"Landing Page Cash Machine"
There's no substitute for getting good keywords on your website. In my workshop I just recently had an insider's guide on knowing your customer, and I've got to tell you, as time goes on, the more people ask me questions, the more often the answer comes back to the basic idea that you really have to understand and know your customer.
Let's say if you're selling digital cameras and you have a page all about Canon L400, (I don't even know if that's a real model number,) and all it does is talk about the Canon L400, then people searching for the keyphrase "digital camera" aren't going to find that page, because the main keywords on that page are going to be Canon L400.
Let's think about that for a moment. What state of mind is somebody in who's searching for digital cameras,? The state of mind that person has is, "Hmm, I think I'd like to buy a new digital camera, and I'm curious about digital cameras." They're not at all ready to buy.
On the other hand, somebody who searches for "Canon digital camera" pretty much knows "so-and-so friend" has recommended a Canon digital camera to them and they want to find out more about the Canon.
The more advanced person in the process might be somebody searching for "Canon L400." They've heard about this camera, they think it's a good camera, people have told them it's a good camera, they want to find out more about that camera.
People who are searching for "Canon L400 price," are likely buyers. That's a guy with a credit card burning a hole in his wallet and he's just looking for a place to enter in the number.
Optimizing your landing pages for Google traffic and other organic search engines is really a matter of understanding what it is that somebody is searching for. So, if somebody's looking for a generic term like digital camera, you've got to assume that they're very early in the buying process.
So what do you do to gather targeted search engine traffic from people in all three stages of the buying process? Well, put up pages about digital cameras, about how digital cameras work, about how they're better than regular cameras, about digital camera lenses, another page on digital camera viewfinders and how important they are, another page on digital camera durability, and another one that talks about batteries. Put up all of these different pages on digital cameras in a different section of your website.
Then, have another section of your website all about Canon digital cameras, and yet another section of your website all about this particular model, with different pages for each of the models.
What that shows is that you have pages that are designed to attract people at different parts of the buying cycle, which is really the key to grabbing all kinds of traffic to your web site.
In the end, the real the answer to getting targeted traffic to your site is think about who your audience is and create the pages specifically for them.

Mr. Widawer is the author of the widly recognized authoritative book on designing effective Landing Pages, the"Landing Page Cash Machine", which really shares some insight on not only converting visitors into buyers, but on what makes an Internet Marketing business really work.

Secrets Of Affiliate Programs That Make You Lots Of $$$
-Courtesy Of AffiliateProgramsCollege
Thanks to
profitpuppy.com for portions of this
article
Certain affiliate programs have a very high
profit potential. Others have about a snowball's chance in... well, don't
have much chance of making an income at
all.
So how do you choose? It depends upon
the content of your site. It doesn't work to promote dog medicine to
people if your site is about trips to Jamaica. While you
might be able to relate the two, your site visitor probably will not
relate their trip to Jamaica with getting cheap medicine for their dog. And
when it comes to affiliate marketing, it's not about you.
It's about your visitor. Affiliate income is about you, but
you only earn the income by doing the marketing.
There are affiliate programs on just about
anything, but only some programs are highly profitable. If you are working
with a very profitable affiliate program, then you can actually build your
entire site around the affiliate program itself.
So, which affiliate programs make the
most money?
If you have a high traffic site (100,000 visitors per month), then you
can make money with any affiliate program as long as it is related to the
content of your site. However if you have a low traffic site, you need to
be more selective to make money. Look for the following characteristics of
a good affiliate program:
1. Lifetime commissions. Certain
affiliate programs give you commissions on every product that is sold to
the customer, forever. A great example of this is
SpeedyPin. One of the designers
of this site earns residual commissions from people purchasing calling
cards, and these people signed up months ago through
SpeedyPin.
