What % of IM'ers promote their own site or landing page?

6 replies
I'm brainstorming a few ideas and I was just curious what you all think about this ...

If you had to guess, what percentage of IM'ers do you think promote their own website, blog or landing pages vs. those that just promote a "replicated" or affiliate page provided by a biz opp that they have no control over?

    I'm not making much sense of the Q to be honest, but I'd say most people who have a list.. promote offers more then their own ones..

    Just due to the fact you can only launch so many products in a year.. where as there's other launches going off all the time.

    It depends on what niche too I guess! and how they market etc... a tough one indeed! lol

      I'm also not certain what you're asking, here (your post seems to be asking a completely different question from your title?), but I think the proportion of marketers promoting "replicated company pages" of the type you're referring to is very small. I very rarely see them.

      (Company/replicated pages can be hosted either on the company's site, or on the marketer's own site, by the way).

      I think there's a substantial turnover of them, but they're mostly very temporary, anyway, and their lack of long-term survival (compared with that of other types of sites commonly promoted) is another reason for there not being so many of them. Even in business opportunities that make available company replicated pages, the affiliates/distributors who know what they're doing tend to use their own landing pages, anyway: in the long run, it makes little sense to promote a page you don't yourself own or control. That's a kind of "trap for the unwary", really.

    Promoting offers is good, but not as lucrative as promoting your own offers. I'd say way too many promote other peoples offers.

    I agree. I promote a lot of PLR products and find it far more productive than affiliate offers.

    I use a squeeze page to get the customers contact information and then I stay in touch

    with them with an autoresponder.

    It's impossible to answer, everyone is different. So all you may read in here would a pure speculation.

    I did a survey almost 9 years ago and if I remember right, only 12% of IMers had a domain of their own. Since I've developed a way to supply hosted product websites
    That puts the member in control of the branding, price, OTO creation with a mouse click, all redirects and even squeeze pages that they can connect their autoresponder to I haven't thought about supplying tools for web design to make it easy for people to make their own pages.

    I think I was the first to create a squeeze page generator, but back then it was called a capture page generator because the term squeeze page had not been coined.

    Just some old data that I collected back in the day.

    Best regards,
