When it comes to List-building, you might be surprised by how many people start and fail…or fail to even start.

Since I want you to get the BEST results from your efforts, I have put a couple of tips below to help you on your way…Leave your comments below!

Step 1: Driving targeted traffic.

The first step to building a responsive list is to start with a general understanding of what traffic is…what is targeted traffic and how to get it.

Why?

Because, there are a ton of marketers who spend dozens of hours creating a web page, then have no idea how to get visitors to the page, let alone targeted visitors.

They rely upon a scatter-shot approach – send thousands of visitors to the page to get a handful of sign-ups and call it a success. Truthfully, it is a failure to put in so much time and energy for such dismal results.

Consider this: if you want to build a list of people interested in how to lose weight products, it would be a waste of your time and money to advertise in a auto parts magazine.

Now I used a pretty blunt example there but I think you get the point.

Your time and resources would be better spent focusing on getting targeted traffic. General (untargeted) traffic may convert a few people per thousand visitors – if you’re lucky!

But good, targeted traffic can convert 40%, 50% or even more to sign up for your opt-in newsletter.

Step 2: Creating Your High-Converting Squeeze Page

Now the goal is to create a Killer Page that will convert a lot of your visitors into subscribers. I have found that simple works the best. Make sure you give away great content that your subscribers can’t find else where. When you give away crappy information, they will not trust you and you will lose them.

Give your very best content away for free. Now this is very hard at first and you can get better at this as time goes by so please do not get hung up on this and not get started. I stress starting is the hardest part!

There’s a ton more to building your list…more than we could fit into a single blog post.

I really want to hear from you to see why you are struggling or not getting started so that I know what you are missing to help you not only succeed but enjoy the ride to SUCCESS!

People Buy because of Emotion not because of need more then 90 percent of time!

Lets Look at:
Tapping Into Customer Emotions

There are different strategies to do this but lets look at something that will
help the average web owner or affiliate marketer get started.

This the strategy to turn your Internet traffic into paying customers, you want to
concentrate on the person buying, the sales prospect, rather than the product.
Your sales prospects can determine what lures will work best for you in converting
visitors to customers, but for that you really have to understand your demographics.

If you haven’t done some sort of market research in your demographics, you will want
to do that. In face-to-face interactions, the demographics are the people you visit to
market with your products, but online it is not as obvious who is visiting your site and why.

Sorry I have been away for so long been working on projects and want to
get back to sharing information with you to grow your business. Many people
struggle with creating video’s and the cost of the software. Now there are
ways around this and I want to share one of those ways today.

If you visit http://camstudio.org, you can download free screen capture
software called Cam Studio. This works exactly the same as
Camtasia but only has the necessary functions to make a video.
It basically just records whatever is going on in your screen so
that you can create demos that are clear and of good quality.

If there’s something that people are having trouble with online,
perhaps some coding or programming or the installation of
something, you can demonstrate it on CamStudio and put it up on
a forum, upload it to YouTube or your own website.

Today I want to tell you about a marketer that I have been checking out for
a the sake of a better word. John has run a couple training programs that I
have purchased and have been very happy with the training
and John himself.

I try to keep an eye out for quality people in the market place because these days
they seem harder and harder to find.

John training label is Juggernaut Marketing ( The unstoppable moving force).
His first training that I was aware of was Juggernaut SEO and it was not at all the
typical SEO course, in fact it was such a different animal then what I heard before
I do not know how to describe it without taking the punch out of experiencing
it yourself. I loved the course and got much more out of it then I ever thought
I would going in. SEO is not new to me and I thought I knew about 95 percent of
the secrets. Well John’s course was quite a eye opener actually and made me
look at it in an entirely different way.

Next came Article Marketing Juggernaut and I think I was one of the first in,
at least in the top 20 anyway. In my opinion in some ways it was better than the
Juggernaut SEO with kind of the same ways it open my eyes to a different way of
thinking again. Now I am not leading to a affiliate link or anything like that although
John has opened up his affiliate program and I am going to join shortly.

When you see quality online you feel compelled to pass it on
and that is what I am doing because my readers deserve it. I do not have links directly
to his product because I want you to check out his blog and check out the man
behind it first to make sure that you see the VALUE that I do.

After you are there just hit his products tab above and you will see what he has to offer.

If you are into Niche Marketing there is a great report there be sure to pick it up!

So to answer the question that I stated in the title the answer is YES….

