CLASS IN SESSION:

A common question we normally get is “eh, so I just created a spanking new website, spent thousands to beautify my website, made it look cool/professional, etc, eerrrm.. now do what-leh? How to get traffic ar?”

Answer: Many, many ways. Traffic generation techniques are divided into basic, intermediate, advanced, super advanced and “only-nerd-can-understand” advanced.

Allow me to first share with you the basic, complete “anyone also can do” dummy method… article marketing.

There is no easier way to get improved search engine placement, more relevant one-way links and tons of qualified traffic to your site than by providing website owners with the content they need to attract more visitors.

The process is simple:

- You submit articles on your topic of choice, and categorize them among the hundreds of categories available.

- Your articles are distributed to thousands of editors and publishers who are hungry for good, solid content for their newsletters, content sites and e-zines.

- They eagerly scoop up and publish your articles. They also publish the links to your site.

- Having lots of links boosts your PageRank and your position in search results pages, paving the way for increased traffic.

It’s a beautiful thing, and it’s a really effective way to build your online exposure.

Article marketing is extremely effective because it’s highly targeted. Only relevant sites and newsletters will publish your articles so you’re sure to reach an interested audience. And our “Diamond Assurance™” review means that your articles will meet each publisher’s guidelines.

Reaching a targeted audience pre-sells your visitors. Pre-selling happens when potential customers warm up to you by reading your articles. By the time they click through to your site they feel like they already know you. They’ll start thinking of you as an expert in your field.

People like experts.

They trust experts.

Most important of all.. they buy from experts.

Plus, you’ll have links galore.

Having links popping up all over the Web is the stuff Internet marketers dream of. Top-ranking sites consistently use article marketing to put their links in front of the right people. How do we know this strategy works?

We use it ourselves

Search engine bigwigs - Google, Yahoo, etc, etc etc - they like lots of links on relevant sites. They eat ‘em up.

Effective article marketing utilizes Yahoogle-icious™ distribution practices. When you join Article Marketer, you gain ”tools” to help you send links around the Web and across the globe.

Google rubs its tummy and asks for more.

Did I also mention, your SERP position will rise, too.Type a search term into Google, hit “search” and what pops back is a SERP, or search engine results page.

Ideally, you want to be in one of the first 10 positions on the SERP. The site that’s listed at the top of that page is today’s marketing winner for that particular search term. Submit with Article Marketer and you could be that winner.

Reaching the top 10 on the SERP is the Internet equivalent of having your site up in lights.

No seriously, jokes aside, it really works. it’s one of the best way to get started… do check it out and subscribe for it, you won’t be dissapointed.

Women Persuasion Secrets

Seems this just got launched today… I got one myself, and I have to say, not bad =)

That aside, I’m excited today… Remember a few months back when I posted about this book?:

I finally got it today.

The moment it “arrived”, I ripped it apart, and quickly got to reading it s-l-o-w-l-y… WORD FOR WORD. (Points tend to stick better when you’re reading at a moderate, relaxed pace, at least, that’s how I do it anyway

We’ll leave the super-exciting reading habits part for another day k as what I’m here to do is to encourage, urge and freakin’ get you to to go get this book NOW if you can.

Why?

The author (the ever brilliant Michael Masterson) is one who has DONE everything that he’s written about here; it’s in the minute details that I find most valuable, and the fact that the business growth strategies he shares are EXTREMELY relatable to entrepreneurs who are actually going through it right now, the struggles, challenges, etc, etc… We get it. We identify with it.

His simplistic views of breaking down business growth stages into 4 categories:

==> 0 - 1 Million

==> 1 Million - 10 Million

==> 10 Million - 50 Million

==> 50 Million - 300 Million

For growth stages…

==> 0 - 1 Million
Challenge: You don’t really know what you’re doing yet, still finding the right footing, the right balance in your business.

What to do: Find your OSS (Optimal Selling Strategy). Your main focus is sales, sales, sales and nothing else. Why? Becos sales is the lifeblood of the business and it gives you CASHFLOW to fund your growth and do whatever u want to do as you’re growing. So to reach 1 Million, all efforts should be on sales.

==> 1 Million - 10 Million

If your sales have reached $1 million, it shows that you, your ideas and your outfit has what it takes to be a marketing genius. You have proven your worth in the marketplace that you have the ability to sell or your product sells. Challenge now is to create multiple products (profit funnels) fast. Your sole lead product will have exhausted itself (life cycle and since you’ve sold 1 million worth, generally it’s quite exhausive), so you need to come out with multiple products at this stage to grow and reach the 10 million mark.

Principle:

Front-End goal = acquire new customers
Back-end Goal (with multiple products) = make a profit.

bla, bla, bla… gives one a wonderful, real-world “closed curtain” look into the actual going-ons in these businesses and what to expect along the way. 

My eyes are barely open as I’m typing this (no thanks to the obsessively scary ”Ready, Aim Fire” addiction), in other words, I’m numb, tired and I soooooooo need to sleep right now.

Bottom line: I LOVED it to bits, and I’m sure you will too. Truly one of the best business books to have hit our shores in a while now!

Next comes the reality of “book-reading”: It’s pretty much “worthless” to you UNTIL the day you’ve started to actively and consistently apply the stuff that you’ve learned in it (classic case of the importance of taking solid ACTION), if not, you might as well be better off watching tv and not waste your time reading it in the first place haha..

K, adios and til the next time!

Later,

We just launched a new product last month and I bid a bunch of keywords to test the conversion rate for the sales copy.

One thing which really shock me is … my ads was served over 6 million impressions in 15 days. Believe it or not ?

Think about it, if you are running a business, what type of marketing channel can expose your ads to so many eye balls in such a short time frame ? Go online, my friend … try out Google Adwords. You won’t regret. 

Trying out is one part of the game, you need to know which keyword can convert to sale so you can retain them. At the same time, you got to discard those keywords that are burning your money.

I’ll tell you more about my testing in the next posting …
