(Think of it as 5 steps easier than getting a green card, but still a process)<br /><br />Anton's course is actually closed to new members right now, but when he reopens he's adding a section on international business and in the U.S. for non-Americans. Best of luck, hope this helped.

A couple of things:<br /> <br />1. To what extent does dropshipping rely on trying to game Google's algorythm by using backlinks & PBNs? I am assuming that, for the most part, margins are not large enough to allow for an effective SEO budget, so how do dropshippers get traffic? PPC? FB ads? Does the course cover this? How do you personally get traffic? This is the main thing preventing me from taking action, as I know from significant personal experience that the whole backlinking thing is arduous and is likely to produce mixed results that don't even offer and longeivety as Google is always (understandably) shifting the goal posts.<br /><br />2. I am UK-based, but would prefer to target the US market, as it's such a massively larger pool. Is this aspect covered?<br /><br />Many thanks!<br />:)<br /><br /><br />sdzhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00590972425681054801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4194848132778607550.post-20179035830104129922015-12-15T18:41:11.230-08:002015-12-15T18:41:11.230-08:00Hey Sherry, glad to share!

I would wait until it's back open in early 2016 as his is the only course I know 100% works.<br /><br />The only other temporary solution is to take David Vu's course on eBay dropshipping which I explain why here: www.johnnyfd.com/2015/08/dropshipping-to-ebay-review-of-david.htmlJohnny FDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16606448957561483887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4194848132778607550.post-4748191628505766292015-12-15T10:53:46.276-08:002015-12-15T10:53:46.276-08:00Hi Johnny,

I am working on my own e-commerce store now, and wanna sign up for Anton's course. Unfortunately it is closed now. Do you know any other good substitute course that can help me gain in-depth knowledge. Thank you so much for your help. I have bookmarked your blog, and will keep following up with it. :) <br />Sherry Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06449451051582725655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4194848132778607550.post-54009749503916743102015-12-14T17:28:56.421-08:002015-12-14T17:28:56.421-08:00Hey Carbazzy, happy to help.

Anton just used my first full month of my store being live as his testimonial example, which is fair.

I just started a new store in a new niche exactly 1 year ago and even then it was fine. I still help people find niches through phone coaching and I'm pretty surprised when I still find untapped niches. <br /><br />I think a lot of the easy ones like most furniture are now super saturated but there are literally thousands of products out there that we don't' even think about that are still untapped. The real question is, why didn't you start two years ago and are you going to wait another two years from now?Johnny FDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16606448957561483887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4194848132778607550.post-43567657397011359632015-12-14T02:29:13.876-08:002015-12-14T02:29:13.876-08:00Hey CJ, sorry for the late reply on this, I someho...Hey CJ, sorry for the late reply on this, I somehow missed it.
