Five Secret Online Strategies

This might apply to you if you’ve been working for any length of time online. 

Can you remember what it was like to be a newbie?  Are you aware of what you actually know and probably take for granted?   Chances are the answer to both questions is no.  But think about it and you could unearth a valuable opportunity.  You are an expert in more than you know!

Utilize Your Knowledge
Do you have extensive knowledge in a particular subject?  Think carefully.  It doesn’t have to be a doctorate.  Maybe you just KNOW how to get fractious kids off to sleep? can catch fish easily? or know the recipe to KILLER cheesecakes?  or know how to light a barbeque FIRST time?  (and who WOULDN’T pay for any of THAT info?). 

So why not offer visitors to your site free consulting or advice on your area of expertise via e-mail?  Or offer it in exchange IF they link to YOUR website.  Or run your promotional ad in their e-zine.  Or place an advertising banner their web site for a set period of time?

Become A Publisher
Did you know that you can publish ezines for other people for free?  In “payment” for your work designing, updating and  gathering content, you could ask that your promotional ad be placed at the top of each issue…. If you consider the readership of the ezines, how many potential subscribers could see YOUR ad at the top of the next ezine? …

Persuade Them To Sign Up
A great way to get e-mail addresses and testimonials for your online business is to ask people to sign your guest book. The problem is a lot of people won’t take the extra time to do this.  So why not bribe them by something in return, such as free eBooks, loaded with YOUR affiliate codes…?
Publish your e-zine in ebook format. You could offer more articles per issue. You could add graphics with the articles just like in print magazines. Your advertising revenue would increase because you could charge businesses for full page colour ads.

Tell Them What’s Next
Whet your visitors’ appetites.  Make them WANT to come back to your website. Tell them about upcoming articles, prize drawings, free stuff, etc. If they know what’s in store for them, they will revisit. Tell then to sign up for an e-mail reminder or tell them to bookmark your web site.

Share Your Information
Create a web book that’s related to your web site topic. Give people the option of linking to the web book so they give it away to their visitors. Put your ad on top of the title page to get free advertising. This strategy will easily multiply your advertising exposure.

These five secret strategies will help you extend your online brand and ultimately get more customers to your website…  and who doesn’t want that?

Increase Traffic By Offering A Free eCourse

Everyone with a website needs traffic to it.  Traffic is the lifeblood of all online businesses.  And one great way to generate traffic is to offer a free ecourse. 

If you have extensive knowledge on a particular subject, why not create a free ecourse for your website visitors. Obviously, the ecourse should be related to the theme of your website! For example, if your website is selling niche ebooks, your free ecourse could be on buying and selling ebooks online for example.
    
Your ecourse could be in html, autoresponder and ebook format.

HTML
If you are comfortable using HTML, you could put your ecourse right on your website.  To do this, you will need to create a separate webpage, with a title and table of contents.  Using clickable chapter links will help your visitors navigate around easily.  One major advantage of having the ecourse on your website itself is that it will increase the length of time people spend on your website, and so increase the chance of you making sales.

Remember to allow people to give away your e-course on their websites.  Just have them link to your website from theirs… and all those lovely backlinks will do wonders to your traffic flow!

eBOOK
Create your ecourse in a downloadable ebook format, and remember to include links to your website and your business ad in the ebook.  There are lots of free ebook creators on the web.   

Always allow people to give away your free ebooks.  With your links inside them they will go viral all over the web, and drive traffic too!

AUTORESPONDER
Publish your ecourse on your autoresponder. Whilst you could sign up to a free autoresponder, if you’re serious about your business, you should use the best third party autoresponder on-line.  Simply put one chapter of your ecourse in each message and schedule them to go out at regular intervals.  Remember to put links to your website in your autoresponder email signature.

Another way to generate traffic to your sites would be to allow advertisers to advertise in your ecourse.  Ask them to advertise your free ecourse on their websites (by providing a backling to your site) and generate further visitors to your website.  

These are just some of the ways you could generate traffic using a free ecourse.  You could additionally burn it to DVD and sell it on eBay, use a fax-on-demand service, make a video of your ecourse and post it to video sites etc.  Don’t forget, using as many formats as you can to generate as much traffic as you can handle!  Go for it!

Right Hand Diamond Rings

Right hand diamond rings are one of the hottest new trends to hit the fine jewelry fashion scene in recent years.

It used to be unheard of for a woman to buy her own diamond ring.  But these days women are increasingly buying their own jewelry, and rather than wait for the traditional diamond engagement ring, women are buying gorgeous diamond rings of their own and wearing them on their right hands.  

Wearing a diamond ring was always more acceptable for the left hand. Diamond rings are thought of as the traditional engagement rings or wedding rings, which are always worn on the ring finger of the left hand.

The right hand diamond ring is marketed to financially independent women because they symbolize success, self-assertiveness and freedom, which completely different to the symbolism of the left hand diamond rings, which symbolize with love, commitment and union.

Right hand diamond rings are different from engagement rings.  There is typically no single centrepiece diamond stone, rather large numbers of smaller diamonds are arranged in much more flambouyant styles than diamond engagement ring designs.  Right hand rings are often also set with high fashion gemstones too, such as top grade tanzanite, hot pink sapphires or amethyst.

Right hand diamond rings symbolise a woman’s independent success and her role in life as a significant contributor whether or not she has a life partner.  

Right hand diamond rings have substantially widened the marketing possibilities for fine diamond jewelry, which was previously marketed to men almost exclusively.  Previously men were perceived to have the money to spend on fine diamond jewelry.  But today, marketing efforts are equally being targeted to a woman’s sense of self worth and personal achievements.   

But diamond right hand rings are not about being single.  These rings can be worn by married women too – they symbolise empowerment, strength of spirit and personal achievement.  These rings have also gained popularity simply because they are beautiful and something new to try out – a trend everyone’s enjoying.

Right hand rings can also make the perfect gift for any strong spirited woman in your life, so browse through the different designs and find one that matches her personality.
