			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><p><strong>Offer Closed</strong></p>

<p>***</p>Today Friday 6th January at 6.00pm I&#039;m running a final pre-release sale for Multiple Streams Themes Seven.</p>
<p>If you purchased this earlier last year in a pre-order sale, I sincerely apologise for the delay.  You can now go back to your personal download page and grab it plus pick up a little bonus I promised to those who pre-ordered and then ended up waiting a loooong time for it.</p>
<p>I finally (!) managed to get the original designer of the theme to do the conversion (after 2 attempts by others) and he&#039;s done a great job of it.</p>
<p>He&#039;s actually come up with a better method of adding a slider to the front of the blog under the header, and in fact it&#039;s so nice now that I&#039;ve made plans for where to use it myself on one of my sales sites.</p>
<p>I just have to bundle it all up with PSDs, banners etc and it&#039;s ready to go.</p>
<p>Speaking of which, it comes with a nice selection of pre-designed banners including blank JPEGs / PNGs and PSDs for them, plus umpteen sidebars, an additional page template, plus plugins (Ads Manager, Redirection, Squeeze Page Templates), and a set of theme options too.</p>
<p>The theme options allow you to turn on and off the featured content and top boxes and change footer text. The theme also supports the WP 3.x features of custom menus.  And finally, we&#039;ve included a really nice slider area at the top under the menu where you can place presentational images, extra ads etc.</p>
<p>You can place content including an image into the slider simply by making a new post and then putting it into a category called &#034;featured&#034;.  The theme will then pick up the first part of the text of the post and place it in the slider area &#8211; it&#039;s really cool.</p>
<p>If you want to add an image as part of the content of the slider, then you can use the built in WordPress &#034;Featured Image&#034; functionality just by editing the post and clicking &#034;Set Featured Image&#034;.  You can then upload or choose an image from the library just as you would when adding any image to WordPress.</p>
<p>If you use an image with a transparent background then it will cleanly overlay and merge with the bacground of the theme.</p>
<p>It&#039;s amazingly simple to do and the results are stunning.</p>
<p>I&#039;m going to use it as a showcase on one of my own sites, so watch out for that shortly.</p>
<p>Today at 6.00pm GMT (1.00pm EST), I&#039;m running a final 25 copies only sale for MST007 available for just $10.</p>
<p>(I&#039;m also re-opening <a href="http://www.frankhaywood.com/affiliate-click-pal-its-a-monster/">Affiliate Click Pal</a> this weekend for those people who&#039;ve written to me to say they missed it last week because they were away.  Fair enough.  I&#039;ve made another 10 copies available and that will close when they&#039;re gone.)</p>
<p>In the meantime you can see the MST007 theme in action here:-</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p><p><strong>Update</strong>: The PLR membership is now OPEN and is currently <strong>$27.00/month</strong> until I reach my target number of subscribers.  At that point I'll increase it to the regular price of <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">$47.00</span></p>

<p>You can get to the sales page here:-</p>

<p><a href="http://www.plahh.com/">http://www.plahh.com/</a></p>

<p>***</p>Tomorrow (Thursday) I&#039;ll be re-opening my PLR membership at a temporary reduced price, and I&#039;ll reveal that price now.  It&#039;s just $27 a month for PLR to TWO product sets.</p>
<p>Or put another way, it works out as $13.50 each&#8230;  <img src='http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><p><strong>Update</strong>: The PLR membership is now OPEN and is currently <strong>$27.00/month</strong> until I reach my target number of subscribers.  At that point I'll increase it to the regular price of <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">$47.00</span></p>

<p>You can get to the sales page here:-</p>

<p><a href="http://www.plahh.com/">http://www.plahh.com/</a></p>

<p>***</p>Tomorrow (Thursday) I&#039;ll be re-opening my PLR membership at a temporary reduced price, and I&#039;ll reveal that price now.  It&#039;s just $27 a month for PLR to TWO product sets.</p>
<p>Or put another way, it works out as $13.50 each&#8230;  <img src='http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>But that price is only valid until I fill up my remaining slots to make the membership viable for me to continue to run.  (It&#039;s been touch and go.)</p>
<p>Each month you&#039;ll get PLR to 5 sales page designs, PLUS additional PLR to either a WordPress plugin or theme, or a PHP script or other program, or a special report or video set created by me.</p>
<p>It&#039;s a pretty good deal.</p>
<p>Just the five sales pages alone are worth your membership.</p>
<p>Ask anyone.  If you were to pay to have ONE sales page created for yourself, they&#039;d cost you $47-$97 depending on who did them for you, and all you&#039;d get back is the design with uneditable PNG or JPEG files.</p>
<p>With the ones we supply you get Private Label Rights to the entire pack of 5, PLUS all the PhotoShop PSD source files.  In addition we make sure there are no hard-coded text in graphics (wherever possible) and in the few cases there are, we also supply blank JPEGs or PNGs so you can use your favourite graphics editor to add your own text.</p>
<p>Okay?</p>
<p>As for the cost of developing the WordPress plugins and themes, you&#039;re talking anything from five hundred to two thousand dollars and upwards &#8211; go find out for yourself.  So I think it&#039;s fair to say that every month you&#039;re getting between $750 to $2000 worth of products you can rebrand and call your own.</p>
<p>At the special relaunch price of $27 it&#039;s not just a good deal it&#039;s a smoking deal!</p>
<p>***</p>
<p>First I&#039;d like to give you a bit of background about the membership.  I opened it in November last year, and everything went fine until about March when my one and only designer took an office job in Singapore.  He still does some part time work for me.</p>
<p>Then I had to fire one of my plugin developers as he was supposedly working full time for me and (when he slipped up) we found out he was also working &#034;full time&#034; for one of my friends.  (No wonder he was getting slower and slower&#8230;)</p>
<p>This left me with a full time plugin developer and a part time designer.</p>
<p>And then to make matters worse, my remaining developer decided to go look for an office job too and also went part time in June.</p>
<p>While this was all going on I just couldn&#039;t find the right people to fill the gaps left behind and from April until now I&#039;ve been struggling to fulfill the promise of 2 monthly PLR products as part of the membership.</p>
<p>It even got to the stage last month where I&#039;d just about decided to close up shop on the membership as I couldn&#039;t see how I could continue to deliver products like I had been &#8211; I&#039;m certainly not a designer or a plugin developer.</p>
<p>And then out of the blue I picked up two new designers, one of whom can create WordPress themes.  Hurrah!</p>
<p>I then (by accident) found a part timer who is now in training to become my full time PA and Project Manager in March 2012.</p>
<p>But the icing on the cake is I also found a new full time coder, AND just this week my part time developer has increased her weekly hours to almost full time.</p>
<p>Suddenly I have a full set of staff and that makes the membership viable again.  And I also have enough &#034;give&#034; in there to make sure that if someone leaves then the membership won&#039;t suffer like it has this year.</p>
<p>***</p>
<p>To kick off the relaunch of the membership with a bang tomorrow, I&#039;m adding in some extras.  So instead of you joining and getting one month&#039;s worth of products, I&#039;m including a few more bits and pieces too.</p>
<p>The current product set is for August, but I&#039;ve left July&#039;s active too.  September&#039;s will be ready next week.</p>
<p>So when you join tomorrow, you not only get July and August&#039;s membership products, you&#039;ll also get September&#039;s too when I add it in a few days time.</p>
<p>That&#039;s THREE months worth of membership in this first month.  (For existing members I&#039;ll put something else in so you don&#039;t feel left out.)</p>
<p>Forget pretty good, forget smoking, this is a RED HOT deal.</p>
<p>But ONLY when you join tomorrow at just $27 / month.</p>
<p>When I fill the minimum membership slots I need, then the price goes back up.</p>
<p>I&#039;ll give you some additional details tomorrow and re-open the membership at 6.00pm GMT (1.00pm EST).</p>

