How To Start Internet Business The Easy Way

 




The most straightforward way to start an online business is to sell products or services that have already been created and have resources and materials ready for you to use. Every time you sell the product the product owner will pay you a commission. This business model, known as affiliate marketing, is how many successful internet entrepreneurs started their own online home business. So how does it work?

Starting An Online Business The Easy Way.

All good affiliate programs have a wide range of resources to help you start an online business and sell products online. This can include banner advertisements, suggested keywords, a report to give away for free, and pre-written articles, blog posts and email messages.

Your primary task is to get prospective customers to click on your affiliate link that will take them to the product sales page or, ideally, to a squeeze page where you offer them a free report (provided by the product owner) on the subject of your product in return for their name and email address. When you have their email address you'll be able to market to them after the initial sale. If you only direct traffic to the sales page and the prospect does not buy anything you have lost all contact with that customer.

To get traffic to your squeeze page you can use strategies such as pay per click advertising, written content on article directories, classified advertisements, banner adverts, blog posts and video marketing.

How To Do Online Business.

When you start an online business, very few people will buy from you the first time that they see your message, so you need to create a sales funnel. A sales funnel is the process that starts from the time when your potential customer clicks on your link to the time when they actually buy.

Your sales funnel starts with you driving traffic to your squeeze page using one of the strategies mentioned above. Your potential customer lands on your squeeze page and enters their email address on the page list to get the free report, that was provided by the product owner. They receive the free report, followed by a sequence of emails about the product, again written for you by the product owner. These emails will all include a link to the product sales page. Once the prospective customer has read all the benefits they will be more likely click on the link in your email and buy the product from you.

That's why the number one rule when you start an online business is to build a list of potential customers. It means that you can send follow-up emails to your potential customers about your products and services at anytime, for free. To do this you will need an autorepsonder. An autoresponder can obtain, manage and organize your email list of customers, something that is almost impossible to do manually with an online home business.

How To Promote A New Website – A Step By Step Guide

 




Many new marketers fail to start because they are not sure how to promote a new website.

So today I’m going to show you step by step what I normally do when I start a new website.

Before listing down the step by step instructions, I need to clarify that what I’m doing is to promote 15 to 40 pages Adsense website or product review website. It can be a static site or a blog.

“Why is it important to clarify on this?” You may ask.

This is because you can start many kinds of websites. Adsense or product review website is just one easy way to make ‘small’ money online, but when you have 100s of these little sites, it’s more than enough to quit your job!

Other forms of website you can start include a squeeze page to build list, a mega service site like LeadsLeap, your own product site such as your own Clickbank product etc. The strategies required for these kinds of website is different from promoting Adsense or product review website.

For one, you can’t do any form of joint venture for Adsense or product review sites. You can do advertising, provided you know what you are doing. But search engine optimization is a surefire free traffic source that you can rely on and once you get such traffic, it’s going to serve you for years!

So in this article, when I say promoting a new website, I’m really talking about promoting it to get search engine traffic.

I’m not going to talk about on-page search engine optimization here. You can read it somewhere else or if you post a request below, I’ll probably discuss it in my next blog post.

Today, what I’m going to share with you is off-page optimization, which is all about building link juice to your website.

Ok, I hope by now you get the whole picture and are ready to see the simple steps that I use for all my little sites that are enough to earn me a full time income.

Step 1 – Bookmark 1 page of your website at Digg and Propeller

This is the first thing you should do once your website is ready. Just choose any 1 page and bookmark it at Digg and Propeller. This will get your website indexed by Google, usually in less than 3 days.

Warning: Don’t bookmark more than 1 page and if you have tons of websites that look similar, make sure you open different accounts to bookmark or your account may be suspended. I have my account suspended twice! Technically speaking, you shouldn’t bookmark your own website. But if you do it under the radar, it is the fastest way to get your website indexed.

Step 2 – Write 5 articles and post to as many article directories as possible


Some of the directories you must “hand” submit to are EzinearticlesArticleDashBoardBuzzleGoArticles.

