‘Remnant traffic’ myths.
There are a multitude of myths and misconceptions concerning different aspects of online advertising which are still misleading for both Internet users and advertisers alike. One of these misconceptions is the definition of ‘remnant traffic’. Some advertising networks and agencies have their own glossary open for public use, where remnant traffic is often defined as “the most inexpensive ad inventory traffic by disreputable sites or empty ‘parked domains’ advertising inappropriate content”. Is remnant traffic really as bad as we are led to believe?

Website promotion gets the word of your business publicized. If you are already making sales, then using other more innovative promotional methods can boost your target inventory of possible buyers and sales through the roof. Affiliate programs are designed to do precisely that. The intention behind affiliate programs is straightforward. You utilize different businesses and websites to promote your products on their website. They have the responsibility of doing the groundwork while you reap the settlement. But, they too get a portion of the cut when web traffic click on their link and proceed to your website.

What is really annoying with affiliate marketing or internet marketing in general, is that one little mistake can have a devastating effect. You can really work very hard to send traffic to your site and maybe spend a lot of money on ads, but if your site is not what people want, then they go away. The more time people spend on your site the more likely they are to purchase something.

One of the most important things is a great customer service, where affiliates are honest and friendly. So many sites are very complicated, full of ads and unnecessary information, which drives people away. The more simple and friendly your site is the better. Do not try to sell products at all costs and make promises that are unrealistic.

There are a couple of internet marketing training courses that I have recently considered taking. It seems like every new program seems to have the magic answers and solutions to making money online through online marketing. I have to admit that I am a little cautious about just jumping into one of the new training programs.

I have learned affiliate marketing the hard way. I started by learning HTML several years ago, and went to my local college to learn web development. I even got a degree out of it. The funny thing is that internet marketing was still so new a few years back. No one really had any real answers about how to market a website online. I mean really, before WordPress, RSS, and social bookmarking, how was anyone really going to get traffic to their website quickly. My websites were entertaining to look at but traffic was not their strong points.

If you want to boost your website sales to the next level,
you've got to think and act like a high-sales marketer.
Here's how:

1. Think sales not just traffic. Pay-per-click advertising
is a great way to pull targeted traffic. Could anything be
better? In many cases, pay-per-SALE advertising is a better
choice. With pay-per-clicks, you may or may not make sales.
With a pay-per-sale arrangement, there's very little or even
NO risk. You only pay when you make sales. Affiliate programs
and joint ventures are examples. Set up deals where you pay
only for each sale.

With these economic downtimes among us, it sometimes feels like we are very overworked, and underpaid in our Internet businesses. Costs are still the same, but sales are lagging. This alone is bad enough for your business, aside from the depression that could set in and cause you to be less productive. So to step aside from that and get your business back to creating the type of income that you are used to, even when people just aren't spending as much, here are a few tactics to create instant surges of cash, with very little work. 1. Run a “clearance” sale This is an easy one. Simply run a special sale on one of your products. Here are a few ideas: – We're Over-stocked so you can order at 20% off… – The manufacturer gave us a good deal, so we are passing the savings on to you… – We have a warehouse full of already-opened, but perfectly normal products that we are going to sell for half off..Only 54 units are available… 2. Offer an extra bonus Here is a simple idea. Create a new, exclusive bonus to offer to everybody who orders within a certain time frame. This bonus can be an audio interview with a recognized industry expert, a special report, a new gadget, whatever. Tell them that they can get this special new bonus if they order within 5-15-20 (or however long you want to give them) days from today. If your bonus is of high value, many people will order your product just to get the bonus. Either way, you still get the sale. 3. Joint venture to increase value You can joint venture with a complimentary product owner and offer each others products as a package for the same price. So if I sell a product for say $39, and you sell one for $39, my traffic and your traffic can get both products for $39 if they order within a certain time frame. This is more drastic, but *definitely* gives you an instant surge of new orders. You can usually get these kinds of deals quickly when the JV partner sees the instant potential it can have. You don't want to de-value your product by doing this though, so you have to make it quick. Set it up to only last for 3 days or so, email your opt-in list about it, then take it down. 4. Special discount Offer some sort of special discount related to current events. A holiday discount, a sports discount (like the baseball world series), or whatever.. Maybe there is a big fuss about something in your industry that will give you a good reason to offer a limited time discount. Use your imagination! You can come up with all kinds of ways to give a “special” discount, only available to a select few. I have a friend that runs a special promotion for every single U.S. and international holiday. Last time I talked to him about it, he said it puts an extra $20-30k in his bank each year at the least. 5. Offer personal help to the next X people that order I have done this one a few times. Offer your personal help for the next X amount of people that order. You can give free email advice, set up a discussion board or even give phone consultations (if you have the time). If I am selling a weight loss report, I may say: “For the next 50 people that order, I will personally help you create your diet plan and guide you through my system at no cost..” You can do this promotion often, as you can limit the amount of people that you accept each time. This allows you to stop the promotion, and clear the workload, then restart it. Be sure to explain how they will be able to get your personal help (i.e. email, phone, etc..) so that they don't make the wrong assumption. There are plenty of ways to instantly get a rush of orders, these are just a few. Notice how they all are either limited time, or limited by the number of people who order. Putting a time limit, or unit limit on special offers (or any offer for that matter) is a surefire way to increase the response of your offers. Doing this will result in a bigger surge, much quicker! BUT, stick true to your word. If you say you are only giving the special offer for the next 5 days, then do not let anybody order after those 5 days are up. Otherwise, you risk your credibility. So create a few ways to make some special offers to your opt-in list, or customer list and see if you can't get your cashflow back on track!

Long tail searches are combined searches formed from several high frequency keywords and key phrases.
Long tail optimization simply targets the customers that very few others target using the less popular keyword or phrases. There are the hundreds to thousands of less popular keywords and key phrases that a site is searched for, yet rarely noticed or used by site owners or internet marketers.

Principle of the Long Tail
The principle of the Long Tail is the opposite of focusing on the top 10-20 keywords or key phrases for marketing of sites. According to long tail principal the length, or total number of low-number referred terms outnumbers the height or the total of top 10 terms.
