My Secret to List Building

As an internet marketer it is our responsibility to create a list. Well, we can if we want to but all the internet marketers that I have come to know have lists. It is because of this that I want to talk to you about my secret to list building and why it works so well.

My secret to list building is a little bit different than what most people do. My secret is to offer a high quality E-book that you can actually learn from and then wait for word of mouth to take effect. So, why does this method work so well? The trick is to get people talking about what you have to offer and then remind them who you are.

Here is how it is done.

Step 1 – Get somebody to download your FREE E-book. If you have not done so already, then I highly recommend you do it now. Once you get people do download the E-book you will want to start marketing your name and your E-book.

Step 2 – Internet Marketing – I use a bunch of different tactics to get my name out there and some of these tactics include; blog commenting, forum posts, Facebook marketing, Twitter, and article marketing. Facebook and Twitter work the best because your name can go viral in the matter of minutes and once it does you will see just how many people want your book.

As you can see, the trick is to offer a quality product and in my case it is my E-book. If you don’t have an E-book just yet, then write one or get a quality writer to write it for you. I know that paying somebody to write for you might not seem like the right thing to do but it actually works and you may not even know the difference. Trust me, just getting a quality product out there is the first thing that you want to do.

Tips on Building a List

Stay Connected – I have signed up for many lists from some “A” list bloggers and many of them send stuff on a daily basis. Now, there are also those that only send out an email once ever few months and those are the people that struggle to get any results from their list. It is because of this that I strongly recommend that you stay connected with your list.

Don’t Spam Your List – Are you sending out crap that you know your list will not like? If so, then stop. The problem with spamming your email list is that they will start to hate what you are doing and then remove themselves from your email list. This is a problem because the less people you have on your list means the less response/money/traffic you can get from it.

Keep Building – A list is never big enough, so don’t stop building it. So many people are afraid of taking their list to the next level and having to pay the fee from the email service provider but just know that it is well worth it if you have a quality list of hundreds of thousands of people.

Give Something For Free – Yes, you gave away a free product when the visitor first signed up for your list, but now what. Are you just trying to get stuff out of your list without giving them something in return? If so, then you need to try to give something away for free and see how well that works. A lot of people do this and they offer discounts for online items, free E-books, free seminars and also gifts. You may want to try this is you are not getting much out of your current list.

So, are you ready to start building a bigger list right now?

Can you double your time to make money?

We often cry for more time.  I remember that a few years ago when I finally decided I wanted to leave my job and have my own business, I attended as many seminars as I can to educate myself.

I stayed up till 1am every night reading books, and watching a lot of DVDs and MP4 files to learn internet marketing.

This media player called VLC Media Player has helped me double my time and productivity.  It is the #1 free media player, and great time saver!

VLC is quick and easy to install. You can make VLC your default media player for various (or all) file types, but if you just want to try VLC without giving up your current player, you can skip the file associations. 

The secrets of doubling your time and productivity is to choose faster speed x2 to play the educational DVD/MP4 files as illustrated below.  As such, you could halve the time to play a normal MP4 file, thus doubling your productivity.

You can download this #1 free VLC Media Player from http://www.videolan.org/

5 Ways to Earn Money through Social Media

Whether you own a virtual store or a simple personal blog, neglecting the importance of social media for it is a huge mistake. People spend the majority of their time on the internet with social networks; therefore, this represents the safest and most handy source of incomes and visitors. Let’s see 5 ways to make money with your blog with social media.

1. How to find people on social networks to bring them on your site?

• Ad Sense Integration
• Banners
• Articles

A blog can make money through AdSense programs of Google, through banners and commercials, but also by selling products to the interested people. As soon as you have those engines integrated on your website, it is time to think about promoting the website on those social networks.

In all the traffic charts and tops, the social networks can always be found on the first places in terms of traffic and visitors. This is because now it is trendy to stay on Facebook and Twitter just to see what your friends are doing. This is a method to bring visitors on your website, real visitors that might be interested about the products you sell or about the articles that you write.

2. Advantages of Social Media promotion compared with organic traffic

When you optimize your site for Google searches, you might need to wait for weeks before the visitors would come. This depends on the reputation of the website. However, while organic traffic comes harder, the social media traffic comes instantly. As soon as you send a message in the network, people would start reading your post or article. With social media traffic, you can expect instant results, and as soon as you have placed a new product in the list, you can expect people to enter and to buy your products.

3. Facebook promotion

• paid advertising
• free advertising

There are several methods to promote a page on Facebook. Free advertising might be a good solution, with the specification that you can’t reach a desired category of clients. Paid advertising will allow you to target only a category of clients, therefore you can reach only teenagers interested by clothes or pregnant ladies interested about pregnancy products. Yes, it is true that you need to pay for this advertising, but the money you spend will return to you under the form of visitors and sales.

4. Twitter promotion

You might be surprised about the number of people staying on Twitter all day long, and following any page or product. It is a method to earn money, as the people will instantly enter your page as soon as you “tweet” a new product on this network.

5. How to start earning money with social media

With a simple Facebook account and with a “tweet”, you can start an empire for your page. It is important to create a good image, and you should make people interested by your products with the quality of the respective products, not with spam and aggressive promotion.

Yes, I made it! Google Page 1 and Top 10 Ranking in 10 Weeks!

I am thrilled to share with you an exciting news that this blog has now achieved a Top 10 Google ranking and appeared on page 1 of Google search results, on the keyword of "how to make cash money".

• #7 ranking in the US 
• #8 ranking in the CA
• #9 ranking in the AU
• #10 ranking in the UK

  

After noticing the blog site made into page 2 of Google on Sunday, I made some simple tweaks on the blog title and labels. I am pleased to see that the website has subsequently moved up its ranking to page 1 on Tuesday.  It is indeed a great feeling to achieve a Top 10 Google ranking for my blog in just 10 weeks!

It appears that one of the biggest factors in getting your site ranked on page 1 of Google is having a good title tag.

Many sites out there have their title tags as "untitled" or "home" -- that's like shooting yourself in the foot and asking Google to slap you across the face!

When you have the RIGHT keywords in the right places like your title tags, you can rock your Google rankings.


With the aid of a tool called Webfire, I can check that my blog has the right keywords in the title tags.  It also gives me confidence that I can possibly crank up the Google ranking further if I start building some backlinks - my blogsite currently has only 6 backlinks according to Webfire.

I will keep you posted of my progress and continue to share my learnings with you.
