So you have art you want to sell? Why not market it online? Here are a few tips on how you should proceed. You first step to creating a website should be to have the cleanest pictures you can of your art. Try using a high-resolution digital camera if possible, if not then you may want to shoot it on film, and scan it with a high-end scanner.
Classic film at this point still has a higher resolution than large format digital, but the digitization process could “cheapen” your end product. It’s your choice as a publisher. If you are looking into making film samples, or audio material as demos, then what you would want to do, is to render your files in the smallest format possible, for film I would recommend “multimedia-small 15 frames/second” as your render option, and for MP3’s I would use the lowest quality possible, as to take into consideration those with Low-end computers or slower internet connections. Make your product as accessible as possible. You never know who’s looking, and from where.
You should consult with your web-designer or your search engine optimization company so that your website can be search engine optimized. The reasoning behind this, is that once you put all this work into digitizing your media, you want your website to be seen.
If you aren’t familiar with web design, I would advise hiring an art friendly web designer to help you out with the creating the website. S/He can deal with the technical aspects of creation while you worry about the design. I cannot stress enough the necessity of using an HTML editor that is search optimization friendly. Not so much for the actual design of the website, but for everything that goes on behind the scenes.
When you’re creating a website, there are two aspects to take into consideration. What the viewer is seeing, and how the website relates to search engines. Although I believe what the viewer is seeing is entirely in the hands of the designer, and owner… how the website relates to search engines is where SEO comes in.
How does your website fare with Google, MSN, or Yahoo? This is the province of your SEO, and your web-designer.
This is where items like meta-tags, keyword density, and performance come into play. Your website should be optimized for your location, content, type of art/media. When a web search is run on a topic relevant to you, your website should come up in these searches. If you’re a political artist then you should be getting hits for “political art”, in my case “Toronto filmmakers” or anything specific to your art/media content.
How an SEO can work for you, is that with your search engine optimization company will be able to tailor make your keywords, and meta-tags; so that the closer the search terms are to what you do, the more likely you will get a visitor on your site.
The more visitors you get on your site, the more likely you are to sell your product. This brings you closer to becoming an independent artist who doesn’t need deal with large publishers that don’t have your best interests in mind.
Ultimately what an effective self-driven online marketing campaign will do for you is that it will allow you to sell your product at your price, and for minimal monthly fees you won’t have to sign over publishing rights or licensing, because all the fees, minus operating fees come directly to you.
SEO and online marketing campaigns are available at minimal investment, so if you’re serious about launching your art career, then an affordable advertising campaign may be what you’re looking for.
Simply by improving your site ranking, you attract more visitors. Every visitor is a potential buyer... If we want to use a retail analogy, the more people visit your store, the more stuff you’ll sell.
All it really takes is for someone to see your site when doing a web- search; this will bring you clients and contacts. A very small investment could bring you the artistic freedom you want and deserve.

Injecting Internet Marketing Into Your Marketing Mix
A website and online presence is one aspect of the marketing mix for a business. For the small to medium business, there is no reason for a website to be the sole method of marketing – but by integrating a website into your marketing plan you can drive new leads and generate new business that you wouldn't ordinarily reach using a single avenue of advertising.
Web Address Inclusion
Your website can act as a point of reference for all of your leads and existing customers. Include your web address in all forms of your offline communication. If you post physical products, ensure that the packing slips and invoices have the URL of your website in a prominent position. Your website itself can be used to answer many questions that customers might have, reducing the time and even resource needed to respond to problems and questions posed by buyers.
Optimizing Landing Pages For On And Offline Leads
With any form of advertising it is vital to optimize your web landing pages. Optimizing a landing page means providing the content that your visitors expect. You should direct visitors to the most appropriate page on your website to answer their questions or to make a sale. If you use direct mail advertising and are promoting a specific product then direct visitors to the purchase page for that product. If you are offering your website as a place to get answers to questions or to resolve issues, direct them to the knowledge base or customer service page.
Using Online Advertising To Advertise Offline Business
While some businesses are run predominantly online, many websites are used to promote a bricks-and-mortar business. Whatever the purpose of your business, a website usually offers some form of advantage. The Internet is a global marketplace and provides a genuinely affordable method to promote even the smallest business. Very few other methods level the playing field so clearly between small businesses and large corporations.
Using Other Forms Of Offline Advertising In Your Advertising Mix
Newspaper and radio advertising provide a very direct form of marketing. Few websites can realistically afford television advertising but flyers, direct mail, and less expensive advertising methods are a genuinely viable alternative. Again, the key to success in using these forms of advertising is integrating them within your online marketing mix. Only through good integration, directing visitors to the most appropriate page, and optimizing that landing page.
