The Importance Of Choosing The Right Payment Gateway

Filed under category Online Events by Khai Ng at 1:03 pm.

There is something I want to share with you about product launches because this is critical to your online success and it will make the difference between making thousands of extra dollars and losing them.

Last week, I conducted a launch called MLM Fire Sale and I chose a payment gateway - Pay Dot Com.

We started the launch and we sold about 50 copies in first three hours because everything was running smoothly (or so it seemed). We then proceeded into the next day and you wouldn’t believe what happened… PayDotCom went down during the 2nd day of our launch and my partner and I were horrified as our sales came to a grinding halt!

Can you believe that Pay Dot Com went DOWN for about 6 hours? Imagine what would happen if it went down on the first day of the launch?!

To be honest, the 6 hour downtime didn’t affect the overall execution adversely as the results much because I was quite satisfied with the results, But if you are thinking about running your own product launch, make sure you CHOOSE a good payment processor.

You see, I have nothing against Mike Filsaime and I really respect the great work he has done in the Internet marketing community, but I’m just going to focus on the problem and not the person - to get things straight. I had to do a lot of ‘fire fighting’ and it was no fault of my own!

If you want to host your affiliate program, either do it on ClickBank or install JV Manager to manage it yourself. Clickbank has good support and JVM will help you to manage it well if you want to do everything yourself.

On the other hand, when you are choosing a method to accept payment, I would choose 2 Check Out (2CO) over Paypal anyday.

Last year, Vince Tan, Gobala Krishnan and Melvin Ng launched the biggest fire sale of 2007 - Send Us To U.S. and it generated $69,000 in 7 days. However, Paypal limited their account in spite of Vince calling them to inform about the launch.

Imagine… 69 grand frozen and you can’t pay your affiliates at all… that would be disasterous. Thankfully Paypal released their money.

Getting your affiliate program frozen is really bad, not because you lose the sales per se, but also because you will disappoint your affiliates for sending traffic to your site! But I was glad for one thing, the partners who promoted me were very patient and understanding and the 6 hour downtime really didn’t affect the launch much as the affiliate sales continued to come in thanks to the cookies in place.

Remember - choose wisely because you don’t want to be blamed for other people’s failures…

Consistency And Persistency In SEO

Filed under category Other / General by Khai Ng at 8:09 pm.

Many Internet marketing newbies complain that their sites or blog posts do not get ranked well on Google.

It happens when people do not do enough SEO work.

The underlying reason is they are not consistent and persistent when it comes to SEO.

You see, SEO is not something that you do ‘once and for all’, it is on going and you will be able to get better rankings if you are willing to allocate a little bit of time each day to build links.

Here is a very simple plan that will allow you to get very good results without spending too much time and money.

  • Write 1 article a day. Article directory submissions provide precious link juice and targeted traffic for your sites. Don’t try and dump a whole bunch of articles at one shot, try and spread it out over a period of time by writing one article a day and submitting them consistently everyday. If you feel that writing one a day is daunting, then try once in two days. After a month, you would have submitted 15-30 articles which will give you good rankings and traffic.
  • Leverage on Squidoo and Hub Pages. Remember those articles you have written for your article directory submissions? Use them to create a Squidoo lens and a hub page. It will help you save a lot of time if you re-use your articles. Squidoo has a page rank of 8 and it will help your site or blog when it comes to ranking well.
  • Make sure you bookmark all your posts consistently (write one and bookmark three - it is very simple). If you have installed the ’share this’ plugin for your blog, you will have easy access to a bunch of Social Bookmarking sites that you can easily spread the word. I highly recommend using Digg, Stumble Upon and Propeller (if you are short of time) because these three will give you lots of traffic and authority.

    Remember, the key is not to get bogged down with too much work, keep it simple and achievable and as you consistently do a little everyday, you will accomplish a lot at the end of the month (which is more SEO work than what most people do in a year).
