If you're trying to build your online business (and you are, or else you wouldn't be here), one explosive method is by creating viral reports. Ideally, they should be:

• Free
• Rebrandable
• Offer an incentive for others to publish

This one, by ClickBank guru Harvey Segal, is the epitome of a viral report.

Under the guise of "How to Sell Anything Online" (and it does deliver on that front, by the way), Harvey lays out the perfect example of how to create a viral report that people want and will distribute freely.

It also offers an awesomely-clever twist at the end to entice folks to "sell" the free ebook. Take a look – it's a great illustration of how to create a report or book that is viral in nature but that also offers relevant and actionable information for everyday internet users. The Ultimate Super Tip by Harvey Segal

My all-time favorite guide to building a business online was written by none other than Paul Myers of TalkBiz.com. This one he calls “Business in a Blog” and he covers a lot of territory in a short span, everything from domain name registration, to web hosting, WordPress blogs, themes, and plugins, to novel business ideas and traffic and link building.

Business in a Blog really does a great job for newbies and seasoned Internet Marketers in showing the how and what to do when building an online presence. It’s very good.

Well worth the price you pay for it (FREE)!

Paul has another great resource that he makes available for free, and that’s his online newsletter that he’s been publishing since the dawn of the ‘net!

Sign up for that here. Includes a free ebook called, “What You Need to Know.”
