The Customer Advantage is Free - Sneak Peek of New Interface

The Customer Advantage is Free - Sneak Peek of New Interface This is what The Customer Advantage

is working on with their new interface. You will find training on here and you can listen to a lot of past calls along with training material.

I know some of you are frustrated with the time and the merchants you have talked with you feel you integrity is damaged. I know the feeling. I have stayed in touch with all of mine and assured them the wait will be well worth it.

Keep them excited by telling them we are also going to be able to make them go viral, but I would only use that statement with clients that heave been put on hold.

Hang in there, I am and I'm no where near jumping ship

Experts AgreeThe Customer Advantage is Best Model For Business Ever

The Customer Advantage is a new company in prelaunch. The company is being virally marketed as a grassroots alternative to Groupon and Living Social
which will share revenue with members. Reps for The Customer Advantage will market to businesses with a ‘zero risk, zero out-of-pocket’ pitch that
promises the business there is no cost unless the business offer is presented to them by a customer.The Customer Advantageinc is offering free sign ups, but
 all sign ups must be through a referral.
New members receive a replicated web page for referrals. Commission is currently based on a 5% override on the purchases of all referred members, for
five levels. When members enroll a new business, the commission is to be 2% of all sales made through offers by that business.
At this time no daily coupons are yet being offered with no date set for the launch of the coupon feature.
A lot of folks have asked this question because how can a company pay commissions without charging a membership fee. You really need to have a good
understanding of the business model and I have to say it took me a few days to get it. This was before we had the videos that are available now. Please
take the time to watch the video underGroupon Vs The Customer Advantage article on our site.
Now John Milanoski, the owner, challenges anyone to find a whole in this business model, and I haven’t been able to find one. It’s completely free to join
and market and they will never ask for a dime from it’s members.
For businesses, they can use their services with no cash out of pocket and get paid after the campaign is done.As a free member you will get deals for
your area starting in the States first but plans to grow around the globe as the membership grows. For those outside the States, you can promote the
company to others and earn commissions. There just won’t be offers for your area to begin with.
The Customer Advantage is Taking The High Road

The Website Builder Pro: What About Traffic

The Website Builder Pro: What About Traffic:  I must tell you that people often ask me how I'm able to get so much traffic to every business I own... how I'm able to find traffic sou...

