Get A Ton of Free Website Traffic Today!

2009-08-07T22:06:00.000-07:00

Not making the level of sales that you'd
like? It's probably not your fault. The main
reason is that you're not getting enough traffic
to your website. You have to get the traffic
before any of the other factors come into play.

If you are like most online entrepreneurs, you've
been mislead about HOW to generate more traffic to
your website. You've read course after course on the
topic, but those courses were often ghostwritten by
individuals who were totally clueless about website
traffic generation and inbound marketing strategies.

Big name gurus often described the course that they
wanted written on outsourcing sites, and then went
with the lowest bidder on the writing project. Then
they hawked their courses through some hyped-up
product launch, where most of those selling the
course didn't even bother to read it, and notice the flaws.

I've been in business online for a few years
because I have learned how important it is to successfully
generate massive free traffic to my sites. I've done this
primarily through generating "content" - mainly articles.

Your customers go online looking for solutions to their problems.
When you have lots of content scattered across cyberspace,
your customers find what you've shared, read or listen to it,
and then click through to your site. They arrive at your site
pre-sold on YOU and ready to buy your products. It's as simple
as that!

This has worked for over a dozen years, and continues to work
great today. The only changes have been that now multi-media
(video, and audio) are a very necessary part of the content mix.

What's also changed is that you now need more articles, videos,
audios, and press releases to break through the clutter and get noticed.
In some niches, you have to publish dozens, maybe even hundreds
of articles, to become the dominant expert. Then you need to get your
content out to the top article directories, video sharing sites, podcast
sites, and press release sites.

That sounds like a huge job, and without automation it is! However,
there are sites where you upload your content to a server, select
which sites you want it submitted to, click the submit button,
and it's taken care of. This allows you to do in about 2 minutes
what it would take you hours to do manually.

I personally use and recommend Easy Push Button Traffic. Easy
Push Button Traffic currently costs 1/4 as much as it's leading competitor,
Traffic Geyser, and works beautifully.

With Easy Push Button Traffic, you can submit an unlimited
number of articles, videos, podcasts, and press releases each month
for one low price. Other sites issue you so many credits per month - NOT
unlimited submissions.

Easy Push Button Traffic is also 100% whitehat. They do not encourage
you to do things such as spinning content, or submitting the same
content multiple times with different titles. The sites that you submit
to eventually catch on to this type of nonsense, and then they will
ban you, then all of your work will be for nothing. EPBT encourages
you to think long-term, and focus on having a steady flow of quality traffic.

There are no big secrets to website traffic generation. I have
found the easiest ways to generate free traffic though, and it's
"standing in front of the traffic" by generating lots of content.

Take a look at Easy Push Button Traffic now. Since you're my subscriber, or
have found your way to my website, I've got a special deal for you.
When you use this link, you can get in for only $1.

EASY PUSH BUTTON TRAFFIC SPECIAL

The $1 special is not mentioned anywhere on the
website. But use the link above, then when you click
through to the order form, you'll see the $1 special
offer. I'm not sure how long that special will last,
so go ahead and get in now.

Go ahead and turn up your traffic, and sales, today.

JV Partnerships and Inbound Marketing (Part 2 of 3)

2009-05-27T09:27:00.000-07:00

Moving from outbound to inbound marketing has become the method of choice to connect product owners with targeted customers and in so doing adding more value to the product offering that the customer sees.

JV partnerships are, simply put, the way that product owners or product developers match their offering to individuals who own large lists of potential buyers, who in turn promote that product to their considerably larger customer base. This strategy isn't a new one, since joint ventures are really leveraging strengths for some economic, political or social goal. This process in many cases is facilitated by a JV broker or specialist, who provides the service of bridging the gap between the passionate product owner, the large list holder and the customer.

The critical problem that that approach solves is that for many new product owners the major limitation they have is a large customer base. List owners or JV partners don’t have this problem. Their problem is a little different more in the form of whose product do I want to promote, yours or mine? The main question that I am often asked is, how do you go about finding JV partners? The answer isn't a simple one, but properly matching the product and product owner with the partners area of expertise and e-mail list profile is one of the first steps.

