Perhaps like I once did, you think that getting a ton of web traffic is the answer to your prayers to make money online.

Well I am going to show you how that is absolutely not true!

You see the thing about striving for more and more traffic is that you make yourself particularly susceptible to being scammed.

You know what I am talking about…those outrageous offers that claim they’ll make you rich literally overnight but never explain or show you how they will do it.

Truth is those offers from supposed gurus have only one thing in mind and that is…to take your money and run!

But I am not here to talk about obvious scams because if you haven’t figured it out well what can I say but…Good Luck To You!

What I am here to do is point you in the right direction so you can finally start to make money online.

Okay remember I said that I make $5000 per month with just 30 visitors…well it’s not really that hard to achieve once we do the math:

So I get 30 visitors a day to my blog where I am offering a digital (downloaded) product for $25. Now assuming just 10 of those 30 visitors decide to purchase this is how my monthly income looks:

Amount Made In One Day:  10 visitors purchase at $25 per head = $250

Amount Made In One Week:   $250 x 7 = $1750

Amount Made In One Month: $250 x 30 = $7500

Okay naturally some days less people will purchase and other days more will. And in fact this particular blog I am referring to actually makes more than $5000 per month…I just rounded up the figures to the minimum monthly take.

Now That You’ve Seen The Why Let’s See The How!

As you can see it is not so difficult to make $5000 per month online…BUT ONLY IF you follow the following three fundamental internet business principles.

Whenever I start a new online business I always follow the exact same procedure which can be simply broken down into the following 3 steps:

The Three Steps You Must Master To Make Money Online

 

1. Find The Right Market

2. Successfully Persuade People To Go For Your Offer

3. Get The Right Kind of Web Traffic

Finding The Right Market

Right let’s deal with step 1 which is find the right market. Finding the right market is what is known in the business as Premarket Research and involves the following:

1. Finding a profitable market that is competitive enough to ensure a steady flow of customers but not too competitive as to make it virtually impossible for you as a beginner to compete successfully.

Effective premarket research involves a little brainstorming on your part. Don’t forget to take into consideration your interest and hobbies as those too could quite easily prove to be lucrative niche markets worth pursuing.

The obvious advantage in targeting a niche market that coincides with your hobbies is that it will be that much easier for you to persevere and thus succeed since it will be more like fun and less like work.

However targeting and conquering a market that does not fall under your interest is still feasible so long as you are highly motivated and driven!

2. Deeper premarket research requires an in depth analysis of the keywords you’re going to target.

This is another very important step because when done properly not only will you identify keywords that are profitable you will also isolate those that you can rank well for on the search engines quickly!

3. Check out the competition and see what products they are selling and what keywords they are using to gain web traffic from the search engines. Also find out what is selling successfully and at what price.

All this should give you a clear picture of whether you can actually make money from your intended market.

 

Market Research…Finding That Hungry Market! 

Proper market research (or more correctly…premarket research) is absolutely essential to your quest to make money online!

Well it’s the one step that you cannot afford to fool around with and here’s why. 

A. Though you can choose any type of online real estate (blog, website, membership site) to represent your internet business; 

B. Though you can choose from a variety of internet marketing platforms to make money; 

C. Though you can use any number of means to drive web traffic to your internet business; 

…all those things won’t mean a thing if the market you have selected is all wrong! 

And what do we mean by a wrong market? Well a wrong market is one that is:

• Oversaturated (i.e., too competitive)

• Undersaturated (not enough viable prospects to profit from)

It all boils down to this…you really cannot afford to make the following 2 mistakes when selecting a market to invest in:

Choosing An Oversaturated Market

Though it’s good to have competition in the market you select (because this shows that other marketers find it profitable) too much competition means that as a new contender to that market you won’t make a cent for a very, very long time…if at all!

Choosing An Undersaturated Market

This type of market is the exact opposite of the oversaturated market.

An undersaturated market is one where you cannot make money because there’re simply too few prospective buyers in it.

The bottom line is that if you choose either of these two market types your quest to make money online is going to go nowhere fast!

Proper market research will ensure that you avoid these pitfalls!

How Keyword Research Will Make Or Break Your Success!

