According to Julie Neidlinger, “An email autoresponder easily makes use of the blog content you’ve already created. Most readers haven’t read everything you’ve written, nor have they read it in sequential order. Your email autoresponder groups related topics together and packages it neatly for the convenience of your readers, delivering it right to them.”

In this article she details the reasoning for an email autoresponder course. You must have an autoresponder if you are doing business online. This article shows you how to use an autoresponder course as the prize or gift download for getting people to subscribe to your list and accept your emails.

Plenty of people want to make money online. You need the proper mindset and a willingness to stay the course. Do not fall for advertising touting scams of earning money for doing nothing or getting rich in 30 days or any other thing that sounds too good to be true. Success is not easy. Once you have decided to venture out into the Internet world for business, these three keys to online success will help.

Build an Online Presence

 
You must be willing to invest in yourself and your future business. Building an online presence is as simple as setting up a web page or a blog. First you need to purchase a domain name. Then I suggest setting up a WordPress blog using your actual name as the domain name. If your name is already in use, you can use a hyphen between your first and last name or use something like YourNameOnline.com or YourNameMarketing.com. Take time to come up with what you want to communicate as your business or your niche, because you will probably not be able to change it.

 
Create a Product for Sale Online

You may be wondering how you can create a product, especially if you are just thinking about starting a business online. Do you have something that you are truly good at and love doing? Do you have a hobby? Is there a subject that you know a lot about? If so, you have a good beginning point.

You can write an ebook detailing how to implement what you do or make short step-by-step videos demonstrating the process. You can blog about your expertise and put it into book form at a later date.

Drive Traffic to Your Product

Once you have your product you can sell it through your site. Join some safelists and traffic exchanges so you will have places to advertise. You will need a LCP (lead capture page) to get peoples’ name and email to start building a list. These will be filtered through a funnel via an autoresponder. As you are building your list, you are posting valuable content on your blog at least once a week. Less often will get you nowhere as far as an online presence is concerned.

You must be prepared to be “in” for the long haul, as things usually do not happen quickly. It takes patience, persistence, and perseverance as with any business. If you have money to invest, your progress can happen faster, but you can also lose a lot of money, especially if you are a newcomer to online business. There is a learning curve, so do not be too hasty. Check things out before diving in.

Setting up an online presence, creating a product to sell, and driving prospects to that product are the basics for making money online. If you are willing to do the work and stay the course, following these three keys to online success will help.

Do you have an online presence? Blogging is one way to establish an online existence, especially if you have or want to start a business. If you are already set up with a blog, you most likely know about the four benefits of article marketing that I am presenting here. If you are a beginning blogger, you can use this information as you move forward. Article marketing can bring more visibility to your site and establish your authority. Use article marketing to add fresh content to your site.

Content

Fresh content keeps your blog up to date. People will want to return to your blog when you share new, useful information, especially something that will solve some problem they may be experiencing. You can use a call to action in your post that invites people to purchase an item you may be selling that will solve their particular difficulty. As you make more posts, your site visibility will begin to increase.

Visibility

Once you gain more visibility in the search engines you begin to look more authoritative. When people do searches and they find your site, you have the opportunity to make more sales. It stands to reason that the more problems you solve the more people will follow you, making you an authority.

Authority

One of the best ways to showcase your knowledge and skills is content that can help your audience. When this is accomplished, you can become an authority figure in your business.

Communication

You can share your blog content on social media to encourage communication with your target audience and then use those channels to promote audience participation.

Adding fresh content to gain more visibility and establish your authority, and maintaining communication with your audience are 4 Benefits of Article Marketing.
