money2 Why Paying for Traffic is a Smart MoveYou’ll hear and read a lot about the success stories of the people who hit it big on the internet, but with that comes twice the number of stories of people who failed to make it. It’s true, a lot of people have tried and failed to maintain their online businesses, but we continue to draw inspiration from the handful of people who have succeeded.

How did they do it? Was it pure luck? Like our other achievements in life, it takes passion, determination, hard work… and sometimes, money. Here’s why paying for traffic is a smart move and why it’s worth it. It’s proof that investing can help fuel success in online businesses.

Traffic is one of foundations of a successful online business. It’s actually the most important factor, the chosen one! That’s because traffic is the reason why an online business gets sales. Think of it this way, in the World Wide Web, traffic is just like the walk-in customers in retail stores, the more walk-in customers your online business has, the higher your chances of selling your products.

Despite the fact that not every customer buys a product, there’s just no denying that the more customers you have, the more possible purchases you’ll be able to get. It’s common knowledge and it’s the reality online businesses face every day it’s also why paying for traffic is a smart move.

Keeping the phrase “You have to lose some to gain some” in mind, paying for traffic simply means you would have to spend some money to actually gain more money in return. So how do you spend money on traffic? By advertising, of course. When you advertise your online business, you are simply making your business known to all and with that come the flow of traffic to your site.

You know why paying for traffic is a smart move? Because, even though there are plenty of free advertising methods to choose from, those methods couldn’t compete with the impact that paid advertising like Google or Yahoo is able to give.

Advertising with Google or Yahoo means that your site will turn up in search results that are similar or relevant to your online business. And you won’t just appear on the first page of the search results, your site will be on top of the list. This shows why paying for traffic is a smart move. After all, paying for advertising can also be considered as paying for traffic.

The way you pay for your site’s traffic depends on the type of advertising you decide to use. You are sometimes required to pay every time your ad shows up in search results, or every time your ad is clicked in other sites. Again, it depends on what type of advertising you use.

It’s very obvious why paying for traffic is a smart move, since you will be earning back all the money you spend plus more when your customers start flocking to your site. There are plenty of tools for you to use online in order to properly generate traffic, so make sure to do your homework and research!

I Placed #143 On The Empower Network Leader Board Out Of 70,000 Affiliates: Here's How I Did It and How It Impacts Your Bank Account

1 15 2013 1 08 10 PM I Placed #143 On The Empower Network Leader Board Out Of 70,000 Affiliates: Heres How I Did It and How It Impacts Your Bank Account

  (typo in the pic … nobody’s perfect)

OMG. I can’t believe this!!!

Well actually I CAN, but OMG OMG OMG!!!

This is the first time EVER in all my time marketing online that

I’ve placed this high in a competition!!

I thought it was amazing when I was 300 and something on the

leader board the first contest.

It was even MORE amazing when I was 200 and something for

the second competition, but this….

This just takes the cake!

When I think about my beginning in the MLM industry:

Too shy to talk to anyone but family and friends,

Afraid of rejection

And then venturing online… still being afraid of so many things

Barely making any money to call myself a business owner…

I remember years when i made so little I didn’t even qualify

For a tax return (how crazy is that?)

And to see this is COMPLETELY amazing!!

Being #141 out of 70,000 affiliates inside of Empower Network is something to celebrate.

Here’s why and trust me if you join me in business right now you’ll benefit from it.

 

====> Click here NOW to join me in Empower<=====

 

Or if you are already apart of my team, the Digital Wealth Masters, if you roll with me and never quit the amount your bank account WILL increase dramatically!

The contest began November 6, 2012 and from that day until to January 14, 2013 when it ended, I bought in only 13 people at the basic level. That means 13 people bought the basic blogging system for $25.

Out of those new members:

  • 5 Upgraded to the Inner Circle
  • 4 Ugraded to the Costa Rica Mastermind
  • 1 Upgraded to the 15k Formula
  • 6 Purcahsed Tickets to attend our event in Austin, TX this weekend

Why am I telling you this?

I’m saying to to show that it doesn’t take a massive amount of people to place in the Top 200 or even Top 150 on the leaderboard. I’m saying this because with the right leadership and the right amount of committed people you can succeed

Our mantra, core commitment here with Empower Network is focus on getting 2 basic blogging sales per day. And clearly I didn’t do that right?

So just imagine where I, or you would be if we DID sell 2 $25 blogging systems per day…

Our goal during the contest was simple:

  • 2 sales per day
  • sell an event ticket to Austin which is only 2 days away.

That’s what Dave Wood and Dave Sharpe said for us to do and, that’s what I focused on.

I went to work.

I took action

Everything was going right.

I blasted on to the leaderboard at #12… higher than some of the top earners

The leads were coming in, the sales were flowing and my team was upgrading.

And then it happened.

The day before Thanksgiving I got wind that someone who was dear to me was brutally murdered.

And the Sunday after Thanksgiving my Uncle who had been suffering from an illness passed away.

In one weekend I was faced with a decision.

Let grief consume me or keep pushing.

It was hard.

I didn’t feel like working.

