Commission Blue Print

First off, I want to thank  those of you who have signed up on my website for internet marketing and list building tips. I’m sure you’ll get a lot out of the techniques that I’ll be sharing with you over time.

But, the reason for this post is to share my own experiences with a new product called the “Commission Blueprint”.

Internet marketing can be a tough business. Although everything is going great now, the truth is it wasn’t always plain sailing.

The problem I had (and I’m sure you can agree with this) was that when I started, I tried to pursue way too many systems at the same time without ever sticking to
one for more than a couple of weeks. Not to mention the total information over load just from emails alone.

I spent an absolute fortune snapping up every little bit of information I could get my hands on in the hope of finding the ‘magic system’ that would make me an internet millionaire over night.

In hind sight I know see that most of these so-called systems had been produced by people who’d never actually made a dime themselves – they were simply cashing in on short term ‘get rich quick’ fads by creating products that had been rehashed from other sources. In other words, I was destined to fail before I had even started.

I still have some good courses that I saved, but they didn’t help much either because at the time I lacked the experience necessary to implement their strategies.

Whether you’re successful or not depends entirely on whether you have the time, money, or skill to set things up in the correctly while avoiding the common pitfalls.

Set things up right, you create a community of buyers around your business and make a ton of cash. Do it wrong, and you’re just wasting your time. 95% of product creators don’t go far enough in order to help people use their method successfully. Either they can’t be bothered or they’re making the whole thing up as they go along.

This is exactly where the “Commission Blueprint course is SO DIFFERENT from all the other stuff you see. Because it’s full of the actual tools you need to quickly side-step the most common mistakes and stay on the road to on-going profits.

Everything is done for you. You get the tools, the landing pages, the auto-responder messages, not to mention 5 hours of instructional videos showing you precisely how to set everything up for maximum profit.

Discover Why The Money Is In List Building

There are many techniques an internet marketer will use to promote products and to drive quality traffic to their website; but there is one free method of advertising that stands out from the rest. You’ve heard it before, “the money is in the list”.  We are talking about list building to promote products and to drive quality traffic to your website.

When you are list building, you collect email addresses of people who visit your website and want to be contacted whenever you have something new to share. It could be an e-book, or a new tip, or a newsletter. When you build a large list you will have contact with thousands of quality leads who will be interested in what you have to say. With one click of your mouse you can send out an email to thousands with your information.

One way of list building is to put a sign up form on the top of you web page where no one will miss it. Ask for their first name and email. Over the top of the sign up form, write, “Get List Building Tips by Email” or “To Receive Your Free E-Book Sign In Here”. These are customers that you can contact over and over again when you have new products or new information.

Pop up forms are another good device that many Internet marketers use to collect names. The nice thing about them are you don’t have to change your pages to include a pop up form because this floats over your page.

Repeat business is extremely important to internet marketers. By capturing their email you have access to them when ever you have new information. With your email information you send them you are showing them your knowledge in your field and building trust with the people on your list. You work very hard to build a list; don’t do anything that could destroy it. Treat the people on your list with total respect and don’t swamp them with emails. Nothing will turn a person off quicker.

So that you are not mistaken as a spammer, you must have a double opt-in list. A double opt-in is when the customer gives you their name and email. They are giving permission to be emailed by you. They will then be sent an email asking them to confirm that they want to be part of you list. You also required to place an unsubscribe message at the bottom of each email, so they can opt-out out if they are no longer interested.

So start your list building today. Imagine if you had a small list of only 1,000 subscribers and what if only 2% wanted to buy your product, and you were making $20 in commissions on each sale? Think about it $400 for typing up one little email on your auturesponder and clicking send. What if you had a list of 100,000 people, or more!

Driving Quality Traffic to Your Website Using Keywords Search

Using keywords search to drive quality traffic to your website has become one of the most important things you can do as an affiliate marketer. Although it takes a lot of time in research and testing, the time you spend to do it right will more than pay for itself.

The purpose of keywords search is to find the most popular keywords people will use when they are searching on the internet for a product, service, website or any other things they want to find. As a website owner, I want to find these important keywords people are using so that I can draw quality traffic to my website. This is called search engine optimization or SEO for short.

Search engine optimization is the process of driving as much quality traffic to a website from a search engine’s organic (natural) search, using relevant keywords.   The higher the ranking in the organic results with a search engine, the more traffic you should have to your site.

You must learn the demographics of your target market. Commonly used demographics that an affiliate marketer may look at include: area of the country their customers are from, their occupation, age, sex, income level, education level, etc. You want to get into their heads and try to think how they would enter a search for your product or service.

For example; you are selling snow shovels on your website. You wouldn’t have much trouble selling someone a snow shovel in New Hampshire, but who in South Florida wants to buy a snow shovel. Well, what about a construction company that is cleaning construction debris off the floor, or a landscaper shoveling mulch out of the back of the truck. You need to know your market, how your product can be used and you need to determine the relevant keywords to draw customers to your site.

As mentioned above a keywords search can be time consuming, but with some practice you can easily master it. There are many tools to help you find relevant keywords, some are free and some you pay for. These include tools; such as, keyword research tools, keyword suggestion tools, keyword density analysis tools and keyword valuation tools, just to name a few.

To conduct a keywords research for the right keywords, you need to know the demographics of your target group as mentioned above. You must also know the specific industry terms used for product searches. Broad words will bring about huge competition. We are looking for less competition, but high quality leads. Using long tail keywords will help tremendously. For example, if I were selling a weight loss product and I use weight loss as a relevant keyword; I would have competition from 11,100,000 other people on the global monthly searches. Here’s what happens when I change the keyword:

Weight loss                 11,100,000   Searches

Healthy weight loss           90,500   Searches

Weight loss Help               40,500   Searches

Safe weight loss                 27,100  Searches

The number of searches is going down, but now we are down to more qualified searches. What if we tried: “fastest way to lose weight”  we would have 65,000 searches, still a lot of competition, but it is closer to where I would want to be. You see the long tail keyword, “fastest way to lose weight”, will drive high quality traffic to your website as compared to the broad keyword “weight loss”.

Keyword research is very important for search engine optimization and should never be ignored. The right set of relevant keywords can make a huge difference in your website’s traffic and sales.
