Kyudo practice at Budapest seminar with sensei Matsuo Makinori.

Some 3 Things Getting You Money Online

They are: a blog + a blog + a blog.

In other words: traffic sources + landing page + follow-up.


Why would a sane internet marketer use such a 3 in 1 tool, instead of working with specific tools on specific tasks?

They wouldn’t. But a blog is able to boost the results of other tools, if used properly.


Today I read an advanced marketer advice to a beginner, that all she needed was traffic sources + landing page + follow-up and I suddenly realised I pretty much have them already!


Traffic sources are many, so why do I only mention the blog?

I am not going to list all the things one need to make money online, I just mention three of them, which can, together, bring essential targeted traffic to you and turn that traffic into leads, than into buyers.


A blog is getting you good traffic only if you say things that are beneficial for your readers.

I intend to build this site to be oriented to help the beginners to make money online, because I am a beginner myself and I struggle with the overwhelming information I find on the internet.


If I can provide you, my reader, with the minimum of it, that’s useful to you right now, without you doing the hard work yourself, you and others will spread the word and other people will visit this site for quality, helpful info.


So this is not only traffic, but targeted, good traffic.

Good for you, good for your friends, good for me, too.


A landing page is what you need to establish a lasting connection with your visitors, by having them give you their email address in return to your favour.

Please note that I say you must have them give you their email address, not you take their email address.


Which means you have to be the one who give them something first, so that they will be kind enough to you to let you have their contact info.I dislike using the name “squeeze page”, which implies something not honest.


Some people may not be really interested in making money online right now (wealthy or weird people), but may become so in the future (when they’ll get broke or sane).

So you have to let them know that it is you the one to talk to and learn from, when they’ll need it.


And a blog is a great way to keep them close to you, if you provide them with information that is beneficial for them and that they can use immediately. A blog works like a landing page that your readers want to opt in themselves, all the time, if you give away good stuff.


Right now, I invite you to put in your email address, to let me keep you informed about more cool stuff that I’ll post here, but especially for stuff that’s only accessible for the members of my list.


Which brings us to the third essential thing for making good money online:


The follow-up sequence. The emails you send them are meant not to bring all kind of false promises and pushy offers in front of them, but to share with them what you found nice and useful, to tell them what you know about some great product, to teach them what you learned and is good for you and for them and so on, to educate them regarding the fastest and easiest ways to bring them inner positive development and prosperity for them and for their close ones.


You can send them tens and hundreds of emails, but you can add to that your great posts on your blog, increasing their satisfaction and your credibility.

The blog is presumably always fresh, so, as incredible as it may sound, it feels more close, more personal than those autoresponder messages, many of them copied/pasted (which I never do, btw).


I want my blog to be my best follow-up method. Which means I’ll let you know whenever I post good, useful content. So make sure you’ll get the notifications, by entering your best email address in the box below.


Also, leave your comment on this post below, tell me, and others, what you think, what you like, what you don’t. You’d help everybody by doing that, because I’ll bring a better content next time.

Good for you, for me, for everybody.

Typing Lesson for Kyudo Learners (...What?!)

type-on- computer


It happens more often than less, before my kyudo training sessions, that simple

thoughts comes into my mind that become interesting when related to kyudo.

And when I find out about such goodies, I forward them to you, my reader.


As I started blogging, touch-typing (typing without looking at the heyboard and at the text you’re typing) became more important than it was before. So I am learning and practising, pursuing two essential aspects of it, if I want to be like a “pro”: accuracy and speed.


Now, if I couldn’t have both all of the time, I would favour accuracy when I’d

publish a blog post or I’d release an article in the newspaper, or else I would prefere speed if I’d take notes at a conference or webinar.


But… can I have them both, accuracy and speed, at the same time?


Hey, wait, what does this have to do with kyudo, anyway?!


It has everything, once that we answer this:

Can I aquire both, simultaneously? Should they be improved one at a time? Better working on parts and than on the whole, alternatively?


The answer is, when learning any kinetic skill, we should combine the two aspects, but the key to speed is accuracy.

Always strive for 100% accuracy, never concentrate on speed alone on the expense of accuracy. Speed will come eventually.


When it comes to kyudo, accuracy translates to the correctness of our movements and positions, while the speed would correspond to fluently connecting movements and positions in the desired succession.


We know, generally or more detailed, what we have to do and in what order.

Once that we know, in theory, what Ashibumi means, for example, or Torikake, or Hikiwake, we can work on doing them, watching ourselves while doing them, observing what doesn’t work and correcting that, on the spot or next time we’re doing it.


A little notice here. “On the spot” means here to anticipate, to prevent falling in the mistake. Still, if we’re already “in” the mistake, it is better to to let everithyng flow as they do, keeping the issue in mind for the next trial. We only turn back if it is really bad (I mean really bad).


The best is to identify the most persistent problems and work on them separately, until they are “acceptable”. Anyone who ever tried learning to play an instrument find it normal to rehearse small chunks of music until the fingers play by themselves, than to integrate the parts into the whole.

This phase of working on details only until they are “acceptable” (“okay, let this be as is”) makes us to strive more and more for

walking through the whole Hassetsu.


It is this stage when, through practising, the details become more and more familiar to us and it becomes easier to watch and controll more and more aspects of what we do, than everything coagulates and flows less jerky, with lesser constious attention required.


Than it comes the smile :), than the serenity :|.

PS: It is completely different when we learn and work on mental/intelectual skills, such as learning a new language, or learning how to make money online.

I can’t wait to tell you about that, so please sign up for notifications from me to
