Make Money Online Go Rich Online
Just Another Blog On How To Make Money Online

Here is a list of websites we discussed on the video. I have included the links to where you can get these products. Some of them are my affiliate links ( Proof that I am using them and when you click and buy through those links then I make a commission. Alternatively you can directly go to the company site and buy from them.

Opt-in Page and sales page creation without any web developer help: Xsitepro.com (My Affiliate Link)
You can directly buy the software at www.xsitepro.com
Order processing and all shopping cart functions: 1shoppingcart.com (My Affiliate Link)
You can directly buy the software at www.1shoppingcart.com
Reliable Autoresponder with gauranteed deliver-ability: Aweber.com ( My Affiliate Link)

You can directly buy the software at www.aweber.com

Cannot Listen To The Audio. No Worries, Here is a complete readable transcript of the Video

This is Srini and I welcome you the video tip of the day and on this recording I want to give you one - in fact three different applications that I use to run my on line business. Three of them .This is not about- I am not saying – I am not doing this to get my affiliate commission out of it. You use my affiliate link at the bottom of this video, you buy the product. By all means do that. But again these are the three things you need for your online business.

These tools helped me to make about $25k straight. They contributed to $25k of success to myself in my business. So three tools you will need.

Awebber is a phenomenal e-mail marketing tool. They have added more features that have lately upgraded it. It is a subscription based software- it is about $29 per month or so..some thing like that.You have to get it for your business .If you are very much focused on e mail marketing, you want to do a lot of auto responders ad things like that, by all means you use awebber. That is the defacto standard. I Highly recommend it.

1ShoppingCart: Now 1shoppingcart has gone through several levels of transformation, the company got acquired recently. But 1ShoppingCart has built a lot of psychological elements in to their application lately. So it is about $99 a month. At that price it’s still a phenomenal tool.

The reason why I like 1ShoppingCart is because there are lot of people who help you setting your shopping cart up, set your auto responders, set your optin pages , there lot of help. Now there are more powerful tools in the market place that are more functional and superior to 1shoppingcart,but then they are expensive.

So for $99 a month you will get a very complete integrated- you know it has auto responder, it has e-mailing capabilities but then you get a complete integrated solution for your business. So you go ahead and get that.

Now the third piece of software I use extensively for my business is Xsitepro. Now there are – if you are a web developer and you know the usage of html, you know the usage of Dream Weaver and FrontPage, those are the tools that we used in the past.

There are lot of tools right now. But XsitePro is primarily created for your direct response marketing business. If you want to use single page sales letters for promoting your own products or affiliate products, then Xsitepro your tool.

These three tools put together, they contributed about $25 k in my business. So there is no excuse around it. I whole heartedly use them. Whatever success I have, these tools have contributed to them. You have an option to go and buy through my affiliate link and also directly through their website, either way JUST BUY them. I want you to get them.

Best of luck, I wish you all the best and I will see you tomorrow again on the video tip of the day.

Among all these tasks you only need to master just one task that will make you money, get you credibility and will make you a true marketer inside and out i,e: COPYWRITING.

If you have not heard what power content network is..here is a quick synopsis.

PCN in short, is a tight group of web business owners who primarily believe in content as a medium for generating traffic and sales on their website.

As a member of the club you will receive highly focused articles that will perform will for the “Long Tail Traffic”.

In the past, people have asked me how is this different than all those zillion PLR sites that pop up every day on the internet. Aren’t PLR sites useless given google is penalizing duplicate
content?

First off all Power Content Network is based on extensive keyword research. There is a system or a method behind it. What it means to you is when you take the content and put it on your site or blog,
you will attract a serious chunk of long tail traffic.

Now, to avoid duplicate content problem, the number of people who can participate in PCN is restricted to a few.

Limited access will restrict duplication.

I wanted to send this email and see if this is something that interests you if it does?, please email me back becuase I really want to know your interest.

Based on my own success(whatever small it is) with long tail I have got some terrific traffic hence I am confident that any blogger or website owner will immensely benefit from this service.

