How To Get More Twitter Followers – Business Edition

Posted on July 19, 2011 by Lawrence

One of the mysteries I had when marketing online was wonder how to get more twitter followers…

Where do I get more visitors from?

Well, more specifically where do I get REAL people to come to my website. Now, for the most part many people seem to think social media is just a fad for business and most businesses only jump on because it's the “in thing” to do.

I'm here to tell you, social marketing for business is big business.

Learning How To Get More Twitter Followers Will Help Your Business

So some of the questions I get all the time is how to get more twitter followers for their business but primarily their home business. Without a doubt, many will associate a following of people as a source of traffic. In a way this is correct but I would rather share that traffic in itself is not the cure all. Sure if you have gobs and gobs of traffic that would make sense.

I'm talking about traffic that comes from a social media stream that could quite possibily sky rocket your business if setup correctly. Continue reading →

Mark Hoverson – Irresistible Info Marketing Blueprint

Posted on July 15, 2011 by Lawrence

So what is the deal with this Mark Hoverson's Irresistible Info Marketing Blueprint?

Well check this out.

Mark Hoverson has been on of these dudes online that I haven't been able to meet but have noticed from my experience with other trainers in the industry.

I've never actually bought anything from him but people seem to rave about him so he's gotta have the good right?

Mark Hoverson Irresistible Info Marketing Blueprint – I Ignored It

Well, life gets busy and I just brushed it aside. Things were ramping up for the launch and tons of people were gearing to sell and buy the thing but I just didn't have the “urge”.

I want to point the finger at my busy schedule or that I've been trying to make 2 products of my own to build a brand around. Either way, I didn't give this product even a chance and just shelved it to concentrate on my long term goal to get some sizable assets online.

Then I saw this training on info products.

ENTER LIGHTBULB

I'm not sure where it fired up but as I was doing some work on a membership site I decided to spend some time to see what this “caffeine product” he was talking about.

I want to reiterate, I don't think he's the “man” as I just regarded him as another guy who made some money online and is now looking to monetize on it. No biggie, that's the way it works.

Mark Hoverson Irresistible Info Marketing Blueprint – Ideas Galore

Just his FREE training on what he will be touching on sparked something to change what I was doing on my current product. I had to implement it and see what the deal was. On a psychological level it just makes sense.

The more I've been in the industry of information marketing the more I've been diving into the mind of buying/selling.

What makes people buy? There are distinct triggers and tapping into a couple will for sure help me sell more products.

Just ONE of man that fired up was being able to do a inside “back office” view of what people are to expect.

See, people are scared of the unknown.

That just totally makes sense to me.

People don't take action or buy thing because of that unknown.

Throwing in money back guarantees, testimonials, and now adding the sneak peak to what to expect just made FREAKING sense.

Why haven't I been doing this earlier?

This Mark Hoverson Irresistible Info Marketing Blueprint just make freaking SENSE!

Mark Hoverson Irresistible Info Marketing Blueprint – Changing Course

So one of the things I've been teaching my teams and students is to ALWAYS consider yourself as the business. Sure you sell something but in the end YOU are your business. If YOU are your business YOU need to figure out how to sell what you know.

Throwing in what Timothy Ferriss talks about the information selling the Mark Hoverson Irresistible Info Marketing Blueprint started to piece it together for me.

The last couple of coaching calls I've had with my students was to set aside time to get this product and LEARN how to build your own product.

Product creation is key once you start to dive into marketing funnels and what I've been working on so far.

If your on the boarder, I suggest you just watch the free video trainings he's giving away and dive into why it's such a vital portion to my own internet business.

HostGator Promo Code – 25%

Posted on July 12, 2011 by Lawrence

HostGator Promo Code 25% off

*use promo code startawebsitehostgator for 25% off at HostGator.com*

I personally use hostgator and have used it for many of my websites. There are a lot of qualities to a good hosting and here are some after being with a piss poor hosting account.

Speed

I can't tell you how many times I was with another host and it was dirt slow. It suck because if your trying to do any type of SEO having a slow freaking website will kill your site. Visitors will just stop waiting and leave. Bounce rate will hurt bad. People are looking for information and if they have to wait, or wait too long for their own taste your just not going to keep your visitors around.

Up Time

I remember countless times when my old host (NOT HOSTGATOR) that I would try and pull up my website to show it off to someone only to see it dead in the water. AAARRRRR. When your site is an extension of your business and has no hours of operation because it's supposed to be open 24hrs a day down time is a no-no.

Customer Service

There is regular customer service that works on their time and then there is good customer service that seems to be around and available ALL the time. Stuff happens. Crap happens. Stuff out of your control and most times in your control because you broke something. Hey, that's life.

I'm not going to say you MUST use HostGator but I've built over 30 websites in all kinds of niches and I have most if not all of them with Hostgator. I was able to strike up a deal to get a special coupon to my guests to my website here. This HostGator promo code is the real deal and can be applied for a 25% discount to your checkout.

How you like them apples?

HostGator Promo Code

Oh, if you think you can go with one host and then move to another there are services within Host Gator to make it a smooth transition. To avoid this step I would say just go with Host Gator and don't even mess with it. If your building more websites and want to mess with C Class Ip hosting sure go get that when you need unique IP stuff. But for the 95% of my common readers there is really no need to go into that unless your looking into geo targeting domains.

Make it easy and just use my hostgator promo code and call it a day ->> startawebsitehostgator

It's got an interesting 3 question survey that is going viral across the industry. (Hint: the data is going to be V-E-R-Y useful in showing you how to be the most profitable marketer possible).

Finding the true path to making money online and through your computer isn't rocket science… if it was then there would be a lot more rocket scientists:)

Online marketing or just learning the ability to make money on your computer is a skill anyone can learn as long as you have the steps.

The video preview below talks about what we call “normal people” can do today.

PS…if you listen carefully to the 33-second video, you will maybe be struck with a no-brainer, but rarely taught, piece of marketing gold. Listen carefully:

Effective Keyword Research – Come Get Some

Posted on July 8, 2011 by Lawrence

If your looking to jump into online marketing I highly suggest you start to dive into some sound and effective keyword research before you buy up all of these super backlinking tools.

Now don't get me wrong. I love me some off page seo tools but in the end your life is so much easier if you would just learn some effective keyword research.

Here are 3 quick tips to effective keyword research

1) It's a good practice to start with anything that you feel you can write or build content on.

Too many people shy away from weird niches like “how to build a chicken coop”. Sure it just might sound weird but if your in the market of say being an affiliate marketer your job is to get traffic to things that sell. I would first look at a subject matter that you can write some articles about or shoot videos about. If your not ashamed of the subject I say it's fair game.

Don't for a second start boxing yourself into what you can and can't advertise. Unless your selling your own product you really need to branch out and think outside of the box.
