Unfortunately the video is a bit wide to embed in my theme so you will have to look at it directly over at SlateTV.

Imagine if you really took your time to target your ads and give them a nice free offer. This could really do wonders for ANY business!! AMAZING

The first ten days of the challenge have been pretty fundamental. We have covered

Market Research

Here we used a tool called market samurai. this tool makes it exceptionally easy to research keywords, determine seo competition as well as investigate possible response to your chosen keywords and cost of those same keywords if using Adwords. Excellent stuff!!

Content Development

We also learnt how to find content relevent to our niche and how to take that found content and use it to develop content so that it is uniquely yours. We also found ways to stay abreast with all information relevent to your choice niche using google reader as well as google alerts.

One thing I particular liked was the video on writing your very own copy. I have always had a problem with this and I can now confidently say that I have a fairly good understanding of what is needed to make a good copy.

Simple Site Promotion

Another key aspect we have looked at thus far, is site promotion. The techniques used here will get you quickly indexed by search engines that will in turn bring in the necessary traffic to your blog. We must remember that without traffic we can’t make any money so this was very important to pay attention to.

Face it folks the 30DC is the place to be! I haven’t even scratched the surface as to all of the intircacies of the FREE education I am receiving here. I really recommend anyone interested in making money online to have a go at it. It’s not too late,  10 days is nothing to catch up on once you’re willing to set aside a few hours to go through the tutorials.

Well that’s it for now, I hope to see you at the thirty day challenge today on day 11.

This week’s entrepreneur is Carl Ocab of carlocab.com. Carl is a 14 year old BOY from the Philippines. His major claim to fame is ranking number one in google for the keyphrase “make money online”. When I checked it he currently ranks fourth which is still far beyond anything I have accomplished.

Carl is really doing it big and still going to school. He blogs regularly after school and writes with great authority on his topics, much better than many of the make money online blogs run by adults I’ve come across. I think one of the things Carl has going for him is his family’s support. Many of his posts introductory make reference to his father who he says is a marketer himself.

Carl also has a free ebook called the kidblogger’s master plan, that he uses to make money online and replicates any number of times in different niches. Yes people he is 14 years old, and he started at 13. If this doesn’t motivate you to work harder I really think you should call it quits now. Check out Carl’s blog and read his posts he has some solid advice there and I would recommend subscribing to his blog and getting the free ebook.

Businesses

Neil Patel is an internet marketer who is co-founder of ACS the consulting firm which does Internet Marketing, Business Consultancy and Creative consultancy for businesses such as HP, Samsung, and TechCrunch to name a few.

CrazyEgg is an online web analytics application that offers a number of features for webmasters to see how their sites are performing. Users can create tests to figure out what people are doing on your website; view a heatmap which tells you what’s hot and what’s not, on your website and many more interesting concepts to help analyze the performance of your website extensively.

Time to spare

Amazingly enough, after running these two companies and going to school he still has time for a personal blog called Quick Sprout which gives good internet marketing tips on things like building your own brand. I’ve already added quick sprout to my RSS reader and I would advise others to do the same. I also recommend using Crazy Egg services, the free account is pretty extensive and can work for most of us still under 5000 visitors monthly.

Livin’ large

You’d be keen to realise that Neil is sporting the elitist invite only American Express black card in the photo above. In this blog post he mentions receiving the card as a gift from being on the board of advisors for the company known as Affiliate Programs. Just to keep the card Neil has to have minimum charges of $250,000 a year! If this isn’t large living I don’t know what is.

5. The call of the entrepreneur

Last is this very nice video, that is really, really inspiring. It shows a bunch of established entrepreneurs and describes their importance and effect on society. Best way to describe it is touching.

Well that’s it for today. These are my blog recommendations, hope you enjoyed the post and thanks for reading.

When deciding on starting a business and choosing a particular niche, I think it is extremely important to look at businesses (successful or otherwise) that are currently operating in that particular niche and follow the model used but observe what can be done differently by you to improve it and provide a better service to your clients.

Digg.com

There really is nothing exceptional or outstandingly genius about the digg concept. Digg.com was initially a technology news website where the users submitted links to news stories. This already existed at Slashdot.com which was very successful at the time. What users of Slashdot.com were silently unhappy about was the fact that the site editors had the final say as to what would be shown on the website out of the submitted material of its users. So essentially what Kevin Rose did was give the social networking news site a twist by placing the power in the hands of its users.

Good ole Walmart

Everyone knows Walmart, the huge multinational chain of discount variety stores. The founder Sam Walton had worked in variety stores previously, like J.C. Penny prior to going into business for himself. How did Mr Walton add new tyres to the wheel? Well his concept was to mark up less than his competitors and take less profit per item but achieve higher sales per volume to make up the difference. I think it’s safe to say that these tyres are doing well on the original wheels of the old variety store.

Strangely enough while writing this post Yaro Starak from Entrepreneurs Journey wrote a post as well saying sometimes you have to re-invent the wheel. It’s an excellent article, very extensive and filled with advice. At the end of it all I think we’re saying the same thing where you have to do things differently to some degree. I call it new tyres, but he calls it reinvention.

Well that’s it; I hope you have enjoyed my post. Thanks for reading.

Improve Landing Page Performance With Page Relevancy

The landing page is one of, if not the most important aspects of an advertising campaign but it is one that is often overlooked. Upon embarking on an SEO, PPC, or any other type of campaign it is easy to get caught up in bid prices, link building, and optimizing the ad itself. However, if the landing page doesn’t perform then all of that work is next to useless. A landing page must convert visitors into customers.

What Is Landing Page Relevancy?

While there are several factors in optimizing a landing page for performance, page relevancy is one of the more important. The landing page is the link between your ad and the purchase, click, or signup that you crave. It needs to effectively and naturally ensure that visitors progress from being interested to being completely sold and ready to take the next (usually final) step in the process.

Linking Your Ad To Your Action

Landing page relevancy, then, means that all of the content elements on your landing page need to be relevant to your website and your product or service. It also needs to prove relevant to the actual advertisement or other marketing technique that you employed. It needs to be carefully planned and written in such a way that your visitors will not only want to complete the desired action, but feel they need to.

Remember That Visitors Are Real People With Real Needs

Consider the way your visitors found your site – your actual advert. For SEO and PPC this means looking at the keywords that led visitors to your page. Think about the individual people that found your ad and what they were looking for when they conducted their search and clicked on your link. Are they looking for more information or are they looking to complete the purchase of your product straight away?

Keyword Prominence

Include the relevant keywords in a prominent position on your page. It helps to direct the mind of your visitors and ensures that they know they are in the right place. Structure your landing page so it contains a good number of the keywords that are most important to these visitors without being guilty of keyword cramming.

All Advertising Demands Landing Page Relevancy

Other methods of advertising, such as banner advertisements and article marketing, still allow a good degree of visitor analysis and page relevancy. Any form of advertising means that you know the content of your ad, or article. This allows you to inject relevancy into the resulting page and improve the performance of that page to give you better conversions, greater profits, and an improved advertising ROI.

As well as offering a full SEO copywriting service, WebWiseWords is also a provider of high quality web site content that converts and performs. See how the WebWiseWords service can help you today.
