postheadericon 5 Surefire Ways To Ruin Any Website

Owning a website gives you certain rights. For example, you have the right to plaster your URL all over the doors and windows of your SUV in hopes that someone in one of the 7 cars you pass on the way to work will get the urge to visit your website and spend gobs of money. You own the website-this is your right. You also have the right to post pictures of your family, friends, pets, and other totally uninteresting images all over your website after all it’s yours. One of the biggest rights you have as a webmaster is the right to make your website successful (and profitable) or to run it into the ground like a 737 missing both engines and landing gear. For those of you who despise online success and frown upon the wealths of cyberspace I have compiled a list of 5 ways to ruin any website.

1. Make Your Website As Cluttered As Possible

Nothing makes visitors leave quicker than a cluttered website that is hard to navigate around. So if you want people to flee from your site like it’s a rabid wolf then be sure to put as much junk as you can on the homepage. Then make the links to the rest of the website hard to find. Be sure to have lots and lots of pictures, forms, banners and pop-ups as well. All the relevant information should be well hidden, and the main focus should appear to be the countless programs you want visitors to sign up for. That should keep any pesky visitors from ever coming back.

2. Never Update Your Website

If someone were to visit your website today and then come back 6 months from now they should see the same information. Nothing should be updated. This will let them know that you care nothing about the website and that you have nothing new to offer them. The next time they see a listing for your website they won’t even bother to visit. Great!

3. Never Ever Advertise

Advertising cost money and it might draw some good targeted traffic to your website. So be sure to never advertise. You can just keep promoting your website through those same tired free programs that you have been using for years. This should bring you little or no traffic, and the traffic that does come won’t be your target audience so they’re almost certain to leave without spending a dime. Awesome!

4. Always Sell A Crappy Product

Selling good products online can get you a good reputation. A good reputation can get you repeat sales and new customers. You don’t want all this hassle. So find the worst products you can and sell them exclusively. This should damage your reputation to the point where no one wants to bother buying from your site. Be sure to lie about your product too. This will further ruin any kind of credibility you may have.

5. Never Respond To Any Questions

If someone emails you with a question about your website or products on your website, Do Not Reply. Replying could be considered courteous and businesslike. You don’t want to come off that way. It’s better to just delete any emails from people who were interested enough in your website to take the time to email. Hopefully this will drive them to one of your competitors websites and out of your hair.

There you have it folks. Five great ways to ruin any website. So don’t blame me if you don’t follow these tips and you become an online success story. I’ve done all I can to try and help out. And now, if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got to write down the URL that’s airbrushed on the hood of this Ford Explorer beside me…

postheadericon 1stepsystem- A One Step Internet Marketing Revolution

1StepSystem is basically a Complete Automated Home Business, and is promoted as “Hands Free Income”. Co-Founders Rod Stinson and Chris Koehl are known for being tops at what they do, with incredible track records. Rod was rated as “One of the Top 20 Network Marketers in the World”, and is a top producer in several MLM companies, hundreds of thousands of people in his downlines. Chris is an expert internet marketer and had created the online marketing system for many companies. Amongst them are Xango, Oasis Wellness Network, Pro-Step, SeaSilver, LifeForce International, Mannatech, My Golden Leads.com, Best Leads.com, Precision MLM.com and Credit Secrets. Both Rod and Chris wanted to build an organization where people who have ventured into network marketing unsuccessfully over the years could finally have the chance to become successful.

As contrast to traditional concepts of Direct Marketing , there were many difficulties in introducing the system to anyone and more specifically if we ask our freinds and relatives to understand the system.Being on the inside track developing online systems, Chris knows the downsides of MLMs, and why people failed. He quoted in his biography, “Sometimes the problem was the product being marketed, sometimes it was the pay plan, sometimes it was the owner or administrators of my system, and sometimes it was all three. Needless to say it was frustrating. I spent years perfecting my online system but could never find the right business model to plug it into then…Rod Called. You know, sometimes you know, when you know…5 minutes into our conversation I began to get goose bumps, the idea Rod had was exactly what my system needed to be married to – and by doing so, all the previous challenges would be eliminated.”

