market you could target. The e-book doesn't even contain an introduction and it promptly leaps into the list without an explanation about the contents, plus it seems like an uninspired work. Overall, the product is okay, but not life-changing, and you might want to explore better moneymaking and niche market e-books out there. It's only $10, but I would advise you to save that for something meatier. |

| The title made me extremely curious because I was wondering what secrets Microsoft Word had to offer its users. It turns out that it simply shares some techniques and features which probably some less experienced users do not know about and which more experienced users migh be overlooking. I have to admit that it does serve up some pretty useful tips, though, so even people who frequently use Microsoft Word for word processing can still benefit from a few reminders mentioned here. The author clearly enjoyed writing this guide and obviously makes use of the program a lot. The text is also accompanied by images which can help you follow the steps given. The whole package also includes a short PDF document which tells readers how to score free or discounted Microsoft software. If you already know your way extremely well around Microsoft Word's functions, I would tell you not to bother with this one, but if not, you can find this a useful business companion. |

| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
| I think this one is a very cleverly made and designed publication. The layout will really make you think of a magazine, and it also makes room for ad spaces. What would have been the pages with full-page spreads in a usual print publication contained full-page ads with links to different websites and useful products. It has a very clean look, a factor which always scores big points with me. As for the content, Lucre definitely doesn't lack in that arena either, though it could stand to include two or three more articles. This issue dealt largely with email marketing and list-building and the articles are well-written and informative. I'm definitely looking forward to yet another edition of Lucre Magazine. It would be a lot nicer though if this is a monthly publication, since at the moment it comes out only quarterly, because it's very promising and helpful. Another positive point is that the publication also accepts contributors. This is something that's definitely worth getting regularly. |

| It's kind of a tedious process to use this program. If you're going to use this, you will need to be connected to the Internet, by the way. When you open it up, you can go through the different sections by clicking on the menu in the sidebar, which will show you the section you wanted to look through. Mind you, when you click the links though, the content or the articles themselves won't appear in the window, but will instead load in your browser and a prompt to download the ZIP file of the e-book. Then you would have to unpack the file to be able to read the article. It's therefore not the most convenient toolkit, since many people would prefer to be able to view the files immediately instead of having to download each e-book manually, and there are over 20 e-books in all. A good resource nonetheless, but it really should be modified for easier use. |

| This one is written in a fairly humorous tone, which can be cute and fun but is not pulled off too nicely in some sections. Hygiene In The Kitchen isn't just about keeping your cooking and food preparation area clean, it is mainly about keeping it free from disease-causing bacteria. You can get tips here on what's the best cooking equipment to use, how to handle raw food, and other ways to make sure the way you manage your kitchen keeps it free from bacteria. I find it amusing how the bacteria mentioned here are even given some nicknames and are spoken of as if they're actual persons, so that really lends a quite funny quality. A great big bonus about this product is that it's completely free from The Cool Cook's Club. So if you have an itch to spread the word about this subject and avoiding disease, or you need to enlist help from people in your household to keep the kitchen and all cooking equipment clean, you can freely distribute it. |

It's also great for the organic gardener who is just starting out because it also contains pictures of the tools you're going to need and it also gives all the specifics for caring for each of the vegetables that you plan on planting and growing and even has an indicator at the start of each vegetable growing article which tells you what time of the year you should be sowing and harvesting your crops. It's a pretty long guide and is really meant to be used by aspiring gardeners. If you want to find a specific page by the way, all you need to do is click the reader's 'contents' button and you'll be taken to the e-book's table of contents and you can then select the topic of your choice. A great product all in all. |

The author also includes plenty of anecdotes about his own experiences in life and how he applied the principles to make his life better. It's a well-written piece and apart from being a good product to offer to customers on your website, even you yourself can benefit from what it has to say. Other than that, it also gives links to other relevant websites and products to supplement the content.

| The author of this e-book starts out by sharing her own story about the fall and the rise of her self-confidence, which really helps in establishing the content's tone and can also be very inspiring and encouraging for those people who are at the lowest point in their lives. With only eight pages, it's actually a very short read with some easy-to-follow suggestions in boosting your self-confidence. It's not a brilliant work of genius nor is it groundbreaking, but it's simple and practical, something people will want to bring out and read from time to time when they need a quick shot of positivity. The author also swears by these tips and says they've helped make her feel better about herself. It's not just a guide to improve self-confidence, though, but also how to live a life free of negativity. A very simple, easy read, something you would benefit from if you pin it to your refrigerator door or corkboard as a daily reminder. |

I immediately jumped to the conclusion that this is going to be a massive e-book completely stuffed with tips, information, and lengthy guides on how you can be a better web designer. You know, like learning how to design from scratch and all that. As it turns out, this is simply a list of the tools, sites, and other resources you can use for this purpose. It contains links to free templates, software, diagnostic tools, newsletters, and articles on website design and development. It's probably not a bad thing to have, especially since everyone will need the links provided sooner or later, and it will introduce you to new tips and programs you might not have heard of otherwise, but I wouldn't call this a 'genius guide.' I would give the creator a thumbs-up for actually going through all the recommended links and including them here, as well as for providing a good list already so people no longer have to hunt for guides themselves. |

Apparently, this is just a digital version of the older actual book which was published in 1928. I haven't read the book myself, but based on the e-book, I have to conclude that it IS a promising, inspiring, and helpful read. The best part about this e-book is that it provides a rundown of the topics contained in the complete e-book so readers immediately have an idea what it has to offer, as well as the length of each chapter. If you're thinking of purchasing the product in full, this should help you decide. Also, even though the book was written in the 1920s, a lot of the advice contained here can still be applied to everyone's life at present. Best of all, it's written in simple terms everyone can easily grasp. |

In this particular product's case, it's a really helpful way to do it because it easily allows readers to get to the meat of the matter right away. Another good point about this format is that it doesn't bother with any lengthy explanations anymore. Plus, it's also a pretty good source of information for people who are just starting out with this and simply want to know exactly what to do, sort of like a longer to-do list. This is best supplemented by other e-books which contain more detail and explore all the topics here at great length. Think of this as all the Internet marketing and selling strategy books condensed and packed into a short e-book. Again, I would just like to see an introduction to this product and content as well as a nice wrap-up at the end. |

From what I have seen of his work thus far, I've learned that all of Louis Allport's videos usually run at a very relaxed pace, which is an extremely helpful thing for those who want to take their sweet time learning and absorbing each step, plus it helps that he speaks clearly and slowly.

This is a fairly decent collection of useful and fully customizable graphics. They're not the most gorgeous and artistic graphics ever made, but they do the job pretty well. I would have liked it more if the graphics explored 12 different niche markets rather than having three samples for each of the four niche markets targeted here. The graphics are very simple, and not all too varied, unfortunately. Also, one would assume a wide selection of images here but it only provides header, footer, and background images. To call itself a graphics template collection, I would have expected other items, like buttons, banners, and icons. By the way, the package includes some bonus items, like a Web Audio installer and several other potentially useful software.
I have to say the selection falls pretty short of expectations. There are more impressive and much more massive graphics collections out there and I would only recommend this if you really just want to stock up on graphics. |

This comes with website templates you can use for various niche market websites, such as ones dealing with birds, cats, fishing, and golf. I wouldn't go as far as calling them ugly. They ARE templates after all, and it's entirely up to you, the user, to customize them according to your taste. If only the layouts didn't look too similar to each other. A little variety would have been nice, and it would have been a lot better if the creator already included the footer in the layout.
Happily, the images are already included in this template pack so you don't need to wonder where you can scrape them up if you're not graphically-inclined. Those who already like the images included but wish to modify them may be disappointed because the unflatted PSDs aren't included here.
The templates are made in pure HTML so the average user can easily edit this. Not everyone is well-versed in CSS yet, so this was a favorable move.
All in all, this is good for one just starting out with niche websites. More experienced ones will find it lacking. |

