Marketing is the
Hardest Part for Most People
Now you may think that the rules
and regulations of SPAM make Internet Marketing too much
of a risk or is too complex for you to bother with -
don't worry, this is a response that many people have -
but if you really want to succeed you will see here how
many ways there are to tackle marketing that does not
involve SPAM - so stay with me here.
Building your website is your
half-way mark , and that's the easiest half at that! The most difficult, but equally
important "half", is now beginning - and that's to market
your site to a level where you are successfully
generating a flow of sustained traffic to your site.
I cannot stress how critical this
stage is - you MUST take
steps to maximize an excellent return on your marketing
efforts. The first thing you must do is
make sure your website is optimized before submitting
your site to the search
engines.
Do not, however, rely purely on submitting your site to search engines
for your traffic. It's imperative that you look at other advertising avenues for
promoting your site and advertising your products.

Look Beyond the Obvious
Always keep in mind the reason why
you're
advertising - what
do you want from your ad in return for your dollar?
OK - I know you want to make money -
that's fine - but in order to make money you've got to
sell your product or, if you are going down the "affiliate"
route, you've got to obtain sales for the product that you are
affiliated too - right?
So, in order to make money from selling your "product" -
whatever it is - you've got to have someone to sell it too -
Agreed? ...
... so, I'll ask you again - what
do you want from your ad in return for your dollar?
That's right - you need
Leads!- and that
applies to all products - and especially so if you're in a
service (intangible) industry - LEADS are absolutely
vital!
Choose a Suitable Method
There are many different methods
of advertising and, particularly if you're a "newbie, we strongly suggest you take a look at all the different
marketing methods and try a few that appeal to you to see
how you feel about actually using them.
Always bear in mind that not all forms of advertising work
for all people - just because someone tells you they are using "XYZ
promotions" and are getting a "phenomenal success" with
it does not mean YOU will get the same success. We are individuals - so you have to find
your own preferred methods.
Now I'm sure you're wondering why I've
said that - so look at this way -
marketing
is a critical part of your future success and if we
are not happy about doing something (no matter what that
"something" is) it quickly becomes a grueling task - agree?
...
... so the last thing you want to become
a "grueling task" is marketing - because
without it you
will NOT be generating leads -
no leads = no sales = no
business!
No matter which form of
marketing you do, it's no good just
blindly promoting your business - you will be marketing amongst several million other
people so - and this is very important -
Make Sure Your Ad's Stand Out From
The Crowd !
