Increase Your Conversion Rates with Squeeze Pages

December 11th, 2008

If you’re looking for a great way to increase your conversion rates, using squeeze pages may be your answer.

A squeeze page is a simple web page that has one specific purpose – to convince your potential customer to give you their email address. Why? So that you can follow up with them. Studies have shown it may take 7 or more contacts with a potential customer before you make a sale. Instead of sending your potential customers directly to a sales page, send them to a squeeze page so that you can get their email address and follow up with them. This will increase your sales considerably.

A squeeze page should contain mainly text with very few if any graphics. In addition, it shouldn’t contain anything that will distract your readers attention away from your text. In other words, you want their full attention on your words.
 
Place a powerful heading toward the top of the page displayed in a large font size. There should also be some additional sub-headlines and a subscription box. The text should be no longer than 100 words, and should all fit within the browser window without scrolling. Below the subscription box should be some text that assures your visitors that you will never sell or share their information.

To ensure your squeeze page will be effective, you must offer your visitors something of value, such as information, a quality ebook, software, video, or audio file in exchange for their email address.

There are many companies that use this technique both online and offline. Some companies run contests that require you to visit their web site and enter your email address to see if you’ve won something. There are also companies that will give you a music or software download when you enter your email address. These are all highly effective forms of squeeze page use.

Here’s how to create a high converting squeeze page:

1. Research your potential market prior to setting up your squeeze page. If there isn’t an interest in your market, you will not be successful.

2. Your headlines and text must be effective and convince your visitor to take action. If you’re not confident in your copywriting skills, hire a professional.
 
3. You must provide your potential customers with an incentive that is of value and of interest to them. The incentive should make them want to give you their email address.

4. When creating your web page, you should only provide enough information to create curiosity and make your visitors want to learn more. If you tell them everything up front, they won’t sign up to receive further information.

5. Make sure that your squeeze page is short. All of your information, including your text and subscription box should be displayed above the fold of your page, which is within your browser window without scrolling.

6. Explain to your visitors that you can’t guarantee how long this offer will be available. This will create a sense of urgency to encourage them to take action quickly.

7. As with any web site, if you want it to be successful, you must have a steady stream of traffic.

Squeeze pages can be used in a variety of ways, including marketing affiliate products. The best way to get the most out of your new subscriber list is to follow up with your members. You can do this by using a follow up autoresponder, such as AWeber or GetResponse. If you have presented your members with a limited time offer if they take a specific action within a specific amount of time, continue to remind them how many days they have left until the offer expires.

You can see a sample squeeze page here:

Squeeze pages are one of the most effective Internet marketing tools used to build a list of targeted potential customers. Use them to your advantage.

Launch Your Own One Time Offer

December 1st, 2008

If you’ve been on the Internet for a while, you are most likely familiar with one-time offers (OTO) and have most likely been presented with a few.

If you’re not familiar with this powerful marketing strategy, a OTO is a web page that displays immediately after you register at a membership site, subscribe to an online publication, or purchase a product. This page is actually an upsell page in which you are presented with a great offer to purchase something at a highly discounted rate. You have two choices – you can purchase the product or leave the page and never be offered the low discounted rate again.

A OTO can be a very effective sales tool. However, writing the sales copy for the page can be difficult, as you only have a few seconds to get your readers attention, convince them that the offer is of great value, and create a sense of urgency.

The great thing about a OTO is that a quality page with a quality product can produce a very high conversion rate. For this reason, many marketers are now using them.

However, unless you have some products you can sell and know how to write an effective one-time offer sales letter, you won’t be able to take advantage of this highly effective sales tool.

I’ve got some great news for you.  I just picked up a great one-time offer package that will give you an opportunity to not only pick up some great products you can sell with your one-time offer, but also a great one-time offer sales letter you can use on your own web site.

This isn’t some poorly written sales page that you see with many resell products. This sales letter was written by a professional copywriter who charged nearly $2,500. It’s quality sales copy written to produce results.

What’s more, you will also receive not one, but 50 of the newest, hottest resale products that you can sell and keep 100% of the profits.

And finally, you won’t believe the low price…

If you’d like to have your own OTO page and products, now is the time to act.

How to Get Your Site on the Internet

November 17th, 2008

If you’d like to get your own web site up on the Internet, but you’re not sure how to go about doing it, you have a few choices:

1. You can hire a professional web designer.

Although this will be the easiest route to take, depending on what you need, this can be very expensive.

You can find web designers who will bid on your project at any of the following web sites:

RentaCoder.com
eLance.com
Guru.com
ScriptLance.com

2. You can purchase a web page template and pay the company to edit it for you.

This is also an easy route to take; however, can also be expensive.

3. You can purchase a web page template and edit it yourself.

This requires you to learn some basic HTML; however, is one of the least expensive options, if you don’t mind that the template is also sold to other people.

