Internet Marketing Time saving Tips

Tweet

One of the things I can't stress enough is how overwhelming internet marketing can be for anyone just getting started and even for those who might be more advanced than a newbie but not quite a marketing rockstar. Time is money and if your spending countless hours surfing on auto surfing sites, answering emails from the mailer sites etc. I must tell you are waisting your time. Think about it these people are there with same goal as you. Promoting their offers. So the likely of getting a sign up on those sites is next to zero. You can't sell ice to Escimo's. The only benefit you will get from such sites is being able to see what's hot and whats moving on the internet, and that is it. So, time saving tip number one is dont spend more than 20 minutes every other day surfing for hits and pennies on surfing sites. Mailers are also a big trap-off, the one thing you will defenitely get from them is an inbox full offers and biz opp pitches. You could spend an avarage of one hour or two scanning tons of e-mails just to earn points. Not to mention you are likely not going to be able to read or scan a third of them. Again, waisting your valuable time, your most priceless asset. Should you join these mailers and surfing sites? Yes, but remember you will get the same results wether you spend a thousand hours on them, or you spend five minutes a day on anyone of them . Their too much like a lottery; all you need is dollar and a dream. So why spend hundreds of hours on these sites, when the chances of getting a sign up from them are like the chances of winning the lotto, 17,000 to one, sucky odds. Dont you think? This is time you could better spend using the more tried and effective ways of generating the traffic vital to your offers which is by far less time and more productive. Which brings us to time saving tip number two. You might be asking yourself now, what are those tried and effective ways of generating traffic? Article writing, Blogging, linking your articles and blog posts on social sites like Face Book and Twitter and at least 15 of the most popular bookmarking sites will bring you to the frontlines in a relatively short time. Submitting your Blogs and Articles, to sites like Sqidoo,Tumblr and Daily Motion, will bring you a considerable amount of exposure if you follow their rules and take advatage of their tutorials. ( Stop thinking and beleiving that internet marketing success will come over night.) Define your goals. Signing up for the many sites where you can gain exposure is of paramount impotance to your success as an iternet marketer. Navigate the sites I just mentioned so you can get a feel for the language and subjects as well great tips for realising your goal as internet marketing rock star. Don't beleive the hype there is no one single authorty on the subject of internet marketing, so don't try to be one. Just develope your creative abilities and become a worth reading article and blog writer, relevant to your niche. Read the experts blogs and articles first so you can get a better sense of how to write Blogs and Articles. Why is writing articles and Blogs so important? Because search engines crawl articles and blogs when quieried on any particular search term, the more you write the more likely that you will be indexed by the search engines. Explore and research your topic or niche before you write a lick. Fresh and infomative content rule the internet. Content rich articles and blogs equal traffic. High volume traffic equal sales. There you have it, you can save yourself a lot of time and money, while getting targetted leads to your offer, thus saving time and money. Last but perhaps the most important thing you need to do is link all your blog posts and articles. It is the begining of viral exposure. Let's take a look at the importance of signing up for all the sites I have suggested. The first is that the sites I suggested are Pr 1 through Pr 7. (The only sites worth spending your precious time on, are crawled most often by search engines.) Page rank 1 through 7 is where the internet is really churning activity and buzzing with the new. They are full of content rich articles and blogs and even videos. Pr1 to Pr 7 sites are sites with incredible traffic, most of which are free and put you in front of worthy audiences, as they are visited by saavy consumers and populated by geniune internet marketing who's who types. You get the oportunity to rub shoulders with like minded people and learn from them. Linking and posting links to your activites on these sites to Face Book, Twitter and countless other sites will funnel lots of visits and targetted readers to your blogs, while learning from the masters of the craft. Once again saving you time and money. Now, moving right along on the subject of saving time, while marketing on the inernet. I 'am convinced that not giving mention to other forms of internet marketing would be a grave dis-favor to those of you who are not able to spend the required time to learn ropes, I have toched on in the previous parragraphs. So breifly I will give you some tips on how to choose and participate in other internet marketing and making money from home opportunities available on the internet and for the sake of diferentiating the two I will divide the term internet marketing in to two parts. One internet marketing although related to making money online or as it is best known-working from home, are two different things. Although they are intrinsically related. For those not willing or able to engage in internet marketing in it's most pure sense, there is an alternative, which is "making money from home." The advantages of "making money from home" are: not having to write articles or blogs, thus a shorter learning curve, being able to sign-up for various money making online programs, and having to spend less time online doing internet marketing which is much more envolved and requires a greater amount of time. There are numerous guides and free ebooks worthy of reading and are filled with tips and tricks that will help you make money like the fast and the furious made headlnes. Just to mention a few here are somethings you can do to work from home and earn enough money to fire your boss which require little if any investment of time or money. Selling on Ebay, Craigslist, Overstock, Amazon. This will require comparatively less time than internet marketing. You just have to get familiar with rules and guidelines of these online market places. They also provide great materials with which you can promote your items and give you up to the minute data on what is selling the most on thier market place. Getting hot selling items to sell on any of these sites is not so hard either. Just enter a few search terms like "10 best dropshippers" or " wholesale suppliers," these are two good search terms for getting a good supplier. However, please be aware not all suppliers are created equal, and very little have your best intrest at heart. So here is a rule of thumb do not subcribe to any drop shipper that requires a monthly payment for their services. You are out to make money not spend money. Be sure you enroll with a supplier that sells the items that are selling the most in any site you choose as your market place. Having done your home work will save you time money and heart ache. Take little steps and don't go trying to sell cars and boats. Stick to everyday stuff that is popular like cellphone accesories, make-up, home and garden stuff, stuff that appeals to women and men a like. You could be up and runing in the blink of an eye for little if any cost to you. Don't run after every shiny object and stick to one project at a time. You can write mini pitches about what your are selling and Pin them on Pintrest post them on Po.st it, one rule do not promote them as being the seller but rather an admirer of the item talk about what makes them such a great item to have, and link them to your market place with the link to your listing. Mention them on forums as a question rather than an offering. Comment on other forum members posts some piosts allow you to insert a link in your comments just make sure it's relevant to the discusion. Join forums that are related to your niche, when possible link your listings to your comments as well. In sumarry learn the basics first: article writing, blogging, social media marketing (which is linking your articles and blogs to FaceBook, Twitter, and other Social sites and bookmarking sites as well.) Signup to all the high PR social sites you can. If you can't write or don't want to, stick to selling stuff on the major online market places. Be patient and diligent and dedicate time at least twice a week to reading articles and Blogs from as many places your time allows especially those sites relevant to your niche. Stick to one thing at a time, and give it an honest try, dont go chasing after every shiny object. Stay far from mailers, surfing sites and the like. Research all offers and sites before you buy another useless program piece of software that promises to make you rich overnight.
