Blogging (blog comes from the term Web log which is similar to an online diary) is a marketing tool many businesses foolishly do not use. When a blog is done well it creates a conversation between you and your client community, driving traffic to your site as the result of search engine results. You can share news about your business, information and resources and ask for input from readers. Blogging is easy and not necessarily time-consuming.

Assuming your business has a Web site, your Web hosting company or webmaster can add a blog on fairly easy. Because there are so many hosting sites and Web software, we can’t do step-by-step instructions for each of them. If, by chance, you do not have a Web site yet or you cannot add a blog to it, there are blog sites online that offer free blogging with a lot of easy-to-use features. Try Typepad, Blogger or Wordpress. Just being with a basic template and follow some of our suggestions on what to add.

Plan on posting to you blog no less than one time per week, but you can post daily or more if you want. Most blog posts are a few paragraphs, 200-600 words total. Blogging establishes you as an expert so write about what you know. If you are a hair salon owner, write about beauty trends. If you are an accountant, write about all things money: making it, saving it, investing it. But be consistent. Over time you will build a following if you keep putting out content that answers the question “what do my customers want to know?”

It is important to link to other Web sites within your blog posts. If you are a hair stylist and you mention a particular hair product and link back to their site, or you are an accountant who links to a particular magazine site when someone does a search on those businesses, the odds increase your site will be in the results! Be patient and you will develop a following because you are meeting your customers’ needs by providing content they can use.

When you are blogging, remember to encourage comments from your readers. Using open-ended questions at the end of a blog post increases the likelihood readers will comment in your discussion area. The more engaging your site, the more often people will return and the more likely they are to link to your site which will increase your traffic.

Do add a “blogroll” to your site. A blog roll is a list of other blogs you read. Reward others, even within your industry, who you enjoy reading. This builds relationships and goodwill, which may pay off later on. If you use a particular vendor that you are happy with, link to their site in your blog roll. You can also start a We Recommend list for others you respect and who have served you well.

There are many ways to add images and video to your blog at little or no cost. Using graphics makes your blog more appealing and dynamic. Do an online search for free-images and you will be taken to various sites that offer a huge variety of images. You can also do searches for video, most of which will give you the easy-to-use HTML code to copy and paste into your blog. Use images and videos that make sense to the post and drive the message home.

Some of you simply lack confidence in your writing or you don’t have the time. Don’t fret over this. You can easily find your choice of professional writers to blog for you. Posts range from $5-15 each or less, especially if you purchase via a monthly package. Your “problogger” can not only handle the actually writing, but will usually be able to add images, video and field comments for you. Just be patient as your writer learns your “voice” and how you would deliver information.

Blogging is a must if you are trying to get your name “out there”. It can help get you noticed by improving traffic, helps you build relationships with others in your field and customers and also establishes you as an expert. Additionally, you provide a legitimate service to your readers. Blogging, which can be fun and easy, is an additional marketing tool you can add to your toolbox.

Today I received a long letter from a man who created a new self-defense system. He claims he can defeat anyone in under 3 minutes.

He wants me to promote him and his method. He went on to say he’d be happy to meet with me to prove his skills.

What did he have in mind?

He wants to beat me up.

I’m serious.

“If I can defeat you within 3 minutes,” he said in his letter, “then you promise to promote me and my products. Deal?”

He went on to give me the contact information for his agent so I could set up the match.

It might have made an interesting webcast. I can just see the headline:

“51-year-old formerly obese Internet Marketing Expert meets 30-year-old Superman-fit Martial Arts Expert in Quick-Kill Match. Register now.”

Gee, I wonder who would win?

I’d lose even if I went armed.

What would you have done?

How would you have responded to his offer?

Unless you’re a fighter looking for a match, you’d probably toss this offer in the trash.

I often wonder what people are thinking. Does this guy really think I’ll fight him? And then, if I lose, I’ll gladly smile and start marketing him?

I don’t claim to be a fighter and am not seeking bouts. I’m also not seeking new clients. Especially clients who want to break my nose to prove they are better than me.

When you reach out to anyone, keep in mind that no one likes to be told they are inferior. It is not a good way to win friends and influence people. In fact, it’s not a good way to do much of anything.

I think the lesson here is that we all have egos. The better way to approach people is to put your ego under theirs.

In other words, be willing to lower your status. Don’t flaunt your stuff. Instead, show your weakness and ask for help.

This nervy fighter might have done better by offering to teach me his new method, not offering to embarrass me with it.

Contrast his behavior to that of a man in Florence, Italy. This gent heard I loved leather jackets. He went and bought two of them and sent them to me, gratis.

I’ll never forget *him*.

This works in your marketing, too.

Rather than boast that you or your business is the greatest, focus on how you or your business can make your customer or client the greatest.

Or surprise your customers by giving them gifts (much like this article is a gift). People love to be surprised on the positive side.

See the difference?

This redirection of focus can trigger a true transformation in your sales.

Take heed.

See you in the ring.

There’s a way to sort through the many here-today-gone-tomorrow business-printing companies and come up with the one that truly is the best, state-of-the-art business printer.

Finding it difficult to determine which of the self-proclaimed “best” and “state-of-the-art” digital-printing companies really is the best for your business’s needs? Wondering if it is possible to find the company that is truly the next generation of business printing?

Yes. When searching for a company to fulfill your business’s requirements – whether it be offset or digital printing, posters, convention printing, high-volume copying, design, binding, or whatever your specific needs are – you can find the printing company that will meet your needs when other companies can’t.

First, look for an established company that was in business back when starting a business meant more than registering a domain name – back when word-of-mouth and reputation meant something. Now, with the Internet, starting a business is as simple as registering a domain name. By choosing established businesses, you’ll avoid the here-today-gone-tomorrow businesses.

Next, make sure the company you choose can help in all of the digital-communication areas, because digital communication takes many forms, not just printing. Make sure the company you choose offers diverse printing and communication services – like both offset and digital printing – so you can be sure they have the technology to fit your needs, instead of making your needs fit into their technology.

Customer service is another important factor when finding the printing and communications company that’s right for you. It is important that regardless of what a job entails, and how big or small it is, the customer comes first and is treated as a partner. Look for a company that offers various levels of service. While some customers need personalized full-service and custom quoting – like the customer who prefers dealing with a person, and who wants to be led through the order process step-by-step – others prefer the self-serve approach. Those customers are better served with automated sales options, with instant price quotes and online file uploading, so transactions can be done with a few clicks of the computer mouse, any time of the day.

And because being a full-service communication provider isn’t just about printing anymore, choose a company on the cutting edge of technology that continues to grow and offers additional services like variable data printing (personalized printing), video production, OCR scanning and archiving of documents for fine arts, DVD replication or wide format poster printing and banner printing and more.

And while you’re at it, why not choose a printing and communications company that’s “green.” According to the Institute of Sustainable Communications, the paper industry is the largest user of water and the fourth largest user of electricity in the world. So opt for a company that uses environmentally responsible eco-friendly inks, recycled papers and electronic document delivery whenever possible. These steps, even in a small way, can benefit the planet and energy consumption.

The leading fast-turnaround offset and digital print provider, NextGeneration Printing, Copying & Digital Communication, meets all of that criteria. It was confident enough to select the name “NextGeneration,” knowing it meant the company would always have to be on the cutting edge of the printing and communication industries. Companies in England, Germany, France, South Korea, Australia, Mexico, Russia, Ireland and Barbados, not to mention most all U.S. states have chosen NextGeneration to produce their critical and time-sensitive printed materials.

If you are knowledgeable in your field you can convey this by writing articles that others will find helpful. You have the ability to establish yourself as an expert and people will come to you when they need advice or ideas.

Naturally, the next logical question is: aHow do I become an expert?a One of the best ways to begin building your reputation as an expert in any area is by writing and publishing content online. Things like press releases, to aHow-Toa guides and general articles will begin to increase your reader base and showcase what you know.

Most of the people that are online are searching for an answer to a question. Why canat you be the one to provide them with what they are seeking? For example, if you are an expert on scrapbooking, you can write articles related to the subject that they may find helpful in providing them the answers they seek.

It is important to keep in mind that in order to establish yourself as an expert, you must actually be knowledgeable on the particular subject. You must provide helpful, top rate information. If you are unsure on the topic, do not write about it.

When you attract a reader base, your goal should be to entice them to return. You want to establish yourself to be their number one source to turn to when they need information. You do this by presenting your background and tell them why you are an expert. Then tell them what you will be writing about in the future. Keep them entices and wanting more.

Once you have gotten your name out and had an article published on the basics, itas time to showcase your depth of knowledge a little more. Taking your internet marketing prowess to the next level, you could write an article about internet marketing SEO. Titles like these require your readers to gain a pre-requisite knowledge of the subject, which will take them back to referencing your first article. Now you are officially on your way to being the subject matter expert using articles as a vehicle.

The above strategies will work for any topic you may be writing on. Your goal is to gain popularity and become known as an expert in the fields. The goal is to create a brand by marketing yourself as the person to come to when one is seeking information.

Although you may be ready to dive in, you need to have patience and understand that the process will take time. You will not instantly become popular. Your reputation will grow as you publish your well written articles and show the world that you are knowledgeable.

If you are wondering whether or not pay per click is better than a Yellow Pages ad for getting customers aware of your company, you are going to want to understand how important pay per click is for your company. Last century, the Yellow Pages played an important role, but now pay per click has taken over and is now the best way to get your name (and contact information) out for people to see. If you don’t know why the Yellow Pages are dead, you may be a bit confused. Here is why you need pay per click for your business.

When you think about your telephone book, you probably realize that it has been a while since you used it. In fact, you probably only use it to look up the number for the pizza delivery company, and the rest of the time it ends up sitting on top your refrigerator gathering dust. If you take it down and look at how old it is, it’s probably quite a few years old. Now, think about your computer. If you turn it on and search for something in a search engine, you probably know that all the information you get is up-to-date. Sure, there is a lot of rubbish on the Internet, but if you’re searching for something specific, you are going to find what you are looking for pretty quickly. In fact, most people can find the information that they are looking for on the Internet quicker than they can even find their Yellow Pages directory, let alone open it and find the listing.

So pay per click advertising is more convenient than Yellow Page advertising for people to find, but there has got to be other reasons why it is better. The vast majority of households have the Internet now, so it means that you are going to have everybody’s attention. Plus, if you think about it, a lot of young adults and even middle-aged adults are more comfortable searching on the Internet than they are using the Yellow Pages. It’s a lot more convenient to find what you are looking for. Plus, most people know that they are going to get a better selection of choices when using the Internet.

A lot of Yellow Page directories have gone entirely online, meaning that people are going to get on their computer to find the information anyways. The nail in the Yellow Pages coffin is the fact that many people aren’t getting free Yellow Page directories anymore. If you put a Yellow Page ad in, the number of people who see your company’s information decreases. A pay per click is going to increase that number to everyone on the Internet.

If you get a telephone call from the telephone company telling you about the specials they have on full page Yellow Page advertisements, you are going to want to tell the caller about all of the web traffic and profits that your business saw from your last pay per click campaign and that you are going to use your advertising money wisely.

Article directories are websites that house free articles. These articles are usually put there by whoever owns the copyright to them as a promotion method. Each article has the owners byline placed under it so that those who eventually read the article will know who wrote it (or at least who owns it) and will be able to get in contact with or visit their website for further information.

