Guest Article:
JUST WHAT KIND OF WEB SITE ARE YOU ANYWAY?
I thought you might find it interesting to know the six basic types
of web sites proliferating on the Internet. It is through this attempt
to isolate and clearly identify the types of sites we stumble across
on our daily surfing and searching that you may be able to take the
best of the best of these types, mix and match their various features
so as to present your web site in a more definable and user-friendly,
and yes, profitable format.
So let's get started.
1. INFORMATION ONLY -
Information web sites are typified by those that are solid gold
context rich. These types of web sites offer nothing but pure
information. They sell nothing. At least not to the visitor.
Information only sites can be sites offering free items as well as
where to find free items, i.e.; the information. Sites in this
category are always supported by those advertisers anxious to
place their text or banner links in front of the eyeballs of those
people seeking information that is relevant or germane to the
interest of the advertiser. For example, and all search engines
started this way, by the way, a visitor who accesses a search
engine looking for a particular book will quite often find
themselves staring at an animated banner offering
Amazon.com books or other titles in the genre.
2. COMMERCIAL ONLY -
These web sites exist for the sole purpose of selling something,
a product or a service, or an opportunity. These sites are not
advertiser supported. They are indeed the advertiser in and of
themselves.
3. BUSINESS SUPPORT -
These kind of sites typically support and bolster the efforts of the
marketing department of those businesses who wish to provide
more information to their prospective customers in an environment
which enables the customer to select from the information they
seek and examine it in detail. Everything from manufacturing
specifications to engineering schematics to 3-D animated display of
various products and their features are presented on these types of
web sites. These sites further are supported through the business
presenting the material exclusively.
4. ENTERTAINMENT SITES -
These sites are purely for the fun, game and enjoyment that the
internet can bring to a monitor near you. Entertainment sites are
not only ad supported by advertisers seeking to reach the
demographics the site attracts, but also are typically commercial
oriented as well. In other words, entertainment sites very frequently
and no doubt more often as e-commerce becomes more widely
accepted on the net will turn to offering various games and other
entertainment devices for sale at the site.
5. INFORMATION/COMMERCIAL SITES -
Okay - you got me. This really is a combination of the first two.
But, it's appropriately placed on this list of five basics because it is
so prevalent. After all, it's the valuable content information that
inspires the visitor. Once the visitor is there, why not sell them the
product, the service, or the opportunity to which the information
applies.
6. FREE SERVICES -
Free services web sites are quickly growing in popularity -
These sites almost always offer web marketers valuable tools
without having to install any special programming script on their
servers or downloading programs. Examples include free
auto-responders, free page stat tracking, free linking networks,
free banner traders like www.BannerCo-op.com/join,
free direct
submitting, free merchant account processing, etc. Sites of this
type are always ad supported and may even require the service
user to trade banner ad space that the service provider then sells.
Additionally, these sites frequently offer an upscale or
"professional" version of the service for a fee, either one time or
on an ongoing basis.
Go ahead. Throw them all in a bag and mix them up and see
what you get. It's possible to take an entertainment site and turn
it into a commercial site, just as much as it is possible to turn a
business support site into an information site which does more
than passively support the business but actually draws the visitor
as a result of the valuable information, and hence, new prospects
to the companies front door. You can take an information only
based type web site and very quickly turn it into an info/commercial
site, and while you're at it, why not seek out those advertisers who
wish to reach the visitors your site attracts and support the web
sites efforts with even more revenue from these hopeful advertisers.
For fun and profit mix and match all you want - there are
NO RULES!

