10 More Steps to Internet Success

.

1) ‘Find a Market’ – Find a market before you decide on a product. If you pick a product first then find out laterthere isn’t a market for it, you will have wasted a lot of time and money. So be sure to look for the market first.Also try to find an area that inspires or excites you. If you find your passion then it’ll be easier to stay motivatedwhen building your business. Use Google to search different keywords.

Try searching with Yahoo to see what else is selling. Check eBay for all their different categories. And useClickBank to look for interesting markets. When you locate a market and find out what people want, all you’ll haveto do is sell it to them. After your first internet project is up and running, and is profitable, then you may want tostart looking for your next market. Remember it’s very easy to jump from one project to the next before the firstone is finished. So try to find a market or project that you really like and stay with it until its making money.

2) ‘Find a Product’ – After finding a market you’ll need to find a product to sell. You could search the internet tosee what other people are selling to get some ideas. Or buy resale rights to a product. Maybe you can sell anaffiliate product. Remember you don’t have to reinvent the wheel. Find a product someone else is selling andmake it a little better, different, lower in price, or add a bonus whenever someone buys from you.

If you choose to sell digital products you will find many extra benefits such as : no shipping or handling, low startup cost, your profit margin will be close to 100%, your customer will get their product right away. And a lot of it canbe set up automatically so there’s less work for you. Make sure to take full advantage of the automationpossibilities of the internet.

3) ‘Get a Domain Name’ – You’ll want to have your own domain name. Try to think of a few different namesbecause your first choices may not be available. Choose a short name and it will be easier for people toremember. If possible get domain names ending with .com or .co.uk. You should also try to get a name to matchyour product. And maybe use keywords in your domain name to get a better listing on search engines.

4) ‘Hosting Companies’ – The purpose of hosting company is to keep your website running properly. They willmake sure everything is working properly so your customers can navigate through it and buy your product orservice. This is a very important responsibility. If your website isn’t working properly or not at all then you arelosing money. You may find some free hosting companies, but you really do get what you pay for. So it may bebetter to use a paid hosting company.

5) ‘Create a Website’ – Create a website so your customers can buy your products 24 hours a day. You will becompeting with lots of other website’s so try to make yours unique. If your site takes a long time to download yourpotential customers will go somewhere else. Graphics are nice to look at but slow to download so have more textand less graphic. Remember its words that sell products.

To get ideas for you website search the web and look for sites that you like. Make sure your website is easy tonavigate. And if you are short on time and have the money you could hire a professional to build your site. Or ifyou want to save money you could do it yourself.

6) ‘Payment Processor’- To collect money for your products you will need a paymentprocessor. Make sure that you accept credit cards because most transactions will bemade with them. You should also consider other options as well, like acceptingcheques and postal orders. And you may want to use PayPal. The more ways you cancollect money the more sales you’ll make. And if you’re selling a digital product youmay want to use ClickBank.

7) ‘Auto responder’ – If you want to make your internet business easier, then you’ll want to automate as much aspossible by using autoresponders. You can automate a lot of your everyday business tasks leaving more time foryou to concentrate on more important things.

Here are a few examples: send out email advertisements to everyone on your list at predetermined intervals.Automate the delivery of several different , mini-courses all at once. Send out sequential emails automaticallywhenever someone buys one of your products. Have all of your digital products sent out automatically. And withautoresponders you can collect names and email addresses and add them to your list of customers and much,much more.

8) ‘Free Advertising’ – This may be a good way to start out if you are limited on funds. But this will be slower thanpaid advertising and will take a lot more time. And time is money so figure out how much you’re worth and monitoryour time. If you are spending a lot of time with free advertising and not getting the results you like, then you maywant to try something else.

Keep in mind when using free advertising someone else may also place their ad with yours and this is not veryprofessional. Also when you join these free advertising lists it usually means everyone on that list can send freeadvertising to you. So you may get a lot of unwanted emails.

9) ‘Paid Advertising’ – You may get better results with paid advertising. And at first you may think blasting your adto as many people as possible will make you the most money. But this really isn’t a good idea for a couple ofreasons.

First a lot of people won’t have an interest in your product so they’ll probably not even read your ad. And secondyou may be accused of spamming which is something you never want to do. So always try placing ads with yourspecific targeted group. And always test your results to make sure that its cost efficient.

10) ‘Collect a List’ – This gets 5 stars. Start collecting your list of names and email addresses as soon aspossible, add to your list often, and cherish your list because it will make you money over and over again.Whenever you need extra money you can send an email promoting a product to your list.

So you’ll want to collect names and emails addresses by offering free e-books or a mini course, by having themjoin your newsletter and of course whenever they buy your great product.
