SEO is Dead Going Live
Today is one of those rushed posts, so the odd grammar and spelling mistake aside, I wanted to make sure you get a quick status update on what’s happening around the SEO IS DEAD report.
The SEO IS DEAD has actually been ready for the past 3 weeks, however I delayed releasing the report because I wanted to cross check some of my own research with one of Google smaller (but significant) algorithm updates which happened a week ago before I released the report. In this business the facts really are in the smaller details.
The good news is all the facts and research tie in perfectly, and I am now confidant that it’s the right time to release the SEO IS DEAD REPORT
Now I don’t say this light heartedly, and those of you who know me well will vouch for the fact that when I make a bold statement about something, you can bet your life on the fact that not only is that statement true and factual without compromise, but that it is backed up by comprehensive research and testing.
So here is the bottom line, the SEO rules are changing drastically, and I am afraid most online business are already falling way behind, and with even stricter control and a change of pace and mindset over at the king of search you can bet your last penny that things are going to get even tougher if you don’t understand the rules of engagement.
Now this is not some pre-sales tripe and hype, these are the facts. There is a major Google update looming, similar or worse to the infamous Florida Update and the online space is in for a major wake up call when this happens. In fact my own research shows that 92% of all top ranked websites sites sampled are not only at risk, but have a 85% chance of completely loosing their rankings.
One the one hand this spells disaster, especially if you are actively working on your SEO profile, however on the other hand if you are well informed then this also represents a major opportunity… at the end of the day the choice is entirely yours to make!
I will be releasing the SEO IS DEAD REPORT on Tuesday 21 July 2009 at 9:30am GMT+2 and the announcement will be made to my blog email subscriber list (currently 8,517 people subscribed), and to my twitter account (currently 12,017 people subscribed), so needless to say this I expect all copies of the report to go VERY QUICKLY.
So if you want a copy of the report, make sure you watch my blog, your email address or my twitter account on Tuesday 21 July 2009 at 9:30am GMT+2
Now as a final note, I am looking for a few beta testers to test out the system before we officially go live, so if you are interested in getting your hands on this report early, simply add your comments below, tell me why you are interested and I will hand select a few people to beta test with.

Hey Justin
I’m looking forward to your report, and I’d be willing to be a beta tester too if you still need some more testers. I have a bunch of websites (both new and old, local and international) where I can test and implement some of the strategies.
Good luck with the launch, I know it’ll be a huge success. Your advice and training has always been great and I’ve learned quite a bit from you already.
Cheers
Chris

Hi Guys,
I just wanted to quickly make the point that the beta testing is for testing my online delivery system of the SEO-IS-DEAD report and not for the strategies (these have all been tested and proven already).

I like many of your readers really value your input and this report is something that I really need because right now I am very invested into seo and I want to make sure I do the right things.

Justin Harrison said,

Hi Yoon, yes that is correct. The beta testers will that way be assured of getting a copy.
And I will be selecting a few people from these comments on Monday and emailing them directly with the links to grab their copy and test out the system, so keep those comments comming.

I am very excited to get my hands on a copy.
I would also like to be considered as a beta tester. I am not an IT/WEB genius (as you know) and because of this I think apart from the testing I might give you feedback from a different perspective than most Super Geeks on here..
If you don’t consider giving me a copy, I might use “my IT skills” and during the course tomorrow hack your laptop for it….lol.
See you tomorrow!

I have just forked out R318.00 to buy Chris Anderson’s FREE from Amazon on expedited delivery and the shipping cost me more than the book. I have done that because by the time I did that I have already listened to the audiobook and I have watched videoclips online and knew exactly what I was in for – hence n hesitation or procrastination on spending that money.
Now I’m not a skeptic or a hater. I know that to get to where you are now, you definitely know something.
But you’re not throwing us any bones by offering “beta testing”, the function of which is just a guarantee that “beta testers” will definitely get a copy.
And a far as the title of the report.. nothing dies anymore. It evolves. SEO is no exception.

Justin Harrison said,
Wrote on July 16, 2009 @ 3:46 pm
@ Arthur, I realise that the only advantage to the beta testers is that they are assured of their copy, hot off the press, and before anyone else…
…. to some this might not be an advantage, for others who are already heavily invested in their online businesses, getting breaking news first is the difference between success and failure, the first movers advantage if you will.
As always the choice is entirely yours!
As for the name of the report the original name was “Traditional SEO IS DEAD” naturally this did not roll off the tongue as well as SEO IS DEAD and was not nearly as memorable, does the name create a stir and is it a play on words… silly question, how else would I get people to take a serious look to help themselves.
Luis Teixeira from www.luisteixeira.co.za said,

Ain’t it funny that when there is something “FREE” everyone wants in..
I also have to admit this must be the longest thread to a post on Justin’s Blog!

Can not wait for the ebook next week or maybe even sooner!!!

Well, I have no expectation of being chosen for a beta copy and certainly won’t beg for one. I find the concept of $$$ IS DEAD to be sensationalism, but I am intrigued by what you have to say about the future of SEO. Enough so that I’ll keep tuned. I’m an SEO guy but have much to learn.

I will be waiting at my computer 24hrs for your email… oh, no pressure but I make my living off SEO alone so if things don’t work out in the next couple months for me because I didn’t get the report then I will be coming to sleep on your front door.

Thank you very much for affording me the opportunity to be a beta tester. I really appreciate it a lot and trust that I will be able to report valuable feedback back to you.
Because this is such a long thread I feel obliged to let everybody know on here how great the course (Internet Marketing Upstart) were we attended last week. If an opportunity ever occur that any of you can attend anything of Justin, never hesitate. He is the real deal…..he is not paying me for this comments…lol
Thank you very much Justin for last week! Also thank Shea for everything. Your unselfishness and helpfulness I believe must be a major part of your personal success.
Ps: Have spend the whole day yesterday on niche research and after a bit of thinking and “telescope research” I already have a list of over 30 possible niches. Obviously some is less good but I understand what you explained much better now and understand going deep much better!
