Online MLM Success-How To Use Blogs To Explode Your List!

If you want to build your MLM online then you need a list!

There are a number of ways to get a list and in my opinion we need to be making use of them all.

You can try:

Pay-per-click, Article Writing, Website SEO, Email, Chat Room Postings and Blogs etc.

Today, let's talk about "Blogging"… how will this help you with your list?

Many of the blogs, especially Blogger.com (powered by Google) carry high rankings in the search engines, and they are better candidates for getting good links than just picking any old web site out there.

What's the process to make a blog work?

What I do first is to write a lot of articles and post them to my blog at the same time as I'm posting to my Article Directories. Don't forget to attach your Resource Box or your visitors won't have a way to contact you.

The Search Engine spiders like to see lots of new content to make them happy with your site. They want your visitors to have a rewarding experience when they visit.

With enough articles posted on your blog the search engines will begin to bring you traffic.

The advantage of blogging is that there are no rules to comply with like the Article Directories so you can just make a 100 word post for a quick comment on something that strikes you, if you want.

If you Google "Blog Online MLM Success" without the quotes you'll find my blog if you want to have a look at what I do.

The next thing you want is to attract links from other bloggers. The spiders love inbound links too… but I must tell you I've not really done this aggressively… I tend to rely on the Article Directories for my traffic.

There are a number of ways to get links from blog masters at other blogs.

One way to do it is to simply write the blogs and ask them if they will link to your blog or squeeze page, in exchange for you linking to their blog. If you want traffic to your squeeze page you can set up a page on your web site where you link to other blogs, and put a link to their blog on that page. And remember… if you have your Resource Box on your Blog some of your visitors will visit your squeeze page anyway.

Or you can do this:

Respond to blog posts. Many bloggers will ask their visitors questions, and if you are much like me, usually you simply read other people's responses - but fail to leave one of your own.

However, in many cases, the bloggers will give you a live link to your web site if you will post a response.

Here's what you can do. Check to see that the other blog posts include live links to the posters' web site - then if they do, you can enter comment.

One of the real keys here is that it needs to be relevant, so make sure you are posting to blogs in your niche… you don't want to be a spammer.

Explode Your MLM Online--The Wave Of The Future--Don't Be Left Behind!

MySpace, Friendster, Facebook , U-tube…the wave of the future is social networking! It's taking over the traditional methods of web marketing and if you're not in the game you'll be left behind.

In the print space MySpace, Friendster, and Facebook are the front runners with MySpace way out in the lead. But friends tell me that Facebook is fast catching up.

And then we move on to U-Tube and that's another game altogether. Video is here and it's now easy and U-Tube is a presence all on its own and deserves a whole book so I won't try to cover it here. But it's fast carving a presence that we won't be able to ignore.

Personally I still rely heavily on article writing and publishing to generate visitors interested in my topic, but I'm branching out into these networking arenas.

Click my link below if you want to know how article writing can explode your business.

Social networking sites are still quite new and are a great place to promote your business but you need to do it in a professional way… after all, these sites are primarily about connecting with people and posting your profile, not for aggressively advertising your business via unsolicited messaging.

Lots of social network users are becoming wary of the practices of unscrupulous online business promotion, viewing it as the ultimate form of spam. They feel that the sanctity of their space is being invaded, just the way email has been.

If we want to make use of these sites to promote our own businesses then we need to find a way to get past this attitude. Acting responsibly is the answer.

Here are three things you can do:

1. Get Referrals:

Look for friends using these sites and ask them to refer you to their friends. If you come in via this door then you are much more welcome that if you bash the door down with spam.

2. Be willing to Go Slow:

Take your time. Gently ease yourself into the community, just like you would at a party where you are the stranger.

3. Put your best face on your Site:

Just like you would if you were showing up for a job interview… you'd dress appropriately and wear your best clothes.

Put a good quality picture on your profile. Nothing screams amateur like a poor quality, washed out, out of focus photo of you in your grungy clothes. If you can afford a professional shot then get one taken.

