Tebing Bunga Lily


Dikisahkan, ditepian tebing yang terjal dan terpencil, tumbuhlah satu tunas bunga lily. Saat tunas bunga lily mulai bertumbuh, dia tampak seperti sebatang rumput biasa. Walau tampak seperti sebatang rumput biasa, si tunas muda itu merasa yakinbahwa suatu saat nanti dirinya akan berubah menjadi bunga lily yang cantik mempesona. Tetapi rumput-rumput liar di sekitarnya menertawakan dan mengejeknya. Bahkan burung-burung dan serangga menasehatinya supaya si tunas lily berhenti bermimpi menjadi bunga yang indah. Kata mereka, "Sekalipun kamu bisa mekar menjadi bunga lily yang cantik , tetapi karena kamu berada di tebing yang terpencil, maka tidak ada seorang pun yang akan datang melihat dan menikmati keindahanmu".

Diejek seperti itu, tunas bunga lily tetap diam. Bahkan ia semakin rajin menyerap air dan memanfaatkan sinar matahari untuk memeperkuat pertumbuhan akar dan batangnya. Akhirnya suatu pagi di musim semi, kuncup pertama pun mulai bertumbuh. Bunga lily merasa senang sekali. Usahanya tidak sia-sia hal ini menambah keyakinan maupun kepercayaan dirinya. Bunga lily berkata kepada dirinya sendiri, "Aku akan mekar menjadi sekuntum bunga lily yang indah. Kewajibanku sebagai bunga adalah mekar dan berbunga. Tidak peduli apakah akan ada orang menikmati keberadaanku atau tidak. Aku tetap harus mekar dan berbunga sesuai dengan jati diriku sebagai bunga lily".

Hari demi hari, waktu terus berjalan. Akhirnya, kuncup bunga lily pun mekar dan menebar bau yang harum di sekitarnya. Kini tampaklah keindahan bunga berwarna putih yang sempurna. Saat itulah, rumput liar, burung-burung, dan serangga tidak berani mengejek atau menertawakan si bunga lily.

Bunga lily pun tetap rajin memperkuat akar dan bertumbuh terus. Dari hanya satu kuntum menjadi dua kuntum bunga, berkembang lagi danterus berkembang, sampai akhirnya tepian tebing pun diselimuti oleh hamparan putih bunga-bunga lily yang indah dan mempesona. Tebing terjal dan terpencil itu pun akhirnya berubah menjadi taman bunga lily yang sangat indah dan menarik hati. Tempat yang semula sepi itu kini dikunjungi banyak orang. Baik dari kota maupun desa, semua berdatangan untuk menikmati keindahan permadani putih bunga lily tersebut. Akhirnya, tempat itu dikenang banyak orang dan terkenal dengan sebutan "Tebing Bunga Lily".

*****


Cerita ini mengingatkan kepada kita, bahwa kondisi kehidupan manusia disegala lapisan status sosial, sering juga mengalami penganiayaan dan penghinaan seperti kisah yang dialami oleh bunga lily.

Saat kita memiliki impian, ide, cita-cita atau apapun keyakinan kita, kadang karena keadaan kita sendiri yang lemah saat itu, memungkinkan orang lain menertawakan, memandang rendah, bahkan menghina kita. Sebenarnya hal seperti itu adalah sebuah fenomena yang wajar saja.

Jangan peduli ejekan orang lain, jangan takut dianggap remeh oleh orang lain, tidak perlu menanggapi semua itu dengan emosi, jengkel, marah, apalagi membenci. Sebaiknya kitajadikan keraguan dan ejekan terebut sebagai cambuk untuk memperkuat tekad dan usaha untuk mencapai tujuan. Tetap yakin dan berjuang dengan segenap kemampuan yang ada, buktikan semua mimpi dapat diperjuangkan menjadi kenyataan.

Selaras denga pepatah yang mengatakan "A great pleasure in live is doing what people say, you can not do". Kepuasan terbesar dalam hidup ini adalah mampu melakukan apa yang dikatakan orang lain tidak dapak kita lakukan. Menghadapi segala kesangsian dan keraguan orang lain, hanya satu jawabannya : buktikan bahwa kita bisa! Kita mampu! Hanya denga bukti kesuksesan yang mampu kita ciptakan, maka jati diri kita lambat atau cepat pasti akan diakui, pasti akan diterima.


"Jadikan keraguan dan ejekan sebagai cambuk untuk memperkuat tekad dan perjuangan dengan segenap kemapuan yang ada, buktikan semua mimpi dapat menjadi kenyataan".


So, mari kita wujudkan mimpi kita agar menjadi kenyataan... keep fight, do the best, make dream come true... good luck!

Pola Pikir Orang Yang Sukses

"Everyting is Possible with inspiration and hardworking" oleh Valentino Dinsi. Hal penting mendasar dan paling penting yang membedakan antara orang yang sukses dan yang gagal (belum sukses) adalah pola fikir

Karena pola fikir orang sukses sangat berbeda dengan orang yang belum berhasil, maka cara mereka mengambil tindakan juga sangat berbeda, dan otomatis hasilyang mereka peroleh juga pasti sangat berbeda

Hal inilah yang membuat orang sukses selalu bisa dengan jeli melihat peluang ketika banyak orang melihatnya sebagai masalah. Oleh karena itu, langkah awal dari kesuksesan kita harus dimulai dengan memeperhatikan pola pikir kita.

