Money From Traffic!!

The actual text you use in the title tag is one of the most important factors in how a search engine may decide to rank your web page. In addition, all major web crawlers will use the text of your title tag as the text they use for the title of your page in your listings.

For a lot of people the introduction of a membership site is something of real interest.

One of the easiest ways, at the moment, of creating a membership site is to use a Wordpress Blog platform and one of the many membership plugins which are available.

The only drawback to this is the cost of the initial plugin – which can be anything from $67 upwards (the sky is the limit!)

Until now these plugins have been out of reach for a lot of people – and they don’t relish having their membership sites hacked by using cheap and nasty plugins either!

Now there is a great plugin available to almost everyone – with a huge list of features – too many to list here, in fact.

For a preview of how this Wordpress eMember plugin works – visit this site and see just what it has to offer!

I am convinced you won’t be disappointed!

Website content and lead generation

One of the best ways to get leads through your website is to give the visitors information that they need without them knowing that they need it. Let’s face it – people don’t like to feel as if they are dumb. But if you give them information that is useful without them feeling as if they are being talked down to, it can really make them sit up and take notice.

For example, take a company that sells jewelry. Most everyone knows what the birthstones are for the different months of the year. But someone who has a jewelry website could offer a chart for different anniversaries. For example, the 40th wedding anniversary gemstone is ruby.

Another thing that a jewelry website could offer is cleaning tips for different types of gemstones, because not every method can be used on every type of gemstone. But that is something that can be offered on the website as well.

Both of the examples above are things that people may not know that they want to know, but it’s information that is quite useful and people are going to be happy that it’s available.

People like to know that the company is offering them information that is useful to them, because it doesn’t make them feel as if the company is only trying to make a sale. The more useful information that you offer people, the better chance you have of making a sale. People like to get things that are free, even if it is only free information.

Talk to your customer, not above them

One of the biggest things that turns off prospective clients is when someone is talking way above their heads. It’s insulting, it’s confusing, and it shows the client that the business person doesn’t care about them or their feelings. All they care about is making money.

A good way to generate leads is to talk to prospective clients in a way that they can understand. The last thing that anyone wants to do is to feel like they are dumb, and when they don’t understand what you are talking about, that is how they feel.

Whether you are making a flyer, a brochure, or your website. write it in layman’s terms so that people there can understand what it is that you are saying. It’s easy to think that clients will be impressed by the vast knowledge that you show, but it can have just the opposite affect if they get turned off by terms that they don’t understand.

If there are terms that you have to use, consider including a glossary so that people know that you thought of them when you were creating the information. This will not only impress them but it will also show that you really care about them being well informed.

Don’t assume that everyone will know what you are talking about, or will be impressed by big words and a lot of jargon. Depending on who the target audience is, it may make them decide to turn around and go with your competitor.

Lead Generation Evaluation

One thing that people in business should remember is that it’s important to take time once in a while and see how leads are being generated. There are a couple of ways that you can do this.

1. Website –

Take a look at your website and see what kind of traffic it is getting. How many people are coming, how long are they staying once they get there? Are they subscribing to your newsletter, taking surveys, leaving feedback on your guestbook or forums?

If your traffic is low, take a look at the content that is offered on it and see if there is something that can be done to bring more visitors in. You might want to pay someone who is specialized in Search Engine Optimization to write some content for your website.

2. Leads –

It’s a good idea to talk to people who contact you so that you can find out where they got their information from. That will let you know what is working and what isn’t, and allow you to get rid of the dead weight that isn’t bringing any new business in.

It’s essential that you know where your leads are coming in and what isn’t working. It’s not cost effective or wise to use mediums that aren’t working. They should be changed so that there are more leads generated, in the case of a website, or done away with altogether, in the case of a newspaper advertisement.

The medium that you dispose of right now can always be revisited in the future.
