Roy Reyer and Jerry West; Amazing Internet Coaching Phoenix on November 15, 2009.
Online PR News – 20-October-2009 – MORRISTOWN, AZ – Roy Reyer, the internet guru who sold his network to his biggest competitor for over seven figures and Jerry West, one of the most successful affiliate marketing advertisers on the Internet have announced a brand new SEO training conference to be held in Phoenix.
The Phoenix AZ SEO Rainmaker’s Conference will be held on November 15, 2009 at the Crowne Plaza in Phoenix Arizona. SEO gurus Roy and West will share their personal success strategies and internet marketing methods to help participants successfully bolster their business during the recession.
“The Rainmaker conference is well-known for it’s intimate atmosphere where participants can easily discuss internet marketing issues that are affecting their business. Our goal is to show as many people as possible the actual internet marketing strategies that we used to create our success,”
“During this economic recession we realize business owners need access to methods and strategies that will help them grow their business without having to spend thousands of dollars. Through the SEO Rainmaker’s Conference we will help them create the rain that their businesses need to grow and flourish,” says Roy Reyer of Amazing Internet Coaching.
Roy Reyer is well recognized in the SEO industry as the developer of the immensely successful ‘RadarBusters’ network that was eventually sold to his competitors for a 7-figure price. Jerry West is equally well known in his niche for being one of the best known affiliate marketing advertisers and is also the author of the SEO Revolution. The pair met at a Search Engine Academy Workshop in Las Vegas and joined forces to teach others exactly grow successful businesses.
Because the recession has been tough on many businesses, Roy and West are offering participants a chance to learn these proven marketing strategies for the cut-rate price of $249. Previous participants of other Rainmaker workshops will know that this is a steal as previous events have cost as much as $3,000 to attend and even Roy Reyer’s SEO class costs at least $2,000 to attend.
Unlike other workshops, the Rainmaker search engine training conference is lively and interactive. Roy and West discuss practical SEO topics that participants can immediately apply to their businesses. The conference will help participants work less but achieve more control over their business while identifying new opportunities to dominate Google rankings. The Phoenix event is scheduled immediately following the PubCon in Las Vegas, so that Roy and West can disseminate this cutting-edge knowledge to participants.
“The Rainmaker AZ SEO training class is well-known for it’s intimate atmosphere where participants can easily discuss internet marketing issues that are affecting their business. Our goal is to show as many people as possible the actual internet marketing strategies that we used to create our success,” concludes Reyer.

Free SEO Event; Az SEO and Internet Marketing Meetup
One of the most critical and costly mistakes businesses make when creating their online presence is the development of their website.
As an example over the past several weeks I was brought in as a consultant by two separate companies whose goal was to increase their positioning in the organic search results (free search engine rankings) and to increase their Google AdWords quality scores to lower their pay-per-click advertising.
Both clients had new websites that were developed by outside web design companies that had no background and/or experience with search engine optimization and the cost of each of these clients’ sites was over $12,000.00.
When I met with each client and showed them the problems with their new websites and telling them that it wasn’t going to work, their first comment to me was “Well I paid all this money to these guys, shouldn’t had they known better?”
My short answer is no and this is why;
Many web developers take short cuts when building websites using stock images, templates and wizards taking the “website out of the box” approach and building what I refer to as an “economy car”.
You can never take an economy car out to the Indy 500 or a NASAR event and expect to win, to be successful you need a high performance race car!
The same is true with your online presence with Google being the ultimate endurance event.
In other words in order to be successful in today’s online market you need to have a high performance website that will dominate your competition.
Now I’m sure that you’re thinking to yourself “Heck, I have to spend boat loads of money to have someone like you to build this high performance
website so I can be successful in Google”, my answer is no!
However what you do need is some of the basic understandings of what the search engines like and dislike.
Therefore, during our FREE SEO Training Meetup in September, I show you some of the most common errors people make while developing their websites along with free tools and web publishing programs that you can use to get started.
And if any of our participants are brave enough, we will also do site reviews of their websites giving tips on how they can improve their online presence.

After reading this post, please be sure to sign up for my “FREE SEO TIP OF THE DAY” if you have not yet done so.
By subscribing you will receive my daily newsletter where I discuss the strategies that I’ve used to build out my RadarBusters network to a seven figure business which I then sold to one of competitors in 2007 making my family and I millionaires!
AZ Internet Marketing and SEO Meetup Teleseminar
Tonight I hosted our June Teleseminar for our Az SEO and Internet Marketing MeetUp Group with a total of 36 members during the call.
Here is a recap of questions and comments during the event:
Ryan – Surprise Az:
If you could pick one philosophy, approach or mentality that was most helpful in empowering you to make money for yourself, instead of other people, what would that be?
Kelly – Phoenix Az:
1) Say I’m trying to think of a name for my web site/product. Where do you recommend we go to see if the name is being used?
2) I heard Go Daddy is not the best place to buy a Domain site do you agree? And If not what’s best?
3) Lastly I heard that once I/ we do get a domain that it’s important to NOT just leave it Stagnant. Best to at least have a park page and get some links to it yet have our own text. Agree?
Jeff Green-Mesa, Az:
Thank you very much for your time Radar, your great, I look forward to learning from you.
Steven Scheeler – Mesa Az:
What is a good bounce rate for Google analytics?
Jeff Green – Mesa Az:
What is organic marketing?
Travis Merrick-Chandler Az:
Hello Roy, I am glad to get in on this. Preach it brother! It has been a while!
Bill – Tempe Az:
What does your good buddy Howie Schwartz do to get on page one of Google so quickly and consistently?
Brian Johnson – Phoenix Az:
With Google’s recent changes/enhancements for LOCAL search, have you seen a drop in your national organic traffic? If so, what’s a good approach for balancing the two (local vs. national) assuming it’s not a local product/service?
Steven Scheeler-Mesa Az:
Any Marketing seo ideas for the New google WAVE coming up?
And the top question asked tonight and who won a free GoGuides directory listing was:
Skylar-Scottsdale, Az:
The question is regarding list building techniques. On a site that is new with little traffic or traffic that is just beginning, do you have some recommendations on how to quickly build an email list? In other words, do you have recommendations on a ways to quickly build an email list while implementing all the SEO basics and social marketing basics that create traffic. I’ll be running a contest or any giving some things away as part of my strategy. Any ideas on things you have done to build a list quickly? Just saw Frank Kerns, triangle of trust. Will try that also.
I would like to thank everyone that participated and you can listen in to this Teleseminar by clicking the button below and listen in to my answers to these great questions!

