More Traffic

Have you built a wonderful ecommerce site just to see it sit unvisited? Building your site is only half the battle – now you have to drive visitors your way. If you have already utilized SEO and created a social media presence, you may want to consider building a blog into the site. Many ecommerce sites don’t have blogs, and it’s too bad; these companion blogs can be a great way to boost traffic. If you are ready to build a blog for your ecommerce site, here are some tips to keep in mind:
Go For The Soft Sell

Your blog isn’t the place to endlessly expound upon the amazing things that your customers will find over at your ecommerce site. Of course, you should let your readers know when you are running a sale or special promotion (and don’t forget to promote it via social media, too!), but be careful of selling too hard. You want your blog to be a place that people go to for quality content, and no one wants to be sold to 24/7. Make valuable, engaging posts your first priority, and no one will mind the occasional plug for your store. However, feel free to link back to your product pages (within context) from your blog. Those backlinks are SEO gold.
Showcase Your Enthusiasm
The reason you got into business in the first place was because you had an interest in your product. Your blog is the perfect place to let that enthusiasm shine. Share stories about your product or experiences that you’ve had while working in the business. Pay attention to thought leaders in your marketplace, and feel free to link to their blogs or social media sites. For example, if you sell high quality golf balls, you can link to interesting stories in GolfDigest, or write up an opinion piece or two during the Masters Tournament reflecting on the game. The more excited you are about your field, the more excited your customers will be about your product. And who knows, you might even have a little bit of fun!
Create A Conversation
A valuable aspect of creating a blog for your business is that you have opened up an avenue for your customers to share their thoughts. It can be intimidating for a business to open itself up like this, but this access should be viewed as a great opportunity. After all, if there is a problem or a customer is unhappy, don’t you want to know why? Encourage feedback and participation, and then use those comments to grow your business.
Don’t let your ecommerce site go unvisited. Adding a blog can be a great choice on your road to business success.

Stuff Happens… Now What Are You Going To Do About It?

Ok I’m focused and know where I’m going and now I’ve received an email
telling me that my friend Bob Mouncer has been called away to London as
a friend of his is seriously ill. Bob is proof reading my book, my dead
line for getting my book back was Mid-November. My first instinct was to
panic, my second was, there’s nothing that can be done about it, I’ll just
have to deal with it after all nothings set in concrete and the date for
the launch can be moved.

I’ve slept on it and have decided to start reproof reading, this means
learning the ebook software will have to wait. Stuff Happens.

What do you do when you’ve made up your mind to move forward on your
dreams, you start on your goals, and then calamity strikes? You have
to decide to keep your eyes on the prize and not on the problems.
Problems will come, in fact, they must come. That’s how we grow, however,
we must decide whether we will go through the problems or grow through
the problems. That decision will determine our actions. And our actions
will determine our results.

So when life gets in the way as it sometimes does and it knocks you down
and tries to knock you out, Just pick yourself up, Dust yourself down, and
now get moving again in the direction of your goals.

Fellow entrepreneur, we all have challenges on our journey towards our goal
for greater success, but please do not stop. Don’t give up. No matter what
don’t let anything wreck your success. Focus on the prize of achieving the
goal rather than the pain of the problem. In time, you will see your prizes
grow and your problems shrink. Most of all, you will grow yourself and
achieve success.

By the way I’ve had a second email from Bob, telling me he’d taken my
book with him to London and that he thinks we can still achieve by
mid-November deadline what a gem. Oh dear that means I’m back to
getting to grips with  the ebook software which is another challenge.

Albert Einstein once defined insanity as doing the same thing over and
over again and expecting different results.

Do you Have a Problem with Self Confidence?
Self esteem affects your confidence, how important is that? If you want to rise to any challenge you must believe in yourself. Without confidence in what you can do and in who you are what chance do you have of happiness or success?

So what is Self Esteem ?

Self esteem is your opinion of yourself. High self esteem is a good opinion of yourself, and low self esteem is a bad opinion of yourself.

The Importance of Self Esteem
Self esteem is essential and is a cornerstone of a positive attitude towards living. It is very important because it affects how you think, act and even how you relate to other people. It allows you to live life to your potential. Low self esteem means poor confidence and that also causes negative thoughts, which in turn means that you are likely to give up more easily rather than face challenges. In addition, it has a direct bearing on your happiness and wellbeing.

You may well be asking. Why should self esteem matter to me?

I believe self esteem is central to everything we do. It affects your behaviour and thoughts. It changes how you feel about and value yourself, can you imagine anything else so important?

