Online Business Internet Marketing Computer

Those seeking to build an online business using internet marketing computer strategies should begin with a specific end goal in mind. And that end goal should be the complete (or complete as possible) automation of your online business. There are indeed some internet marketing computer strategies one can employ that require less work and generate somewhat equal results in the short term, but you should be planning for the long-term; and long-term success requires content rich sites with a long list of subscribers.

Let’s look at two examples of online business internet marketing computer strategies. Both will use affiliate marketing and both will generate roughly the same amount of money, but one will require less work.

The first method is one that requires less work: writing articles to promote a product through an affiliate program. The articles are distributed to different directories and provide a link either directly to the product’s website or automatically redirect people to the product’s website from one’s own domain.

The second method also uses article marketing in the same manner, except the articles link back to a website or blog with a lot of unique and relevant content, as well as an opt-in form that builds a subscriber list. Online Business Internet Marketing Computer

So, the second method clearly requires more work than the first method, but both are essentially promoting the same product and will essentially make the same amount of money. In fact, the first method may even make more money initially because the customers do not have to go through a series of complicated steps to reach the affiliate product’s website.

But don’t be fooled by the ease of the first method. Sure, it will make money and can be useful. But over time the usefulness and search engine popularity of your articles will wither away, leaving you only a limited period of time from which to profit. You would then be required to re-do the article writing process all over again for the same product or other products.

If you would have taken the second method, you would have built up a long list of subscribers to whom you can easily offer affiliate links, as well sell your own products to. Your website will also last a much longer time, with a lot more content. And your content-rich website will develop a community which you can continue to profit from over the long-term. Eventually this kind of situation becomes self-sustaining and automatic, requiring very little time.

Therefore, the situation at the beginning of the process seems to have reversed itself. The person using the first method will have to start another round of article writing to generate his revenue stream all over again. But the person that built the content-rich website developed a community around a large amount of relevant content that provides him a foundation from which he or she can easily promote new products with little work.
