Link Building On A Shoestring Budget + Free List of Sites

Hey Hey guys! Today  I wanted to quickly share with you a quick way that you can build high quality links to your money sites and videos if you are on a budget and have some time on your hands. I remember when I first got started building niche sites I did ALL the link building myself, even the account creation.

I had a very small budget but I had a lot of time to be able to build links and get my websites ranked. Once my sites started ranking and started to bring in an income I reinvested that money into buying tools that helped automate what I was doing manually.

With that being said here is a quick video outlining how you can build links on a shoe string budget.

How To Build Links on A Budget:

Link Building in 5 Easy Steps:

1. Download the list of 250+ Web 2.0 Sites Here
2. Create A Spin Rewriter Account Here
3. Spin your article and post to the Web 2.0 Site with your links and video included (10-15 per week)
4. Submit your URL’s to be bookmarked on Social Monkee for further indexing
5. Ping Your URL’s on BulkPing.com

That is pretty much it for today. If you are on a shoe string budget and need a way to build links that get your websites or videos ranked follow the strategy outlined above.

To Your SEO Success,

Easy Video Suite Review

Hey Hey Guys!

I am Excited to finally be able to share with you my Easy Video Suite Review. After waiting over a year to get my hands on this piece of software the wait was DEFINITELY worth it. I am more then happy with my Easy Video Suiteinvestment and am having a blast playing with this new piece of technology.

I feel like I’m a kid at a candy store. Most of you know that I’m a HUGE video marketer so getting my hands on new software is very exciting. In the next few paragraphs I plan on sharing with you a full review of Easy Video Suite and the cool features I’ve discovered so far.

I actually created 2 videos which I will post below:

Part 2: 

Easy Video Suite Benefits:

The great thing about Easy Video Suite is how quickly I was able to get it up and running. From the moment I purchased to the moment I was able to create my first video was all of about 10 minutes. The members area is extremely easy to navigate, there are tutorial videos for every step and nothing was too hard to understand.

There are 2 ways that you can install Easy Video Suite. The quick and easy way is to install it within the members area and create a sub domain on their website evsuite.com and have them host your videos. I personally created my sub domain as zamurai.evsuite.com.

For those of you who are more advanced you can install Easy Video Suite on your own server via FTP. They also provide a step-by-step tutorial that shows you how exactly how to get it installed on your server. I should have it up and running on this domain within the next hour or so.

Easy Video Suite Desktop App:

Easy Video Suite comes with a desktop application which is what is going to allow you to create new videos as well as upload existing videos into your dashboard or Youtube whichever you prefer. You can create screen cast videos or Face videos. A pretty cool feature I noticed is if you tick on the “save a local copy of your videos” it simultaneously saves it into your EVS dashboard as well as your hard drive. I found the desktop app extremely easy to install and get up and running.

Not only can you create videos but you can easily drag and drop videos into the app to upload them into your dashboard. Here is what the Desktop app looks like:

Easy Video Suite Features:

Now I haven’t had a chance to play with all the features just yet but just a few that I noticed from playing with it after buying are:

  • Being Able To Create and Upload Videos from one central application
  • Being able to save a copy into my dashboard and my hard drive.
  • Being able to upload direct to Youtube in HD quality.
  • The Desktop app coverts the video automatically into several different formats so your videos are playable on all devices.
  • Being able to style the video with things like prebuilt players, shadows, backgrounds etc
  • Being able to easily add an intro an outro snippets to your videos once uploaded.
  • Being able to add an optin form or buy button in the middle of your video
  • Being able to redirect your viewers anywhere you want once the video is done.
  • Being able to quickly create a page from your video and have it online within minutes.
  • Being able to style the page to your liking with an easy drag and drop interface.
  • Being able to add meta information to the page to make it SEO friendly.
  • and a TON more that I have yet to play with….

Those are just a few that I use and tested it out when I got access to my account. I am really looking forward to continuing to use this software and really put it through the test.

