Hello,

Posting on free classifieds sites is the easy way to get
a one way link back to your site. It is much safer than
playing the three way linking game. Google will penalize
sites that do linking in that way as they see it as a "scheme"
to trick the search engines to get a higher listing or links
intended to manipulate PageRank.

Many of the free classifieds sites have a high page rank.
I have been adding the PR to the sites listed in the classifieds
directory at http://everydaybusinessonline.com/adsites.htm

Today I am going to feature Ablewise Free Classifieds

This is a high traffic site where you can post your free or
paid photo Ads in 10 Countries around the world.

For paid ads you have the option of adding enhancements
such as a Red headline, EMOticons and Hyperlinks. Or
you can post a Power Ad.

Posting a Power Ad is the most effective way to advertise
on Ablewise Classifieds. Power Ads are shown on multiple
pages throughout the website (over 2000 pages) including
the Homepage, Photo Gallery and Hall Of Fame, and
appear right at the top of these pages before any other
Ads or content. Power Ads are designed to grab attention
and have consistently generated impressive click-through
rates of more than 85%! Check them out.

Starting A Profitable Business On The Internet
By Shenmeng Bei

There is so much marketing information, softwares,
tips, tricks, widgets and seminars that it can
seem confusing and overwhelming to someone wishing
to start out a business online. There are emotions
to deal with as well, from uncertainty, apathy &
righteousness to joy, peace of mind, clarity and a
burning motivation and desire to succeed. Let's
try to put together a step by step success blueprint.

Firstly, you need a business idea. This may be a
something you have specialised knowledge about or
it may be some kind of solution that you know is
to a common problem, or simply you want to enter
a niche and make money from something that was a
hobby or pastime. Market research does not have
to be a huge task in internet marketing. Provided
you can identify that there is a hungry market for
your product you can create a business out of it.

Step two is to build a website. There are plenty of
templates that will do the job for you. You may
first of all need to learn some basics of how to
put up and edit a website or else hire a webmaster
to implement your instructions. The important thing
about your website is that is has quality content on
it - value that your readers will get something out
of, which will in turn make it more likely they will
want to buy something from your website - you don't
get something for nothing - and it works both ways.

Here's where you can implement some marketing
strategies. Having a list-building component on your
website - such as an autoresponder form which allows
you to collect email addresses and names and to send
out an ezine and announcements to your list. You can
create a spinoff site such as a blog which cross
promotes your site, your products and provides added
value to your customers and prospects. Once you have
a list of about 100 you can start a forum which will
generate more content about your topic and encourage
the formation of a community around what you are
offering.

This is all by-the-by unless you have a product that
people really want. You can start by having a page
on your site that allows visitors to buy an ebook
or an audio about your niche. Provided you are
offering information that has a USP (unique selling
point) - eg it is cheaper, more densely concentrated,
more revealing or better in some other way from
anything else your prospect has seen. You will then
start to have what has been termed as a profit funnel.

A visitor to your site is great. But it is better
that they sign up to your ezine, so you can follow up
with them and give them quality content so that when
you hit them with a subtle or not so subtle sales
pitch or special offer, they'll buy rather than
unsubscribe. Better yet, you'll generate an instant
customer who buys your ebook outright. Primarily,
generating visitors (traffic and prospects) and
turning those visitors in to subscriber prospects and
proven buyers is going to mean you are in business.

These prospects and buyer prospects can also be sold
on higher end products and services too. At the same
time, with a little encouragement, your people will
help you to drive more traffic by referrals, adding
content to your site (via a forum or other user-
generated content such as reviews, comments, a back-
link from their site etc). To get traffic in the
initial stages, you can improve your search engine
optimisation, submit to directories, submit articles
and to get indexed and get traffic, use social
bookmarking sites.

In the last issue I told you about a free ebook by
Clickbank expert, Harvey Segal.

It solves a problem which causes most newbies to quit
affiliate marketing with ClickBank.

You don't even have to fill out any forms or opt-in for
anything. If you haven't already done so, simply go
here and download it now.

It is a quick easy read, written without hype and
not littered with annoying links.
