Email marketing still works and if you use this strategy properly you will drive highly targeted prospects to your site. There are many different types of websites where you can run your email marketing campaign. There are safelists, list builders, traffic exchanges, text ad exchanges and ezines.

I found that the most effective are list builders like Viral Url, Viral Host, List Joe, List Dot Com, Business World List and then Ezines. List builder is place where people are building a list by using viral marketing strategies, but my recommendation is to use service called solo ad. You can send email to highly targeted opportunity seekers and I made several sales from List builders.

If you do not what Ezine is, it is an electronic magazine where people subscribe in order to receive more information about specific niche. And you can rent a list in this Ezines and send your email to those people. In Ezines there are different types of ads, but I recommend using solo ad. So you can rent a list and send your offer to 2000, 10 000, 50 000 or even 500 000 targeted people. Imagine the results that you can have just from one email. Read my article 4 steps how to write effective and killer emails, in order to have a powerful email and especially headline.

But here is the catch, where to find an Ezine for my niche where I can send my offer. So here it is, you can use your best tool called Google and do a research, but it will take you a lot of time to find quality ezine or you can use site called Directory of Ezines.

Directory of Ezines is site where you can find ezines from different niches and it is pretty easy to do. By using advance search you can find highly targeted ezines for your offer. As a member of Directory if Ezines you will also receive special discounts for solo ads so your investment for DOE will return after you order about 5 solo ads with discounts. I think that this is great.

You will also have the opportunity to put your profile on marketing profile page, run a free banner advertising campaign on DOE, submit classifieds and many other bonuses.

If you are serious about doing email marketing I strongly recommend to use Directory of Ezines in order to find a quality targeted ezines for your offer. Download free ezine marketing report on DOE and find out how to do email marketing effectively.

I would like to hear if you have experience with Directory of Ezines and if yes feel free to share them in comments.

How To Double Resource Box Click Through Rate For Your Article Marketing

A few days ago I read a quick report about this topic and I received very useful advices, because imagine if you at least double resource box click through rate for your article marketing. How much traffic you will get from your articles?

Article marketing is great strategy, but if people do not click on your link in your resource box you will waste so much traffic to your website. So the first thing is that you need to write an article full of value. This is the most important. But I think that second important thing is to encourage them to visit your website and opt in.

So how to do it? You need to have powerful ad in your resource box.  I used something like Jiri Majkus is Internet Marketer, for more information go to this website. But I discovered that this resource box is not working enough. So I tried something like, for more internet marketing tips and tricks download free lead generation report or for more information about lead generation claim your free lead generation report or want to generate hundreds of leads? Click here to find out how. What was the result? The click through rate increased dramatically.

So resource box is not place for branding. Your name does not matter. All that matters is click. It is also much stronger call to action and your resource box is like a little ad. Without strong call to action people will not visit your website and you will lose so much traffic.

I learned this from guy named David Raybould and he is very successful with article marketing. His average resource box click through rate is 31-33%. Wow that is amazing. So I think that he knows what he is talking about.

Another tip for increasing resource box click through rate is to write strong call to action in the last paragraph of every of your article that pushes the reader toward your resource box. Something like, click the link below to find out how to generate hundreds of leads.

I would like to hear your experinence with click through rate of your articles. If you have any another tip how to increase click through rate feel free to share in comments. I will also appreciate if you digg this, share with your followers and facebook friends.

secret

I know that you are curious to find out what it this secret lead generation strategy and let me tell you that you probably never heard about this and if yes feel free to share your experience in comments.

Do you remember one of my previous posts 10 minutes of work and 164 leads for my online business? If you did not read this article you should, because I am revealing another great lead generation strategy that you can use for your online business. I was explaining how it is easy to write a short eBook or report and then distribute to eBook sites. I did this with my previous eBook and I generated 164 leads. Not bad at all.

In this article I want to show you another great strategy that I am using for promoting eBooks.  I created my campaign 5 days ago and I already generated 46 leads for my online business.

So what is this secret lead generation strategy? I bet that you heard about warrior forum. Warrior forum is the premier internet marketing forum on the internet and every day thousands of people hang out there wanting to learn about internet marketing.