These are some of the reasons I believe why your self esteem needs to be high. High self esteem can be the difference between success and failure, it can affect your thinking causing your outlook to be positive or negative. It affects your confidence, your self image and if you don’t value yourself how will you be able to value others?

Self esteem enables you to have the right attitude to succeed at work.

It also affects your happiness, now what do I mean by that?

Your capability to achieve what you most desire is directly related to your self esteem. Whilst on the other hand, failure is much more likely when you suffer from low self esteem because you will believe others when they tell you why you cannot succeed.


At some time in our life’s most of us have carried around self doubts that have limited our potential. We have doubts on how capable we will be at performing a new job. We are uncertain as to whether we can keep our lover interested, or we have reservation whether we're smart enough to finish that university program. Whatever the case may be, this is where you have to look at your options, a choice needs to be made. You can either let your self doubts control your actions, or you can work through them by improving the things you can change and by accepting those you can't.

We are all capable of removing the negative layers and replacing them with positive ones. Only then can we start working on the most important relationship we'll ever have, the relationship with yourself, it’s important to learn how to value yourself, your ability and your contribution in the world because you are unique.

You have to understand that you cannot value and respect others unless you first value and respect yourself. We also have to learn the art of loving yourself, increase your confidence and fell better about yourself. When you look in the mirror look past the image you first see you are more than that. We all have things about our appearance that we don’t like but do you realise that other people looking at us will see something different.

Self image is another significant part of how you feel about yourself. Low self esteem means that you will have a poor image of yourself and this will result in a loss of confidence. Your social skills will also suffer and you will find it harder to socialise because others will respond negatively to your lack of confidence. You need to see and understand that there are lots of good reasons to feel positive about yourself.


Remember That:

You must learn and understand that you, and only you must believe in yourself. You have to give yourself the credit you deserve for the succesful things that you have done in the past, the succesful things you are doing in the present and the succesful things you know you can and will do in the future.

An important part of  lifting and keeping your  self esteem is by making the commitment to learn something new. Attending  motivational seminars or read a book that will inspire you. There are lots of books and tapes that can help move you forward with your life. By making self development part and parcel of your life you will improve and retain you self esteem and be confident about the present and the future.

Feel the Fear

Fear is a natural human emotion. It is a ‘negative emotion’ though
it can achieve a positive function. The problem is, fear can take on
a life of its own and become an obstacle. It can paralyse and prevent
growth, happiness and success.

Everyone of us has fears on physical, mental, emotional and spiritual
levels, everything from the fear of death, to the fear of humiliation,
loneliness, rejection, and so on. I will explore some of these shortly.

First is the fear of positive things! People can be afraid of love,
success, intimacy, power, money, even happiness, etc

We fear the consequences around them, such as the fear of loss, of
responsibility, of being seen, of not being good enough, of stepping
outside our comfort zone. We ourselves can create resistances to
achieving those things in our lives.

If there’s something you crave for that you don’t have in your life,
a part of you may be resisting it, you may be afraid of it, whether
that’s money, power, visibility, intimacy, etc.

Part 2 Feel the Fear

“Beliefs are the determinant of what one experiences.
There are no external causes.”
- David Hawkins, I: Reality and Subjectivity

Do you even know what your beliefs are?

The first step of your journey in busting your beliefs is to identify them.
So much of what we believe we are not even conscious of, and simply accept
as “the way life is”.

Yet the “way life is” is a direct product of these beliefs. Most of our
beliefs are formed during our childhood years, yet they continue to impact
your reality today. Beliefs don't fade with time. Quite the contrary. If
you don't change them they are compounded by the very experiences they
themselves generate into a damaging catch 22.

You may have been told at school that were dumb, that you’re not going to
amount to anything in your life. Boys or girls may have teased you for
being chubby, thin, plain, pretty, etc. Sound familiar?

You will have a belief about everything in your world! And if you're
experiencing limitation, struggle or hardship anywhere, could be in your
relationships, money, your career, health, etc. you'll find an unhelpful
belief there to be cleared!

10 Tips About Writing Good Ads.

1. Publish a picture of yourself in your ad. This will
show people that you're not hiding behind your web
site and you're not afraid to backup your product.


2. List how many famous or respected people have
purchased your product in your ad. These people
should be fairly known by your target audience.


3. Publish the results of any tests your product has
passed in your ad. Your product may have passed
a durability test, safety test, quality test, etc.


4. Publish the results of any positive surveys you've
taken from your customers in your ad. Just survey
your current customers and list the results.


5. List any publications that have written about your
business in your ad. It could be a product review,
on a top ten list, an article, etc.


6. List any related books that you've written in your
ad. When you list a book(s) you've wrote, it gives
you credibility because it shows you're an expert.


