    Default Hello from Sydney Australia

    Hi Everyone,

    I'm from Down Under where we're going into winter right now.
    I have a vendor finance real estate business with my partner Jack
    and we do most of our marketing online. I'm our online marketing person and
    love learning IM and using all this stuff - the feedback is so fast after all!

    We've been in business since 2003 and our business is pretty successful.
    Love the passive income we get from it.
    Also planning on putting websites up which are more hands-off people-wise
    which is where niche affiliate marketing comes in.

    Look forward to connecting up with and exchanging ideas with y'all here
    Cheers
    Tamar

    Thanks for your welcome Christine.

    I have an aromatherapy niche website http://aromatherapy4healthyliving.com with a friend though we haven't done much with it in recent times.She wants to sell it because we haven't made any sales from the affiliate programs we joined promoting diffusers and herbal stuff and both of us have our main thrust elsewhere.

    There's reasonable traffic coming to the site.It had 1560 visitors last month and already 250 this month! I have Google Alerts for Aromatherapy but I'm not using them and I guess I haven't got a routine going for posting regularly.Though I am an Amazon Associate I haven't actually got around to putting Amazon Ads on the site.
    I just checked and the main domain goes to our squeezepage though I thought I'd set up our blog there!
    Another check revealed that I've set up the blog under a directory called blog! But there's no link on the squeezepage to it. Still there's only 1 post on the blog!
    We have a free report and a list that has a few hundred on it which we send via an autoresponder sequence to article pages with promos for the affiliate programs and adsense though the design doesn't seem to be right because we've had no clicks on the adsense there or sales for the other products.I'd really like to get something automated happening there.I probably need some sort of plan/routine...

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Be happy to talk about our vendor finance real estate business though it is only aimed at the australian market and it's a service we sell rather than a product. Basically we help people who can't get a bank loan buy their home by getting people who can, to buy it for them, and then onsell it to them on vendor finance marked up of course. we organise everytihng and manage it all.Our main website is http://innovativerealestate.com.au
    So it's very hands-on talking to buyers and investors that come to us from our lead gen websites and putting deals together and managing the ongoing process.

    Cheers,
    Tamar

    First you need to get writing for the blog. Maybe you can agree with your partner to write one blog post each per week for the next couple of months. Then try redirecting your new subscribers to the blog once they fill out the form. Your autoresponder service should have that as one of settings. You could also have an exit popover so that if people leave the page without subscribing they get an invitation to see a resources page on your blog where you have your affiliate-linked recommended products.

    As for moving the blog, instead you can redirect the main domain name to the blog instead of the squeeze page and then put a signup form in the sidebar of the blog, at the end of blog posts and/or in popups or slideups.

    Thanks Angie.And thanks rather belatedly Christine for your advice.

    I've had a knee replacement operation about 3 months ago and the pain relieving drugs are just doing in my brain unfortunately

    Another question if I may? How do you redirect the main domain name to the blog?

    Thanks for your help.

    Cheers,
    Tamar

    Oh Angie-I had a look at your family Travel blog as I'm a keen traveller myself and the link in your first post "Gogobot travel planning site" says "The Offer You're Looking For Has Reached It's Limit
    Or Is No Longer Available At This Time".

    Cheers,
    Tamar

    Cheers,
    Tamar
    PS What's happened to the 2 other posts I made both of which I was told had to await moderation?

    You can redirect a domain name at your domain registrar (like GoDaddy). When you go into your account, you should see something like Domain Management where you will see your domain names. One of the settings will be Forwarding. You would insert the URL of the page where you want the domain to be forwarded to. It takes a few minutes for it to start working.

    Welcome Tamar! Please add your picture so we can see you here 'up above' Is that how the 'down under' crowd refers to us in the Northern Hemisphere?

    Default I haven't really disappeared !!

    Hi Christine and Connie,
    I can't believe so much time has elapsed - I'm embarrassed and apologise.
    Thanks for your very simple and elegant solution Christine- the KISS principle in action!
    Connie- that's funny! No- we actually don't describe you lot as being from up above!!
    I did get around to downloading the NAMS App to my iPhone and am posting this from the movies while the ads are showing. Will post again soon!!
    Cheers
    Tamar
