Relevancy Is Key For Building Home Work Business Opportunities
| Many of the visitors to this post are using the internet to build home work business opportunities and I wanted to take a couple of minutes to help these visitors improve their business.
You see, I’ve heard something over-and-over again, and what I’ve heard is just not true any more. Things are always changing on the internet… and this is one of those things that has changed. |
|
As most of the visitors to this post know, link building is vitally important for increasing your website rankings. Back linking is the heart of off-page optimization. But, how many times have you been told that “a link is a link no matter where it comes from”?
I know that you’ve been told that before…because I’ve been told that before…many times. But, listen to me now…this is not true any more!
Two-to-three years ago, that statement was pretty much true. Any type of link could help your rankings in the search engines. But, the search engine “spiders” are much more intelligent today, and unless those links pointing at your website are relevant, these off-beat type of links could be hurting your rankings.
What do I mean by relevant?
In short, I mean that the website that places a link to your site should be related to your website…it should complement it and not be unrelated.
Take this example. Let’s say that you have a website that is selling red widgets. Well, it would make good sense if another website that is selling red widget accessories links to your site. Or, if your site is promoting a weight loss program, it would make sense if a site that sells vitamins links to your website. But, it would make no sense if a porn site or gambling website were to link to you.
Search engine spiders have matured and now know this. In fact, when they find these type of unrelated links, they are likely to do one of the following three things:
1. Ignore the link…and, not count it at all…you’ve wasted your time.
2. Google might consider your “theme” to be related to the “theme” that is linking to you. So, if a porn site links to you, your rankings in the porn site’s “theme” may go up and your rankings for what you’re really trying to rank for may go down. You don’t want this!
3. Google may consider that you’re just trying to “pull a fast one” over the search engines, and Google may black-list your website. Oouch! If this happens, you’ll never get any rankings.
So, here’s what you need to keep in mind: When running your link building campaigns, keep your visitors in mind. What kind of visitors do you want coming to your site? Do you want visitors to porn sites coming to your website? If not, keep your link building activities away from these types of sites.
Now, How Do You Find Good Sites Related To Your Own Theme?
Here are several easy ways:
1. Do a search in the major search engines using your niche keywords as the search term. Look at the websites that the search engines return and copy the URL’s into a spread sheet. Rinse and repeat.
2. Visit link directories, such as DMOZ, and search for your niche in their listings. All link directories are broken down into categories…just look for your own category.
3. Go to Yahoo’s search engine and type in the following : LinkDomain:http//www.YourCompetitorsWesite.com. Yahoo will return you a list of links that are directed at your competitors website. Look for related links and see if you can also get a back link from them.
Back linking is a time consuming process and now that it’s even more important to find relevant back links for building your home work business opportunities, it now takes even longer to do it. Let’s say that you want to build 50 back links and it takes you 10 minutes to find and build a relevant link…it will take you over 8 hours of manual work to do it.
Well, this brings me down to the last thing I wanted to mention in this posting. There is an easier way to do it.
LINKASSISTANT is a FREE TOOL that you can download to help you with this link building process. After downloading it, point to TOOLS…-> Find new link partners…and take a look at the different options you have. Among them are:
1. Find relevant sites to your own niche keywords by doing a keyword search. Quickly, it will return hundreds of sites.
2. Using LINKASSISTANT you can scan a complete website and find all the links pointing to it. You can also do this by page or category.
3. Best of all: Some sites provide you with a link submission form where you fill out a form with your website’s URL and where you have provided a link to them, and they in return will link to you. With LINKASSISTANT, you can automatically find these linking forms in sites related to your niche. How cool is that?
If you don’t want this FREE TOOL, go ahead and continue doing back linking manually…it’s the worst part about building websites and taking advantage of home work business opportunities. But, I know if you would only try it, you would really like it!
An Internet Income Opportunity In Social Media Marketing
| I’m really excited about telling the visitors to this blog about this latest internet income opportunity. I’m so excited, in fact, that I have also decided to sign up for this new course that I’m going to tell you about. | 
|
You see, a few weeks ago, I told all of you about a training program that I’m currently involved in. That program is called Power 3 Marketing and I wrote about it in my article titled Home Work Business Opportunities Found.
Now, I’m not going to go into any detail on that course…although I will tell you that course is about helping local offline businesses find more customers by improving their online marketing efforts. But, you see, that’s why I’m excited about this latest course that I’ve found.
