Very cool link analysis tool by Jonathan Leger.

Jonathan Leger already has something up his sleeves when he presented his solid link analysis video (check this post), but it is only recently that he launched WebComp Analyst, and boy, what a tool!

WebComp Analyst is essentially a link analysis tool, yet it ties in with keyword/niche research so perfectly any more amount of words here won't do further justice.

This much you should know, and the people who subscribe to his list know this: This is yet another quality product by Jon. With WebComp Analyst you'll know exactly what keywords are popularly used as anchor links to competitors' sites and you can beat them at their game using those keywords for your own site submission.

With those keywords you can brainstorm for more AdSense and affiliate marketing ideas anyway.

What I really recommend is you watch Jon demonstrates how he uses the software in his introductory video.

Giving thanks with a purpose.

I know this is a US-centric holiday and I even had to do a Google search to find out which day it actually falls on. Sounds kinda ignorant of me, like "which day should I start giving thanks huh?"

I suppose Thanksgiving should not be a day, but an everyday attitude of gratitude. The self-development coaches and trainers may say we give thanks for every little thing that sustains our lives (and dreams and hopes), but most did not explicitly say to give thanks for what purpose. "They tell me to give thanks to God. I give thanks. Now what?" I actually once found myself questioning this.

Well, here is my personal answer/opinion: We give thanks so as not to take further risk.

Whatever things that come blessed unto us, they are results arising from our actions and productivity. We can give thanks by remaining consistent and congruent with how we do routines while finding ways to IMPROVE upon them (like stepping stones), not always finding NEW ways to do things as if starting from scratch. A person can only have so many starting points in life, so say a speaker. If we missed that one crucial starting or turning point, you're going to wait quite a while for another milestone. By then we have grown older and may be perceived as a "late bloomer". But by remaining consistent, you're solidifying your position to usher the next foreseeable milestone closer to your destiny.

Blessings almost always come by God THROUGH the people around us, who give us chances and opportunities for expansion. So they are the ones who can see whether we are consistent or not.

So next time, if you don't know who or what to give thanks to, at least give thanks to yourself as a reminder not to take any more unnecessary risk, and remain focused on building up that very first foundation you so aspired to. Do you still remember what it was?

Thank YOU for being an IMC follower.

Internet Marketing Strategy is The Way Forward for a Modern Business

Telemarketing is a pretty old business. Telemarketing got its start in the 1950s and has not changed much since it began. The laws that govern telemarketing have become stricter, so it has become necessary for the direct marketing industry to change their focus. One of the new avenues of business that telemarketers are getting into is an internet marketing strategy.

The earliest forms of telemarketing were generally used to sell magazine subscriptions to customers through the phone, using a system of database marketing. Gradually, more and more soliciting was done over the phone, until it got to the point that telemarketing calls were being made at all hours of the day and evening. At this point, the government stepped in and started invoking laws for direct marketing so that the telemarketing companies were not able to call as often. This was good for customers, but of course, it was bad for the telemarketing companies. Some of the laws that were imposed on the telemarketing companies encompassed things such as the time when they could call, being required to stop calling if someone asked to be removed from the call list, and introducing the national do not call registry. This enabled people to take themselves off of any telemarketing list, making it illegal to call them for any kind of solicitation. With so many people taking themselves off of the solicitation lists, the telemarketing companies have had to turn to other means of income generation to keep themselves in business. Now, many telemarketing companies are turning to online marketing to keep turning a profit.

The traditional telemarketing sales format is not used in an internet marketing strategy. Some companies are still using outbound telemarketing by having people set up appointments on the phone to be finished later with internet appointments. Another way to bring telemarketing into the future is through the creation of the virtual call center. This saves the telemarketing companies money because people are working from home for a reduced salary, thus reducing their overhead costs. Instead of using database marketing they just use online marketing. People are more likely to visit online advertising than they are to listen to telephone calls.

As you can see, a good internet marketing strategy is needed as the internet has a much larger role in the world of telemarketing. Some companies have completely switched to the internet as a means of saving business costs by having people call from home through a virtual call center. Other marketing professional companies are changing their focus completely to address the new interests of today's society. Overall, the world of telemarketing and direct marketing is changing and will never be the same again.

What is the best strategy for Internet Marketing - Short Term or Long Term

Most frequent question with the newbies is what to take between the short term or long term. I am sure as newbie you have already wandering around the net and have seen some marketing for the short term profits and some advice on long term.

You gather information day to day and finally sitting confused. Which is the right way to go?

Relax my friend. I will try to make you clear. Let's see what is short term, long term and its pros and cons.

Short-term profits in internet marketing are a sudden burst of sites (ready made sites) and dropping some AdSense and affiliate programmes in it. People who always teach short term teaches more of AdSense sites. You may or may not aware pure AdSense sites has got hit long back. Google doesn't want junk sites which is of no use to the end users.

People who advocates this concept talks about volume, more sites more money. They even go to the extent of saying register the domain for one year and dump it after a year.

What is the final effect on this? You may earn some on this with little effort. Little effort because you have readily available site builders which creates thousands of pages on a click of button with junk content or recycle content. One day you will find that your site is banned  by the search engines and do not have any visitors.

In short this concept is like building your house on the sand. No foundation and expect the worst any moment. If you lose the site all your work is gone. You have to start from scratch.

Long-term strategy is similar to the above, in the sense you create a site on a niche. The difference is like building a proper house. You do your foundation strong, select the design, front view, color, number of rooms, garden, fitting and fixtures etc.

Similarly you buy a proper site builder, design your site on your own, arrange for a good site header, write articles or outsource it, do keyword research, drop some good images, at the end blend Google AdSense and affiliate program. The main difference is you do everything on your liking, you do a proper site with value. The visitors who visits your site will have value. They become interested on you views and buy the products you suggest. This may take some time but the business is rock solid and improves day by day.

By doing this you can have three or four sites in a year. If you are thinking about the volume stop. You are focused on quality and value not volume here. When you focus on quality and value—less is more.

This is the method I strongly believe and advocate. This can be taken as a real serious business. Develop and grow with it.

Get your Internet projects done faster with these checklists.

There's this movie called The Edge starring Anthony Hopkins and Alec Baldwin in 1997. The story is about these 2 men getting stranded and unequipped in a dangerous wilderness due to a plane crash. There is a sequence where they trekked day and night and suddenly realized they have come full circle to where they have started! Likewise, it's easy for newbies to get lost in the forest of online marketing when they don't have a map. Cashmaps are one thing, but to be sure you've passed by a stage or a location you need to make a tick on a checklist...

Creating Your Own Internet Marketing Course In Various Ways

You'll hear lots of marketers talking about a big payout. If you want the same, you'll find they always have one thing in common: an online marketing course. It's hard to make money at a constant rate online unless you actually have your own products to sell. Within this article you will find three ways to create you own Internet marketing course if you chose this is right for you.

Product Creation Method #1 - The Power of Private Label Rights

Private Label Rights (PLR) are all the rage right now online. In short, PLR means taking an existing product or item for which you have purchased the PLR rights, make it your own product and sell it. PLR rights basically mean "The Rights to Label it as your Own". The major drawback is that they can become ineffective when so many people have access to them. You might strike gold when you secure PLR rights to a product that's not widely distributed. Just hire someone to rebrand the product, repackage it with your own graphics and promote it and wait for the money.

