Sonic Producer Review – Pros and Cons

Sonic Producer, a very complete musical sequencer, has been receiving a lot of attention lately. A few of the guys at work bought it and they’ve gone kinda crazy about it for some reason. So I figured I should give it a try to see what’s so incredible about it. I Sonic Producer a scam? Is it Good ? Is it worth buying? Let’s find out.

When you think of a digital musical tool, some people usually associate that to a “digital DJ console”. The problem we had for a long time is that most similar tools were not giving the expected results. But what about Sonic Producer? In which aspect is Sonic Producer any different than the other similar tools on the market ?

First off, I know everyone claims that their product is the most “user-friendly” but from my Sonic Producer review or perspective, I have to admit that I am shockingly surprised by how stupid and straightforward this software is. By a simple click, you get to the sounds library inside the Sonic Producer software, and you can choose whatever beat you need for that specific track. Set your tunes, copy and paste a certain “string” if necessary, then rinse and repeat. Okay, reading this sounded like a lot of work to you ?

And this soundtrack took him less than 5 minutes to produce! Now, don’t you worry about the learning curve for Sonic Producer. There are tutorials included, explaining every aspect of the software. You also get to have video tutorials, which are always easier to understand.

You will also learn how to produce music using the software, a keyboard, ProTools, Logic and more.

After making a beat, a simple click and your file gets converted to a MP3 file.

Sonic Producer Review of Members Area

When you log into the “Sonic Producer Members Only Area”, you have access to many special features and bonuses that the non-members are missing onto. The most important one probably being all the extra beats and intrumentals that you can download and import into your Sonic Producer software. They even put up contests quite frequently to see which of the users can produce the best beat! Just in case you are wondering: Yes! There are money prizes.

Sonic Producer Review of The Interface

As I’ve mentioned earlier, the interface of this software is really simple to use. Your virtual keyboard, combined with the 16 track sequencer and equalizer settings are all so intuitive that this software could be used by anyone from 7 to 77. I still suggest that you take a few minutes to go through the video tutorials of Sonic Producer, but even if you just want to learn from scratch, I can guarantee that you won’t have any problem adapting to Sonic Producer!

Let’s just say that your first beat, which might also be the longest to produce, should take you anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes depending on your computer skills. That is the 1st beat. You can almost cut your time in half after 4 or 5 done.

The sound library alone makes this software worth the price, in my opinion. And I insist on this point, but the simplicity of the software really is astonishing! It’s easy enough for amateurs like myself who want to create cool stuff, but also versatile and efficient enough to please the more experienced musicians and producers. So no matter which style of music you are into, this software will easily adapts to your needs.

Sonic Producer Review of Computer Requirements

This software will work on both PC and Mac computers. Internet access is required for all the updates and download materials, but that shouldn’t be an issue for you. Believe it or not, there is even a 24/7 customer service agent available for you if you end up having any questions or need assistance with your software.

I also really liked the fact that you will download Sonic Producer only seconds after the purchase is made, which is far more accommodating than waiting the usual 1 to 2 weeks of shipping delays.

Overall Sonic Producer Review

Well folks, here is what I think.
Do you associate any one of the following words with any of your personnal hobbies :

Singing
Composing
Dancing
Playing Music Instrument
DJ
Partying
Whistling
Creative Side
Artistic Side

If you don’t relate to any of those words, please, don’t waste your money. For that specific situation, I’d simply say: “Don’t Buy Sonic Producer!”

But if you do relate to these words, well, you will definitely enjoy it!
If you are unexperienced, like I am, it is very “cool” to see how easy it is even for us “newbies” to create pretty decent tracks and compose our own beats!

And if you are more of an experienced person for musical sequencer and softwares, I can certainly guarantee that you will feel that little “sparkle-of-I-feel-good” when you give this a try ! hehe

Cataclysm Scalper Gold System Review

Who doesn’t like to make a few hundred thousands of gold per day ?

Anyone who has ever played the game World of Warcraft knows that the one and only things that you just can’t get enough of is gold. And there is a very legitimate reason for this. You’ve probably heard this before “Money equals Power”. Well, the more money you have, the more powerful you can be. Same applies in Warcraft. But the problem with gold is that in order to get more, you need to invest more time.. as in A LOT of time! You can make gold by harvesting, by selling, buying and with public auction home strategies, to name only these ways to make gold.