Next, take up a lifetime membership here and submit all your articles there. From my experience, 5 article submissions will give you 100-200 backlinks.

Step 3 – Submit your website to link directories

There is an argument on whether submitting to link directories is still effective as a form of link building. I’ve been doing it since 2006 as an integral part of the whole process and frankly I’m not sure what would happen if I stop doing it. Maybe one day I should try!

However, one thing for sure is the links count. If you do a link search for some high PR sites, you’ll see that many links come from link directories. If you believe that every link to your website will help you in your search engine ranking, submitting your website to link directories is a great way to get tons of one way link.

You can either do it yourself, which was what I did when I first started, or if you have the budget, get a freelancer to submit for you. You can get some cheap bargain here.

Step 4 – Set up 3 way link exchange

You probably are familiar with 3 way link. Yes, it’s one of my favorite tools too. If you are new, 3 way link is a little too ‘expensive’ for you. The price is $47 a month. Get it when you have 10-20 websites.

That’s all I do whenever I launch a new Adsense or product review site. Even without step 4, just by doing step 1 to 3 will get your website to PR 2-3.

What can you do with a PR 2-3 website?

Well, besides making money from Adsense and affiliate sales, you can sell link and make another $20 a month from each website you own.

Easy Ways Of Speeding Up Your Website Instantly

 


Many clients wonder why their website is slow and why it gets slower every couple of months. We often assist clients in determining issues with their website and sometimes even need to convince them that it is not related to their hosting service. It's like having a great car but a lousy chauffeur. No matter how good the car maybe and how fast it could go, if the chauffeur is not competent, the high-end car is worthless. In the same way, no matter how fast your hosting server is, if you do not have a well coded and well designed website, your website is bound to open with a crawl. This article helps draw the attention of website owners to the various things that can be done to speed up their website to make it more SEO friendly.

Clean Code

The most important thing you need to do to improve your website's load time is the clean and simple programming. There are some programmers who can obtain special effects on a page with 50 lines of code. There are better programmers who can achieve the same thing in 20 lines of code. This is dependent on the skills and experience of the programmer and the logical thought process. Even Search Engines want to serve up clean and quick content to their website visitors. They don't want to inflict upon their visitors a slow and cluttered website. The short solution is to Keep It Simple.

Onsite resources

When linking to images or other media that we like from an external website, we often prefer to load the image or music or video by embedding the other persons link in our own page. This is also known as hot-linking. Earlier, some webmasters used to do this to save on their own websites bandwidth usage by causing the image to load from another person's website and using up their bandwidth.

CDN and Content Caching

A CDN is a content distribution network, which distributes a mirror copy of your website across their global network of servers. When a visitor requests a page from your website, instead of contacting your web hosting server, it contacts the server closest to the visitor, which has a mirror copy of the website. This greatly reduces the time taken to access the page and serves up the content at lightning speed. From time to time, the cache of your website, which is mirrored on the CDN servers is updated. This means that any changes that you make on your website will not be updated across the CDN instantly and your visitors will see a delay in the fresh content. However, you may choose to cache only the static parts of your website which do not change very often, but the dynamic parts of the website can be called from your web hosting server directly.

You can also use page caching techniques to make your pages load faster by creating a temporary storage of the content on the users computer. This may cause a delay in displaying fresh content, but you can tweak the cache to only store the static pages to serve up faster.

Minimize Plugins and Frills

A major cause of your website slowing down is 3rd party plugins. We all want to connect with our audience on social media, but you should avoid using third party plugins for social networking. Some of these plugins pull statistics and display information from the plugin creator's website, which may lead your website to become slow. While your page loads, the information is constantly requested from the plugin makers website, which causes your page to remain waiting till the data is transferred from there. A slow plugin may cause your visitors to see the page loading indication in their browser and may also cause other parts of your page or other plugins to remain in the queue. This can drastically reduce the speed of your website pages. To avoid this situation, it is best to remove slow plugins and constantly monitor the page load speed accordingly.

