Google got hacked?

Posted September 7th, 2011. Filed under Affiliate Marketing

Google Cash Monster

I never thought it could happen to the mighty G…

But these affiliates have finally found a way to hack Google and steal all of the traffic for major products for FREE.

The best thing is, it can’t be hacked.

Google has to sit and watch, as hundreds of underground affiliates swipe traffic with automated websites…without paying a single cent for clicks.

The G empire hates it…but the affiliates who are already using this are freaking out with excitement…and banking a lot of money each day.

I don’t say this often, but the Google Cash Monster contains a legit loophole that allows you to steal free traffic with practically zero effort.

And it’s never been done like this before…

If you’re not getting lots of traffic right now, or if you’re paying over the odds for traffic that isn’t converting…then you owe it to yourself to check this out, before it gets pulled down.

Which Mailing Format Is Best? by Bob Bly

Posted September 6th, 2011. Filed under Business

One of the most common questions my copywriting clients ask me when doing direct mail is which format is best – a postcard, self-mailer, or sales letter?

Here are some guidelines to help you answer that question:

>> When in doubt, go for a sales letter with reply element in a #10 envelope…still the most powerful and proven format.

>> Self-mailers work well when your product is visual (e.g. selling vacation cruises, Christmas lights) and you want the prospect to see pictures right away.

>> Postcards work best when driving response to a website URL or toll-free phone number.

>> Letters in envelopes work best when selling professional or technical services, and with promotions that have an emotional appeal or a story to tell (e.g. life insurance).

Your Publishing Options At A Glance by Bob Bly

Posted September 5th, 2011. Filed under Business

There are 3 basic options for publishing a book:

1 – Self-publish it as an e-book.
2 – Self-publish it as a physical book.
3 – Sell it to a mainstream publisher (e.g., John Wiley & Sons).

I am frequently asked which publishing option is best. My answer is always the same:

>> #1 has the highest margin and profit potential. Choose it if your primary goal is to make money with your book.

>> #3 has the most prestige. Choose it if you want to use the book to promote your career or business.

>> #2 has some prestige but not as much as #3, and has better margins than #3 but less than #1. It’s a good choice for professional speakers who need a book to promote themselves to meeting planners and have a product to sell at their talks.

25 Must-Dos For Ultimate Online Success

Posted September 4th, 2011. Filed under Internet Marketing

1: Let people know about your affiliate program. Submit it to numerous affiliate program directories, announce it in your newsletter, put it in your signature file, etc.

2: Tell your visitors exactly what you want them to do at your website. You may want them to order products, subscribe to your newsletter, etc.

3: Focus your site on your visitor’s desires, not on yourself. They want to know what’s in it for them!

4: Try not to get caught up in loading your site with technological gizmos and gadgets. Concentrate on your words, they will do the actual selling.

5: Create your own ad copy; don’t copy the basic run of the mill ad copy. Don’t be afraid of trying something different to increase your sales.

6: Change you ads regularly. Your prospects can get bored seeing the same ad all the time. They usually see the ad 7 times before they actually buy.

7: Lower your negative word-of-mouth marketing. You’ll always have customers that are dissatisfied. Try to please them as much as possible.

8: Give people a deadline to order. Tell people if they order by Feb 28, 2011 they will get a discount or free bonuses. This creates a sense of urgency so they don’t put off buying.

9: Offer people a money back guarantee. The longer the guarantee the more effective it will be. It could be a 30 day, 60-day, 1-year, or lifetime guarantee.

10: Have some business cards printed up with your web site address and other business information. Pass them out to people you meet or that might be interested in your business.

11: Have a magnetic sign made with your website address. Place it on your car door or roof when you are traveling.

12: Have some flyers printed out with your website address. Keep a few with you to hang on bulletin boards you may come across in your travels.

13: Have some pens imprinted with your website name. When you are done filling out your check or signing receipts leave it there for the next person to use or keep.

14: Have some mugs imprinted with your website address and other business information. Use them when you have company or give them away to friends as gifts.

15: Write your ad copy like you’re talking directly to your visitors. Use the words “you”, “your”, and “you’re” a lot in your ad copy.

16: Create a free e-book directory on a specific topic at your website. People will visit your website to read the free e-books and may see your product ad.