Articles directories are a great place to put your articles so that they will make you money. By using this method, people who are interested in your product or service will see your article, view you as an expert in the subject, and will visit your website. Even if you cannot write or do not have any knowledge on the subject on which you are promoting (for example for you run an affiliate website), you can always hire a writer to do the work for you. Getting quality articles written will be expensive up front, but they will pay for themselves in no time, either through affiliate sales or selling your own services, and everything from then on is pure profit.

Let’s take a real life example. Imagine that you are an accountant working from home. You write an article on an accounting topic and place it on various article directories. Those who are looking for the subject you wrote about will read your article, see that you have the knowledge and skill that is needed to do a job for them, and visit your website or contact you via e-mail. Your article just gained you a new client who may use your services regularly, but will definitely give you a nice profit at least once.

Furthermore, since you have posted it on a free article directory, others who have affiliate websites about accounting will inevitably use your article for their website. Since they must attach your byline to it, this will bring you even more exposure for every website that re-posts your article. This because you will be benefiting of off the traffic that they get to their website.

In conclusion, the more you are willing to pay per article, the more bids you will get from quality writers who know how to entertain and inform your website visitors so that they keep coming back for more. Writers know that you will eventually make a ton of money off of each article or content piece. So although $30 or more for a 500 word article may seem like a lot, when you think about the service they are providing you and the time and effort that they put into your piece, then you will realize that it really is not a lot for that one article. If you pay for quality, you will be amazed at how much you will eventually make off of your articles.

Your article just gained you a new client who may use your services regularly, but will definitely give you a nice profit at least once.

From there, writers will make bids on your project and provide you with writing samples so that you can get an idea of their skill level. Make sure that you choose a writer who gives you a sample of the type of article that you are looking for. For example, if you are looking for a copy-writer, do not hire someone who only sent you a sports writing sample. He or she may be an outstanding sports writer, but copy-writing is about selling (a product, service, or yourself) to your website visitors.

There are numerous article directories out there for you to utilize. Your bet best is to put a copy of each of your articles on every one for maximum exposure. It will eventually help to bring more traffic and customers to your website, which will lead to new orders and more profit.

You should make a website as well. Clients will look at your website as if it were a storefront window. Potential clients can also use it to examine your work before they hire you. Your site should be neat, easy to read, and professional looking.

Build Your Network

It is very important to network with other copywriters in order to get your name out into the industry. If no one knows who you are then you won’t get any clients, despite how good you may be. You should go to seminars with other freelance copywriters and start letting people know you exist. You can also try to team up with other copywriters on big projects. Do some work for free in order to build a client base and generate some testimonials. These things will help get your name into the industry.

Educate Yourself

Improving the quality of your copy is very important, no matter how good you are. Your writing is the bases for your entire business, so you should be constantly trying to better it. The best copywriters are the ones that see themselves as life long students. You should investigate some copywriting and freelancing tutorials on the Internet. You can also sign up for coaching courses and workshops with successful copywriters. Many successful freelance copywriters offer products that teach about their success and what makes them good copywriters. These are a great resource into the industry. Reading books by the experts helps as well. You should check some books by Dan Kennedy because he’s one of the foremost experts on the subject.

You should also write everyday. Stephen King once said that writing was like working-out at the gym. You only get stronger if you go often. The same is true for writing, the more you write the better you will get. Therefore you should write some everyday and try to mimic those great writers before you. This will help improve your copy immensely.

Hopefully this article has helped you understand how to start a freelancing career. Freelance copywriting is a very rewarding and flexible job. It gives you a level of freedom you can’t find in most careers. If you want to learn more about freelance copywriting, then you should do some more research into the subject.

Over the years, the industry of internet marketing has developed to the point where incorporating an online marketing plan is absolutely essential for any company wanting to succeed in the future. Search engine marketing and search engine optimization are the most popular forms of internet marketing as they can drive lots of targeted traffic to your website. Down below is a list of some of the most important lessons about the strengths and weaknesses of search as a medium:

– Search should not be thought of as a stand alone marketing medium – PPC (Paid Search) is better for accomplishing some goals than SEO is – SEO is better for accomplishing some goals than PPC is – Content is KING – Content is KING (did we say that already?)

Perhaps one of the most powerful of these lessons however, is that as powerful as search is, it CANNOT compensate for a faulty business model.

Faulty Business Model

Sure, in the short term a good SEO can help. Those rankings will often bring in some business through targeted traffic from the major search engines like Google, Yahoo and MSN. Unfortunately, those same good rankings can also help to conceal problems within the business model.

What is a Good Business Model?

What does a good business model consist of? It’s usually a direct function of the relative value:price ratio for a product or service amongst competitors, sprinkled with a whole lot of common sense.

However, if anything is amiss – the company is doomed for failure, expert SEO or not.

Why Are Companies with Faulty Business Models Doomed?

Companies with faulty business models are doomed for a number of reasons. Primarily however, they’re doomed because search engines want to recommend sites that SATISFY searcher’s needs. Almost by definition, companies with faulty business models cannot satisfy clients and searchers, because either:

– Their price is too high given the value of the product or service – Their value is too low given the price of the product or service – Common sense is lacking, severely distorting the value:price ratio – and we suspect this is by far the most common

Long term (in a few more years – not yet though) this means search engines will look at your friend’s preferences and opinions (aka social search), and the behaviour patterns of thousands of other searchers, and will rearrange rankings based on those indicators. The result – faulty business models lose.

What Does This Mean for SEO’s and the Industry of Internet Marketing?

As a result, SEO and internet marketing companies in the future will have to make some interesting business decisions:

– do we accept or retain clients with faulty business models? – how do we identify clients with faulty business models – what are the signals? – do we attempt to become management/change consultants too?

What Does This Mean for Businesses?

Ultimately, this means that companies must focus their time and efforts on what it is they do best. They need to ensure they’ve got solid defensible business models. The more sound the business model, the easier it will be to rank for relevant terms. If not, make the tough decisions, and correct the issues, or Google will!

Are you tired of working for your employer? Do you feel you need to work near to your children? Do you want financial success? Do you need steady revenue? Home business is an investment where you work from home, under no pressure or hustle for traffic jam.

Features of home business

This type of business is mostly independently owned and it operates from the home as the office. The number of employees is normally small and family members as the owners and the employees mostly manage it at the same time. Home business turn out is small and advertisement of business is not in large scale like other business enterprises.

Management of home business is the shortest and the quickest way of making money online and it requires patience, resilience, perseverance, and most of all discipline. The business owner is the overall performer in that he is the accountant, supervisor, customer care agent, manager and other positions that their home business requires. The owner can as well choose to employ other people if it is necessary.

Working from home has many benefits. Other than being your own boss, you enjoy financial stability, and freedom of working at odd hours provided you meet your clients’ demands and quality.

Pre-selling is the often overlooked art of persuading your customers that your product is exactly what they want, need or desire and they would really lose out if they didn’t purchase it. The idea is to do this without actually “selling” “the mentioned product.

Selling yourself before you even get to the product is one aspect of pre-selling. When people feel good about you they are naturally more inclined to do business with you.

Building up anticipation is an important aspect of pre-selling as well. Let’s say a friend you told you he bought a product that increased his web traffic by 200% but didn’t reveal the name. You’d be salivating waiting for him to reveal the goods, right? That’s the power of anticipation.

That’s why giving a strong benefit statement is so important. This will instantly get your prospects attention and having them eating out of the palm of your hand as they wait for the next step, the solution to their problem.

However, pre-selling is not just about unveiling your product bit by bit. In fact, that is only one of the many ways one can pre-sell. For example, you might run a weekly newsletter on the power of video marketing and coincidentally you have just written this great e-book called “Quick Video Marketing Traffic Formula”.

Including a snippet or two from the e-book and a explaining many of the benefits the full version would provide is also a great way to build anticipation and increase sales.

The bottom line, it’s about building up the value of your product or service before you ask for the sale. When you do ask for the sale, make sure you’re helping people solve their problems and you’ll be in business for many years to come.

You understand that advertising is the key to building a successful online business so you are light years ahead of many of your competitors. Most of your time should be spent (I’d say up to seventy percent) promoting and marketing your business. In the paragraphs that follow, we’ll be looking at which type of advertising is better for you.

Just so that we are clear, I don’t believe in free advertising. It’s not that you can’t advertise your business without pulling out your credit card but you can’t advertise without paying a price. It’s either time or money and ultimately both have a price you’ll have to pay.

Now that you are clear that either way there is a cost involved you must decide how to proceed. Determining how much you time is worth or how much time you have to dedicate to your marketing efforts is the first place to start. Then you must determine your personal ability to carry out certain tasks as well.

There are some pros and cons to each from each type of advertising but I think the concept that you must keep in mind is effectiveness. If something is free and it doesn’t work very well then that is of no benefit to you. Compare that to a paid ad that works and I’ll take the paid ad every time.

Let’s look at the upside when it comes to free advertising first. Free advertising gives you hands on experience and the necessary background to make more informed decisions when you decide to use paid methods. It also allows you to get a feel for the marketplace and become an expert in areas which drives up your perceived value in the online community as well.

When it comes to automated (paid) advertising I recommend starting small and gradually building up to larger marketing campaigns. This allows you to test the waters and improve your conversion ratios as you go. This will also allow you to accomplish other things in your business while your advertising consistently runs in the background.

Now regardless which way you decide to go I recommend you set up tracking systems so you can test your results. Not knowing what’s working and why it’s working is one of the worst positions you can be in as a marketer. When you understand the source of your results you can make wiser decisions with both your time and money.

At the end of the day you must determine which method (paid or free) is right for you. I recommend trying out a few types of both advertising methods and master them before moving on. Spreading yourself too thin will ultimately have an impact on your results as well. Find an advertising method you feel comfortable pursuing and become very proficient is the best way to move forward.

Web design is a very important part of operating your online business. The meaning of having a web attendance is very important for todays for selling a serious way.

Some good tabs to include ware products, shopping cart, about the company, contact information, and frequently asked questions. You don’t take too lightly to the website. You can design your tabs to fit the product or service you are offering.

This activity of giving cash gifts has a progressive potential. Many people tend to have misgivings about cash gifts but their success story has spread like a bonfire around the globe. This has cleared doubts among the would-be beneficiaries and even driven the need high.

The fact that you are wondering which type of advertising is better leads me to believe that you understand marketing is clearly the life blood of your online business. The large majority of your time should be spent advertising and promoting in some form or another. Let’s talk about which is better between paid vs free marketing methods.

Before we move forward and for the record, I don’t believe free advertising exists. There is always a cost associated with advertising. It will either be cold hard cash paid upfront or your time. Neither of these is free and the reality is you need to determine what price are you willing to pay.

Now that you are clear that either way there is a cost involved you must decide how to proceed. Determining how much you time is worth or how much time you have to dedicate to your marketing efforts is the first place to start. Then you must determine your personal ability to carry out certain tasks as well.

There are some pros and cons to each from each type of advertising but I think the concept that you must keep in mind is effectiveness. If something is free and it doesn’t work very well then that is of no benefit to you. Compare that to a paid ad that works and I’ll take the paid ad every time.

Let’s look at the upside when it comes to free advertising first. Free advertising gives you hands on experience and the necessary background to make more informed decisions when you decide to use paid methods. It also allows you to get a feel for the marketplace and become an expert in areas which drives up your perceived value in the online community as well.

With paid advertising on the other hand, there are also some strong arguments as well. Typically with a paid advertising you can consult with vendors to determine the
expected outcome based on their experience. It is leveraged so it saves you time that can be used building your business in other ways.

Now regardless which way you decide to go I recommend you set up tracking systems so you can test your results. Not knowing what’s working and why it’s working is one of the worst positions you can be in as a marketer. When you understand the source of your results you can make wiser decisions with both your time and money.

