5 Proven Methods for Internet Marketing Success

5 PROVEN METHODS FOR INTERNET MARKETING SUCCESS! By Sharon Way Here are five proven methods to generate traffic to your website and put income in your wallet! From offering a "freebie", publishing articles, purchasing ranking in a pay per click program or networking and advertising. These are all proven, profitable and successful internet marketing methods. 1. One thing that appeals to everyone is "free." If it is free people will take it. "Free" offers a product at no cost and attracts that individual to click on your website, view your webpage and perhaps purchase a product or become an affiliate. One popular "freebie" on the internet recently has been downloading and obtaining free ebooks or subscribing to a free newsletter. Also, offering a free trial period when selling a product is very effective in obtaining and selling a consumer. Studies have shown consumers are more receptive to purchasing a product with a longer money back guarantee - the longer the better - (90 days or longer seems to be the most effective!) So, you can send out free ebooks and newsletters and/or offer a free trial period. This is a great way to start and add on to your opt-in email list, create sales or to generate traffic to your site. 2. Your website contains information about a service or product that you are very knowledgeable about. You can use this knowledge to generate traffic to your site by writing articles in your area of expertise and having them published in an ezine or an article information site. The most effective way to use these articles is to write them for free and ask in return that the publisher allow you to include a resource box. A resource box is a very short summary of the author, their credentials and their website. Your resource box is a way that readers will come to know you as an expert on the topic and will in turn come to trust your site as a source of credible information. 3. Some search engines will allow a website to purchase their ranking. This is an excellent Internet marketing technique in that it is effective and inexpensive. In the pay-per-click programs, websites are only billed for those who actually visit the page, unlike banner ads which may be seen by millions but only used by a few. When using the pay-per-click program you are asked to choose keywords and when those are entered your site will appear and if the surfer chooses to view your site, you are billed for that click. Many pay-per-click programs will offer other benefits as well, such as updated lists of commonly used keywords. 4. You should remember that others are in the same boat as you. You can choose to network with those who have similar marketing ideas. When networking you will be able to share links and refer customers to each other. You should always be very cautious when choosing a networking partner as everything that you recommend is a reflection of yourself or your product and therefore, you should be certain that your networking partner is a reputable source of information. 5. Simply because your website is online, doesn't mean that all your advertising needs to go through the internet. Advertise in newspapers (community, city, state), through friends/relatives (don't forget to leave a business card!), or even TV and radio (local TV and radio may be a more cost effective option). All five methods are useful in attracting consumers, potential affiliates and adding on to your opt-in email list. I highly recommend offering a free ebook or newsletter & publishing your own articles. See below for some useful links in doing this.
