If you are into marketing on the Internet, you will be marketing a website of one kind or another. Maybe you own the URL of that web site or youre promoting a generic link which contains your affiliate code.

Whichever scheme you operate, the problem is the same: how to get enough interested visitors to you website, so that, if they are interested in your product, you have a chance to sell it to them, if they can afford it, before they become so distracted that they click away.

This is the biggest common problem that every single marketer faces, and it is called attracting targeted traffic, getting relevant visitors or something very similar. All the phrases mean the same ultimately. If no one can see your product they cannot buy it or if your visitors are mainly young people interested in football, it is no good trying to sell them knitting needles.

Therefore, you obviously need as many visitors interested in your product, as you can handle. Which means that you need to be highly ranked in the search engines and directories so that people can find your site. The biggest and most often-used search engine is Google. So, how do you become highly ranked in Google?

There are several thousand books on the subject, but practically without exception the serious ones come to the same conclusion, unless they were written by self-interested safe-list or traffic exchange owners. And that conclusion is that you need lots and lots of links to your site.

Very few people will honestly admit to knowing how Google ranks sites, but most people agree that the more sites linking to your site the better. This has lead some webmasters to try exchanging links with each other. It sounds an easy way to get links but Google can recognize reciprocal links. The best links are one-way links, because it demonstrates that someone values your site enough to want to be associated with it. These are called back links.

Therefore, the real problem is how to get enough back links to your site to persuade Google (and the others) that you run an important enough site to rank it highly for your chosen keywords, which should be relevant to the content of your site. How do you do that?

There are many strategies you can employ such as traffic exchanges, safelists, FFAs, forums and writing articles, but to be blunt, the first three of these are a total waste of time. I used to own a safelist and have wasted thousands of hours on traffic exchanges, all for nothing. Posting to forums can be worthwhile, but then ONLY if the link on your post is a follow link. If it is not, it doesnt do any good and most are no follow links. This means that you have to do some research to find the forums where it is worth you posting to (more on this later). That leaves writing articles as the ONLY sure way to get rock-solid back-links to your site based on relevant keywords.

So, you write an article on a subject relevant to your site stuffed (but not over-stuffed) with relevant keywords but then what do you do next? Thats easy! You search Google for article directories, lists and blogs; sign up to a couple of dozen of the relevant ones; find the relevant categories and post your article to them.

And that is the definitive method of getting the sort of links you need to get your site highly ranked, so that people can find you and have a chance to buy what you are selling. The only catch is that Google will expect to see new links appearing on the Internet on a regular basis, which means writing and posting time after time after time after time ad infinitum. Or does it?

Yes, it does, unfortunately. But the process can be automated and automation is the key to online marketing success. Set up a proven, successful process and let it run ” day and night: all day and all night! I use a system that helps turn an article into thousands of variations and posts them to thousands of search engines, directories, lists and websites, creating literally thousands of back-links!

But do not think that these variations are spun! (The industry standard way of creating variations is to use spinning software to substitute synonyms and pseudo-synonyms eg yellowish for yellow in a random way. This works to a certain degree but can produce gibberish too). The system I use does not employ this method, but still produces thousands or variants all written by human hand. Then it sends them to article directories and blogs etc.. Thousands of them. In fact today, there are over 11,000 sites on their list and the list is kept fresh on a monthly basis. Most similar lists are not well maintained because it is so time-consuming. Therefore many contain lots of dead links.

This system will take your article, create thousands of variations and then post them to thousands of sites. All with your sites link in the by-line, which you can also vary. But not only that! It only posts your article to sites that want sites like yours (based on your chosen keywords) and posts according to a schedule chosen by you: ie 10, 20, 50, 100, 1,000 posts a day, starting on any future date you may choose! So you could write say, three articles and have the first one go out starting the next day at 150 a day; the second one starting after seven days at 150 sites a day; and the third starting after two weeks at a rate of 75 sites a day.

That would give your site at least 3,000 links in a month or 100 a day ” all for 2-3 hours work! If you wrote one article a day (an hours work) and it got posted to only 1,000 relevant sites, you would have 30,000 relevant links in a month. And that does not include the bloggers, ezine publishers and webmasters who paste your article into their publication with your link. You could easily end up with 40-50k links. But it doesnt even stop there, because the article will be live for years and years, quietly beavering away at getting you noticed by the search engines and the people searching them. How many sales could that get you?

If you are trying to make money online, then you will need to promote a website, whether you own the URL of that site or whether it is an affiliate link is not important

Whether you own the site or not, the problem remains the same – how do you get enough interested visitors to your site, so that, if they like your product and can afford it, they will have a chance to buy it, before they get bored and move on.

This is the most important problem that faces every single Internet marketer and it is called attracting targeted traffic, getting relevant visitors or something similar. It all comes to the same thing ultimately. If no one can see your product, they cannot buy it or if your visitors are mainly young people interested in swimming, it is no good trying to sell them parachutes.

So, obviously you need as many visitors to your website, who are interested in your product, as you can handle.

We have seen new business opportunities grow in recently-invented sectors of activity with the development of ecommerce. So, how do people make money on the Internet? Well, it does not matter whether we are talking about businesses selling products or services, the question of whether an Internet business is working out or not is best measured by sales.

The extreme competition has forced small and large companies alike to adopt all manner of strategies to become or remain visible and profitable online. However, because the ways of achieving these goals are highly complex, a new kind of business has come about: the Internet marketing business. Who are these people and how can they help with business promotion? First of all, most people do not have any marketing knowledge and understand very little about the methods used to promote a business, create a campaign and support a product or service at the top of a search engine listing.

Internet marketing businesses are usually teams of people with proper professional marketing training that have made a job out of studying the motion of the Internet as a mirror of real-life market transactions. The range of services provided by such companies is extensive and comprehensive. Some of them can help you start a business from scratch and build everything you need for online representation, beginning with web page design. What the average service company requires from an Internet marketing business is the creation of advertising campaigns and their monitoring over an extensive period of time.

The goal of these campaigns is the increase of sales and overall company profitability. However, there are different types of services that Internet marketing businesses can implement, depending on the requirements of the client. Therefore, you can choose between search engine marketing, keyword marketing, web site marketing strategies, sales leads, sales lead management et cetera.

It can get even more specific too; there can be further targeted objectives. Thus, some companies need to convert visitors into leads, others want to improve their search engine ranking and small businesses often require local or regional promotion and so on.

And last but not at all least, Internet marketing businesses are usually a very good source of advice for the more knowledgeable website developers, who manage the optimization of a suite of their own sites themselves, but who still need advice on strategies, tactics and advertising techniques.

A good example is the choice of the software necessary to optimize a web site and monitor it constantly, improving the activity and increasing the company’s profitability. What is the criteria for recognizing a valuable piece of software? Well, it is not easy, but good software is usually fairly expensive, but it need not be overly so. It should automate quite a lot of the processes required and it has to produce readily understandable reports that you can act on.
