In this communication era, to promote for any kinds of products efficiently, a businessperson must think about looking for help from the Internet. These are some tips to have a successful online promotion.

First, you have to build up a good website to introduce about your company, advertise for your products, bring up promotional programs and contact with your clients worldwide. With just one click, potential customers can be on your site and make any deals they wish. Therefore, you have to update your web pages frequently for both content and design that will attract viewers’ attention.

Tips for building a good website:

- Content: List out focused keywords and tailor your web pages with them.

- Design: Make some banners that CATCH viewers’ eyes. Animated banners tend to attract people better than static ones.

Secondly, you should think of direct marketing via emails. Every week, every month or every special occasion, send newsletters to your customers to inform your promotional program or just give them some gifts. This activity must be repeated to remind customers about your company products and encourage them to come back to your website.

Thirdly, you can use referral links to advertise on other sites. Posting an article or a press release, you should give out links to your company web pages directly or indirectly, which can improve your website traffic. I do not want to mention about the content of your articles or press releases, but the titles of them. Currently, there are millions of articles and press releases on PR websites. Thus, to catch readers’ eyes, your titles must be attractive, unique and interesting, for example, “Advertising – Friend, not Foe”, “Rock DJ”, “Writing Killer Sales Letter”, “Pro and Profitable website”, etc.

Finally yet importantly, that is advertising on online magazines. You might think that it is a costly way, or might you not? However, there are some ways, that do not influence money in your pocket much, and sometimes they promote your selling very well. If you are a software producer, you should contact with some editors of international IT magazines who find companies and request free softwares to include in their CD/ DVD cover mount. During the discussion, you can persuade editors to get one of your softwares and make the branding for the software you wish. For example, you offer free full version of Voice Changer Software and then advertise for Voice Changer Software Diamond 4.0. Moreover, you can improve your selling by providing some coupons for readers to buy latest version of your software. For instance, readers of XYZ magazine can use the coupon of $30 to buy Music Morpher Gold 3.0 at the price of $69.95 instead of $99.95. With these ways, you can encourage your website traffic as well as opportunities to get more orders from readers worldwide.

Well-prepared promotional projects can help you to advertise your products, popularize your brand name, and draw more potential customers. Remember that do make use of the Internet to perfect your online promotional plans.

If you have spent more than a few minutes studying search engine optimization and web traffic building then you know that text links are important — most especially one-way links from quality sites.

So many people interested in building traffic to their sites spend a lot of time, effort, and money building text links to their sites. They purchase links in link directories, buy links from brokers and site owners, and even swap links. Others try different methods like forum posting, blog commenting, and article writing.

But most of these people overlook one very easy and inexpensive way to achieve one-way, often permanent, text links from quality sites. What is this method of text linking? It is usually called Ezine Advertising!

That’s right, just like pork is the other white meat, ezine advertising is the other way to text link.

There are many advantages of ezine advertising when it comes to text link building:

1. You get the added bonus of email marketing benefits

2. Text link surrounded by relevant content, your ad copy, that you wrote specifically for that purpose

3. Limited outbound links competing with yours. Ezines only sell a few ads per issue (many only sell one or two) so your text link will be only one of a few.

4. When the issue is archived on the web (which is how you achieve your permanent text link) the page is usually text-heavy with the content that search engines love

5. The site where your permanent text link resides (the ezine archives) is regularly updated and in turn regularly visited by search engines

All these advantages roll into one additional bonus for you. The text links appear to have developed organically and naturally — not as so many traditional text links do — which makes them even more powerful and effective in terms of traffic building and search engine optimization.

And unlike so many text links which are purchased monthly or for a limited time, an ezine ad is purchased for a particular issue and will remain alive for the months or years that the issue is archived. If you aren’t sure how long an ezine archives then check their web site. Many ezines and newsletters archive for years.

