| Marketing on internet is a very effective way to make money online but with all the rules to follow and things you need to avoid doing it can be quite the learning curve to figure it all out. You have to have the where-with-all to stick with it to be successful. If you are to survive in this very competitive internet world you need to find a way to get to the top and then stay there.
Learning how to get to the top can be confusing and intimidating and many people start but let it all get to them and then give up. What they do not realize is that just when they decided to give up is also just about the time they were about to start being successful. It probably would have taken just one more push and they would have started making money and realized all of their dreams.
Your marketing on internet adventure begins with creating a website to promote your product. Once you get your website up and live it doesn't end there, however. Now you need to get people to your website. This is called driving traffic. There are several ways to do this.
The first way is called search engine optimization, or SEO. When you are optimized for the search engines it means that you rank high on the results page. Just where you want to be. Search engine optimization starts with keyword research. You want your million dollar idea to make you a million dollars, right? You need the right keywords to make that happen.
Start by looking for some decent keyword research tools. Lots are free to use and then look for keywords that are targeted to your product. You don't want a keyword that everyone is searching for. That is too much competition and you will not get ranked very high if someone else is already using it. Look for keywords that have a low competition and high searches.
For instance, a keyword that has like 1500 searches a month may not seem like a good one but it also means that there is less competition for this keyword. This may just be your golden nugget. You might have better luck finding what you need, too, if you use long-tailed keywords. A long-tailed keyword is just more than one word used to describe your product.
To have your website completely optimized you need to make sure you have your keywords all in the right places. Places like your URL, in anchor text, as a title of your article and several places in the article itself. Be careful, though, if you use the keyword too much the search engines will consider this "keyword stuffing". You may not get banned but it will not be in your best interest. The search engines will bust you down in the ranks, so just be careful how many times you use your keywords.
This information just scratches the surface of all you need to know for marketing on internet. My advice is to find a good internet marketing course and follow the steps to a tee to get your million dollar idea out to the general public the right way. |
