Three Online Marketing Tips for the Stay at Home Mom

Three Online Marketing Tips for the Stay at Home Mom

I can relate to your position if you are a stay at home mom that is looking for an extra income. It can be really frustrating to go through website after website, reading all of the outrageous claims that businesses are making regarding all of the millions that their online business opportunity can do for you. I was just like you and spent so much time figuring out what business opportunity would be best for me and then once I got there, I knew nothing about how to make this business succeed. Probably the most important advice that I have received were some tips on how to market my business and my website. I'd like to share those tips with you and make you aware of what you could be doing to drive more traffic to your website.

An good friend, who is also very successful with her internet business, shared these 3 things with me. Three things that would be easy for me to do and would drive more traffic to my website and help me market my business.

1. Learn the advantage of article writing. Article writing is a free way to get your online business name known. If you have already started an online business, then you have a article subject. Write articles about the same subject as your business and then post your articles on free article websites. You will have the opportunity to put all of your information, including a link to your website, as a tag on the bottom of each article that you submit. If your readers like your article enough, they might just be inclined to click on your link and read about your products. The more people that click through to your website the better rankings you get with the search engines. There are also article submission sites that will assist in submitting your article to many sites with in minutes.

2. Networking can be done anywhere, this includes online or offline. If you are talking about networking online, then joining some social websites could be a good way to do this. Sites like myspace.com offer communities of people that you could reach out to. Always include your website link in the profile that you create. Just because you have an online business does not mean that your networking has to be limited to online options. You should take every opportunity that you have in your day to day life to let people know about your business. Make up some cards with your website on them and attend community meetings that might pertain to your business.

3. Blogging can be a good thing, even though it may seem as if blogging is just for the casual user, it can actually be a really good way to form business relationships. Write your own blogs and also comment and answer questions on others blogs and you might find yourself becoming more visible by the minute. Also, this can help to establish you as an expert in your field, which will increase your website traffic as well. And there are sites that will distribute your blog to all the main blog sites with in minutes.

Hopefully, these hints have helped you as much as they helped me when I first started out with an online business. The whole internet business world can be kind of scary, but just jump in and give it a try and you might find that it can also be very rewarding for your soul as well as your pocketbook.
