How I Made $2200 With A $55 Ezine Ad
I love waking up to orders! Because while you Sleep they are being generated in cyberspace. And when the orders amount to over $2,000, Wow!
I have found the best ways of generating traffic and qualified traffic to your web site, affiliate program or mlm program, are:
1. Ezine ads
2. Pay per Click Search Engines 3. Links
4. Submission Services (paid)
I have placed many ezine ads giving me good to abysmal results. The absolute best was one in Hiddensecrets that goes out to 300,000 subscribers and they were offering a special rate of $55 to Go4Millions members. http://www.roibot.com/w.cgi?R38406_g4m
I jumped on that! And 'voila' the sales flew in. I sold 42 "Incredible eBook Packages" for a gross profit of $2100! With a click thru rate of 5-7%! That was like hitting the jackpot. What fun! Waking up to 10-12 orders every day for a week.
To conduct an effective ezine ad campaign the first thing you need to do is research the ezine and determine if;
1. Is the readership targeted to your market (you don't want to place an ad with a newsletter for pregnant moms when your product is rollerskates :-o)
2.Make sure the subscriber base is what they say it is. Not everyone is as honest as we are :o)
3.Some publishers inflate their #'s so you pay a higher ad rate (can't believe someone would do that, my #'s are validated by opt in lightning automatically, http://hop.clickbank.net/?books4u/lightning. 4. Normally the longer it takes to get your ad placed, the better the outlook. That means the ezine is popular with advertisers, and obviously they are getting good results.
There are a few places you can do ezine research. Here are some:

The one I love because you can search by name, title, # of subscribers is Topezineads. You also get a slew of very good ebooks and can make referral money as well. http://www.roibot.com/w.cgi?R38406_top
The only way to advertise in an ezine is either a solo ad or a top sponsored ad. The latter is placed at or near the top of the ezine getting good exposure. If you have your own ezine do ad swaps. Even if the other publisher has more subscribers you can offer to publish his/her ad more to compensate. A good place to swap ads is at http://www.topica.com/lists/ezineadswap and you can get a free copy of 'Ezine Ad Swap Tracker' at: http://www.homebasedprofit.com/
Remember that the readers have to see an ad many times before they react. Place multiple ads in the same ezine if you are getting decent results. Experiment with different headlines. Sometimes the headline is all you need to change. Test, test and test some more! I use roibot for all my tracking and its great. http://www.roibot.com/r.cgi?R38406_campaign Not just for tracking links, but use their autoresponder's, newsletter creator, form integration and more.
The best products or services to advertise in ezines is a free report, ecourse or some other high quality product… egad's not just another ebook!
Put these reports/ecourses on an autoresponder with multiple messages and 'voila' you have a 24/7 automated marketing system. Watch out! You might have tons of orders! Capture they subscriber with multiple messages, sprinkled with your ads...of course!
