The Importance Of Using Your Own Domain Name In MLM Advertising

By Carlos Scarpero

When you are promoting your MLM opportunity, having your own domain name is essential if you want to achieve true success. The reason for this is the fact that you need to be different and not appear like everyone else. One main way to look different is to re-direct or cloak your MLM website link.

Once benefit of cloaking your MLM website link is you will be protecting yourself from the spam filters. It’s no secret that MLMers are notorious for spamming. When the ISP gets complaints about a particular spammer, they will often block any and every email from that domain. If you use a re-direct, then you can get around this filter.

Another benefit of redirecting your link is search engine optimization. If you write articles and submit them with a signature file that has your MLM affiliate website link, the MLM company site gets the back links. And what if your MLM opportunity went bankrupt or you decided to pursue another opportunity? You would lose all of your backlinks that you worked so hard to obtain. If you are using your own domain, you would just redirect them to your new business. Wouldn’t that be a much smarter method for doing business?

Finally, your potential downline will be much more likely to sign up if they know that you have taken the time to redirect the link. If you are just promoting your regular website link, you will be perceived as a newbie by your prospects, especially if you are using articles to promote yourself. I personally never check out an affiliate link that is mentioned in a resource box. But I will check out a top level signature file and if that happens to be an affiliate link, so be it.

An even better strategy is to just ditch the corporate site all together. Make your own sales letter in your own words as to why someone should join your team. You should capture your prospect’s email address and send them useful content as often as possible. It is said that it takes a minimum of seven exposures to make a sale and promoting your MLM is no different.

Another option to this is to take advantage of one of the many downline builder websites on the market. The advantage of using a downline builder is you can quickly and easily have your downline also use the downline builder. Again, even with the downline builder, get your own domain and redirect it. Do not promote your downline builder affiliate link.

If you apply these strategies and teach your team to apply these strategies, you will be perceived as a professional and your team will grow quickly.

Profiting with Private Label Articles - The Overview

By James Penn

Profiting from private label articles is a very hot business. There are not many businesses which you can set up and leave and still profit from them months from now. This issue is essentially an outline of a few more methods of profiting from your PLR content.

Sending your list to a PLR article - All you have to do for this method is post a PLR article on your site, edit it a little, scatter adsense around your page, send an email to your opt-in subscribers informing them of this article, post a link to the article and watch as the majority of your subscribers head over to your page and a lot of them will click on an Adsense ad.

Using your PLR articles as blog content - Blogs were one of the new internet phenomenon’s of 2006 and you can use your PLR articles to profit from your blogs. A blog is simply an internet journal which is updated frequently. All you have to do is post one of your edited PLR articles daily to your blog and eventually you will start to see some natural search engine traffic. Obviously you have to promote your blog as you would with a website but they can be set up for free at www.blogger.com.

Selling the PLR articles - If the articles rights permit for you to resell the private label rights to the articles then that is an excellent quick income opportunity. You can sell the articles as is, or you could offer a custom rewrite for a small fee. There are many mediums for which you could resell the articles. You could sell on your website, to your list, as a special offer on forums, from your blog or on eBay.

Creating an eCourse - This method is very much the same as the above one except your subscribers are systematically sent to an article on your website or simply into their email inboxes. This builds your reputation and credibility and you can also promote other products and generate revenue from adsense in each article. When distributing an eCourse, the major mistake many marketers make is pasting the article into their email, rather than directing subscribers to a web page with the article. This enables you to profit from adsense ads, add affiliate links in a disguised manner and give your subscribers a greater reading experience due to the more attractive site design compared to the bland and boring email text format.
