100 Internet Marketing Tips
These tips are a compilation from the many e-books and courses I’ve read on my journey with Internet Marketing. I hope you’ll find them useful.
The tips are in blocks of 10, starting below Use the links in the menu to the right to navigate through them….
- Turn your ad into an article. It could be a story, or how-to article. This will lead readers into your ad without them knowing it’s an ad. They’ll already be interested when they get to your sales pitch. For example, you could start your ad, “Once upon a time…” or “Free Report! How to….”.
- You could upsell to your customers. When they’re at your order page, tell them about a few extra related products you have for sale. They could just add it to their original order. For example, you could say, “Our new e-book would make a nice edition to the report. Just click here to add it to your order. It’s only $15 more.”
- Tell your customers if they refer four customers to your web site, they will receive a full rebate of their purchase price. This will turn one sale into three sales. You could also offer them other things in return for referrals like free e-books, free software, coupons, discounts, etc.
- When you sell a product, give your customers the option of joining an affiliate program so they can make commissions selling your product. This will multiply the sale you just made. For example, just imagine how many sales you could have with 1000 affiliates selling for you. It could eliminate ever buying any paid advertising again!
- Use the phrase “invest in our product” instead of the words “buy” or “purchase”. This makes prospects feel they’re investing in their future if they buy. You could also tell people how much others have got back from your product by publishing testimonials of people who have made money or reaped the benefits.
- Use logos and slogans for your business. They make it easier for people to remember and identify your business. For example, how many times have you had a problem and the first thing that popped into your mind is some business’ logo or slogan. It’s almost like an automatic reaction.
- When you ship out or deliver your product, include a coupon for other related products you sell in the package. This will attract them to buy more products from you. For example, haven’t you ever bought a product and saw an ad or flyer inside the package that made you want to buy another product?
- Send your customers a catalog of add-on products for the original product they purchased. This could be upgrades, special services, attachments, etc. If they like your product, they will buy the extra add-ons. For example, if you were selling computers, you could offer software, extended warranties, printer paper, etc.
- Use the word “fast” in your ad. People want fast results, fast delivery, fast ordering, etc. Nowadays, we usually value our time more than our money. For example, you could say, “Our product works fast!” Another example, “Our product comes with fast shipping options.”
- Send your customers free products with their product package. The freebies should have your ad printed on them. They could be bumper stickers, ball caps, T-shirts, etc. This will allow other people to see your ad and order. The freebies could also be trials and samples of other products and services you sell.
Completely agree with you.
How is ‘the cloud’ affecting business?
An informative and very much worthwhile Newsletter. I have just completed my first year on the Internet, most of that time in Affiliate Marketing. No success yet but 2007 is starting off positive. I like and have used the word “invest” and “investment” a number of times.It adds that professional panache to any product or service.

it’s very important to multiple-choice while surfing on the web . not only is it distracting but one will be invited to more other opportunities not even expexted beforehand . That’s another way to fight routine of the one and the only seach availability . rather we will enjoy what extra we will get while navigating on the web . To the satisfaction of internet users in general .