I cried … A LOT

I had two funerals to go to; one on Friday and one the following Monday similar to the deaths that took place.

I can’t lie. I barely blogged. Most days during the month of December i scrolled up and down Facebook. And yet…

The sales keep coming in.

The commission notifications … $25, $100, $500, $1000 …

“Congratulations, you just signed a new member”

How could that be?

The system began to work itself … just like they said it would.

I found a marketing strategy I was good at, and I set certain things in place. My numbers slipped a little, but the system kept working.

And then I made a decision.

I looked at my kids and I realized (as if i didn’t already know), I could continue to grieve over something I couldn’t control and watch my hard work slip away

or

I could get it together and push through this, because I had 3 little ones depending on me.

It was tough, but I started with one day. And then the next. And slowly,I got back into my groove.

I continued to plug away.

I started calculating and developing strategies to keep me in position.

And although I didn’t get points everyday, I did make it.

Red Lanyard 300x218 I Placed #143 On The Empower Network Leader Board Out Of 70,000 Affiliates: Heres How I Did It and How It Impacts Your Bank Account

The goals was to get a red lanyard which meant I needed to place in the top 200.

So what’s the big deal about a red lanyard?

Basically with a red lanyard you get invited to a private meeting with Dave Wood, Dave Sharpe and the top 6 and 7 figure earners during the Austin event.

THIS IS A HUGE FREAKIN DEAL!!!!

This basically puts me in the circle of those that are getting massive results.

I get to learn from them, build relationships with them, network with them, and really get to know them on a deeper level.

I’ve heard it said before that if you take the income of your 5 closest friends and divide it up the average will be close to what you make as well.

And since my income needs to go up, this new network of friends and business partners fits right into my life’s purpose.

It’s all starting simply by placing in the Top 200 and getting a Red Lanyard.

Someone once told me, if you want to get recognized in this industry – win a contest

And in so many ways …. I just did.

 ====> Click here NOW to join me in Empower <====

Now let me be clear.

NONE of this would have been possible had it not been for important 3 things.

1. God allowing this to be possible – getting serious about my prayer life. I made a commitment to God and although I’m not perfect, He honored my efforts and blessed me in spite of my faults.

2. My team believing in me enough to join the Digital Wealth Masters , trusting my leadership, and believing in THEMSELVES enough to commit to upgrading and showing up at the events.

3. And me focusing in on what needed to be done. No shiny ball syndrome. No getting distracted. Just 100% commitment.

And that’s the real deal.

If I told you how simple my strategy was you probably wouldn’t believe me.

Seriously. It’s the most ridiculous thing EVER!!

…..but IT WORKED.

Almost everyday, Monday – Friday I would:

1. Hop on Facebook

2. Post some Off the wall stuff

3. Chat with a few people

4. Broadcast my results

5. Email my List the swipes I got from other Empower Network leaders

6. Occasionally write an original blog (remember I was grieving)

That was it.

Some days I fell off. December was a complete wrap.

But the point is I did work and focused on my intention of being in the Top 200.

I had a goal to reach #30, actually I saw it in a dream … and I know it will happen. My intention is set.

I’m proud of my team members who have committed to coming to Austin: Valentino Crawford, Sandra Howard, Michelle Cornish and her husband, Tony Smith, and Valerie Mason.

An honorary mention goes to Eraina Tinnin who bought a ticket, but due unresolvable circumstances cannot be there 9she was in San Diego and WILL be at the next one)

They get recognized because they showed commitment in purchasing their tickets.

And I can’t forget about my team members who maybe can’t make this one, but are ALREADY making plans for the next event!

So HOW does this impact you? How can THIS make you more money?

Here’s the deal.

There’s a thing called the law of momentum AND the law of association.

What I have shown you above is momentum

Since our last event in San Diego (September 2012) through now, my total income earned and monthly residuals has MORE than doubled.

That’s not just because of my sponsor and her incredible leadership, but also because I’m getting more sales through recognition and making myself more visible.

What does that mean?

That means if you follow what I teach, and never quit, you will start getting results

I’m all about promoting members on my team!

1 15 2013 3 32 38 PM1 I Placed #143 On The Empower Network Leader Board Out Of 70,000 Affiliates: Heres How I Did It and How It Impacts Your Bank Account

I WANT IT TOO!!!

Heck on a training in the 15K Formula (another product from Empower Network), Tracey Walker, my sponsor name dropped me through the entire thing for the work and leadership I provided in helping her to build her team!

I didn’t ask her to do that. And in the beginning I never sought recognition. She saw the vision the Daves had. I saw the vision she had and i gave of myself, my knowledge and skills wherever she needed me. I just wanted to help … to be apart of something great.

And now everyone that buys the 15k Formula and listens to her training she did will KNOW WHO ME and as a result KNOW MY TEAM!

Period. The end.

And all this because I got serious, put my head down, went to work, and got results.

Leaders here in EN WANT to promote those that are getting results. That’s the type of culture that we have.

So my question to you is are you going to keep wondering if this thing is for you?

OR

Are you going to trust me enough to lead you the right way and get started with me now?

