If you are new to the internet marketing game, like me, then maybe you want to read this little diddy. I am not going to sell you anything or ask you to sign up for the latest and greatest sure way to make a ton of money in 7 Days. Every time you read an article or an e-mail someone is telling you how you need to buy their program and become a millionaire overnight. BBSS
If you're smart you will be an INFO SPONGE long before you start your endeavor. There is so much to know if you really want to be a success. Not all are honest and trustworthy people.
Everyone tells you to get a Domain, pick a Domain Name, make it a unique name, find a WEB HOST, set up your Wordpress Blog, buy an Auto responder Program, write articles and fill your blog with content. While all of this is true, there is not but just a few people that will really take you by the hand and tell you what to do.
In the short period of time that I have been working on my Market efforts, I have learned, Who To Trust, What Emails are really important, What Social Networks to really use, How to use Adsense and Adwords, How to make money with Google, What SEO means and what it can do for you, How to use CPA Marketing, What does Keyword mean and how Google Tools can really be a plus for you. This list goes on and on.
I have learned these things by being a Sponge Bob. I have signed up for so many programs that are free just to get the information and see who is telling me the truth. There is so much BS out there, so please be careful.
There are articles and books that will explain how to use Adwords and Adsense, I have read them and put them to use and they work. There is a PDF that is 89 pages long that will explain how to use CPA Marketing. The reason I mention these two is because you must understand how they affect your marketing scheme and they will sooner or later.
In all my research and being a Sponge Bob, I have found without any question the source of information and teaching that far exceeds anyone else on the market. Jimmy Brown, Affilinaire.com. He has a very complete and detailed program that will take you thru all that you need to do to get started correctly. He has an Affiliate Manager who, without a doubt is very smart and tells it like it is.
You must understand SEO for your blog or website. Without this you will get no where. You need to understand Links and how they can or cannot help you. This list goes on and these things are discussed in great detail on other days.
Understand one thing, I am not a writer nor am I going to blow smoke up your leg. The Internet Marketing Business is a detail business. You must be a stickler for detail and present all that you can to the buyer and see it from the buyers' eyes. WOULD YOU BUY FROM YOU?
You must learn How to Use GOOGLE, you want these people on your side. I was working in the Silicon Valley when Google started and I know how important these people can be for you and your success. Read their tutorials and follow what they teach you, it does work, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. THANKS GOOGLE FOR ALL YOUR HELP..
In future articles I will elaborate on single items at a time. I will not dress it up but, will share with the reader what I have learned the hard way by being an INFORMATION SPONGE BOB.