<p>***</p>
<p>This Friday we&#039;re going to have a little sale for a brand new plugin that will make your WordPress blog go crazy evil viral all over FaceBook.</p>
<p>Phew!  That sounds exciting doesn&#039;t it?</p>
<p><a href="http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-content/uploads/lp-02-250x250.png"><img src="http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-content/uploads/lp-02-250x250-150x150.png" alt="" width="200" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>So what&#039;s it all about and what&#039;s up with the title?</p>
<p>*sigh*</p>
<p>I&#039;ve done something I never thought I would.</p>
<p>I joined Facebook.</p>
<p>And the reason is because we&#039;ve only gone and finally built a FaceBook plugin, haven&#039;t we?  I knew it was only a matter of time really, but I wanted any FB plugin we created to have some tie in to WordPress sites, and it had to have a marketing angle of course, something to do with driving FaceBook traffic to a blog.</p>
<p>And so eventually Like Plus (Like+) was born.  No it doesn&#039;t work with Google+ yet as we can&#039;t get a Google+ account to configure and test it with, but as soon as we can and IF it&#039;s possible, we&#039;ll incorporate G+ into it as well.</p>
<p>(<strong>Update</strong>: I now have a G+ account thanks to Tim who *just* beat Ray to the punch.  Thanks guys.  I&#039;ll try to put some time aside for it ASAP, I hae a couple of things I need to get finished first though.)</p>
<p>So I took one for the team and I joined FaceBook so I could use the plugin myself on my own sites.</p>
<p>What does it do?</p>
<p>Well, it&#039;s a little like another one of my plugins called &#034;Subscribers Only&#034;.  In fact the principles behind it are very similar.</p>
<p>How it works is you can hide some important piece of text or HTML on one of your blog posts or pages, and it won&#039;t be revealed until AFTER your visitor clicks the FaceBook &#034;Like&#034; button.</p>
<p>Aha!</p>
<p>So your visitor clicks the Like button on your post or page for a ZIP or PDF or whatever it is you&#039;re offering, and ONLY then can they get at what they&#039;re after.</p>
<p>In return, YOU get a new &#034;Like&#034; on their FaceBook wall, which is then included in ALL their friends FaceBook Newsfeeds&#8230;</p>
<p>Muhahaha!   <img src='http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_twisted.gif' alt=':twisted:' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Sorry&#8230;</p>
<p>I&#039;m sure you can straight away see how viral this can make your blog?  Hence the evil laugh.  <img src='http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em>Their</em></span> friends will see what they &#034;Liked&#034;, and some of <em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">them</span></em> will click.  Some of them will &#034;Like&#034; it too  in order to get at your hidden goodie.  And it will then appear on <em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">their</span></em> wall and <em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">their</span></em> friends newsfeeds&#8230;  And so on.</p>
<p>You&#039;d use it in conjunction with some killer offer you come up with to get people to Like it for you.  Here&#039;s the sequence of events:-</p>
<p>#1 &#8211; Once your visitor has liked it the content reveals itself &#8211; it could be a link to download a report they want.</p>
<p>#2 &#8211; In the background the Like then appears on their wall and in their newsfeed.</p>
<p>#3 &#8211; Their friends then get to see they&#039;ve Liked something and may click the link to see what it is.</p>
<p>#4 &#8211; They read the offer and decide they want it too.</p>
<p>#5 &#8211; They Like it.  Goto #1.</p>
<p>Viral or what?  <img src='http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>The way I see it is, it needs to be used judiciously.  If you put it on every single post and page then it will almost immediately lose its effect.  People won&#039;t want to &#034;Like&#034; everything on your blog.</p>
<p>What you need to do is set up a killer offer on a page or post.  Something really good.  Something where visitors will go &#034;Yeah! I want! I <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Like</span>!&#034;</p>
<p><strong>*click*</strong></p>
<p>I&#039;ve tested it, had it tweaked and re-tested and then had it tweaked some more.  I&#039;m happy with it.  So on Friday 12th at 6.00pm GMT we&#039;ll have a little rising price sale.</p>
<p>Now I *could* be really evil and require you to &#034;Like&#034; the post or page first before you can get the link to the sales page, but for now I&#039;m just toying with that idea.</p>
<p>I may even require you to &#034;Like&#034; the page to reveal the buy button.  <img src='http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Yeah I might just do that.  Or some variant on it.</p>
<p>Here&#039;s another idea.</p>
<p>Maybe you get to see the regular buy button with the regular price, but if you &#034;Like&#034; the page for me, then you get to see the discounted buy button instead.</p>
<p>Ooh yeah!  There&#039;s LOTS of ways you could use this when you stop to think about it isn&#039;t there?</p>
<p>And the upshot is, it makes your page VERY popular.</p>
<p>NOW can you see how powerfully viral this is?</p>
<p>Really POWERFUL marketing stuff&#8230;</p>
<p>Excited yet?</p>
<p>Worth having?   <img src='http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_cool.gif' alt='8-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><p><strong>Special Offer Closed</strong></p>

<p>The theme is now available for $27.00 until it goes officially live.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.vendiva.com/smartdd/paypalredir.php?aid=83"><img title="Buy now" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/x-click-but5.gif" border="0" alt="Buy now" /></a></p>