Compression

Some compression tools which are inbuilt on your web server allow you to compress each request before sending it to your visitor's computer. When a visitor requests a webpage from your website, the server will zip up the page content and send the compressed information to the users browser. The visitors browser will then decompress the data and unzip the file for display. This reduces the size of the data being transferred, leading to a reduction in speed and also a reduction in data transfer usage. Compression takes up a bit of processing power on the visitor's machine and on the server, but the CPU usage is so negligible that it is worth the resources to increase the speed of the website loading.

7 Secrets of Multi-Millionaires

 




Do you want a million dollars? Have you ever had a million dollars of cold, liquid, hard cash? Let's face it, a million dollars won't get you as far today as it used to. Fidelity Investments recently did a survey of multi-millionaires and found the following 7 secrets to be true.

1- Secret No. 1 is that you first have to decide that you want to be a self-made multi-millionaire.  To be financially free you must make a decision to be so.  This is a decision that only you can make for yourself.  No one else can make this decision for you.  Don't worry about figuring out the 'HOW TO' make the millions at this point.  You simply make a decision first.    Decisions come first, then the answers.  Not the other way around.  Once you make your firm decision to be a multi-millionaire, then the answers will come.

This decision should be a firm, unshakeable one that does not allow turning back when you face obstacles.    Not a hope, or wish, or affirmation, but a firm stick-to-it decision.

2- Secret No. 2 is to rid yourself of poverty thinking.  If you come from a not so well off, or poor background, this may be a lot more difficult for you than others.  Think about this for a second.  There is no shortage of money on this planet.  Only a shortage of people who feel they are not entitled to abundance or wealth.  Real wealth and abundance is not created from an attitude of lack, or not enough to go around.  You do have a choice in your thinking.  If you want multi-millions, then let go of the lack  mentality.

Poverty thinking comes from a lower income attitude, where fear runs your life.  Keep in mind that the FEAR is simply a made-up story based on a past experience.  We take this made-up story based on a past experience and project it into the future with the anticipation of it happening again.  This poverty mindset has got to be changed.  Your mind will drive you toward whatever it is you focus on.  So if you focus on lack, you will get more lack.

There is no shortage of opportunity in this country, only a shortage of vision.  Your attitude about money can be different from where you are currently regarding your finances.

Your thinking must change first, then the money will find a way to you.  It does not happen the other way around.  The thinking like a multi-millionaire always comes first.

3- Secret No. 3 is to treat having money like a duty.  Multi-millionaires not only have a desire for wealth but also to contribute to other people's lives.  They have a desire to contribute to the marketplace as a whole.  They see the difference they can make to the families, to the community and to charities.

4- Secret No. 4 is to surround yourself with mega-millionaires.  The old saying that your income approximates the 'average of your 5 closest friends' holds true.  After all, you can't learn very much from someone who doesn't have much.  If you desire to be wealthy, then learn from the already wealthy and follow their example.  What do they read?  How do they think?  How do they invest?  What drives them?  How do they stay motivated and excited?

5- Secret No. 5 is to work like a mega-millionaire.  Rich people treat time differently than poor people.  Rich people buy time.  Poor people sell time, or even worse, they give it away.  To the wealthy, time is more valuable than money.  You can always make more money, but you can't make more time.

Would a mega-millionaire hire a $20 per hour housekeeper, or do the work themselves?  They value their time much more than $20 per hour.  They would hire someone to do that work while they are making millions with their time.

6- Secret No. 6 is to shift your focus from spending to investing.  The rich understand that tax laws favor investing over spending.  When you invest, you are loading your guns for future profits with substantial tax advantages.  For example, your home business write-off, your vehicle used in your business, your rental property that produces income,  to name a few.  When you spend, that money is gone forever.

7- Secret No. 7 is to create multiple streams of income.  The rich never depend on one flow of income.  Why?  What would happen if that flow of income dried up?  You wouldn't be able to maintain.  Creating multiple revenue streams can be tricky however.  You must be careful not to lose focus by creating several streams all at once.  Give undivided attention to one stream of income and once that is successful, then look for another.

Affiliate Marketing Guide, Endless Opportunities Await You!

