Niche Marketing - Creating Your Own Product - with Private Label Rights

All the big hitters and power players will tell you that you need to be creating your own products and marketing them to make the really big money.

And you know what?

That’s absolutely correct. If you want to explode your business and create cash out of thin air then you need to be marketing your own stuff not only affiliate products.

But...and this is a huge “but”.

Creating products is not at all easy. I mean, think about everything that goes into just a digital ebook...

You have to research and write the ebook. That could be anywhere between 40 and 100+ pages.

Then you have to write the sales copy...and not just any old sales copy...no, you need to write copy that bends wills and makes people buy.

Next, you need to create a Thank You/Download page, upload your products to your server, and link them to those pages...

And, then you need to handle the graphics. I’m leaving out some other minor details but I’m sure you get the gist...there’s a lot to do just to create and sell one ebook.

There is a way out of the largest part of all this work:

Private Label Rights. Buy the PLR products, put your name on the ebook and the Sales Letter and bam...in just minutes you’ll have “created” your own brand new product.

You find Private Label Rights all over the Net at the moment - but this would be too easy money of course. You need quality products you can really be proud to put your name on. You must find a site you can trust to deliver those; so that you indeed need to make minor changes only.

And the PLR would be quite useless still, if everyone can get them. Further: To really stand out from the crowd you need to find cutting edge products like audio and video.

Paul Kleinmeulman is launching Automatic Niche Profits today. You NEED to get over there to register right now because he’s limiting the number of members and his sites usually sell out in a couple of days.

He offers Private Label Rights to High Quality Products, including Audio and Video.
If you’re ready to profit at will, take your life and your business to a whole new level, and create money out of thin air, then you owe it to yourself to at least have a look.

I consider myself lucky a friend of Paul was allowed to share these details before the general public finds out. Now I may pass the advdvantage on to You... take it while you can.

An Interesting Research on Bloggers and Bloggig

I found this Pdf in the the traffic exchange for blogs "BlogMad" . The report answers one of my following Questions: Who are those Bloggers, Why and What do they Blog? - in general, not for business.

(Quote) : Bloggers: Summary of Findings at a Glance

• Blogging is bringing new voices to the online world.
• Telephone surveys capture the most accurate snapshot possible of a small and moving target.
• Contrary to the impression created by the press attention on political blogging, just 11% of bloggers say they focus mainly on government or politics.
• The blogging population is young, evenly split between women and men, and racially diverse.
• Relatively small groups of bloggers view blogging as a public endeavor.
• The main reasons for keeping a blog are creative expression and sharing personal experiences.
• Only one-third of bloggers see blogging as a form of journalism. Yet many check facts and cite original sources.
• Bloggers are avid consumers and creators of online content. They are also heavy users of the internet in general.
• Bloggers are major consumers of political news and about half prefer sources without a particular political viewpoint.
• Bloggers often utilize community and readership-enhancing features available on their blogs.

The report shows also that, at least until the beginning of the year, few Bloggers look after earning money with it, and the Blog as Business tool is not yet too overrun.

Spacelady's Archive

Spacelady's Archive:

"I think I should really enable the archive again - but I miss CATEGORIES - so from now on I will sort all the links to my more important posts and other own publications by category here in the Spacelady's Archive."

Link Popularity

One of the important things for the ranking of a website is its link popularity. that means, it should be linked to many, preferrably high-ranking sites.

Search machines would then follow those links and find the site.

A good way to get links is a link exchange. I recently joined one called LinkMetro.

A slight disadvantage might be to land on a sites "linkfarm", because search engines are overtaxed, when there are more then 150 links on one page, but having no inbound links at all is a worse one.

Links should always be reciprocal. Putting up a link on ones own site without a backlink on the other one (outbound links) does not increase one's link popularity much, on the contrary, it might overflood the site.

Therefore one should be careful when one allows or even aks for comments . There are many 'nice' creatures around who write their ads, or leave their backtracks instead of a comment.



Here on blogspot it got better since better precautions against link spam can be taken, luckily the word verification alone deters those people.

(Please don't mind that I do not let comments be visible at once, but only after approval, which I forget sometimes for some days.)

Did I get linking requests?

Oh yes, more then I exspected. But nobody puts his links on the main page. So I finally got my new link directory up and all the links off my blog again.