The idea Rod and Chris had with the 1StepSystem was to build a company where those that had been unsuccessful with network marketing in the past, could finally be given a way to become extremely successful. The ‘system’ has been very good to them and they wanted to find a way to give a little ‘pay-back’. You know what? That’s exactly what they’re doing. Chris and Rod are offering an unheard of 83.7% payout, that’s next to impossible to beat. As a matter of fact, I’m told, that it’s the highest percentage ever offered in the history of the network marketing industry. Now get this, there’s no selling involved at all and the price is affordable and not even close to what most of those companies are charging out there. The prospective customer starts by being directed to a website, once there he signs up for a FREE 37 Minute Tele-seminar.

The product “Ultimate Marketers Tool Box” is like a personal digital library of the most effective marketing strategies known to man. It’s the digital product in the virtual back office of 1StepSystem. The marketing strategies and tools provided along with proprietary marketing software in the box are responsible for hundreds of millions of dollars worth of sales in any business, online or off.

“I don’t even need to communicate with my prospects, and they send me $500 directly into my account,” says Dawn Henderson. “On my first sale, I practically made back all the money I initially laid out, and I did that in less than an hour after I joined.” Laura Goodman said, “I have tried so many other MLM & Network Marketing opportunities and had always failed. This is the first time I have ever had success at it, and it’s the least I’ve ever had to work.” According to David Track, Leading QA for the 1StepSystem, “I would easily pay $500 for the “ultimate marketer tool box” which consists of proprietary software and other marketing tools designed to help increase sales in any business, whether online or off. Being the owner of an invention marketing company, it has already helped us immensely in our marketing efforts, and has also assisted me in rapidly growing the 1StepSystem business. In fact, I am already earning more with the 1StepSystem then I do at my own company, and I started 1/28/06!”

When I looked into the 1StepSystem for the first time it was back on February 8th. I did a Google search after receiving an email from a fellow marketer. When I did the Google search it, if you can believe this, only brought back (1) link! That’s right (1) link that happen to be to a thread in a pretty well know Forum. It was the standard beginning thread, “Does anyone out there know anything about the 1StepSystem”? To which there were about 4 responses and 2 more questions. The responses seemed favorable and one of them even included a phone number so I gave the fella a call. He fed me with a head full of knowledge about the program and I really considered joining – but it was a little more investment than I could make without the approval of the banker (my wife) so I had to wait. While waiting I talked myself out of doing it – figures huh. Well I went back to the Net a week or so later and Googled the 1StepSystem again and you know what, I came back with 400+ links!! I started checking them out and you wouldn’t believe the forum entries now, this guy made $4350 in 5 days, this other lady made $3,000 in her first 24hrs and this fella over here’s made over $11,000 in the last 2 weeks. Well, that put me over and now I’ve invested in the 1StepSystem too, and now I’m building up one of those “I made $XX,XXX in this many days” stories myself!

postheadericon 5 Quick and Easy Steps On HOW-TO Send Your Website A SURGE Of Amazon’s Traffic For FREE!

What I’m about to reveal to you in this article will literally change the way you look at ‘Amazon’ forever.

As you know, Amazon is a buyers market place and is a VERY powerful search engine for products of all sorts, especially Books.

Now, you’re probably saying to yourself, “yeah, I already know that about Amazon, but how do I get my share of Amazon’s traffic?”.

Well, I’m going to answer that question in just a few moments, but first, here’s just some of the benefits you’ll receive once you’ve ‘Set-Up’ what I’m about to show you:

- you’ll position yourself as an Expert within your Niche

- you’ll receive Highly Targeted traffic to your website

- you’ll be able to build a HIGHLY targeted ‘Opt-In’ list

Those are some pretty Powerful benefits wouldn’t you say?

And who would of ever guessed that Amazon could deliver this to you.

I only recently learned of this tactic myself from a Very well known Internet marketer who was kind enough to share it with me.

So now, I’m going to do the same for you.

Are you ready to see what Amazon can do for your Business and Credibility?

Enough said, lets get started.

Step #1. Set up a account with Amazon.

