Hub You - Targeted Traffic to Your Mini-Site
After coaching hundreds of people on how to break free from the corporate world, I have created 7 fundamental practices to help you successfully start a new career. I share them with you here.1. Center YourselfWhen you are trying to start a new career, you may encounter inner resistance and self-doubt. Before self-talk sabotages your dreams, learn to disconnect from your negative thought patterns. I recommend centering throughout the day to help you be a kind and patient observer of your thoughts. Learning to center will help you to stay positive and relaxed. Meditation, walks at lunchtime, yoga, and focus
You usually have the option of "sponsor" ads or "solo" ads. If you have your own mailing list you may be able to negotiate an "ad swap".
The advantage of ezine advertising is that you know before you promote that you have a targeted audience that has already expressed an interest in your topic. That's why they subscribed.

We all have to start somewhere. The key is starting.I know Internet Marketing Strategies sounds Greek to the novice or beginning web entrepreneur, but it is not as difficult as it appears. It's not money or time it's knowledge and that is accessible all over the internet for free.You first priority, and probably most important, is to have a rich content page that is updated frequently with fresh content. THis is very important to keep you viewers returning to your site. You also need to keep the site "sticky", meaning the viewers remain on th
Search engines look for large content. Therefore it is easier to get search engines to "spider" your website. Of course large content sites take more effort in building.
Mini-sites, however, are only 1 to 5 pages with the sole purpose of selling immediately to site visitors.
This makes it a lot more difficult to get mini-sites to rank well for competitive keywords. Unless of course you are a whizz at webpage optimization.
So that is why most webmasters do NOT rely on search engines for traffic to their mini-sites.
Remember this, you want targeted traffic, not website "hits". It is the targeted visitors that buy.
This article will briefly give some strategies to generate traffic to your mini-sites. Here are some traffic generating techniques to get traffic.
Forums/Discussion Boards
Search for forums/discussion boards that relate to your mini-sites theme. Post your comments and respond to posts and use your signature file to attract targeted visitors.
The basic strategy is to find related forums and become active in them. Build your reputation by getting yourself known as somebody qualified to give assistance and advice.
Find out what forum members talk about and offer your solution to their problems.
Forum marketing requires you taking the time to make sensible responses or by asking good questions.
Typically, forum promotions have no cost but you must abide by forum rules of conduct.
Ezine Advertising
Ezine advertising is a great way to gather traffic to your mini-sites but this technique can cost some money. If you select the right ezines, advertising can provide very good results. However, some ezines may not provide any results.

This is Article one of six in a series of lessons for small business marketers from Malcolm Gladwell’s Blink.Six articles may seem a bit much to review one book, but Blink is worth it. Malcolm Gladwell's newest book is about first impressions--specifically, about the first Two Seconds a person encounters new data.Because Blink deals with First Impressions, learning the mechanisms behind a ‘blink' can have huge payoffs for the small business marketer. As Gladwell writes (p. 241):“This is the gift of training and expertise--the ability to extract an enormous amount of meaningful i

If humor isn't part of your adsense campaign, or one of the tags on your blog or website, you may want to think about adding it. Unless you're blogging about terribly depressing subjects (and why would you do that if you're running adsense or affiliate marketing ads?), humor can really attract traffic and make your site much more appealing.Even if your friends put their hands over their ears when you start your favorite joke, "A duck, a gorilla and a spider plant walk into a bar", you can learn to use humor successfully. Just make it a point to notice the world around you -- ordinary life -- and after awhile, you

Everyone is concern about the price. Money is a common denominator in every country. We use money and prices to orient ourselves in our commercial society. It enables us to analyze and compare all products and services. The price allows us to measure where a product ranks among the other products available. The prospects willingness to pay and ability to pay are different issues. Convince the prospect of the value of what you are selling is greater than the price you are charging. Never argue about the investment. This puts you on the defensive instead of the offensive... You are not in

One of the keys to doing well with ezine advertising is to run repeat ads in the same ezine. Your results improve on the second or third promotion. However, if you get no results on your first mailing, do not repeat that ezine again.
Article Writing
Write articles and submit them to ezines, web sites and article directory sites.
Here's a short list of article directories:
http://www.ezinearticles.com http://www.certificate.net/wwio http://www.ideamarketers.com http://www.goarticles.com http://www.netterweb.com http://www.jogena.com
The advantage with this strategy is that when other websites owners post your article on their website you get a link to your site through the resource box of your article. Also those that read the article may click through to your site. Imagine your articles being posted onto hundreds of other sites with a similar theme to yours.
List Building
You must of heard the expression - "the money is in the list". Without a list you are forever looking for new targeted visitors. Building a list means that you are marketing to an audience that has trust in you.
Your list could be for an ezine, autoresponder course, a free give-away, or a customer list. Whatever you decide, get started now. People prefer to buy from people they know and have a degree of confidence in.
