Fantastic idea!

Looking forward to helping out, should be a great resource for newbies.

I've learned that traffic is very very very hard to come by

Cool! I need it! I need it. It's kinda confusing...

Hi I would like to learn how to connect a landing page to a affiliate offer.

I learned about how to properly make money with solo ads. Before, I thought I should just send people straight to an affiliate offer, but I learned it is better to pass them through a squeeze page first. Not only does it build your email list, it also generally results in more sales.

Traffic - is the only problem in every online business.

Hello ,
I'm really beginner in this journey ,
I would love to know any important tips or tutorials to start earning from adsence arbitrage and viral fb ads ,
I would love to know if there any simple or trick to join maxbounty as they reject me before

Well this is not what i learn this week but as an internet marketer over few years which i think is important for newbie to know. Choose one online income method, stay focus with one method and persistent. Is not as easy as you think especially you are browsing through websites and forums people are sharing their success stories with different method of online income.

Use whatever you earned and invest in marketing campaign or software that help you boost your productivity or can help scale up your business.

Nah, getting traffic is easy. Getting profitable traffic can be trickier, especially if you plan to rely on free methods only.

If all you want is to make the traffic counter spin, just hint that you have images of some celebrity's naughty bits.

Getting free targeted traffic relies on other people/sites taking action on your behalf. Search traffic depends on not only getting your listing ranked high enough to see it, but also beating out all the other options on that results page.

Blog commenting depends on both the blog owner accepting your comment and other readers recognizing its value and clicking through.

Same with guest posting or its offline equivalent, submitting articles and/or press releases to offline publications. First you have to get past the blog owner or editor, then depend on people reading your stuff and clicking through to get more from you.

All of these methods, and many others like them, can and do work - if you have both the skill and patience to let them.

Paid traffic, be it pay-per-click, banner buys, print ads, classifieds, etc. can bring you all the traffic you can afford, quickly and reliably. But, again, there's a skill set involved. If you don't have either the skills or deep enough pockets, getting paid traffic that makes a profit can be hard.

The good news is that once you have the skills, traffic that converts can be very, very, very easy. And if you can run paid traffic that kicks back more than a dollar for every dollar you put in, it's better than free.

Give that man a cigar!

I've been trying to convey this to people for years with very little success.

It's an investment, not an exspense.

The Power of Transformational Marketing: https://toprightpartners.com/people-2/


Dave Sutton is a global authority today on Transformational Marketing- enabling businesses to reach, connect and engage with customers in a way that gives them a reason to care, a reason to buy, a reason to advocate and, most important of all, a reason to stay.

How to Create a Compelling Six-Second Brand Story?



Give people a reason to care, a reason to buy, and a reason to stay. People don't buy from making logical, rational buying decisions. They make emotional decisions and then justify those decisions by rationalizing them with facts.

The next step is to connect with your customers through channels that they use, across every touchpoint in the buyer's' journey.

Your customer is not only at the center of the story but also at the center of your strategy.

You have about six seconds to tell your brand story and make a connection with your customer.
"Good marketers tell brand stories; great marketers tell them with purpose."

Difference Between "What" and "Why"
Most marketers focus on the "What" the product and its functionalities

customers are willing to know "Why"

"Why" should they listen to your story?
"Why" that product is so different than all the other options available
"Why" does it matter to them. For customers
"Why" should a customer care?
"Why" should they listen to your story?

1. Start with the Mind of the Customer
2. Simplify a Complicated Issue or Problem
3. Stir Emotion in the Consumer's Mind
4. Be Memorable in Striking a Chord that Prompts an Internal Question
5. Make your Customer the Hero of the Story[/B]



Wish You Best of Luck

I learned more about retargeting.

Yes I *thought* I knew what I wanted to achieve and how to do it.

I'd been retargeting people based on time on site but really hadn't segmented further than that.

I learned how to add people to lists and segment them via content they had viewed and how to build out these segmented lists via using one keyword in each "slug" so it could become a set and forget system of building the segmented list.

Each time you write some new content just include the keyword in your slug and you add future viewers to you segmented topic to a specific list

For example.

If you include a specific keyword in your url you can leverage that to segment your list.

Sure it seems simple but unless you see how that functions inside of Facebook or adwords for a real situation you just don't realise what is really going on.

Couple that with some segmentation to the email list say by using Active Campaign and you can email and retarget very sweetly to put the right message in front of the interested prospect rather than sending a generic email and a generic ad.

Simple but cool.

Add that to your wider targeted audience and you lower acquisition costs and also don't burnt out a prospect by sending the wrong message or wasting the pixel by not refining your ad to match the market.

Anyway that was one thing I picked up this week.

Best regards,

Beginner here and yeah, trying to find and figure out a lot- For starters:
1) Does anyone know a good CPA course that uses YouTube to promote network offers but don't necessarily have to make videos or use paid traffic?
2) Anyone used CPA Ads Academy and (besides being ppc) is it a good place to start. Thanks

I have learnt about affiliate marketing and now i am eager to learn this in depth.

Started to test FB ads for my new marketing blog. Gained some useful skills in "marketing for marketers"

I learned the incredible importance of getting feedback on a product before I release it.

I learned google loves google. Send as many google properties to your desired destination as possible.

Looking forward to learning a lot and helping out whare I can.