Product Creation Method #2 - Develop Some Videos

If you haven’t noticed by now, videos are becoming the wave on the Internet. The same goes for courses that are marketed online. With videos, customers can be given step by step instructions that they can follow along with. A different but terrific way to utilize video is by making instructional videos around a product for which you are an affiliate. After making your instruction videos, offer them as a free reward for people who make purchases through your affiliate link (for which you get a commission).

Regardless of which video-method you choose, keep in mind a video is going to make a deeper impression than a written report any day.

Product Creation Method #3 - Do Interviews and Record the Audio

I really like this method since it gives you credibility even if you've never done any of this before. Also, there are not a whole lot of people already doing this (unlike PLR) so you will be able to stand out more. For free publicity there are a lot of marketers who will give you an half-hour or even an hour of their time. Just approach them and ask for an interview. Tell them you will be including an audio recording of it in an upcoming product you plan to promote heavily. It also doesn't hurt to briefly tell them about some of your marketing plans so they know you're serious and won't waste their time. They will typically be happy to do the interview if you promote their products and services throughout the course. It's as easy as recording the interview and adding some "packaging" and you're set. Rinse and repeat with other marketers and ensure you have some exclusive and valuable information and you have yourself an Internet Marketing course.

There are many ways you can make a profit over the Internet. Writing an e-book, creating and selling graphic artistic work, or creating a software template are just a few other common ways to make money online. The most important step you must take after developing an Internet Marketing course is to do proper promotion of it from a variety of outlets, the most important one being affiliates. Deposit your checks, and remember to send me some of the proceeds ;)

Intelligent software "dumbs down" your marketing message.

Whether you're copywriting or e-mail marketing there are some classic rules to stick to.

As you can see, rule no. 8 is "keep your sentences simple". Another way to keep sentences simple is by being conversational just like the way you talk to connect with strangers.

If you aren't sure if you can dumb down your writing, just to let you know Paul Smithson of XSitePro has released a free text editor called XMailWrite that allows you to check readability statistics including number of words, sentence length etc., all things that help make comprehension more difficult. It also assesses spam level as it was designed initially for writing e-mail messages.

Robin Henry, a fellow online friend uses it to write instructional media for Arabic students who speak English as a second language and he highly recommends it. Thanks to him, you get to know about this new toy too.

Start A Membership Site and Bring In The Profits

The popularity for many Internet marketers today is to start a membership site. The Internet has allowed the opportunity for millions of entrepreneurs all over the world to build an online business without leaving home. Internet technology has made promoting businesses worldwide so much easier. Due to the trends in online marketing over the recent years, it has influenced the creation for people to start a membership site.

Membership sites are successful because of the extremely high popularity of obtaining online content. People today are very interested in purchasing information that can help them grow their own businesses, and they will eagerly join any membership site that can offer them such products.

As of today, only about 10% of all Internet users have actually purchased some kind of online content, but this number is growing very rapidly. This means that there is a huge market potential for more online products in the next few years. If you are a serious Internet marketer you should consider building a niche membership site and take advantage of the market.

The beauty of membership sites is that they work well regardless of the niche you are in. Whether you want to teach people how to market online, or share with them your secrets to weight loss, there will surely be a large number of potential customers just waiting for you to offer an online content product that they can grab a hold of and use to their advantage. To achieve online marketing success you have to provide information and the right product for your niche.

Building your own membership site requires original content but it does not require a lot of capital to get started. Considering the amount of profit you can earn from your membership site when it is established, the startup costs are ridiculously low.

You don't even have to know all the details about technical issues because you can easily hire people or outsource. In fact, the only things you are require to have are the passion for your niche and a desire to succeed.

Membership sites are an excellent source of repeat income and are just one of the many profitable Internet marketing solutions.

Advertising Guide and all you should know about Facebook

Facebook is more than just a social networking site that brings people together to find friends. It is also a way people put out their advertising services so that they can make money. They create banner ads, profiles and bulletins so that people will come to their website and make a purchase. It is how Facebook makes its money because it receives a portion of that revenue. Unfortunately, there isn't an advertising guide that can help you make the decision on whether or not you should advertise on Facebook.

Facebook is a social networking website devoted to promoting interaction between its members. You can use the Facebook application as a way to share stories, find friends or if you are trying to make money blogging, use it as part of your Internet Marketing strategy. You do this through blogging and through bulletins found on the Wall within Facebook. You can post networking news for the world to read through your profile. Again, if you are trying to build a passive income stream and wish to display blogs products from an online store, then simply upload photos into albums so that visitors and friends can see your merchandise. Clicking on these pictures will lead them into your online store and hopefully to a sale, all without doing nothing more than a few posts in your Facebook account.

Business experts can be your advertising guide. Take a cue from them and see how it is that they get so much business through ads. Another great way to understand how advertising works is to take a look around at different websites. Do you notice the flashing banners and advertisements that are lit up? They beckon people to "click here" and be transported to their website.

Often times, we hear about merger news about Facebook being acquired by a large company, such as Google or Yahoo. As of yet this has not occurred and if founder Mike Zuckerberg has anything to say about it, it will not be happening anytime soon. This means that for now your advertising services are still in need. When you advertise through a banner ad, Facebook gets a portion of the sale. It is this portion that allows Facebook to remain free to the public. It will stay free as long as there is daily advertising by companies and businesses that want to put their banner ads onto the site.

As mentioned above, media facts are not always correct. Everyone posts stories about how Facebook is failing to generate enough money to keep operating. They say that it will eventually be totally eclipsed by social networking giant MySpace. You cannot heed all of these news stories if you are trying to create a business with Facebook. Any advertising guide will tell you to research the facts but it still takes some luck to make it all work.

Corner Stay Ads - New Form Of Web Page Advertising

Peel Away Ads are passé!

Peel Away Ads may look attractive, but your ad is restricted to that triangular area either in the top right or top left area.

Now Harris Fellman and Richard Osterude have gone one step further...no, make it 4 steps! Because they have created a new software that allows you to make full use of all 4 corners of your browser window.

You can present videos, news feeds, opt-in Forms and all possible kinds of HTML code that Corner Stay Ads can read. That's total freedom. More importantly, it's totally unobstrusive and your ad becomes complementary to your page content instead of fighting for eyeball attention.

This kind of advertising effect used to be the toy of the big corporations and now you can profit from this script at an affordable price!

The Benefits Of Having Your Own Website

Benefits of owning a website are:

1. Exclusive Recognition: Without a website, most businesses have to use e-mails and web addresses provided by the ISP or host. For instance, a web address would be http://www.urISP.com/name/ and e-mail would be name@ISP.com. Instead people who have a website signify they have their very own real estate on the Internet.

2. Increases Credibility: Owning a website makes any individual or business look more professional. This is responsible for making a better first impression.

3. Self-marketing: As your company grows, you naturally think it unnecessary to represent others, and the ranking achieved over time is not important. However if you have your own website, all that the webmaster is required to do is change the content on the site, remove the affiliate link and add a new one. This way you still retain a presence on the Internet.

4. Multiple Product Promotion: When you own your website and use an affordable web hosting service like Lunarpages, you have a better opportunity to endorse numerous products from a single website. In this way, while using sites like Ryze, MySpace, DirectMatches etc. for marketing, without adding affiliate links you can guide people to your site.

