Some of the quickest ways to boost sales for a new website

Everyone wants to make money online, but they don't always know where to get customers, and that's why I've decided to write this discussion!  If you are just starting off, you may be wasting your time on advertising and marketing techniques that other people said were guaranteed winners, but in reality, they are not great methods.  Sure, some methods could actually bring in sales and people praise them left and right, but if you were spending 10 hours on one method and getting 10 sales would you keep doing it if I told you that a method with 1 hour invested could get you 10 sales?  Probably not because you would do some simple math and know if you spend 10 hours on the second method, you'll generate a lot more money for the same amount of effort invested Some of the quickest ways to boost sales for a new website

In this discussion I'll be going over PPC campaigns, contacting niche related websites and guest posting, advertising on niche websites, and paying influencers within your industry to boost your sales.  So, let's begin Some of the quickest ways to boost sales for a new website


Run a PPC campaign on Adwords and Facebook
When you want to bring in a good amount of sales in the shortest time frame, you will never be able to do it better than a great PPC campaign that has been tweaked and optimized for clicks and relevancy.  What you'll want to do is proper keyword research and know what keywords will cost more while others will cost less, but you'll mainly want to figure out how you can get the most click-throughs without wasting money and profiting along the way Some of the quickest ways to boost sales for a new website

You can do the same on Facebook, but their targeting is much more elaborate so you'll need to invest a lot more time learning their platform so you can target everything just right.  If you can configure both platforms to bring in the most targeted clicks, for the least amount of money, you'll have a winning campaign 9/10 Some of the quickest ways to boost sales for a new website 

Contact niche related websites to do guest posting
Guest posting isn't anything new, so you likely know what I'm going to cover lol.  Well, what you'll be doing is looking for niche related websites so you can pitch them an idea for some content that would help them out in the search rankings.  Essentially, you'll be optimizing content for their website and linking back to your own, which will boost your own sales and rankings Some of the quickest ways to boost sales for a new website

You're posting quality content on a 3rd party website, in your own name with a backlink to your website, and people will begin to see you as the authority within the niche and come to you if they want to purchase something.

Talk to the same niche websites and try to get a banner up
I actually do this method a lot, because I can find a lot of websites that haven't thought about selling ad space, so I tend to get the placements for a fraction of what they're worth Some of the quickest ways to boost sales for a new website  I remember a while back I wanted to advertise my website on a big backlink pinging site, and asked how much they would charge to do so, but they said they would do it for $0.05 per click and I jumped on it Some of the quickest ways to boost sales for a new website  I didn't think twice about their price because I knew that they had a ton of traffic, and that traffic was great for my website, which made me a decent amount of money.  Now, that partnership went south when they removed my link and tried to still charge me $100 for the "clicks" I wasn't getting, so I told them to go to hell and I moved on lol.

You can do this too, just search through some long-tailed keywords that are niche related, and save each website in a file so you can go through and contact them later on.  Of course, you'll want to check their DA and even their Alexa ranking if they're in the SEO or online marketing niche because you'll want to get an estimate of how much traffic they're getting prior to you advertising on their pages.  Usually, you'll have to pay a one time fee, but some websites will ask for a PPC type model, which you can't really track but it might be worth it to trust them and see where everything goes Some of the quickest ways to boost sales for a new website

Pay influencers for advertisements
Influencer marketing has been on the rise over the last couple of years and shows no signs of slowing down.  What you'll want to do is find the best influencers for your niche, then ask them if they offer promo spots for your own website to be advertised.  Usually, the influencers will accept your offers or they will tell you exactly how much money they need for each post, and this is where you'll have to filter out the greedy from the good influencers. 

The greedy will ask for an astronomical amount, which isn't refundable, so you'll need to start slow and work with influencers who aren't trying to just take all of your money and are more interested in building a business relationship that will last for years down the road Some of the quickest ways to boost sales for a new website  Micro influencers shouldn't be avoided either, they are some of the best converting ads I've ever purchased Some of the quickest ways to boost sales for a new website


In conclusion
Above are a few ways you can boost your sales in a short amount of time, so if you're not doing any of them, I would suggest starting out with one and tweaking it until you're profitable.  If you can get through all of these, and make each of them profitable, you will likely be making more money than you can count and should send some my way lol Some of the quickest ways to boost sales for a new website

I really like your second and third suggestions here! I can't tell you how many times guest posting has come up in these SEO forums and conversations. Obviously, having prominent guests in your niche post on your pages is a great way to generate a buzz about what you are doing. Furthermore, if you can convince prominent people in your niche to advertise or support your own guest posts, then you should also hopefully be able to attract more traffic. I am going to put some sincere thought into these ideas and try to brainstorm bloggers and site designers out there who are doing similar things are or writing similar content like I am.

Well I am assuming guest posting won't really work for blogs that are from a company. For instance, my money website has a blog that I just created last month with 2 articles (i know i need more content) but for there to be a guest post would seem a little odd, right, especially if it is a company blog? This blog is geared towards the "make money online" niche. Having someone come out of the cold (as it were, it's a saying) would to me seem a little odd and especially to my blog visitors. I do not know though because blogs are fairly new to me, even though I have many in the past I just never really used them to drive to traffic but now since I am doing it, it seems a little hectic always trying to create an article that drives traffic that will inevitably drive sales for me. So perhaps a guest blogger would be beneficial for company? I don't know, I just don't want to seem desparate! LOL Some of the quickest ways to boost sales for a new website

Paying influencers for advertisements is what hinders my journey. I do not really have the money to do that. It is true we use money to attract money but there are so manyvurgent expenses to reckon with.

