Many of our site visitors have been asking us to write a review
on this and since the numbers of requests are quite overwhelming, we
would accommodate their requests here today.
Today’s review is not really focused on a program, it is actually
a book written by one of Malaysian top internet entrepreneurs that
goes by the name of Dr Irfan Khairi. Dr Irfan Khairi is an
exceptional man; he made his first million by Malaysian standard at
the young age of 25 back in 2002 all from the internet. The book
that he has written and published can be considered as his way of
sharing his successful secrets with the public; they have to pay of
course. The book is published in 2 languages, English and Malaysian
and currently selling at Malaysian Ringgit $39.90 a copy. It is
currently available in major bookstores all around Malaysia and you
may also purchase the book online at Dr Irfan Khairi’s website.
I could still remember the first time I saw the book in MPH a few
years back. The book is beautifully packaged and the title itself is
begging customers to buy them. ‘Secrets of Internet Millionaires
Revealed’ or ‘Rahsia Jutawan-Jutawan Internet Terbongkar’ in
Malay. Sounds impressive, isn’t it? There’s no doubt that Dr Irfan
Khairi has done pretty well in packaging his book with its nice
cover and a killer title to boot. If you want to publish books and
market it big time, you may look at Dr Irfan Khairi’s book for an
example on how one or two simple touches could really make all the
difference.
Let’s put the cover aside and take a look at what is inside. From
the beginning to the end, Dr Irfan Khairi has provided everything
you need to know about conducting business online. He has covered
pretty much all the basics and I’m not going to waste your time with
all the teeny weenie details. Dr Irfan Khairi has indeed revealed
most of the secrets used by internet millionaires in his book. Now
if we look at other eBooks that we could find in the internet and
compare them with Dr Irfan Khairi’s published book, I can seriously
say that Dr Irfan Khairi’s book is an incredible value for money.
Selling at Malaysian Ringgit $39.90, that is more or less equivalent
to US Dollar $12.00! That’s a huge bargain!
The only thing I found lacking with Dr Irfan Khairi’s book is the
lack of information and know-how in generating traffic for any
online business. This is especially important since internet users
nowadays are a brand new breed of Web 2.0 generation. Most online
business entrepreneurs took this for granted and ended up with poor
or zero sales and conversions after establishing their businesses
online for a couple of months. Generating traffic should never be
taken lightly by serious internet entrepreneurs and marketers unless
of course you are a well known celebrity such as Joel Comm or Dr
Irfan Khairi himself! Celebrities who have become household names
can practically make money online without having to bother about
generating traffic to their money making websites.
Let us take a look at Dr Irfan Khairi for an example. He has been
invited to appear in many local Malaysian television shows and
what’s more, he himself is a regular columnist on a few major local
magazines! In another word, Dr Irfan Khairi is a master in the art
of offline media promotion. No other Malaysian internet entrepreneur
dominates the offline media any better than Dr Irfan Khairi. It is
easy for him to sell his products online since he has all ready won
hands down in his offline promotion! I sincerely believe that Dr
Irfan Khairi is no longer targeting the whole wide world nowadays.
I’ve been snooping around for quite some time now and I do believe
that Dr Irfan Khairi is concentrating more on the local Malaysian
scene. I don’t think he’s that greedy, he has made his million long
time ago. The reason why I’m saying this is because I have not seen
any significant improvement in his web statistics. As of time of
writing, Dr Irfan Khairi’s main flagship (RahsiaInternet Dot Com) is
ranked 300,521 in Alexa! That is hardly impressive for an internet
millionaire, isn’t it? He is an experienced internet marketer and he
could easily generate traffic for his website anytime he wants but I
believe this is no longer his concerns anymore. Feedbacks given by
friends and colleagues also strengthen my suspicion. It seems that
Dr Irfan Khairi is a changed man nowadays, he is more interested in
helping others in achieving what he have achieved long time ago. If
this is true, I pray and hope that Dr Irfan Khairi would be able to
turn more and more Malaysians into successful online business
entrepreneurs just like him. I would love to see that!
So what’s that got to do with my review today? Simple! If you are
as popular and well known as Dr Irfan Khairi or Joel Comm, you don’t
have to worry about promoting your online business through online
marketing and promotions. But what are the chances that you would be
just as famous? Probably zero just like any other bum on the street.
Hence, you need to work double hard to promote your online
businesses that would later
generate more traffic for your websites.
When you have more traffic, your chances of generating higher sales
and conversions would be better theoretically. As I have said
before, please do not underestimate this all important factor when
you are involved in online business.
Overall, I would give Dr Irfan’s Secret of Internet Millionaires
Revealed book a 4 stars rating. It is more or less complete but
requires a little bit more work on the part of traffic generation. I
would highly recommend his book for knowledge seekers and beginners
in online businesses. For experienced internet marketers and money
makers, you may go for the book too if you like but you need to find
another good source of information on traffic generation.
Before I go, I’m sure that there are many of you that have bought
the book some time back. What do you think of it? Is it helpful and
have you found success with it? Please place your vote down below.
