No-Cost Web Page Leads For Your New Complementary Therapy Business, Again And Again
If you're wanting low cost ways to generate clients for your new complementary therapy business, especially if it has an online shopping cart, the best way is Article Marketing because it's free and the traffic keeps coming, year after year, from each article. So if you are looking for product launch ideas read on.
Article Marketing isn't an instant way to get started online, but it's a low-cost, risk-free strategy anyone can adopt. First let's compare it with some different ways to get online traffic. Let's take the example of promoting a new shopping cart.
A traditional way of bringing customers to your new website, taught by some on-line marketing training, is to contact other website owners requesting a link exchange. This can work, but it's a slow process and you need to be careful who you target. For example, if I sell dog collars by post I may be happy to do a link swap with someone who runs dog training classes, but not someone who is promoting dog collars.
Another method is posting on forums in your niche, with your website in your signature. Also effective, but time-consuming.
In theory a Pay-Per-Click (PPC) campaign is quick to set up and you could see traffic very quickly. In practice unless you're experienced at these campaigns, you can spend ages testing for the best settings and exhaust your budget without making a single sale. I did! And being of a suspicious nature , I often wondered how many clicks were by my competitors, to use up my cash!
Other online methods include FFA (Free For All) sites and traffic exchanges where you view other people's sites, in return for them viewing yours. This strikes me as a waste of time. I want to sell, not buy, so why sit bored, clicking on other people's sites so that they can sit bored to tears clicking on my web-page? They probably never even look at my advert. With tabbed browsers the temptation is just to open the next tab to click on the advert, without reading the adverts.
These methods are time-consuming and ineffective for a serious product launch.
Offline promoting methods include networking to swap cards at business clubs. Time-consuming, costly and again in general, others are there to sell, not to buy.
In contrast, article marketing targets people who have suggested that they are interested in the topic your website targets. Choose the correct keywords and visitors will be actively looking to buy, not sell.
The idea of article marketing is that you write an article and submit it, with your website URL, to article directories from which publishers can take articles for blogs etc so long as they include your website details with your article. Then when interested parties read your article, they can click onto your website.
The article you have produced in an hour or so stays (theoretically) online forever and you have the potential to receive targeted traffic from it in perpetuity.
For example, I submitted an article in October 2005 and 4 years later it is still generating traffic, with no extra effort, and had received 28,897 lifetime views, with 5,961 clicks through to my website. How much would that have cost by PPC? Another benefit is that the best article directories send you a report showing the keywords on which your article is being found.
In my opinion article marketing has so many advantages over alternative methods that I cannot imagine why it would not be one of your marketing strategies.
Much of my success with article marketing was learned through trial and error. With a little free, or low cost, training I would have realized the potential much earlier.
