Prospecting without a Landing Page

Written By Lonnie Niver

One of the most difficult tasks I have found in building a business whether it's a network marketing opportunity or an affiliate marketing business is generating bumper to bumper traffic of prospects without using a landing page. Did you know there is a simple and more effective way to prospecting? I am going to share with you a tool I use to having prospects knocking at the door to join any business opportunity and it's not a landing page.

A few months ago, I came a cross a passage in an ebook I had been studying that talked about the disadvantages of using a landing page to prospect. If you don't know what a landing page is it is a web page that most business opportunities offer to distributors or affiliate marketers to generate leads. The information on the landing page gives information about the business, product/service and the cost. The problem with a landing page is that there are so many of them being used that it's almost impossible to get the page ranked on the first page of search engines. Why? Because search engines like Google indexes and caches web pages and if the web page looks like a duplicate they won't bother indexing it. But there is a simple tool that can be used to get around this that will allow more traffic and get higher up in the rankings.

Now, I am not going to sit here and say landing pages are not useful to converting prospects into buyers or referrals because they are useful for doing so. But there is a system that must be followed in order for a landing page to work.

Have you every heard of blogging?

You can keep laughing but before you stop reading hear me out. Blogging is the tool I use to generate unlimited amount of prospects. Are they legitimate prospects that actually buy? My answer is YES! My prospects are knocking down my door to sign-up for my opportunity and it feels great to actually crack the secret to prospecting.

Explain to me why it works?

Okay, here is why blogging works better than a landing page. Blogging allows us to do one thing that landing pages do not and that is adding fresh new content to the page so that when the search engines crawl the site it won't be seen as a duplicate. Plus we can submit our blog to blog directories and every time we make a new post we can ping it to all the directories to let bloggers know we have made a new post.

Remember, I said landing pages can be useful but there is a system that must be followed. The system is to add the information about the product/service and the company on the blog in your own words. Then add links to the landing page and the sign-up page with in the text. What I do is add this information as a text area so that it appears after every post and only have one post per page. Once the page is all setup all we have to do is add fresh new content every day.

Another, plus to blogging that can't be done on landing pages is that our Google Adsense and Affiliate link can be added to the blog given us the opportunity to generate more revenue as we post to the blog.

Who says I am not brilliant? Just kidding!
