Internet marketing Myths and Truths

[bryan85]

Hey Warriors...

As Internet marketers, we've probably been pitched to countless of times. And now, as we all know it... the Internet mrketing industry is full of hype, myths and misconceptions.

In your opinion, what are some of the biggest IM Myths, lies, misconceptions...whatever you wanna call it... that seriously needs to be addressed and rectified?

"Internet marketing isn't like traditional business."

Actually, it is. I made a go of it several times in the past, but it wasn't until I had a solid grounding in brick-and-mortar business that it "clicked" for me. Business, oddly enough, is business.

[Lou Diamond]

Hello,
the biggest myth that I come across is that it is too late to get into the IM field.
I tell newbies that it really has not even started yet.

[Slin]

"You don't need a list or website to make a full time income online."

Took me a long time to realize that getting both of these things shot up my income a ton.

"You can make a living just being a super affiliate"

Much easier to own your own product, and then advertise affiliate promotions on top of it.

[bryan85]

Go on warriors...keep them coming...

"Online money making niche is saturated ad you need to focus on some other niche". I find it funny to see all IM gurus concentrating more than 75% [some doing it 100%]of their effort on this particular niche while at the same time preaching others not to enter in this niche.

Myth: Anyone can do it.

Reality: Unless you're able to outsource a lot of your business, selling a product or service online requires skills like copywriting, understanding basic elements of html and web design, understanding customer psychology, networking and building relationships with other business people as well as your customers, effectively managing yourself and your time while constantly in the midst of a very distracting work environment (ie: the internet), planning, implementing, tracking and testing marketing campaigns, keyword research and search engine optimization, and a whole bunch of other stuff.

Obviously the specific skills you need will vary depending on the business model you choose, but the notion that ANYBODY can just jump into this and be successful right off the bat is misleading. I think that anybody COULD potentially do this, but the path is never as simple as it's made out to seem.

Biggest myth: "The Internet will come to an end one day."

With a gazillion interconnected computers and cables running everywhere, how in the heck will that happen?

I think this is the 21st century reincarnation of the long-haired dude carrying a sign "The world will end tomorrow"

[BIG Mike]

"Google will do __________ to you if you do __________."

This applies to any number of SEO related activities than genuinely piss me off when I hear them parroted around this forum or from customers who heard it at other forums.

Trust me, anyone who tries to claim anything about what Google will or won't do and they cannot point you to a reference too it on a Google site, is blowing smoke up your butt

Unless they are authorized to speak on Google's behalf, they do not know with absolute certainty, whatsoever.

While those of us who actually spend time researching and testing can make some fairly good educated guesses, that is all they are - guesses...not facts. We look for trends, efficacy of techniques, we poke and prod, but we're not getting our "Facts" from Google.

The other part of this is understanding that Google's services are in a constant state of flux - what might be true at this moment can easily change in an hour, a day a month, etc.

The moral of this mini-rant is to always test and analyze Google related things for yourself rather than bank everything on the abundance of parrots in the Internet Rain Forest .

Deep breath...hold it...I'm better now

To me, the number one myth is that it's "easy".

While it may be relatively easy (compared to, say, sewer-repairing) if you have a certain skill-set, it's not "easy" like it's being marketed.
So many get-rich-quick programs state that money will come flooding in at the push of a button, more or less.

[Shaleniie Devi]

If there's alot of competition or tough competitors, don't get into it.

But seriously competition is a good thing because it means there IS money to be made, a buying market. Don't fear, take it as a challenge and blaze YOUR OWN trail.

*Credit to Kevin - he made me aware of this misconception and got me to straighten out my thoughts through one of his products.

Well, I'm not sure on this one. I mean, even if it doesn't end, it still can deteriorate.

Take radio for an example. I've heard people used to be hooked up on the radio all the time when there was no TV, internet (Mom said. In our country ie; TV and internet came late in India). But after like 30 years (now), radios aren't the rage anymore. I mean, I can't remember the last time I listened to one.

So, if something better than internet comes up like really fast surfing on a cell phone then well, Internet Marketing would be affected. Don't You Think?

(And what if the Google datacenter gets blown up by some terrorist. )

Well, I don't think all of them are myths.

Myth #1 – It all starts with a great web site
Ok.. Maybe this one is.

Myth #2 – More traffic translates to increased profits
Well, if you have more targeted traffic then your profits should increase, I guess.

Myth #3 – Do whatever it takes to build your list

Myth: There are precise formulas and steps one can follow to become successful.

Yes, there are very good guidelines that can teach a lot of what is needed, but at some point, you will need to add your own "ingredients" to the recipes. And that's OK, it's good to be yourself and don't be afraid to be yourself.