Sekarang, kita memodifikasi pandangan kita dengan meniru pola pikir orang yang sukses (diolah dari buku "Secret of The Milionaire Mind" - T Harv Eker) sebagai berikut :

(1). Orang Sukses melihat dirinya lebih besar dari masalah mereka sebaliknya orang yang gagal selalu menganggap diri mereka lebih kecil dari masalah yang mereka hadapi.

(2.) Orang Sukses memilih untuk mendapat kompensasi berdasarkan hasil, sebaliknya orang yang gagal memilih dibayar berdasarkan waktu.

(3). selalu mengelola uang mereka dengan baik, sebaliknya orang yang gagal tidak pernah mengelola uang mereka.

(4). Orang Sukses tetap mengambil tindakan walau sebenarnya mereka takut, sebaliknya orang yang gagal membiarkan rasa takut menghentikan mereka untuk take action.

(5). Orang Sukses selalu ingin belajar dan bertumbuh, sebaliknya orang yang gagal selalu merasa pengetahuan mereka sudah cukup.

(6). Orang Sukses memiliki keyakinan bahwa merekalah yang menentukan masa depan hidup mereka, sebaliknya orang yang gagal yakin bahwa masa depan tergantung nasib.

(7). Orang Sukses salalu mengagumi orang sukses lain, sebaliknya orang yang gagal selalu ada rasa iri hati dan cemburu terhadap orang yang sudah sukses.

(8). Orang Sukses selalu mempunyai impian besar, sebaliknya orang yang gagal tidak berani memiliki impian.

(9). Orang Sukses yakin bahwa dirinya pasti kaya, sebaliknya orang yang gagal selalu berharap mereka akan kaya.

(10). Orang Sukses fokus pada asset, sebaliknya orang yang gagal fokus pada gaji.


Sekarang, saatnya Anda menuliskan pada kertas 10 pola pikir orang sukses diatas, tetapi ganti kata "Orang Sukses" menjadi nama Anda.

Contoh :

Jika nama Anda Ahmad, maka yang Anda tulis di kertas tersebut adalah :

(1). Ahmad melihat dirinya lebih besar dari masalah apa-pun.
(2). Ahmad memilih untuk mendapat kompensasiberdasarkan hasil.
(3). Ahmad selalu mengelola uang dengan baik.
(4). Ahmad tetap akan mengambiltidakan walaupun sebenarnya takut.
(5). dan seterusnya ...

Sudahkaah anda mengoptimalkan Aset Terbesar milik anda?

Ketahuilah bahwa sejak lahir, semua dari kita telah dikaruniai sebuah aset yang sangat berharga, yang bisa menghasilkan kekayaan dan kesejahteraan yang berkelimpahan dan tak terbatas.

Inilah yang dinamakan aset intelektual. Ketika Anda bersedia menginvestasikan waktu dan fikiran untuk mengembangkan pengetahuan Anda, maka Anda pasti akan menerima hasilnya berlipat ganda seumur hidup Anda. Good luck.

Cara Mendapatkan semua yang Kita Inginkan

(1). Kebanyakan orang mempunyai tujuan yang pada dasarnya hanya sebuah keinginan yang lemah. Sebagai akibatnya, mereka akan selalu menemukan alasan untuk tetap tinggal di dalam batas-batas kenyamanannya dan tidak melanjutkan usahanya.

(2). Satu-satunya cara untuk memperoleh segala hal adalah dengan membuatnya sebagai sebuah KEHARUSAN.

(3). Jika kita memiliki komitmen untuk melakukan apa pun yang diperlukan, kita akan selalu menemukan jalan.

(4). Kita semua memiliki tingkat HARAPAN dan tingkat PENERIMAAN. Kita cenderung menuju pada tingkat penerimaan kita.

(5). Kita harus menaikkan tingkat penerimaan dengan BERGAUL dengan orang-orang yang LEBIH UNGGUL daripada kita, baik dalam hal bermain tenis, menjadi orang tua yang baik, atau dalam karier. Mereka akan menginspirasi kita dan membuat kita merasa TIDAK PUAS.

(6). Anda harus menempatkan diri anda pada JALUR YANG TEPAT jika anda ingin memperoleh sesuatu. Buatlah DEKLARASI kepada publik atau tempatkan diri Anda pada posisi merasa TIDAK PUNYA PILIHAN LAIN SELAIN SUKSES.

(7). Kata-kata yang anda gunakan mempengaruhi kerangka PIKIRAN dan EMOSIONAL yang Anda rasakan. Penggunaan kata “HARUS” akan memicu MOTIVASI dan perasaan segera BERTINDAK.

How to Make Money With Google AdSense Templates?

by Aakash Shah

People develop websites for various reasons. The website may be a personal website or an affiliate website or a sales page website or a website dedicated to provide information for users and so on. Most websites in the internet are developed for making money. Affiliates develop websites to sell their products.

All webmasters will love their websites when they make some residual income out of the websites. Google AdSense is a way of monetizing the website in order to generate a residual income. The income generated by Google AdSense is a passive income. With AdSense you will be paid if the visitors click on the ads placed by Google in your website. Only text based ads are placed by Google so you need not worry about the loading time for your website.

The revenue generated by Google AdSense is perfectly legal. The sellers are often searching places for marketing their products. They submit their ads to Google and Google places these ads in your website if your website has the same theme as the ads. The advertisers will pay Google and Google pays you. You may be paid when the visitor just views or clicks. The amount of money you will be paid depends on the keywords of your website and the number of visitors who click on the links in your website.


Since AdSense generates residual income, it is a god's gift for webmasters. They will be getting money endlessly for their effort of creating a content rich website. Placing AdSense ads in your website is simple. You need to follow the following steps to do so.

