Long Time No Post

Sorry for the short palm period of no posting. I have just been so swamped with learning and trying out new techniques for internet marketing that I haven’t had any time to write a worthwhile post. I will me making a few changes to this blog which includes the layout.

The theme is rather plain to me now and also gives me a bunch of errors when I try to write a post or even save it as a draft. Stay Tuned…

Putting up a company would of course require a lot of things, to get straight to the point, you need a capital. To make money requires money as well. But of course, with the versatility the internet offers, there are many ways you could find that could help optimize the potential of your site or business in generating traffic. While there are ways to jump-start your traffic flow, many sites don’t have the resources that others have to generate more traffic for your site. Well, the truth is, you don’t have to spend a cent if you don’t want to; all you need is the proper mindset and a lot of eagerness. You also must have the drive and perseverance to do hard work and research to generate more traffic for your site.

Can you imagine the feeling of having more traffic to your site without spending a single cent? Now it’s a sure thing that many sites have articles that offer tips and guidelines in how to generate traffic using only free methods. Because it is possible, you don’t need to speed a single cent, it may take time, to say honestly, I’m not going to beat around the bush with you. You get better chances by paying for your advertisements, but at least you get a fighting chance with some of these free methods I’m about to tell you.

  • Take advantage of online forums and online communities. The great thing about forums and online communities is that you can target a certain group that fits the certain demographic that you are looking for. You can discuss about lots of things about the niche that you represent or offer. Another great advantage is that you know what you are getting into and you will be prepared. With online communities and forums you can build a reputation for your company. Show them what you are made of and wow them with your range of expertise about the subject, with that you can build a reputation and build trust with the people in your expertise and knowledge.

  • You can also make use of newsletters. Provide people with a catalog of your products and interesting and entertaining articles. If you make it really interesting and entertaining, more people will sign up for your newsletter and recommend it to other people. The more people who signs up for your newsletter, the more people there will be that will go to your site increasing your traffic.

  • Another great idea is trading links with other sites. You don’t have to spend a cent. All you have to do is reach an agreement with another webmaster. With exchanging links, the efforts both sites do will benefit both sites. Every traffic that goes to the site could potentially click on the link of your site and visit your site as well. This works well especially when both sites feature the same niche.

  • Write articles that could pique the attention of people that have interest in your product. Try writing articles that will provide tips and guides to other aficionados. Writing articles that provide good service and knowledge to other people would provide the necessary mileage your traffic flow needs.

  • Many sites offer free submission and posting of your articles. When people find interest in your articles they have a good chance of following the track by finding out where the article originated. Include a link or a brief description of your company with the article and there’s a great probability that they will go to your site.

  • Write good content for your site. Many search engines track down the keywords and keyword phrases your site uses and how they are used. It is not a requirement that a content should be done by a professional content writer. You could do your on but you have to make content for your site that is entertaining as well as informational. It should provide certain requirements as well as great quality.

  • Generally, internet users use search engines to find what they are looking for. Search engines in return use keyword searching in aiding their search results. With the right keywords, you could get high rankings in search engine results without the costs.

All of these methods and more will drive more traffic to your site for free. All it takes is a bit of effort and extended man hours. Learn all you can about the methods depicted here and you will soon have a site with a great traffic flow without the usual costs that come with it.

The single most important success factor in almost all businesses, is often the most OVERLOOKED. I know that I’m guilty of it, and I sometimes I still am. The fact is that having a plan/outline/timeline drawn out before venturing out and getting your feet wet could make the difference between success and failure of a new business, no matter how great the idea is.

Think about it, would you go into the battlefield with a gun and some ammo just shooting anything and hoping to get lucky? Or would you strategically scope your enemies out, locate all possible entry and escape routes, monitor guard patrol courses, and locate weak points so that you could exploit them?

Although planning a business isn’t as extreme as going into a warzone, they’re both based under the same principle and concept of having a plan. It determines success or failure. I believe the reason that many new entrepreneurs who don’t have a plan prior to starting a campaign is because they’re unsure on how to start one. Frankly about 90% of those who don’t know how to start one, don’t even bother to try. The truth is that planning requires patience and motivation. It may or may not be an overnight thing, use your time wisely and don’t rush yourself. Don’t half-ass it! A well thought out precision plan WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE. Ask yourself, “How badly do I want this to happen?”, and “What if this plan fails or doesn’t work? Do I have a backup plan?”

Here is a simple outline to follow to write your business plan out:

  • What is/are the product(s) I’ll be selling or reselling? Who is my target audience for my products? (Include all details: male/female, age, location, communitys, sports, events, etc)
  • If I’m creating my product, how will I be handling the creation of my products? Will I build it myself? Will I outsource the work? etc
  • What makes my product different and stand out oppose to the other similiar products out there?
  • How will I be handling purchase and delivery options for my products? Digital delivery, offline/online store, an 800 number, drop-shipping?
  • What’s the cheapest and best way to advertise my product(s)? A plethora of ideas swarm here: Word of mouth, PPC, SEO, Article Marketing, E-mail marketing, Buying advertising space, magazine advertising, blogging, etc
  • Will I be selling my products singlely or create a discounted price for purchase bundles?
  • Will I have employees? Will I be joint venturing?

The above is just a simple planning outline that everyone should be able to follow that should help you on your business venture. Plan before you begin, not the other way around. As I mentioned earlier, it can determine the success and failure of a new business.

Write For This Blog?

If anyone is interested in writing for this blog, go ahead and shoot me an e-mail. The military makes it hard to try to update this everyday, or as much as I would like to and I’ll be leaving again for 3 weeks on October 22nd. I need writers to help update this blog and feel free to link back to your blog/website in your posts.

I’m very sorry for the lack of updates for those who have been following this blog. I’ve just gotten back from a few weeks of underway trials on my ship to get the ship back to being re-certified again. This certification process consists of re-qualifying the engineering plant, operations, reactor and nuclear side and launching and recovering airplanes. It’s all a part of getting out of the shipyards, and being in the Navy.

In other news, I’ve decided to change the theme around this blog. The “make money online” theme will still remain intact but the “new and latest technology” side will be removed. I will be expanding the details about making money online, and it will not just be about blogging anymore. It will include internet marketing, creation of products, affiliate marketing, Forex, blogging, etc. Unlike John Chow, my personal aim is to not make a living by blogging but to make a living by being an internet entrepreneur. This blog will be used as a promotional tool but you can bet it’s going to be rich and full of content. It’s going to help people like YOU on your journey of profiting online in as many ways as possible. I will show you whats out there, I will show you the doors, it will be your choice to choose which door(s) you’d like to open and attempt.

Be prepared, a lot is on the way.
