I have $400 to invest in my internet business - what would you buy ?

hi there,

i have accumulated checks of $400 US in the last 2 months and i want to reinvest in my internet business. But i am not sure where to put my money.
I was thinking of buying some courses, software, invest in PPC etc. I was thinking of programs like Dayjobkiller or 12monthMillionaire or buying some additional turnkey websites....

...or software packages like KeyWord software. Then I thought membership of some marketing promotion would be great..oh yes, I was close to purchase a Clickbank storefront for my other website...

Anyhow ...what would you guys doing if you have $400 to spend for your business ???
Thanks
Thomas

 

DONT BUY COURSES like those gurus ebooks, you can get that for free anywhere and its not worthless. I would buy advertising with those 400 and optimize all the campaings to get higher returns then you will have your 400 back to reinvest and profit.

ps: keyword soft is good if you do a lot of websites but you can do great researchs with free tools

 

I wouldn't buy ANY ebook. Trust me when i say that almost everything is the same and all hyped up. Raving reviews are almost only because of affiliatecommissions and when you spend some time here, warriorforum and read blogs like shoemoney's, john chow, dosh dosh, earnersblog and bluehat you will know more then any of the books you mention.

I would invest the $400 in ppc for sites you have that are making you money now. Maybe buy some good software but there also you need to be able to see thru the raving reviews and find real helpfull stuf instead of highpriced things that you can find elsewhere for less or free.

 

Definately advertisements. That way, you can make back your $400 plus some.

 

Set up a site and put in good posts and get a review up in Johnchow.com and its worth for 400$ spent

 

Have you tried that and if you did what was your ROI?

 

Or he could ask someone else to do the review, in fact he could ask for like 4 reviews that are estimated at the prize of $100. That way he will be reviewed on 4 different sites and people from different blogging communities will go check his site.

 

I would love to see some casestudies with actual roi

Maybe it's me but i am so sceptical to a lot of things. Ebooks and courses by making the mistake myself of buying and keep on buying.
The best advice : Focus on one thing. Unsubscribe of all Guru lists and work and work hard

 

I wud spend mostly on advertisment and content / site promotion.

 

Spend the money promoting your site by hiring content writers and other popular means of advertising like social bookmarks.

 

Buy some domains, get designs done, add content and sell. If you do it well you can double your investment easily.

 

Put some into promoting your current sites, and look into purchasing an already established website that has potential.

 

Invest that money in your sites. You need three things to make money:

1) Good content or good products
2) Good looking site or a good looking sales page with good copy
3) Targeted traffic

Where you invest your money depends on what you have already. Go down the list starting with number 1 and go through to number 3.

Good things to invest in include:
a book on writing sales copy or a book on traffic(a ten to twenty dollar one at halfpriced books or amazon.com)
a graphic artist to redesign the site
plr products to add content to your site
software/service to allow you to collect and build a list

 

As stated, advertising would be great.

 

You can easily start some good sites with that amount that will keep making revenue every month for you. Content sites are best idea and also i recommend a good network of sites with games, video, picture sharing etc. where users will find more interesting methods to communicate. A good website network can take you to a better place.

 

thanks guys... all great ideas. I think I'll defenitely buy some ads and ppc.
cheers

like most members, i too suggest you to invest that money in promoting / marketing your website.

 

Buy content, Games, Articles.

Buy lots of links and get traffic high, mabey a PPC program..

Then sell and make $$$

 

i would buy a myspace friends adder script, and use the rest of money on website promotion

The scripts cost about $60, and spend $340 on ads. You can buy ads on proxy site, or myspace resource sites.

 

I'd personally recommend you to invest all your money on building a proxy network. Just build around 50 proxies, and promote them via newsletters. ( Many people on DP offer this service, Just browse Advertise section, or buy the whole mailing list from someone and promote it yourself ). You'll surely get back your 400$ + more $$.