But I am not talking about the forum marketing. Forum marketing is a good strategy for lead generation, but I am talking about something more powerful and if you do it right you will generate a lot of highly targeted leads for your online business.

The secret is warrior special offer section. The reason why warrior forum is good is because it is not seen as a place where people just post spam posts all over the place. It is a place that is highly respected by many marketers, if you offer to give them some good information for free, people will jump.

So I recommend to post a warrior special offer where you will be offering your eBook for free. Click here to go to WSO (warrior special offer). You will see that many internet marketers are using this method and many of them have thousands of views. Imagine the lead generation potential here. Of course you need to have a good headline and copy of your offer and powerful capture page.

But here is the catch. In order to post a WSO it will cost you $20. Why? Because they only want serious people to post offers in there. But this is good for you, because people will see that you are serious and they will read your offer.

I am using this lead generation strategy for my online business and it works pretty well for me. If you do it right it will works for you too. I am not using forum marketing in my online business, but warrior special offer section is a powerful place to put your offer in front of highly targeted people.

Let me know if you have any experience with this strategy, I would like to hear your story. Also I would like to know what you think about this strategy and if you like it, feel free to share this with your followers and facebook friends.

With this simple method you can increase your capture page opt in rate and it takes about 10 minutes to set up. It is always good to increase your opt in rate even if you have great conversion on your capture page. Of course you have to have a good copy on your capture page, but if you use this simple method your conversion will increase.

So what is it? If you will go on my capture page you will have to opportunity to download my lead generation report, but if someone will not opt in and they will leave my website they will get on my additional offer where they can opt in, because this offer can be more lucrative for them.

All you need to do is to put tiny little code on your website. It is called exit pop up. It means that if someone will leave your website they will be forwarded to another site with different kind of offer. You can use this for increasing opt in rate or you can use this method for special discount in order to increase your sales.

For example you are promoting product for $67 and if they will decide that it is too much for them you can forward them to site where you are offering $20 discount. Many people like discounts so it is a good strategy how to increase sales.

You can use this strategy on your capture page, thank you page and even on your blog. When I use this strategy my conversion increased and you can do it to. It takes about 10 minutes of work and your website is set up forever.

Many internet marketers are using this method and they know why. It is very powerful and for example one of the big names in internet marketing Michael Jones tested this strategy and he was able to increase his customer sign up by 325%. Not bad at all.

I highly recommend Exit Splash, and in my honest opinion, everyone that owns a website should be taking advantage of their exit traffic. The crazy thing about this is that you will generate more leads and sales from people attempting to leave your website. Imagine the potential here. Ten minutes of work and one tiny little script. Maybe it sounds like science fiction, but I assure you: it is real and it is work.

Here is quick video explaining what is it and how it works:


If you like this method, feel free to share with your followers and facebook friends.  I will also appreciate your comments if you have any experience with this strategy.

challengeThe main and biggest challenge that every internet marketers face is getting organize. I see that almost every beginner in internet marketing has the problem to organize and it starts with choosing the marketing strategies, because you can’t be organize if you not know what to do. You know that there are a lot of strategies out there and we want to use them all, because we want to get the biggest results.

But this is one of the biggest mistakes that you can do in your business, start to apply all these strategies and expect great results. Why is this big mistake? Because you will get results only if you are good in specific strategy. And you can’t be expert in 10 different strategies within 30-60 days.

It takes about 6 months to really master marketing strategy. In one of my previous article Discover the proven marketing strategies for online business I was talking about that. So if you did not read this article go and read it.

The next challenge is to create a step by step (day by day) plan and stick with your plan. What I mean by that? That you create at least week schedule with exact action steps and you follow your plan. One thing is to create action plan, but you have to also follow your plan in order to get some results. So you need choose few strategies that you decide master and stick with these strategies until you have good results. It takes about 3 months.

One of the biggest mistakes is to chose for example article marketing, write 8 articles and if you are not satisfied with results, you pick video marketing and you create 8 videos. After 2 weeks you are again not satisfied with your results and you jump to another strategy. Why people do that? Because they thing that this strategy is not working for them, so they will choose another one. The fact is that they just not learn how to do it properly.

