As I promised you on a previous post I will be writing about my product launch.
So what I first did was hiring a mentor and started writing my ebook that I am going to launch very soon. The ebook is especially written to newbies internet marketers that want to start a successful internet marketing correctly and avoid all the mistakes that I made in that last years.
So here is what else I did until today.
I ordered some quality graphics for the website and the product from Ray Johnson Online Design. We had a discussion about how exactly I want them to look, what message to give etc. A graphic should not only have to have a quality appearance. It has to give a suitable message to the visitor and the potential customer. The color and the text that will be used on the header, the opt-in box the background are very important.
You want to give your website a professional look, feel and identity. I let them design the complete site graphics including the header the footer the order button and the optin-box.
A header is very important for a website. It is proven by many internet marketers that a website header increases the conversion like 300%. Yes 300%! This means that you can make more sales just from that little header.
I also have the ecovers created for the ebook. To make the ebook look professional you have to create some high quality ecovers. Many people decide if a product is good or bad just from its appearance. No matter how good your ebook is, you got to get your own quality ebook covers to boost your sales.
An excellent product with a wonderful cover and a professional looking website are not enough. A website with no visitors will never make you any money. You have to also get some advertising banners so that you and your affiliates can use them to bring you traffic. Although banners used to be more successful some years ago they still are an effective way of advertising your website, attracting traffic and affiliates. Banners are proven effective tools and are needed for every information product you create.
Although I am not a graphics designer I could create my graphics on my own. Well I have to admit that I am not perfect creating them, that is why I let someone else create them. You can either find someone on freelance websites such as Elance, GetaFreeLancer, oDesk or an individual service like Ray Johnson Online Design, PlusMiniSites, DesignGuruRyan etc.
As I wrote in the beginning of this blog post, for my product launch I used Ray Johnson Design Service. If you want some affordable professional looking graphics for your ebook, minisite, Adsense sites, CD/DVDs covers, business cards, twitter backgrounds that will also include the correct marketing I highly recommend you to check them out. These guys will also design a 100% custom blog for you in a very low price. Ray’s team not only knows how to create beautiful and professional graphics for any situation but they also know internet marketing. This is very important since graphics are used to “communicate” with the visitors and give them the correct messages. Remember. A picture is worth a thousand words and words are the one that are making you sales. Don’t forget that!
There are some more things that I’ve done this week but since I don’t want this post to get too long I will let you know more on another blog post soon.
Talk to you soon.

Hi Eliza and thanks for your good comments.
Yes I would highly recommend you to start blogging if you are really serious
about affiliate marketing. Just download WordPress
and install it on a domain name. You could use a service like Blogspot but you wont have enough control on it.