This new course is called Let’s Get Social. Basically, this new course teaches you how to become a Social Media Marketing Manager. It teaches you how to promote a business and it’s products online by using social media markets such as Twitter, Facebook, and Linkedin. This fits right in with what I’m already studying in the Power 3 Marketing course…it just takes it to a new level!
Watch this video on this new internet income opportunity and you will see what I mean:
Pretty cool, huh?
I’m not going to call this playing around, but it is a cool way to create your own business and work out of your own home. Or, if you already have your own business, this course could certainly help you promote your business and give you an advantage over your competitors.
As I’ve already said, I’m really excited about this new course. The Power 3 Marketing course has enabled my husband and I to start our own business (if you want to see it, click here), but this new Let’s Get Social course just broadens our internet income opportunity.
The Best Network Marketing Internet Business Training Program
| This article that I am posting today is not for everyone…this article is intended for only those readers that truly want to be successful with online marketing. The network marketing internet business training that I’m proposing that you should seriously consider is not free, in fact, many will tell you that it costs a lot of money. | 
|
Now, I’m not going to say that it’s a lot of money, but it is a sizable amount of change. But, when you find out what you can learn from this program and how much money you can potentially earn from successfully using the things that you learn in this training program, the cost for this program is nothing…it just becomes a cost for running you own business. Did you read that correctly? Your own business!
Yes, you can learn how to make your own business from this training program. You can run this business from your own home and, if you wanted to, right from your kitchen table. You decide when you want to work, how much you want to work, and how much money you want to make. It will become your business and you can do with it whatever you want!
The training program that I’m talking about is called SEO Book (and, yes, that is my affiliate link for that program…if you take my advice and sign-up, I would earn a commission…I am also an online marketer and a member of SEO Book).
I’m not going into a lot of detail about what you learn at SEO Book, you can click on that link and find out for yourself. But, what I will tell you is that it will make you an expert at search engine optimization (SEO). And, as most of you know, SEO is the name of the game in getting free traffic to your websites.
One of my fellow associates at SEO Book produced an excellent video describing why he likes this network marketing internet business training program. Rather than me taking the time to make a new video, watch this video and he will tell you why he likes it:
Jason, thanks for that video…even though you didn’t keep it under 7 minutes!
SEO Book is a high-quality service. They are not a Wal-Mart type service…they limit their membership to 1,000 members so that they can maintain a high-quality membership community.
I am assuming that since you’ve read this far into this article, that you would seriously like to have your own successful network marketing internet business. If that’s true, seriously consider on learning how to do it with SEO Book.
Create An Internet Income Opportunity and Replace Yourself
| If you’ve been working on the internet for any length of time, you have probably found that creating an internet income opportunity is not as easy as many internet gurus claim it is. And, once you do start making money, you spend much more time maintaining that income stream than what those same internet guru’s told you that they spend. | 
|
I remember when I first got into internet marketing (about 3 years ago), I bought several online courses and I was led to believe that I could quickly learn to generate a six-figure income online and only have to work 15-20 hours per week.
Well, I’m not going to tell you that all those stories were lies…it just wasn’t totally true…they were only half-truths.
You see, I am now making a decent living on the internet, but it took me almost three years to learn how to do it. OK…so maybe I’m a slow learner. I’m sure there have been others that have learned to make a decent income on the internet in less than 3 years, but I’m not one of them.
So, you might be asking, how am I making my money on the internet, now? Well, I wrote an article on this blog a few weeks ago describing the methods that I use. If you haven’t read that article, you can read it by going to, ” Let P3 Marketing Be Your Internet Income Opportunity“.
Basically, I now help local offline businesses find more customers by helping them improve their online presence. This is a booming business in today’s poor economy.
The biggest half-truth, however (getting back to my original story), was the amount of work that I was having to do on a daily basis…I was working nearly 70 hours per week to earn this income.
Business was booming, but so were my work hours! I was searching for clients, telephoning potential clients, meeting with clients, making websites, creating ads, writing articles, submitting to search engines and article directories, and on and on and on. I was doing all the work and there was too much of it…I had to do something different!
That’s when I remembered something that I had seen before…John Jonas’s website called Replace Myself. This website is an outsourcing website.
If you’re not familiar with outsourcing websites, basically these are places where you can outsource work that you have that needs to be done to contractors on the internet. For example, if you need an article written or a company logo designed, these outsourcing websites provide contractors who will perform the work for a pre-established fee.
