Marketing Resources
The secret to any online business is traffic to your site.  In other words, you want a lot of
people viewing your online opportunity.  The more people visiting your website, the better
chance you have of success.  There are many ways to drive traffic and I am going to focus
here on the
no cost and low cost ways for getting exposure to your site.  First, lets cover
some basic key principles you will need to follow for your marketing efforts.
  • Consistency is the primary key to a successful marketing
    campaign.  In other words, you need to post ads every
    day or several times per week consistently.  365 days
    per year times an average of 3 ads per day is over 1,000
    ads per year.  If you want online success - you must
    consistently post online ads to build and drive traffic to
    your websites.

  • Strive to post ads that will run online for the long-term.  
    The reason for this is simple.  Every time you post an ad
    with a long-term run time, for example, a year or longer,
    then you are building an ad portfolio for every ad you
    place.  The goal is to BUILD traffic to your websites and
    you want your ads to be cumulative in nature.

  • This is a business - run it like one.  Think like the CEO of
    a major company and set goals that are achievable.  A
    goal of complete financial independence for any online
    business in 1 month or even 1 year is not typical for
    most people.  Instead, set a multi-year plan to grow a
    business over 5 years.  Statistics show that people who
    do this succeed in far greater numbers than people who
    do not.  Be committed to succeed like a CEO.
http://www.ezbizfreeads.adpost.com - This is a good international way to post ads for free.  They also have a paid
service I like that is affordable and gets you featured exposure - well worth the money because it increases your traffic
significantly.

http://www.backpage.com - This is another good resource to post free online classified ads.  However, I also like to use
their paid services as well.  In most cases, for about six dollars, you can post your ad and set it to renew and go to the
top of the ad category every 7 days for 26 weeks.  You can also do a feature ad for about three dollars per week in
most markets.  That is an incredible value.  The free ads are great but I like to take advantage of the paid services
because they are low cost and drive more traffic.  Recommended use:  Daily or weekly.


http://www.craigslist.org - Craigslist is a free classified ad site.  I like to post a few ads here about once a month.  
Overuse will get your ads banned by Craigslist administration.  The best way to post to Craigslist is to post to the right
categories and the city nearest to you.  Some people have figured out ways to beat Craigslist and post to multiple cities
and categories, but it takes too much time and is too much trouble in my view.  As such, I use Craigslist a few times a
month. Recommended use: Once or twice a month and post ads to the city you live nearest to.  Also - I don't
recommend creating an account as for some reason, this seems to increase your chances of having your ads deleted
by Craigslist admin.  I just post the ads and then click the email verification they send.


http://www.exactseek.com - ExactSeek has a "Guaranteed Top 10 Exposure" ad service that allows you to purchase a
box ad for $36 and it is good for an entire year.  As such, your monthly cost is $3 per month per ad.  Just go to
ExactSeek and click on the banner that advertises the "Guaranteed Top 10 Exposure" ad service.  You will pick a
keyword and write your ad.  For example, you might pick keyword phrase "Make Money Online" and your ad might look
something like this:

Make Money Online
Fully Automated Online System
Try Us Out For Free - Join Today

You will enter the website address of your site where indicated so that when people click on your ad, they are taken
immediately to your site.  The way the service works is that when someone searches on "Make Money Online" or some
combination thereof, your ad will appear in the top 10 sponsored search results on over 200 2nd and 3rd tier search
engines.  What I like about this service is that no matter how many clicks you get, its only $36 per year per ad.  I buy at
least one ad per month.  If done well, each ad should average about 1,000 clicks per year.  As such, purchasing one
ad per month will eventually produce 12 ads giving you a volume of approximately 12,000 clicks annually.


TrafficSwarm - TrafficSwarm is free to join but I like the pro service level at $30 per month.  The reason is that for $30
per month, they give you 2,500 credits monthly and you also earn extra credits for recruiting other members.  Credits
translate into visitors to your website.  TrafficSwarm also has a 5 level payout on referrals that upgrade to pro level.  As
such, you break even on your $30 with only 6 paying members in your first level downline.  Some people are actually
earning a nice monthly income from the TrafficSwarm affiliate program and so can you.

Sign up for TrafficSwarm and then post an ad and start driving traffic to your website.  Additionally, recommend
TrafficSwarm to your downline using the affiliate link they give you in your backoffice.  It is a consistent traffic producer
and easy to use - you set your ad and forget it - the traffic is perpetual and auto-renewing.


ClixSense - ClixSense is a paid to read ad service and can be very effective.  I use this service about once or twice per
month with good results.  I recommend joining and then upgrading your account to a premium member for $10 per
year.  Premium membership qualifies you for the affiliate program and they have a 5 level payout.


http://www.e-mailpaysu.com - e-mailpaysu is another paid to read ad service like ClixSense.  I use it once or twice a
month and have had good results with it.  I like to purchase the $10 combo of 1,000 pay-per-click visitors plus 300
targeted emails.  The $22 for 1,000 targeted emails is a good value also.  

Check out their sister site,
http://www.cashmoneyemail.com .


http://www.rent-a-list.com - This service offers targeted and general email campaigns to a list of known business
opportunity seekers.  You can also purchase targeted traffic and run banner and text ads to drive traffic to your site.  
Use once or twice per month.