(1). Create a content rich website and apply for Google AdSense and wait for a few days.

(2). Google will approve your website based on the quality of your website. You will be then provided with an AdSense account. When you login to AdSense you will be given a JavaScript code to place in your website.

(3). Place this code in any or all pages in your website and bravo you will have Google ads in your website under the name ads by Google.

(4). When your website visitor clicks or views these ads you will be paid. Google accumulated your earnings and sends you a cheque when your earnings reach a minimum of 100$


There are some dos and don'ts to follow to get endless earnings out of AdSense. Google has a privacy policy and if your website is found to deviate from the policy, Google will deactivate your account and your earnings will be lost. You should be a gentle webmaster to earn out of Google.

You have to check your website status often. If you find any suspicious activity or any computer generated clicks in your website, then you must report to Google. You can advertise your website wherever you want to attract visitors but you must not spam anybody.

Google disallows webmasters to click on their own ads. Google will track the ip address and geographic locations of the incoming clicks. If you accidentally click on your own ads you can inform Google so that your AdSense account will remain active. You can also disable ads for your ip address so that you can avoid accidental clicks.

Google has various pre designed templates for their ads. You are not allowed to change the code for displaying ads. You can match the color theme of the Google ads to match the color of your website to make the visitor feel that they are actually links in your website.

To get relevant ads you need to have a content rich website. When you provide useful information for the visitor there is a high chance that he will navigate through your website clicking on links for getting more information. If he clicks Google then it means money to you. Be gentle and genuine and you are sure to get a descent revenue using Google AdSense.

Big Profits Using PPC In Your Affiliate Marketing Business

by The Affiliate Guru

PPC is one of the four basic types of Search Engines. PPC is also one of the most cost-effective ways of targeted internet advertising. According to Forbes magazine, PPC or Pay Per Click, accounts to 2 billion dollars a year and is expected to increase to around 8 billion dollars by the year 2008.
Let us take a quick look at how PPC Search Engines work.

These engines create listings and rate them based on a bid amount the website owner is willing to pay for each click from that search engine. Advertisers bid against each other to receive higher ranking for a specific keyword or phrase.

The highest bidder for a certain keyword or phrase will then have the site ranked as number 1 in the PPC Search Engines followed by the second and third highest bidder, up to the last number that have placed a bid on the same keyword or phrase. Your ads then will appear prominently on the results pages based on the dollar amount bid you will agree to pay per click.


How do you make money by using PPC into your affiliate marketing business?

Most affiliate programs only pay when a sale is made or a lead delivered after a visitor has clickthrough your site. Your earnings will not always be the same as they will be dependent on the web site content and the traffic market.

The reason why you should incorporate PPC into your affiliate marketing program is that earnings are easier to make than in any other kind of affiliate program not using PPC. This way, you will be making profit based from the clickthroughs that your visitor will make on the advertiser's site. Unlike some programs, you are not paid per sale or action.

PPC can be very resourceful of your website. With PPC Search Engines incorporated into your affiliate program, you will be able to profit from the visitor's who are not interested in your products or services. The same ones who leave your site and never comes back.

The visitors who have found what they needed from you site are likely to come back and review what you are offering more closely. Then they will eventually come back to search the web for other products.

This kind of affiliate program is also an easy way for you to generate some more additional revenues. For example, when a visitor on your site does a search in the PPC Search Engine and clicks on the advertiser bided listings, the advertisers' account will then be deducted because of that click. With this, you will be compensated 30% to 80% of the advertisers' bid amount.

PPC is not only a source of generating easy profits; it can also help you promote your own site. Most of the programs allow the commissions received to be spent for advertising with them instantly and with no minimum earning requirement. This is one of the more effective ways to exchange your raw visitors for targeted surfers who has more tendencies to purchase your products and services.


What will happen if you when you integrate PPC into your affiliate program?

PPC usually have ready-to-use affiliate tools that can be easily integrated into your website. The most common tools are search boxes, banners, text links and some 404-error pages. Most search engines utilize custom solutions and can provide you with a white-label affiliate program. This enables you, using only a few lines of code, to integrate remotely-hosted co-branded search engine into your website.

The key benefits? Not only more money generated but also some extra money on the side. Plus a lifetime commissions once you have referred some webmaster friends to the engine.

Think about it. Where can you get all these benefits while already generating some income for your site? Knowing some of the more useful tools you can use for your affiliate program is not a waste of time. They are rather a means of earning within an earning.

PPC Domination Versus Social Media

by Jim Zimmermann

The second half of 2008 and the beginning of 2009 has seen the advent of marketing through Social Networking and moving away from pay-per-click (PPC) advertising. There are many Social Networking sites that have become very popular, such as; Twitter, Facebook, Myspace, Linkedin, and there are many more. But, if you are using these Social Networking sites as a means of advertising, you could be making a big mistake. While Social Networking is a very important tool to use, it is really only a tool to making friends, building social equity, and building your reputation. The primary purpose of Social Networking is not for generating targeted leads on a daily basis, and it is not for making money in a consistent, direct, and focused manner.

Social Networking does not allow you to outsource your personality when you want to take a vacation, or even better, when you want to retire. There is no way to split test, target, or increase results with the click of a mouse. If you aren't able to do any of these things, are you really building a long lasting busineess?

This is what makes PPC domination such an important part of doing any kind of business on the internet. PPC domination is the most important skill that anyone marketing on the internet must learn. If you want to build laser targeted advertising campaigns or build a strong, dedicated downline, ppc domination is the one way that you can guarantee that you will get a steady stream of qualifid traffic.