IM isn't a maze with only one path, there's an infinite number of paths. You can be lead through parts of the maze, but at some point, you will need to find your own way.

[seanyd]

Make $10,000 a week with this method .....
yes if you`ve been IM for 10 years have a 200,000 list and $7,000 to start with

This is the big unspoken "lie" inherent in so many marketing products. The big marketing trick behind that is that almost everyon believes that the only thing separating them from people who they perceive as being better off that them is that their betters simply know a "secret" that they jealously guard which makes them be able to walk gracefully through life while everyone else struggles.

I wrote pretty extensively about how you can use this secret-loving weakness against prospects on my blog.

Amen. You know what the big joke about Google is? If you build, promote, and market a website as if Google didn't exist at all, you will be rewarded by Google's algorithm. That's ALL THEY WANT is well-built, useful websites that have proper on-page SEO (which is NOT a trick invented to scam search engines by the way, it's just good web design).

Outside of that, who CARES what Google will do to you one way or the other? You build your business for people, and if you do a good job for people, that's all you need. Google will only ever be a go-between.

Originally Posted by ShaneRQR

This actually ties into the same one above, that just anyone can be able to do this once they learn the "secret". You know what the secret is? Learn business, and then work hard. But no one wants to hear that, because it's not "easy" and it's not "fast". But they want it to be, so they tend to believe anyone who says it is. Unscrupulous marketers have no problem confirming a prospects FALSE suspicions as long as it will get the sale.

This is actually one that hurts newbies more than anything because if you don't have enough experience marketing all kinds of stuff, you really have no idea how to pick winners at all. You have no "gut" and no insight to base any decisions on. Fortunately, the internet makes it very easy to tell what's working. Are people paying to run ads that sell the item? If so, it's profitable. Period.

There is no product on earth that has 100% saturation. The more competition there is, the more customers there are in that segment, and the more it will grow (advertising grows a market - more competitors means more ads, means more growth, means more room for you).

[Brad Gosse]

Most of this is a perception issue.

To a guy who loads trucks all day, any job where you sit on your butt is easy

The truth is with a good system anyone CAN do this IF they have basic computer skills and the mental strength to follow through on tasks.

I think what may be a myth to some is reality to others.

Sure you're right. But consider that as easy as "sitting on your butt" seems to a guy who loads a truck all day, that hea's actually WRONG about what's involved. It only looks like that's what we do. I'd be willing to bet that 99% of the guys who load trucks for a living are not big fans of say, technology, or even reading. If you don't like to read and learn every single day, you're going to suck at doing this stuff. Period.

I disagree with you when you put the "why can't just anyone do this" on the quality of the system. It's 100% to do with the quality of the person, and really has nothing at all to do with the system.

If someone can do this, they're going to succeed no matter what, even with the crappiest "system" in the world. Whatever holes it has, they will fill in themselves and make it work or else modify it.

The only possible way to make a "system" that anyone can follow is if you literally boil it down to a step by step specific process that requires no thought or decision making.

I can't think of an environment that is more opposite than that than the internet. It's constantly changing and morphing. If all you have is a brainless system, it may work now, but it can't adapt, and it will break.

Then all of those "anyones" who bought in are stuck, because they system failed and they never actually LEARNED anything, so they can't adapt.

It's really just evolution. If you can't take in new information and adapt to a changing environment, you get shunted to the side and will evenrually fade away and die off.

But of course, the great dilemma here is that everyone has money, and they're going to flush it down the toilet on something, so why not take it from them, and give them what they want (even if what they want is bad for them and isn't really what they NEED)?

Major Myths!

Anyone can write...

Anyone can build a website...

Anyone can "anything"

Edited to remove ambiguity of reply.

[EndGame]

Myth: I too can make countless millions of dollars sitting on my ass in the maldives with the Mac's store's latest offering in laptop form sat on my crotch. From this position, I can peruse the beauty of the maldives coastline, marvel at the beautiful women and their penchant for wearing very little clothes, all the while, clicking refresh on my browser as I watch the power of the Internet suck truck-loads of cash into my bank account.

And then, after a hard day's work at the office, I can go to bed with my exotic super-model girl friend and wake up with $20,000 more USD in my already outrageously over-inflated bank account, and all because I am me and spent $47 on that "tell all, hands-off income blueprint" I bought from that overly-generous underground marketer who was selling his system on clickbank.

The above is the myth that I hate.

[Gary Huynh]

Myth: If you send emails with offers to your list every day, your subscribers will unsubscribe and you will lose income.

Fact: If you build trust in your subscribers first by giving value, then you can send them multiple emails a day if you like. Your income will increase dramatically because you're making more offers to them. I've sent an email to my lists at 350 out of 365 days of the year and did not see a decrease in income. In fact, it exploded!

