A Good Internet Marketing Strategy Is To Benefit By Helping Others

Posted by Online Mentor on June 17, 2008 in Network Marketing with View Comments


Many people don’t have the time or skills to write and create ebooks to give away to their web site visitors. Giving away ebooks from your web site can easily increase traffic and sales. Why not create promotional ebooks for other people to use so they can promote their web site.

First, you will need to write and create your own ebook to give away to your visitors. If you don’t want to write one, you could ask permission to use another writers’ articles or material. Be sure to include your text or banner at the beginning of the ebook.

Once your ebook is uploaded to your web site you can allow people to download it and give it away to their web site visitors. Your ad will continue to be spread all over the internet.

You can take this strategy one step further to make it even more powerful. Allow people to sign-up to get a version of the ebook with their own text or banner ad included in it. With their own ad included in the ebook, they’ll work harder to promote it. That means your ad will be seen by even more people. It’s now a win/win situation for you and your visitors!

How To Get Free Advertising By Giving Away

Posted by Online Mentor on June 11, 2008 in Internet Marketing with View Comments


Giving away content is a powerful way to get free advertising.

For example, give other people permission to use your article on their web site or in their e-zine. The resource box at th end of your article acts as an ad. In return, you get free advertising. It’s a win/win situation for both you and the people that need the extra content.

There are many forms of free content. It could be articles, reports, news stories, e-books, e-zines, e-mags, virtual e-mail courses, press releases, web books, etc.

You can take it a step further and make giving away content an even more powerful way to get free advertising. For example, give your free e-book to one person and allow them the rights to also give it away. Do you see what I’m leading up to? Let’s say only 20 people download your e-book. Those 20 people may give away your e-book to 20 more people. That’s a total of 400 people that have seen your ad in the e-book. And it just keeps multiplying!

If you keep producing free content over a long period of time it starts building up. Now, take all your free content and create an online directory. You can use your free content directory as a web site traffic generator. You can ask people to add the directory to their web site by linking to yours.

How To Get Traffic To Your Website

Posted by Online Mentor on May 31, 2008 in Traffic Generation with View Comments


When I first got started in Network marketing one of the things I knew I was not good at was selling. My sponsor told me that was not a problem as I would get a website and it would do most of the selling for me. At the time I thought that was a great idea. All I had to do was do a bit of advertising about my website then sit back and watch things happen.

The problem was I was not educated on how marketing on the internet works and nor was my sponsor. Nothing happened. No one except myself a few people I asked to, visited my website.

After a while I told my sponsor and she said it was my responsibility to find ways to get traffic to my website. The way to do this was word of mouth, my circle of influence as she said, or to advertise. Looking back, What poor advice this was. She did not understand the power of the internet and now the internet worked.

The word of mouth thing did not work very well nor did the advertising, so I was told to buy some internet leads. They were a great way to get customers, i was told. You have to pay about $10 – $20 per lead but you would get a new customer at least every five leads, mony well spent my sponsor told me. I practiced my scripts and called but after paying hundreds and hundreds of dollars I never got one person interested. The only people to prosper from those bought leads are the people that sell them.

Naturally I did not stay with that MLM Company they operate with an out of date system. Instead of giving up on Network Marketing what I did decide to do was to investigate what makes a website successful. By that I mean ones that have a high rate of traffic which equates into high sales.
