5 Tips For An Effective Landing Page, Which Will Explode Your Article Marketing Sales

2008-04-03T12:26:00.000-07:00

By Juhani Tontti, B.Sc., Marketing

The article marketing forms a decision making process for the reader, where an effective landing page has a very important role.

The effective landing page is the destination to where the content of the article must persuade him by making him to click the link in the Bio Box.

This part of the process is called pre-selling.

The power of article marketing comes from the facts, that it is personal, your own voice and that it reveals the best benefit of an effective landing page...almost.

1. The Article Content Must Raise The Curiosity Of The Reader.

This is the whole idea. A good article marketing content is like a good movie.

You will get the best part little by little, your enthusiasm increases gradually and finally you just have to click the link and you will be on an effective landing page.

It is important, that the whole article marketing process forms a process, which consists of different parts of the same idea.

This means that, if the visitor has found out your article from a directory, the copy pre-sells the idea of the article and the article pre-sells the idea of an effective landing page, where the sales will happen.

2. What Happens, When The Site Visitor Lands To The Landing Page?

We have to remember that before the reader lands, he has read the small text-ad at the directory, the 500 word article copy and he will most probable wait for the final climax from an effective landing page.

Does he get that?

How does this moment of truth work? He has clicked the link full with curiosity, waiting that he will get something top-interesting.

3. Does Another Kilometer Long Sales Page Appear?

Hopefully not. Now it is the time for real action. If you have not yet picked his name and email, this is the right moment.

Give the visitor a very useful gift for his information and you will make yourself possible to keep contact with him later on.

Or you can offer him a trial version of your service or a product. The idea is that the offer must feel very special for the limited time only.

The key issue is however that you will get his information for the later use.

4. Change The Copy Of The Landing Page Regularly.

To increase the power of the effective landing page it is wise to change the copy and the gift or template every now and then, because many visitors are repeated visitors.

By changing the free gift you can give them fresh ideas and a reason to visit again. This is a real customer service.

5. Test Your Landing Pages By The Article Marketing.

To be able to find an effective landing page you can test different versions. Article marketing is a flexible media for this.

You simply use different links in The Bio Box and see how many of your article readers will click the link and how many of them will fill in the optin form.

I want to stress the idea of the first impression. If the visitors first impression is bad, it is almost impossible to change it afterwards.

But another way round, if it is good, the visit experience will be good, which will lead to bigger website sales and repeated visits.

The copy of the effective landing page must be short. You just thank the visitor and want to give him a useful gift. What a visitor must do is only filling his name and email address.

Nothing else. He understands that those are required so that he is able to download something useful.

Top 10 Internet Scams

2008-03-16T17:43:00.000-07:00

Hi guys! pls take time to read some of the common online scams over the net courtesy of poea.gov.ph

1) The Nigerian scam, also known as 419

Most of you have received an email from a member of a Nigerian family with wealth. It is a desperate cry for help in getting a very large sum of money out of the country. A common variation is a woman in Africa who claimed that her husband had died, and that she wanted to leave millions of dollars of his estate to a good business.
In every variation, the scammer is promising obscenely large payments for small unskilled tasks. This scam, like most scams, is too good to be true. Yet people still fall for this money transfer con game.

They will use your emotions and willingness to help against you. They will promise you a large cut of their business or family fortune.

All you are asked to do is cover the endless legal and other fees that must be paid to the people that can release the scammer's money.

The more you are willing to pay, the more they will try to suck out of your wallet. You will never see any of the promised money, because there isn't any. And the worst thing is, this scam is not even new; its variant dates back to 1920s when it was known as 'The Spanish Prisoner' con.

2) Advanced fees paid for a guaranteed loan or credit card

If you are thinking about applying for a "pre-approved" loan or a credit card that charges an up-front fee, ask yourself: "why would a bank do that?". These scams are obvious to people who take time to scrutinize the offer.

Remember: reputable credit card companies do charge an annual fee but it is applied to the balance of the card, never at the sign-up. Furthermore, if you legitimately clear your credit balance each month, a legitimate bank will often wave the annual fee.

As for these incredible, pre-approved loans for a half-a-million dollar homes: use your common sense. These people do not know you or your credit situation, yet they are willing to offer massive credit limits.

