Global NPN is the perfect online business for beginners because it has everything that you could possibly need and all in one place. That's excellent. But to promote the affiliate plan successfully (as with anything else online), you will need your own website or blog and you simply must have a plan for getting daily web traffic.
Earning money as an NPN affiliate really boils down to three(3) simple things:
1) Traffic - Getting people to the site where your affiliate links are
2) Explanation - Giving people the introduction to Global NPN
3) Conversions - Turning visitors into affiliates
Traffic is the most popularly touched on topic, probably because most people find it to be so hard to get tons of people to a site. The main reason for that (in my opinion) is because they're impatient and don't want to learn. But you don't really need to learn a 'million' different ways to drive traffic to your site.
One method is more than enough in most cases, though having more helps. With online business, too much is never enough!
But, if you are just starting out, I'd recommend that you focus on (and get good at) one traffic generation method before moving on to learning another one. Why? Because you can concentrate on it and get good at it, that's why! What good is it if you're no good at it? And if you have too many options, you will get hit by analysis paralysis, and not do anything because there are just too many things you can do. It's called 'overwhelm'. It's probably the #1 problem for beginners and it's THE major cause of burn-outs.
Think along with me...
If you are a true master of just one traffic generation method, and can drive targeted traffic to any site at any time, you won't have any problems earning money online. Once the traffic problem is solved, offer and conversion is just a step away.
Right now, the most popular method for driving traffic is through back-linking and SEO, and chances are it's the method that you are using too. The reason why it's so popular is that it helps you get number one rankings in the search engines, and this will help give you Free targeted traffic on a daily basis. Note I said targeted traffic, meaning you give people what they are looking for, and the chances are much higher that they'll join NPN from your site.
Doing this is very easy with SEO compared with other traffic generation methods. If people are searching for "dog training material", you give them dog training material that they can buy. Simple as that.
Global NPN is the perfect online business for beginners. So create content on your site that is oriented to Internet Marketing newbies and direct their attention to Global NPN and explain it's many benefits. If you can get good (really good) at doing this one thing, there's no limit to how much you can earn.

How do average people make online MLM work?

How can I get more website traffic for free?
Website Traffic is the greatest challenge for most people who are working online to build a full or part-time income. So today, we’ll look at a the most basic and important way in which to increase traffic to your site... for free. When you join my team at Global NPN, you will want traffic to the affiliate links that you place on your website and/or blog.
But just know that it takes time to build up a consistent flow of targeted traffic to your website. One of the truths that every newcomer to this industry must accept is that nothing happens quickly. Remember, I said “build” traffic - not create tons of it overnight out of thin air. It’s a process, just like every other aspect of starting and managing an online business. That said, it really isn’t all that hard. And it doesn’t take nearly as much time as you might imagine. By the way, the competition is rarely as fierce as it seems at first either. That's because most people just don't try very hard and they aren't persistent and consistent… as you must be.
So let's talk specifics.
Before you try any other methods of getting traffic, it’s important to make sure your website is properly optimized. This is called SEO, which stands for Search Engine Optimization. If you don't intentionally optimize your content (blog posts, articles, forum threads, etc) for a specific keyword phrase, and intentionally get backlinks to that content, you won't get anywhere near as much traffic (and readers) as you otherwise would. It only makes sense to optimize with a purpose, and with a plan. Otherwise you’re cheating yourself out of more traffic, and most importantly – better traffic. You want to target what’s called long-tail keyword phrases. These are longer, more specific (and less competitive) keyword phrases. You don’t just want to choose any phrase though – you want to use keyword targeting to attract a very specific type of visitor. Take the title to this post, for example: 'How can I get more website traffic for free?' That's a long-tail phrase that somebody, somewhere, is typing into a search engine every day.
Don't give up before you get started.
Don’t let the idea of competition scare you off. The truth is, most competitors are rarely as skilled or dominating as they appear to be. The fact that they achieved their rankings (and their business success), should prove to you that it can be done for an affiliate business like Global NPN. There's your proof right there. Just keep in mind that it didn’t happen overnight for them either.
Start with long tail keyword phrases that are easier to rank for, as I mentioned above. Make sure every page of your site or blog is properly optimized for a well-chosen keyword phrase, and that each page has a very specific call-to-action or links to Global NPN. Make sure these two things are done before you start testing other marketing strategies. That will allow your site to get established in the major search engines and begin rising in the results. Without those links (or a specific call-to-action), your web traffic is useless. So make sure it’s in place!
Once you have your site or blog ready for rankings & traffic, the next step is to look at ways you can leverage your competitors. Analyze the search results for the more competitive keyword phrases as they relate to joining Global NPN. Look over the top 10-20 pages and consider ways you can leverage those. Remember, you want to attract people who are considering NPN (or online MLM in general), and not those who are already members! Are they Internet Marketing blogs? Then leave a comment that links back to your site. That’s just one simple (and free!) way to take advantage of their high rankings, and funnel that search engine traffic straight into your own site!
There are endless ways to get website traffic, but ignoring SEO is like shooting your blog in the foot from the very beginning. Article Marketing (for example) will bring in traffic because it works in a way that is similar to your blog. But if you optimize the title of your article, it will get far more views from specific keyword searches. And if you optimize the anchor text in the link within your article, the page on your site/blog you link to will rank higher for that term. So, as you can see, most online marketing strategies lead back to SEO and keyword targeting. They’re all connected. That’s why keyword research and optimization is where you should start. It’s the foundation to almost every other way you’ll use to increase traffic to your site. I encourage you to go back to your blog or website and analyze it closely. Is every single page optimized for a specific keyword phrase? Does every single page or post have a strong call-to-action regarding Global NPN? If not, start there before you worry about other traffic-generation methods.
There’s no point do any other marketing work until you’re set up to rank & convert…