PPC advertising is a pretty easy skill to learn, there are thousands of tutorials available on the internet. PPC domination is much harder to learn. What is meant by PPC domination?, PPC domination means that you have the ability to make Adwords advertising completely FREE and make money every time you run your and while taking almost 100% of the risk out of your Adwords campaign.

Hopefully you learned a little about the reasons that PPC domination is still the best to succeed on the internet and that Social Networking is great tool for building your personality, but not for building a long lasting business.

A Simple Way To Integrate PPC and Affiliate Marketing

PPC is one of the four basic types of Search Engines. PPC is also one of the many cost-effective ways of targeted internet advertising. According to Forbes magazine, PPC or Pay Per Click, accounts to 2 billion dollars a year and is expected to increase to around 8 billion dollars by the year 2008.

The One Tool Every Internet Marketer Can’t Live Without

To succeed in Internet Marketing, you need tools to help you run your Internet business.

Internet marketing is not just about making money online.

It’s about running a profitable business on the Internet that is going to provide you with profits on a consistent basis for the long term.

It’s not a hit and run situation where you only earn money 1 time.

To make lots of money on the Internet, you need to view Internet marketing as a real business, just like you would when you run an offline brick and mortar store.

…and to be successful in running a very profitable Internet business, you need tools.

PERIOD.

You can’t do everything manually. There simply isn’t enough time for you to do everything by yourself.

We only have 24 hours in a day, so we should focus our time and efforts on the more important things and leave the repetitive tasks which can be automated into the hands of technology.

Hey we’re living in the 21st century!

One VERY IMPORTANT aspect of Internet marketing that you can automate is through the use of an autoresponder system.

An autoresponder system basically is a system to follow up with your website visitors so that you can build beneficial and trusting relationships with them, in the hope that they’ll buy your products/services in the future.

In this ever-increasing-competition society that we live in, every marketer and his dog is doing everything they can to sell their products and services.

People are getting tired of being harassed with marketing messages all day long.

Because of this, it is VERY HARD to be able to sell your products/services to prospects on your first encounter with them.

This is especially true if you’re selling your products/services on the Internet.

They don’t know who you are and they see you as someone who’s hiding behind a computer.

With that said, in order to be able to successfully sell your stuff to prospects, you need some kind of mechanism to “capture” their contact info so that you can follow up with them on a consistent basis to build trusting relationships with them.

After they begin to trust you will you be able to sell your stuff to them.

Sure there are exceptions where prospects buy your stuff the first time you offer them, but this is VERY RARE.

If you want to sell effectively and consistently you MUST have an autoresponder system in place to follow up with them.

To get people to sign up for your autoresponder, you need to “bait” them with some kind of valuable freebie such as a free report on your field/niche. If they want to receive this valuable free report, then they need to give you their contact info (usually in the form of email address).

Once they signed up for your autoresponder, you email them every few days to build beneficial and trusting relationships with them.

The best part with this autoresponder thing is that you can compose your messages in one go and then determine when you want these preset messages to be sent out to your prospects and it will do the job of automatically sending out the email messages for you (yes even while you sleep)!

SUPER IMPORTANT: Do Not sell your products/services all the time within these emails. Instead what you want to do is to have a mixture of education/sales messages.

Let me explain…

Let’s say that someone just signed up for your autoresponder to get your free report. Your first message to him should be to congratulate him for requesting your report to affirm him that he’s made the right decision. You want him to feel at ease and assure him that he’s going to get valuable and useful information.

Another message might go out to him automatically from your autoresponder system 3 days later and educate him more about your niche.

Then a few days later your autoresponder system emails him another message revealing even more great content.

You can then set the next message to be a sales message where you do your sales pitch about your product or an affiliate product if you don’t have a product yet (by the way if you don’t have a product yet, you might want to check out my brand new product creation crash course Instant Product System).

The key is to keep a balance between content and sales message. If all you do is send out sales message all day long, then your subscribers (people in your autoresponder system) are going to unsubscribe and you will not be able to follow up with them anymore, ever.

The converse is also true - that is, DO NOT send content messages all day long without doing any selling because if you do then you’re not going to sell your products/services.

After all, the whole purpose of getting them on your autoresponder system (also known as your list) is to follow up with them so they buy your products/services. If you don’t do any selling, you might as well not set up your autoresponder system in the first place.

In my opinion, having a good autoresponder system in place is A MUST to be able to sell effectively on a consistent basis.

The 2 leading autoresponder companies on the market today are Getresponse and Aweber. I’ve been using Getresponse since the start of my Internet business and I highly recommend them. Aweber is known to be awesome as well, although it has a much steeper price when your subscribers go over the 500 limit.

Whichever company you choose, make sure you get an autoresponder system in place for your Internet business!

"What topic should I write about?"

This is the first big decision and the first point where everything can go wrong.

If you choose the wrong topic then you begin walking down the wrong path and it might be months before you even realize it and change direction.

Here's some common mistakes people make when choosing a topic to write a blog about:

- Don't pick a subject just because you see others make money writing about it
- Avoid writing about something you are passionate about, but very few other people are

- Don't base a blog on a topic you know little about or have minimal practical experience in

- Be careful not to write about too diverse a range of subjects, your blog must have a focus


WHAT IF YOU HAVE NO IDEAS AT ALL?

For people who have no idea what to blog about I tell them to write down a list of their hobbies, passions, experiences, education and skills in all areas of life and then take that list and derive blog topics.