1. Identifying the right keywords ensures that:

• You choose the right niche or subniche market

• You know how many people search for the term and its related phrases on a daily basis (i.e., the amount of web traffic you can expect)

• You know whether marketers are bidding on that keyword and its associated phrases thereby determining whether it has true profit value

• You can identify the difficulty level of your selected keyword(s) which in turn will predict how quickly you can dominate search engine traffic from it

• You choose the right anchor text to incorporate in links pointing to your blog or site to improve its rankings on the search engines

• You actually concentrate on keywords that have high conversion rates in (other words, keywords that convert into profit)

• That if you decide to pay for advertising you do not waste your money on the wrong keywords

It is quite obvious from the above list that your choice of keywords affects every aspect of your internet business!

This influence and effect is so great that the right keywords will guarantee quick success whereas the wrong ones will guarantee equally quick failure!

To summarize:

You can choose from any number of online real estate platforms (blog, website, membership sites, forums) from which to conduct your internet business…

You can choose from a large variety of internet business models with which to pursue your internet marketing dreams…

But if you don’t conduct proper market research it really doesn’t matter which model you choose because the outcome will be the same…FAILURE!

Getting Web Traffic That Counts

Web Traffic Is The Lifeblood Of Every Internet Business!

However one thing that you must understand is that there is traffic and then there is traffic!

So what do I mean exactly by that statement? Basically what I am saying is that there is absolutely no point wasting your time and effort on web traffic that doesn’t convert into sales!

In other words the traffic you want is web traffic that converts or what I like to call:

Traffic That Counts!

Traffic that counts is that type of web traffic that actually converts into profit even when the amount of traffic is as little as 10 visitors per day.

In other words traffic that counts is extremely on-target and highly relevant traffic, so much so that the few visitors that you get to your site are literally tripping over themselves to do your bidding!

Why You Need Traffic That Counts!

Now unless you have unlimited funds it is not in your interest to buy traffic. Why? Because you simply won’t be able to compete with those well-established marketers who have an unlimited budget to spend on advertising and thus pay for their web traffic!

Besides say you do discover some undiscovered ultra-cheap keyword that converts extremely well into profit it won’t be your discovery for long! Why? Because…

Big name marketers typically have expensive and powerful software designed to keep tabs on other people’s advertising campaigns. And when they unearth your very profitable yet little-known keyword campaign they’ll simply outbid you and completely dominate the landscape for that keyword!

What Is The Best Kind Of Web Traffic To Get?

Okay there are evidently many avenues from which you can attract your traffic and those include:

1) Traffic from social media websites

2) Traffic from forums

3)Traffic from search engines

Let’s look at these different sources of web traffic starting with social media websites.

The first thing you have to ask yourself is when was the last time you clicked on an advert on either Facebook, YouTube or Twitter? I’m guessing never right?

You are not alone…99.999% of people on social mdeia websites find marketing downright distractive and annoying and the first thing they do is delete those pesky ADs!

The plain and simple truth though is that web traffic from social media websites converts extremely poorly. And in fact if you wish to make a buck from social media web traffic you really do need to go that extra mile to woo your would be purchasers.

I dunno about you but the idea of spending hours upon hours of my life entertaining, wooing and literally pleading with disinterested people on social media websites to come and buy my product really doesn’t appeal to me whatsoever.

A PERSON ACTIVELY ENGAGED IN A SEARCH IS MUCH EASIER TO CONVINCE TO BUY!

I’d much rather attract web traffic that is really interested in what I have to offer in the first place.

And where would I find that kind of traffic? The search enigines ofcourse. You see people who use search engines are people who are looking for a solution to a problem.

In other words a person who types in a keyword in a search engine is a person on a mission to find find resolution…so much so that they are willing to pay for it!

And in case you didn’t know….a person who is actively engaged in a search query on the search engines is much more likely to purchase from you because the mere act of proactively engaging in a search makes them a gazillion times more willing to pay cold hard cash for a solution!

So do you see where this is heading?

It means that if your blog or website happens to rank well for that searched-for keyword then you are in the perfect spot to grab the sale.

And the way to get your website in the path of all those would-be purcahsers is through accurate search engine optimization (SEO).

Simply put, accurate keyword research and proper search engine optimization (SEO) is the secret ingredient that allows you to make money online even if you are getting less than 30 visitors a day!

I mean would you rather get 1000 visitors a day who never buy anything or would you rather get 30 visitors of whom 10-15 actually purchase from you? (By the way even if just 5 of those visitors purchased from you it still beats getting 1000 visitors a day who do absolutley nothing!)

The correct application of accurate Keyword Research and Search Engine Optimzation is the secret weapon I use to make good money on my various blogs even with as little as 30 visitors a day!
