Streamlining Internet Marketing
With each new Internet Marketing (IM) Guru, there comes a minorevolution in the field. While some only tweak an established rule, others, like Stone Evans of Plug-In-Profits (PIPs), completely revolutionize the industry. With PIPs, Stone Evans has created one of the most complete systemsin IM, allowing even 'newbies' to go into IM and earn a living in a relatively short time. How does he do it? His system is an all-in-one, do-it-yourself IM plan, including: -- A free site -- A list of reliable affiliates -- A Free ezine campaign -- A forum for up-to-the-minute news and professional exchange -- A practical course in the most current marketing techniques -- A practical cost factor While there are some charges involved (start-up costs averageabout $75, with maintenance of less than $25/month), these are minor compared to the potential income. Most of all, thesecosts allow even the most part-time person to have a potentialincome in the industry. Of course, more charges can be added. But, while these are encouraged (sometimes strongly), they are not required. Such extras include upgrading to a professional auto-responder, buying leads and solo ads. But information about all of these fee-based advertising productsare included along with ideas for free advertising. Because oneof the most valuable parts of this system is its "30 Days To Success"portion, which reads like a primer for Internet Marketing itself. "30 Days To Success" explains each portion of internet marketingand includes many valuable links to follow up each portion ofthe instructions. Strictly followed, this 'primer' willvirtually launch a successful IM career on its own. And, because Stone Evans knows how fluid the IM world is, he isconstantly updating and revising the whole PIPs system. In fact,he has recently created a completely revised edition of "30 Days..." which even seasoned PIPs marketers are anxious toread. Other IM Gurus may try to replicate what Stone has done. In fact, it's inevitable others will eventually find some new way to streamline the process even more. But for now few (if any) systems are as complete and offer as much for those interestedin starting-up an online business.--mo Marige O'Brien has worked as a writer, web designer and, most recently, internet marketer for the last 10 years.

Internet Marketing Strategy: Online Joint Venture Ideas To Increase Your Business A joint venture is when two or more businesses join together to work on a project for a set period of time. Yanik Silver Asked Some Questions That Peaked My Curiosity It's so simple! I wish I'd discovered it a year ago! Building An Effective Banner Campaign Banner advertising can dramatically help you increase traffic to your web site. Banner advertising can be a very cost effective marketing solution and can help you to gain access to millions of internet users. It can also prove to be a huge waste of time, even creating a net loss rather than increasing your bottom line. So we'll try to guide you onto the path to true results and a very successful Internet Marketing campaign using banner ads.First things first: What's it going to cost you? Assuming you're going to design and building your own banners, you can still loose money on the cost of advertising if you're not careful. Work out the estimated cost of each banner advertising campaign:Cost-per-Visitor: If you pay $10 per thousand impressions ($10/CPM), and you get a 2.0% click-through (20 visitors), your cost-per-visitor is $.50 ($10 per 20 visitors).Cost-per-Sale: Now you know about what you're going to pay per visitor. So what does that amount to per sale? Well, if 1 in every 20 visitors buys your product, your cost per sale is $10.00.Total Sale Amount : $9.95 USD Paypal's Fee Amount : -$0.59 USD Net Profit Amount : $9.36 USDSo if each sale of your product produces a gross profit of $9.36, then your net profit per-sale will be -$.64 ($9.36 gross profit - $10 cost-per-sale). This campaign is not profitable!As you can see, something has to change in order to make a profit. That's why it's important to track and calculate every campaign. So what went wrong with this example?-Paying too much for the banner space?-Need a better click-through rate?-Need to charge more for your product?The truth is that only you have the information required to decide but at least at this point you're in a better position to make a qualified decision.Return on Investment Ratios: Your return-on-investment (ROI), before non-marketing expenses, is 0.0% ($0.00 total net profits with a $10 investment).Experiment by advertising on multiple sites or using different banners if your budget will allow it. Find the perfect campaigns that yield the highest ROI.A few terms to know:» CPM - Cost Per Impressions (The "M" comes from the Roman numeral for 1,000). So $20 CPM represents $20 per 1,000 displays of a banner). An Impressions is simply each time your banner is shown.» CPC - Cost Per Click. You pay an agreed amount for each click-through to your site.» Click-Through (CT) - A click on an ad which takes the viewer to another site.» Click-Through Rate (CTR) - This is the number of people who click on an ad (banner or text link) divided by the number of displays of the ad, represented in percentages. Example: 500 people click on an ad that has been shown 10,000 times, which works out at: 500/10,000 X 100% = 5%.» Run Of Site (ROS) - This means your banner will be displayed on all or most pages of the site.Buying or Creating your own banners: You can find a graphic designer to create your banner or you can simply learn to design and build you own. We have done both on this site and our research shows almost equal results when using identical conditions. We're not going to give tutorials on banner design but we will offer a few tips to help get you started.If you decide to purchase your banners: Do your research. There are many so called ' graphic designers' that have very little training or experience with any type of graphics much less internet marketing or banner advertising.Get any promises or guarantees in writing. Keep in mind that anyone can setup shop online and many have no idea what they're doing to say the least.Do it yourself banners: There are several options when it comes to creating your own banners. Again, we're not here to teach you how to design and build your own, just to guide you in the right direction. Here are a few things to consider: » Think through your design. » Decide on a format. » Flash or Animated. » Image or HTML. » The best banner size. » Image load times.Image or HTML? Well, most of the banners we see are image based, whether .gif, .jpg of flash. But there is another very simple alternative. The HTML banner. You can even combine images and HTML to create incredible banners. A couple benefits of using a HTML banner are:» HTML banner will normally load faster. » On a HTML banner, you can promote many links.Banners sizes:468 x 60.....Full banner 234 x 60.....Half banner 392 x 72.....Full banner with vertical navigation bar 120 x 240...Vertical banner 125 x 125...Square button 120 x 90.....Button #1 120 x 60.....Button #2 88 x 31.......Micro buttonA few tips:Use attractive and attention grabbing images. Keep your text short and simple.Use proven key words like "free" and "now". "Free" is a very powerful incentive for the viewer to click on the button. Even the words "Click Here" can increase your click-through rate. Use a large font size for your message text. Create different versions of the banner. Test different banners to improve your click-through rate.Animate your banner, but use as few frames as possible to keep the file size to a quick loading minimum. Test new banners with a Pay Per Click network, before you use them in Pay Per Impression campaigns. Many sites display two different banners on each page, while others display the same banner at the top "top fold" and bottom "bottom fold" of each page. When given a choice, it's usually best to choose the top fold of page because the viewer is more likely to see your banner. You can expect to pay a lot less for "bottom fold" of page banner spaces.Brian Hawkins - Entrepreneur, Internet Marketer, Online business consultant, Author.
