Reason #1) They put up their web site, and then wonder why no visitors are coming. In other words, they do nothing and wonder why they are not making any money.

This is the number one killer for your ebiz, or any business for that matter. You MUST do something if you want your business to grow and prosper. There are many options that you can use on the Internet for getting visitors to your site. Find out what works best for you, and then keep doing it. But, you MUST do something!

Reason #2) Ineffective Ad Copy or Web Site Copy.

Let's face it; if you don't have compelling ad copy no one is going to visit your site from your marketing efforts. If and when you get visitors to your site, the message on your web site must be compelling enough to get them to fill out a form, or ask for more information. If you don't have the experience or skill of writing good copy, you have two choices:

a) You can learn how to write copy
b) You can hire someone to write the copy for you

In my opinion learning to write your own copy is best. Who knows your business better than you? I have paid ones to write copy for me before and have never been happy with the result. There are good copywriters out there to be sure, but they won't treat your project like their baby - because t is not! Learn how to do it yourself, and you can launch a new product or service any time you get ready!

A few programs exist that will help you write better copy. Of the ones we have investigated, we prefer Yanic Silver's Instant Sales Letters at:

Reason #3) This reason really ties in with the first 2, yet is important enough to be in it's own category. Here it is: ==> Folks Don't Read Enough!

You would think that this would not be a problem on the Internet, but it is a HUGE one! I'm not sure why people get online and then don't read or do any homework, but they don't. The net is all about information, and if you want to take advantage of the possibilities, you better learn to read!

I must spend a couple grand each year or more buying books, ebooks, and other info products. If you are in business not only is this necessary but you can write off the cost of educating yourself.

Too many would-be entrepreneurs feel they can skimp in this area. Not only do they not purchase any study material, but they won't read any free content either. Then you have the group that does purchase books and other material for their business, and then they never take time to read it. What a waste! They probably have an ebook or other info product right there on their hard drive and they simply forgot they have it, or won't take time to do any homework.

There you have it, the top 3 reasons why folks fail in their online marketing efforts. To avoid this in your own business simply:

· Do something (don't set on your hands and expect business to come to you) · Work on your ad copy and web site copy or hire a professional · Do your homework - READ!
