Choosing Topics for Internet Niche Marketing

When a marketer wants to start Internet niche marketing, the first hurdle is often what the topic of the site should be. Niche marketing depends on finding a unique product that will attract a lot of traffic and that will entice people to purchase whatever the site owner is selling. To get that traffic and to convince people to buy, the site should be about a topic that will accomplish several goals.

Niches with Low Competition
Internet niche marketing success means finding a topic that doesn’t have so much competition that the site will have a small chance of ever being prominently featured in search engine results. The topic should then be a very specific one that will reduce the likelihood of repetition. This often means choosing a subcategory of a broader category that already has a large amount of competition.

Along with having relatively little competition, the subject chosen should be one that is sought after online by people who use search engines. A subcategory will never have the same search numbers that a broad category has, but it doesn’t need them. With less competition, the site will bring in more traffic than if it were lost among the many sites centering on a topic that is searched more often.

Using an online keyword search tool can help a marketer to find interesting subcategories that the marketer may not have even known existed. Some marketers set up several niche sites that are devoted to subcategories of the topics that interest them. Each of these sites will bring in a different audience that is seeking information about the exact subcategory covered by the site.

Personal Choice of Niche Topics
Many marketers choose to set up sites that center on topics they enjoy or ones they are interested in learning more about. This can help to make it easier to create the content for the website, but can be limiting. Some niche marketers choose topics that are completely unfamiliar to them simply because the competition is low and the interest is high.

Choosing a topic from keyword research can result in a site that is just as successful as a website with topic chosen from experience. As long as the site has useful information, the site will find its audience. With some simple research, a site about any topic can be filled with valuable content that will draw in a sizable audience.

How NOT to Get Twitter Followers

Just about every affiliate marketing “guru” these days is ready to tell you how to get Twitter followers and make money with Twitter in one of a dozen ways.  Most gurus will only tell you half the story, though.  They often don’t tell you the kinds of mistakes you should avoid.

Don’t add too many people at a time.

Not only does this look spammy, it will also make your “following” number much larger than your “follower’s” score.  Even the people who don’t think this is spammy will likely view your account as a less attractive one to follow, if there’s this wide disparity.

(If you follow fewer people than are following you, that’s fine.  In fact, it’s the preferred situation!)

Don’t just tweet links to your site.

Nobody is following your account because they want to help you make money with twitter.  The same thing that goes for list marketing goes for Twitter marketing as well: people are only going to sign up if they think they can get something out of it.

If you want people to click your links, you’ve got to give them a reason to.  If you do nothing but send people to your website with your links, people will stop clicking through pretty quickly.

That’s why you need to post interesting, relevant material that doesn’t necessarily go to your site.  There are several services that will allow you to plug RSS news feeds (such as Google alerts) into your site.

Another great option is to re-tweet interesting posts from the people you follow.  Not only will this give you some interesting material to send out to your followers–it will usually result in your own material going viral from time to time.

Trick or Treat :-)

How about a little fun, Halloween style?

I’ve got a KILLER costume this year, and no I’m not dressing up as Tellman.

Leave your guess in the comments, and the first person to guess correctly will win $100, my treat!

(I’ll FedEx it to ya!)

I’ll even match the $100 and give it to the charity that Tellman’s running for.

So what are you waiting for? Get guessing!

(ONLY guesses in the comments on this post will be counted!)

UPDATED 5:22 PM EST: Hint: My wife made the costume!

UPDATED: 6:43 PM EST: Hint: Don’t forget I have kids!

UPDATED: 8:27PM EST: We have a winner! Congrats, Kristen McGill! She guessed it. Fred Flintstone. I am going as Fred & the whole family is dressing up as the Flinstone Family :-) I got the idea when we thought about driving our kids around the neighborhood trick or treating on the Kubota ATV :-)

Building a List of Targeted Customers

By Matt Bacak

Building a list is an important way to ensure that a small business owner has customers anytime that they are needed.

