Why The Internet?

A lot of members have been asking us, “Why The Internet?” Why couldn’t we introduce them to something profitable offline, that is tangible and perhaps, like a offline business idea or venture? Why do we advocate online businesses so much? Well, simple.

Today, most people access the internet for information, products and services. They are online for every single reason possible - to shop, find information, be entertained, learn, watch tv etc. Basically, more and more people are going to the Internet and it is becoming an indespensible aspect of life.

All entrepreneurs have turned their attention to the World Wide Web too because it reaches so many people so quickly. Sales are increased dramatically and expenses are smaller too. Think high profits, low costs. It paints the perfect picture. If we were to tell you to set up a small shop, you would have employees and other expenses. But if you run an online business, you would probably not spend much on hiring employees and paying for rental space.

Selling products or services online has become very popular for many new entrepreneurs ranging in all ages, even as young as 15. In fact, there are more and more young people who are starting their online businesses with little capital but a whole lot of ideas.

Here’s one that you can adopt, for example, let’s say you studied Mathematics in college and got a degree in this subject. You write up an eBook explaining mathematical theories. You make sure it is information packed and very good quality. You sell it for 15 dollars to whoever is interested and you get their email address so you can forward them new updated info. You now have an email list so you can keep in contact with your buyers and possibly sell them other products in the future. You keep track of all your sales, you take care of customer service, and you handle everything.

Guess what? You keep 100 percent of the profits.

Because firstly, you don’t need to pay publishing fees for the ebook. Secondly, you don’t need to pay for a shop space.

Just on those two points alone, you save a whole lot. In other words, you do not need millions to start up a company on the internet. All you need is a great idea and the drive to do most of the work yourself.

So just focus on creating that great idea!

Starting Out On Internet Marketing

When you are starting out on internet marketing, you may find that though the concepts behind Internet marketing might be quite simple, executing effective strategies can be extremely difficult. With this in mind, we will attempt to explain the concept of Internet marketing for beginners and and outline some very basic strategies.

We will cover the concepts of creating a website and placing banner ads for a start.

Creating A Website

One of the most basic steps when starting out on internet marketing is to create a website (or any form of webpage). It can be a website or a blog. However, a blog is much easier to create than a website. Given that there are many free blogging platforms available, it will be easy for you to  set up one in just minutes.Blogs can be easily set up at blogging platforms such as Blogger and Wordpress. Although there are many more free blogging platforms, these 2 are the recommended ones.

Blogs are more casual and personal and is easy to maintain. Hence, it’s recommended for internet marketing beginners to set up blogs instead of websites. You just need to make sure that you update frequently to ensure that you have a steady blog traffic and readership. However, reputation and traffic need to take time to build, so concentrate on that before trying to find and execute ways to monetize the blog.

If you are knowledgeable in web designing and are setting up your website, you might want to consider creating a website that adequately meets your needs. You will have to brainstorm what kind of personality you want to convey through your site, what do you want to achieve on your site, what are the products and services that you want to advertise on your site etc.  Most importantly, you need to create a website which is attractive, functional and suitable to your products and services.

Placing Banner Ads

Banner ads are another popular option for advertising on the Internet. Banner ads are advertisements which typically appear along the top of a website but it may also include smaller ads in other locations such as the sidebar. Banner ads typically include graphics and text which entice Internet users to click on the advertisement. Once a user clicks on the ad, they are directed to your website. This type of advertising can be very effective when care is taken to place the advertisements on high traffic websites which attract an audience who may have an interest in the product.

After you build your website, you can start to sell banner ad space on your website to others. Depending on where you want the banners to be, you can easily advertise about your blog/website’s banner ad space. Advertisers are always looking for new avenues to gain more exposure, hence if you are able to generate a huge traffic to your blog, you can definitely use your blog traffic stats to convince advertisers to advertise at your blog.
