Earn a minimum of $600.00 per week This Free method will rock your socks!

First things first I am going to jump straight into the method. No fluff or fooling around, but before I do you must realize that much like you I had been looking for ways of getting money online, bought loads of E-Books and to Be quite honest with you most of the methods are not very good, won’t work or are a rehash of other methods packaged differently.

Well this approach is different and proven to work!

Now I will share with you the exact method I use that is netting me over $1500.00 per week! So keep an open mind; allow yourself to dream and accept the fact - there are people making money online and it doesn’t have to cost an arm or a leg for fancy programs and mentoring to have a steady income flowing into your bank account!

Like me, you have stumbled upon a Unique method of gaining money that will work 100% of the time! (Now I know lots of people say this but I actually mean it).

  • You get a working method that will generate you some healthy revenue.
  • You will learn to look at things differently, using different strategies.

The Method:

This particular technique will generate at least $600 per month (Minimal effort) and has the potential to net you $4k, $5k , $6k per month (Depending on how dedicated you are – but it does take time!)

What the Method will involve:

It involves promoting an Affiliate program but not to your usual crowd. You will be Advertising a Freebie of some sort.

What you need:
  • A printer (Confused? I thought so).
  • To follow this guide.
  • Join an Affiliate site such as...
  • Domain Hosting (Free host can be used as long as you have access to it via FTP).
Some inexpensive pay-sites are:


These elements will be explained as we go along.

Let’s get started! The first thing that you are going to want to do is find a program to promote. (If you have not joined an Affiliate Marketing site then I suggest you to do it now). The program you are looking for is a PPL (Pay-Per Lead) one that offers free products.

The one I use currently is a ‘free’ Apple iPhone and all it requires is for the User to fill in a few details like their name, address and gender. After they have filled in these Details then I receive $1.50.

Visit the following link for a screen Grab of one offer I am currently promoting.

http://lostiagresearch.com/iph-1.html

This is just an example of something you should go for a simple one page sign-up.

You may be thinking that $1.50 is low and yes it is, but I chose this program for a purpose. I was aiming it at a particular audience. Once you have read further you will see my logic and use it or choose an even higher paying PPL program and promote it using the same technique. You will understand this better once you read my little secret.

So you now have chosen your PPL program. What’s the next step?

It’s easy, all you have to do Is purchase a domain and get some hosting (Free hosting will do as long as you have access via FTP).

As I have chosen a product relating to the iPhone then I should have something related to it or perhaps with the word freebie in it. If you are promoting an iPhone then perhaps you could have a domain such as iPhone4free.net (Taken of course but use your imagination). You don’t need to stick to the product you are promoting as well. You could go for a more general term such as Freebeeez.com, Freebies4u.net, something along those lines.

Once you have decided on the domain = Hosting you are going to want to find the Affiliate program code. Once you have this then simply create a simple redirect with your affiliate program. See example below… Note Use Greater than and Less than characters in place of double parenthesis...

((meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="0; url=http://www.google.com/"))

Paste and edit the http address to your website in notepad or other text editor and save as iPhone.html or something else short and appropriate. You will see that I have placed http://www.google.com/ there, all you have to do is simply delete the google.com and paste your affiliate link.

After this is complete simply upload iphone.html to your hosting account (Connected to your domain of course). Once complete then if you type in your domain it will automatically redirect you to the affiliate program.


Promoting–My little secret:

You should now have your site set up with your chosen affiliate program. Next you’ll need to generate LEADS!

This is my little secret that works like a charm every time. Most Affiliate Marketers are always thinking of ways to get people to view their programs to generate sales/leads but it’s not always easy. Unless you have a high traffic site or are really experienced in the field you will most likely have little success and that’s the truth. It is very competitive and hard to get any thing decent in the long run.

What I do for leads is as easy as making a cup of tea and you will be astonished at how well it works.

My Secret… drum roll please…

You are going to go to the people. Now hold on a second, there is a little more to it than that. In my case I was advertising an iPod and am currently in the process of doing iPhones. Now let’s just take a look at the iPod for a second. Who is it aimed at? You will undoubtedly say that it’s for the younger market. Teens and young adults, those who are ‘tech-savvy’. Now where can you contact these people directly? Facebook? Myspace? Please, that’s just ridiculous. Maybe a few years back that was the place but times have changed. The problem with the Internet is most people will dismiss ‘Free’ products as spam or just another scam site.


So where can you promote? What do I do?

As some of you may know I am a web-designer and I also do some Affiliate Marketing so what I did was create a small leaflet.

