Top 5 New And Lesser-Known Online Business Ideas

1. Ask people to find a hidden link in your ad copy. If they
find the hidden link tell them they will get a prize or freebie
by clicking on it. This will increase the chance that they will
buy your product or service because they will read your
whole ad copy.

2. Start a members only web site. Tell visitors what's in your
members only site and what it costs to get access. Offer them
a free membership, if, in exchange they link to your web site,
post your banner on their home page or agree to advertise
your web site in their e-zine for a set period of time. Usually
they will agree to the free advertising to save money. This is
a powerful way to get free advertising.

3. Want a popular discussion board? This technique is based on
the number of postings made by any one person. You could
give away a free product or service to any person that posts ten
or more messages on your discussion in a month. It could be a
free e-book, report, e-mail consulting etc. Just keep track of
everyone's postings each month. This could also work for e-mail
discussion lists.

4. Give your visitors an instant article directory. Tell your
visitors they can instantly add a free article directory to
their web site by linking to yours. Just place your ad or banner
ad on top of the article directory for your main product or
service. All those links can add up to a large amount of traffic
for your web site.

5. There a millions of web sites on the internet. Instead of
marketing your web site as a web site. Market it as a free web
book. Design your web site with a title page, table of contents,
chapters, etc. Just place your ad or banner for your product or
service on the top of each web page.

How to Turn a Blog Post Into One Or More Articles

Leverage is one of the most strongest point of article marketing. You could use existing content and turn it into articles. You can also use articles and repurpose them for other content formats. How could you turn a blog post into one or more articles?

The good news is, a blog post usually is an article too. You can post anything from commentaries, opinions and even multimedia content to the blog, but basically you can turn a blog post into an article or two just as easily.

First, you can just edit here and there to get the blog post into one article. If that article consists of many different ideas, like 3-7 tips on something, you could then take each of the tips and make it an article of its own.

For instance, if you take one article, you could write down several things that you know about that tip. That makes a great outline or skeleton for the article. You can expand each of the point from there. One point may be one or two paragraphs.

It only takes one very simple idea to make it into one full article. Often, I am able to extract 10 or more ideas just from a single article.

Let's take an article about tips to grow your first rose in your garden. You could write as many articles as the number of tips, one for each of them. Besides that, you could also write about the pitfall each of the tips have and how to overcome them. Those can be 2 or more articles.

How about the top 3 problems or things you learn over the years in growing roses? It may as well be related to the tips above. You may turn the same points into other articles, just the format is different.

If you have a blog post, sit down and brainstorm some ideas to turn this into a few articles and get writing. Remember, you can turn that extra articles into blog posts too.
