Before you dive into the savings below, I need you to know a few of things:
- Time is of the essence: most of the deals will be available through Cyber Monday, December 1. However, some have a much shorter life span. Pay attention to the details I provide under each product. These deals won’t wait for you.
- Affiliate disclaimer: I’ll make an affiliate commission on almost all sales (I am not an affiliate for some of these products, but still think they’ll be a tremendous help to your business). That means the product owners are willing to share their spoils with me – it’s a win-win-win: you get the deal, they get paid, I get paid.
- Rest assured: I don’t peddle products that I don’t/didn’t personally test and/or use at Traffic Generation Café.
With that said, the time to act is NOW.
Hosting
Yes, I just switched my hosting companies.
Traffic Generation Café now runs on A2 Hosting.
Not that there was anything wrong with WP Engine, my previous host, but their steep prices were draining my hosting budget. I was almost afraid to drive more traffic because of the overage charges.
So I decided it was time to move to a hosting company that offered all the benefits without the price tag, and A2 Hosting is just that.
Why A2 Hosting?
1. Speed.
I don’t like slow websites. Neither do my readers.
Here’s what I get with A2 Hosting – and so can you:
2. Amazing uptime.
99.9%. Really, doesn’t get any better than that.
3. Great customer service.
With A2 Hosting, you’ll get a superb 24/7/365 support from their Guru Crew Team.
4. Great sense of humor.
Yes, this was a big sell for me.
And now you can join Traffic Generation Café at A2 Hosting at a cool 40% off your hosting package.
WHAT: A2 Hosting
WHEN: November 26 through December 1, 2014
HOW MUCH: 40% off
HOW: Go to A2 Hosting through this link and enter TRAFFICCAFE coupon code to get 40% off your web hosting plan of choice.
The offer is valid on all but 3-year plans. If you choose to pay one month at a time, your discount will be valid for the first month, so it makes much more sense for you to prepay in advance to get a much better overall deal.
Web Design
Appendipity Themes
No, you can’t have the same web design at Traffic Generation Café, but now you can come as close as it gets.
Ian Belanger, the designer behind everything you see on my blog, has released a suite of child themes for Genesis Framework geared specifically toward podcasters.
In case all this sounds Greek to you, let’s put it this way: if you were to imagine your website as a house, then Genesis Framework – a WordPress theme – is like the building itself: walls, ceilings, floors, etc. It’s functional, it’ll give you a shelter from the elements and keep you safe.
Can you live in an empty house? Sure, but it’s a lot more fun to have some furniture, rugs, and big screen TVs, don’t you think?
That’s where ‘child themes’ come in. You add them to your main theme (Genesis Framework in this case) to make everything look just the way you want it.
So Ian has design a few podcast themes that work specifically with Genesis.
If you already have Genesis Framework as your primary theme, this offer is for you. If you don’t, then skip right past it – you don’t have a need for it.
Or, even better, switch your site to Genesis like I did. It’s the simplest, customizable, SEO-friendly theme for WordPress, period.

Marketing Courses
Laura Ashley Clark’s ‘Get Unstuck’ – 50% off
Before I was introduced to Laura Leigh Clarke, I felt STUCK.
- Everything was a struggle, even the things I was seemingly good at.
- I’d spend a few minutes doing a task and it felt like hours.
- I felt drained of energy and tired.
- I was weighed down by these tasks; uninspired, constantly struggling.
Specifically, that’s how I felt every time I tried to monetize Traffic Generation Café – like pulling teeth. Stuck. No end and not much result in sight.
Then I went through Laura Leigh Clarke’s Get Unstuck action program (love the word ‘action’, don’t you?) and realized that what I had been doing didn’t feel natural because it wasn’t my natural flow.
What’s natural flow?
Your natural flow is where you are doing tasks that naturally suit your personality.
When you are in flow you can achieve more and exert less effort than when you’re doing anything else.
When you are in flow everything is fun, easy, and effortless.
Sounds pretty good, right?
Just wait till you hear what kind of a deal Laura was willing to offer you just because you know me! (it’s not bad to know the right people, don’t you think?)

Email Marketing
WiseStamp
I’ve been using WiseStamp for my email signature for over two years now. For free. And I am grateful to the WiseStamp team for letting us their great email marketing tool for free for such a long time.
However, it’s time for them to make money off all the time and efforts they’ve put into developing it.
I understand that. Hopefully, you understand that as well.
