Getting Leads To Your Website

For you to earn in your Affiliate Marketing business, you have got to sell products or services to people. How do you get people to sell or market to? I want you to imagine a well located supermarket in an imposing building with well stocked and arranged merchandise but with no one visiting to even do window shopping. So it is for a website without people or traffic. There is no way how such a supermarket or website sell products to earn income. A major challenge in online marketing is getting people to sell to. This is easily achievable through putting in place some things.

One of this is creating a capture page in order to build a list. You must have come across the statement "money is in the list." A list is composed of names and information about potential prospects and buyers to which contact can be regularly made in form of tips, gist, offers, banters etc. Such lists are compiled through capture or squeeze pages.

Squeeze pages are frames on the website that solicit information like name, email and telephone Nos. of visitors to your website. In order for you to make visitors volunteer such information, you must offer them free gifts like ebook, free training, free ezine etc that serve as motivation.

Such information are usually stored on websites of companies who provide autoresponders services.  Autoresponders are capable of storing information about your prospects and send structured email messages periodically in accordance with your settings. There are companies that provide free autoresponder service. Others provide their services for a fee. The disadvantages attached to free autoresponder service is that you have limited number of prospects that they can keep for you free. Such companies can withdraw their services without prior information and you lose all the names on your list. Moreover, they put their advertisements on the emails to your prospects.

One other way to build your list is through advertisements in the social platforms like google, facebook, twitter and even on tabloids. All these still need a link to your squeeze page in order to collect the very necessary information even if their first visit will not lead to sales.

You can build your list through traffic exchanges. This involves you surfing other marketers websites for points that you can use to put your own website for others to see while surfing. A lot of such traffic exchanges abound on the web. This system is a cheap way to build your list. It will only involve you surfing the net on different traffic exchanges.

The money is truly in the list. Without a list you cannot sell and without selling no commission will enter your account. If you are serious about making success of your online marketing experience, you must begin to build your list now.