On Friday, the 26th of August, the concept of the Million Dollar Home Page appeared and it revolutionized online advertising forever. The concept, created by Alex Tew, was simple, for one dollar you can purchase one pixel and there will only be one million pixels available. A minimum purchase is a 100 pixel block, which will link back to whichever website you specify. At the beginning it was not clear it would work, but amazingly it did. It came out of nowhere and became unbelievable successful within a span of few months. Once the website had reached the awaited million dollar mark, the number of sites that copied the idea would almost match that amount. Scattering all over the World Wide Web, none of these duplicate sites proved to be successful as they all began to fail miserably. Some sites would be a simple twist on the idea, and others would be a direct duplicate with a different name. Regardless, it remained clear that no one would find the same success and the hope for another site to reap the same outcome became bleak. Was it simply a fad, or was it just a matter of time before new, and more exciting and innovative ideas would appear?

It was mid March, seven months after Alex Tew’s creation, when the next big idea began to appear on the Internet. The game is different this time, but focuses strictly on innovative advertising. The idea of Take the Spot, imagined and created by Pratik Naik, began to be gain popularity all over the Internet. It has already been proclaimed as the next Million Dollar idea. Rightfully so, Take the Spot’s growth has already been staggering within the first ten days of opening. Receiving over thousands of hits and hundreds of dollars, the website is off to a phenomenal start.

We had the pleasure to interview Mr. Naik and asked him to tell us more about his inspiration for the creation of this idea, “I wanted to create a source of advertising that thought of the people first, and not only focusing on my personal gains. Sites that are simply made to copy the success of Alex Tew do not work because people know that it does not benefit the investor, but only the site owner and they are smart enough to see that. It was about time advertisers found a website that could first and foremost benefit them. I took examples of many successful business models along with popular websites and analyzed their success, I found a formula that not only worked, but enhanced it so that it would benefit the advertisers even more. I wanted to create the most cost effective way to advertise on the Internet, and this is what I have come up with. Most sites out there are only made for personal benefit, so I turned the focus around to you, the buyer/advertiser. With the mindset of an investor looking for the most cost effective solution, Take the Spot was made.”

With innovative websites such as Take the Spot and Million Dollar Home Page, focused to help advertisers bring in more traffic while only spending a minimal amount, the future of creative advertising seems as though it has just begun. Some people believe it is just a fad, and others believe it is here to stay. As long as more people with innovative minds such as Alex Tew and Pratik Naik continue to develop their ideas, this trend in creative advertising will become the norm.

Although it is clear that most website users of the internet use search a engines to find their destination, is there a better alternative?

I recently had a look at the stats of a website I have been working on. To my amazement only 5% of the visitors came from other websites or search engines, the rest were direct requests. This website is only 3 months old, so it is fairly new with barely any link popularity, but for such a new website an average of 150 visitors a day, is not too bad.

I asked the owner how he was promoting his website, and to my amazement he was using none other than flyers. The website is advertising his adventure tourism business, as you may have noticed when you visit a tourist destination there are plenty of flyers on the counter. Advertising all sorts of accommodation or locations to visit.

He employed a very smart Graphical Designer to create a flyer that is very eye catching. These flyers are so catchy that he has told me that he never has enough. You may be thinking that this is expensive because you have to pay for the printing, but in actual fact it is much cheaper than some internet advertising. For instance to even have his website listed optimally on Googl’s Adwords he would be paying in excess of 50c a click. Whereas printing flyers that can be passed on for years only cost 23c each.

On the other hand some people choose to spend thousands on optimising their websites, gambling to be in the top of the results. Or you could choose to use paid advertising, but targeting your potential customers can be difficult and costly. I am certain that the old fashioned flyer advertising is here to stay.

The benefits of flyers are astronomical; targeting your audience is the key to success. Travel destinations, travel agents and rental agencies are all targeting his potenshal customers. Since he first began his business, he has always used flyer advertising, and with the amalgamation with the website business is soaring. This indicates to me that with the synergy of the real world and the internet we can create very powerful advertising campaigns.