One more thing please come back and leave me a comment about the people that
you find provide VALUE to your business and what your needs are to be the SUCCESS that you want to be.

Today I wanted to talk to about the fears we face in life.

These fears can come from all kinds of events that happen to us throughout growing up in whatever circumstances surround us.

Now why I am talking about this? The reason is my daughter Kayla learned the power of overcoming her fears; and the joy of doing so.

To setup the story for you properly we will start at the beginning.  She had outgrown her 4 wheeler and needed a bigger one; and it was either go buy one or fix one of the older ones up in the shop.  We looked at her sisters old one and decided to fix it up and make it Kayla’s.

We wanted it to be a new 4 wheeler to her.  So we started out by taking the body of the old one; and her and I painted it pink…which is Kayla’s favorite color.

Then we got into trying to make it run like new; and I soon realized that I was going to have to rebuild the engine.

The fear set in because I had never done this on my own; and was not even real sure where to start.

I accomplished the task after about a month of waiting for parts; and making a ton of mistakes along the way.  Luckily, I had two friends to lean on for advice.  So I knew what to do; and what not to do. So I did not make a total mess out of it

We got it back together as Kayla; and I made a couple of mistakes, but nothing that couldn’t be tweaked later.

My little girl was ready to roll!  She was very excited; but scared all at the same time!

She loved riding again; and got more skilled; and a little more bold every day.  We told her to make sure not get to confident too fast because it is easy to get hurt.

Then after a couple of months of riding.  She even got the chance to ride her sisters quad on a trip we took.

Think Getting Traffic Is Hard?

Are you feeling like you have a sign on your website that says No Pedestrian Traffic Allowed . We now live in what is known as the information age. People are very thirsty for information.

That means, if you want to increase traffic to your site you need to provide more information. Just think about this for a moment. Over a billion searches a month are done on Google alone for what? INFORMATION!

People want answers to their questions and solutions to their problems. Of course I can go into details about every possible way you can go about increasing traffic to your website, but I will tell you about one way that is extremely effective and powerful.

What I am talking about is article marketing. I am sure you have heard a lot about it but are you using it to its full potential. You see, in my opinion this is probably the easiest and least expensive thing you can do to give your traffic a boost.

No, you don’t need to write 50 articles a week to see significant changes in your traffic. Just one or two articles a day submitted to the right place will make a world of difference.

One of the best things you can do is submit your articles to niche directories.

These are directories that are about one specific topic. Most of these directories get a ton of visitors each and every month. So you can easily benefit from that.

You can also write articles and post them on blogs as a guest blogger. This is a great way to get more traffic as well. A lot of blog owners don’t have time to add new content to their blog on a regular basis. So by finding a few high traffic blogs in your niche, you will be able to increase your traffic very quickly.

Places like this should start getting your juices going

This is just a couple of ways you can increase your traffic on your website.

For the most part it’s about getting a link to your site in as many important places as you can.

That link juice will flow back to you and as a result your traffic will increase.

Why The Microscope?

If you are running a proper business on the internet then you should have that business and traffic it receives under a microscope!

When it comes to checking your search engine ranking, you can go about this one of two ways. You can either do it manually or you can get software and have it down automatically. No matter which way you choose, you should start with about 10 keywords that you will use to see how well your site is ranking.

Picking the right keywords to use is probably the most important part of the whole process. Picking the wrong keywords will not get you the accurate results you are looking for. So here we go. Here is how you can check your search engine ranking.

To check it manually you will first need to go to one of the top search engines. It doesn’t matter which one. However, please note that you will get different results for each. For example, your site might be in spot number 3 on Bing and not show up at all on Google’s first page.

Now once you get to your favorite search engine just type in the first keyword you want to check your rankings for. Once the results appear, look over them quickly to see if your site shows up. For best results check the first 10 pages to see if you show up anywhere in the top 100.

The second way to check your rankings is of course with automated software. There are plenty of free ones on the market, just do a quick Google search and you will get a list of them. Using software to check rankings has quite a few advantages. The biggest advantage is that you can check your rankings on multiple search engines all at once. And usually you can plug in all of your keywords at once which makes the process much quicker.

Most of your SEO traffic will come from Google of course…

No matter which way you choose to do it, make sure you check your rankings on a regular basis. You need to see where that traffic is coming from so that you can apply the 80/20 rule to your hard work. The tool we use for that is Google Analytics because it will actually breakdown your analysis for you and track the keywords that people are using to reach your sites.