Your time and budget will ultimately determine which advertising methods are best for you. I suggest trying a few methods that interest you and use them until you feel comfortable and somewhat proficient. Don’t try to do a little bit of everything as this does not work. Pick something, stick to it and then move to another method while tracking your results throughout.

Copywriting is a great job that can weather a difficult economy well. This is because businesses always need to advertise their products despite the condition of the economy. A good businessman knows that cutting the advertising budget will only hurt sales in the long run, therefore they continue to employ copywriters in difficult economic times.

On top of that, freelance copywriting takes the security of copywriting and combines it with the benefits of freelancing. As a freelancer you get to dictate your work schedule, your workload, and you can work from anywhere in the world as long as you have an Internet connection. You can make more as a freelancer as well because you don’t have to split your income with a parent company or an advertising agency. You can also take on more projects at once as long as you meet your deadlines.

As a freelancer, you work on a project-to-project basis. You apply for a project, the client examines your bid, and if you win the bid they give you a contract with a deadline for completion. This means you can dictate when you work because you only need to get the project done by the deadline, other than that your schedule doesn’t matter. Be sure to keep your deadlines though, because missing deadlines will hurt your career. As a beginner in the field you will need help finding work, here are a few short “how-to’s” in order to get you started:

The Internet

Freelance copywriting has found its success on the Internet. The World Wide Web has now opened many doors previously closed. The easiest way to find work is through an online freelance marketplace like www.elance.com. These sites help copywriters and clients find each other. You can build a profile, post examples of your work, and bid on projects. These sites can also automatically alert you to jobs that you may be interested in.

You should also make a website. This will act as your shop front window to people searching the Internet for a copywriter. It will also allow potential clients to examine your work close-up before they hire you. Therefore it should be neat, easy to read, and professional looking.

Build Your Network

Building a network and getting your name out there into the market is very important. You won’t get any projects if no one knows about you. Go to seminars with other copywriters and begin to get your name and face into the industry. Do some work for free in order to build a client base. You should also try to partner with other copywriters. As you do these things, you will begin to build a base for your business.

Don’t Stop Learning

No matter how skilled you currently are, you should always work to educate yourself and improve the quality of your copy. Since your writing is the foundation to your business, you should work extra hard to keep yourself competitive. There are plenty of online tutorials that help teach freelancing strategies. There are also different coaching course options by successful copywriters. These allow you to learn from the best copywriters out there and incorporate their success into your business. Check out some books by Dan Kennedy as well, he is a foremost expert in the field and his books can help you greatly.

You should also write everyday. Stephen King once compared working-out at the gym to writing: the more you do it the stronger you become. Therefore you should write everyday, this will help your writing improve immensely.

Hopefully you found this article helpful. Freelance copywriting is a great career with a lot of freedom and benefits. If you think freelance copywriting sounds good, then you should do some more research to see if it is right for you.

The best way to get massive long term traffic to your business is by submitting articles to article directory sites. These directories give you the opportunity to display your contact or website link at the bottom of the page. This powerful little section is called the resource box.

One of the most difficult hurdles to overcome when starting a business is establishing credibility. By writing articles on your subject you are almost immediately seen as an expert in tee eyes of your readers. The more people like and trust you the more sales you will be able to make in your business. It’s really that simple.

Although you may be shaking in your boots just thinking about putting an article together, you need not worry. I don’t say this because you will become a proficient author after reading this article, but because you can hire professional writers to craft your articles rather inexpensively. These people are referred to as “Ghostwriters” and are readily available through a Google search under that term.

et me give you a quick example, let’s say you are a realtor and want to generate more home sales in your local area. You write a few articles on the subject and provide great content for the reader. Once the reader gets to the bottom of you article they have an option. They can click away, visit your website or contact you directly. Imagine the impact if just one reader results in a several thousand dollar home sale for your business, that’s powerful stuff.

Another great advantage of article writing is that by submitting your article to the directories you gain exposure to other accounting related websites. These sites may pick up your article to use as content on their sites. In order to do that, they must use your byline and contact information which gives you even more free exposure.

In order to really get the most bang for your buck, I recommend using a couple tools to get you r articles out there even faster. By using article submission software or an article submission service, you can guarantee that you will get maximum exposure for your articles and increase your overall profitability. So now that you have the skinny on article writing, go ahead and get to work.

When you are viewed as a subject matter expert in a certain category, you are elevated to a position of authority. People will come to you and seek you out for advice and ideas on how to use your knowledge and implement it in their own lives.

You know you are an expert, but how do you convey this to others? The first step is to write articles in a how-to type format and publishing them online. By writing guides and other general information articles, you have the opportunity to create a reader base that could grow over time.

Most of the people that are online are searching for an answer to a question. Why canat you be the one to provide them with what they are seeking? For example, if you are an expert on scrapbooking, you can write articles related to the subject that they may find helpful in providing them the answers they seek.

To be known as an expert, you must actually be an expert. Do not waste your time or your readeras time by writing articles riddled with inaccuracies and low quality content. They are coming to you for advice and they want it from someone who is experienced on the subject.

When you attract a reader base, your goal should be to entice them to return. You want to establish yourself to be their number one source to turn to when they need information. You do this by presenting your background and tell them why you are an expert. Then tell them what you will be writing about in the future. Keep them entices and wanting more.

Once you have gotten your name out and had an article published on the basics, itas time to showcase your depth of knowledge a little more. Taking your internet marketing prowess to the next level, you could write an article about internet marketing SEO. Titles like these require your readers to gain a pre-requisite knowledge of the subject, which will take them back to referencing your first article. Now you are officially on your way to being the subject matter expert using articles as a vehicle.

Of course this will work for any industry and this is simply an example, but what you need to do is create a successful branding goal internet articles marketing strategy articles to achieve success in your field of expertise. Itas all about the branding and how you use it.

It is important to note that building a reputation as an expert takes time and patience. Experts werenat found over night, in any industry, but the more you work at getting published and the places you showcase your content, the easier it will be to build that reputation.

I don’t know anyone that has all the traffic they need. Even the gurus that have thousands of visitors a day are always looking for ways to drive hot, targeted traffic to their websites. Could you use a little more targeted traffic to your site? Of course you could, I don’t know a marketer that couldn’t so lets dive on in.

Here are several quick and easy ways to get traffic to your site in record time.

Method 1 – Take a shot at article marketing. It’s not hat hard if you have an understanding of you product or service. Simply write 400-700 words on your topic and make it interesting. Out some passion and value added content in there and the next thing you know, people will want to know more about you and your expertise. That;’s when you send them to your site link using the resource box at the bottom of this article.

Method 2 – Crank out a Youtube video – I know, you are afraid of the camera and nothing could be worse than doing a video. Well you don’t have o do a video, you can do a slideshow with an audio of you talking about your product or a screen view of your product some features and benefits. Get creative but don;t forget the most important aspect, a strong call to action. Let then know what you want them to do at the end and ideally keep it between 1-2 minutes in length.

Method – 3 – Put your link in your email address This seems obvious but as simple as it is, so many people fail to do this. If you are working on the computer, you are probably sending emails all day everyday. There is no telling where these emails may land and who may click on your link . Make your link appealing by offering a special offer or something for them to click. You’d be surprised how many people find you this way.

Method 4 – Write a short downloadable e-book to give away. This doesn’t need to be a novel. Typically 8 to 12 pages of hard hitting information on your topic. Don’t give away the farm, but keep them interested and wanting more. This also positions you as an expert in the field which goes along way in customer retention.

Method 5 – Place ads in the Classifieds. This is becoming more and more popular, especially with the advent of Craigslist. I know marketers that use Craigslist exclusively for their advertising campaigns and they do very well with it. The key to Craigslist is to get your ads to stick and they will pull very well. I’ve personally received tins of traffic from Craigslist.

All of these methods work f you work them and the best thing is they are all absolutely 100% free. In terms of the learning curve and effectiveness of all these methods, I would probably start with Craigslist followed by article marketing.

Alright, now that you’ve got some good information to start building your campaigns you should choose one or two techniques to start and build from there. I know you’re excited and ready to get started but don;t overwhelm yourself by trying to do too much, too fast.

The Internet’s value as a resource is a very high. Besides being able to write emails and do research, the Internet also allows people to sell products. Electronic commerce is a huge source of revenue, but copywriters are needed in order to help grow a product.

Businesses need to have a website in order to sell a product. But many websites fail to sell their products. A successful sale requires good web-content and marketing.

Not everyone knows how to properly market a product, but they are willing to pay someone for their services if it means greater sales. Fortunately, as a freelance copywriter you can offer your services to these entrepreneurs and help them effectively sell their products. But there are many copywriters out there, so you should do some things in order to help you become better known.

First off you need a website. Having one will give you an edge over some of those copywriters that don’t have one. You also need a portfolio that has examples of your best work, a sales letter explaining your credentials, and testimonies from past clients. Your portfolio will function as your resume to your clients.

You need to understand what your clients want. Different products are sold in different ways. Make sure your client feels like you know what they want. Listen to their desires and then politely offer your input. Since you’re the expert you have the right to point out if there is a better way to accomplish your customer’s goals. As long as you increase your client’s sales, they will be happy.

As you learn about your client?s product, make sure to do some background research so you know exactly what you’re doing. As the copywriter you’re supposed to know how to advertise products, so don’t assume anything. If the client pays you a lot of money and you fail to help sell their product, they’re not going to be happy with you. So make sure you know your client’s market well, for bad testimonies can break your business.

Let your client know the projected earnings for your marketing strategy. You don’t want them living under false ideas and become disappointed because there was a difference in understanding. Some products have a more modest launch but grow to be very lucrative over time. If this is the case, make sure your client knows it.

If you’re constructing their website for them, then make sure your client likes the site before you launch. This is all about making you client happy. They can visit the site and play around with it if they like. If they don’t like it, then politely try to meet their demands without compromising the sales strategy.

Once completed, show you client how to manage whatever you produce for them. As you make more and more clients happy, your name and your success will grow. Your ultimate success rests on your efforts though. The more work you put into your business, the greater the success you will see.

Your hard work will pay itself off, and you get to enjoy being part of successful products. Knowing that you played an integral part in a successful product is very rewarding by itself. I hope this article helped you see another dimension to freelance copywriters: what they do and how they do it. Freelance copywriting is very rewarding. Since you are your own boss, you determine your work schedule. You can also work from anywhere in the world as long as you have an Internet connection. You should look more closely into freelance copywriting if it interests you.

Dedicated hosting is different from shared hosting in that it resides on a server by itself. Shared hosting means that several websites are sharing the same server, but when there is a problem with that single server, all of the websites residing on that server will fall victim to that problem. That is why more and more people are turning to dedicated hosting.

A business can purchase their own dedicated server or they can lease it. There are other options available for those who choose a dedicated server and that is to have their hosting managed. That is why dedicated hosting is frequently referred to as managed hosting. Nevertheless, dedicated hosting is more flexible than shared hosting.

Return on investment

In many ways, dedicated hosting can result in a larger return on investment. This is due to the fact that there is very little overhead involved. If a company were to have their dedicated hosting in-house, they may be facing some pretty steep costs. However, employing the hosting company to take care of all of the administrative responsibilities can prove to be quite profitable.

