I know everyone & their brother does free webinars, and more often than not in my experience the quality hasn't been all that high. They're usually just sales pitches in disguise. I want to separate those who just want free information, from those who will hopefully actually USE what I share with them, ask good questions, etc. Anyone who's been on my webinars in the past probably knows that I don't do pre-planned or "canned" presentations. That's fine for sales presentations, but I feel strongly that I need to show people the real deal... what happens when you're REALLY trying to do this stuff, and not just pull a "Julia Childs" and magically have a completed, perfect example to show. I really hate when people don't show an entire process start to finish, wrinkles, warts, and all. Plus I always stay as long as there are questions... I don't do the "Sorry our time is up" thing. If there's 3 hours of really good questions, I'll stay and field them. Since I'm not selling anything on webinars like this, I feel strongly that charging a little something isn't at all unreasonable. Hell, when you buy Microsoft Windows you don't get Word or Excel for free. ;) Anyway, I understand how you feel and of course if anyone who paid is unsatisfied with what they get out of the webinar, I'll issue an immediate refund.

Also, very kind of you to allow non-members access as well. But ... to charge existing customers a fee is IMHO a bit much. Really ... every single day I get invitations to webinars on all sorts of topics from seasoned marketers and I can count on one hand the number of times where there has been a charge involved. No offense buddy ... just my two cents worth on this beautiful Saturday morning. Wayne Hey Jonathan:

Yes the recording will be made available to everyone who registers, so even if you can't make it live you'll be covered. Of course I personally would love everyone to make it so that there's more questions & interaction, but I'll manage even if you want be there. =) Great to hear from you again! JVC Hey William!

Will you be making it available to those that don't/can't/won't/don't deserve to be there? I am looking at using WPGen in some landing pages that I will be driving traffic to from facebook and I want to have some cpa offers on it This is right up my street as I am geting into cpa again and I know your 'stuff' of old and enjoy and profited from it a lot in the past. All the best William... Hi J

I can’t make the webinar because I am on holiday but I would like to see the replay.

This is right up my street as I am geting into cpa again and I know your ‘stuff’ of old and enjoy and profited from it a lot in the past.

Not everyone wants all the modules so I'm moving towards an "ala carte" model I think for the future. WPGen doesn't come with any specific theme or template, but I highly recommend <a href="http://tooltrainer.com/profitstheme" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">ProfitsTheme</a> as a good place to start, I use it myself and it's great for sales pages, membership sites, etc. I'm using it for almost all of my sites & sales pages now.

Your server is THE lynchpin of your business, so spend a little money on something more reliable and robust! So I try to base it on profits rather than traffic... although I find that with PPV as soon as you send more than maybe $10 an hour of traffic, you'll cause serious problems on a low-end host, so in that respect I say just plain don't even DO PPV or any high-volume traffic strategies on a low end host.

I have a feeling a Hostgator Baby account won't even stand it after a couple of page loads, especially when disabling the cache. Thanks for all the great value you've provided over the years.

If you're trying to pull articles for a keyword that, most likely, nobody has written about... then you won't likely get anything back. But if you're using the scraper, it will pull content for dang near anything since it's using RSS feeds and other sources to pull that content. More than anything it depends on the particular dynamic content option you choose to use. Hope that helps! JVC It really depends on the content source.