If you are interested in well researched search patterns and putting bait to get the right traffic to your site, you may consider this option.

There is nothing to buy yet, the service is scheduled to open on Ocotober 2, 2008

Before I go too far excited about this, I want to know if you are interested in this. Let me know your thoughts.

You probably may know this already…Without effective and strategic marketing, a business is doomed to fail.

Every Business regardless of the type, place and industry has a common mantra..Its some what like this.

Step 1: Attract People and Convert Them Into Customers

Step 2: Provide outstanding customer service.

Step 3: Turn Them Into repeat customers.

Step 4: Continue to Look for new customers.

Certainly there are periodic tweaks that every business has to make to remain competitive and viable.

Talk to any online marketer, they will tell you the only reason why they are not as successful as they should be is because their list is very small or is unresponsive.

I strongly believe that a good list can accelerate your success. At the same time I know many marketers who make unbelievable amount of money with small lists. All by timely marketing relevant and problem solving solutions to their list.

So you have to build a list..as you do so..make sure that you build strong relationships. Here are a few tips on how you can kick start your realtionship building process..

Always provide a means for your online prospects to contact you directly, whether it’s setting up a contact point on your website, or even just providing them with an email address to use.

People really appreciate when their inquiries and comments are personally addressed. Also, when you do get a great comment from a customer, it’s always a good practice to send them a thank you as well as a request to use their comments as a customer satisfaction testimonial on your site.

Add more value to your site by also providing useful links for your potential customers to use, they do not need be affiliate links. Your readers/customers need answers. Is there an appropriate forum you could direct them to? If not, you might want to consider setting one up.

Forums, community channels and web logging are invaluable tools to help you not only keep in touch with your customers, but to also keep your finger on the pulse of your marketing audience. Many useful ideas and suggestions can help you establish yourself as an innovator rather than a simple competitor.

Give them a brief history about yourself and your company. This provides a great reference point for your customers to relate to you on a more personal level. What motivated you to create your business and product? Think how some of the head computer honchos started their businesses from their garage or college dorm rooms. People are fascinated by reading those stories.

I try to do all of the above on all of my websites. I would like to know the answers of the following questions. You can leave your answer in the comment section.

- Mr.H made $3000 a day or more online with one website for a long time before announcing his real name( Bill Harris) to the world. Do you prefer to market your products or services under your own name or a pseudo name?
- How many co-ordinates you have on your website? I have my email, address, phone and fax. I use about 4 or 5 different co-ordinates.
- When people try to call you, does your phone defaults into voicemail all the time?
- How often do you call your customers or readers?

I can go on and on..For now I will pause..

Cheers!

Most of us are aware that companies offer free gifts as incentives to generate demand. We also know that businesses within the technology industry and large organizations, for example, Oracle or Intel generate leads by giving away specialized reports. However, I want to show you an excellent strategy which will generate leads not just to attract people who are interested in what you have on offer, but also to those who will remain loyal to you for a long time to come. This goes by the name of BOOK STRATEGY.

One of the first things I noticed when I launched my initial membership site was how much people are interested in content. Whilst networking, workshops, seminars, E-books, CDs and DVDs proved to be fascinating to all, there was one other aspect which created a fantastic relationship between me and my subscribers. It was a very straightforward gesture but also extremely worthwhile, when I gave them books for free in the last quarter of the year.

When compared to CDs, DVDs, Teleseminars and e-books, a book is felt to carry the most value by far. With a high shelf value, a book is, on many occasions, considered to be a bigger and better information resource than the Internet.

How do you go About Putting into Practice a Book Give Away Service in Your Business?

Selecting a good book to give someone is easy if you read a lot of books yourself. Find a subject which compliments your line of business and is also likely to be of assistance to your customers, and then simply give them a free copy. Help is always at hand by having a look at Amazon.com if you are not a regular reader or cannot think of a particular book to present your customers with. When you find something which appears to be interesting, read it yourself and if you feel that your customers will glean something from it, order a few copies and send them out.

There are several sites on the internet where you can buy books in bulk. There is no requirement for the book to be in the best seller charts, just make sure that the content of the book is relevant to your audience.

