1. Free advertising
writing and submitting articles is the best way of promoting your web site by creating more visibility for your website, product or service. It is free to do and all it takes is your time to write the article.

2. Write about your Business
Writing an article about your business or whatever you wish to promote is not that hard. If you are stuck on something to write, read a few articles on the same topic and the put the article into your own words. Another good idea is every time you talk to your customers make a few notes about the these conversations and then turn it into an article.

6. Multiple links from just one article
When other people or sites publish your article they are promoting you and your website by using your article, including the link to your site, on their web site, or blog, which is another way to increase traffic to your site

Becoming an Internet Marketing Warrior

The Internet Marketing frontier can be confusing for the beginner. It can even be confusing for the professional! Finding a group of other marketers can offer innumerable benefits to the novice marketer. Believe it or not, there is already a community of internet marketers, running the gamut from complete beginner to those who are making their full living with IM. Let’s take a look at this community and talk about how to get the most out of it.

The Warrior forum.
The site is called the Warrior Forum, and is located at http://www.WarriorForum.com. This is a community of internet marketers from around the world who share experience, knowledge, and their products with one another. Some of the most exciting parts of the Warrior Forum are the Warrior Special Offers, or WSOs. This is where Warriors offer one another special deals on their new products, or exclusive offers only for other Warriors.

Advantages of the Warrior Forum
The Warriors are a tight-knit group, and are very supportive and helpful. Joining the Warriors, you must remember that in order to gain the Warrior’s support, you must become a Warrior yourself! Sign up, and then enter the Main Warrior Discussion. Ask a question, or assist others with their issues. Spend a week or two just browsing the discussions and throwing in where you have something beneficial to put forth. Make sure you don’t spam the forum – even clever spam efforts are transparent to the Warriors, and your account will be called into question. Maintain proper forum etiquette, and make yourself useful to those who need help on subjects that you are good at.

You will shortly find a few Warriors who are interested in doing something that you are interested in. You may find that they are willing to partner up with you. Here is the true power of the Warrior forums – finding partners for product creation, promotion, or cross-promotion. Two heads are better than one, and maybe your knowledge and another Warrior’s technical expertise can create that million dollar website! Keep your ear to the ground and remain active in discussions on the forum to look for mutually beneficial opportunities.

The Special Offers
Finally, give back to the Warriors, not only by becoming a helpful contributor to the Main Discussion, but by offering the Warriors special discounts or deals on your products and services. The Warrior Special Offers forum is where you post your WSO, and you will find an immediate and responsive audience in the other Warriors. Here you will also find other Warriors’ amazing products, and can get them at a bargain, simply by virtue of being a fellow Warrior.

I hope you are beginning to see the advantages to becoming a Warrior. Internet marketing can be a lonely, frustrating process, and having the assistance of experiences marketers can be an incredible asset. Check out the forum and get involved – you won’t regret it!

Finding the Right Balance for Arbitrage

Arbitrage, or using PPC (pay-per-click) to drive traffic to your website in an effort to get people to click on your ads, is a tricky, but potentially very profitable tactic for making money online. When using Adwords to drive traffic to Adsense pages, there are a few things to keep in mind. You must find the right balance of content, relevance, and ads to keep Google happy, or else you’ll find your Adsense account banned and your website ignored by Google’s crawler. Worse yet, you may blow loads of money in PPC to find only a fraction of your costs returned in ads.

Let’s look at some important factors in finding the right balance for your arbitrage campaigns.

You must have relevant content
Probably the single most important factor in pulling off a successful arbitrage campaign is relevant content. If the page you send clicks to via Adwords (or another PPC engine) contains relevant content, you are clear. Google doesn’t have a problem with arbitrage itself. Google hates the horrible, nonsensical Adsense scrub sites that clog the internet with gibberish and deliver nothing of value to the users. And who can argue? When was the last time you searched for something important, only to find several sites full of gibberish and ads?

Give the user content
whether a few short paragraphs or something longer, but whichever way you choose to go, keep it relevant. If your page has relevant content, you will probably never hear a peep out of Google.

