Marketing Madness - It's All About Traffic

There is a lot you can learn down the rabbit hole. The internet is changing. I've seen budding social networks that are seeking to combine Facebook with YouTube - and share the advertising dollars with members. And I've also seen advertising platforms that want to pay people to watch ads. But I digress.

I have come to a deeper understanding that marketing is all about traffic. You need a lot of traffic to make money on the internet, And that traffic has to convert to customers and contacts. I don't know if that is completely right, but there is to be a lot of interest in building the list. And the list is all about contacts.

I found there are mini Facebook hubs where marketers are almost getting together but not quite. I don't think the marketers have had the opportunity to spend time helping one another. That said nothing I have seen so far can hold a candle to WA.

It would be easy for me to quit marketing because I do not like it. However, it seems like the most critical piece to my make money working online effort so rather than back off and head to my comfort zone; perhaps I should throw myself into the deep end and sink or swim. No, not that! I just envisioned my work and living space a mess of marketing materials and that won't work. Marketing is already taking a huge bite out of my time and energy. I will not have it taking up any more space in my life.

What I need to do is find my marketing niche. My marketing comfort zone of building my contact list which will probably be one person at a time - and I'm back at square one. Any ideas - all advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing, Kundi.

Hi Kundi,

Yes, organic traffic is very important, specially if the website owner doesn't spend much money on marketing.

But I have found a shortcut. Content creator plugins create text,images and videos in seconds.

Now,if we have 1000 good posts on each site,google and our social media followers
will not ignore the site,as a site with 1000 good and relevant posts IS an authority.

Any thoughts?

Max

Thanks Max, Thanks for the advice. I will find and use the constant creator plugin. I also like your idea about 1000 good posts, but then again I do love the writing part.Thank you. :)

That's great.Content creator brings videos,pix and links(like) amazon links.Then you can add your own text, if you like.And for the days that you wanna add 5 ,10 or more posts a Content Creator comes in handy.
You can do a google search for
'Best Wordpress Content Creators 2019',
read reviews and choose the one you like.

Good luck,
Max

A lot of traffic
Or
Targetted traffic

Best is to have a call for action
And to work with social media

Thank you, Fleeky. Targetted traffic by all means. I do try to work with social media but that is yet another skill that I don't have. Thank you for your advice.

It will come up in the training in due time
First rings first

I visited your profile and found that you have contributed quite a lot to the WA community in blogs and training. As I was browsing your trainings, I came across the one on business plans (https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/make-a-business-plan) business plans contain marketing plans and I should have one of those. So thank you again.

Most welcome
So glad you liked it

Just blogging about my own findings
and trying to keep it simple

To you
❤️