As a local business owner you wear many hats and you have countless responsibilities. Consequently you’re not always able to follow-up on opportunities that could advance your business. It is the nature of running a business.

Once an awhile an opportunity comes along that you absolutely should not pass up. In this case it is a business listing on both Google and Yahoo local. Not only can it generate targeted traffic in your area, but the listing is FREE. And here is another reason why you need to jump on this, it doesn’t matter if you have a web site or not, you still qualify for the free listing.

Why would you want a free business listing with Google and Yahoo?

Because they are the two largest search resources online, and account for approximately 78% of the total search results. But even more important is the fact that your customers are searching for local products and services online in greater numbers. In some surveys it is suggest that as much as 25% of all Internet searches are local in nature.

Your customers are turning away from the cumbersome yellow pages. Instead their utilizing the content rich resources of the Internet. You have to ask yourself – if you competitors are listed and you are not, when a prospect searches online which business will most likely end up with a new customer?

How hard is it to list your business?

It can be done in less then an hour. Below are the two locations:

Local Business Center – https:.google.com/local/add/login?hl=en-US&gl=US

Yahoo Local – local.yahoo.com/ (Click on the “Add/Edit a Business “ link at the bottom of the page)

The Benefits of a Local Listing

Besides the excellent exposure, you get to list important details about your business, including:

In addition to company details, Google and Yahoo both provide an interactive map for locating your business. I’m sure most of you have utilized the mapping service of either of these search engines and know how convenient it makes finding a business. Not only can customers find out who you are, but they also can pinpoint where you are.

As I mentioned, neither of these services require a web site, but when you combine your listing with a link to a killer web site you are in position to do so serious customer conversion. For those lacking a web site, Yahoo offers a free 5 page site. It allows you to get a basic web presence until you get the real thing up and running.

At this point few businesses are cashing in on local Internet marketing. For those that are the results show a higher ROI, and an improved customer conversion rate.

The future of your local business will depend on how effective you are in reaching your customers online. Getting a free listing on Google and Yahoo Local is an excellent start.

Did you know that your tracking url could be costing you sales?

It’s true! Repeatedly experienced marketers have learned that using a tracking link lowers the click through rate of any ad. If you think about it this does make sense. How often do you click through on a link that reads like a line of gibberish?

First and foremost, the internet is about trust. If you do not offer a link that at least appears “trustworthy” then many people aren’t going to click. And ask yourself the hard question? Does a link filled with an odd sequence of letters and numbers appear trustworthy to you?

Another drawback to using a tracking url is that ezine ads often have a very long life — often much longer than that of any tracking url or program. You don’t want to lose out on the potential of a long-term link or future visitors because of your tracking url.

If you are able to use your main web site address or a subpage then it just appears so much more trustworthy. Plus you are more likely to catch people in the future who lost your original ad but NOW want to visit your site. They will never remember a complicated tracking url but may remember BoatsRus.com etc.

No matter how much you want to be able to promote your web site directly there is still that tricky question of being able to track click throughs. Well there is actually a simple (and free) way to do both.

You create a redirect page.

This way you can promote your main url and have a unique page to track clicks. In fact, you can even name your page something to make it even more clickworthy, such as boatsrus.com/classicboats.php .

You can create unique landing pages for any number of advertisements but this might be time consuming. It is far simpler to code that page with a redirect script that loads whatever sales landing page you choose.

Now you can track your clicks without worrying about losing customers due to unfriendly tracking urls. You will always have full control over the url so you can change the redirect destination at any time and if you ever choose to take it down the visitor will still land on your site. It is the perfect tracking system! It also works great for affiliate links.

My name is Shawn and my wifes name is Erin and we were married March 15th, 1997. This is our story of a struggle to have a child and what we are doing to overcome the struggle to make our dream come true.

