Posted in: List Building by admin on October 31, 2007

Viral Spiral SecretViral Marketing is allowing people to giveaway and use your free product or service in order to multiply your marketing quickly over the internet. The idea behind viral marketing is that you include your ad with the freebie people give away or use. Below are ten high impact viral marketing strategies:

1. Allow people to reprint your articles on their website, in their e-zine, newsletter, magazine or ebooks. Include your resource box and the option for article reprints at the bottom of each article.

2. Allow people to use any of your freebies as free bonuses for products or services they sell. Include your ad on all your freebies.

3. Allow people to use your online discussion board for their own web site. Some people don’t have one. Just include your banner ad at the top of the board.

4. Allow people to sign up for a free web site on your server. Since you are giving away the space, require them to include your banner ad at the top of the site.

5. Allow people to add their link to your free website directory. Just require that they return a link back to your web site, advertising your directory.

6. Allow people to provide your free online service to their web site, visitors, or e-zine subscribers.They could be free e-mail, e-mail consulting, search engine submissions, etc.

7. Allow people to give away your free software. Just include your business advertisement inside the software program.

8. Allow people to give away your free web design graphics, fonts, templates, etc. Just include your ad on them or require people to link directly to your web site.

9. Allow people to place an advertisement in your free ebook if, in exchange, they give away the ebook to their web visitors or e-zine subscribers.

10. Allow people to give away your free ebook to their visitors. Then, their visitors will also give it away. This will just continue to spread your ad all over the internet.

Essential Rules for Effective Email Marketing

Posted in: Email Marketing by admin on October 30, 2007

If you want an email campaign to succeed, you don`t want to offend anyone when sending your messages. Turn off a consumer with your email and you can be sure they`ll tune out your message. Don`t let this happen to you!

A message that earns respect makes sales. That`s why our first topic for discussion is email etiquette. (Later in the course, we`ll talk more about how to write an email sales letter.)

Train yourself to always — and I mean ALWAYS — stick to the rules below when crafting your email message.

– RULE #1 - ALWAYS WRAP YOUR LINES AT 65 CHARACTERS OR LESS

Whenever you write an email, always format the lines so that they`re 65 characters, or less, across. To do this, you may need to do a “hard return” by hitting “Enter” at the end of the line.

Wondering why to limit your lines to just 65 characters? (Good question! It shows you`re thinking.) There are two reasons that “less is more”:

– The first thing to remember is that looking at a computer screen for a long time causes EYE FATIGUE for many readers. The shorter span of characters across the screen makes reading easier and more appealing to the recipient of your email message.

– The other reason to go short instead of long is this: some email clients AUTOMATICALLY ENFORCE LINE-WRAPPING at 60-65 characters on received messages. If your email is wrapped at 70, the content will arrive all “chopped up.” This makes it unattractive…and worse — unappealing.

– Tip within a Rule #1: Email clients such as Outlook Express allow you to SET THE LINE-WRAP to any character-width you choose. That means you won`t have to hit Enter each time after typing 65 characters. Makes life easier!

– Tip within a Rule #2 - You can type 65 asterisks or dashes in a Notepad file to create a template. Then paste your email below it to see if any lines extend too far to the right.

– RULE # 2 - BE CAREFUL USING ALL CAPS

How many times have you changed the TV channel to avoid listening to a screaming car salesperson? No one likes a screaming salesperson…and no one likes a “screaming” email message, either. Odds are, when someone has over-amped the volume of their message by using too many capital letters (not to mention too many exclamation points and other punctuation) - you`re going to be turned off.

On the Internet, email messages written in all caps are considered yelling. It`s okay to write some sentences and some words in all caps, but don`t go overboard. (As you can see in this message, I`ve tried to use capital letters to help break up sections of the content from time to time)

– Tip within a Rule: Consumers buy from a source they trust. Emails in all caps are perceived as “shady” or uneducated, and have an appearance that damages the credibility of an offer.

– RULE #3 - WATCH YOUR Ps & Qs (Spelling and Grammar)

Would you be influenced by an email selling you something that had noticeable spelling and grammar mistakes? Sure you would…and the influence would be negative, not positive! When a consumer reads a sales message that`s filled with errors, they think to themselves, “Good grief, this person doesn`t even take the time to get his emails right. His product is probably the same quality as his emails.”

When you`re in business, YOUR IMAGE IS YOUR REPUTATION and your reputation is the reason people buy from you or the guy down the block. It`s essential that you create an image of INTEGRITY, CREDIBILITY, and HONESTY in the mind of your prospects. Sending emails filled with errors doesn`t hurt your professional image…it destroys it. (Ouch!)

That`s it for now, but I`ll be back with more information for you, “I want to be EMPOWERED”

Is A Domain Name Really That Important?

Posted in: Domain Names by admin on October 29, 2007

People sometimes wonder as they are picking out a domain name if it’s really important or can you pick any name and have success. Let’s look at domain names and what is best for you. Always pick a domain name as the same as the name of your web site. This is important for a number of reasons, but the most important part is recognition of your web site. one thing you want a domain name to do is when they say it they know exactly what your web site is. It’s just smart business to have a domain name that reflects the kind of business that your into. It works out better and will build your business quicker because they know what they are looking for.

Should you use a generic name for your domain or get a name that is recognized. Generic names should be avoided at all costs if possible. A regular domain name that reflects what you and your web sites are doing is crucial to your success. many people will tell you to have a very short domain name as it gets to the point and people tend to remember it easier than a long name. I will agree with that assessment to a certain extent. Longer names are usually harder to remember, but if it’s a catchy phrase people will always remember it. For the most part though go with a short name compared to the long name.

Sometimes hyphenated domain names are something that you may want to consider if the main domain name you want is gone. Their are several drawbacks to it though. The biggest drawback is many people will forget to put it in which means that they won’t get to your web site. When people talk about your web site they don’t usually talk in hyphens so that could be a problem and you could lose a lot of traffic because it. Now it’s not all bad news with hyphens though. Search engines can easily determine keywords better and you could get a good search engine rankings because of it. The hyphen also gives you a closer chance to get the domain name that you want. My opinion though is stay away from hyphenated domain names as much as possible. Domain names now come in many different ends such as com,org.us,tv,net and even more it seems. The bottom line with all the names is if you can get a .com than that is the one you want to go with. More people seem to relate to .com names than anything else so that should be your first choice.

Simple things to remember is that domain names should be bought before you get your web site. Try to get the domain name you want if it’s available. If it’s not than try to get another extension if possible. Short names are usually best and try to stay away from real long ones if all possible. Hyphenated names should be avoided if possible. They usually don’t work out real well so that’s an idea you should consider. Domain names can make a real big difference in your business and if anyone tells you different don’t you believe it. How many domain names can you name off the top of your head. It’s simple people remember domain names and web sites they love. Getting the perfect domain name is crucial and you should always keep that in mind. if you do that than you shouldn’t have any problems getting your business going very fast without any trouble at all
