Velocity Marketer Hosting is closing.
ATTN: Customers and Prospective Clients
It is with sad hearts that we are announcing the official close to Velocity Marketer Hosting.
Due to the Global Economic Crisis our client base has dropped sharply and does not allow for the hiring of new support staff to continue offering the high level of service we have provided since inception. With that in mind we as a company will not offer a service that does not reflect our promise of rapid experienced support and client promotion.
No new clients will be taken:
Existing clients have been issued a notice that they will have until the end of February to find new hosting service to migrate their websites to prior to our closing of the c-panel system and access to accounts. Clients who have moved their service prior to the end dates of their current contract will be refunded the remainder of un-used service as per the site terms you agreed to at the beginning of your contract. Full details have been e-mailed to you at your account e-mail address.
Existing hosting clients in need of support related to their moving of websites and domains from our system may place a support ticket in your user back office..
Velocity Marketer and Velocity Marketer Hosting in conjunction with DG Innovations / Pyrium of Australia have been proud to serve you, and have valued every client. This was a tough call but a much needed move to save resources and consolidate our business.
It is with further sadness we announce the retirement or semi retirement of CEO and Hosting admin Dave Gilbert. His technical skills in design and SEO, had him in high demand among clients and made Velocity Marketer Hosting work.
Dave has reached a time in his life where 10 years of late nights and early mornings has demanded he now focus a majority of his time to family and living life. His grand children demand his presence and we wish him the absolute best in his at least scaled back workload.
Dave has been asked to remain a periodic author for My Viral Blog sharing his wealth of knowledge and has offered limited consulting to Dale and Myself. He may also be available for outsourced work on design projects in the future, but his services will not be a daily part of Velocity Marketer moving forward.
Dave has been friend and mentor to me for the better part of 5 years. a true friend in success and trials alike and his efforts have resulted in a strong business model that has survived where others have failed. I am proud to have had him as a business partner for so long.. I am even more proud of our friendship which knows no bounds, even the thousands of miles of land and water between Australia and my home in Yuma Arizona. Dave and his family will always be a part of our extended family and a door will always be open to his return.
Thanks to Dave for his service and our clients for their business,
Andy Anderson

Back UP or Backed Up
Owning a Website can leave you vulnerable to all sorts of disasters, your site can be destroyed in seconds by hackers,virus attacks or equipment failures.
While it is common to backup your data, for small businesses this is not always possible as the majority of hosting companies charge for this service and generally only do a weekly or monthly backup which can still mean massive loss of data if yours is a busy site.
Not only do hosting companies charge to back your data up but they usually also charge you to have your data restored in the event you do suffer a problem, at Velocity Marketer Hosting we recognize that most businesses are already paying a big chunk of their On-line profits out to Advertising ,Hosting, Web Design & Development and Marketing in order to maintain sales, Having to find extra funds when calamity does strike can be the last straw.
So We decided to do something about it in the form of totally free backup and restore services with every hosting account and unlike our competition we maintain a Daily + Weekly + Monthly backup of your precious data, if a problem arises with your site a simple email or phone call will see your data restored within 12 hours with minimal losses.
This means the website owner can relax knowing that their data is safe and in the event of a site failure there would be no costs involved in having the site restored.

Velocity Marketer Hosting Updates 10-23-09
Good afternoon,
If you are revisiting or are a existing customer of Velocity Marketer Hosting you will notice a all new look and feel to the website. We have done a new web design that is more contemorary and professional and adressed many issues with site navigation as of today. A prime example would be fixing any broken links and redirecting all sign up links directly to the hosting account purchase form.
About Dave Gilbert
For our clients being directly served by Dave Gilbert I must inform you that Dave who lives in Australia had a brief bout with the flu that knocked him out for a couple days only to find that when attempting to come back to work he had a equipment failure related to the modem from his ISP. Dave will be out until Monday October 26 2009 when Telstra expects his service to be brought back online with new equipment installed.
Sad to say Dave is sidelined until that time and while it is surely driving him nuts, it’s his first vacation in over 5 years.
Server side issues will be handled upon Dave’s return as he is our server admin, account billing and inquiry issues can be handled through our regular member support desk.
Velocity Marketer Hosting is proud to announce the opening of our official US office.
Velocity Marketer Hosting is a product of
Velocity Marketer USA in partnership with DG Pyrium Australia
Business location and contact details are clearly marked on the contact page of our website. Please be kind and use the contact form or the help desk for business related to Velocity Marketer only and not to give a sales pitch for non Velocity companies and sites.