For those who may not have the IT staff or be able to afford a staff to take care of the server, having the hosting company take care of technical issues and routine maintenance is going to be something you might find quite handy. Basically, that allows you to concentrate on those things that are important within your business. Not that your hosting isn’t important, because it is. It’s just that your hosting won’t do you any good if you don’t do the marketing activities that are needed to draw people to your business. It also won?t do you any good if you get a reputation for not being able to handle consumer needs because you?re too busy concentrating on your hosting.

A must for your business

So if you’re not too sure about what to do as far as your Internet presence goes, dedicated hosting is a good place to start. You can get all of the assistance that you need to ensure that everything goes smoothly. This means that you don’t have to have technical expertise about data centers and you don?t have to have knowledge of a lot of the technical turns. Your hosting company will explain things to you in ways that you can understand so that you know what it is you’re getting. They will also not do anything drastic unless they let you know what it is they are doing, so you don’t have to worry about some sort of unauthorized action being carried out.

If you’re not on the Internet yet because you are not sure what it is you need to do, this is a great place to start. Once you figure out your hosting options, you can then work on getting a website built for your business. Many businesses find that they profit more on the Internet because they can reach a global audience. Reaching a global audience means global sales, if it is possible for your business. You’ll notice a considerable difference in the amount of revenue that you bring in. What’s great is that dedicated hosting does that for you.

So don’t worry if you’re a beginner or you know nothing about the world of Internet because you’ll definitely catch on. You’ll be able to learn as you go as someone else does the work. All you have to do is find a reliable company. Look at Internet reviews, talk to other businesses, and check out what businesses similar to you are using. Compare price plans and options.

SEO is short for search engine optimization and is the practice of designing your website so that search engines rank it highly in search results for keywords related to your website. When users search for information, goods, or services on the internet they are given a list of websites pertaining to the keywords or the keyword phrase they typed in the search box. The results given to users by search engines are listed from the most highly ranked websites to the lowest ranked ones and there can be hundreds or even thousands of websites listed for any given keyword. Search engines use many different factors to determine which websites are ranked highly. Texas web designers will develop your website with search engine ranking mind and will ensure all the necessary steps are taken to get your website the highest ranking possible.

Many people think that SEO is a bad and slow strategy to deliver traffic and result for your website, however, I found an easy way to do SEO that deliver massive result and sales in the shortest time! Many SEO Experts tend to ignore or doesn’t know such tactics actually exists, and they always left a lot of money on the table…

The long tail keyword SEO tactics!

Many SEO experts optimize the website start from targeting seed keyword, but this kind of keywords are highly competitive and does not convert well. After they put a lot of efforts and time trying to compete and rank well for those keywords, they might not even have sustainable result due to the highly competitive nature of those keywords!

What you should be doing is try to outline and find the long tail keywords for your website, you can easily tap into the long tail keywords for less competition and better converting your visitors to customers. Here is the reasons:

Reason #1 – Search engine will show the long tail keyword search with the general (major keywords) result if the Search Engine failed to find the web page that optimized for the long tail keyword result, however, if your web page optimize for those long tail keywords, search engine will prefer them as they are more targeted for the searchers!

Reason #2 – Long tail keyword rank faster. You can easily use authority sites to set some back links to your long tail keyword page, and with minimum back links from authority site, you can rank on the first page!

Reason #3 – Traffic comes in earlier. Your traffic will start to roll in very fast, you don’t have to wait for the main keywords to rank well before getting any traffic!

You need to find “realistic” keywords to rank, the best way is through forum and community sites where actual people ask the actual question. Take note of all long tail keywords and the problems and solutions to build your landing pages. Many SEO expert ignored them, this is the low hanging fruit…

If you have thought that you might need search engine optimization for your business, but aren’t really sure, you have found the right article. If you want to get your website to the top of the search engine results page, search engine optimization is going to do that.

Basically, search engine optimization (or SEO) is the process of getting your website to the top of the results page. For example, if you are selling magic dust, your website that has been search engine optimized is going to be at the top of the listings if someone types “magic dust” (or any of the other keywords that you have chosen) into a search engine like Google or Yahoo. You want your magic dust website to come out as one of the top results so that web searchers will click on it and buy your dirt.

Do you have to be a computer or business genius to figure out SEO? Well, it really depends on how you decide to do your search engine optimization. It is going to be difficult because there are a lot of websites out there and some of them are going to sell the exact same thing that you sell. To get your website to the top, you are going to have to remember that it is going to take some determination. You are probably wondering how to get your website to that premier position in the search engine ratings. It isn’t going to automatically (or magically) get there. It’s a combination of a great website and learning how SEO works.

It isn’t hard if you have a search engine optimization firm do the dirty work for you while you concentrate on getting your business off the ground. Of course, this is going to eat into your advertising or IT budget, but it is going to give you the results you desire.

Can you get your website to be number one on the search engine rankings page without doing search engine optimization? The answer is yes, but remember that if you get close to the top, it is usually because you are working to get there and stay there. If you rocket to the top without trying, consider yourself really lucky, because most businesses need to do search engine optimization first.

Search engine optimization doesn’t necessarily have to change your website completely in order to be effective. What it will do is work with what you have, improving your key words and page descriptions to give the search engines what they are looking for.

Search engine optimization is not new, but most people who have never launched a website have heard of it. The reason is that it is one of those topics that people don’t like to talk about, because they like to think that they can get to the top by themselves. Using a company to help you optimize your page is going to be a really great way to make sure everything turns out and you get the traffic to your website that you need to stay in business.

Here are the most pertinent instructions for selecting right approach for writing extremely good pieces of writing on Internet. You have to put up your articles on sale in case you write for money. You must understand your business better than others who are not required to sell their writings. Our focus here will be on skills needed for writing articles instead of qualities required for selling them.

Starting With The Foremost Rule You should write according to taste of reader not your own. This means that you explore and target your message towards correct readers. In an article on financial market you cant target grandmothers looking for designs of knitting. This means that you write message according to comprehension of target readers. No one will understand even correct stuff until and unless it is presented properly.

Keep in mind that people who browse the Internet are impatient. They click off the material once they read something that is not pertinent to their cause, and they only linger on an article that they consider important and pleasing.

Before you even put pen to paper, ask yourself this important question: Who are your readers? You will be able to make a decision about type of article you need to write by answering this question. The article may be of any kind such as technical, marketing or philosophical, all which are dissimilar in nature, which is why you must correctly identify your target audience.

You will be able to make a decision about type of article you need to write by answering this question. The article may be of any kind such as technical, marketing or philosophical. All these types are dissimilar in nature.

This step questions your motivation that- why you wish to produce this piece of writing? The articles on the Internet can be classified into four wide approaches, these are

- Writing for Selling- Marketing articles often make effort for selling commodities or services to woo readers to any website. The speed should be obvious instantly and content of marketing remains small in size. Keywords are important for selling as keywords invite your readers, mainly on Internet.

- Technical writing-This type of writing requires actual facts. The technical aspect is well understood with diagrams. But, in lack of these, one has to keep the description right to avoid misconceptions. The most crucial aspect is the target audience. If you use highly technical words, then a common man would find it difficult to understand. And if the article has more of the style, the people with technical expertise will find it without technical details.

- Trendy Writing: The extensive use of blogs in the recent times has made this writing very popular. The main aspects here are to make the content more appealing and entertaining. This kind of writing should still try to be as straightforward as possible, as well as short and full of quick points. Trendy writing tends to lack details and arguments.

- Intellectual Writing: This writing requires detailed description of a particular field and often makes references from popular books. Intellectual writing is aimed at contributing to a field of study. However, it does not necessarily have to be academic in nature. Good examples of intellectual writing are book reviews and editorial columns.

The Internet is the most popular media for sharing information and, if used in an efficient manner, it can work wonders for you as a reader and writer.

Now that you’ve made the wise decision to incorporate gift and/or loyalty marketing into your business, you’ve got a number of decisions to make. One of the first – and most critical – is the decision regarding the card you will offer to your customers. In this article, we’ll examine your options and explore some common design and artwork mistakes and what you can do to avoid them.

A Custom Card or a Standard Card?

Once you’ve decided on a supplier, they will discuss card options with you. There are two ways you can go here – custom or standard. Custom cards are unique to every business. Custom cards incorporate the business’ identity in terms of using their logo and artwork that reflects the business’ look and feel.

Standard card designs are pre-made designs that can be personalized in a variety of ways. These cards do not have to be boring or bland. In fact, many gift card suppliers make available a variety of different designs for a variety of different business categories or vertical markets. These standard cards also can be personalized with your business name, your retail website, your phone number or other items, including your logo (although it may be in one color).

Choosing the best option for business takes an understanding of your options. Custom designed cards have several key advantages. You will often see the “big box” retailers use these because they are able to carry their same branding and marketing with a custom design. These custom cards are usually very attractive. An attractive card makes an attractive gift and you can often increase impulse buys with this added eye appeal. Merchants also can try some unique things such as custom die cuts to make specially shaped gift cards. Merchants can use more distinctive materials (such as metallic inks, foils and different card stocks). There are even some cutting edge ideas where the cards have additional digital information or can even play music. The two disadvantages to a custom card design are that the price is more expensive and that the turnaround takes a little more time.

There are many unique printing features you can do with standard cards, such as adding clear card stocks, using metallic ink, or even some die cuts. Personalization is limited with a standard card. The amount of text you can use, the color choices on overprinted text, and the number of standardized designs available are all some of the typical limitations. However, there are many advantages. Standard cards don’t usually cost as much since the card supplier has large quantities in stock. Standard cards also have the advantage of speed to market since the turnaround time is days instead of weeks.

Some Things To Consider About Your Artwork

With standard cards, the task is pretty simple — pick a design and choose how you will personalize it for your business. With a custom design, however, you have some additional decisions. Likely, you’ll work with either your existing agency — if you have one – to create your card design, or you’ll work with your supplier. Many gift card companies have their own in-house design departments. Regardless of whom you work with to create your design, you’ll need to give them some direction. In many cases, this means supplying artwork so they can base your card design on something that you already use in your business – for example – your original menu art if you’re a restaurant. You can also submit the files used to create a brochure or advertisement for your business. This will enable a designer to create your card design so it fits into the rest of your marketing initiatives.

Some additional Do’s and Don’ts for providing you artwork:

1. DON’T try to use the images right off your website. These are often not of high enough quality and resolution for card printing.

2. DON’T provide graphic images than must be enlarged. This will, again, not give a high enough resolution to the images as they lose quality when enlarged.

3. DON’T utilize previously printed images. Art that has been printed commercially has been converted into small “dots” that create the image. When you reprint these previously printed images, you often get a moire pattern that makes for poor quality images.

4. DO find your original computer files of these various materials and use these. These originals will likely be of high quality and will allow the designer to quickly convert the images into a good design.

5. DON’T clutter your design with too much info. It’s a very common error that people make, trying to hit every marketing point. Keep the design simple to keep your visual impact high.

6. DO take advantage of your logo. Your logo is a constant branding image that your customers actually expect to see on your various advertising and marketing creative. A gift card or loyalty card is like a pocket-sized billboard for your company. Take advantage of your logo. You want your clients to remember your name.

7. DO look into using custom merchandising vehicles. By coordinating your package (which might include a custom card on a custom card hanger or card carrier) you help increase your perceived value…and that helps improve sales.

Whether you choose to go with a standard card with some personalization and want to begin in a week, or whether you want to go for a full-custom package and coordinate all your marketing efforts, there is nothing like receiving that first box of cards and seeing your attractive, glossy gift cards. Once you start making your customers aware that you offer gift cards, you will also love the increased revenues to your business.

What are the fundamentals of an affiliate marketing strategy? Is there a fast track technique to affiliate marketing stardom? All of these questions are rolling around in the minds of affiliate marketers all over the world who desire to make it big as an affiliate marketer.

