Blog To Create Income.

Posted on by

Blogs are a very easy way to create an income online. They are very simple to set up and because content is regularly updated, search engines give them more importance. This is a valuable asset as this becomes the engine for future “traffic ” that drives your monetizing efforts.

A blog can be an excellent foundation to create income on line, both through advertising on site, together with what can be promoted through it. You may have heard that the money is in the list, well this is true. Focus on building a large targeted list of potential prospects (Names and Email addresses) as the generator of your future blog sourced income. The life blood to your blog.

This is Why…Gone are the days of cold selling. Buyers now days tend to go where they are comfortable and familiar. A blog is the ideal medium as a meeting platform between you and the public. They hopefully like what they see and read from you. This is the base from which to work and build a relationship of trust with those who like your style.

Again, keeping in mind that the money is in the list, your aim now should be to steer your visitor towards what is called a ”squeeze“, “landing“, “opt in” or “capture page“. This can be done in a number of ways, the simplest would to offer a freebie in exchange for their name and email details. The idea is to communicate and warm your relationship as a reminder of the benefits and services you offer.

It is no good having a shop on the corner if no one knows about you, even if you offer the best and most reasonable products. E-mailing you list is your way of reaching your potential customers with something of value to them. This process can be very easily automated to earn you income even in your sleep. So blog to create income…

Build Blog Traffic Using Both Articles And Twitter.

We all want more Blog traffic and the best solution that I have found is using this simple yet effective three pronged attack using blog posts, articles and Twitter.

1. Adapting my best blog post into +- 300 word articles.

2. Publishing these articles on ezine directories that have Twitter feed.

3. Actively building a Twitter following.

More on each of these:

1. Publishing articles in a popular Ezine such as www.ezinearticles.com is a great way to exponentially explode your exposure and expertise to people interested in your topic. Why? Because they are searching for information in that category. A targeted prospect interested in your topic… Search engines such as Google have much regard for articles published here. One article of mine has being read by over 750 viewers since December and is still working for me.

2. Publishing these articles on ezine directories that have Twitter feed. Some ezines, (in the author tools section) manages your Twitter details in order to broadcast to your followers your newly published article details. Of course when they read it, in the resource box you lace it with a compelling offer to visit your blogs squeeze page for your news letter.

3. Actively building a Twitter following. On Twitter you can find an enormous amount of interested people in your niche or passion topic. These again are a targeted audience that you want frequenting your blog… so go out and follow them. What normally happens they reciprocate back. A great force to use.

These three elements, blogs, articles and Twitter are what I am concentrating on now that gets me my blog traffic.

Tips and Tricks in Pay Per Click Advertising “PPC”.

Posted on by

Pay Per Click Advertising “PPC”.

Lets use the following example of a ppc campaign to promote a hotel in Poland. This is how I suggest you go about it. Set your website up showing all your “BENEFITS” that you offer, (not features such as how many rooms your Hotel has ect), but focus on the night life, fun, excitement, peace or luxury that your hotel/area offers. If you have a pool put a photo of some pretty girls swimming/ having fun around it for instance or some photos of your chefs speciality dishes in a nice setting together with two elegant glasses of wine all candle lit.

Identify What will attract tourists to your area and focus your marketing strategy on that?

Then clearly explain how to make a booking on your site and the reason again why they should book with you. Some Photo’s again to remind them what they will be missing if they fail to act now….

Right… now you want people to visit your website, this is where PPC comes in.

You can choose any one of the following to advertise with. Each has its own advantages depending on your market. Try Google first and see how you fare with them as they have the largest search results and their campaigns are very easily to set up.

Google Adwords,  https://www.adwords.google.co.uk

https://www.marketingsolutions.login.yahoo.com

https://adcenter.microsoft.com/

Open an account and set up your advert following their step by step format.

A Few Tips And Explanations Before You Start.

Go to  http://www.wordtracker.com and download a free trial keyword tool to find “good” keywords which people use when searching the web for your market. This tool is a must. It will give you alternate keyword phrases and show you how many searches are made in Google, Msn, and Yahoo. This gives you an idea how to promote your site and with which advertiser to go with…

Include the best key word phrases suited to your campaign, as well as in your add.

The idea of your ad is to get people to click your link to your web site. The Head line must get your prospects attention and then explain what good feeling they will get by going to click that link.

Key Words and Phrases.

In your campaign you must understand the difference between content match and search match. Search match is the words or phrase that people type into their browser to find what that they are looking for. These people are looking for particular information and are normally the best prospects to target…

In Wordtracker find the best 5 or 6 keyword phrases like “Best Polish Holiday Resort” and use these in your Google keyword match. If you put “…” around your phrase, (example “Best Polish Holiday Resort”) your ad will only show to people using that exact search phrase. This means your ad is more targeted and should give you the best and cheapest results. Remember each click that they make costs you money.

Content match ad on the other hand will show on a web page that has content related to your ad only. These surfers are not your best prospects as they are not targeted and may click out of curiosity. More clicks and cost to you but less effective…. Google will not tell you this as it is revenue for them!!!

YouTube has a lot of videos showing you how to set up a PPC account. This is one I quickly found… Many more, just type “ppc advertise” into their search bar.

This means that you need to identify specifically who these people are, their location and financial level in the society together with their needs.

It has become important for companies to further expand and seek new markets . Engaging the Internet as a Marketing tool maybe an important step that you need to take to increase business through finding a new global market. A way to match your supply with demand.

How do you ensure that most of your target consumers will get to know of you and your product?

The Solutions:

  • 1. Promotion through a business website.
  • 2. Email marketing, a common Internet marketing solution.
  • 3. Advertising through internet article marketing, ezines, press releases or ppc ads.

Email marketing is a cost effective way of communicating and interacting to your consumers, driving them to visit your website and check out your products. Your mailing list is built from a lead capture page and an autoresponder service. This is the client, customer getting solution that your business can not live without….

It may be in a way through using marketing articles or leading them to forums or newsletters. A newsletter has an advantage of expanding your consumer numbers as more and more sign up on it, until you can have a bulk list of prospects email addresses.

Another great Internet marketing solution is through websites. This is a good promotion strategy to employ since you can display all the necessary information for your target consumers. The website should capture their interest and be complete since every transaction, from inquiry to payments may take place. All correspondence that will be done online must be well-facilitated through the features of your website. A virtual store front without expensive real estate…

Your first months newbie membership club membership cost I think is $1. Try it out and see how easy it is to follow step by simple step video instruction. If you do not like what you see- cancel your subscription.      

If you are any thing like me there is so much to learn you will get stuck in, to never look back at your business growth. Newbie  List Building Club.
