Free secret on how to get noticed now and increase your traffic for your website

 

I have found an easy way to receive more traffic to my personal branding site at no cost to me. If you frequent forums and other sites that let you post comments or have a signature to your post, this method is for you.

 

Most sites you and I may visit need a login name as well as a password. I have found by making my login name my branding site website address as well, I can get those extra traffic hits each day. So, why make you login name your personal branding site name? i.e. JayCouture.com = login. The fact of the matter is that people wish to connect with people first and foremost, as they are not interested in what you do, what new plan you are a part of or how much money that can be made joining team “X” without getting to know you personally. This is the power of a branding site.

 

Can you remember the last time you went out to eat at a nice restaurant, or rented a movie or read a good book? I bet a dime to a doughnut at least one of those was due to a recommendation from a friend or significant other. People don’t want to be sold, they want solutions to problems. And the best way to be the solution provider to your home business is to be someone they trust or who’s name has social proof (fancy word for being well known in social marketing). One way to provide this is to let them know who you are and what you are all about with a personal branding website.

 

How many times after reading a great article on a forum, looked at the available authors personal info to see what he or she is all about? If you are like me this is commonplace to see if this is someone I wish to put on my shortlist of value driven information. I make my login name my website address JayCouture.com and by tracking the traffic with a bit.ly or pretty links url I can gauge how much traffic is flowing to my site through this method.

 

In doing this I can see which forums are giving me the most traffic and which ones I should not waste my time marketing my brand name. Did you click on my login name above to see who I was? If you did or were thinking about it you can see the power of this type of forum marketing and use it for other sites relevant to your web-page be it personal or business.

 

Feel free to stop by my site for more free tips and tricks to market yourself as well as promoting yourself on my personal branding page. Until then…keep living the dream! :)

Forum Marketing Made Easy as 1 2 3

Success Leaves Clues

 

I would like to quote one of my favorite authors and a world renown speaker Anthony Robbins. He is well known for his ability to create positive change in the life of individuals. One recommendation he stresses is doing the same thing as those you wish to be like, and you can have the same successes they do.  If you want an award winning cake, take the recipe of a master baker and do exactly what he does and you will get the same results.

 

You may be thinking, “What in the heck does this have to do with me?”  Well, many of us who are not yet gifted in writing excellent ad copy or a sales “call to action” can benefit from the masters of this skill set.  For example, go to any forum you are a member of, scroll down a thread and look at each of the signatures. Which ones command your attention to click on and which ones don’t? If there are any that make you wish to click on the link, write them down. These are usually the ones that others will click on too.

 

There is no need to plagiarize but you can either use the same type of signature in your posts or change it a bit to make sure you are original as possible. For example, I used one I found on a forum that questioned my right to click on a link due to not being a part of his membership club. It was obvious the membership was suggestive only, and only there to tempt me to click, and of course I clicked the link, wondering what the secret was and just out of plain curiosity with a touch of  “you can’t keep me out” or “I wonder what they are trying to keep from me”.

 

I was so amazed by how quickly I was inclined to click.  I now use a version of this signature and have had my first sale with it for over $300 just by using a passive sales technique. Ka-Pow! The secret of this is the classic sales techinque called the “take away” that presents you with an opportunity, then tells you that you may not have the item or service.

 

Try it and see for yourself.