7. Have a professional looking web site to publish
your ad on. When people visit your site and it looks
unprofessional, they'll relate that to your product.


8. Publish any endorsements from famous people in
your ad. Some people will think if a famous person,
enjoys your product, so will they.


9. Use a money back guarantee in your ad. This
will remove the risk from your potential customers
and show them that you stand behind your product.


10. Provide testimonials from satisfied customers in
your ad. The testimonials should include specific
and believable results you customers have received.

I found this in an e-mail and now is on my wall.


There comes a point in your life when you realize:

Who matters.

Who never did.

Who won't anymore...

And who always will.

So, don't worry about people from your past,
there's a reason why they didn't make it to your future.

Build Up Your Self Confidence

Our vulnerability to fear is in opposite proportion to our feeling of self worth.

If you have little self regard and consider yourselves to be worthless and of little value you will be enormously fearful.

On the other hand, if you are genuinely self confident you are less likely to be fearful. If you know that you have dealt effectively with problems in the past you are likely to have self confidence in your ability to deal with new problems.

You have probably acquired your feelings of inadequacy, because the people around you have made you feel inadequate and worthless.

Therefore in order to build up your self confidence you must replace negative, damaging feelings of failure, incompetence and unworthiness with positive feelings of success.

Let’s look at some workable ways in which you can boost your self confidence and eliminate your feelings of inadequacy.

First sit down with a piece of paper and a pencil and write down all the good things you can think of to say about yourself. Imagine that you are preparing a marketing campaign for yourself. This is where you will promote all your good points. You are trying to sell yourself to the world, though really you selling yourself to yourself.

I know that if you are shy and lacking in self confidence you may feel that it is going to be a daunting task. If you feel you are not ready to do it on your own, ask a friend that you trust to sit with you, they always say a job shared is a job halved. Create a list of words between you here is a few to start you of, honest, generous, thoughtful, hard-working, punctual, careful, considerate, moral, kind, ambitious, creative there lots just get your thinking hat on. Write down every good word that you think of, and then go through the list and tick of the ones that you honestly believe apply to yourself.

Read your `advertisement' every day to improve your self-image.

Stop seeing yourself as a failure, substitute your negative thinking with some positive images. You have to learn to see yourself as a success.

Now make a list of all the things you hold dear to you, not things you own but a list of all the intangibles in your life. If your married this would be your partner, your children, plus your integrity, your friends, your interests, your knowledge, your accomplishments and your good memories. These are the real treasures in your life. Next write down all the things for which you are grateful. When you look at your lists you may be surprised to find how many things there are that you can be proud about. These are your blessings.

Write down your top twenty memories, the magical times in your life when you felt at your happiest and calmest. Keep the list somewhere safe and look at it regularly. Keep your lists up dated adding new special memories to your Top Twenty lists as they occur.

Some fears aren't always easy to identify or isolate. If you have a problem which you want to identify try asking yourself `Why?'. That one word is the key to understanding (and overcoming) fear.

So, for example, if you feel `angry' and suspect that your anger may be caused by underlying fear ask yourself: `Why?' And keep asking `why?' until you get some answers.

Fear of the unknown is a powerful driving force. But you can derail this particular fear by always asking yourself. What is the worst thing that can happen in this situation? You will often be surprised to find that the worst really isn't all that bad. Once you know the worst you can make plans accordingly, my mother used to say “Fear comes knocking on the door, Faith answers it and there is no one there”.

My fear was of failure though I sometimes think it is fear of success, two sides of the same coin. How many times have you been on the verge of success and then you have sabotaged yourself, I’ve done it lots of times and in this moment in time I’m finishing my first book and once again the cold icy fingers of the fear of failure is creeping up on me, however I’ve made a plan and put it into action. My plan is written down and it’s now only one month to my book being published each day, I’m facing my fear and doing it anyway. My book may be a success who knows but I’ll have looked fear in the face and know I had nothing to fear but fear it’s self

Fear likes to keep us busy, we do jobs we don’t like because we’re frightened of what might happen if we leave. Fears keep people in relationships which have no future. Fear destroys courage and initiative. Fear of the unknown is one of society's ways of keeping us under control.

Spend As Much Time As You Can With Positive People

Don't spend time with people who are always criticising you, putting you down or looking on the gloomy side of life. Make every effort to make new friends out of people you admire. What's the worst that can happen? a negative response. What's the best that can happen? a great new friend.