Shipping costs are very reasonable. Using USPS and sending them as media mail costs no more than $3 per book, coast to coast within the United States and Officemax supply covers for less than a dollar making the whole thing an inexpensive idea.

There is definitely something about books which is unfathomable as they connect people at a very special level. But don’t just take my word for it! Send your customers books and just watch what happens. You will be everyone’s favorite with this generous action.

If you are a blogger and you want to be successful, writing great material, unfortunately, will not get you to your goal. You need TRAFFIC. I.e. the most challenging aspect of internet marketing.

For many a reasons I like DIGG and Stumbleupon. So I will focus on these two sources in this post. Apart from that, I have given you a list of 7 top articles/posts ever written on this subject that I found worth reading.

How do they work?

There are several services on Digg and Stumbleupon that you can use. They allow you to get popularity by sending a few fellow bloggers or visitors over to your site.

Digg works in the following manner: First you upload an article, a story, and a commentary, whatever you like to your blog. When visitors like the content they will rank/rate/flag it on DIGG (to make this process easy, most bloggers use a DIGG Icon next to each post) in other words intimate DIGG that they liked the articles. The more DIGGs you get the higher are the chances that you will get to the homepage of DIGG.

As you see now, if you reach a higher number of popularity hits then Digg will put your submission on its homepage and if it continues to be successful there it will further be placed on the top ten list.

Digg also has a forum for you to add and meet friends who are interested in the same topics and you can discuss what Digg items you find. This way you will build a network that you can direct to your own site. You can also advertise your site on Digg.

The other service is Stumbleupon.

Stumbleupon helps bloggers in the same way as Digg. Based upon good and bad commentaries, while you are trying to “stumble” upon a website, the stumble search that comes up is generated from stumble friends and other members who have the same preferences and tastes as you do. Therefore, if Stumbleupon members enjoy your website, you will get good ratings and some reviews too.

The more ratings you have, the higher up on the Stumbleupon search engine you will be on. Between Digg and Stumbleupon, these are the two top ranked services that will help you launch your website.

Stumbleupon also provides a pay per view service. You can setup a campaign by paying $25 and can get about 500 visitors to your site. The cost per visit is about 0.05 cents.

I highly recommend it. Stumbleupon usually takes 24hrs to approve your campaign. Most recently they rejected my paid campaign to drive traffic to this blog.. Not sure why? May be the dislike the concept of “Make Money Online”

However, even though you use these services, sometimes they are not enough. It is one thing to have people to come to your web site, but it is another thing to keep them coming. There are many things that go into developing a loyal readership for your blog that are beyond the context of this post.

You want to generate buzz about your website by developing top notch blogging skills of your own.

The following are a list of blogging tips to generate traffic to your site.

The first piece of advice is to follow your blog and the commentaries that are left. If people are responding to your website, to your pictures, to your opinions, etc. you need to respond back. With these responses you will create more buzz plus you will be telling your readers that you care what they think.

It also creates a conversation flow. If you start to run out of ideas, hop onto your respondents’ websites and regenerate conversation on your blog.

Some bloggers dislike this process as comments ruin the keyword density of the page, hence they disable the comment function on their blog.

Then you can research other blog websites that are similar to yours. Start conversations on other websites with a similar premise and leave a link to your website. You know that the people leaving commentaries are interested in the same subject as you, so it should not be difficult to win them over.

Once again you will have to write something “out standing” on someone else’s blog to make the traffic follow you.

Try to offer something that your visitors need. If you have quality writing you will keep your readers engaged. If your blog is pure opinions regarding nothing, there is not much there to keep the attention of your readers.

If you write how to articles, news articles, movie reviews anything that is new and fresh that offers your reader more than you creating controversies over and over again..

Remember Blogging is all about substance.

If you are fascinated by rocket science, physics even mechanics, the general population does not understand that language per se. It does not mean that your potential audience is unintelligent; it just means that they are not adept to it because what is the point of reading something that one does not understand.

Therefore, make your passion readable to all viewers. Use ordinary terminology to explain complex ideas or issues. Write directions, a bibliography or have a special vocabulary section to help your readers.