17: Place colorful graphs, pie charts and other charts in your ad copy. Use charts that will grab a persons eye and also support your product claims.

18: Highlight buying incentives like free bonuses and money-back guarantees. You could place them in boxes or in front of a different colored background.

19: Use short sentences or sentence fragments in the body of your ad copy. A short burst of words can catch a skimmer’s eye with one quick glance.

20: Highlight all the important keywords and phrases in your ad copy. You could use bolding, underlining and color to highlight the important words.

21: Use a headline that catches the attention of your target audience. One of the most effective ways is to use a free offer as your headline.

22: Use attention grabbing adjectives to describe your product. For example sizzling, high power, killer, eye-popping, etc.

23: You could create a new market for your existing product. For example, if you’re selling plastic bottles to a pop company, you could turn around and sell those bottles to a fruit drink company.

24: Offer a free trial or sample of your product. This increases the perceived value because people think you’re confident in your product, so it must be good.

25: Package your product with a lot of bonuses. This increases the perceived value because people feel they are getting more for their money.

The Video Squeeze by Paul Colligan

Posted September 3rd, 2011. Filed under Audio/Video Marketing

What if you could add a single process into your Internet Marketing efforts that resulted in better conversion? A process that also automatically sifted and sorted your user base, was easier to produce than the alternative, and had a list of side bonuses with no additional efforts?

In truth this article is about two things: the “squeeze page” (which I’ll call a “squeeze” from this point on) and the addition of a video element to the squeeze page process. The strategy behind the squeeze is solid and the addition of video allows your audience to quickly know, like and trust you—all of which are essential elements to closing any and every sale.

Closing that sale, through squeeze methodology, only happens when you have their name and e-mail address—and that’s accomplished through a successful squeeze page.

Let’s face it, video on the Internet is very ‘sexy’ right now—leveraging it in the squeeze page process will produce some very interesting results.

About The Squeeze…

The concept behind a squeeze (also called a ‘list grab’) is simple: send your audience to a page that only has one option—the entry of an e-mail address. Sometimes a squeeze page will also ask for a name (or additional pieces of information) but the end game is always the same—get the user to give you the info you need to market to them on a regular basis, not just the one-time option provided by the existing page.

Because there are no options on a squeeze page other than information collection, the % collected are considerably higher than in any other medium. I’ve seen squeeze pages that convert as high as 80%.

Some marketers are a bit nervous about using the squeeze for one simple reason—they’re concerned that they can’t put enough information on a squeeze page to get a user to know, like and trust them enough to “make the sale”, or convert in whatever way is desired.

While this is an understandable concern, the facts are simple: if a user doesn’t trust you enough to give you their name and e-mail address, you’ll never convert them to anything else.

So, don’t worry about people who won’t give you their e-mail address (because some won’t, no matter who you are), worry about the people who will.

The goal of a squeeze page is to sort the audience between people who will trust you with information and those who won’t. You end the short process with a list of people hungry for your marketing messages.

Truth be told, most pages try to pull that off via nothing but text. Whereas, yes, I get the irony of pointing out the limits of such in print, it is still important to point out that anything you can do to speed up that process is recommended highly. You’ll often see squeeze pages with pictures, audio, and video that all support the end goal of collecting user information. Obviously, we’ll focus on the integration of video here.

We’re a visual world. People respond to visuals and place a considerably higher value on them over other forms of media. Video is the top player in visual communications for the simple reason that is in fact multiple frames of visual content per second. Consider how many people watch news on television versus read the paper and how many suddenly jumped on the iPod bandwagon once they introduced video and…do the math.

For those who eat, sleep, drink the world of Internet communications, we often forget that the “average” user doesn’t. These are the ones who visit Google to do a search on “www.google.com” (it’s almost always in the top ten) and the squeeze page often encourages them to “submit a form” or complete other tasks that simply weren’t part of anyone’s lexicon 10 years ago. With video on a squeeze page you can explain the process, even point to the form elements. By showing your face, you make it personal, and conversions go up considerably.

You’d be surprised how many people don’t know how to fill out a simple form. But you know what? Your warm face online, walking them through the process, changes everything.

So, how is this done? It’s actually much easier than you’d expect…

You 1) produce the video and 2) publish it online. Once that’s done you 3) embed the video using a video player on your squeeze page and 4) collect information accordingly.

