Internet Business

If you've already taken a look at the Table of Contents to this e-book and noticed all the chapters ahead of you, you may well be asking yourself why I've written so much, instead of
merely listing the 1-2-3- steps to attain high traffic volumes.

Simple answer... as usual, I've over-delivered.

The formula is, indeed, a 1-2-3 formula, and I’ve even built in some “resting places” along the way where we can look back at where we are and summarize our 1-2-3 steps.

But I want you to understand the logic as well as the mechanics. Don't you just hate those so-called educationalists who, when asked a reasonable question, answer "Because that's how it is.”?

I think you deserve better than that, so I want to take the time to explain why a particular strategy is the best one to follow. I want you to understand, because the Internet is a constantly changing environment and you need to be able to adapt to it in the future.

I want to give you so much that you will recommend this e-book to all of your contacts. Particularly since I've overloaded it with information, step-by-step instructions, detailed examples, hot resources, techniques, tips, secrets, web traffic programs, and much, much more.

If you're an IMPATIENT reader, I urge you to STOP!

I’m all for enthusiasm, but don't sweat the detail.

DO-NOT-SWEAT-THE-DETAIL

I'll be giving you something to do any moment now, but meanwhile, this chapter is the key and it deserves your time and concentration.

This is important

This is the ONLY way to get hundreds of thousands of visitors to your chosen site(s) without buying advertising.

I'll also be showing you ways to get traffic that isn’t totally free. Usually at very low cost (sometimes just a one-off purchase of a piece of software).

Whatever it is, you can be sure that, if I do recommend a purchase,
a) I will have tried it out for myself.
b) The expense will be well worth the outlay.

This chapter is about more than what steps to take and what buttons to push. You will need to concentrate hard (please). Take time out to read this chapter over again if necessary. Only then will you fully understand the unlimited potential you now have in front of you.

HERE’S WHAT I NEED YOU TO UNDERSTAND…

There's a full recipe involved here. It's more than just eggs and flour and milk and sugar. It's about WHEN to add the flour, HOW to beat the eggs, WHY you should stir slowly. Telling you the ingredients is useless if I don't give you the rest of the recipe.

That's how some people make big fortunes on the Internet. They'll sell you a list of ingredients but ignore to provide you with the cooking instructions. (Probably because they don't know them.)

There are NO missing pieces in this book. As long as you follow through with me, chapter-by-chapter, piece-by-piece, in the right order… and as long as you ACT WHEN I TELL YOU, you can be sure that, by the time you get to the end, traffic will already be pouring into your site.

And THE BIG SECRET (the one that nobody else is telling you, because nobody else understands it) is HERE, in this book, in VERY CLEAR PRINT. You will know it when you see it. That’s a promise (and I’m very good at keeping my promises).

The contents MAY earn you thousands of dollars. They may not. It just depends how good your products are and how you use the information in this book. All I can provide you with are the details of HOW and WHERE and WHY. It’s going to be up to you use the information wisely. The best chance you have of succeeding is to let me take you by the hand and guide you step-by-step through the minefield that’s called traffic-generation and out the other side, all in one piece.

This guide does NOT exist anywhere else. Sure, there are bitshere and bits there - part of a program here, part of a programthere - an interesting chapter from an e-book here, another chapter there. Putting all the pieces together has been hardwork, believe me. It's taken two years of trial and error.Expensive mistakes. Battles lost. Lessons learned.

But I had to go through the pain to understand THE BIGSECRET

You can benefit from my mistakes.
So why have I decided to reveal the jackpot to anyone and everyone? Why not guard the knowledge for myself?
Easy... I firmly believe that ambitious people should help each other live the lives we dream of. You only have to read my Newsletter to know that. (If you haven't already subscribed, you should.)
I'm tired of seeing people with dreams and vision working for peanuts. It's time all that changed.
Hey!... I want to change the world…

Writing this opening chapter is tough. I wrote a novel called Paperchase. That was tough and took several months. This is harder...

I want to be precise. I want to explain to you step-by-step. I don't want you scratching your head, and wondering what I mean. I want to be crystal clear.
What makes it tougher is that none of us have the same experience and background. For you, some of the steps I explain will be stupifyingly obvious. You may already be applying them. For other readers, this information will come as a total revelation.

If I don't give you ALL the steps AND the perfect strategy, and wrap them in a foolproof combination, it will be like having part of the recipe and wondering why your omelet tastes like a cold pizza.
An egg is an egg but, as you know, eggs are used in lots of different recipes, and one small change in the method of cooking can completely change the result.
I'm not telling you this because I think you're stupid. If you were stupid, you wouldn't have bothered getting this far. But some people are so impatient to put food on the plate, they ignore therecipe.

Please don’t do that.
You may already know some parts, some ingredients, and think that you already knew this stuff. But I want to demonstrate a STRATEGY here. So stop examining the ingredients and study the recipe. It's the right combination of ingredients and cooking method that makes the omelet, not the fact that you're using an egg.

One thing is sure; even if you've read all the books like I have, you’re still reading this one. Which suggests to me that you haven't yet discovered the TOTAL strategy. If you had, you would already be getting unlimited visitors to your web site, and you wouldn't be reading this.

Maybe you already know most of the ingredients. But what you're getting here is THE RECIPE as well.

The first surprise…

There's only ONE kind of traffic - the sort that brings visitors to a Web Site!

That may not sound like earth-shattering news, but I felt it needed saying since some well-known traffic ‘gurus’ are trying to suggest that affiliate traffic is somehow different to owner traffic.

Well that's bunkum!

Traffic is traffic – Period.

It might look different. It might come from a different place. How you use that traffic might be different. But a visitor is a visitor, is a potential customer, is a source of income.