Spend time with people who support and encourage you. Don’t put up with people who put you down? Keep away from them. Don't bother to share your life with them unless, of course, they change. Write positive quotes in your diary. Use inspirational books and tapes. Spend the first twenty minutes of your day doing something positive this will set you up for the day. Limit the amount of negative TV you watch, keep up with what is going on in the world by reading a once-a-week news magazine.
Remember that if you send out positive thoughts, you will get positive thoughts back.

 Help Others

One way to promote you own website is to offer to help other website owners by giving away ebooks from you site for them to use on their own sites. Lots of people do not have the time or skills to write and create ebooks to give away to their web site visitors. Giving away ebooks from your web site can easily increase traffic and sales. You could produce promotional ebooks for other people to use so they can promote their web site.

First, you will need to write and create your own ebook to give away to your visitors. If you don't want to write one, you could ask permission to use another writers' articles or material. Be sure to include your text or banner at the beginning of the ebook. Once your ebook is uploaded to your web site you can allow people to download it and give it away to their web site visitors. Your ad will continue to be spread all over the internet.

You can take this strategy one step further to make it even more powerful. Allow people to sign-up to get a version of the ebook with their own text or banner ad included in it. With their own ad included in the ebook, they'll work harder to promote it. That means your ad will be seen by even more people. It's now a win/win situation for you and your visitors!

Work From Home Online - It Beats Having A Second Job

The poor economy has driven some people outside the home to take on a second job. However there are people who are lucky enough to work from home online.

There are many good things to working from home online and we will discuss a few of those in how they beat going outside of the home for a second job.

1. It is great to be able to work from the comfort of your own home. You don't have to get in your car and drive to a job or a second job.

Depending on where you have to drive to it this can be a big time savings. As the price of gas continues to rise, it can also be a big savings for you on gas every month.

2. You get to be your own boss when you work from home online. This is a lot of fun to do for people who are self motivated.

When you have a boss you may not always agree with them. Plus a boss is always bossing you around! This may sound strange but the reality is they are paid to do their job and you have to go along with what they say.

3. At a second job you're going to generally earn a small hourly rate. Many times this is no more than minimum wage.

Working from home online allows you to make as much money as you want. The Internet works 24 hours a day.

This means you can actually earn a very large hourly rate. Plus if you want to earn more money you can build more websites or add more products to the website you already have.

4. A second job can pull you away more from your family. When you work from home online you can schedule your own time to do family things.

Many people choose to work after the kids have gone to bed or in the morning before they wake up. Others prefer work long hours on the weekends and keep their week free for things that come up.

5. Oftentimes people have to take a second job that they really don't like. In certain areas there are not a lot of part-time jobs to choose from.

When you work from home online you can pick how you want to make money. Many people choose to start a blog and make money doing something they enjoy. The same thing is true with niche affiliate marketing.

As you can see to work from home online offers many benefits over having a second job outside of it. You can join millions of other people who are already doing it.

Two more ways to make money.

Lots of people are looking for ways to earn more income online. The first point is finding the right income opportunity.

The Internet offers many opportunities that you can research on your own. In this article we will talk about a few ways you can earn extra income online and you can research the individual opportunities on your own.

1. Network marketing still remains a popular and fun way to develop a walk-away income. Developing an income that pays you over and over is one of the strongest features of network marketing.

There are ordinary people earning money with network marketing that never could do so in the past. There are also Internet marketers who have no background in network marketing using this business model to create a powerful residual income all around the world.

Leveraging your time and duplicating your efforts are two of the drawing cards for network marketing. This is also how it is possible for you to make a residual income as your creative downline of individuals building their own network marketing business.

You get paid every time a product moves through your downline either through wholesale or retail sales. Over time this can turn into a very large residual income.

2. Another way to earn residual income is building a lucrative high traffic blog. This is an excellent way to make money online because you can blog on things that interest you.

You can monetize your blog in numerous ways, but one commonly used is incorporate the Google Adsense affiliate program into all of your blog articles. This is a hands-off way to create income and as you develop a high traffic blog.

Selling advertising to businesses interested in Internet marketing is another benefit of making money with a high traffic blog. This lets you focus on writing blog articles and billing your advertisers once a month.

The residual income part of this comes into play as your blog grows to the point that the traffic is self-sustaining. You can even outsource adding fresh content to blog writers which really frees up your time to enjoy the money you are making.

In summary, these are just two ways to earn residual income on the Internet. Finding the right residual income opportunity in network marketing is something anyone can do.

Building income that pays you consistently with a high traffic blog is a fun way to make money and one that appeals to many Internet marketers.

“Many people make the mistake of thinking that all the challenges in their lives would dissipate if they just had enough money. Nothing could be further from the truth. Earning more money, in and of itself, rarely frees people. It's equally ridiculous to tell yourself that greater financial freedom and mastery of your finances would not offer your greater opportunities to expand, share, and create value for yourself and others.”