Expect a big file with this one. The ZIP file alone is 36 MB, while the unpacked version is over 60 MB. This contains fully editable PSD files of header graphics and banners containing quotations, as well as the JPEG files which can allow you to view the samples easily and even use them for your site if you like them well enough. People using these files won't have trouble duplicating the look of all the graphics as well because even the fonts used in each of them have been thoughtfully included. Even blank versions of the banners are part of the package, which I imagine would be useful if you simply want to use them in table backgrounds.
I would have to say that the images used here are good quality ones and the designs are pretty nicely made with some pretty interesting patterns as well. An interesting, well-made collection over all. |

But the first thing I noticed here, apart from the interesting title, is that it's a very nicely designed e-book. Images are inserted in each page and I think they really help in breaking the visual monotony of having to look at page after page of pure text. I love the layout and I like how the content is very well-organized. It very clearly explains some of the biggest problems that give major headaches to webmasters and programmers. I would have to say this e-book is almost perfect, because of the good content, but it still has some grammatical errors here and there.

But it also contains tips I haven't read before, such as making use of Wikipedia, Kartoo, and mindmapping methods. It's not a very long read--the entire e-book only spans 17 pages excluding the cover, but don't let this make you think that the topic was only lightly explored. Because of its length, you can expect that everything was discussed in a clear and concise manner. It also uses a specific topic example and shows you how the author was able to conduct research and come up with possible content on the topic, which serves as a useful guide for you if you already have a topic in mind. |

One of the important things to me is how much space would a program take up on my computer, so I'm going to applaud this one for being less than 1 MB.
Anyway, I am sort of having trouble with this one. Yes, it does indeed do the job of generating the budget and financial planning forms
you need. All you have to do is select the kind of form you want to have and click the 'Generate' button. A window pops up which will let you choose in which location you'll be saving the file, but when you do save it and check that same location, the form is nowhere to be seen. So it would be best to click the checkbox which says 'Launch spreadsheet program automatically,' in which case you will then be able to save the file yourself.
The forms themselves are easy to use and you don't have to do any calculating yourself because the spreadsheet automatically tallies up the amount for you. A very handy tool. |

The title kind of runs contrary to the usual word of advice that panicking never helps or solves problems, doesn't it? Which only makes it all the more intriguing. And the illustration on the cover is pretty cute as well, with the figure looking extremely panicked. The e-book itself is highlighted by the same cute illustrations, so you would think that these are pretty good visual aids to the text.
Unfortunately, that's about the only good thing I can say about this e-book. It's poorly written, with plenty of grammatical errors and misspelled words. Its only point is that panic attacks aren't physically harmful, and I wish the e-book gave more thought as to why they're not bad for our bodies. It didn't provide a lot of explanations to support the contention, it just gave examples of situations when panic attacks might occur, and even then, most of the examples aren't all that stellar or realistic. |

I wish I had access to this e-book a few years ago when I complained about a certain webhosting company's services and policies.

Apparently, they were refusing service to people who did not meet their geographical requirements and although they didn't get wind of my location and didn't send me a warning, I still complained about the discrimination.
Anyway, enough personal anecdotes. It's true that it's a rare thing for people to read the fine print and this one will encourage you to look at your webhost's Terms Of Service. It also includes most of the commonly used terms and explains all about them. The e-book clearly tells the reader how to be responsible for his or her websites and includes helpful tips and reminders at the end.

| This is probably the first Internet marketing e-book I've read that encourages people starting their online business to gather a team to work with. Most e-books only talk about one person's effort, with the occasional help of a Web designer or a ghostwriter, that sort of thing. The e-book's author does a good job of promoting her extra products and services throughout the content, with links to some of her pages and offers to provide more information via e-mail. I think some of the chapters should have been reorganized though, and the one chapter talking about how to find a niche market to penetrate or which products to sell should have been placed at the start of the book. After all, it seems more important to figure out what your products are and what your business aim is before getting started on marketing and advertising. Overall, I wouldn't say this is a comprehensive home business guide for moms alone, since it can apply to everyone else as well, but it's a useful source for quick and easy management tips. |

It's a very smart read that tackles many different aspects of saving money, and I particularly like how it also discusses investment strategies.
Eighty-one pages may seem like such a commitment and a very long read for many people, but in this case, the eighty-one pages just fly by, since it's filled with lots of useful information. Of course, it doesn't call itself a source for business, legal, and financial advice, but as a personal guide, it does its job very well.
It has the occasional typographical error, but happily, that doesn't distract from the message and the quality of the content. The introduction says it is written in layman's terms and it indeed lived up to this. |

| I've read the reviews that have been posted a couple of months ago, so I wanted to see what's up with this product. But since this has apparently been updated with a proper PDF e-book a couple of months ago, that was what I have been able to access and read, so I had no problems going through this one. Anyway, this contains some pretty enthusiastic text which can help you come up with ideas to make more money from your paid membership sites. The tips all seem pretty basic and common sense, but that's exactly why they are necessary, because these ideas don't exactly occur to everyone and most people don't think of putting them to good use. This report also says that while it is released as a free report, it doesn't mean that you should simply bypass it. I completely agree with that statement because, even with only twelve pages, it is still indeed a useful mine of information. |

| Oh man, I wish there is an easier way to navigate through the contents of this product. While the table of contents is neatly laid out at the beginning, you're going to have to click the 'return to menu' button each time you have to move on to the next section. It's not a deadly error, but it certainly doesn't make this convenient to read. 'Next' and 'previous' buttons will allow the reader to flip through its contents more easily. Some of the stuff here, like the quizzes, are best dealt with when you print them out, since then you can answer them more easily. It also has some interesting stuff in it though, like the usual tips and alternatives to smoking as well as charts that can help you track your progress during your withdrawal period. As a non-smoker, I wouldn't really know if any of these tips would help a smoker quit, but as a simple reader, I'd say this is pretty good, although some sections could still be expanded to include more helpful information. |

| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
| By being called a 'six-part course' I automatically assumed this one would consist of six hefty e-books within one e-book, but as it turns out, it's only made up of six chapters, excluding the introduction. The e-book is actually quite brief, with all of 18 pages. This e-book informs the readers on how to go beyond cold-calling as a marketing technique and explore other avenues. It specifically targets business owners and sellers who wish to use less in-your-face methods in promoting their products and services. It doesn't go into great detail about how you can grab potential buyers' and customers' attention, but it simply provides you with marketing methods and how you can keep your customers. I wouldn't call this a step-by-step guide you absolutely must follow when setting up your business and trying to promote it, but it simply gives you the basic reminders in marketing techniques. It's useful, but not something to keep long-term, in my opinion. |

If you're really interested in real estate or have been involved in it for enough time to know and understand the terminology, then this book is for you. However, if you're just a newbie getting started in this field, your eyes may glaze over due to the terms used. But the good thing is, this is written in a nice conversational way so that should help engage your interest. Another good thing about this is that each section clearly explains every step the reader needs to do and provides some good examples as well. The author also provides marketing techniques you can use for this kind of business.
I personally would have liked to see more information about the author included in the e-book itself, though, just to establish that he really has been involved in this kind of thing and that his advice is based on actual experiences.
Another note: the page after the title page is just gray. The author should look into this in case there was some important information that was meant to appear here. |

