A good 101 for Internet Marketing Newbie's. Nothing for Veterans., February 8, 2007
This review is from: Street Smart Internet Marketing - Tips, Tools, Tactics & Techniques to Market Your Product, Service, Business or Ideas Online (Paperback)
The book is about 300 pages and talks about a lot of different subjects of Internet marketing. From website and content development, email marketing, paid search to affiliate marketing.
This is a lot of ground to cover and a lot of books that are as long as this one and only cover one of the subjects are often considered "too general".
This is not necessarily a bad thing, if you see the book at what it is. A brief introduction to the aspect of Internet marketing. An Internet marketing 101 so to speak.
Good for newbies, but nothing for marketers with average or good Internet marketing experience.
Once you got the general picture, go ahead and invest into books that are specific to the subjects you are most interested in.

Justin delivered the goods, April 17, 2007
This review is from: Street Smart Internet Marketing - Tips, Tools, Tactics & Techniques to Market Your Product, Service, Business or Ideas Online (Paperback)
I am amazed by the sheer volume of information Justin provided in this book.
When I first opened it and saw that it was so long I thought there would
be fluff and filler. To my surprise it was concise, well written, and to
the point. There was no information that wasn't important to making money
online.
Justin separated the book into sections that actually made sense! In each
section he explained the concepts thoroughly and in a way that even a
beginner could understand.
I wish that I had a resource like this when I started online. It would
have shortened my learning curve by many months.
Even now, I keep it handy so that I can refer back to certain sections as
I am faced with a dilemma or problem. You had some resources in here that
even I hadn't heard about!
I think my favorite part though is the section on driving traffic to a
website. It is easy to read and understand and has more tips and tricks
than I've come across in many other more expensive books.
I implemented just two of the online traffic generation techniques he
talked about and I doubled my traffic in just a couple of weeks.
Thanks so much for putting such a significant amount of time and effort
into a resource that will be valuable for a long time.

A BASIC INTRODUCTION TO INTERNET MARKETING, June 20, 2008
This review is from: Street Smart Internet Marketing - Tips, Tools, Tactics & Techniques to Market Your Product, Service, Business or Ideas Online (Paperback)
Street Smart Internet Marketing is nothing more than a BASIC introduction to internet marketing perfect for absolute newbies. The longest chapter is a mere 10 pages. Most of the info in this book you can find online for free. It is NOT a how-to book, just a BROAD OVERVIEW!!!!
Search Engine Optimization: Your Visual Blueprint for Effective Internet Marketing by kristopher B. Jones is a practical how-to book on internet marketing. I think justin wrote the five star reviews listed here on amazon. If you read the user testimonials on the authors website you will notice that they are an exact copy of the five star reviews listed here on amazon.
