Solo Ad List

Hi Folks

Here's a little solo ad result list that I put together.

Please remember that results will vary and also the results also reflect
your ad copy and especially your subject line. Any newbies I strongly
recommend that you do some research on creating headlines.

Before spending money on solo ads it's a good idea to first test your ads
for best results. Also I recommend that you track all your ads for
best cost effectiveness.

Good Luck !

Solo Ad List



1. Dave Valleries Solo Ad Results!!!!

Solo Ad
Price: $695 

Contact: Dave Vallieres 

http://www.thinkandsucceed.com 

Results: 2906 Clicks 

the most successful and
the most cost effective
Dave has a hugely responsive list .

If you ever get a chance to do a solo ad in Dave's
Ezine do it. 

The only way to advertise on Daves list is to get on his list and
wait for him to let you advertise.

2. Boaze advertising Solo Ad to 200K?? Results

Price: $47

Contact: Admin
link not worth providing
Results: 43 Clicks

This publication boasted 200k subsribers.

This ad only got 43 clicks

Not professional or honest 

3. Traffic Swarm Ad

Traffic Swarm Traffic Exchange Ad Test

Price: $0.00

Contact: N/A

http://www.trafficswarm.com 
Traffic swarm is a traffic exchange program, probably
the premier traffic exchange program on the net

In traffic exchange programs you can expect to
generate quite a few site views for few leads, why?

Because everyone is trying to promote their stuff, not
buy stuff. So you have a lot of people coming to your
ad just to get exchange credits for their own
ad exposure.

4. Arca Max Weekly Free Deals Solo (508K)

A solo ad sent out to 508,000
newsletter subscribers who get a weekly email
for "Free Deals" the cost of the ad was $399

http://www.arcamax.com 
1112 Clicks
12 Sales so far

highly recommend 

5. Dotcommommies.com

Solo Ad
Cost: $200

284 Clicks
109 Leads
5 Sales

http://www.dotcommommies.com 
A strong place for advertisement and one that I would
recommend 

.

6. MyWizardAds Solo Ad

Cost: $120 spread out amongst 6 different
newsletters.

99 Clicks
27 Leads
2 sales

http://www.mywizardads.com
Not something I would
recommend you use right off the bat. 

7. Instant Buzz Free Search Bar Ad

http://www.instantbuzz.com
No cost:

720 clicks
101 leads
3 sales

Worth setting up a free account. 

8. ProBizTips 2 Solo Ad Run
Cost: $350

http://www.probiztips.com 
a strong spot I would
recommend. 

9. PC Quickie Solo Ad 

Cost: $300

1354 Clicks
13 leads
0 Sales

Not worth giving you the link

10. Web Pro Times Solo Ad

Cost: $247

1143 Clicks
43 Leads
1 Sale

Not worth it. 

11. DEMC Solo Ad Test

This solo ad went out to a circulation of
40,000 subscribers and cost was $400.

 http://www.demc.com 

Results:

This ad resulted in 618 unique clicks and 297
lead for a lead conversion of 48% and a lead
cost of $1.34 per lead, but it gets better.
This ad netted 30 sales, for more than 10%
conversion rate lead to sale. Clearly
profitable and a highly recommended ad spot
for any online business related promotion.

12. EzineQueen Classified Ad Test.

This classified ad was placed in 4 different
newsletter editions that went out to a 30,000
subscriber base at a cost of $500.

Website: http://www.ezinequeen.com 
I would not recommend this ad spot to a
newbie, but certainly I would recommend it to
a more advance marketer who has ample cash
flow to wait for their ad placements to run
bringing them into a cash positive state.

13. Online-Exchange Solo Ad Test

This solo ad was at a cost of $50 and went
out to a subscriber base of 15,000.

Website: http://www.online-exchange.com 
 I highly doubt that the list is 15,000 people and if it is,
it's extremely old and heavily marketed to.

I would pass on this one.

14. PowerHomeBiz.com Text Link

PowerHomeBiz.com is one of the most highly
trafficked website in the home business arena
and has several types of advertisements
available. 

I chose for this test a 3 month text link at
$900.

Website: http://www.powerhomebiz.com 
Results:

3967 unique visitors and 1007 leads for a
lead conversion rate of 26.99% and so far
 20 sales with one month to go with
this run. 

I wouldn't suggest this type or size of an ad
to someone without a monthly advertising
budget of several thousand dollars. If you've
got the money to test I give this one a
thumbs up because the number of leads is so
high that there are several opportunities for
recouping ad cost through multiple sales or
affiliate product sales.





Good luck with your solo ads !

Welcome

Success With Internet Marketing

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Internet Marketing  Success For You

A popular business that is growing every day is the Internet Marketing business. Some of the advantages of this business model is that you can work at home, work in your spare time and it does not require a large capital investment. The potential to make a steady income is realistic.. thousands of small work at home operations are making 7 figure incomes world wide.

 

But Internet marketing has a dark side. Some of the dark side of Internet marketing is all the exaggerated hype that is all over the web. It goes something like this: Buy this for $29 and you will become wealthy beyond your wildest dreams. Of course there is no such  thing as getting rich quick.

 

Another dark side of Internet Marketing is that 95% of Internet marketers fail to make any money at all. And the Internet is notorious for being like a sea full of sharks.