The e-book discussed the importance of using videos to pull in customers and buyers to your site and also stressed some important marketing tips. It makes for a pretty compelling argument in favor of maximizing videos in websites. I like how it also discusses the most popular videos that went around online and what factors contributed to their popularity. It's written in a simple format using simple terms and is extremely easy to grasp. Major points for being able to stress in the e-book the right way to market through videos.
It has a number of typos that need correcting, though. And although equipment such as a computer and a webcam were mentioned, I also would have personally preferred it if the author went a lot deeper into the discussion and description of the necessary equipment, just so the readers will know more about what cameras and software are the best ones to use. |

This pack consists of four e-books focusing on online marketing.
Network Marketing Survival: The term 'multi-level marketing' tends to make a lot of people suspicious, so I'm not sure how everyone will appreciate this, but this e-book is very helpful for those who want to understand more about it.
30 Maximum Conversion Rate Tips: This provides some very useful tips in making your website marketing copy catchy and attractive. A good source if you're starting out, but if you have read a number of copywriting guides and marketing tips already, you'll find that this doesn't offer anything new.
Network Marketing Pitfalls: One of the tips given here is that you don't have to drown yourself in information to get started in this field, but you're going to need to read this one before you start, because it does a good job of telling you what NOT to do in this business.
Guide To Giveaway Events: It's the first time I've heard about giveaway events, so I pored over this one pretty thoroughly. This will take you through the intricacies of giveaway events and how you can utilize them to build your list. Pretty useful resource. |

| It looks like this one was written in 2004, so some people who are new to the scene will be amazed that resale rights and other such matters have actually been around for a while now. This one just explains what resale rights are, how to choose products, why the right products are important in helping you boost sales, and how to gain a lot from marketing them. I wouldn't call this an amazingly simple Internet strategy like its title proclaims it is, though. There are easier methods to use, although it's true that this is also a simple option. Like a few other marketing e-books out there, this one also gives the impression of promoting the services and products of the website responsible for this e-book when you reach the last couple of pages. Overall, it's a good enough product to help you get started with reselling products. Just make sure to get newer resources as well. |

Hmm. This little bit of software was created to make your e-mail newsletters and websites look as though they were crafted to speak directly to the reader or visitor. There is absolutely nothing fancy about its interface and the way this program works. All you have to do is simply read the instructions and type the information you need to in order to personalize your newsletters and website. It works simply enough, can't complain about that part. I suppose this could have looked a lot sleeker and more well-designed though, with no broken images, just to look more professional.
It would have been great to know who the person is behind this product, and to find out if he or she has created other useful tools as well. This would have been a good opportunity for him or her to really promote a bunch of other products and services, and websites too. |

| This is unlike many other Internet marketing guides in circulation out there, because instead of telling you how you can make money and what strategies you need to implement in your business, it's more an inspirational tool. Instead of giving you tips on Adwords, Adsense, and other site resources, this is more like a guide on what kind of attitude you should be adopting to make your online business a great success. It's a very helpful read if you need to know if you have what it takes to go all the way with your business and if you need a bit of encouragement, too. It will really help you get your thoughts and plans in order before venturing into online marketing, plus it also helps you get rid of any misconceptions you may have about the business. More than an Internet marketing guide, you can also consider this an effective self-help e-book. |

| Now this is interesting. All you have to do is to open the HTML file and the image folders you're using and then move the sliders around which help you select the contrast, saturation, or brightness levels (among other values), or click the selections at the bottom, and you can easily adjust the colors of according to your preference. Unfortunately, it appears to convert GIF images into PNG files, so you are going to have to do tweak your images a bit to get them back in the original GIF format. The program gives you the option to process or NOT to process the images in your file, however, so if you like them the way they are, best to uncheck the 'process images' box. This looks like the best kind of product to be used by people who don't want much to be bothered by directly editing the colors of their website and want instant results. |

No doubt this is one e-book that will make you do a double-take since it promises that you can make money without selling and building lists. But does it deliver on this breathtaking promise? By the way, it's probably not the best subtitle for a product, since many people will naturally be skeptical and even suspect a scam in the making. No need to worry about it though, since this just focuses more on optimizing your websites, keywords, and Adsense ads. It has plenty of screenshots and links to resources to guide you, but apart from that, this product just seems to me to be quite average.
Also, this e-book is another example of how networking and making friends can greatly help--it promotes a lot of other people's work, products, and websites. Auto Income Secrets also comes with an extra product, entitled Building Your Own Adsense Empire, and it's a lengthy bonus item at 113 pages. It really doesn't say anything new about Adsense, especially if you've been working with it for quite a while, or about building niche websites, but it's an interesting read nonetheless. |

When this e-book says it is making FTP simple, then it really lives up to this promise. It only has a total of four pages and describe the workings of transferring files to an FTP server using a program called File Zilla. I say any readers of this extremely brief guide would find it hard to make a mistake when following its instructions because everything is already numbered neatly and the explanations are very clear.
This is not a remarkable product though because there is nothing really special or different about it, and people might think that the information it provides is available online anyway and that it isn't worth downloading anymore. There are indeed plenty of FTP guides available out there, and this product could have made itself stand out by providing comparisons of various file transfer software, included screenshots, and contained more detailed descriptions of the features of FTP programs. |

Thanks to the title 'Six Figure Secrets', one would have probably thought that this was going to be a guide on increasing personal wealth and how to be financially savvy, but it's a guide on promoting one's website in order to boost traffic, sales, and, as a result, income. The e-book does not really say HOW to accomplish a lot of the tips provided here, and simply informs the reader what to do. I have to wonder if some of the tips will make people think twice about following them, though, such as the ones that recommend having bumper stickers with one's URL printed on them and making use of giveaways like pens and mugs to promote one's website. Overall, it's not a bad guide to have because it's easy to read and you can print it out and check off the items you'd like to implement as your promotional strategies. |

Hmm, I wouldn't say this e-book really detailed an Internet success cycle, but instead simply explained the steps one should be implementing in order to run a successful online business. It's not stuffed with plenty of details, but merely gives one an overview of the process, so it would be good if readers don't just rely on this one single resource, but if they also supplemented this material with other products which focus exclusively on the different aspects of Internet marketing techniques. The author also does a fair job of promoting his other products and making sure it is appropriately mentioned throughout the e-book.
This also needs a little bit of editing and rewriting, by the way. I've also observed that, and I admit I am grasping at straws here, this e-book is guilty of unnecessarily enclosing terms in quotation marks, like the statement that Internet marketing is not "rocket science." |

This comes as a Microsoft Word document, so if the creators of this product didn't intend it to be freely edited and distributed, this can be a bit troubling. It would probably be best to convert this to PDF for easy reading.
Anyway, this is a really easy read and is written more as though it targets US-based people, so anyone outside the US--particularly in countries where obtaining a bachelor's degree is expected of a student--may be a bit baffled by some of the steps and recommendations given here. It also needs a bit of editing, so if you're really nitpicky, you can do it yourself using Microsoft Word. Bits of this e-book are written in a fairly comical way, although I'm not entirely sure how appropriate some of the statements are. Otherwise, it gives plenty of information on things people might want to know before deciding to go to college, and thankfully, it doesn't tell you that you should choose any specific school for further studies. |

Anyway, you may notice that the text is liberally sprinkled with underlined words and bold text, which I imagine was done to serve the purpose of highlighting major points and ideas. I can understand the bold text, but not all the underlined terms. It all just seems a little too much emphasis and I personally find it quite distracting. It's also funny how it recommends that one doesn't in a way that looks as if the text is screaming when some of the text in the e-book itself are written exuberantly in very large print.