What About Traffic


 I must tell you that people often ask me how I'm able to get so much traffic to every business I own... how I'm able to find traffic sources where others can't... and so on.
Let me begin to answer that with a question of my own:
On a scale of 1 - 10 (with 10 being "super crucial"), how important is traffic to your business success? Could you survive without traffic? Could you grow your business without growing your traffic?
Most people rate traffic a 10 -- super crucial.
I, however, would give it a 7. It's important, but not the most important element of my success.
Most people think the 3 components of a successful business are: traffic, conversion, and product. I disagree. These are 7's on my scale.
So what are the 10's?
Mindset, market understanding, and habits.
I realize this may be a disappointing answer. It sure isn't sexy. But if you feel disgusted or this turns you off... then, I'm sorry, you probably aren't going to succeed. If all you want is quick, tactical fixes, you should go look elsewhere.
This isn't what most people want to hear. But I see it as my sworn duty to make you successful, even if I have to "force" you into it.
These 3 things are the reason I can get so much traffic. Once I mastered my mindset, market understanding, and habits... I could answer any traffic question I've ever faced. They are FAR more powerful than any single tactic like "get good anchor text" (though those are useful, too). I have a good article on anchor text also
OK, let's talk about mastering your mindset.
Most people right now believe traffic building is hard. You're probably one of them. They believe this for 2 reasons:
Reason #1. They don't have a systematic way to executing their strategies and tactics. They try one technique for a few days, then read a random blog post covering a different strategy and decide to switch to that. They have no guiding process. They don't follow through. Instead, they half-ass a bunch of different stuff and as a result go nowhere.
Then they get depressed and give up.
Reason #2: all the mainstream blogs are telling you it's hard to grow your traffic. They tell you to produce great content for weeks and weeks and weeks and then you might start to get somewhere.  (If I didn't know any better, I'd believe that too.)
This belief is especially detrimental because if you think something is hard, you're probably not going to give it much of a try.
OK. If either of these reasons resonate with you then the coming days will feel like a breath of fresh air...
... because I'm going to give you specific, step-by-step ways to grow your traffic. I've taken the hard thinking out of it.
I have a system that worked for me repeatedly across multiple businesses... so you don't need to come up with your own solutions. You simply need to implement what I give you. (The knowledge you'll receive is only a potential until you take action.)
I'm also going to show you how to think about your traffic... so you can come up with your own strategies.
And as this happens you'll realize traffic building isn't hard. As you'll see, it's actually quite easy.
All it takes is a little bit of intelligently applied effort.
I want to quickly touch on 3 more harmful beliefs and then destroy them.
(These are crucial. If you don't believe, deep down, that you can achieve your traffic goals... then you won't. That's why we're taking so much time to get our mindset right.)
1. Belief: you need all the paid tools you see out there.
Truth: You already have everything you need. The problem is you've been kept in the dark about what really works. (Since traffic is so crucial, most experts DON'T share their very best stuff. Why would they tell their competitors what is working?) I'm no longer in that game... so now I can share everything to set you right.
2. Belief: it takes a long time to build up traffic.
Truth: Actually, it doesn't. The reason it takes *some* people a long time is they're doing it wrong. They waste a bunch of time on the 3 Big Mistakes (which I'll cover in a few days). With the rise of social sites, it's never been easier to jump start your traffic. And it's getting easier every day.
3. Belief: You need to be an "expert" to build a high-traffic site.
Truth: you just need to be a little better than the average person in your market. If you're focused on your own learning, it's easy to rise above average. People fail at promoting their content because they don't believe in the content they've created and end up self-sabotaging themselves. If you aren't confident in your topic area, spend the next few weeks reading and trying everything you can... then come back here and my methods will turn that knowledge into quality traffic.
OK this email has gotten pretty long. I realize you may not hear beliefs like these from many others... but then again, not many people can charge the consulting rates that I do :)
The point is, my main concern is giving you the keys to explosive growth. And the foundation to doing so is the belief you can.
Getting you to believe that is the hardest part of my job... which is why I opened your eyes to new possibilities today.
Now it's time to deep-dive into my personal "traffic-getting" system.
Look for that tomorrow.
Neil
PS -- actually, one more thing. A reader recently asked me why he should join my newsletter when he's already reading traffic blogs. It's a great question.
My thought on that initially took me back to math class. If you needed to learn calculus, would you do so by jumping around and studying random chapters?
No. You'd start at chapter 1 and work your way forward. Each chapter builds on the previous ones. You learn it systematically, step by step.
To me, learning from random blog posts is like jumping around the book. No blog out there starts you at Step 1 and walks you through becoming a master. Think about the last 3 articles you read. Did they build on each other in any way? I doubt it.
I created this newsletter to fix that... to finally provide entrepreneurs a systematic way to get lots of good traffic. 
Plus, few other folks have the breadth or depth of my experience (not to toot my own horn, hehe). I've shown corporations as large as Viacom how to do this... and I've also helped the "little guy." I built my website from scratch and now get 150,000 uniques every month.
And now I can pull from all those experiences to show you what works -- and what doesn't. So you're going to learn from someone who not only "did it"... but also took the time to figure out how to teach it.
All I ask from you is -- take action.
That's what separates the A-list, well known sites from the forgotten ones.
So go back and review one more time the mindset you learned in this email. It's far more important than any traffic-boosting strategy or tactic you could receive.
I'm teaching these to you first because I want you to succeed. These are my true secrets.
Now get ready for some SPECIFIC tactics coming your way tomorrow. There are 3 Big Mistakes you need to know about..

Tips For an Effective RSS Feed


The Website Builder Pro


One of the more effective marketing techniques that will allow you to establish rapport with your target audience is RSS feeds. Short for really simple syndication, RSS feeds revolve around offering individuals a way to conveniently stay updated with the latest posts from a website or blog. Basically, a feed is an easy way for people to aggregate content in one location rather than having to visit multiple websites. Let’s now go over some benefits of RSS feeds for small to medium sized marketers and how to get the most out of them.

Perhaps the biggest benefit of this marketing technique is the highly targeted traffic you will usually receive. Since a person must subscribe to your feed, you can be assured that every person reading your content has a genuine interest and will be open to buying any products or services you offer. In the event that a person is no longer interested, he can simply unsubscribe and it shouldn’t lead to any sort of resentment. This means that you won’t be spamming anyone and you should be able to build a level of trust with your audience. As a result, you can expect to see reasonable to good conversion rates when implementing RSS feeds.

Another advantage is the convenience it offers. By using an RSS feed, you can easily keep your audience updated on any recent business news simply by posting as normal. Rather than trying to reach customers or clients through a plethora of mediums, feeds condense your content and deliver to all interested parties.

Along with this, RSS feeds are perfect for tracking the performance of your content. Due to the fact that many syndication platforms provide some sort of analytical information, you can keep track of how many people subscribe and how many unsubscribe to get a better idea of how well your content is performing. When you see that people are ignoring your content or unsubscribing, you can usually find the reasons why. This is advantageous because it should help you optimize your website or blog and prevent you from making the same mistakes over and over. Over time, you should be able to maximize your list of subscribers which can serve as a big boost for your business.