In almost all cases it's easier to start a blog from something you have an interest in, so I try and steer people in that direction rather than get too caught up in the potential to make money.

I honestly believe that if you have traffic you can make money, and it's traffic that is hard to generate. The money comes easily enough once the traffic is in place, so it's better to seek topics you have the most potential to build an audience from.

For people who struggle to choose between a range of ideas I suggest picking one and devoting a serious amount of time to it. You have to really "throw it against the wall and see if it sticks" before you really know whether a blog topic will work.

Sometimes no amount of research, self reflection, internal or external analysis will give you an answer. Only the MARKET can give you a definite result. You have to set a blog up and just start writing and see what happens. You can always make adjustments as you go along.

It's crucial to pick just ONE idea and not attempt to start a blog about every topic you have an interest in. If you spend your energy and time across three blogs you will end up with three average blogs. If you pour 100% of your effort into just one blog, you give it the best chance of success.

At the end of a three month trial period of focusing on just one blog you at least have a conclusive outcome, whether successful or not. There is no ambiguity about whether you worked hard enough and you can honestly say you gave it your best shot. You can continue with the blog if it appears to be gaining traction or move on to a different topic if it didn't.

At the end of three months of consistent blogging you also have an ASSET. Even if your blog doesn't have much traffic, it does have three months of content in it, so worse comes to worst, you can sell your blog and recoup a few hundred dollars and then take your experience with you into your next blog project.

There is no such thing as failure if you actually put something out there and learn from the experience and sometimes the only way to really know whether a topic has potential is to test it on a real live blog.


CASE STUDY

My friend Alborz began blogging by creating three blogs on subjects he enjoyed and believed had potential to become successful. He chose -
1. Cars
2. Going out in his hometown of Brisbane
3. Windows Vista (when it was in prelaunch)

He ended up writing one post a month to the Vista blog, one post a week to the Brisbane blog and one post a day to the car blog.

You won't have any problems guessing which blog took off.

Yep, the car blog.

Alborz eventually dropped the other two blogs and focused his energy on his one main blog, which became a massive success (last I heard he was making over $40,000 a month from it!).

All of the topics he chose had potential and he had interest in, but only one came out on top because of two reasons -

1. He found he was most passionate about cars, so much so that he enjoyed writing one or more articles per day to his blog

2. The car blog received the best response from the market - he built an audience

Sometimes you can't make concrete decisions until you actually test your topic ideas.

I suggest you narrow down your topic list and then start writing. If you have no trouble producing one new post a day, then do it for three months and see whether people like your work.

No one can tell you what to blog about, it's up to you to decide. Just don't stay suspended in limbo due to decision-paralysis. Nothing will feel 100% right until you actually start doing it.

Here's to your blogging success,

These 2 Elements = Profits

If you’ve been marketing online for some time now, you should have already known that the there aren’t really any “big secrets” to online profits.


The “big secrets” (as the “gurus” called it) basically comes down to 2 very important metrics :

(1). Traffic
(2). Conversion


If your site receives a lot of visitors but none of them buy your products or services, then you are not making any money.

Conversely, you can have the world’s best converting site, but without traffic, you won’t make a single sale.

Hence, these two elements work hand-in-hand together.


Traffic + Conversion = Profits

That is why it is very important that before driving massive traffic to your site, make sure that your conversion rate is good. But then again, without any traffic at all, you can’t gauge how good or bad your conversion is.

The solution is to drive decent amount traffic to your site and see what the conversion rate is.

For example if you drive 100 visitors to your site and you make 1 sale, then your conversion rate is 1/100 = 1%.

You could probably do better than 1%. Of course, it depends on the sources of traffic as well, as different sources produce different conversion rates.


Not all traffic is created equal.

For example, affiliate traffic tends to produce better conversion rates than traffic from social bookmarking sites, while joint-venture traffic usually produces better conversion rates than affiliate traffic.

Once you’ve calculated your conversion rate based on a decent amount of traffic, for example 200 - 300 visitors, you should always try to improve on it before driving any more traffic to your site.


Why?

Because advertising costs are increasing every single day. Since you’ve worked so hard (in terms of money, effort, and time) in getting that visitor, you should make sure that you have a great converting site so that he or she becomes a buyer.

Even if he doesn’t buy your product or service right then and there, you should have some kind of freebie to bribe him in exchange for his email address, so that you can follow up with him to generate sales later on.

An excellent yet free tracking program that can track visitors on your site is Google Analytics. I’ve also done an article some time ago that’s titled 5 Reasons Why You Need To Track Your Visitors. Be sure to read that article to get a better understanding why it’s important to track your visitors.

Once you’ve managed to obtain a great conversion rate, be sure to note down the changes you’ve made to your site, so that you can refer back later on and see which specific element you changed that has a major impact on the conversion rate.

Who knows you might be able to duplicate this change on your other site to boost its conversion rate as well, even though different markets and different sites may react differently.

But hey, this is testing and tracking, and nothing is perfect. That is why it’s called “testing and tracking”!

Once you’re satisfied with your conversion rate, it’s time to drive traffic like mad to your site and make oodles of money!

And you know what, since you’ve taken down notes which elements on your site you changed that resulted in a boost in your conversion rates, you could probably slap up a mini-report and sell it for a low price or use it as a freebie to bait more people into your list.

Viral Marketing, apa ya....???

Istilah Virtual Marketing diperkenalkan oleh seorang profesor Harvard Business School, Jeffrey Rayport, pada bulan Desember 1996 untuk artikel "Fast Company The Virus of Marketing". Istilah itu lebih lanjut di populerkan oleh Tim Draper dan Steve Jurvetson dari perusahaan modal usaha pedagang pakaian. Jurvetson Fisher pada tahun 1997 adalah orang pertama yang mengiriman Hotmail e-mail dengan menyisipkan (melampirkan) iklan dalam surat e-mail keluarnya.