The Page I created:

As I mentioned in the feature list above you are able to easily create and style a page for your videos with a simple drag and drop editor. I created the page below in about 10 minutes. Everything was really easy to move around, add to the page, remove from the page, etc.

You can view the page I made here<<<

Do I recommend Easy Video Suite?

ABSOLUTELY! I rarely get excited for new pieces of software but Easy Video Suite is definitely one of those product that comes around only a couple times a year that I truly get excited for. If you are looking to do anything with video marketing in 2013 this is a tool you want to get your hands on.

If you are looking for my Easy Video Suite Bonus then prepare to get even more excited 🙂

I have put together a great bonus that compliments Easy Video Suite almost like a glove. Trust me I’ve looked around at other bonuses and a lot of them are just a CRAP load of random products just put together that have NOTHING to do with video marketing and are really not going to do you any good.

When looking for the best bonus you want to make sure that the bonuses offered are actually going to help you and work together with the product or service you are buying. So I have personally put together the following bonus:

Easy Video Suite Bonus:

=====================================
EVS + ZCTA + ZVG = Formula for Video Success!
=====================================

==========
Bonus #1.
==========

The first amazing bonus is my unreleased “Zamurai CTA Bundle” product.

(CTA = Call To Action)

This is a bundle of over 8 high quality bumper videos that you can add to the beginning and end of your videos to SKYROCKET the clicks to your affiliate links or link to your website.

I’ve been personally using these high quality CTA’s with some great results All you have to do is add it to the beginning and end of your video so you can really “sell the click” and drive people wherever you want.

It’s almost irrestible for your viewers to NOT click the links since it’s human nature to follow one’s eye’s to see what they are looking at 🙂 pretty genius huh?

=========
Bonus #2:
=========

It did take me quite a bit of time and $ to put together those CTA bumper videos since I not only had to first buy the stock images which are $10 a piece….

…but I then had to put together the Power Point slides, Record the PowerPoint, edit the video in iMovie, add sound effects and finally produce the video.

So what I am going to do for you is throw in ALL the powerpoint slides, stock images and where to get sounds effects for FREE with this bonus.

Keep in mind these are all high quality stock images that you could not get for less then $10 a piece and I have over 18 of them to send your way 🙂

This is going to allow you to edit the CTA bumper power point slides to your liking and even create your own.

I even put together a video of how to create your own CTA bumper videos with the slides and images to make it easier for you.

========
Bonus #3
========

My 3rd Bonus is yet another JUICY strategy that is going to help you make high quality videos that sell.

Easy Video Suite is the Tool that you are going to use to make videos and my “Zamurai Video Guide” is going to teach you how to make great videos that offer good content but don’t ramble on FOREVER.

Most new video marketers struggle to make proper videos because they don’t really know how to start or finish a video properly which usually causes them to ramble on forever, or having to record a video over and over because it just doesn’t seem right.

Has this ever happen to you?

Well with my Zamurai Video Guide you are going to learn a simple yet POWERFUL 3 Step formula to use for EVERY single video you ever make to make sure you get your message across as effective as possible.

And I’m not only talking about screencast videos this formula works for powerpoint videos, video sales letters, just about any kind of video you can make online.

So you have:

=====================================
EVS + ZCTA + ZVG = Formula for Video Success!
=====================================

I don’t think it can get any better then this. 🙂

Or maybe it can…

I will also let you choose any one of my other products (if you don’t already own them) 100% Free.

There is:

My Tube Takeover Formula
My Tube Sniper Pro Research Software
My Tube Sniper Rank Tracker
My Tube Sniper Suite

I am really looking forward to sending you my bonus once you purchase EVS.

You have the best of both worlds

=====================================
EVS + ZCTA + ZVG = Formula for Video Success!
=====================================

So here’s the deal…

To get my EasyVideoSuite bonus, this is what you do:

#1 Get EasyVideoSuite through me using this link: http://zamuraiblogger.com/go/evs

#2 Forward your Clickbank receipt to me support@zamuraiblogger.com

I’ll send you the download link for my bonus shortly thereafter.