How can beginners make money online?
"If I'm just starting out with the whole Internet Marketing thing, where do I even begin?" There are a number of established ways to earn money online and you should focus on one of them. The three(3) most basic options range from buying & selling on ebay, creating your own product or service (to sell online), to making money as an affiliate (i.e. selling someone else's products and services).
Speaking of focus, with so many options to make money online – single-minded focus is paramount. You want to choose a subject (i.e. niche), such as carring for parrots, and a business model to work with, and then work on that one project all the way from start to profitability. Don’t let all the other options distract or derail you... because you will be bombarded with them! Once you decide on a topic or niche, you should sit down and map out a plan for your Internet business model. What market are you targeting, and how can you best serve that market? What is it that your potential online customers want and need the most? This is the angle you want to work from, vs the more common: 'how can I make the most money from this market?' (hint: Most people get it backwards and then get frustrated when that doesn’t work out for them)
So you choose a niche, create a blog or website, set up social media profiles to interact with your target market on the topic, and you create and share useful content that will build your reputation and readership in that niche. But I can hear what you’re saying right now… “That all sounds great, but how do I make money from it?”
The absolute easiest way to make money online is with Affiliate Marketing. You don’t have to create a product, set up a shopping cart and merchant account, do customer service, work with clients, etc. It’s very much like a traditional commission-based sales job where you earn a commission on any sales you refer. The difference is that you’re doing it online, and you can do it from home without ever doing in-person or phone sales. You simply recommend products and/or refer people to specific merchants through the content on your website.
The sales method that I prefer is creating content that is optimized to rank well in the major search engines. People find it when they are searching for that, click through, and buy what they need or want. This works really well because you write the content once, and it continues to rank well and earn you money for years to come. As long as you maintain your search engine rankings.
But you're still asking... “How can I make 3-4k a month or more? What steps will it take to get there?”
I know this is stating the obvious, but it should be said: It takes time, work, and being both persistent and consistent. An online business is the same as any other business in that it requires an investment on your part to get it up and running. The positive side of online business is that it takes a lot less time and money than most traditional offline business models.
Do these 10 steps, in this order, to get started:
Make Global NPN your 'home program'
Choose Your Niche
Register a Domain Name
Set up a Website or WordPress Blog
Set up a Facebook Page and Twitter
Create Optimized Content for your Site/Blog
Sign up for Affiliate Programs in your niche
Write Product Reviews for those products
Get links pointing to your pages or posts
Continue creating content, getting links & interacting via Social Media
Once you get all this set up and you’re making money as an Affiliate, you can look at other ways to monetize your site. You might create short reports on your topic to sell, test contextual advertising, or look into even more methods to make money.
Yes, it’s work. In fact, it's a LOT of work. It's so mcu work that only a handfull of people will do what it takes to succeed online. But if you're one of those who want it badly enough, what I have outlined here will work for you over time. And yes – it’s worth it!
If you do these steps, and continue to learn & tweak as you go (very important), you’ll start earning money online. You can increase your traffic (number of visitors) and your income as you continue to grow and market your website. It takes time to get to a consistent $3-5K per month in revenue, but you could easily do that within the first year.
Speaking of focus, with so many options to make money online – single-minded focus is paramount. You want to choose a subject (i.e. niche), such as carring for parrots, and a business model to work with, and then work on that one project all the way from start to profitability.

