Page templates

Finding good squeeze page templates is as easy as going to your favorite search engine and doing a search. The actual template you use isn’t as important as the elements on your squeeze page.

For any of you who aren’t completely familiar with what a squeeze page is, it is simply a page that is used to entice website visitors to sign up to your email list.

This page has that purpose only. There is nothing else to do on this page. Someone will sign up or they will leave. There are no ads, there are no links there is nothing else on that page but the information about the freebie you are offering as an incentive to sign up to your list.

I know that some people can get a little freaked about by what I just laid out. They may be fearful that their visitors will get mad and will leave their site. And the truth is that can happen. But there is another truth you have to be aware of: upwards of 98% of your website visitors will never come back anyway.

Since you have worked so hard to get that traffic to your site and since most of them will never make a purchase from you or come back to your site, what do you really have to lose by trying to get them to sign up to your email list?

If they sign up you can have more opportunities to make contact with them and hopefully build rapport and trust and eventually turn them into paying customers.

When on the hunt for good squeeze page templates here are some of the basic components a good squeeze page should have:

1. A place for a compelling headline. Everything on your squeeze page should be geared to getting your visitors to sign up to your list. To that end you want to have a compelling free offer for them.

In most cases that free offer will be some sort of report. When you create your title you want to make them eager to get their hands on that report.

2. Bullet points for your free report. Again, you want to highlight some of the specific things you will teach them in your report. Don’t tell them exactly what the secrets are, just let them know there are secrets and that they will miss out if they don’t sign up.

3. A video. This is optional. More online marketers are using video but you don’t have to.

4. An optin form tied to your auto responder service. Don’t worry this is all automated when you get your auto responder set up.

5. And of course, though this isn’t actually part of the squeeze page itself, you need to create a compelling free offer of some sort. Make sure you keep it closely related to some issue people in your niche commonly struggle with.

Keep these tips in mind when you start looking for squeeze page templates. Most of these templates will make it really easy for you to customize your squeeze page to suit your own unique needs.

Paycheck to paycheck

Working from home is a great way to make a lot of money and attain the financial freedom you desire. No longer will you have to worry about debt collectors. No longer will you have to worry about going paycheck to paycheck, or being unable to pay your bills. All you need is an internet marketing site to get all the money you could want.

However as nice as that all sounds, it will not just happen overnight. Starting an online business means you are starting a business, it will require a lot of time and work to get it up and off the ground. Getting it running is the hard part, once it is going it is fairly easy to maintain.

So to get to that point, there are several tips to help you in building up your internet business.

1. Set up a schedule. While we like to think that an internet business will provide us freedom to work whenever we want, we really shouldn’t. Some people have the discipline to work whenever they feel like it. However most of us do not, so setting up a schedule and deciding when we will work is important. By deciding when we will work we can plan our day around that and more easily get into it. As well it will help build a habit.

2. Find a work area. When working on your internet marketing site it is important to have the right atmosphere and mindset. Finding a nice quiet place in your home where you can get to work allows you to filter out distractions and concentrate on the tasks at hand. As well, by having a specific area for working it can help get you in the right mood, knowing that when you are there it is work time.

3. Necessary tools. There are a lot of software out there to help you in building up and managing your business. Downloading these and making use of them is a great way to help you out and make your job a little easier. Automating wherever possible is a good idea, so if you can do it, then do it and save yourself the hassle of doing it yourself.

4. Connect with others. With the vastness of the internet, you are not alone in your niche. There are others out there who are getting their own businesses off the ground, and those who have already succeeded. Connecting with these people allows you to bounce ideas off your peers, ask for help from those who have already succeeded, and to give help when you can.

5. Maintain your health. This may seem out of place when dealing with your internet marketing site but you have to remember that unlike a conventional business, you have nobody else to rely on. Taking a sick day from work does not hurt anything because there are others there to pick up the slack, but with your internet business you are alone, so if you become sick or injured it can greatly effect your business.
