Do you think you can create content, such as articles, and drive traffic to your squeeze page?
There is so much not to trust online now. In internet marketing there have always been get-rich-quick schemes, offers that are hyped up, and products that promise much but only give you a small bit of the online puzzle.
This is also the case with traffic generation. You can buy traffic, do joint ventures, buy solo ads, and so on. A lot are to do with sending cold traffic to a sales page and hoping for the best. Even when recommendation comes from a marketer prospects have some trust in already, it doesn't mean people will automatically buy from you.
The key difference with articles and content like them is that they're created by you, or at least by some second person guided by you. Readers are hearing your individual voice and attitude, not a generalized marketing style. It's more likely prospects will feel a link to you as an individual, and if they like what you're saying, feel some trust in you too.
Imagine clicking a link from any other type of traffic source, such as an ad of some kind, and you arrive at a squeeze page. You know nothing about this marketer and a squeeze page doesn't really give much about you. It is difficult to develop trust through a squeeze page, or a sales page for that matter. Even if you sign up to that marketer's list, they now have you as a subscriber who doesn't feel any trust toward them as you've had no chance to do that. Plus, you keep getting emails with offer after offer.
Now imagine you'd read an article by them first. You like how it sounds and what it says. You'd like more from this person. You click the article link, sign up to their list, and email series. They're all in the same voice, and have the same attitude.
When you get a subscriber from an article or piece of similar content, you're not getting a cold sign up. You're not starting from scratch with the first email. The development of a relationship of trust has already begun. You just have to keep that trust and develop the relationship over time.

Your Content In Search Marketing
Search marketing can take up a lot of time and effort on your part. But if you include relevant content marketing, it can make it much easier.
In fact, you could find you by-pass the search marketing bit as people find your content without them.
How to work them together.
First, decide the pages or posts on your site that you want to register better in the search engines.
Second, create content that is about subjects in your niche that people in your niche would like to have more information on.
Third, in the link at the end of the content use the same keyword as your page you want to improve in the search engines.
Fourth, publish the content on a high ranked websites. Use unique content for each website you publish on.
Fifth, publish as many pieces of content as you can so you have as great an effect as possible. Written content is the easiest and quickest to produce for this, unless you're already experienced with audio or video. In any case, these could all be used.
Test this out by choosing, or creating, one page to use to do this. Check where it ranks. Create and publish enough content. A few pieces here and there will not do. When that's done, or as you continue to create content, re-check the ranking.
An alternative is to create niche relevant and useful content. Publish as suggested. You will be naturally using niche keywords anyway so you need not focus on just one.This gives a more website general and long term effect.

How Difficult Actaully Is It To Make Your Own Product?
I'm sure you've come across plenty of ways to generate money on the internet. There are lots of so-called systematic methods too. Many of them are temporary, one-hit wonders.
The let-down with using those is that people pile in to join the bandwagon. The first and quick marketers will make it work for a while in profiting from them. But then everybody and his dog are using them, and the methods don't work any more. Some people are forever seeking that secret eldorado method.
Instead, you need to have an evergreen way of creating an income. One that doesn't disappear. Easily the best and most sure way of doing this is to have your own products that you have created. Nobody can really copy them as they're unique to you.
Therefore, make your own product.
Here's how.
First, decide what niche or sub-niche you'll be in. What are you knowledgeable about? What are you above average at doing?
Second, what format will you use? How is the information best presented? It is best for people to read it, hear it, or see it? In other words, will you create a text based product, an audio, or a video?
Third, list the main ideas you need to cover. Under each main idea, list three to five (or more) related ideas.
Fourth, start making it. Write the ebook or whatever text based product it is. Use the list as your plan (don't write out every word you'll say but keep it sounding more spontaneous) for your audio. The same for your video: decide what you'll show and say, when.
Fifth, complete the product.
Sixth, check it over for mistakes. Don't be heavy handed about this. For example, don't worry about um's and ah's in your audio or video. If the information is valuable to them, customers will not mind.
Seventh, make your offer in a sales letter on your site.
Eighth, get visitors to your offer.

