The Most Important Part of Internet Marketing

When you hear the term “internet marketing“, what do you think of?

For many, that term conjures thoughts of websites or spamming or search engines like Google, Yahoo and Bing. For others, it’s all about graphical design, writing fancy code or even affiliate programs. All of those answers correct, but the essence of internet marketing is much simpler.

At its core, internet marketing is about these things:

* Understanding the target market to which the product/service/cause you’re marketing will appeal
* Determining exactly how your target market interacts with the internet
* Positioning your content on the internet to attract the attention of your target market
* Collecting information about your target market (also known as “leads”) for follow-up and conversion into sales
* Design of offers or incentives to induce the desired actions from your leads


Since there is insufficient space in this article to give all of these topics adequate attention, let’s focus on just one specific topic with the realm of internet marketing: Email Marketing.

My best payoff has always come by focusing on permission-based email marketing. Permission-based email marketing refers to the practice of collecting information (including email addresses) from website visitors and communicating with them via e-mail with their direct consent. The “permission” aspect of permission-based email marketing is what separates legitimate email marketers from the spammers that everyone despises.

My love of email marketing is strong for one reason: It works very well. Email marketing has been much like a never-ending goldmine: It enables us to produce income on demand simply by sending a good offer to our list. When you have thousands of loyal subscribers – as we do – and you put a strong and compatible offer in front of them, income becomes nearly automatic.

However, the key to successful email marketing is the development of a legitimate trust relationship with your subscribers. If you opt to send your subscribers a request for purchases every single day, they will likely tire of your badgering and cease reading your emails altogether.

Alternatively, if you take the time to provide good content to your readers on a regular and frequent basis, you’ll discover that your readers take all of your emails far more seriously, and as a result your emails will be opened, read and acted upon with greater frequency. Essentially, email marketing is really an exercise in trust.

Even though there are more sides to internet marketing than just email marketing (permission based), email has been the foundation that our business sits on.

FTC Starts The Internet Marketing Crackdown

On December 1st, 2009 the new marketing on the internet regulations to into effect.  Yet another government interference in our daily lives.  Don’t get me wrong, I am glad that we can clean up some of the false marketing and lies out there, but it is just sad that the government is involved.  It isn’t the regulation that scares me, but once they get in it can be a slippery slope.

Since we have to work with the rules, let’s talk about some of the specifics and how they will effect your business.

The FTC has really stressed some the regulation on bloggers and what you say on your blog.  But where do you put your disclosures on your affiliations etc.
Read FTC Responds to Blogger Fears: “That $11,000 Fine Is Not True” .  The summary is
“Disclosures can be made in different ways, whether you make it outside of the text but in proximity to blog, or incorporate it into the blog discussion itself–those are the issues that bloggers will have discretion about.”

The FTC said that “We just want to bring some transparency to the process.”  Which is good in some ways as long as they don’t overstep their boundaries.

We will have to see how and when they start to crackdown on internet marketing blog, sales pages, squeeze pages, and more in the coming months.

Tips On Google AdWords

Before advertising with Google, it is important that you know the basics of Google AdWords. It is an undeniable fact that Google played a major role in the web today and Google AdWords has bring in billions of dollars to Google each year. But despite that, not all advertisers profit from Google AdWords.

To make sure that you are successful in your endeavour with Google AdWords, you do not have to bid on expensive keywords. All you need is some market research so that you will be able to identify the right niche keywords to match your website. Here are a few Google AdWords tips that you can put into use.

Read About Google AdWords Tips And More…

Always Include Keywords

Keywords are important, so make sure that it’s there in your ads. An average person glance through their Google search results very quickly, so you must place in your keywords strategically to grab their attention. Otherwise, your ad will be missed and lose a chance for sale. You must also make the ads appealing and compelling. It can be difficult to create compelling ads on such a short space. Make the most out of your ads by placing your keywords in them, or else your time and effort are wasted.

Tips on Bidding Strategy: High To Low

Lets take a look at how Google ranks your ads. Your ads are ranked according to your bid price and your click through number (Click Through Rate or CTR). CTR is the total clicks your ad receives over a period of time. Being new to AdWords, your quality score is definitely low, so to be on the first page is more difficult . Thus, you should start bidding a little higher to get visibility. Bidding higher gives you initial exposure your ads need. When your CTR is a higher, then you can slowly lower your bid price. Ultimately, the goal is then to keep your ad on the first page with the lowest bid price possible.

Low to High Bidding Strategy

Another method of bidding is by starting with low bids. This is very useful for keywords that aren’t so competitive or popular. If your budget is limited, you can also use this method. You begin by bidding low and then slowly increasing your bid price until you land on the first page. Again, you must try to land your ads on the first page with the lowest bid possible.

Make Use of Negative Keywords

Negative keywords are used in order to prevent your ads from showing up in searches that are unrelated. You have a specific audience to target and you want to make sure that your ad gets to them and no others. If you don’t use the negative keywords function, your ad could appear on the wrong place and wrong people. For example, you might be selling a dog collar and “collar” is your keyword. When a searcher type in the word “collar” into the search engine, he may not be looking for dog collar. He may own a cat and looking for a cat collar. This is where you used the negative keywords, add “cat” into the list and your ad would not appear. You must use the negative keywords to target your ads. This helps you target the necessary audience only, and helps increase your CTR more.

Ad Testing

Testing your ads is important,but you don’t have to do much because Google AdWords can test your ads for you. By placing in two different ads in each AdGroup, Google AdWords then alternately displays the ads in search results. After running your ads for some time, based on the CTR results of each ad, you can choose which ad to use. As you continue to test different ads, eventually, you will find the best performing ad.

Being the biggest search engine in the entire world, Google has millions of ads placed everyday. If you want to make sure that your Google AdWords campaign is successful, all you need to do is to know what is important. Follow these tips and continue to improve your knowledge Google AdWords.

Your Business Needs SEO

October 24, 2009 by Ben Janke

A good website can be a valuable tool for any type of business. If you are a traditional offline business then it can be a marketing tool to show potential customers your products and services or for online based business then it is critical to your entire business success.

HAve you suffered for the dissapointment of putting blood sweat and tears into a great company website, getting it live and then finding nobody comes to your site. If your trying to boost online traffic the your efforts need to be focussed on the mighty Google.

If you are a big brand then you may be lucky enough to have large volumes of people searching specifically for your brand and company website. If on the other hand you are not such a major brand then your going to get the best results in gaining new business by ranking well on Google for generic search terms relating to your business.  For example, if you ran a credit card comparison website then ranking for a term such as compare credit cards would be important.

Google and other search engines use a complex algorithm to decide who ranks where in search results. Google and others try to pick the most relevant and high quality websites for the search term. For the main search results you can’t pay Google to place you in a certain position but you can make your website more attractive to Google through a process known as search engine optimisation or SEO for short.

Many web designers fail to understand search engine optimisation when they build a site so you may need to learn some skills yourself or employ the services of a search engine optimisation company.

The process of SEO involves researching what your potential customers are actually searching for online and making changes to your site structure, page titles, headings, content and more to ensure each page is relevant to the keyword terms you want to rank for. It’s also important to build up quality inbound links to your website to support your status as a useful resource.

Don’t expect overnight results with search engine optimisation, it takes time but the long term rewards can put your business ahead.