A great feature of this e-book: full reprint rights!
I thought this e-book was going to provide information for the full 57 pages it has, but it turns out that a chunk of the last several pages was devoted to helpful resources (including this site!). That's not a problem though, because the entire e-book has a lot of solid information, although transcripts of Louis Allport's interviews with various Internet experts take up a lot of room as well, so in reality, the original content of this e-book doesn't use up a lot of pages.
The product refers to the biggest affiliate mistakes you could make, but it doesn't just focus on that. It also teaches you a bit about the legal documents you will need for your site, something I don't usually see in e-books on this topic. It's not a bad product, all in all, although at $97, I would personally like to see something a lot more polished and organized. |

It would have been nice if more details about copyright, legal issues, and distribution issues were provided here, just so readers and buyers would know what they are permitted to do with this.
The e-book itself is not much to look at, and is actually pretty plain to look at. But the recipes are plentiful and the instructions sound like they're pretty simple to follow. The introduction is also interesting because it also talks about the differences between jams, jellies, preserves, etc. and everything you need to know about preparing these recipes is detailed. Best of all, even people who need food low in sugar can also have great use for this. |

Now this is rather different. It was nice to see non US- or non UK-based Internet marketers for a change, just to know if Internet marketing really can be done by everyone. And based on the interviews, it really does seem to be something everyone, regardless of geographical location, can do. Here I was thinking that it may be a pretty daunting venture for non-US people, given the performance of local currencies against the dollar. Since they were able to overcome that detail, this e-book should then serve as an inspiration for the wannabe Internet marketer.
I noticed that there are some websites mentioned which appear to belong to a different person now, though, and a couple of non-working URLs. I don't know if it's just an error or the ownership of these sites have changed hands in the span of one year. In any case, this product really does merit a follow-up, and there might even be a forthcoming second version, which I'm looking forward to to see if newer Internet marketers in the region have emerged recently. |

The length may be a bit of a problem for some readers, because you're really going to need to be interested in this topic in order to get through each long chapter. Just to be clear, the 'success' referred to in the title is success in online marketing, or even your home business. This product reads like one long sales letter, complete with the attention-grabbing section titles and the text that overflows with positivity, which is probably what you need to succeed in this business. Feel free to turn to this product if you need some encouragement in your projects. |

| And by starter guide, it really means it's providing you with the basic knowledge on how to go about registering a domain, choosing a webhost, and planning your site. It's a short e-book at only ten pages, but length isn't always a sign of great quality, and while this e-book is comparatively brief, newbies who want to set up their own websites can learn a lot from it. There are many online guides to setting up websites available right now, but I have to say that this one is a pretty important product because it's really specific for those who are planning to establish their own online businesses. There are still some tips which are appropriate for the average site owner, though. Since it can be freely redistributed, this will definitely make a nice and useful product giveaway for your visitors, especially those who want to get into online marketing. |

| Here is yet another nice resource for people who are starting out with building their websites. I must say this is a lot more detailed than other website guides for newbies that I have read so far, and goes into different aspects of the process, making a lot of recommendations too. But it doesn't just give you links to tools you're going to need for this undertaking. It also guides you through the details of choosing a hosting service, setting up your email account, and what you can use to design your site.I noticed that this actively promotes the author's website hosting company throughout the e-book, and you might get the idea that while it does teach beginners about setting up a website, the product also reads like a sales letter for the company, since it mentions Teknon Media quite frequently. If a beginner will really take time to understand this guide, he or she will learn quite a lot about establishing a website. |

It's a pleasant and inspiring read, and definitely something you should print out and compile, so you could down one afternoon and really spend your time reading what it has to say. But the steps contained here shouldn't just be read in one go and then forgotten--you would really need to take a lot of time to practice and apply in your life. If this is free to distribute or even sell, which unfortunately this does not indicate, you will definitely make a lot of your customers happy and satisfied with this product. It covers a wide range of topics, from positive thinking, stress management, and developing creativity. For sure, a lot of readers working in various different fields will find this a good source of inspiration. I would have to say overall that this is quite an excellent e-book. |

| To anyone who wants to set up a business with e-books that come with resell rights, this is just the one perfect guide that you are going to need. Even people who want to get started on producing their own e-books, from content planning, writing, to designing them, can also get a lot of help from this product. It does a more than adequate job of teaching you the different aspects of resell rights. I especially like how it is written in a sensible, serious way, and is definitely not an e-book that barrages you with too much hyped-up ideas and ads, ads, ads. It is also clear that this is a product meant for reselling, but it would have been interesting to find out more about who is behind this nicely written e-book. All in all, this is a very nice product and apart from being something that is worth selling to your customers, it's also something you can certainly learn a lot from. |

First thing I noticed: this is yet another good-looking, nicely designed e-book. Sure, a great design doesn't always mean an e-book is the best one you can get out there, but it's still worth mentioning just so people know that e-books can look great and not just look like your average Microsoft Word documents converted to PDF.
Moving on, nearly everyone has quite a major love affair with Google Adwords. so this e-book definitely won't hurt you to read it if you're a beginner or even if you're a seasoned veteran. It has some pretty good ideas on how to organize your Adwords campaign, ideas on what kinds of ads will work, and what techniques you should be utilizing in order to make the most out of Adwords. The detailed instructions, the screenshots, and the writing style all work together to create a powerful Adwords resource out of this e-book. |

| I was actually expecting a lot meatier than this one, because this is definitely a topic that would draw a lot of people's attention and have them riveted to what you have to say. I don't want to criticize this work outright, since I enjoy most of the author's works, but I would have to admit that this one fell flat. There's a whole bunch of things and advice one can provide about the topic as well as precautions to take and what one can do if he or she already mistakenly responded to a fraudulent email, so I hoped this e-book had discussed these things. Instead, we get screenshots of examples of fraudulent messages (helpful) and how to distinguish them if you're using Outlook Express. But what if you're using a free Web-based email service? What exactly should you look for in the message headers and source to find out if an email isn't it? These are some things this e-book could have addressed. |

The disclaimer says this e-book is based on the first-hand knowledge and experience of the author, so I suppose that means the author himself is a self-proclaimed nice guy? If the nice, good, and shy guys out there read this, try out the tips, and discover that they do work after all, someone should think about giving the author a medal or something :)
I don't think I have ever read any relationship book/e-book targeting men so I don't know how they usually go, but I have to say this was an interesting read on the subject, and is definitely not cocky, just encouraging. This package comes with two more e-books on dating and relationships, both a couple of pretty engaging materials as well. In general, this is a sufficient source about dating, and even if it doesn't help you, they're good enough e-books for you to pore over on a slow day. |

This gives you an introduction to the idea of getting ghostwriters to produce your content for you and basically has all the information you need to know about working with one. It covers every possible aspect, from why you need one, how to find one, payment options, and how to deal with a writer who plagiarizes content. This is most definitely a very good resource for people who run an online business based on content and e-books. The e-book itself is a very good piece of work and I have no issue whatsoever with the advice contained in this one. I can't emphasize anymore about how important this resource is going to be for you and your business. It'll save you a lot of headache in the future.
This product comes with resell rights, by the way, and at the very last page, you'll find that you're entitled to a major bonus, too, so that's definitely worth checking out. |

| Was this an e-book or a sales letter? Whatever it was and its purpose, it was pretty engaging to read. It mainly promotes a product called Content Composer which helps you produce high-quality articles and their variations and lets you conduct a comparison of these articles, too. But the nice thing about this e-book or sales letter is that it doesn't repeatedly slap you in the face with encouragements to "buy! buy! buy!" Instead, it talks about the trends in producing articles for websites and how they all have changed in the span of a year. More than pushing you to buy the product, it gives you an overview of how Google indexes your articles and how you can keep your content from being considered as spam, as well as presenting some caveats when hiring ghostwriters. Definitely not a bad read, what with all the information packed into this report. |

