Need some Advise and help'
Share on: 
fb share twitter share gplus share more share

As most of you know I came on line in March and have now been at PIPS for 30 days. I know that this is a feat for me in and of itself. However, I am at a loss for an explanation as to why I am not doing better than I am. I'm not talking about sales I realize that they will come with time. I've completed the 30 day course and gone through it a second time and am getting ready to do it a third time.
My problem is that I'm getting a few visitors and a few hits to my site, but as of today I still have only 2 people besides myself and a friend (that is not really interested) in my opt-in list in Get Response. I keep Traffic Swarm with plenty of points.
What do I need to do to get some people on my mailing list I figure that if there is no one there then my chances of success are non-existent.
I try and post atleast 5 posts per day some times more.
I'm rewriting Bills PLR's and submitting them for publishing as well as posting them in my blogs.


So any advise as to what I need to be doing would be greatly appreciated.

Bright Blessings

You are really rushing, Chrarles. 30 Days is barely even starting.

You need to just keep up blogging, article marketing, learning about SEO for your site and all ad copy, forum posting and traffic exchanges, etc. You need to build and sustain momentum over time.

Subscribers to a free newsletter are really not the object. The newsletter is more to folllow-up with visitors/traffic. So it always goes back to traffic. Unless you buy leads or get them from somewhere (traffic portals) you can build up your subscribers (prospects) as you get targeted traffic.

The best way to do that is as I have explained above, and it will be free traffic from the search engines - at 30 Days you may not even have been indexed by the search engines yet - or if so just barely.

Don't get discouraged - just focus on taking action over time and you will see results.

Shoot for 450 targeted visitors per day - some say that is the 'magic' number where you start to see a response - whether that is a subscriber or much better, a sale, hope for the best!

Hi Charles,

Do you post your articles on article directories?
Do you comment on other peoples blogs?
Do you send free info to your followers on Twitter?
Do you upload videos of your product on Youtube?

These are just some of the ways to draw traffic to your blog and eventually get them to opt in as well.

Take heed, you've only just begun your journey on the internet's highway so stick with it and all will be revealed.

p.s. No idea how to use the spell check on this thing either ;-)

Charles, Breathe...

First off lets talk about the traffic exchanges...

1. Are you using a squeeze page i.e. landing?
2. Are you surfing more then one traffic exchange?
(Charles, when I sent you the link to download the articles
I explained traffic exchanges)

Are you doing what I described in this post?
http://www.warriorforum.com/plug-pro...money-yet.html

It takes time to build momentum for your business,
but once it starts it's like a "Run Away Train"!

Be sure to make a budget, if you have upgraded
in any of the programs maybe downgrade until
your business picks up momentum. You can use
the saved money for business building!

1. SEO
2. Targeted Traffic
3. Educational tools to get your site on the top of Google

Always do something that makes your business move forward
and always strive to learn something new.

Stay positive and stay on path to your goal!

Financial Freedom!

Good luck,

Bill Shultz

Patrician:
You are right I am getting in a hurry and like you told me be for this will take some time. I would be ecstatic if I could get half the 400+ visitors a day to my site. Right now I'm averaging 13. A very long way to go.
But ya I need to be patient but when you have a budget like mine its hard to be.

guyster:
I am currently submitting to EzinArticles and Idea marketers both recommended in the 30 course. As for Twiter and YouTub I'll just say I have a very strong aversion to social sites. Forums are a stretch for me at times.

Bill:
The only squeeze page I use is what Stone gave in the 30 course. Currently I only use Traffic Swarm but am in the process of figuring out from the pages you listed which pages to use when I sign up for the four you mention in your article.
I have had to down grade get response and empowerism and am having to set up a new account with Success University they will not let me down grade I had to cancel then open a new free account.

Ya I needed you are you making money yet, before I signed up for all this.

I appreciate all of your help and will keep plugging along and praying for the miracle I need.

Bright Blessings

Look in the "Marketing" section of your member services area (where the training is, there is a menu at the top left corner) There are lots of different squeeze pages in there.

I have to agree and emphasize the importance of submitting original articles - sometimes the rewritten ones just don't cut it - and submitting them to more sites than just 2. Do a Google search for top article directories to submit to and submit to those as well.

But what I meant to say was also the importance, as mentioned above, of always learning something new. If you learn something new, you have something to write an article about. As soon as you stop learning, you stop having topics to write about.

Hi Liane,

Thats a good point. Sometimes people think that when they do alot of reading but no actual marketing or working on their website that they are not moving their business forward.

Actually quite the opposite....there is much to learn that will help your business just be doing some reading...

Take care