Sure, the recipe you need to follow as a web site owner may vary slightly from the recipe for an affiliate, but the differences should be blindingly obvious. For example, a site owner is going to include ways of attracting new affiliates in his recipe. An affiliate is not.

I'm sure I don't need to explain that.

And in case you're wondering what the difference is, the definition of a Web site owner is someone who controls his own product. The affiliate promotes someone else's products.

The site owner's role is to do everything INCLUDING the promotion. The affiliate's role is to do nothing else BUT the promotion. That might go against some current theories but, to most (sensible) people, it's as obvious as the nose on your face.

Easy definition...

Can you set up your own affiliate program and create your own network of promoters from the web site you want to direct traffic to?

Answer: YES --- You are a site owner.

Answer: NO --- You are an affiliate.

This is the only difference

Site needs will always vary…

At my site, TheTrafficJam.com, I have a link where people can become affiliates, and I concentrate on making sure that I get a great traffic-to-sale conversion rate.

For another site, TopProfits.info I urge people to subscribe to the Newsletter so that they gain entry to the private site and find out what stunning offers I have there. In other words, I'm just getting visitors.

For yet another site, www-websites.com, my visitors are very targeted individuals who are there for a very specific purpose. My traffic-pulling methods have been tuned to that particular
market.

BUT VISITORS ARE VISTORS ARE A POTENTIAL SOURCE OF INCOME --- OKAY? Which debunks one smokescreen theory being put forward by a so-called traffic guru right at this moment.

During the course of this book, I will make it totally clear to you when a certain method of getting visitors is only suitable for one particular type of situation (affiliate or owner, as defined
above).

What I INSIST you do, if you want to succeed, is to USE ALL THE METHODS that are appropriate to your particular business.

It's like a big jigsaw.

If you use some of the pieces and reject others, you'll become frustrated trying and failing – trying and failing. Because, without all the pieces, you never get to see the big picture.

And if you're an owner, one of the secrets I'll be sharing in the next chapter is how to find SUPER AFFILIATES. Affiliates whose sales are TEN TIMES anybody else's.

But for now, whether you are owner or affiliate, I've got some GREAT NEWS for you.

Not only are you going to stop advertising to surfers, you are actually going to STOP ADVERTISING.

I want you to erase all the conventional theories you've read elsewhere - usually from people who are trying to sell you some advertising. Starting RIGHT NOW, I don't want you to part with a single cent for advertising.

You may choose to spend a little on some different sorts of programs, but you’re not going to part with your hard-earned cash to buy straight advertising.

From now on, you’re going to use other ways to attract visitors to your site.

And here's the FIRST STEP in gaining that Financial Independence...

No matter whether you see yourself as site owner or affiliate, I want you to sign up for a free scheme that will build and build over the coming months to provide you with a steady stream of traffic way into the future.
This first step is indispensable to attracting long-term traffic.

Despite the blurb that I read in one (in)famous e-book on traffic-getting, there’s NO instant silver bullet that will turn your site into a fun park for lost surfers.

What I’m proposing you embark on is a steady, responsible system to build long term traffic (and produce some substantial residual income as a byproduct).

THE FIRST STEP is a plan that combines multiple programs together to feed each other automatically and create a synergy that will surprise you. The exponential growth can be quite
staggering if you follow the instructions carefully and patiently.

I want you to GET REGISTERED FOR IT NOW

It takes a while to implement the whole scheme and if you get registered now, you can be completing the process bit-by-bit as you read the rest of this book.

GO NOW to my instructional pages at “10000hits” and take a few moments to understand the scheme before you sign up (for free). The results will be truly amazing and well worth the time
and effort that it takes to complete the whole process. Eventually, you will have an unstoppable advertising machine.

(If you are already participating in the 10,000hits program, you don’t need to sign up for it a second time. Just make sure to push on towards Gold Status as quickly as possible. It’s an important step in the whole TheTrafficJam™ Formula)

If you’re not registered, PLEASE DO IT NOW.

See, I told you I was going to get you doing something pretty soon.

Now Go!

Congratulations, you've just taken the first step on the road to getting all the traffic you want at your chosen Web site(s).

Ok, let's get back to where we were...
Here's the cry I hear from a lot of people... "Gee, I only want to push a few buttons and get visitors on my site. Where are the buttons?”

Sorry, but it's not as simple as that.

I will show you the buttons as we go, (I’ve already shown you the first one), but if you don't learn when and where to push them, you will end up nowhere.

You MUST take the time to work through this book methodically and undertake each step, one at a time. Don’t worry; I’m not going to leave you alone halfway through.

If you cheated and didn't just sign up with 10,000hits, please DO IT NOW. The other option is to put this book in the trash and forget about getting free traffic.

If getting thousands of visitors a day on a web site was as simple as pushing a few buttons, don't you think that everybody would be doing it?

Again, back to the script…

You’re going to come to understand that my techniques are different. My methods work - but only if you let them. So allow me to explain ONE VERY IMPORTANT THING before we REALLY get started.

Question: What is the best source of free traffic on the Internet?

Too tough to call?

Okay, what do you prefer?

1) You are surfing merrily, minding your own business when 'bam' you get hit by a flashing banner ad. Ten seconds later, three boring ads jump out and poke you in the eyes. Two minutes later, a page filled with flashing links, spinning gifs, scrolling banners and blinking text…

Or...

2) You receive an e-mail containing your favorite newsletter, which you read every week and now trust. The writer recommends that you visit a site because it allowed him to solve a common problem.

If you're like 99.99% of the people that make up the Internet community, you will follow his recommendation in preference to the page full of flashing lights. In fact, statistics show that a testimonial gets a response rate between 10% and 50% compared to less than 3% with traditional online advertising.

Why?

Because we don't trust advertising but we do trust a recommendation or a testimonial from a satisfied customer.