Sadly, a percentage of all the recipients of their "amazing" offer will take the bait and pay the up-front fee.

If only one in every thousand people fall for this scam, the scammers still win several hundred dollars. Alas, far too many victims, pressured by financial problems, willingly step into this con man's trap.

3) Lottery scams

Most of us dream of hitting it big, quitting our jobs and retiring while still young enough to enjoy the fine things in life. Chances are you will receive at least one intriguing email from someone saying that you did indeed win a huge amount of money. The visions of a dream home, fabulous vacation, or other expensive goodies you could now afford with ease, could make you forget that you have never ever entered this lottery in the first place.

This scam will usually come in the form of a conventional email message. It will inform you that you won millions of dollars and congratulate you repeatedly. The catch: before you can collect your "winnings", you must pay the "processing" fee of several thousands of dollars.

Stop! The moment the bad guys cash your money order, you lose.

Once you realize you have been suckered into paying $3000 to a con man, they are long
gone with your money. Do not fall for this lottery scam.

4) Phishing emails and phony web pages

This is the most widespread Internet and email scam today. It is a "sting" con game.
"Phishing" is identity and password theft based on convincing emails and web pages. These emails and web pages resemble legitimate credit authorities like Citibank, eBay, or Paypal.
They frighten or entice you into visiting a phony web page and entering your ID and password. Commonly, the guise is an urgent need to "confirm your identity". They will even offer you
a story of how your account has been attacked by hackers to lure you into entering your confidential information.

The email message will require you to click on a link. But instead of leading you to the real login https: site, they will to a fake website. The fake website is often very convincing looking.

You then innocently enter your ID and password. This information is intercepted by the scammers, who later access your account and fleece you for several hundred dollars.

This phishing con , like all cons, depends on people believing the legitimacy or their emails and web pages. Because it was born out of hacking techniques, "fishing" is stylistically spelled "phishing" by hackers.

Tip: the beginning of the link address should have https://. Phishing fakes will just have http:// (no"s" . If still in doubt, make a phone call to the financial institution to verify if the email is legit. In the meantime, never click on the link in any suspicious email.

5) Items for sale overpayment scam

This one involves an item you might have listed for sale such as a car, truck or some other expensive item. The scammer finds your ad and sends you an email offering to pay much more than your asking price. The reason for overpayment is supposedly related to the international fees to ship the car overseas. In return, you are to send him the car and the
cash for the difference.

The money order you receive looks real so you deposit it into your account. In a couple of
days (or the time it takes to clear) your bank informs you the money order was fake and
demands you pay that amount back immediately.

In most documented versions of this money order scam, the money order was indeed an
authentic document, but it was never authorized by the bank it was stolen from.

In the case of cashier's checks, it is usually a convincing forgery. You have now lost the car, the cash you sent with the car, and you owe a hefty sum of money to your bank to cover for the bad money order or the fake cashier's check.

6) Employment scams

You have posted your resume, with at least some personal data accessible by potential
employers, on a legitimate employment site. You receive a job offer to become a
"financial representative" of an overseas company you have never even heard of before.The reason they want to hire you is that this company has problems accepting money from US customers and they need you to handle those payments. You will be paid 5 to 15 percent commission per transaction.

If you apply, you will provide the scammer with your personal data, such as bank account information, so you can "get paid". Instead, you will experience some, or all, of the following:

* identity theft,
* money stolen from your account, or
* may receive fake checks or money orders for payments which you deposit into your account but must send 85 â€“ 95 percent of that to your "employer".

Soon you will owe much money to your bank!

In other instance, you will receive an unsolicited e-mail message from a "multinational company" congratulating you for being selected for a specific job. The e-mail contains details about the "hiring company", the positions needed, and a very enticing compensation package.

You will be asked to send money through Western Union as processing fee or reservation fee.

7) Disaster relief scams

What do 9-11, Tsunami and Katrina have in common? These are all disasters, tragic events where people die, lose their loved ones, or everything they have. In times like these, good people pull together to help the survivors in any way they can, including online donations. Scammers set up fake charity websites and steal the money donated to the victims of disasters.