2. Affiliate programs that have high
profit for each sale will help you grow more quickly. However,
simple logic will tell you that $2 is better than $0. It's better to
make a profit of $30 per sale than $2 per sale, but if you stick and stay,
you can get your pay. What this means is that patience and
persistence are huge when it comes to affiliate marketing.
3. The product needs to be of great
quality - something that you can actually vouch for. Why sell
something that is poor in quality?
4. Information products can be the
best type of affiliate products because they do have high profits. Many
people will give you 50% commissions or more for selling their information
product. Why? It costs virtually nothing to reproduce an
information product. Stamping a CD costs 25 cents, or emailng the
information costs less. If it's a good product, it can be resold for
$9.95 (or more), and because the product designer doesn't have to market
it, they will pay generously for your efforts.
To get a real idea of what are the best
affiliate programs, you need to have a look at what affiliates are earning.
Find out more information about
what top affiliates are earning.
You can also have a look at the affiliate
networks which put together a whole lot of affiliates with merchants.
The main affiliate networks are listed many
places throughout the internet, and on affiliateadvice's
affiliate program directories page.
Check these directories out for a high quality selection of products in a wide variety of
areas.
If you REALLY want to know what the highest
commission products are, here are a few examples. But please remember that
these areas are highly competitive, and it is hard to get search engine
traffic for them
Information products - online newsletters
and ebooks.
Credit Cards.
Online Gambling, sportsbooks etc.
Mortgages/loan companies
Software products
Web Hosting (very competitive area)
Office Supplies (such as inkjet cartridges)
This is not a definitive list. There are
plenty of other products as well. These, however, are all very high profit
areas.
This article was reprinted
from
affiliateadvice.us, where you can
find
great affiliate programs and ways to generate online
income.
Consider these and take your affiliate business to a new level.
To your success

Affiliate Marketing Secrets That You Can Use
Affiliate marketing is a very hot topic on the web right now. Not surprising when you consider the fact that a vast majority of successful online entrepreneurs make their money from affiliate schemes and programs. Since the early days when Amazon was being set up and founder, Jeff Bezos was establishing affiliates as key marketing tools for any online enterprise, affiliates and affiliate marketing has come of age.
The amounts of income being made have clearly transformed affiliate marketing into a very serious business. There are more and more affiliates comfortably raking in hundreds of thousands of dollars every month.
The first important affiliate marketing secret to bear in mind is the reason why affiliate marketing remains the most effective way of marketing any online enterprise. It is all about the power of the referral. It is rather awkward when a website is trying to promote itself directly to prospects. Actually very different from the situation where somebody else refers the business to others, including people they do not know personally.
This works out superbly for several reasons. Firstly the affiliate as a consumer themselves is able to quickly identify the strong attractive points of the business that will best attract others like them.
The other little known affiliate marketing secret is that most of the top-earning affiliates have their own websites and blogs. Having their own websites gives these affiliates a tremendous edge over others. The sites are usually very closely related to the affiliate program that they are promoting. By having their own site, they are able to harvest the email addresses of the traffic to their sites.
Usually, most people you send to your affiliate site will not end up purchasing anything. However when you have their email addresses in your opt-in email list, you can continuously market to them and the affiliate will automatically end up with a much higher conversion rate from the traffic they generate as opposed to an affiliate without a website who just sends traffic to their affiliate website.
This is the affiliate marketing secret that makes a difference between affiliates struggling to pull in a good income and those comfortably making hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Internet And Online Affiliates Auto Insurance Unveiled (1)
We hear about car insurance, auto insurance, life insurance, home insurance, insurance lawyers, insurance quotes, and all types of insurance schemes.
We are yet to hear about the emerging online and internet affiliate schemes.
Internet business concepts evolved over the years have given credence to the fact that joint and partnership ventures are the way forward.
Talk about the global stock exchange all over the world and it is all about joint ventures.
Affiliate programs proven to be tried and tested avenues for home base business residual income generators, online profit creation, unveiling of millionaires and lifetime real cash flow systems are seen as aspects of joint endeavours in business.