In my Cataclysm Scalper Gold System review, I will tell you if the offered technique can really help you generate money significantly faster. I will also try to explain how the system operates.

Because making gold into World of Warcraft is really a vital ressource, there are already tons of other products teaching you “miracle” solutions to generate gold until the end of time!! Those products go from $20 to $150. But some people have seen their accounts get banned after using many of those methods. Why is that? Without entering into the details too much, just think about that : WoW is the one game that appears the most often in the top 10 best games of all time online.. What does that mean to you ? Well, it means that people are ready to do pretty much anything to be better that the “lot”. Is the Cataclysm Scalper Gold System like any of those products? I can guarantee you that your account won’t EVER be banned following this system.

So What’s the Cataclysm Scalper Gold System ? 

This manual on gold leveraging systems was written by Jonathan Smith. He has concentrated 6 years of experience testing all the various ways to generate gold as fast as possible. Calling himself a pretty “intense” player, what he has achieved with the Cataclysm Scalper Gold System will literally blow your mind! And I know many of you have wasted money on methods that finally didn’t work with YOUR type of player. This won’t be an issue with the Cataclysm Scalper method.

You will know exactly where to search for huge “stach” of gold. You will get precise directions for public auction houses. Where to get free merchandise. How to boost your gold stocks by using his “secret method” to your benefit. And once again, do not worry about getting your account suspended or banned. This won’t ever happen here. But you will STILL rake in the gold!

If you concentrate your efforts applying what you will learn from these techniques, you could be “COMPLETELY LOADED”, if I may say, within only a few days. What could usually take a few weeks of intense playing to achieve.

Cataclysm Scalper Gold System Info

Jonathan Smith has, in my opinion, delivered a good product with this one. I might not be a win-the-milion-overnight-lottery-kind-of-thing, but believe me, it is not very close! It is very efficient, it is simple, it works fast, it’s safe, and most of all, it is a HUGE time saver.

I have to add that Jonathan is also of a very great help if you need anything.

So yes, I DO recommend the Cataclysm Scalper Gold System to any of you looking for system to make gold fast, but these systems are also going to work for ever. They are not a quick hype solution. This is why I don’t have any problem putting my name besides this products and suggesting it! (..unlike many other WoW products, unfortunately.) Plus you even get complete video tutorials, making it even easier to learn and understand.

So basically, this product offers simple to apply, simple to follow techniques that are going to help you generate gold in a really short period of time. These techniques are also “legal” and they comply to WoW’s policies. The author of the product gives a good support. It is well written, plus you get video instructions. Well, those are a few of the reasons why I invite you to watch this Cataclysm Scalper Gold System video.

Hey there,

I’ve been awfully neglecting this website, and I am finally putting it back on track. It was first intended to be an internet marketing blog, but I will transform this website into a review source for various products.

Of course, I will still be reviewing marketing products, but I will also review physical products of every kind.

My goal with this website is to be one of the few website giving impartial reviews and advices. This means that I will also have some posts on my website where I discourage you from purchasing a certain product. I will help you balance the pros and cons into each reviews, saving you time and money.

As always, if you want to share opinions,, suggestions or also if you have a question, just send me a buzz at ask@jeffreymireault.com.

Let get this rusty engine back on the road now..

More after the break.

I have been trying many article rewriters over the last few months.
Unfortunately, I have to admit that most of them are the same kind of “article spinner”, similar to what JetSpinner is offering.

If you are not familiar with what is an article rewriter :

Article rewriter softwares are usually quite easy to use.
What you need to do is write an article and add a few variables to it.
The system works somewhat like this :

Here is how you can make money online
would become
{Here is how/Let me show you how/Here are methods on how}
This will create 3 different sentences with 3 different “first part of sentence”.

But I personally find it very long to actually insert all those brackets, so I’m not such a big fan of this type or article rewriter.

BUT

I kept searching the Internet for various software with similar properties.. and I ended up finding something very interesting

It is called “Content Boss“.

Content boss is a server hosted article spinner script.

