Web 2.0 and social networking are common trends spoken about a lot in different internet marketing circles nowadays. Web 2.0 basically makes use of user generated content and interactivity on a site. An example of a Web2.0 tool are blogs because when you post to your blog you expect your visitors to comment on topic you post about. So your visitors add content to your site by interacting with you in that way.

Squidoo is another Web 2.0 tool because it enables a community of people to build web pages that are called lenses on just about any subject. There are lenses on subjects such as business, art & crafts, SEO, affiliate marketing, games consoles, hobbies etc.

One of the main benefits of using Squidoo is that building a lens is very easy and straightforward. You can make use of Squidoo wizards and a series of modules that guide you through the process. I discovered that there are actually four simple steps to follow in order to build a lens and you are helped throughout the process. And there is an added benefit in that you can go back at a later date and improve your lenses when you are have more content to add.

You might ask the ultimate question that why should you bother with Squidoo. Well, here are the benefits
1) Its free, you don”t even need to bother hosting them on your servers.
2) It is easy to set up .
3) Google loves lenses and you will get more traffic to your sites through your lenses.
4) You can earn money by setting up lenses.

From an internet marketer’s perspective it is an additional promotional tool for your niche sites and you could even now add an opt in list to pick up potential customers.

And finally, you could even use a Squidoo lens to explore a new niche that you are just considering. It also enables you to add affiliate links that will make you money whilst you are still investigating the potential niche.

Here are a couple of lenses that I built for the PSP Games console.

My sincere apologies for posting a late update on my new life as a full time internet marketer. I have been busy promoting a brand new website relating to audio books. And that took most of my time in the past week. Also, I am busy researching ideas for an information product that I am putting together for a popular games console.

In between that I was on Skype to my mentors that I am work with in the States so I have had a busy week. I also took time out to read ebooks and listening to audios from established internet marketers. And finally, I did write a few articles to promote my new sites in the article directories.

I hope to be back with a much more detailed update real soon.

Cheers

My online friend Lynn Terry over at ClickNewz recently asked her readers ‘What is your biggest question about getting traffic to your website?’. Interestingly, she got a very good response with users asking very interesting questions regarding getting traffic to your website. I assume this is a very popular topic amongst website owners so I asked her specifically ‘What it the best way if there is any to monetize the traffic that you get to your sites?.

Her answer to the question is very detailed and you can find it here. However, to summarize what she said, you can monetize your traffic using selling your own products, promoting affiliate programs or using contextual advertising, etc. depending on the site. But in order to answer how you should monetize a specific site then you should ask yourself, ‘What is the purpose of the site you are trying to monetize?’.

And you shouldn’t be thinking about just selling a product or making money. In fact you need to put yourself in your visitors shoes and try and figure out what they are looking for.

Lynn has provided a detailed and informative post on how monetize your website traffic. She added a case study to explain how she looked at the keyword ‘Content Composer’ that a visitor had searched on, and provided different suggestions on how she could have monetized traffic coming from that keyword being searched for on the search engines.

My first week as a full time internet marketer went like a breeze. Settling in to work in my home office on Monday morning made me feel kind of strange as I was always used to doing the routine 110 miles journey to my contract job in Kent. Anyway, it was fun working from home and I managed to get two mini projects up and running. They are both promoting resell right products that I bought the rights to. I will be promoting both sites this week so that would be interesting.

I also communicated by Skype to an online friend in the States and we have another session scheduled later this week. We all need mentors in this business and I am happy to have my online friend as a mentor. I must admit though that I got a little distracted by visiting forums, checking emails etc.

I will be concentrating fully on work this week and must be disciplined enough not to get sidetracked.

My initial goal for my online business is to split my time between promoting (affiliate programs, resell right products) and working on my projects. I am looking at 70/30 split at this point in time.

Watch out for another update real soon.

Following up from my Quick Profits from Resell Rights post a couple of days ago, you may be wondering what exactly are resell rights products? I have put together an article that explains exactly what resell right products are.

What Are Resell Rights Products?
Copyright 2007 By Ade Lamidi

Resell right products are products and services that have been developed by someone else but enables you to put your own brand on them and make 100% profit when you market them. You can offer these products in addition to you own products.

There are lots of programmers and authors that like producing products but not marketing them. So as an internet marketer, you can take the product, put some of your touch on it and market it under your own brand. You can even set these products up as part of an affiliate program.

There are three type of resell right products. Resell Rights, Private Label Rights and Software Source Code.

Resell Rights

1) Basic Resell Rights - You can sell the product for any price you want and keep 100% of the profits. However, you can’t pass on the rights to your customers to resell the product. And you can’t change the product either.

2) Master Resell Rights - You can sell the product or the rights to sell the products for any price you choose and keep 100% of the profits. However, whoever you sell the rights to have to right to sell on the master resell rights to the product. Again you can’t change the base product.

