Internet marketing tips for the average JOE or JOSEPHINE

Internet marketing tips for the average JOE or JOSEPHINE

Welcome, it's my first posting to the "Internet Marketing Tips Blog for PartyLite ." 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.

First, let's clear up why I started this blog. OK?

Well, after publishing ebooks, writing articles, and training entrepreneurs for 2000 years (those are dog years) , my supporters, followers, frieds, enemies and even my pooch, "Herbie" have been biting on my tail so long that I've finally decided to invest the time required (each week) posting helpful tips on all this strange and ever changing internet stuff that continues to possess about HALF of my brain.

Now you're thinking...

1. What the heck will you gain by hanging out at this tips blog?
2. -and- If 50% of Dan Hollings' brain is the internet, is the rest hollow?

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 Candles and Candle Accessories .

In a nutshell, I have helped network marketers, website owners, bloggers, internet entrepreneurs, affiliates, and even big companies improve their internet strategies. But what I enjoy most is working directly with the average "Joe" or "Josephine".

I started out not knowing any of this techno-geek stuff. Yes, that was about 10 years ago. But today after acting like a loofa sponge for all these years, I've learned a trick or two about making money on the web. My goal is to cut to the chase and offer you hands-on strategies that will increase prospects, customers and visitors to your sites and blogs.

If you're seeking that 'rubber-meets-the-road' kind of help with your online marketing, this blog will cover 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 PartyLite and how to market Candles and Candle Accessories , 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.

Below are a few of the areas I'll help you with:

• Blogging
• Generating internet leads
• Web page ideas (to increase results)
• Landing or destination pages
• Opt-in mail list ideas
• Content creation ideas
• Profiting from Adsense or Contextual ads
• Search engines and Pay per click
• Tags (the keywords of blogs and...)
• Networking through "social systems"
• The how and why of newsletters
• RSS feeds (the why and how)
• Creating your own 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 PartyLite interesting or helpful.

Finally, you may be asking WHY I decided to do a blog specifically for PartyLite ? 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'm a marketing consultant, a web systems developer, a programmer and a regular guy. All my money comes from helping others create a successful online marketing campaign and clearing the way for profitable results. 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.

All my blog tips are free. I suggest you subscribe to RSS feed (look for the Feed buttons in upper right).

Thanks again for stopping by!