Although affiliate marketing is touted as one of the easiest and most effective ways to earn money online, it is not as easy as it sounds. The wise affiliate marketer plans every action and executes it the best way he can. He should also maximize the potential to earn by utilizing the right tools necessary for a successful Affiliate Marketing business. We have consulted some of the most successful affiliate marketers in the business and below are the top three necessary tools for a successful affiliate marketing business.

#1: Your Own Registered Website Address

The most important and indispensable tool in Affiliate Marketing is having your own website. The first step in any successful affiliate marketing business is building a good, credible and professional looking website. Your website is the jump off point of all your marketing efforts. Thus, you must first build a user-friendly website, which will appeal to your prospects and encourage them to click on the links to the products and service you are promoting and make a purchase. Therefore, you must first concentrate your efforts in building a website that will cater to what your prospects need.

The most crucial aspect you need to consider is that just about all web surfers go online to search for information; they do not in nature go and pay money for something from the first website they visit. Above all else, create your website packed full of significant and helpful content and of course it has to be original. Web users like articles that are captivating and useful with the information they are seeking, it adds credibility. To say the least, on the World Wide Web, content is very much king and superior quality content can exclusively set up your credibility online; it can also serve you to obtaining a higher search engine position. By posting relevant and useful articles, you establish yourself as a credible expert in the field you are promoting, making you a more trustworthy supplier of the product or services you are promoting. Establishing a good reliable reputation is a good step in building up a loyal consumer base. Once you achieve this you have the opportunity to sell other products this is called the up sell.

#2 Creating Bonus Products Or Incentives

It is very competitive in the world of affiliate marketing. You should always ensure that you are one move ahead of your rivals to capture a large percentage of your target market. Consequently, you have to use every conceivable means to inspire users not just to visit your site but also to click and buy the product you are promoting. Creating a mailing list is largely a first-rate way to collect customers. You can do this by offering such things as a Newsletter or Email Tutorials. More Effective still, offer incentives or bonuses to your customers to motivate them to subscribe to your mailing list. You can present e-books as bonuses software, access to exclusive services and other freebies that will be helpful to your customers.

#3: Link Popularity and Benefits

The importance of driving highly targeted traffic to your website cannot be emphasized enough. The all-significant web traffic is at the top of the list of the greatest important entities in the internet world. Attracting people to your site should be the foremost move you should carry out. Do the lot to accomplish a high search engine ranking. Link Popularity is one of the factors that search engines use to judge search engine rankings. So, to improve your link popularity, you have to set in motion an aggressive reciprocal link effort.

One of the best ways to do this – at no cost at all – is by submitting articles, with your website’s link at the resource box, to e-zines and free article sites. You will not only gain exposure, you will also have the opportunity to advertise for free, just include a link back to your site. The more sites you submit your articles to, the better your link popularity is. Make your articles original, relevant and useful so that more websites will pick it up and post it.

These are just a few of the many online strategies available to affiliate marketers to increase their earning potential. The possibilities are endless and are restricted only by your imagination, creativity, resourcefulness and of course your determination. You can often checkout other ideas and make suitable alternate strategies, which you believe could aid you to become a successful at affiliate marketing. Always watch your competitors find out who they are linking to what products they are promoting and overall just stay in touch with what is happening with affiliate marketing and the internet in general.

I wrote an article before that to generate more traffic you have to optimize the proper keywords. The way to do it is through high trend, low density keywords or what I call as HITLOD.

To discover HITLOD keywords, there is no need to search for them as they will just come to you suddenly like a brilliant idea. Just like how great artists and inventors get inspired oftentimes.

Going about my day to day experiences, I have discovered some great keywords. To cite an example, I searched the internet for the real story behind the movie 21 after I watched it. (This is what I usually do when I watch a great movie. I normally want to know the real story behind the movie since Hollywood often loosely base their script on the real story)

21 the movie is based on the book by Ben Mezrich.”Bringing Down the House: The Inside Story of Six MIT Students Who Took Vegas for Millions.” For the most part, the book is fictional however the life of the main character in the book is loosely based on the life of Jeffrey Ma one of the member of the MIT Blackjack Team who was a brilliant MIT student.

The MIT blackjack team came from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Harvard University, and other nearby colleges. To beat the casinos in black jack the MIT blackjack team used counting cards techniques.

Their operation was impressive, very organized and run like a real business. It said that they raked in an estimated $3 million to $5 million U.S dollars by simply counting cards in the game of black jack while playing in casinos worldwide.

“Blackjack is a beatable game,” This was the motto of the group. To win at blackjack all you have to do is use simple math and employ simple counting cards techniques.

After reading several articles on the MIT black jack team, I listened to the interviews of Jeffrey Ma. It suddenly dawned on me that people would start to follow them and start searching for the terms “black jack”, “counting cards in blackjack”, “counting cards”, “how to count cards” or other similar keywords. I tried which keyword combinations is the best and found out about the keyword “counting cards.” Even I myself became hooked with “counting cards.”

“Counting cards” has only been referred to in 443,000 site as of today. There is spike in the Google trends graph. This could have been caused by the release of the movie in theatres sometime late March 2008.

People only began searching in volume for the keyword “counting cards” in 2008. This tells us that interest in the keyword “counting cards” was because of the movie 21.

No doubt, “Counting cards” is a good HITLOD keyword . Sadly it’s being high trend could be only of a temporary nature. After a cerain amount of time it is most likely that people will stop searching for the “counting cards.”

Nevertheless, “Counting cards” is still a HITLOD keyword for the time being, so strike when the iron is hot ! For as long as the movie is still hot, people will still search for the “counting cards” keyword and if you have properly optimized it, it will perhaps drive hundreds or even thousands of visitors to your site. So blog about “counting cards” today and count the traffic to your site ! (Perhaps later you could also count the money that comes with it)

Generally web hosting servers can be categorized as dedicated server and shared web hosting server. You’re getting one or a few of your web pages displayed on someone else’s domain. A user will get the proper technical support in dedicated hosting also he will find it easier if he is having the technical expertise to handle the server himself. You can never fully promote your website or help it to reach its full potential. If the company is shut down tomorrow, your site will shut down as well.

No doubt that shared web hosting is reliable and has minimum tribulations; but still it’s not a better option than the dedicated web hosting. When shopping for cheap web hosting, be sure to compare web site hosting packages not only prices. Because this is the case, they should and quote 24/7 technical support. On the shared web hosting server all the sites shows discrepancy due to availability of disk space, allowed bandwidth per site and overall speed. Another disadvantage of free web page hosting is you will probably have advertisements on your web pages.

When a user founds that the traffic to his site has increased substantially and his site is taking too much time to load, he should immediately shift to a dedicated server web hosting. You don’t want a company that will only talk to you during their eight to five business hours, especially if they are based in another country, in a different time zone. Before going for a dedicated server web hosting provider, user should consider that it should provide him good network stability, reliable operation, and the ease of operation of complicated applications. Some key features to look for are the amount of web space you’re getting for the money.

You might not need much web hosting space at the start, but as you expand, the website will grow much larger. A dedicated server web hosting provider is the best option for the one who is serious about his online existence. In cheap hosting packages no doubt, prices are very cheap but you have to live with limited resources like CPU time and other server related resources.

No doubt that shared web hosting is reliable and has minimum tribulations; but still it’s not a better option than the dedicated web hosting. More advanced web site developers can make use any specialized software like a content management system, web log, customer support, discussion board or a shopping cart system in order to get the most out of the hosting package features.

You have to keep your articles relevant to the general subject of your website. Failure to do this will cause you to lose search engine value as well as visitor credibility.

So, what’s relevant

“Related to” is what we mean by “relevant.” Any subject that you can relate in some way to your business can be relevant in an article. For instance, say you were selling a business start up kit, you should come up with related ideas that will satisfy search engines and humans:

Basic equipment business startups need

Internet versus brick-and-mortar startup business

Basic equipment business startups need

Creating an advertising budget on a shoestring

Internet versus brick-and-mortar startup business

Internet versus brick-and-mortar startup business

The pitfalls of starting a small business

Of course this is only some of the list you could come up with. a site on small businesses can generate quite a few articles that are relevant.

Another example would be if you sold something like dog treats.

It can be harder to determine relevant content when dealing with niche markets. If your subject is very limited, consider including in the subject of your articles other areas that may be of interest to visitors.

In the example above, you can assume that most of your visitors and potential customers own dogs. With that taken into consideration, there are plenty of topics you can write or purchase informative articles on that will interest visitors and help solidify your expert status. For instance:

How to come up with a creative name for your new puppy

Housebreaking tips for puppies

How to vacation with your dog

Pet grooming tips

Housebreaking tips for puppies

Whether dogs should wear sweaters

How to come up with a creative name for your new puppy

You will notice that all of these topics are a natural extension of the main business. That would be dogs and dog owners. Since each of them is related to the website, a mention of homeade dog treats can be included naturally in each article.

So how do you find relevant topics?

If it’s hard to come up with relevant article subjects, try using a keyword tool to get more ideas. There are several free and useful keyword generators that can kickstart the thinking process and reveal topics you might not have thought of.

If you are doing Search Engine Optimization (SEO) for your website, or you rely heavily on SEO to deliver traffic to your site, you must read this article. SEO is a long term strategy, and it takes time to build up your traffic… However, there are something everybody missing, which will deliver massive result in the shortest time!

We call it the long tail keyword SEO strategy.

Many SEO experts optimize the website start from targeting seed keyword, but this kind of keywords are highly competitive and does not convert well. After they put a lot of efforts and time trying to compete and rank well for those keywords, they might not even have sustainable result due to the highly competitive nature of those keywords!

The correct way to do is try to identify all long tail keywords for your website with all modifiers from the keyword research. Long tail keywords tend to rank well with less competition and convert better, Here’s why:

Reason #1 – Search engine will show the long tail keyword search with the general (major keywords) result if the Search Engine failed to find the web page that optimized for the long tail keyword result, however, if your web page optimize for those long tail keywords, search engine will prefer them as they are more targeted for the searchers!

Reason #2 – Long tail keyword rank faster. You can easily use authority sites to set some back links to your long tail keyword page, and with minimum back links from authority site, you can rank on the first page!

Reason #3 – Traffic comes in earlier. Your traffic will start to roll in very fast, you don’t have to wait for the main keywords to rank well before getting any traffic!

You need to find “realistic” keywords to rank, the best way is through forum and community sites where actual people ask the actual question. Take note of all long tail keywords and the problems and solutions to build your landing pages. Many SEO expert ignored them, this is the low hanging fruit…

Previously, I wrote that one of the best sources of bigger traffic is by optimizing the right keywords. To achieve this we make use of high trend, low density keywords or what I coined as HITLOD.

I believe that in order to find HITLOD keywords, you do not have to search for them. They will just come to you just like how great artists and inventors suddenly come up with a brilliant idea.

Going about my day to day experiences, I have discovered some great keywords. To cite an example, I searched the internet for the real story behind the movie 21 after I watched it.

“Counting cards” has only been referred to in 443,000 site as of today. There is spike in the Google trends graph. This could have been caused by the release of the movie in theatres sometime late March 2008.

Since the search for the term “counting cards” only began in 2008 it can be surmised that interest in the keyword “counting cards” was brought about by the release of the movie 21.

“Counting cards” may be a good HITLOD keyword and it’s being high trend could only be temporary. After several years, months or even weeks I believe people will stop searching for the “counting cards” keyword after interest in the movie has waned.

