Yesterday, I have written internet marketing consultant. You must have long journey to become consultant. The thing you have to do is "start now". If you want to be expert in this area, you must practice as an internet marketing performer. You have no experience about this? don't worry, I will explain you a fundamental article about internet marketing for beginners.

It is best practice to become an internet marketer. Steps which I've written is based on experience. The experience of one person by another person is different, but I believe the fundamental point is the same. Maybe you can develop other footsteps that you think easier. Who knows the stages that you develop will make you successful. The essence is you have to get ready to start, learn, and try.

Here are the step internet marketing for beginners:

Getting information from internet

The first step is to try to get as much information as possible about the product that you sell. This information is intended to analyze about the product supplier, how many the product searches on search engines, keywords which are appropriate for your product, and so on.

As a beginner, you may want to analyze the above by using a free tool. You should be happy, because Google has provided the tool for you, namely: Google adwords keyword tool, Google insight, Google trends, and others. Once you have analyzed comprehensively, you can continue with step two.

Choosing a business segment

At this stage, of course you already know the detail information about the product so you can focus your product to market by region (export or local), a segment based on age, and so on. For example: handicraft for teens which will be marketed overseas.

Why do you need to create a segment like this? This is performed to get ease to implement marketing strategies. For example, if your market share is abroad, you must create an ad in the international online marketplace. It is not very effective if you advertise in the local marketplace. Another example is if your product is aimed at teenagers, then sales copy or copywriting that you make must fit to the theme of  teenagers nuances.

Creating a website    

Essentially you can try with hosting and a free engine like wordpress.com or can also blog at blogger.com. But you can also directly create a website on the paid hosting with wordpress engine.

After that, you must select the domain. Choosing the right domain is essential for your SEO implementation, because the domain name is one of the things that affect search engine ranking.

In the process of creating a website, you must design comprehensively in the content, website design, as well as the structure of the website so that the results can be optimal.

Updating content

Forget a quick way to get quick cash. To achieve the real success, you have to pass through the process, there is no shortcut for this. Every day you have to fill out the informative content to your web visitors. Content can be articles, pictures, or video. This will enrich the content of your website in addition to product descriptions and the catalog of your products. Unique and good content  will have a good SERP in search engines. In addition, new visitors will increase to see your website, and old visitors will visit your website again.

Visiting another website

You must type the keyword in search engine and search for your product, then visit the website that sells or imports of similar products with your product. Record details such as telephone number and email. Find the website as much as possible. After that you should contact them to make an offer to supply your product into their stores. You should do this every day, until someone answers your offering.

Remember, after get contacting with potential partners, do the best practices I've described in another article. You can find in this blog. By doing the best practice, I believe, they will approve your offering.

Join in the online marketplace

In addition to visiting prospective partner website, you must register on the online marketplace. An example is the alibaba.com. There is a need to pay to become a member, but there are free member too. My advice, you must register on the marketplace that has a good reputation.

Applying SEO

Traffic coming to your site come from a link from another website, the online marketplace, social media, social bookmarking, and organic search. Organic search is the traffic coming from search engines when people write down a specific keyword and your website appear on the first page in search engines, then the person is visiting your website.

So you must get organic traffic increasingly. Why should  you focus from organic search? because they are a prospective customer. Because they want to find product information with a particular keyword in the search engines. If they land on your website, then a personal approach with them will be easier and conversion rates are generally high.

Keep learning and implementation

As I mentioned earlier, there are no shortcuts. All things require a process. In this process, you must keep learning. After learning, you have to practice in your daily life. You have to measure whether your strategy is successful or not. If not successful, learn more and apply that knowledge to your success.

Believe me, after you experience this process, you will be expert. After that you can become an Internet marketing consultant. But before that, once again, you must initiate the first step. That's why I wrote an article about internet marketing for beginners.
