Internet Marketing Strategies and Online Business Information

The Other Four-Letter Word

September 24, 2009 By: Jody G Category: Website Traffic, home-based business, internet business, internet marketing, online business, website promotion

I know we have all used many different and colorful four letter words in setting up our online businesses, but the one I’m talking about, the most important four letter word you need to know and use, is FREE! Whatever you are selling, providing, promoting or blogging about, offer free gifts to your customers, and watch your traffic and response rates really launch.  Who doesn’t like free stuff?  As I said, it’s of little importance what type of product or service you are marketing, giving away free stuff is a promotional tool and it will build your online credibility.

jumping-jump-editedThere are many things you could give away for free, my preferred gift is an ebook.  In giving away an ebook that is related to your product or service, your advantage is threefold:

1. You generate free publicity for yourself and your website
2. You build online credibility by ensuring your ebook is useful and relevant
3. You now have a good reason to use the word FREE in your advertising campaign

Remember though, the content of your ebook must be relevant to your site and your target market.  Do not give away ebooks about dog-grooming on your site that promotes golf tips.  Common sense right?  Also make sure the ebook is more than just a feeble attempt to promote your stuff.  Relevant material, otherwise you could potentially harm your online reputation.

There are lots of websites that allow you to download ebooks, some charge a little and some don’t, do a little research.  A lot of ebooks will come with resell rights, meaning the ebook is now yours.  You can sell it or give it away, whatever you like.  So why not sell one, and give one away as a free gift?  Simple.  All of the products I sell come with a FREE gift to my customers.  So get to it, find out what your target market is interested in, find or make a book that fuels their interest and give it to them!  Here’s one for you, a FREE ebook called “Awesome Ebook Ideas You Can Profit From”.

Social Networking Vital To Online Success

March 17, 2009 By: Jody G Category: Social Networking, Website Traffic, website promotion

If you operate your own website, and you are trying to make money, then you need to know just how important social networking is.  With literally millions of people subscribing to MySpace and Facebook – just to name a couple – this has become an excellent way to promote your online enterprise.  For those of you that don’t know what I’m talking about, a social network is an online community that gives users the opportunity to chat, share and connect with friends – but maybe more importantly, to connect with other like-minded people who might either be interested in the product or service you’re offering, or even to share ideas and bounce things off each other.  Rest assured, there are people out there who know a lot more than you do about website promotion, writing ad copy, generating traffic, or whatever the obstacle you might be facing.

On these social network sites, you can meet these people by joining groups in whatever area of online business you are trying to master.  It’s been my experience, that everyone is more than willing to offer suggestions, provide you with links, or introduce you to other people who can help.  Having said that, perhaps you’ll be the one helping out someone who is just starting out, and in need of some of your advice or expertise.  The point is, once in, you’ll be exposed to innumerable people and resources that will do nothing but aid you in your quest for online success.  Did I mention that your website would now be exposed to these millions of people?  Hello!  Did I also mention that these sites are FREE to join?  Wow!  It is remarkably simple to create a profile, where, you’ll be able to post a link to your site…free.

If you haven’t researched this yet, get started now.  Social networking is exploding in popularity, and you need to be on the inside.

Making Money Through Affiliate Marketing

March 05, 2009 By: Jody G Category: affiliate marketing, website promotion

Sometimes when affiliate marketing is being offered to you, it may seem to be too good to be true.  Sometimes it is, but sometimes it is not. If you are interested in an online enterprise, then certainly you have heard the claims from the multitude of programs offering the best of the best.

I have done a lot of research, I mean a lot, and I can tell you how to separate the winners and stake your own claim in this growing and potentially profitable industry.

It’s likely they will give you the impression that you don’t have to do anything other than just place a banner ad or two to start seeing more money than you could ever think possible. While this may be true, this comes from those who already have a flourishing site and have built a name for themselves.  For most of us, affiliate marketing requires a little more time and effort.

Wring every drop out your creative juices and post up some original content.  Enough to keep them interested, and most of all, from leaving your site. Some hosting companies can help you with this, and many even do it for you. Having good and unique content will ensure your comfort to offer anything from tiny to big ticket deals. Remember, patience is a virtue in affiliate marketing.

Including a summary describing your product or service can intrigue your readers and excite their interest. This works well, but keep it simple.  Too much information all at once can distract and turn off your readers. Lots of existing affiliate marketing campaigns have already blinded some people with their sales and marketing pitch, and who could blame them?  If you were pummelled by these things daily you would feel the same.  Your summary needs to be simple and should contain a hyperlink to an ad article on your website. With this, you’ll be able to promote your business, and give readers the opportunity to check out other parts of your site.

Again, try to be unique and interesting, and be patient.

Some affiliate marketing strategies that have been successful for you may not be the way to go in other campaigns. It’s worth the effort, but don’t expect the same results every time.

Should you experience ongoing difficulties with your program, you can get in touch with the parent company, and if they’re dedicated to the success of their business, they will assist you in every possible way to guide you in the right direction.

There is one affiliate marketing company that I found to stand out, and that is Shawn Casey’s Gold Affiliate Program.  It’s geared towards ‘newbies’ and has a very simple step-by-step approach.  Remember, I wasn’t able to research ALL affiliate marketing companies – there are far too many – but this one does work for sure.