While our marrige has been wonderful and God has given us each other, there has always been something missing. This something is a child of our own to love and to care for. Even prior to our being married my wife and I had discussed and dreamed of having a child of our own. Early on we even bought baby name books and had picked out what we liked best after going through the books several times reading every name out loud so we could see how it would sound with our last name. We tried to have a child for the first year we were married. We then seeked medical help. It turns out that my wife can’t get pregnant naturally. The only way she could get pregnant was by the aid of invetro surgery. This procedure cost $20,000 per try with no gurantee of success. My wife was in college and I was are sole support. We had a mortgage, two car loans and other bills to pay. There was no way I could earn enough money for us to have a child at that time and we thought it would be best if we waited until my wife graduated college before starting to save for the invetro surgey procedure.

Six months prior to my wife graduating college I was injured at work. I drove a 18 wheeler tank truck at gas drilling rigs in North Texas. I hauled drilling mud, water and other chemicals to and from the rigs. On the day I was injured it had been raining all day and the night prior to that dreadful day. The water was standing knee deep for a good 300 yards all away around the rigs with rain and lightning coming down around me. I called my dspatcher and told him of the conditions at the rigs that I was working on that day. The dispatcher (and his infinite wisdom) told me to keep working. Like the good little worker I was, I stayed and did my job. I had loaded my truck and was walking (wading) back to the cab of the truck when I stepped into a hole around two feet deep that I couldn’t see do to the deep, brown water. My right ankle and foot collapsed to one side and my body fell in the opposite direction tearing the main nerve (almost in two) on the inside of my right ankle. I endured four surgeries to try and correct the problem with no success.

It has been five long years since I was injured on the job and after my last foot surgey I have formed what is referred to as CRPS type II (complex regional pain syndrome). It is a very painful disorder that requires me to have a morphine pain pump implant and take oral nerve and pain medications to help control my painful condition so that I can do simple day to day tasks that most people take for granted. However, I’m getting around better than I could prior to having my morphine implant implanted.

Erin, my wife who I love with all of my heart and soul finally graduated college as valedictorian. She is so smart. She means the world to me and I very much want for her to have a child because I know she wants one more than anything, as do I.

We have a home in North Texas but we have chosen to purchase a fifth wheel trailer so that Erin can work as a traveling nurse. Working as a traveling nurse pays twice as much as it does working at a local hospital back home.

It has been almost two years since we hit the road so Erin could work and we still don’t have our fifth wheel paid for so we haven’t been able to save much for our baby fund yet. This is also partially due to our home that we have had for sale for the past year that hasn’t sold. We even lowered the price to what we owe and threw in the riding lawn mower but still haven’t had any luck in selling it. This is costing us around $1,100 per month.

Since my injury we have had to file bankruptcy, sell off most that I had worked so hard for over the years.

Erin and I would like to have a child some day before it’s too late. Again, the only way we can have a child is invetro surgury. As many people know it doesn’t always work the first time around and one try can cost around $20,000.00 with the meds. Erin and I just don’t have the income to achieve this in enough time for us to have a child.

Soon after the foot surguries I realized that I wasn’t ever going to be able to work again so I started teaching myself how to create websites and market them in order to make a living. Thus far I haven’t gotten rich doing it but I have brought in some extra money over the years. During this time I have managed to learn a lot about creating websites and marketing them so I put that information to good use and opened Money2Surf.us. I figured everyone needs to market their website and products in order to bring customers to their sites. Since I had just about every book on the subject and I had experience in marketing my other websites that I could help webmasters bring potential customers to their site and in return they would help Erin and I have the child we have always wanted.

Money2Surf advertising is a pixel advertising website that I opened to help see our dreams of having a child come true and with your help Erin and I can finally have the child that we have always longed for and website owners can finally get a steady stream of potential customers to their sites. Some of the proceeds of Money2Surf advertising will be used for us to have a child and to setup a small savings account for our childs education. Any remaining money will go towards a childrens charity such as “Feed The Children” and “St.Judes Childrens Hospital”.

If you will notice we will only be keeping enough money for one try at invetro surgey. This is all that we are asking for, one chance to have a child.