Leadsomatic - Leadsomatic is $10 per month and allows you to blast out an unlimited number of classified ads to
thousands of sites all across the Internet.  It is part of the powerful
Veretekk marketing system.  To be effective, you
must use Leadsomatic daily or at a minimum, several times per week.  I concentrate my ads into about 4 or 5 different
ads and then blast these ads out as often as I can - daily works best.  If you do not use Leadsomatic daily or several
times per week, it will not work well.  Leadsomatic has an affiliate program where you can refer members and earn.


BlogFather - Create your own blog at BlogFather for free and publish it.  BlogFather is another part of the Veretekk
marketing system.  Your blog will automatically be added to the BlogFather RSS channels giving you marketing
exposure on the web for free.  For example, you could write a blog on why your home based business makes sense to
join.


Friendswin - Friendswin is a social networking site similar to MySpace with one exception - Friendswin Pays!  Most of
the people on this site are looking for home business or online opportunities and you can build a network of friends
that you can market to.  The cost to join is $9.97 per month plus $50 annually if you want to be involved in the affiliate
program.  Bottom line on this program - you can build a network of friends that you can send weekly marketing emails
to.
Beginner Level Marketing Resources:

USFreeAds - This is one of my favorite free to super low cost ad services.  You can post ads for free but they expire
after 45 days.  If you join at the paid level of $10 per month, you can post unlimited number of ads and set them all to
auto-renew every 45 days, keeping your ads active.  I like to post the lead capture pages that
SimpleGDI gives you.  
Recommended use:  Daily.

For example, take a look at one of my actual ads:  
http://www.usfreeads.com/1049513-cls.html

Check out all my USFreeAds HERE

For $10 per month, you can post as many ads as you want every day and set them all to auto-renew.  Its a great traffic
builder.  
Tip:  After you post your ad, view your ad and then copy and paste the website address of your ad to a search
engine submission service like
http://www.submitexpress.com.  This can give your ad more exposure by making it
findable in the major search engines like Google, Yahoo and MSN.
Advanced Level Marketing:

SimpleGDI - For the GDI marketers, SimpleGDI offers advanced marketing and autoresponder follow-up capabilities in
one simple to use package.  You are given several professional lead capture pages that you advertise.  Visitors are
asked to enter their contact information in the form to receive a free tour of the business opportunity.  Once they take
the tour, the SimpleGDI system automatically sends follow-up email to your prospects to keep them coming back to
your GDI site.  You can also add email letters to the follow-up campaign beyond what SimpleGDI gives you right out of
the box.  And, they have a feature where you can enter the name and email address of every new member where you
can broadcast email your entire downline, a very nice feature.  The cost is reasonable at $7.95 per month.  There is a
one time $10 sign-up fee as well.


Veretekk - Veretekk is a powerful professional marketing system.  It produces quality leads by giving you several
different websites that offer free and paid services to people who may be looking to earn money in an online business
or home business.  For example, some of the websites offered are:

BlastoMatic - A site that blasts out ads to thousands of ad sites for free.

BlogFather - Offer your own free blog site.

Veremail - Offer multiple spam-free email addresses.

These are just a few examples,
Veretekk actually gives you dozens of more sites that you can custom configure
including your own welcome message on each site as well as setting the web page title, description, and keywords for
each site.  This is important for search engine optimization so that your sites can be found through the keyword
searches you target.  Note on my sites that my online businesses are linked in on each page and actually promote my
other online businesses.  Search Engines see this and it helps get my businesses noticed in free search results.

Veretekk gives you the ability through
Leadsomatic to then blast out these promotional sites to thousands upon
thousands upon thousands of ad sites all across the Internet.  Frequent blasting works best.  Your sites then begin
attracting prospects who enter their contact information on your Veretekk sites.  Once they do this, the Veretekk
autoresponder goes to work automatically sending the email campaign of your choice to your prospects.  I also like
using "The Drill" in your Veretekk backoffice under Portal Marketing.  "The Drill" literally drills out any classified ad that
you want to a multitude of classified ad sites to get your site noticed by search engines.  Search Engines love to find
the links pointing to your website and the more links (or ads) you have pointing to your online business, the better
chance your site will be listed in free search results, driving free traffic to your site.

I also recommend submitting all of your Veretekk promotional websites for inclusion in search engine results.  I like to
use this free service:  
http://www.submitexpress.com

The system also gives you dozens of email addresses, that are filtered into one account.  The purpose of this is to
attract email to these email addresses.  The system automatically captures the sender email and then puts them in
your que for your email campaigns.  In other words, you can use these email addresses to sign up for free offers, post
on the Internet, etc.  You want to attract email because the people emailing you are people looking to make money
online - your target audience.  The system automatically verifies all email addresses and removes bad addresses
leaving you with a clean spam free list for you to market to.  My list of emails to market to grows daily and my Veretekk
system is pushing out my email campaigns 24/7.  

For your one filtered email account, I recommend signing up with gmail at
http://www.gmail.com and setting up the POP
settings according to Veretekk's instructions.  You will receive a ton of spam and email to the Veretekk email addresses
and gmail is excellent at filtering true spam from the more legitimate messages.  Gmail also automatically checks your
Veretekk email throughout the day so you don't have to worry about your Veretekk mailbox overflowing and clogging
up.  That is a concern for most Veretekk marketers and gmail solves that problem for free.

The Veretekk system is $44.95 per month and is worth every penny and more.  I generate good quality leads every
month with Veretekk and my autoresponders are custom configured to send the email I want to send to my prospects.  
Veretekk is compliant with the Federal spam law to keep your marketing efforts legal.