Everyone controls now and then, if his own link is still on the link partner's site - at least he should. Link exchange services do that automatically when the request is approved. - I do not know yet, if they check back later and I will have to verify the new location of my linkpartners' links.

To those who check back themselves - and everyone else who is interested to see it:

Neila's Link Directory and the Link Exchange Links are now on my new Domain.

Lists and List Building

This is not another article on listbuilding or why it is important to have a list.
And not on "how to" either - for this I recommend the free ebook and great audio interview package of MLM Expert James Grandstaff "Downline Secrets" .
My articles are about the pros and cons to various forms of lists.

1.) Your very own opt-in-list. This is the best option for several reasons:
People would subscribe to you personally.
They would read your newsletter or ezine
and pay special attention to your offers.

This could be the most responsive list you can mail to, because from the beginning there is a personal relationship between you and your readers who would sooner or later become returning customers.

Con:
Your own list needs permanent care to keep the readers happy, even if you run out of new ideas, suffer from a writers block, or get ill.

Even worse are other dangers: Bulk mailing and sudden raise of traffic to your domain might cause problems with your provider.

You could overlook a small legal issue or someone else could send unsolicited email in your name - and once you get accused of spamming this could be the end to a mayor part of your business. In this accusation, the prove is reversed: you must proof your innocence, and even if you can; - nobody can force your mail- or internet provider accept you again.

These risks are less, when you use an auto responder service. There are even some good free ones around, but I do not know, if you can build multiple lists or huge lists for free with those.

2.) A better option for beginners are List Builders.

But take care that you do not join just any list from an anonymous advertisement. Unfortunately I have to start with some serious cons here.

My favorate annoying issue: Hidden costs in "free" services.

In almost all the traditional List Builders you are tempted, even indirectly forced to upgrade and pay hefty fees for that.
(More then for renting a Safelist Provider, where you could occasionally even adopt a big existing safelist, or in special offers build 3 to 5 own safelists; and more then you would pay for an autoresponder.)

You are tempted by the promise of residual income after you pay first.

Now, if you wanted a job - would you pay your boss so you may work for him and get payed later? - This is ridiculous, but exactly what most list builders expect you to do. With the difference, that it is most uncertain if so many of your referrals upgrade that you even earn the fees back.

I personally do not understand, why anybody would wish to upgrade in an old huge List Builder, but people do still.

"Pay to mail the whole list" sounds good, sure. And it sometimes makes sense to upgrade and start mailing right away. (Only when the list is NEW, so that you do not have to compete with hundreds of other pros.)

But there is still is this temptation - and there is this sententence in your members area: "commisions: If you were a pro member, you could have earned commissions now, because your referral upgraded."

(But as it is ((*grin, nana nana nana)) your commission, including the monthly commissions through this member, are forfeited, they go to the nearest pro in your upline and most to the admin!) - indirect force to upgrade, just in case....

For me that would be a reason not to join this list in the first place.

Referring to build your list is work. In a list builder work not only for yourself, but for the your upline and the admin as well, because your downline will automatically be their downline as well.

It is normal, that a free member must work more, while others pay to work less - But how do you judge this common procedure that, when occasionally someone You referred upgrades, and the admin does not pay You commissions it would pay to a pro member? - while the next pro, who did nothing exept catching you for this list, or even only your sponsor, gets his smaller part of the commission. - This is nothing but deceitful in my opinion.

You might shrug your shoulders, and think it just is like that (look at the exception I just found and joined in Neila's Crazy Giveaways)

You might also think at least this listbuilder is large and renowned, so your chance to find refs is bigger, and if need be you would even consider to pay the high upgrade fee.

Even some of the top marketers use these lists, which is good for keeping in touch with the latest news.

But what happens, when the list builder is large and well-known? No, that is not an indicator for quality, not at all for the quality of the emails you might get.

It will be a lot of emails, more then you can or want to read. It can be a nuisance also, specially when most is trash - so you would probably delete them unread, cause actually you did not want to receive much anyways, but send.

Now imagine, you refer this list, because you can be quite sure that new members will sign up under you in this well known, much referred list builder:

You might get a reasonably big downline, but would they know you?
Would they read your advertisements regularly?

Probably not, because they would not know your mail between all the others, and do the same. At least I did before I left that special list - delete all mails unread.

