STOP! Take Action and Profit! Fight Internet Marketing ADD!

November 22nd, 2009 admin No comments

Are you too easily distracted?

Do you find yourself hopping from one thing to another.

It’s far to easy to fall into the pattern that I like to call Internet Marketing ADD!

Are you consumed with the act of learning rather than actually earning?

Seriously Stop! Take Action and Profit! Fight Internet Marketing ADD!

You honestly don’t need to know everything to make money online.

It all has to start with keyword and product research, and then..

Content is king, are you putting it out there?

It’s pretty simple, honestly just create content, and put it out there, link to it.

Profit!

You want to have the keywords in your title, post your article to your blog, to directories, to web 2.0.

Maybe it takes you a while to learn the art of writing articles and resource boxes that get results, but you’ll learn.

Copywriting is as important as your keyword research, if you’re talking about product development. Your salesletter is your money, if you can’t afford to outsource it you might need to learn about it before you can really “grab” a visitors attention, and keep it for more than ten seconds.

See cause most people in general have mild add, not many are going to stay with you if you’re not at least somewhat interesting.  The best thing you can do is shoot for curiosity in your headline, or title, like what is IMADD?

Once you’ve got some skills in the writing department you need to apply it, write articles, write an ebook, if you can’t write pay someone to do it, but if it comes natural to you than enjoy it because simple words can make you rich.

Whatever you’re doing online, you’ve got to DO IT!

Work, write, post, link, it takes work.

It doesn’t always pay off right away, but it will if you research, write and stick it out.

My review site started with some $4 articles that I bought and because I POSTED that content all over within two weeks I’ve made $71   I’ve also targeted a specific keyword for each. Building links submitting articles and bookmarking, linking blogs with rss.  This is all working to generate a long term traffic source that I can rely on for a while.

It takes work, it takes time but it pays in the end.

Enjoy the Profits!

Discover The Truth About Internet Marketing

November 19th, 2009 admin 1 comment

I’m sure that sometimes you feel like giving up.

It’s hard to start an online business as a single person, when you’re competing with guys who can outsource everything..

So much information, so much technology, it can be overwhelming.

The trick is to not get bogged down with information, it’s really to take action.

Build a list..

If you currently don’t have a list that is where you need to start.

A good way to start is to grab some free plr and create some squeeze pages to give them away.

Then you can participate in giveaway events which are a great way to bring in subscribers and if you upgrade you can set up offers that can bring you in customers.

Building a list of customers should be your ultimate goal, but if you don’t have a product giving away a free report or something else can be a way to get started building that list.

The fastest way for you to build a list is to create a product and get other people to promote it.  Now I’ll admit that this can be a lot of work, and sometimes hard to get momentum going when you’re new but any sales or joint ventures you can create become progress towards the bigger goal.

Now article marketing is another effective way to generate traffic to your squeeze pages.  If you can’t write them yourself you can pay someone to do it for you.  You can post articles to your blog, to article directories, have it ping social media for attention.

One of my last articles got 75 retweets within two days of posting it.  Posting your articles to directories can also get them published on other websites and in some ezines.  Many people rely on these directories for their content, so if you can write a good article it could be published across the web in no time.

The process of encouraging and enabling other people to spread your content around is viral marketing.

Pretty much everything you do should imply, suggest, and make simple the process of sharing that information with others.  This is how you can leverage the popularity of whatever you create, by encouraging it to be shared.

Beyond list building and viral marketing comes the “glue” that holds the whole process together, Copywriting.

What really makes or breaks your business is the words you choose, the way they can affect people is profound and requires a solid understanding of the English language and the psychological effect words can have.

Writing one good sales letter that sells can make you a lot of money.  Maybe your first one doesn’t make millions, but it’s a learning process.  Eventually you will discover what works, just never underestimate the importance of good copy.

I hope I painted you a nice picture of what it takes to achieve online success, what you need to do now is go and apply this.   Without action nothing is gained, it’s going to take some work, and it’s going to take some time.

Enjoy Your Success!

Shawn C. Mason Internet Marketing Addict..

November 18th, 2009 admin No comments

It all started one day in the battle.net forums…

See I was addicted to this game called starcraft.

and one day browsing this forum some signature was like “hey I make money online”..

Curiosity got the best of me, and I was thrown into a world of junk pyramid schemes and traffic exchanges.

It took me the better part of two years messing around with free stuff and not making a single dime online before I felt I was ready, to get serious and buy a few domain names.

I started out with a collection of resale rights materials, put my own spin on it.

Just having the site landed me a JV someone who had a similar site, we exchanged free memberships as part of the JV and almost instantly I built myself a list of paying customers.   I began to make real money online, and quit my security job to work from home full time.

The first thing I did was create an offer called “I quit my day job special offer” and reeled in a whole bunch of people to contribute products.   It ended up being a huge success, and after all the years of hard work it had finally paid off.

Without revealing exactly what happened, I let some personal stress get the best of me and I broke down.

Falling into a deep depression despite my success, and with no one to pull me out of it I let it all fall apart.

Working for nearly 4 years to become successful online totally wasted..

I obviously regret this more than I can describe here, but that’s not the point…

The point is that once I finally pulled my head up from feeling terrible, the first thing I wanted to do was rebuild my Internet Business.   I’m sure you’ve heard it before, what would you do if you had no list, no jv partners and had to start with nothing but a few hundred dollars for hosting..

There I was, faced with the task of rebuilding everything from nothing, and so I began.

I had a bit of catching up to do, my head wasn’t really in the game for some time so I spent some money on what information and products I deemed necessary.  I picked I think 18 or so topics and began to build a blog, and twitter following around each one.  I didn’t spend a lot of time on any of them I just kind of threw them up there, as a test.

What I discovered was that some topics, would build because of their own popularity, and others wouldn’t.

Because I carefully tracked all my adsense I could sit back and evaluate which topics were worth monetizing and which ones weren’t.  It was only after I would discover that the blog was getting pagerank and traffic that I would go out in search of a product perfect to sell to that niche.

It’s important to note that I didn’t start off right away in Internet Marketing..  this is a “hyper competitive” niche where you’re really competing against the best guys in the world.  While I did eventually write my Internet Intelligence Report it was only after my work to monetize the niche blogs that I had created.

Internet Marketing is no joke, if you want to compete (as a single human being) you need to know a lot of stuff.

You need to have a passion for something so that you can write about it and not go insane. ;)

Many people do not like writing articles and outsource it.  I would hardly say I like it but you read my story I’m pretty positive there is a part of me that enjoys this..   It’s important because from product creation to product promotion it’s all about your content, your sales letter, your articles.

If it’s not your thing you can outsource it, but there’s a big price range between writing articles, and writing copy.  Copywriting is important for every aspect of your marketing.  The words you choose can easily make or break your website.  If you’re like most people and can’t afford a copywriter you can study it yourself.

Beyond buying some popular copywriting courses you can simply look for appealing sales letters (in your market) and create a swipe file of the good stuff.  You can learn a lot just by reading into a few good sales letters to understand how they work, and the language that they use.

Enjoy the success!