Di antara orang pertama yang menulis tentang viral marketing di Internet adalah media kritik Douglas Rushkoff dalam buku Media Virus 1994. Asumsinya adalah bahwa jika iklan sampai pada seorang penerima, penerima tersebut akan "terinfeksi" (yakni, mendaftar untuk sebuah account) dan kemudian melanjutkan penularan pada penerima lainnya. Selama terinfeksi setiap penerima mengirimkan surat ke lebih dari satu penerima (reproduksi rata-rata lebih besar dari satu), standar di epidemiologi menyiratkan bahwa jumlah pengguna(penerima) terinfeksi akan tumbuh sesuai dengan kurva yang melengkung, bertumbuh menjadi semakin besar (meningkat).


So, Viral marketing atau viral iklan adalah mempromosikan informasi dengan menyebarkannya melalui komunitas atau jaringan sosial yang lebih besar untuk mendapatkan popularitas atau tren untuk mencapai tujuan pemasaran (seperti penjualan produk) dengan cara menggandakan diri (seperti proses penyebaran virus) seperti pada penyebaran virus komputer dan patologi. Dapat dengan cara lisan yaitu menjadikannya sebagai bahan perbincangan dalam berbagai forum komunitas sosial atau disampaikan dengan menggunakan tekhnologi tinggi yaitu melalui jaringan Internet (blog, frindster, facebook, forum, chatting, email, dll) .


Produk Viral Marketing dapat berbentuk :

- Video klip
- Permainan interaktif Flash
- Advergames
- Ebooks
- Brandable perangkat lunak
- Gambar
- Pesan teks dll


Tujuan dari pemasar adalah menyebarkan program pemasaran viral pada masyarakat luas pada jaringan yang lebih luas lagi sehingga pesan viral (Pesan Berantai) ini tersebar dan memjadi pembicaraan semua orang kemudian mengarahkan mereka untuk segera membeli, menggunakan atau menjadikan produk yang dipromosikan sebagai referensi utama suatu komunitas.

Istilah "viral marketing" juga kadang digunakan untuk kampanye pemasaran terselubung dengan media online dan offline untuk menciptakan kesan yang spontan dari mulut ke mulut. Misalnya dengan cara membagikan ebook gratis (berisi review atau tips-tips menarik) yang didalamnya telah tertanam alamat link (promosi terselubung) untuk di kunjungi maka ebook itu akan segera tersebar luas dengan cepat seperti virus. (Ya, iyalaaahh gratissss.... mau..mau...maaauu.... silahkan ....)

How to Make Money While You Sleep Almost Instantly Using Pay Per Click Advertising

by Dale Green

How to make money with PPC is not that easy. However, there are a lot of ways on how you can do things right and allow the ads to drive traffic and convert Internet visitors to be your customers. Here are some of them.
For some, they may be annoying, but for those who are managing businesses, they can be a way of how to make money. Pay per click advertising still remains to be one of the most effective marketing methods because of their excellent conversion rates and their very wide coverage. What's more, you can run the campaign for months, and they can show up even when you're not online or sleeping.

However, how to make money out of this will never be that easy. There are a number of factors that you have to think of. What's more, if you do it the wrong way, pay per click advertising may be one of your worst marketing campaigns. To make it successful, learn to follow these tips:

(1). Choose a noncompetitive keyword. With PPC advertising, it's all about keywords. These are the words and phrases used by Internet users to look for information or even a product. Choosing general and highly competitive keywords means that you're up against thousands of other PPC advertisers, which then lessens your chances of getting clicked. How to make money with PPC therefore means opting for those that are descriptive of the business that you're in. For example, you will have greater chances of getting customers when your keyword is "antique China vases" rather than "vases" only. You can make use of keyword suggestion tools for this.

(2). Develop your landing page comprehensively. How to make money in PPC also lies on your landing page. This is not necessarily the homepage but the one the visitor sees right after he clicks on your ad. This is crucial since it should be the one that converts an Internet user to a customer. First, make sure the links work. Second, talk more about the benefits of the product or service rather than about the features. After all, potential customers will always be asking about "What's in it for me?"

(3). Offer discounts and freebies. Create come-ons for your potential customers. Surely, nobody doesn't want to let go of free reports or e-books, as well as discounts. These can push them to click on your ad and at least give your website a chance. However, you have to ensure that you're definitely running these promotions, not trying to deceive them. If you do, you will lose a potential customer and damage your reputation.

(4). Monitor the campaign. Whether you like it or not, some ads work, and some don't. But you will never know it unless you keep tabs on their progress. A lot of the PPC tools will permit you to monitor each of your campaigns, helping you determine which of the ads are getting high conversion rates and which ones are weak. So you can achieve your goal on how to make money, you can choose to improve or remove those poor PPC marketing campaigns.

How to make money with PPC requires patience, creativity, research, and marketing skills. Nevertheless, it can be very rewarding, so it's always good to take the time and get it right?

Blog Saya Berat Saat Di Loading?

Mungkin pertanyaan ini banyak di tanyakan oleh para pemula yang baru berkecimpung di dunia web atau blog, kenapa blog saya sangat berat saat di loading? kenapa blog orang lain sangat ringan untuk di loading? pertanyaan yang wajar dan jangan di anggap lucu, karena ketidak tahuan adalah bukanlah sesuatu yang lucu dan itu tidak patut untuk kita tertawakan.