So my advice is to choose 3, 4 strategies and one of them should be paid strategy, create step by step plan and stick with your plan. This is the biggest challenge that every internet marketers face, because it is very easy to be bombarded with different kind of strategies, offers and try to apply all of them.

So for example if you choose content marketing, email marketing, facebook and Google is there a need to watch trainings and read emails on for example banner advertising? The answer is no, because you will be wasting your time and what is the value that you will watch training on banners if you do not have this strategy in your portfolio?

So you choose your strategies and what you need to do is to learn about these strategies and take action. The key to success is persistence. You need to persist in order to get great results, because if you persist you will learn by action and you will get your momentum. Imagine if you write 3 articles per week. After 3 months you will have around 36 articles out there and if you follow what you learned about article marketing you can have a lot of leads for your business.

My conclusion is simple. Choose strategies, create action plan, learn this strategies and take action.

social bookmarking

You may have heard the terms “RSS Feed”, “Pinging” and “Social Bookmarking”, and wondered exactly what it means and how this can help you with your marketing efforts. The answer is that it is very helpful if you explore what they can do for you.

I want to share with you and explain these 3 terms and how you can use them for your getting more traffic and leads.

Social Bookmarking: (sites like Digg, Delicious, Stumble Upon, Mr. Wong…)

Social bookmarking is when you bookmark your favorite sites with link, headline and keywords. You will let search engines know that you created a new content.  The reason we want to do this is easy, authoritative on-way links to your site. Let me explain this further.

Google and other search engines use the number of incoming links to your sites as a barometer of the popularity of your site or blog. They are in essence, “Votes” for your site, and get enough of these, and you will find your rankings starting to improve. The reason they are “authoritative” is that many time they have a great deal of page rank and trust rank, and Google views them as more valuable links. A good example of this would be links from Wikipedia. One way links simply means that they are linking to you, and you are not linking back to them.

You can bookmark every article that you made or every video that you created, but when it comes to bookmarking your blog posts be aware that you should bookmark around 50% of your content otherwise you will be acting spammy and you will be banned from some sites.

Pinging:

Pinging is electrical signal or notification to search engines that your content is available. You will get additional rank for your website. Pinging is very simple and it will take you only a few minutes to ping your new content. Here are some sites where you can ping your content.

http://pingomatic.com

http://www.pingmyblog.com

http://pingler.com

http://bpinger.com

http://pingates.com

You can also do additional pinging when you ping also your blog home page twice a month. Just be sure that you have some new content on your website.

RSS Feeds:

RSS Feed is digital reading of your site.

There are two main RSS categories.
·    RSS feeds where people can subscribe to your RSS
·    RSS Feed submissions

You want to get as many subscribes as possible, because every time you create a new content, they will get notification about it. This way you can get hundreds of visitors every single day. Many blogs have this option automatically, you can check if you can see a little RSS Feed button on your blog.

The second use of RSS is when you submit your RSS Feed to RSS directories. The best thing about it that you need to do this only for the first time and your blog is there almost forever. It will automatically post there your new content from your blog. Google and other search engines goes there several times a day, Google loves them and it is one of the easiest way for Google to find your content.

You can also create Super Feed and submit this Super Feed to RSS directories. Super feed is when you create RSS on your own with your best content. A cool free site that helps create this is http://www.rssmix.com.

And here is partial list of some RSS feed directories:

http://www.blogdigger.com/add.jsp

http://www.blogpulse.com/submit.html

http://www.feedage.com

http://www.2rss.com

http://www.blogstreet.com/bsibin/add.cgi

http://publisher.yahoo.com/rss_guide/submit.php

http://www.plazoo.com/en/addrss.asp

http://www.feedbite.com

http://www.rssfeeds.com

http://feedraider.com

http://www.feedsubmitter.com

http://purerss.com/addfeed.php?catid

http://www.unclefeed.com/rss/addfeed.html

http://www.feedsee.com/submit.html

http://www.feed24.com/?c=add

http://www.feedfury.com

Using pinging, social bookmarking and RSS feeds is a terrific way to not only get your page indexed fast, but get more traffic and exposure for your content and keep your content in front of your readers, which goes a long way toward helping you build authority and stand out from the crowd as a leader.

targeted banner campaign

In previous article Banner advertising: basic terminology and how it works I was explaining some basic information about banner advertising. Today I want to to share with you how to find a website where you can submit your banner and expect that you generate leads for your business.

