Monday, August 27th, 2007

There are many of us who know about Hostgator, a web hosting company. Even if you are new to internet marketing, you will hear a lot of it from the gurus.

There are many people who ask me whether I am a fan of Ewen Chia? What do you think?

How to Build an Opt-in List II

Saturday, August 11th, 2007

From the previous post, “How to build an opt-in list I“, we talked about the mistakes to avoid when building a list. As said before, maintaining a list is the harder part compared to building a list. List building involves relationship building.

Doing it the right way requires some skills and effort. Before you start out to build a list, think of what you want to get out of it. It could be just to build your brandname, to offer freebies, or to make a profit out of your list. Whatever it is, you must put across the right message in your first introductory message after the the opt-in confirmation. You do not want your subscribers to have the wrong idea of what they can get out of you. If they get the wrong message, they will opt out or simply become unresponsive. (more…)

Should Beginners Use AdWords for List Building?

Friday, August 10th, 2007

I came across various methods on how to build a list. Since having a list of subscribers is vital for all internet marketers, many people are struggling to build up their own list. Some people will advice to offer a free newsletter from your website to build up your list, while others will suggest to write a free report or ebook to entice visitors to optin to your list. For any methods which most people suggest, that offer you give in return for the subscriber’s contact must be true and compelling offers.

Some people may find that by giving free reports, ebooks or newsletters are effective in list building. In a way, it is true as the beginner can easily buy private label rights and modify the articles and give it to his subscribers. However, such methods takes time and money to take effect too. Why? If you have such good offer for your potential subscribers, yet you only find that there are only a few visitors to your websites. Do you think you can entice them and build up a large list? Also, these methods are useful when the beginner has knowledge on SEO to attract traffic to his optin page to build his list. Then again, if he is that good, he wouldn’t be a beginner, right?

Hence, I am telling you that there is another method to build up your list, even if you are a beginner and you don’t even know anything on SEO…

Do you earn your income from new and repeated customers? A business needs new customers to expand its reach and returning customers to sustain its business.

Cody Moya - A Creative Internet Marketing Expert

Sunday, August 5th, 2007

Cody Moya is a creative internet marketing expert whom I like. His articles usually filled with useful ideas and most of the time, ideas which we usually overlook. Recently, I have came across one of his articles on “15 Creative Ways To Make Money With eBooks”. Some of his ideas are really brilliant and I will like to share them with you and some of my thoughts about it.

 

Give away a free ebook and then give people an option of buying the paid version of the ebook. Also let others give away the free version of your ebook

I think this is a good idea suggested from Cody Moya, though some of the internet marketing gurus have already been using this method. When people have downloaded the free version and read it, they will be more confident of your product based on the free version. In fact, when they have read the free one, they will be more tempted to find out more from the paid version. Hence, they are more willing to pay for your ebook. The best part is, when you allow people to give away your free version of the ebook, these people will become your “affiliates” and help you to reach a wider pool of potential customers!