I particularly like how it stresses that information must be properly categorized and filed. I read it a couple of times before finally being able to grasp the concept, so hopefully it will take you just one go to understand :) It's an interesting concept to put forward and I'm not sure how many people are doing this already, but if you're keen in giving this method a try, then you can really get some help from this e-book. Not a bad resource, and if you get a bit lost, it also provides examples on how you can apply this. |

If you don't register your copy of the product, you'll only have access to five of the total dirty tricks being talked about in this e-book. If you DO register, you will be able to view the rest of the tricks plus two of the other products bundled with this one. It's no use selecting the three other options in the dropdown menu if you're not registered, by the way. You really would need to provide your name and email address to activate the rest of the products. I'm a Firefox user, so I trouble activating them because I was told my cookies expired and I need to re-register. It worked when I switched to IE in the meantime.
Anyway, this is an attractively titled product, but I didn't know the tips given here are especially dirty, particularly because they seem to be commonplace anyway and they don't sound that controversial. If you've already heard of or read the tips about attracting readers and customers, you won't be shocked by what this has to offer. The bonus materials, on the other hand, are pretty interesting and could help you make your text more convincing. |

| This guide covers four areas, containing 101 tips in four different sections: money, success, health, and love. Anyway, tips like these are always the best and most fun ones to write AND read, because they're so practical and you would think they're just a matter of plain common sense until you see people going, "Oh yeah! I haevn't tried that before!" This e-book is just bursting with tips that make a lot of sense and aren't difficult to do, too. Covering these four topics is a smart move as well because you just know people are particularly interested in these subjects. All the tips are brief, which is not only necessary for a document with numerous pages, but is a good idea especially since that would only make it easier for people to wrap their minds around the concepts. It's admittedly a long e-book, but you don't have to absorb all the information right away. Highly recommended. |

| Yes, this is yet another Larry Dotson work that jumps directly into the topic and doesn't bother with long introductions and promotional text. That detail really makes his e-books stand out, apart from the brevity of each text and the bite-sized tidbits. This has a lot of good tips on how you can pull in buyers for your products using some copywriting tricks. It won't write your ads for you, but it will just help you come up with ideas to attract people. Once you've looked at all 100 tips contained here, however, you will notice that it's not just all about optimizing your advertising copy, but pretty much about making sure everything on your website, from your graphics to the colors to what kinds of offers and freebies you should be making, does a good job of advertising, so the title can be a bit misleading. Still a good resource, and can do with more detailed supplemental material. |

Darn, it would have been a lot better to just have an e-book viewer with the e-book text already loaded in it, or even a PDF document which would allow one to easily access the contents of this e-book. I don't think it's very convenient for everyone to have to be connected to the Internet to view the content.
All the ads interspersed within the content are kind of distracting, but apart from that, this is a pretty good-looking product, and the content itself is of good quality as well. After reading each article, you're going to have to go back to the table of contents to view the rest, and it probably would have been easier if they just included a 'next' and 'previous' button or link to make navigation simpler. My main gripes about this just have to do with the technical aspect, but otherwise everything is well-written and informative. |

If you're looking for some quick and easy time management tips, don't turn to this e-book, because it's best to really take your time while reading this one. The look of the e-book's pages rankles me a little bit, though, because it's all flushed to the right. It's not a problem really because it doesn't affect what this e-book is trying to say, but it simply doesn't make it look good. Interestingly, this also has a couple of chapters on work burnout and being a workaholic, which the author ties in nicely with time management. It's a very nice guide to have around, since it will really make you think harder about how you handle your duties throughout the day and think of ways to save you time and get more out of each day. |

Just a note though, although they are indeed well-written, some parts do need a bit of proofreading and rewrites, and you might also want to consider reformatting the pages or redesigning them to make them more attractive. All 10 e-books come in Microsoft Word format, making them completely editable, so make the most out of this opportunity. Obviously, you get private label rights with this package, so feel free to work with them however you please. Another unexpected bonus you will find with this is that it's actually a collection of some pretty informative articles too, so while you're reviewing or editing them, you're sure to be learning something about the business at the same time. Overall a good product to get if you seek to distribute more knowledge about Internet marketing. |

It encourages readers to actively market their products and make sure to churn out good quality ones as well. It provides enough tips, link to good sites, and caveats you should keep in mind to keep yourself in business. The author also cleverly inserts mentions of his website and other products, without seeming obnoxious, throughout the e-book. It is absolutely a wonderful and excellently written read, plus it will really push you to work hard if you want to succeed. The e-book content itself only makes up a small portion of the e-book, by the way, although it is indeed a portion packed with so much information, and much of the 84 pages of the product is devoted to equally useful and helpful bonus materials. |

I don't think a lot of e-books provide enough information on that matter.

The brief details of what you can do with this and how you can distribute the material is included in a separate text file as well, so make sure to check that out first before working with this product.
As for the content itself, it seems to me that it doesn't really offer any new and revolutionary concepts, but it does provide a nice and simple explanation of how you can make money with your blog and how you can started on setting one up and filling it with the right content. Still, although it's a nice product, I really wouldn't call it the best and you might want to consider distributing other, much more detailed e-books on the topic. |

It's still a very good resource nonetheless, with very smart tips that may still be applicable in 2007.

| With a total of one hundred website templates you can use, there's bound to be something in this collection that will catch your eye. I have to say that not all of them are attractive and top notch, but there is still a good number of fairly unique ones that could set your website apart from the rest. So it's a good thing that it's entirely customizable and the codes used aren't that complicated. I would advise you to have a basic knowledge of HTML and some talent in graphic design to really customize the templates according to your tastes. Some of the templates advise you to use a screen resolution of 800 x 600, but I looked at them with my regular resolution of 1280 x 800 and they still look fine anyway, so no problems in that arena. Great product if you're just starting out, and if you're a lot more talented in web and graphic design, you can sharpen your teeth in the templates and make them look even better. |

As with any Larry Dotson guide or product, it seems, make sure you follow this one up with a reading of some very detailed e-books since you won't want to follow each tip right away without doing lots of research first. |

| Aack, my eyes bleed with all the grammatical errors, repetitious tips, and confusing phrases in this e-book and it's too bad because many people are interested in the topic and want to learn how to protect themselves from fraudulent email. If you can wade through the mistakes and confusion however, you may find that it's a useful piece--until you find out that some sections have been lifted directly from the help section of eBay, and you may notice that the e-book, for example, recommends that spoof email victims "report suspicious activity to us" as if the author's an eBay employee. A large chunk of it is basically copy-and-paste, whether it's the text or the images. Just the fact that most of this content can be read on the relevant websites already makes this an extremely poor product, and the author should have at least indicated the URLs containing this information. It includes bits of good tips here and there but overall, you can do so much better than this product. |

| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
| Prepare to dig through the contents of this e-book. It's an introduction to some necessary PHP codes and how you can use them to create a dynamic website, so hopefully, you should at least have some grasp of HTML to be able to follow the instructions here. A warning: it's not that easy to follow and you might want to print this out first if you want to try it and work through your file step by step while you're reading it. Truly nothing fancy about this, but it's a decent enough introduction to making use if this kind of codes, plus it's a good thing that it doesn't add any other unnecessary details. Get this if you really want some help in making a dynamic website and if you want to add to your range of skills. It's not suitable for everyday web design and development though since it mainly targets marketing websites. |

| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
The package doesn't just contain the 'Smoothies For Athletes' document, but two extras called 'Amazing Weight Loss and Health Tips' and 'Summer Party Cookbook'. I like how the primary product contains a detailed author's biography, which would really reassure readers that he knows what he's talking about! The smoothies recipes are plentiful and they all sound pretty tasty, but it's also great that each smoothie's nutritional information is included in the file. Perfect for the health conscious. I'd have to disagree that these are smoothies just for athletes, because they all sound particularly healthy and yummy and even non-athletes would be sure to enjoy this.
The two extra materials are of good quality as well. The best part about this package is, not only is it free, but you're also free to distribute this. It's definitely ideal for health, sports, and fitness niche websites, or maybe even for websites about food and drinks. |

| I really didn't expect to enjoy this one and actually thought that it would be something that's a little too preachy, so I was surprised to have actually enjoyed it. This isn't going to be the kind of reading material that severely deplores and chastises young people. It's actually quite inspirational and you'll find that a lot of what it says is true. It's very thoughtful, very inspiring, and well-written. I don't know if you can do anything with this product, like sell, distribute, or resell it (its product page says it has resell rights, but that isn't mentioned in the e-book), but I still think it's worth a download, especially if you just want to read something that will definitely make you think. It's a great thing that this goes for free too, because most of the things it has to say can then be easily read by everyone. |