 


Affiliate programs make use of the huge online market to create some extra cash, which is always welcome in these hard times. However, if you're just starting a site or your site isn't making much profit, you might not know what to do. This blog consists of useful tips and tricks to substantially increase profits.

One way to increase revenue from your own affiliate products is to incorporate them into the email communication that you have with faithful customers. If you send out regular newsletters or special offers via email, include a link to your affiliates' products. This is an unobtrusive way to increase the exposure your affiliates get to your customers and thus your potential profits.

Don't expect immediate results. While some products will immediately start bringing in sales, others take time. Your return readers will help to build your sales gradually and this in turn, brings you the money from the company you work for. This isn't an instant turn around, but patience will help it pay off in the end.

Be serious as well as enthusiastic. People need to know that you genuinely love what you're doing, and they're curious about the reason why these products you're encouraging to sell are beneficial to you. Should you demonstrate to them that you're genuinely enthusiastic about a product, they may be much more likely to take an interest in it themselves.

Consider the tracking software that an affiliate company uses on their site. If the tracking software is unreliable, there is a good chance that you will not be credited for purchases that are made. Be sure that they track the phone, fax, and regular mail to be sure you are credited for all orders you send their way.

The most important thing you can do to achieve success in affiliate marketing is choose the right product. There are certainly a great deal of fake home loan scams and acai berries health supplements to lose weight on the market, however , associating yourself with products which have this sort of bad reputation will undoubtedly harm your own reputation, reducing sales in the future.

Look for "hot pages" that generate an unusual amount of traffic relative to the content on your site, and customize your affiliate pitch for those pages. A wide variety of affiliate marketers promote their products much the same way on all web pages of their website but, adding affiliate links more tightly in to a great article may increase sales a lot more than focusing on a site-wide marketing and advertising plan.

Be proactive while you are writing your article. Use lots of keywords and phrases that the vast majority of people will use to search for that subject matter. Using these keywords will increase the chances that it will come up in search engine results, which is where most people go to find their information.

As was mentioned before in the article, affiliate programs can be a very nice source of income. However, if you're lazy and uninterested in making your site attractive to your audience, your site will surely fail. You need to put in your time and effort if you want to see any rewards.

Why Nothing Has Happened With Your Home Based Business Ideas

 





Do you feel that you're always on the look out for home based business ideas but you never go further than just looking? Sometimes it just can seem easier to stay in your comfort zone. Our comfort zone is our living, work, and social environments that we have grown accustom too. It determines a lifestyle we accept or reject.

Remaining in your comfort zone means that you may miss the opportunity on the  the fastest growing business medium ever - the internet. New home based business ideas show up every single day in the world of online business. Are you prepared to miss out?

Step Out Of Your Comfort Zone.

If you don't go outside of your comfort zone, you'll never start a home based business. All business owners are anxious before they start a new venture. It was no easier for them than it is for you. A new business takes time, education and commitment.

Your development as a person grows every time you move a little away from your comfort zone. Consequently, your comfort zone increases which makes it easier to push yourself to new limits.

Know What You Want To Achieve.

By way of example, one of the benefits of an online home based business is checking your computer each morning and finding that you have been making sales and generating income on autopilot throughout the night. Other advantages are that you do not have to answer to a boss or work for anybody else, you can take time off and holidays when ever you want and your profits are directly associated to how much, or how little, work you do. You have to clearly visualize all of these things.

Of course, you also have to accept the possible challenges that may come along. There will be falls on tour online business journey and from time to time not everything will happen as you have wanted. But use these as lessons to help you go forward, rather than drive you back. The key to improving and expanding your comfort zone is to increase your self-image and level to what you want, then find opportunity to make the objective a reality.

When our subconscious accepts what we are visualizing it will work to make it a reality. If you stay to your comfort zone, to what you know, without ever changing, you cannot assume your life and home based business ideas will just happen. Keep in mind, that whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.

necessarily decline with age, that we are, after age
twenty-five, losing significant brain capacity on a daily
basis. In reality, the average brain is capable of
improving with age." -- Michael Gelb and Tony Buzan