If your posting guest is prominent in the industry or has a tinge of being a celebrity then you are lucky if that person would agree to a guest posting because it is obvious that you are just using his popularity. This is not a letdown to that idea of guest posting of a prominent person but if I were a popular person then what is the reason for me to submit an article for posting on your site?

I totally agree with getting influencer to help you out with the work. They have more access to helping you generate lots of traffic and get potential clients. Their advertisements covers wide range and they seem to be like a celebrity in the field with the power to getting lots of people to take your services hook, line and sinker.

The social media influencers are doing everything possible to ensure that they remain on the work and one way to make it happen is by hiring the ones that are going to deliver on the job. They will do everything to generate real organic traffic to your website as well.

When I first started out, what worked for me was word of mouth. Then I moved on to ad words and that really worked well. Although I've heard lately, the program has somewhat dipped in quality and ROI. The eventual rise of social media was a godsend, and to this very day it's been very effective in boosting sales.

Yeah, I've been reading that Adwords isn't pulling in as much as it used to, which makes sense. You have so many other advertising platforms coming out of the woodworks, as well as other big platforms opening their own, which will make Adwords suffer because people are looking for other sources to bring in traffic.

With just Facebooks ad platform, Adwords probably took a big hit over the last 5 years because of how popular it has gotten. A while ago no one was using Facebook ads, now everyone seems to be using it because of how targeted you can get with each ad Some of the quickest ways to boost sales for a new website

I'm not sure if Adwords is increasing their CPC because they aren't getting as many advertisers, or if it's just normal competition getting tougher due to people making more money. No massive corporation will release the information because it could kill their company lol Some of the quickest ways to boost sales for a new website

I felt Adwords was struggling the moment they kept sending me those offers for free Adwords. Like if I spent $100, I'd get a $100 to $150 ad words credit to use. Which would result in me having $200 to $250 in adwords credit to spend. Not that I am complaining or anything, but it's just that the frequency of which the coupon offers kept coming in, led me to believe something was amidst.

I have tried to ask similar websites such as my money site if I could place a banner, but they asked for an outrageous amount. Last time I contacted a site within my niche to place my banner (they have no advertising or anything) they asked for $5,000 USD a month. That is outrageous and the site does not even get that much traffic for them to price that much for a banner. It seems that whenever i ask to place my banners on sites related to my niche that it is almost always an outrageous price. So I just stick to my methods of advertising. Now, if the sites actually got enough traffic to the point where I could profit by placing a banner advertisement for $5k then maybe I would do it, but that seems a little out of my price range.

So make sure whenever you are placing banners that the traffic will actually convert into sales. Otherwise you are just wasting not only your time but the website's time as well.

Wow, 5k for a banner? lol, it sounds like that website owner didn't understand how to value their traffic and just threw out an outrageous number to see if you would bite Some of the quickest ways to boost sales for a new website

I'm sure there are plenty of webmasters out there getting insane amounts of money for a little bit of money because some large corporations don't understand how to evaluate the value of an ad placement, so they just throw money around and see what works haha.

Yes, $5k USD. Insane really. I do not think I would ever pay that for a banner ad placement for a couple of reasons:

1. I need really have success with banner advertisements, they never converted into sales only clicks (yeah, it is basically traffic but not the traffic I am looking for if I am placing a banner advertisement)

2. I could go on Facebook, and basically input the exact audience I want. Surely it may cost a lot because of bidding and what not but at least I would get my target audience.

I think the most I would ever pay for a banner advertisement for a 200k impression placement would be only $30. No more, no less.

Maybe one of the best approach is your number #3 which is to use an influencer to market your website. Of course, the influencer should be in a similar niche to the niche of your website so the influencer’s followers can relate to the contents of your website. But the downside to that option is the expenses involved. Unless you are close to the influencer, you have to pay the fee for promoting your website.

Yeah, knowing what your niche is and using people who work within the same niche is best in order to promote your website since it makes it easier to find the people who are interested in the contents of your site.

SEO and social media marketing are the two best ways to generate sales. However, it is difficult to rank your website on search engines because of the competition out there. Even if you manage to get to the top results, it is impossible to stay on the top forever. Therefore, you will have to consider other avenues as well. Search engine marketing is another tactics to generate sales. By spending money on marketing, you will be able to make more money.

I do not believe one stays at the top for too long, there will always be someone else that gets to the top. But for Google to constantly be on top of the competition for many many years is a great achievement. I still wonder if anyone would ever try to pass Google in terms of search engine. I know Bing tried, and pretty much failed but I can not wait to see if a small guy, like you or me, try and overcome the search engine giant.

We will never understand exactly how search engine algorithm actually works, therefore, we can never be sure about the best ways to get always on the top, what we can do is do your SEO work and try to outsmart our competitors and reach the top spot. The basic purpose of SEO is getting traffic, you try to gain traffic by increasing your search engine position. You should not be too depended on Google, instead, focus on other traffic generation techniques.

Doing guest posting is an essential way to keep up the spirit of marketing one's new website in the sense that after finishing each post on those popular sites, you can insert the link to your website and those that are keen to learn more from you will like to join.

Also, this is a way to get followers as quick as one can in the sense that many that have visited your website and gotten good information will want to tell their friends about it and this is one way of getting your website advertised without paying a dime for it. I call such move smart marketing and a way of saving cost.
