Plop, Drop, And FlopWritten by Rod Davis
The increase in Internet businesses have again brought a wave of inexperienced marketers. We've all been there at one point or another. You find a great affiliate program, plop them onto Internet, drop that long affiliate URL into search engines and then wait for success only to be met with yet another flop. So how do they do it? How do those experts claim five figure monthly incomes from their Internet businesses. Well, as Shakespeare would say, presentation's thing. As with all businesses online or off, it takes more than a casual approach to truly make a business work.It's not that this issue hasn't been addressed; it's simply that it doesn't seem to be sinking in. Many beginning opportunity seekers are misled by many ads and marketing pitches. This is mostly due to smoke and mirrors approach that companies who are selling business opportunities project. If you are looking to build a solid foundation for your business, follow these time-tested rules of Internet roadway: 1. Decide On A Website Theme. Build a first level domain website around a theme. First you build website and then find affiliate programs. Not other way around. It's important to fold affiliate programs you select into an information resource site that will pull traffic and keep them coming back. Don't just build websites based on their potential to make fast money. Build a website based on your interest in theme and over long term it will be much more successful. 2. Fill It With Useful Information And Resources. Create dynamic resources that will make your website sticky and memorable. A useful informational based website that will rank well with search engines and build confidence in consumer. Look for experts in your field to participate in exchange for exposure. In fact, join their affiliate programs and get paid for that exposure!

Change is scary, isn't it? After all, things might not be perfect right now, but at least we're here and getting through it. Change might make it worse instead of better!But without change, there is no growth, no improvement, and in scientific circles no life. Life is change, and if we're to fully appreciate gift of life, we must adapt to change. OK, on to something a little less important than life - Internet Marketing! If you can't handle change, you better get out now! New developments happen in days and weeks on Internet, as opposed to months and years in regular marketing. If you don't stay up-to-date, you can't compete. I'm not suggesting you jump on every new bandwagon that comes along. Some of them are pretty bad! But if something looks good to you; if something looks like a real improvement, then you have to embrace it. Use it, improve your knowledge, then get ready for something new to come along!
