Mini Web Sites Make a Great Home Business

A mini-website is basically a sales letter that is designed to convert viewers into buyers. Usually these sites are composed of a simple one or two page layout that are designed for selling a single product. This type of site can attract more viewers, which means more sales and more money for you.

The steps for creating a mini web site are:

- Find a profitable niche.
- Determine the best product to sell for that niche.
- Write a well crafted ad.
- Design a landing page.

Make sure you do not include banners or other advertising since these might distract the attention of your visitors. Your only focus should be on selling your product.

Design a Mini Web Site

Each site should sell only one product and be optimized for just that product. Select keywords based on your product, that are popular enough to attract the amount of traffic you will need to make your site profitable, and always use your keywords in the title, heading tags, and graphic alt tags. Create an easy to order form, one that is fast to fill out, you do not want to lose customers because it takes too much time or is too much trouble to purchase your product.

Whatever you sell, start by quickly describing that particular product and keep your focus tight on that product. Try to pre sell your product by including several endorsements from people who are happy about using your product. After the endorsements, include several free bonuses to get your visitors even more excited about buying. To host your site look for a reliable hosting service, one that has a good track record for minimal down time. Select a domain name that includes your keywords this will also help your search engine rankings and get you more traffic.

Some benefits of Mini Sites are:

- Easier to optimize for search engine rankings.
- Inbound links to your sites will lead to a higher Google Page Rank.
- You can be an expert at whatever you sell or whatever service you offer.
- Higher traffic generated than regular web sites.

Mini sites are the easiest way to make some quick money because they do not require a large setup cost, and they are easy to design. All you need is a great idea and you are ready to make some money.

Making the Most of Public Domain and Private Label Content

Saturday, October 30th, 2010

Making the Most of Public Domain and Private Label Content

There’s so much public domain content available all over the internet, with Master Resale Rights available and sites springing up left and right with Private Label articles you can use, to create your own products. But what do you need to bear in mind? What is the best way to use all this content, and what can you create with it?

What to Look Out For:

Copyright - you absolutely must check on this - violating someone’s copyright is not clever and can be a really expensive mistake not to mention seriously damaging your reputation. Is it really public domain? All those lawyers fees can really mount up when checking into all this but believe me, you really don’t want to end up in court over it.

Public Domain Content - If you have the money to have a lawyer look at copyright for you then fine, go ahead and get started. Where can you find this type of content? It can be difficult to find content that is free to use but here are a few links to get you started:

http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Main_Page
http://www.wikimedia.org/
http://www.gpoaccess.gov/index.html

Master Resale Rights - If you can’t afford expensive lawyers what else can you do? One rather less pricey way is to buy Master Resale Rights to a product - this gives you the opportunity to name yourself as the author, use the content in another product, rewrite the whole thing - the possibilities are endless. Just be aware with this that you will need to look at the terms and conditions of what you are allowed to do with the product before you buy.

On a budget? - not to worry, there are still many ways you can find great content without spending a fortune or worrying about whether you can legally use it. Some sites provide guaranteed public domain or private label content for a monthly fee. You could also sign up to some of the well known internet marketer’s newsletters. Why? Well if you’re serious about internet marketing you should be checking out all the latest happenings anyway, but a lot of newsletter owners will have free eBooks, giveaways and articles to download - some of which you will be able to use as your own.

So you’ve got your content ready to go and you’ve checked your rights and permissions but there is one more thing to think about - sites such as http://www.copyscape.com can check for duplicate content on the internet and of course so can the search engines. This could mean anything, from the search engines deciding they won’t rate your site as highly because the exact same content is available elsewhere, to some smarty pants asking you if you really did write that incredibly good article, because they’ve seen someone else claiming that they wrote it too, so you do need to be aware of this when looking to use content you haven’t personally created. However, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t go ahead and make the most of all that wonderful information.

What Can You Do?

You could just read the information to learn from it yourself; you could read it to get ideas for businesses, more articles, content, and the list is limited only by your imagination.

How about:

* EBooks
* Print Books
* Presentations
* Membership Sites
* Face to face courses
* Mini courses
* Teleclass content
* Webcast content
* Podcast content
* Blog content
* Content for your Autoresponder
* Ezine content
* Articles for your site to build AdSense income pages
* Viral Reports
* Tips Lists

When it comes to using all the content you have gathered, you need to look through it all and decide what you want to produce. If you plan to use content from more than one source, such as 2 or 3 articles by different authors to be combined into a report, you will need to go through and change the content into a similar style. Check that it is all written in the same tense, make sure the formatting is the same throughout, check for spelling and grammar (for example - spelling for some words is different in the US than the UK) and look through all the articles to see if any of the points made are duplicated.