5. Demonstrate Platform: Business can have world customers, so having a website can let you showcase all the work you have done to future customers. The clients can be located anywhere in the world and yet be able to see your work anytime. What you need to do is direct them to your site.

6. Quicker Communication: If you run a company, having your own website enables you to communicate with your staff, customers, associates etc. on a 24/7 basis and with more immediacy in response.

7. Global Audience: We all know how huge the Internet is, with the right content and good search engine optimization you can earn a higher website rank and get an increased number of customers from the world over.

8. Location: Owning your own website puts your business on the global map. This way your business is omnipresent and mobile, since it has worldwide access.

Important link analysis process you must know!

Credit must go to Jonathan Leger, who has presented one of the most exciting Internet Marketing lesson in recent days.

Everyone knows and says inbound links are key to ranking high on Google but he actually shows the numbers with an unlikely tool from Yahoo.

Check out his post and watch the video.

A commenter has pointed out that Jon takes into account the quantity of links, but nothing about the quality of links.

In this respect, there is a company that tabulates a fairly impressive representation of how many external links, of certain PageRank values, are required to achieve a certain Google PageRank. This still doesn't give you a complete picture just yet.

Always remember that PageRank ranks pages, not websites. 99% probability is webmasters accumulate backlinks towards the index page, and every other page is considered secondary for one major reason and that's because the information contained therein is short-lived in its validity. I need to quote an example.

Consider this piece of news by MarketWatch which I found through Google News.

The PageRank bar for this page is greyed out not because it's banned but there are several other possible reasons:

1) This page is fairly new.

2) It's a page 5 levels deep away from the main URL. A theory goes that it is at least difficult for search engine spiders to probe 3 levels deep (but backlinks may circumvent this difficulty).

3) 'Newsy' information are always dynamic. In this sense they are not influential in a classic manner. One week from now not many readers will come back to this. The page may even be taken down.

4) Because the page's influence won't last long, you won't expect many websites to link to it...not within a short period of time.

However, the PageRank for MarketWatch.com is 7, definitely an acknowledgement to an authority online publication.

What I want to do next is to contrast the MarketWatch news page with another that's totally opposite in nature. In what way is it opposite? These web pages are not as slickly designed as business ones. The webmasters don't bother about creating tables or even change fonts (it's always Times New Roman).

But I just want to show you this page which I found straight on Google's 1st-page search result based on the phrase "how to market corporate websites".

1) It's 5 levels deep.

2) It's likely to be around for some time, enough to get a PR 2.

What baffles me is the Yahoo! Site Explorer fails to detect any external inbound links that may contribute to its PageRank. Maybe it has its PageRank passed down from other internal pages, like the index page.

Truth is I have come across such sites to know there are pages like this with PR 3 or 4. Visitors must have quoted these pages, linked to them and send even more visitors. Effectively, spiders would also take notice and come back just as often. Spiders seem to use a 'trained' schedule to learn that your page always stays up-to-date and come back to take a look.

My final question is how to get 'newsy' pages with fleeting information indexed and ranked in search engines, especially as Internet marketers we know there's always new information to come up with, and mostly this is done by blogging. For others, they accumulate pages with article directories. But not all article directories are known to incorporate RSS feeds, which is the key to getting more inlinks shown on Yahoo! Site Explorer as I found out with my own blog.

2 things you can do:

1) Like what Jonathan mentioned, check out your competitors' pages and run them through the Yahoo! Site Explorer. Look out for possible directory links. These places could be where your competitors have submitted their content. Technorati is one prevalent example. Submit your RSS feed to these places and it will be automatically published for as long as you pump your blog with new information.

2) The quicker thing to do is refer to this list of RSS directories and RSSTop55 and submit your feed. Also social-bookmark your posts for more backlinks and exposure.

That's all I have to say. I really appreciate that if not for Jonathan's presentation my brain juice would not have flowed to write this. Yahoo! Site Explorer is a crucial piece of the puzzle to discover and compare how many inbound links are needed for what search rank.

Achieve Independence By Setting Your Financial Goals

You must plan carefully and always return to your plan after the inevitable deviation.

I was in the park the other day and a young lady walked passed, pushing a pushchair with a cute baby asleep in it. As I watched them pass by, I started to think about the high dependency factor of human babies. They are totally dependent on whoever is looking after them. The only thing they do for themselves is breathe, pump blood around their little bodies and, well, pooh, wee and be sick. None of which they have a great deal of control over!

Now isn't it a strange thing. The young of other species are much more self-reliant than the human baby. A newly born calf, for instance, can be up on its legs and tottering around in minutes of the birth.

The human baby, on the other hand, takes about three months before it can do the most rudimentary things for itself. And it takes several years for it to reach some form of independence. If the truth be told, I can't see my two eldest children, well into their twenties, actually reaching independence in the true sense of the word for many years ahead!

Does independence come when a person reaches a certain age or status? No. Is anyone truly independent...ever? Probably not. But there are levels of independence depending on each individual's circumstances.

We are all dependent on the person who pays for our everyday needs and desires. Whether or not this is an employer who pays you for the work that you do or a customer who pays you for delivering goods or a service, or whoever it is that supplies your money. Without that support, your life would be immeasurably more difficult.

So why do people strive to become independent?

Well, it's probably the worry that the source of that life saving money may be cut off for whatever reason. Redundancy is now in the air as a threat to people's way of living. But of course, many other things can threaten someone's livelihood.

• If you fall seriously ill, you will more than likely be unable to work. A fall in your living standards is probably the consequence.
• If the company you work for becomes bankrupt, you're unlikely to receive any golden handshake with the inevitable worry and fall in living standards.
• If your partner becomes so ill that you need to stay at home to look after him/her, life can be financially as well as emotionally difficult.

How can you prepare for these occurrences?

Well, the simple answer is to work for yourself from home.

This is about as close as most people get to independence. Of course, you're still dependent on numerous people, but the thing about working for yourself from home is that you feel far more in charge of your own destiny. You can arrange your own work schedule. If you want to work, as I often do, at 3 o'clock in the morning, that's fine, because you can stay in bed the next day if you want to.

You have to be focussed and disciplined, of course; otherwise you could slip into lazy habits and start struggling to make money. But if you can steel yourself against the many distractions you are bound to face, working from home has many advantages.

Now the internet is a fantastic source of home work. Set up your own little office with your computer and internet connection and the world is your oyster! Sounds idyllic and if you plan things properly there's no reason why you should not succeed.

What you need is a good plan along with a sense of direction.

Write down your goals....Long Term, Medium Term and Short Term.

Then break down the Short term goals into Monthly, then Weekly, then Daily activities that you are certain you can achieve.

Tie your Short term goals to your Medium term ones and then do the same for your Medium and Long term goals.

It's like driving from say Brighton to Edinburgh. You probably could do it by just setting out and pointing the car in the rough direction of north. Use the direction of the sun and the prevailing winds and the North Star at night! It would take some time and a lot of false turns, but in the end, you should arrive in Edinburgh.

However, how much easier the journey is with a map and even easier with a Sat. Nav. You can make detours to explore something interesting on the way, but then you can return to your planned route and continue confidently on your journey.

That's what your written goals can be. A map or plan of action. If you need to stop for a while and move sideways, that's no problem, because you can then get back on course again by looking at your daily, weekly and monthly goals.