Your Content Marketing As An Affiliate
You can generate money as an affiliate. The best thing about being an affiliate is you don't have to be involved with service to your customers. Neither do you need a sales letter. As long as you get paid in the way you expect, you're freed up to do marketing. Also, you can have a squeeze page and collect cusromers' emails so you can email market to them.
What's the relationship with content marketing? Of course, as hinted at, you need to have a list of your own to develop your affiliate business, instead of sending visitors dirctly to the product owner's site.
This works well with content marketing. This is because when somebody consumes your content and decides to click your link that takes them to your squeeze page, they do it because they've found the content useful, presented the way they like, and want more from you. This means that when you send them your email series they'll probably click links there too.
Make this process as effective as you can by creating your own email series. So, they're moving from content created by you, to a squeeze page by you, to emails by you - all in your style and voice. This all build trust and credibility, encouraging the development of long term customers.

Is Your List Loyal To You?
Are you aiming to build a big list? That's ok but are they opening all of your emails day by day, and then clicking your links, and then purchasing your product?
Your subscribers have to have excellent reasons to want to read your emails. It is not to do with the subject line. Given time, you show them that you provide above average value, that your emails will not let them down.
First, make it a regular action to give them a freebie asking for nothing in return. They will want to see if the next email gives a similar freebie, and it encourages them to click your links. You're looking for long term sales and not just a few sales here and there.
Second, your content emails need to stand out in the information your give them. If they can get the same information somewhere else you'll lose some to that source. You want to build trust in yourself and your emails. Better not to send one if you haven't got good enough material.
Third, build the trust and understanding further by asking your subscribers what they are stuck on and what they need help with. You can then create products to help them.
In addition, give answers in follow up emails. It's free. You're not referring them to a product you want to sell with the answer in it. You're giving it away to them.
Also, other subscribers who did not respond, see your answers and it gives a sense of a live list, which is useful when you send an offer.
Fourth, if people email you personally, aim to answer them all yourself.
Fifth, give customers more than they expect. Provide bonuses to your products, including unannounced ones.
You can see the build up of support here for your subscribers, which encourages them to remain loyal to you and your business.

Ebook Creation The Simple And Easy Way
People take far too long (or give up) creating their ebook, or any kind of text product. An ebook is often the first thought of those thinking of their first product. Then a lot of people think it takes too long to be bothered with. But if you can use one hour each day and create four pages in that hour, you can see how quickly you can get it done without massive effort.
Here's the process you can use. Although this is about an ebook yo can use it for different content formats too.
First, make sure you're clear what your subject is.
Second, write down everything you know about it. Include things you don't know a lot about at the moment but needs to be in the ebook.
Third, pick out the most important ideas you've got, and make those your chapter topics. Under each of those, list three to five ideas that will be in that chapter. If you use a text tool to do this it's easy to move things around and you'll be able to use your ebook plan to start work on it.
Fourth, using the chapter topics you know about best or most, start writing those. It doesn't matter where you begin, a first, middle or last chapter. Any chapters, or ideas in a chapter, you need more information on, you can leave to later. Just keep writing what you can so you're not held up and may lose interest.
Fifth, in turn find out about the ideas you need more information on. Write them up in turn when you've got the required information.
Sixth, when you're finished, check for spellings, punctuation and grammar. Don't spend a lot of time on this. Just check it over once.

Make Money From Your Product Launches
First, what are the needs, problems, questions in your niche that people want answers to? If you have a list, then ask them.
When you have responses on a subject you can make a product, then tell them you're doing so.
Second, make that product. Obviously, this takes intentional and consistent work but, I think, people's biggest difficulty is just being worried about whether they can actually do it. However, it's important to ensure it is as you claim it to be. Take a little extra time if need be to make sure it does that. It's worth it becasue if customers find it isn't what you said it is, they will be very wary of buying from you again. Yo want the opposite: they look forward to your next product and buy every product you make.
Third, before you launch it, tell subscribers to look out for an email about it.
Fourth, you might want to to get other marketers with similar lists, to join with you in promoting it.
Fifth, make sure every bit of your product is right, and also your system for selling and delivering it, such as your download process.
Sixth, write the best sales letter you can. It might be a great product but people have to be sold on it.
Seventh, tell your subscribers it's available, and give the link. Repeat a day later.
Eighth, start a new product straight away.

