About the 26-Week Internet Marketing Plan

The 26-Week Internet Marketing Plan was initially born out of frustration – frustration from our founder David Bain that while he was carrying out search engine optimization services for various clients in 2006, he was continually asked by those customers why he charged so much.

His clients had seen some online adverts, offering unbelievable deals such as 100,000 links to their sites for just $99.

Unfortunately though his customers just didn’t understand that some links are worth a lot more than other links – and they certainly didn’t understand that if you built up too many links too quickly then this could quickly destroy your search engine rankings.

But even after David explained this, some of his clients still wanted to purchase these cheap link building packages.

The 13 Pillars of Internet Marketing

That’s when David knew that he had to do a better job of explaining the pros and cons of various online marketing techniques – so he wrote and delivered a seminar called the “13 Pillars of Internet Marketing”.

This seminar was very well received. The only piece of negative feedback was extremely constructive – one of David’s clients mentioned that although they had learned a lot of great information, they needed a plan – they didn’t know what to do first.

And that’s how the 26-Week Internet Marketing Plan was born – on the 11th of April 2007.

The 26-Week Internet Marketing Plan seminar

In 2007 and 2008 David delivered the 26-Week Internet Marketing Plan seminar across the UK, and produced a set of DVDs from one of the seminars.

Since then the 26-Week Plan has been turned into this very website – including lots of great free content as well as the continually updated blueprint package.

We hope that this explains a little about us, where the 26-Week Internet Marketing Plan concept came from and how it’s evolved since inception. Feel free to contact us or read some of our testimonials if you’d like to find out more.