Any questions? Leave them below.

To Your Video Marketing Success,

signature

P.S. Remember, not only will you have the most powerful video marketing software available in EasyVideoSuite…

(That’s going to save you a ton of time and send your profits through the roof)

…You’ll also have the perfect bonus..

=====================================
EVS + ZCTA + ZVG = Formula for Video Success!
=====================================

…if you get it through my link right now.

[Case Study] 455 New Subscribers Plus a Look Inside a $300 Email Campaign

Hey Hey guys!

I’m back with yet another update video in my journey to 10,000 subscribers by December 31st. It has been a few weeks since my last update and I want to apologize for that. I’ve been quite busy working on a new software launch that’s coming out on December 21st. The great thing about this launch is that it’s a partnership between myself and a gentlemen named Andrew Naser who I actually met as a result of him reading my updates here on my blog.

So you just never know what can happen with the power of blogging!

This launch however has set me back in my 10k goal a bit but I’m not at all concerned because not only do I enjoy putting out AWESOME products it adds a HUGE surge of buyers to my list in a short period of time. Buyer subscribers are definitely more valuable then any other kind of subscriber you can have so I’m definitely looking forward to it.

So let’s move on to today’s update video. Today I have  a few cool things to share with you on what I’ve been doing to build my list.

What the video below:

455 New Subscribers + Email Campaign Case Study

[box type=”important”]CTA Sidekick Is still Available for the next few days. This is a Powerful WordPress Plugins That Allows you to Add High Converting Optin Forms To Your Blog in Just A Few Mintues. Click Here To Check it out[/box]

Resources Mentioned in The Video:

1. Warrior Plus: If you have a list and would like to add some additional income promoting to your business promoting WSO’s is a great place to find great products at great prices.

2. JVZOO: JVZOO is yet another WSO network where you can find some more great WSO’s to sell. You can also use both Warrior+ and JVZOO to sell your own products.

3. Aweber: I use Aweber as my preferred autoresponder. They are extremely affordable and easy to use.

4. Tube Takeover Formula: This is my video marketing course that I use to make passive income as well as build my list as as I mention in the video. I had a video in about position 5 sending me 1-2 subscribers a day. I was able to get the video bumped up to position #3 which is now above the fold and is now bringing me 4-5 subscribers a day.

5. Free Video Marketing Report: This is the free video marketing report I use to build my list and send people through my Auto Responder funnel.

In this update video I talk about how in a first initial test I got more subscribers from posting a FREE WSO at $40 then paying to have a benner ad at $100. Now I do need to test a few things out to see if I can get the same results again. What I want to test now is sending the banner traffic to the Free WSO thread FIRST and from the WSO thread to the squeeze page. Previously I just linked from the banner to the squeeze page.

I also did an ad swap with the lovely Ti Roberts from TiRoberts.com . Ti Roberts is an up and coming traffic generation queen. She has some great traffic tips and tricks up her sleeve so it was a no brainer to ask her if she would be open to doing an ad swap.

This is another sign of just how powerful a blog can be because I first met Ti when she commented on this Update video here . From there I popped over to her blog and saw she had some great content. So I messaged her on Facebook and it’s all history from there.

Marketing Takeaway:

Get out there and start blogging and building relationships. There are two examples in this one article of how one simple blog can bring people together from all over the world. I would have never imagined I would be partnering up with someone from Egypt or doing an ad swap with Ti Roberts had I not started blogging here.

The Anatomy of A “Guru” Type Squeeze Page Funnel

Hey Hey!

Today I have a pretty cool video to share with you. I have been getting several questions in my 10k Subscriber Challenge about how I have my funnel setup and how my follow up sequence is. So I decided to put together a video and show you a sneak peak of the entire backend of my business.