You Need A Plan To Succeed Online
Have you experienced this?
You decided to start an online business, so you check all the relevant sales page offers, buy some of them, but realize you don't know what to do with all that information you have.
The result is you get more information about how to use the information you already have, so you can build a coherent business.
Do the opposite. Don't go around buying everything. Create a plan you can follow, and develop it as you go.
Search online for the information about what you need to do to get going. From that, set out a plan to get your ideas working.
At this stage, this is where you have the advantage over all the others trying to start an online business. This is because when you now buy what you need you only purchase what you know goes with your plan to turn it into a reality. You don't need to buy stuff just based on what a sales page tells you, and hope for the best.
Make the plan so you can follow it stage by stage as you develop what you're doing. Begin with the niche you'll be in, the website you'll have, and where you'll get your traffic from. Ensure after that, you have ways to list build and for converting subscribers to customers. Then plan out your poducts.

Your Successful Affiliate Email Marketing
If you have a list already, that's great. You might have heard you should expect each subscriber on your list to be worth $1 each month.
You're not getting that? Read on.
You've done as has been suggested. You've built a list. You've set up an email campaign using the affiliate emails provided for you. Unfortunately, it's not working.
The problem?
The voice.
That means your emails need to be in the same voice, your voice, as the sign up system you've set up. When you buy in a squeeze page written by someone else, the visitors you send there identify with, and are willing to sign up because of, that person's style or voice. That is different to the person who wrote the affiliate emails. The same thing is true even if you wrote your own squeeze page. Therefore, they don't recognize the emails as yours. There might be different organization, different vocabulary, different use of punctution.
Whatever it is, they feel you did not write the emails.
What you're reading at the moment, and if you read it all, might cause you to click a link at the end. You appreciate the style or voice for some reason, and want to read more from me. Not becasue it's a great stand out article. It's just an ordinary article. But something might fit with you.
If you then go to a squeeze page I've written you will more than likely opt in because you recognize the same voice as in the article. It's not coming from someone else.
It's the same thing with emails and sales pages. You send an affiliate program email you're given and people don't respond so well, if at all. You write the emails but send them to straight affiliate sales page and they can see the difference.
Create your own emails. Those that don't work so well that you see through your tracking can either be improved on or dropped altogether. Replace them or move them around. Learn from what's actually happening, and how you can make things better each time.

Email Marketing At The Center Of Internet Marketing
Once marketers could buy lists from list companies and email the people on them. Now that is against the law as spam. The result is you have to build your own list.
But what's the relationship with internet marketing?
You must communicate with the people on your list, on a regular basis. This is the main strategy for selling your products and making a profit. In other words, in having a business and not a hobby. It's much easier to sell to someone who knows and trusts you than someone who turns up to your website cold. When that happens they may not have come across you before, or if they've come from a piece of your content, they may not know anything else about you. In this sort of situation, people just don't buy.
Email marketing is at the center of your internet marketing endeavors because of being able to communicate with your subscribers, and make repeated offers of a product if they don't buy first time. With cold visitors to your site, if they don't buy then and there, they'll leave and you probably won't see them again. Because of repeat offers through emails, sales and profits can be much higher.
It's easier to convert a subscriber on your list into a customer, than a one-time visitor to your site.
As an internet marketer, do the following.
First, send your traffic to your squeeze page, the only purpose of which is to convert visitors to subscribers. You do not sell anything on the squeeze page. You sell to your subscribers in your emails.
Second, develop successful email sequences that send them to successfully developed sales letters that convert your subscribers into customers. Many more than if you'd try to convert cold traffic.
Third, take care of your list. In effect, it is your business. They are the ones who will pay you money for your valuable products. Email marketing is the core of your business, the most important part of your business system and of your internet marketing.

Email Is A Necessity In Your Online Business
Do You Want to Start In Internet Marketing?
Anyone can get started in internet marketing. They can do it with just a few dollars.
Actually, that's the problem. It's the reason most do not succeed online.
The little amount of money they put in to get started seems to suggest the returns won't be very high either. What they think, tends to come true.
Also, when they make some profits, it'll probably get spent on some entertainment. It's a reward for the time and effort they've put in.
However, a serious online business person will be pleased to start with so small an amount of money. Then when they make some profits, they'll plow them back into the business to make it grow.
It's traffic which can cost the most, either in money or time.
How can you begin to make a profit?
Test and track what you do, such as traffic generation, email effectiveness, and product sales. Without doing this you can't tell what is and is not working best for your business. Your income has to be bigger than the money you're paying out. Therefore, you want the most effective systems you can get to ensure that happens.

