The Importance Of Web Copywriting To Online Business And Its Success
November 22, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment
Internet has brought about many changes in the world. It now enables people to communicate with each other despite the distance through emails, live chats, play games, download researches from different search engines, and many more.
The business world is finding the net to be very useful. It has changed many aspects of conducting business practices, and this includes web copywriting.
Web copywriting entered the internet world with a big bang. The language on the net is rather confusing, especially to people who are not quite familiar with it. And perhaps, only copywriters know what they are actually doing; and regular people are left wondering what copywriting really is.
To start with, copywriting is putting the advertisement’s elements into writing. And this can only be done by copywriters who have the proper knowledge in doing such complicated jobs.
You should be certain that the team members you hire to do copywriting are the best among the best. They should be able to pass the qualifications and possess the skills needed for the job.
Many businesses are finding ways to introduce what their business offers online. It is much more effective because you can advertise to the whole world what your product is. This actually means that you can have only one office and yet you can cater to clients from different parts of the world.
How are you going to do this? First and foremost, you must be able to hire personnel who can effectively facilitate a productive and conducive environment for prospects and clients. Remember that you will not be able to see who your prospects are, your site will do all the work for you, and so it must be able to speak for itself.
Web copywriters do all the work in advertising to the whole world what the business is offering. They often start by knowing what product they have to offer, identifying the market, and finding the most effective way to impart to the reader/prospect what benefits they can get out of the product.
The website should be catchy, one that draws attention. People are encouraged to explore more on your site if their attention is caught, and if your site is not boring. Several tests should be conducted before you can actually put it into action. If your site is unable to catch people’s attention, your business will fail too.
That is why careful attention must be given to web copywriting. It is the essence of your business promotion. And this goes true to any business venture on the net. Without it, you can’t introduce your product to the world.
Internet marketing is truly a lucrative business, but it also makes easy money if you know how to go about the net. After establishing a website, the next agenda is usually the promotion. The site should be able to sustain your business. The design of your website depends on your business’ nature and personal preference. You must also have a logo of your company posted on your site, multimedia features for a more internet visibility, optimized search engines, and create customer interface.
Copywriting is included in promoting the website through advertising schemes, ad serving, and marketing programs. This is just one of the many aspects which you need to consider in promoting your business online.
Web copywriting alone can’t do all the work. The different aspects of your business should work together to ensure success on the internet.
Business Success is Through Advertising
November 20, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment
When starting an online business, one of the most powerful means of success is through using an advertising network, but there are many important factors to take under consideration before you embark on your marketing journey. With careful research and proper implementation, advertising networks are essential tools in helping you promote your business, create attractive banners for your website, use cost-effective marketing techniques and guide you in marketing strategies for your success.
First, it’s important to understand what an advertising network is. Advertising networks are companies that connect websites that host advertisements with advertisers who want to run advertisements. They generally pay money to software developers and websites to allow their ads to be shown when people visit their sites or use their software. The forms of online advertising inventory can be found on websites as RSS feeds, banner ads, rich media, and text links, on blogs, emails, instant messaging applications, adware and other sources. In most cases, such networks deliver their content through a central ad server.
There are two types of advertising networks. First tier advertising networks have high quality traffic that serve ads and traffic to second-tier networks, and they have a large number of their own advertisers and publishers. Popular search engines such as Google and Yahoo are examples of first-tier advertising networks. While second-tier advertising networks may also have some of their own publishers and advertisers, their main revenue source usually comes from other networks’ syndicated ads.
An advertiser buys a run or category of network packages within the network, and the advertising network serves advertisements from its ad server that then responds to a site once a page is called. While larger publishers often sell only their leftover inventory through advertising networks, small publishers usually use those networks to sell their entire inventory. Blind networks are a type of advertising network that is very economical and offer low pricing to direct marketers, but the advertisers do not know where their ads are going to be placed.