<p>***</p>You may have noticed my slight absence recently &#8211; maybe not &#8211; I&#039;ve been on a coffee fuelled race testing the affiliate scheme, prepping all the PLAhh stuff I&#039;m delinquent on (I now have the PSDs  hurrah, it&#039;s a miracle!), running a few test WSOs (I&#039;ll share the results soon) and generally getting sites into a state where I can open them at last.</p>
<p>I&#039;m usually quite busy, but it&#039;s nothing compared to what I&#039;ve been doing this last two weeks and I&#039;m a little bit hyper right now as I gradually discharge some of my outstanding responsibilities.  Thanks for your patience with me, I&#039;m really grateful for that, and I&#039;ll publicly explain what&#039;s been going on soon.</p>
<p>Anyway&#8230;</p>
<p>While we&#039;re STILL waiting for MST007 to be completed (you may already know the sorry tale about this, but I&#039;ve MORE to tell soon) the original designer has just about completed MST009.</p>
<p>As usual it&#039;s really nice (my wife wants this one on a blog she&#039;s putting together with a friend), and I think I might end up using this one on the PluginGreat site.  Notably, he&#039;s gone for a different slider routine that auto-adjusts itself depending on how deep the image is.</p>
<p>This means that instead of being stuck with a fixed depth slider, you can now make your images as deep or as shallow as you like to suit both your taste and your blog.</p>
<p>When this sale is over, this theme will be the first one I&#039;ll put on sale on the MST web site.</p>
<p>(Yes, at last I&#039;ll be doing that too.  It&#039;s ALL happening at once&#8230;)</p>
<p>Now then.  When I make it live, I&#039;ll put it on sale for <del>$27</del> and add the others as I go, but in this pre-launch sale it will be available to the first FIFTY customers for just <strong>$10</strong>.</p>
<p>Okay, so what&#039;s it look like and what features will it have?</p>
<p>First, here&#039;s a screenshot, middle click it for a slightly larger version.  What you can&#039;t see in these shots is there&#039;s a very nice crosshatch effect on the background:-</p>
<p><a href="http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-content/uploads/MST009.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-1500" title="Multiple Streams Themes Nine" src="http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-content/uploads/MST009-544x1024.jpg" alt="" width="544" height="1024" /></a><br /></p>
<p>With this theme, you get ALL the nice pro-blogger stuff that the MSTs are becoming known for&#8230;</p>
<p>It comes with a good selection of pre-designed banners including blank JPEGs / PNGs and PSDs for them, plus umpteen sidebars, plugins (Ads Manager, Redirection, Squeeze Page Templates), and a set of theme options too.</p>
<p>The theme options allow you to turn on and off the slider, top boxes and top and bottom ad areas, change footer text and add analytics code if you don&#039;t have the Script Manager plugin.  The theme as standard now also supports the WP 3.x features of custom menus and backgrounds.</p>
<p>It&#039;s all done, I&#039;m just waiting for my designer to upload the final version, hopefully tonight (Wednesday).</p>
<p>***</p>
<p>In the meantime&#8230;</p>
<p>The fifty-copies-only-at-$10 pre-launch sale for MST Nine will go live on Friday 29th right here at 6.00pm GMT (1.00pm EST).</p>
<p>(I reckon it&#039;s worth $10 just for the editable banner ads, let alone everything else.  You&#039;d pay over $100 for these on Banners Mall.)</p>
<p> <img src='http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>*Phew!*</p>
<p>-Frank Haywood</p>
<p>P.S.  My designer is, in this order:-</p>
<p>o Completing this theme.<br />
o Retrofitting MST008 with the slider.<br />
o Completing MST007 &#8211; I&#039;ll explain all about this shortly.</p>

<p>***</p>
<p>Tomorrow, I&#039;ll be doing a sale for what *may* be my last new WordPress plugin for a little while&#8230;  We&#039;ll see.</p>
<p>I have a lot of work to do promoting all the other ones, and I have staff working on some exciting standalone scripts like Affiliate Click Pal.</p>
<p>Speaking of which, I&#039;m now 95% confident I&#039;ll be releasing that to you on Monday if you pre-ordered it.</p>
<p>(I&#039;ve just received a new version that can now send out emails to both customers and affiliates, and it&#039;s ready to go but depends on me doing the written documentation and videos over the weekend.  I know you&#039;ll want that doing, so please bear with me, we&#039;re nearly there.)</p>
<p>Back to this last plugin&#8230;</p>
<p>The original idea was for a plugin that could switch the payment button depending on where the traffic was coming from.  The reason being that if it was affiliate traffic, then it could show a ClickBank button, and if it was plain old search traffic, it would show a PayPal button and you get paid right away.</p>
<p>But I then realised it would be more realistically used to switch in and out absolutely any HTML at all.</p>
<p>So for instance if the traffic to the site was from a search engine, then the plugin would detect this, and show a snippet of HTML according to the rule you set up.</p>
<p>This could be an image/banner ad, or a special deal for new subscribers or whatever.</p>
<p>We also included the ability to add multiple rules, and we decided it should be as flexible as possible in order to show different HTML for different circumstances.  So you can add multiple click sources to one of your rules, and also use * wildcards with them.</p>
<p>Like this:-</p>
<p>*.google.*<br />
*.yahoo.*<br />
*.bing.*</p>
<p>If none of the rules are met, then it will show some default HTML you added, or even nothing at all.</p>
<p>That last one is so that if someone has bookmarked your site or is following an email link that you&#039;ve sent them, then clearly they&#039;re already regular visitors, so you won&#039;t want to show them an ad to subscribe.</p>
<p>Make sense?</p>
<p>Tomorrow at 6.00pm GMT I&#039;ll be running what I believe is this last plugin sale for a while through this blog.</p>
<p>It&#039;s NOT the end of an era though, as I don&#039;t intend to stop altogether.  This will just be a little pause in the process while I readjust everything.</p>
<p>Maybe I&#039;ll have another one for you in a couple of months time&#8230;</p>
<p>***</p>
<p>The 50 copies only $10 sale will start tomorrow evening at 6.00pm GMT (1.00PM EST or Summer variants).</p>