[box type=”important”]In the video below I mention that I use OptimizePress as my preferred WordPress theme for creating high converting squeeze pages. For some people the $97 price point of OptimizePress may be a little out of budget so for the next few days you can get a very cool WordPress Plugin which is being sold as a Dimesale over at the FSO forum. This cool little plugin works very similar to OptimizePress in the sense that everything is “click to activate” etc. Check it out here << You can also see a demo video below
[/box]

Watch The Demo Video Below:

>>>Click Here To Pick Up A Copy of Squeeze Optimizer<<<<

Now that we got that out of the way let’s jump into my squeeze page funnel. This is the exact funnel that has been used and will continue to be used by all the big name Guru’s online who have built a massive business and following.

A Look At My Squeeze Page Funnel:

 That breaks down my squeeze page funnel as well as my follow up sequence which helps to convert those subscribers into buyers via my 7 day Follow up sequence. As I mentioned before this is the exact funnel that was taught to me when I first got started online and I continue to use it till this day. This funnel works because it allows you to lead with value and open up the trust barrier.

Here is how my funnel looks like in simple image format:

 

Resources Mentioned in The Video:

1. OptimizePress WordPress Theme: This is the theme that I use to create all of my squeeze pages, sales pages, and membership sites. It’s really an all in one WordPress theme for running a successful online business. If you can’t afford OptimizePress but still want to create professional Squeeze Pages you can get Squeeze Optimizer at a Dimesale for the next few days.

2. Qody’s Redirector: This cool little plugin allows me to create a redirect on any page of my site without an exit pop up that most redirect plugins use. This plugin automatically redirects visitors once their mouse starts moving towards the “x” in their browser. I use this on my Thank You Page a.k.a OTO page to redirect visitors to the salespage.

That is it for this weeks update my friend. I am loving the feedback I am getting on my list building series and as always if you have any questions at all please feel free to leave them below.

292 Subscribers in 9 Days – Banner Ads + Youtube Marketing

Hey Hey!

I’m back with update video #3. Over the last 10 days or so there have been some great list building going on and I’m happy to report that I have broken the 6,000 subscribers mark! In this update you will learn a little bit about how I used banner ads, video marketing and a couple more solo ads to add an additional 292 subscribers to my list.

I’ve also been using my Free Video Marketing Report a bit more as a list building tool since I’ve been noticing that my aweber funnel for my Youtube Training has been converting a bit higher then the funnel I have set up for my Free WordPress Training.

So let’s go ahead and jump into this bad boy. This video will run for about 9 minutes but it’s well worth every second 🙂

292 Subscribers Update Video:

Resources Mentioned in The Video:

1. My Video Marketing Training: Learn my exact formula that I use to quickly rank simple Youtube Videos that bring me optins and sales on a daily basis.

2. Warrior Forum Banner Advertising Page: If you have an account on the Warrior Forum this is where you go to upload a banner. It costs $100 for a 24 hour slot. I got 42 freebie optins and 4 buyer optins. I spent $100 and made about $40 so my total investment was $60.

I am going to test out putting up a FREE WSO with my video marketing report since I’ve used my WordPress training as a FREE WSO before and received about the same amount of optins and posting a FREE WSO only costs $40 instead of $100.

3. Warrior forum Banner Advertising Guidelines: Before you upload a banner be sure to read and follow EACH AND EVERY guideline they have in place. Your banner WILL NOT get approved if you do not follow all of their guidelines.

4. Pixlr Editor: I did not mention this in the video but if you do not have an image editor/creator you can use this online based tool to make simple banners. (no software to download)

I just want to quickly mention as well that I am a huge advocate of reinvesting the income from my list building efforts back into my business to grow my list faster. In my last update I mentioned that the guest article that was published on Kim Roach’s Blog resulted in about 12 sales or so.

