I am not getting the third step

11 replies
hey there, I know there are three steps to make money online:

1. Create a product in hungry market.
2. Set up sales page
3. Drive Traffic


I can do the two steps because things are in my hands, but getting traffic is something that is the most crucial one, and guess what It's the most difficult one too.

I am tired of writing articles, and PPC or paid advertisement looks really scary as I am on limited budget. What should I do?

      I was going to say the same thing.

      People often overlook how powerful forum posting can be. It's a great way to generate some decent traffic initially. (While you're working on your SEO.)

      Especially in the dating niche. There are plenty of dating forums / groups out there. Just join a handful and start making helpful posts on each. Do it consistently and the traffic will start to flow in.

    Find forums in your niche and contribute with good content....just like you are doing here...

    I have also heard that PPC on the site PlentyOfFish is better for a niche like yours than google or yahoo...

    Have you looked into that?

    It would be optimal if you knew enough SEO to rank your site high in google for relevant keywords but if that's not the case, you could try forums as drumguru mentions as well as social networks like facebook, youtube especially for your niche.

      You can also get yourself some dofollow backlinks, etc. But I'd start with the dating forum posting - that's a good tip. You could also give answers at Yahoo Answers with your product as the reference (Just don't overdo it or you'll be blocked).

      Ill cut directly to the chase. Go to ebay and buy some facebook coupons. Adwords too. Make new accounts, and start promoting your site. Utilize offline methods as well for local seo. Dont just rely on online methods.

      Facebook is the better target option due to their advertising platform. PM me if you need more help.

    If you are in the dating niche, you will get better results if you do a lot of promotion offline.

    If you can do street level demonstration and coaching - that's great

    Speaking at events is a great way to make more money. You can also sell those products and services at events. You can even create your own dating seminars.

    If you restrict yourself to the internet, you will fight an uphill battle. It's just so saturated.

    On the other hand, if you apply my advice, you will start getting more traction from the online world as well.

    I hope your stuff is super specific too -if it's too generic, you will struggle. Pick a niche, within a niche, within a niche - try that for a couple of months - your results will sky rocket. Example "How to pick-up black girls in night clubs" or "Startbucks Dating Mastery"

    I wouldn't mess with the Adwords coupons. I would be too scared of getting the big BAN. I know a lot of people buy coupons for Adwords (or at least that is what I've been reading), but Google will find out and Ban.