I had been waiting a long time to see this coming, and honestly, I won’t ever switch to another article rewriter.. Ever !

Content boss has a “smart” database if I can say..
Since it has such a big database of keywords, it can easily transform a sentence into another within only a few seconds.
But the great thing with the “smart database” is that the more people using it, the better the sentences will look like and the bigger the database will become.

Many tools can do that; rewrite an article.
The difference with Content Boss is the fact that the rewritten articles are EASILY readable. They don’t look like automated/sketchy texts.

The way I do this is I take one of my own articles, copy it into content boss, click ONE button, and it gives me the new version.

All I have to do is re-read it, make sure there are no grammar mistakes, and it’s good to go.

Doing this usually takes between 2 and 5 minutes, and you’ve got yourself a new article.

Now, of course, if you feel like gambling a little, you can try and take articles directly from EzineArticles.

Since you don’t want to be accused of copyright infringement, you will have to make sure the new version of the article is 100% copyscape passed.

I use http://www.duplichecker.com to check and make sure my articles are unique.

But honestly, I don’t think there are any other article rewriter that are HALF as good as Content Boss.

Usually the admission price for Content Boss members is $67/month.

But since I know the creator from a few online forums, I did get a HUGE discount for my visitors…

..OVER $40 of discount.. EVERY month !

Curious about it ?
Go take a look; You’ll also see a few examples of rewritten texts!

Content Boss

Hope you like it !

Have you heard about Google Insight ?
Maybe once or twice ?

Did you take the time to see how it goes and how it could help you with your Internet business ?

Well, this is what we’ll be doing today.
I’ll cover a few points about Google Insight, and show you how you can find profitable PPC campaigns AND low competition niches !

Here is a screenshot of Google Insights

Now, I know the page seems a bit overloaded because of the picture, but I really wanted to show you a real image of what Insights can do.

1: Search Terms
Insert your keyword here

2: Last 90 Days
Okay, here you can choose from a year ago, 90 days ago, 1 month ago, 1 week ago, and specific years too.
Most of the time, I recommend using the 90 days ago. You want the ACTUAL tendency for your specific keyword. But it can also be used to see seasonal patterns, depending on your product.

3: Worldwide
I chose worldwide to show you how you can find good PPC keywords into a country you first would have not have thought about.
But you can switch this to any country you like if it can help you be more targeted.

4: Time line
Since I chose to see the tendency for the last 90 days, this is what is shows into this graph.
But as I mentionned before, if you want to see a seasonal tendency for your keyword, which is very important in many niches, you could see visually see what are the proper timings of the year to highly promote your product.

5: Regional Interest
Now here is where it gets a little bit more interesting.
This shows you where the specific keywords has been used the most.
Since I chose “Worldwide”, they give me a list of different countries where this keyword has been popular over the last 3 months.
If you would have chosen a country like the United States for example, the regional interests would have been divided into states.
Once again, big opportunity there.
You can target your clicks to only a few states, resulting into a better ROI. (return on investment)

What I like here though is that Google told us that there countries were typing this keyword a lot.

We already know what are the countries were advertisers spend the most money on :
- USA
- Canada
- Australia
- United Kingdom
- Ireland
- New Zeland

Why these countries ? .. the ones with the highest % of english speaking population.

But if you take a look at the image above, you can see that for the term “Guitar Lessons”, the top spot is from “South Africa” and the 3rd one is from the “Phillipines”.

Chances are that those two countries are not going to have that much competition on adwords.

Let’s take a look :

Meaning that you could appear on the first page for 10 to 15 cents per click. Not bad eh ?

And believe me; it took me about 15 seconds to find this.
You can dig deeper and easily find tons of highly searched keywords with next to no competition !

Top Searches :
You can use this to either dig deeper and find keywords that could have a low CPC on adwords..
OR
You can search on google to see how much competition you’ve got for these.
To do so, all you have to do is add QUOTES (“”) before and after your keyword on google.. like this “Online Guitar Course”
hmm.. only 15,000 pages competing with this specific keyword in it.

You could easily rank on first page with a blog, a squidoo lens or a hub page too !