FYI, a video squeeze almost always has the video set to play the second the page loads.

Word of caution: your video has to demonstrate the trust you are asking your visitors to demonstrate. Post video worth leaving your name and e-mail address for.

Numbers…

The numbers in a squeeze process are considerable. Instead of having a single chance to convert a buyer to a single product, adding them to a mailing list gives you as many chances as you can e-mail. Even if you can only get one out of every four people who visit your squeeze to give you their name and email, the lifetime access to that customer is exponentially more viable (and potentially profitable) than the single-minded approach of one-off pages that so many employ.

Another great thing about squeezes is that they quickly let your marketing decisions become as simple as running numbers. If you know your page converts 40% (low) and it costs a dime to bring someone to that page, you now know that adding someone to your list costs forty cents. You can then determine if you can make more than 40 cents per name on the list. If you can, you run as many dime clicks through that page as possible. If you can’t, you refine the process until you can.

The numbers change dramatically when you can convert more people on your squeeze page. Video will help. That is what the rest of this piece is about (oh yeah, with a bonus trick too).

Quick Recommendations…

I’d like to offer some additional simple suggestions for creation of video content:

First of all, the video player is crucial. Not only must it auto-play without any interaction from the user, it also must not advertise anything else other than the video you are playing. Using the (traditional) video player from a popular video hosting service (no matter how cool) will result in lost conversions. In short, if your users can go anywhere or do anything on the player, you need to find one that works. More on that in a second.

Secondly, audio is more important than you think. A great-looking video with bad sound makes you look bad. Looking bad has a way of decreasing conversions. ‘Nuff said.

Finally, the video doesn’t have to be a special effects spectacular. In fact, this could distract your audience.

Some of the best (most effective) video squeezes are a simple, well-lit face with good audio explaining why they should sign up accordingly.

Remember, the squeeze (video or other) has one simple purpose: get the user to enter their e-mail address (and often name). That is the single purpose of the page. Explain how great the product is later—after you have their address.

Nothing makes more sales than an e-mail and we don’t expect that to change for a long time.

Technology…

To pull off a squeeze you need a 1) page to place the squeeze on, a 2) video player (without distractions) and 3) an automated email collection and management system.

Page: To be as effective as possible, your squeeze needs to be on a single page without any other links on it. While this can be done in a Blog, the “hacks” required to move all links from a blog is considerably more complicated than creating a simple HTML squeeze page.

Video Player: As mentioned above, the player must not have any other options on it than playing the video and playing it automatically. Third-party players usually won’t do this for you. Find one that does.

Automated E-mail Collection: I believe there are really only two options in the e-mail game anymore: Aweber or InfusionSoft.

The YouTube Squeeze Twist…

This one is good.

Are you ready?

Place your squeeze page video on YouTube.com.

Paul, doesn’t their player do all the things you said not to do above?

Yes, their player does.

There are other players that play YouTube video without all the YouTube nonsense?

Yes, there are.

But, wait, Paul, if I did that, I could a) get free hosting of my video and b) get credit in YouTube views every time someone viewed my video at a squeeze?

Yes, you could…

Paul, really, how does that work?

Click here and you’ll see a YouTube video that explains all.

Heck, with the YouTube QuickCapture Feature (Google it), you can even record right to YouTube without having to edit a thing on your desktop. Remember what we said about high-quality videos though.

Oh, and about the people who find your video on YouTube.com proper, include a little something for them so they can find their way to your squeeze page as well. YouTube annotations, a verbal welcome to the domain name hosting your squeeze, and a link in your YouTube description can help pull that off.

In Summary

The squeeze builds your mailing list faster than anything else out there. If you aren’t using squeezes, start TODAY.

Anything you can do on your squeeze to get more people to know like and trust you, the better off you are. Video is one easy way to do that and should be implemented immediately in any squeeze plans you have planned – or have in production. Have the video play automatically when the user visits the page and walk them through the process of signing up for your information. This will increase your conversions (and later, profits) considerably.

The YouTube Squeeze Twist will host your video for free and get your video views counted on YouTube. It’s the best of both worlds and leaves you, dear reader, without an excuse!

  • Use a good video player
  • Make sure your audio is outstanding
  • Don’t worry about special effects
  • Use a premier automated e-mail collection system
  • Don’t forget the YouTube Squeeze Twist
