Happy Thanksgiving! While I’m aware that only about half of Eric’s Tips readers are in the USA, there’s no reason you can’t be thankful anywhere in the world đ
Today I’ve got a few things for you…
1) A Thanksgiving gift
2) A Thanksgiving CONTEST
3) Some stuff for you to check out
| First, I want everyone who reads this newsletter to know that I’m thankful for YOU. Without you, Eric’s Tips wouldnât exist.
Here’s a FREE small gift as a token of my appreciation. It’s a collection of WordPress Sales Letter themes. In other words, these themes enable you to easily create a sales letter on any WordPress site. This is a $27 product: Click here to download… (14MB zip file) |

Next, this is the 2nd annual Eric’s Tips Thanksgiving contest!
We did it last year and it was fun so we’re doing it again…
UPDATE: The contest is now over. Thank you to all who participated! We had approximately 675 comments during the contest.
How the winner was chosen: As stated at the beginning of the contest, it would be random this time (Last year I had such a hard time picking the best comments!). So I took the total # of comments before the deadline, and went to Random.org and generated a number between 1 and that number. Then I counted down from the top of the comments until I reached that number.
The winner will receive the website that I created in this demo video: Site Profit Bot demo
| And the winner is…
Nadiya, who posted this comment: “Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family Eric. I have everything to be thankful for – with all the trials and tribulations that comes with life – I have family that is always there for me and we always find a way to try and make the best of it – always with the thought that there are people that have less than us and so the gratitude is always there. And Thank you for always sharing your knowledge and the free gift – Just what I needed!” Congratulations Nadiya! |
OK, lastly…
Here is some stuff for you to check out while you’re laying on the couch digesting turkey this afternoon…
(No longer available)
Have a great day and a happy Thanksgiving!
I am grateful for everything that is,specially small things that make this ride worthwhile.
I am thankful that I am still here. Thank you to our Lord and Savior.
I already made a comment on here but something I forgot to to comment on on is the site profit bot.
Although I realize this is not a question and answer page, there is 1 thing that occurs to me.
The websites are made around a single keyword, however,most searches these days are made using a keyword phrase or long tail keyword.For example “how to win at poker” etc.
I was just wondering if it will still work and if anyone can shed some some light on this?
Cheers
Sean
Hello Eric,
Thank you Lord, for one more day. I pray that when I am able to make this internet thing work, that I will be able to give back as much as you have given me. Eric, thanks for being the instrument. Happy Thanksgiving!
Matthew 13:45-46
It’s encouraging to see someone will to give back to the community especially in this financial environment. Thanks dude
I live in Australia, for me thanksgiving day is every day, as it should be. Between the have and have nots of this world, I am in the middle, so while I do not envy the ‘haves’ I can understand and empathise with the âhave notsâ. This quote resonates quite well âI complained about not having shoes, until I saw someone without legsâ. So, I am grateful for all that God have given me, a wonderful and understanding wife, and two beautiful adult girls. Instead of potting in the garden I decided to stick with the internet and Ericâs Tips.
Take care

I am grateful for the blessings of my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. I am truly thankful for my children, friends and family. I count my blessings daily. Here in Canada, we celebrate Thanksgiving on the second Monday in October. I hope everyone has a blessed Christmas season and a joyous New Year. Take care. God bless. Be well.
I am Thankful for God and all of the people and animals that have Blessed my life and helped to make me the person I am today. I may not be perfect yet but I’m working on it… đ
Hi Eric,

Respect to you and wishing you and your family every success and happiness in
the future.
And thank you for your most generous GIFT!
I and your readers are thankful for YOU online .

Eric, I am thankful for many things First and foremost I am thankful that GOD in all of his forms continually shows himself. I am thankful for all of the blessings I receive. I am thankful for my family both living and dead and all of the lessons that they teach me both good and bad. I am thankful for my friends and hope that one day they will be one with my family just as others have been. I am thankful for “hard times”, without them how would we know when good times are with us. I am thankful for you Eric, I learn a lot from you when I focus and pay attention. I am thankful also for all of your readers who ask questions and give replies. I have learned a lot from them as well. I am thankful for everyone who learns and passes on that knowledge to others whenever and wherever they can.
Happy Thanksgiving!!!!
Remember to Give!!
I’m very thankful for the bright and wonderful students that I get to teach each day.

