Thank you !

That is probably the most competitive niche available, $75 isn't going to get you anywhere, especially PPC.

Thanks

Lander needs work, I wouldn't run that yet, conversion will be low anyway. Go on offervault.com I think there' still a couple weight loss lead gens up there you can look at for design.

You also have some wording errors on your thank you page Fast Loss Weight | FREE Report !

There should be some type of monetization there, one time offer, reg path, redirect to a presell page etc.

Before you spend a penny you need to get your landing page in shape. Ask yourself why, with the info you have up there now, would anyone want to subscribe.

You need to tease your visitors a bit with some of the goodies in the report. Create a compelling headline and then offer a half-dozen benefit-oriented bullet points on the page to get people to subscribe. Good luck!

One more thing, create a Warrior Forum sig file and put your live link in it.

Thanks

PPC in that nice runs you about $2.50 per click. If your landing page converts with 10% you will wind up with 3 subscribers.

If you are a pro and design an excellent landing page, you can get it up to 50% conversion. $75 invested will give you 30 clicks for $2.50 a click. That would result in 15 subscribers.

Wow!

A good list will get a 10% click rate on a mailing. So, you will get 1.5 click per mailing. Then you should expect 10% conversion (If the offer is excellent). Well, 10% of 0.15 click will not get you a conversion anyhow.

I guess you better trash your free $75 Adwords coupon. If those things could make you rich everybody would be rich.

If you want to get started in the weight loss niche, there is only one option that costs very little and is proven to be successful:

Write and publish a weight loss book.

Then publish that book on Kindle which costs nothing.

Thanks

Dude no offense but where are you getting those numbers from?

I get solid weight loss traffic for a lot less than $2.50 per click and my self generated email data avg CTR's are way above 10%

There's no one book of facts and figures on clicks, click thru rate, or conversion rate.

Saying there's only one option to profit in the weight loss niche cheaply is not true at all, and out of all the ones I've tested over the years and made work, none have to do with writing an ebook for kindle.

15 subscribers, any subscribers is worth having and learning from as he grows. The lander and process sucks, and his mailing will probably suck for awhile to, but that's the name of the game. If you are going to learn anything in this business it should be buying traffic and monetizing the data even if it's $75 at a time.

I would invest in a better domain name first off because domains are very important to SEO and brandability.

Not a direct answer to your question but what is your total marketing budget? $75 will, even if you do get traffic, grow your website very very slowly (no data, but years?). You will need a lot of people before your website can monetize, and forget about "word of mouth" marketing, you will usually need to use money to push that (I know exceptions exist).

If you want a good list, do some DirectCPV. It is cheap and you can target specific url's which is less expensive than CPC. If you get it right you could get a good list.

For fitness try to advertise on fitness websites using CPV. Go to DirectCPV.com to learn more about how it works...

I've been using a lot of free traffic mostly. But have started using
some banner ads as well with great results.

I would recommend as some have above to tighten up the squeeze page a bit.

"Learn how to fast loss weight easily and 100% free !"

that line doesnt make sense to me and your access button is missing an
S

You better to target on SEO. $75 is a very low budget for this keyword with PPC. Sometimes you can spend around $30 at Fiverr to get well known SEO services. Give a try and wait 2-3 weeks to calculate ROI. If it's successful scale it.

$75 is not going to get you very far at all, especially with PPV or PPC. I'd suggest trying to optimize your site for organic traffic - get good backlinks to it (you should be able to get a decent amount of high quality ones for $75) and optimize your on-site content for the keywords you want to rank for.

Then you should write 50 articles yourself. In such a niche, you should be able to hit Google page one immediately if you choose the right keywords.

Then pay a VA to resubmit teach one to 20 directories. I am about to do this myself and on the lookout for a VA. I am looking at WF first but the responses I've received so far have been mainly amateur which is a shame.

So I would suggest you do what I may end up doing which is to go to a VA firm or VA manager, give him these requirements and let them/him manage someone in a team to perform this task. From what I can gather, $75 could get you someone doing a month's work so that is enough for those 50x20 submissions and still have time left over.

I will follow your advice, I'll publish a lot of high quality articles, get backlinks and do SEO.

@Chris Kent : Yeah, I maybe should find a much less competive keyword. I followed the "Mass Money Makers" system from Matt Bacak, and I thought that this keyword would be good.

The issue here is that the OP seems to still be relatively new at IM, and using just about any kind of SEO software entails risks, specifically overdoing it and incurring Google's wrath. Without sufficient SEO experience, using software may not be the best route to take, at least not initially.

I think with doing some marketing with PPC you should also try some free marketing techniques like forum posts, classified ads, and others. As these techniques also bring many visitors to your site, which can turn them into your subscribers.

Sounds like you're focusing on SEO based on what your website looks like. Piggyback off of that move. Work on some more SEO. Get a day job and use those funds to outsource your SEO work. In a few months, you should be at the top of the search engines and raking in a whole lot of cash.

haa, I came real close to just saying "are you out of your mind" reply. But, I'd rather say, stop attempting to commit to money investment roadblocks and expecting immediate return from peanuts.

Commit yourself to figuring out how this Internet marketing process really works. Write down today's date and make a pact with yourself that you're going to jump into this with all 4's and go balls-out for 18 hours a day for an entire year! Then come back to me and tell me how your ride has been.
