So you’ve got a website, you have something online…but nothing’s really happening.
I know that feeling.
I began online in Feb 2008.
I didn’t make anything for almost 6 months. However as soon as I mastered one thing in particular — from August 2008 I began having regular $250/days.
And that one element that I worked hard to master…
…was CONVERSION.
When someone comes to your website - you will want them to do one of two things.
- 1. Sign Up To Your eMail List
- 2. Purchase Your Product
One of the most common problems I hear all the time is from individuals all bent out of shape over traffic ‘…I need more traffic, I need more traffic…’
Well — there is a bigger deal going on that you need to address before this.
And that is CONVERSION.
You may well already be getting enough traffic to your site that could make you a good income…
…but if this traffic leaves with doing nothing, then traffic is not your problem.
Your problem is CONVERSION.
You need to spend some time before generating traffic — testing how your site converts.
Some Conversion Tips.
- 1. K.I.S.S. Keep It Simple Stupid. Don’t over complicate your site. Make it obvious at your site what your visitor should do.
- 2. Have ONE option at your site. Do not offer a product for sale by ‘clicking here’ and then a free newsletter by ‘clicking there’. ONE option. ALWAYS.
- 3 Hold you visitor by the hand. Treat them like a 4th Grader. Don’t expect them to know what to do. If someone needs to fill in an opt in form to get a copy of your eBook, say ‘fill in this opt in form to get a copy of my eBook’.
K.I.S.S. Keep. It. Simple. Stupid.
What is your users experience like at your website?
Test your website! How? Get a second opinion.
You are probably far too close to your site to give it an unbiased appraisal. So ask someone else.
Or better still — post your site on a forum and ask for feedback.