While writing make your blog special(This blog tries to be different with unique videos and demonstrations). If you right plain, in between material that does not make a statement no one wants to read it. Think of it this way.

When you read a headline that makes you sick because of the content it is suggesting such as racism, sex or steroids in Olympics, doesn’t it make you want to read it that much more? Remember Anthrax and Tsunami in early 2000’s

It’s not because you are in favor of the article, it’s because you cannot believe that someone would say something so horrible.

It is provocative. If you do not make a statement, if you are not provocative, you will not get the attention.

Jazz up your website. By revamping your website you will please the senses of your regular readers as well as possibly attracting new ones (this site got a facelift about 10 days ago). You can submit your newly designed website to a CSS gallery which will have a back link to your website. You can also add a translator to your page. By adding this feature, you can attract non native English speakers. The translation may not be professional, especially if it is a free translator, but it will at least get your message across and get some international traffic.

The Digg and Stumbleupon services will provide you with the starting point. If you need further insights… read on…

These Top 7 posts will give you all the insights and catapult you into the spotlight.

Getting Traffic to Your Blog Using Widgets

Here is another cool video which shows how you can manage your 125×125 efficiently with plugins.

When I asked my subscribers to comment on the latest design on www.gorichonline.com the first question I received from many was, how are the 125X125 ads on the right column working for me.? How did I implement this and how are the converting for me?

When I launched my personal Blog (www.SriniSaripalli.com) I struggled with this, I was not aware of any plugin that could handle this for me, or at least to my requirements. I came across some hosted ad rotating solutions but they were not to my satisfaction.

So I got it hand coded and that too into a widget( for better administration and avoid accidents with my sidebar.php code).

I wanted my ads to randomly juggle. In other words change positions everytime the page is loaded. This was to make sure every ad gets equal # of eyeballs.

I wanted to track how many clicks each ad was getting. On SriniSaripalli.com I have all the links being manually tracked with my 1shoppingcart ad tracking.

Most recently I came across Two plugins that can do this very efficiently.

WP125 Plugin: which can not only can do what I mentioned above but can also expire your Ads on a future date. Very powerful. Download it here

Nate White Hill put together a cool Ad Block plugin that does the same. In fact this site uses that plugin. Download it here

Also in future we will find precise tracking, for example which ad was clicked in which position and additional geographical information about the click such as where it came from, the ip address of the click, the browser info etc, Similar to what Google Analytics or Statscounter features

I am sure there are plugins for other dimensions also. If you are aware of any such cool plugins, by all means share that here.

To Your Continued Success!

Adding new content to your website is an important consideration. If you have a stagnant website that’s only updated once a year, it will eventually fade away into obscurity. (A good thing that websites don’t need food or else there would be plenty of Internet famines) If you don’t have the time or ideas to constantly update a website, blog or e-commerce site, then it may make sense to hire an online writer. What are some important points to consider first?

1. Work with a Company

If you work with an established SEO company then you get more than just original content. You also get efficient keyword optimization help that will increase your search engine rankings. Some of these companies offer a ranking guarantee and charge just a little bit more money than an online writer would charge for the article itself.

2. Specify What Kind of Content You Need

It pays to be specific. If you hire an online writer to fill pages with no specific directions, then don’t expect a lot of groundbreaking content. Specify what subjects you want to hear about and what subjects you want to avoid. Specify if you want unique articles rather than rewrites. (Though there may be a difference in price) You can even suggest links of other websites that the writer could get ideas from.

3. Plan To Boost Sales Or Hold Strategic Traffic

There’s no use in hiring an online writer unless you have a central purpose in mind. Are the articles that you buy intended to boost sales or hold steady traffic? Would your web viewers have an interest in related topics or just keyword articles? Would opening blog comments further increase customer interest? Professional writers may charge rates up to 5 cents a word or more, so make sure that you consider the business side of this feature. Some writers will work for much less, though the quality of work will usually match the price. A professional website should always feature the best original content available, whether the author is the company owner or a hired help.
