<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US">You have a wonderful designed website. Powerful sales copy. Amazing deals and promotions. The items that you are selling are incredibly unique and irresistable. You are ready to accept payments and customers. <strong>But little or no money flows in. </strong></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US">WHY?</span></strong></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US">Because the website is not made known to the world. You&#8217;re merely setting up the business and you&#8217;re the only one who admires your own webpage, you&#8217;re the only one who adores your own products and offers. Your customers are mostly your friends who meekly drop by your webpage and doing window-shopping online. Profits made are pathetically low.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US">To expand and increase targetted customers, you will need to Power Advertise your website.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US"><br />
</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US">Here are 7 ways you can consider:</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US">1.Think of a domain name for your web site that&#8217;s easy to remember.</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US"> It should be related to what your business does, sells or provides. If there aren’t any business names available, use your actual birth name.You could at least brand yourself. Your own name will give you credibility.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US"><br />
</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US">2.Position your web site at the top of pay-per-click search engines.</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US"> You will only pay your set amount for each click-through you get to your web site. Just make sure your profits will pay for your advertising cost. If they won&#8217;t, maybe you could share a website with another related business and split the costs.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US"><br />
</span></span></p>

</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US">4.Tell your audience what kind of support they&#8217;ll get after they buy.</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US"> It could be free consulting, tech support, free servicing, etc. This may also answer some of their buying questions ahead of time.People don&#8217;t want to buy products without knowing you will be there to help if they have problems.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US"><br />
</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US">5.Use pictures or graphics on your web site that support the product you&#8217;re selling.</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11pt;" lang="EN-US"> They could give your visitors a clearer vision of your product, the benefits of the product, people&#8217;s emotion when they own the product, etc. You could also use ‘before’and ‘after’ pictures.</span></span></p>
