Ingredient No. 2 - Proof Is In The Pudding You will never make a single sale in your life unless Five Reasons Why Internet Marketing is More Powerful than Traditional Marketing etailed descriptions beneath are all about? It would be impossible to read.Internet marketing is more effective than traditional marketing. Let's look at the five reason why that is so.The first reason is simple - more and more people are using the Internet - for research, for browsing and for shopping.In one month, between July and August of this year, the growth of Internet use in the United States grew half a percent, from 139,944,945 to 140,589,403. Not an amazing growth but this was for one 4-week period.

And remember - "Welcome to Widgets Inc." or "Welcome to my homepage" are not headlines! Write something that makes me ask "How do you do that?!" Ingredient No. 2 - Proof Is In The Pudding You will never make a single sale in your life unless you can establish confidence in the buyer. One of the easiest ways to establish this confidence is to show them proof. Now the tricky bit here is that you haven't got pages and pages of opportunity to do this - you can't start waxing lyrical on your homepage. What you need to do is hit people with quick shots of hard, cold and irrefutable proof right away. Proof that what you sell works. Proof that they should listen to you. Proof that if they leave your website right now their life will be worse because of it. But I'm not in a position to tell you exactly what shape this proof should take - hell, it's your business not mine! If you haven't got lots of proof - you're in trouble and possibly in the wrong business. Ingredient 3 - One Single Individual Sole Lonely Non-plural Stand Alone Call To Action What is your website for? What are you trying to do with it? Whatever your ultimate desired end goal for each visitor you need to make this clear to them right on the homepage. Don't just leave them floating around looking at information making their own decisions about where to go on your site and what to do! Why? Because the chances are that their decision will be to get out of there at the first opportunity because you've not told them what you want them to do. People like to be led. So lead them!! "I want to sell you X on this site" "You need to sign-up now and your life will never be the same again!" The above are both good examples. Don't be scared and British about it - shout about your motives and desires on your homepage. Otherwise - don't come moaning to me when your visitors aren't doing what you want them to do. They're not psychic you know!