In total it’s been well over $200 in profit that I made from that article which I used to purchase the banner ad. The banner ad made about $40 which I’m going to reinvest yet again along with the other income I made from the article. Once you have a proven funnel you can easily pour money into advertising and continue recycling the income your funnel produces to buy more advertising.

That is it for this weeks update! I hope you found it useful. Also stay tuned for my next article which is going to break down exactly how I have my funnel set up from squeeze page to autoresponder sequence.

158 Subscribers in 7 Days – Using FREE Strategies

Hey Hey!

I’m back with update video #2. This update is quite exciting since I focused on some more free strategies this past week. Although I did get a lot less subscribers this week then Update video #1 I got a lot more quality subscribers this week.

I firmly believe that there are different levels to the quality of the subscriber you are getting depending where that person is coming from. Of course a buyer subscriber is way at the top. One buyer subscriber can easily be worth 10 times a free subscriber.

Although I did get quite a bit of subscribers from Solo ads in the first week you have to keep in mind that solo ad vendors mail their list anywhere from 3-6 times per day with a TON of different offers. So a subscriber from a solo ad can easily be on 10-15 other lists, if not more. So it becomes a little harder to convert those people into buyers, fans, etc. But solo ads are still a GREAT and FAST way to add subscribers to your list.

Let’s now jump into Update Video #2:

158 Subscribers in 7 Days:

Resources Mentioned in The Video:

1. Kim Roach’s Traffic Dashboard Training: I can’t recommend her training enough. A lot of the strategies I am using in my business are a direct result of what I’ve learned in Kim’s training. She is a traffic generating machine!

2. How I Sold 450 Copies of My First Product: This is the guest post that Kim published on her blog which has resulted in some really amazing results. In the update video I mentioned I got about 12 buyers on my list from that article but as I write this it’s well over 20 buyers and over 80 subscribers through the other links in the article which lead to free offers.

3. Make Money Online Warrior Forum Section: This is a section in the Warrior Forum where you can post links to articles on your blog, free ebooks (with links in the ebook to your product/squeeze page) etc. This is a great strategy for getting some extra subscribers to your list on weekly basis.

That is it for this weeks update. I am definitely going to be doing a lot more guest blogging moving forward as I think it is a truly exceptional way to get high quality subscribers by providing top notch content.

Also as I mentioned in the video, since starting my 10k Subscriber journey I have started to receive a lot more subscribers coming from my blog. So it’s important to keep in mind that if you are getting traffic to your site you definitely want to be capturing some of those visitors with a pop up capture form, sidebar optin, end of post optin etc. I personally use Popup Domination on this blog to capture a good number of leads.

583 Subcribers in 9 Days – Update 1

Hey Guys,

Thank you for joining in on my journey to reach 10,000 subscribers by December 31, 2012. If this is your first time on my blog and you want to know what my 10,000 subscriber journey is you can view post #1 here.

But in short I have set a goal for myself to reach 10,000 subscribers by the end of this year and document my entire journey on a week by week basis. This is the update video number 1 and I will be going over what I’ve done over the last 9 days to get over 583 subscribers.

For some of you this may seem like a lot and for others this may seem like a little. Either way I want you guys to know that just two years ago I knew absolutely nothing about online marketing. I had to go out there become a sponge and learn everything I needed to build a successful business online.

Then from there I took MASSIVE action and I continue to hustle till this day. If you are just getting started online then I want you to know that I’m rooting for you. Wherever you decide to take your business online just make sure you hustle and keep taking action. Also start considering to build an email list of your own.

There are many ways to build an income online but when you are able to build a loyal following, that is when you are building a true business instead of just an income.

With that being said let’s jump into this bad boy:

583 Subscribers in 9 days:

 

So far this past week I invested quite a bit into Solo Ads. If you do not know what solo ads are it’s basically paying another email marketer to email their list about your offer. You can typically find solo ad sellers selling between $15-$200 for 50-500 clicks.

