My 2 Cents Worth - Editor's Chit-Chat
Hi All! Welcome to another Sunday with yours truly and thanks so much for letting me be a small part of your day. :~) If you're new today, a warm welcome to you. I hope you'll enjoy the issue. This past Tuesday was my birthday and my son's birthday. My daughter took us out to dinner at the restaurant where she works. I knew she wouldn't let us get away without embarrassing us somehow, though. First she decorated the table and tied balloons to our chairs. Then she gave me a card that caused other restaurant customers to turn their heads. The picture on the front is a woman mopping sweat off her forehead. Inside it says "Welcome to the hot flash years" and it plays music - "Disco Inferno" - to be exact. LOL And, of course, when we ordered dessert every server who was working came out singing and clapping. My son tried to play it off like it was only MY birthday, not his, by clapping along with them and pointing to me. He was as embarrassed as I was, but he doesn't turn red in the face like I do. LOL Oh, well, it only happens once a year. All I can say is thank goodness it was a Tuesday and the place wasn't really packed with people like it would have been on the weekend. I know, I know... it's all in good fun. LOL And speaking of my birthday, if you missed the Birthday Sale and all the party favors, you need to get over there now. The page will be dead at midnight tonight.

Feature Article
Three Killer And Profitable Traffic Sources By Jim Sansi It seems these days that everybody is looking for the best way to drive traffic to their website. From paid sources, social networks, forums, blogs and other sites there are a myriad of ways to accomplish this task, but what techniques really work when it comes to making sales? In this article I am going to look at some of the better sources of converting traffic currently available on the net. Pay Per Click Pay per click advertising is by and far the most popular and costly methods for traffic in existence. Simply fund your account, enter in some keywords and you can start getting massive amounts of traffic in hours. To really achieve good results using PPC without blowing the bank is to research large long tail keywords lists with hundreds and thousands of keywords. It is also a good idea to shop around with different providers and to test several versions of your sales offer with cheaper traffic. Web 2.0 And Social Networking Web 2.0 and social sites seem to be all the rage anymore. While social networking sites can drive mind boggling amounts of one time traffic it is important that you carefully measure just how profitable it is and how well those visitors convert into sales. All too often people get lured into looking at the overall visitors that can be delivered from web 2.0 sources and neglect to realize the traffic simply does not convert and ends up costing you money. Turn Articles Into Traffic Article marketing is a tried and true method that always results in good traffic and most importantly good sales conversions. This is due to the fact that potential prospects share an interest in the article they are reading and are then warmed up to your offer when clicking on a link in a by-line or about the author box. Another huge benefit of article marketing is that it helps build good quality one way links back to your sites which help with search engine rankings. Above all it is very important to keep in mind that no matter what traffic generation techniques you are using you should always be carefully tracking each of your traffic sources to make sure that it is profitable otherwise you can end up feeding an alligator which delivers low quality traffic that won't convert. With the availability of software tools on the market today like Google analytics this task is incredibly easy to do. ------------------------------------------- Uncover Jim Sansi's best methods for getting articles in front of real readers that will drive massive amounts of traffic at the following URL: http://www.articlesintotraffic.com

Grins 'n Giggles
This was taken from a newsletter that I receive each day. Get daily Internet tips, tricks, jokes and information: http://www.resource-a-day.net/member/index.cgi?gifts_n_things2002 A beautiful young blonde woman boards a plane to LA with a ticket for the coach section. She looks at the seats in coach and then looks ahead to the first class seats. Seeing that the first class seats appear to be much larger and more comfortable, she moves forward to the last empty one. The flight attendant checks her ticket and tells the woman that her seat is in coach. The blonde replies, "I'm young, blonde and beautiful, and I'm going to sit here all the way to LA." Flustered, the flight attendant goes to the cockpit and informs the captain of the blonde problem. The captain goes back and tells the woman that her assigned seat is in coach. Again, the blonde replies, "I'm young, blonde and beautiful, and I'm going to sit here all the way to LA." The captain doesn't want to cause a commotion, and so returns to the cockpit to discuss the blonde with the co-pilot. The co-pilot says that he has a blonde girlfriend, and that he can take care of the problem. He then goes back and briefly whispers something into the blonde's ear. She immediately gets up, says, "Thank you so much," hugs the co-pilot, and rushes back to her seat in the coach section. The pilot and flight attendant, who were watching with rapt attention, together ask the co-pilot what he had said to the woman. He replies, "I just told her that the first class section isn't going to LA."
Expert Advice
Each week I'll publish some tips or advice. I'll try to cover every subject I can think of, but if you have any suggestions, please send them to me at the e-mail address listed below. 3 Sales Page Strategies to Get Your Visitors to Buy Now 1. The "Confident Sell Out" Strategy The "this product will definitely sell out..." strategy tells your prospects that you are confident that your product won't last long. Many people are influenced by confidence. You can show even more of your confidence by telling them the approximate timeframe when your product will sell out. 2. The "Lock It In" Strategy The "lock in your one time price now and avoid any monthly fee..." strategy tells your prospects that if they purchase your product now, they will avoid paying an ongoing fee to use it in the future. If they are remotely interested in your product, they'll likely buy it right away because most people hate recurring fees. You could even give them a date when you will switch over your product to a subscription product. 3. The "Left Behind" Strategy The "tons of people are jumping on the bandwagon, are you being left behind?..." strategy tells your prospects that they could be missing out on an opportunity to reach their goals with your product. You can remind them that they may have already heard about it on TV, in print publications, on the radio or on the Internet. People don't like to miss out on things so they're likely to buy your product if they feel like they're the only ones who haven't tried it yet.
