Your headline will make or break your advertising. The headline is the first thing that your potential customers see. The headline helps them determine whether or not to read your ad.

If you want your ad read, and you want potential customers to take action, then focus about 80 percent of your effort on writing your headline.

There are several things you can do to help you write good headlines:

1. Study good headlines.

Does the headline make you want to take action? Does the headline make you want to read the ad? If it does, then chances are it’s an effective headline. Put it in your sweipe file. (A swipe file is a file of good headlines, ads, and other copywriting you want to use to help you write your own effective advertising.)

What is one of “the most popular” traditional marketing tools used by small business to reach HUGE audiences with minimal investment?

Not sure? Let me give you a hint?

Classified Advertising!

Now at this point, you may be likely to get confused. We’re talking about cutting edge Internet marketing here, right?
So why am I rambling on about classified advertising in newspapers?

Did you know that advertisers spent almost $18 billion in newspaper classified ads? This total dollar amount is more than almost every other category of advertising media.

Look at the numbers!

The answer is simple:

Classified advertising is not only a valuable marketing tool offline, it is also a powerful way to reach thousands of potential customers and generate incredible profits ONLINE? all with none, or very little investment!

How can this be?

Well, think about this for a moment. I think we can all agree that placing a classified ad in your local paper is a great way to sell your car, sell your house, advertise your garage sale, sell puppies or kittens? and the list goes on, right?

Well consider this: When people are perusing the classified ad section of their Sunday paper, they’re not always looking to buy. They’re probably just snooping to see what they MIGHT like to purchase?, at least that’s what I do…sound familiar?

It’s human nature to see if there are any good deals out there. So when they come across the perfect bike? that pair of skis they’ve been wanting? the perfect leather sofa? they may be tempted by the offer, but unwilling to make the effort to pick up the phone, arrange an appointment to view the product, drive out to see what’s being offered, and then write a check.

This is a LOT of effort when you’re only curious or slightly tempted.

This is exactly why online classified Ads have a HUGE advantage over regular classified ads. Electronic classified ads remove the hassles and barriers? giving people greater incentive and ease to investigate your offer, and actually BUYING IT!

Think about it?

You’ve posted an ad for your product. A curious shopper is snooping about, reading the various offers when they come across your ad. Your offer intrigues them and they want to know more, so they simply click on the link that you have conveniently provided them with. Voila! They arrive at your site where they can view your product, read your sales copy, and easily make their purchase online.

It’s quick, it’s easy, it’s hassle free? and you capture the sales of impulse buyers!

So with that in mind, wouldn’t it be nice if you could take advantage of the thousands of electronic classified ad sites available out there? Just imagine what this FREE advertising could do for your business!

I really love making money by internet marketing and not having to go to a regular 9-5 job. Yes the income can be up and down – and when you are starting out it can be overwhelming, but the sense of achievement when you make your first dollar online just from your own skills is simply amazing.

And that you can make sales at any time of the day or night, just from your own computer (whether you are sitting at it or not) is something I really like. The first thing I do every morning is check my email account, clickbank and amazon to see how much money I’ve made that night.

While many of the traditional forms of marketing also apply to internet marketing, (such as attracting customers, producing a sale), you really can start out with no formal training or skills in that area and learn as you go.

Lately, in my internet marketing adventures, I have been becoming more and more interested in SEO (search engine optimization) and have been fully immersing myself into learning as much as I can about it. SEO enables you to generate lots of traffic to your websites or blogs and all for free (and I like free).

The reason why I particular like SEO right now is that you are bringing targeted traffic to your website who have found your site via a search engine after they typed in a certain phrase. Whether they were looking for information, products or just ’surfing’ around, the fact that they found your site means that you have a targeted potential customer visiting you.

Yes SEO is a lot of work, there’s onpage and offpage optimisation, backlinks, PR and so much more – but learning about it is half the fun and as you learn more and implement the techniques and see results the more you want to find out.

So far I’ve mainly been using SEO to promote clickbank products, my own products and adsense revenue. I know many people also use it for CPA offers (which is really hot right now) but I’ve yet to get involved in CPA so far. Perhaps that will be the next thing I learn about.

Anyway I’m getting sidetracked. The whole point about this post was to let you know that it is possible to make money online. Pick one thing and learn about it. Get good at it. And when you are ready to move on to the next thing then do so.

Don’t just jump from one thing to the next until you are ready otherwise you won’t get anywhere and you’ll end up feeling overwhelmed.

You really can make a little bit or a lot of money online depending on your goals. Whatever you choose I wish you the best of luck.
