Experience A Sales Breakthrough With These 10 Unique Marketing Ideas

We are all looking for ways to increase our web traffic and sales. If you have been a faithful reader and have been applying the tips you should see increases in your traffic. However one can never have too much traffic to their web site, so here are 10 more Breakthrough Ideas for your Web Marketing Campaign.


1. Create a directory of web sites on a specific topic. Give people the option of adding the
directory to their web site by linking to it. Put your business advertisement at the top of the
director's home page. This technique will get lots of people to link to your web site and give you
free advertising.

2. Do you have a product or service that doesn't sell good? Offer it as a free bonus for someone
else's product or service. Get free advertising by placing your web site or business ad on the
product or in the product package.

3. Trade autoresponder ads with other businesses. If both of you send out information with auto-
responders just exchange a small classified ad to put at the bottom or top of each other's
autoresponder message.

4. Start a free tip line. Offer a free daily, weekly, or monthly tip recorded on your voice mail. The
tips should be related to your business. Include your ad for your web site or business at the
beginning or end of your message.

5. Exchange content with other web sites and ezines. You could trade articles, top ten lists, etc.
Both parties could include a resource box at the end of the content.

6. Offer to insert ads into your product package for other businesses. Just ask, in return that they
do the same for your business. You should only trade insert ads with businesses that have the
same target audience.

7. Offer a free daily class in your web site's chat room. The class should be related to the subject
of your business or web site. This will get people to visit your web site everyday.

8. Do you have a product that doesn't sell good? Offer it as a free bonus for another businesses
product or service. You'll get free advertising by placing your web site or business ad on the free
bonus.

9. Place different emotional response ads for the same product or service all over your web site.
One ad may hit their hot button to buy more than another ad.

10. Publish your ezine in e-book format. You could offer a larger number of articles per issue.
It also allows you to include graphics with your ezine. Your advertising revenue would increase
because you could charge businesses for large color ads.

Again in order for these to work, you must put them into action. After all a plan with out action isn't worth the paper it's written on. Come back next week for more tricks and tips.

Need To Get FREE Advertising? Try These 5 Interesting Techniques

Need To Get FREE Advertising? Try These 5 Interesting Techniques

Ah yes the cost of advertising can be a killer to Home-based and Small businesses. However there are many ways to cut down the costs to almost $0. Let's face it every dollar counts in this tight economy (or in a good economy as well). So here are some techniques that won't cost you and extra penny.

1. Give Testimonials
When you purchase a product or service and it exceeds your expectations e-mail the business a testimonial. Tell them in the testimonial the benefits you got from the product or service. Give them permission to publish the testimonial on the web site if they include your sig file at the end.


2. Leave A Message
When you visit a web site with a discussion board leave a message. You could post a question, interesting content or a compliment about their web site. Include your signature file at the end of the message. Some discussion boards let you post your banner ad or text link.


3. Sign Guest Books
When you visit a well designed web site leave a compliment on their guest book. You could give them a compliment on their content, ease of navigation, graphics etc. When you post your compliment include your sig file so other people will see it when they sign the guest book.


4. Write A Review
When you visit a web site you enjoyed a lot write a review for the web site Write about the benefits you gain from the site, the web site design, interesting online services it offers etc. E-mail the review to the web site. Tell them they can publish it on their web site if they include your resource box at the end.

5. Send An E-mail To The Editor
When you read a good article or enjoy a certain ezine, e-mail a compliment to the editor. Give the editor permission to publish the compliment in their ezine if they include your signature file at the end. The editor may post it on his or her web site.

Obviously as with all advertising it takes time to build up the recognition factor, but if you keep on plugging away and mixing in these techniques your traffic will increase and you will be on your way to success. Just don't give up or quit too early.

Wonder Why People Won't Visit Your Web Site? Here's 10 Possible Reasons

Traffic, traffic traffic is the mantra of the new age. We all want it. We all need it. We have a great site, wonderful products, we built it but why won't they come? There are many reasons and possibilities, here are 10 possible reasons ( with hints of how to reverse the trend).

1. You don't offer free original content. It's important to give your visitors information they can't find anywhere else. If you're the only source for a certain type of information, people will flock to your web site.

2. You don't offer free software. Most people like to find good deals on software for their computers. If
the software is free, that is even better.

3. You don't offer a free contest or sweepstakes. It's a fact, people like to win things. If you can fulfill that need, people will stop by to visit.

4. You don't offer a free directory. Create a directory of web sites on a particular topic that is related to your target audience. People will visit because they will find what they're looking for, all in one place.

5. You don't offer a free ezine. Most people love to get free information that they're interested in emailed to them on a regular basis. This saves them time and money.

6. You don't offer a free community. People like to have a place were they can have discussions with
others on a particular subject. You could add a chat room or message board to your web site.

7. You don't offer a free affiliate program. One of people's basic needs to survive is money. When you
offer them a free opportunity to make money they'll line up to visit your web site.

8. You don't offer a free online utility. When you offer a utility that can solve a problem, people will visit your web site. The utility could be a free autoresponder, e-mail account, search engine submission, etc.

9. You don't offer free current information. Supply news stories related to your web site. People want
up-to-date news on the topics they are interested in. They will also be interested in visiting your web site.

10. You don't offer free samples of your product or service. Have you ever been to a store and you
jumped at the chance to get a free sample of food? This same concept will also attract people to visit
your web site.

These are just an example of what you can do to help drive traffic to your site. Try these out, and be sure to check out more resources at renspubhouse.com.