A business owner’s customer list doesn’t have to be made up of past customers, often it’s made up entirely of potential customers; at least, that is quite common in the beginning. The goal of list building is to generate a steady flow of list members becoming customers.

To ensure that the members of a list are people who will potentially buy from the list owner, it’s important to target the right demographics. Search for people who have an interest in the items that you are selling, look for individuals who already express an interest in your product. Some of those people may have bought something similar from you before, but to build a larger list, it’s important to set up a way to target people who may be interested in buying from you in the future.

Online List Building Services

There are a number of ways to encourage people to sign up on your customer list. Of course, you want to avoid being obvious about the process. The list members will know that they are signing up to receive correspondence from you, but they may not realize that your goal in creating the list is to allow for marketing messages to be sent along with the other information. This seemingly innocuous method provides you with a steady flow of potential clients without appearing aggressive.

Blogging on your Own

Website owners who use a blog to market themselves or their business have an ideal place to create an opt-in area. By offering email updates on their blog or a newsletter that offers the same type of information that the blog publishes, the blogger can quickly building a list of people who are already interested in their product.

Creating a newsletter to send to both past and future customers is a simple way to expose potential buyers to the marketing messages. A newsletter can be sent out weekly or monthly with information that will be of interest to the people who visit the blog or website. A newsletter can contain coupons for the product, in-depth information or updates that will be of interest to those who sign up. Each newsletter can also contain some language that markets the products being sold. Including a useful article about the use of the product also helps generate interest.

Whether you are trying to survive failed businesses, botched partnerships, heavy credit card debt, or bankruptcy, Matt Bacak offers firsthand knowledge on overcoming the hardships of a business. As an accomplished and established Internet millionaire and best-selling author, you might be surprised to learn just how much his startup business was like yours a few years ago.

The Importance of Text Links & Inside Links For Site PR

By Matt Bacak

When establishing a strong site page rank or PR as it is commonly known as, it is critical to ensure that you have specific keyword text links leading to your site. Remember it doesn’t matter if you have hundreds of links leading into your site, the magic is in the ability of those keyword links that are going into your site to have strong keyword relevance related to your niche.

Google ranks sites based on their keyword links. So the more links from other websites that you have that are actually turned into words, which are called hyperlinks or text links pointing to your site, the more votes Google gives your site for that particular keyword. This essentially will help boost your sites rankings in the search engines.

But before you start placing keyword links to your site one crucial element is to not have the same keyword text link leading into your site over and over again. Make sure that you use various relevant keywords that Google deems as top keywords in your niche. And you must ensure that several of those different keyword links are leading to your website.

One of the best ways to add relevant keyword text links to your site is through the use of press releases. Press releases are extremely credible sources of information but press release sites also have a very high PR in Google and if your site is having strong text links leading into it from a press release site like PRWeb or PRWebNews than your site has a very strong chance of ranking at the top of the search engines.

Specific keyword hyperlinks will help you rank higher in the search engines. But you must remember, your goal should be to rank higher for certain keywords. This in turn will rank your site higher in the search engines. This is one of the top strategies used by the highest ranking websites.

However, press releases are not the only way to get traffic to your website. Articles are also a great method to use. There are article sites like GoArticles, EzineArticles and ArticleCity just to name a few that get enormous traffic. If you have articles submitted to these sites and these articles have strong keyword text links leading into your main website related to that article topic, Google will definitely see your sites relevance – thereby giving your site the vote that can make the difference between you having a low PR and a high one.

However, one point you must remember is never have more than 20 links leading out of your site as this may hurt your PR ranking in the long run. As long as you focus on a strong keyword linking strategy and focus on showing your sites relevance and limiting the relevance of other sites in your niche, you’ll be on the road to success.

Matt Bacak Teaches How to Make Money With Twitter

It seems like Twitter is all the rage lately, but it still has a lot of people asking, “Can I really make money with Twitter?”  Those of us at Matt Bacak’s Bleeding Edge Team know that the answer is a resounding “Yes!”.  How?

Gain Twitter followers by following others.

