The
Very First 3 Steps To Niche Marketing Are...
If
we ask you to do a search on niche marketing articles, we'd be
out of business :) Fact is we want to address just how anyone
can dabble in a niche, even if you know nothing about that niche.
First
of all, all things being equal (knowing how to set up a site,
update fresh content, sell an info-product), it's only the subject
matter that's the biggest challenge we are dealing with.
The
first 3 steps from the starting point are:
1.
Give yourself a chance to...open your mind.
, have you heard of the saying "Once the
mind opens like a parachute, it will never go back to its original
size"? BIG statement Nelson had ever heard back in 2002.
The key to opening your mind is seriously look out for words.
Words are everywhere, not just on the Net, but
on the bus, in shopping malls, airports, newspapers, magazines,
advertisements etc. Information becomes an asset. You
also hear them in people's conversations. Then all you need to
do is filter out redundant words to arrive at one which you resonate
with..."scrapbooking", or "iguanas" or "torque"
or "parachute". Parachute? You say, "What?"
But others say, "Aha! I can associate parachute with
'skydiving', 'cliff-jumping'..."
That's
right, the market is yours if you choose to conquer it.
Why stare at a single
tree when there's a forest around you?
2.
Give yourself a chance to be...interested. Look
at it this way: If an Iraqi boy suddenly develops a fanatical
interest in...all things sheep (shearing, wool etc.), what is
stopping him from doing a little research and setting up an online
store selling wool products? He can even write an e-book on "how
to knit your own wool". If he so chooses, he will provide
such a service as it is demanded and overtake the wool industry
of New Zealand by e-commerce.
3.
Give yourself a chance to...succeed. All businesses
require manpower, effort and dedication as usual. You are only
willing to carry on because the keyword/industry has a lucrative
value in the first place.

move on to the next section.

How
To Create More Content For Your Site With Less Effort
We
identify 3 main channels for getting such content:
1.
Private
label articles, where you can own articles in your own name
as the 'author'.
2.
Get someone to write for you.
3.
Articles from public domains like directories.
There
are already a number of software that do the job of 'pulling'
articles from main sources and publish them straight on your site. Now, there's something you need to know about
how content determines the overall quality of your site. Google
SE is increasingly paying better attention to this x-factor. We
don't know how it determines quality by its algorithms, but someone
once wrote a very wise statement: "1 good, original
article of your own beats 100,000 regurgitated pages any day."
We
can tell you this is very true because webmasters are always looking
for more articles to compliment their sites (so might as well
have your name on it) and SEs are capable of de-indexing "same
old, same old" pages like flies.
However,
you do need to build as many pages as possible off the starting
block to get noticed by the SEs. After you have got around 200
pages indexed, you should be focusing more on your USP, present
your best and value-add to your site.
We
are surprised by Brad Callen who, in his latest report, says that
for a start, you should exchange as many links as possible even
if the other link is PR0 or not compatible with your subject matter.
Then later, you go for quality exchanges. Same strategy being
used. Here's the report.
You
should also set up a blog and link it to your main site. It becomes
an additional platform for content. A highly recommended practice
is you write a post every day, but if you can't, there are always
software to help you out by pulling feeds from other places.
Why
do you need so many pages? To earn income of course, and one method
is publishing Google ads on them. You get the
idea when you read through the variety of content in IMC's article
section.

How
To Create Products Without Banging Your Head
There
is only one crucial principle you need to know: demand-supply,
problem-solution, action-reaction...you get the idea. Your creativity
which comes from conscious and purposeful searching for solutions
to problems and for ways and means of capitalizing on opportunities
to fulfill demands with supplies stems from this principle. Read
this article
for detail.
Don't
wait for the perfect e-book to write, whatever that means. Things
are never perfect. The world market is full of 2 things: problems
and interest, and
there's no better time than to start NOW. The first step is get
to know the problem by getting involved. Getting involved
means communication. Write to people in the forums. Join online
interest groups like the Yahoo!
Groups or MSN
Groups. Survey your subscribers. Alternatively, do keyword
research on Google AdWord Keyword Tool
or Wordtracker
to find out what people are searching for these days.
Simply
ask a question to gain feedback and leads with which you can respond
back with a solution or idea. Sell your knowledge.
Keep a lookout for affiliate programs that compliment your site
so that you can quickly solve the problem by representing a resource
that is currently on the market.

Power Of Positive Thinking

********************
The
Power Of Positive Thinking
Be
careful of what we ask for, we just night get it.
Your
words, your dreams and your thoughts have power to create conditions
in your life.
What
you speak about, you can bring about.
If
you keep saying you can't stand your job, you might lose your
job.
If
you keep saying you can't stand your body, your body can become
sick.
If
you keep saying you can't stand your car, your car could be stolen
or just stop operating.
If
you keep saying you are always broke, guess what? You'll always
be broke.
If
you keep saying you can't find a job, guess what? You'll remain
unemployed.
If
you keep saying you can't trust a man or woman, you'll always
find someone in your lifeto hurt and betray you.
If
you keep saying you can't find someone to love you or believe
you, your very thoughts will atrract more experiences to confirm
your beliefs.
Turn
your thoughts and conversations around to be more positive and
power packed with failth, hope, love and action.
Don't
be afraid to believe that you CAN have what you want and deserve.
Watch
your thoughts...they become words.
Watch
your words...they become action.
Watch
your actions...they become habits.
Watch
your habits...they become character.
Watch
your character...for it becomes your Destiny.