So, prepare carefully, plan wisely and set your goals.

How to flip websites and blogs for cash.

If you're new to the idea of creating websites and blogs to sell, I highly recommend you take a look at "Project Archimedes" by Ben Shaffer.

Like many other things in life, the secret to making money flipping websites is simple.  The secret is, you have to have a method, a strategy that works time after time, something that is repeatable no matter what market conditions are and irrespective of how the economy is doing.

Ben has done an excellent job at showing you exactly what you need to do to get started.

Reseller Website Hosting

The quickest growing part on the Internet now is the web hosting market. Using Website Source Turnkey Reseller hosting plans has made it possible to build flourishing online businesses and excellent search engine marketing. Using a private label, you can resell your web hosting space and make money as well. Doing this can compliment your main business and is an ideal venture for home based entrepreneurs. The whole of idea of reseller web hosting is to sell different kind of web hosting solution.

But small hosting companies purchase a small reseller hosting plan or a dedicated server and set up an establishment that sells hosting solutions to individual customers. This is done by bigger hosting companies too, but on a larger scale for higher profits. Some of the firms that accept this idea are BlueHost, HostGator, etc.

For the purpose to begin a Reseller web hosting business, this is a one-by-one step of how to begin this business. At the beginning, you have to choose the platform that you want to use. There are plenty of open source software programs compatible for Linux as compared to those available for Windows. This is the reason that Linux falls cheaper. The next step is to select the control panel. The control panels can used can be anywhere from basic to fully loaded. For web hosting resellers, a control panel is available to set up the other web hosting accounts. The third step is to select a good web host; the success of the business depends on the quality of the web host provider. So when looking for a web host, most customers consider support, uptime, communication and price.

The another step in beginning a Reseller Hosting business is to setup the package and cost of web hosting.

Large Business Case Study—How To Fail by David Vallieres

When I was the director of economic development for the municipality I lived in, I would frequently be contacted by businesses in the area who wanted to get a low-interest loan (generally 1%-3%) from our economic development fund.

The fund was there to help create jobs for residents of the community. In exchange for a low interest rate, the company would promise to create as many new jobs as they could. If they requested $50,000 they had to create two new jobs, if they needed $100,000 they would have to create 4 jobs, etc...

While I was director of the fund, one of the companies my predecessor had provided a low-interest loan to started missing their quarterly payments. It was my practice to call the owner, schedule a meeting with them that included their financial director and/or accountant and review the reason for their missed payment. Of course, I would be there to get them to make an immediate payment, or at least get a firm date when the missed payment would be made.

During the course of this meeting I would always inquire about their current business situation. Did they have sufficient working capital? Were orders increasing or declining? Were there any changes to their fixed or variable monthly expenses and overhead?

Were they in the middle of labor or contract negotiations? etc...

The last question I would always ask, if there weren't any significant changes to their operations, was about their *marketing practices*...

I asked them if they had products and services they could provide to their past customers to help increase their cash flow. They said that the company's reps keep in touch with customers to make sure they are serviced and take orders for supplies and parts, etc... but during these 'service calls no additional offer is
ever made to the customer. If the customer needed something, they said, they would ask for it.

I asked when the last time a letter with an additional offer, or even a catalog was sent to their customers. "Never" or "years ago" was almost always the answer.

In the case of this one company, it became clear that they didn't have a clue about the lifetime value of a customer, how to work backend products and services or the idea of an endorsed mailing, up-selling, cross-selling, etc.. They had a customer base of 35,000 and had NEVER mailed to them or tried to sell them anything else! They never tried an endorsed mailing or any kind of joint venture.

Is this typical?

Sadly, for most established business, yes, it is typical.

When I asked the president of the company about this he said, "What would we write to them about? Besides I don't want to ruin our relationship. We're not barkers."

The reference to a 'barker' was a pretty typical mindset by most well established companies. They didn't want to appear too aggressive to their customers, like a sideshow at a carnival the 'barker' yells out at passersby to come and see the lady with the 14 fingers. If it wasn't for the fact that they has a good product that was in repeat demand by their marketplace, they would have been out of business a long time ago. The only thing keeping them alive was repeat orders, but even that was declining and was the reason they were missing payments.

They had a customer list of 35,000 and never mailed to them!

This mindset he had was simply wrong for the market conditions he and his company were facing. Instead of ruining a relationship, bringing excellent products and services to the attention of your customer base can only strengthen the relationship. As long as the products are really going to benefit your customer, you are doing your customers and prospects a favor!

No wonder they were having trouble making their payments. They had a very negative image about being too aggressive with selling company's products and services to their customers and it was hurting their business.

Don't ever assume that just because a company has a big building and several hundred employees that it understands how to build relationships with customers or how to effectively market themselves.

In this case, the company was built by a very dynamic and entrepreneurial individual (the current Pres/CEO's grandfather) and has been on cruise control since he passed away years ago.

If they don't fix their mindset soon (to be more like their grandfather's), they will be out of business.

Essential AdWord Tips

If you have started on your very first Internet marketing venture, some AdWords tips can help get the ball rolling for you. Making money with Google AdWords is very easy, and yet most people fail miserably at it! Using AdWords effectively requires a precise combination of art and science. You should be able to get that creative edge on your competitors, and you should also be able to manipulate the numbers game!

Designing The Ad

• Be specific. This is the most important of all AdWords tips that you’ll get. You only want clicks that can convert to sales. So be specific in the header-line of your Ad. If you sell floral pattern bed sheets, mention the entire thing in the heading. You don’t want people looking for geometric patterned sheets clicking through!
• What’s-In-It-For-Me. Yes, tell the customer how they would benefit by using your product. Find out what they need, and then provide it to them.
• USP. What makes your product unique? What is the advantage in choosing your product over any other brand?

Keyword Selection

• Cost. Most articles on AdWords tips will tell you about finding a balance between the popularity of keywords and their CPC. Sometimes incorrect spellings can also get you an abundance of targeted traffic while keeping the CPC low.
• Targeted traffic. For exact keyword phrases, use quotes and square brackets, like NYC Theatre Tickets or [Lion King Broadway Tickets].
• Freebie hunters. Use -free to keep them away as they aren’t likely to result in any sales.

The Extra Edge

• Own website. What most articles on AdWords tips fail to tell you is that it is also important to have your own website, with a proper opt-in form so that you can build a mailing list of all visitors. People who don’t buy now can change their minds later.
• Landing page. It is better to have a separate landing page for each of your products, just like a separate Ad for each of them. This ensures a better customer experience and makes it easier for you to track the individual conversion rates of products.

Number Crunch!

• Budget. Another hard-to-find point in the most common AdWords tips lists! You need to make a budget, as to how much you can bear to spend per sale, and then stick to it.
• Profit. Ascertain your profit/sale. Then use that data to work upon decreasing cost or increasing sale, so as to reach the desired profit.

So that’s about it! The above five AdWords tips can help you get your profits rocketing up. Oh, did I miss the fifth one? Well, the last tip in my list is Testing. You can simply never have enough of it. You need to keep testing and re-testing; keep changing a word here and a phrase there; keep improving! And don’t forget to enjoy the experience!

