Whatever the product or service you offer on your website; there are probably hundreds of thousands or millions other websites which a potential online customer can go to. It takes a lot of hard work to get the visitors to your website in the first instance; now that some prospects have visited your website, you have a very high chance of converting them into your online customers. It is very important for you not to lose them to your competitor.

How can you retain your leads and prospects, and ensure that they buy from you and not from your competition?

· A friendly, professional and easy-to-navigate website is a necessity. You must ensure that you have a friendly website; and make it easy for your customers to navigate. Have you ever visited a website which is simply confusing? You do not know what is being sold, or there are so many things on offer on that website and it is all very confusing? Well, you must avoid having such a website because it will make you lose your online customers. A customer-friendly and clearly laid-out website is a definite way of retaining your online customers. The prospect may really want to buy from you, but if your website is not easy to navigate and takes a lot of time for the prospect to find what they want; they will leave. Time is of essence for online customers. Have a ‘Frequently Asked Questions’ on your website to explain more about your website or the product / service that you offer.

· Your website must be full of BENEFITS. This is another necessity if you want to convert your prospects into online customers. Everyone appreciates something for free. Offer free tips, information, ‘stuff’ or anything else related to what your website offers. It helps to make a your website a ‘one-stop-shop’ where the prospects or online customer can get more information about the topic related to your products and services – so make sure you have a lot of free information, tips and articles on your website. It is important to have some valuable benefits which your online customers would really appreciate getting if they bought from you. Be creative and make sure that you have some valuable free offers to your online customers.

· Easy, free and speedy communication. Your website is your ‘shop’ that operates 24/7. You will need to make it easy for your prospects and online customers to contact you. You must have many contact alternatives on your website; namely email address, toll free fax or telephone number – whatever you see suitable for you and your business. Allow prospects or online customers to contact you by email, and it helps to hyper link your email address so that they do not have to type it in. You must check your emails on a regular basis and respond to any queries as soon as you can.

· Keep in touch. This ties in with the above aspect, but focuses more on proactively staying in contact with your prospects and online customers. Offer a free e-course or e-zine subscription on your website so that you keep in touch with your website’s visitors. This will help you create trust and build a relationship with your prospects, and soon they will be your online customers. Having a ‘list’ is a definite way of making money online as you can make regular offers to them. After every sale, follow up with the customer and see if they are satisfied with their purchase. Retain their email on your list and offer them any services or products you may have in the future.

· Go that ‘extra mile’ for your customers and be nice. This is a critical factor which is often underestimated in its importance. Always be ready to help, answer any questions or offer some advice. Be polite to your customers. Show them that you really care about them.

By simply following the above recommendations, you can be sure to convert your prospects into online customers and also keep them away from your competition.

Take care

It is not a fantasy. Staying at home can be profitable.


If you ever wondered how it will be to quit your day job, to fire your boss, to start the life you always wanted, than you better get started.

It doesn’t mean you quit your day job right now and sit at home without doing anything, this won't bring you wealth and happiness, but if you really want to start your new life, go to your personal computer, sit in front of it and connect to the internet. The internet is full with online job opportunities, all you have to do, is to find the right one for you. It is not hard, look inside yourself, what are you passionate about and concentrate on it.

Once you found your niche, you find many different ways to make money from the comfort of your own living room.

One way to start make money almost immediately is the "get paid to…" websites.Websites will pay you to take surveys, read emails, and complete tasks.The more you complete the higher your profit will get.

For beginners the "get paid to…" websites are the best. You can keep your day job, and every day on your spare time sit in front the computer and login to your account(s). It is very important to open more then one account, I even recommend at least three for the beginning, it is more then enough and it is not time consuming. It will take one to tow hours and you are done.

Of course this is not an income, it is more like pocket money, but this the firs step to start your new life as a home worker, and one more step to financial independence.

If you want to gain more from those websites I will recommend upgrading them, most of those accounts are very cheep to upgrade and the profit is much higher, since you will get more tasks to complete the earnings are higher.Some of those programs will even pay you if you enroll more people to the site, and if you do, you receive commissions too.

Once you accomplished this step and starts to see some profit, another way is sell stuff. Sign up with affiliate programs, most of them are free to join and they pay you commission if you drive people to their store and to buy their products. But now you need to do some more work. Signing up is not enough. Now you need to promote your products, do it right and your income will grow, there are a lot of free way to promote on the net.

One more way is to sell your own stuff. If you have something worth of value then you can sell it on the internet, and you don’t need your own website too. You can sell a service or an eBook you wrote, or what ever comes to mind.

Remember it is never too late to start, but why not start sooner?

Okay. You chose your affiliate program and the products you want to promote.

But you don't know how?

You need to advertise.

One way to advertise, is by posting ads on classified ad boards.
There are many free ad board where you can post your ad for free, and allow you to put a link – which is the most important line in your ad.

Another way to advertise you products is by traffic exchange engines.
Traffic exchange engines allow you to advertise your products for free and get you a massive traffic to your product pages.
How dose it work? After signing up you can go to your member's area. Some of the exchange engine gives you free credits for signing up, and you can "earn" more credits by surfing the website or buying credits. Than you can put a link to your product. This link will show up to others surfing this website as long as you have credits to "pay".
One of the best traffic exchange engines is Traffic Swarm. Traffic swarm is a free fully automated exchange engine easy to set (5 minutes and you're done) and it brings you traffic 24/7 every day.

If you want more people to see your products you can even go virally. This is exactly as its sounds – go viral. For example see Traffic Hoopla. Traffic Hoopla is one of the viral exchange engines. It is free to sign-up and use. It's increase the traffic to your site virally. When you sign-up with a viral exchange you are being directed to other traffic exchange engines to place your ad there and all your IDs are being saved on one viral engine. This will generate traffic to your site every day 24/7.

The last way to advertise your products is by article writing and submissions. Learn a bout your products, research them and even try them and then write an article. Post your article to blogs or submit it to article directories.

As you can see there are many ways to promote your products, all you need is to find your niche. There are a lot of free ways to advertise you just have to do the first step.
