Most home business owners/internet marketers know there is nothing more important than driving massive traffic their website. Below are several strategies I use that you can implement immediately to get FREE traffic. Some of these strategies will get you immediate traffic and some are more longer term. The key is to use these methods on a consistent basis as consistency is the key!

1. Blogging - a very effective, long term strategy. Blog posts should contain content rich material; which the search engines love. The best places to host a blog are Blogger.com for beginners and Wordpress.com for more advance blogging. My blog is a WordPress blog hosted on my server. Once your blog is created, you can network with other bloggers on sites like blogcatalog.com and mybloglog.com. After you post, you will not only want to send your post feed out to your list, you will also want to submit that post to all of the social bookmarking sites. You can do this in one swoop here. You can post as much as you like, I post once per week while others post daily. Do what feels comfortable to you.
2. Articles – also, a very effective, long term strategy. The key to successful article marketing is not to sell or pitch your business in the article you write, rather provide valuable content. You can write about anything you have an interest in. After article is written, you will want to submit your article to all of the major article websites. Best way to find these article sites is to do a search. One of my articles can be found here. (more…)

Did you know that there are only 3 basic ways to create streams of income. The first one revolves around what most people do every day, work at a JOB (Just Over Broke). You simply exchange time for money. This is the major source of income for approximately 96% of the population, giving 8 - 10 hours or more per day, 5 - 6 days per week in return for an income that rarely meets your needs. If you take into consideration the time it takes you to commute to and from work with no financial gain, then that is more time you are using out of your week that has no real benefit to you financially. Your attempts to save money can be a long and arduous process, and is often achieved at the expense of your health, your family and your lifestyle.

The second source of income for approximately 3% of the population is made by investing. Some people invest in their own business (which can also be considered a fourth stream of income - a brick & mortar business owner) or someone else’s, while others enter the real estate market or dabble in Wall St. Very few move to this level of income because they do not understand how it works nor do they care to learn. They are happy drifting along with whatever life throws their way. Others will never consider this as they are fearful of losing the little they already have and hold many self limiting beliefs that prevent them from stepping outside their comfort zone.

Home based business is the 3rd source of income and is the most effective, in my opinion. Only 1% of the population ever achieve this level at a full time status. It’s sad because anyone can achieve a full-time income from home if they so desire. The only thing that will prevent you from achieving this level of income are the thoughts you hold around whether you think you can or think you can’t. If you learn to believe to have total faith in yourself, then you can have the best of everything, as anything is truly possible.

The Web 2.0 social media revolution is in full swing. Are prospects finding your website?

As an entrepreneur, how do you make your business website stand out amongst 435 million other websites and more than 1 million blogs competing for your audience’s attention?

It’s not as hard as you might think.

To begin, let’s look at the demographics of the basic Web 2.0 social networking sites, this will give you an idea on how to position your message to the Web 2.0 World:

• Myspace;
• Facebook;
• YouTube.

The Web 2.0 Social Networking Revolution

Web 2.0 is a real revolution on the Internet. And this revolution doesn’t just consist of college kids…

• 62% of MySpace visitors are older than 25 (40% are 35+), and 83% are making over $30,000 a year. 19% are making $100,000 and up;
• On Facebook.com 46% are over 25 and 34% are 35+, and they’ve got deep pockets. 88% make more than $30,000 and 23% make $100,000 or more.

In the years ahead these numbers will get even more exciting…

• Social media giant Facebook is currently ADDING a million 25+ (non-student) adults per week to their rosters. That’s 52 million new users a year;
• YouTube gets over 50 million unique visitors per month. That equals over half a billion a year;
• Facebook and MySpace have the equal daily traffic of Google. Experts predict within the next year they will DOUBLE the daily traffic of Google search.

So your prospects are there, the traffic is there and the spending power is there. So NOW is the time you want to establish your presence on the social networking websites.

Web 2.0 Strategy: Why You Should Be a Connoisseur and NOT a Marketer

As a website owner, how should you position your message in the Web 2.0 world?

The increasingly savvy buying public will quickly shun marketers. Internet readers want information from the Internet. They don’t want advertising, marketing, or a “pitch”.

According to Schefren in his Attention Age Doctrine, the solution is to become a social media “Connoisseur”.

A Connoisseur is a trusted authority, like a friend, on the social media websites. As you gain their trust, your audience will return to you over and over again wanting to invest in your advice.

Five Steps to Becoming a Social Media Connoisseur

Social Media Maven Step 1: Get in the Game

Begin blogging immediately. Create a video explaining how to solve a problem and put it on YouTube, MySpace, and Facebook with links back to your main website. Just those two things alone will establish more Web 2.0 presence than 90% of your competition.

Social Media Maven Step 2: Share your passion

Build your Web 2.0 website around your passions and expertise. Thirty-two year old Gary Vaynerchuk transformed his wine knowledge to his video blog, http://Tv.Winelibrary.com . It now has thousands of subscribers and does $50 million dollars a year in wine sales.

Social Media Maven Step 3: Be Controversial

Your audience will remember you more when you challenge the status quo. Controversy sells. Think like the tabloids and the local news channels here. For example, Web 2.0 Business Coach Rich Schefren challenges traditional marketing wisdom in each release of his Attention Age Doctrine special reports at http://attentionage.net/doctrine .

