E-Ezine - list building income tactics
1.1. Split the
content for use as blog posts or articles. Re-write it to ensure originality
and to insert keywords that are relevant to your site. You probably already
know that the more your business gets “out there” the faster it will grow. PLR
material is very versatile.
2.2.Give away
products for free to build your list. This is probably the most common use of
PLR products, but definitely very effective. Practically everyone likes to get
something for nothing. People will want to join your list to receive more from
you. Many people use eBooks to really introduce themselves and the information
they have tooffer.You can also use the material to create newsletters, which
will increase your email marketing campaign.
3.3.Test your
marketing campaigns. If you are doing email or direct mail campaigns, create
two different landing pages with the same product and test the conversion rate
of the landing page or the conversion rate of the email or direct mail message.
You can have the greatest information available, but sometimes how that
information is presented can make all the difference
4.4.Use content
for free publicity or press releases. Use the information to write up
informational editorials or press releases to help get free publicity in local
and online media channels.
5.5.Establish
yourself as an authority in your niche. Build your credibility with additional
information and resources from the PLR products. Since practically the
beginning of time, authors have been revered as authorities in their field.
6.6.Break it
into parts to be loaded into your weekly or monthly auto responder. Just like
any written material, people like “series.” By taking the material and dividing
it into effective sections, you can draw people back to you again and again.
7.7.Add value to
your joint venture contribution. Create a unique PLR package product that is
available to your joint venture partner list only. Being part of a “special”
group makes subscribers feel important. If people know they can only get the
material from your joint venture contribution, it truly makes them feel
important. This can definitely addvalue.
8.6.Use snippets
to create blurbs on Twitter. Pre-schedule the tweets using pieces from the
product to help engage your audience. Give them just enough to make them know
they can’t miss what you have to say. Remember, the material becomes yours. You
can use itanyway you choose, but with the popularity of Twitter. You can let
those people who follow you get a “sneak peek” of what’s to come and definitely
direct more content to your site or blog.
In any case you need:
FREE traffic to your websites
FREE
autoresponder service, your own list, not co-owned
FREE page
builder, hosting included
FREE popup
generator, hosting included
FREE link
tracker that can differentiate bot vs human traffic
Basically, almost everything you need to create a successful online
business can be found
Right out of the gate the company boasts a sign-up rate of 83% for people viewing the presentation video to completion. While I can not attest to that it could be legit as the program is completely free to join.
So what is the catch?
While the program is free to join, they do have upgrade options. Before I get to the upgrade option I have to mention that the free account is more than generous. You also don't get hit with OTO's (one time offers) when signing in to your account.
Before getting into all the benefits you get as a free member, let's first delve into what SoManyHits is...
Like the sales video explains, SoManyHits is first and foremost a URL tracking and shortening service, meaning you can shorten all your affiliate links and track how many clicks they receive. Unlike mostly all other tracking services (even the paid ones), there is no limit on the amount of campaigns you can create or clicks you may receive during a given month before shelling out more money to keep on tracking. This is true even for free members.
They also made it easy to track multiple advertising sources from the same campaign tracking URL by simply adding a keyword identifiable to you to the end of the tracking URL. When a shortened tracking URL is followed, the hit is recorded and displayed in your back-office, complete with a break-down of where the hits came from (keywords appended).
The service also promises to create a flood of traffic to any and all campaigns that will keep on doubling. While this may sound outrageous, it is actually very likely to happen because of their unique referral system. Well..., when I say unique, for those of you familiar with their sister site EasyCash4Ads.com, it actually makes use of the exact same 2-up referral system where your first two referrals are passed up to your sponsor into what they call traffic lines. Every person who ends up in one of your traffic lines will first have to sponsor two people who will go to their sponsor, which means that particular traffic line keeps doubling.
If you are put off by the notion that you first have to refer two people that goes to your sponsor before the system can begin working for you, the good news is that sign-ups should not be hard to come by seeing that the program is free to join and their affiliate tools also helps a lot to achieving this requirement (more on that later).
Getting back to the traffic aspect, every time one of your tracking links are followed, visitors will first pass through an ad gateway, similar to services such as ad fly where they will first see an interstitial ad for a couple of seconds before being directed to the site being tracked. That ad will be a random campaign belonging to your sponsor, so when you take into account the way traffic lines keep doubling, it gives credence to the claim that your traffic will also keep doubling. It should be noted, when you create a new campaign, you can choose to promote the campaign through your traffic lines via an interstitial ad or (for pro members) a pop-under ad. Members may also choose not to promote certain campaigns.