On-page and Off-page SEO

SEO or search engine optimization is a vital tool of Internet Marketing. The main reason for this is that SEO let webmasters advertise to users, who can be really interested in your products and services.

If you have had some doubts about carrying out a SEO project, do not hesitate to apply SEO techniques. You will be able to enjoy an important increase in traffic. This traffic of visitors may be turned into clients, who are eager to buy your products.

SEO techniques are divided into two main groups: on-page SEO and off-page SEO. The first group is related to all the methods you directly applied to your website to optimize it. The second group involves all the strategies you use externally to improve your site.

On-page SEO may include title tag and meta tags and good content plenty of keywords. Off-page SEO items always incorporate link building to increase your link popularity. This process involves getting more websites that will link to yours.

To face the task of increasing your link popularity, you must take into account 2 important items:

1) You can submit articles to article directories on the Internet. When your articles are accepted, they will be included in lots of sites.

2) Join online communities. Every time you post a comment, your signature box will appear, and it is allowed to add your website link to the signature.

With these strategies you are making your website more popular and all these persons who visit it can become your loyal clients. To achieve this challenge you must also prepare your site with clear and informative content. The information offered in your site will also have an important role.

What's Behind Maverick Business Insider.

By now you've probably seen all kinds of notes about Yanik Silver's Maverick Business Insider package.

And if you still haven't picked up...maybe it's because you've got a few unanswered questions. Thankfully most other people have the same questions so Yanik has compiled some of the most pressing ones and answer them right here for you. Frankly, I don't want to see you miss out on the remaining fast-action bonuses because something you don't know was left out.

---

Q. What exactly is the deal?

A. You're getting a special, $15k closed-door presentation entitled "Instant Leverage Points in Your Business That Bring You Surges of Cash". It's a presentation I did last January to 26 top-gun entrepreneurs and business leaders, who paid about $15k in membership fees and trip fees to come together in Baja, Mexico for Maverick Business Adventures.

Plus, I've bundled up this DVD, the MindMap I handed out, my newest book called "34 Rules for Maverick Entrepreneurs", a 2 CD-Audio program and more...the only thing you pay for is shipping/handling. Just $7.95 U.S. or Canada and slightly more Int'l for a package easily worth 30x this meager amount.

Q. What is Maverick Business Insider?

A. As some of you know, I've been pretty much solely focused on my new Maverick Business Adventures® concept. It's a combination of thrilling adventures, business sessions and giving back through charity and education to empower future entrepreneurs.

With a steep membership fee and strict qualifications there's only a small, select group of top gun entrepreneurs who can be part of this. But there is a much larger group who can benefit from the collective wisdom here.

One part of Maverick Business Insider is the monthly newsletter with candid interviews with those Maverick members, who are self-made millionaires, and understand how to create a work/life balance, while having a positive impact on the world and their community by giving back. These are the real-life people who are quietly making fortunes on and offline and have cracked the code.

Another part of Maverick Business Insider is the collective 'tribe'. There are events, community, call-in times and more. It's an evolving list of benefits only for members.

Q. Why are you doing this?

A. 3 reasons really...

Reason #1: It's an "Ethical Bribe" for you to try the new Maverick Business Insider newsletter.

Reason #2: It's because this is a brand new resource so obviously we don't have comments from members yet. I'm looking for your help after you've received the package to let me know your comments (good or bad).

Reason #3: This one might sound a bit corny but it's true. My company's "Big Hairy Audacious Goal" is to help 'Maverick-tize' 1,000,000 entrepreneurs by the year 2020 and impact 1,000,000 young entrepreneurs.  Quite frankly, I'm out to change the game of how business is played.

Q. I've seen this before from X, Y, & Z? What makes your material different?

A. I really don't see anything else in the marketplace that is speaking about not just the making money aspect, but a more balanced approach of having more fun and giving back more at the same time.

If you want to be sure there really is something good for you here, check out a webinar I did on Thursday with a few of the Maverick Business Adventures® members giving their take on these concepts.

Q. What's the catch?

A. None really. I'm probably making this too easy but if you decide the Maverick Business Insider membership isn't for you, just let us know before the first month is up and you won't be billed a penny for ongoing membership. Plus you can even keep everything from this introductory package as my gift for giving it a fair shake. That means you do not need to send anything back!

Let me repeat that: you do NOT need to send one shred of material back!

But I do expect 2 things from you...

As much as I'd like to offer this to everybody, I only want the right individuals as members in here—so there are 2 initial filters that you must meet:

Qualification #1: You must be willing to give it a fair chance and promise to apply the material shared. If you're a 'know-it-all-seen-it-all' type this isn't for you. Or, if you already know you are going to simply ask to cancel without objectively going through the material, save all of us the headache, grief and negative energy by not even signing up.

Qualification #2: 5% pledge to charity of your choice, to help convince my fellow Mavericks to take part in this by seeing their efforts rewarded not monetarily but through charitable contributions. I'm asking you to pledge giving back 5% to the charity of your choice from any additional profits you create using the information revealed as part of Maverick Business Insider. Frankly, there's no way I can track this; it's on the honor system (we feature a charity we support in each issue and hope there will be a profound ripple effect from this).

So there you go.

Hopefully all this answers a few more questions so you'll simply say "maybe" and try Yanik Silver's new Maverick Business Insider.

Get the whole scoop and find out about the special fast-mover bonuses still remaining here.

How To Rank Top For Your Inner Web Pages

Let us have a look at 2 websites, the first of which is a good example of an ideal internal linking method anyone should follow, not to forget what one should prevent while doing the internal linking of his/her website.

Mike's Marketing Tools is created by well known Search Engine Optimizer Michael Wong. He has optimized subpages for various Internet Marketing names like Armand Morin, Marlon Sanders and many more, keeping in mind all the basic on-page optimization.

Click on the "Marlon Sanders" hyperlink and you're taken to a page SEOed for the keyword "Marlon Sanders". The page has got the keyword "Marlon Sanders" in the tag and top left-hand section. The key phrase is in bold and appears all around the web page. If you perform a search at Google using the keyword "Marlon" and "Sanders" you will find this internal page listed at the first page. The most important factor that got this page to the top SERPs (Search Engine Ranking Pages) is the good internal linking structure of the site.

Now, let us have a sneak peak at ThinkBig Inc., a “good looking” but not a very well optimized website  which cannot be found now in the SERPs and therefore receives no traffic.

• Their home page title reads “find out which product to sell online and how to sell it” and no one will ever bother to search with such a keyword combination.

• The tag also makes no sense and when we move toward the tag, we can find that a huge header graphic image forms the part of the main content which is not at all recommended for SEO.

• The website does not obey a good inner linking method because it puts images in place of text to point to the subpages. Search engine spiders would not recognize images as legitimate data to access pages hotlinked by images.

Hang In There by Gerry Robert

"Don't sweat the small stuff. Remember, it's all small stuff."

Life can be tough on a person. It can be tough on a family. So many people lack the mental ability to hang in there in the tough times. You can control your thoughts. You can practice perspective by changing the way you interpret your circumstances, situations, and environments. "The task is not to see a new world but to see the world with new eyes." The person who can change the way they view their world will win without fail.

John Milton said, "The mind in itself, in its own place, can make a hell out of heaven and heaven out of hell." You will experience in life the results of the dominant thoughts within your mind.

Don't believe it? Let me tell you a story.