Despite that observation, “Counting cards” is still a HITLOD keyword as of today. So sieze the opportunity ! As the movie is still new, people will still search for the “counting cards” keyword. If you have properly optimized the keyword, no doubt it will bring tons of traffic to your site. Blog about “counting cards” today and start counting the traffic to your site, later on count the money that comes with it !

Referrer logging is used to allow web servers and websites to identify where people are visiting them either for promotional or security purposes. You can find out which search engine they used to find your site and whether your customer has come from a ‘linked site’. It is basically the URL of the previous webpage from which your link was followed.

By default, most hosting accounts don’t include referrer logs but may be subscribedd for an extra monthly fee. If your web host does not provide a graphic report of your log files, you can still view the referrer logs for your website by logging into the host server using free or low-cost FTP software, like these:

FTP Explorer: http://www.ftpx.com/ LogMeIn: http://secure.logmein.com/dmcq/103/support.asp SmartFTP: http://www.smartftp.com/ FTP Voyager: http://www.ftpvoyager.com/

The log file is available on your web server which can be download into your computer later. You can use a log analysis tool, like those mentioned below, to create a graphic report from your log files so that the files are easier to understand.

Abacre Advanced Log Analyzer http://www.abacre.com/ala/ Referrer Soft http://www.softplatz.com/software/referrer/ Log Analyzer http://www.loganalyzer.net

You can view the files using Word, Word Perfect, txt or WordPad files even if you don’t have the right tool. This information is very crucial to your business and marketing plans and is not advisable to neglect it.

In addition to identifying the search engine or linked site from where your visitor arrived, referrer logs can also tell you what keywords or keyword phrases your client used for searching.

As referrer information can sometimes violate privacy, some browsers allow the user to disable the sending of referrer information. Proxy and Firewall software can also filter out referrer information, to avoid leaking the location of private websites. This can result in other problems, as some servers block parts of their site to browsers that don’t send the right referrer information, in an attempt to prevent deep linking or unauthorized use of bandwidth. Some proxy software gives the top-level address of the target site itself as the referrer, which prevents these problems and still not divulging the user’s last visited site.

Since the referrer can easily be spoofed or faked, however, it is of limited use in this regard except on a casual basis.

1. Update the pages on your website frequently. Stagnant sites are dropped by some search engines. You can even put a date counter on the page to show when it was last updated.

2. Offer additional value on your website. For affiliates and partners you can place links to their sites and products and ask them to do the same for you. You can also advertise their books or videos, if these products relate to your industry and are not in competition with your own product.

3. You can allow customers to ‘opt in’ to get discounts and special offers. Place a link on your site to invite customers to ‘opt in’ to get a monthly newsletter or valuable coupons.

4. Add a link to your primary page with a script ‘Book Mark or Add this site to your Favorites’.

5. Add a link ‘Recommend this site to a Friend’ so that the visitor can email your website link, with a prewritten title, “Thought you might be interested in this”, just by clicking on it.

6. Brand your website so that visitors always know they are on your site. Use consistent colors, logos and slogans and always provide a ‘Contact Us’ link on each page.

7. Create a ‘Our Policies’ page that clearly defines your philosophy and principles in dealing with your customers. Also post your privacy policy as well so that clients know they are secure when they visit your site.

8. Create a FAQ page which addresses most of the doubts and clarifications about your product or your company that are likely to be asked. This helps to resolve most of the customers doubts in their first visit to your site.

8. Ensure that each page on your website has appropriate titles and keywords so that your customer can find their way back to your site if they lose the book mark.

9. Never spam a client, who has opted for newsletters, with unsolicited emails. Later if they decide they want to ‘opt out’ of the mailings, be sure you honor their request and take them off the mailing list. They may still come back if they like your products. But they will certainly not come back if you continue to flood their email box with mails they no longer wish to receive.

One need to choose those keywords that are frequently searched for and which is in high demand, but not being already used by many other websites and competitors, and thus has low competition. There are a number of keyword research tools that can help you find them.

Apart from the Wordtracker which was already discussed in an other article, we have some more equally important research tools like the Overture, Google AdWords Keyword and Guidebeam.

Overture’s http://inventory.overture.com/d/searchinventory/suggestion/ keyword suggestion tool is free and much quicker to use than Wordtracker. It works more like the Wordtracker but doesn’t tell you how many websites are targeting each keyword phrase. For example if you type ‘Computer’, the Overture search suggestion tool will tell you that during the last month the word ‘Computer’ was searched, say for example 459550 times at Overture.Com. Similarly ‘computer game’ was searched 302210 times. Also, given one word it will tell you all relevant combination’s of that word, which are based on actual searches done by people. If the word you keyed in is not a common search term then you will not get any results. It means that very few people have actually searched for that word during the last month.

Even Google Keyword Tool generates potential keywords for your ad campaign and reports their Google statistics, including search performance and seasonal trends. Features of this tool include,

Sorting the results of your desired keyword search by popularity, past performance history within the AdWords system, cost, and predicted ad position.

Easy keyword manipulation where you can select a few keywords here and there or add them all at once.

Searches for keywords present even in any webpage URL specified by your search. It can also expand your keyword search even further to include those pages that are linked to or from the original URL page.

More keyword results are generated based on regularly updated usage statistics database. This helps you to get new keywords or phrases.

Guidebeam http://www.guidebeam.com/ is an interesting resource. Type in a phrase and it will suggest a large number of related searches. The numbers generated against each phrase are Guidebeam’s estimation of how relevant that phrase is.

These software’s are useful for researching how people search the web and then optimizing your own web pages so that more people find your web site.

Keyword density is an indicator of the number of times the selected keyword appears in the web page. But mind you, keywords shouldn’t be over used, but should be just sufficient enough to appear at important places.

If you repeat your keywords with every other word on every line, then your site will probably be rejected as an artificial site or spam site.

Keyword density is always expressed as a percentage of the total word content on a given web page.

Suppose you have 100 words on your webpage (not including HMTL code used for writing the web page), and you use a certain keyword for five times in the content. The keyword density on that page is got by simply dividing the total number of keywords, by the total number of words that appear on your web page. So here it is 5 divided by 100 = .05. Because keyword density is a percentage of the total word count on the page, multiply the above by 100, that is 0.05 x 100 = 5%

The accepted standard for a keyword density is between 3% and 5%, to get recognized by the search engines and you should never exceed it.

Remember, that this rule applies to every page on your site. It also applies to not just to one keyword but also a set of keywords that relates to a different product or service. The keyword density should always be between 3% and 5%.

Simple steps to check the density:

Copy and paste the content from an individual web page into a word-processing software program like Word or Word Perfect.

Go to the ‘Edit’ menu and click ‘Select All’. Now go to the ‘Tools’ menu and select ‘Word Count’. Write down the total number of words in the page.

Now select the ‘Find’ function on the ‘Edit’ menu. Go to the ‘Replace’ tab and type in the keyword you want to find. ‘Replace’ that word with the same word, so you don’t change the text.

When you complete the replace function, the system will provide a count of the words you replaced. That gives the number of times you have used the keyword in that page.

Using the total word count for the page and the total number of keywords you can now calculate the keyword density.

It is recommended to use keywords in page titles itself. This title tag is different from a Meta tag, but it’s worth considering it in relation to them. Whatever text one places in the title tag (between the portions) will appear in the title bar of browsers when they view the web page. Some browsers also append whatever you put in the title tag by adding their own name, as for example Microsoft’s Internet Explorer or OPERA.

The actual text you use in the title tag is one of the most important factors in how a search engine may decide to rank your web page. In addition, all major web crawlers will use the text of your title tag as the text they use for the title of your page in your listings.

If you have designed your website as a series of websites or linked pages and not just a single Home Page, you must bear in mind that each page of your website must be search engine optimized. The title of each page i.e. the keywords you use on that page and the phrases you use in the content will draw traffic to your site.

The unique combination of these words and phrases and content will draw customers using different search engine terms and techniques, so be sure you capture all the keywords and phrases you need for each product, service or information page.

The most common mistake made by small business owners when they first design their website is to place their business name or firm name in every title of every page. Actually most of your prospective customers do not bother to know the name of your firm until after they have looked at your site and decided it is worth book marking.

So, while you want your business name in the title of the home page, it is probably a waste of valuable keywords and space to put it in the title line of every page on your site. Why not consider putting keywords in the title so that your page will display closer to the top of the search engine listing.

Dedicating first three positions for keywords in title avoiding the stop words like ‘and’, ‘at’ and the like is crucial in search engine optimization.

You’ve decided it’s time to take your marketing to the next level and add gift cards to your business — a wise choice. Now, you are ready for the next step, and choosing the right card design is an important part of the process. Here are some do’s and don’ts and common mistakes people make when designing their gift cards.

Custom or Standard?

Once you’ve decided on a supplier, they will discuss card options with you. There are two ways you can go here – custom or standard. Custom cards are unique to every business. Custom cards incorporate the business’ identity in terms of using their logo and artwork that reflects the business’ look and feel.

Standard designs, on the other hand, are ready-made designs that your gift card supplier has in stock. Many gift card providers have designs that cater to specific categories of business. Therefore, they do not have to be bland. These standard designs also can be personalized by adding your business name, website and telephone numbers and even a logo (but usually in a single color).

Choosing the best option for business takes an understanding of your options. Custom designed cards have several key advantages. You will often see the “big box” retailers use these because they are able to carry their same branding and marketing with a custom design. These custom cards are usually very attractive. An attractive card makes an attractive gift and you can often increase impulse buys with this added eye appeal. Merchants also can try some unique things such as custom die cuts to make specially shaped gift cards. Merchants can use more distinctive materials (such as metallic inks, foils and different card stocks). There are even some cutting edge ideas where the cards have additional digital information or can even play music. The two disadvantages to a custom card design are that the price is more expensive and that the turnaround takes a little more time.

For standard card designs, you can still get some special printing options such as unique die cuts, clear card stocks, and metallic inks. There will be, however, some constraints on how much the card design can be personalized. The overprint type will have some color limitations. The amount of text you can use may be more limited. And the range of standard designs is also limited. On the other hand, there are many advantages because of this. Your cost will often be lower since the supplier has pre-printed the basic designs. You also will get your cards much faster — days instead of the weeks it takes for custom cards.

Artwork Considerations

With standard cards, the task is pretty simple — pick a design and choose how you will personalize it for your business. With a custom design, however, you have some additional decisions. Likely, you’ll work with either your existing agency — if you have one – to create your card design, or you’ll work with your supplier. Many gift card companies have their own in-house design departments. Regardless of whom you work with to create your design, you’ll need to give them some direction. In many cases, this means supplying artwork so they can base your card design on something that you already use in your business – for example – your original menu art if you’re a restaurant. You can also submit the files used to create a brochure or advertisement for your business. This will enable a designer to create your card design so it fits into the rest of your marketing initiatives.

Here are some tips regarding the artwork you supply for your card design:

1. DON’T try to use the images right off your website. These are often not of high enough quality and resolution for card printing.

2. DON’T provide graphic images that need to be enlarged from their existing size. This lowers the quality. As you make the image bigger, the resolution gradually decreases.

3. DON’T utilize previously printed images. Art that has been printed commercially has been converted into small “dots” that create the image. When you reprint these previously printed images, you often get a moire pattern that makes for poor quality images.

4. DO send original files that you have on your computer — the kinds of files you send out to get printed. These files will usually be clear and of high quality, and they are perfect for a designer to create a quality integration into your card’s design.

