Build Your Online Success My name is Bonnie Holscher and as I grow I will be bringing to you resources to help you build your online success. I have been online since 2006 and enjoy a great lifestyle while sharing how I am creating a six figure income and so can you.

When I got started on the internet in 2007, I had a lot of learning to do. Some was trial and error. Some was proven methods I learned from my mentors. But for the most part, I studied many of the already successful people who had built their businesses on the internet. What they did, how they did it and why they did what they did. There was one area that I did not grasp at first but learned the extreme importance within the past year.

How do I attract visitors to my websites is a question asked by so many trying to become successful in internet marketing. The answer was in how to build link popularity to your website. I thought, as most newbies do, that once you put a website or blog up, it will automatically bring visitors and they will easily find you. That is far from the truth and a disappointment to the beginner just getting started. The internet is a vastness that need to be utilized by linking your website or blog with inbound links. There are millions of websites out there in cyberspace and the more you have linking to your website the more you will be found and visited by the millions of people that use the internet today.

One of the most important things to remember when building your website or blog is keywords. Find out what people are searching for and use those words to attract visitors to your site. Use them in your titles, on your pages and everywhere there is a place to insert keywords for your work. This makes it easier for the search engines to find you and drive traffic to you.

Another way to drive traffic to your site is to write articles. This is a very effective way to increase traffic to your site. Make sure at the bottom of each of your articles you have an author biography and the link back to your website. Submit to several article directories and watch you popularity rise. Be patient because it will take a little time to become noticed so be persistent. Don’t stop at one or two, write articles on a regular basis. Two article directories you can started with are EzineArticles.com and GoArticles.com.

One more thing you can do to get more recognition for the search engines is to comment on other peoples’ blogs and include a link to your website. Make sure they are relevant to you niche or topic. If you have a website, you must make sure that all your pages are linked to the homepage so the search engines can assign a popularity to each of the pages in your website.

The internet is being used more and more by the average person. It has become a major source of advertising for people who would not step into the world of products and services as easily. Individuals have so much to offer yet in the past would forgo pursuing because of the costs and difficulty of getting things advertised. Then along came cyberspace. And with cyberspace came an incredible power to reach millions of people. This opened up a whole new world for a person to not only explore but to get themselves and their products and/or services seen in homes and businesses around the world. There are numerous ways to utilize the internet to market to others.

One way is to set up a website for either information or to include shopping pages with a shopping cart. Just recently the ease of one page websites has made it easier and more cost effective to advertise a product for purchase. With newer programs in place the average person can develop a simple website that will speak effectively and efficiently. Your product could be a virtual product such as an e-book or e-course. The page could also advertise items for purchase that need to be shipped which could be just about anything you can imagine.

The second way that you can become known on the internet is to create a blog.  Blogging has become a huge way to get information out to thousands of people. Although there is an etiquette as to how you can advertise in your blog, people connect and pass information along with simple entries on their blogs. With ways to get updates, your reader can just sign up to get those updates without having to go out to your blog, your blog comes to them via email. This is an easy way to network with others and gain internet recognition as well. A blog is a website and when it is done well can prove to be an asset to your business.

A third way to attract others to you and/or your website is to write articles. These articles become an information source to the readers. As you become more known by writing articles the chances are that people will be more likely to visit your website or websites that you recommend. Make sure that your articles are not blatant advertising because that is likely to turn people away after a time. Articles offer information and assistance to your reader. Even if your reader does not go to your website, they have gained valuable information and are more likely to past that along to others. These others could then be those people who do visit your website.

As with anything, it takes time to become proficient with using the internet to connect with people no matter where they are. These are only a few simple ways to reach people on the internet. But if you keep at it and find other people who have gone before you to become successful, you too will grow and create your own success. There are a lot of resources available to help you in whatever direction you decide to go. There are also many other directions you can take to get known or make money using the internet.
