Complete Guide to Traffic
I just had a chance to get a first glimpse on the Complete Guide to Traffic by Paul Smithson. The guru really tries to help you get the maximum benefits from the training material by providing different learning methods:
- Narrated flash content
- 28 mini-tests at the end of each module
- massive resource lists (everything from software to book recommendations)
- homework for each module with practical hands-on exercises
Let's take a look at the course to see how it all fits together. The training website comprises of thirty learning modules. I managed to take a look at the video marketing module. This module alone is over two and a half hours long. There are lots and lots of sections and sub-sections on stuff like: promoting videos, re-using video content, reusable content, finding your audience, what equipment you need, viral videos, working with meta data, recording and editing tips, video bookmarking, viral tips...and this is only the beginning. Every tutorial is narrated by professional actors.
And at the end of every module there's a quiz and a homeeork PDF workbook to really make everything you've learned stick.
In addition to the Complete Guide to Traffic learning material all of the trainees will get a free copy of a report on the results of the biggest traffic survey conducted ever. Smithson asked thousands of web marketers in collaboration with the University of Bradford. The report is 360 pages long and will later be sold separately for 97 dollars.
The second additional product: The Guru Guide. 10 hour long audio interviews with top internet marketing gurus on how they became successful plus six ebooks. This will really help you understand how to generate traffic.
There will also be a shorter free version of the traffic survey report out there for everyone. I will let you know when it will be released.
