I have dabbled in social networking a few months ago and as you state, saw an increase in traffic, but it was of poor quality and did not convert to sales. I wish I had seen your blog before I wasted my time on this effort.

Hi Darren,

As a brand new PPC Newbie, I found your post most interesting. I will be gathering information on PPC for a couple of weeks before diving in. My only concern is how much money do i stand to loose on testing an ad or product as like so many, I am skint lol!

10 Ways To Erupt Your Sales Like A Volcano


1. Save time and money using ad submitters. You
will reach a larger part of your target audience far
more quickly than by manually submitting your ad.

2. Create a good first impression. You will not be
able to sell very many products if your visitors think
your web site looks unprofessional.

3. Stop procrastinating and start finishing all your
business tasks. Do one at a time. Do not get caught
up thinking that you can never get them all done.

4. Develop a relationship with all your visitors and
customers. Tell them how much you appreciate
them visiting your web site or buying your product.

5. Hire a business coach to help improve yourself
and business. They could help increase your sales,
motivate you, balance your workload, etc.

6. Stay away from being too comfortable with your
income or life. You should always be making new
goals for yourself and developing new sales ideas.

7. Stay away from becoming a workaholic. Your
mind needs time away from your business life. This
will help your brain think clearly while working.

8. Create and follow short/long term goals for your
business. The short goals can create early success
and the long term goals can create future success.

9. Look for different ways to prove your business
and products to your audience. You could collect
testimonials, hold surveys, do scientific tests, etc.

10. Try new business ideas and strategies. Do not
be afraid of changing what you're doing. You could
try out technology, advertising, marketing, etc.

this is something to think about.. So far I have had contests and quizzes..may be i should try to have a guest blogger from the community too.

your blog entry caught my eye...
I just got a nice digital camera and it has a microphone so I was looking to add podcasting and YouTube to my marketing

BTW- the links in your blog are not live links, it takes a while to fiddle with the code in this forum..

Search engines will see this and spider it... PM me if you get stuck