In order to get the most out of RSS feeds, there are a couple of guidelines to follow. First, you should make it easy for people to subscribe. This can be done by placing an RSS button in an easy to find location on your website. Usually, it’s ideal to place it in the header above the fold. Along with this, it’s important to provide your audience with consistently quality content. While it may take more time than mediocre content, it’s necessary for retaining subscribers and gaining new ones

Free Advice From Facebook: Using Facebook Analytics to Help Your Business



Free Advice From Facebook: Using Facebook Analytic's to Help Your Business

Those who are reaching out to users through Facebook receive an email every week detailing some the statistics of how their page performed during the past week. Few, however, click on the link. The free analysis provides some valuable insight and can lead to great ideas about how to better utilize the business page. Here are five of the insights that those in charge of a company’s Facebook page should take note of.

1) The age and gender of who liked the page
Basic demographic information is necessary to better tune who the page is targeting. Online marketing is revealing that social media users do not conform to the gender stereotypes of the past, and those who run a company’s Facebook page may be surprised about what age groups are accessing the page. Businesses can use this data to explore new possibilities for future growth.

2) The location of those who liked the page
The Internet is making business a global practice. English has become the de facto language of the Internet, and many who do not speak English natively know enough of the language to find companies online. Businesses who can target customers with local products can use this data to help reach markets they have not considered in the past.

3) What posts drive traffic and engage users
Boredom is the most feared label that can be applied to a Facebook company page. By finding out what posts attracted the most attention and drove the most traffic, businesses can tune their future postings to recapture and sustain this attention. Carving out an identity for a Facebook page is crucial to its future popularity, and this data can help a business find the right niche to target going forward.

4) What part of the page generates the most likes
Facebook pages are actually fairly complicated. They contain a news feed, a main page and are often linked to from the company’s website. Facebook analytical data shares where the likes came from. If most likes came from the news feed, businesses may want to post more news stories. If they came from the main page, more content might be a wise idea. If they came from the website, it might be worth examining if more needs to be done on the Facebook page.

5) How many followers unliked the page
Users like pages on a regular basis; it takes something out of the ordinary for more than a small fraction of users to unlike a page. Businesses are often oblivious of activities they have done that drive users away, and this data can help businesses find out when they are alienating customers before it is too late to recover.

Social media continues to dominate the growth of the Internet, and traditional barriers are breaking down as those in older demographics are finding Facebook to be a valuable tool for connecting with family and friends. Businesses have a responsibility to take advantage of this growth and turn it into new interest.

What is Deep linking



Deep linking is a tool used by websites to point a visitor directly to a page within the website instead of the landing page or front page of the site. Deep linking allows visitors to go directly to the information they require, which may be available on a certain page of the website, but not on the web page to which the basic link leads. Businesses participate in deep linking through search engines so that they can guide visitors to what they need quickly, as well as keeping the attention of the visitor in hopes that the visitor will find the information, product, or service that he or she needs and not leave the website because it was difficult to find that information on a different page. Deep linking is also an excellent way to take visitors directly to a product on a web page and not have them go through multiple pages to find it, especially on a website that has numerous products.

The process of deep linking is slightly controversial in the search engine world. While some say it is an excellent way to get visitors directly where they want to go, others counter that when visitors do not have to click through a website to find something, the other parts of the website have lower impressions. Having higher impression rates is important to many websites, especially those which have advertisements that either sponsor the web pages, or lead to their own pages and products. This also poses a problem to those who advertise on other websites that might be passed by when a deep link is created to a page that is just past the one the company advertises on. Other controversies come from certain websites charging to have permanent deep links to their website, and others not being able to handle deep links because of the software used to create the web pages cannot support being linked directly and having direct traffic.

There are certain web pages that decide to opt out of deep linking for their website, forcing visitors to click through the entire site to find what they are looking for. Websites that participate in opting out use a Robots.txt file to specify that certain content that might be deep linked to not be indexed. In this manner, the pages are not indexed by the search engine spider, and do not appear in natural search engine results for people to click direct and eventually deep link to. While some professional webmasters feel that those companies that do not know about the Robots.txt file are giving silent permission to deep link to those pages, others feel that these companies are being taken advantage of when they do not know about the files that stop deep linking.

Deep linking is a part of search engines that many visitors appreciate because it makes discovering what they are looking for easier. Professionals in the field though, feel that deep linking is a problem, and while there are certainly arguments for both sides, it is eventually up to the particular website whether it wishes to be deep linked or not.
