Learning Internet World with Fun

When you hear the term “internet marketing“, what do you think of?

For many, that term conjures thoughts of websites or spamming or search engines like Google, Yahoo and Bing. For others, it’s all about graphical design, writing fancy code or even affiliate programs. All of those answers correct, but the essence of internet marketing is much simpler.

At its core, internet marketing is about these things:

* Understanding the target market to which the product/service/cause you’re marketing will appeal
* Determining exactly how your target market interacts with the internet
* Positioning your content on the internet to attract the attention of your target market
* Collecting information about your target market (also known as “leads”) for follow-up and conversion into sales
* Design of offers or incentives to induce the desired actions from your leads

Since there is insufficient space in this article to give all of these topics adequate attention, let’s focus on just one specific topic with the realm of internet marketing: Email Marketing.

My best payoff has always come by focusing on permission-based email marketing. Permission-based email marketing refers to the practice of collecting information (including email addresses) from website visitors and communicating with them via e-mail with their direct consent. The “permission” aspect of permission-based email marketing is what separates legitimate email marketers from the spammers that everyone despises.

My love of email marketing is strong for one reason: It works very well. Email marketing has been much like a never-ending goldmine: It enables us to produce income on demand simply by sending a good offer to our list. When you have thousands of loyal subscribers - as we do - and you put a strong and compatible offer in front of them, income becomes nearly automatic.

However, the key to successful email marketing is the development of a legitimate trust relationship with your subscribers. If you opt to send your subscribers a request for purchases every single day, they will likely tire of your badgering and cease reading your emails altogether.

Alternatively, if you take the time to provide good content to your readers on a regular and frequent basis, you’ll discover that your readers take all of your emails far more seriously, and as a result your emails will be opened, read and acted upon with greater frequency. Essentially, email marketing is really an exercise in trust.

While there are many more aspects to internet marketing than just permission-based email marketing, email has definitely been the cornerstone on which our business is built.

Many people have no idea on how to use vision and hope to help them achieve success. They think they understand but the don’t when it comes to being successful. The first thing that people think of when they hear the word vision, they might think of dreams or fantasies. People usually tie the word in with things that they would like to experience. Normally when people describe hope they talk about things they wish for or want to happen for them. Vision and Hope is none of those descriptions motioned earlier. Vision and Hope is a detailed plan to accomplish your goals.

Visions shouldn’t be confused with being dreams and things that are not real. Vision are roads and paths that will help you see your goals. Vision are true. Seeing things happening the way you planned everything is a perfect example of a successful vision. Vision and Hope are well thought out directions and plans to get to your goals. Its just like planning a long trip, you have to check the map and find the directions to take for you to get there.

The point that is being made here is vacations are planned better than some peoples own lives. When people want to go on vacation they have a vision of how they want there vacation to go, why not plan the same way with your own life. They plan how they’re going to get there, they know where they want to do, where there going to stay etc. And but of the time vacations go as planned, becasue they have everything planned out. This is what successful people do with their own lives. From start to finish everything must be planned .

Life must be planned like a trip. Vision and Hope is the game plan to get to your success.

If you’ve dipped so much as a toe into today’s marketing world, you’ve heard about blogs. Actually, if you’ve been on the internet at all lately, you’ve probably seen that blogs are a pretty commonplace occurrence. What you probably are not aware of is how easy it actually is to advertise on the blogosphere.”

What is this thing called a “blog?” What is it for? When did people across the unverse first hear about it? How can you make it work for you in today’s competitive marketplace, especially when you have very little money to spend on your marketing?

The term “weblog” was coined in 1997 by Jorn Barger, editor of RobotWisdom.com, one of the oldest blogs out there. The shortened term “blog” came about in 1999, offered up by one Peter Merholz, editor and author of Peterme.com, a very well-established blog about his life, the web in general, and about everything else under the sun. By July 2006, statistics show that there were 12 million bloggers in the US alone (we’d venture to say there are many times that amount now), and that more than 39% of the US population reads blogs. Again, chances are that now, with the unemployment rate rising and Internet costs getting less expensive, that number is much higher. From the perspective of someone who wants to advertise on blogs, this is a good sign. Statistics also show that by February of 2009 there were 1.5 billion Internet users worldwide.

At nearly 25 percent of the planet's population, that figure is most impressive. With only 80% of the world’s population being literate, you can figure that almost half of the world’s literate population is online. And more and more folks across the globe who use the Internet are choosing to read blogs. What does that mean for you, oh Person Who Wants to Advertise Their Business? It means that you can use this medium to promote your business.

For a minimal cost you can reach millions of people with your brand and your website. And why does it mean that? For as many bloggers as there are, there are that many blog readers.

Many people choose not to put their every thought and opinion onto a website, but that doesn’t mean that they don’t want to read the thoughts and opinions of the people who do. The cool thing about that is that many bloggers are quite influential. When it comes to reviewing products and companies, they do not hold anything back. So how do you get into their sites to advertise your company? One way is to find blogs that fit your product’s image and go through the rigmarole of emailing them individually.

You’d need to offer them free product, send it to them and wait for them to write about you and link to your website. Or, in an easier and possibly more effective move, you can sign up with a service that makes your ads available to bloggers. Because of today’s economic climate, more and more bloggers are trying to make a profit from their blog.

Whether it’s to offset the cost of their domain name and website, or whether they are trying to put food on the table, more and more quality bloggers are putting advertising on their websites. The service they use can be the same service you use to take advantage of some prime internet real estate and reach an audience who may not be looking for your product otherwise.

Blog readers aren’t stupid, but they are partial to the blogs they read the most. And chances are, if the blog is established and has a decent readership, those readers are going to be interested in the ads posted on their favorite blogger’s website. Why shouldn’t that ad be yours?

If you are thinking about creating an internet marketing business, then you need to know that an auto-responder is one of the most important tools that you will use. Configured the right way, it can put your customer relationship building on auto pilot.

Auto-responders have more uses than you may think. They are sometimes used to manage contacts. They can be used for scheduling and managing email blasts. Plus, they can help build and store multiple lists and email sequences while taking away all the tedious busy work of doing it manually.

There are two different types of auto-responders:

• Auto-responders that you pay for monthly
This type is hosted by someone else. This could be the least difficult path to take for someone new. You will have a monthly fee to pay while using this one.

Auto-responders that let you pay by the month also have a negative side. The number of contacts you acquire may be restricted. With the monthly service, you might be on the same IP address as other subscribers. Because of spam rules, your emails, may not always reach their intended contact. In the end, you could pay way more over time with the subscription than just buying the server based auto-responder.

• Auto-responders without the subscription
This type has many more benefits than drawbacks. To begin with, you will not be capped or penalized on the amount of contacts you have. In addition, an individual IP address can save you from dealing with the headache of getting blocked by email providers because of irresponsible spammers. And, you will have absolute control of your lists with this type, unlike the subscription based.

You can expect more options for configuring the server based auto-responders including the option to set how many emails go out per minute. You could still get flagged or blocked by the email providers if you send out too many emails at one time.

You will be able to save time, energy, and money if you know how to choose the right auto-responder. Pick carefully as this amazing tool can help you reap great rewards.
