The Truth And The Lies Of Network Marketing Success

Guest article by Lennox Graylor

I am sure that you have seen all those ‘top guns’ parading their network marketing success stories on the internet and at company events. You have seen the photos of sports cars and dream homes, luxury vacations and beautiful yachts. Are their stories true? And if they are, why are those people so much more successful than you?

Part of the answer lies in the methods that your upline is teaching you. You have probably learned a lot about motivating yourself along with a ton of information about why your company’s products are so much better than the competition. I am sure you use the products yourself and have genuine faith in them, and that’s great. But true success in network marketing requires more than that.

There is a missing component that many network marketers overlook or simply dismiss. They assume that it is unnecessary to the growth of their business. In fact, it’s just about the single most important ingredient to becoming successful in any network marketing business … the investment that you make in YOU.

What do they teach you to focus on? Having a short term goal is a great start. Combining this with a long term goal is even better. Generating targeted leads, people who really want to hear what your offer is all about, completes another part of the network marketing puzzle. But the one piece many simply don’t put enough time into is investing in themselves.

Investing In Myself - Sounds Good, But What Does it Mean?

Simple. Just get your daily dose of self improvement to develop your success mindset. Without it, climbing your way to the top of the heap is nearly impossible. But did you know you can just about cheat your way to success?

The answer is to hang out with the people who already have all the success that you want, and more. Don’t worry, you don’t have to stalk them! All you need is access to their ideas, whether written, spoken or on video.

It is often said that we adopt the attitudes and expectations of the people that we spend most time with. If someone who considers himself a loser is suddenly catapulted into being surrounded by successful people all of the time, his mindset will change. He will begin to think, speak and act like them. All that is holding you back right now is your own expectations and prejudices about yourself and your abilities. A daily mindset boost can change those ideas completely.

Listening to mindset motivational material every day is incredibly powerful! It can completely change your outlook, especially regarding your own true worth. It can also help to rid you of the boundaries that limit you, boundaries that do not exist except in your mind.

This can be equally effective whether you use motivational material from a successful person in your own company or a well known speaker such as Anthony Robbins, Dan Millman or Jack Canfield.

It is amazing. Many people consider even 15 to 20 minutes of motivational material as timewasting or brainwashing. How wrong can they be! When you’re building a network marketing business, the truth is, it’s simply gold.

The failure rate in network marketing companies is terrifying. Up to 75% of people quit within 3 months. In 6 months, it’s 90%. Of course some of those will go on to be successful with another company, and if you have been a ’serial quitter’ in the past it’s definitely time to turn your fortunes around. A regular dose of motivational audio will help you do just that.

It is simply a question of bringing the millionaire mindset into your daily life. I do mean daily - you need to be listening to success seven days a week if possible. Make sure it is always at least six. Pretty soon it will become part of your life, and almost without trying, you should find yourself moving toward network marketing success.

Search Engine Mistakes to Avoid

Guest article by John Neyman

If you have a website then you already know the importance of traffic. Traffic is to Internet marketing as location is to real estate. It’s the only thing that really matters. If you cannot generate targeted visitors to your site, you will not make any sales.

Usually the owner or designer of the website is the person designated to drive traffic to the site. The chief ingredient in generating traffic is the search engine. Of coarse, you can use advertising, but it’s going to cost you. Using the search engines to generate targeted (interested in your product) traffic is the least expensive method known.

Unfortunately, many website owners do not understand the importance of search engine visibility, which leads to traffic. They place more importance on producing a “pretty” website. Not that this is bad, but it is really secondary to search engine placement. Hopefully, the following list of common mistakes, made by many website owners, will help you generate more targeted traffic to your site…after all, isn’t that what you want.

1. Not using keywords effectively. This is probably one of the most critical area of site design. Choose the right keywords and potential customers will find your site. Use the wrong ones and your site will see little, if any, traffic.

2. Repeating the same keywords. When you use the same keywords over and over again (called keyword stacking) the search engines may downgrade (or skip) the page or site.

3. Robbing pages from other websites. How many times have you heard or read that “this is the Internet and it’s ok” to steal icons and text from websites to use on your site. Don’t do it. Its one thing to learn from others who have been there and another to outright copy their work. The search engines are very smart and usually detect page duplication. They may even prevent you from ever being listed by them.

4. Using keywords that are not related to your website. Many unethical website owners try to gain search engine visibility by using keywords that have nothing at all to do with their website. They place unrelated keywords in a page (such as “sex”, the name of a known celebrity, the hot search topic of the day, etc.) inside a meta tag for a page. The keyword doesn’t have anything to do with the page topic. However, since the keyword is popular, they think this will boost their visibility. This technique is considered spam by the search engines and may cause the page (or sometimes the whole site) to be removed from the search engine listing.

5. Keyword stuffing. Somewhat like keyword stacking listed above, this means to assign multiple keywords to the description of a graphic or layer that appears on your website by using the “alt=” HTML parameter. If the search engines find that this text does not really describe the graphic or layer it will be considered spam.

6. Relying on hidden text. You might be inclined to think that if you cannot see it, it doesn’t hurt. Wrong…. Do not try to hide your keywords or keyword phrases by making them invisible. For example, some unethical designers my set the keywords to the same color as the background of the web page; thereby, making it invisible.

7. Relying on tiny text. This is another version of the item above (relying on hidden text). Do not try to hide your keywords or keyword phrases by making them tiny. Setting the text size of the keywords so small that it can barely be seen does this.

8. Assuming all search engines are the same. Many people assume that each search engine plays by the same rules. This is not so. Each has their own rule base and is subject to change anytime they so desire. Make it a point to learn what each major search engine requires for high visibility.

9. Using free web hosting. Do not use free web hosting if you are really serious about increasing site traffic via search engine visibility. Many times the search engines will eliminate content from these free hosts.

10. Forgetting to check for missing web page elements. Make sure to check every page in your website for completeness, like missing links, graphics, etc. There are sites on the web that will do this for free.

This is just a few of the methods and techniques that you should avoid. Do not give in to the temptation that these methods will work for you. They will do more harm than good for your website.

Not only will you spend weeks of wasted effort, you may have your site banned from the search engines forever. Invest a little time to learn the proper techniques for increasing search engine visibility and your net traffic will increase.
