Subject: Standing Out - In A Crowded Internet

Last updated May 2026 · By Social Stardom

Hi {Name},

You should start seeing some traffic from Google

now - if you followed the advice in my report.

You should also start getting some shares

if you followed the advice I gave you about

incentivizing social shares.

However, it's my guess that you are not seeing

much success with collecting emails...yet.

You may have even followed my advice and

used the state-of-the-art foolproof email nabbing

tool that I recommended in my last email.

So, why are you having trouble?

Let's put ourselves in the shoes of Joe Q. Public

and pretend for example that your website is

about building a better mousetrap.

Here are three examples of what might happen

when Joe Q. Public...

(who is interested in better mousetraps)

clicks on a link that says

"5 ways to build a better mousetrap".

1. He clicks on the link in Google, and is happy

to find the 5 fresh ideas you offer on that page.

2. He clicks on the link in Facebook and also

enjoys your webpage about mousetraps.

3. He clicks on a link that asks for his email

BEFORE you give him any advice on mouse

traps - so he clicks the back button and

never comes back to your web page

again!

The first two examples helped you earn the

trust of Joe Q. Public but, they didn't really

do much for you because he probably will

forget about your awesome website and

have trouble finding it again - if he doesn't

find you on Google or see your link shared

by a friend on Facebook, again.

The third example just pissed JQP off and

thus he is likely to remember your website

link - but for all the wrong reasons.

===============================

Let's try a different (and better) scenario

Let's imagine the link Joe Q. Public found

took him to a page that listed five great

ideas and earned his trust.

Let's also imagine that on that page you

also have a link that offers ANOTHER 5

great ideas.

This second link could ask Joe Q. Public

for his email address before delivering the

solutions...

...and it would likely be successful because

you have already earned Joe Q. Publics trust

by providing the first 5 great solutions!

This begs the question, "How best do

you make the second offer?"

Many people fail, because they try

the old-school method of making a

clickable image in the sidebar to

promote this second offer.

Joe Q. Public probably won't click

on this link because this link looks like an

advertisement - which experience has

taught him - might take him to a different

and un-trusted website.

Joe Q. Public doesn't want to follow an ad

link elsewhere when it's YOU that he is

beginning to trust about all things

to do with mousetraps!

This is why you need to create a link that

appears to be more integrated with your

trusted website.

This link should also have the same look

and feel as other trusted websites like the

NYTimes, The Huffington Post, Wikipedia,

and etc.

If you haven't already noticed - these

big-name trusted websites have been

using something called "Attention Bars"

lately - to showcase the links that they

want the public to notice, instead of

advertisement style links.

==============================

Unfortunately, publishers like you and I,

that would like start utilizing this

advantageous Attention Bar strategy,

have had trouble finding plug-ins for our

WordPress websites that don't slow down

the websites load speeds - and thus negatively

effecting our SEO ranking and visitor

experience.

Thankfully, I have discovered a solution!

Attention Monkey

Follow the link to the Attention Monkey

website, and you will discover how and

why this attention grabbing bar works

so much better at getting Joe Q. Public

to visit important links on your website.

To be a truly successful online publisher

one needs to understand a bit about

human psychology, because real people

perceive things very differently.

Attention Monkey's attention bars play

on the publics best perceptions!