Thank you Eric for all that you do as well!
Wishing you and yours a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Hey Eric,
Happy Thanksgiving to you and all your American readers. I am not American, so we had our Thanksgiving last month up north. But I am thankful for your newsletter. It gave me lots of ideas to move ahead with my own business. And I think I will love that Site Profit Bot I got through your link. That is a cool tool that will pay for itself.
Eric
Thanks for the tips and other material you have shared with us.
I trust that all is well with you and yours and wish you a blessed THANKSGIVING.
Your honesty, integrity and selflessness are reflected throughout your model. This speaks volumes to your character. The world could use a lot more business people reflecting these principals.
May God bless you and yours this Thanksgiving season and In the days to come.
Peace as found only in the PRINCE of PEACE.

Eric
I will split this into two parts as your post included a couple of topics.
Firstly Site Profit Bot, this is quite timely because I have been investigating ways to set up some adsense sites.
As the CPC increases, so does the % per click return to you, so identifying keywords with high CPC and good traffic and low competition, ranking your site on the first page of Google should generate some additional income.
Site Profit Bot and the various advertising modules look ideal for this.
However, like an earlier post here, I have no idea how we ensure the on page SEO can be optimized for the main keyword and any LSI keywords.
It is also timely because only a couple of days ago one of your lessons was on writing sales letters, so with this in my mind, I read the SPB sales letter word for word.
Well, there are quite a few spelling errors in it and in parts, the use of english doesn’t make sense, almost like it is a foreign language converted…
There was some proof of income generated, but it sort of was hard to verify if it was from one of these sites.
The site set up video, well the girl speaking definitely had an eastern european accent and with a Belarus advertising banner flashing in one shot, might have indicated where the product is from. No problem with that but with a large portion of cyber attacks, hacking, credit card fraud originating from ex soviet countries, I’m always more cautious. I had purchased an antivirus product when I bought a laptop a couple of years ago, only to find it was produced in Romania. Ever since then I receive endless spam to that email address, which is one I set up just for them!!
I’m from NZ and there has just been a big card scam exposed here, this article from our main daily, today:
http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10611976
Maybe you could arrange a webinar with these people to go a little more in depth about SPB.
Now secondly:
Being thankful for what we have and do is often overlooked in our daily busy lives. Its important to see the beauty around us each day.
An old family saying is: “Now matter how bad you feel, there is always someone worse off than you”. After reading many of the posts here, I’m thankful for my good health and ‘the lot’ I have.
One of my favorite singers, in fact he was probably the top story writer in music…probably better than Dylan!
I hadn’t heard his music until 5 or 6 years after he was killed in a car crash, but it struck a chord with me, and the more I learned about him, the more I realized what a great man he was.
At an anniversary concert some years ago, Bruce Springsteen said: “Harry wanted to give as much as he could to ‘the other guy’ so he would play one night for him and the next night would be for charity”.
That person was Harry Chapin and if you haven’t heard of him, a search of You Tube will show plenty of songs and footage. His daughter is now signing and has a small band in New York.
We need more “Harry’s” and one of my goals for my web business is to have sites set up and earning income that can directly go to various causes. Whether it be a small community group or something greater, that all depends on the work they do and the effect it has. I am also a great fan of Kiva.org, where you can ‘loan’ an entrepreneur a small amount to help them with their business.
All the best to you and yours.
John
I’m thankful to God for all things in my life. I’m thankful to my family who helped me become what I am today. I’m also thankful to those friends of mine who really loved me and helped me during my tough times.
Finally, thank you Eric for your helpful materials.
Dear Eric, It is just great to be alive and in good health with my hubby sitting beside me.He is 82 and me 65.We don’t need holidays as we now live in the Dominican Republic [11 years]Our life is one big holiday.We have each other and that is all that counts.I hope there are a lot of people out in the world that are as happy as we are, Have a good Thnksgiving and God bless you all
I’m Thankfull for having my family around me and everyone is in good health.
Also thankfull that there are people in the world like you Eric.
Hi,
Thanks or Thankyou, not always easy to say heartfully, let alone write about.
I can think of many things, people or positions I could thankful for.
I can think of many natural and ethereal enities that I could thankful for.
I can be thankful for my health or my immediate surroundings and my second chances. I can be thankful for the opportunity of forgiveness and freedom.
But these are not the things I am searching for or feeling.
I will give thanks today for the expression, “How may I help you?”
All the best from Down Under.
Robbo
First of all I’m thankful for God and my family, and I’m also thankful for having a job that helps bringing food to our table.
Best regards.
Eric, you rock đ
Happy Thanksgiving, Eric!

