Internet marketing tips and strategies for MLM...


If you wanted to simplify 'what' the Internet is, you could make a strong case for the argument:
The internet is a place to search for things
Listen closely to what folks say when they're talking about the web:
  • "I'll check MapQuest to find directions..."
  • "Yes, I compared 4 like items and found the best buy online at..."
  • "Let me pull-up the TV guide, I think it's on tonight..."
  • "Welcome onboard, how'd you hear about us? Online?"

Everybody's looking, finding, or searching for something. Everybody. So, it's your business to help them find you. It's a little work, but it's not nearly as hard as you might expect. Give yourself about one hour to explore in detail each strategy listed below. After you are exposed to the basics, you might wish to pace your efforts so that once week you tackle one approach until you have each one mastered.


STRATEGY #1

There's no getting around it, you've gotta have your own blog. A blog is nothing more than a platform facilitating you to rattle on about what you might be taking part in... maybe matters related to your business, your industry, or the benefits and recommendations surrounding your various products. Promote your business locally by focusing on how this all relates to Oklahoma or the benefits people from Oklahoma might experience.

The reason a blog is a must for your web campaign strategy is because it gives you an instant voice on the internet to provide news and information about the things you are doing. Your blog or weblog should link to your other web pages and sites. Blogs are "search engine" friendly and much more likely to get listed in Google, MSN search, Yahoo etc than your website.

Invest a little quality time setting up a 'profile page' on your blog (or connected to your blog) that tells visitors a little about you and your website. Also link to this profile page from your various other web site pages.

Post short but frequent messages every week (more often if possible). Keep it lively, interesting, and topical but above all don't hype and don't publish sales pitches.

Need advice? Here are links to a few well known blogs that offer top notch services. Some are hosted others you can put on your own server.

STRATEGY #2

Invest a little time studying about "folksonomy" or "tags" and how they can benefit your online marketing efforts. A good place to visit is Technorati http://www.technorati.com/help/tags.html

Once you understand the basics of how tags interact with your site, start using them on your blog and in comments you post to other blogs. Open a no cost photo sharing account at Flickr http://flickr.com/ to upload photos with descriptive titles and stories related to your business, MLM, or your products and services. Don't forget your tags!

Open a FURL http://furl.net/ account to save and share bookmarks or favorites linked to all your important web pages. Again, add well worded descriptions and associate proper tags to every bookmarked page.

Never stop linking... return to your other site pages, your blog, and your profile page and add links to your Flickr and FURL pages.



STRATEGY #3

Start an opt-in e-mail list and/or give visitors the opportunity to subscribe to your RSS or XML feed.

Most web site owners have learned few people purchase anything on that first visit. How often has anyone ordered or even contacted you from your site? It takes a bit more "relationship building" to get past first base, so to speak.

Here's what researchers have learned about who's most likely to buy products or services on the Internet:
  • 91% of opt-in subscribers are more likely to buy... (Source: eMarketer Inc)
  • 94% of US adults who have subscribed to a permission based (opt-in) email have made a purchase from the retailer... (Source: eMarketer Inc)
  • 40% of adults with net access, subscribe to or have received opt-in e-mail in the past three months... (Source: Bigfoot Interactive)

What's the bottom line here? No matter how much traffic you manage to get to your web pages or blog, if you do not provide visitors a compelling reason to sign-up for a newsletter, you will likely diminish your opportunity to make sales by over 90%. Add a subscription box to every page that you plan to direct visitors to. Do not list any web page on a search engine, business card, or other promotion if that page does not have a way for visitors to join your list.

Internet marketing tips Bonus Idea: Many site owners now offer XML or RSS feeds as an alternative to newsletter subscriptions (not necessarily a replacement). Explore options to offer XML or RSS feeds to your website visitors. Email as a communication vehicle has lost some of its penetration and profitability in recent years. Users are confused about what is quality content in their email inbox and what is SPAM and unsolicited advertisements. XML or RSS feeds are not nearly as complex as they sound and are worth looking into.


STRATEGY #4

A search engine marketing campaign will drive more website traffic at a lower cost than any other form of website marketing. Without question. Yet the overwhelming majority of website owners ignore this path to a continuous flow of highly targeted visitors.

Consider these statistics.

A Georgia Tech survey revealed that over 80% of its respondents discovered web sites through search engines and were searching with intent to buy something.

eMarketer statistics showed that last year, search engine marketing (SEM) skyrocketed. Growing over 120% -- just in the US. Paid search advertising accounts for about 40% of total internet ad spending.

All these millions are being spent by entrepreneurial businesses, corporate businesses and people just like you. It's called PAY-PER-CLICK ( PPC or COST-PER-CLICK ) and it allows you complete control over your search engine listings. No more optimizing, waiting and praying only to end up as listing number 5009 on page 757 under the keyword phrase "find me if you can" because that's where some search engine employee (or worse yet, some robot) thought your search engine listing belonged.

Pay Per Click places you behind the mix-master where you can whip-up well worded PPC ads (called listings) with spiffy headlines (called titles), interesting descriptions (10 to 20 words or so) and bake up perfect matches between keywords and keyword phrases. YOU chose and the destination or landing pages you want to link search customers to.

With pay-per-click, site owners decide how high in the rankings (or search results page) they want to appear by bidding penny by penny for the top spots. Keywords popular among web site owners cost more while other more diligent site owners find less expensive keyword niches that may bring equally good results for much lower per-click bid rates.

The unique advantage in PPC advertising is that you can bid on dozens or hundreds of keywords connected to your products, services, business or affiliate offer while never spending a penny until someone CLICKS your listing. Add to this the fact that some keyword listings in some PPCs can start as low as 1 cent a click.

There are many lists and eBooks with recommendations about setting up a PPC marketing campaign. Many charge you upwards of $100 (be careful), but the best we've found is free and is available to you by joining this internet marketing newsletter.

Pay-Per-Click Search Engine and Marketing Ideas


Here are a few expert search engine suggestions and keyword brain storming ideas to get you thinking:

  1. When thinking up keywords, use examples of specific things your product is used for: 'clean floors', clean countertops', 'wash floors', 'mop floors', 'polish stove top', 'remove grime', 'shine appliances', 'disinfect bacteria', 'hide furniture flaws' etc.
  2. Explore variations: 'soy milk', 'soymilk', 'soy-milk'
  3. Add plurals: 'protein bar' and 'protein bars'
  4. Use abbreviations and acronyms
  5. Use US and UK spellings
  6. Keyword phrases may be questions: 'how to repair bad credit', 'when should I diet', 'how do I lose weight', 'where are discount cosmetics', etc.



The Oklahoma Marketing Secret

The quickest way to success with any pay-per-click marketing campaign is preparation and consistency. Do your homework upfront to find less expensive keywords to bid on, compose a quality title and description for your search listing and stick with it for at least 7 months as you learn the rules. Set a monthly budget that you are comfortable with (perhaps $97 a month) and consider that your investment in the search engine school of hard knocks. After you graduate, you'll begin to see results. It's an education worth the time, money and effort.