In some niches, this may not hold true but it certainly is true in the niches I have been involved with. You just have to test on a small scale and then let it loose!

[sweetfranky]

Biggest one for me was, "I have a guy who used to work at Google and knows their Algo, I'll get your website to position 1 in a month!".

That was my first call with an SEO firm... I was so pumped like I had found a secret guy no one knew about. LOL Thank god I did research on him.

[Colin Theriot]

I think you might mean that anyone can LEARN to do these things, but even that isn't really true. Of course, if you're here reading this now, you're halfway there. But that's still not "anyone". And to think that all people have equal potential is a nice thing to entertain, but is far, far from the truth. Some people are astronauts, and some people cook french fries.

It frequently has little to do with intelligence, rather more to do with ability to perform certain actions within certain requirements. And that's the very thing that makes this a limited opportunity.

Some people are just not going to be capable of doing this stuff (physically or mentally), and I put forth the argument that MOST people will never be able to do more than make a small side income from IM if anything at all. Why would it be different than real world businesses?

I'm sure a response to this would be "well if you're motivated, you can do anything!" but what I'm trying to say is that the majority of humanity (at least the part of humanity who could plausibly purchase and attempt to use a course that teaches IM), is physically and mentally incapable of paying attention to the same thing for more than 15 minutes much less maintaining the focus and persistence needed to build and maintain an actual business.

They are literally incapable of achieving the motivation, desire, oomph - whatever you want to call it - to overcome the inertia of everyday life. Now that doesn't stop them from entertaining the delusional daydream that all that separates them from success is some kind of magical "secret knowledge" that anyone can learn (even them!) - but it is just that. A dream.

Just because the internal capabilities that make what we do possible for us are not VISIBLE and necessarily measurable at all, doesn't mean it's any different than the genetic physicality that separates a born athlete from the rest of the general public. But if you're a fat shlub, it will be hard for me to convince you that you can have the body of an olympian god because the visible difference is so striking. However, there are some people that see themselves, and then look at a rich, successful fat schub and think (what's he got that I don't), when it should be obvious. But he can't SEE the difference so he begins to suspect it's something "secret" that he just wasn't lucky enough to be let in on.

And any unscrupulous marketer can come along and simply CONFIRM that suspicion and that is LITERALLY all it takes. Literally. Try it.

All men might be created equal in the eyes of the law, but nature says otherwise.

This just occurred to me too:

I think that it's deeply ironic that the kind of newbies that believe in the age-old myth of "easy money" are the same ones who would lack the capability NEEDED to create "easy money".

In other words, the same mental facilities that are needed to avoid being made a sucker by scammers are the exact same facilities the target customer is lacking, which is what's keeping them from being able to live the lives they want to lead in the first place.

Those same capabilities are what makes some people naturally able to manage the finesse required to succeed at mass marketing on a vast scale, as opposed to an insignificant return on effort.

The same people who succeed dramatically online would likely have succeeded dramatically elsewhere in life if the internet didn't exist. Right? Therefore, the capability for anyone succeeding has really been there all along, so if the internet isn't what gave those people the advantage over the rest of the population, how come it's ALWAYS been this way.

Simple - some people can do it. Most people will never be able to.

Well duh! My fault too for misunderstanding, considering the thread's whole point and all. Consider the above a hearty "I totally agree, and here is about 10000 words on why!" in that case.

I think it's funnier that so many repeat this nonsense about the gurus all making all of their money selling to newbies. Sure, there are a few that do this but most of the big names make the majority of their money elsewhere and then come back to this niche to tell others how to do it. Just because they aren't telling YOU what niches they are in doesn't mean that they aren't in many other niches, does it?

Hi Shaleniie,

I agree with your post. Having competition is good and it will be up to the person to decide on the amount of market share that he want for his business.

[TheRichJerksNet]

Biggest Mthys....

This first one is a real big one that many should stop using to make sales

"Duplicate Content Penalty" - Google will slap you if you have duplicate content.. This has been proven to be wrong many many times over but yet many sales letters still contain that it is real, all in the name of making a few sales..

"No Follow & Do Follow" - This matters a great deal you should only post to do follow sites.. Sorry this also is 100% wrong, these tags mean nothing at all and again this is something else that has been proven many many times.

"Post To High PR Sites Only" - You should only post to sites that have a pr 3 or higher... Sorry here we are again, wrong!! PR means nothing at all and this again has been proven time and time again.

There are many more myths but those are the 3 that come up most on discussions.

Colin,

Not a problem. I was happy to provide you a legitimate opportunity to wax eloquent.

In all fairness to you, you had a 50% chance of divining my intent. The thread title is "Internet marketing Myths and Truths (emphasis added)".