<p><strong>P.S.</strong> PLAhh customers will get some nice news over the weekend.  <img src='http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /><br />
<strong>P.P.S.</strong> MST007 *should* be finalised tonight and as soon as it is I&#039;ll release it to you.<br />
<strong>P.P.P.S.</strong> As I said above, ACP will be out on Monday.<br />

<p>Hamant Keval posted a comment on the post for the sale I ran this last weekend asking how the subscription box slide-down in my sidebar worked:-</p>
<blockquote><p>&#034;<span style="font-family: courier new,courier;">While i was here I noticed that you had that subscription form appear in a slide down &#8211; I could not stop my eyes from going there!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: courier new,courier;">What is that plugin ?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: courier new,courier;"> I would like that one for sure</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: courier new,courier;">Thanks again for these great super sales</span>&#034;</p></blockquote>
<p>It *is* a cool effect, and I do that with a plugin I released at the beginning of the year called &#034;Delayed Widgets&#034;.  It adds a little delay timer to ALL of your widgets (where possible &#8211; most of them) so that you can choose how long before the widget reveals itself in your sidebar(s).</p>
<p>It *was* currently on sale at $17 here on my blog, but as Hamant is so excited about getting this I asked him if he&#039;d like me to run a quick sale, and he said yes.  (I have a tight schedule on at the moment and I&#039;m running out of time.)</p>
<p>So effectively immediately for the next couple of days, I&#039;m making a final 30 copies for sale at $10 her in this post.</p>
<p>As a sweetener, I&#039;m also including a bonus copy of another similar plugin called &#034;Delayed Text Widgets&#034;.  It&#039;s a direct text widget replacement that functions in exactly the same way as the regular WordPress text widget, but is often easier and more appropriate to use.</p>
<p>And as a second sweetener, I&#039;m including RESALE RIGHTS with the SECOND bonus plugin &#034;Delayed Text Widgets&#034;.  (Not the main plugin.)</p>
<p>Hmm, here&#039;s a thought.  My affiliate scheme is *just* around the corner.  You could add your affiliate link for the bigger version of this plugin &#034;Delayed Widgets&#034; into the bonus plugin and distribute it.</p>
<p>When people click it to find out about the bigger plugin, they get cookied.</p>
<p>When they buy, you earn 50% commission.  When they buy any other one of my products, you continue to get 50% commission on everything.  ACP refreshes the ClickBank cookie and so artificially extends it longer than the normal 30 day CB cookie.</p>
<p>So, you get:-</p>
<p>#1 &#8211; Delayed Widgets for personal use on all your blogs.<br />
#2 &#8211; Delayed TEXT Widgets that you can give away or resell with your aff link included, promoting Delayed Widgets.</p>
<p>Sounds pretty cool doesn&#039;t it?  <img src='http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>If you already purchased this plugin earlier this year, then go back to your personal download page and you&#039;ll see that the second resale rights bonus plugin has been added.  <img src='http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><p><strong>Offer Closed</strong></p></p>
<p>-Frank Haywood</p>
<p>P.S.  In a couple of weeks I&#039;m hoping to show you a plugin I&#039;ve just come across that I think is totally awesome.  It&#039;s one of those easily underestimated &#034;OMG, this is GENIUS&#034; plugins and I wish I&#039;d thought of it myself.  More on that soon.  <img src='http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><p><strong>Offer Closed</strong></p><strong>Update</strong>: Image for Content Replacement plugin for Lars.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-content/uploads/content-replacement-01.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1463" title="content-replacement-01" src="http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-content/uploads/content-replacement-01.png" alt="" width="518" height="209" /></a></p>
<p>***</p>
<p>Today 8th July at 6.00pm GMT (1.00pm EST plus Summer variants), I&#039;ll be opening a weekend sale for two of my favourite plugins.  You may have missed them in the last 12 months, and now is your last chance to get them at a discounted price before they get added to the affiliate scheme and go live.</p>
<p>There are <strong>THIRTY</strong> copies available in this weekend sale.</p>
<p>The first is called the Content Replacement plugin, and what it does is replace small (or large) snippets of text and code on your blog posts and pages based on a date and time.</p>
<p>I use it all the time, in fact I&#039;m going to be using it today to run part of these sales.</p>
<p>So what you can do with it is set a time and date you want the text or HTML to appear on your post, and another time you want it to disappear.  Both fields are optional so you can do things like publish a snippet of content right now and have it disappear at 9.00am tomorrow morning.</p>
<p>Or set some content to appear tomorrow at 9.00am and have it stay there forever.</p>
<p>It&#039;s incredibly useful, and I didn&#039;t realise how useful until I started using it.</p>
<p>It works by you adding the HTML and setting time(s) and date(s), and it then creates unique [short-code-tags] for you.  You then paste these tags where you want the text or HTML to appear, and when they&#039;re active they show, and when they&#039;re not, they don&#039;t.  Simple.</p>
