Getting everybody to your website is the first problem, but acquiring people to
recommend you, as to building a strong reputation on line is another
thing all together.

1) Only do business with those that follow this rule, "The customer
is always right!"

2) Follow that rule when you conduct business even when the
customer does not appear to be right!

3) Do not act spontaneously when it comes to selling ! Always
research the business , check their references and do not even bother to
read the testimonials. Testimonials have to be gooooood and might easily
be staged.

4) Never spend what you do not have, in other words do not count the
chickens before they hatch.

5) Always take half of your profits and reinvest it into advertising and
marketing.

6) Be patient. Nothing assessment of value while even happens over night!

7) If something sounds too effective to be true, it might or may not be. Be
wise and research, put on your thinking caps and be a detective if you
must, but do not always assume that things that sound too grand to be
true are too dazzling to be true. Take the lotto for example, all you have
to do is spend $1 and you can get $1,000,000 back for doing nothing at
all? So just be wise and research.

8) Never get to the point where you think you know it all. There are
always new an better places around to sell with and more profitable
programs to join.

9) One key to promoting is this, go with the big guys! If you understand a
big reputable company is selling at a certain place, you can be
assured they have utilized their resources and researched that
selling business thoroughly, and hay, they are successful for a
reason, so sell where they do! Lets take Microsoft for example, if
they advertise in the paid classifieds at Yahoo, then I say, "Go for
it!" That is one thing I always do. I first look for logos or
businesses that are familiar to me when I come to a site, if I do not
see any, I leave.

10) Best of all to be successful you must remember this, there are
millions of people on line branding their business. Many of them are
advertising the identical type of business that you are selling . Go far
away from them and sell in a place that is not being used for that
purpose by other many people in that identical field.

All of those FFA backlink pages, people do not read the links there, they
place links there, that is why they are there, to market not to buy.
One last thought, if you want to know where not to market follow this
rule, when you see a link or a banner that says you can market on
their site for free of cost, than you go there and are bombarded by
advertisements, do you read them? No you do not , neither will anyone
else. Be smart.
