It’s your job as an internet marketer to get as much website traffic as possible to your site but more importantly to do it in the most efficient manner possible. The less time and money spent on getting the most results, the better return on your investment. With that in mind, here’s some tips in using tracking systems.
The only way to know if the advertising or traffic generating method you’re using is working is to try different things and then track the results. Then keep using the ones that work and quit using the one’s that are wasting your money and time.
It’s important to track everything you can. Think of every ad, post, email, sigfile, ezine ad, traffic exchange and any other place you put a link to your site, as a test. If you don’t know the results of your tests, how can you improve your results?
Tracking click thru rates is not enough. Make sure the system you’re using has the ability to track not only click-thru rates, but sign ups and sales as well. This way you’ll know if the traffic source is truly getting results.
You may have one ad getting 2000 clicks and 1 sale, while a second ad gets 50 clicks and 5 sales.
If the first ad costs 10 dollars and the second ad costs 40 dollars, which ad is more profitable?
Let’s assume that the product we’re selling is the same and makes 20 dollars profit.
AD 1 $10 cost 1 sale X $20 Profit = $20 - $10 ad cost = $10 Profit
AD 2 $40 cost 5 sales X $20 Profit = $100 - $40 ad cost = $60 profit
As you can see, the number of hits to a site does not always mean that ad is more profitable.
The only way to know for sure is to track results. Once you know what works, put more of you advertising budget into the most productive methods. The same $40 spent on ad one that would produce about four sales could be spent on ad two and make about twenty sales.
Twenty sales X $20 profit = $400 - $40 ad cost = $360 profit on the same $40 investment!
Can you see why it’s important to track everything? If all you tracked were the total clicks you could never be sure which ad they were coming from or where people were buying from.
It would be easy to mistake the ad with the most hits as being the ad people are buying from and you could be wasting money. Money that could be redirected into more profitable and effective advertising as soon as possible will make you more in the long run.
With that said, you want to be sure that you track your results long enough to be accurate. A hundred times is not enough. For visitors to your site 3000 to 5000 visitors will give you a pretty good idea if your site is doing what it’s supposed to do. ie; ( get sign ups or make sales). Banner impressions would take around 20,000 to 50,000 impressions to get an idea if it’s working. If it gives you good results keep doing it and if not change or remove it.
Know your return on investment for each traffic source. The best and only tracker to use is one that tracks return on investment for you and will also track total clicks, total sign ups and total sales. If it takes this information and automatically reports the percentages of total clicks to total sign ups and sales and your total return on investment then you have a winner as far as tracking goes.
Once you find some effective traffic sources that give you a good ROI, pump up your budget on these sources by redirecting the money spent on ineffective sources. Then go looking for new sources. Remember to keep trying different things and after six months or so, you’ll have a collection of really good, profitable website traffic generators that you can rely on for producing predictable results.

Draw Thousands of People to your Web Site - Like Steel is Drawn to a Magnet!
Draw Thousands of People to your Web Site - Like Steel is Drawn to a Magnet!
Author: Frank Tocco
Here’s something that folks may not be aware of. There are millions of people on-line, but a lot of those people are on-line while they are at their job and they’re listening to the radio shows while they’re working or goofing off.
This is the secret that a lot of people don’t realize - There are millions of people who are on-line that should be working. They’re behind their desk pretending they are working, and they are really on the Internet just surfing around and ripping off their employer. That can be good news for you if you’re on one of these radio talk shows. While they’re supposed to be working, they are surfing your web site and spending some money with you.
What you have to do is make people on the Internet want to keep coming to your web site. We’ve coined this the “money magnet” web site. You need to create a “money magnet” web site - one that’ll draw thousands of people to your web site like steel is drawn to a magnet. And here are just a few ideas to help you do just that, and keep people coming back to your web site!
Start a discussion group on your web site. Become famous within your niche. There are people that are doing this right now. They’ve got web sites, and within their niche, all of the people come to their web site, constantly, to be involved in the discussion group. No reason why you can’t have one, too.
Number two, put on as many links as you can that are related to your web site, or your niche, of people that are selling different things or have different information, they are not competing directly with you. You’ve got as many links as possible on your web site. People come to your web site almost as if it’s a freeway on-ramp.
Most web sites are like dead ends. They go to your web site and it’s a dead end. They can go no further. A “money magnet” web site is a web site people come to so they can go to other places. You have constantly changing links and new places that your customers can go to. They’ll keep coming back to your web site because that will make it so much easier for them to go to different web sites that are of interest to them.
A third idea is an electronic newsletter. You would keep the newsletter in your web site. People could download it if they wanted to, but they had to come to your web site to get it. You’ve got a new newsletter all the time, and you’re constantly changing that. Another idea is to have contests. Maybe you have a contest every month, and you try to make it fun. These ideas give people a compelling reason to come to your site. Most web sites don’t have any compelling reason for people to go to them. By doing these, and other things, you give people a lot of reasons to keep coming back.
Most web sites have zero content. Your “money magnet” web site needs to have a lot of content. Most web sites never change. Somebody goes through it one time, they see what you’ve got, and there’s no reason to go back. Your “money magnet” web site is constantly changing. It’s exciting! People want to come back.
Now, if you ask a hundred different marketing experts what marketing is, they’ll tell you a hundred different things. They can all be right in their explanations.
The way we define marketing is very simple. We’d like for all of our readers just to think this through. It’s two-fold.
One, it’s all the things you do to get a new prospect to do business with you one time.
Two, all the things you do to get that prospect coming back again and again.
Now, electronic marketing is just using a computer, your web site, and the Internet to do those two things. You’re getting new customers to buy from you one time and, then, you’re keeping them coming back again and again. Once you truly understand this principle, it can make you a tremendous amount of money.
There is no better way to use that principle than creating this “money magnet” web site that we’ve talked about. It’s going to take a little bit of work for you to do it, but it’s going to be worth it. It’s going to compel new prospects to, first of all, come to your site. For all those links that you’re putting out from your site to other people’s sites, you’re making these people also put a connecting link to your web site. So, you’re getting new people in, plus you’re getting people the information, the products, the services, and the things that they want. You’re establishing value with those people. You’re getting them to come back again and again.
There is a compelling reason to come back. Once they come back a few times, that lets you build a strong bond with your customers. You can use that strong bond and that strong relationship to really get extremely wealthy. This is the potential here. The formula for getting wealthy is real simple: you get enough people to re-buy from you enough times, at a large enough profit per transaction, and you’re going to get rich. It’s that simple! This overall concept can make it happen.
