10 Steps to Success

Welcome back to my Blog,

Networking online is a great way to meet people without having to leave your home. The internet is one of the best resources available to home-based business owners. Once you have an idea of how and where to network online you will be well on your way to a successful new form of marketing.

My last blog post was about getting paid to network. I've spend a few months getting to know my way around the Yuwie site and I'd like to share the 10 Steps to Succes.

I also apply these 10 Steps to Success with all the other networking sites I belong to.

1. Make your profile something worth looking at. The first thing you should do is apply or create a template for your profile, add pictures, videos, something in your shout box, etc. You want people to visit your page and visitors get bored with the same old default red and white background, so make your profile appealing and exciting so that they will visit again! But don't make it too complicated or put so much stuff on there that it takes 10 minutes to load though, because visitors also get impatient.

2. Accept all friend requests and add as many friends as you can. The more friends you have the more page views you'll get. You can start with my friends list and just go through and request to be everyone's friend. Yuwie is different from Myspace where you're usually not friends with people you don't really know. Everyone is friends with everyone on here because we are all helping each other to MAKE MONEY !

3. Do not make your profile private. If it's set to private then only a limited number of people can view your page so that just doesn't make sense! But of course, making your page public also means, for safety reasons, do not put anything too personal on your page either. Don't put where you live, where you go to school/work, etc. because even though we're all friends it's still possible to come across some weirdos lol and we want to stay safe!

4. Learn from the pros. I recommend to all of my referrals to join the How to build your yuwie: Q&A club because it has so much valuable information. There are other awesome clubs that you can learn a lot from too so go through the clubs listings and join some! Also, when submitting friend requests look for those people who are experienced and can offer advice. They all have amazing blogs with some extremely helpful information and tips. Be friends with the people who really know what they are doing and are actually making money at this and learn as much as you can from them!

5. ALWAYS reply to comments and messages. When people take the time to give you page views by leaving you comments and/or messages you should always return the favor and comment or message them back. If you never reply then your friends probably won't comment or message you as much, which means fewer page views, which means less money.

6. Keep in touch with your downline. A big part of being successful with Yuwie is being a leader and training those people you bring in so that they know what to do to make money. If they make money you make money, and inactive referrals don't make anyone money so training your referrals is imperative. I always send a Welcome to Yuwie comment and a Tips and Tricks message to my referrals to get them started. Offer to help in any way that you can, encourage your non-active referrals, praise your active referrals, and just keep in touch. It's also a good idea to send friend requests to all of your level 2 and 3 referrals as well and encourage them as much as possible too.

7. Post blogs and create clubs to generate more page views. These are great ways to send people to your page, get more friend requests, and increase your page views.

8. Refer, refer, refer!!! This is probably the most important advice I can offer you. Without referrals you won't make any money on Yuwie. They are your foundation and should be a major focus in the beginning. But a lot of people have trouble with bringing in referrals. That is because they are only advertising Yuwie to their friends and family. Friends and family are great but the big numbers come from advertising to people who are specifically looking to make money working online. I advertise my referral link on Craigslist. There are some tricks to advertising on Craigslist though, because the "Craigslist Nazis" will delete your ads if you don't go about your advertising in the right way. Technically you're not supposed to advertise the same opportunity in more than one city, but we all know that is the way to get lots of people looking at your ads. So to get around this the secret is to 1) make the posting title different for every ad that you post, and 2) delete your cookies before every new post (Craigslist tracks your activity on their site with cookies and if they see that you've posted to several cities at the same time they will come in behind you and delete all of your work). Make sure that somewhere in the body of your ad you write the words "telecommuting" or "work from home" so that it will show up when people search those words. I post about 10 ads every day, but more than that is too many. This just won't work if we totally saturate Craigslist with Yuwie ads. So post sparingly. You can also advertise on work at home message boards. One that I post my link on sometimes is the WAHM.com message boards. And of course you can always invite your myspace friends.

9. Be consistent. Yuwie is not a get rich quick thing. It takes time and effort but if you consistently work at it (especially at the referrals) you will see progress. You make small change in the beginning but just think of what will happen in the next 6 months or a year with exponential growth! It could be amazing!

10. Stay positive. I've seen people get discouraged after their first earnings report but you have to remember that this company is still a baby. Myspace started off small just like this, and look at where they are now, and without paying their members! Yuwie will be bigger than Myspace and we will make the most money because we got in on it in the beginning, so keep a positive outlook that you will eventually see results from Yuwie and it will happen!

Networking is fun, it allows you to meet new people from all over the world. Many serious entrepreneurs, from around the world, will view your contact and business information. The more links you get on quality website pointing back to you, the more money you will make online.

To your success,
