Getting to grips with marketing!

It’s now been 6 days since I actually joined the YourNetBiz.com and I have already generated 2 opt-in leads from Google Adwords.

I’m very much a crawl-walk-run person but sometimes get all three going together at the same time. With YNB I have been able to do this as I have some technical knowledge but I am still learning a lot in other areas.

I’m busy expanding my reach by delving into other areas of marketing and below is where I’ve gotten to:

As soon as I had signed up to YNB I immediately jumped onto my Google Adwords account and created an advert to direct some traffic to one of the 3 domains I created. www.makemegamoola.com The ad read “Make Money Online” and I used the forwarding with Masking option to ensure that google would allow it as it actually forwards to my YNB Landing page. I played around with a few permatations of the advert but none of them resulted in an opt-in lead.

I change the ad to one of the ones provided by MIB and used another domain name I registered www.your-mega-bucks.com. This forwards to exactly the same landing page and has resulted in 2 opt-in leads within 3 days. The keywords stayed exactly the same, the impressions grew at the same rate as the previous ad but the 2 opt-ins resulted. Now this could have been purely due to the fact that it was changed in time for my opt-ins to see it but in the short amount of time since I changed the ad I saw a change in results. Longer term experimentation will be the decider but I feel good about what I have done.

I have recently joined Twitter and trying to grow my following. Reading an very good ebook Underground Twitter Secret Manifesto has opened my eyes to the possibilities this social networking site has and I hope to exploit them to the fullest. There is a lot of good content in this ebook and well worth the read if you’re an online marketing person no matter what your level of competence.

I will be looking at exploiting the Facebook social networking site as this site has one of the largest foloowing in the internet and it was recently published that 1 in 8 minutes spent on the internet is spent surfing Facebook. As I get the MIB part of Facebook setup so I’ll update this blog with the links to that page. Coma back here in the future to see where I go with this.

The above is some examples of me running with things as I’m wanting to generate as much traffic to my capture pages as possible and hopefully convert a good percentage of these into actual sales but the area where I’m still learning to crawl is in the running of this machine that MIB is and all of the back office components that make it such a good product.

The group that I have decided to associate with, The Jerimiah 2911 as they offer a very good mentoring and support team and with 4 nights a week training that you won’t get anywhere else it’s the only choice for somebody starting out in this business.

I’ll definitely be reviewing this posting but please also look out for new posts as I will be keeping this site up to date.