Summary
Every business requires a good marketing mix. As well as considering the various forms of online marketing, such as SEO and PPC, the website owner should consider integrating offline advertising into their mix. Direct prospective leads to pre-sell and sales pages to improve conversion rates or, alternatively, direct existing customers to support and technical pages to improve your customer relations and therefore enhance customer retention levels. By getting the balance of offline and online advertising right, your marketing mix will help provide everything you need to gain leads, increase sales, improve customer retention, and rocket your profits.

3 Things You Must Do If You Want to Be an Internet Marketing Success
So you've got the vision. You know that with this thing called 'the Internet' you can earn money and get better and better at it as time goes by until one day you'll be able to fire your boss. With so many people online and more and more getting online all the time, somehow you know you'll be able to get enough of them to buy stuff from you for you to make a living, but how do you get started? What are the essentials to making money marketing on the Internet? Below I've listed what I believe are the 3 most important essentials to Internet marketing and the good news is, they're all within your reach!
1. Have your OWN website.
Don't be discouraged if you think you cannot successfully accomplish this because you probably can. This Internet marketing essential is listed first because it's the most important. If you think you can't afford it or that learning to design your website will be too difficult, then you're probably mistaken. Hosting can be had for between free and extremely cheap, and there are free templates and free html editors readily available on the net as well. Now that I've quelled your fears somewhat, let me tell you why having a website is so essential.
If you intend to be successful at Internet marketing you need a foundation upon which to build. Having your own website accomplishes just that. With it you have a base of operations on which you can build a reputation and a customer base akin to your brick and mortar counterpart. In this way your success can (and probably will) start out slow and increase over time as you become more and more well known and build traffic and a reputation. Which brings me to the second essential of Internet marketing; traffic.
2. Get qualified, targeted traffic to your website.
Everyone knows what Internet traffic is even if you've never considered marketing on the Internet, but not everyone knows how to best obtain traffic. If you're just starting out in online marketing, you probably have little hope of gaining traffic by getting listed on page 1 or 2 of Google (or any search engine for that matter) without paying a lot of money to contract the job out to an SEO (search engine optimization) company.
So, how do you do it on a shoestring budget? In a word, 'articles.' Simply put, you write short articles (400-700 words), put your name and website URL in the resource box at the bottom and submit them all over the net. The search engines will eventually index them, so you might get some traffic that way, but what you really want to try for is getting an online publisher to pick up your article and publish it on their website with your resource box included.
3. Build an ever-growing list of prospects.
Having a list is about equally as important as having your own website and traffic, the only reason I listed it last is because you need to have the others before you can begin to build a list. When I say 'list' what I'm talking about is a list of people who are going to be more interested in buying YOUR product than the general public.
How do you build a list? Again, to put it simply, you get an autoresponder (which can be obtained for free) and you exchange something that a person interested in YOUR product would highly desire for his email address. This thing must be of high perceived value, but need not cost anything. Excellent freebies to give in exchange for email addresses are free reports, e-books (which can be as short as 10 pages) and e-courses. All of which you can create by yourself for nothing more than the time it takes you to create them.
To summarize, when you have your own website you can better reap the fruits of any labor you put into your marketing efforts by building on past successes. Any traffic you may have had in the past may return and you'll be able to increase the chances of that happening by getting them to subscribe to your list, which is another way you can build on past successes. When you put these three things together, you have the makings of a solid long term business that's potential is almost limitless. The bounds of your imagination and the time and effort you put into it are the only things holding you back, so get out there and make it happen! Read More .....

Make Money Online With Your Website
Now, we discuss making money online. It means doing online business. Although there are some ways to make money online without a website or product, just like making money online with Google AdWords or other PPC Campaigns, or email marketing or any other ways. We still have to admit that we are powerful and potential with a business website.
It is very similar to traditional business. You have to have a business name and place. Doing online business, you need a domain name and web server to host your website. Who knows it will not be the next eBay or Google. Just imagine, how much does Google have to pay for acquiring a domain like www.google.cn? (It is a true story that Google purchased the domain name to serve China). Forget about free hosting services; find a reliable hosting service. Free domain and free hosting can not be considered for a business website. There are so annoy that your visitors will go away without staying one second.
You have only several seconds or less than 10 seconds to grab visitors' attention. If you fail, then they are gone. Moreover, if you confuse visitors, they are gone. You need to make a website that people want to browse.
Remember that domain names are unique - no two web sites can have the same name (or the same IP address). And many web hosting providers include domain name and online payment as part of the web hosting. Taking advantage of such an offer is the easy way for you to benefit from your business website.
There are many reasons why choosing the right web hosting. Most important, it should be beneficial for your online business. If you don't purchase a package that offers you all what you need to run your online business, you won't be able to attract and retain a faithful client base to expand your online business.