Take note: the bonus products take up a lot more room than the actual product. But the e-book itself is a compelling read. The author not only talks about his early experiences on the Internet, but also provides loads of tips, some for the newbies, but more seasoned website owners can also get more than a handful of great tips here, too. The author also provides loads of examples that really let you visualize what he's trying to put across. Again, they're more for the newbies, but the long-time users may find the examples fresh and interesting too. This really is a great help for people who need a quick guide on setting up websites, plus it's also a fascinating read if you want to know a little bit about the early days of the Internet from one man's point of view.
Big bonus points: master resell rights and clear details on how you can distribute this product. |

| A portion of the first tip made me cringe, quite honestly, and it was the bit that talks about getting through the "ruff periods". Yes, I really have to nitpick when it comes to spelling and grammar and there are indeed loads of errors here. But you can probably get through that easily and find out that, while this is no gem of a guide, it's more than adequate. It's basically a list of 36 promotional methods you can use for affiliate products and each item comes with a detailed explanation on how you can use and maximize it. Viral marketing is also discussed in ample detail, as well as quick guidelines on Google Adwords. Overall, I would describe this e-book as the kind of product into which all other marketing products are combined together. Its scope is massive and you won't just be learning about marketing other things. |

| This is a very easy read but is by no means brainless or worthless. It is so full of information that you really ought to do as the author suggests and print this one out for reference, and it's very long as well, so you better take the time to sit down with this. It's written in a way that readers can understand everything and really absorb each concept, plus it also has some useful visual aids to clarify some points. A lot of it is also inspirational talk which gives you a bit of a break from the lengthy sections containing marketing tips. A good idea if you find your attention wandering! The author also likes inserting stories about his own experiences in this field and he also mentions his main product quite frequently all throughout that you might sometimes suspect it's also a big sales pitch. Personally, I've seen better e-books on the topic, but I recommend this anyway because it's really quite engaging. |

| It's quite an intriguing concept to be able to advertise and make money for free, which is why this e-book can be a practical resource for Internet marketers. From time to time, it sounds like a long sales letter for the author's products, but it's a good thing they're also pretty useful and relevant to the content. It makes the whole process of promoting for free quite easy, but I personally don't know if it really is as simple and effective as the author says (it would definitely be worth a try, of course). By the way, this also contains some little tidbits to help you make effective opt-in pages and content and the author also offers up one of his products which you can take advantage of in order to make money, so that would help you see for yourself if the tips really do work. Overall, the tips sound TOO simple and easy, but hey, if you don't want to shell out a lot of cash to make more cash, then checking out this e-book is worth your time. |

| I can honestly say that this may be one of the most thoughtful guides to online marketing I've ever read. It feels more like the author is simple speaking to and explaining everything to the reader, and it does so in a nicely relaxed approach. More than focusing on making money, it also sounds more like it's making sure that you turn out to be an astute and responsible Internet marketer by making sure you have some worthy products up for grabs. It also teaches you to be more thorough in the way you run your business and to be careful about getting pumped too full of information which will make you unable to act because of all the things you've learned. On the whole, this is a very good product. It also comes with a Microsoft Word document, giving the impression that you can edit and resell or distribute it, although it would have been better if a clear license indicated this. |

| I didn't think there were any secrets to using and configuring Skype, so I had to check this one out. The pacing of all six videos may be a little too slow for some people's taste, but it gives great detail that way, and the creator of the video really takes his time explaining each step and feature. No second is waste, and even in the part in the first video wherein Skype is being downloaded, Louis Allport still has something to say and clarify. The other videos pay special attention to what you can do with Skype and explore more of its features, as well as how you can use it for your website. Before I checked this out, I had no idea it could even be used to add audio to website. As always, audio and video quality is great. The creator did a very good job on this one. |

It's still a good starter guide for people who want to figure out how to make money from their websites and it provides enough concrete examples and resources to get you going. No doubt that it does make a good case for calling the Internet a money tree. This report, although a brief one, gives you excellent ideas and options to explore in order to earn through your website. I also like how it respects the resources it identifies by really promoting them in the content. I would advise you to just ignore how old this document is and simply focus on the tips inside, because many of them are still appropriate and usable today. Truly worth your while to get and read. |

Now this is a pretty interesting interview, and you'll be sure to pick up some nuggets of knowledge here. If you have gone through a lot of resources on Internet marketing already, you can get another perspective from these two rather long audio files. The whole thing is a long interview with Dan Lok who's fielding questions from people curious about his work, ideas, copywriting, and Internet marketing in general. It's essentially a pretty detailed guide on its own and you can easily take this one everywhere for a little inspiration. Grab this one if you need tips straight from one of the experts in the field.
The interviewer mentioned a word of caution, by the way, since the interviewee's language tends to be a little strong sometimes, particularly when emphasizing a point or dismissing some misconceptions. Still, don't let that distract you from all the advice and tips you can get here. |

I like this one, since it's written very nicely. Sure it's like a compendium of many traffic boosting and money-making e-books presently in circulation, but we can't always expect extremely original and new information all the time. What matters as well is how well-crafted the content and the advice are, and I have to say this one is quite good. It's brimming with ideas to boost your website traffic and also how you can improve the content and products you have to offer your visitors. It also promises to share a couple of unconventional traffic-exploding tactics, which don't sound all that unconventional to me, having read about them in much greater detail in other e-books. This probably won't compare if you hold it up next to other e-books jampacked with information on specific topics, but nonetheless, it's still a good read.
Big bonus points: full distribution rights and all the materials you need to make this happen. |

This is written in a practical, no-nonsense way and fully explains how you can use products with resale/resell rights to make money. The title makes it sound as if you'll be earning buckets and buckets of cash. It's a reasonably decent guide, though nothing earth-shaking, but it gives you help with much more than the basics. I like how it's basically the e-book containing everything you need to know to be well-acquainted with resale rights, plus it's simple enough to follow. Plenty of guidelines here as well on how you can pick a high quality product and what you should be looking for so you won't be reselling some junk products. Another good thing about this is it provides you some easy ideas on how you can CREATE your own products for reselling, though I think it should've gone into that even further.
This product also comes with resale rights, so you might want to take advantage of that. |

People who have been using and maximizing Adsense for a long time can freely give this one a miss because it's definitely not for those who want to tap this service even further. It's divided into several lessons that take you through the details of Google Adsense, but it's not an arduous process, given that it is only made up of twelve pages. Beginners can pick up a lot from the content of this e-book, from how to apply for an Adsense account, choosing a look for each ad, and testing them in different places throughout a website. Overall, this is very good for newbies or even those who aren't really into setting up and running website or blogs, but just want to know what all the fuss about Google Adsense is. |

This is a pretty nice product. It gives a step-by-step guide to getting started with Blogger, complete with screenshots for each step and explanations of each tool and feature you can find on the interface. It also gives you ideas on different possibilities and options for configuring your Blogger account. However, since this e-book was published, Blogger has undergone a number of significant changes, although this still contains some relevant information. Naturally, it lacks reference to the recent updates and a good update is in order.
This would probably be most beneficial to newbies who want to know more about blogging. This e-book probably would be a lot better if it also included answers to common questions as well as solutions to problems that normally pop up with Blogger, and maybe even some template guidelines and customization, as well as useful links. Overall, not the most advanced resource, but has its merits. |

It provides some very thorough guidelines on how you can write and release some good classified ads for your advertising blitz, and it's quite unique because classifieds aren't usually the recommended tactic for Internet marketers. It's a very helpful read that tackles every possible aspect of the subject and makes recommendations as to the most effective way to reach your potential customers. Of course, it doesn't just provide help for Internet marketing websites, but for businesses in general, even offline ones. Useful to have and worth your time and money.

