Can I Learn to Market and Promote in 40 Pages or Less?

Ummm, no.

Internet marketing, website promotion, online business building is indeed very easy - to those that know the game or have already established a presence. But to the un-initiated, the un-taught, and sadly the opportunists who believe it can happen overnight - well, that’s a different story.

Targeting A Niche and Setting Up An Online Store

2006-03-14T18:20:00.000-06:00

Some interesting news today...

Everyone, including the search engines love blogs.

WordPress is the online entrepreneurs blog software of choice.

Now you can combine the power of WordPress, the search engines, a script and a file from online merchants and make your own stores - where you earn an affiliate income with every sale but don't have to manage or ship products!

And you can set these sites up in about 20 minutes if you know WordPress already.
Watch these 'how to make money' videos and get the links you need to start today.

If you don't know WordPress let me tell you it's as easy as typing a letter and sending out an email. So simple. Not much more difficult than blogger, but definately much more search engine friendly and versatile. Anyway, there's one trainer who teaches the best techniques for WordPress - beginner to advanced - and his membership price is super cheap for the return you'll get in traffic and sales and knowledge. Go to WordPress tutorials and see for yourself. The first 12 videos are free.

Then, get busy building your own online store with affiliate income! I had a sale on a new domain, without advertising, in less than 3 weeks. Many more to come - I'm so excited because it only took me about 20 minutes to set up!

Got a niche?

2006-02-04T10:17:00.000-06:00

If you've got a niche market website (a finely targeted topic) and you're wondering how to make more money from it, consider selling an ebook!

Am I asking you to write an ebook? Goodness no! Who has time for that? Go grab the resale rights to a decent ebook and either sell it on your website or sell it to your email list.

A lot of niche market ebooks are relatively inexpensive to pick up the resale rights to. Do a search in google 'resale rights - your niche topic' or search through this new site ResaleReview.com

While you're there you can grab a fast read for free by signing up for rights updates. The ebook shows you 6 ways to make money off the resale rights ebooks you own.

Resale Rights - Niche Markets and Internet Marketing

2006-01-09T17:04:00.000-06:00

Just spotted a new site for internet marketers and website owners.

This doesn't appear to be one of those mega membership sites where you have to pay in for 100 products on a monthly basis. This site is fully searchable - looking for car related resale rights? - pet related resale rights? - internet marketing related resale rights?

Search by your keywords or by the categories. It's pretty new so there's not much there I don't think anyone's actually promoting it yet. If you need resale rights to just one or two products to gain subscribers or add bonus items to your current product sales this may be the place to grab resale rights for niche markets one or two at a time.

Niche News - Mark Joyner's Gone Crazy...

Mark Joyner's Gone Crazy...
Once hailed as the GodFather of Internet Marketing, Mark Joyner has come out of seclusion on steroids!

First, he quietly launched his new forum just for those sitting on a waiting list wondering when Mark would re-join the marketing community online.

Then out came a few quiet teleseminars on creating money from thin air with a new release of his Confidential Intelligence Internet Manual 2 (fantastic by the way) plus other products with resale rights.

Then, his hard cover book was released - The Irresistible Offer (see it below). I own it and the only reason I haven't digested it in one sitting is because I'm pacing myself and savoring each chapter. If you think you know everything about marketing and advertising, I guarantee you a few intellectual surprises.

Finally as if that wasn't enough Mark Joyner has joined forces with the Nitro boys once more to bring you a free 1+ hour training on Viral Traffic.

Niche News - Software Product Management

2005-11-02T13:53:00.000-06:00

Software Product Management
Product Management was created in the 40s at Proctor and Gamble for managing the business of a specific product. Through the years, product managers (and brand managers) have served as"chieftains of the product"in consumer goods companies. Here the product management was relatively easier for no need of technical knowledge. But in technology market, the three corners of the functional triangle are sales, marketing and development.

Business RSS
While RSS was at one point only considered to be a means to deliver news headlines, RSS has quickly become a powerful medium to disseminate all kinds of information. As traditional marketers are attempting to rein in content delivery, measuring e-mail open rates, click-throughs and conversions, Internet users are fighting to gain control over the content they receive. Savvy marketers and business owners are using RSS as a way to improve corporate communication and increase their external exposure and brand appeal.

2005-10-19T15:53:00.000-05:00

Determining Keywords
Determining keywords is a critical step in web design. If your website and meta tags do not contain related keywords, web surfers will be unable to find your website when they conduct searches.

The formula is a little tricky - you will need to locate terms that are popular and relevant to your site. These terms may or may not be terms that *you* feel are relevant terms.

Niche News - Evolution of Google AdSense

2005-10-18T15:53:00.000-05:00

Evolution of Google AdSense
The web has evolved into a complex"organism"which, to some, appears to have a life of its own. As the Internet has evolved, so too have online marketers and publishers. The dot-com balloon is said to have burst but savvy publishers have grabbed the coat tails of the Google search monster and employ Google AdSense on content-rich websites. Google AdSense, a pioneer for providing content-sensitive advertisements, has been a boon to webmasters looking for alternatives to amortize their web trafffic.

How Does Google AdSense Work?
The concept is simple: The publisher or webmaster inserts a java script into a website. Each time the page is accessed, the java script pulls advertisements from Google's AdSense program. The ads are targeted and related to the content contained on the web page serving the ad. If a web surfer clicks on an advertisement served from Google, the webmaster serving the ad earns a portion of the money that the advertiser is paying Google for the click.

When building an affiliate network communicating with affiliates is important for merchants to maintain a good relationship. An affiliate's web site targets visitors, who may not necessarily view a merchant's web site, and therefore expands a merchants market.

In this world there are big mistakes and there are little mistakes. Digital River recently collected information related to usage and installation of its SoftwarePassport application, without disclosing the tracking to it's customers. The actual tracking was done by including a UserAx.dll in the recent versions of SoftwarePassport and Armadillo.

Developers obviously have a number of concerns related to the new DLL. I'm hoping this article will separate fact from fiction, and get to the heart of the matter.
