Web marketing ideas for the average JOE or JOSEPHINE

Web marketing ideas for the average JOE or JOSEPHINE

Wow! I can't believe I'm actually making my first blog entry on the "Internet Marketing Tips Blog for Melaleuca ." Since this is my first post, I'd like to lay the foundation for what one should expect as I blog away on the various topics listed further down the page.

What prompted this bog in the first place?

Well, after composing articles, training entrepreneurs, and writing eBooks for longer than I can remember , my dog "Herbie" came to me recently in one of those 'dog to man moments'. With his piercing yet lovable eyes, Herbie convinced me that I should devote a little time each week barking (blogging, to use the human translation) about all this weird web stuff that he thinks dominates about 50% of my feeble human brain.

So, if you like this blog you can thank my dog. If you don't, I recommend you adopt your own dog (from a local shelter) and seek internet marketing advice from him :-) Note: cats are pretty good at this stuff too.

So, here we are, and you're now thinking deeply about two things:

1. What might you learn by following Dan's internet marketing tips blog?
2. -and- What exactly dominates the other 50% of Dan Hollings' brain?

I might can help you on the first item, but even I am a bit foggy on what dominates that other 50% on my brain :-) So let's focus on marketing ideas to help you promote Homecare, Nutritional Supplements & Personal Care .

In the beginning all this techno-geek stuff was over my head. Yes, that was about 10 years ago. But now after sucking up internet "how-to" like a vacuum cleaner without an off switch for many years, I've learned a few tricks about making money on the web. I'll cut to the chase and offer you practicle strategies that will increase prospects, customers and visitors to your blogs and sites.

Over the years, I have helped website owners, network marketers, bloggers, internet entrepreneurs, affiliates, and even big companies improve their internet strategies. But what I enjoy most is working with ordinary 'folk'.

I'll be posting tips and stratiegies on anything and everything, as long as it works. It is likely that you are doing some things wrong or inefficiently and if you are like most, you're spending far more money than you should on 'stuff' that has questionable results.

Even though this particular blog will focus on strategies for Melaleuca and how to market Homecare, Nutritional Supplements & Personal Care , I may from time-to-time give examples from other industries or areas to demonstrate a strategy or idea. It's your job to apply the concepts to YOUR particular site, blog, product or service.

A preview of the type lessons I will cover include ideas related to:

• Blogging
• Content creation
• Contextual ads
• Pay-per-click search engines
• Tag-vertising
• Networking through "social systems"
• Lead generation
• Site design (with an eye for profit)
• Landing pages
• Opt-in list building
• Newsletters
• RSS feeds (the why and how)
• Press Releases
• and Making Money on the Web

In addition, I've written a few 'how-to' articles specifically to help get your internet marketing strategy on-track. You might find these internet marketing articles for Melaleuca interesting or helpful.

Finally, you may be asking WHY I decided to do a blog specifically for Melaleuca ? The truth is, I run separate blogs for many types of of entrepreneurs. This is only one of my blogs!

Rest assured I am not a recruiter, I'm not active in any 'company', and I do not sell or share names on any of my opt-in lists. I make my living exclusively by helping others make money online. I'm a consultant and internet systems developer. Occasionally I offer classes, sometimes I offer eBooks, and I have web systems that many subscribers use to improve their traffic, content and results online. That's the deal.

Everything thing I write here is free. And I do not plan to hold back. I recommend you subscribe to my XML or RSS feed (look for the Feed Frenzy buttons in upper right).

Until the next post... Happy whatever...
