How To Rise Above The Competition Online

January 24, 2014
Greg Graham


When you think of internet marketing, do you see it as one more thing you must work at, in order to promote your business? If so, then you have a narrow view of the subject. It is so much more than that and it can be personalized so that it works for you. Read on to find out how.

Have a unique selling point. In all of your marketing materials, especially on your site itself, make sure that prospective buyers know that you are different from everyone else in your field. Tell them why you are different; you can even do a comparison table showing them the ways you surpass your competitors.

Provide a webinar that not only focuses on a problem or difficult scenario within your niche, but also comes close to solving the problem. You then enhance the solution with a product (your product or an affiliate product) that will complete the solution and be the ultimate answer to the problem.In all likelihood, you may have learned to shun programs like Web Fortune Master which offer you bad recommendations.

If you are constantly being active on the internet, you can make your website more visible. There are blogs, newsletters, articles and forums available for you to get your website out into the world wide web. The more places you refer back to your site, the more visible you are to your audience.

Always be cognizant of your competition as an Internet marketer. If you don't realize what your competition is doing, you can easily fall behind in the market. Check out their websites and their products and see what tactics they're using. You might also be able to find out what their traffic is like and that will show you how well your own site is doing.

You should reward the visitors that have given you help, by promoting their links on your homepage. This will help in two ways: It will show users that helping is rewarded, prompting them to do it more. And, it shows that you appreciate all of your users.

One of the most appealing aspects of your personality that you can instill in your site is humor. Make sure that you keep things business professional, but including a joke here and there will never hurt. Inserting humor into your communication with customers makes for a very light and fun level of dialogue.

If you are the CEO of a company, make sure that you directly respond to readers once in a while. Readers love this, as they see that the highest level of the company is interested in what they have to say. This will improve your credibility dramatically, leading to more of a following.

When you are trying to sell your product online, make sure that you focus on the advantages that it will bring to the potential customer rather than the price that you are offering it at. Focusing predominantly on price comes across impersonal, what you want to do is highlight how your product or service improves the customer's life.

When describing your product, you should be extremely honest. Most people can see through typical advertisement discourse. Talk about the advantages of the product, but also its limitation. You should of course focus on the positive aspect, but try to sound like someone giving advice rather than trying to sell something.

Sending emails out to potential customers or paying customers is a great way to achieve in internet marketing, but you need to avoid sending the same kind of content that your competitors are. Subscribe to your competitors' emails and newsletters and check them out. Then you'll be able to see how you can do a better job.

After reading through all of that, do you still see internet marketing in the same way? Do you now see that it is so much more and that they are very simple things that you can add promote your business? There is work involved, but you decide on how much to put into it.