I'm just about about fed up with affiliate marketing
I've been scammed more than once. How about you? Aren’t you fed up with the get rich quick scams - everyone promising heaven and delivering hell? You know what I'm talking about. It's the worthless junk that 'sounds' easy enough. But once you get started and pay your money, you find out that it will never work like they promised it would. That, or it's just too damned complicated.
I’ve had it with the 'guru' techniques that just NEVER work for the average guy or gal like you and me. These are the time wasters, the high-priced junk programs, the affiliate stuff... you name it. How about something truly revolutionary, because of how easy, simple and cheap it is? How about something that has been running quietly and building momentum like nothing ever has before on the world-wide web?
Global NPN
As the word keeps spreading about this amazingly inexpensive program, thousands of users (worldwide!) are multiplying their cash and growing their lists. This could be you, as well. Why not? Start slowly, while you're learning and earning. You'll be an expert in no time... and you can forget about ever getting scammed again.

Is Global NPN a good program?
Of course, it is. Not only is Global NPN designed to be your 'home program' (because it has all the tools you need in ONE place), it's explosive affiliate plan makes it a self-contained business. It's a one of those rare deals that actually pays out 100% to it's members! I'm a "work at home" marketer, just like you are, and so we both need the same things - a decent web host, blogging software, autoresponders, training and support, turn-key marketing systems and so on. Global NPN has all of that... for $11.00 a month. It's unreal.
And if you can invite just 1 new affiliate per month (and each of them does the same), you'll have an annual income of over $50,000 within a year's time! That is not much work for a $11 affiliate program, and that's why everyone is so excited about it. It's only $11 per month to get started and get access to a full e-marketing suite of products that will create multiple streams of income automatically for you! They have an incredible multi-program autoresponder that you can use to promote "any" opportunity you want. That feature alone is actually worth the few dollars you pay for the whole suite of tools provided.
Their affiliate pay-plan pays out in 4 ways including a HUGE 100% matching bonus on all your personal referrals, which is where I'll make most of my money. There's a lot more to tell, so please check it out and get back to me: Global NPN
Come and join my team and let's make this fun!

How can I grow my NPN downline?
That's an important question! Well if you are part of my Global NPN Team, I can help you in a number of ways. For one thing, I can help you set up a website like this one and get visitors to it on a daily basis. That's important, because there is an infinite supply of people looking for online marketing tools and a quality affiliate program like the one at Global NPN.
There are all kinds of ways to advertise online (and 'offline'!), but the best thing you can do is establish a web presence that draws in organic search engine traffic. So that is one way that you can grow your downline. Another way is to promote your link in Traffic Exchanges. But for that, you will need specialized ads, tied to a special offer - i.e. some unique and special reason for prospects to join Global NPN through your affiliate link, rather than somebody else's. In short, you have to give value. 'You have to give in order to receive.' This is best accomplished through your NPN autoresponder, through a series of helpful marketing/training tips and links to freebies. In short, you need to be the kind of upline sponsor that you've always wanted, but probably never had!
Keep following this blog for lot and LOTS of new ideas about how we can build something special together with Global NPN.