Some advertising networks provide free promotions to websites by providing them with banners and links and actively promote other businesses. But the search for authenticated information about an advertising network is essential before signing on. Use a referral system and don’t place your business with a network that is not well known or established. Choose an advertising network that imposes only a nominal financial burden on your website’s advertising campaign. Make sure that the advertising network’s terms and conditions clearly state what the relationship between your business and the network entails as well as a break down of charges per service. Make sure that the network you choose is run by an experienced and dedicated work group that will be able to carefully analyze your business, target the right audience and successfully market your products.

Social Media Marketing- The 10 Social Media Laws of Facebook
November 20, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment
Where have YOU been?
Unless you have lived in a cave the last 4 years, you have probably heard of this. It is a rocking hot social networking site that seems to be almost everywhere today. It is on the news. It is on the radio. It is on the minds of millions of folks a day.
It is called “Facebook” and over 175 million people are active on this site.
Ok- I know that you may be asking,” A LAW about facebook?” Yes, 10 of them for marketing and business success in what you do. I am a marketer and have been for 20 years. I built a training and consulting business that does business in over 20 countries, because of social media and the internet. And there are marketing laws that all marketers and business professionals must follow if they are going to have Success in the marketplace online.
It is the same for Facebook.
Lets cover them briefly:
1) The Law of Visibility on Facebook.
You MUST be visible on facebook of you are going to get your message out. You must spend time on facebook and get to know people. You must put yourself together a “facebook blueprint” and work it. How many hours a week are you going to be seen on FB? How many times are you going to befriend someone this week? How many times are you going to upload photos this week? All of these things put you in the ‘Visibility Zone” on facebook, and on the radar as far as people on facebook. Be SEEN and be THERE on a daily basis.
2) The Law of the Powerful Facebook Profile.
Why would people want to get to know you? One of the first things they check out is your facebook profile. What does it say- but better yet- what does it DO? Does it make people curious and want to get to know you? Does it make them think? Does it make them smile? Does it make them see that you have Value for their life and can help change it?
Powerful facebook profiles are NOT based on what is said in your profile- but what it DOES.
Does it direct them to DO something? Does it tell them you are person they MUST know? Or someone that has a nice picture and a nice profile- with no magnetism? Put yourself OUT THERE and tell the world WHY they need you as a friend, and get them to take action towards YOU.
3) The Law of the Facebook WALL.
You MUST use your Wall to market or message. many folks regard their Wall as a communication utility like email. It is not that. You already have a facebook email. The Wall is for you to BUILD- BRICK BY BRICK- MESSAGE BY MESSAGE- NOTE BY NOTE- VIDEO BY VIDEO- your Brand on Facebook. Every time something happens with you- it goes on your Wall. Don’t stare at the wall- CLIMB THE SUCKER and make your message the PEAK of the page- and keep yourself out there with the Wall. And answer the messages on your Wall. Thank people for sharing with you their visit or message. This will show up on THEIR wall. This will set you apart from most on facebook. The Wall is simply a BILLBOARD of what you are doing and your friends are doing on Facebook. Use it often and wisely.
4) The Law of Your Facebook Network.
You are part of a local facebook network and you have access to that network to befriend them. I live in Birmingham Michigan, and the network i am a part of is the Detroit network. There are 640,926 people in my network that I could potentially MEET LIVE in a local place and get to know them and connect with them. You have local folks as well. Where do you find your network?
Click on “settings” and then click on “network.” You will find it there. This is a GOLD MINE of people in your local area to CONNECT and Construct new trust bridges that may lead to business down the road.
5) The Law of the Facebook Notifications.
This is an overlooked and rarely talked about utility. Notifications are part of your “facebook email system.” Go to “email” at the top of your Facebook profile page, and then click on “notifications.”This is list of who is thinking about you, talking about you, including you in tags, and generally is pointing to you. This is a GOLD MINE of people that have PROVEN they are behind you and willing to make you a part of their Facebook experience. Pay attention to the facebook notifications. Thank them for their thoughts of you on their Wall and let them know you appreciate it. Include them as well on your tags and other activity on facebook. The notifications are GOLD and is a prospecting Vault of Leads. And make sure you stay CONNECTED to them.
6) The Law of Facebook Link Love.
