--------------------------
Hello, and Welcome.
Netpreneur News issue 35, April 1st 2003.
(April Fools Day - but this is no joke!)
Things move fast in Internet Marketing.
If you dilly and dally you can miss some truly amazing opportunities. There is an element of risk in jumping right in, but that's what eZines like ours are for. To help you make educated decisions.
ISORegister has upgraded itself to $8 a month. Well, actually $7.97 :) It's still a great deal but you HAVE missed out the locked-in $6 price. The contents have changed slightly too. You get a platinum membership of Look2Gain (http://www.look2gain.com). You get over $400 worth of new software and tools as well as a further $400 worth as a 3-Month `Loyalty Bonus`. There's also new Loyalty Bonuses every month for existing members (not new ones) so the sooner you join the more of these amazing bonuses you can receive.
There's a lot more besides and this is a great value site if you want a good program to promote that WONT cost the earth.
MegaOpp is continuing to make great strides in the industry. More details on this one scroll down to this weeks `Recommended Program`. MegaOpp is a different level to ISORegister. Both are great, yes, but MegaOpp aims a little `higher` with a corresponding greater price tag. If you're serious about making big money this is the one to get into.
Also MyWizardAds has two new features. Firstly all new ads bought will come with a copy of Easy Ezine Ad Formatter (an almost invaluable tool) but only until April 2nd. Secondly they now offer a Top Sponsor ad co-op! Unlike other co-ops Theresa's program will let you get those exclusive top slots (almost as good as a solo - it's the first thing readers see).
I know this editorial is starting to look a little like a big ad but these are important announcements. I see it as my job to keep you informed :-)
If you caught last weeks article about Push Button Publishing you'll know how special I find it. PBP works amazingly well on both it's levels. That of (A)Creating and building your own online business and (B)an amazingly efficient FREE affiliate program.
Visit there to either join up as a member or an affiliate. Last weeks article is available from:
http://www.netpreneurnow.com/articles/pbp.txt
This weeks bonuses are:
1. Double your way to a Million
2. $1000 in Free Advertising
3. eBook Course
All in your Members Site, Tools and eBook pages.
Login Details are below.
Enjoy the issue,
Yours,
Stuart Reid
Editor
P.S. I'm still deciding on Advertising rules. If you feel strongly about reading an ezine with ads (helps keep it free and helps the webmaster get new subscribers) let me know. Netpreneur News currently carries an ad issue on Sundays and a few ad swaps in this main ezine.
P.P.S. Netpreneur News will change to a Sunday publication date. This means you'll receive both your Main Edition and Ads Edition the same time - helping you keep your mailbox more organized!

The OverUse of `Free`
(C)2003 Stuart Reid
P.S. That word in the title can set off spam filters. I apologize for the special spelling to try and avoid this.
We all know that `Fr*e` word is extremely powerful. The problem is it's overuse.
A lot of people online now EXPECT things for fr*e. This undermines a projects true value. This can make it appear less than what it is.
If you get someone into your site with Fr*e as your main hook then that's exactly what they'll want. You haven't actually got very good customers then!
On the other hand there is no better way to get them in the first place. It's a tragic dilemma.
Fr*e can endear you to your customers but it's all they'll expect in the future. Fr*e can make you an internet `Robin Hood` but will expect you to work twice as hard to close actual sales. Fr*e will, in short, get you a great deal of leads but few sales.
is there a solution?
You'll need a balance! Like everything else you need to weigh the pros against the cons.
Use this powerful technique to get them in, but also stress the importance of paying. Tell them that `Anything in Life worth having is worth paying for`. Let them have the tools and tutorials for fre*e but charge for the meat and bones. It will benefit you in the long run. An affiliate or downline member of yours with the right training and utilities will work much better than one without.
Popular MLMs and Downline Building programs are often plagued with massive matrices full of fr*e members and no upgrades. Find out what they are and avoid them. The ones that limit fr*e members or don't offer them at all are best! Fr*e trials help (nothing like a deadline to spur someone to upgrade).
Free works - but it's all you get. Don't overuse it!

WHAT'S YOUR NICHE?
by Theresa Cahill
All Rights Reserved
Copyright 2003
Everyone tells you to find a niche, which is fine,
but what niche and how?
Starting at the beginning, you develop your niche
based on a few factors including: 1) what you are
interested in, and 2) what might be interesting to
others. Obviously, there are others, but these two
factors cover a lot of ground.
Recently, I've been paying particular attention to
keywords - not just the ones I've used on my website,
but those being searched for in the major search
engines.
Mike's Marketing Tools is a good place to begin since
he offers three basic needs right at my fingertips -
one of these being my ability to easily check and see
what search terms are currently (and in the past)
popular.
For example, there were 513 searches for the keywords
"1962 World's Fair."
So what could a person do with this you ask? Tsk,
tsk... where's your imagination?! Say you're
interested in Fairs Around the World. You create your
website, scour the net for input and content (NO
stealing!), and put up your website.
Then, you go back out onto the web and search down
similar/complimentary websites to your own.
You email them or call them and begin communication on
the benefits of partnering up.
Suddenly, 1200 people are searching for the "1962
World's Fair," and you're one of the ones they come to
for information.
So, is there money in such a site? Frankly, who
knows...?? But imagine if you extended yourself and
located gift items or ebooks or services related to
"Fairs Around the World." If they like what they see,
people DO buy online.
My point? Maybe too many of us are thinking
"marketing" when we need to be thinking "World's
Fair."
You'd still have to advertise your website, create
your mailing lists, contact them, etc., but you're not
trying to push the latest ebook on a bitty part of the
internet world - many already familiar with, and may
have, that very same ebook.
Get creative! Make a habit of checking keywords until
the right idea for the right thing strikes YOU!

MegaOpp Again!
Since last time it's coming on leaps and bounds! A lot more people have joined so this is probably one of the last times you can get a good, low number. Of course, you can join later but why wait?
MegaOpp is going to build many Millionaires in the future, but the vast majority of us should be able to manage a few thousand at least!
I've not even scratched the surface of MegaOpp myself yet. This is a SERIOUS program. It's been through a pre-launch, and even a highly successful `registration of interest` period (MegaList 2003). Everyone on board is serious (that word again) about it's success.
MegaOpp has a great collection of exclusive tools and products. This isn't your usual `ebook` membership site! I guarantee you will not have used anything like the `Promoteur` or the `Flash Page Creator` elsewhere. There's also an online cinema with Video Training for almost all aspects of Online Wealth Building. Couple this with one of the industries best laid-out downline/matrix programs (and this one actually plays fair!) then you'll see how you have a very good chance with this.
The whole concept of People Helping People is taken to the limits with MegaOpp. Come join us, or at least visit the site, and discover how YOU could kickstart your future wealth today!
