How To Create An Internet Presence In 10 Minutes

Filed under Keys to Success

When I started out on the internet in the late 90’s it wasn’t as easy as it is today
to get online and have a presence quickly.

How To Create Internet Presense In 10 Minutes

There were ways to create websites, but without knowledge of HTML or the desire to
learn about web design it was a challenge.Most people invested large amounts of money
to have their websites designed.

Today any and everyone can create a web presence online overnight. Yes! You can
have a web presence overnight. However the key is this, doing it right.

I was online in the 2003, but it wasn’t right. The same struggles many are having
today, I didn’t know the key and pivotal elements to getting started online right.

How can one do it right?

1., Blog – Getting a blog is one of the fastest and cost effective ways to getting online
today.

Blogs are easy to update, which means there’s no need for a webmaster to make small
and minute changes.

The cost is either free, small base fee or you can host it yourself. It all depends your skill
level.

One thing, they are built to help you get started right. Search engines love blogs because
they fuel their engine with content.

2., Keywords – These are the keys your audience use in order to find you online. I didn’t
provide my target audience with a set of keys.

Let’s say you have a blog or a website and you’re not getting the results you want. It’s
possibility you haven’t defined your keywords.

This is where a lot of people go wrong online. This is where I struggled. Without keywords
and keyword phrases your website or your blog will forever be lost in the abyss.

These are two strategies I use to capture my target audience, to drive traffic, and build my
business. You can learn all seven key steps when you join me Thursday evening as I present
an online workshop titled 7 Key Steps On How To Get Started RIGHT As An Author Online
OVERNIGHT.,

In this workshop you’ll discover…,
- Key Elements to a Domain Name,
- Internet Presence In 10 Minutes,
- How to Increase Book Sales,
- How to Systematize Online Process,
- Powerful Customer Getting Methods,
- and a lot more,

11 Ways You’re Shooting Yourself and Your Business in the Foot,

5 Ways To Improve Sales Through Your Website

11 Ways You’re Shooting Yourself and Your Business in the Foot

August 19, 2009 by C.F. Jackson  
Filed under Keys to Success

I’ve been online since 1993 when it was still in the DOS stage of life, but as it grew, I of course allowed my knowledge to grow. Going from pleasure to business was a complete mind shift for me back in 2001.

However, if I’d allowed the below 15 ways to shooting yourself and your business in the foot to kill or even stagnate my growth you wouldn’t be reading this today.

Over the years I’ve heard the battle cries and struggles of many people: online or face-to-face. And what I’ve collected are common denominators to the lack of success: business or personal.

I have struggled with many of these self-afflicting symptoms. I recognize a lot of them daily within my day-to-day travels.

Today, I’m sharing with you symptoms that are harming to many entrepreneurs, authors and small business.

1. Free Mindset – Are individuals who look and expect for everything to be free. I’ve seen it where people refuse to invest $10 for a domain name. Even that is too much to ask.

Often he/she will constantly seek out the only the cheapest and free methods as they drive up the ladder toward success.

2. Constant Complainers – Are individuals who spend their time finding fault and disliking everything under the sun. Ask them to do it better, they wouldn’t know how.

3. The Non-Reader – The reason these individuals fail achieve the results or answers they’re looking for is due to their inability to slow down and read.

Reading is fundamental!

4. Do It My Way – Are individuals who want everything delivered in the exact way they would do it. More often than none, they’ll miss out on one time opportunities.

It’s an unwillingness to open one’s self to new a way to receive information.

5. Overly Skeptical – No matter how much they’re struggling with, let’s say web traffic, this individual will talk themselves out of investing 50 dollars to achieve results.

I myself understand the fear of being burnt because I have invested thousands into a program that didn’t deliver what it promised.

6. Not The Right Answer – Are individuals who will suck up the time and knowledge of another person to get an answer to their dilemma, but the answer entails for “too” much work, then for them it wasn’t the right answer.

7. Quick, Fast, & Hurry – Are individuals who always want results yesterday without the leg work or the building of the foundation.

How do I get web traffic? I need to sell XYZ amount of books in three months.

8. Cornered – Are individuals who will remain in the corner, rather than branching out in order to increase their skills and their network.

9. I Can’t – Are individuals who allow the phrase ‘I can’t” dictate their abilities online or offline. They have the capillarity to do a lot more once they take away the belief of  “I can’t”.

The word can’t shuts down one’s ability to move.

10. Network – No matter how many contacts, Twitter followers or Facebook friends one may have, it doesn’t compare to having a network of colleagues one can connect with locally.

It took a minute for me to step outside of myself. I have a mastermind group that has helped me immensely. You can find one in your area on MeetUp.com

11. Look At Me – Are individuals with social networking ratio of 90% look at me and 10% of by the way here’s something I found.