A stranger chanced upon several workers in a small town in Italy. Curious and interested, he began to inquire from the workers as to what they were doing. "I'm laying bricks", said the first worker. After a few minutes of idle chat, he asked of another, "What are you doing? Laying bricks, eh?" The other worker, somewhat indignantly responded, with shoulders straight and firmness of voice, "Laying bricks? No, sir. I am building a cathedral." Both workers were working on the same job. One saw his tasks as laying brick upon brick upon brick, while the other one saw a work being offered to the Glory of God.

Two people, two perspectives! Why is it that some salespeople choose to see the worst in a situation while others choose to see the best in the same situation? Why do some people constantly see what's gone wrong while others look for what's right? Which one do you think will succeed further on this great journey we're on?

Everyone has obstacles. Everyone needs perspective in the face of those challenges. Your response to dealing with the storms of life will dictate the results you achieve. What follows are practical solutions to dealing with those times in life when everything seems to be going the opposite to your preferences.

Challenges of life will come. The only place on earth that we know of where there are no problems is a cemetery. Everywhere else will be hit by the storms of life. If you remember that there is something to learn in every problem, then you can learn to grow by the storms rather than being crushed by them.

W. Mitchell said, "It's not what happens to us that counts, it's what happens in us." He was right and he should know. His story of courage (he was seriously burned and later survived a plane crash that left him paralyzed) is an inspiration of someone who has sought to become better through adversity.  Mitchell is probably one of the most 'up' people on the planet, largely due to the lessons he learned about life and how to live it while recuperating from his injuries.

Take a good look at the obstacles in your path. Instead of cursing them and wishing them away, ask yourself what you can learn from your situation. How can you become a better person through your obstacles? Someone once said that we go on experiencing life's lessons until we learn what we need to learn, and then we can move on. Remember, above every stormy cloud is a bright sun which never fades.

There is something to learn in every adversity!

Hang In There And Find the Gem

There are two sides to every coin. The Chinese call this the Yin/Yang principle. Every negative has a positive opposite. You just have to look for it. One person's disaster will become the vehicle for another person to become wealthy. See your challenges in life as blessings in disguise and try to uncover the hidden opportunities.

During the Great Depression, not everyone went belly-up. Some people actually became rich. When you see a problem, you also need to see an opportunity. One of the fastest ways to become wealthy is to solve someone's problems or difficulties.

Many successful businesses today have been born out of someone's problem. Take the man who took surplus sawdust from the lumber mills free of charge and formulated several wood-burning products from it. He saw that lumber yards had a problem with excess sawdust. They didn't know what to do with it. He acted and began a wonderful business.

"If it's going to be... It's up to me."

Hang In There And Be Patient

Every problem will go away. Either it will change or you will. No problem is permanent. It can't be permanent because everything is in a constant state of flux; everything changes. Worry is useless. Instead, of being ready to give in, just remember that every problem has a limited lifespan. Things will get better. Seek to grow.

"Tough times never last, but tough people do." - Robert Schuller

How about Communism? Or the Berlin Wall? Who could have guessed that within days, the entire Berlin Wall could be demolished? Within weeks, Communism would crumble. A problem which many people feared would plague the earth for centuries disappeared in a flash.

Look at your problem and ask, "Will this matter in five years from now?" "What about next year?"

"Worry is like a rocking chair; it will give you something to do, but it won't get you anywhere."

Hang In There And Think

THERE ARE NO PROBLEMS, THERE'S ONLY A SHORTAGE OF IDEAS.

Problems are not the problem. Ideas are the problem. Every single problem, challenge, or storm you face today has as its solution an idea waiting to be used. If you could only understand that the only thing standing between your current problem and the wiping away of it is nothing but an idea.

So get your eyes off your problems and onto the solution. You may not be able to do anything about what has happened, but you surely can and should do something about finding a solution. That solution may seem like a fantasy right now, but keep in mind that the airplane was nothing but a fantasy until two brothers starting searching for ideas to solve their fantasy. Fantasies can become facts.

It was Christmas Eve. The large country church was filling up. The air was worshipful and festive. Families came from far and wide to enjoy the majestic organ playing the beautiful carol of the holidays. But suddenly a problem arose.

The service was about to begin when the organist discovered that a church mouse had chewed through the inner workings of the massive air chamber. With only minutes to spare, the organist quickly composed a replacement carol which he played on his old acoustic guitar.

The cords were simple and the melody sweet. That evening was the first time the world had ever heard the famous carol Silent Night. By focusing on the solution instead of the problem, the end result was spectacular.

Hang In There And Be Grateful

EVERYONE HAS PROBLEMS.

"The man with no shoes grumbled in the street, until he met the man with no feet."

You're not alone. Even the most together people have storms to face. In fact, the people who are winning the most in life often have the biggest challenges in front of them. The people who win the most in life are often the biggest risk-takers.

Since you're not alone, why not align yourself with others who may be facing what you are facing? You could perhaps solve your problems together.

Upon returning from an extended international business trip, I had an overwhelming amount of urgent telephone messages to respond to. Most of the calls were from successful business contacts or partners who were waiting upon my direction for projects we were working on at the time. It was the last thing I wanted to deal with; I was tired and just wanted to relax, but I had to.

I quickly put things into perspective when I realized that this is a problem I would have given anything to have only a few years ago. I was successful and people wanted to work with me. My point is that the more successful we become, the greater the challenge. Never forget that the greater the obstacle, the greater the opportunity.

Jeff Walkers Re-opens Product Launch Formula 2.0.

Product Launch Formula 2.0 by Jeff Walker opened up earlier this year with a big launch sequence featuring some great video case studies. When I came round to it, the sales campaign was already over! That's how good it is.

If you've been to Jeff Walker's website, you might remember the "Food stamps to 6 Figures" case study detailing how a guy went from zero to making six figures online selling a board game about herbs (does that sound as exciting as Monopoly or Pay Day)?.

You can still watch the video right here, but the real story is Jeff is re-opening Product Launch Formula coaching program so if you missed it before, here's your second chance to learn from the original master at planning product launches big time!

The program is not cheap; just under $2000 gets you in, yet over 1500 people signed up last time, which is testament to how powerful the launch formula is for selling products and services.

The program has also been updated since the last run and Jeff will again be doing 'live' coaching calls for a new batch of students starting November 17th, 12 pm EST.

If you missed it last time or were not in a position to join then, this Thursday is your chance to jump on board and go through the entire program from start to finish with Jeff.

Article Marketing Software: Get To The Top 10 In Google

If you have chosen article marketing as your online business marketing solution, you are going to need to purchase some good article marketing software. But Where to Start? What is the best software to use? What is best for my business application? These are all good questions when you start looking for the best article marketing software to fit your business needs. In the following paragraphs we will identify some very important ways to identify good article marketing software. We learned the hard way by making some bad purchases and good purchases to develop this list for you. Just like most folks I struggled when making the decision to buy my article marketing software.

