Step Two: Choosing a niche

Since there are many broad searches done on the internet each day, it is important to narrow you target market. This is defined as a niche. An example of a broad search would be Health and Fitness. In this broad category are many hundreds, or even thousands of sub categories. Some could be, weight loss, cholesterol, strength training, or supplements. In each of these sub categories are even more specific niche categories. You can get as specific as you would like when choosing your niche. A good thing to remember when starting off is to avoid oversaturated categories. These will have tremendous amounts of competition and are not good for beginners. Choose a niche that you are passionate about, as it will keep you interested and focused on the goals at hand.

Always do research for your related keywords to be sure that there is in fact a market for your particular niche. A good tool to use is found at overture.com, called a keyword analyzer. This will show you how many searches are done each month for a particular word or phrase. Choosing a niche can be difficult as you may have many ideas. Pick one you feel is best, and run with it. Write down the other ideas for a future project. Don’t try to do too many things at once. Go to websites like clickbank.com or commission junction to find good ideas.

Step Three: Choose a domain name

There are many websites available for purchasing domain names. I use godaddy.com for mine, but a search on google will show you thousands. For around 10 dollars are year, you can purchase a domain name. Keep it simple! Don’t use ridiculously long names, as they are hard for prospects to remember. Three words or less is a good rule of thumb. Try to make it relevant to you niche. Get creative! There are many word combinations that you can try. Just because you ideal name is taken, doesn’t mean you can’t find something similar that would work just as well. Once you have selected and purchased your domain name, it’s time to get some hosting.

Step Four: Getting a hosting account.

A hosting account is what allows you to put your page on the internet. Again, there are many to choose from. Entry level hosting can be found for as little as 3-4 dollars per month. In the beginning it is not necessary to use an advanced hosting package. Find a reliable company, and sign up for a package that can handle what you would like to do. Most hosting websites will provide you with help tutorials that will show you exactly how to get your web pages published. It is really quite simple. The key here is to jump in with both feet. Don’t procrastinate! Go out there and get some hosting. You can learn as you go, and make the necessary changes for improvement later.

Step 5: Auto Responders

This is crucial! You really should get yourself a good auto responder package. For those of you that don’t know what they are, simply put, they allow you to build email lists for sending out messages to prospects. Having a list is extremely important if you want to build a long lasting business. It is true that you can make money without a list, but with the recent changes to google and other advertising venues, having a list will make your business much more profitable in the long run. I use getresponse.com for my auto responder program, but like the other topics, there are many good companies to choose from. I don’t recommend using free auto responders. I have yet to find a good one. Spend about 15 dollars a month and use a paid program. It will pay off down the road!

Step 6: Create you landing page

The main goal of your landing page should be to pre-sell the customer about the product you would like them to buy. Offer up some features and benefits and why you purchased the program, ebook, or service. Don’t go into too much detail. You goal is to get them to click on you affiliate links. If you bore them with too much information, they will leave before clicking on them. Remember, most people have short attention spans. Keep your page interesting and be sure it flows well. Do a search on pre selling to learn more information on this.

Another purpose for you landing page is to get the prospect to sign up
