A Very Simple Method To Divert Lost Traffic

 

Experienced webmasters must have been aware that by erasing a couple of pages or even directories from their sites, future visitors will get a "Page not found" error at the old web address. It's a waste of good traffic.

To fix this, you just need to implement an .htaccess file that will redirect all of that wasted traffic to where you want.

Here are the steps to do this:

Step 1: Create a file on your computer and name it .htaccess. Make sure the period is there before the "h" when you create it.

Step 2: Open the file you just created in a text editor and put the below text between the --- lines inside the file.

--------
ErrorDocument 404
http://www.yourdomain.com/whatever.html
--------

The "yourdomain.com/whatever.html" is whatever one of your pages on your website you want all of this lost traffic to go to.

Step 3: Upload the file to the same directory that your index.html file is.

That is it. Now whenever somebody goes to a page that you deleted, or misspells a web page on your site, they are redirected back to whatever page you specify instead of getting a 404 error page.

We suggest you send them back to your salesletter which is where they are supposed to be anyway.

3 Ways To Increase Conversion Rates

 

1. Make a promise: First, your home page should make it very clear what you do. As in the statement, "We sell printer cartridges." But also make a promise. As in, "You'll never run out of printer cartridges again." The statement is about you. And it's useful in letting people know they are in the "right place". The promise is about them. And there is a real benefit stated there. This may be copywriting 101, to lead with a benefit, but it's surprising how many sites don't follow this simple and proven principle.

Example: With world-class customer service, 24/7 technical support, and 99.9% server uptime, you can stop worrying about your site going down!

2. Make an offer: This is standard in just about every direct mail package. This isn't the same as a promise. An offer is when you give someone something extra, at no cost to the buyer. Maybe it's a free calculator. Or a better price if you subscribe for longer. Or 30 days free. Even a free serving of garlic bread with your pizza.

Try to do the same with your website. With a free report. Free shipping. A free download. A free consultation. A free gift. Or free gift wrapping.

Example: Order now and get Forever Free Domains! (or Free Setup, Activation, Web Builder, Photo Gallery, Web Blog)

3. Guarantee it: Direct marketers know that buyers are often nervous about buying over the phone or by mailing an envelope. So they wrap everything up in a guarantee. Be delighted or get your money back. Online we also know that many people feel nervous about parting with their money over the Internet, particularly if it is the first time they have bought something at our site. But where are our guarantees? Too often they are found in the small print somewhere, qualified with all sorts of legal nonsense.

If you want to make your prospects and buyers feel secure, make the guarantee bold. Say it loud. Have it jump out at people. Let them know that they are protected if they choose to buy.

Example: With a 1-Year money-back guarantee, you have nothing to lose!

10 Blockbuster Ways To Ignite Your Sales

2. Join online business associations or clubs. If you join, they will usually list all their members on their website. It will give your business extra exposure.

3. Utilize a simple form of viral marketing. Write or have someone else write a small report with your ad included on it and allow others to give it away.

4. Improve your business by promoting customer feedback. Tell them you want their honest opinions about your business, good or bad.

5. Design your packaging so it sells your products. Utilize colors and lettering that make your product more attractive to your prospects.

6. Compare your product's guarantee to your main competitors. Find a niche were your can design your guarantee to be more powerful.

7. Try not to assume your audience understands everything in your ad copy. If you have words they may not know the meaning to, define them.

8. Build alliances with other online businesses. You could trade links or ads, create joint venture deals, cross promote your products, etc.

Chuck McCullough, who runs Affiliate Match, presents this fact: Well over 82% of all affiliates never get a check over $100—and of the remaining 18%, many of those only get the occasional check. Less than 4% get monthly checks of any real size from most affiliate programs.

Obviously, most affiliates are not doing as well as they should. Do you realize anything you have not done well? If so, check the possible reasons.

Essential Notes:

1) In most cases, think of how you can incorporate and apply helpful ideas gleaned from the information presented in "The Human Inter-dependency Dynamics" section within your immediate surroundings, particularly how you conduct your online business with others and your masterminding groups.

2) All 'self-development' techniques and strategies should be exercised under 100% of your own responsibility and within your best discretion. Although Internet Mastery Center aims to push the frontier by presenting interesting reports on attaining peak performance of the mind, it should not be held liable for undesirable results and neither should you personally recommend all presented techniques and strategies in Internet Mastery Center's name. If you know certain techniques and strategies go against your personal values, belief system and/or conscience, DO NOT CONTINUE to practice them.