You are basically buying traffic, meaning that you are going to have to make sure your squeeze page is set up correctly so that it converts when the seller starts to send you clicks. Also if you have your funnel set up correctly then you can make money while building your list and then reinvest that money back into buying more solos.

Another source that I used this past week was posting a FREE WSO. A WSO is a known as a Warrior Special Offer. Although I have posted 2 paid products with great results you can also use it to post a free ebook or free video training that you offer for the price of an optin.

Everytime I’ve posted a Free WSO I typically get between 40-60 optins per post. It does cost $40 to post a WSO whether it’s free or paid.

The two offer’s that I’m using to build my list are:

1. My Free WordPress Training

2. My Free Video Marketing Report.

That is pretty much for this weeks update video. If you have any questions at all I would love to hear from you in the comments area below.

This coming week is going to be a very exciting week filled with a few free strategies that I’m using to build my list you do not want to miss out.

A Journey to 10,000 Subscibers <-- Can I make it?

My Journey To 10,000 Subscribers:

Hey guys first off I want to welcome you to my blog and taking the time to either read this or watch the above video. What this post is all about is to invite you on a journey with me to building a successful business online. 

But before I get into what the journey is going to entail I want to take you back and share with you how I got started online. I got started online back in October 2010 and prior to that I knew absolutely NOTHING about online marketing. 

And when I mean nothing I mean absolutely NOTHING! I didn’t know what WordPress was, hosting, c-panel, traffic generation, squeeze pages, sales funnels, SEO, jv’s, affiliates, NOTHING… If you were to look at the dictionary under “Internet Marketing Newbie” You would see my face on there. 

One thing I did know however was that people were making a living online and making a good income. So I made it my personal mission to find out exactly what these people were doing to make all this cash from the internet.

In October of 2010 I purchased a training that cost me $2,000 to get started with and it taught me EVERYTHING that I needed to learn about online marketing. I learned  how to research a niche, how to create a squeeze page, how to drive traffic, how to build a list, how to use an autoresponder , etc. All of the tools and skills to building a successful business online….

…but if I fast forward 2 years, although I’m making a good income online, I find my income being scattered all over the internet from 3 different sources and not really giving 100% of my effort to any one thing. I’m making money from my SEO niche sites, video marketing, from my email list, and as of recently from product creation. Now all of this may sound great and all, I feel like I can be doing a lot more if I just focus my 100% energy on one thing. 

Some of you may relate to this if you find yourself buying product after product, jumping from one project to another, chasing after the shiny objects. That’s how I still feel today since I’m scattered everywhere. I think it’s time to really put my big boy pants on and FOCUS! 

I want to focus my energy on building a true business online instead of just an income. Building an income is great and all but when you can build a true business online that has brand value and a strong loyal following that is when you get into the big leagues. 

So the purpose of this journey is to invite you to join me as I build a true business online. The way that I’m planning to do that is by building a list of loyal subscribers. My goal for the rest of this year is to hit 10,000 subscribers by the end of this year. 

I’m at 5,000 subscribers so far that I’ve built up over the last 2 years but I really want to double that over the next 3 months. Not only that but I plan on sharing EVERYTHING I will be doing to accomplish this goal with you on a weekly basis which is why I am openly inviting you to join me on this journey. 

So If you woud like to join me then I look forward to sharing with you everything I will be doing on a weekly basis to build my subscribers list. If you want to stay up to date with my journey then be sure to subscribe to my list to be notified when a new update is posted. 

To our Mutual Success, 

P.S. I would love to hear from you in the comments area below. Where you’re from? Where you are in your online business? What you are struggling with the most? or anything that you feel like sharing with me..

 

3 Keys to Successful Traffic Buying Anyone Can Apply

Hey guys! It’s been quite a while since I posted an article here on my blog and there’s good reason for that. I was drilling down and really working hard to rank my niche sites and I was actually doing quite well.

