Internet Marketing Newbies - Secrets For Newbies on How to Go to the Next Level

This article internet marketing for newbies has a lot of straight, plain talk you probably won't hear anywhere else because not all of it "pitches good." No bull. You won't hear much of this talked about other than here.

*  How to overcome mistakes

Let's say you screw up or make mistakes. So? You thought you were God? Only God is God. Everyone else makes mistakes and screws up.

How do you overcome mistakes?

You sell enough stuff and big enough ticket stuff that it doesn't matter. You create a sales machine, so you have the room to make mistakes and not suffer.

*  How to find the time

You may say, "But how do I find the time for all of this?"

If you use webinars or teleseminars as the basis for your product creation, it doesn't take that long.

If you learn to interview people in your products, so that part or all of the content is theirs, it doesn't take that long.

You've got to focus on what pays your bills - learning to create sales messages that get people to buy then getting those sales messages in front of the right people.

*  How to get traffic

One of the perennial questions is, "How do I get traffic to my web site?"

This usually means you're still in the "web site creation" model. The idea is that your job is to "build web sites." And somehow by building or assembling lots of web sites, your bills will get paid. That's OK for newbies just getting started. You can pay a few bills that way.

But you've been there and done that or you wouldn't be reading this. So let's get real. You get paid when someone buys something. Plain and simple.

Getting thousands of people to your web site makes you zilch.

Would you rather have 1,000 visitors who do NOT buy or ONE who buys? I'll take the one who buys. The BEST traffic bar none comes from your affiliates. Chances are, you've been sucked into the idea of being someone else's affiliate. And I love affiliates. Affiliate marketing is a GREAT way to get started in this business.

But the best traffic comes from affiliates. And affiliates send traffic to the offers that get the most bux per click. And the secret to getting most bux per click is split testing and learning to craft super powerful sales messages.

Nothing happens until someone buys.

And no one buys until someone sells.

Here are your best traffic sources:

a. Getting affiliates to promote your products

b. Article traffic

c. organic seo

d. ppc

e. banners

f. cpa traffic

We could debate the order of some of the above. But you can write or get written and submit dozens of articles a week and get traffic that way. You can buy ads.

Here's the thing: It ALL works and pays your bills as long as you have a SALES MACHINE that follows up and gets people to buy over and over and over again.

Without a sales machine, not much above will work. As long as you write the articles yourself, article marketing will. If you have a sales machine, it ALL works.

* The bottom line

The thing that separates the newbie from the next level up is the willingness to create and the willingness to sell.

Here is what I think:

a. It sounds good in theory

A lot of these people give you 2 or 3 examples of sites they created in a few hours that bring in $30-$100 a day.

But they don't tell you they had to create 10 or 20 to find those.

The same thing for those super big  campaigns that make your eyes bug out. They don't tell you they created 100 to find that 1 to give you as an example.

b. The person has a very high skill level

I've seen people who actually DO this. And they have a very high skill level that few people could match. If you're a genius, a lot of doors open up to you.

c. The person skews the truth

The pitch doesn't necessarily lie but it omits key facts.

d. The System isn't evergreen and will be "broken" in 6 months or a year.

If you want to build a solid business that will be around 5-10 years later, learn how to get people on a list and get 'em to buy stuff.
