Basics Of Online Success

If you are new to the online marketing world you must have many questions. Even if you are not new you may have plenty of questions as well. Regardless of your experience if you are not following certain basic guidelines then you are not going to very successful with your online marketing activities.

There are some basics that you must implement to succeed. They are tracking,
auto responders, fresh squeeze pages and splash pages and most important of all branding yourself and not someone else.

Tracking results is important as it tells you how a campaign is doing at a particular site. You can also test how 2 different pages on the same subject are doing at the same site. The opportunities are endless in regards to tracking. Hits Connect is a great place to join to get tracking results. You will find it here: http://www.trker.com/go/26919


Auto responders are used to grow your list of people who you can communicate to.
If you don’t have a list then who are you going to market to? You can set up email campaigns and newsletters and can choose how often you want to keep in touch with your contacts. Above all you must have this set up. AWeber is my choice for doing this. You can find it here: http://www.trker.com/go/26918


Creating fresh splash pages and squeeze pages are a must. Don’t get caught in the trap of showing your generic pages. Everyone is doing that and you need to stand out from the rest of the crowd. Make yours different and special. Banners can also be a great tool to use. Don’t forget to add your sign up box for prospects to sign up through aweber.Two great places to go to create fresh pages and banners are SplashPageMaker and InstantBannerCreator.

Branding yourself and building your list and business will propel your business. The more you get your face in front of people and market yourself, the more people will begin to trust you and you give them the feeling that you are knowledgeable and can be trusted. You are an online marketer and a professional so why wouldn’t you want to portray yourself that way. People can tell who is on the cutting edge of internet marketing and choose to follow those that are.