There are many website where is possible to advertise, but you want to find a website that is relevant to your offer that you have on your capture page. You want to find audience that will be interest in your business, product or service.

How to find a quality website for your banners:

Step one: Create a list of websites to research

Go to Google and start by typing in the keywords your target market would use to search for there are of interest. Start by looking at websites and blogs you personally visit to see if there are any banner advertisements on their site. If so, add this website to your research list. If not, quickly scan the website to see how they make money. If they are running other forms of advertising add them to your research list. If not, move on.

Step two: Research websites

1.)    Alexa.com – Go to Alexa.com and type in the URL of the website you are researching. You are looking for the overall traffic rank as well as traffic rank by country, related links and keywords. In very general terms you are looking for websites with a traffic rank between 1 and 100,000. However there are exceptions to this rule: you may find a highly targeted website with a very loyal following that is well above 100,000 in traffic but still a great place to advertise. They key here is to gain a general understanding of the site, who visit it and how much traffic it receives
2.)    Examine the website

Quality content: Does this website offer the reader valuable content or does it look like the Las Vegas strip a flood of blinking and flashing banner ads? Make sure the site has a good balance of quality content that keeps viewers around. The longer a person is on the website, the more likely they are to click on your banner ad.

Targeting: Does the website attract the type of viewers you want? Does it attract people who would be interested in what you have to offer? Most people want to make more money, so most websites will fit these criteria, but the more targeted your banner ad placement is, the better your results will be.

Place your banner advertisement:

1.)    Understanding placement: Without question you want to be “above the fold” 9the top portion of the website you see when you open it in your browser) so your intended audience will not have to scroll down the page in order to see your banner. This is important because an “impression” is counted every time the page loads. If the page loads, you will be charged regardless if someone sees your banner ad or not and most people do NOT scroll down the first page.
2.)    Start small: While you may be pressured for a long-term contract at a “special rate”, it is always advisable to start with a smaller budget for shorter time period. Explain to the site owner that you are conducting a test run and if your banner does well you will be happy to commit to a long-term relationship with the sire.

Google adwords: You can create a banner campaign within Google Adwords by selecting “site targeted campaign” when you go to create a new campaign. You can choose to set this up on either pay-per-click or CPM basis. You can use Google site targeting to also choose websites that accept banner ad campaign and then contact the site owner directly to negotiate a better deal.

accomplish goals

How many times you heard that you become what you think about? How many times you heard that thought is one of the most powerful forces in the universe? Probably many times, but how to think about all day on what we want rather than what we do not want?

The main problem of many people is that they think about what they do not want. Why is that? Because it is not easy to control our thoughts and think about what we want unless our desire is strong enough. So first thing is that you have to decide what do you really want. What do you really want? Ask yourself honestly, what do I really want?

Sit relax and think about what do you want and then write down your thoughts on piece of paper. It is important to write it down, because I heard one time that if we write what we want, we are more committed and we become more serious about our thoughts and actions.

So write down your goals and dreams on piece of paper and put a paper in your pocket and read it as many times as possible while you go through your day. Read it, say it and think about it all day. This is a great way how to control your thoughts and think about what you want rather than what you do not want.

But remember it has to be something what do you really want, it has to something what get you excited when you think about it. Put your emotions in to it and you will get in to a good vibration and then you will attract everything what you need in order to accomplish your goals and dreams.

If you read what you want many times through your day you are also creating a habit of thinking about what you want. After a few days you will recognize that it is easier for you to think about it and after you create a habit you will do this literally automatically.

It takes about 30 days to create a habit so challenge yourself that you will read what you want every day for 30 days and as many times as possible. You can also create trigger points. I mean every time you go to bathroom you will read your goals, every time you make a phone call, every time you drink a water you will read your goals. It will help you to create a habit and you will be glad you did.

So write down what do you really want on small piece of paper, read it every day for 30 days as many times as possible and after 30 days you will recognize that you changed the way you think and if you become what you think about this is a great way how to control what you think about all day.