The key issue here is that this matching process forms part of what any good marketer seeks to achieve anyway, whether in the B2B or B2C space is really no surprise. The trick really is in the tools that are used to achieve that goal. Knowing what the JV partners interests are and communicating relevant information to them through your blog posts, comments on their websites, membership sites, groups etc, is the norm. This approach becomes even more important in very competitive niches, where message dilution is a constant threat.

Bearing this in mind, putting in place simple and readily available and visible social web tools and leveraging the back end technology that optimizes for the search engines, is a significant advance to help you communicate more directly with your prospects, customers, vendors and clients.

It is safe to say that Inbound marketing as apart of the marketing matrix is here to stay and as a business strategy, it prepares your customers to be receptive to your offering, by adding more value. Understanding how to harness inbound marketing tools and technology is therefore a necessity, before, during and after JV partnership formation.

Understanding the Internet Marketing Joint Venture Process - Part 1 of 3

2009-04-22T16:34:00.000-07:00

SOME BACKGROUND
To many, the internet is a marvelous venue to build relationships, connect with people, conduct research on practically any subject under the sun and to create business opportunities. Unlike off-line businesses, the challenges of growing an online business, rests squarely in two areas. First, understanding how to attract web traffic to the website and second to establish online credibility, but lets focus a bit on the former. The issue of website traffic.

A POWERFUL EXAMPLE
The success of Google as a search engine platform, for example, rests on that company's ability to continuously out compete and out perform new and older search engine companies, in continuously attracting a steady flow of traffic. Alexa.com reports that global search engine traffic over the last 3 months, from January to March 2009, sees Google.com with a traffic rank of 1 has 30.85%, Yahoo.com 26.54% and MSN live.com with 19.33%. To put this data in perspective internetworldstats.com reports that there are 1,596,270,108 internet users globally and of these 30.85% of there online search activities goes through google.com!

Well that's all well and good, if you are google, yahoo or msn, but for an individual with a websites and a product to market through that website, the likelihood of receiving even 0.00001% of that traffic is a major undertaking. Achieving that goal would require really good search engine optimization strategies, building social networks (i.e twitter, facebook, myspace etc), running ad campaigns, and e-mail campaigns to name a few. Again to put this into perspective, according to alexa.com the website luxurylaunches.com, with a traffic rank of 64,281, sees just over 0.002% of all global web traffic!

THE PURPOSE OF YOUR WEBSITE
Websites are designed to achieve wide and varied goals, based on the niche, the content, the type of audience etc. Understanding how to bring traffic to a web site, for what ever reason is therefore the key behind successful websites and the down fall of others. For simplicity however we can reduce the over arching goals of a website to three key objectives.

1) To provide a continuous flow of quality information to visitors.

2) To gain information about your customer or visitor, i.e. e-mail and physical addresses, telephone numbers, product tastes and preferences etc

3) To facilitate a commercial transaction for goods and services i.e. digital products (software, electronic books, audio books, music, etc), physical products (cars, appliances, clothing etc), membership sites and so on.

The problem is that, with a new product or service in hand ready for marketing online, you probably don't have any traffic coming to your site. This creates the perfect opportunity for you to begin looking for a JV partnership.

THE INTERNET JOINT VENTURE
The purpose of an internet joint venture (JV for short) is to harness or leverage traffic coming to a website with products that visitors to that site would be willing to take 1 of the 3 above action.
From a theoretical point of view, the joint venture is based on what has been described as the so called "1 (JV Client) to 1 (JV partner) to X (target audience) model". In which one client with a single product or group of products, partners with a large list holder or JV partner, to gain access to a specific customer base that can range from thousands to millions!

Sounds simple doesn't it? And it is once you understand the rules, the objectives of the client, the partner and the needs of the online consumer. As the number of internet users has grown, so has the opportunity and need for product owners to want to form joint venture partnerships to strengthen their product's position in a very competitive market place. In the next article we will tackle the anatomy of an internet joint venture.
