So doesn't it seem, that many of these sites don't earn profits due to poor sales copy instead of the lack of traffic? Look at the statistics. On-line sales are up; people are spending more money on-line than ever. Then why are so many web sites not earning the profits they deserve?

For the most part it is due to the lack of training in developing quality sales copy. Most affiliate programs tell you all you need to do is put up a banner or place a text link on your site and you will start earning huge profits. Don't believe them.

Yes, driving traffic is obviously an important task. Without traffic you have no one to sell to. However, you first need to develop the art of creating a sales page which is actually designed to sell!

Many on-line businesses have developed the art of getting traffic to their sites and it is really a shame when thousands of visitors leave without buying. Isn't this defeating your whole purpose of spending your time and hard earned money building your web sites?

Learn to create good sales copy and earn higher profits with less traffic no matter what you are selling. Many sites with good sales copy have sales conversion rates of 10% to 20% when they have highly targeted visitors.

Just think. If you create a sales page that is highly responsive and your conversion rate is 5% and you make only $20 off each sale. For every 100 visitors to your site will make you a profit of $100.

Now you can spend that extra bit of advertising revenue and get several thousand visitors a month and you have a comfortable home business making you a really nice living..

Learn which words and phrases have long been proven to grab the attention of visitor's and make them react favorably to sales copy. Never forget customers are interested in what you can do for them or how a product or service can make their life better or easier.

Visitors don't typically want to know about your company or how many people you employee. They want to know how the product or service is going to help them. You can always add an "About Our Company" page, just don't use valuable sales space. It is critical to get their attention fast and tell them how you're product or service is going to make their lives better.

Your Product Benefits Are What Sells!

Spend some time to really get to know your products. While reviewing your products or services jot down every benefit the product or service has to offer a potential customer.

Now start composing your sales message listing every possible benefit that your product or service has to offer making your visitors life a little easier and improving their quality of life. Make your customer think before you ever consider asking for a sale!

When you have completed your list of benefits brain storm for a while and come up with all the keywords you think your visitors might use to search for your product while visiting their favorite search engines.

You will need to work these keywords and phrases into your sales copy to optimize your page for search engine ranking. (See our section on developing search engine traffic for more information on this.)

Be creative, take a while and don't try to make a sale with a three or four paragraph sales message. Let your visitors know all the benefits of your product. Visitors are searching for lots of information so don't be afraid to use a long sales message. Studies show that long copy produces more sales than short copy.

Remember. Get to the benefits fast. Your visitors didn't come to your site to read about your company. They are searching for ways to make their life better or solve a particular problem they have. So get to the benefits right from the start or they will click off your site before they ever see your great product.

You Gotta Ask For Action!

You've listed all your product benefits and now have your visitor's attention. Now is the time to refresh their memories with a brief summary of your main benefits. This is the time to tell your visitor about your product guarantee and return policy. Hopefully you have associated yourself with a company, which offers a money back guarantee.

You might be surprised how many people stop here. Especially when selling on the web You Gotta Ask! Come straight out and ask them to take action.

List your phone number, or address if your taking orders by phone or mail. Ask them to send an e-mail or Click Here To Order Now if you taking credit cards and checks on-line. It doesn't make any difference how you process the order, just directly ask your visitor to become your customer. It is shocking how many sites never ask for action.

Spending the time and effort to learn how to design and create a selling web site is not just a benefit. A well designed and written web site will bring you from just having a web site, to making a living with your web site.

Do your research, and with study and practice you will learn to write an income generating sales page that will bring you your share of the constantly growing Internet fortune.
