Today I want to write little about how to do business online version of me.
Before, I would love you know that this post was made not by a novice blogger who writes to get traffic, but by my unfortunate transverse in the world of online business for approximately 5 years, therefore I want you to consider seriously what I wrote below.
How to do business Online in three stages
As I always say, an online business that's more or less the same with normal business in the real world.
Every business that earn money by way of exchange value which he had with the asset (money) of others.
And that business, everywhere need three things:
Quote (product or service)
Visitors (traffic or views)
Conversion (the ability to convert visitors into buyers)
Easy example is a restaurant and/or laundry services ...
They've got an offer in the form of food and laundry services.
They chose the place where a lot of visitors (not possible restaurant is open next to the graveyard).
And they tried to convert by offering competitive prices, delicacy, prompt service, menu, and others.
The same thing also applies to online businesses or any business that is sane.
You definitely know that there is no easy way to success, and although there are many advantages in online business, it does not mean this business is easy.
Back to the topic, let's discuss one by one on how to do business online in three steps.
The # 1 Online business elements: offer
You should make sure that you have something to offer someone else. Something that you can sell. This can be in the form of products and services.
If you are a blogger, you are selling is actually a potential visitor could click or advertiser you get. However, if you do not or do not have the expertise to produce thousands of visitors per day to your site, I suggest you find other things to offer.
I personally don't sell ad slots, because I am not an expert in bringing in traffic. But I can still earn money from the internet (my online business) because I have a product.
If you follow me long enough, you'll also know if I sell equipment livestock and catfish have recently tried to sell clothes.
My friend is selling jersey (the ball), another friend of mine was selling batik chic, once there is a friend of mine in West Java which is selling shoes futsal. I have many friends who offer SEO consulting services, and I used to never sell services online store creation.
By having a product or service, traffic or visitors that bit doesn't matter because you will still make money.
Once you have a product, you need a place to put your product in a ' place ' on the internet.
To do this there are a few things you can do, you can create your own website (can be a professional website or a free blog at Blogger), or take place on Facebook, TokoBagus.com, and others. I described in detail in this post: Online business without capital.
Jika karena suatu alasan anda tidak punya produk atau jasa yang bisa anda tawarkan, anda bisa mencari kenalan atau saudara atau teman atau siapapun yang memiliki produk, dan tawarkan kerja sama (ini hal yang saya lakukan dengan ayah saya untuk situs BeliLele.com saya).
Jika masih tak punya produk, anda mungkin bisa pertimbangkan join premium membership saya di mana saya jelaskan di post premium saya: Cara Rahasia Mencari Produk Harga Grosir untuk Toko Online Anda.
Jika anda tak ingin memiliki produk sendiri, anda bisa pertimbangkan untuk menjadi affiliate (makelar online) dan gabung affiliate network.
If for some reason you don't have a product or service that you can offer, you can look for acquaintance or a relative or a friend or anyone who has a product, and offer cooperation (these things I did with my Dad for my BeliLele.com site).
If it still does not have a product, you can probably consider join my premium membership where I explain in my premium post Secret: how to search for products at wholesale prices for your Online store.
If you do not want to have your own product, you can consider becoming an affiliate (online broker) and join the affiliate network.
Unfortunately until now there has not been a decent network affiliate in Indonesia as far as I know. If you are interested in becoming an affiliate, you're forced to join affiliate network global like Amazon, Clickbank, and others and sell to the global market. English-speaking skills to sell products became necessary.
Element Online Business # 2: the visitor
In my opinion this is a relative thing. Because the control is outside of our hands and there are many things that influence. However, I will try to explain all the ways of getting traffic that you can try.
If you use a site like TokoBagus.com, Facebook.com, or use the forum as a place for you to post your product or service, and by default already exists that visitors will see your offer.
You need only memaksimalkannya.
However, if you use your own website, then you need an additional another way, because people will not come to the site that they do not know--so your site should be ' seen ' by others so they can visit.
Search Engine
The first way that is often used by people is to try their site listings to search engines (search engine such as Google).
By default the fact your blog (Blogger or WordPress) is already doing a ping to search engines to make sure that your site is ter-index by search engines.
However, it doesn't hurt to optimize it so that not only ter-index your site, but also appeared in high rankings in search engines on the keywords you want. This is often called Search Engine Optimization (SEO).
A discussion about SEO is another outside the scope of this post, if you want more information, you can check my videos: Video tutorials to learn SEO. Scroll to the section that discusses about SEO.
Other Ways To Get Visitors In Addition To Search Engine
Take advantage of the other sites, you can use Facebook.com to promote your products, post or share your site to sites such as Digg.com or StumbleUpon.com, create and promote a lot of video through YouTube.com, DailyMotion.com, Vimeo.com and others, contribute to someone else's blog or site, promotion in the forums, and much more ...
There are very many ways to get traffic, I will not discuss all the way because it was too much.
But remember, if you have a product or service (not just a blogger with a capital of just writing), no need for thousands of visitors revenue millions of dollars per month. 😀 Usually the traffic from the search engines and your acquaintances was enough.
Online business element # 3: conversion
This is the most enjoyable aspect of the business. Turn visitors into buyers. And the interesting part of online business is more or less you can automate this.
If you are selling an information product such as I am, you are definitely familiar with the payment processor called PayPal.
Can you make the buy button using PayPal, where afterwards you do not need to do anything to handle transactions (because PayPal already automatically handle the purchase and deliver the product to your buyer he bought).
It's the most important thing out of turn a visitor into a buyer, i.e. have a way that visitors can buy from us. If we have an abundance of products and traffic, but we do not give information on how to buy, they will not buy from us. As simple as that.
If you are selling physical products or services online, you can receive the payment transfer. Make sure you include your method of payment and how to order for your prospective buyers can confirm the payout to you.
Another way that you can do to improve conversion is to communicate your product as good as possible. You can learn more about this by following the training sales (I learned from audio Sales Revolution his pak Tung Guenta K.), or study copywriting.
And because the topic of conversion is also very broad, I think the discussion will require a separate post (the post itself was over 1000 words).
