INTERNET MARKETING

Let's all really think this out together. How can you make money off of a list of nothing but freebie seekers?

I can think of two ways but for the life of me I can't remember the sites that offer this.

1. Give them something for free to download that is hosted on a site that pays you for each download. (anyone have the site URL that offered this?)

2. Offer free items or free services when a freebie seeker completes a trial offer you get paid for. (anyone have the site URL that offered this?)

3. Give them something to click for free that makes you money. (Any ideas?)

What other ways can you think of to make money from a list of nothing but freebie seekers?

  That's an idea. How would you recommend sending them to an adsense page and then getting them to click on an adsense ad?

  You need to get them on that page and have the adsense block in the most "focused" area of the page or (additional blocks) placed near important buttons, etc.

Anyone remember the url to the domain that pays you per download? You upload your free stuff to them and then they pay you a small amount each time someone downloads one of your files.

There are quite a few of these pay-per-download sites. Uploading*com is probably one of the more popular ones. $10 per 1000 US downloads.

Why not teach them something in a free report and then offer a solution to make it much easier and faster to do the same thing?

Freebie seekers WILL spend money but only once they believe they can actually do what you are telling them to do. If you show them how to get more traffic to their website and they actually do the work and se it works they will spend the money to automate the process.

If you recommend AWeber as your #1 autoresponder, then do not recommend other autoresponder company in the same ebook.

People with "Free" in their mind can be difficult to convert to paid visitors, though if you have people totally focused on free, you could send them emails offering them free deals. If they begin to respect and look forward to your information, you could rack up quite a few hits from each one. There are plenty of CPA's out there that will pay for actions that don't involve money.

For example, these are also probably people that would be into coupons too, anything to save money!