Once you’ve done this, make a list of points you want to make in your report, read the articles through again and start combining them together to fit what you want to say - cut and paste to copy sections into the right place.

Next, look at the way your draft reads now and see if it fits your style of writing, your personality and your business. Reword it to fit with this - there’s no point in producing a very formally written, stiff sounding report for a hobby site.

At this point you could just tweak it, proof read it, and then go ahead and publish it. But, to take it a step further and make it really unique, why not look at how you might rewrite it. So that all of the content is yours - now you’ve got the basic idea down and laid out. It shouldn’t take you long to reword things, add in some of your own ideas and keywords that fit your site, and maybe a few quotes. Suddenly you are looking at something that no one else has, that the search engines will love and that no one can claim you copied.

It™s Time to start creating!

Niche Marketing - How to Contact Your Audience

Niche Marketing - How to Contact Your Audience

Is your website targeting a niche market?

Whether you are following the advice of top Internet Marketers or if you just happened to have a business that caters to a very specific target audience, you must be able to find your audience, and they must be able to find YOU.

One of the joys of niche marketing is the luxury of tapping into a favorite hobby, occupation, or expertise and building a business around it.

If you are expanding an existing off-line business by setting up a webpage, you may find your most valuable contacts right in your store. Make some brochures or cards that announce your online presence, or ask customers if they would like to sign up for your online newsletter.

Now you can contact your customers about new products, industry news or specials with no postage costs or time consuming envelope stuffing.

Invite your subscribers to recommend the site to friends who are interested in the topic. Even better, have a place on your website to ‘tell a friend’. Your visitor will enter their own email address and name as the sender of the message to avoid spam complaints. Warning - do not start emailing the invitee unless they sign up personally for your newsletter.

Niche sites will really benefit from a newsletter. Create a small free gift, such as a special report or how-to manual that they will receive with their subscription. By providing valuable information related to your topic you will gain the trust of subscribers. By contacting them at least several times a year - up to once a week if possible - they will always be reminded of your website when looking for information or products in your niche.

Create a website that has informative content. Incorporate the keywords (words or phrases visitors type into their search engines) into the content to improve your place in the search engines.

Write articles that will set you up as an ‘industry expert’. If you don’t feel capable of writing them yourself you can hire a ghostwriter. End the article with your name, a comment about your business and a link to your website. Submit your article to relevant websites or ask if website owners would like to use your contribution. Be sure they agree to keep your name and website link intact.

You may find discussion groups that cater to your market. Involve yourself in their conversations and attach a signature with your website address if the policies permit. Do not advertise on these groups; however, you may be able to offer your free item when the situation allows.

Try to determine where your market is. Are they parents? Retirees? Home owners? Pet lovers? If you are selling art supplies you may find hobby sites will cater to your audience. If you sell information for do-it-yourself projects you should show up in home decorating as well as financial sites (’Save Money on Home Building Projects!’ for example).

Always look for new opportunities and offer your best, the rest will follow!

High-Tech Chatteling

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

High-Tech Chatteling

Imagine that you have an EBay store, or other type of store, where you sell let’s say- books. How awesome would it be if you could go to a book sale to buy books to sell for profit, you take out your cell phone, punch in the ISBN # and see how much it is selling for elsewhere - even online. This service can help you save time, therefore making money for you.

It is called, ScoutPal. Most of us own and use cell phones regularly, if you make it web-enabled (or use a PDA) and learn to use it as another tool to find out what prices are on various products, you are tapping into a High-Tech answer to success. This is definitely a look at our future when dealing with High-Tech ways of making profitable buying decisions. It is especially helpful too when buying wholesale, or for resale. Finding out if something is selling at a much higher price somewhere else, is the way to be able to supply a product in demand, in another place also, assuring a good profit. ScoutPal can help you to accomplish this task quite easily.

Now a look at “Chatteling”: the definition of this word in the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary is as follows:
Chattel pronunciation: [cha-t l] (noun) - an item of tangible moveable or immovable property except real estate and things (as buildings) connected with real property.
Therefore, the “business idea” here is to find items of merchandise for pennies on the dollar, then turn around and sell it for big profits. By including new methods like using ScoutPal you make this age old trade High-Tech, giving you an advantage over others trying to do the same thing, without the added technology.

We have offered an example of selling books, but you can have a business with just about anything that you choose to sell. How do you find these items to sell? Your answer is yard sales, garage sales, merchants going out of business, closeout stores, store sales and clearances, donation stores, etc.

You can then offer these items for sale in the newspaper or on the Internet for a profitable amount of money. These types of items can do very well on eBay or any of the many auction sites available to you. There is even Craigslist.org if you buy and sell large items and only want to sell in areas close to you. This is also an excellent place to find merchandise to sell too.

