Maximizing
Your Internet Marketing Strategies ======================================== By
Shelley Lowery to your
online success. Your strategy not only involves your marketing and
promotional efforts, but your web site will also play an
important role. You
must develop and implement both short-term and long-term marketing strategies
to bring a continuous flow of targeted traffic to
your web site. Developing
a powerful strategy is a very important part of your success. However,
unless your web site is specifically designed to sell,
your efforts will be useless. You must look at the entire picture before
you begin. Short
term marketing strategies are those that bring you a temporary boost
in traffic. Although these techniques are very important to
your over-all plan, they are only a temporary traffic source and
must not be solely relied upon. Short-term
marketing strategies include: Purchasing
Advertising This
form of short-term marketing includes ezine
advertising, banner advertising
and classified ads. Although it is important to occasionally
purchase advertising, it is short-term and will produce short-term
results. Bulletin
Boards Although
sharing your expertise at popular bulletin boards can provide you
with a boost in traffic, it is a temporary boost. It will not continue
to produce results. Most boards only display a certain number
of posts and the rest are archived. Search
Engines Obtaining
a high ranking in the Search Engines is a never-ending battle. You
may have a top ten ranking one day and the next day your site
may disappear. It is very important to submit your web site to
the Search Engines, but trying to keep a top ten ranking is very time
consuming -- your efforts may be better spent on more effective marketing
techniques. In
order to create a steady stream of targeted traffic to your web
site, you
must also market for the future.
Long-term marketing techniques are
those that will continue to produce results even years down
the road. So
what are some of these long-term powerful techniques? Here's
a few to get you started: Opt-in
lists Ask
for your visitor's name and email address. In return, provide them
with a valuable publication, a free course or some other
valuable information. By continuously building your opt-in
lists, you're creating a long-term database of potential customers. Freebies Give
away something of value engraved with your name, business, product
or service. Your freebie might be software you've created,
a free ebook, or even a free course. The
key to creating a
long-term marketing freebie is to allow it to be freely distributed. If
your freebie is good, it will quickly saturate the Internet
and continue to circulate eternally. Content Provide
the Internet community with free content. Content comes in
a variety of forms such as articles, tutorials, tips, reports or
whatever you'd like. Allow your content to be freely published in
ezines and web sites. Content is a highly
sought after commodity
and can provide you with a great deal of free exposure for
years to come. A solid
Internet marketing plan will include everything from your ad to
your thank you and follow-up letters. Each process in your plan
must perform a specific task. 1.
Your short-term marketing strategies will drive traffic to your
web site
in intervals. Each time you place an ad, your traffic will increase. After
a few days, your traffic will drop off. 2.
Your long-term marketing strategies will drive a steady stream of traffic
to your web site. Your traffic will continue to increase over time. 3.
Your ad must draw your potential customer's attention and create curiosity.
It must lead them to click through to your web site. 4.
Your web site will then take over and provide
further information, while
leading your potential customer to your order page.
5.
Your order page will be packed with all of the benefits your product has
to offer and call for action. 6.
Your marketing plan will continue to be implemented by closing the
sale with a thank you letter. 7.
Your final step will be to send follow-up messages in the future to
provide good customer service and introduce new products. A marketing
plan is an absolute must. If you have no direction, you'll travel
in circles and ultimately never reach your goals. Plan
your work then work your plan. You may be pleasantly surprised with
the outcome. Copyright