Use quality Keywords
The next important point is that you find keywords to focus your content around such that your ads deliver the highest per-click payout possible. If you are paying 10 cents per click to bring a user to your site, and the most you get if they click on an ad is 3 cents, you can’t hope to profit. The best you can hope for is that maybe they click two ads before they go and you only lose 4 cents. What’s the point?

There are many excellent tools to assist you in finding high-priced keywords. Google’s keyword analyzer itself is one of the better ones. Setting up an ad campaign and testing keywords through the campaign-creation is another sneaky but useful trick. Aim for keywords that pay at least $4 or $5. Make sure your content page title contains that keyword, and maybe drop that exact keyword once or twice more, while using several related keywords only once each. Google has very clever algorithms, and it’s tough to get this exactly right, but it can be done! Do not oversaturate your page with that one keyword or keyword phrase. Google will ignore you!

Cheap Long-tail Keywords
Now once you’ve picked your high-price keyword(s) to base your page(s) around, use the same analytical tactics to locate as many keywords and long-tail keywords as possible that cost next to nothing. While less searched than the expensive ones, you can combine a large number of cheaper keywords and come out with plenty of traffic coming into your page. You pay the cheap keyword price for these people, and get paid the high-keyword price when they click on your ads. That’s the name of the arbitrage game.

Hopefully you have a few more ideas about getting some arbitrage campaigns started. Best of luck!

Three Best Adwords Tips

As the most popular PPC engine available, Adwords is a must when using PPC to pull traffic to your sites. However, as the most popular PPC engine, keywords are often expensive, and a short-run ad campaign can cost an arm and a leg. There are ways to grab more traffic while spending less using Adwords. Let’s look at three tips for doing so.

Tip One: Use Hyper-Targeted Keywords.
Hyper-Targeted keywords are the actual keywords that sell – the ones that indicate your surfer is sitting there, credit card in hand, ready to make the purchase. In general, I use the following three phrases when selling “product”:

Buy Product
Purchase Product
Order Product

And of course, use each of them with all of Google’s features – in quotations and in brackets, for each type of matching. So for instance, instead of just Buy Product, you would use: Buy Product, “Buy Product”, and [Buy Product]. Depending on how hot an item you have chosen, these three primary power words – Buy, Purchase, and Order – can bring you more targeted traffic than you know what to do with, and these are people who are ready to purchase right now!

Tip Two: Use Site-Targeting.
Another feature of Adwords that most users completely ignore is the site-targeting option. Campaigns can be keyword-targeted or site-targeted. The beauty of site targeting is that you can target sites at the top of the organic Google searches. This works better in some cases than others, obviously, but when it works, you end up paying a fraction of the cost for clicks that you would for keyword-targeted campaigns.

For best results, choose a few top keyword phrases and enter them into Google. Look at the first 5 results for each one (or more if you like) and notice whether or not those sites use Adsense. Also notice the Adsense placement – is it near the top of the screen? The top left position is best, but as long as the ads are visible without scrolling the page, that site is a great candidate. When you paste that site’s root into Adwords, it may or may not be approved. If it is an approved site-targeted ads site, you’re in business. Now edit the campaign and change the site’s root out with the direct link you got from your Google search – now only that page will show your ad! Your CPM will be much lower than if the entire site was showing your ads, and you know your traffic is coming from people who searched for the term you entered.

Tip Three: Show the item’s price in your ad.
This one may sound simple, but it can really go a long way towards weeding out expensive clicks that had no intention of converting. In my experience, showing the item’s price in the ad has weeded out approximately 80% of non-buyer clicks. It reduces the total number of clicks, of course, but those clicks are higher quality traffic. This is especially effective if your price is lower than most other prices on the same product elsewhere.

These three little tips will give you an advantage in the Adwords game. Best of luck!

3 PPC Tips You need to do.

PPC, or pay-per-click ads, have the potential to reach an astounding audience on the internet. Used correctly, PPC can drive loads of targeted buying traffic to your website. PPC also doesn’t have to be expensive. Let’s go over three pointers for getting the most PPC power out of your money.

