"Hitting The Brick Wall...And Not A Dent" by Dan Farrell You have been slaving away at your computer designing a website, picking the right affiliate programs, networkmarketing programs, submitting to the search engines,directories, safe lists, FFA's or even buying some targetedadvertising with ezines or email lists. Now your ready to quit! You have more traffic to your siteor your affiliate/mlm replicated sites but little or nomoney coming in. However, lots of expenses. And all the 'experts' said it could be done this way.What's wrong? What didn't you do that might put you over the top? Atleast, make more income than expenses, and forgetting aboutall your time. This is what 1,000's of wanna-be net marketers arefeeling, frustration, anger and discouragement. So what do you do? My advice is to copy the 'experts' that are making asubstantial living online. What Ken Evoy, Terry Dean, JimmyD. Brown, Marlon Sandors, Declan Dunn, and many others doto create wealth online. Read their stuff. Determine whereyour focus should be. What market niche is in need of aproduct/service. Develop that product/service yourself orgo in a joint venture with someone that already hasdeveloped it. A great search tool to use is Copernic. Youcan download a free copy at http//www.copernic.com Itsearches all the search engines at once and gives you thetop results. However, the most important advice is not mine, but TomHopkins, a top sales trainer. He states, it isn't aboutyour sales ability, marketing skills or ad copywriting,it's about lasting! Perseverance is the name of game inInternet Marketing but if you are heading up the wrong roador pursuing the same customer as 1,000's or 100,000's youare going to go down in flames. After re-thinking your market plan or focus, it's time tofind targeted prospects this niche market. The first are the Search Engines. They are essentiallyfree, even though it costs more and more to get a listing.(Yahoo! charges $199 just to get your site looked at). Butthe major ones, Hotbot, Google, AltaVista, don't charge foryou to add your URL. But the only way you are going to getany traffic from them is to be listed in the top 30 for anykeyword or keyword phrase. You are competing withthousands, if not millions of competing web sites for thatkeyword, so unless you plan to spend most of your timesearching for this elusive grail... find a niche keywordor phrase that has little competition. I have seen my webpages steadily climb in the Search Engines using MichaelCampbell's "Nothing But Net". He tells you how he made$750,000 in the first year selling cell phone accessories,and spent $0 on ads! http://nothing.alturl.com Ezines. If you don't have one, start one. Do you enjoy a hobby or pasttime that others would like to read about?It's not that hard to create a newsletter even if you can't write. There are tons of free articles and resources on thenet, just get started. Write me if you would like some help.Pay Per Clicks. These are places you pay to have your adplaced in a rank by how much money you bid for that keywordor phrase. Overture.com is the biggest but they recently raisedtheir rates from a minimum bid of .01 to .10 putting many(like me) out of the running for the more popular orsearched for keywords. The trick is think 'outside the box'and come up with keywords that might be appropriate butnot terribly popular.However, you can still place keyword ads starting at .01 atmany of the 160+ pay per click serarch engines. Which onesare worth your time and money? I have a series of articleson PPC's that you can get instantly and for free by sendinga blank email to [email protected] Viral marketing is a hot topic and worthy of discussion.Basically, it is developing your own ebook, article orreport. If you aren't a great writer, use someone else'swith reprint rights or even better master rights. Byplacing this ebook or report in many different hands youare creating a viral network. If written well with qualitycontent, they will pass it on as a free bonus to buy aproduct, or enticement to subscribe to their ezine oraffiliate program, creating a steady and increasing amountof targeted traffic for the links you have in thepublication. This takes time, thought and effort but thisis what some of the top marketers do to get consistenttraffic and sales. The other method the 'guru's use to generate a steady flowof targeted traffic is affiliate programs. You can get1,000's selling your products for little to no expense.After all, you can only place so many ezine ads, classifiedads or keyword ads with the pay per click's.
