The secret to success in internet marketing


I’ know everyone has heard of article marketing, and I’m sure that most are dismissing it as part of your marketing strategy. Do not under estimate the power of the “ARTICLE”. Just recently I edited one of my articles in the ezine article directory and changed a few keywords and after editing, it has to be resubmitted.

Today I logged into my ezine account and seen that the article was live again, so I googled the article title and to my amazement it was republished on two other sites after only being live for 3 hours. That’s two backlinks already with out doing anything else and they are natural backlinks not forced.

After submitting your article, go to http://www.freetrafficsystem.com/ to build more backlinks to your article. The freetrafficsystem has step by step video’s that show you how to spin your article and then submit it to 50 blogs for backlinks. It is very important to spin your article so that you don’t have duplicate content on all of these blogs.

Now for the secret to success in internet marketing

The secret is not to quit to soon, don’t be a quitter. Internet marketing is like any other business in the sense that it takes time to build your business. It is not a get rich quick scheme, because rich quick schemes simply don’t exist.

You must have your own website, because you cannot get indexted in search engines with an affiliate link. There are plenty of places you can build a website for free, kompozer is just one of the many and I like it, although I prefer sending visitors to my blog.

Self branding is the one single most important part of  achieving success on the internet. You need to brand yourself as an authority figure and provide value to your list. That’s why it is important to have your picture out on the internet everywhere that you can. On facebook,squidoo,diggs,twitter and so on, not an avatar but a picture.

People want to see a face behind the name and the more sites that your picture is on, people come to know you and you start to build a relationship and this falls under self branding

You also need to start building a list to build relationships with others, people will not buy from you if they don’t know who you are, so you offer them what they are in need of like a free ebook, free training coarse or low cost marketing tools. Now you will start to build some trust from your list and that’s where backend sales come in “YOUR PRIMARY BUSINESS”.

Going back to self branding, have you ever heard the name  “Norbert Orlewicz”, I’m sure you have seen him all over the net, Norbert has struck gold because he is branded. Google the name  Norbert Orlewicz, there are 121,000 results that come back. Some of these ads are his but most are from others from articles written about him or reviews about him, and these are thousands of backlinks that he has created for himself.

Now in no way am I promoting Norbert, I’m just using him as an example, there are thousands of Norbert’s out there, and joining his program will not bring you success. Google Tissa’s name and you will see that Tissa has him beat by over 100,000  with a total of 275,000. So no matter what program you join, it will not mean a thing if you don’t stick around long enough to learn how to build your business.

So for all of those who are feeling like they are doing something wrong, it’s not your fault, you just need to learn all that you can to become successful. These are free methods, I haven’t even covered pay-per-click.


Hope this brings a little light to the end of the tunnel.

PS. Don’t just start writing articles not knowing what you are doing, keywords play an important role in article marketing, so do some research and learn from WA about keyword research.

Re: The secret to success in internet marketing

That was an exellent post Joseph and I graded it accordingly! Yes, this is by no means a "quick fix" and verily we have to really work hard at this and see the end result NOW!! Mindset is what it is all about. This is "my future" and if I expect what I want to see materialize then I must and so must everyone, truly be committed to their future vision smile
It is a road and a path that we have chosen among, yes, all the Norberts out there, as Tissa instills his dream of success in us and helps us make this dream come to fruition!! I am so happy I have to work at this, for easy fixes have never given me any satisfaction, yet now, whenever I see myself growing it makes me so happy and is very gratifying. Small steps, yet safe and sure, once you learn are the keys to seeing this through! Luck has nothing to do with it, actions are what count. Quitters should not even try to undertake something like nurturing a business which will bing you what you aspired for and to smile
Joseph, to quote us in past posts, my dear friend: If there was a Tissaland and Acme were the capital city, I would pack up, lock stock and barrel and head home smile

Thanks for being the man you are!
Rock On, Joseph wink

I agree Nadine,

When one works hard to accomplish their goals it gives a feeling of gratification. You feel good knowing that a lot of hard work went into bringing your business to the next level.

Re: The secret to success in internet marketing

Hey Joseph,

Nice post!!!  I agree that WordPress is the very best way to build a site and I've been having a lot of success with the Free Traffic System.

Here are a couple of quotes you might find handy to support your point "on not quitting."

"Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up."
                                                                                                                                Thomas A. Edison

"Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time. "
                                                                                                                                 Thomas A. Edison

All the Best,

Rick

Re: The secret to success in internet marketing

Joseph, you got it man!

This is an excellent post, and well detailed point by point. It is educational and at the same time motivational. Branding is so important in this business, because people are looking for leaders, for people they can learn from things they can use.

You must have a vision and a goal. If you you don't have a goal and don't know where you going, how are you going to get anywhere?

I can say it for a fact, that this forum is, in my opinion the best there is, with so many wonderful and talented people.

Ditto's to all of you, and Ditto to Tissa for making this forum by offering to become Super Sponsors, that is in most part one reason why this Forum is so successful! That's what I call a brilliant idea!

So, once again, thank you for the great post, and keep up the good work my Friend,

Mike

Re: The secret to success in internet marketing

You are so welcome mike,

I just want to help our new members to hold their head up high and give their business 100% hard work in not only advertising but to learn every promotional angle that they can apply to their business.