There are many of these outsourcing websites out there such as Elance and Freelancer, but the one I like best is Replace Myself.
Why? Because if you hire a contractor at most of these outsourcing websites, once they finish the job that you have them do, they start working for somebody else and they’re no longer available to you. If you have spent any time and training on getting them to do a job the way you want it done (and this is usually the case), all that time and training is wasted.
|
Replace Myself is different. This site encourages you to hie full-time contractors who will grow and become more valuable to your business. They learn how YOU want the job done and they will eagerly repeat that work! |
What’s even better, yet, is that the contractors at Replace Myself are all Filipinos and Filipinas…most of them speak and write in english and most of them are college educated. What’s more…many of these educated workers can be hired for $250-$350 per month. Imagine getting 160-170 hours of your work done for you for less than $2 per hour?!
Twelve years ago, I worked in th Philippines for 1-1/2 years. I managed a large manufacturing operation over there. While there, I learned how hard working, well educated, and how devoted these Filipinos are to work with. Unfortunately for them, many of them are not allowed to leave their country and the jobs are scarce. That’s why I didn’t hesitate to hire one through Replace Myself.
I have one of these contractors working full-time for me now, and maybe, as business continues to grow, it will be two.
Remember the last half-truth I told you about earlier…that you would only have to work 15-20 hours per week…and still make a six-figure income? Well, this is how those internet gurus are doing it. They concentrate on the “MEAT” of the business and let the outsourcing contractors do the daily work.

The Best Internet Income Opportunity For Newcomers
| Are you new to internet marketing? Or, have you tried it and just not making any money. If you fall into either one of these groups, let me show you the best internet income opportunity for newcomers. | 
|
There are a lot of ways to make money on the internet. You can sell other people’s products as an affiliate marketer or you can make and sell your own products. Or, make your own products and let other people sell them for you.
You can sell products by advertising them on places like Google Adwords, 7Search, Miva, adBrite and a host of other advertising platforms. Or, you can make your own websites, drive loads of free traffic to them, and sell products directly off of them.
Another great internet income opportunity is to write articles, submit them to places like Ezinearticles, Squidoo, Hubpages, Buzzle, and a host of other article directories and sell products from links that you have in these articles.
There are lots of ways to make money on the internet. But, a lot of people try and just don’t cash in. And, do you want to know why most of them fail? Because they haven’t learned the proper way on how to do it…it’s as simple as that!
Yes, you can teach yourself a lot, but until you learn the best places to advertise, the best ways to make a website that drives traffic, the best article directories to submit to, the best products to sell on the internet…you are going to waste a lot of time…time and no money.
That’s why so many people give up on trying to create an internet income opportunity.
Don’t try to learn this business by yourself…join Wealthy Affiliates. Learn the business from the best group of internet marketers that is out there.
Yes, it will cost you money…I think their price has gone up to $47 per month. But, it’s worth every penny of it to get to the inside secrets.
For more detailed information on the Wealthy Affiliates, read my article Use Wealthy Affiliate To Build an Internet Income Opportunity.
So, if you are a newcomer to this line of business, please take my advice if you’re searching for an internet income opportunity.
Let P3 Marketing Be Your Internet Income Opportunity
| Affiliate marketing is a tough way to create an internet income opportunity. Selling other people’s products online takes a lot of time and you have to learn so many different things to do it properly. | 
|
Yes, I now make my living by doing affiliate marketing. I’ve been doing it for 2-1/2 years now and when I first started out, it wasn’t easy. It took me months to make my first sale online. And, several more months to make my second sale.
Now, I make sales daily, but that’s because I learned how to do it. I learned what to sell, where to sell it, and what to do and what not to do. Creating an internet income opportunity online has been fun, but not easy.
Many of you have probably been in this same boat and many of you are probably in that same boat. You’re working hard, but the sales are slow and you’re not making much money.
Do you want to change that? Do you want to start making money? If so, let me show you how.
If you’ve been working online then you have skills that most people don’t possess. These skills can make you a lot of money.
It’s no secret that the economy in today’s market is in the “tank”. And, most economists are forecasting that it’s going to stay that way for years to come. That’s sad, but I believe it. But, that’s where you and I can put our skills to use and make a good deal of money.