<p>You can also stack them so that you can have text and HTML swapping in and out at different dates and times.</p>
<p>Today at 6.00pm, it will cause some text and two payment buttons to appear for each of the plugins, and at 9.00am on Monday, the payment buttons will disappear and be replaced by text that says &#034;Offer Closed&#034;.</p>
<p>Once I&#039;ve set it up, I can forget it and go worry about other things.  <img src='http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p class="pg-separator" style="margin: 0 auto; padding: 0; text-indent: 0; width: 100%; text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="/wp-content/plugins/pg-big-ed/tinymce/separator/images/dashed-blue-narrow.png" alt="separator" align="middle" /></p>
<p>The other plugin is called &#034;Subscribers Only&#034;, and this one I don&#039;t use on my personal blog, but I do use it on other blogs in my network.</p>
<p>It&#039;s very useful for gathering WordPress subscribers.</p>
<p>It works in a similar way to the Content Replacement plugin above, but in this case the content only shows when someone joins your blog as a WordPress subscriber.</p>
<p>So once you&#039;ve added your code and placed it on the page where you want it to appear, your WordPress subscribers won&#039;t see anything out of the normal.</p>
<p>However, non-subscribers instead see a little padlock symbol and a message saying the content is for subscribers only with a link where they can go subscribe.</p>
<p>It&#039;s very cool and I use it on niche blogs together with the WordPress Autoresponder.</p>
<p class="pg-separator" style="margin: 0 auto; padding: 0; text-indent: 0; width: 100%; text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="/wp-content/plugins/pg-big-ed/tinymce/separator/images/dashed-blue-narrow.png" alt="separator" align="middle" /></p>
<p>For this final weekend sale, both plugins are just $10 EACH if you missed them first time round.</p>
<p>After this weekend, both plugins will increase in price (at least $17 each) and be added to the affiliate scheme, so it&#039;s well worth getting them now if you don&#039;t already have them</p>
<p>Don&#039;t say I didn&#039;t warn you.  <img src='http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>You can see the payment buttons appear as if by magic  at 6.00pm GMT (in about three hours time as I write this).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><p><strong>Offer Closed</strong></p><strong>Update</strong> 26th July:  The person doing the conversion has disappeared, but my regular guy is going to pick this up right after some other work.  It will probably take another week to 10 days.  So as an &#034;I&#039;m sorry&#034; I&#039;ve decided to extend PLR rights out to everyone who bought in the pre-order sale.</p>
<p>If you purchased, check your email for details.  there&#039;s other good news about the image slider in there.</p>
<p>***</p>
<p>While we&#039;re all waiting for the first version of Affiliate Click Pal to be officially released in the next few days, I thought we&#039;d have another pre-order sale &#8211; this one for Multiple Streams Theme Seven (MST007).</p>
<p>Pre-order sales I&#039;ve run in the past seem to be very popular, (especially so in the case of Affiliate Click Pal) so I&#039;m continuing that tradition.  <img src='http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Now you might be thinking to yourself &#034;Hang on, didn&#039;t I just get MST Eight a month ago?  And this is now Seven?&#034;</p>
<p>Well, yeah&#8230;  There&#039;s someone else been working on MST007 &#8211; actually two other people at different times &#8211; but that&#039;s another story.  It just needs to be said that Seven will probably be completed by Wednesday or Thursday next week.</p>
<p>At that time it will go on sale for $27, but in this PRE-ORDER sale it will be available to the first FIFTY customers for just $10.</p>
<p>Okay, what&#039;s it look like and what features will it have?</p>
<p>[Middle click the image below to open in a new tab.]</p>
<p><a href="http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-content/uploads/mst007.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1427" title="Multiple Streams Themes Seven" src="http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-content/uploads/mst007-209x300.jpg" alt="" width="209" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>As usual, it comes with a nice selection of pre-designed banners including blank JPEGs / PNGs and PSDs for them, plus umpteen sidebars, a selection of built in page templates, plus plugins (Ads Manager, Redirection, Squeeze Page Templates), and a set of theme options too.</p>
<p>The theme options allow you to turn on and off the header, top boxes and top and bottom ad areas, change footer text and add analytics code if you don&#039;t have the Script Manager plugin.  The theme also supports the WP 3.x features of custom menus and backgrounds.</p>
<p>And finally, we&#039;ve included a slider area at the top under the menu where you can place presentational images, extra ads etc.</p>
<p>I know that in the image it looks like a carousel, but that&#039;s an &#034;artists impression&#034; if you like and should be taken with a pinch of salt.  I admit the design looks really cool, and if we can include a carousel style rotating image that will be great, but more likely is it will be a slider.</p>