While there is something to be said about the annoyance of pop-under and interstitial ads, bear in mind that their target market is Internet marketers. These are the same people signing up for programs through traffic exchanges, so I can very well see this traffic converting very well indeed.
Apart from the traffic, URL tracking and URL shortening, you also have the ability to export the contact details of everybody in your traffic lines into a CVS file to easily import to your auto-responder of choice. The great thing about this for the new member joining is that they will only end up in their sponsor's mailing list because of the way their referral system works. This is great as the last thing I want when signing up for a new opportunity is to end up in as many mailing lists as are dependent on the size of the member's down-line or up-line. For those who don't yet have an auto-responder account (what are you waiting for?), you still get to message your traffic lines through an internal messaging system complete with a WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editor every 10 days. (Pro members can message their traffic lines every 60 hours)
The owners of SoManyHits.com realize the strength of an affiliate network and this is reflected in the tools they make available to members to promote their affiliate links. When they launched their sister site EasyCash4Ads, the IM world was abuzz with talk about their beautiful splash and capture pages. With SoManyHits they did it again with a total of 120 splash, capture and brain-teaser pages (which double as splash pages) and improved on the design by displaying an animation while the image is loading. These pages can also easily be shared as stunning image cards to your Twitter and Facebook followers with a click of a button.
Members have an abundance of emails and banners as well as some other nifty tools to promote their links, not to mention affiliate links also get promoted through their shortened tracking links which means they can actually lay claim to their product slogan of working smarter, not harder.
Getting to the upgraded features, analyzing your tracking stats really come into their own with much more detailed reports and real time charts. Platinum members also get to message their traffic lines every 60 hours as apposed to every 10 days, they have more options available to them when creating campaigns but where the pro membership really shines is in the income plan.
Platinum membership plans start at $27 for 60 days or $13.50 per month. (a quick Google search revealed most of the competition start at an average of $29/month with limited clicks). From there the options go up to $69 for 6 months ($11.50 per month), $121 for one year ($10, 08 per month) and $177 for 2 years ($7, 38 per month) As an upgraded member you will receive, $10, $20, $30 and $50 respectively every time the platinum membership is renewed. Free members will receive 40% of the commission amount while the other 60% will go to the first upgraded member in their up-line. This effectively means upgraded members will make an extra 60% commission from members who have already qualified out of their traffic lines.
Taking this up yet another notch, they also pay out performance bonuses where you could earn an additional 40% commission. Commissions are paid out twice a month and should you earn $350 during a pay period, they will add another $50 to your commission. Earn $700 and you will get an extra $100 on top of the $50 bonus you received. Earn $1000 and receive yet another $250 on top of what you already earned. From $1000 up, you will get a bonus of $400 for every $1000 you earn. Taking into consideration that upgraded members also receive 60% second tier commissions from free members who qualified out of their traffic lines, it effectively means you will earn 40% extra commission through your own efforts as well as from free members in your down-line.
From what I understand, the developers are already working on more features to be implemented that will be available to pro members. While the free plan will impress even the most critical user, members will be hard-pressed not to upgrade, especially taking the affordable upgrade options into account.
In summary, SoManyHits.com is a well-thought-out service offering a lot of value for the cash strapped marketer with a generous compensation plan and a promise to grow a traffic monster that will serve you well in time to come.
Pros:
- Unlimited campaigns with no restrictions - Great way to grow your mailing list - Very affordable to upgrade - Unique referral system - Generous compensation plan - A freebie hunter's dream
An amazing platform to grow your business is Traffic Ad Bar.
While many advertising resources decline, TAB keeps being one of my top places to continuously flow subscribers and signups.
How
is TAB different from other traffic exchanges? It does not bring a
random page in front of you, but text ads with a title and a description
(similar to Leadsleap, but without the image next to the text ad), so
you click on what really draws your attention.
So, how does TAB
work? As you browse through TAB's ads, you accumulate points (and
traffic), and every three days, your site boosts up one or more levels
in their so-called ladder, provided you have collected the necessary
points.
The higher the level, the more your site will be seen.
After a while, you will be getting hundreds of daily visitors virtually
on auto-pilot, significantly if you are upgraded to their Platinum
level.