The first and perhaps easiest way to make money with Twitter is by sending keyword-focused traffic directly to your site.  It’s simple math–the more people who follow you, the more people who’ll click through to your site.

Keep in mind that the best way to get targeted followers is to go to search.twitter.com, look up people who are tweeting about your keywords, and follow those people.  After a few days, unfollow the ones that don’t follow you back.

You can use Twitter to drive ultra-targeted traffic to your site.

Send a direct message to thank the people who follow you back.  Then make sure you send out interesting, relevant Tweets.

These tweets can be news items or links to your blog (use the link shortener bit.ly for a link short enough to allow you to type the blog title into your tweet).  Do the same for new pages you add to your website, or new articles you publish at directories.

Can you can tweet affiliate links directly to your Twitter followers.

It’s not entirely unheard of to directly tweet affiliate links on your account.  You just want to be sure that it is a product you believe in 100%.  If you tweet links to junk products, you’ll quickly lose both readers and credibility.

The Simplest Way to Start an Affiliate Program

By Matt Bacak

One of the quickest and the fastest ways to start an affiliate program is downloading a program called KickStart Cart. This program is used by top online business owners to manage their affiliate programs. Once you start using KickStart Cart also known as 1shoppingcart , you won’t regret your decision. But best of all, they offer a trial membership for 30 days. This will allow you to test the product before committing to it. This incentive can allow you to put your mind at ease if you have any doubt about your purchase.

Once you try the 30 day trial and test out the software, you will then need to upgrade – spending a bit more but this way you will know that you have all of the necessary features to run a successful affiliate program.

The best thing about KickStart Cart is that it offers excellent tutorials that I personally believe are one of the best affiliate programs currently on the market. Their tutorials offer an easy step-by-step way for you to quickly and easily set up your affiliate program.

But before you invest in an affiliate program you’ve got to make some decisions. How much money am I going to pay out to my affiliates? How will I want to set up my affiliate program? In other words, do you want your affiliates to get 50% or 70%? Do you want to get 30%? My recommendation is the more money you give your affiliates, the happier they’re going to be and the more they’re going to want to put in the extra effort to sell your products.

Another thing you also want to do is think about what emails you want them to send that advertise your product. You’ve got to supply your affiliates with effective marketing materials that work. In order to build your army of affiliates you want to make sure that you supply them with the right tools.

Remember, you’re going to war. You don’t want to have your team to have the worst artillery in the world. You want to make sure they have the best!

The Value of Building a List

The goal of any business is to make the most profit possible from sales. Building a list often figures pretty far down on many business owners’ catalog of things to do to accomplish that goal, but it is far more important than many people realize. To keep a business moving forward and growing, it needs a following of loyal customers. That’s just part of what building a list can do for your business.

Building Loyalty
If you want loyal customers, you have to keep your business name in front of the people who are most likely to buy from you. To do that, they need to have your name presented to them regularly. This can be done with a newsletter that is sent out to interested customers, reminding them often about who you are and what you have to sell.

With a large enough list, you can count on a contingent of people who are interested in purchasing and that remember who is offering what they want. That sets you apart from the competition and keeps you at the front of the minds of your customers.

Building Repeat Customers
When a past customer signs up for your list, you have an individual who has already been willing to buy from you. All you have to do to turn that first time customer into a repeat customer is to keep marketing to them until they are sufficiently convinced to buy from you again.

Most people who are successful online have a few things that they promote and sell. Anytime you add something to the list of items that you sell, you will have a built-in audience to market to if you have been building a list. You can even offer your list members special deals on the new items that you have to sell. A special coupon code that is just for the members of your list is a great draw to keep list members interested and can be used to attract new clients.

Continue List Building
Even when you have a sizeable list built, you still need to draw in new people constantly. Some people will eventually opt out of your list. Others will change email addresses and will not receive your new messages. To replace these members, keep building your list continuously to keep growing your business and to maintain the size of your customer base. For all of these reasons, it’s well worth any Web marketer’s time to generate a growing list. For more information about successful lists, check out Matt Bacak’s IM Gold.inflatable archways
