6 Easy Ways To make Your Online Marketing More Productive

To make Your Online Marketing More ProductiveAre you always wondering about the secrets behind successful and famous sites? Do you always find yourself asking why these sites generate so many clicks while you struggle to generate quality traffic?

And why do marketers make huge amount of money and you don’t? Well, the success of a website largely depends on the effectiveness of marketing tools that are being used in making it famous online.

You can also take your website to the next level if you energize your internet marketing strategies. Here’s how you can do that:

1 . Optimize your web content. The first thing that you need to achieve is secure a higher page ranking for your website so it will become much easier to find online.

One of the best ways to do this is by making it search engine-friendly. You will need to figure out the most popular or most used search terms within your chosen niche and you have to sprinkle them all throughout your web content.

This will help the search spiders in properly indexing your website. It would also help if you can use relevant HTML tags and if you can build numerous quality inbound links for your website.

2. Update your website regularly. Give your visitors a reason to come back by always giving them something new. You may post new content on a regular basis, change the design of your home page every once in a while, or incorporate amazing add-ons like podcasting, forums, blogs, and discussion boards.

3. Invest in PPC advertising or paid search campaign. This marketing tool will help you leverage search engine traffic.

All you need to do is bid for keywords that are extremely relevant to your products and services. Each time a relevant search is made, your ads will show prominently on search page results, making your website one click away from your prospects.

4. Use article marketing. Most internet marketing experts agree that distributing your articles online is the most effective marketing/product promotional tool to publicize your website and your offerings while you increase the number of your incoming links. This can lead to higher page ranking and more traffic.

5. Social media. Maintain an ongoing communication with your potential clients while you establish your expertise on your chosen niche by promoting your products and services using forum posting and blogging.

Through these tools, you’ll be able to offer your prospect with the kind of information they need so you can brand yourself as an expert that they can trust and can do business with.

6. Build an email list. This may be the most cost effective asset your online business delivers. It can pay you back over and over for many years to come.

4 Useless Internet Marketing Tactics You Should Avoid

4 Useless Internet Marketing Tactics You Should Avoid

internet marketing tacticKnowing what doesn’t work can sometimes be more important that learning what does. Here are some things you should avoid when marketing your web site.

It’s easy to get confused with all of the various ways that you can be marketing your web site. Over the years I have tried just about every one and have learned some things along the way. Here’s some real time and money wasters that you can safely avoid doing.

1. SPAM Don’t waste your time on trash

You don’t like getting spam in your email do you? Neither does anyone else. Don’t send unsolicited commercial emails to try and promote your web site or product. (Out of all of the things listed here, I have never gone this route and won’t).

You risk getting your site shut down if your Internet Service Provider gets enough complaints. You can also be “blacklisted”. This means your email can be labelled as spam and be blocked by a lot of service providers.

Spam is stupid and a very poor decision for a business to make.

2. Free For All (FFA) Links

There are some sites which let anyone list a link to their own site. Sometimes you are required to put your own FFA link page up on your site. This tactic does not work. The only people reading FFA sites are other sites looking to post their own link. It is totally untargeted towards any potential customer.

Additionally, some search engines will penalise you for having FFA links on your site. They basically equate them as being garbage and not something a legitimate site would do. I can’t say I blame them.

3. Banner Ads

Once upon a time (in the late 1990′s) banner ads were very common and fairly effective. They don’t work very well at all anymore. I have read statistics that the click through rate is down to a mere percent of what they used to be.

You will have a much more effective chances of getting a visitor to your site by having a legitimate endorsement. You should also avoid having banner ads on your own site unless it is for your own products. Why on earth would you want to be sending people away from your site when you could be earning a higher profit if they stick around?

4. Classified Ads

Online newsletters commonly offer low priced classified ad spots. You can pay a few dollars and have your 4 to 5 line ad listed at the bottom of some newsletter when it gets sent out.

Generally these ads don’t work too well. I don’t read them. Do you?

Anything That’s Not A Solo or Top Sponsorship Ads

As a follow up to the classified ads, it is worth mentioning that not all ads are bad. You should try for a more prominent ad if you are going to go the newsletter route.

I recommend the Solo Ad or as second best, the Top Sponsorship Ad.

A solo ad is just that. Your ad is run all by itself. You have the reader’s full and undivided attention to your ad. The downside is that you will be paying top dollar so you want to track your results. If the ad was profitable, then keep running it until it is not anymore.

A top sponsorship ad is the very first ad in a newsletter. These can be pretty effective. They are a good alternative if you don’t want to take the plunge to buy a solo ad.

When it comes down to advertising in a newsletter I stick to either solo or top sponsorship. Otherwise I don’t even bother.

Knowing some of these tips can help you to avoid wasting your valuable time (and money) on ineffective marketing tactics.