The Link application on Facebook is a HOT commodity. It allows you to post a link that you like and then sends it out on the news feed that is on your home page. It picks up the image that you want on the link page, and allows it to be a LIVE link. Send out other people’s LINK and givem some LOVE. Do NOT just send out your own links. Let others do that. Find interesting links of others and send them out.
WHY? EXPOSURE for you. You will be given credit for the link. People LOVE link love. If you send out a LOT of other people’s links on facebook, they will start sending out YOUR links. Been there done that.
7) The Law of Facebook Groups.
Join groups. Join a LOT of Groups. Start your OWN groups. The join MORE groups. Why? Here are a few reasons: EXPOSURE. CONNECTION to other Group members. AUTHORITY. Start your own and be a Leader. INCREASE YOUR REACH.Groups extend your reach into Facebook. MULTIPLIED PROSPECTS. There are more people in a group — then on a profile page.
Duh. Build a list in your own group and then you can become an admin and email messages to them. Make them messages of VALUE and interest.
The Law of Facebook Events.
Attend events. Attend more Events. And then attend many MORE events. Why? It allows you to leave a message on the events page wall, and create exposure. I attend at least 2 facebook events every week- to learn- and to network. Events can be found on the new Facebook page in the upper right under “Upcoming”-these are the events that are upcoming. There is one unique twist: You have birthdays under the “upcoming” tag- and you can send presents to folks. THIS will get their attention as it shows up on their wall and the news feed as well. Attend as many events as you can. make them worth your while- learn and grow from them. BUT’always leave a RSVP message about attending or not- with an encouraging message. This will show your professionalism, and caring.
Event UP! This will do you well on facebook. Put the term “events” in the search box, and it will find every event that is going on in your network of friends. It is a GOLD MINE of new possibilties of business. Become a master of events!
9) The Law of Facebook Multimedia- Videos and Photos.
People LOVE photos and videos. They are the most looked at and watched pages on facebook. Make some videos and upload them. Upload some photographs. Not only will the be seen on your wall and the facebook news feed, but also will allow you to “tag” others on these. This means that you can pick out people you have befriended and let them know you are thinking of them. And when you tag someone- it shows up on THEIR wall. Not isn’t THAT cool? It is called EXPOSURE!
10) The Law of the Facebook NEWS FEED.
This is the big kahuna of Exposure on facebook. This gets you out to ALL of your friends and creates a massive exposure vehicle that can keep your brand in front and recognized. You also will be many times on the “featured” part of the new news feed on the right. This gives you HUGE exposure. Whatever you do, like change your status, upload a video, write and publish a note, or just comment on another person’s message on the facebook news feed- it SHOWS UP in the news Feed. Be seen- and be seen often if you are trying to brand yourself on facebook.
Yes, you need to establish relationships, and build community. But if you are going to MARKET on facebook-then you need to at least get a guideline of what and how to do it. The 10 Social Media Laws of Facebook hopefully gave you some idea in your social media marketing.

How Do I Become a Successful Freelance Copywriter?
November 19, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment
Many new internet business endeavours disappear very quickly, whilst others appear to be doing well only to grind to a halt. Statistics from the Small Business Administration confirm this by telling us that only a third of all new businesses eventually turn a profit. This information is not intended to scare you, because you do not have to be one of those statistics. All you have to do to join thousands of other successful copywriters, is to avoid common internet business start-up pitfalls. Here are some guidelines to ensure your online copywriting business success.
Developing the right mindset
1. In order to become a successful online copywriter you have to develop the right mindset. The copywriting business is not a get rich quick scheme. It won’t make you a millionaire overnight. But if you follow a few relatively simple steps you could set yourself on the road to financial independence and possibly great wealth!
Action Planning
2. According to online marketing guru Steve Wagenheim, in an ereport entitled The Mindset Of The Successful Marketer , 95% of the people who try to run an online business fail. This is because, they have no plan and they have no idea of what they are doing. If you fail to plan, you plan to fail, and this could spell disaster for your earning potential as a copywriter.