7: Rising Searches
Now everything I’ve said before can be applied to these few keywords listed there.
You can go and try to find HOT keywords that have no competition on Google.
You can go and build sites to get SEO juice for your targeted keywords.
You could even buy a domain name related to a rising search, build a small site about it and flip it for profit ! (I’ve done that)

If it’s HOT, you’ll have no problem selling it.

So yeah.. I know this was a long post, but I sincerely think that if you’re not already using this as a MAIN tool, you should get started.

Google Insights is a very underestimated tool for your Online business!

Let me know how YOU are using Google Insights !
Thanks

& Keep Smiling

First, what does “cloaking” mean ?
Cloaking an affiliate link means changing the “look” of a link so the visitor CANNOT have any clue if it belongs to an affiliate or not.

If you promote Clickbank products, their affiliate links have been looking like this for a long time :

http://xxxxxx.yyyyyy.hop.clickbank.net

I.e. : http://AFFILIATE.kickbutt.hop.clickbank.net

But these links can easily be noticed into the status bar.. and it can result into loss in sales.

There are two main reasons why you should cloak your affiliate links.

Reason #1 :
..is because people don’t like to know they are being sold to.
When someone smells a salesman coming around, we are all taking a step back.. right ?

Because we know that the main purpose of this all.. if for them to make money !

now if I do have a domain named
www.ThisIsMyWebsite.com

I could easily cloak this link :

http://AFFILIATE.kickbutt.hop.clickbank.net

so it looks like this :
www.ThisIsMyWebsite.com/WHATeverIwant

It looks way less like someone selling something.. isn’t ?

(I’ll show you how to cloak your links at the end of this page)

Reason #2 :
..is because of the other affiliates who wants to buy your product.
Let’s pretend I am an affiliate on Clickbank, and I find a website talking about this great product. If I see a link, I click on it, and it looks just normal:
..chances are that I might purchase that product right away.

If I like this same product, and when I click on a link, I see that it’s actually a product from clickbank.. I could change YOUR link for MINE.. Copy this link in my address bar, and go back on the sales page.

What does this do ?
Instead of you making $50 when I buy the 97$ product, I get $50 in my affiliate account when I purchase it.
This means I got a HUGE discount, and you lost one nice sale.
Just because I am an affiliate who noticed a link that had not been cloaked.

So in other words, you can only benefit from cloaking your links.

Now, how to actually cloak those links ?
For the method I am about to show you, you will need your own domain name and hosting account.

(if you don’t have a domain/hosting, I suggest you use something like tinyurl.com)

Let’s use my website for this example.. And I will use the Micro Niche Finder keyword tool as my product. (by the way; nothing compares to this tool!)

My affiliate link, which is this :
http://loginfo.kickbutt.hop.clickbank.net
has been transformed into this :
http://JeffreyMireault.com/keyword-tool/

but they are both sending my visitors to the same page.

How did I do that ?

1. Create a new folder in your domain. Mine was “keyword-tool”. (I suggest you name your folder according to a keyword you want to rank for)
2. Create a file into that folder : index.php
3. Add this text into the php file :

<#?php
header( 'Location: http://loginfo.kickbutt.hop.clickbank.net' ) ;
?>

4. Save your file.
5. Enjoy !

(IMPORTANT : in the coding I have given you, you can see a # at the beginning. For the code to work, you want to DELETE this #, and replace the address with your affiliate link.)

and that’s it ! Since the file is named index.php you can use

http://JeffreyMireault.com/keyword-tool/

instead of

http://JeffreyMireault.com/keyword-tool/index.php

Si if you have any questions or comment, don’t hesitate to let me know !

Until next time,
Keep Smiling

It depends..
(what a great answer)

First, what is a successful niche to you ?
Maybe making 5-6 sales a week is success to you ?
Maybe making $100 per day is success to you ?
I’ve known people making over $400 per day, only with articles.. and that was just not enough !

But hey! Let’s be realistic here, and pretend that our goal is to achieve a good $100 per day.

Many people would be more than happy to make this much money, and this is a very reachable goal.

But before taking any conclusion regarding how many articles are needed, you will have to test your landing page.

No matter what you are selling, and no matter if you are advertising with PPC or not, you want to find the “conversion rate” of your landing page.

