When companies create a community of like-minded customers for people to be a part of, lots of people respond. This can be particularly important if your goal is to keep new prospects interested and current customers coming back. Creating your own community is critically important during slow economic times when every customer counts.
Practical inspirations and ideas for building your website community
Most webmasters know that to get paid by the sites you advertise, you need to find a way to get traffic to your site. This is because a small percentage of people that visit your site will look at your ads, and an even smaller percentage will actually make a purchase. This process takes a lot of time and money.
Most affiliate programs have several forms of advertisement including banners, text links and free content. There is one in particular that is often overlooked. Many companies pay alot more for a webmaster referal than an actual sale. If not a straight forward sum of money, they usually give you a percentage of the refered webmaster’s sales. These seem to be the greatest payoffs because getting another webmaster to advertise for a company that you yourself are advertising is very rare. This is because the type of traffic you are targeting does not include experienced webmasters. You would have to have a website targeted toward this target category.
So how does one get webmaster traffic to their webmaster ads? Well, why not create them?
Experienced webmasters usually pick a niche and stick with it, basing their sites around certain targets. This makes it even more difficult to refer webmasters to a very specific advertising category. The most ideal traffic would be people who want to make money advertising who haven’t chosen a niche in internet marketing. So how does one attract fresh meat? Easy. Offer something for free. Now what can you offer for free in exchange for deciding to be a webmaster and advertise with your companies? Something that they don’t yet have and will most definitly need: a website.
This sounds like alot of trouble to go through, considering the time you’ve put into developing your own site, and the cost of registering a domain name. But think about it. If you can guarantee a refered webmaster in exchange for registering their domain, you’ll be making a huge profit. I register my domains with a registrar that charges $6.95 a month. If you only register their domain for the first month, thats not alot out of your pocket, considering that some affiliate programs I advertise for pay as much as $100 per webmaster referal! That’s a profit of $93 for a single referal.
Now for the site design. All you would have to do would be to create a one page website centered around the product or service you promote. This way, you can attract the customer by not only a very cheap, completely set up site and domain name, but also making money in the process. Most companies provide lots of free selling tools, content, and information. Your customer would have to sign up for the affiliate programs through your code so you can make your money, and they can make theirs. You would not have to download any materials again after this, because you can use the exact same code for the exact same site over and over again.
So basically, you are offering a complete one page web site which requires that they sign up as a webmaster through your codes, which anyone would be willing to do for cheap webpage and the chance to make money. Therefore, you can charge as little as one cent for copying and pasting html code into the free page of the domain’s registrar, and make all your money from the companies you promote.
You could even give this service away for free and make as much money as you want!
The best part about this system is that anyone can be a potential customer, because everyone wants something free and easy, no matter what it is. Advertising a free website will make almost everyone who visits your page make you a large sum of money. Even though this works with any company, I find it is easier to offer adult websites because the payout is usually higher for a webmaster referal. They also offer alot of free content which can be used as the content of the entire site. Using this method, I am finally making all the revenue that these companies promised me.

This newer type of advertising is called consumer generated media where bloggers are paid to write about their opinion on a particular subject or product. Typically the companies allow the blogger to have their own opinion and views when writing about a subject. This has created a stir amongst some blogging elitist as they feel that people are invading their turf. Now advertisers especially those in Europe have a new source from which to advertise. Bloggerwave is just launching and searching for top quality bloggers and advertisers who are looking to maximize their exposure. Join today and get in on the new revolution of internet marketing.
Although it is much less a threat to your computer and information than spyware is, what adware will do is cause pop up banners and advertisements to appear on your computer. These advertisements are displayed on your computer no matter what program you might be using. What the people who place this type of nuisance software on you computer say is that adware advertising helps them to recover costs and allows them to offer you those freebies you want.
What you want to do to stop adware from appearing on your computer is to first run an anti-adware program. Run this program on demand regularly. Along with an anti-adware software program run your regular computer virus scan on demand also.

I recently found out that a friend of mine has an online business that I was not aware of. She said that she sells beads and jewelry accessories. She sent me the link to her site and I gave it a cursory glance. I asked her how business was and she told me that business is ok, but that she would like to have more customers. I then asked her about her marketing and what all it consists of. She told me that she does not bother with it because her business is part of a franchise. I recommended to her that she use some keyword rich articles to improve her search engine results and she told me that she does not want to spend the money on it and that “business will pick up soon”. She had no strategic plan of how her business would “pick up” though.
This is an all too common conversation I have with people when talking to them about search engine optimization through the use of keyword articles. Many of the people I talk to do not really know what search engine optimization is, much less what keyword articles are. Too often I see people who turn to the Internet as a way to make money but do not understand how to go from making a little money to having a booming business. Internet businesses are often times rather easy to operate and generate a good return on investment, but what if those returns on investment could double? Triple? More?
Consider this, when I did a search for “jewelry accessories” on Google there are 23,500,000 results listed at the time of this article writing. After looking at about three pages I stopped looking to see if her website was listed. This is typical for people who do searches for keywords like jewelry accessories. If they do not find what they are looking for in the first two or three pages they will generally stop looking and try other keyword combinations. Most people are not going to sift through 235 sites, much less 23,500,000 listings. The more you sift through the sites the less likely they are to be good matches to what you were looking for anyway.
Keyword articles could improve her search engine results a great deal. Keyword articles most often come up when someone types in “jewelry accessories” and other relevant keyword combinations. Creating articles that provide information, as well as adhere to a keyword density formula, is a major component as to how your website will get ranked higher in the search engine results.
Most often, it does take some time for Google and Yahoo to crawl the keyword articles on your website. You will not see an instant ranking increase the day you post these articles on your website. The major search engine companies prefer to find a website by way of a “natural” search. This is why inbound links to your site are also important. You can set the Revisit meta tag on your sitemap page to better represent the frequency by which you add new content to your site. Try to be accurate with this setting — if you try to cheat the system, the search engine robots will eventually stop coming.
Sites that are discovered by the search engine robots through a natural search — links from another website — will be crawled far sooner than the site whose webmaster uses the Add URL link at the search engine’s main website.
My friend did not realize the potential increase keyword-rich articles could have on her business and did not want to invest the money into developing this content. She was more concerned with the “now” and not the future returns that she could get from investing now in strategic marketing activities. It does cost some money to have keyword densities developed as well as having the articles written. It is also important to know what keywords to use. Keyword combinations can easily be researched on the Internet by using sites such as http://www.wordtracker.com. Once all of this is determined, the articles can be written and then posted to the website. There are many companies, such as http://www.keywordtext.com, that offer these types of services for a reasonable price.
Is the cost of doing this type of marketing worthwhile? Well that is up to the website owner to decide. If the website owner wants to see strong gains in the amount of hits his or her website is getting, then yes. The more people who visit your website, the more likely you are to sell your product or service. You may have a wonderful website and sell a great product or service, but if no one can find it, you are not meeting your potential.
How do you find products or services that you need? Do you look on the Internet? The phone book? Newspapers? Whatever method you choose to do your own shopping, you know that advertising and marketing produces results. You do not purchase goods and services from companies you cannot find. Do yourself and your business a favor and get some keyword articles written, so that you can watch your website traffic and sales soar.
