"How to use Updatez to Get Free and Cheap Stuff"
 
Here's a great way to use Updatez for find all sorts of cheap and free stuff:

Use it to monitor Craiglist!

1 First, go to www.Craigslist.com for your area.

2 Then do a search for stuff you're looking for...Maybe a "bike" for your kid.

3 After you're taken to the CL SERPs, use the drop-down box for "in" and choose:
"free stuff"

You'll get a URL like this:
http://denver.craigslist.org/search/zip?query=bike&srchType=A&minAsk=&maxAsk=

Just enter it into Updatez and it will track CL for anyone giving away a bike.

Use your keyword expertise and also enter a URL for: bicycle, etc.

Also, CL will let you use a negative operator...For example, maybe you want to remove any listing that contain "exercise".

In the search box enter:
bike -excercise

click the search and copy the URL.

People don't give away bikes every day, but they do give away bikes.

And this is the power of Updatez. Instead of you having to check CL every day, only to be dissapponted, Updatez will tell you when something new has been posted.

You can find all sorts of free stuff this way...From refrigerators to furniture, computer desks, glass, mirrors, etc.

And it's not only limited to free stuff. If you have a hobby, collect antiques, etc, use Updatez to track just about anything...And let Updatez keep you notified of when something new is listed.

Or use Updatez and Craigslist to find free stuff you can turn around and sell at a yardsale or ebay for some extra cash.


Plus, if something is free, or at a good price, being first is very important. And Updatez gives you another advantage and helps you be first.


The only "catch" is, you have to add some CL search URLs and remember to start Tuelz when you start your PC...Then sit back and let Updatez find all sorts of stuff for you.



-Boom boom boom boom.

   Being that I market an autoresponder.

I used to set updatez to track changes on my competitors pages.
Namely aweber, getresponse..

other than being an excellent backup for showing small changes on your
own pages, great for competitors as well.

Here's another quick tip for Updatez:

Use Updatez to track the biggest, most popular blogs and sites that allow comments in your niches to see when new posts are made so you can be one of the first to comment. The folks that comment early will create a lot more clicks on their links than the latter commenters.

You will probably neeed to tweak the Udpatez "sensitivity" for each blog to get the best results.

   I never really used updatez before but you have given me so many ideas which I am going to try out in the next few days. If they work as I suspect they will I will post them for everyone to benefit.

Hey Graham,

Actually my favorite use for Updatez is for non-IM stuff. For example, I'm a Jeff Beck fan. He has a web site, but only updates it a few times a year. I like to use Updatez to monitor his site and let me know when there's any changes instead of checking the site over and over.

Updatez also acts like your own "mini Wayback Machine". Set it to keep 12 variations, update once every-so-often, and it will keep a history of changes to a web page.

   That it so cool and sort of on the lines I was thinking. Jeff Beck is one of the greatest guitarists of all time.

Personally I am a Clapton Fan and of course Dave Gilmour but I am splitting hairs as to who's the best it depends on your personal style but also to some extent your age.

I still cherish my LP collection although it's greatly diminished thanks to emigrating and losing about 8 boxes (packing cases of music). I used to manage a record shop so had signed copies worth today probably thousands. Still not worth lamenting over lost opportunities.

Have you ever seen JB play I saw him at Drury Lane in London in the Early 80's at the Secret Policeman Gigs which he did with EC that was one of my greatest musical memories and there have been many.

Hey Graham,

Jeff Beck is the best. Glad I could be here to help.

I have my old vinyl too. I like vinyl or Ipod, never cared too much for the stuff inbewteen.

I saw Jeff Beck in LA with Stevie Ray Vaughn. It's all over Youtube...JB and SRV only played two cities, LA and NY. It was cool.

Another use for Updatez is checking forums to see how much traffic they get. One example is the Warrior WSO forum. I've set Updatez to track and record how long WSOs stay on the first page.

Hi,

You can get a free version of Updatez that's limited to following 10 pages here:
http://dombom.com/tuelz2.0_LTD_3-1-2011.zip

Do NOT click up Updatez directly. Instead, click on Tuelz.exe, wait for it to open in your browser, then click on any Updatez link.

   Thank you Kurt. I will try it and if it fits my needs I will be happy to buy a license to check an unlimited number of pages. I actually plan to use it to regularly check if my sites have been hacked or not.

Thanks again!