Time is of the essence! We need to sell pixels as soon as possible. We are hoping to have all of the pixels sold by December 2007 so if you have a website and our struggling with sales then our site can help you! We are also asking you to help us spread the word about our pixel page.

When I came up with this idea it was only a few days after I heard about the college student (Alex Tew) that created this script to help pay his way through college. I scraped up just enough money to purchase this script in hopes to fufill Erin and I’s dream of having a child and help the less fortunate children get what they need.

Using our pixel site you can advertise your website or your affiliate website. Here are just some examples of what you can advertise on our pixel site: cell phones, ring tones, earn money online opportunities, autosurf websites, paid to read websites, gadgets, electronics, stereos, computers, laptops, software, clothes, apperal, baby products, sports equipment, exercise equipment and just about anything else you can imagine. The only things we don’t allow to be advertised is porn, hate websites or anything not suitable for family viewing. Please check our FAQ’s page. If you have your own website and your trying to sell products on them then this site can help you with those sales.

By you purchasing pixels at Money2Surf advertising your traffic will take off for whatever website you advertise and your site will be advertised for at least the next ten years! This site is already located in the search engines. Please know that your proceeds will be going to a very good cause. You will be elping Erin and I have a child of our own and help the less fortunate children in the world.

For more information about what pixel advertising can do for your site please visit our site (the link is in the resources box of this article).

Thank you all and God Bless!

Introduction:

This is a series of articles about marketing and advertising. There are different ways you can reach an audience of millions of individuals all around the world. I show you on this series how to implement profitable strategies in your marketing career.

It has been said that “what matters is not what you sell but how you promote it.” So, the secret to success lays within your marketing techniques. That’s why it is very important for business owners to develop skills which allow them to increase the sales of their products.

One of the most important skills you must have is the ability to reach a lot of people quickly. To do this you need to realize how powerful media is an how it can drastically increase your revenues.

– Link exchanges –

Link exchange is another way to increase your exposure for free. Let me explain. There are millions of web sites out there right? So when someone is looking for an specific subject on the Internet, Search engines list the most relevant pages first.

For example, if the surfer types in the search bar the keyword real estate, the most optimized real estate related web sites are the ones which will appear first. There are thousands of web sites related to this subject competing for placement. You don’t want yours to appear in the 17th page right? You want it to appear if possible within the first page.

Now, achieving that rank is hard. There are different tools you can use to improve your web pages optimization. I have already mentioned some of them. You see, one of the most important aspects you will have to take into consideration if you want to increase your site exposure is link popularity.

The more pages out there linking to your site, the more popular your site will be and the more visitors you will receive. You can increase your link popularity through link exchanges. You can go to certain web sites and arrange deals with other web masters. You can post links on your web site to other web masters’ sites as long as they do the same thing with you.

This will be beneficial for both of you. Think of it as having business partners who can refer new clients to you on a daily basis while you do the same for them. The best thing is that it all happens automatically without either of you lifting a finger. The Internet takes care of it.

After the exchanges are completed you will receive visitors from their web sites and they will receive visitors from yours. For example let’s say you set up an online dating business with the intention to sell your dating magazine.

Using many of the advertising techniques described in this series you can attract a lot of customers. Some of them will be also interested in some of the web pages you are linking to. So they will click on those links and visit those pages.

The same will happen to you. You will receive extra traffic from “your Internet partners” which are linking to you. Furthermore, you can also achieve better rankings on the search engines if you have many websties linking to yours.

Some experienced marketers think that if you write articles it won’t be necessary for you to exchange links. But some successful online business owners combine these and many other techniques to increase their exposure.

It can basically bring you extra traffic which is good, it is very good. For your convenience I have provided bellow a list of link exchange web sites. Visit these sites and sign up with their programs if you are interested.

As you can see, this technique can increase your exposure and help you get more clients. You can read about other effective marketing techniques from my other articles on this series.