Social Media Maven Step 4: Create World Class Content

You will drive repeat traffic to your website by offering top notch “how to” information. Gary’s wine tastings are highly educational on the benefits of wine, how to cook with wine, and how to choose a wine for your special occasion. Rich’s reports teach Web 2.0 marketing principles.

Remember, as soon as your audience feels that you are “pitching” them, you’ve lost them. So provide content not advertising.

Social Media Maven Step 5: Engage in the Conversation

Web 2.0 is a dialogue, not a monologue. Internet businesses profit more when they observe and listen to their communities first before they broadcast their messages. Savvy connoisseurs such as Gary and Rich encourage their audience to ask questions. The answers to these questions then become part of their user-generated content.

How Marketing in a Web 2.0 Social Media Environment Is Exhilarating.

Visualize it like a big radio or television station or movie screen where you’re the star. You’re building a fan base so you need to entertain, inform, and deliver consistently for your audience.

You have more publishing power at your fingertips right now than at any time in history.

Use it.

Share your passions.

Reveal your trials and tribulations.

Tell your story.

Watch how quickly your audience builds.

10 Surefire Ways to Kill
Your Crabby Mood

Having a happy day is well within your reach even if you are feeling totally down in the dumps. Being happy is a choice and there are things you can do to make it happen. Just like when you feel a decrease in energy, the best thing to do is to get your body moving - the same thing is true with cultivating happiness. You must literally pick yourself up and get moving on some actions that will create happiness.

1. Fight the Urge to Mope. Get committed. This is the first step. Do you want to be happy or do you want to wallow in bad feelings? When you’re ready to be happy, just make the choice and go with it.

2. Smile. Smile at everyone you meet today. It’s OK to fake it at first if you need to, but pretty soon it will be real and it will make you feel good. As you feel yourself becoming happy, remember not to fight it!

3. Laugh. Tell some jokes. Seek out jokes, funny people, and funny videos. Be silly. Crack yourself up. Just start laughing. That alone can make you laugh. And when you laugh you release your body’s own natural opiates: endorphins which make you feel good. Here is a link to more info on Laughing Yoga where all you do is laugh! And here’s a video on it to check out:

5. Count Your Blessings. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Heard it before, right? Well have you done it? It works. List 50 things for which you’re grateful and without which your life would be worse. Go ahead. Try it!

6. Make Someone Else Happy. Who could you cheer up today? Who could you thank or compliment? Who could you send a quick handwritten note to? You can really have fun with this, so go ahead and do it!

7. Take an Action Step on a Goal. If there is a goal you’ve been dreaming about for a while, take the first or next step today. This will give you a feeling of control over your life and that will make you feel good. Just one step is all it takes and then plan the step you’ll take tomorrow!

8. Exercise. Moving your body creates endorphins which make you feel good. Exercise will also make you breathe more deeply activating your lymph system which is the body’s waste removal engine. Removing toxins through exercise will make you feel great!

9. Music. Get a good dose of your favorite music. Sing along! Dance! Play some air guitar. Heck, get in your car and sing at the top of your lungs! Silly, you say? That’s the whole idea! Have some fun. Enjoy!

10. Treat Yourself. Pick a little something and treat yourself to it. Maybe some chocolate cake, a movie, or something else that will make you smile.

The subconscious mind is a very powerful thing. If you have a negative or lazy attitude about you, then you will have no choice but to be negative or lazy. If you mope around and complain then you will achieve nothing. If, on the other hand, you are upbeat and cheerful, then you will generally have a good day and achieve quite a lot. If you dress successfully, people will treat you better than if you dress like a bum. Sad fact I know, but it’s the truth in today’s society.

I found years ago that in a home business you need to put just as much effort into your appearance and your attitude, if not more, as you did when working in secular employment. I’ve had to learn to improve my telephone manner, my enthusiasm on the phone and, by looking at myself in a mirror while speaking, I realized why I couldn’t sell anything. I needed a check up from the head up!

With a home based business, if you dress business casual, comb your hair, brush your teeth and smile you will then start to feel like a professional. It’s this feeling that will come across on the phone and the more confidence you have the faster your business will grow.

Working from home should be exciting, after all how many people can say that their daily commute consists of going from their bedroom to across the hall to their home office? Working from home on the Internet should be something you do with pride. I have always been consistent in my actions and conscientiously believe and expect the rewards for my efforts to be granted to me.

You should try and answer emails within 24 hours, minimum. The maximum time frame you would want to wait to respond is 48 hours. To accomplish this you will want to set aside time each day just to respond to emails. Some say three times a day, morning, mid afternoon, and evening is best as it ensures everyone gets a timely response.

There is immense satisfaction in seeing people answer your ads, having people respond to your flyers, having prospects ask about your products & opportunity and respond in a positive way. Having people buy your products and assisting them in starting a home business should give you a great sense that you are helping someone improve their lot in life.

Make sure you are courteous and professional. There are some times you just don’t feel like answering a question that has the answer plainly on your website or in a sales letter, or some question you feel is irrelevant or foolish. The urge to send a fiery response may be there. If you do not feel you can politely and professionally answer, take a break. Come back after you took some time to cool down. Remember, the customer who asked the question may be basing their decision to get involved with you on your answer, so you want to be as thorough and polite as possible when answering. Do not push away a customer or potential customer with a hasty emotional response.

In a home based business your chief aims are to sell your products and teach others to duplicate your success. Out of this can come strong bonds of friendship, as your team develops and your network grows. There is immense satisfaction in running a successful Home Based Business.