 

====> Click here NOW to join me in Empower<=====

 

Now if you are already on my team, then just continue to follow the 8 Core Commitments and NEVER GIVE UP.

Follow the instructions I send in our private group and eventually you will get the results you came here for.

I’m living proof.

And I’ve barely scratched the surface.

If you’ve made the decision to join me in Empower just:

1. Click on the banner below

2. Fill out the information

3. Pull out your credit card and pay $25 to get started now

And if you are already a Digital Wealth Master let’s bundle down, get focused, and go to work doing the things we teach on the Ning, in my emails, and in the products from Empower Network.

LET’S GET PAID!!!

Jenny asks…

Which tools can I use to promote my affiliate marketing programs?

I have have noted that earning income using affiliate marketing programs takes time as it is not easy to rank high quickly on search engines. The fast methods seem to be expensive.

Apple Daniels answers:

Hi There
I have been involved in the internet affiliate marketing business for several years now. Please believe me when I say there are no quick ways to build lists or attract new affiliates. It takes time and perseverance. It can be very frustrating at times. I have spent hours and hours trying to promote different affiliate programs and attract new affiliates. The biggest disappointments are after working hard to attract new affiliates is to find that only about 5% of them are willing to work at the particular program. The other 95% just sit back and wait for you to do the work for them. If the particular program requires that they have to pay a fee then your recruiting efforts are mostly for naught.
The people that make big bucks in the affiliate marketing business are those that invest large amounts of money in advertising and pay per click marketing. All these hypes that we see everyday about joining super list building programs, video courses, fantastic affiliate programs and all the other tremendous offers is just to get our money. They expect people like us to invest in these programs and fail. After failing most of us move onto another program that looks unbelievable and fail again. That’s how THEY make their big bucks.
I am not saying that you cannot make money with affiliate marketing. There are some good programs out there that will work for the right people with the right skills and who are willing to invest the time and money. Recently I have gotten interested in the social networking aspect of the internet marketing. Namely Facebook. As you probably know, Facebook is quick, easy and fun place to meet and exchange information and ideas and you can actually make a few bucks.

I wish you great success in whatever your endeavors might be.

How To Become A Super Affiliate In Niche Markets

Posted on by Apple Daniels in Affiliate Marketing Comments
super affiliate How To Become A Super Affiliate In Niche MarketsOver the past years, web hosting has grown bigger than it used to be. With more companies getting into this business and finding the many benefits it can give them, the demand for web hosting has never been higher. These seem to be the trend of today.

38 million people have put up their very first websites online this year 2005 alone. It is estimated that by 2008, the internet sales industry will top then dollar bank. And to think, majority of those sites will be offering different affiliate programs for people to choose and participate into.

This only means one thing. It is easier now to find the right web host for your application. The possibility of quality web hosting companies separating themselves from the rest of the industry is anticipated. If this is done, the unprofessional and incompetent ones will suffer.

Support will be the number one consideration for people when choosing a web host. It will be obvious that traditional advertising will become less and less effective. Most people would rather opt for the web host based on things that they see and hear. Also based on the recommendations by those who have tried them and have proved to be a successful.

This is a great opportunity for web hosting affiliates and resellers alike. There would hundreds of web hosting and programs to choose from that the difficulty in finding the right one for them is not a problem anymore.

How does one become a successful affiliate in the niche markets using web hosting?

If you think about it, everyone who needs a website needs a web hosting company to host it for them. As of now, there is really no leading hosting industry so most people choose hosts based from recommendations. Usually, they get it from the ones that have already availed of a web hosting services.

With the many hosts offering affiliate programs, there is the tendency to find the one which you think will work best for you. Think of the product you will be promoting. Pattern them to the site and see if they are catering to the same things as you are.

When you have been with one host for quite some time and seem not to be making much despite all your effort, leave that one and look for another. There is no use in trying to stick to one when you would be before off in another one. Things will only have to get better from there because you already have been in worst situations.

Try this out. If you are quite happy and satisfied with your web host, try to see if they are offering an affiliate program you can participate on. Instead of you paying them, why not make it the other way around; them paying you. The process can be as easy as putting a small “powered by” or “hosted by” link at the bottom of your page and you are already in an affiliate business.

Why choose paying for your for your web hosting when you do not have to? Try to get paid by letting people know you like your web host.

Always remember that when choosing a web host, choose the one that is known for its fantastic customer support. There are also many hosting affiliate programs. Residual affiliate program is also being hosted. This is the program wherein you get paid a percentage every month for a client that you refer. This can allow you to have a steady source of income. With perseverance, you can even be quite successful in this field.

There are a lot of niche markets out there just waiting for the right affiliate to penetrate to them and make that dollars dream come true. Knowing which one to get into is being confident enough of your potentials and the good results you will be getting.

Web hosting is just one affiliate market you could try out and make some good and continuous income. Just remember that to be successful on your endeavor also means that time, effort and patience is needed.

Nobody has invented the perfect affiliate market yet. But some people do know how to make it big in this kind of market. It is just knowing your kind of market and making the earnings there.

Wishing you growth and prosperity,
