Really Cool (FREE) "Traffic Getting" Technique I Found...

Just a quick, but important, post about this traffic getting video George Brown sent me earlier...

First of all... traffic getting? What do I mean by that?

Well, in George's own words: "if you watch the video and implement the technique, it will basically get you a boatload of traffic to your website".

Simple enough.

Watch the video, do it and get some extra free targeted traffic to your site, no matter what niche it's in.

It works too. George (the techniques "creator") is using it to drive almost 20,000 free visitors to his sites every month. Twenty THOUSAND! That's nothing to sneeze at.

This is a technique I'll be using personally on this and all of my sites. It really is one of the coolest techniques for getting some extra traffic I've seen in a long time.

Here's the link if you want to check it out: FREE traffic getting technique video

(you do have to opt in to get in but that's all, it's completely free).

The video gets my highest recommendation; check it out.

Until next time,

Ann

Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate marketing is a way to create sales through online advertising of other people's products. Lots of businesses are looking to the internet as a great advertising medium as well as a platform for actually doing business. It serves them well to have an "affiliate" program rather than hiring a sales force and doing their own advertising.

Affiliates do the advertising, and generally are the best sales force because they're building a business for themselves without having to have a product of their own to market. It's a win-win situation for both parties. Amazon.com is a good example of a business that really understands the meaning of affiliate marketing.

It is not uncommon today for someone to look for a product online, and finding it, proceed to actually purchase it there. If they find it through one of your ads, the business makes a sale and you collect a commission. Using affiliate marketing strategies now that the world revolves around E-commerce can make you a good income.

Affiliate marketing is done in blogs as well as regular websites. Some of the more successful ones are "review" or comparison sites, which allow exposure and sales of a number of products.

Affiliate marketing is one of the best ways to do business. Most companies who use affiliates provide good advertising copy, have payment systems for sales (as well as for tracking and paying your commissions!) already set up. All you have to do is the advertising - and reap the rewards of the sales you generate!

I've been fairly busy for a few weeks - with life in general, working on Wealthy Affiliate lessons, investigating other sites, and last but not least - had cataract surgery on both eyes in late June! The latter made it a bit difficult early on to spend a lot of time at my computer. However, considering the state of Alberta Healthcare, I'm really grateful to have had access as quickly as I did.

Enuff on the personal front :)

When I first began investigating online opportunities I came across a site (Profit Plan) that advertises with the slogan "Make a Profit TODAY or Your Money Back TODAY" ...... that was intriguing enough to make me look further.

I was not dissappointed by what I found - the site's owner, Graham Hamer, has a reputation for not only living up to his promises, but delivering far more! After purchasing the ebook advertised, which includes the opportunity resale rights, one also receives followup emails with links to his sites and other opportunities to make money (without additional cost!!).

He also provides access to tons of internet marketing information - extremely valuable, again at no additional cost! The only other marketer I've seen who delivers extra value like that is Ewen Chia.

Of course, as is the case with any opportunity whether free or paid, there's one requirement to actually making a profit - you MUST PUT THE OPPORTUNITY BEFORE THE EYES OF BUYERS. There are many ways of doing that without "buying" advertising.

You can join traffic exchanges and safelists like Traffic Swarm, Easy Hits 4U, List Joe and ViralUrl as a free member and get your advertising by putting in some time reading others' ads or emails. Most also sell "paid" memberships quite reasonably and pay commissions on referrals as well. The links here will give me credits for advertising when anyone joins from them, btw (not hardly a hint of course!) There are also a number of free classified ad sites.

I guess this particular kind of opportunity appeals to me because of the honesty and simplicity; the lack of weird and wonderful "conditions" (I remember an old comedy routine that talked about an insurance policy which paid "only if you were bitten by a giraffe - and the giraffe had to be pregnant!"). Some opportunities have really, really convoluted payout schemes and requirements, and I just can't be bothered to wade through the hype. The independence factor and absense of the need to "sell" also appeals.

Anyhow, if you feel like it, have a look and see what you think.

Marketing like you've never seen it before