3) Rebranding Resell Rights- You can take a resell rights product and change certain links to your own affiliate links within the product using special software.

Private Label Rights

These rights enable others to sell you the rights to a ‘rough draft’, and then you put your own and market the product as your own. In most cases, the rough draft is more or less completed and you just need to edit the ebook or software, add your own title and then you have a product to market.

Software Source Code

Software source code can be interpreted as private label rights to software. You have take the software you have private label rights to and have a programmer customise it by adding new features, graphics and your unique brand name.

I have identified 5 reasons why people offer private label and resale rights to products.

1) There is a possibility that the original product hasn’t been selling that well. The is a way for the original product developer to generate new revenue stream.

2) They may have created the product in order to pass on their links so as to generate a lot of back end sales.

3) They may have created the product with the aim of selling the rights since that generally generates money fast.

4) The enjoy the product development cycle and just like creating products but not selling them.

5) And lastly, they have created the product specifically so that people can opt into their list.

Finally, you should note that in order to make the most of resell right products, you have to make sure you offer a very unique product. There is a possibility that other marketers might have the same resell right products so you want to offer something more than what your competitors are offering to make the most of the resell right products. And also, you want to check that the product is not already sold on Ebay cheaply, because that might damage the value of the resell right product.

It’s no secret to the visitors of my site that I don’t just recommend everything and anything that comes down the pike.

I find it more important to be objective with my reviews so that you can make a sound decision about the products and services you’ll use for your online business.

Now I do make money by marketing products online as an affiliate, but I only endorse them if they meet or exceed their stated values.

So how does this relate to you?

Well, it means that I take an in-depth look at Internet marketing products on the market and I share my objective findings with you so then you can make an informed decision.

Today’s review is on a program called ‘Resell Rights For Newbies’ from Liz Tomey and John Hostler.

Now I don’t often get excited about resell products but this is something a little special…

‘Resell Rights For Newbies’ is actually a complete system designed to teach new marketers how to start and build their own Internet business from scratch, using resell rights products.

The reason the system is built around resell rights products is because of their low barrier to entry.

Low barrier to entry simply means that you could quickly and easily secure resell rights products and turn them for profits.

You avoid the pitfalls of creating a product, yet enjoy the rewards as if they were your own… most importantly keeping all the profits for yourself.

Now with that said, this does not mean if you run out and purchase a 20 pack of resell rights products that you will make thousands the very next day.

And that’s why most programs fall short…they sell the sizzle and not the steak. They tell you that by purchasing resell rights products you are sure to make money.

You see, it’s still a business and must be treated as such.

However, in order to be successful with Resell Rights products you need to:

• know where to find quality products that aren’t being marketed by everyone under the sun
• know how to set up a web site to market those products
• have the marketing tricks up your sleeve to be able to move the products
• know how to drive traffic to your web site

Thus the beauty of ‘Resell Rights For Newbies’.

This is a complete system for profits with resell rights products.

It is a step by step program that covers the 4 crucial components above by way of video tutorials, ebooks, and a web based tool kit.

The 12 video tutorials, are straight to the point learning tools that will teach you everything you need to know about getting, creating, and starting your own web site and finding quality resell rights products to sell.

The 3 info packed PDF’s are filled with valuable information about marketing methods and strategies for selling your new resell rights products.

And the ’24 Hour Plan’ PDF was designed to have you making sales and your first profits within 24 hours…

Liz and John have put together a superb product with ‘Resell Rights For Newbies’ and have laid out a system that anyone can follow, regardless of experience level.

It’s no fluff and because it’s been done in multimedia, accommodates people with all different types of learning styles.

Oh, and if you’re feeling weary because you’ve heard it all before…well, Liz and John have done the unthinkable and made this available for FREE for a very limited time.

The bottom line on ‘Resell Rights For Newbies’ is that it’s a weapon you should put in your marketing arsenal…and quickly.

Here is the link to get you started.

To prove my point, check out the resell rights site below I put together within an hour of watching the videos.

One of the interesting topics dot com/business entrepreneurs struggle with in their daily lives is how to manage their time most effectively when running an online business. And having just started working online full-time, you wouldn’t be suprised that I am also facing the same problems. I mean ‘How Do I manage my time effectively online?’

Dot Com entrepreneurs like myself have a million things going on in our heads and want to work on multiple projects at the same time. In addition to this you want to see over your day to day online operations and maybe catch up with email and maybe chat with a friend or two. We also want to update our blogs from time to time right. So the big question is how do you deal with this time management problem.

My way of dealing with it is to try and prioritize my projects and try and finish one project before jumping onto another one. I just finished reading an e-book put together by Dennis Becker called ‘5 Bucks A Day’. He explains in his ebook how you can set yourself up with different internet projects that will earn you $5 a day and use it to build a VRE empire.

I’ve also just finished reading ‘No B.S Time Management For Entrepreneurs’. Reading this book is a must if you want to manage your busy time effectively online or offline.

Cheers!!!