Make sure that you have a reasonably good digital camera, (most phones offer these also) and take good pictures of what you are selling from various angles, then include positive information, the more statistics and information you can provide the better. This will save you time in the end, by not answering countless questions from customers and it will show the customers that you are professional by offering as much information as you can provide them.

If you are one of those types of people that are self-motivated, hate the 9 -5 regimen, and would like to be your own boss, this could be the “business idea” for you!

Build Passive Residual Income for the rest of your Life!

Thursday, September 10th, 2009

What’s The Best Way to Make Residual Income for Life in a Bad Economy?

First…

What is Passive Residual Income & what’s so significant about it? Simple!

If you manage to have an adequate amount of, Residual Income coming in so that you can live on comfortably, then…

You’ve Achieved Financial Independence!

Although there is quite a distinction between Passive and Residual Income, in this piece, I’ll use the terms interchangeably in their more General Context.

Residual Income is a kind of income that… once it’s set-up, entails no more contribution from you!

The Types of Passive Residual Income…

There’s countless kinds of Residual Income and the easiest to recognize is a “Retirement Pension”!

The conviction is that generating Residual Income can take various forms, for example…

An Author gets a Percentage each time one of his/her Books is purchased, and then there’s earnings from investments in stocks, savings accounts or bonds, or renting real estate, and Royalties are paid to musicians, performers and artists each time their work is aired, etc…

Sadly…

ActualTrue Residual Income Is a Myth!

Income that’s Fully Passive truly is a Myth, but…

Once you understand the Residual Income Myth, then you’re on your way to generating real Wealth, and steady Residual Income that is about 90% Passive.

Now you’ll have the Real Secret!

If you already have Wealth, you have more choices for getting some Residual Income, but for most of the run of the mill person the choices are very much more limited.

Even if you have money to invest, it can’t truly give you Residual Income for the reason that you have to adminster your investments, so it’s not really passive is it?

The other is to retain “another person” to manage your investments, however… do you know for certain that this human being isn’t one more Bernie Madoff?

Also, except if you’re an Expert Investor, why would you endanger your hard earned Capital in this Economic situation!

As well, most people will under no circumstances become prominent Authors, Actors, Movie Stars, Musicians or Artists, but still for individuals who do achieve that type of Residual Income, what will happen when…

Some new Craze surfaces and people discontinue buying the books, the CDs, seeing the movies, etc.?

Of course the best Residual Income is a pension, but how many thousands of people have had their pensions vanish, as corporations went bankrupt in the preceding few years?

Also… nobody can live on a Government Pension, and even that’s not so sheltered these days as a basis of Residual Income.

Luckily…
The World Wide Web has arrived and makes probable a new type of Residual Income that was never likely in the past, and also…

If you recognize what to look for, you can begin producing some Residual Income for next to no capital investment, but not in the same way which a good number of people imagine.

The Secret these days, if you’re lucky enough to find that Rare Opportunity is…

Internet Network Marketing

The main trouble is a good number of people don’t recognize what they need to look for in an Internet Network Marketing Company, and…

They get Sucked-In by all the Propaganda and do nothing but squanjder Money!

In fact, I plan to produce an Article & probably I will also do a Video in the near Future on:
“What you need to Look at when evaluating an Internet Network Marketing Company”!

It’s really so easy the moment you understand what (and why) to look for, and we’ve discovered a situation that can produce lifelong (almost Passive) Residual Income, but…

For that to happen, we had to Craft an online support infrastructure so that we would produce a Recession Proof Residual Income which would come from a worldwide scope, but there existed just one quandary…

We’ve got the cutting-edge of high tech tools but we need a small Group of players to run these online tools which can perform most of the Hard Work, and so…

We’ve just opened the doors and we’re accepting new Joint-Venture Partners (no investment) who desire to participate (equally) in this Residual Income Venture with us!

So you see, residual Income that’s almost Passive is now doable without Risk!

Unfortunately…

This Residual Income opportunity isn’t available over the whole world as yet, but it’s presently to be had in 12 countries with 2 new ones opening October 2009

Let me sum it up…
The first Lesson that you have to learn so that you can build lifelong Residual Income is that there is “Nothing for Nothing in this World”, as generating Residual Income is bound to necessitate some energy, regardless if it’s in the shape of Money (as in investments), or an investment of your time like in our Joint-Venture Residual Income Opportunity.

Residual Income is definitely a key to Financial Independence but it does take some time to build. Because it will not take you a month or a year to achieve Financial Independence however if you carry on working on your Residual Income, you’ll produce the results you wish for.