3. Avoid this problem by focusing on a particular area of copywriting. Nick Usborne writes in The Top Ten Mistakes Made by Freelance Writers and Copywriters that it is “far better that you establish a clear niche, an area in which you specialise and then become an expert”.
4. In order to decide on which area of copywriting to specialise in you may want to refer to sites which provide detailed information on the different types of copywriting opportunities available. Business Planning
5. All successful online business owners have developed a realistic business plan for their ventures. Business planning will give you a clear sense of direction and enable you to measure success within your copywriting business. The Business Link website provides a template for writing a business plan in addition to clear guidelines on what information to provide in each section.
Goalsetting
6. Write down how you would like to develop your business within the next 6 months, 12 months, 18 months and so on. As a newcomer you might set yourself a financial goal to make at least £6,000 in the first year of your copywriting career.
7. Using Robert Bly’s calculations in 10 Ways to make a 6-Figure Income as a Freelance Writer, you will have to make £120 a week for 50 weeks. To achieve your weekly target you might plan to do two assignments a week at £60 each. Focus on Quality
8. Dr. Ken Evoy, creator of Site Sell Inc emphasises the importance of offering your customer high quality information. In doing so, you become a trusted expert and many customers will want to work with you. As a result, your income will actually soar. Once the word gets round you will establish credibility for yourself and you will be able to command higher fees.
Market Your Services
9. Go to copywriting internet forums such as Google groups and Yahoo Groups. Post an ad stating that you are offering a free copywriting service. Some online marketers will give your free service a try. Make sure you obtain testimonials for each project you complete.
10. Build a website to promote your copywriting services. Assemble the free copywriting assignments into a portfolio and provide a statement reflecting your work. Don’t forget to include the testimonials received from your customers.
You can drive traffic to your site in many ways:
* Consider delivering informative content for free article directories such as Go Articles and Ezine Articles. Don’t forget to include a hook to your website.
* Write a blog about your business using Blogger or Wordpress.
* Send out news releases * Network on discussion boards get to know people in the community and swap services with other members
You can expand your work opportunities by signing up to a freelance writing agency such as Academic Knowledge.

Blogging A Powerful Tool When Traffic Generation Is Your Goal
November 12, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment
Blogging is a powerful medium for increasing access and exposure to quality information. For many it is a different and easier way to build a website. Blogging is a journal which has a specific subject and the subject may be one which you have expertise or merely the review of a website that links to your blog for promoting products or services. It can have the added advantage of collecting links to web pages and sharing thoughts and ideas with people on-line. Writing a blog can be quite easy but generating traffic and thus revenue from the activity is what you need to master.
Business
Blogging software lacks what businesses do need to actually make money (which is the ultimate goal). And if you don’t own your own free, targeted traffic (”organic traffic”), you don’t own your on-line business. The sheer volume of sites (over 100 million, not even including the hundreds of millions of free blogs) makes on-line business success harder than ever. The use of blogs is the best way for any small business to succeed on-line, whether you want to sell your services to the world, whether you are a stay-at-home-mom who wants to build a strong second family income while raising your children at home, or whether you have an off-line local business that you want to expand through a website. It can also be used to start an on-line business “from scratch,” or to support and grow an existing off-line business. Some fields of business such as internet marketing lend themselves well to blogging, whilst for others it may be inappropriate.
Bloggers
Bloggers tend to be a creative bunch. They interlink to each other with gusto, creating what they call “the blogosphere”. It is often said that blogs are more dynamic and promote conversations. Bloggers, of course, form part of the on-line media, they are also publishers, like all other on-line publishers and face the same question of how to make money off of their content.
For many blogging is more work, but it is certainly worth it for the rewards it can bring. As a concept blogging is still really new and pretty much free for most people. Blogging is a great way to achieve high levels of communication but making your blog worth reading can be challenging. If you are unable to keep your blogs updated regularly the benefits of traffic generation is greatly reduced. Blogging is a medium, and not the be-all and end-all of things, it is a means to an end.