In today’s economy, the people that are hurting most are the small, local business owners. They are dying to try to find a few new customers. A few new customers could help them save their business. This is where you can use your skills – help local businesses find new customers online.
When was the last time you used the Yellow Pages to find a local business? When was the last time you used your local newspaper to find a business – besides, maybe, a grocery store?
It’s probably been a long time since you’ve done either one of these things. That’s because most people go online to find local businesses. Rather it be a restaurant, an auto repair shop, or a doctor – most people search the internet to find what they’re looking for.
The problem is for most businesses, especially the small ones, is that they either don’t have a website or, if they do, they don’t know how to get their website on Google’s Page 1. And, if they’re not on Page 1, their website will probably never be found. That’s how you can make a lot of money – help local businesses get found on the internet.
Now, I know that if you’ve read this far into this article, you probably already have much of the knowledge and skills needed to help others get their websites onto Page 1. But, if you want some additional help and training on exactly how to do it, I recommend that you take a look at the Power 3 Marketing course.
This course was put together by Jennifer Ledbetter (for those that know her – this is the PotPieGirl) and David Bocock. I’m very familiar with Jennifer and I know that anything she’s connected with is first class. Now, I was not familiar with David, but I will say his training videos are excellent!
There are three versions or sections in this course. There is the P3 Basic Training, the P3 Gold Training, and the P3 Elite Members Private Training.
The P3 Basic Training is FREE. I would recommend anyone even thinking about taking advantage of this internet income opportunity to grab onto this training – you can’t beat the price!
The P3 Gold Training is some outstanding training showing you not only how to get a client’s website onto Google’s Page 1 for local search results, but also how to create rent-a-websites that point to a client’s website. There are over 60 videos in this part of the training that will show you how to get on Page 1 within a few days.
The P3 Gold Training does cost money – I believe it’s $77. An excellent buy, but if you’re going to go this far, the P3 Elite Membership is even better!
In the P3 Elite Membership area, you receive another 40 training lessons and you get access to a very active P3 Elite Membership Forum. What’s great about this forum is that if you have any problems or questions, you can get those problems solved and questions answered by other P3 Elite Members. Jennifer and David both participate in this forum, also.
Another great thing about becoming a P3 Elite member is that you’re taught to make another two very special types of websites that can get ranked on Google’s Page 1 for local searches within days. And, they are so easy to make – you won’t believe it.
Last week, I made 11 of these special websites and 7 of them are already on Google’s Page 1. How awesome is that?!
P3 Elite Membership costs a one-time fee of $97 and to stay a member it costs $47/month. For this price, you maintain membership to the P3 Elite members-only forum, personal access to a P3 Elite indexing and article site, and continued access to all training modules.
I’ve joined the P3 Elite Membership because I know that I can make as much money or more acting as a consultant for local businesses as I have with my affiliates sales.
Yes, I still plan on doing affiliate marketing, but I can do both! And, I decided not to pass up on this internet income opportunity. If you think you might have interest in doing this, you shouldn’t pass up on it, either!
(**Update 02/14/2011 – I’ve made another posting that goes into more details on what you get get in the P3 Training Modules…read Home Work Business Opportunities Found)

One More Internet Income Opportunity Marketing Strategy
| I’ve shown visitors a number of internet income opportunity marketing strategies, but here’s one more that I want to show you.
Choosing the right keywords for search engine optimization purposes is so important. Before choosing my keywords, I |
|
not only check the competitiveness and the search volume level for these keywords, but I also check their likelihood of being financially viable.
By that, I mean, what is the likelihood that the keywords that I have chosen will make me money. Some niches have a lot of visitors, but the visitors just don’t buy many products.
To determine this, I do TWO things (and, you must do them both!).
First, I go to Google’s Search Based Keyword Tool. All I have to do is enter in my proposed keywords and click “Find Keywords”. The tool returns to me the keywords that I entered with a suggestion from Google on how much I would have to spend on Adwords advertising if I used that keyword.
If Google returns to me a price of $.50 or higher, that’s good. Why? Because that means their is a lot of competition on Google Adwords for that keyword. That means that we are in a market that is selling products and those particular keywords are highly sought after.
Look at the picture below:
I entered “online marketing course” into Google’s tool, and see what I got? Google is suggesting that if I wanted to use that term in a Google PPC ad, I was going to have to pay somewhere around $12.09 to use that word. That means a lot of people are willing to spend a lot of money to use that word.