Kecepatan akses suatu web atau blog sangatlah penting untuk di perhitungkan oleh para pemilik web atau blog, karena ini sangatlah berpengaruh terhadap jumlah traffik atau kunjungan. Blog yang sangat susah untuk di akses atau di load akan membuat pengunjung merasa sangat jengkel dan mengurungkan niatnya untuk melihat blog anda dan jangan harap mereka akan berkunjung balik di lain waktu.

Faktor apa saja yang bisa membuat blog kita sangat berat untuk di loading? berikut adalah faktor-faktor yang bisa membuat blog anda sangat susah untuk di loading :


File Flash (swf)

File flash (swf) adalah file yang sangat berat untuk di loading, maka janganlah terlalu banyak memasang file ini pada halaman depan (Front page) blog anda. Apakah di blogger bisa untuk memasang gambar dalam bentuk flash? tentu saja bisa, namun tidak secara langsung di upload ke blogger akan tetapi di upload ke server lain lalu di panggil oleh kode tertentu agar bisa di tampilkan di halaman blog.

Selain itu, banyak widget-widget gratisan juga memakai file flash. Contoh dulu kang Rohman pernah menerangkan bagaimana membuat Label Bentuk Animasi di Blog, Membuat foto animasi, Pasang Jam di Sidebar, dan lain sebagainya. Widget-widget tersebut di buat dalam bentuk file flash sehingga sangat berpotensi untuk memperberat blog anda.


Java Script

Tidak di sangkal bahwa dengan Java Script kita bisa menciptakan berbagai efek ataupun fungsi yang sangat menarik untuk blog, baik itu script yang sengaja kita buat sendiri ataupun script gratisan yang banyak terdapat di internet. Namun tahukah anda bahwa Java Script sangat berat untuk di loading, Jadi jika anda memasang banyak javascript pada blog anda, maka resiko yang di tanggung adalah blog anda akan sangat berat dan berpotensi untuk di tinggalkan oleh pengunjung.


Gambar

Memasang banyak gambar ataupun memasang gambar yang berkapasitas besar akan sangat membebani akses blog anda, pasanglah gambar sewajarnya saja. Gunakan tool yang bisa mengkompresi gambar yang akan di tampilkan di blog sehingga file nya menjadi kecil. memasang widget-widget yang berbentuk gambar seperti widget follower, mybloglog serta widget-widget gambar lainnya adalah sangat memberatkan blog. pemasangan banner di bagian atas blog seperti banner iklan kang Rohman adalah salah satu contoh yang bisa membuat blog menjadi berat.


Template Blog

Pemilihan template juga sangat berpengaruh, banyak template terbuat dari gambar sebagai bacckground atau pemasangan CSS yang sangat besar, sehingga sangat berat ketika di gunakan.


Menampilkan Banyak Posting

Menampilkan banyak posting di halaman depan adalah salah satu pemberi beban untuk blog kita. Untuk mengatasinya, atur jumlah posting dalam jumlah yang tidak terlalu banyak.

Dan masih banyak lagi faktor yang bisa membuat loading blog anda berat. lalu bagaimana cara menanggulanginya? tentu saja anda harus pandai memilah dan memilih, mana yang perlu untuk di pasang di blog anda. Jangan semua panduan di internet anda terapkan, pilih yang dianggap sangat perlu untuk di pakai. So try it and be wise, OK.

How to Make your Online Advertising Business Produce Money over and over

by Samantha Milner

The success or failure of your Internet marketing business depends largely on the Internet users. If they are interested on the products and services that you are offering for sale, definitely you can expect hundreds to thousands of dollars in revenues from your online business. On the other hand, if they are just too lazy to hear what you want to say and what you are offering, better shut down your personal computer unit and find some other ways of earning money.


As an Internet marketer, you do not want the second scenario to happen to your Internet marketing career. To be the "exception to the rule", you must attract more web visitors to your site and turn them into long-term clients and build a loyal clientele base. Once you have satisfied such requirements, expect that there is something in return--positive returns, to be specific.


How will you say to Internet users that you need them to keep your online business alive? In fact, you need not to tell them straight to the point that you badly need them. All you need is a clever mind and some online advertising to get them without making them realize that you badly need them.


There are various online advertising methods on the Internet and each method has their product that works better on specific industries. There are huge numbers of individuals and companies operating online who wants to advertise what they have to offer, and there are also huge numbers of individuals and companies on the Internet who are willing to provide some advertising spaces. However, considering that the online advertising market is quite large, it will be inefficient for the advertisers as well as the providers of these online advertising spaces to individually meet and talk about the terms of conditions of advertising.


The individual or company who wish to advertise will certainly contact an online-based advertising company that are willing to provide the space that the advertiser needs as well as distribute their advertisements to different venues on the Internet at the same time.


The more benefits are now towards the online advertising firm. And you are considering an online advertising business.


But before you go, there are several things you need to consider first.


Start to gather a collection of websites or online companies that are willing to place advertisements on their sites. Select sites that are getting high web traffic every month. Once you have gathered advertising site venues, you may now start soliciting advertising clients. These advertisers will pay a certain amount of money that will commensurate with the exposure of their products or services on your advertising site venues. For instance, if you have contracted with 20 websites that are receiving an average of 200,000 web visitors every month, you can sell as much as 2,000,000 advertising exposures every month on each advertiser. In case that you have negotiated around 20 advertising venues on each website, you can sell an equivalent of 20 advertising clients with 2,000,000 advertising exposures every month. If an advertiser only pays for 1,000,000 advertising exposures, you can still sell the remaining 1,000,000 advertising exposures for a total of 11 advertising clients.