And if you upgraded to mail thousands of free members every day... you would safely reach thousands of mailboxes instead of hundred - not readers!

So forget about the old big lists with the (in my eyes undeserved) good names and totally anonymous members. - Unless perhaps you sign up under your favourite guru - but even then.... You'd better read his newsletter and look for other list builders.

What should you look for?
NEW Lists, where you are among the first to join at the top.
Lists you can join free and use free until you see if it was the correct decision.

Take special care about two things:
Do you get too many emails from your upline and from upgraded members?
Or is the list so well structured that this not possible?

(Example: A matrix structure, where you 'only' are allowed to mail 7 or 9 levels deep. Result: you cannot get much more then twenty emails a week, perhaps 50, when pros are allowed to mail more often and more persons, and that is not too much to read them at least occasionally.)

The second is: What commissions do you get for your referral work?

When there is nothing at all, you probably even lose upgraded members from your downline, it is just not worth while. Viral listbuilding can only work, when everyone diligently looks for new members - and it will get harder and harder to find really active members, when there is no incentment for referring.

It is not even helpful when the admin offers gifts for joining - many might join just to grab those, and then just forget the list.

Conclusion:
When you join a free list builder, or join a list builder as free member, you must work hard to refer and build your list in this service. When you do, it will be similar to and almost as good as building your own list, just much safer acoording to spam accusations, you do not use your own email account either, and do not really need your own website.

It will take much time and effort. So it should not be spoiled by too much upline mail - because your downline will be theirs as well and receive the same amount.

And your affords (because that refers to those of your downline as well) must be fairly rewarded. Never pay too much attention to the promise of building residual income through listbuilding - there is a slight possibility, like a gambler's lucky streak. You can hope for it, when the list is good, but not count on it and by no means pay for it.

It is said the money is in the list - and that is true, it comes from the opportunity to offer your projects, affiliate sales and such, to many readers - not from the list building itself .


The third possibility are Safelists

Sign up, confirm your email adresses (usually the ask for two different ones)
and start mailing. - Safe, quick, easy, cheap or free.

con:
Everyone mails to each other, so you get enourmous masses of emails. But mostly you get credits for reading, so the other members must at least open your mails - then it is up to you to make them want to read also.

You can reduce the amount of mails you get by upgrading. In safelists that is usually quite cheap and gives you real advantages like personalisation, html and so on. (But very often Urls automatically appear as clickable links, if not you can leave and find where they do.)

If you are on the lookout you can find small lists or new ones who offer free pros at least. - I will as soon as possible put up all the lists that offer free platinums even.

The size of a safelist does not really matter. When it is too large you must take care that there are crditlinks to be clicked, so you get at least hits to your site.
The smaller it is, the higher the probability that the other members will really read your emails.

A great feature in a series of new safelists is that you can send under your own name. - and I am very astonished, how few people take advantage of this. (article to this subject soon to come - I will mail it to my safelists first - just to make my article sites seen - and to find referrals for these lists in the others).

Basics - How do I get Started?

A close internet-friend of mine once upon a time came across a newsletter from well known Internet Marketing Guru. He learned a lot about strategies and so on - but nothing about the very simple basics, the every day (hard) work of the online maketing newbie. Somehow I fear, there are more like him around here in 'Cyberia'.

That is, why I want to write some small articles about the very basics now. I do not claim to, or want to be a new guru, lol, I can only write my own experiences. (And I am not one of those who got rich in the net :( - but I think, I am on the right way.)

First I looked for Instruction - and my first mistake was: So much information overload that I still don't know whom to follow, what to read and work through first. So I now keep up getting my hands on whatever goodies I can and sort out what to start or use, or promote, one thing after the other. It would have been better to stick to one sceme from one person and work it through - but then, how can a newbie judge on the quality of what he is learning?

My Situation now: I have an internet presence - since some time before I started marketing.
Sure, it is possible to do it without any own website, taking up an affiliate program where they give you a site, do the actual selling themselves and give you a provision.

You get paid for promoting the site/product - so what you first need is a media to show it. I always read, that a blog is a good one - then you must get people to read it, and for that you need the same media - well, I found, that showing my blog to get traffic and readers is not enough to make them buy or even take your things.

Blogs and RSS publishing are increasing now, (I hope quickly, because I have no time to read my emails anymore, it takes too much time to even sort them, lol.)

