Solo Ads

Solo ads are a great way to start to advertise your offer online.  You can advertise anything.  You can choose to send people directly to your affiliate offer if you want. Generally speaking, it’s better to send them somewhere that you can harvest their email address for further followup.  So, some sort of squeeze page is your best bet.

Can Solo Ads Work?

You betcha.  You can really get leads with solo ads.  It’s always a numbers game though, so don’t get discouraged just because it takes awhile.  You can start to build a list this way.

You have to create a squeeze page before you bother with solo ads.  I can tell you that an easy way to make a squeeze page for your site is to use Aweber or something similar.  You are going to need some way to create a form that captures the email address and inputs it into your email autoresponder, so using an all in one tool/service like Aweber or Getresponse is a good start.  With Aweber or Getresponse you create the form online, then use the code that they give you and paste it into your blog page or HTML page at the proper location and voila it’s ready to start accepting email addresses.  I’m going to video that soon and place it in an autoresponder article and I am going to do a quick solo ad video and place it where that box is.  I hate to do anything half ass but I feel that there is valuable information in this text beyond what any video can provide so at least I’m getting this out first and editing is easy when I can slap together a video.  It’s pretty easy though just point and click so if you have Aweber or Getresponse then try it.  If you don’t have Aweber or Getresponse, get one and then try it.

So anyway, once you have that ready to go and set up, you can do solo ads and send them to the offer page.  Again, you may decide to send people right to an offer like your Empower Network link since that is a squeeze page and you do get their email address as long as you set up your Empower Network back office with the Aweber or Get Response autoresponder configuration.

solo ads

 

Solo ads sites are everywhere.  Udimi is a great source. Many let you place ads for free with credits that you get get for surfing pages and receiving safe list emails.  Some of these sites allow you to buy a cheap solo ad to send to their entire safelist network. For a few dollars can you go wrong?  I say no it’s cheap so try it out.  The safe list emails work great with an email account like Gmail.  All you have to do is white list the service and set up a filter to put the messages into a folder so as not to fill up your actual inbox.

Once you have whatever the particular site requires, you go into their mailer and you just set up the email with your subject and text and you are ready to go.  You should not (and in some places they disallow it) put dollar signs or use trigger words when making these emails since you don’t want your offer to go into the safe list recipient’s SPAM bucket.  Sometimes trigger words need to be spelled creatively by break’ing the words up with apostrophes like th’is.

You also have to keep the

email text narrow like this

so that you make sure that

it doesn’t overflow borders

of the page that the recipient

is viewing.  This is one of the ticks

that you have to learn and use

when placing solo ads or even

doing your email swipe for your

autoresponder.

I know that Aweber runs your messages through spam assassin to get a spam score, so you can use that as a quick tool to gauge whether your email swipe is destined for the inbox or the junk or spam folder.

Got it?  Good.

Another type of solo ads can come from people who specialize in that and they guarantee a number of clicks.  You can buy their deals for so many clicks and the higher the price the cheaper the per click price.  You can even pay a bit more for premium clicks from countries like US/Canada/UK/Australia which pretty much guarantees a certain education level, literacy, job, and credit card.

Look around.  You can learn a lot with trial and error.  I have gotten leads from the cheaper and nearly free solo ads safelist sites, so give them a try.  Just Google safelist and solo ads on Google and you will see plenty.

Not everyone thinks that cheaper Solo Ads work

The gurus don’t do only cheap solo ads, and I can say that they get saturated due to their easy access.  With thousands of affiliates out there, this is understandable.  There is another way to find and place solo ads.  It takes a bit of work, but it’s not there with a billboard saying, “Buy Solo Ad Here”. There is still nothing wrong with having a dedicated weekly solo ad budget within your overall website traffic plan.

It’s just one of many power packed techniques, so you should get to understanding it.  You will need to partner with me, get into the business, learn the training, and get going.

With the proper training, you can use solo ads to generate leads and sales for your online business without relying solely on SEO and free traffic.  Once you come up with a system that works, you merely pump a certain percentage of your profits into follow up ads and keep going in order to scale up.

So this is pretty much what there is to it.  Solo ads can work, if you know how to find the ones that work the best and are willing to get the required training in order to master this black art of online marketing mojo.

I created an entire Website Traffic page at one of my other blogs, and duplicated it on this blog. You are STRONGLY recommended to check that out. It mentions MANY traffic sources, including solo ads, revenue sharing traffic exchange sites, and more. (Pssst – It could take you YEARS to learn all about this stuff but you get it here in one shot.)