Thanks for the info joseph and mega thanks for that free backlinks url too big_smile

As for the articles, I know of a GDI affiliate named Omar Negron who's produced hundreds of quality articles to drive traffic to his site and he's put together an excellent youtube video to teach us affiliates the true secrets and techniques of article marketing.

If anyone in here is new to article marketing, I recommend you watch his 9 minute video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ft7IqNr8fC8

Also as regards to spinning your articles to create unique content, I've found a tool called jet spinner which is also free to use big_smile

http://www.jetspinner.com - "Not an affiliate link"

Hope this provides everyone with added value?

Re: The secret to success in internet marketing

Thanks Neil,

That was an exellent video and puts a question mark hovering in my head about the myth on duplicate content. I'm sure you have read some of Brett's posts about duplicate content being a myth. and when he brings that up others rush to debate him on the subject.

PS. Just a shoutout to brett, the video in Neils post is just more comformation under your belt.

Re: The secret to success in internet marketing

Hello everyone

I just wanted to say that this is such a excellent resource for me being a newbie.  I just recently started looking online for income opportunities about 3 months ago after i got laid off from my job.  I've been doing alot of research and i've found many ways to make money online.  But i am truely happy that i've found this program.  I love that i have a group of people that i can talk with to make me better in this business.  Internet Marketing in my future and i am determine to be successful.    Joseph, you are so right about not quitting and trust me in the past few weeks that has crossed my mind but i need to do this for my family.  I still working on getting income from online.  I have tried ppc with google and i was able to get 2 items sold but i spend more money than i got back.  I am not ruling ppc out because i know i have alot more to learn.  I am now working on Article Marketing eventhough writing has always been a challenge for me i am determine to get it right.
But anyway i am glad i found this program and i am going to be asking alot of question in these forums.

Re: The secret to success in internet marketing

For me, it is trying to figure out where to post & how to post. I like promoting other people's sites because there is little to no out of pocket expense. However, I am finding out you also need to have a mailing list. I get emails daily from the different sites I am registered on. I know if I don't quit & continue to learn, I will be successful.

Hi gunner,

You don't submit your articles directly to the search engines such as google, yahoo or msn. When you submit an article to an article directory such as ezinearticles or goarticles, your article gets picked up and placed on the first page of google almost immediately and then it is your job to keep it there by creating backlinks to your article.

just read your blog you are starting out well .there is so much to learn about marketing and getting traffic which you will need. i started out with one of my website at first it was very hard to get the important sales but after spend a lot of time and money i started earning. what i did was write articles which slowly got traffic coming in then i stumbled upon tissa search engine and the people on here who offer good advice i am still learning but after 6 weeks of not getting any real traffic i am getting quality traffic through ppc its a pain in the bum but when you are ready to start i would start with some ppc. i found msn easyier then google .have you signed up for wealthy affiliates yet the information there and the learning is priceless you will be able to put what you learn there into work on your own sites.hope the future brings you all the good things i will keep my eye out for your post and i will look on twitter for you.

15.Add a link to your site in the signature of any forums you post on.

16.Tell your friends about your site. It's free advertising init.

17.Speel cheek your stie. Nothing appears more amateur than a site with typos or spelling mistakes.

18.Test your site and make sure it appears correctly in all major browsers.

19.Buy/or I should say Rent enough & unlimited domain hosting. (like Hostgator) No one likes a slow site.

20.Don't worry about PageRank - it will raise by it self,but think how to flood traffic to your site

28 Get a custom t-shirt made with your website url on it, and wear it often. big_smile

29 comment on flicker photo

30 Focus with your best choise affiliate programme! In my case AcmePeopleSearch, and don't jump to another program /sign up here and there!!  unless you already have made good profit, Remember Focus, focus, focus

30 On your Contact Page ask people if they mind receiving your newsletter. ~try to make it double opt in, you can give free ebook in return

31 Send out a newsletter! 
32 Go to a free seminar for Website owners. You might learn something.

33 Find quality and relevant blogs and leave a comment (with a link back to your site of course).

34 Don't pay people to submit your site to search engines. It's a waste of money.

35 YouTube and Google Video are excellent portals on which to launch a viral campaign.

36 Giving away an eBook is an excellent way to generate word-of-mouth about your site.

37 Sponsor a Wordpress theme or a phpListDirectory template.

37 If you sell products that are advertised on television by the manufacturer, add "As Seen on TV" to your site!

38 Avoid proprietry technologies like Java and Active X.

39 Put downloadable content on your site, but make sure it's not manufacturer specific - so mp3 rather than wma.

40 Learn about CSS. It's the new HTML.

41 Contribute to related subject areas on Wikipedia.
Ask bloggers and other Web site owners to review your site and/or products.

42 Have user friendly page names - most tools comes with some way to avoid

43 If you must have a Flash homepage, make sure you have a "Skip Intro" link.

44 Try to attend Tissa Webinar, you can learn lot's of things and also you can ask question to Tissa directly
45 Become a leading authority on your chosen subject.

46.Don't buy traffic or leads ,unless you know if the customer had good result & positive review

Hope This Helps,
Octa