On the leaflet it said:


‘Get a FREE iPod. Visit now www.***********.com’

I put some snazzy graphics around it with an image of an iPod. Where to promote? Remember where I said that I needed to go where the products target audience was? Well I went outside a High school, four of them in fact simply Because this worked so well. I stood outside of the High school with my leaflets in my hand just handing them to kids, and lets face it, we all know how gullible 13-17 year old kids are. As I said, I eventually did this to 4 schools in the area. I got my brothers and cousins to help out just handing out these leaflets to school kids. I did it to each school two Or three times depending on how many entrances/exits there were to really get as many people as possible to sign up.

So how well did it work?


Well as I said I did 4 schools, one of which is the second largest in my area. I managed to hand out about 7200 leaflets with some help and the return was nothing short of amazing. Out of those 7200 I had a huge wave of traffic and approx 3120 people signed up making it almost $5000 of revenue and how much did I work for it?

Well I made the leaflet in about 20 minutes. Printed them (You need quite a bit of paper and ink, if you do it yourself) or go to the local print shop and have your original copied. Actually handing the leaflets out was very easy and quick. It took about 40 minutes per school. Again I went back to some schools 2 or 3 times depending on the size etc.

What next?


Well you literally wait and watch the money roll in.

Is that it - pretty much and of course there are always variations to this method. So always remember to go to where people are. For example if you are promoting some Gym related product or even a protein shake or something then maybe spend the day at a Gym and place a bunch of leaflets on their counter. The best thing about it is that it won’t get saturated. There are thousands of schools just waiting for you, thousands of Gyms, thousands of people! Heck you could even post some leaflets around your local area. So do whatever you want!

Conclusion:

The fact of the matter is that not many people are taking advantage of this -- it’s untapped potential and now you know it. I am being really serious when I say that You MUST try this IT actually works and you know you are reaching people, it’s not junk traffic.

This is just one of the techniques I have used and I personally feel people should know about it. Yes it’s simple and it does work!

Google Site Map

Google Site Map

Introduction:

Businesses that want to sell something in the market need 2 things. The first is the product to be sold which has to be made then distributed to places like the grocery, the mall or the supermarket. The second is marketing which is the vehicle to carry that message across to the consumer so that people are aware of its existence and make a decision to purchase it.

The age of the internet has given people the opportunity to make money via the web. There are a lot of websites that offer a person the chance to be seen easily and quickly and one of the best right now is using site maps created by Google.

Benefits of using Site Maps thru Google are the following;

• It helps people find ones web page better than other search engines because of better crawl coverage.

• People will be able to search on certain keywords that the person put in place which will directly lead searchers to ones website.

• It allows the person to provide specific information to Google about the web page such as the last time it was modified or how often it is changed.

• Using Google straight will allow ones web page to be seen quickly which is a lot better than other computer companies who promise to do the same thing but can’t deliver in the end.

Google Site Map Setup:

• The first thing that needs to be done is proper research. The service or product has to fill a need that the customers want right now. It should provide a solution of some kind that will improve the quality of life either at home or at work.

• Next, ensure the product or service is being offered to the customer at a decent price. Sometimes, the product one makes is already available in the market. To be competitive, one must figure out a way to convince people as to why this product is better than the other leading brands available. What features does it have that the competitor doesn’t? What makes it unique which is not only about the product on hand but the service that this can give as well?

• Just like a normal business where business is done on the phone or in a store, one must acquire the right equipment and machines for the job. These could be merchandise that is either physical or electronic and an online ordering system.

• To be successful, one should be sure that the goods that a customer will order can be delivered on time. If there are any problems, a customer support staff or system should be ready to cater to that.

• If business is done with a group of people or a single proprietorship, it is best to brainstorm for the best domain name for the business. It should be catchy and will easily be remembered by people. Given that there are probably other people who have been in the business longer and that it is possible that the domain name has already been taken, it is best to think of several names in case it can no longer be used.

• When a domain name has been selected, one should enter the URL of the website to be created. Google site maker will then crawl the site and create a list of all the links it can find.

• Next, one should fix the control settings. Doing this will determine how frequent the contents of the site changes which will let Google know how often it should be crawled.

• If there are certain URL’s that a person does not wish to be included in ones site, Google can be instructed to bypass it so that it will not be crawled and posted on ones site map. One can select what types of files to be bypassed whether these are .zip or .exe files.

• Also, one has the option of adding the sites FTP information since Google can automatically upload the site map for the person.

