You Have to Become an Expert

One of the changes I’m making this year is to become an expert at attracting traffic to my website. It’s not enough to just add some good content, do a little blogging and submit to some social networks. That will get you some traffic but it won’t get you the amount of website visitors that you need to make a website profitable. One of the things that some of the most successful marketers don’t tell you is that they either became an expert themselves or they hired an expert. For most of us we don’t have the money to go out and hire experts so we have to study and find out as much as we possibly can and then take action. Seriously, what do you have to lose by spending some of your time on studying the methods that have made other people a fortune?

The thing is that once you have a website that is generating a good number of monthly visitors, making money from that website becomes a whole lot easier. After all, selling is a numbers game. The numbers vary depending on whether the traffic is targeted or not, but it’s still a numbers game.

So go back and have a look at your website now. Do you have lots of unique, quality content? If you were a web surfer and this was the first time you saw that site would you be interested enough to have a look around? Put yourself in their shoes. Also, whenever you click on a link, fill in a squeeze page or click on a splash page – learn from that. Ask yourself what it was that made you want to click on that link or splash page. Learn from everything you see and do on the internet. Learn from other people’s mistakes as well. If you see something that turns you right off a website, make a mental note to NEVER do that on your website.

Don’t just get through the day get FROM the day!

Until next time good surfing!

A Reflection, A Celebration These Seasons

Have great Christmas Season Holidays, Celebration and a Fruitful Victorious New Year!
A season to reflect, to recharge our batteries and prepare for great success or victory ahead.
A time we mastermind together with our business partners, networks or family, review our
plans that may be needed to change for the New Year to help us provide quality services
for our customers or clients.

Is there any other seasons of the year to review your life or business goals and plans?
Do you take small or large reviews of your business operations throughout the year?
Any set times?
We hope you enjoy our short video as a special Christmastime with you.
We hope you don’t mind the golden voice of a Welsh singer her name is Katherine Jenkins
singing a wonderful song called Angel.
Any thoughts or comments if you like the song or not.

Three Ways to Pocket More Affiliate Cash… Starting Today

Affiliate marketing is one of the quickest and easiest ways to make money online. That’s because you don’t have to deal with product creation or customer service headaches. All you have to do is recommend products to desperate buyers. Then you sit back and collect your massive paychecks.

But beware: Your affiliate cash can disappear quicker than snow in June if you don’t protect your commissions. Here are the top three ways to start banking more affiliate cash as soon as today:

1. Stop using direct affiliate links.

You probably already know that it’s a good idea to cloak (hide) your affiliate links. Doing so will help ward off the link hijackers who switch in their affiliate ID for yours, and thus steal your commission when they buy the product. It also virtually reduces the number of buyers who “cut off” the affiliate portion of a link and go straight to the sales page (perhaps thinking that doing so will somehow give them a better deal).

But there’s another reason to use direct affiliate links: Namely, because you could end up with hundreds of “dead” links all over the Internet.

You see, if you make a blog post, Twitter about an affiliate product or include your direct affiliate link in an ebook, then what happens if the vendor stops selling that product? You’ll have dead links. Maybe hundreds of them.

If instead you use a redirect link, you can change the redirect link to point from the dead affiliate link to a similar affiliate product in just a minute or two. And in doing so, you could potentially save thousands of dollars in affiliate commissions.

2. Look for these common sales leaks.

If you don’t vet the sales process thoroughly, you may find that the biggest thief is the product vendor! Sometimes the vendor is just a new marketer who doesn’t know any better. Other times, you may find vendors who are deliberately trying to rip you off.

Here are some things to look for:

Google AdSense ads on the sales page. Some marketers don’t realize that a sales page shouldn’t have any distractions, and that the only way to leave a sales page is via a back button or the buy button. Other marketers know exactly what they’re doing – you send them traffic for free, and they get the money every time someone clicks on their ads. Either way, avoid these vendors.

Alternative payment options. Another sneaky way product vendors reach into your pocket is by offering multiple payment options on the affiliate landing page. This is only troublesome IF you don’t credit if the customer chooses a different option.

For example, if the vendor uses Clickbank for affiliate tracking, then obviously you won’t get a penny if the vendor encourages customers to call their orders in.

Customer service reps that send visitors to a new page. Watch out for this sneaky trick: sometimes when a prospect has a question, the customer service rep (or the vendor) sends the customer to a different sales page. End result? You lose the commission!

3. Find out what loopholes the vendor will use to keep your money.

Here’s one last tip: Always read the TOS (terms of service) and affiliate agreement. Sometimes you’ll find outrageous payment thresholds that allow the vendor to legally keep your money until you reach that threshold! Other times the vendor charges a huge “accounting fee” just to cut you your check.
