Why Facebook Strategies Are Cheaper And More Targeted Than Google Ppc

Google is the Bad Egg of Internet Marketing & MLM. With so many accounts slapped and closed down for good, Top Gurus are Turning to Facebook Advertising as a Far Superior Option for cheap targeted traffic.

Don’t Put your Eggs in One Marketing Basket

Savvy Pro marketers like our members aren’t panicking – we’ve always had a back up plan on the go. Our advice has been simple – don’t put all your eggs in one basket – especially Googles! If you’re using Pay Per Click Advertising, then make sure you also have some SEO going on – to generate organic traffic.

It takes a lot of hard graft to get your site ranked through organic traffic – writing articles, forum posts, blogs, squidoo lenses, hub pages, video marketing – to build up your online presence and expertise for your chosen niche keywords.

Organic takes time. So if you don’t have the patience and want to generate lots of traffic fast, PPC is a good one to have as part of your marketing model.

But internet marketers and PPC experts are absolutely fed up with the arrogance of Google. So if we’re not doing Google Adwords for our marketing, where do we get the masses of traffic we are still able to generate on a daily basis?

Adding Content Rich Social Marketing into the Mix

If you want free traffic, you usually have to spend masses of your time with manually writing copy and creating podcasts and video marketing. So really it’s not free at all – time is money and all that. Even if you outsource, copy writers for your niche won’t come cheap.

So all this organic SEO friendly traffic takes time to build up and requires consistent daily effort. This is good to add to your marketing mix but won’t give you fast traffic.

What’s super important too is that organic SEO content is ultimately still controlled by the search engines, so Google still has power over how you get seen by your prospects.

How hard is it these days to do enough clever keyword research to get your unique niche and rank on page one of Google. Almost impossible – especially if you’re one newbie trying to compete with the big gurus in internet marketing or MLM network marketing arena.

What Marketing Strategies to Use that Beat Google Adwords fair and square?

What company is fair and sane, loves affiliates and direct marketers? What company attracts nearly 40 billion views a month and the traffic is uber quality and dirt cheap? Who is this company? Well, it’s your friendly neighbourhood…. Facebook!

Facebook is the only company that Google actually acknowledges is a real competitor to them. Facebook is currently showing up as having forty billion members – that means it’s five times as big as Google!!!

Yet Facebook ads represent just 5% of the advertising done on Google.

Now don’t be thinking Facebook is just for youngsters! Insidefacebook.com published its statistics and show that only 11% of users are aged 13-17. While 33% are 18-25s, a whopping 18% are aged between 35 and 44. That’s 100 million people! And a further 9% are aged 45-54 and 4% 55-65.

Don’t spend another cent with Google till you’ve checked out Facebook Advertising.

Why Facebook is the New Face of Paid Advertising

Facebook is pretty much untapped compared to Pay Per Click like Google, Yahoo or Bing or MSN advertising.

It’s truly a “sleeping giant”, an ingenious source of traffic that is…

– much bigger than PPC

– less competitive than PPC

– more targeted than PPC

– less expensive than PPC

And what’s more, Facebook’s integrated personal profiles means you can home in on exactly the demographic you are trying to target – not only by your keywords, but also by age, gender, location, hobbies, interests, education – it’s simply awesome how deep you can get into – giving you massive choice and combinations.

As a result, Facebook ads can be tweaked to fit the different demographics your users. You can target their age, gender, location, as well as their interests and hobbies. Imagine being able to target by age, gender, film interests, AND keywords… you can really hit your message home.

In practical terms, this means the clickthrus you get via facebook are much more likely to be targeted and so the conversions are higher and the CPC rate is lower than you’d get on adwords.

If all that targeting wasn’t enough to convince you, here are some more benefits of using Facebook advertising:

– Facebook is also great for newbies. It’s really easy to use and to set up your campaigns. If you can send an email, you can do Facebook ads.

– Facebook ads work in any market and will give a far better ROI than PPC, even for affiliate marketing.