People Open Emails For Content
Have you seen those offers for a package of email subject lines that are said to be tested to get your emails opened?
Can this be true?
Maybe for a while when subscribers are new to your list. You can tease them with promises in your subject lines. But these types of email are largely used by business opportunity or get rich quick marketers. People get bored or fed up with them after a while, and stop opening emails or unsubscribe.
On the other hand, those who stay on your list and keep reading them aren't doing it for the subject lines but because of the content you keep sending them.
They'll open your emails because the last email, and those before that, were valuable to them. It might have extended their understanding or gave useful and doable information that helped them. So, if you check email open rates it will probably be the case that it is content already received which influences whether next emails are opened and read.
Just think about which emails you open consistently.
You see who has sent an email and you see the subject line. Which one influences you to click it open? Think about what you actually do, and not what you might have read marketers telling you about the importance of subject lines.
Do you always read those emails by the same marketers every time? I believe that will be the case. Isn't it your experience of their content that gets you to do so?
If you're not sure, try this. Make a note to yourself to read this again tomorrow just after you read any emails. Let me know what you think then.

You see who has sent an email and you see the subject line. Which one influences you to click it open? Think about what you actually do, and not what you might have read marketers telling you about the importance of subject lines.
Do you always read those emails by the same marketers every time? I believe that will be the case. Isn't it your experience of their content that gets you to do so?
If you're not sure, try this. Make a note to yourself to read this again tomorrow just after you read any emails. Let me know what you think then.

Your List Profits Generation
List building in itself is not of much use. You need to aim at more than that. You're running a business, so you want to build a list that generates you profits. Of course, that takes more work than simply building the list.
Just about everybody who starts up online will be able to have their own list. You can keep on getting subscribers.
However, the money you make from it at first, if at all, will probably only be small.
Take these actions to increase your list profits, and keep doing them.
First, make sure you continuously deliver more in value to them. Give them the freebie immediately that they signed up to get. But that's only the beginning. Have your email series ready to deliver valuable information on a regular basis. Give them updates to your products, and free gifts, and any other useful information, in any form, you can provide. This way you develop loyal subscribers.
Second, develop rapport with them. Ask them what they need help with and where they're stuck. Get them to advise you what they want. Find out what information they're after. Then, give it to them as free information.
Third, your task is to enable your subscribers to be successful. The more they succeed, the more they'll be willing to purchase products from you to help them further.

Your Top Traffic Techniques
Everybody needs traffic. But people who get lots of traffic don't always want it to be known how they do it. Obviously, if everybody knew, there'd be no more sense of authority about it, and they might have too many people doing the same thing.
However, why shouldn't everyone have more traffic through what they're creating and how they're working?
Here's a key way of doing it.
First, make a useful freebie you created yourself. Professional marketers even have their freebies stamped with their name, not somebody else's. Why not do the same?
Second, spread it around. Let people download it through as many places as possible. Then give more and more. You can also put it in different formats, such as an article, post, audio, video, free call, and so on.
Third, when people subscribe to your list, they've done so because they trust you at least to some extent. They want more from you. Therefore, provide more free information. You can link to your website pages and to other content in other places. That way, you get more traffic, and they get increasing value as their knowledge builds.

Your Forum Traffic Source
To be successful online you must have traffic. A traffic source you can depend on that fits your business. Of course, you still have to track and test it so you drop what does not work and build up what does work.
This takes persistence in working at it as much as you can. In fact, you need to aim to get yourself above the average marketer in your niche. Remember that most people give up too early.
If you think forums might provide you with that, or one, traffic source, take these actions.
First, search for anywhere from 10 to 30 forums in your niche. You could start with 5 and build up over time as you continue your testing. If you sell exotic flowers information, search for "exotic flowers forums", or "flowers forums" that might have a section on exotic ones. Or search for any related terms followed by "forums".
Second, become a member of the ones you find.
Third, develop a signature you can put after your posts when you're allowed to. It could be your website address or an email address. Do not try to sell anything in the signature.
Fourth, introduce who you are in the specific section for doing so. You only need some general information. Then sign out of the site.
Fifth, next day look through the forum for questions people are asking for answers to and problems they're stuck on and want solutions to. Answer three to ten of these, giving helpful information. Your answers need not be long. Then sign out.
Sixth, do this regularly, answering posts with helpful responses. Answer a number each day, perhaps increasing as you go on until you reach a time limit you set yourself for doing this work. Avoid spending hours a day on this. For example, be in for half an hour at the most and work effectively.
The main reason for doing this is not to advertise but to build relationships with people on the forum who need help, and who you can help with your information. Once they trust you over time, then they will buy from you as they click through to your website.