And do the best possible job you can on your template and layout presentation. The sites will offer some professional templates and if you can't afford a professional to set it up for you then take the time to learn how to do it yourself.

You will need more than the standard profile page if you hope to grab attention.

And don't overdo your business introduction.

4. Visit other people's sites and leave a greeting:

Connect with people with similar niches to yours and get yourself known… swap links by leaving comments on their sites and invite them to visit yours. Try to find groups that could become customers down the road.
Send them personal messages, thanking them for accepting you. Take note of their birthdays and send them birthday greetings… we all love to be recognized on our birthdays. Set up a tickler file to help you stay current with this. And just visit with them for the hell of it… you'll make a friend and somewhere down the line the business will flow.

This is pretty similar to the way you can establish your presence in Blogging or Chat sites. Over time you'll make your presence felt.

Once you attract an audience to your social networking site you will still need to get them onto your list. I can show you how to make that happen.

Build Your MLM Online--4 Surefire Ways to Grow Your List!

Your list is the backbone of your business… no list, no business! To build a list you need traffic… visitors to your website who subscribe to your list.

Traffic makes the Internet world go around!

To get traffic your visitors first need to find you in some way. When they find you there needs to be an opt-in box on your webpage that will allow them to subscribe and an autoresponder that will organize these respondents in to a list you can phone or email.

A high ranking on the search engines is one way to do this. If your listing shows in the first three pages of a Google search, then this is prime real estate… you have arrived. You will almost certainly have people clicking your link and visiting your webpage.

Here are some ways you can make this happen:

You can write articles on topics relevant to your business and publish them on article directories.

The article directories have extremely high Search Engine rankings because of the frequency and diversity of their new postings… the spiders love new material and lots of pages on a site.

You effectively get to ride on their back. I have had sites indexed in less that one day with only two articles posted on one directory. This is an amazingly powerful tool for getting traffic.

Why is that?

Because you get to put a resource box at the end of your article with your contact information advertising a free book or report. People who find your book description interesting will elect to subscribe to your list.

The second benefit is that these articles begin to grow exponentially (going viral we call it) as other Ezine publishers post your articles to their sites, complete with your resource box.

You can visit forum sites and make regular posts to appropriate threads.

When you post make sure to attach your resource box at the end of the post. If you become a regular visitor and other forum members find your posts valuable they will begin to click your link for your free material and will subscribe to your newsletter.

Sometimes they will forward your post to other friends and this technique goes viral too.

You may also want to consider exchanging links with some other reputable established sites whose content impresses you.

Back links add to your Search Engine ranking. Just try to make sure that the site you are exchanging links with has something that relates to your own site content.

Start a Blog

Just go to Blogger.com and start your own blog. It takes about five minutes. Post to your blog every day. Remember the spiders love fresh content. Post your articles and business commentaries and some personal information if you like.

Then visit other blogs in a similar space to your own and add comments to their posts. Ask them to visit your blog and post a comment and you have another backlink.

There are many more things you can do to expand you web presence and your prospect list.

I can help you if you would like.

Build Your MLM Online--What You Can Do To Make "MySpace" Work For You!

Would you like to use your MySpace site to promote your MLM.

Do you know how to do it?

Then here's some information that will give you a great platform to get started.

As you know, MySpace is a social networking website… what's being called Web2 these days.

One big advantage of MySpace is that you almost instantly have your own website… for free… and you don't need to know anything about programming on the web.

It's strictly point and press and it's dead simple. This can save you a lot of time and money and have you up and promoting your business on the web in the next hour… it's that easy!

I see MySpace as an add-on… another tool to promote you business and build your list.

With MySpace you can communicate and build relationships around the world, create a blog and air your opinions and use it as a great business promotion tool.

Here are some great ideas to generate more targeted traffic:

a. Make your MySpace site more attractive and enticing. Do what you can to give it a professional look and feel. Use quality photos on your site rather than the low grade disasters you usually see there.