Now, I would hesitate to use that word if I was trying to sell on Google Adwords (because it’s so high!), but if were to use that word in an article marketing campaign, it’s an internet income opportunity waiting to happen.
But, wait, remember I said there are TWO things that needed to be done.
Secondly, I would now enter this same proposed keyword term into Bing’s Online Commercial Intention Tool. This tool will tell you if that term is likely to be used by buyers wanting to buy or by just visitors looking for information.
I entered “online marketing course” and look at what I got:
The tool returned to me a “Commercial Intention” of .69. That’s good! Anything above .50 is considered good.
We have now used two tools to measure the commercial viability of a proposed keyword phrase – and, we’ve had good results with both.
That’s good! Creating websites that rank or being successful at article marketing takes a lot of time. The last thing you want to do is spend weeks or months of time creating links and backlinks to keywords that don’t sell.
Choose your keywords wisely. Take the time to do these kind of checks on all of your proposed keywords. Your keywords must be commercially viable to create an internet income opportunity that works for you.
Viral List Building An Internet Income Opportunity
| Any experienced marketing guru will tell you that “the money is in the list”. If you really want to build an internet income opportunity that repeatedly provides you a lucrative income, you have to have a list of | 
|
subscribers that you can communicate with on a regular basis via email.
Building that list is the hard part.
Generally, something is offered for free if they submit their name and email address. Once they have “opted-in”, an autoresponder provides them their free gift and now they are on that marketer’s email list.
Finding a free gift that is attractive to a large number of visitors to a website is important. Most websites provide a free written report such as a Squidoo Guide or a guideline on SEO. These are helpful, but not hardly unique.
I think a much more attractive free gift can be found in a product called Easy Video Producer. This product allows you to produce free videos, which in turn, you can offer it on your website as a free gift to your visitors if they opt-in.
What’s neat about the Easy Video Producer is that it builds your opt-in list virally. In other words, not only do you get the email address of the person that opts-in from your website, but you will also get the email address from people who opts-in from your visitors website. Now, how neat is that?!
Your internet income opportunity will quickly grow! And, it doesn’t cost you anything – except, you do have to provide a web cam.
The software in Easy Video Producer is so easy to use. Watch this quick video to get an idea:
See how easy that is?
Also, what’s neat about using video to build your lists is that videos make you more personable. Visitors can put a “face” on your website and are more comfortable not only with opting-in, but also with doing many of the other things that you may ask them to do on your website.
So, if you haven’t done it already, start building a list to take advantage of an internet income opportunity. And, the easiest way to do that is with the Easy Video Producer software.
The Relationship Between Internet Income Opportunity And LSI
| If you are online trying to take advantage of an internet income opportunity using free traffic, this is a very important post for you to read. Recently, Google changed how they rank websites and most | 
|
webmasters are unaware of these changes.
Up until recently, webmasters relied on keyword density and links to get their sites ranked. This led to a lot of “cheating”. Webmaster’s were not that concerned about the quality of their website’s content, they were more concerned about the number of links they could get to point to their websites.
After all, that was one of the major factors that the Google “Bots” used to help them rank websites. And, Google knew this was a major flaw.
That’s why Google recently changed their ranking algorithms.
Google wants visitors to their search engine to be pleased and quickly satisfied with the information that is returned to them. So, Google had to find another way to rank sites based on quality and relevance other than just the number of links. To do this, Google started using latent semantic indexing or LSI.
LSI is a complex mathematical formula and I don’t want to go into too much detail on how exactly it works (if you want to know more about it, read Wikipedia). The important thing for you to understand is that Google is now using it as a major tool to help it rank articles and websites.
Watch this video for more info on LSI and how it works:
In a nutshell, LSI takes the keywords that you use in your articles and websites and compares them to the remainder of the words in your articles and websites, and looks for words that should be related.
If the Google “Bots” find those related words, they are likely to give higher rankings to your articles and website. If not, your rankings will be lower.
So, when you write an article to take advantage of an internet income opportunity, you need to be sure that your article is full of LSI words. This will give your article higher rankings and more free traffic.
How do you find out what LSI words are for the keywords that you are using?
Use this FREE TOOL: http://www.lsikeywords.com
That’s right, the tool is FREE to use and you don’t even have to give your email address.
Just remember, when writing articles to take advantage of an internet income opportunity using free traffic, rankings mean everything and that free tool will definitely help you!