I would have to say that this one best targets the more intermediate Internet marketers or website owners, since newbies probably wouldn't have a chance yet to plumb these options.

Hmm, I'm sort of confused. Why are there two versions of the same PDF document in this pack? As far as I can tell, there aren't any differences in their content and topic. Anyway, this is nothing juicy and scandalous, but it just seems like a quick and easy fix to get more money from eBay. It's highly likely that a lot of people don't know about it yet, which makes it convenient for you to exploit this. I haven't tried it myself because I get a bit nervous about these things and hope I won't get caught, and that it really is a legal move. It also includes another bonus product which seems a lot riskier than the suggestion in the primary e-book.
All in all, I'm not really sure that this one actually merited an e-book to begin with, even if it's just a short one. Best to turn your attention to other products related to eBay, in my opinion. |

| A good solid e-book. I have to say this about the Louis Allport products I've seen so far--they sure are pretty extensive. Secure private areas of a website are always important, and if you haven't thought about that yet, this can get you started. Screenshots of each step are provided, so it's practically guaranteed that you won't get lost and confused while following the instructions. The author provides enough information about himself and his experiences to be able to defend his knowledge about the topic. Anyway, at first glance, the tips may look a little complicated, but the screenshots and the clear explanations will put things right for you. Plus, another good point about this e-book is that it is really meant for the online business owner/marketer on a budget. This e-book is a great help for those who want a simple and affordable (free, even) way to set up secure exclusive member areas. |

Add this to your collection of Internet marketing e-books. This will make very good supplementary material because it takes your marketing and selling know-how a great step further. Mind you, you need to spend quite a lot of time going over the material because both products contain a large number of pages (for e-books, that is). It's best to study this over the course of several days because it will be hard to completely absorb everything all in one go. |

| Webinars are pretty big nowadays and should be done right for the most impact. This e-book is definitely for everyone who wants to know the basics of planning and setting up a teleseminar or a webinar. You'll find in it enough information to make sure that everything goes smoothly and that you have all the tools and equipment you need. If you need some help in fleshing out your plans, it also provides links to resources and tools you can use to make it happen. I also particularly like the neat format of the content as well as the simple way it is written, because it thoroughly explains the procedure and helps you out with every single detail. Frankly, I can't imagine what other information this e-book may have left out. This product is a must-have for people who have to know the secrets behind a successful teleseminar/webinar. Highly recommended. |

| If you're stuck for color schemes to use for your website, you may hope to find a nice little helper in this one. Color Slider is pretty easy to install, although for a while I had absolutely no idea how this product works. It could just be me, but it's not a very user-friendly interface, and you would definitely be wondering what's going on with all the color swatches on top. From what I can see, the first color is the main color and two that follow are its other hues. It's a bit hard to explain. It also has a number of preset palettes already and features an Export action which I quite honestly can't figure out how to work. It's easy enough to move the slider until you spot your desired color scheme, but this product's interface could have been fixed up more and made to be less confusing. |

| For anyone who wants to start out with affiliate marketing, this is a good guide for you to pick up and start with. It's an email course as well, but it also works nicely as a resource e-book. Apart from simply explaining what affiliate marketing is, how it works, its ups and downs, and how it can earn you boatloads of cash, it also teaches you how to protect your links and your commissions. It also contains some extra tools and links which can definitely help you out. Get this e-book first if you're thinking about being an online affiliate and take the advice to heart to keep you on your toes. It would be interesting to see an updated edition of this e-book just to know more about any changes in affiliate programs this year. I also noticed that the author was heavily pushing his Affiliate Enhancer product after each chapter, by the way. |

| It looks like Liz Tomey came out with a very substantial guide on the topic with this e-book. It's quite long AND very detailed, and it will help you make up your mind about building your very own home theater system. It really gets into every possible aspect you should consider when choosing your equipment and setting it up. Each part of the e-book is neatly divided into appropriate chapters and makes reading easier. It takes you through the ins and outs of the process, and you would really need to read this thoroughly before making any decision. It seems to me like this e-book is just as good a guide as any that you could read in electronics magazines dealing with the same topic. All in all, it's a good resource and people looking to set up their own systems can get a lot of help from this one. |

| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
| This introduces a pretty unique concept--to me, at least--which is buying already-established websites on eBay. It arms the reader with a lot of helpful information on how to spot a good website, how to do research on its background, and how to spot fraudulent listings. You can also get an idea how much money you can expect to shell out during the bidding, so this e-book prepares you for the process. I like how this doesn't promise to be the ultimate guide to the topic, but as it already is, it's already pretty detailed and adequate. You definitely don't need to be an eBay whiz to understand what's being discussed here, though of course an understanding of the process is helpful. If you're looking to get started on making money in this manner, this is a very good guide for you to download. Expect to get much more than the basics here. Overall, this is quite excellent and highly recommended. |

If you have a niche website dealing with food and recipes, look into adding this e-book to your list of products up for sale or even as your site's content. The recipes are numerous and appetizing, but I have to say that the PDF file isn't very attractive and is in serious need of formatting or redesigning, hence the Word document. Buff this up a little, fix the measurements (for example, some recipes call for "1 T of salt"--what is that, one teaspoon? one tablespoon? one ton? Or even the recipe that requires "6 c of spinach") and you have a pretty good product on your hands.
The entire package consists of the PDF file, the thankfully editable Microsoft Word document, as well as HTML file and the images you need for the product's minisite. I'm just looking for the licensing information for this product so you can know exactly how ou can use and distribute this product. |

| You would think this e-book will contain pages and pages of tips on how you can get people to buy your products and what marketing tactics you should be using to get more cash in your pocket and your knowledge out into the world, but no, it doesn't. It's really more of a self-help guide, something that should keep you encouraged and help you stay focused. This teaches you more about the qualities you need to succeed as an Internet marketer, as well as some reminders in case you forget what your site or business is really all about. The author's pretty transparent as well, and writes in an interesting tone, so this one is definitely not a boring thing to read. Highly recommended. Don't miss out on this product because you don't just need moneymaking tips or site-building advice. You also need to develop yourself to succeed in the business. |