Key factor #1 Finding article marketing software that has the option to "spin your your tittle,main body and author resource box is a must if you expect to be successful at article marketing. The reason this option is number one on our list is because you need to be a to generate multiple versions of your article every time your article is published to either a blog or article website. You also need to be able to generate multiple back links and multiple anchor text. If the article marketing package you are looking at doesn't have this option stay away from it. doesn’t have this function don’t purchase it, you would be my opinion be wasting your money. If you are not familiar with spinning , then here’s a brief definition for you. Article spinning is where you replace a word, complete sentence or even a entire paragraph with another when publishing articles.The advantage of spinning an article is that you can submit your article many times to different locations without having your article labeled for duplication by the search engines. Using article spinning gives you an advantage because you can target multiple niche markets using the same article. If you are crafty you can generate some quality traffic to your blog or website.

#2 Key Factor The article marketing software must have a database of sites to submit to pre-loaded in the software. Make sure there is an option to submit your articles one site at a time, and automatically to multiple sites. For example one of the software packages I use to submit to all the article sites has over 500 article marketing websites preloaded. All you have to do is visit each site sign up , then load your userid and password in the software for that particular article marketing website. The other type of article marketing software you need to evaluate is a automated service that submits your articles to blogs. The service needs to have the same options as the packages you evaluate that submit to the article sites. the advantages of a article marketing service for posting to blogs is they post your articles to blogs automatically everyday. If there database is large you could be posting to 1000's of blog sites. Major backlink potential here.

#3 Key Factor The article marketing software package or service you are evaluating should have periodic software programing updates.The package should also update their pre-loaded sites on a regular basis. If you do not have these options , do not purchase the package. For example the package I use you have to sign up online and the programming is updated on a regular basis, and about every three months you have the option of getting all the new sites loaded free of charge. The article marketing service for submitting to blogs is updated daily, with new blog sites and software enhancements.

#4 Key Factor Make sure you check out the article marketing software manufacturer's customer service. If you have problems you will will need to have them fixed in short order. Both article marketing software and service programs I use have excellent customer service and they are very prompt to reply back to your questions or problems.

Wholesalers Dropshipping - Select The Correct One For Your Business

The dropshipping business is touted to be one of the easiest to set up and best for earning a profit online, even for novices. All you need to master is internet marketing, as the products should catch the attention of the potential customers who surf online. When they place an order, they will send their payment to you at the same time, out of which you pay the wholesalers dropshipping supplier. The supplier then sends the product to the client. The growth and reputation of your business will often depend upon how efficiently the supplier handles the shipping.

This is the reason why you need to know how to select the best wholesale dropshipping supplier if you want to succeed in this business. The shipper must be reliable, as this is critical to your business, and the shipper must provide reasonably priced products, as this will determine your profit and sales turnover. The quality of the products is also very important, as this will build your reputation, and lastly, products should be well stocked so the dispatch of an order will be fast and efficient. You can check the reliability of a particular company by doing a search on the internet for them as there are many forums dedicated to dropshippers where people like you and me and compare suppliers. Unreliable dropshipping companies can be a source of great embarrassment, not to mention losses. The quality of the dropshipping products can be checked by asking them for samples.

It is not enough that your wholesalers dropshipping supplier is highly efficient with handling the orders that you bring in. It is also very important that they accommodate small orders along with any large ones. When you first start out, you may only get small orders. If your dropshipping company isn't happy with that and refuses to fulfill small orders, then you might not get the chance to graduate to the level of getting larger sales.

Your business reputation and growth totally depends upon the effectiveness with which your wholesalers dropshipping supplier delivers their products. If they are good, then you and your business should gather a good reputation in the market, which will generate more and more orders. If they are bad, then you may be finished before you get the chance to taste real success. Therefore, it is critical that you give sufficient time to the selection of the dropshipping wholesale company.

Wholesalers dropshipping is a confusing term for most people. You would be surprised at how many business owners are not familiar with this terminology. But if you are a business owner you do not have to be in the dark any longer. There are many great resources out there that can teach you everything you need to know about your shipping needs. Shipping is an important part of most businesses. It does not matter if you are a home-based eBay business or you own a retail store. You have to stay abreast of current trends.

How To Actually Rank For Any Keyword With a Legitimate Search Engine "Loophole"...

When it comes to search engine traffic, which engine name immediately comes to mind?

Google, right?

Of course. After all, it is the undisputed and unanimous No. 1.

In a way, it is sad because like a horse race in which the name of the fastest will forever be engraved in immortality, the 2nd and 3rd-placed search engines don't come to mind just as fast or as much.

As a result, the strategies contained in most SEO training products actually lean towards optimization for Google, but this gives rise to underestimation of the 3rd-placed engine (according to this page)...

Do you know that MSN Live! Search, formerly known as MSN, the world's 3rd most popular
website, gets more than 92 MILLION visitors from U.S. alone?

That's the kind of traffic you get for 3rd place, yet most of us would tend to overlook it!

The good news is Dave Kelly and Chris Rempel have broken the MSN code to tap on this pool of traffic quickly and easily, so much that they are ranking one-page sites in the top 1st, 2nd & 3rd spots for keywords that have massive competition. One website was ranked #1 for out of 577 million results and you can watch a video about it.

They blur out their URLs but let me show you their sites:

MSN doesn't have nearly the reach that Google does, but it still does receive millions and millions of search users daily. After all, MSN is the default home page for anyone who first uses Internet Explorer.

To put it in perspective, which would drive more traffic: Occupying the #1 ranking for your most desirable keyword target on MSN, or occupying the #47 spot on page 5 of Google's results?

Sadly, it's actually more effort to make it to the 47th spot in Google than it is to literally dominate in MSN.

How does this work?

Making Impromptu Talks

Time comes when we are asked to speak without any warning: we could be asked for our opinion at a meeting or we have to deliver a toast at a wedding. Impromptu speeches for most of us are harder to make than prepared oral presentations. We are forced to think on our feet and have no time to prepare. Here is how we can make these experiences more positive:

1. Condition yourself mentally to speak impromptu on all occasions.

If you're in a meeting keep asking yourself what you would say if you were called upon at that specific moment.

2. Get into an example immediately.

There are three reasons for this. 1) You will free yourself at once of the necessity to think hard about your next sentence, for experiences are easily recounted even in impromptu situations. 2) You will enlist in the audience's attention right away. 3) You will give yourself an opportunity to warm up to the subject.

3. Speak with animation and force.

Your body and mind are interconnected, so if you speak with energy, your external animation will have a beneficial effect upon your mental processes. It also projects enthusiasm to the listeners, which makes your speech a lot more interesting.

4. Don't talk impromptu; give an impromptu talk.

It is not enough just to ramble on and string together a number of unconnected events. You must keep your ideas logically grouped around a central thought, which is the point that you're trying to get across. Your examples should support the central idea.

Essential Tips For Building A Profitable Blog

These days, it is fairly easy to set up a simple blog for personal use or even for a small business. There are an ever increasing number of tools and software programs available nowadays to help bloggers design their blogs and get them online in record time. In fact, most of these programs don't even require a budding blogger to learn coding or programming in order to create a simple, yet attractive new blog.

The fact of the matter is that there isn't even very much technical knowledge, skill or experience required these days to become a blogger and have your own successful money-making blog. Most people with average skills can put together a simple 6 to 10-page blog in just a few hours of tinkering with a brand new piece of blog development software.