At this point, you may have the following question: if I
will be getting hundreds of daily visitors on auto-pilot and lots of
other members also, who will be clicking on my text ads? The answer is
that many people will, and you will again be clicking on other people's
ads because everyone needs more traffic and everyone wants to rank to a
higher level.
But the traffic doesn't stop there; you also get a
free advertising profile, free advertising through their network, and
automatic referral to other networks.
Final Verdict
I
am satisfied with what TAB offers. The results are excellent. Of all
the platform sites that offer traffic exchanges that I know of, I
believe that TAB should be placed first. Join TAB and try it.
As you can probably imagine, user reviews are what drives Moosend to evolve and excel.
The feedback you give us is a core element of our goals and strategy,
and it’s what keeps us going. In simple words, the time you take to give
your opinion means the world to us.
Oh my, we’re getting emotional here. But being awarded for what you
are is not a minor thing. We’re over the mooo-n to announce that Moosend
has been named the #48 Best Marketing Product for 2021.
This makes us extremely happy because it means that Moosend is a proven leader in helping businesses of all types and sizes create successful online marketing campaigns, connect with their audience, and reach their goals.
G2 created Best Marketing Products for 2021 based on data from over 1M authentic, verified customer reviews. These reviews were written and published between January 1, 2020 – December 31, 2020.
“This isn’t a subjective list based on a few peoples’ opinions,” explains G2 CEO, GodardAbel. “With
the highest traffic and engagement, largest selection of product and
services, and highest quality data, G2 analyzes more than 4 million data
points to determine which products and companies make the list.”
Wondering what makes Moosend a must-have email marketing and automations tool?
Well, according to user ratings, among others, it’s the:
Ease of Use
Ease of Setup
Quality of Support
Here are some recent reviews from Moosend users:
“We tried many similar software but those won’t integrate
properly or would decline our request saying — a completed website is
required. We understood it was a reference to Sales funnel as an
incomplete website. Finally we ended up with Moosend. Moosend gave a
very good chat support and since we did not have coding skills, also
helped us out to see that Moosend integrates properly. That was the best
part — We got started!”
“The cost per value itself should be enough to give this service a
try with its forever free plan. And even if you decide to proceed with a
free plan down the line, you’re gonna be surprised. The price is way
more affordable in comparison with competitors, and the support team is
trying to help you, not just reply fast and send you to some techy
manual.”
“ I searched online and found different alternatives but most of
them were burdened with so many unnecessary processes that completely
took the excitement out of the whole process. I was able to come up with
the words while using a simple tool to get the design. Moosend is
foolproof if you ask me.”
Thank you for the love and trust, dear Moosenders! We couldn’t have done it without your support.
We’re not usually the show-off types, but there must be a reason why
all these companies and marketers use Moosend for their online marketing
campaigns.
So, if you’re looking for an easy-to-use, results-driven tool that
doesn’t break the bank, then we’re probably a match made in heaven.
You’ve heard
it before – if you want to succeed online you must build a list.
Because it’s true!
When you
build a list of your own, you can …
Help more people than ever. And if
you do that, it WILL come back to you many times.
Develop deep and lasting relationships that will sustain
you for years to come.
Advertise anything you want anytime you want as often as you
want … all FREE!
Participate in joint ventures that will help you
build your list even faster!
The most powerful weapon in any marketing
arsenal than a well-developed mailing list.
If you don’t build a list, you will have to …
Continually
buy advertising to
reach new audiences.
Hope and pray that your sales letters convert because
people won’t be on your list.
Pay
others who
have a list to promote for you when you need a traffic boost.
Experience higher costs for
customer acquisition than other marketers.
Experience lower lifetime customer value
than other businesses.
There are
many ways to begin building a list – too many to cover here. So today let’s
look at four ways that really
work.
1 – YOUR
EMAIL SIGNATURE LINE
If you send only 20 emails a
day (including replies) then you are sending over seven thousand emails a
year!
If you add
an offer to join your list to your signature those who are interested will take it up and those who are not
will ignore it.
And it costs
nothing!
2 – FORUMS
AND BLOGS
Ever visit a
forum and ask a question? How about making comments on blogs you follow and love?
Many people
have done one or both but don’t leverage
the experience in their favor. The truth is, this is a great way to
build a list with no extra effort.
