Article Pack Topic: More Advertising & Traffic

This is the first place you should go if you are just getting started.

Article #14: Blog Advertising
"...Okay, let me start off by saying that blogs by themselves are not really advertising. You need to combine them with some other form to make them effective. But blogs as a tool to get people to either another site, or just to buy something right there and then, are excellent resources.

I made my first blog about 10 years ago before the word blog was even in the dictionary. It was my own personal online diary. I had no intentions of making it known to the outside world. I just put it up to say, hey, I have a site on the Internet...."

Article #15: Buying Leads
"...This could very well be the shortest article you ever read if I simply just said...

NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, BUY LEADS!!!!!

But I think you deserve better than that, so at the very least I should explain why you should never buy leads...."

Article #16: Classified Ads
"...In this installment of our Internet marketing series of articles, I'm going to briefly go over classified ads.

Classified ads get a bad rap. Don't get me wrong, they're not the best way to advertise on the Internet, but if used correctly, they can actually bring some decent results. The key is to know where to advertise and WHAT to advertise..."

Article #17: E-Zine Advertising
"...E-zines are dead. Long live E-zines.

Okay, maybe that's an exaggeration, but e-zine advertising isn't what it was in the good old days of marketing when e-zines had massive lists of people who actually got their emails when they were sent.

And therein lies the problem. But first, for those who don't know what an e-zine is, a brief description. ..."

Article #18: FFA Hosting
"...Back in the early days of MY SECRET PROGRAM when the primary method of advertising was using traffic exchanges, there was one section called FFA Hosting. I remember the first FFA site I joined was Monster Traffic. Here it is 4 years later and I'm still a member of Monster Traffic. But I didn't stop there. Since joining Monster Traffic I have joined a number of other FFA sites. While FFA hosting isn't as effective as it was in the good old days, it is still a viable form of promotion which brings me a sizable check each month...."

Article #19: FFA Posting
"...If you read the section on FFA Hosting, then you already know how bad FFA Posting is. If not, read the section on FFA Hosting.

Read it? Good.

Guess what?

FFA Posting isn't all that bad, not anymore.

Okay, if you think I've lost my mind, I haven't. Yes, I know what I just said in the previous section. The majority of FFA posters think that the ads that they are going to post are going to be read. Well, a lot has happened in 6 years. The average marketer isn't quite as uninformed as they were. This is part of the reason for the 70% drop in FFA Hosting response...."

Article #20: Forums For Advertising???
"...Well, yes and no. This is probably the greatest form of non advertising, advertising that you will ever find. If that sounds like a lot of double talk, it's not. Forums, especially the very popular ones, can bring you more sales, if done right, than any other form of advertising on the Internet. But you have to be patient because this isn't something that you can just dive right into...."

Article #21: Joint Ventures & Freebies
"...Let me start off by saying, this is the best and the worst thing that you can do. If you're first starting out and don't even have your own product, there is very little chance that you can even attempt this. Anybody who is anybody isn't even going to listen to anything you have to say until you have something substantial to offer them.

On the other side of the coin, if you DO have something substantial to offer, you're going to get joint venture offers coming to you out of the woodwork. You're going to be tempted to take on a lot of them....."