<p>Here&#039;s something interesting.  (Oh come on, it&#039;s ALL interesting.)  <img src='http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>While looking at carousels, we came across a jquery slider that looks really good, and I think we want to move to this.</p>
<p>(In case you didn&#039;t know, jquery is much better to use than Flash as the CPU load is waaay lower, and that means that people using older slower machines will get the same experience as someone using a brand new one.  Not so with Flash.  Anyway, back to the plot&#8230;)</p>
<p>This jquery slider we found will slide images, text AND videos.  Aha!</p>
<p>Now we think THAT would be something that a LOT of people would find very useful.</p>
<p>And the especially interesting thing to me is because it&#039;s jquery, any text and links in the text parts of the slider will be picked up by the search engines.  You can&#039;t do that with Flash.</p>
<p>So what I&#039;m now thinking is that if it all turns out to be good, we&#039;ll move to this new jquery script and &#034;retro-fit&#034; MST008 with this slider instead of the original.</p>
<p>This is all TBC at the moment, but we&#039;ll know in the next few days if we can do this.</p>
<p>One last thing.</p>
<h2>WordPress Authors In Google Search</h2>
<p>Just before sending this out, Ron M (hi Ron) sent me some info about author images that Google are implementing in search.  (In fact they seem to have a LOT of new social stuff coming in at the moment, which ultimately means bye bye FaceBook.)</p>
<p>Please be patient if we can&#039;t get this in for v1 of this new theme.  It&#039;s brand spanking new, announced today (June 30th) by Google.</p>
<p>What this new feature in search does is it displays an author image next to the search result in Google if the right tags are implemented within the theme.  WordPress 3.2 will include full support for this.</p>
<p>Now you might be wondering why this is so important.  It&#039;s simple.</p>
<p>Tests have proven that people are more likely to bond or accept a page or site if a photo of the author/owner is displayed.  I have one on my own site for that very reason.</p>
<p>Google are now offering to display a photo even before people get to the site.</p>
<p>That WILL improve click throughs.</p>
<p>Think about it.  All of Googles search results are plain text apart from videos.  Anything that highlights a post such as a thumbnail photo is going to make it stand out from the rest.</p>
<p>And it&#039;s free.</p>
<p>As long as you get the right tags in the right place, AND you have a Google profile, your photo will show next it.  I think it&#039;s probably worth the one-off effort to get this sorted for yourself.  I&#039;ll be getting mine online in the next few days.</p>
<p>We&#039;re not totally sure just yet as to how this works exactly, and if we can implement this in the theme before release, we will.  I REALLY want this feature included, and if we can&#039;t get it out for v1, we&#039;ll add it in an update.</p>
<p>***</p>
<p>In the meantime&#8230;</p>
<p>The fifty copies only at $10 PRE-ORDER sale for MST Seven will go live tomorrow at 6.00pm GMT (1.00pm EST).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Update</strong>: Sale Now CLOSED.</p>
<p>With the affiliate scheme software coming to fruition and a copy sent to the beta testers who requested it (check your email for Affiliate Click Pal guys), all of the plugins I&#039;ve pre-released in the past year will soon be formally launched at their regular prices.</p>
<p>You&#039;ll find the regular prices will be much higher than the pre-release prices you may have paid or be paying now as a subscriber, but then the good news is you&#039;ll earn more money as an affiliate&#8230;  <img src='http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Anyway.  In October last year I pre-released the Corner Peel Ads plugin which is yet another simple to use method of advertising on your blog.</p>
<p>It&#039;s ideal for drawing attention to a special offer you might have running, like this one today.  <img src='http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>The October deal was run as a nickel sale and later closed when the sale was over, but I&#039;ve re-opened it again at the same price it had reached in October.</p>
<p>If you don&#039;t already have it, this is the lowest price you&#039;re ever going to be able to get it at.</p>
<p>I&#039;ve reactivated the plugin on my own blog and linked it to the nickel sale page.  You can go there to see it in action.</p>
<p>The corner peel is set to activate 3 seconds after the page has completed drawing, and when you hover over it, it will peel away to reveal the full ad.  If you then click the ad you&#039;ll be directed to the nickel sale page.</p>
<p>After this weekend, I&#039;ll be closing the nickel sale offer for good and officially opening the Corner Peel Ads web site as well as announcing the affiliate scheme.  (Watch out for that, the affiliate scheme has the potential to earn you a full time income.  No kidding.)</p>
<p>So if you don&#039;t already have the Corner Peel Ads plugin, now is the time to get it.</p>
<p>Remember that this is a nickel sale &#8211; and that means the price goes up by 5 cents with every sale.</p>
<p>So the sooner you get there the lower the price.  Don&#039;t leave it too late and be disappointed &#8211; the sale is open NOW!</p>
<p>You can either click the peel in the corner, or follow the link below.</p>

