What is one of the best ways to get more visitors to buy your ebook?

Articles, of course!  When you write articles around the key word phrases from your ebook research, you will increase the backward links to your ebook. This is done with a link at the bottom of each of those articles leading people back to your e-book page.  At the bottom of your article, you can write something about the author and what you will give them when they arrive at your website.  Some people call this your ethical bribe.

You can also attract visitors by paying for them.  The next time you search on Google, pay attention to the small ads on the right side of the page.  Those are Google AdWords. You can advertise your site on Google, selecting keywords based on your Internet niche. You only pay when someone clicks on that ad, which whisks them to your webpage.  It only costs pennies per click, and you can set your own budget and search terms.

The third, and most effective, way to get lots of traffic is through search engines. If you have good information on your particular topic, search engines like Google, MSN, Yahoo, and Ask Jeeves will direct a flood of traffic to your site.  This “organic” search engine traffic is free.

Search engines help you find information.  You type in “keywords” based on your preferred topic.  Web spiders then seek out the information you request.  Of course, search engines often return thousands or even millions of potential websites.  Websites that rank most highly are at the top of the list. Customers are most likely to visit those popular websites, so it is important to rank your site as highly as possible.

When these articles become a part of other people’s web pages and blogs, they provide backward links to your site and they establish you an an authority in your market.  This really improves your ranking in search engines and drives visitors to your ebook sales page.

1. Product Reviews Review books, software, electronics, video games, home study courses and more and load them into your autoresponder. Write reviews on affiliate programs and promote your affiliate link for additional cash.

2. Create a mailing list A mailing list can be created to serve as a point of distribution for articles that you might create that you want to get published on websites throughout the internet.

3. Give away free reports An autoresponder can be set up to give website visitors an idea of the level of quality you offer through your products or services. This is vital if you want to earn money at home and you want to avoid creating reports that are basically glorified sales letters.

4. Trivia Quiz This use plays into the aspect of humans that do not like unanswered questions. You provide the questions to a quiz on your website and blog and require the visitors to opt into your autoresponder to get the answers. You can also have a contest where the participants send an email to your autoresponder with the answers to the questions. This way you can capture their email address and can follow up with them in the future.

5. Promote hiding web pages Web pages that you do not necessarily want on your main website, like for example, the page where you store your affiliate resources can be promoted with an autoresponder. What you do is let website visitors know that they can access your affiliate page for free by signing up on your autoresponder. As a result, you will be able to track all visitors to your website who have an interest in being an affiliate for you.

6. Special Offers Using an autoresponder gives you the ability to implement special offers. You can require everyone to sign up on your autoresponder to qualify for the offer, which will opt them into your email list where you can send them emails whenever you have a special offer so you can earn money at home.

7. Links distribution Autoresponders can also be used as a method of sharing links with your website visitors. You can email out a bunch of links to resources related to your website and promote some that make you money as well.

These 7 strategies are just a small portion of what you can do with an autoresponder. Using these strategies will help you to be able to maximize your results and earn money at home as well.

If you are selling information and your website is about how to save money on weddings, people may believe you. However, if thirty people also say that your website is about that topic or even one hundred people, Google will think, “This website must be about that topic.” Google is even more likely to believe that when it visits your webpage and sees titles and content about saving money on weddings throughout the website.

Utilizing this strategy allows you to get high rankings for a number of keywords and phrases instead of one. Why? Articles get ranked in the search engines and they point back to your webpage. Using articles is like having a number of sales professionals promoting your products and services for a number of keywords and phrases. With this strategy you will have a number of people find your website. You also do not have to worry about the competition that comes with smaller keywords and phrases that are on millions of websites.

By using articles you will be able to dramatically increase the amount of traffic that your website receives. Even better, you will be able to take some of the traffic that your competitors receive. The reason why is because some of your competitors will pick up your articles and use them on their websites. They help you even if they are selling information for your topic also.

What this does in return is give you high search engine rankings, increased traffic to your website and as a result, an easier job at selling information.

“John Smith specializes in performance based coaching for individuals looking to get the most out of their business or life. He is currently offering a personal coaching consultation complementary that you can sign up for on his website.”

(“Personal coaching” is the keyword that would be a link your readers would click on to go to your website as this is one of the words you may want to target for a coaching business.)

After clicking on your website link, the next step is to get the prospect to become a potential coaching client. Most people that start a coaching business provide complementary consulting sessions to give the prospect a taste of what they have to offer. You can do the same and when they sign up for their session, you can also offer any products that you might sell to them.

Once you have some articles to work with, the next step is to submit them to article directories and ezine directories on the web. This is a very effective strategy. The reason why is because it allows you to leverage other websites to get traffic to your site. Website owners post articles written by other people on their website, blog or ezine with a link back to the author. This link is the payment you receive for writing the article because it equates to traffic from the website as well as better positioning in the search engines.

So here is an overview of this strategy in a nutshell. To start a coaching business you provide great article content and allow other website owners to use it. The only requirement is that they have to credit you as the author. This is where the resource box comes in, because it has your name as well as a link back to your website. As you continue to submit articles over the internet, you will have more and more links coming back to your website. For example, if one of your articles is used by 200 websites, that gives you 200 links that are going back to your website.

Keep in mind article marketing is one of the best strategies for you to use to generate potential clients for your business. It does this through exposure as well as through helping your search engine positioning. As a result, you should be able to attract new clients as you start a coaching business.