 

To get past the dark side of Internet Marketing and become successful simply do the

following:

 

  • Don’t believe all the hype
  • Become the 5% that are successful
  • And watch out for the sharks

If you want to be in the top 5% who succeed then click here

 

Methods for making money online

There are many ways to make money on the internet. Some of the ways are:

 

  • Affiliate marketing
  • Building Adsense Sites
  • Selling physical products
  • Creating digital products to sell
  • Email marketing
  • Selling on Ebay
  • CPA marketing
  • Networking
  • Cash Gifting

 

There are many more ways to make money on the internet and any method you choose can be started very easily. While starting an internet business can be very easy to start, making money fast is the hard part for most.

I have been in Internet Marketing for a few years now and I have made money in affiliate marketing. If you want to make money with internet marketing then you must be proficient with two very important skills to succeed.

 

  1. Keyword research
  2. Driving traffic to web sites

 

When you are starting out concentrate your learning on keyword research and driving traffic to your web site. It does not matter what method  to make money you choose you need these two skills to promote anything.

 

Why Keyword Research

 

To be successful keyword research is a skill that you must be proficient in. When you understand and know how to do keyword research for your business, then you will be able to :

 

  • Identify what people want to buy
  • Identify what keywords to put in your website to get visitors
  • Identify what keywords to use to target your ideal customer

 

If you do not do keyword research with your Internet Marketing campaigns then you have failed already,  you will not make any money online.

 

Driving traffic

Driving traffic is also a skill that you must have to be successful. It does not matter what money making method you decide to use.

 

You need to get traffic to your site. There is no getting around that.

No traffic to website = no conversions        no conversions = no money

 

Look, you might of heard of this popular equation before. I’m going to write it down to remind you if you already know it and educate you if you do not know.

 

To make money on the internet you need to follow this equation:

targeted traffic + website conversions = money in your account

This equation will make you money if you follow it.

Let’s face it, driving traffic is what all successful internet marketers do. There is simply no getting around it. If you drive targeted traffic to your website the conversions will come. But before you have any chance of getting any sales (conversions) first you need the traffic. And the more targeted traffic that you are able to get to your web site then the better conversions your site will produce.

 

Don’t get bogged down with trying to learn everything there is to know about internet marketing.

  • Learn how to do keyword research
  • Learn how to drive traffic to your website
  • Pick a method to make money

(I recommend that you start out with putting up ad sense sites or affiliate marketing)

  • Use your knowledge to start driving traffic to your money site

 

 

Best Regards

How To Start And Configure Your WordPress Blog

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How to start your awesome Wordpress  Blog

If you are not a whiz at using FTP software to upload your WordPress blog to your server and if you don’t know what I am talking about, then read how you can easily get your WordPress blog up and running in no time at all without knowing all that tech stuff.

 

  • First register your domain name at Godaddy.com

  • Then get your hosting at Hostgater.com

You can use a different hosting provider if you prefer but when choosing a hosting provider make sure it has Linex.  Don’t ask me why just trust me. :-)

 

  • Next point your name servers to your hosting provider.

 

How to do this can be found in Godaddy. Godaddy is very good at explaining how to do things. You can even call Godaddy to have a live person talk you through it. It’s a great service.

 

After you have your domain name,  hosting provider and you have your domain name pointing to your hosting provider , you are now ready to install your wordpress blog to your hosting  and get it live on the internet.

 

Installing WordPress to your Hosting Provider

 

  • Login to your Hosting providers Cpanel
  • Find the Fantastico Icon
  • Click on Fantastico
  • Look for and click the WordPress  installation
  • Fantastico will install WordPress to your hosting for you
  • Congratulations  !  Your blog is live on the Internet

 

How to Configure your WordPress blog

 

After using  Fantastico  to install your WordPress blog on your hosting provider , you need to configure your blog to make it search engine friendly.

 

In your WordPress dash board do the following:

 

1. Activate the Akismet plug in to block spam post.

 

To do so you have to get your Api key number by signing up for an account at WordPress.com After you get your Api key number be sure and save it in a notepad, you might need it in the future.

 

2. Clear your blog roll links that comes with WordPress.

They all link to WordPress so you don’t need them unless your blog is about blogging.

 

3. Set up your profile.

 

4.  Set up your perma links. Delet the default perma link, copy and paste this perma link struture  with no spaces:

/%postname%.html

It’s to help with the search engines.

 

5. In your WordPress dash board delete the default ping address  then copy and past your ping list.

You can find the ping list  by doing a Google seach for WordPress ping list. Delete the default ping address
.

 

6. In the general tab enter www. in-front of your URL.

Again to help with search engines.

 

After doing all that you will be ready to choose your free theme for your WordPress blog.

Later you can change your theme for a better looking paid theme if you want to.

 

After you do these steps your good to go to start posting awesome articles in your blog to attract the people that you need to grow your business.

 

Be sure to look at different WordPress plug- ins for your blog. There are many to choose from. I recommend that you use All in one SEO plug in to help you optimize your blog for seo. You can find more plug-ins for your WordPress  blog here .

After you get your blog up and you are posting articles you should do some research as you go along to learn how to improve your blogging experience and get better at it to get the results that you need.

 

 

Good Luck  and have fun with your new WordPress blog
