Closing in on getting a clue... I think

Okay, I've learned some big lessons in the last little while. Like how much I don't know, when it comes to the Sales Funnel concept and sales copy, and all that "Stuff".

But now, I'm running into a new series of headaches, and I just want to ask them in bulk and see if the fog starts to clear a little;
Is buying a wp theme worth the investment?

Has anyone ever used WP Mage? Is it worth the money?

what type of product / article / pdf / video is worth mentioning on a squeeze page?

Sales funnel= squeeze page (opt-in) > sales page > affiliate page??? All seperate pages? Outside of a blog? (but in the same domian?)

Is driving traffic to the squeze page with search engine's ppc cost effective?
  • Wouldn't the site then be mostly made up of squeeze pages and sales letters? How in depth does the actual 'site' need to be?
  • Should the content of the site talk about the benifits of the product being promoted? or simply talk about the niche in general.
How much monitization is too much monitization? I don't want to 'flood' the page with banners and external links.

Does navigation need to be on the sales page or squeze page?
That's about it. If anyone has any advice, then I'd be thrilled to hear it.

Thanks for the time!

    Ill have a go some of the questions and let others do the rest.....

    what type of product / article / pdf / video is worth mentioning on a squeeze page?

    My Answer:
    PDF reports work great. Aslong as you provide great content, nothing poor. A 15-20 page one will do, even 12 page.

    Sales funnel= squeeze page (opt-in) > sales page > affiliate page??? All seperate pages? Outside of a blog? (but in the same domian?)

    My Answer:
    Sales page, squeeze page, affiliate page are all different pages. They can exist on the blog if you want, squeeze pages can be in blog posts, so can sales pages.

    My Answer:
    Some prefer to leave them outside of the blow. Affiliate page is somebody elses page.

    Is driving traffic to the squeze page with search engine's ppc cost effective?
    Wouldn't the site then be mostly made up of squeeze pages and sales letters? How in depth does the actual 'site' need to be?

    My Answer:
    You can provide many pages of a website containing keyword researched articles, which has relevance to your product/squeeze page. Host 1 article per page, which targets 1 keyword phrase. (these keywords would have to be researched first). Then redirect the traffic from these content pages back to your squeeze page.

    Should the content of the site talk about the benifits of the product being promoted? or simply talk about the niche in general.


    My Answer:
    You can do keyword articles related to keywords related to your niche, which redirect to the sales page or squeeze page. The benifits of the product can be on the sales page itself,.....with a Teaser sentence on the CONTENT pages.......

    My Answer:
    Somthing like this "if you want to find out about a hot product, Produc X then click on this page -> Sales page.

    How much monitization is too much monitization? I don't want to 'flood' the page with banners and external links.

    My Answer:
    Too much 'blatent' monitization can look a bit 'obvious' from a new visitors point of view, its best to blend it in with the content.


    Does navigation need to be on the sales page or squeze page?

    My Answer:
    You mean a site map, and other page links going out? They can be on the salespage, at the bottom. (if you mean them links you see at the bottom of the sales pages)

    Hope that helps for now.

    Unless, you fully grasp PPC...I'd avoid it. There are other ways to drive quality traffic to your site. Articles being, one of the best way and social marketing is solid as well.

    thanks for the info, it is greatly appreciated. The only traffic I have been getting recently has been from safe-lists, but its not very effective for promoting a product outside of the Internet Marketing Niche.
    Kind of like hunting for Sparrows with a RPG!
