Learn about how you can utilize the power of Social Bookmarking to increase traffic to your website from this short video that I did with Jason Marshall (from Next Internet Millionaire) at Ken McArthur’s recent JV Alert Live event.
Below is an awesome motivational short story that will help you be successful in all of your endeavors! Enjoy!
As he went further, he saw a large wild “Tom” turkey in the tree, but he had only one bullet remaining. A voice spoke to him and said, “Pray first, aim high and stay focused.”
However, at the same time, he saw a deer which was a better kill. He brought the gun down and aimed at the deer. But, then he saw a rattlesnake between his legs about to bite him, so he naturally brought the gun down further to shoot the rattlesnake. Still, the voice said again to him, “I said ‘Pray, Aim high and Stay focused.” So, the man decided to listen to God’s voice.
He prayed, then aimed the gun high up in the tree and shot the wild turkey. The bullet bounced off the turkey and killed the deer. The handle fell off the gun and hit the snake in the head and killed it. And, when the gun had gone off, it knocked him into a pond. When he stood up to look around, he had fish in all his pockets, a dead deer and a turkey to eat for his family.
The snake (Satan) was dead simply because the man listened to God.
Moral of the story:
Pray first before you do anything, Aim and shoot high in your goals, and stay focused on God.
Never let others discourage you concerning your past. The past is exactly that, “the past.”
Live every day one day at a time and remember that only God knows our future and that he will not put you through any more than you can bear. Do not look to man for your blessings, but look to the doors that only He has prepared in advance for you in your favor.
Wait, be still and patient: keep God first and everything else will follow.
Pass this on in order that someone else might be blessed.

“Do not ask the Lord to guide your footsteps, if you’re not willing to move your feet.”
Website traffic is the key ingredient to generating revenue from your online business. The good news is that there are many different strategies you can use to increase traffic. I am going to highlight 3 proven strategies for increasing overall traffic to your website, and all of these strategies are free to do.
1. Social Bookmark Websites
Using social bookmark websites such as Digg.com and Reddit.com to build links to your website can really help increase your traffic. The biggest thing you need to do to make social book marking effective is to have good content for them on your website, and also write an enticing headline to encourage more clicks. If you can be somewhat controversial or make a bold statement that will encourage more clicks.
When writing your headline just think of wording that encourages you to click on something. You want the potential visitor to think they would be missing out on something if they did not click on that link.
The other benefit that social book marking has on your website traffic is that it can bring you both short term and long term traffic. The link on these websites typically stays live for a long time, and also many of the social book marking websites pass page rank. This basically means that search engines like Google, Yahoo, and MSN consider that a positive link to your website, so it can have a positive effect on improving your websites ranking.

2. Articles
Writing and submitting articles is an old, but often overlooked method for both driving traffic and increasing your businesses credibility online. When you write the articles you would write them based on your industry. For example if you have a website selling computers, you could write articles related to computers in anyway. Just make the articles informative, and use the about the author section to direct them to your website.
You gain visitors that read your article online and click on the link in the resource section, and also because you get a link back to your website that can help you improve your search engine positioning which translates into more long term website traffic.
To get started write a 500+ word article on a topic related to your business. Once you are complete you can go to your favorite search engine and search for “article directories” or “submit article free”. This will bring up plenty of websites to submit your content to. Two good websites to submit your articles to are www.ezinearticles.com and www.articledashboard.com.
One great tip you can use to find articles related to your niche is to input the follow search string: “submit article” your main keyword. For example if you have a website that sells home interior products you would search for “submit article” interior design. The number of niche specific article directories and websites that accept articles is different for every industry, but you should find some no matter what industry you are in.
3. Online Press Releases
Submitting press releases online is an effective method for building links to your website and also traffic. Most business think of just submitting a press release to your local newspaper, but when you do that you are really limiting your potential.
Most places that allow you to submit your press release online also give you a link back to your website. This link again will help improve your overall search engine rankings, and will also have an impact on building long term traffic.
The other positive note of an online press release is that it gives your business credibility. These online PR websites that you submit to carry so much weight in the search engines that a lot of times when you have your company name in the title of the release your press release will come up along with your website in the search engine results.
This is an excellent method to control all of the information about your business that shows up. You want to make sure that your business looks good online, and this enables you to do that.
Your press release doesn’t have to be huge, but over 300 words will do. Finding places to submit press releases online is simple. Just go to Google and search for “submit press release” or “free press release submission”. Make sure to search in quotes so that it returns that exact result.
If you utilize these tactics above you will get targeted visitors to your website both in the short term and in the long term.

One of the biggest things that I can caution any new person on that is trying to make money online is to not build your business on third parties. When I refer to a third party I am referring to another website. There are many websites out there which enable you to setup free blogs and free mini websites. Please don’t get me wrong that these channels make for some remarkable marketing opportunities, but you don’t want to get caught up in using them as your only website.
It is so important to your business that you have a central website that you have total control and ownership of. You can than use all of these free resources to drive traffic to your one website that you own. My reasoning for this is quite simple. With these third parties at almost anytime they can just decide to remove your free website or blog. If that happened you would lose all of your income if you had built your business on this platform. Instead all you lost was a marketing channel, so you can go a different route with marketing.
You want to be in total control. So all you need to get started with your own website is a domain name and a hosting account. Once you have that you will be in total control to run your business.
Make sure that at all times you are in control of your business, and don’t rely on one source for all of your traffic or your revenue.
Best of luck as you move forward with making money online. Stay tuned to my blog for the announcement of my new and unique system for making money online. To be on the pre-notification list for that simply sign up for my blog newsletter to the right!