5. DON’T clutter your design with too much info. It’s a very common error that people make, trying to hit every marketing point. Keep the design simple to keep your visual impact high.

6. DO maximize your logo on your design. Your gift or loyalty cad serves as a miniature billboard for your business. The main thing you want a customer to remember is the name of your business. Your logo is the one constant your customers expect to see on your marketing materials and your gift cards should be no exception.

7. DO consider customized merchandising tools to complement your card design. A custom gift card affixed to a custom-designed carrier or card hanger presents a coordinated, attractive package that has a higher perceived value that will increase card sales.

There is nothing like opening that first box of gift cards and seeing your colorful designs ready for selling. Whether you go with a full-custom design or with a standardized card (so that you can start selling in a week), get started soon. Start pulling in those additional revenues and promoting your gift cards as soon as your customers arrive at your door.

Generally web hosting servers can be categorized as dedicated server and shared web hosting server. You’re getting one or a few of your web pages displayed on someone else’s domain. A user will get the proper technical support in dedicated hosting also he will find it easier if he is having the technical expertise to handle the server himself. You can never fully promote your website or help it to reach its full potential. If the company is shut down tomorrow, your site will shut down as well.

No doubt that shared web hosting is reliable and has minimum tribulations; but still it’s not a better option than the dedicated web hosting. When shopping for cheap web hosting, be sure to compare web site hosting packages not only prices. Because this is the case, they should and quote 24/7 technical support. On the shared web hosting server all the sites shows discrepancy due to availability of disk space, allowed bandwidth per site and overall speed. Another disadvantage of free web page hosting is you will probably have advertisements on your web pages.

When a user founds that the traffic to his site has increased substantially and his site is taking too much time to load, he should immediately shift to a dedicated server web hosting. You don’t want a company that will only talk to you during their eight to five business hours, especially if they are based in another country, in a different time zone. Before going for a dedicated server web hosting provider, user should consider that it should provide him good network stability, reliable operation, and the ease of operation of complicated applications. Some key features to look for are the amount of web space you’re getting for the money.

You might not need much web hosting space at the start, but as you expand, the website will grow much larger. A dedicated server web hosting provider is the best option for the one who is serious about his online existence. In cheap hosting packages no doubt, prices are very cheap but you have to live with limited resources like CPU time and other server related resources.

No doubt that shared web hosting is reliable and has minimum tribulations; but still it’s not a better option than the dedicated web hosting. More advanced web site developers can make use any specialized software like a content management system, web log, customer support, discussion board or a shopping cart system in order to get the most out of the hosting package features.

Why is your website called the “Canadian Dragon”?
This page was originally created in 1997 because I am proud to be Canadian. Rather than taking insult to every stereotype surrounding Canada I chose to laugh at them, knowing that I am probably no better with my stereotypes regarding other countries. Besides, it is cold up here in the winter! It’s not much colder here in Nova Scotia than in New York however, but we measure temperature in degrees Celsius, not Fahrenheit, so it’s sounds much colder when we say it’s 0 degrees! As for dragons, well.I recently spied on an Ilsoren grandmaster, who was showing two warriors a new combat skill. He called it the Dragon Kick, and demonstrated an amazing, powerful kick that began a good six or more feet away from his target.

What is a dragon?
A dragon, or dragon kin, is a human being who has the soul or spirit of a dragon. Some dragons believe they were a dragon in a past life, and have now been reincarnated into a human body, but still carry many personality traits and mannerisms that reflect their dragon self. Many dragon kin also have memories of their past lives as a dragon. However, not all dragons believe they were a dragon in their past.Sure!

Why are your sections Dragon Themed?
With the exception of Fairy Kisses (because who would really want a kiss from a Dragon? Well I might, but that’s beside the point.) our sections have a distinct Dragon Theme. Besides the fact that Jennifer is Year of the Dragon (and loves dragons) the running joke is that we are like Dragons with our Treasure/Hoard. We get a little protective of our crystals, and we lovingly tend to them from the time we acquire them until they are lovingly boxed to travel to their new homes.As far as I know, there are only four dragons. And right now we’re all pretty much active, I believe. But you’ll have to ask Emerald Fire. As much as I love butting into everyone’s business, I’m not technically the voice of authority around here.” She grins crookedly at Emerald Fire, winking conspicuously.

Most impactions, dehydration, and/or other health issues can be prevented if you spend time with your Bearded Dragon and get to know its habits and behaviors. Keep a log of your care or issues you notice so that you can refer back.

Why are we called ‘Dragon’?
The Dragon’ is an ancient name for the energies of the Earth, and ley-lines are sometimes also called ‘Dragon lines’. In the mythology of Europe Dragons are closely related to serpents, which have always represented the dark, hidden power of the Earth.I recently spied on an Ilsoren grandmaster, who was showing two warriors a new combat skill. He called it the Dragon Kick, and demonstrated an amazing, powerful kick that began a good six or more feet away from his target. Standing at long range from a boulder, he used the kick to shatter the boulder. He explained that only highly skilled students would be capable of learning the Dragon Kick skill, and each must find and destroy a Dragon Claw to actually become trained.

For visitors to go back to your website, you must have good credibility. This is what comprises the basis for trusting and believing that the products being promoted are genuine and of high quality. It takes a lot of commitment and sincerity to convince the leads and convert them eventually into regular customers.

The following approaches to convert clicks into purchases are given to intensify your marketing credibility:

Strategy #1: Indicate the Reasons Why the Claim is true.

Explain why you claim that your site can provide quality products and services. It will help the customers learn information about the site and trust the message you posted.

e.g. When you acknowledge your site as “The Lowest Priced Luggage Retailer in Australia”, you must give justification for this, like the following:

* You buy container loads at a time and take advantage of bulk discounts (show photos of the containers)

* Your warehouse is located in the suburbs, where you have a much lower rent and therefore lower overhead

* Explain that your gross margins for one-time volume purchases are lower for regular customers.

* Most of your business comes via the Internet, avoiding the big media costs of your big-end-of-town competitors

Try to explain your objective for every promotion to convince the customers of your integrity. If you are selling on discounts or some of your products are on sale, explain the reason behind these actions. According to Jay Abraham, “You can’t discount your way out of a marketing problem; you need to educate your way out”.

Strategy #2: Case Studies and Testimonials

If I could only use ONE credibility-boosting strategy, Case Studies / Testimonials would have to be it.

Positive RESULTS are what you achieve to give to the customers and case studies and testimonials are mostly comprised of details about results. They are certainly concrete and specific as conveyed by customers. Keep in mind that results are what customers are after and not the product itself.

It goes without saying that your testimonials need to be genuine. Some sites feature testimonials that sound, well, fake. They use too many superlatives and read like they’ve been ripped from the pages of a Hollywood B-movie script.

To get a simple but sincere testimonial, provide your customers with a few guiding questions and let them respond in their own words. This way the site will have authentic and true testimonials.

You should also remember that Testimonials and Case Studies have become a standard feature on many websites. They can be easily ignored by website visitors UNLESS you go to the trouble of “exponentialising” them.

You can “Highlight” a Testimonial or Case Study by:

* Designing a creative headline

* Displaying it in a Johnson Box

* Emphasise important words and results with vivid graphics.

* Adding a photo, audio stream or video stream from the testimonial provider

* Put on view the particular famous trademarks and logos of clients.

* Exhibiting graphs, scanned documents, screenshots or visual images of results.

Strategy #3: Association Indicators, Qualification, and Membership Certifications

If your business is associated or affiliated with other professional groups, display the logo on your website. The symbol of membership will give clients the impression that your business is an organised one.

ISO 9001 is a well-known certification; other certifications and qualifications may sound unknown. You must inform and explain the details to the visitors and customers about these. The following are some suggestions to do that:

* Give proper details of the membership and certification.

* Describe how you obtained it.

* Clarify the perspective of the certification (e.g. ‘Marketing Results’ is one of only 16 Google Adwords Qualified Companies in Australia)

* Justify the customers’ advantages of the membership.

Certifications and qualifications are great, because they not only increase your ability to deliver for customers and clients, but they also start to flesh out a “360 degree” view of your company from multiple third-party perspectives that can serve to shorten the trust cycle.

Strategy #4: Awards and Recognitions

Industry Awards can also boost your standing in the eyes of prospects and clients, but don’t go too over the top patting yourself on the back – try to tie the award into how you produce a better outcome for clients.

One example is the Combo IT’s “Awards” page providing particulars of the awards they have won; the page also includes nomination to the prestigious BRW Fast 100 list. Combo is highly respected not only because of the prestige of the awards, but the quality performance and services the company has executed.

Strategy #5: 3rd Party Verification Services

Services from 3rd party such as Verisign, the Better Business Bureau and HackerSafe give customers further assurance that the site is safe and authentic to do professional practices and that their policies regarding customer services are reliable. Make your site verified not only to attract buyers, but to improve the quality of your industry and site as well.

Businesses and entrepreneurs have come to define article marketing as a brilliant way to advertise. This is because articles can be used to promote goods, but they also identify the marketers themselves as the experts in the field. Articles are used to convey ideas, in a journalism sense, but they can also strengthen legitimacy beyond what customers might read in local or see on the late night infomercials.

Article marketing is not a new concept. It has been around for about as long as mass-printing (i.e. offline publishing) has and found its way to the world of online marketing. In the past, a sort of symbiotic relationship existed between businesses providing free information and expertise in the form of written articles to publishers who would print the articles, which were essentially advertisements, at no charge. The articles would be written with certain target populations in mind, usually readers of the publication in which the article was to appear.

Most people who are familiar with the internet recognize article marketing when they see it, but that doesnat mean they understand how itas formulated or how they can write articles themselves. Letas begin by stating that the articles are short pieces and contain information about the type of business that needs to be promoted, or \”advertised.\”

Well written articles are valuable because they increase client-lists as well as enhancing reputations and credibility. They can be powerful enough to legitimize a business. Therefore, when you are writing an article, certain crucial information must be relayed to the reader: name, title, biography and contact information. If the article is being written for the internet, then a website or URL must be provided. Itas important to establish yourself as trustworthy and an expert in your field. Ideally, the biography will contain the information necessary to establish these two goals by containing credentials, educational background and achievements in your field.

Computers have brought an explosion of opportunities for e-commerce and business marketing, and therefore, the need for article marketing strategies. The concept of publisher-business partnerships of the past remains in place and it is still the driving force of article marketing even in cyberspace. It has become a powerful, cooperative way to reach target markets and millions of people.

The greater scope of online article marketing can be identified through closer examination of search engines: who uses them, what searches are being conducted and which sites are appearing in the search results. Having an online article which addresses a particular topic or industry and which contains certain akeywordsa is extremely useful for search engine optimization (SEO).

Any business or website that uses optimization strategies can increase traffic to their site. The more people, or visitors you can attract, the greater the potential for higher sales and profits. The role of the well written article in getting this higher number of sales is proof of the effectiveness of your marketing strategy. Including a business owneras website address also helps the site in getting a higher rank for search engine results.

The biggest drawback of this online explosion in article advertising on the web is that not all articles have correct information or good writing. This can lower the effectiveness of the advertising and then people who find you online get bad information, and that in turn effects the credibility of the business and the owner. Business owners can solve that problem and ensure good content by using article marketing services. These services can provide businesses with accurate and well written pieces that are also well distributed.

What we have shown in this article is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to answering the question, \”What is article marketing?\” You can be the best plumber in the world but that doesnat mean you have the technical savvy or writing skills to get your message across. While you may not be as knowledgeable as some cyber marketers, hopefully this information can help you understand the potential of how industry related articles can be effective in online marketing.

