Advertising
If you really want to build your business online, you MUST be
willing to invest in your business. There are many advertising
opportunities available on the Internet that will enable you to
purchase targeted advertising very reasonably.
Ezine Advertising
Ezine Advertising is one of the most effective forms of advertising
on the Internet. Not only is it effective, but it can also be
very inexpensive depending on the size of the publication.
The key to using ezine advertising effectively is to target your
audience and track your response. You must test the effectiveness
of both your ad and the publication in which you're advertising.
This will enable you to determine which ads are pulling the most
response and which publications are providing you with a high
response rate.
When selecting an ezine in which to purchase advertising, there
are a few factors that should be taken into consideration:
1. Select an ezine that targets your potential customer. In other
words, if you're selling health products you wouldn't want to
advertise in a "marketing" ezine. You would want to
advertise in an ezine that focuses on health.
2. The size of the publication really isn't a factor in determining
your ad's success. Smaller publications will many times have a
higher response rate, as they may have a higher percentage of
subscribers that actually read the publication.
3. Before buying advertising in a publication, make sure you subscribe
to a few issues. You want to ensure that the publication contains
quality content and see how their ads are displayed. If they're
running 15 or 20 ads each issue, your ad's response rate will
most likely be low. Try to select a publication that runs only
a few ads each issue and places them in the center of the publication.
4. Contact the ezine publisher to make sure they never run two
ads for similar or the same products. This will increase your
response rate considerably.