Now, what are the types of online advertising that you can offer? Here are some of the offerings that you can sell to individuals or companies who wish to advertise their products or services on the Internet.

(1). Banner ads - these ads are typically pictorial ads that are commonly viewed on high-traffic sites and includes a hyperlink back to the advertiser's own site. These are priced according to the number of ads shown. For instance, banner ads can be sold in lots of 250,000 impressions each.

(2). Sponsorship ads - these ads are commonly larger than banner ads, which sometimes contain considerable amount of text. These are typically placed on high-traffic areas such as ezines or online newsletters. It is priced according to the number of readers of the newsletter or publication in which the ad is placed.

(3). Pay per click (PPC) ads - these ads are priced according to the number of clicks generated through site visitors, These are commonly text ads, though there are PPC ads that are pictorial-based.


Starting your own online advertising business is another opportunity of earning more money on the Internet marketing industry.

How to make money online with PTC

by RJM

How to make money online
How to make money online is a search phrase that thousands of people type into their search engine each day, and if you are anything like me, then you've read a whole lot of different ways how to make money online.

How do you make money online then? There are a few ways to make money straight away, but the way I'm going to explain here is PTC.(Paid to click)

You may or may not have heard of PTC, or even read articles about how people make money online using it. The truth is you're not going to make a small fortune with it unless 1. You sign up to every PTC site and click every ad or 2. Refer every single person you possibly can to sign up to the sites you're registered with, and click the ads. The second option being the better one, unless you have got time to click ads all day!.


What is PTC?

PTC sites have got paid advertisements on them that pay you $0.01c for you to view them for 30 seconds. You can only view one ad at a time, and you must wait for the counter to count down 30 seconds before your PTC account gets credited.

If you refer someone, anyone as long as it's not the same computer as yours, and then your account gets credited $0.01c for every ad they click on as well. So the more sites you join, and the more people you refer, the more money you make.


How to make money online with PTC :

(1). Firstly if you haven't started an Alertpay or PayPal account then sign up for one of those, I prefer AlertPay as not every site uses PayPal.

(2). Sign up to a PTC site. I would start with 5-10 different PTC sites(below is a list of 8 I recommend), depending on how much time you have to click on the ads. There are usually 5-13 different ads to click on each different site, with 30 seconds per ad, it does add up.

(3). Click on all the ads that are available. Remember you can only click on 1 PTC ad at a time, or you won't get credited to your account. It's good to read through some of the ads for future marketing tips.

(4). Refer people to the PTC sites that you have joined. You can do this many ways, start a blog, write articles, send emails to friends, use comments on different blogs and sites, word of mouth! Where ever you think people may want to do this as well, give it a go. Start small and grow and grow and grow. This is how you make money online with PTC, refer refer refer.


Here are 8 PTC sites that I recommend :

(1). Occupex
(2). Bux.to
(3). Perfextbux
(4). Ppclix
(5). Clickmybux
(6). Earn3
(7). Buxmatrix
(8). Performancebux

That's how you make money online with PTC sites. Good luck , and remember the more people you refer, the more money you get credited to you account.

Make Money In 15 Minutes!? Is It Real?

by Primoz

Never has there been a time when someone sits down and shows you step by step blueprints to make real money on the internet.

Furthermore, no one in the right frame of mind will show you a way to do it WITHOUT spending a single penny on advertising.


You see, the Internet is huge and millions come online to have a crack at it. Majority (99.9%) just don't have a clue where to start. They attempt some techniques exposed by well known internet marketing gurus, but never really make some serious money.


Well the thing is, the owner of Google Snatch is NOT a guru. Simple down to earth guy who just knows what to do to make money online! Best of all are the techniques he uses to dominate not only a niche market but also markets that have thousands of competitors owned and run by large corporations.

He implements his own techniques and actually, in one word, hammers his competition. No Google Adwords to cheat, as each click costs an expensive $100. As at the end of the day, the bigger the market, the bigger the competition, so more spending power!


Now millions are afraid to compete in big markets because the people (companies) who have the money CAN demolish their competitors. But what he tells you is, BIG companies have more money than sense. There is no need to spend thousands of dollars to make money online. If you have the right formula, (The FREE Click Formula) then why waste money on paid clicks.


The problem with paid advertising, whether its Google, Yahoo or MSN, you can get high placements almost instantly, but whose clicking on your ads? I mean whose accumulating a large bill at the end of the month for you? Your competitors? Happy clickers? Or actual real customers?


The work involved is just as much as setting up a Google Adwords campaign. Since the Google Slap came to the scene, it was made clear that for each keyword you bid on it requires a unique page, as a must, to achieve good popularity ranking.


So the idea is simple, yet thousands think, actually MILLIONS think, Adwords is quicker? It takes 15 minutes for the world to see your listing! But in order to get to those 15 minutes, it takes the same time to find the keywords, create the landing page and to get the campaign on its feet. Overall you could say it takes maybe 60 to 90 minutes, maybe more.


Once this is setup, people will actually start seeing your ads AFTER 90 minutes as the work needs to be done beforehand.


Now for the alternative, inside Google Snatch! It takes 60 minutes for the world to see your ad, PLUS you don't pay a single cent on a click. Yet to that matter never will you ever again pay for a click once you discovered these techniques. So this you could say is the REAL get your Google ads for free!


Never pay for Google ads ever again and let the world see your site within 60 minutes!