What one needs to make a site seen is: ==>Traffic ==>Written Media (up to now maily newsletter, ezine, but always email.

On all these things you can find articles, tutorials, en masse - I will soon recommend some, but for now I stick to the basics, right at the bottom,
following: Traffic Exchange
List - Most important for Emails ('cause you may not spam)

"Brand NEW" - aTurn-Off ? - Not when List Builders are Concerned!

True, everything is praised as „Brand New“, specially those scammy get-rich–quick-schemes, which I would never join or promote. But the best time to join a MAIL-SERVICE is when it is Brand New.

WHY SHOULD YOU READ MY BLOG ?

STOP ! Keep my blog open and go on surfing, but read it. Why? 1. - Everything I recommend is free - no strings attached, or I'm out of it and I tell You why. 2. - It works - I'm constantly on the lookout for good realistic and promising opportunities. 

That takes a lot of time, as you know yourself. We both have no time to waste. So take advantage of what I found out - and please tell me what other things work best for you. 

3. - You cannot lose anything when you join me - no money, no time. I am planning to win, and I find the good ways. I do not risk money (perhaps I even miss one or the other opportunity for being such a miser, but there will always be a new one when I'm ready for it). 

I search for concise and easy coaching I can follow. Why should You trust me? Obviously, I'm a newbie - but only to Internet Marketing and the American Style. Otherwise, I've been in business most of my life - other people's unfortunately, but experienced enough to know what it means. 

And I have learned to teach - so I can judge on the quality of lessons I take. I do not know much about the technicalities of the internet, but I know the 'online life' with all its scams, fraud, deceit. It is a jungle, a swamp, I'm not afraid to put my foot in, but always careful enough to keep the other one on solid ground, so I get easily out again. 

Ok, bookmark my blog, look in frequently, consider it a helpful Newsletter that does not even stuff your inbox. - And join my recommended programs, check them out, all are free - nothing to lose. 

Come on, win with me. To our business success

About my New Home Biz Blog

March 2006... This is the new improved Internet Affiliate Marketing Blog of the (Space)-Biz-Lady Neila~Sabine. I'M STILL GIVING AWAY THINGS LIKE CRAZY. But I need a Blog without all that advertising and more  CONTENT. I don't just tell You JOIN and GRAB IT, I explain why I did, and why You should.

Neila's Crazy Giveaways

will still run in Traffic Exchanges, but only with one or two newest featured posts. Then the content is sorted and put up here, with all the important links and smaller banners.

I still don't have a sales page but am an Affiliate Marketer, and my Blogs are still private, not commercial (although I sure hope it will help me making $$$$$ ) 

Why Not Blog Feeds Instead Of eMail Marketing?

Would You like to receive a Newsletter from me? - Guess, rather not 😁 No need to subscribe, always fearing, I might fill Your box with daily mailings (that would be superfluous work for both of us).

Better idea: BOOKMARK my Page and look in whenever You have time. Just don't miss to really do that! 

Best alternative: adopt the RSS feed to Your Yahoo, MSN, Google or whatever RSS reader You use.  Here it is:

http://neilas-biz-tips.blogspot.com/atom.xml

Hmm... Must check that... Feel free to Email my Posts to Yourself or friends that might be interested - do not spam of course!

Email function off, Feed Readers and Social Bookmarking dead... The new owner of Del.ici.ous (or so) Posted on the HP he had a paid service like that and won't was not going to be so stupid re-open Del.ici.ous for free. 

I found a nice service, which now seems to be on the rise: Pocket (link following, as soon as I find it again). MyBlogLog still exists, but don't find it very lifely. 

If you have the Opera Browser, you can read Feeds. There is the "News" page with a section "My Feeds". You need to open this, right-click on the feed you want to adopt, copy and paste it there.

The same you can do with the eMail program "Thunderbird". "Feedreader" is closed at the moment, but Google said they'll be back. 

And what happened to the giant authority Sites like Digg and Technorati? I heared, that Reddit still exists. But my account is gone 😢 

Well, I must do Neila's Biz Tips and reuse some old posts, when I got my  tags ordered and found out how to delete the delete those I don't want anymore.

Keep in Touch :) 

- Comments and Questions are always welcome. Let's read each other soon