Dedicate your site to your business. Don't fill it with irrelevant ramblings and trivia. You want to create a professional image. Give your visitors very relevant, informative, useful, and dynamic information about the MLM industry in general and your business in particular.

b. Invite your friends and your relatives to come and visit your MySpace site. Make sure you make it open to the public. You want all the traffic you can get.

c. Visit other relevant MySpace sites and other blogs and invite them to visit yours.

It's OK to reach out and make friends. After all, that's what social networking is all about.

Once your MySpace site is up and running you really do need a website of your own dedicated to your business, if you want to really build successfully on the web.

Having your own dedicated website gives you a professional presence online and it's quite easy to do.

Build Your MLM Online-Here's How To Use Email Marketing!

If you want to build your MLM online you are going to need to build your prospect list and then put them on your newsletter e-mailings.

One way to do this is to buy a list of auto-responder names from a list broker and send them a series of emails.

E-mail marketing is regarded as one of the pillars in the marketing arena having been in used for quite some time in thee marketing field and by most businessmen. Its undoubted capacity to generate positive results in the business made it one of the most significant online marketing tools.

However, with the advent of the Internet technology and the modernized ways of sending e-mails that solicit advertisements, many online users have been very cautious about receiving and opening e-mail from people they do not know.

Here are some pointers that will help to make your emails more deliverable:

a. Do not use words such as advertisements, sale, free, extra income, MLM or home business or similar words as your subject line. These are some of the most tracked subject lines that are being blocked by spam blocking programs. This also goes for the body of your e-mail.

b. Always use the standard font size and font color for any e-mail marketing. Never use any font size that is beyond what is professional looking. Do not overly color your e-mail, too, as this looks not so professional. Generally avoid other formatting effects for text, like italics and bold, as this does not convey professional looking e-mail either

c. Avoid putting graphics and animations on your marketing e-mails. Graphics and animated flash files can look professional but an email from a friend is more likely to be in text format. Besides that, since these graphic and animated files are way too big in terms of file size, it slows down the loading time. Your recipient may get frustrated and just close and delete you.

Whatever you can do to automate your MLM business is an added plus. The internet is a great tool and is rejection free.

Online MLM Success - Build your List with Website Visitors - 6 Easy Steps

Do you hate rejection as much as I do?

Then let's do something about avoiding it as we build our MLM business.

The best way I know to do this is to build your list on the internet.

You'll need a website, a landing page with opt-in box attached, an autoresponder and a free product to give away in exchange for people subscribing to your site.

I suggest you begin by writing articles to get your site indexed by the search engines. That's a whole topic in itself. If you click my link below you can download my free book on exactly how to do that.

Once you have your website and your autoresponder set up you need visitors to your site if you want to build your list.

One way to do that is to generates links. How many other websites are linked to you and how much traffic do those links produce for you are things that Google looks at when ranking your site.

When we speak of link popularity, it doesn't only mean linking your website to as many webpages as you can. They need to be targeted, relevant, quality links that produce traffic to your site.

If you want to know more of the basics of building your MLM on the internet then click my link below and get my book "The Perfect Online MLM Business".

Here are some things you can do to generate quality links.

1. Submit your articles to article directories.

Writing informative articles and submitting them to free article directories gives you credibility and creates a back link for your website. All you have to do is to include a link to your webpage in the resource box or transform one of your keywords into a hyperlink.

2. Comment on blogs.

This is free and can really add to your traffic. You'll find lots of great blogs that are relevant to your niche. Drop in once in a while and add interesting and useful comments. Don't forget to include your contact information or resource box so they can get back to you. This will increase your traffic and if your blog is part of Techorati it will be counted as your own backlink.

3. Join forums.

Search for forums that are related to your topic and add a link of your website in the signature file. To further increase traffic get involved in the discussion. You can offer your opinion or you can start your own thread by posting an article.

4. Syndicate your website.

If you have a blog, then better make sure that you're also providing your own XML or RSS feed. When readers believe in your content, they will include your feed into their website. Aside from backlinks, it means an increase in web traffic too.

If you're using Blogger.com to host your blog then it's easy... you just activate Atom Feed in your setup page.

5. Increase your blogroll.

Look for well-established blogs and ask if they will include yours in their blog links. You benefit from their link popularity and traffic. And of course courtresy demands that you add their link to your blog site.