<p>P.S. The Slide-Up Ads plugin has been updated AGAIN this week and is now at v1.2.0.  We fixed a couple of minor styling issues, one of which was preventing some of the new templates from displaying, and the other moved the ad text up slightly to make it more appealing.</p>

</p>
<p><strong>Update #2</strong>:  We&#039;ve just fixed some minor styling issues which were causing the graphics not to show on some templates, and also moved the text up almost a line so that it looks better in the slide up.  The latest version is now v1.2.0 and you can get it from your personal download page.</p>

</p>
<p><strong>Update #2</strong>:  We&#039;ve just fixed some minor styling issues which were causing the graphics not to show on some templates, and also moved the text up almost a line so that it looks better in the slide up.  The latest version is now v1.2.0 and you can get it from your personal download page.</p>
<p>Just unzip and then upload the plugin folder into your /plugins/ directory in your WordPress installation, overwriting everything.</p>
<p>***</p>
<p>A couple of years ago I did one little thing to my blog that more than doubled my subscriber sign ups&#8230;</p>
<p>By doing absolutely nothing extra to my blog other than installing this little tool, then since then I&#039;ve dramatically increased the number of subscribers.</p>
<p>I have proven beyond any measure of a doubt that putting a slide-up ad on my blog increased my mailing list sign-ups by 249% in the first week of use.  I know that sounds incredible, but it&#039;s something that just can&#039;t be ignored.</p>
<p>My stats for the 12 months leading up to the installation of the script were for approximately every 17 visitors, someone subscribes. I get a lot of repeat visitors who are already subscribed, so I&#039;ve been okay with that figure of 17-1 and I thought it was pretty good for a blog.</p>
<p>But it turns out I was WRONG.  Big time wrong.</p>
<p>By using a slide-up I immediately pushed that number up to nearly 6-1.</p>
<p>After a week of use I found I was getting a new subscriber for every 6 or 7 visitors &#8211; that&#039;s just under 2.5 times more subscribers.</p>
<p>You have GOT to take notice of results like those, and it&#039;s been one of the most amazing things I&#039;ve seen.</p>
<p>For every 10 new subscribers you&#039;ve been picking up from visitors to your sites, then suddenly you can push that number up to 25 from the same amount of visitors just by using this plugin.</p>
<p>Considering the industry standard rate that a subscriber to your mailing list can mean up to a dollar a month in income, then you have to ask yourself just what are you losing by not using it?</p>
<p>Starting today and until 6.00pm GMT on Monday, I&#039;ll be running one last special for the Slide Up Ads plugin &#8211; I&#039;m selling a final 30 copies for $17.00 and then the sale closes.</p>
<p>The nearest competing product to it sells for $47, and I&#039;ll very likely charge something like that when I open the affiliate scheme (yeah it&#039;s nearly here).</p>
<p>It&#039;s worth a lot more to you than that though.</p>
<p>Okay, what about the feature set?</p>
<ul class="check">
<li>LOTS of pre-defined templates &#8211; originally 44, now 79 variants in all</li>
<li>All Photoshop PSDs for templates</li>
<li>No-text PNGs for use with any graphics editor</li>
<li>An easy to understand method of creating your own templates</li>
<li>A colour picker for an optional plain background slide-up</li>
<li>Autoresponder sign up code parsing and reformatting</li>
<li>Comprehensive rules system that governs when and how often the ad shows</li>
<li>THREE ways of visitors closing the ad, selectable by you</li>
<li>Two different &#034;Content Types&#034; for the ad &#8211; autoresponder and link/HTML</li>
<li>Finally, a way to reset the ad when you create a new one</li>
</ul>
<p>Here&#039;s a screen shot of part of the admin panel:-</p>
<p><a href="http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-content/uploads/sua-settings.png"></a><a href="http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-content/uploads/sua-settings.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-918" title="Slide Up Ads Settings" src="http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-content/uploads/sua-settings.png" alt="Slide Up Ads Settings" width="592" height="414" /></a><br />
And a picture of the drop-down rules:-</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-content/uploads/sua-rules.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-919" title="Slide Up Ad Rules" src="http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-content/uploads/sua-rules.png" alt="Slide Up Ad Rules" width="218" height="98" /></a></p>
<p>The colour picker if you&#039;re using a plain background:-</p>
<p><a href="http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-content/uploads/colour-picker.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-921" title="Slide Up Ads Colour Picker" src="http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-content/uploads/colour-picker.png" alt="Slide Up Ads Colour Picker" width="204" height="242" /></a></p>
<p>And the buttons that can be added to the slide up ad:-</p>
<p><a href="http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-content/uploads/sua-buttons-2.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-920" title="Slide Up Ad Buttons" src="http://www.frankhaywood.com/wp-content/uploads/sua-buttons-2.png" alt="Slide Up Ad Buttons" width="72" height="32" /></a></p>
<p>Note in that last image that there&#039;s the usual X (which always appears on the ad), an optional minimise button which will allow the visitors to close the ad for a period you decide, and also an optional power button which will close the ad permanently until you use the &#034;Reset Viewers&#034; check box on the admin panel settings page.</p>
<p>Cool huh?</p>
<p></p>
