Getting Massive Web Exposure

There are many steps to closing a sale online. You start with posting a web presence, and then you must optimize and advertise that presence in order to get opt-ins. Next you must follow up on those opt-ins with emails and phone calls in order to get some of them interested in your product or your business. Once you have sifted out the true leads, you must negotiate with each one individually, and finally close the deal. This article deals with the first step of establishing a web presence, and ends with the last step, the close.

Posting a web presence is not the same thing as massive web exposure. By posting a web presence I mean putting up a web page or two, and then posting to a few social networking sites. Massive web exposure means making that web presence something beyond invisible. So, in a sense, the two are related, but are not exactly the same thing.

In the second part, closing a deal, the massive web presence you have created can be a very useful thing. While the prospect is teetering on the knife-edge between a yes or a no, you can influence that decision by asking them to type your name, or the name of your company, into a search engine. Bang! Instantly, the page fills with references of what you have done. Very powerful.

Prospects are looking for leadership, and this demonstrates that you can provide it. But you cannot own this credibility without actually earning it.

This means putting out the content.....blogs, articles, and press releases, consistently. It also means putting out videos, or at least posting other peoples videos to keep your name active with the search spiders.

There is a ton of free marketing advice on the web, and the best way I know of to develop original content is to read a few related articles on a topic that interests you, digest them, fit them into your own mental structure of how marketing works, and then write about the idea in your own words. This is the ongoing process of self-education that we all should be engaged in.

This method probably will NOT result in totally original content, but it will reflect your own slant on the topic material. It will also fortify your personal knowledge base on marketing, which is a long-term process of self-improvement, and eventually manifests itself in increased sales.

Putting out a blog or two every week will keep your web presence fresh, and ever growing. The next step is to develop those blogs into articles.

The difference between a blog and an article is largely differences in length, and quality. In short, the blog is the rough draft of the article, Once you have posted the blog, review what you have written, expand on the important points, fortify your assertions with some direct quotes and references from the web, punch up the language a bit for impact and style, and BOOM! You have an article!

Now.....that's the way it was done LAST year....and on the Internet that's like saying it was a lifetime ago. Yes, it's still effective, and even necessary, but on todays web, it takes a little more. It would help to increase your web presence ENORMOUSLY if you create audio and video content for your social networking sites, your commercial pages, and the usual posting outlets. But that's a topic for another day.
