The Key Ingredients for Internet Success
The Internet has opened a whole New World of opportunity
for even the smallest home-based business owner. There
are countless numbers of new self-made millionaires that
achieved their newfound success on the Internet. These
new millionaires are no different from you and I. They started
their Internet businesses from the ground up, found a niche
and built their success one day at a time.
“Can I really make money on the Internet?” The fact of the
matter is that you really can make money on the Internet --
a lot of money. You simply must take the necessary steps to
make it happen. You must have a sincere desire to succeed
and the attitude for success.
If you are sincerely passionate about your success, you will
succeed -- it's that simple.
The true secret to creating a successful Internet business,
is pure determination. Most people fail just at the moment
they are about to succeed. Why? -- Because they give up.
They lack the true passion that it takes to succeed. As
long as you keep trying, you'll never fail.
Below, is list of what I feel are the most important
ingredients for Internet success:
Sincere Passion
In order to be successful, you must be completely
passionate about your business and your success. If you
don't have a "sincere" passion, you won't have the
necessary personal drive that it takes to succeed.
Your Own Domain (www.yourdomain.com)
Businesses hosted on a free server are not taken seriously
and are generally considered to be unprofessional. If a
company doesn't care enough about its business to get its
own domain name, potential customers may not feel
comfortable doing business with them. A company with its
own domain name and a professional looking website will
have a much higher rate of success when compared with
most business sites hosted on free servers.
Professional Website
Your website is a direct reflection of you and your business.
Creating a professional website designed to sell will take a
great deal of time and effort, as there is much more to take
into consideration than design. You must look at a much
broader picture and specifically design your website to sell.
Quality Content
In order to create a steady stream of traffic to your website,
you must give your visitors a reason to visit and continue to
visit in the future. You must provide your visitors with fresh
content on a continual basis.
Targeted Traffic
No matter how great your website is, unless you're receiving
quality, targeted traffic, it will be useless. Your website may
receive hundreds of visitors each day. However, if they
aren't interested in the products or services you're offering,
your web traffic won't mean a thing. You must drive a
continuous stream of targeted traffic to your website.
Opt-in List (Ezine)
Having your own publication is an absolute essential part of
your success. They not only provide you with a direct line
of communication with potential customers and enable you
to promote your products or services, but they also build
credibility.
Your Own In-Demand Product
Although marketing affiliate programs can provide you with
a nice income, true Internet profits come from marketing
your own in-demand product.
Killer Sales Copy
Your words are the entire foundation of your business. Your
product, website and marketing strategies all depend upon
your words. You must learn how to write persuasive words
specifically written for your targeted customer. You must
feel your customers needs and write your copy with passion,
excitement and benefit.
Killer Marketing Strategy
Developing a successful marketing strategy is an essential
part of your online success. In order to succeed, you must
develop and implement a strategic plan that includes all of
the following:
- A great product
- A website specifically designed to sell
- A killer marketing strategy
Each step plays an important role in your overall strategy and
must be developed to its fullest potential. If even one step
fails, your chances of success will be minimal.
Instant Product Delivery (downloadable, instant access, etc.)
Internet users are starving for information, as that is what
the Internet is all about. They have a sincere desire to learn
and want the information they desire right now.
The best products to sell on the Internet are those that can
be instantly delivered over the Internet.
Accept Credit Cards
If you're doing business on the Internet, accepting credit
cards is an absolute must. You must provide your visitors
with an easy online ordering process and the ability to pay
for their order right online.
Credibility
As an Internet entrepreneur, it is your personal responsibility
to ensure that your visitors feel very comfortable with you
and your website. In order to gain your visitors' trust and
confidence, you must build your credibility.
Your attitude is the MOST important factor in determining
your success. You MUST think positively and be willing to
tackle any obstacle that comes along. The fact is, you
CAN do whatever you put your mind to. You simply have
to believe you can and believe in yourself above all else.
