Best for Last – July 3, 2009

Every week I read a lot of stuff online – blogs, articles, reviews, etc. I see my share of the good, the bad and occassionally even the ugly. But oh so often I come across something so great that I want to share it with everyone I know.

This being the Independence Day in the US, I’m including free downloads and other goodies:

Jim Goolsby’s Copy Made Easy – if you’re interested in online direct response copywriting, this website is a must-see.  The blogposts are great, but since it’s the goodies addition, make sure to sign up for a free Sales Copy Generator software (and a bunch of other great stuff, but I’m not going to ruin the surprise for you).

Authority Black Book – for DIY social media marketing, download-read-follow this free ebook ranked #1 by Mashable. The updated 2009 edition talks about creating serious traffic to your site by using power linking and social marketing.

Business Services Giveaway – BizCentral USA is running a contest with prizes totalling  over $100,000 in business services to small businesses. Actually, there are two contests – “Start a Business” and “Business Makeover”.  So whether you’re looking for a chance to start a new business or grow the existing one, this is a fantastic opportunity.

Thriving on Less: Simplifying in a Tough Economy – this is one of these cases when you wonder whether it’s a coincidence or some kind of a sign… Yesterday I added Leo Babauta’s book The Power of Less to my Amazon Wish List (so what it’s 10 pages long by now). And today I found out that he’s giving away a free companion e-book called Thriving on Less. This is really a no-strings attached offer – no e-mail address required.

Happy Reading!