Attractive, convenient and useful plus secure are what you have to think about your business website.
Just imagine, you are a visitor to other website. What are you looking for and why do you stay to see or click? A website's design should be attractive and easy on the reader. Think of your visitors. Think of yourself! Normally, your website should be clean, crisp, and appealing. Pictures work well with text when you express your products.
Navigation should be consistent throughout each page. Take advantage of template to create a structured template and navigation scheme that is consistent for each page of your website. Check to make sure that none of your links are broken. When adding new links to the navigation, make sure it is added on each page. Remember broken links are devastating to your business.
Security is an important feature offered by web hosting companies and another example of how an online business can benefit from the right web hosting. If an online business cannot assure customers that it's safe to enter personal information on the company's website, there's likely to be few people who are willing to take the chance. Especially when it comes to financial information - credit card numbers and bank account information - security is vital.
Without saying how important the utility is. This is the goal that visitors come to your website. Giving a feedback forms, contact information and term of use or policy will improve your utility. Read More .....

Make Money With A Website Without Selling
Using a website to make money online has become one of the most popular ways nowadays. There are several ways you can make money with website:
a) Sell your own products and services.
b) Sell other people’s stuff (affiliate program).
c) Place Google ads on your website and earn whenever someone clicks a Google ad.
The first and second ways take a lot of time and require experience and knowledge of Internet marketing. The third option is much easier and quicker to make money online. To place Google ads on your website you need to first join Google AdSense program. You don’t need a professional look or fantastic site to sign up with Google AdSense program. A clean and simple site will be good enough.
The content of your website can be any topic as long as it does not violate Google policies. You can read more about Google policies at https://www.google.com/adsense/policies. You can write a topic or subject that is related to your experience, area of expertise, interest or background. If you are an expert at something you can make your content valuable and useful to others by providing advice and educational resources.
If your interest and hobby are sport cars, you may introduce the latest models of sport cars and discuss some of the best tools for building the sports cars.
If you have no idea of what topic to write or have no interest at all in writing something, you still can own a money making AdSense site. Your solution is create a website solely to publish articles written by different authors. Just choose one topic or more and put several relevant articles for each topic and place your Google ads on each article page.
Build an AdSense site with minimum cost
Hiring a professional to build a site is expensive. Finding a freelancer to create a website will be much cheaper. However employing a freelancer is still not the most effective way to minimize your cost. The best way to minimize cost is use free website builder to create website. There are several free website builders allow users to build website without experience and technical knowledge. You can find these easy site builders by performing a search from the major search engines like Google and Yahoo. With site builder you can have a website or more absolutely free. You only pay for the domain name and website hosting.
Once you get your website launched. You’ll need to figure out how to drive visitors to your website. Your website will not generate income if no one visits your site. There are several ways to get targeted visitors/traffic to your site fast.
Pay-per-click (PPC) programs
Pay-per-click (PPC) programs allow you to bid for top-ranking positions on the keywords you have selected. When a visitor searches the keyword(s) you bid on and then click through to your site, you pay the amount you bid. The two most popular PPC programs are Google Adwords and Yahoo Search Marketing. However it is costly to advertise on this two PPC search engines and probably you will face the problem of your AdSense earning can’t cover the advertising cost.
Fortunately, there are other alternatives such as Bidvertiser.com, Adbrite.com, Findology.com and so on. I recommend you advertise with Bidvertiser.com and Adbrite.com at the beginning as they are much cheaper to advertise with compare to Google Adwords and Yahoo Search Marketing. Bidvertiser.com and Adbrite.com are not search engine. When you sign up to advertise with them, they will distribute your contextual ads to the categories and websites within their network of your choice. You have no doubt will advertise on those categories and high traffic sites related to you website. You should also consider select those unrelated categories as well because these categories could send you targeted visitors and increase your AdSense revenue. Don’t set your bid too high.
Just anyway from 6 cents to 9 cents should be good enough to drive hundreds of targeted visitors to your site within few days. As long as the daily AdSense earning greater than the daily advertising cost, you can continue your ad campaigns.
RSS advertising
RSS advertising is a free away to gain more exposure for your website. By creating an RSS file and submitting it to those RSS directories and search engines, the links to the content in your website will appear in front of those who read information using RSS readers or news aggregators and as a result driving targeted visitors to your website. Need more explanations? You can go to Google and enter the search term ‘make an RSS feed’. You will find detailed explanations of RSS and step-by step instructions on how to create an RSS file to increase your website traffic. Be patient, it will take you several days to learn and understand RSS. Some RSS sites also show an easy option to make RSS file without knowledge of HTML code by using free software tools.
Give away free content
Another free way to increase your website traffic is write articles and submit them to free content websites. Your articles can drive thousands of visitors to your site within weeks if your content is impressive.
