Booster "Fuel"
It's now time to look at a long term and ongoing strategy for building your website presense and gradually building the number of visitors that visit your website.
Article Marketing
One of the best and most affordable ways to get traffic to your sites and to make sales is through Article Marketing. This is a very effective way to make a name for yourself online.....the more familiar your name becomes the more sales you will make. Recognition builds trust!
Like every strategy that I recommend this needs persistence, ie. don't be expecting overnight riches from doing this. This WORKS.....Just do a search for my name "Mal Keenan" on Google, at the time of writing there are 28,100 listings. You will see from the top results that the majority of these listings come from articles I have written. That's 28,100 pages with my name and affiliate links on them. 28,100 opportunities to sell MY stuff and make a commission. ARE YOU GETTING THE POINT HERE? Get some articles out there! Keep at it!
I now have 1000's of references for my name in Google and my articles and links listed on 1000s of websites solely through submitting weekly articles. The great thing is that this number grows all on it's own once the viral train starts.
If you cant write articles then have a look at this service
Just Articles. You can shop around if you like but you WILL NOT find a better place to get great quality articles at such an affordable price. I suggest you buy articles at around 600 words in length.
At the above prices there is absolutely NO excuse for NOT getting your articles out there with YOUR link at the bottom sending visitors to YOUR site.
Now go here to get software to submit them:

(This is software will save you countless hours and do a much better job than submitting manually.)
If you prefer then do it manually. Here is a list of top article databases:

The basic idea is to write, or have written, an article related to home business and related themes, then send it to the article directories with a resource box at the bottom with a link to your business opportunity.
Here is an example of one of my resource boxes:
=================
Mal Keenan is editor and publisher of Home Business Tips
Newsletter: http://www.home-business-tips-newsletter.com/
For A Home Business You Can Believe In
PLUS All The Info To Make It Succeed Don't miss: http://www.malkeenan.com/
=================
You can look at my article database to see how people do this and to get some ideas on articles:
http://www.internethomebusinessarticles.com/
You can of course put any links that you like in your resource box. Just one or two. Also it is better to have your own site rather than use an affiliate link. You can get your own site with hosting here:
Website with Hosting
I have been using Article Marketing ONLY for a recent home business that I have become involved with and have been getting daily leads. I have been submitting one article per week. Keep at this consistently and I promise you will make sales.
This strategy can be applied to any business and ALL the top marketers are using it. Believe me it works!
Marketing with Blogs
If you are serious about Internet Marketing then it is a good idea to become involved in "blogging". Do you know what a blog is? If not then you haven't been online very long:-).
Every online marketer that has been around for any length of time knows what Blogs are and is confident in the powerful effect they have on promoting their products and services.
I own a few blogs and have devoted a whole section of one of them to the Basics of Blogging. Go there now and read up on them then come back to us:
The Basics of Blogging
You can set up a Blog for free and I have set up step by step instructions for doing so. You can get the PDF report outlining where to get one and how to set it up here: Blog Set Up Instructions
Now that you have a blog and you have learnt what they are about then you need to make frequent posts to your blog. This marketing strategy will not work unless you post to your blog frequently. I try to post every day or two. Don't complicate it......share your own experiences.....tell your visitors what you are up to in your own home business efforts. Be honest!
I also review affiliate programs and internet marketing services inserting my own affiliate link. Recommending a service is a great way to build up your income. If your subscribers or readers have come to trust YOU then they will also trust your recommendations.
Brand New affiliate programs or services have less competitive search terms so use the Affiliate Program title in the title of your blog post. Also use the names of the product owner, which DO get searches every month but are not difficult to get high rankings in Google and Yahoo.
I have noticed that once your blog has been established then you will start to see your posts achieving high search engine rankings, especially for less competitive terms.
A little trick I use when making a post is to check out the keywords for the topic I am writing about. For instance recently I was writing a post about the cost of advertising so I popped the search term into Overture Search Tool and looked for a term that I could use to title the post. You are advised to choose keywords with only a few hundred searches per month. I found the term "low cost advertising" and named the post accordingly using this keyword phrase. Then I repeated the search term a few times throughout the post.
At the time of writing I am number one on MSN for this search term.
Now you are not going to get loads of visitors for each of these phrases but they soon add up. Remember to choose less competitive search terms. You will not get good ranking with the more popular keyword phrases.
There are loads of ways that you can optimise your blog to get higher search engine rankings, far beyond the scope of this work. Check out David Pankhurst's blogging report for more info:
Top 10 Tricks for Wordpress.
(Wordpress is another free blogging software application and can be downloaded here).
There are always two choices. Two paths to take. One is
easy. An its only reward is that it's easy.