I've since edited the referenced post to remove ambiguity.

[roozak]

I think the biggest myth that I have run into is the fact that, "If you only had that one product, that one system that no one has ever had before you will make a million"...I have been quite successful over the years by doing the rinse and repeat system. Find something that works, rinse and repeat it...its that simple..I have about 200 websites, most make around $100 a month...do the math. There is no "Golden Egg"...there is alot of hard work, blood, sweat and tears...

Enjoy

1. You can learn only from other people who are experienced.
2. You can learn only through your own experience

Ever heard either?

When I first read this, I thought you said you it takes 200 websites to make only $100 a month. Nevermind.

Not IM related, but since you've brought it up...

Myth: Most people have a learning deficiency

That's not true until it's scientifically proven otherwise - there's no logical reason to think so. Out of all professions in the world, which do you think is so easy to learn that even a mentally challenged person can learn? If the myth was true, all of them would be so easy that a monkey could do it. And yet you don't see many monkey carpenters or gardeners, or chefs, etc.

Hey Guys...

Listen... the reason I started this thread is because I find that the Internet marketing community is too overly hyped up... until it now has this mythical and almost creepy aura around it.

just the other day... I was talking to a friend of mine, and he asked me what i did for a living. I told him briefly what I did as an Internet Marketer and his first response was:" Oh... so you spam and scam people?"

Geez...

The problem is... there are too many crappy products out there, almost 50-70% are crap.. agree? And its because of this hypey, scammy nature of IM products, the entire IM now has a foul name.

Think about it... how many times have we come across products that promise you can make money with

No list

No startup capital

No product

No website

Sounds familiar?

Truth is, you cant!!! You'll fail almost instantly.

And as such, as part of my list-building efforts and efforts to try and "save the day", I've decided to create a FREE VIDEO and maybe a report that actually warns people about the various IM Myths and Truths that they must be aware of.

You guys think this'll be great?

While I will agree there are many crappy products and the "Internet Marketer" label has a bad rep (why do people label things?).. This is one reason I do not call myself a internet marketer, no thanks I do not want to label...

But - Reason for me responding to your post is this..

Think about it... how many times have we come across products that promise you can make money with

No list
No startup capital
No product
No website
Sounds familiar?

Truth is, you cant!!! You'll fail almost instantly.

This is not true ... You can create a very successful business with $0 many of us from 10, 12, 15 years ago started with nothing. The same is still true today. I know several that are following a plan posted on my forum that cost $0 and they are finally making some money online.

A list is not a must, it is based on what you want to do.. A List is not for everybody because not everybody wants to deal with it. You can perfectly make a living online in marketing without a list.

No Website - You certainly can make money without a website "if" you know how to use the resources given to you.

No Product - Well you need something to sell, but you certainly can create your own product for free "if" you use the resources given to you.

So I would have to disagree with that last part of your post. It has nothing to do with hype because I do not hype anything. It has everything to do with the facts that you can make a living with no list, no website, and $0 startup..

James

[bryan85]

Well James...

You know what?

I agree with you to a degree... and gee... I am interested in the plan you have on your forum. Anyway I can get access to it?

Think my subscribers would love something like that..

[Steven Wagenheim]

The biggest myth in Internet marketing, IMO, hands down is the one that
says that there is a certain way you have to do things to be successful.

You must build a list

You must use PPC.

WordPress blogs are better than Blogger blogs.

You shouldn't use certain subject lines in your emails.

Traffic Exchanges don't work.

Safelists don't work.

Forum marketing only works if you're an established guru.

I could go on and on but I think you get the picture.

People who spout absolutes are perpetuating the biggest myths about
Internet marketing.

There are no absolutes.

What works for John Doe may not work for Jane Doe.

Marketers need to test things out and see what works for them.

Until that day comes, too many marketers are going to continue to latch
on to the latest flavor of the day thinking that it's going to be the magic
bullet to solve all their problems OR avoid something that might actually
help them because others go spouting off about how bad it is.

Learn to use your head for more than just a hat rack.

[bryan85]

Hey Steve...

Thanks for the post.

As I've mentioned somewhere in this thread, I am creating a video and report (FREE) that'll try to "save the day" and shed light on the real money-making truths in IM.

What do you think?

You think the response will be good? Would you recommend a freebie like that to your list if you have one?

Ultimately... its a noble cause I think, to try and save the IM reputation. I mean think about it.. when people are more aware of the nooks and crannies to making money online and they come to realise the truth, there are 2 potential outcomes here:

1) They leave the IM Game altogether if they think its still too hard... OR...

2) They understand the importance of quality products, which makes our job as Internet/Affiliate Marketers somewhat easier

Care to make a friend?