There are other effective ways to increase traffic for your website. You can find a ton of free information and resources about website marketing and promotion from search engines. The more traffic you can drive to your website the higher your AdSense earning will be. Read More .....

How To Make Money Online Without A Website
Gerardo Flores
Dear fellow reader. My name is Gerardo Flores, today I will be sharing with you some ideas you can use to make some money online without having to build or buy a website. I am sure you will find some of the information valuable and useful.
So how do we make money online without a website? With affiliate programs of-course. But with the thousands of options out there, how do you choose the right one? It’s like finding a needle in a hay stack. It’s crazy ! However you can narrow your search a little bit by finding an affiliate program with products that are of interest to you.
How do you know if an affiliate program is right for you? Well, what kind of products would you like to serve? You can choose from digital products, to vitamins, to books, to just about anything you can think of. I would start with finding out what product I would like to move. For example one of the affiliate programs I promote is informational products. Like many experts say, “If you are not sold on the product you’re selling, don’t expect people to buy into your product?” You’ll be wasting your precious time and money if you don’t believe in the product you sell. So find a product that you like and people will like it too.
When searching for your affiliate program, try to answer some of these questions; What kind of promotional tools does your affiliate program offer you? Do they give you sample text ads, or solo ads, maybe banner ads? What kind of support do they give you? Do they have a members forum to answer questions that you might have? How does the compensation plan work? Do they give you a referral bonus? And most importantly, how long has the company been in business? These questions should be answered as you look for your affiliate program.
Now that you found the right company, you need to move the products. This is where your promotional tools that your company gave you come in handy (assuming they gave you promotional tools). The easiest way to promote your company is through solo ads.
Solo ads vary in price, they range from $15 up to $1,000 depending on the size of their list. I would start small, with a least expensive ad. And after you make some money you can invest some (or all) your profits in more expensive solo ads. Don’t underestimate the profit-pulling power of solo ads. If you have a good sale copy you can make some serious money using solo ads.
Make money with “joint ventures”. Joint Ventures can be pretty profitable. First of all you will need to establish a friendship with some webmasters. A lot of these webmasters will have a huge list of subscribers and if you befriend them you can ask permission to send an ad to his list of subscribers, that is of-course if you are willing to share some of the profits with the webmaster. And can be anywhere from 50/50, 30/70, or whatever you guys agree on.
If you have a big enough pocket you can advertise with banner ads. Webmasters will charge you, the price depends on the amount of traffic that website gets on a daily or monthly basis. However, if you did have a website some webmasters are willing to exchange or swap a banner or a text ad. So make some friends with webmasters.

Dear fellow reader. My name is Gerardo Flores, today I will be sharing with you some ideas you can use to make some money online without having to build or buy a website. I am sure you will find some of the information valuable and useful.
So how do we make money online without a website? With affiliate programs of-course. But with the thousands of options out there, how do you choose the right one? It’s like finding a needle in a hay stack. It’s crazy ! However you can narrow your search a little bit by finding an affiliate program with products that are of interest to you.
How do you know if an affiliate program is right for you? Well, what kind of products would you like to serve? You can choose from digital products, to vitamins, to books, to just about anything you can think of. I would start with finding out what product I would like to move. For example one of the affiliate programs I promote is informational products. Like many experts say, “If you are not sold on the product you’re selling, don’t expect people to buy into your product?” You’ll be wasting your precious time and money if you don’t believe in the product you sell. So find a product that you like and people will like it too.
When searching for your affiliate program, try to answer some of these questions; What kind of promotional tools does your affiliate program offer you? Do they give you sample text ads, or solo ads, maybe banner ads? What kind of support do they give you? Do they have a members forum to answer questions that you might have? How does the compensation plan work? Do they give you a referral bonus? And most importantly, how long has the company been in business? These questions should be answered as you look for your affiliate program.
Now that you found the right company, you need to move the products. This is where your promotional tools that your company gave you come in handy (assuming they gave you promotional tools). The easiest way to promote your company is through solo ads.
Solo ads vary in price, they range from $15 up to $1,000 depending on the size of their list. I would start small, with a least expensive ad. And after you make some money you can invest some (or all) your profits in more expensive solo ads. Don’t underestimate the profit-pulling power of solo ads. If you have a good sale copy you can make some serious money using solo ads.
Make money with “joint ventures”. Joint Ventures can be pretty profitable. First of all you will need to establish a friendship with some webmasters. A lot of these webmasters will have a huge list of subscribers and if you befriend them you can ask permission to send an ad to his list of subscribers, that is of-course if you are willing to share some of the profits with the webmaster. And can be anywhere from 50/50, 30/70, or whatever you guys agree on.
