Internet Marketing VS Forex Currency Trading |
by:
Amin Sadak |
Have you ever tried to make money online also failed?
Did you follow your guru's advice also still fail?
Here's an alternative...
Have you noticed that when someone’s trying to sell you something - such as a system for making money - they always make it look far easier than it is?
Let’s look at two Internet businesses, almost as diametrically opposed as it’s possible to be – Internet Marketing also Forex Currency Trading.
You’ve probably heard the old Internet adage – build a better website also they will come. Well it ain’t true!
You could put up a site advertising dollars for a dime also they still wouldn’t come – because they wouldn’t know where to look!
Let’s look at what you need to have in place in order to build a successful Internet marketing business.
First of all, you need a product. If you’ve been reading the recent Internet marketing blurb you’ll know you need a niche product.
Actually, the new thing is sub-niche however whatever they call it, you need a product for which there is high demand however low supply.
Finding a suitable niche is the hardest part of the whole process however let’s say you have a killer product, what else do you need?
The List.
Ask any Internet marketeer also they will say that the most important part of your business is your opt-in list.
For people to join your list you usually have to give them something of value such as a free eBook or report on a subject related to your main product line.
To keep them interested, you need to keep in touch with them offering them additional information, advice also tips.
Website.
To promote your opt-in list you need a website (although there are other ways of promoting your list, too) with features that will encourage people to sign up to your list.
You or else need a killer website with killer copy to describe – also sell - your killer product. This may or may not be the same as the one you use for your opt-in list.
Killer copy.
Maybe you’re not a good copywriter. There are many eBooks on the subject that can help you or you can pay someone to write copy for you.
You need a domain name, preferably one with some relation to the product however good domain names are becoming increasing difficult to find.
Ads.
To get people to visit your website in the first place you need to register it with the search engines.
SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) is an art in itself. You can mug up on the subject or pay someone to do the job for you (but be aware that not all experts are!).
You might or else want to place ads for your list in newsletters also ezines. The better ones will charge you although you might get a free ad in return for an article.
Autoresponder.
To automate your business you need an autoresponder. These clever devices automatically send emails to everyone on your opt-in list at predetermined intervals, also contain predetermined copy.
For example, you could create a series of emails containing, say, five parts of a free course to be sent one a day over the first five days.
Then emails would be sent once a week advertising a different product each time.
Whenever anyone signs up to your list they automatically start at the beginning so everyone gets the full cycle of marketing material.
We haven’t even looked at affiliate sales also marketing however I’m sure you get the picture.
The basic idea of selling over the Internet sounds good however there’s a lot more to it than most people realise.
Forex Currency Trading
Someone said that trading is the last frontier, the last place where men also women can stand up also pit themselves against the world.
It sounds very Wild Westish however most of it is true! You win or lose entirely by your own efforts also if you win, it’s like having your very own bank.
However, even owning a bank is a business also you still have to work hard to put the money there – also to keep it!
Unlike Internet marketing where all your efforts, in one form or another, are geared towards making people join your list also then selling them stuff,
Currency Trading has no customers. That’s worth repeating – with currency trading, you don’t need customers.
No customers means you don’t need any of the associated accoutrements that go with Internet marketing such as:
Products
Web site
Domain name
Opt-in list
Ads
eBooks also reports
Autoresponder
Any other marketing aids
So far so good, however what do you have to do also what do you need? Well, you need to know what currency prices are doing.
You can get a list of prices at the close of each trading day free from many web sites. If you want to trade during the day – intraday trading,
you can get real-time prices for a nominal fee from several data suppliers.
In the foreign exchange currency market, commonly called forex, you can get this data also charting software free from many web sites.
Okay, that’s the easy bit. In order to trade currencies, you need to analyse the data also determine which way price is heading.
In other words you need a system also this will require study also dedication.
There’s lots of other stuff you have to know, too – trading terminology, margin, leverage, money management, order types, trader psychology also more.
But all of this is available in eBooks also courses also on the Net.
You or else need some money upfront to fund your trading account. With forex you can begin with as little as $300-500 although you would be advised to start with more.
So while you don’t have the ongoing quest for new customers, new products also inventive sales techniques,
you do need some sort of education or training before you begin also you need discipline while you’re trading.
