Web Site Marketing is a never ending proposition. Search engines are just one way you can attract visitors. Learning how to turn visitors into sales, hopefully over and over again is the goal of your website. Here are a few Suggestions to help attract people to your website.

1. Allow your prospects to choose between a retail or wholesale price. Of course you need to make a
profit on the wholesale price. Just charge people a monthly or yearly membership fee to always get your
products at wholesale cost. Your business would be like the offline wholesale shopping clubs.

2. Allow other related web sites that don’t have a chat room to link to yours. They’ll get use of a free
chat room and you’ll draw extra traffic to your site. Just publish your ad right above the chat room
area. Your ad will draw extra exposure from all the other web sites sending traffic to it.

3. Increase the perceived value of your free things or bonuses by including the retail dollar amount the
freebies would normally sell for. For example, you could say, “Bonus 1# Marketing Tips Newsletter
(a value of $120).” Another example, “Get 7 Bonuses With A Retail Value Of $345! That more
than pays for your purchase!”

4. Create your own web ring. You will gain highly targeted traffic to your web site and others will link
to your site because they’ll want to join the ring. For example, if you were selling products to net marketers, you would want to start an online marketing web ring. You would then draw your target audience.

5. Tell people the point or focus of your web site. Explain to them what things they can do or which
goals they can accomplish while visiting your site. For example, you could say, “Read 250 Free Net
Marketing Tips So You Can Increase Your Sales! Plus Check Our Wide Selection Of Online
Marketing E-books!”

6. Make your visitors feel comfortable at your web site. Give them your main business address. Your
visitors may not trust you if you’re using a P.O. Box. If you want to make them feel really comfortable,
give them your business, home and cell phone number. Then they will know they can get hold of
you if they need help.

7. Include a FAQ on your web site or via e-mail on an auto responder. This will give your customers
extra convenience without having to contact you. Of course there are some questions you can’t
answer by using Frequently Asked Questions. You will get questions that you never thought of, but you
can just keep adding them to your list.

8. Buy advertising space on discussion board web sites. They are usually arranged by subject; that
makes them highly targeted. For example, if you are selling gardening tools, you would want to advertise
on gardening, farm, tool and lawn-related discussion boards.

9. Start a free e-mail newsletter to create your own opt-in list. Create a title that grabs the readers
attention. Submit it to free e-zine directories on the Internet. Advertise it on your web site. Offer a freebie
or other incentive for people to subscribe. Give your readers mostly original and quality content.

10. Record all your new promotional ideas, good or bad, into an ideas journal. Sometimes you can
combine ideas to create new ones to increase your sales. You never know when you, or someone you
know, needs a new, profitable idea. Plus you could also sell your ideas to other business owners.

These are just a few ideas to whet your appetite towards what you can offer your web visitors.