Don’t Quit

When things go wrong as they sometimes will
When the road you’re trudging seems all up hill
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And you want to smile but you have to sigh
When care is pressing you down a bit
Rest if you must, but don’t quit

Life is queer with its twists and turns
As everyone of us at sometimes learns
And many a fellow turns about
When he might have won if he’d stuck it out
Don’t give up through the pace seems slow
You may succeed with another blow

Often the goal is nearer than it seems
To a faint and faltering man
Often the struggle has given up
When he might have captured the victor’s cup
When he learned too late when the night came
How close he was to the golden crown

Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt
And you never can tell how close you are
It may be near when it seems afar
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit
It’s when things seem worse that you mustn’t quite

“Do the things you fear, and the death of fear is certain.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson.
Who Matters and Who Never Will.

I found this in an e-mail and now is on my wall.


There comes a point in your life when you realize:

Who matters.

Who never did.

Who won't anymore...

And who always will.

So, don't worry about people from your past,
there's a reason why they didn't make it to your future.

Why would other web masters want to do this? They may want give away a freebie to draw traffic to their website. They also may not have the time, knowledge or skills to give away certain types of electronic freebies from their web site.

Your links will just keep multiplying. When a web master offers your freebie to his or her visitors. Those visitors may decide to also give away your freebie. And so on and soon... The more people that link to your web site the more traffic you'll get. Below are four of the most popular types of freebies given away on the internet to increase traffic. Free Software Offer free software from your web site. The software could be freeware, shareware or demos. Free Online Services Offer a free online service from your web site.

Free Information Offer valuable free information from your web site.

SMILE!

Smiling is infectious; you can catch it like the flu

When someone smiled at me today, I started smiling too

I passed around a corner and someone saw my grin

When he smiled I realised Iʼd passed it on to him

I though about that smile then realised itʼs worth

A single smile, just like mine could travel round the earth

So when you feel a smile begin donʼt leave it undetected

Letʼs start an epidemic quick and get the world infected!

Don’t Quit

When things go wrong as they sometimes will
When the road you’re trudging seems all up hill
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And you want to smile but you have to sigh
When care is pressing you down a bit
Rest if you must, but don’t quit

Life is queer with its twists and turns
As everyone of us at sometimes learns
And many a fellow turns about
When he might have won if he’d stuck it out
Don’t give up through the pace seems slow
You may succeed with another blow

Often the goal is nearer than it seems
To a faint and faltering man
Often the struggle has given up
When he might have captured the victor’s cup
When he learned too late when the night came
How close he was to the golden crown

Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt
And you never can tell how close you are
It may be near when it seems afar
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit
It’s when things seem worse that you mustn’t quite

Dont Give Up

"Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do."

John Wooden

When the opportunity arises to start a work at home business there are several points to consider before beginning. These points can make a work at home business run more smoothly, save money and bring success. Planning is very important when starting a work at home business.

The first thing to consider is what kind of business to start. What kind of products or services will likely be sold? Is it a product you’re selling for someone else or is it your own invention? Is it a service you will perform yourself or are there others that will do this? Will it be an online program? Finding the right niche is very important and everything will revolve around this.

Second, where will this business be located? It is important to have a space for this purpose and only this purpose. Preferably a separate room with a door that can be closed for quiet and privacy. There needs to be enough room for a desk and any other furniture you desire. Also, if there are products that must be kept in your office, make sure you have the room to store them. If you make your own product, make sure you have a space for this purpose so everything can be organized and streamlined. The worst thing is being unorganized. It wastes time and time is money.

Third is budget. What kind of budget can you work with? With every business, whether it be online or brick and mortar, there comes cost. Cost to make the product, advertising, any kind of monthly fee for programs you are involved with, even the internet connection. Consider any kind of furniture or office supplies that are needed. A monthly budget must be laid out so over spending can be avoided. Do not take on more than can be afforded.

Fourth is advertising. Consider the type of advertising you like. Some may like running ads in newspapers and others may prefer solo ads in online ezines. Whatever you decide, make an advertising plan and stick to it. Make sure it is within the budget you set up though.

Time is the fifth point to consider. If a job is still held outside the home until the home business becomes successful, make sure there is sufficient time to work on the home business. Balancing work, home and children is hard enough. Trying to build a home business on top of all that may be challenging. Set a schedule that is realistic and follow it. Don’t forget to schedule some down time too. You’ll need to relax and spend time with family.

After considering these points you can create a plan and start building your own successful work at home business.