I am thankful to be able to see the sun glisten off the morning dew. To see the stars at night, for people far more generous than me, who give of themselves so others may benefit. I am thankful that I have been lucky enough to have the family that I do.
I am so very thankful for the VERY timely information presented on this site. The fact that it is FREE makes it even more enticing! I love the Christian flavor of the web site and am very grateful to God for allowing me to “stumble” on to the site!
I’m thankful for you Eric. Thank you for writing and sharing your newsletter. I appreciate it! I learn something new from you every time I read your newsletter. Please have a safe and Happy Thanksgiving!
Hi Eric
The truith is i am just very thankful for life – No more No less
God is my source, and He chooses to use individuals to be His arms, legs, mouth and eyes on this earth. You have provided the knowledge that my husband needed to put my website together in order that my book on recovery from cancer could reach the world. Each day I am grateful for the opportunity to make a difference to encourage others that they don’t have to die; they need to find their reason for living. Yvonne Chamberlain Why Me?

I am thankful that despite all the efforts of Tony Blair and George Bush, the peoples of the USA and the UK get along very well together and show a deep love, respect, and understanding. Power to the people.

Hi Eric
I am thankful for all the amazing people I have met in the last year.
I have been lucky enough to travel over the years (although a large part of it was with the military).
Wherever I go I meet people who are just amazing.
There are so many people who just want to help others and put out so much positive energy.
I am thankful for finding Erics tips and Jeff Herrings Article Marketing.
I am Thankful for the internet and modern technology that allows me to keep in touch with my extended family around the world.
I am thankful for clean drinking water and always having food on the table.
My Income isn’t yet where I want it but I am interested in enjoying lifes journey as opposed to the destination (Death)
I am thankful for the views of the Southern Alps out of my living room window and the fresh air of New Zealand
I am thankful that circumstances have given me all the benefits that I have experienced over the last 45 years and all the benefits I am yet to enjoy.
If nothing else I am thankful that I can post this message and emit some positive energy to the world.
I am thankful for the look in the eyes of my daughter when I see her for the first time each morning.
I have just got home about 4 P.M. from helping with the city wide Thanksgiving Dinner where volunteers took out 450 dinners to people in their homes and we fed 60 inside the Fellowship Hall at Church. We even had two teenagers who had heard about out dinner on the radio that came about 50 miles to help out and deliver the dinners. I am thankful for all the helpers and for knowing I can now go have Thanksgiving Dinner with my family and they are all well and happy, what more could anyone want?
From sickness and the economy we are having a financial crisis, but I have faith that we will be ok soon.
Thanks for all that you do for other people.
thank you!
I am thankful for my friends, kids, and family and to still be alive.
hi there eric!
I thank God that I had more speaking engagements this year (more people evangelized) and our church coop has really made a breakthrough.
Then, I thank God for your valuable lessons on Internet marketing that helped me quite a lot! I’m definitely more knowledgeable on the net than before! Believe me! And I got lots more friends online now!
And, hey , thanks for accepting me as your friend on FB. đ
I’m thankful that I found the internet and discovered the potential for profit from it.
I am thankful you actually gave away a gift with some value, without requiring anyone to give their email. Though I suppose everyone who could get to this page is already on your list.
Happy Thanksgiving
I am thankful for my salvation through the Lord Jesus Christ. He is my Hope and without Him, I am nothing.
I am also thankful for my family – a wonderful wife and 5 children who are healthy, funny and full of life. They are my anchor in life, not to mention they keep me sane.
I am thankful for an exemplary Christian marketer like you who is not ashamed of his faith. Truly I want to reflect Christ the way you do, too.
Thank you for everything, Eric.

Hi Eric.
God bless you and your family and your future projects.
I really would like to know what they are!

Hi Eric
Even though I am from Denmark I am observing “Thanksgiving Day” and I am very glad about this custom.
I recently read from Athony Robbins what he is doing each year at Thanksgiving Day and that is truly INCREDIBLE!
I am very grateful, having found this year so many great people (including you, Eric) who make this world a better place with their inspirations, guidance and perseverance!
God bless you all!
Michael
So many things to be thankful for… my faith growing stronger, my family growing bigger & closer together, my business vision growing clearer, my friends growing closer and my food getting better!
Eric, many thanks for all you’ve taught us… you’re an inspiration.
Hi Eric
Happy American thanks giving to you and your family. We here in Canada celebrated our last month but this gives us a chance each year to remember to be thankful more than once.
One of the things I am thankful for is that there are marketer like yourself who really know and understand who we should be thankful for. It is great to learn from you and see you living a life worthy of our Savior and Lord, Jesus.
Have a wonderful day.
