I can’t fault people for wanting to make money online. Really, with the stress of the economy and the uncertainty of looming job loss – I don’t blame people for looking to the Internet to earn some extra cash.
The problem is, they seem to be hearing about it from somebody who’s nephew’s friend bought a $7 e-book on “How to Make Money Online” and trust that as the way to go. And I’m sure you know just what kind of “information” they’re getting too. One of them is the idea that there’s a magical “sales letter formula” that will hypnotize your readers into throwing wads of cash at you while you sleep. Another one is the massive, bright red ORDER NOW button.
Whether we like to admit it or not, communication really is a two-way street. People don’t browse the web just to get information (a popular case for selling ebooks), but they want to get information from people. Successful people, smart people, people who are “in the loop”, people who can help them make their lives better.
One of the best ways to increase your sales and the number of people who actively seek you out to do business with you, is to put a “human twist” to your marketing through Gravatar.
There are hundreds of thousands of web hosts out there, all vying for your business. Many of them list their features right on the home page, giving you a whirlwind tour without ever letting you stop and ask yourself, “Do I really need this?”