– Facebook advertiser competition is minimal right now, so now is the time to tap into this massive source of traffic.

– Your ad in facebook can include not only titles and descriptions but also images, which you can’t do with ppc ads.

– There’s very little waste with FB advertising since you can identify super targeted prospects who already predisposed to your offer.

Following the Facebook Rules

There is a downside.

Facebook is hugely protective of its users. So you have to really study and follow their rules. And this will take you some time.

The general rule of thumb stems from what is called “permission marketing”. So make sure you check this out so you don’t get your account cancelled.

Facebook Advertising for New Marketers – Should You Use It?

You’ve built a website or created a WordPress blog, and packed it with your best content. You’ve done solid market research, carefully optimizing your site for SEO with long-tailed keywords. And now you’re busy networking that site by:

– Submitting articles to directories
– Including a clear “call-to-action” at the end of every post
– Networking on related forums and social media

But there’s one other strategy you might want to consider – one that at first may seem premature for a new blog or website. And that is advertising on Facebook. It’s not for everyone, of course – but if you fit a certain profile, it can be the fastest way to turn your site or blog into an authority site and increase it’s page rank.

You could invest in a pay-per-click (PPC) campaign – if you’re going to pay for advertising at all. But anyone who has tried to find a good keyword with competition that isn’t overwhelming, then register a dot com domain for it, knows all too well that finding that keyword unregistered is akin to winning millions on the lottery.

The Hazards of Keyword Selection

And if you pick a keyword with heavy competition, no one’s going to notice you. Especially if you’re just using that long-tail for SEO purposes, rather than purchasing PPC. (And this is especially true for internet marketers – one group fully aware of and savvy to keyword SEO – unlike, for example, the majority of people in, say, knitting forums, where the main interest is knitting; not marketing.)

If you do have a clear niche, however, and a strong demographic that is narrow and precise, your fastest road to creating a profitable presence could be to invest in a Facebook ad. You can purchase one inexpensively, run it for a set amount of time – and have your site spread via the best route of all: The buzz created among your social network friends (all of whom are sitting there, right in your specific niche demographic).

Remember, this is an experiment. Set your daily allotment low, and track it. (Facebook does allow you to do that.)

Maximizing Your Ad

Make the most of Facebook ads’ graphics ability, and add an appealing photo or image (just look at those Facebook ads down the right-hand side of your profile page, to see examples of visually strong ads).

And Facebook’s ability to target by city, state and country is one of its best ad features. If your website or blog is dependent on location (i.e. “Niagara Falls Orchard Photography”) and you’ve also created a Fan Page on Facebook, you may find you’ve got it made.

One caution, however: Do make sure that you actually do use strong, specific keywords for your niche in your ad headline and body text. Keep the focus narrow to that one single, specific group.

Remember that Facebook’s participants are predominantly (but not exclusively limited to) the female 18-34 range. If you were running a site that wanted to sell to a strong male demographic in a different age range, you’d need to make sure there was a good sprinkling of active Facebook groups and fan pages in that field visibly populated with males, before you went ahead with your ad.

Remember – keep your daily costs low, your target specific – and good luck with your Facebook advertising!

Top 10 Reasons Why Online Marketing Is Better A Than Yellow Page Advertising

Top 10 Reasons Why Online Marketing Is Better A Than Yellow Page Advertising

Ever had the guts to win in this competitive world? Ever had the courage to compete with and possibly beat even the wisest and most strategic business people in the world?

Certainly, this world has grown fast and changes have been fast as well. From the traditional ways of doing things, people have become more advanced and when you want to keep up with the Jones’ you had better know what to do. Businesses that are slow get left behind. Businesses who are eager to reach the turret of success continue to search for higher degrees of learning so as not to lose in the game.

Who would not want to succeed in business anyway? Everybody wants to generate income; everybody wants to be known in his or her own field. But how is it possible to succeed, especially in the business world?

One Word – Strategy. That single word alone already means everything. It actually defines everything about success.

