Internet marketers have certain routines when it comes to building a new venture from scratch. In fact any business person, reseacher, blogger or salesman etc. has such a systematic approach for starting up a project. For making money, you got to have an offer, and someone to offer him or her. That’s the least you need.
Here I’m not talking about having an offer, and assumably if you got something to offer whether it’s your own service, an automatic one, your digital product, or it’s by someone else, you need to get people to give them your offer. The more people you catch, the more you make sales, and depending on your conversion rate, the more effective your profits come in.
For that, in an online business you need traffic. Traffic comes in different ways, but the point is that, it would never come out of the blue! People are online, and to be more specific, there are about one billion and six hundred million users on internet. Not all of them are vacant enough to think of and guess your website address and try it out.
Users follow the links. Maybe your link on a search result for specific keywords, which is very targeted, or maybe links within other bloggers or webmasters’ posts. Again, there are hundreds of categories inwhich your links can get promoted.
No, we’re not to list them here. I give you the hints to find those effective ones by yourself. Effective ways to promote your links, are those that have enough publicity and traffic by themselves, and have visitors closely related to your website’s topic.
There’s a trade-off between the traffic volume and the relevancy. It wouldn’t be really effective if you choose those places which are completely related to your topic, yet have no traffic, and much worse, have not indexed by search engines. Also, chances are low for places with high traffic but not relevant.
The bests are those relevant places with enough DAILY traffic. Take a paper, write that on it, and dwell upon it until you get the why. Enough DAILY traffic is a mindful measure, because if it is not enough for a day, the weekly and monthly visitors led to your website would be lower than expected, and even hundred percent relevancy won’t make you a dime. Not all those visitors (which are not enough) would follow your link, and not all of those followers would make you money.
To put it into work, go to google, and search “how to” and “what is” like queries based on your website’s topic. For example, if it is about dogs food, search something like “what are best dog foods” or “how to make food for dogs”. In case if it is dogs food, you may search a little wider, like “dogs breeds”. You’ll find relevant, and mostly “with-enough-traffic” sites and blogs, that you can list them as your potential lead generators.
Get into web 2.0 sites like Facebook, Digg or Propeller, and join, and find groups or communities which are related any how to your topic. For sure, if you browse around, you’ll find members of those groups that have related websites, blogs etc. and you can ask them to help you promote your link and get paid if interested.
Still, those communities are very valuable, if you dedicate some quality time and contribution to them. That’s because by getting involved with those “related” communities, you get your username and consequently your profile promoted in those pages, and if your profile has your link on it, you’ll get some organic traffic through them. Also your rank in search engines will promote. Later, if it is possible you may refer some answer and resources to your website, and put your link into your signature of replies and posts.
