Article Marketing: 7 Steps to a Great Author Resource Box That Drives Targeted Traffic to Your Site

Syndicating your articles online, also referred to as article marketing, is the #1 way to drive traffic back to your web site, if done correctly using an author resource box. Why? Because content is king in this new age of Internet marketing. While I've always advocated great content as a part of your marketing strategy, it's even more vital today as the search engines continue to change and update their algorithms to determine what sites they display on the first page of a search.

Social Networking: 10 Steps to Finding Your Target Market in Facebook

Everyone is talking about social networking, and many claim social networking to be the panacea for all of your marketing ills. Marketing on social networking sites like Facebook, Linkedin, and Twitter can help you increase the size of your email list and help you grow your business. The key to success with this strategy is making sure that members of your target market are in your network. Facebook is very strict and very particular about how its participants contact each other. Facebook limits the number of new invitations that can be sent in a given day or week.

How to Market Benefits vs Features

One of the most difficult concepts to grasp for online business owners who are writing their own sales copy is to write about the benefits of your product/service, rather than the features. Even though this skill is critically important, I would guess that less than 10% of business owners truly understand it. Not surprisingly, it's also the primary reason that so many marketing campaigns fail. Think about the products and services that you buy. Why did you purchase them?

3 Ways to Improve Customer Service with Help Desk Software

When you start your online business, you have very few customer service issues. Those that do emerge can usually be handled fairly easily via email or a phone call, and you'll probably resolve most of these yourself. However, as your business grows and you begin to develop products and programs, the number of customer service issues increases, as well. You then begin to look for a way to delegate this task, but if you don't have procedures outlined for how you have handled these issues in the past, it becomes difficult to train your team on carrying out these procedures.

13 Essential Wordpress Plug-ins for Every Wordpress Installation

Now that I've decided to use this platform, I needed to determine which plug-ins were most essential to my site's success.

Do You Use Your Introversion as An Excuse for Not Marketing Yourself?

I've often been complimented on my ability to be fearless. No, I've never skydived from a plane or bungee-jumped from a bridge, but I have taken chances and risks in my life that friends told me that they'd never take. Most surprising was that I'd do these things given my natural introverted personality. However, in my early years, I fought my introversion as hard as I could, feeling that those who acted in extroverted ways got more rewards. I continuously challenged myself and my introversion.

ECourse Marketing: 10 Steps to Triple Your Prospect Conversions with an Email Mini-Course

For years, I've been giving away a PDF ebook as my client attraction device to entice prospects to sign up for my list. This strategy has served me well as a way to grow my list. However, what I've discovered during that time is that many people download my ebook and then never open it. So, as you might imagine, my rate of converting a customer prospect to a buyer isn't as high as I'd like.

Twitter Marketing: How to be Follow-Worthy on Twitter

I often get asked the question, "How do I get more followers on Twitter?" Many of my clients want to pay a sum of money for the latest scheme to get them 10,000 new followers in 24 hours or some such nonsense as that. As in all marketing strategies, it's not the number that counts. Rather, it's the quality in the numbers that really matters. So, 10,000 followers who are not members of your target market are fairly useless to you.

7 Reasons Why an Online Business is the PERFECT Business for Introverts

I recently realized that much of my 1970's childhood upbringing both enhanced my natural tendency toward introversion and prepared me to own a virtual online business. I grew up out in the country, about 10 miles out of town. My friends lived 10 miles from town in other directions (about 20 miles from me), and my parents, having raised my siblings and me with a Depression-era mentality, didn't believe it was necessary to chauffeur us from place-to-place like parents do today.