I had reached the point where I was getting about 10,000 visitors per month to my various blogs but from one day to the next and the latest Google Penguin Update I lost 90% of my traffic.

Now everyone is really riding the “What is Google Penguin” train right now and Google isn’t really going to go into detail about who the update was really targeting but I know I had the BEST content in my various niches as I ALWAYS put content and user experience over rankings. Yet my sites still got hit.

But hey that’s business and at the end of the day Google can do what ever they want to do. Instead of rolling in my own pity I decided to do something about it and restructure by business. I have now moved on to paid traffic and I do not know why I didn’t just start there from the beginning.

It’s an undeniable fact that buying your traffic is one of the FASTEST ways to get traffic to your offers. Whether it’s through pay per click, cost per view, banner buys, or social media, putting money down and buying your traffic can bring you results faster than just about any method out there.

The problem is, most people have no idea how to do it, and what the key factors are for a successful campaign I know I didn’t before coming across Chad Hamzeh and his Traffic Blackbook Training.

In this article, I’m going to teach you the 3 things to consistently apply if you want to have any chance of success with converting your traffic into sales.

1. Target a Specific Market


Too often, marketers start their campaigns with the wrong questions. They ask themselves, “What offer has the highest payout”, or “How much money can I make promoting this?”. They tend to forget that they’re marketing to actual PEOPLE.

The first step is to ask yourself, “who am I marketing to?”. Better yet, “who is my prospect, and what do they want?” Create a really in depth image of who your customer is, what are their fears and desires. What problems do they have, and how can you help solve them?

Find large markets to focus in, and then splinter and segment them down to more manageable parts. Find a segment of a high volume market that has a specific desire and see if you can fulfill that.

The most successful marketers focus on 1 or 2 markets, and 1 or 2 traffic channels. They don’t bounce around hopping (and hoping) from one thing to the next.

2. Market a Converting Offer

Basically, sending a million clicks to an offer no one wants will just cost you money. To find a converting offer, the first thing I recommend for CPA affiliate marketers is to have a good relationship with your affiliate manager. You will want to test and rotate a couple of their top recommendations to see if you can find a winner. (CPA marketing is the model I have decided to target with my paid traffic)

If you’re promoting Clickbank products, stick with the products that you see promoted the most with the highest traffic levels. Use Compete.com to check traffic levels for specific clickbank vendors, and if they have high popularity/gravity as well as high historical traffic, it’s worth rotating and testing that offer.

Now, if you’re a product owner, you’re going to want deeper pockets. Basically, you’re going to need to drive traffic to your offer and test different aspects of your offer. These could be price, trial offers, continuity options, etc.

Again, the offer is very important. If you are sending actual humans to your offer/page and you’re not converting, then it’s the offer and presentation of the offer that is wrong, or you’ve completely targeted the wrong market. You haven’t picked the right offer for that market.

3. Become a Click Through Rate GOD

Your click through rate is the number of times your ad gets clicked vs. the number of times it gets shown. So, if your ad is clicked 4 times out of 100 views (impressions), you have a click through rate of 4%.

The fact is, on almost all paid traffic platforms, having a high click through rate will make your traffic cheaper.

A few good ways to improve your click through rate are:

  • Bid high. For the majority of platforms, with the exception of FB among others, your bid dictates your positioning in the ad queue. Bidding high enough to be shown in good positions (2-3) will get your ads clicked on more often for keywords/placements that sell. But, regardless of the platform, if your bids are way too low, you won’t get very many impressions. This is why I set a lower budget but keep my bids high, it helps me get the data I need without going broke!
  •  Using shock, fear, numbers, and question marks in your ads. You’ve probably all heard this before, but it’s essential. I will show some of my ads in the case study.
  • And of course, focus on selling benefits and not features. Most people don’t care about you or the features of your service, they want to know what’s in it for them.

So there you have it. Master those 3 aspects of your online marketing, especially with paid advertising, and you can begin to write your own ticket (and your own checks!).