Almost all blogs encourage
you to enter a URL when you comment but many comments contain no URL at all
when they could easily include the URL of your squeeze page.
If you post
on your favorite forum, make sure to
include a link where people can join your list.
3 – SOCIAL
MEDIA
All you need
is to focus on the big three –
Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn, and have some presence there every day you
work.
4 – YOUR
BLOG
If you don’t
have a blog there is simplyno reason to wait any
longer.
You can have
an almost limitless number of blogs
in various niches if you are a niche marketer.
You can
create virtually any number of squeeze pages too.
All for no extra cost!
So there you
have it, four ways to builda list of your own with no money and no
traffic!
Your email signature line.
Forums and blogs.
Social media.
Your own blog.
Begin using
these methods today and you will put
time on your side. Sooner than you think, you will build a list of your
own.
P.S. What you need to list bulding: autoresponder
and link tracker. You can get it for free here:

How can you make money with Krowd?
Quite simply, traffic is really important for anyone looking to make money online, regardless of the method you choose to use.
The fastest way to make money with Krowd (and the method the product
creators commonly use) is affiliate marketing. Driving targeted traffic
directly through your affiliate link in order to make commissions.
Does Krowd work?
In summary, yes it does.
The software does exactly what it claims, it gives you a proven
formula to drive visitors from a high traffic social network to your
website.
In order to drive the traffic, you will need to actually use the
software (i.e. entering the keyword) and following the steps to setup
your traffic streams. While the software automates a lot, it’s down to
you to make the most of it with regular use.
Who created Krowd?
The software was developed by affiliate marketing trio Venkata
Ramana, Mark Bishop and Nakul. These guys have made a lot of affiliate
sales over the years, so they know a thing or about the quality of
traffic required to succeed.
In fact, the reason these guys created Krowd was to drive more
traffic to their own offers. But because the website Krowd drives
traffic from is so big, there was no reason why the guys couldn’t
release the software to the public.
In Summary…
The reality is, in order to succeed online, you need traffic.
Can you drive free social traffic without Krowd? Yes, you can. Will you be as successful at it? Not a chance.
Krowd speeds up your success ten, twenty or fifty fold. It removes
the possibility of wasting time on campaigns destined to fail and
enables you to implement traffic formulas that are guaranteed to succeed
in minutes.
If you have a bit of money to invest, I suggest you pick Krowd up. At
the price it’s currently going for, it’s going to pay for itself in no
time.
Want your subscribers to buy your products or services? Then send them to an effective landing page.
A high performing landing page —also referred to as a Lead Page— will
help you not only attract new visitors, but collect their information
so you can. send them emails to tell them about the value of your offer.
Whether you’re looking to drive sales, sign ups, or downloads, a
highly optimized landing page can provide real value by bringing your
visitors to a page targeted directly to their needs.
But how do you know what landing page best practices to achieve your
desired action? We’re here to help with these 10 steps to create
landing pages that convert.
(You can create a landing page in minutes with AWeber’s Landing Page Builder)
Many landing pages suffer because
there’s just too much going on. Approach landing page design with a
feeling of respect for the time of the visitor. By making a clear and
digestible landing page, you can do more with content because you aren’t
forced to slam a loud call-to-action button awkwardly into a crowded
space.
Focus on the Primary Goals of the Campaign
Remember, everything about your
landing page should be geared towards getting the user to convert. This
means removing anything that might draw their attention away from your
offer.
Use of White Space
White space is an important part of
email landing page design, so make the most of it. Sometimes, what you
leave off the page is as powerful as what you include. White space
removes congestion and gives the brain space to think. It also forces
the eyes to focus on your offer.
Optimize your Landing Page Space
Make your landing page full width and
height, and remove navigation features. This isn’t to say you should
scrap scrolling completely, but you should take away any visible arrows
or buttons that encourage it.
Simple Design Landing Page Example
Take a look at how the AWeber
landing page keeps things simple and clean. Your focus goes to the
benefit headline and then follows a natural path to the call to action
button:
Create landing page headlines that hit home
The headline on the landing page is
the first thing that visitors see, so it needs to capture their
attention immediately and convey your unique value proposition (more on
this below). If it’s vague or doesn’t convey a benefit, users won’t
stick around long enough to convert.
A landing page will live or die on
the strength of its headline. This is what grabs a visitor’s attention
and compels them to find out more about your offer.
