The Single (buy traffic) Biggest Reason Why Most Internet Marketers Fail
No commentsBy Richard Taylor
Have you ever wondered why some marketers seem able to make big bucks all the time, yet the majority fail to make more than a few dollars?
Well I spent three years scratching my head for the answer, and then a few months ago I started to understand why I wasn’t getting the same results as the top marketers.
For a number of years I’d spent my time reading all the “best” ebooks on internet marketing and applied all the techniques and tips that I learnt. But the thousands of visitors and hundreds of sales never materialised. Were all the ebooks I read promoting methods that simply don’t work?
Well actually no, the methods in most of the ebooks and courses I’ve read do work. The problem is as follows.
The majority of marketers apply the techniques they learn on a very small scale but expect to see large scale results! When you stand back and think about it, you can clearly see that this is a strategy doomed to fail.
The only way you can expect to put a little in and pull a lot out with internet marketing is if you can incorporate a really, and I mean “really” viral component into your strategy. Otherwise if you implement small you will only see small results.
So the answer is to think big, and to think viral. That’s easily said but how do you do it?
First of all stop doing what all unsuccessful marketers do, and that is to not try and do everything yourself! We’ve all been guilty of it and until you stop you will never make it big!
While your writing and submitting a single article to drive traffic to your new product, the top guys would be employing writers to produce the articles and use a paid distribution service to create hundreds of links from it. With the time they saved outsourcing that whole process, they’d be talking to other high traffic, big list marketers about joint venture opportunities or placing paid adverts in the top ezines in their niches.
The top guys outsource the routine tasks and spend their time on the tasks with the most potential, that tasks that could result in a flood of traffic!
You have to think big. To get rich you need big traffic. You have to outsource your content creation and find opportunities to leverage other people’s traffic.
In terms of thinking virally, you need to create content that people will want to tell others about, or find a way to reward people for spreading the word on your behalf. Joint ventures and affiliate schemes achieve the viral effect to some degree, but to be truly viral you need to be creative with your content.
The bottom line is, to make a lot of money marketing online, you need to think big and spend money on outsourcing, automating and joint venturing!

5 Tips on Choosing an Internet Service Provider
By Musa Aykac
If you’re still thinking on acquiring an Internet service provider, you have 2 options to choose from: DSL and cabled Internet connections, and dial-up method.
The dial-up Internet connection is just an introductory method but it got popular, based on the over-all number of subscribers who pay-by-month. When the DSL and cabled Internet connection methods rose to popularity, the dial-up started to lose its shine.
Before you make a decision on what Internet service provider you’ll get, you must consider some factors first. If you’re an experienced Internet user, you may just want something simple. But if you’re a novice to such modern technology, it pays to be extra careful. There are many service providers out there and you just might get lucky and receive an offer for a free access to the Internet.
Here are some helpful tips when choosing an Internet service provider:
1. List down your reasons why you use the Internet. If you just need a connection which you can get information from or just a way to communicate; i.e., email, talk or chat, you can safely choose the simplest type of Internet service. Now, if you haven’t experienced Internet yet but want to learn through your own service, you may need a service with more features easily controlled by mouse.
2. Make an extensive research first. If you are looking for an Internet connection with all the fancy features; i.e., bells and whistles every time something occurs on the Internet or even when an email arrives (whether through Yahoo! or Google’s Gmail). Pay more attention on the payment plans. There are providers who offer basic services complete with features at a very low monthly payment. And there are those that will charge you with sky-high bills for your Internet connection.
3. Assess the length of time you will use the Internet. You may want to stay with your old dial-up service connection if you’d be using the Internet for just a few hours every day. Dial-up users are offered by providers with a variety of choices regarding fee plans. One of these options is ideal because you’ll pay a low-priced monthly fee for a service type which allows users Internet access for only a few hours per month. Why get an unlimited and much pricey Internet connection when you will use it for several hours only a day?
4. Check this out if you want a free Internet connection. The subscribers to DSL and cabled connections, and other Internet service providers are allowed to use America Online without charge. You must remember not to use their own connection though and you do not dial access though any AOL lines. For not changing your email address, AOL will throw in a few more services at no charge. You will get free downloading of virus scanner, pop-up blocker, and spam blocker programs. As the most well-known service provider in the US, AOL can afford to offer free Internet service to users with their connection because its income is generally generated from advertising profits rather than the revenue from subscriber.

Just in Time Inventory in Todays Business
A business practice that has become very popular over the past ten years is Just in Time inventory. The Just in Time technique involves storing only enough inventory or materials to meet immediate demands, which is particularly effective for a product that has a short manufacturing process. For products with longer, more complex manufacturing processes, in-process inventory is reduced, requiring a great deal of communication between units to coordinate efforts and keep production running smoothly. In either case, Just in Time inventory can present a significant cost savings.
The Just in Time inventory concept was actually first used by Henry Ford in the 1920s. It was his vision that the perfect process would have the raw materials arriving from the dock and going directly to the factory floor for assemblyand then the finished product would roll out the door to be delivered. Of course, this would require that everything goes perfectly and there are no delays in transportation, leading to wasted time on the line waiting for materials. Because nothing is ever perfect, Fords ideal vision is not likely to come to fruition. However, that does not mean you cannot find a compromise, storing only a minimum of materials and inventory as insurance against delays.
The Value of Just in Time Inventory
A major cost of a company that sells a physical product is the cost to store inventory. Storage costs can add up: warehouse space, staff for the warehouse, utilitiesnot to mention the costs associated with inventory loss through theft, spoilage or damage related to storing such as water damage. In most industries in todays business world , products are constantly changing or improving, and storing a large inventory will almost guarantee that your company will be left behind the curve, selling old products after your competitors have moved on. Storing an inventory is a very cost inefficient way to do business.
With Just in Time, all of these costs are greatly reduced or eliminated. Less warehouse space is needed to store your products, and you can say goodbye to throwing away spoiled or damaged goods. What may be more important, you can continually update your product line as needed to keep up with your competitors. When your research and development department makes an improvement on a component, you can integrate the improvements immediately, because you will not have large amounts of the old components to use up first. You will be able to provide your customers with the most up-to-date technology possible, which is great for your reputation.
A Just in Time inventory program is a viable answer for many companies that need to reduce costs and move their businesses faster to keep up with changing customer demands.