People are turned off to constant self-pointing. The way people will notice people when they offer solutions. When it comes to commanding attention is when individuals bring value into each place they enter into… online or offline.

There are others that weren’t mentioned above and some you already know about yourself. If there’s ever a time to put the gun away and place a bandage on your wounds to start the healing process, then that time is now.

Make a commitment to yourself, then to your business to change one thing a month that you’ve been shooting youself in your foot with. Now, if it’s a bunion keep on shooting. I’m joking!

Seriously, take time to reflect on what’s been debilitating your growth and your ability to reach higher levels in life: personal or business. Once you’ve identify them: Face it, Trace it, then Erase it.

How To Draw Your Visitors Into Your Website

Do You Want/Need a Video to Market Your Book/Product?

5 Ways To Improve Sales Through Your Website

July 1, 2009 by C.F. Jackson  
Filed under Keys to Success

Almost everyone who has been marketing online knows that the lifeblood of book marketing and internet marketing is the traffic of a site. More visitors equal more sales. However, here are some ways that you can tweak your sites with to improve sales as you continue to strive to get more visitors.

The first method is to weave in your personal touch in your sales message. Nobody wants to be sold to by a total stranger, but many people will buy what their close friends recommend to them. If you can convince your audience that you are a personal friend who has their best interest at heart, they will be convinced to buy your books, products, or services. Remember to speak to an individual in your salesletter, not to your whole audience.

The second method is to publish testimonials and comments from your customers. A good idea would be to publish both good and bad comments; that way potential customers will be really convinced that these testimonials are real. When potential customers see testimonials on your website, they will have the confidence to buy from you because human beings follow the herd mentality; when others have bought and proven it authentic, they will jump on the bandwagon and buy too.

Use visual representations for the problems and solutions that your product offers. Not everyone will read your text copy from the head to the tail, but most people will pay attention to images, video and audio on your website.

Offer quality bonuses to accompany the product. When you offer bonuses that complement your product, your potential customers will feel it’s a very good deal and it would be stupid to miss it. Be sure to state the monetary value of your bonuses so that people will be even more compelled to grab your good bargain.

Lastly, ask for the sale! Many people entice their potential customers with the benefits of their product, sell to them with stories of how it has solved many problems, even offered killer bonuses but forget to ask for the sale. Give a clear instruction on how to buy your product (e.g. “click the button to buy now!”).

Evaulating Your Book Marketing Success

Filed under Website Design 101

When it comes to book marketing
online, often times something as
simple as a menu or navigation bar 
on your website that can and will
make a difference.

When it comes your visitor surfing,
navigating, and manuvering around
your website… Is it taking them to
the place you want them to land
and take the action you desire?

Where does your website take your
visitor as they land on your home page
wanting either to purchase, learn more,
or sign up?

Website Makeover Workshop Launches the Authority Site to Assist Authors and Writers to Take Control of Their Literary Success Online

Website Makeover Workshop Launches the Authority
Site to Assist Authors and Writers to Take Control
of Their Literary Success Online

Website Makeover Workshop: Empowering Authors and Writers
with Online Book Marketing through Free Articles, Videos,
and Writers’ Resources

ATLANTA (October 31, 2008): It was reported in June, 2007 by SoftPedia.com that approximately 100,000 websites are added to the internet every day. The competition on the internet is fierce, and every author must remove any road blocks that may be causing them disparaging results online with their websites.

Author and website makeover trainer C.F. Jackson launched Website Makeover Workshop with the purpose of helping fellow authors and writers achieve greater results online. In 2005, C.F. Jackson learned for herself that a website needs the keys to success, including more than a book cover, book excerpt, and a “please sign my guest book” section.

With all the information gathered over a five-year timeframe, Ms. Jackson offers applicable and practical techniques and strategies for any author or writer to easily implement. No one has to be a web design guru to create an effective web presence.

Since the launching of Website Makeover Workshop, the success of many authors has been very rewarding. One of the successes is shared by author Savannah J. Once implementing a few of the strategies from Website Makeover Workshop, Savannah J. says, “Since then I have had some visitors who’ve come to my website, signed my guest book, and told me how informative they now find my website. And how exciting it was to be able to read the excerpt on the front page, and because of
that they decided to buy the book.”

Website Makeover Workshop is designed to provide resources, tools, and workshops to meet the needs of any author or writer. The launching of the Website Makeover Workshop Authority Site provides a central location to gain knowledge to help with booking marketing and learning how
to sell books on the internet.

Website Makeover Workshop offers free:
- Articles
- Book Marketing Online: “How-To” Videos
- Writers’ Resources
- Website Design: Tutorials

Website Makeover Workshop’s mission is to help authors and writers put the pieces together to achieve online success.