June’s SEO Training Workshop Sold Out!
The last couple weeks have been very hectic for me and I’m just now catching up after being away from my office.
Two weeks ago I spent the week in Omaha with Netshops, a niche Internet retailer that purchased my RadarBusters network in 2007, discussing the current trends and products in the speed counter measure industry with their staff.
Netshops is listed as 82nd on the Internet Retailer magazine’s top 500 list and in 2007 Inc Magazine named them the nation’s 5th fastest growing retailer in the US.
A large part of Netshops success I feel is due to their focus on niche markets with their various specialty stores that focus on products that are “best of breed” and their staff’s “can do attitude“.
This same level of success has also been mirrored with several of my other client’s websites who have this same focus and attitude;
One client whose specialty is RV and commercial truck accessories.
A client whose niche is specialty accessories for the off road market.
And a client who offers online training in OSHA safety.
One effect of our economies meltdown observed is that companies that have this “Can Do Attitude” are re-evaluating their marketing priorities and are discarding or reducing their print, yellow page and newspaper advertising all of which are difficult to measure ROI (return on investment) and turning their attention toward Internet advertising.
Therefore it was not all that surprising to me that when I returned home to Phoenix to teach my June SEO training workshop last week that my class was sold out!
Students included web developers, the CEO of a lead generation company, other SEO and Internet marketing professionals, the owners of several e-commerce websites, the director of a home/business service company and an individual that specializes in usability issues for the blind.
During my five day SEO workshop the main theme that was echoed by the students that the current state of our economy had opened new and exciting marketing opportunities for each of them as they embraced the power building a niche through competitive and market research, keyword research, Latent Semantic Indexing, how to identify and target your audience, creating the “Fantasy Result”, and the power of social media.
Local Search SEO Seminar
Have you ever been in a situation when once you feel that you totally understand the rules of the game someone tehn comes along and changes the rules and the entire environment of the game changes?
That’s exactly how many Internet Marketers and I felt when Google changed the landscape of local search on April 6th when they announced on their blog that they would now include local search results in their regular organic listings.
Several months ago I was asked to be a featured speaker regarding local search at the Off Line Gold Summit held this past weekend in Las Vegas. As I was going to speak before a room packed with other knowledgeable Internet Marketers and business owners my staff and I spent months on research and testing the local search arena so I could be totally prepared.
So on April 6th I found most of the material and research I had done for this event pretty much worthless so with only two weeks to now prepare a entirely new presentation, I gathered up my crew and hit the road running.
I put the finishing touches on my presentation during my introduction and I then took center stage what perhaps may had been the first SEO training seminar regarding Google’s new local search.
The following video discusses this presentation along with testimonials from my audience.
What’s All the Fuss about Twitter?
Many Internet Marketers call Social Media the “new gold rush” because the opportunities it has afforded to those who have implemented social media into their marketing campaigns and because there are no rules.
I agree that SM opens new opportunities to market your goods and/or services; however to really take advantage of the power of the social media landscape and build a loyal following there are a few simple rules you should know and follow.
My Arizona SEO and Internet Marketing Meetup presentation last Thursday night was “What is All This Fuss About Twitter” and I discussed the importance of properly creating your social media profiles and several of the tools that I use to manage my own and clients campaigns.

SEO MasterMind – Teleseminar
Every Successful Internet marketer I know participates in at least one MasterMind!
One of my most memorable comments I recall an associate of mine making during one of my first MasterMind calls was that “Internet years are measured in dog years ” and in order to remain competitive in our online marketplace we need to network with other successful marketers.
Personally I found SEO forums as a big time waster in that there was so much information and debate that I would get caught up in the conversation and that it was hard for me to sift through all the information. I also attend numerous Internet Marketing seminars such as PubCon, StomperNet and as I find them very educational and a great opportunity to network, but they are also expensive and require time away from business and family.
In 2004 I joined my first MasterMind group with other successful and like minded Internet marketers where once a week we would call into our conference and discuss our projects, ask our burning questions and coach each other to become more successful.
Last night I launched my first MasterMind with students from my first SEO Training Workshop and in the coming weeks will launch another SEO teleseminar for our Phoenix SEO MeetUp Group in two weeks.
Here for you is the recording of last nights telephone SEO Seminar in its entirety:
