Using Mini Web Sites For Promotions And Profits

If you are looking to earn money working from home, Mini Web Sites are a great way to run your own business. Usually these are simple one or two page sites that are designed for selling a single product. They are a great way to offer a limited time offer and a great way to promote an affiliate program.

A mini site is basically a sales letter that is designed to
convert viewers into buyers, it is not there to provide detailed information about the product. This type of site can attract more viewers, which means more sales and more money for you. The time it takes to set up a mini website is very short. I have created 4 mini websites in one day

You could set up a few at a time with a couple different products. Make it a limited time offer, add a nice complimentary bonus and do a couple of little ads and a mailing to your list. Or, you can use it as a ‘Squeeze Page”. A squeeze page is nothing more than a simple website that has some very useful information directly related to the affiliate program you are promoting.

Use the page as a teaser. Put some very good, very useful information on your ‘squeeze page‘. This will get your readers and potential customers interested. Next, make sure you have a sign up box on the page. A place for your visitor to put there name and email address. They now become your lead. Now, have a report ready relating to the information on your site that you can send your new ‘leads’.

In this report point out all the benefits and features of your product that your promoting. Make sure you have the link to your affiliate program in that report. Try to have the link in there at least twice without making too obvious. Whatever you do, don’t make your report a pushy sales page. This will only scare your potential customer away.

Use these steps to create your mini websites.

- Find a profitable niche.
- Determine the best product to sell for that niche.
- Write a well crafted ad.
- Design a landing page or Squeeze Page

Make sure you do not include banners or other
advertising, these might distract the attention of your visitors, your only focus should be on selling your product.

Design a Mini Web Site
Each site should sell only one product and be optimized for just that product. Select keywords based on your product, that are popular enough to attract the amount of traffic you will need to make your site profitable, and always use your keywords in the title, heading tags, and graphic alt tags. Create an easy to use order form, one that is fast to fill out, you do not want to lose customers because it takes too much time or is too much trouble
to purchase your product.
.
Whatever you sell, start by quickly describing that particular product and keep your focus tight on that product. Try to pre sell your product by including several endorsements from people who are happy about using your product. After the endorsements, include several free bonuses to get your visitors even more excited about buying. Be careful not to have your bonuses over shadow your original product. Bonuses should also compliment your product as mentioned above.

To host your site look for a reliable hosting service, one that has a good track record for minimal down time. Use a host that allows multiple or unlimited sub domains.

Your mini website could actually be a sub domain of your main site. This will save you a good chunk of money in hosting fees. Select a domain name that includes your keywords this will also help your search engine rankings and get you more traffic.

Some benefits of Mini Sites are:
- Easier to optimize for search engine rankings.
- Inbound links to your sites will lead to a higher Google Page Rank.
- You can be an expert at whatever you sell or whatever service you offer.
- Higher traffic generated than regular web sites.

Mini sites are the easiest way to make some quick money because they do not require a large setup cost, and they are easy to design. All you need is a great idea and you are ready to make some money. There are also many software products that can churn out these mini websites very quickly and you don’t have to know html code to build them.