Today, people are hooked on the internet. Almost everybody knows how to “surf the web”. In fact, most businesses have already seen its potential that is why online marketing has also become a phenomenon.

You may be skeptical about this strategy because you still think that yellow page advertising is better but let us delve into the ten major reasons why online marketing is more effective than yellow page advertising.

Reason #1: You Save More Money

The life of any business is money. Without this, it will not run. That is why savvy businessmen are very skeptical when it comes to their expenses.

With yellow page advertising, you pay a huge amount. In fact, for every inch of space in the yellow pages, there is a corresponding price. Imagine how much it would cost you if you had a full page ad? In New York, Manhattan, each inch of space costs ,500 while a whole page ad costs ,000!

With online marketing, you just have to pay for your monthly website, your website design and marketing, which could be less than 0/month to keep your business’ online advertising up and going.

Reason #2: You Have More Space For Content

Space does count when it comes to advertising. If you want your customers to know more about your business, limited space won’t work. In online marketing, you have all the space you need to advertise and promote what you have. In yellow page advertising, you only have a very limited amount of space to work with.

Reason #3: More People Hear About You

Have you ever noticed that when you are surfing the internet, you always come across a lot of things and then you suddenly became interested in them? That’s what online marketing can do for your business. If you know how to optimize your site, then more people will know about you. Can you do this with yellow page advertising?

Reason #4: Online Marketing Is Measurable

Why is this important? With tracking, you always know what are the most commonly keywords used by your visitors and can you monitor everything. When you develop a list of your best keywords, you can generate more traffic to your site and you’ll definitely gain more buyers.

With your yellow page advertising, you’ll have no ideal what prompted a prospect to take action.

Reason #5: You Can Use Videos With Online Marketing

Advertising on television is very expensive right? With online marketing, you get to promote your products or services at a very affordable price and even show your business’ benefits and features through online video. This is more visible and reliable than yellow page advertising which is plain words and photos, right?

Reason #6: You Establish A Relationship With Your Customers

How can you establish a relationship through a yellow page advertisement? With online marketing, you have the chance to develop relationships by sending email tips or online newsletters to visitors who keep coming back to your site. You can also get better business ideas by allowing them to leave comments.

Reason #7: You Can Easily Build Trust And Credibility With Your Visitors

When using online marketing, you have the chance to express your desire to help your customers and not just benefit from them. When you are able to build rapport with them by simply giving them simple ideas for free, you will quickly earn their trust.

Reason #8: You Are The Only Choice

With yellow page advertising, there are a lot of advertisements under each category. If you are the reader and you have 500 choices to choose from, would you still continue? Instead, you’ll probably just hop on your internet and type the keyword of what you want and you’ll have it! That’s online marketing! If you know how to do it right, you will be the only choice of your buyers.

Reason #9: You Can Promote Your Business All Over The World

Can yellow page advertising reach the whole world? Certainly not. With online marketing, the World Wide Web will do the work for you. Your products and services will be known throughout the nations with just a click.

Reason #10: Online Marketing Is Eco-Friendly

Imagine how many trees are being cut down just to come up with yellow pages? Imagine how much waste is thrown out when people dump their yellow pages? With online marketing, you are at peace with the nature. You gain without hurting the ecosystem.

Amazing isn’t it? These ten are just some of the million reasons why you should choose online marketing over the yellow pages. You save money, you save effort, you save the environment, but more importantly you gain more wealth!

Question by nancie: What kind of writing sample should I submit for online marketing job?
I’m applying for a freelance copywriting position with an online marketing company. What kind of writing sample should I send to something like this? I have a BA and MA in English. I have tons of academic research papers but is that what they want? I’ve also written press releases, memos and reports for my current job. I just don’t know what would be appropriate to submit. Please help.

Best answer:

Answer by b d
It’s good to send a wide variety of writing samples. The idea is to show them that you can write regardless of the type, industry or medium. A good portfolio would have magazine/newspaper articles, ads, press releases, an annual report and even an RFP if you have done one.
