2. Networking with others is very important. Getting good
contacts will increase your companies chances at
obtaining some great, pre-qualified referrals.
3. I have not heard of one company online that has ever
made it on it's own without any outside help. Sharing
business ideas with others increases your chances at
success.
4. Yahoo Inc, a household name, owes part of it's online
success to small business entrepreneurs who loved to
talk about Yahoo within their website. If you where to
take a look at yahoos link popularity, you would see
incoming links within the millions. Getting people to talk
about your business should be looked at, as something
fun, creative, and inspiring to do.
5. The universe and all it's energy is straight forward,
"what goes around, comes around". Same applies
online.
7. There are many ways to spread good fortune on the
web. For instance, try complimenting people on their
website and let them know that you enjoy visiting their
site. This usually gets a really good response and it is a
great way to start a business conversation.
8. Get to know the people who own popular websites.
They usually hold the doorways to online treasures. We
all search online, some of us daily, some of us once in a
while. We all find different things. You can't be expected
to find them all, the key is to find useful tools on your
own to share with others and they will do the same for
you.
9. With over 4-6 billion websites out there and growing
rapidly, it's really hard to keep up with every new idea
and/or group out there. By positioning yourself with key
people, you will subject yourself to new ventures,
different openings, and better contacts.
10. Popular web sites love to talk about their website, try
and brain storm some ideas on how you can create new
resources for your site by helping others to promote
theirs. Find something related and useful for your
visitors, add it to your site and then tell the people who
provided the resource, they will really appreciate you for
it.
12. There's no better feeling then when someone takes the
time out of their busy schedule to email me and let me
know that my latest article will be featured within their
newsletter this week!
14. If you've followed some of my articles, you would have
read me say before, "increase the content on your site,
daily". Here are a few web marketing methods that you
can not only increase your content but, help others as
well...
16. * Listing their business on your site* writing an article
about them* featuring their products* adding their
banner* writing a review and linking to them* collecting
great tools online* featuring writers from all over the
world* starting online contests* hosting a daily
motivational thought* creating free graphics for others*
featuring "a site of the day"
17. These are only some of the things you can do for others.
Whatever it is, it should be related to what you do.
19. Don't be afraid to hook up with your competitors from
across the globe.
20. Here is one method you can gain major traffic for your
web site by working with competitors that are out of
your market reach...
21. Try featuring companies in Australia while you operate
in Canada. Your website will get Canadian visitors from
their site and vice-versa. The immediate results aren't
what matter, it's when the loop starts to form to each
others search engine results. Their web site will
eventually get listed in Canadian search engine results
and vice-versa. By targeting the same field or profession,
both websites can refer the right people to suit their
area.
22. Once the Australian website starts to attract Canadian
visitors from other search engine listings than your own,
it will then start to refer Canadian visitors that you
didn't have to go get.
23. Don't be afraid to expand you thoughts to neighboring
countries, they too can prosper without ever harming
you as their competitor.
24. I hope this opens your mind to competitors and helping
others!