Google is not the only search engine which provides this service but in our experience is the best for more information try visiting

Make way USA for M-commerce

M-commerce (mobile commerce) is the buying and selling of goods and services through wireless handheld devices such as cellular telephones and personal digital assistants (PDAs). M-Commerce is known as the next-generation of e-commerce and with smart-card technology is on the cutting edge!

They say that smartcards, especially those enhanced with biometrics, could serve as the new backbone for safe electronic transactions and offer data protection and authentication for surfers on the go.

As more users access the Internet remotely their interest in protecting their data increases proportionately. Smartcards, used widely in Europe and Asia, contain low-cost, low-memory microprocessors, employed in a range of everyday transactions: prepaid phone calls, ATM banking, and public transportation. While smartcards typically require a password or PIN, proponents of biometrics say the science of measuring physical characteristics to verify a person's identity offers greater protection in the e-commerce era. Biometrics include; voice recognition, iris and face scans, and fingerprint authentication.

Passwords and PINS are too easily forgotten or forged. Almost a third of passwords are family members' names or birthdays and Internet fraud costs consumers and businesses $100s of billions annually.

The amount of electronic transactions is so high we need to do something, Credit cards are the main tool for [electronic] purchases, and they just aren't secure enough. As electronic commerce comes to mobile phones, people will demand more security than the credit card.

Businesses and online Entrepreneurs need to drive this technology for their own good and the good of their customers and this is the best time to get onboard. If I asked you today, knowing what you know now, to market Visa/MC services to other merchants before they come out 15-20+ years ago, what would you say? Well today Visa/MC is a trillion dollar companies and among the largest in the world.

So now is your opportunity to save a lot of money by using this product offering for your business and a potential for you to create an additional stream of income for you/your business by referring your current customer base and other merchants to the great product. You can be amongst the first merchant’s to market this new form of payment and service in your area, or world-wide if that’s your desire.

Right now, you can start preregistering other merchants and users on to the new M-Commerce program online. The best part about this is opportunity is the affiliate compensation plan for merchants associated with marketing this great product. Literally, you will have the ability to earn a % of the total spending of your referred user’s and a % of the total payments processed from the merchants you refer onto the SelfBank Mobile program. Make money the way banks do!!!

PPC Advertising for Maximum Web Promotion

Engaging in pay-per-click (PPC) advertising has its own benefits and drawbacks; but what is PPC advertising and what it can do to your business?

Businesses nowadays are taking on different measures when it comes to advertising their products and services. This is because of high rates for placing ads on print and on television. However, there is a fast growing approach that businesses can utilize to bring their services closer to the people and that is through Internet Marketing.

One Internet marketing tool that is growing in popularity is PPC advertising. This is a technique, used in search engine marketing, which requires a fee every time someone clicks an ad on your website. Usually the ad placement is determined through a bidding process. If you are a top bidder for your keywords/phrases, you are sure to be on the number one spot on all search engines. Just be sure of the effectiveness of your ad copy to get the most number of clicks you need for your business.

Benefits of PPC advertising are:

  • You need not be a genius in computer and technology to be able to run this ad campaign.
  • Receive immediate results after a few days.
  • Your website need-not conform to SEO rules.
  • If you do not top the pages in different search engines, you can still benefit choosing PPC advertising.
  • You can make use of any search engine available.
  • You can type in any keyword you like.

Cons of PPC advertising includes:

  • Fixed payments every month to the search engine you choose.
  • Pay for each click received by your website. At times, visitors are just competitors or people playing pranks on search engines. This hassle wastes money you put in to this advertising.
  • Inability to pay for the fees next month would mean removal of your website on the paid listings.
  • This advertising can only be used temporarily because it is difficult to handle in the long run.
  • Pay-per-click pricing can be costly for long periods of time, therefore, this should be stopped after an ad campaign.

How can PPC advertising iincrease traffic, leads and sales?

PRE-QUALIFIED TRAFFIC:

All visitors to your website are a qualified consumer or buyer of your product. PPC advertising leads your customers to you for a less cost.

INSTANT EXPOSURE, IMMEDIATE PROFITS:

PPC search engines enable you to get your desired results fast. They will have your website live within just a few hours to result in an immediate increase in sales.

CONSISTENT TOP LISTINGS:

To get your website on top of the sponsored search results free you just have to choose the keywords related to your site/business and place them within your web pages. After this, you are done.

CONCLUSION:

PPC advertising enables advertisers to control their advertising campaigns. Advertisers can effectively target their audience and set their own price per click. PPC advertising networks provide the platform to identify the desired audience by geographic setting, topic and industry. These networks have a list of website publishers where the ads will be placed.