The fact is that today even a child can easily get a blog up and do it pretty quickly and easily. But, the thing that seems to vex bloggers the most is finding ways to bring traffic to the site once it is up and running. While creating a site is an accomplishment, all that work goes by the wayside if no one knows the site even exists.
For people who are building a personal blog and who will send out an e-mail to all their friends and family to view their new blog, this is probably not even a problem and they perhaps might even prefer that strangers don't find it. But, the lack of blog traffic can be terribly vexing for bloggers who have worked hard, even if it was only a few hours, to put up a new site with some good web content in order to help promote their business or to try to start selling something online.

All too often, someone with plans to make money blogging will complete their new blog and then sit back and check their stats hourly, only to see that the only one visiting the site is the blogger himself, or the search engine spiders. However, if there is some activity from those spiders from the search engines, then at least there is hope of some traffic real soon.

One thing every blogger must learn to do is to utilize proper search engine optimization, or SEO techniques. This is the part that can be much more complex and time consuming to learn than the technical aspects of building a webpage and taking care of the blog hosting. SEO entails a number of things, in order to attract the attention of those search engine spiders and get them to index the site with a high ranking.

There are blogs out there offering sound advice about blogging for money. Many of these resources go into great detail about how to do proper search engine optimization. With a little time, even a newbie can take the info they can find about search engine optimization and apply it to their site and eventually they will start to see their site climb the Google results for certain keywords and phrases.

Identifying the primary keywords for a blog is one of the first steps in search engine optimization and bloggers must figure out what search terms, or keywords, people might use to find their site. At that point they can begin to make changes to the content and on-page elements. Then they will start to see traffic coming to their site and their blog statistics will improve.

Wholesalers Dropshipping - Choosing The Right One For Your Online Business

Out of all the online businesses available, the dropshipping business seems to be one of the best, especially for novices. This is because it only requires you to market the products of the wholesalers dropshipping supplier. Once you get an order and the payment from the client, you pay the dropshipping company their fee for shipping. The latter acts on the order and dispatches the product as per the requirement. The quality of the service the supplier offers will be critical to the growth of your business.

This is the reason why you need to know how to select the best, wholesale dropshipping supplier, if you want to succeed in this business. The shipper must be reliable, as this is critical to your business, and the shipper must provide reasonably priced products, as this will determine your profit and sales turnover. The quality of the products is also very important, as this will build your reputation, and lastly, products should be well stocked so the dispatch of an order will be fast and efficient. The reliability of a company can be checked by referring their name to the BBA, as well as running a check on the internet for information. Unreliable dropshipping companies can be a source of great embarrassment, not to mention losses. The quality of the dropshipping products can be checked by asking them for samples.

Most wholesalers dropshipping suppliers like to cater to large orders and therefore sideline or even reject small orders. It is vital that you find a dropshipping company which accepts small and large orders with equal enthusiasm. This is because, as a new entrant in this business, you will initially deal mostly with small requests.

The quality of the wholesalers dropshipping supplier will directly impact the success of your business. It is therefore in your interest to identify the best there is online and enter into a contract with them. Among the most critical factors is the honesty and dependability of the dropshipping wholesale company, as this will generally cover all other requirements in the business. It is also imperative that you connect to such suppliers that do not impose any minimum amount of orders, making it easier for you to set up your business initially.

If you pay attention to the news, especially the financial news, then you know that today's economy is significantly worse than it was last year. This downturn in the economy means that business owners have to be smarter about their expenses. They have to watch and carefully stick to a budget. Even dropshipping rates are under close scrutiny. If you are a business owner then you need all of the information possible on your shipping needs. Thankfully there are plenty of books and programs out on the market today to help you.

10-Step Online Marketing System

This is a 10-step niche marketing process you can use as one of your ways to make money for a long time to come. You may not make much money right away but you will be building a group of sites that will give you a steady income stream down the line. If you want to work from home on the Internet, you need to build sites that will generate a steady income for you.

When you hear or read about "niche marketing" or "niche websites", they are probably talking about some variation similar to this system. Remember, this is a simplified version and not everyone does it the exact same way or sets it up to make money in the same fashion as outlined below.

In order to make this system work you will need to accumulate a large collection of PLR (private label rights) e-books that you will sell to the viewers of your many sites. You may also take advantage of the many forms of advertising (such as AdWords and affiliate products) to make additional money from each site. Let's begin!

Step 1 - The first step is to find a niche, preferably one you are interested in so that you have some knowledge of the subject. This may be the hardest part and may take some time.

Step 2 - It is now time to research the niche. I use the "WordTracker + Google Trends" tool at which has worked well for me. Once I'm there I would type in the niche I have chosen. Let's say for this experiment it is 'bowling'. The results will show a list of search terms related to "bowling". The one I see there with some potential is "bowling tips". It gets searched over 16,000 a month.

Step 3 - Next I would want to check to see if a domain is available with those keywords. If you are able to register the keyword or words you are targeting as a domain name you will have a much better chance of getting a good ranking in Google and the other search engines. To check for domain names I would go to GoDaddy to see what is available. After entering the name 'bowlingtips' I find that bowlingtips.net is not taken! That's great and it looks like I can get a domain name for my search term that gets searched 16,000 times a month for under $9!

Step 4 - My last research step is to type "bowling tips" into Google to see the competing results. If it is under 100,000 I am confident I will be able to get a great ranking with my domain name. Yes...as of this article date it was at 907. So, I'm very confident that bowlingtips.net will get me a high Google ranking (with some work I might add).

Step 5 - The next step is to register that domain name bowlingtips.net with GoDaddy or any other company.

Step 6 - Once you have your domain you can find a free WordPress template (there are tons of them all over the Net) or use a free template from OSWD.org.

Step 7 - Now it is time to start creating content for your site. You can write 10 to 15 articles on bowling tips or you can hire someone to write them. It is your choice. Simply write the articles on all things to do with bowling and bowling tips. It is best to write each article around a different keyword. For instance, one article might be about bowling shirts, which gets nearly 400 searches a day. Another article might be on bowling balls or bowling alleys.

Step 8 - Having written your articles you will now need to monetize your website. This is done in several ways. The first is AdSense. You can put AdSense on your site but not too much of it. You don’t want the viewer to feel like they are only there for the ads.

Now comes the tricky part. At the top of each one of your pages (each page has one of your articles), put a description about an e-book you own. It’s best if you have e-books with covers so that you can show the picture of the e-book and then give a rundown of what that e-book offers. You will need to find some e-books on bowling (or whatever your topic) and you can do that by googling PLR and finding sites that sell PLR e-books. You should be able to buy tons of them for anywhere from $1.00 to $5.00 per book on almost all subjects.

The ad on your site would take them to another of your sites (a separate domain) that is solely set up to sell e-books. Each page of your bowling site would then have an ad for an e-book that could be bought on your second e-book site. So, in summary, how it works is that someone finds your bowling site and reads your article. They then might be interested in the book and click on the ad which takes them to your book site where they would hopefully buy the book.

Step 9 - Promote your site. You can submit it to all the major search engines so that it will be indexed and crawled. You then might write more articles about bowling and submit them to Ezine Articles. Make sure you have a link back to your site in the author profile section. Another thing you can do is make a Squidoo lens for bowling which again links to your bowling site.

Step 10 - Repeat the process over and over. Remember that every site will not perform the same. Some topics you choose will be better than others and some articles will help convert better than others as well. This is not easy work. It is hard but if you continue on and build 100 of these sites, you should see a very nice passive income stream develop which will be there for years. Work hard now and benefit from it later. Nice!
