In this session, I talk about the recent changes to Market Samurai and what the main effects are, and what I’m doing about it. I also go into some new stuff I haven’t covered on the topic of how to write a good product review- this is a good one, listen to it!
Stuff I mention in this Podcast:
–Long Tail Pro -Spencer Haw’s awesome keyword tool that has taken the place of Market Samurai
–Super useful comparison table plugin– this is what I use to create comparison tables in 2 minutes

February 17, 2012Will be listening to that soon.
If you don’t cover it in the podcast what do you think of SECockpit?
Nate
February 18, 2012I think SEcockpit is really good, but for what I want to find out when doing keyword research, it has a lot more features than I need so Long Tail Pro has been the perfect replacement for Market Samurai for me.
Irwin
February 17, 2012Nate – same question; SEcockpit looks bada$$, but it’s crazy expensive. What are your thoughts on the program?
Nate
February 18, 2012Irwin- you can see my reply above to Joe.
Joe
February 21, 2012Can you post that link to the fiverr link wheel gig please?
Nate
March 8, 2012Sure Joe- here’s the link…
Joe
March 8, 2012Thanks Nate. Looks good, will give them a try with some articles from Article Builder.
Larry
February 29, 2012Can you post the name of the Review writing service that you mention in the podcast. Maybe a link too?
Nate
March 8, 2012Sure- here’s the link…
Matt
March 6, 2012Actually, I came here looking for the same thing Joe just asked you about…
Any chance you can post the gig here please Nate?
Nate
March 8, 2012Yeah it’s right here…
Matt
March 6, 2012How are you finding the OptinSkin plugin, I am thinking it will really help me collect more subscribers, have you seen any change to your subscriber rate?
That would probably make a good podcast…
Nate
March 8, 2012Matt- I really like it so far. It’s getting several subs a day but my popup still gets the vast majority. I know people say they hate popups but they work so well you can’t ignore them.

April 1, 2012Great work !
It would be nice if you start including text transcripts along with your Podcasts.
Nate
April 2, 2012Yeah I know I need to get around to doing that- thanks for the comment.

May 8, 2012Hi Nate,
Love your podcasts and blog. A quick question about Longtail Pro…do you have any problems with it as I’ve done a bit of research before purchasing and found that it is very slow, bans your IP with even the simplest of searches and sometimes brings back zero values.
I just thought I’d ask before purchasing from someone who knows what they’re talking about!
Nate
May 9, 2012Ryan- To be honest I have gone back to mostly using Market Samurai- It’s just way faster and while it doesn’t give you SEOTC results from Google, it does give you the SEO competition from the top ten of Google and that’s the most valuable thing to me anyways.

May 9, 2012Hi Nate,
Thanks very much for the quick response. I’m still on the fence about both at the moment and am still in the trial of Market Samurai but I do like the ease of Longtail Pro too.
I guess it’s six of one and half a dozen of another. I’ve heard so many good things about Market Samurai it’s hard to ignore them really.
I guess I’ll sleep on it.
Keep up the excellent blog, it’s really inspiring to hear about the methods and your success. I’ve only every earned 19 English pence online so far but I hope this increases!
Nate
May 10, 2012It will as long as you keep working at it.