Elements of Headline
A good catchy headline should:
Immediately grab the attention of your visitors
Tell the visitor what your offer is about
Be short and sweet
Once the headline has the user
invested, you can reinforce your message with a powerful subheadline
that persuades them to stay. Your subheadline can go into more detail
than the main headline, but you should limit it to no more than a few
lines of persuasive copy.
Landing Page Examples Focusing on Headlines
This example from Robinhood is as simple yet powerful, due to the strong headline.
Grab attention with landing page images
Humanizing your offer can make it more relatable. One of the easiest ways to do this is using a relevant image.
Images play a huge part in converting visitors. They’re the first
thing that catches the their eye before they read the headline.
Like headlines, use imagery to grab attention. Make them relevant to your product or service.
If you’re offering a product, your imagery should be of the product
If you’re
offering a service, your imagery should relate to what the service is in
a way that paints a positive picture in the mind of the user
Remember that you don’t have long to
make a good first impression. Make sure images are large and
high-quality. Try to stay clear of stock imagery — you don’t want to
show visitors something they may have already seen.
Landing Page Image Example
Teambit is a great example of imagery done well — original illustrations used to capture attention and promote its service:
Talk up the benefits
Let’s face it: the average attention span is shorter than ever – eight seconds, to be exact. So when you craft large blocks of text, you risk lower engagement and fewer conversions.
As a result, you want to write copy that’s easily scannable and
highlights the most important elements. This way, visitors can quickly
determine whether your solution is right for their needs.
The Benefits of Opting-In Need To Be Clear
When it comes to writing out the benefits of your offer, focus on
clarity. Clearly explain how what you’re offering can solve the user’s
problem. But do it in as few words as possible.
Bullet points also allow you to use minimal text and draw attention
because of the way they’re styled. And when you combine bullet points
with white space you increase their effectiveness even more.
Establish your USP
Your USP (Unique Selling Point) is the thing that sets you apart from the competition and the reason why people will choose you over everyone else.
Studies show that you have less than 15 seconds
to capture someone’s attention when they land on your website. That’s
how long they’ll stick around before deciding whether what you’re
offering is right for them. So you need to impress them quickly.
What’s in a Value Proposition?
Value propositions include:
Showing how your product or service compares against a well-known competitor
The ROI that can be achieved
The monetary value of the product and the saving that can be made by signing up now
The success that can be achieved
Making it clear that your offer is free
A guarantee
Define a strong, value-driven USP and build your landing page around
it. You can complement your USP with strong headlines,images, and
relevant copy.
Unique Value Proposition Landing Page Example
Airbnb does this brilliantly. Take a look at how it pairs its USP
(earning money by renting a room in your home) with a value proposition
(how much you could earn by becoming a host).
Make calls-to-action strong and clear
Every element of your landing page is designed to get visitors to notice and click on the call-to-action.
The golden rules of form optimization are to keep it concise and feature a compelling, unique call-to-action.
Standard Call-to-Action Rules
Make it big enough not to be missed
Always use a button. People are conditioned to expect a button, don’t throw a curveball at them
Use a contrasting color that attracts the eye
Use actionable words (e.g. “Get your Free Trial,” “Buy Now,” “Download Now,” etc.)
Powerful CTAs are an important part of successful landing pages. You
don’t want to make visitors guess or even have to think deeply about an
action. The CTA should be obvious and ready to capitalize on your
desired action.
Call-to-Action Example
Include contact information
Contact information tells the visitor that you’re a real company. It
lets them know that there’s someone behind the landing page, which
increases trust.
There are three ways you can do this.
Include a chat pop-up that follows the visitor down the page, making you available to answer any questions
Include a contact form on the page
Include a contact call-to-action that clicks through to a dedicated contact page
Find an easy to use Landing Page Builder
Once we lay out what it takes to create a high converting landing
page, it sounds pretty easy. But if it doesn’t, don’t worry, plenty of
small business owners either don’t have the time or know-how to create a
website landing page to help create additional business opportunities.
Luckily, there are platforms available which make creating and optimizing your landing page super easy.
AWeber’s Landing Page Builder will allow you to create visually
stunning landing pages with our easy drag-and-drop editor. Want
something even easier? No problem, your landing pages could be ready in
minutes. Just choose any of the hundreds of landing page templates
available. And the best part, they’re all free as part of AWeber Free.
