Using Just A Little More FOCUS
By Willie Crawford

It’s no secret that one of the biggest reasons that many internet marketers achieve little success is lack of focus. Many of us often have dozens of projects that we’re working on at once. Many of us have more sites than we can possibly manage.

Even worse, most of us have more tools on our computers than we can ever learn to use, and more information products than we can ever muddle through.

In talking with many contemporaries and affiliate program managers, we see that often the biggest problems many affiliates face is trying to use too many tools. They try to use everything from pay-per-clicks, to articles, to videos. Every time that they read about a new “secret traffic tool” they rush out and buy it, and ignore the ones that they were on the verge of mastering.

The solution to this problem is actually fairly simple. It’s just focusing on using one or two tools really well, and ignoring the other 90%. This is the secret of some of the top affiliates in many programs. Some, for example, focus strictly on pay-per-clicks. I focus primarily on article marketing and pay-per-clicks.

At the same time, many of my most successful contemporaries just focus on a few main websites. I personally spend most of my time on less than 10 websites even though I have 1600. Most of the others need work, and I plan on selling many of them in the coming months.

Part of the reason that you should focus on just a few websites is that you can really study and understand a few niches. You want to stay on top of what’s happening in your preferred niches, and you’ll easily out market you less focused competitors.

The final thing that we all need to focus on is more testing and tracking. That tells us what’s working best, and where we need to focus our efforts. That allows you to get your conversion rates (and profits) much higher.

One handy tool that you should get and learn to use is called Super Page Splitter. That will make you an expert at split testing without requiring a Ph.D. After you’ve started using it, you’ll wonder why you did things the hard way for so long

Commit today to getting more focused, and to closely watching which of your efforts are actually paying off. Then just do those and ignore 90% of the “noise.” You’ll feel a lot less flustered, and be amazed at the results you get.