4. You can use a service that will enable you to design your own pages right online.

This is a great choice if you want to get your site online quickly, but want to avoid the expense of hiring someone to design the site for you. This option will provide you with a quick and easy way to visually design your own web site right online without learning HTML. In addition, they will also host your site.

5. You can take the time to educate yourself and design your web site yourself.

This is also a great option, as I highly recommend that you take some time to educate yourself and at least learn some basic HTML. However, this option is also going to take the most time. If this is the route you’d like to take, my Web Design Mastery course will take you step by step through designing your own web site.

If money isn’t an issue and you just want to get your web site up as quickly as possible without doing any of the work yourself, you will most likely want to go with option one or two.

However, if you don’t mind doing some of the work yourself, but really don’t want to learn HTML, your best option will be option 4.

To your success!

Increase Your Search Engine Ranking

November 6th, 2008

If you’re looking for a way to increase your Search Engine ranking, your first step should be to optimize your web page.

Here are some basic guidelines to assist you:

1. Use your most relevant keyword phrase within the title of your web page. A keyword phrase is two or more words that best describe your web page. If your web page is focusing on grooming a dog, then your best keyword phrase will be ‘dog grooming.’

Each page should focus on one main keyword phrase used in different variations.

2. Place the title of your page at the top of your page within a HEADING tag.

3. Place sub headings within your content that contain your most relevant keyword phrase used in different variations.

4. Always include your most relevant keyword phrase at the bottom of your web page.

5. When creating links, always create your links with your keywords. For example, if your web page focuses on dog training, create your links something like this:

Dog Training Tips
Dog Obedience
Dog Socialization
Dog House Training
Dog Crate Training
Dog Behavior
Dog Barking
Dog Aggression
Dog Biting
Dog Chewing
Dog Digging

6. When creating your secondary web pages, name them using the keyword phrase that best describes the page. For example, if your page contains dog grooming tips, name your page dog_grooming_tips.html.

7. When displaying images on your web page, name your images with your keywords and include your keywords within an ALT tag. For example, if the image is of a dog being trained, your image code might look something like this:

<img src=”dog_training.jpg” alt=”dog training image”>

8. Although many Search Engines are no longer using META tags to rank web sites, some still do. For this reason, it is still important to include them within your pages. META tags are HTML code that is placed between the <HEAD> and </HEAD> tags and instruct the browser.

The META description tag will contain a description of your site. This description will be visible in some of the Search Engines when your site is returned in a search.

Your description should focus on your site’s most important keyword phrases. Your primary keyword phrase should be placed at the very beginning of your description followed by one or two secondary keyword phrases. Your description should be less than 200 characters, including spaces, and should be a readable sentence.

Example:

<META name=”DESCRIPTION” content=”Providing dog training tips, obedience, and behavior information.”>

The META Keywords tag will contain a listing of your keyword phrases separated with a comma. Your primary keyword phrase should be first, followed by one or two secondary keyword phrases. These keyword phrases should be in the same order as they are displayed within your description.

Example:

<META name=”KEYWORDS” content=”dog training tips, dog obedience training, dog behavior training”>

The key to ranking high in the Search Engines and driving highly targeted traffic to your site is to select highly targeted keyword phrases that are less competitive and less generalized. You don’t want to target every little possible keyword; you want to focus on your primary keyword phrases for each page.

To your success!

Significantly Increase Your Sales With Free Bonuses

October 25th, 2008

You can significantly increase your sales by giving your customers some bonus products with the purchase of your product or service. Please don’t take this tip lightly, as many times, your customers will purchase your product or service just for the bonuses!

The key to using this technique effectively is to only include bonuses that target your specific market and are of high quality, which means they could be sold on their own.

For example, if you’re selling a book on training your dog, a great bonus might be video tutorials on training a dog, or audio interviews with professional dog trainers, etc.

If you don’t want to create your own bonuses to give away, there are a wealth of PLR (Private Label Rights) products you can purchase and use as free bonuses for your product. However, prior to purchasing a PLR product, make sure that you review the rights you will receive and that you can use the product as a bonus with your product.

You can find PLR products by visiting Google.com and typing in your target market plus PLR. Or, if you’re looking for a specific type of PLR, such as videos, type in your target market plus PLR videos. So, for example, if your target market is dog training, you would search for dog training PLR.

Once you have your bonuses, make sure you have an image to display with your text that represents your bonus. Your text should tell your reader all about the benefits of the bonus and explain that they will receive it free with their purchase of your product or service.

If you aren’t confident in your ability to create a professional looking image to display with your bonus, I highly recommend that you hire a professional graphics designer. If you don’t, and your image doesn’t look professional, the perceived value of your bonus will be low, which will defeat the purpose.

You can find some professional graphics designers here:

Absolute Covers
Dynamic Covers
Killer Covers

To your success!