Tools provided by the networks determine how the pay-per-click limit is working for each advertiser. If it’s still competitive, would it be even listed among the paid search lists or does it generate sales?

Of course, if the advertiser made the highest bid, the better chances the ad will show in the search engine. The networks also provide protection for the advertisers against click fraud. This advertising set-up allows advertisers to set a daily budget for ads, eliminate cost spent for unnecessary clicks and protect your advertising budget.

In PPC advertising, your choice of keywords and phrases are important. You have to select at least ten "very specific" keywords that would give you the best traffic in the search. Then, write the ad creatively but straightforward. Tell the truth about your product or service and do not lie. So make sure you ad delivers on its promise and does not disappoint the consumer. Of equal importance is ad clarity. So don’t use vague language and include important details.

You should also remember to budget your bids. Do not overbid because you will only lose your money and do not go so low that your ads will never get the chance to show up. Check your profit against your spending. If you see no progress then most likely you have to drop or modify your ad campaign.

More and more advertisers have been using PPC advertising and it will continue to grow from revenues of $2.6 billion in 2004 to $5.5 billion in 2009, cost per click will dramatically go up as well from $0.29 to $0.36.

PPC advertising is new in online marketing and it is going to continue in the years to come. For advertisers, this means increased revenues with fewer advertising expenses, savings, more sales, good return of investment (ROI) and effective ad campaigns in the days to come.

So do some research check it out and happy surfing!

Building a Profitable Opt-In List part 1

3 Quick and Easy Ways to Build a Profitable Opt-In List

So, you finally realize that you need a good Opt-In list - after reading the many articles, hearing countless success stories; and you finally decide to have one of your own. Then it happens, you believe you have done everything according to the experts correctly and still you’re unable to make any significant profit.

In fact, you may be losing money. Perhaps you’ve hired writers to assist you, or other expenses may have incurred, and although you possess a big list, only a small percentage are actually making a purchase.

What could have gone wrong? Why have others succeeded where you have failed? The most common mistake is that you dove right in. You chose a topic you thought was quite popular with the potential to influence a purchase but something went very wrong! A common problem with new Opt-In enthusiasts is assuming people will make an instant purchase when in reality most won’t commit to a purchase until they have been contacted seven to ten times!

Well have no fear because today I am offering advice from the experts! If you have never started an Opt-In campaign before or have but previously failed, here are three sure-fire methods for building a profitable Opt-In list campaign.

1. Get your customers to trust you and your products first. Simply launching your Opt-In list would does make you an expert and a believable seller. Put many articles first before you start an Opt-In list. Write about the topic you know and have started and used for your site. Try to put forums first to gain knowledge about your customers about their wants and needs and target those wants and needs.

Join forums from other sites as well. Provide expert advice and recommendations. When you feel that people trust you, you will be able to start your own Opt-In list. You can build a base as well through other forum users. You can ask them to join your list. Friends are always good customers. Put up a link to your site so they may be able to see what your business is all about.

The certain truth is, money will only come when consumers and subscribers have trust and believe in you! Today, consumers appreciate value for their purchases and simply will not buy on a strangers recommendation alone.

2. Find a product or service that people want and need. If you provide a product or service, which you have researched and understand well, you then have a better opportunity to instill consumer trust. Then you may carry forward by Investing your time, effort and money marketing a product or service, which you truly believe in and consumers will see value in making their purchase!

While it is best to market a product or service that you have an interest in, not many may have your same interests. So remember to choose a product or service that is not only interesting (for you) but has the opportunity to be profitable as well! If you perform your research well and market promotional materials which are of value to your consumers and encourage them to share the materials with others you will see your profits begin to come in.


3. Make friends with other Opt-In list users. This will be beneficial especially if you have contact with several successful Opt-In list users who will share their experiences and enable you to avoid mistakes they have made and take advantage of their successful strategies as well! While there are many articles available for you through the Internet, there is nothing as beneficial as a first hand account from someone you trust and the saying goes – “experience is the best teacher”.

An experienced Opt-In list user will provide direction for what to do or not to do with your Opt-In campaign. While different situations occur for different people, the general concept can still be very helpful. There are many things to avoid and these people will be able to tell you which ones.

Remember, building a profitable Opt-In list does not happen overnight and requires preparation and effort! An Opt-in list begins with nothing but should grow to limitless proportions if the list is organized, managed, and maintained well, with happy, satisfied subscribers your profit margin will have limitless possibilities as well!

To your success!