Basically, you want to know how many people out of 100 are likely to purchase your product.

Of course, to get significant numbers, you have to do testing for a little time.
And I know, conversion rate can be modified/improved in order to get more from our visitors, but that’s another story.

But to achieve your goal, I suggest you start testing a site by using Adwords PPC for a few days, and please, make sure you TRACK your clicks. (use Google Analytics)

Now.. if you have 2% conversion.. or no!
Let’s pretend you are just starting out, and worst case scenario;

You have a 1% conversion rate.
For every 100 people to your site, you make one sale.

Let’s say you make $40.

To make $100, you would need 250 visitors.

Since you are starting from scratch, we will pretend that there are no daily visitors to your site; No traffic from the search engines; And no other links than those articles.

In average, an ordinary article on ezinearticles can be seen between 30 & 100 times in it’s first day.. (sometimes it can be over xxxx’s views tho)

Let’s say 50 visitors per approved articles..

1: Start with EzineArticles.com
To get 250 visitors, you need to get 5 articles approved.
It is a bit of work to do, but what would you do for $100 per DAY ?

And even though it is boring, to get started, you need to do this steadily for.. I’d say a month.

Here is why :
By doing so, for 30 days, you should generate around 250 visitors daily, and about $100 in sales.
But while these articles are giving you direct traffic, they will also end up being ranked on Google too.. Because you are a smart marketer, and you’ve made your articles keyword relevant.

One last supposition : Let’s say that every new articles you write ENDS UP giving you ONE daily visitors. It will probably be more than that.. but let’s say that after the first “release-rush” you get 1 daily per article (it is more than that).

After a month, not only have you made your $100 daily, but you now have a minimum of 150 daily visitors, resulting in 1 to 2 sales on automation ! Keep going + create more backlinks and you are good to go.

Once there, sky is the limit.

If you want to learn ways to generate tons of backlinks to your site, I’ve also written a post about backlinks.

What you just read above is one of the many possible action plans to get your $100 per day !

Enjoy,

And keep smiling !

Here’s a question I found on Yahoo Answers and I wanted to share it with you.

I know the title’s long, but I wanted to keep it intact. This is the way that this person formulated his question.. and I am glad you can see it.

We can learn a lot from this; especially about the state of mind that this person was in at that moment.

“Is affiliate marketing another smoke screen..”
Maybe this person got caught into some other hypey product promising a wealthy future full of benefits.. ? But what we know is that this person has already been “played” and they’re on their toes..

“..to sell useless guides to desperate people ?”
Do I have to say more.. ?

This man wanted an honest opinion regarding affiliate marketing, because he could see the opportunity, but was afraid he would get caught into another scam.

But the most “powerful” word he used was : Desperate !

..and we can, for our business, use the fact that this person is desperate..

BUT Hold On a Second !

We are going to make one thing clear: no matter what the situation is, if you want to jump into an opportunity like this one, you have THE OBLIGATION to actually help that “desperate” person.

You cannot just take advantage of him/her.

How are you going to help him while taking the benefits ?
- What about sending him an invitation to join your list, cause you teach this for free ?
- Why not sending him to a trusted place where he can really have something for his money and learn from successful people too; What about Wealthy Affiliate ?
- Why not simply send him to a free forum like Digital Points or WarriorForum for example ? He will thank you many times and surely follow you afterwards.
- Or even sending him to the Bum Marketing course; that’s a good way to get started !

Those are all ways you could HELP this person ! And not only would you give a hand to someone in need, but you would also grow your business by doing so !

Now you know what the nice part is…

There are THOUSANDS of people who are looking for help from honest and trustworthy people !

Simply make sure that you don’t just make money off their back; The impact that such moves have on people is much more than losing $50..
It’s more like if you were taking away an opportunity/dream/HOPE from them, and believe me, nobody deserves this.. (plus, Karma goes a long way!!) hehe

And I am sure that most of you can relate to someone in particular, who has helped/motivated you in some way.. And I bet you are still watching what this person does every once in a while right ?

Oh, and where to get started with helping people out ?