This e-book is truly a perfect guide for beginners. This isn't a very long guide and it won't help you through all the intricacies of making the perfect site to use with Google Adsense, but it contains enough information to get you started. Top-notch information and advice, and following them would be a good move for your website and your bank account. Owners of sites that are just starting out or even established websites that are only just considering making use of Google Adsense can pick up a lot from this. Everything is well-written and clearly explained, so you really won't lose your way with this product.
It comes with full resale and giveaway rights, and you will definitely have a great product on your hands with this one which your customers will benefit AND learn from. You won't need to worry about the quality of the item you're selling with this. |

| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
It's a good introduction to online auctions, the online payment process, and other related topics, so that coupled with the tips on working with the website to make money through auctions makes this a fairly good resource. However, it should be noted that this is more newbie-oriented, and if you're already a seasoned Ebay user just looking for more ways to make money, you can freely skip this product. The title might be a bit attractive, but you can bet that it's not the ultimate guide to earning from your Ebay auctions. Definitely for beginners, and no, it doesn't reveal any secrets or loopholes you can take advantage of.
The e-book also contains some useful bonuses as well and provides a quick link in the first pages to help you resell the product. Consider using this one if you have a website that's all about home-based businesses or making money online. |

The layout caught my eye right away. It's very light and clean-looking, very refreshing to the eyes. This product will give you everything you wanted to know about blogging, from getting started to setting up your blog to promoting it to blog URL submitters. It also talks about business blogging at length.
Unfortunately, that's about as far as it goes, when it comes to its stellar points. If you're expecting some really in-depth and serious explanations about making money with blogs, this is not the product you're looking for. This e-book has to do more with developing and launching a blog rather than optimizing its keywords and content to improve your earnings, so I say the title at least needs to be changed. As a resource for new bloggers, this isn't half bad at all. If you want to learn more about how to rake in money with your blog, it's best to look elsewhere. |

| Reviewer: Lynn Lopez |
Strangely, each pages of this e-book loads a little too slowly for my liking, so that's an annoying minus about this product. You also need to be connected to the Internet for this to work, which makes it different from most other e-books that come with an e-book viewing application--and in this case 'different' is not good. Something like this should also be available for offline reading. Navigating through it can also be a bit tedious, since clicking the back or forward buttons don't appear to have any effect, so you have to go back to the table of contents to see the rest of the e-book.
If you need to learn everything there is to know about RSS or Really Simple Syndication, this product should help you go on your way. The contents are more than adequate, it's just the software's navigation process that gives one a big headache. |

With over 100 pages of recipes, you can be sure that this contains more than a handful of good ones. Don't forget to polish up its appearance first prior to repackaging and reselling, because at its current state, it looks a little too plain and unattractive.
The package is all right if you consider that this contains resell rights and all the materials you need to be able to resell it, and the recipes' instructions are clearly written, but nowadays, people will be looking for a lot more than a straightforward list. Most customers will probably want a little more information on nutrition facts, healthier ingredient options, or some short introduction to the merits of deep fried foods. It's therefore up to you to make this product a lot more substantial. But if you don't mind just having a recipe database, then by all means, you can pick this one up. |

First of all, I have to comment on the appearance of this e-book. It's just a little too busy for my eyes. It's already very text-heavy, but the tiled background doesn't help matters and makes it a little too painful to read. Some of the highlighting colors throughout the text can also cause a bit of a headache when read against the background, too. Colors and layout need some serious rethinking to make it easier for people to read the product.
As for the content, I have nothing negative to say about that part. It explains all the terms you're bound to encounter as well as giving you a step-by-step guide on how you can get started in this trade. It's also a little long, though, and it would've been better to have chopped this up into several chapters rather than having to scroll back up and down if you need to check out a certain chapter. I tried the navigation buttons as well and only a few of them work, really. Overall, the content is pretty good, it just needs to be a lot easier for readers to navigate. |

| The four videos contained in this product are happily not unnecessarily long, so if you have a slower Internet connection or simply don't have the time to sit through a lengthy discussion, this is just right for you, though this is also exhaustive and doesn't just gloss over the information. The speaker delivers his lecture clearly and at a relaxed pace and the video quality is good, so you're sure to be able to follow the lesson easily. As for the lectures themselves, I can't find a thing to complain about them. The creator also speaks very clearly and is pretty good at explaining things and giving examples. The video itself seems to be made up of PowerPoint slides which are all well-designed and detailed enough to show exactly what the creator is talking about, and providing good examples too. This is definitely a necessary tool for you to get if you want to explore more options in building your list. |

This product is meant to be repackaged and resold, so it contains all the materials you need: the Microsoft Word file, the minisite page, the images, and even the keywords you can use to optimize your product and the site! Very nice touch. The licensing information is also very emphatic in the terms that govern your use of the product, so you're pretty much free to edit and distribute it at will.
As for the content itself, I'm not entirely sure how medically accurate and factual some of the sections are, especially the ones talking about herbal remedies. It would've been a better idea if it contained footnotes referencing the stories just to make readers feel confident that it's not just a fabrication. Happily, it does contain the relevant links, but more detailed descriptions of their healing properties would be nice. The verdict: decent enough, so download and distribute away, and you might want to add some disclaimers as well as to the truth of some of the herbal remedy stories. |

| I suppose I was looking for more of a detailed introduction to PHP than this one, but if you just want to insert quick codes that work right away and can't be bothered to learn the nitty-gritty, then I suppose this one is all right. I'm not a hardcore programmer at all, and sometimes I just want to use some codes that are easy to put up and configure. I tried them out myself on my own site and they work just fine, thankfully. I must admit however that I was initially worried that the codes would require me to set up a new database or that they're more complicated than they look at first glance, but thankfully, that is not the case at all. It's a very handy little helper for people who want to put some extra-special tweaks in their website, and if you're one of them, you can freely pick up this e-book and learn some cool tricks. |

I thought this one had some pretty unusual words of advice. Ordinarily, many e-book guides on starting and running an online business recommend that you do it all by yourself (mostly) so you won't have to answer to anyone and your success is yours alone. Not this particular product. As a matter of fact, it even suggests that you start it up with several other people as a proper corporation.
This e-book doesn't just take you through the intricacies of setting up a website, but also educates you a bit on the ins and outs of establishing a real business. If you need some help with the business side of things, this can help set you straight. The explanations are simple and very easy to follow, plus it has plenty of useful tips on making your business run perfectly and how your website can be one of the most outstanding. |

It's a decent enough product, and I daresay it makes plenty of sense. I just wish it was written in a much better way. The typos are kind of distracting. It's a self-help guide and it contains plenty of reminders for people to learn how to attract positivity to themselves.
I like the instruction inserted here recommending that the readers print this out. It's not especially long, but something like this product which has major lessons to impart, and which are instructional guides to living well, is harder to follow on a screen.
It's a pretty relaxed e-book and you can just imagine the author trying to speak to you in a calm, soothing, encouraging manner. Lots of good advice all around, and also contains some useful bonus lessons to keep in mind. Take a break from your pursuit of your personal fortune and take the time to check out this e-book. |

| This was a quick and easy read. It's definitely perfect for people who want to make a bigger splash in online auctions. Basically, this e-book recommends that you offer something new, special, and most importantly, free to the people who are bidding in your auction, just to get them really interested in you, your product, and your website. Basically, this reminds readers that people love freebies and will be a lot more likely to "bite". It's an interesting tactic I never realized could be done. I suppose it does indeed drum up interest in your auction, especially if you're really offering some good quality products. Just make sure you know how to pick them and check that your bidders won't be getting any duds. Overall, it's very interesting and worth a read. Grab this if you need your auction page to have a little extra oomph. |

| You can view this product in an easy-to-navigate e-book viewing application, and it's a wonderful thing that all the sections are arranged very well. It answers all the common questions people ask when talking about resale rights and it does so very candidly. It also does a fine job of promoting certain products and services, with links or graphics at the end of each chapter. You could even benefit from those links, because they are sure to contain more products and tools that can offer you a lot of help. It would be best for you to really absorb the contents by reading and reviewing them more than once, even more than twice. It has plenty of lessons you should be keeping in mind especially if you're serious about breaking into the world of resale rights. A great product to add to your library of information on resale rights, and might even trump some of them. |
