TMS019: Overlaying Your Ads On Your Competitor’s Sites with PPV (Gauher Chaudhry)

Monthly Archives: April 2013 /
4 Comments
Mike & Troy's Top Marketing Strategies Podcast

This week we wrap up our three part mini-series with Gauher Chaudhry and cover PPV (pay per view) traffic. This is one of the most targetable forms of paid traffic you’ll find and has many advantages that other forms of paid traffic don’t. For example, the ability to put popup ads right over the top of your competitor’s websites – now THAT is targeted. This is one of the best forms of paid traffic for many to start with because of how laser targeted it is and it is also Gauher’s “baby”. You see, Gauher actually invented the word PPV – it used to be called CPV traffic. But his PayPerView Formula training course became sooooo popular that it actually redefined the name of an entire marketplace and even vendors began renaming their usage of CPV for PPV. So yeah, [...]

TMS018: Non-Google PPC with Gauher Chaudhry

Monthly Archives: April 2013 /
5 Comments
Mike & Troy's Top Marketing Strategies Podcast

This week continues are three-part segment with Gauher Chaudhry in our paid traffic series. Last week Gauher talked all about PPT and it was a real eye-opener to many as it’s not a super well known form of paid traffic. This week Gauher dives into the bread and butter of his experience – pay per click or PPC traffic. But what we really like about Gauher is that his PPC experience is very exhaustive and complete. Most people think of PPC and *assume* you’re talking about Google Adwords. And while Gauher does still use Adwords and has extensive knowledge of Adwords, his real focus is on non-Google PPC alternatives. And that is exactly what we focus on in this interview. We gloss over Adwords and just focus on alternatives. Don’t worry though, we’ve got lots more coming in an upcoming [...]

Mike & Troy's Top Marketing Strategies Podcast

Every now and then the stars align and you get that great opportunity – this week is one of those weeks. We had the opportunity to interview one of the great young and talented marketers online today this week and it was a lot of fun for us and we know it will be for you as well. There just aren’t that many marketers online that have achieved what Neil Patel has achieved at such a young age. But what’s most inspiring about the interview is his approach. In fact, we absolutely love the word he used to describe it – “scrappy”. You see Neil’s not obsessed with tactics, instead he focuses on hard core strategies and old school marketing to take his businesses to the next level and he just gets down and dirty, in the trenches and makes [...]

I was enjoying my cup of coffee this morning – Easter Sunday – and saying goodbye to my children as I’m heading back to the United States later tonight. For those that don’t know, I have three children and my two oldest are with my ex and live here in Brazil with their mom. I come down here regularly to spend time with them and that’s one of the main reasons that Mike and I bought a place as an investment property in the Orlando area – it’s a pretty easy non-stop 8 hour commute for me to Brazil. Well, my children had just left and I was sitting here having a cup of great Brazilian coffee and catching up on a little email. I’m really not one to watch TV. Though we have a big screen TV, I mainly [...]
