Where do you find a Web Wizard? My friend Elza of www. elzamusic.com went to www.rentacoder.com, posted a request for bids, found a guy who was great, and paid just $15 an hour for a few hours to get her website and blog up and running. He turned out to be a high-school student who was working from home in another state, and he was so responsive that he would complete projects for Elza the same day she sent them. Let’s see if we can find someone like that for you!

Product. You have your programmer going, newsletter up and an offer ready. You are getting a high hit rating. I am getting about 15 sign ups a day and 300 visitors. That’s 5% of people signing up, which is probably pretty good. You want at least a 5% sign up ratio. Then free web traffic. #3 is to get your product. And then #4 are you going to the Pay Per Click Engines. The best one I found is Google. I spend about, not sure it it’s per month, if it’s per month, about $400 per month. And I get $1000 in revenue through Google. So I’m making $600 per month through Google.
And it’s so easy.

David: Ok now should we talk about web site structure? What makes the site interesting so they stay longer? What do these people want?
Which comes down to search words
David: Yes, but this is an indication. Most of the people that come to you, what are they looking for?
Change, Guidance, support.
David: OK. Change, guidance, support. And what is their problem?
They don’t know how to get off their backsides.
David: Well it might be. The problem is they hate their job. Some feel there is more than they can do. Some want someone to challenge them. Some are looking for direction. They know there is more. Connect with them by saying I know there is more. Write on the site, here is whom I serve. Is this you ding, ding, ding? Here is how I can help you. Here is a great idea for a sales letter. Go to life-coaching-resourcece.com/ep.htm. This is something I have been developing with the sales gurus. You can see if for yours. I list the problem, benefits, why the competition will not help them, I have testimonials at the right time then it talks about price and why it’s such a great price. You might find it over the top for you but look at it.

Someone recently said to me, there are only two outcomes you want from your site: either A they buy a product or b they leave their email address. So, you want a newsletter plus a download. Give something of value. I am doing something new. I will give you about 10 different things for free passport membership. Little things like testers and tasters of other products. And they will sign up. And your version will be the newsletter sign up. So that’s critical.
