Editor's Comments 

Barry Scott -Digest Editor

December! Major holidays are around the corner and with 29 days left we will be starting another year. I would like to publish a year end review in the Digest and would appreciate any ideas of what you would consider highs and/or lows for 2008! Of course I would appreciate it if you could keep the suggested high or low in general terms and not to personal.

It really was a strange year with what seems like plenty of positives at the beginning of the year and some real low points towards the end, however it does not always reflect the same for everyone and I would like to see if we can find a contrast as to why the year was in reverse form for some and not for others.

As always and feedback or questions are always welcome, just click on my name below

Sincerely, Barry Scott Editor

 Writing Ad Copy for Internet Marketing

By Ed Duvall
 
Getting your message across, whether in a small classified ad, main site or sales page requires several specific points or requirements to be met if you want to get a positive response from people who read it. Whether or not your website is selling something or just providing information to share with others you want to keep in mind that you are actually writing ad copy and it's important to use good copywriting techniques to get your message read completely by others.

(1) Make it LASER TARGETED. Be specific. Writing ad copy for internet marketing is all about painting a broad brush stroke of information with enticing details layered within the content of the overall message. Not everyone who starts reading will finish so what you want to do is get the folks who are very interested in what you have to offer, to read through and finish what you have written and then click through to the splash, info or sales page that you want them to go to.

(2) MIND CATCHING Headline. The single most important sentence for your ad. If you can't capture your readers attention on the first line they'll never read the rest of your ad. How can you do this? Create curiosity that compels the viewer to read on.

(3) Tell the person about the BENEFITS. What's in it for him/her. Is it going to solve their problem. Write as if you're talking to only one person because in fact you're only trying to get the attention of one person at a time no matter what form of mass communication you're using. If you want to get the most from your ad you should always try to make the reader feel that they can easily use your product after they get it. If you say it can be difficult or hard you'll lose a lot of people. People want to avoid pain or loss and/or feel like they have gained what they want or have gotten closer to achieving something by using your product.

Remember this - your ad is designed to do only one thing, to convince the reader to take action and click on the link you've provided so they can learn more. If you use the formula above you'll surely get more potential click throughs and sales.

Common Technical Questions

                                                               
I had purchased Traffic Exchange/Impression credits and they ran out and now it shows me as having negative credits, am I obligated to pay for those?

No. Our system for both the Traffic Exchange and the Impressions (Banner/Text) display will always overrun and produce a negative credit balance. The reason is that when the system is aware that you account is getting low on credits or you are at a level where it will get ready to stop, but it cannot account for the views that are in the queue as traffic to our site fluctuates on a daily basis.

So your Ad/Banner may be set up to run in the next few minutes and because we are dealing with 1000s of displays per hour the database cannot account for the credits that will be displayed in queue and will run regardless of the credit balance. Therefore the TE and Impressions will always run into the negative which works to the member's advantage as the member is not accountable for overdrawn credits.
