Your Questions About Internet Marketing Blog

Daniel asks…
Can Anyone suggest an excellent Affiliate Network that caters to Pay-per-lead program?
i am planning to venture into Internet marketing. since i don’t have time to create a product of my own, i would rathre do Affiliate marketing on pay per lead program. I just think that this is easier than pay per sale and more lucrative than pay per click.
What do you think? I am on the right track?
I am an overseas worker away from family so i am looking for additional income so i can go home for good and still have some source of income.

Jere answers:
I don’t want to dash your hopes, but none of these are going to create you the income you may hope and desire. The market is all ready over saturated with this and to even make a dent you would have to create some extremely powerful ad copy to make you stand out beyond everyone else.
So many people do this and just spend time clicking, submitting, etc. And never make much of anything despite what ads proclaim. What’s worse than this is those who sell subscriptions to help boost your income and make it easier. The only income being boosted is by the one who just took your money.
After having tried all this ‘easy stuff and free stuff’ over and over again. I gave up, rolled up my sleeves, found a good solid 5 pillars company and started marketing for them. Yes, starting a home based business requires a small investment, however, after you spend enough trying different things that don’t work and start adding up what you have spent, you could have started in the right direction the first time. Just my thoughts.
I wrote a blog on advice for working from home. There is a link in the 2nd paragraph of my profile here on answers. I invite you to read it and it’s all generic information. If I can help any further let me know.

If you think you can or think you can’t, either way, you are right!

Mary asks…
how can i improve my real estate business thru internet?
I’m just staying at home most of the time, doing household chores & running a small record bar business at the same time doing internet marketing coz my husband is a licensed real estate broker. How can I contact more buyers thru internet?

Jere answers:
Best to invest in a good website. NAR’s 2005 Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers showed 77% of buyers used the Internet in their search! This is a HUGE number!
Everyone wants to be on page ONE of search results! If you think it will be EZ, I have a good deal on a bridge for you!
Best to….
I personally used a firm (link below) that did a 250,000 site submissions for my site. It worked great. But, results now take a few months.
Also, Get HIGH placement for your KEYWORDS!
Even when indexed by the search engines, it’s not going to help you if your keyword shows up on page 987. Sure, everyone would like their keywords to show up on page one, two or three of the returned results. But, I want to win the lottery! So? What are you going to do? One thing for sure….it will NOT be EZ!
You need GOOD/Informative content! Without this you will be wasting your time on other methods.
Below is some info that can assist you……
When someone types a specific phrase into a major search engine usually the results will show 10 site per page. These ‘organic’ sites are boxed in, usually on all sides by pay-per-click site ads.
So, in SEO theory you have to have your site placed on page one, two or three of the returned organic results to really benefit from the power of the Internet!
As an example. If someone in NY wanted a San Diego real estate broker, they would, perhaps type “San Diego real estate brokers’ into GOOGLE. If you do this today (standings change all the time), after the pay-per-click and the ‘local results’ you’ll see the first site is: www.brokerforyou.com You will also see (upper right)
“Results 1 – 10 of about 5,080,000 for San Diego real estate brokers.”
So, you will see that this one broker’s site (not a major real estate firm) has out ranked over FIVE MILLION other sites for this VERY POPULAR real estate search phrase!!!
Quite impressive!
After looking into the site, I also noted lots, of timely useful info in an EZ to follow site. This is VERY important! As without good ORIGINAL content you’ll NEVER have a top ranking site!
But, I also found on one of the internal pages, the name of the company that does the SEO for this site. They are:
http://www.websitetrafficbuild…
I also visited their site, and found it too had a high Google pagerank. Plus, they had great articles on SEO and software for learning to do your own SEO.
The bad news is that any true SEO work to get on page one of Google is VERY time intensive. Www.websitetrafficbuilders.com has a guaranteed results program…but, as it starts at $3,950.00, it’s really not for the little person.
I have downloaded their free trial SEO software, just a few days ago, so have not used it yet! But, I’m really learing alot for the free software. If they put this into an ebook, I’m sure they could sell quite a few copies!
*Also, on first link below is a website that offers about ten website and blog awards. They are FREE & even provide a link back to your site! Plus, they show the visitors that your site is a noch above the rest. Keep in mind, to get the award you have to have good info on your site and not just junk w/jumping graphics and tons of AdWords!
So, bottom line, GET THEIR FREE TRIAL SOFTWARE and even if you do NOT do anything else…you’ll learn a great deal about SEO from people who make their livelihood DOING IT!

IS IT POSSIBLE, to get feedback from people who have tryed to make money on the Internet And Failed Terribly ?
The TRUE Dark side of Internet Marketing is really not Exposed by the Actual people who have suffered losses of money,and personal disappointment. All of the hype is Always About How Easy And Attractive the Home Based Business Will Be , Soon As YOU Send The MONEY. If There is a large number of ‘ victims ‘ or Failed attempts to succeed in this indutry, i wonder if the impact has been SERIOUS such as emotional,financial,marital,and others.

Jere answers:
It sounds like you tried to make money online and it didn’t work for you. Don’t let that stop you from succeeding in things. There are plenty of opportunities out there that you can succeed in. With the proper teaching, support and help anyone can succeed in business if they really want it.
I created a blog on my yahoo page on home based business opportunities. There are over half a dozen different opportunities from different industries. People that I know that do really well in theres and help others that are in the same industry. It also has a lot of information about the truth with scams, BBB and what you need to do to succeed in your home based business. Things to look for when collaborating with a company to see if it’s legit. Time factors etc. You also need to talk to someone who is involved in the industry and not just try and do it on your own. You should be able to have help.
Here’s the URL to my Yahoo page blog:
