Blowing $1,000 on “Free Leads” ???

This article was written by Ray Fong and Ferny Ceballos of SEO Networker

The very first time we attempted to generate our own leads was using Google Adwords and bidding on a bunch of MLM keywords.

We didn’t know what we were doing and spent nearly $1,000 to make measly $60 bucks – OUCH!

What happened to generating “FREE Leads” with Google AdWords?

Well, they forgot to tell you that it’s only free if you get them to convert. So while you see lots of promises of “free leads” with Google AdWords, the truth is that every click on your ad to create a visitor to your website will cost you money!

Even if they never subscribe to your newsletter or join your business – you still got to pay Google. So how can folks claim it to be “free leads”?

Well, if some of the visitors to your website, subscribe to your email newsletter and purchase something – the idea is to make more money from those sales, than you spent in AdWords.

But how many people can claim they got this right the first time? Or even the 10th or 20th time?

The fact is, for every person who manages to successfully produce sales to cover their cost in advertising, there are hundreds of others losing their shirts and raking up their credit cards on more dead beat leads.

You’re trying so hard to show your upline that the future of this industry is on the internet, yet you keep getting more broke…

Been there. Done that. Bought the t-shirt. Got the wrong size.

Fact – Average Networker Can’t Afford to Lose Money Advertising

Granted that any new venture will require you fronting some money to get good and to become profitable, but blowing thousands of dollars in unsuccessful advertising is beyond the financial capacity of most networkers.

Most of us already got ourselves thousands in debt doing MLM the traditional way. And while it is worth it to push through and “crack the code” like we were able to do, sometimes it is simply not feasible for the average networker to risk thousands in advertising.

After a lot of money and more debt, we were fortunate to be one of the few who “got it”. You can’t imagine how good it felt to finally break even, after blowing $1,000 with almost no return our first time.

We were excited and used our profits to continue learning, experimenting with dozens of different traffic methods, finding success in some and scrapping the ones that sucked. And while there’s a lot of hype about “free traffic methods”, few of them produced very much traffic.

Yet, the methods we found to work great also carried a heavy financial risk (CPM, Banner Ads, Ezines, etc.) Mistakes would sideline most networkers who tried and many others just wouldn’t even try.

Ultimately, you are the only one responsible for your success and we are by no means offering excuses for those that gave up. This is YOUR Business!

However, as leaders it should be our duty to continue to break down walls and barriers to help those that come after as.

I personally blew way more than $1,000 on the “Free Traffic”

What the heck is SEO anyway?

If you have ever spoken to anyone who has a website, you hear the term “Is your site SEO’d” or “How are you doing your SEO for your site? But what is SEO?

SEO is Search Engine Optimization – or in other words — SEO can be defined as the activity of optimizing Web pages or whole sites in order to make them more search engine-friendly, thus getting higher positions in search results.

So my question was when I started my online marketing career, I asked what was a “search engine” Let me tell you in simple terms – a search engine is someone like Google, Yahoo, MSN, etc. – there are a ton of search engines in the internet world.

To make things real simple, you go online to search for a topic or would like some information about a product or service, you type in your keywords and a “search engine, Google for example, list the results for you. To a company marketing their products, the 1st page of the search engine is gold. Most people looking for something rarely go past the 1st page.

So, enter the world of SEO. How do you as a marketer get your site to the front page of the search engines when there is a ton of competition for your product or service? This is called your SEO ranking.

The first basic truth you need to learn about SEO is that search engines are not humans. While this might be obvious for everybody, the differences between how humans and search engines view web pages aren’t. Unlike humans, search engines are text-driven. Although technology advances rapidly, search engines are far from intelligent creatures that can feel the beauty of a cool design or enjoy the sounds and movement in movies. Instead, search engines crawl the Web, looking at particular site items (mainly text) to get an idea what a site is about.

Since the search engines value text as king, you must have the correct keywords on your site in order for your site to rise in the rankings. Here is a quick list on how to begin your SEO tactics –
1. Choosing the right keywords to optimize for
2. Keyword density
3. Keywords in special places
4. Keywords in URLS and file names
5. Keywords in page titles
6. Keywords in headings

Learning how to SEO your site does require work. SEO Networker has a whole host of trainings how to show you how SEO techniques.

Spending More Marketing Dollars !?

Common Mistake #3: Bleeding Yourself Dry – Spending More Marketing Dollars than You can Afford

This problem of course ties into common mistake #2, but that’s only half the story.

The absolute truth is that most folks have absolutely no idea how to market online. They think that just by throwing money (that they really can’t afford) into blind advertising that, that’ll make it magically work in their favor.

A little while later reality sinks in as they deplete their entire marketing budget with nothing to show for it.

Like you, we’ve had our moments of heartaches at the beginning when we first started online. We had no idea what we were doing. We watched literally hundreds and thousands of our marketing dollars wasted as we struggled to grasp this “online marketing” thing…

Listen, it’s a cruel cruel world out there… Google and other companies are more than happy to charge you a **Stupid Tax** as the result of your ignorance and naivety. If you are able and willing to spend big dollars on marketing, you darn-well better know what you are doing and do everything you can to stack the odds in your favor and to mitigate your risks.

Fortunately, Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is unique in that it results in very targeted traffic, cost you absolutely ZERO dollars in advertising, gives you the power to brand yourself as a leader (even if you haven’t sponsored a single person) and can provide you with an unlimited source of traffic.