Organic Traffic – Free all the Way to the Bank
November 9, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment
While there is no question about whether traffic is a vital piece to your online business success, getting organic traffic which is also called free traffic requires some basic facts you should know about. Whether you should use paid traffic or unpaid traffic brings up an interesting topic. While the debate rages on, I prefer organic traffic because it is free and can become a tidal wave if you implement the following strategies.
To be more clear what unpaid traffic is type “search engines” into your browser and we will look at the results. The results you see on the right are paid traffic and the results on the left are called organic traffic or free traffic. Your goal is to for your website to be within positions one to five. The organic traffic positions are determined by search engines based on links pointed back to your website from other websites. The more links you have pointing to website the better your position will be in the organic traffic positions. Now we will examine how you build links. The most prominent to start building links are:Link farms, Link directories, Articles.
Link farms are just that, websites created for the sole purpose of selling links to other website owners. While debate rages as to the effectiveness of this method, Google is starting to penalize websites that have links from link farms with no other relevant content. I am not a fan of this method and I strongly doubt what your success in getting organic traffic will be.
Link directories are slightly different from link farms because they offer more contents to go with the link directories. Your website is listed with brief description of your websites content. Try to get your website into as many directories as you can. Your search for organic traffic will increase with this method.
Writing articles is the most effective way to start getting your share of organic traffic. This is so because you can influence your share of organic traffic positively. Pick a keyword or long tail keywords and then write an article about the keyword. Now submit your unique article to article distribution websites like Articlesdynamic. Submit your article to at least twelve article distribution websites. When website owners seek content they usually visit these sites. When your article is used a link to your website is also included. The search engine spiders love this kind of link very much. I have seen one article with hundreds of links. Imagine ten or twenty articles and you can easily create a free traffic avalanche coming to your website.
Another effective way to get organic traffic is to post in forums or on a blog that you have created. Also include your website link in all your email or letter heading. Building a good share of organic traffic requires patience, diligence and a fierce dedication to the written word. From my experience just keep writing relevant articles and the search engines will reward your website with more and more organic traffic.

Home Based Business: With the Right Strategy You Can Make Money Blogging
November 8, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment
Ask any internet marketer with a successful home based business and they will tell you that blogging is an integral part of their online marketing strategy. Why? Simple, because this is your space to say what you want and interface with your subscribers. Relationship building is an important factor with online business success.
So why should you start a blog?
There are two very important reasons to maintain your own blog for your home based business. Number one, millions of people visit blogs every day for information or to be entertained. If your blog is entertaining, provides knowledge or in a niche they are interested in, they will continue to come back, building a strong following for your home business.
Blogs are great for search engine rankings. Because the content changes continually it can keep your blog rankings high in Google and Yahoo. And if you are using good SEO tactics placing good keywords for your niche in your posts, that can equate to money in your bank account.
Secondly, blogs should be a strategic part of your marketing strategy. Because you are the owner of your blog you can use the blog for advertising your affiliate programs.
Another way some blog owners make money is by selling advertising spots to others to advertise their products. Advertisers are always looking for places to place their banners, and if you have a high ranking blog with lots of traffic, you’ll find advertisers are willing to pay top dollar to place their banner on your site.
Let’s not forget Google AdSense. This is one of the easiest ways to generate income for your home business blog. By placing ads strategically within in your blog, you can entice visitors to click on the advertising links. Each time someone clicks on a link you get paid.
Another way to generate income is by making a section of your blog a membership site. Let’s say you are offering highly targeted training for your home based business niche, and that training is extremely valuable to your business partners. Then make that section of the blog access by paid subscription only. If you have many loyal followers that are hungry for your content, they will be willing to pay a small fee for to that content.
The opportunity to make money for your home based business niche blog is endless. And the best part is setting up a blog is very low cost or free. I use WordPress for my blogging needs, but there are others like Blogger and TypePad. You will need to decide which one best fits your needs. Your biggest expense is hosting and your time of course to post and review comments.
If blogging is not part of your online marketing plan is should be. To learn more about blogging and other online business building strategies visit http://www.BuildingOnlineBusinessSuccess.com.
