What is internet marketing?

Internet marketing, or online marketing, is the use of techniques to promote a product or service over the internet. Good internet marketing techniques should be able to produce more visitors for your website or your affiliated company’s website.

There are a lot of strategies that can be employed in internet marketing. Website promotion is one of the major strategies to use but e-mail campaigns and affiliate marketing, to name a few, are quickly generating huge volumes of sales turnarounds nowadays. An internet marketing strategy may encompass a wide range of activities. You can optimize websites to improve their ranks in search engine results, create an affiliate program, or manage your mailing lists.

Copywriters are great at getting us excited and worked up over the various big-money, online-business products they want us to buy. While it seems that they are doing all the work, this is not really the case. It is our hopes and dreams, our desire for success, our need to be accepted, liked and appreciated-the list goes on-that gives the copywriters the power they seem to have over us.

Like the wind that brings life to a flame, the copywriter fans our fantasies until even our wildest wishes seem to be real possibilities. But just as a flame without fuel has but the briefest existence, our fantasies are soon extinguished trying to burn the lifeless fuel of our unrealistic expectations for our online business.

I believe that unrealistic expectations are a major cause in the failure of many online businesses. Unrealistic expectations can cause us to aim at the wrong targets, use the wrong rulers to measure success or failure, lead us to make poor product selections and miss winning monetization strategies.

The online business model that is most popularized is the single website that pulls in hundreds to thousands of dollars each month, or even each day. For far too many, this is the image of where the real money is to be found.

But there is another model used by many successful netrepreneurs. This model may not be as glamorous as that of the big cash manufacturing website, but it can be highly profitable. The model I’m talking about is the Multiple Streams of Income Model.

This model involves multiple websites, usually mini-sites, (5 to 10 pages) which focus on a well defined keyword group. These sites usually rely on AdSense and/or affiliate products for monetization. Unlike the big cash models, these mini-sites are not very impressive in their money earning capacity, often netting only 50 to 300 dollars a month.

However, a common characteristic of these sites is that once they are producing, they tend to keep producing, steadily, month after month, with minimal effort. The trick is to create many such sites, each making its own modest little contribution to your large monthly income. Multiple Streams of Income is a strategy that can be put into play by virtually anyone and requires very little up-front investment-that is where the real money is found.

What id Internet Marketing? We all use many other names to describe the same actions. Bottom line is, we want to sell whatever in order to make money. It reminds me of an advert for antiques. “We buy JUNK and sell ANTIQUES”. Marketing is the ART of packaging our product and presenting it to a potential customer in such a way that they want to buy and will buy.

This means we need to know;

1) Our customers, their likes and dislikes. This information is invaluable as it is the KEY to successful Internet Marketing.

2) Source or create suitable products or services to suit our targeted markets. Remember that no one product will suit all customers.

3) Advertising RULE is the same. Your Ads must project an image which will suit your group audience. This means your Ads MUST be different in their appeal.

4) Another rule we need is FLEXIBILITY. By all means see what your competition is doing, but don’t be a copy cat. Be creative in your presentations, this includes your PACKAGING of products as well as ADVERTISING. See if they are working and be prepared to Trash or Amend as the case may be.

Since there is a huge field of competition out there, the above paragraphs are not a ONE TIME do and I can sit back and become rich. To stay on top we must be like the champion athlete who trains every day. He eats drinks and sleeps his burning desire to stay ahead of the competition. Two words come to mind, Dedication and Commitment. You want to be a successful Marketer then apply these words to your Vision of being successful. It is a case of Review, Review, Review, and then Review again and revise if necessary.

Don’t believe all the hype you read about getting rich quick. Nothing is free in this life! YES you can and will get rich provided you apply that four letter word; WORK. Those who got rich discovered this secret of dedication. Another word to describe dedication or commitment is Sacrifice. In other words “Short term PAIN for long term GAIN”

Listen up; I could go on about how to sculpt your Ads and how to set up sales pages. That is the easy part for there are many books and stuff on the Internet which deal more effectively than I can in this article.

Here is the deal, be a good manager. Do I mean your website? No, that is important but not so important as in Setting Goals and Time Management. You have a vision to get rich that is your major goal. However to reach there you need the where with all to be an achiever. Acquire the necessary knowledge, which means setting lesser goals and this is where managing you time comes in. Prepare yourself well before embarking on the venture of you life. This is where sacrifice comes in. Fewer nights out, less time spent in front of the TV. If you are a family person, you need to manage your time even more so.

Why do so many would be ‘Get Rich” fall by the way side? Simple, they are not good managers. They lacked dedication and commitment with no real preparation. Perhaps too, a little gullible for believing you can be an “Arm Chair” million heir racking in the LOOT!

Friend, it takes a lot more to be a successful Internet Marketer.

One must narrow down the vast selection of affiliate products. Of coarse, it is essential that you focus on products which are profitable. Furthermore, it is very important that you narrow down the vast selection of affiliate products to those which are related to your target market or niche. Within Project #1 of Affiliate Elite there are a number of filters. When using these filters, you can accomplish this focus on narrowing down the product choices using the category and subcategory filters. After you have created a list of products which are related to your niche, then you can continue to filter from a profitability viewpoint.

Clickbank does not release the sales data on its products. But Clickbank does provide an index which is named gravity. Gravity is very difficult to define, I believe this is done purposely by Clickbank. Brad Callen defines gravity as the measure of sales volume over time. He gives several examples which boil down to: gravity is a moving average over 60 days of units sold. Sold unit totals are net of returns. The value of the gravity reflects current popularity meaning that current sales are weighted more heavily than sales made 45 days ago. I believe that Clickbank has selected 60 days as the time period for its moving average because of its unconditional 60 day refund policy. Makes sense to me. OK, in general, the higher the value of gravity for a product, the higher the number of sales for the product during the last 60 days. Also the more current the sales for a product, the higher the gravity. Also the fewer the refunds for a product, the higher the value of its gravity. Affiliate Elite offers a feature here which is truly remarkable. Clickbank will not clearly define the sales numbers or refund numbers for its products. If you highlight a product and click on the bottom tab for gravity, then you get a time line for the value of gravity for that product over time. You select the time period up to 90 days. This information is priceless. This tells you which products are stable, which products are becoming more popular, which products are becoming less popular. Isn’t this exactly the type of information that you need to make your business decisions about which product should I promote?

The next bit of analysis is very important. One of the Clickbank factors is earned per sale. What Clickbank offer here is the average earnings per sale, with refunds subtracted, over all sales. If you again highlight a product and click the bottom tab for earned per sale, then you get a time line for the net earnings per unit sold. If this value is declining over time, then either the commission rate has changed downward (which you can check with another lower tab) or the refund rate is rising. The converse is true as well. What is even more important is that if the earned per sale is constant over time then you can assume that the refund rate is stable. The only caution here is that the product must have completed the initial sales surge associated with the hype of product launch. The reasoning here is that during launch there are many impulse buys which later become refunds when the hype settles down. Even with that exception, this result concerning refund rates is very useful as it allows you to select stable products which the market perceives as good value (low and stable refund rate).

Brad Callen goes over gravity and the time line features of Project #1 in great detail because these features are essential when making product selection decisions. Before AE, this information was gathered by calling associates and asking about the market for a specific product, or analyzing the activity at Google Adwords… basically using gossip and intuition. Now we have data upon which to base our business decisions.