Insurance companies all over the world assure their customers that because we can not predict the future, there is the need for us to put in place a contingency plan to ensure that no matter what happens, where, when and how it happened, we will still have the dignity and guarantee to be taken care of.
This has given credence to the rising patronage of reliable, cheap and affordable insurance companies, policies and systems.
Auto Insurance to me in relation to affiliate cash making, money making online, internet home base business creations is considered our ability and plan to set up affiliate programs and systems which can and will stand the test of time.
I refer to them as Automatic insurance systems that ensure our financial and economic sustenance in this dynamic and unstable global economy.
Whilst our car or motor insurance, home insurance, health insurance, holiday insurance, insurance lawyers and other related insurances are of much concern to us, concerted efforts must be made as affiliates to guarantee yourself a cheap, easy sustainable insurance system through the setting up of tried and proven affiliate cash flow systems.
And as to our search for cheap insurance quotes, you must also continually conduct searches for affiliate insurance quotes.
To your success.

Starting Affiliate, Online Or Internet Business? Never Compromise On These Factors
Have you tried to imagine building a house with a plain old hammer and nails in this day and age of high power tools? Certainly if the thought of such a strategy does not ring an alarm then you better sit up.This is what I believe is necessary in considering the internet business and the necessary tools for maximum profits, sustainability and long lasting marketing benefits.
So whether it is a home based business, online marketing, internet business opportunity, joining affiliate programmes, making money online or the internet, proven multilevel marketing or home based online business opportunity there is the need for you to focus on the set up and the critical factors involved.
Statistics indicate that half of American internet users are using some form of high speed connection we are made to remember that that leaves half of them on some level of dial up. An old computer and slow internet isn't the least of their worries. They may be able to log onto the net and find some great resources, but they're still limited in the type of resources that they can consume. All due to limitations in speed and access.
If you desire to get started with an internet business you're
going to need a bare minimum of tools.
A. A good computer.
You need to first consider the fact that your computer will be the main medium to communicating with the global market. It is more or less going to be electronic headquaters of your global business. It is therefore very necessary that you get the computer that is up to date and can handle the type of task needed to maximise your chances of profiting massively on the internet. It is advised that your system may need an upgrade if it is four years old.
B. High Speed Internet Access.
Your earnings are dependent on the speed with which you communicate with the online customers and audiences .You do not have to use the excuse of cost as the reason for going for a dial up set up. High speed internet connection is a key to the success of your home based internet business. It will guarantee that your earnings and profits online are boosted and dial up system set up would not get even a tenth of what you can earn.
C. A Professional Website.
Starting an online business on a shoe string budget is what we sometimes hear however we must resist every urge to sign up for a free website host 'just to get started'. The freebie website will represent you poorly. When you can register a domain for less than $8 and buy feature rich hosting for around $9 a month, there's no excuse for cheaping out.
You can purchase a simple template for as low as $5 and adapt it for your own use if you're comfortable with it or hire a designer to put up a few pages for you. What matters is that what you put up represents you well.
D. A professional and reliable mailing list system.
With an online and internet business the major focus is to build a reliable and dependable customer base. They are the lifeline of any successful business that can stand the test of time. From the moment that you set up your website you are working to build a following of one kind or another. When someone visits your site and has an interest in you they must have a way to invite you to stay in touch. You need a lead capture page that will compile the list of visitors to your site. With your mailing list invite on every page, they'll be able to do that. Whether you will be sending out a regular newsletter, a free e-course or occasional product specials - your list of interested contacts is golden. The money is really in the list.
E. Business Mentoring.
No matter what kind of business background you have off line, internet marketing is a whole different playing field. There are tried and true principles to learn and apply and some that change constantly. It's important to know who you can trust.
If you're serious about taking your business to the web you can use this as a preliminary check list. With the right tools in place your internet business will be on a solid foundation.