This is the easiest part of the whole task. Simply go to http://www.amazon.com and set up an account for yourself.

This should only take a few minutes and is very straight forward.

Step #2. Click on your “Your Name” Store tab.

Once you’ve set up your account you should have been given a password in order to login to your account.

If you’re not logged in already, login now.

Now, from within the members area there should be a row of tabs at the top of the members area, click on the one that says “Your Name” Store(ex. ‘Corys Store’ tab).

This will take you to a different area with a different sub-menu.

Click on the tab in the sub-menu that says “About You Area”.

Step #3. Setting up your “About You Area”.

Now this is where you have to pay ‘Special Attention’ because this is what people will see when they click on your ‘About You’ tab.

Assuming you are at the ‘About You Area’ you’ll notice that you have spots available to put your Picture, Name, Nickname, eMail Address, Real Name and About Me.

Go ahead and fill out all the area’s accept your ‘About Me’.

The ‘About Me’ spot is what I’ll talk about in the next step, but for now, just fill out all the other area’s and if you want to put up a picture of yourself, you can, it’s up to you.

Step #4. Setting up the ‘About Me’ section.

This is probably the single most important part of this whole process because this is where your potential customer will read about who you are and what you and your business is all about, so do take this seriously.

Now, you have about 4,000 characters of space to write up a description about who you are and what your business is about, so its up to you on how long you want your description to be.

Before you start writing your description this is what You have to do First within the first 70 to 80 characters of your ‘About Me’ description and I’ll show you an example of how mine looks so you’ll be able to see this in action.

(ex. About me: Hi, I’m Cory Threlfall and I’m the Editor/Publisher of ‘www.internetwondersezine.com’ which is a …)

Do you see what I’ve done?

I’ve incorporated my ‘Domain Name’ in quotes into my First 70 to 80 characters of my description so when they click on my ‘About Me’ and read my profile they’ll also see my Domain Name, and if they wish to find out more about me they can either ‘Copy and Paste or Type’ my domain into there browser which will then bring them to my website where they can either ‘Subscribe’ to my newsletter or read my sale copy which will then get them to Opt-In to my newsletter.

This is where the ‘List Building’ starts to take place from the traffic sent through Amazon.

Now, we’ve already established that Amazon is a High Traffic website and now that you’ve set up your ‘About Me Area’ the way I’ve outlined it above I’m now going to show you how to direct Amazon’s traffic to your website.

Step #5. Directing Amazon’s traffic to your website.

This is where the fun starts. And once you see How its done you’ll probably kick yourself in the butt like I did when I was shown How-To do this.

What we need to do now is a little exercise so you’ll see for yourself how you’ll tap into Amazon’s traffic.

So, we know that Amazon is best known for Books, so click on the ‘Books’ tab within Amazon’s members area. This will take you to a different page.

In the upper left corner you’ll see a ‘Search Books’ search box.

Now, for the purpose of this exercise, just so that we’re on the same page, lets use ‘internet marketing’ as the search term.

So, go ahead and type that in and press GO!.

You should now see a bunch of listings on books related to ‘internet marketing’.

Scroll down and select the “33 Days To Online Profits” link. This will bring you to its Product Description page.

Within this Product Description page you’ll find Product Details, Editorial Reviews and most important of all, All Customer Reviews.

Notice I said “and most important of all, All Customer Reviews”.

Thats right, all you need to do is ‘Write Reviews’ on books within your particular Niche and when potential customers are reviewing the book you wrote the review on and they scroll down and happen to read your review and click on Your Name to see what you’re all about, guess what they’ll see?

They’ll see your profile with your Name, Nick Name, eMail Address and your ‘About Me’ description with your Domain Name screaming out at them which can easily be typed into there browser.

There you have it, “5 Quick and Easy Steps On HOW-TO Send Your Website A SURGE Of Amazon’s Traffic For FREE!”

I truly hope you see the benefits of writing reviews and how it will make you look in the eyes of your potential customer.

This is a great tactic to use if you’re looking to establish yourself as an Expert within your Niche and at the same time, build a HIGHLY targeted ‘Opt-In’ list that you can market to for years to come.
