4 BIG PICTURE Steps to Biz Online

As stormy as the internet ocean may seem, it is NOT constantly changing, at least not at a fundamental level.

Sure, there are always important new developments coming along, and things that were important a few years ago drifting off into irrelevance.

But beneath all that surface flux, solid ground of e-business remains unchanged. When you are starting out keep your eyes on the BIG picture.

1. Identify your unique place on the web. Find your niche and create your unique voice.
2. Build an audience. This is true whether you have a blog, a website or an e-mail list.
3. Keep your readers engaged. Give them GREAT content and VALUABLE information. 
4. THEN AND ONLY THEN - Monetize! Introduce them to the BEST products and services for your niche.

Once you understand the big picture of online business success the "how" details take care of themselves.

Hey there.

I know I havn't posted much in the last month or so.

I have been working on 2 (THAT'S RIGHT!!! I SAID TWO, web businesses.)

Many of you know that my aruba-sunsets.com site has been up since November 2008, although I can't say it made much profit the first few years.

Well, now that that is running on autopilot, I took some time to focus on a few new ventures.

One is a new Site Build It! Site, in an entirely new niche! The hardest part there is deciding what I want to write about and teach.

The second one is an e-mail marketing business in the Personal Development niche. Funny how I fell into this business...

I will be setting up a blog for both businesses and I will post a link as soon as it is up!

I took a course on the law of attraction and goal setting called Future of Wealth. The same guy who taught that course, was offering a internet e-mail marketing course called Inbox Blueprint. He also had some other business products he endorsed, like selling on Amazon, and creating a branded product, etc. But, I am just not ready to sell my own PHYSICAL products at this point.

Anyway. I just thought I would check in and let you know what I have been up to.

How Lazy Affiliates Make Money With Facebook

Well here's something you don't see every day. This video got my attention in the first 2 seconds! 

Remember Chris Carpenter? Well, he is FLYING 5,000 feet in the air, with NO AIRPLANE in this video. For reals! 

Chris is the guy who, about 10 years ago, turned the marketing world upside down with his Google Cash program. He PROVED that it was possible to make tons of money online with out a website or a product by putting affiliate links directly into ADWORDS ads.

Well, he’s back he's doing it again! This time with Facebook and Bing.

You've got to see this video - it’s got 7 wicked easy steps to create massive profit from Facebook. By the way, all his techniques are free (so this is not paid Facebook ads). Just like his Google Cash program, this one requires:

- No website

- No email list

- No product

- No Selling

 
Trust me, checkout the video - you’ll learn TONS!

Watch This Video: 7 Simple Facebook Steps! (He also uses his flying as a metaphor for online marketing.) But, that doesn't make it any less cool! I so want to try it... flying, 

AND 

his new Facebook Affiliate Marketing Program that capitalizes on recent changes at Facebook. I'm tellin' ya... watch the video. Its FREE (for now) to see how it works.

If you decide to purchase the complete program, there is a 60 day, money back guarantee, so you can't loose. Think of all those people who regretted not jumping on the Google Adsense bandwagon at the start, before everyone else flooded the market. Don't miss out on this opportunity!

How To Research a Web Biz Niche

Finally, after many weeks of emergencies, distractions and family injury, I am now focused on my new SiteSell Site Build It! Infopreneur web site.

What is an Infopreneur, you ask? Basically it is person who makes money selling information on the Internet by targeting the right audience. And by "selling information" I mean, publishing information that may appeal to a specific market. That topic will be discussed later.

Today, I am researching my site niche. When starting a new business, online or off, it is important that you do your research. You want to be as close to certain as you can be that your business will succeed.

In my post 5 Fundamental Keys to a Successful Web Business, I explain  that your new web business MUST...

• Excite you
• Have a topic that is in demand
• Be in demand, but NOT TOO BROAD
• Be in sync with the amount of time you are willing to devote to it
• Have GREAT ROI potential

The first bullet point is the only one that does not require research. You know your passions. The rest are what will make that passion into a successful online business.

So, how do you know if your passion is in demand, but not too broad? How do you know the ROI (Return on Investment) potential? How can you tell if 15 hours a week will be enough time to devote to your new business?

By using the Brainstorm It! tool developed by SiteSell to research and analyze your site concept, your key words and your possible monetization model, you can be confident that your business is off to a good start.

The new and improved Brainstorm It! online software tool is free, included in the all-in-one price of SBI! (Site Build It!)

The free web business tools dont' stop with just Brainstorm It! SBI! includes all the tools you will need, to build a web business. From hosting, domain name registration and site design tools (tools to design your website without any knowledge of HTML code.) To automatic search engine pinging and tracking and search engine ranking reports. To a tool to your own e-mail lists and auto-responders (Form Build It!). These are just a few things that are included.

One of my biggest mistakes when I first started out was using one of those FREE web page sites. That "free" website was definitely NOT FREE after adding e-mail service, pinging service (to get Google, Yahoo, MSN, and AOL to notice my site - Bing was not around yet.) And when I asked them about creating a request form so I could build an e-mail list...OH BOY!... To write the code I needed, they required a huge payment, AND I would never actually own the email list. (Meaning that they could use it to SELL THEIR PRODUCTS TO MY READERS!)

I only use SBI! and won't go back to anything less.

OK getting off my soapbox now.

I found my niche, and developed my personal "spin". I started researching my key words. Each key word will b e a page in my site, focused on that one word. I will be posting more about Key Words and how to find the best ones to use in the the next few posts.