Tip 1: Use Long-Tail Keywords
Long-Tail Keywords are generally meant as keywords using four or more words. Short keywords, such as “buy Viagra”, are over-bid, and will cost you several dollars per click. Using keyword tools, you may find that there are several related long-tail keywords that get decent volumes of search traffic. Perhaps “buy Viagra online pharmacy” or “buy some Viagra online now”, for instance. These long-tail keywords will cost you far less, and while they receive fewer searches, you will ultimately receive many more clicks at a lower price.

Tip 2: Monitor Campaigns Closely and Use Split-Testing
Many campaigns that do not profit could be tweaked a bit to become profitable. In many cases, certain keywords are underperforming, but you don’t know it until you really delve in. Split test your campaigns, and make sure to weed out keywords that receive large numbers of impressions but a small number of clicks. These are throwing off your CTR, or Click Through Rate, which causes your ads to place lower and cost more.

Also, by split-testing, be sure to weed out keywords that receive lots of clicks but few conversions. If the conversions don’t cover the cost of the clicks, then that keyword is unprofitable. Axe it!

Tip 3: PPC Shines for List Building
The one area where PPC really shines is in building lists. Acquire (or create) a product such as a 10-page report or a 5-part email series that you can offer in exchange for an opt-in. Create a page with the opt-in form, and set up an auto responder to send your opt-ins the promised product. Then create a PPC campaign, be as wild with the keywords as you want, and set a limit on how much you are willing to spend before pausing the campaign.

Driving large amounts of traffic onto the page short-term will allow you to quickly build a strong list for promotion of related products. Your list will be your best friend, so build wisely! If you create a product, allow users the option of opting in on the download page. A list of people who have already purchased something is worth ten times as much as a much larger list of people who may or may not ever buy anything. Think of your larger list as silver, and your buyer’s list as gold.

Using these tips, you now have a competitive edge over your competition. Best of luck in your online marketing.

How to Get Free Traffic - Article Marketing Miracles

Internet Marketing offers limitless opportunities for income creation by accessing the power of the World Wide Web. With access to the online masses, you have the potential to reach an unimaginably immense audience with your products, marketing and promotions.

Article marketing – a FREE way to reach thousands of people very quickly, bringing long-term traffic to your website on a daily basis.

So what is article marketing?
Put simply, article marketing is the writing of free articles that point back to your website or product. These articles are submitted to article directories across the internet, and from there they can be used by other people for content on their websites, with the condition that your author bio box remains in tact. This is the true beauty of article marketing – a few minutes of your time can yield months of results!

How to start Article Marketing?
An article is approximately one page of text, using Microsoft Word. Articles generally contain between 400 and 700 words, and are informative and helpful to the target audience. You can find word count programs on the internet. My favorite is: http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/script2/countwords.shtml - you paste your article into the box, click “Calculate Words”, and it immediately tells you how many words are in your article. You can even take the code from this site and put it onto your own website. It’s completely free.

What Topics to write on.
When writing articles, stick to topics you know well. Or find an article similar to the one you want to write, read it a couple of times, and then rewrite it entirely using your own words. You can also get some ideas from several articles, and then combine them into a totally new article. You can even purchase PLR (private label rights) articles and use them on your site as-is, or alter them and submit them to article sites (be careful with this one – you must change them enough to be unrecognizable from the original, or you will be flagged for duplicate content).
To learn how to do get good quality material get a copy of "Article Writing Secrets"
How to get your articles circulating on the "Web"
These are the most important sites available: http://ezinearticles.com, http://goarticles.com, and http://articledashboard.com. These three, in my experience, have the most users and the most clout with Google. They are all free to register with and submit articles to. Just be sure to follow their rules (especially EzineArticles), to keep from having your account suspended or your articles rejected.

Finally
Make sure you create a bio box that will draw readers to your site. Your author bio should give a little info about you and give the reader incentive to come to your site. This is where the traffic comes from, and the amount of traffic good articles can generate will blow you away! Write useful articles, and you will find ezines and websites beginning to publish your articles, bringing in more traffic from their readers/visitors.

So what are you waiting for? Go write your first article, and get that traffic flowing! If you woould like to find more great ideas on article marketing then get a copy of "Article Writing Secrets"