Velocity Marketer Hosting updates July 25th
Hello again our business friends and valued customers,
Velocity Marketer and Velocity Marketer Hosting are proud to announce that development of system additions is moving right along.
In the past week we have added Velocity Marketer Advertising and have placed a bounty on new advertisers offering double your initial advertising spend up to $150. A purchase of $150 in pay per click advertising would net a $300 initial advertising budget across our network that includes 2 growing search engines, and a PR5 directory, Gr8t4Games, and several other programs both live and soon to be launched. We also have a great publishers program and your targeted ads will also appear on our free blog hosting and community network My Viral Blog. Visit Velocity Marketer Advertising here in a new window.
My Viral Blog is in pre-launch and starting to grow as new bloggers are signing on to get free blogs and community support. Boasting a growing training center focused on professional and niche blogging, with groups and friends, private messaging and more we are rapidly being established as the place online to host a free weblog. My Viral Blog is also an amazing training resource for home business owners and those blogmasters looking to earn cash from their blogs. Visit us here in a new window.
SEO Services launch soon.
We have begun work on the pages that will tell clients how to get a free quote and provide information on our search engine optimization services that have helped us reach PR4 or above in 6 months or less on our own sites and have clients enjoying high page ranks and tons of free traffic around the web. Prior to now we have not placed our SEO services out as a public offer and have dealt strictly on a one to one basis with select clients. SEO services will soon be openly marketed across the internet and you will be able to benefit from our expert services.
My Viral Business store will also launch soon.
MVB will offer scripts, training materials, software, Word Press themes, Joomla templates, Drupal themes, and website templates as well as exclusive advertising opportunities such as RRS niche syndication and so much more to the Internet community. It will also be the selling place for services such as our SEO or search engine optimization serviceand will allow affiliates to earn a finders fee for these high value products and services from the Velocity MArketer you have grown to love.
My Viral Business offers a free affiliate program but the real money is in becoming a Business Affiliate Member.
BAM members will receive 2 tier earnings from the affiliate program, a 40% discount on digital downloads items, 25% off their hosting accounts at Velocity Marketer Hosting and a free domain name. In addition every money we will send out a special edition newsletter with exclusive offers, first in opportunities, and a free download valued at a minimum of $30 a month. This discount club membership packs a punch for our business clients as you will save money on scripts, designs, software, and advertising, save cash on hosting services, get a free domain name, and also grab our monthly download with a minimum retail value matching the price of this exclusive membership.
The membership itself can bring added income to your business every month.
Business Affiliate Membership will pay the affiliate member that referrs the sale a $7.50 commission per BAM referred for as long as they stay active and paid in full. When a Bam referrs a Bama member they earn $7.50 commission off that sale but also earn monthly commissions off all sales made by that affiliate as well. In addition to membership comissions you also earn 25% commissions on all direct sales of products and 25% commissions when referred affiliates generate sales as well.
These are products that over 100 million website owners need daily so there are tons of commissions to be made and referring is as simple as placing a banner on your existing site or telling a business owner on your contact list how they too can save money on their personal use items while generating added income.
Easy Search Live Directory update.