6. Add fresh content daily.

Search engine spiders love fresh, keyword-rich content. The more often you update the more the spiders will visit.

Building on the internet adds a powerful tool to your MLM program.

Secrets Of Online MLM Success--How To Guarantee Your Business Explodes! A Step by Step Plan!

You want your business to explode? But you're afraid to approach your warm list?

So not much is happening? You're not approaching anyone? In fact you're pretty much treading water right now…?

You can certainly use pay-per-click or article marketing to create a stream of prospects to your website… but what if you're not totally computer and internet savvy… what are you going to do then?

Here's what you do… step by step… to create an explosion in your business!

You start leading with the product instead of the opportunity… but there's a trick to this and it takes a bit of lead time.

First you write a book on one of your products and offer it for free on your website! And don't panic! I'll show you a really easy way to do it.

People have an automatic respect for published authors. If you've written a book, people will take you seriously… you surely must be an expert if you're in print. All of a sudden their perceptions about you are changed. They want to read your book… especially if it's free!

Let's say you're in a health and wellness related MLM, which lots of us are.

You find the product in your product line that has the most sex appeal and you write a book on the subject.

Weight loss is big, big, big and you really should be grabbing onto this market if you can. But if you don't have a weight-loss product then go with whatever you've got or join an MLM that has one.

I've written a book called "Lose Weight Never Go Hungry". If you'd like to see what my book looks like, just click my link below and request my MLM book , then shoot me an email and I'll send you a copy.

If none of your products are particularly sexy (I find most people can't really get excited about vitamins for instance and we end up beating a dead horse) then choose a product that is somehow related to "weight loss" or whatever else you can think of to add some excitement to your approach.

Let's go with the weight loss idea for now:

From here you create a sexy story about your product or about this ingredient in your vitamin/mineral line that really helps with weight loss.

Now here's your new approach. You say to anyone you come in contact with, warm or cold market:

"Hey John/Mary, did you know I'm in the weight loss business. I've written a book. It deals with the way that certain vitamins and minerals can really help to make weight loss easier. Everywhere I turn people seem to be looking for an easy way to lose weight. Do you know anyone who might like to lose the craving and drop a few pounds? Tell you what; why don't I email you the URL for my book."

So what can be sexy about vitamins?

Here's one great idea:

5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP)

"Scientists believe that many humans are genetically predisposed to obesity. Brain serotonin levels seem to have a major influence. Serotonin tells us to stop eating after we are full. If we're down on serotonin, our brain does not tell us to stop eating. So we keep right on eating and gain a lot of weight."

"Serotonin in the brain is produced from 5- HTP. Animal studies show that supplementing with 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) turns off the craving for food."

Here's another one:

Chromium

Insulin insensitivity is considered by many modern scientists to be another major cause of obesity. Chromium plays a key role in increasing the body's sensitivity to insulin. Without chromium, insulin's action is blocked, blood sugar levels are elevated, and the sugars turn to fat instead of muscle and lean tissue.

Increase insulin sensitivity with a supplement rich in Chromium and you can help strip away that fat.

So what about that?

All of a sudden instead of that boring old vitamin line that nobody really wants to hear about, you have a sexy, little known supplement that can really help reduce hunger cravings.

Do your own research and you'll come up with lots of ideas. In fact I think it's such a great idea that I'm going to write a short book or a report on this very subject myself.

How do you write the book?

This is really simple… you just Google a phrase like "vitamins minerals weight loss" and you'll get 2 million hits. Browse the articles that are relevant, choose the parts you like and copy and paste them into a book. Then re-work the content so you're not lifting the authors phrasing directly and you've got your book. It can be as short as 10 pages of 12 point type in Microsoft Word… say about 3000 words. Try not to make it more than 20 pages. You want the reader to finish it.

Now you have broken the ice, your prospect knows you're in business and you can follow up. My number of warm market approaches exploded when I did this. There is virtually no rejection.

But I like to be hitting all the bases, so I'm still very active online too.
