So today I'm going to talk about the right 'investments' in your business and how easy it is to make money online: Get a domain name, hosting, a squeeze page, autoresponder and a "thank you" page that sends them straight to your offer (affiliate link or your own product). Then send traffic as you choose (PPC, article marketing, etc.) Seem easy, right? Perhaps TOO easy? Well, it is easy. Very easy. In fact, if done right, it is easier than throwing up a full blown presell page. Here is where a lot of people fail - they write article after article, sending people to presell pages or content sites that just don't convert. Even worse, they set up a free wordpress blog and then a month later get that blog tore down by wordpress for a TOS violation (wordpress doesn't allow commercial content on their free blog - affiliate link included) Same goes with hubpages. And if it's squidoo, well, guess what? If you sell 1 out of every 99 people that visit your site, then what happens to those other 99? Well, you lost them. Here is what you do: Set up a squeeze page. For the info on the site, pull straight from the sales page bullets (the benefits you are selling) that you are sending people too. You really don't even need a free guide or bonus for opting in. (Though, it WILL help increase your opt-in rate). Just list the benefits of opting in (which is the same benefits of the product you are selling) and include all the proper lingo - Promise not to spam, etc. etc. Now, set up your thank you page for signing up: The thank you page is a short 5 second thank you that immediately redirects to the sales page. If they buy, guess what? You made a sale. If not...oh well...here comes the NEXT part: So they didn't buy? Fine. This is where your autoresponder kicks in. For 14 straight days you are going to "remind" them of product you are promoting. Include the affiliate link at least 3 to 4 times. Send targeted traffic traffic Article marketing, ppc, doesn't matter. If you do PPC, make sure your squeeze page has at least a contact page, a privacy policy page, an about page, an article page, and maybe even link to a blog. You want to do that for a good quality score. Thats it. Really. Making money online isn't rocket science. It's just comes down to DOING it. Of course, there are things that will dramatically improve your response rate. Things like: - A 3 or 4 day "presell" for the product you are promoting. - A "bonus" download for those that buy. - A "free guide" for those that opt-in. - A quiz script that will increase their curiosity. - High converting emails. (more on this tomorrow) So, for those that want a plan, here you go. This is SIMPLE and you can implement this NOW and start making money TODAY! (If you are using PPC. Article marketing may take 2 to 7 days).
Just a quick update that I use NVU.com for editing my website templates and CORE FTP lite for uploading to my site
Sorry, I never reveal what sites I own (for many reasons), however in niches like ''get my ex back'' and ''how to pick up women'' I've a few sites. But this isn't hard...find your own ''hungry niche'',research it, and take action
this is too old. only micro niche can works with it. and some new strategy needed. welcome to the hard competition
This is good advice the only issue is, many people would advise to learn how to make money through other methods like seo, article marketing, guest posting etc. It can be quite a cost to join aweber (extra £10 a month i believe) and if you don't know how to monetise your list it can become difficult especially with the added price. My 2 cents...