Marketing tips don’t use URL cloaking.
URL cloaking is it a good home business move?
To shrink or not to shrink, that is the question.
Every day we see hundreds of sites, e-books, and softwares that recommend using a redirect service like TinyURL.com to shrink ugly or long affiliate links claiming that they protect affiliate commissions and make the link look better. Think Track That Ad or many others and let’s take a look at how this works.
Regular affiliate link: http://www.myprogram.com/aff/track/username
Shrunken URL : http://www.urlservice.com/13635
Pretty went out the window with the number after the domain name and it also lost search engine value as neither a redirect or a number instead of a name will result in indexing. In addition instead of the visitor going to your affiliate site first they are sent through the urlservice.com site giving them credit for your traffic. None of this helps you sell or convert anything.
SPAM and Scam risk.
I refuse to click a shortened link personally because of having been attacked with a nasty virus through just such a program. Hackers, Spammers, and Scammers use these programs to cloak a site that is a known attack site and keep your virus software from blocking it. By using the same service these people do you have thrown trust and probably 2/3 of your potential visitors out the window so someone else could steal your traffic and get you to promote their site for free.
Traffic Theft.
How many of these URL services do you see that display ads above, below, over, or during your visitors time on the site you sent them too. These ads are flashy or interrupt the flow of the visit and distract from the sale. Worse yet most of these take the customer away from your offer if they click the link. Say goodbye to your customer as the other users and paid advertisers say thanks for the sale. You are being robbed at every turn by the poorly designed services.
So what do I do with those ugly links?
Simple, buy a domain name and hosting account. Most come with a simple auto responder system and in minutes you can build a intro page or blog without knowing any HTML. There are now a couple ways to create pretty links from your hosting account.
Method 1: Sub-domain redirect. In your C-panel you create a sub domain like product.mysite.com and then select redirect and aim the redirect to your affiliate page. Takes less then 10 seconds to do. Or build a splash page using the easy type and save website builder included with your account and 5 minutes time to add a splash page with link to the program and a auto responder capture form.
Method 2 folder redirect: Instead of a sub-domain you would add a folder like mysite.com/myoffer/ Again you would use a redirect from the folder or use the web builder to create a small splash page which can also include your auto responder sign up form.
Method 3 is to simply link in your programs from the main site and promote that site. You can either add a link to them or add a pre-sale page with lead capture and a link to them.
Regardless you will take control of your business and see benefits that even direct promotion of your link will lose for you. When you have your own domain and lead capture system you get the leads instead of the company you are promoting, and you get credit and search engine rankings for your traffic. You also will be using 100% text based links that can be ranked in the search engines giving free traffic to your offer and will not have the risk of being confused with the fraud sites that use URL shrinker services also called URL cloaking services.
Today is the day you work smarter and not harder, today is the day you should join free at My Viral Blog and get real training for success, no tricks, no hidden catch. We have optional affiliate programs and advertising that displays to fund our program, we make money even if you never buy or sell anything other then your existing programs and can teach you how to use Viral Blogging and domain name promotions to build a stronger business.

Why home business owners fail.
Joe Freebie is the name I call the mindset of those who fail. There is a huge difference between those who can not afford to invest in their own success and those who just wont do it because they still believe in the internet marketing lie.
See there are free affiliate programs designed to earn you money without buying any product or membership, but unless you invest in the right tools you limit your business to hit and miss and leave tons of cash on the table.
Promoting the affiliate site directly gives leads away and does not allow a marketer to take advantage of free search engine traffic or build multiple streams of income. When you do not have your own website or auto responder you leave a boat load of cash on the table that a simple hosting account can change for you in minutes.
An affiliate marketer can join 20 programs but if they don’t have a site to tie them together to promote one link with all programs in a manner people will notice and visit those links they will simply have to work 20 times as much to promote them all. If they don’t have a auto responder they can not capture leads and follow up to make the sale.
Affiliates who have no hosting account and domain name, no auto responder or website of their own let the programs they are in rob them of success. They hand over 100% of leads, and 100% of traffic and page rank to the business owners and have a hit an miss shot at securing the sale.
Fact: The average person must see a program or product 7 times before they decide to buy.
Fact: 94% of online users have a Anti Spy software that deletes cookies when they log off for the day.
Fact: Once your cookie has been deleted anyone or no one can steal your prospect from you as very few affiliate systems use IP tracking like we do.
Fact: A website with auto responder are your best chance to get a fresh cookie in the browser of your prospect when they head to the site to buy.
Breaking the Joe Freebie mindset is vital to success, you must know how and when to invest in your business. The program or product cost is far less important than the tools you use to build a downline and generate sales. A marketer can earn a fortune off free programs like Click Bank and E-Bay partners but the odds are against that happening if you don’t have a domain name and contact system in place.
Thanks for all you do,
Andy Zeus Anderson