Yahoo, MSN, and Google, with the invention of their pay per click advertising model, also called PPC, have created simple and effective online advertising opportunities. These easy to use systems of advertising have encouraged so many business owners of different sizes to unleash thousands of dollars into online advertising campaigns. But, as often happens online, these PPC advertisers often don’t understand just how to create effective PPC campaigns that generate more sales for their companies.

Creating effective PPC campaigns can be simple. Below are five tricks you can use to be well on your way towards powerful and effective pay per click advertising campaigns.

5. Display URL. Once upon a time, Google allowed advertisers to put whatever they wanted into their display URL, the website address visible on the PPC advertisement. Now, your ad needs a real URL that everyone will land on when they click on your ad. You can’t even use a URL that redirects to a different website. For this reason, your display URL is even more important. Make sure you capitalize the first letter of each keyword in your display website name. For example, my website URL is www.creative-emarketingsolutions.com. When I use that URL in my PPC campaigns, I set the display URL as www.Creative-eMarketingSolutions.com. This capitalizing helps your business URL stand out from the pack.

4. Keywords in your first line of the ad. You only get four lines for your entire ad, and one of them is your display URL. The first line of your ad needs to grab the browser’s attention. It needs to set your ad apart from the dozens of other ads out there. It needs to tell the potential costumer, “Hey, I’ve got exactly what you’re searching for.”

3. Features vs. Benefits. The next line of your ad should display an important benefit of your products and services. The third line- the last one before the display URL- should explain a feature of your products or services. What’s the difference? A feature is why a customer should purchase your services or products, and a benefit explains how your customer’s needs will be met because of what you are selling.

2. Keywords. Well researched keywords will make the biggest difference in your pay per click campaigns. Use Google’s free keyword tool to select the best keywords by discovering which keywords are frequently searched for but have little competition. Keywords determine much of the pricing you pay, so do this step right!

1. Place your ads in even rotation. Make sure you create at least two different PPC ads that run simultaneously. By doing this, you are able to test different marketing messages to determine which ads convert into sales better than others. Don’t let Google decide which ad is performing best. Check your campaign settings to make sure they show evenly over time.

It’s important to test different elements of your ad to see what makes a difference in your CTR (click through rate). Sometimes just switching one word can increase your CTR. Different headlines convert differently. Try varying your display URL, both with capitals and without. By running a couple ads in competition against one another, you can test all these different elements to see what works best. Then, when you’ve found an ad that outperforms the other, create a new ad and place that in competition with the original winner.

These five simple tricks will help you dominate in the competitive world of pay per click advertising. If you need assistance creating your own PPC campaigns, please don’t hesitate to ask our professional staff at www.Creative-eMarketingSolutions.com. We’ve been helping businesses succeed for years in the PPC arena, and we’d love to help you!

Writing attention grabbing headlines time after time, is the ultimate dream of every direct marketer; enjoying huge returns on investment the ultimate goal. Your skill in headline writing will determine whether you make a lot of money or very little. Striving to write the best headlines possible must be your absolute goal, which will lead to untold success, both personal and professional.

Below are some ideas that will help you craft the perfect headline for every direct marketing situation.

The questions you must ask yourself are:

Does your headline drive the prospect to want to buy now – or later?

Starting off with a yawn could make it seem as though even an extremely enticing product has no sense of urgency attached.

Read lots of direct-mail campaigns that come through your door, and especially those that drove you to buy straight away – study their headline copy. You’ll learn a huge amount.

Headlines need to sell their products

You know that what you’ve got to offer is irreplaceable, but does your soon-to-be client know that? They should realize this as soon as they read that top line.

But do check to make sure that you’ve described the product or service in such a way that it sounds so useful, and so interesting that the prospect will want to keep on reading to find out more about it.

Headlines need to stand out

This is where your headline should outline the uniqueness of the product or service.

Scouring your product labels and picking the minds (getting feedback) of your employees should reward you with a treasure trove of reasons that your product deserves to be bought. If it’s unique and valuable, you have to point out why- immediately.

Is the headline specific and clear?

Being ambiguous is not an option.

While your writing should never wander away from your points for a moment, your headline needs to be unambiguous enough that there’s no possible misunderstanding. Straying from your strongest appeals simply isn’t an option in such a short, yet important “pitch.”

The masters of headline copy are magazine writers. You only have to visit any newspaper stand or shop to see the row upon row of magazines and newspapers on offer.

Copywriters know their audience very well, and write very compelling copy, in as few a words as possible to ensure their headline are punchy, and compelling.

When you next buy a magazine, ask yourself why did you pick that particular magazine instead of the other. Was it anything to do with the copy perhaps?

Is my headline doing it’s job?

When you put these four key techniques into place, your headline will be pulling double duty. It will first grab the prospect’s attention then secondly select her. Because it would’ve said something meaningful to her but on the flip side, had the opposite effect on someone else.

It’s interesting to note; prospects read headers five times as much as they read the whole copy, which means for every dollar the advertiser spends, 80 cents of his advertising dollar is spent on the header.

According to world famous copywriter David Ogilvy, the headline is the most important part of an advertisement.

So based on that logic and compelling evidence, it would stand to reason that you spend 80% of your time crafting that perfect header. It would be time well spent.

That’s just how important the headline is.

Pay per click advertising (PPC) is a fantastic way to send visitors to your website. PPC web advertisement campaigns are the new way to reach your target audience online. When used correctly, and there are tricks to the trade, PPC methods trigger sales and improve traffic to your site.

There is an ideal list of key words or phrases that relates to your product or service when starting with your PPC advertising campaigns. You just need to find it. A quality keyword strategy is what you need to make sure you get the right audience and gain a sale. So it is important to do more than optimizing these words and this is the most tricky part of PPC advertising. Reaching the customers who will buy from you needs proper targeting that will allow you to rule out people who are not interested in your products.

Keywords can trap you in a bidding war if you’re not careful and the most expensive words come with the promise of high rankings on the search page. High ranking ads get much of the traffic, particularly the highest ranked three on each page. But if the person clicking on your ad decides they don’t want your product, you’ve paid a high price for someone to look at your site. This is way targeting your keywords is the best tactic.

The keyword’s popularity decides the price you’ll pay for your ads and prices can vary from one search engine to another. Costs start as low as a cent per click and get up as high as a dollar and over. That’s why PPC campaigners monitor their ads, so that they can get the most out of their investment. There are tools available to help you understand what’s working and what’s not, this way you can tell what keywords are working by measuring clicks and sales. It’s best to replace words that aren’t working for you.

It might be hard to pay enough for some keywords to make sure your ad’s at the top of the page. For some search engines, writing your ad well and making sure it’s relevant can help your placement. For instance, well designed sites that rank well in Google’s quality scoring are likely to get better placement than sites that look like placeholders, or which could be mistaken for fraudulent sites. Some sites will also allow you to run ads intermittently – you could choose to have ads up only on weekends, for instance.

Consider you ads carefully, as failure to achieve a high placement, or failing to make your webpage attractive to visitors, are common reasons for failed PPC ad campaigns. So, be very certain that your landing page and your ad go well together. Ads should be relevant to the keywords you’re using, as well as eye-catching.

Testing the effectiveness of your advertising is important. A change of one keyword will sometimes have an enormous change on the rate of people who are clicking and purchasing the product. You can test them and see which words work best and by doing so, you can write advertising variations for each new word.

PPC advertising is a great way to market your product and services and make a profit. A well designed and organized campaign means sales for small and middle-sized business owners is a definite possibility. Knowing who your potential customers are and doing the right advertising will lead you to success.

Because it allows you to target prospects specifically by interest and location, pay per click advertising, or PPC, is one of the best options available. You can measure results precisely, and control ad spending, too. It’s also more affordable for small business owners than many other options, including billboards, television and radio.

Like anything else, PPC has disadvantages and shouldn’t be entered into without doing your homework. Hundreds or even thousands of dollars worth of advertising could be wasted if you attempt a campaign that isn’t planned and doesn’t have a strategy. There is a lot of information offering guidance when deciding your PPC strategy, so it’s a good idea to learn more about it.

Starting up is easy enough, anyone can get involved without having to sit down with a manual for a few days. There are a few basic tips, though, for anyone thinking about experimenting with pay per click it’s a good idea to examine them close. The majority of mistakes are really easy to fix so that PPC campaigns can get back on track fast. This is a small list of the most common mistakes people make, and how to fix them.

Mistake 1. Using your home page as a landing page isn’t an effective way to convert clicks to sales. No matter what search engine you’re using, the landing page is the key to making the sale. Deciding where customers are directed, instead of just showing everyone your home page when they click on an ad, is the fastest and best route for the customer. Start sending them to other links and places and they will get lost and return back to the search page, probably to click on one of your competitors ads.

People who click on your ad are looking for something very specific. It was their keyword search that brought them to your ad, so lead them straight to the sale when they click. Landing pages work, they allow you to present your customers with exactly what they’re looking for. Focus your landing pages on keywords you’re using in your advertisements.

Mistake 2. Landing pages that are confusing lose sales. Your PPC campaign will work by giving a customer an ad targeted to their keyword. The landing page they then arrive at should be related to that keyword, so don’t give the customer an excuse to back out. Make it easy for them to find what they are looking for. You should have multiple landing pages if you are promoting multiple items with keywords or phrases.

3. Using generic copy for your ads. Statements that work in other media formats probably won’t transfer to PPC. Catch phrases like “quality service” just aren’t part of the vocabulary when people are using search engines. Use a main keyword in a headline that creates interest, then tell them the benefits. Line three is perfect for special features or a discount offer. Take a look at what other advertisers are doing online.

4. Low bid placement. All search engines use their own methods for determining where to put your ad. Yahoo and Google use a combination of the relevancy of your ad, and your bid price. One big mistake that many people make is not tightly targeting keywords enough to get top placement. As much as eighty-five percent of all PPC clicks happen on ads in one of the top three positions. If you can’t focus your ads tightly enough to get that top spot, you’re missing out on a lot of traffic.

PPC and SEO are the two biggest forms of internet marketing. PPC stands for pay per click. SEO is Search engine optimization.

PPC quickly gets you noticed and can quicly cost you your whole advertising budget. The most popular place for PPC is Google AdWords, those little ads you see all down the right side of the screen when you do a search on Google.

The ads that show up next to the search results are a paid advertisement by someone who paid for that keyword phrase you searched for. Internet marketers do lots of research to find out which keywords will give them the best results in selling their products and services.

Getting a site to show up on the left side of the Google search results requires a little more patience and skill. A person who does this type of marketing uses SEO to get his website noticed.

While PPC is almost immediate it can get costly quickly. SEO takes longer but it doesn’t require as much attention once it has been done properly. The best part about it is that it doesn’t cost you any money to get those visitors to your site!

SEO experts are constantly tweaking their sites and web presence so they can keep their high rankings. They have what they call “on page optimization” and “off page optimization”. Both are very important.

On site optimization involves setting up your site with the keyword phrase spread throughout it in such a way that it seems natural but often enough to let the search engines know what your page is about. Off page optimization is the act of getting other websites to link back to your site. The object here is to have as many relevant sites as possible link to your page.

The more sites that link to yours the more credibility you have with the search engines as an important site in your particular niche. It is also wise to have the back links embedded into the keyword that you want your site to be ranked and known for. This is called using anchor text.

To become effective in internet marketing it is essential to learn both SEO and PPC. You can find experts all over the internet who can teach you how to master both types of marketing. There are also proffessionals who are already good at these who can do a great job for you.
