Google Rankings Case Study – Getting 44 #1 Google Rankings in Two Weeks

"I tried to learn .NET by taking boot camp classes that cost me $6,000. After taking the classes, I discovered tons of free (and very cheap) videos on the internet created by experts in the field. I found the videos to be much better than the classrooms. The videos were presented by Microsoft presenters that knew the material backwards and forwards, and they were much cheaper and better than the classroom teachers. I have spent the last three years organizing and hunting down the videos for my own use and decided that all could benefit by sharing what I found." - Wade Harvey

I AM VERY EXCITED ABOUT THIS AMAZING NEW DISCOVERY
Over 40,000 Top-Notch Video Tutorials (or 3,452 hours) on Lynda.com
I had stumbled across Lynda.com many times before, but never stopped to try it out. I recently took the plunge and started using Lynda.com to help me improve my javascript skills (See Javascript Essential Training 2007 by Dori Smith). It has revolutionized my understanding of the language! I love the fact that the exercise files allow you to follow along in real time with what the instructor is saying. Learning by doing is an extremely powerful technique. I have to give the site an A+ for both quality and content.

I am planning on using Lynda Videos to help me improve in:

1. HTML
2. CSS
3. Classic ASP
4. .NET (included in ASP section)
5. AJAX
6. Silverlight (in Microsoft Section)
7. SharePoint (in Microsoft Section)
8. Web Design
9. Blogging
10. SEO
11. and much more

You can learn more about Lynda.com by watching the 5-minute video at About Lynda.com. If you are only focusing on .NET, you are missing out on the "big picture" and on many of the underlying fundamentals! To be an Ideal Programmer, you need to have the largest knowledge base possible.

Looking for premium .NET Training Videos? The best premium .NET Videos that I have found are at Learn Visual Studio. Those videos are only about 50 cents per hour, as compared to $25 per hour that other sites charge!

LearnVisualStudio is currently having a 25% off sale ($50 savings) and giving away a free membership to TrainingSpot ($60 value) when LVS Lifetime Membership is purchased.

  
  

Limited Time Offer: Free Lifetime Membership to Progress Monitor ($24.95 value) when you purchase any membership at Learn Visual Studio, Lynda Videos or any hosting account at DiscountASP - just forward order confirmation to harvey007@sbcglobal.net

I have been working late nights for the last two weeks. Why? I have been trying out a two week trial of Traffic Geyser software that only cost me one dollar – click on the link earlier in this sentence to take advantage of that offer. TrafficGeyser Gold membership allows one to publish up to 100 videos to 35 video hosting sites each month. I did a case study on Google Rankings with my two week trial. I have several web sites that I use to sell photographs of city skylines, and that is where I got the products to promote. This post describes the tools that I used and the results.

All the software that I used either came installed on my computer or it was free. I used CamStudio to create the videos. CamStudio is open source and totally free. It works like Camtasia, but does not cost the $300 that Camtasia does. I used Windows Movie Maker to edit the videos. Windows Movie Maker comes free of charge with Windows XP. I used Microsoft Power Point to give an overview of what the video was about and then did a screen-capture of the powerpoint slide with CamStudio. I used the free software that comes with Kodak share to create slide shows of photos I was trying to sell. Then, I did a screen capture of the slide show with CamStudio. Finally, I created the final credits with Windows Movie Maker, and used the description fields for each video to point back to money pages on web sites where the photos are.

The video below summarizes the tools and the results of this project.