Yahoo Answers! (thanks to Justin Brooke & Chaunna)

Yup! I had heard about Yahoo answers many times.. but never really used it..up until today. This is a great tool to know more about the NEEDS of the people in your niche.

..And why did I share this with you ?

To make you notice that people are asking for your help all the time; you just don’t realize it.
Now that you know, take action !

and keep smiling,
Jeffrey

I thought I could share how to get two high quality/PR backlinks with you today.

Nothing complicated; takes 5 minutes flat.

Aboutus.org
Register, then click on My Page on the right.
Follow along; it’s nice & easy

one down, one to go.

Wiki Directory
Register, click my contributions, and either create a USER profile talking about (your name).
Or create an “index” for your website / services / name

It’s not long at all, and it should help Google to find you within a few hours I think

Enjoy

How to get tons of backlinks…

Isn’t this the most challenging part ? Getting the backlinks done to start seeing traffic appear on your site ?

But how can you generate backlinks; Where to get started ?

I am probably going to forget many ways, but here it goes :

#1 – Social Bookmarking/Networks

You have heard about StumbleUpon, Technorati, Digg, Simpy, Slashdot, Propeller, Reddit, Delicious, etc.. Did you ?
There are literally hundreds of different social bookmarking sites you can use to generate backlinks to your site. And the good thing about those links is that they usually come from websites with a PageRank (PR) of 3 or higher !

But the only challenge with using social bookmarking is that they are time consuming. To fix this problem, you can either outsource the work by asking on DigitalPoint or go to Elance.com for example
OR
You can use OnlyWire.com.

The boring part with OnlyWire is to actually subscribe to all the sites they suggest, but once you are done, you will be able to add your site to over 20 bookmarking sites in less than 2 minutes !

Oh! And don’t forget the social networks as MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, etc..

#2 – Article Writing :

Another good way to generate high PR links..
But the difference with the articles is that you get a chance to actually interact with your visitors before sending them to the specifies link..

.. and this is critical.

Write an article that sounds like a sales page; The visitor probably won’t ever click that link. You only get that backlink for SEO pupose.

Try to help and give valuable information to the people reading your articles, and not only will you have “SEO juice” from that link, but an article can do a better job than a sales page.

After reading articles, sometimes people are ready to purchase a product before having seen the actual official website !

The best place for articles is without a doubt EzineArticles.com, but they are picky; what I mean is that your articles will need to be perfect before being approved, and it takes a few days.

But it’s totally worth it.

For a complete list of article directories, check this blog.
They are listed with their Alexa rankings, and it shows their PR too.

#3 – Forums :

Forums are a very rapid way to generate backlinks to your site from a relavant high PR website.

You can almost always add a signature link on a forum, and even if it’s a no follow link, you can still get some juice from it. (see SEO Lies, from Justin Brooke)

And by doing so, you will also get valuable information regarding your niche..
Why is that ?
Because the first place to go to get an honest opinion on something is on a forum.

That’s where the real deal is. No BS; No lies; Just ordinary people sharing information.

For a list of all the biggest forums online (also a way to have millions of people see your link) :

www.Big-Board.com

4# – Blog Posts

There are millions of blogs online where you can post comments to.
All you have to do is to look for blogs that are relevant to your website. Once you found a few, enter in there, say something smart, and leave a link to your site there.

If you say stupid things or just a copy/paste/automated message, chances are that the owner is going to remove your post !

You can use softwares like Comment Kahuna for this.

#5 – 30 Minute Backlinks method

This is a method I’ve learned from Michelle MacPhearson, an established Internet Marketer.

I am not going to tell you exactly how it works;
Michelle worked hard on creating her product, and since I bought it, I know it is WELL WORTH it’s $97.

I know, it is a big investment! But what I learned with her guide is a way to generate hundreds of backlinks within only a few minutes.. And the process can be repeated over and over again.

And this is not about spamming blogs with useless posts of stuff like that! The 30 minutes backlink course is teaching a unique method to get links from website you would not usually think of !

What’s the 30 minute backlinks course ?
.
.
So that’s it !
I do have a few more tricks up in my sleeve, but I have to keep them for the next time you come back !

Get started with these methods, and you should see your website appear in the rankings pretty fast !

Until then,
Keep Smiling

Jeffrey