If your request for donation came via email, there is a chance of it being a phishing attempt. Do not click on the link in the email and volunteer your bank account or credit card information.

Your best bet is to contact the recognized charitable organization directly by phone or their website.

8) Travel scams

These scams are most active during the summer months. You receive an email with the
offer to get amazingly low fares to some exotic destination but you must book it today or the offer expires that evening. If you call, you'll find out the travel is free but the hotel rates are highly overpriced.

Some can offer you rock-bottom prices but hide certain high fees until you 'sign on the dotted line'. Others, in order to give you the 'free' something, will make you sit through a timeshare pitch at the destination. Still others can just take your money and deliver nothing.

Also, getting your refund, should you decide to cancel, is usually a lost cause, often called a nightmare or mission-impossible.

Your best strategy is to book your trip in person, through a reputable travel agency or proven legitimate online service like Travelocity or Expedia.

9) "Make Money Fast" chain emails

A classic pyramid scheme: you get an email with a list of names, you are asked to send 5 dollars (or so) by mail to the person whose name is at the top of the list, add your own name to the bottom, and forward the updated list to a number of other people.

The author of this scam letter painstakingly explains that, if more and more people join this chain, when it's your turn to receive the money, you might even become a millionaire!

Bear in mind that, most times, the list of names is manipulated to keep the top name (the creator of the scam, or his friends) on top, permanently.

As with the previously circulating snail-mail version of this chain, the email edition is just as illegal. Should you choose to participate, you risk being charged with fraud â€“ definitely not something you want on your record, or resume.

10) "Turn Your Computer Into a Money-Making Machine!"

Although not a full blown scam, this scheme works as follows: You send someone money for instructions on where to go and what to download and install on your computer to turn it into a money-making machine -- for spammers.

At sign-up, you get a unique ID and you have to give them your PayPal account information for the "big money' deposits you'll soon be receiving. The program that you are supposed to run, sometimes 24/7, opens multiple ad windows, repeatedly, thus generating per-click revenue for spammers.

In other scenario, your ID is limited to a certain number of page clicks per day. In order to make any money whatsoever from this scheme, you are pretty much forced to scam the spammers by hiding your real IP address with Internet proxy services such as "findnot", so you can make more page clicks.

I won't even go into the discussion about what this program will do to your computer's performance... it is a true tragedy if you get conned into this scam.

Sunday, March 16, 2008
By Eddie G. Alinea, Contributor

THE entire nation comes to a standstill, again, Sunday when its favorite son Manny “PacMan” Pacquiao challenges Mexican Juan Manuel Marquez for the latter’s World Boxing Council super featherweight championship at the posh Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Also at stake in the 12-round classic rematch of their undecided first match four years ago is the vacant Ring magazine super featherweight diadem and the distinction of becoming the undisputed best 130-pound fighter in the world.

A win for the 29-year-old Pacquiao, likewise, will earn him the reputation as the first Filipino and Asian, for that matter, to win a world crown in three different divisions. His fourth, counting his international title unrecognized by any of the alphabet-oriented world boxing bodies. >>Read More

Marquez vs. Pacquiao II: Marquez Training Camp Quotes

marquez pacLOS ANGELES, CA (February 21)—Fundamentally, it is Mexican champion Juan Manuel Márquez's professionalism and dedication to his craft that makes him one of the best in the sport of boxing today. Márquez, one of the last warriors of the great Aztec dynasty of modern boxing, seeks a place in the boxing history, has been proven to be among the elite level in the sport but he attributes his success both in and out of the ring to his tremendous work effort and although successful, still maintains his hunger for fame and glory that keeps him dedicated to his training and committed to his daily regime of hard work and training when preparing for a fight.

"In the ring there is no such thing as an easy fight or a small challenge and I keep that in mind and base my philosophy on that when I am preparing for a fight. If you do not look at boxing that way, with a very serious attitude and dedication to the way a fighter prepares for a fight.. There is no getting around it in boxing and if you do not prepare as you should the opportunity passes you by and all the glory with it.", said Juan Manuel Márquez, from his Mexico City training camp, where is in preparation—with an eye on revenge—for this fight against the extremely talented, and worthy Manny Pacquiao on March 15.
