    How to get your first client?

    Not really. A client may first find you on the search engine if you have done no other type of marketing to your niche whatsoever, but repeat business will make you or break you. Stay in contact with your clientele. Rick

    How to get your first client?

    Based on what? I wrote an article which in this forum I am not allowed to copy and paste so sorry you may not benefit from it, on price wars being bad for customers. With too low of a price you don't have time to take care of the customers you have now since you always have to go searching for...

    YOUTUBE as a Social Platform?

    Most people missed Gil's point about YouTube being a social platform. Commenting on other videos can get you just as much mileage as posting videos. As a computer virus removal specialist I'll get down with the video poster and even occasionally link to an article I wrote on the subject. If you...

    Why you will continue to fail as a niche marketer

    I always explain to people the difference between a martial artist and a regular person is not that they don't both get knocked down. The difference is the martial artist gets back up. It's the same with a business-person. You don't fail until you stay down. This is one of the reasons people...

    What's your next step after a Product LAUNCH?

    Don't forget to make a separate email list of people who have bought. These are people who have faith in you and your product and may be just a small percentage of your main email list. Rick

    How to create content and build links to affiliate sites?

    I like to compare offline to online when I give lessons. What you're stating is driving traffic to an empty office is useless. Folks, compare your online business to an offline business. If it makes sense offline it will probably make sense online. People are the common factor. Rick

    How to make money from your forum

    Heck Gil that applies to any type of website. I continue to hold that a forum has greater flexibility in monetization than a standard web page or Wordpress blog.

    How to make money from your forum

    I find CBProAds more stable and they pay Clickbank product commissions. I also don't have to worry about some type of change in policy where all of a sudden I have no income from my ads. I've even clicked interesting ads and made them posts in my forum with my affiliate link at the end. Rick

    How to create content and build links to affiliate sites?

    It's a skill. The problem I have with it is people depend on a single source for prospects. One little change and all income is lost. People need to get traffic from all possible sources. One drops, no problem you have others. Rick

    How to create content and build links to affiliate sites?

    Go where your customers are. I agree don't worry about search engines for now. You want traffic so social media, soft sell. Use your profile. Join groups. Network with people. The more they get to know you, the more likely they will buy and then buy again. Rick

    Struggles in making money online?