Useful Sites:
It took me some time to get to the Make My Site Sell web site,
http://www.sitesell.com/secrets4.html
but I finally got a chance to
do that this week. WOW. Hands Down, no questions, dare you to
contradict me, I was DUMB for not going sooner. The free
downloads are worth more than what other authors are charging for
their courses. The book being sold online for a paltry $17 beats the
tar off of some other courses that I HAD been pretty impressed
with . . . until now. Frankly, if you are SERIOUS about selling
ANYTHING online, you MUST go to this site. You can bet
Cory and Marlon and Jim and others are wondering why this book's
author is revealing so much for so little. Perhaps they think Ken
Envoy is dumb or crazy. I think Ken is crazy like a fox. He is
laying the groundwork for the future, both his and yours and mine,
unless you prefer to remain ignorant of what works and what does
not in selling your site and product/service.
Get the FREE Downloads now to see what the fuss is all about. http://www.sitesell.com/secrets4.html .
In fact, to help encourage
you to do what you should do for your own sake anyway, if you
look at just the stuff you can get for free, including his excellent
information on making an affiliate program successful, which you can
get for free when you become an affiliate, regardless of whether you
buy the book or not, and you are not impressed, contact me chris@stealthpromotions.com and tell me why
you are not impressed,
and I will submit your site to 10,000 FFAs once each week next four
weeks.
I LOVE this book and the information you can get for free and the
concepts and the way Ken speaks to you in person instead of talking
down to you from the mountain tops (like you may have felt while
going through other w-a-a-a-a-y more expensive information products
you can buy elsewhere.) Don't misunderstand me, I really liked the
other packages, I just wish they had been as understandable and
clear as this book.
I would love to buy a copy of this book for each and every one of you,
but I can't. What I can do, is give you something that I have been
selling on my site for $40. For everyone of you who will buy Ken's
book from my link at http://www.sitesell.com/secrets4.html
and you
let me know it, upon confirmation, I will send you a free copy of the
media contact list that I am selling on my web site at http://www.stealthpromotions.com/presslist.htm
. The media contact
list will be in a spreadsheet form that you can use immediately to
bring your site to the attention of radio, TV, and print media. I have
sold it for $40, but it is yours free as a bonus when you take Ken
up on his no risk offer to buy his book. Ken gives a complete money
back guarantee - which frankly I doubt he will every pay a refund to
anyone because the book is that good.
Seriously, stop right here, right now, and take a few minutes to visit
http://www.sitesell.com/secrets4.html
See what OTHER well-known
online marketing experts are saying about this book. I don't care if
you don't believe me, believe them instead, just get the book, then
take advantage of my offer for the media list which I am selling for
more than twice what you will pay for Ken's book. Really, do it
now, go to http://www.sitesell.com/secrets4.html

Mixed Bag:: Editor's Ramblings
Been on the quiet side in cyber land this week as many of took a
holiday. Hope you enjoyed yours, if you did.
Well gang, the free PC finally showed up this week. It is happily
humming right next to the workhorse computer. At 333 MH, it is
zippy enough. Its 56 K modem is as good as it gets (short of DSL
or cable modems.) I wish it had a bit more memory than the 32 meg,
but never kick a free computer in the mouth, or something like that.
OK, so can I see anything? What is it good for? Freepc.com has
the bottom two inches set to take me to partner/advertiser sites. As
I look at the screen, I can put about 5-6 of the Windows' menu bar
inside the same space. That is a lot. The current list of advertisers that
fill the left side of the screen (again, about two inches of my 15 inch
monitor) changes from time to time, but seems to be rotating maybe
8 ads in the four ad space. Freepc.com has already told me that I
will be updating their half of the 4 gig hard drive from time to time.
I promised them 10 hours of use per month. I will easily exceed
that in a week. I am considering adding some software that will let
the new computer go online in the middle of the night to do some of
the tasks I do in the background during the day now. If I did not have
any other computer, I would be more critical, but the free PC, free
ISP and the fact that I own it after donating 30 months of time to this
project make it worth it to me. You can still apply for your PC at
their site http://www.freepc.com/ but the first
10,000 have been
spoken for, and they are waiting to see how we test mice respond
before they start looking for more willing participants.
I expect AllAdvantage to hit 2 million members by the end of this
month. Still no veiwbar here, so many, many of you may be waiting
too. Rumor is that AA will be doing something special for active
sponsoring members (20+ sponsored or something like that.) I think
they can put many minds (in and out of AA) by releasing the promised
viewbar. Meanwhile, GoToWorld is live, but having some bugs with its
banner-serving software. When running, it shows a good variety of
advertisers, and its site now has advertising rates posted. GTW is
still an baby, but is up around 125,000 members, and it will explode
as more promote the concept. Join in, or watch these elephants of
free opportunity pass you by. See the links below for details.

8 Important Things To Ask Your Visitors!
(c) 1999 L.D. Publishing By Larry Dotson
1. Ask visitors to bookmark your web site. There are millions
of web sites on the internet. Do you think they'll remember
to come back to yours?
2. Ask visitors to subscribe to your e-zine. This will remind
them visit your web site again and also get your ad in front
of them a repeated number of times. This will increase
chances of them buying your product or service.
3. Ask visitors to link to your web site. Make sure you give
them a good reason to link to your web site. They could
offer your freebies to increase their traffic or you will link
to their web site in return.
4. Ask visitors to make your web site their start-up page. Only
ask them this if your web site is a major online resource or
service. Ask yourself if you would honestly make your web
site a start-up page.
5. Ask visitors to order your product or service. Your sales
will increase by simply asking for the sale. All they can do is
say “No”.
6. Ask visitors to sign your guest book. You'll get compliments
and ideas on how to improve your web site. Get free
advertising by sending them a thank you e-mail with your ad
included.
7. Ask visitors to give you testimonials after they try out your
product or service This will remind your customers to give
comments. Using testimonials on your advertisements can
skyrocket your sales.
8. Ask visitors to participate on your message board, e-mail
discussion group or chat room. When you answer people's
questions in these communities you will build yourself as an
expert. People will begin to trust you and then eventually buy
your product or services.
