Easy Ways to Take Orders for Newbies

• Paypal is by far the most popular payment processor now. It is free and easy to setup. With its low fees, Paypal is a preferred choice for many newbies.

• Clickbank is the most popular choice among the gurus and internet marketers. It charges a one time setup fee for selling as well as a cut from your sales. Clickbank offers a all-in-one solution including an army of affiliates ready to sell your products. Cool, huh?

• Payloadz offers a simple solution to sell and deliver your products. It offer a free basic account with reasonable features which is great for a newbie starting with a shoestring budget. I have started using Payloadz since the beginning and still using them today.

Uploading the Minisite and Niche Product

With your sales page and download page ready, now is the time to upload your mini-site for the world to see. If you are using an online builder provided by your web host, the upload feature is usually included. What you need to do is just press a button and your site is live!

However, if you are using a stand alone html editor, you need a separate tool to publish your site. This tool is called FTP (File Transfer Protocol). FTP transfer your website files from your hard drive to your host, so that your site is visible on the internet. There many free FTP softwares available. Personally I use FileZilla (http://filezilla.sourceforge.net). It is really easy to use, and I especially like the drag and drop feature. After you have downloaded the FTP program, install it in your hard drive. To transfer files to your web host, you need to enter the information provided by your web host, including your server address, username and password.

Choose an Autoresponder

Autoresponders have become a necessity in internet marketing. Statistics have shown that most people do not buy when they come to your site the first time. On average, most people buy at the fifth to seventh contact. Imagine how time consuming if you were to contact each of your prospect for seven times. Autoresponders are like your faithful salesman which follow-up with your prospects. Beside that, an autoresponder helps you to automate signups, manage your list, send out a broadcast message, unsubscribe and backups.

There are several types of autoresponders available:

• Free autoresponders

  If you are operating with a tight budget, you can check out the free autoresponders. Free autoresponders comes with limited functions as well as you might get ads as part of messages. The more popular free autoresponders are Freeautobot and Getresponse.

• Paid autoresponders

  If you can afford it, it is highly recommended to use paid autoresponders. Not only you get a full range of essential features, it gives your messages a more professional look. The most popular and highly recommended paid autoresponder is Aweber. Other cheaper but as well alternatives are EmailAces and Rapidreply.

• Web host autoresponders

  Usually your paid web host comes with a free autoresponder as part of the package. However, these autoresponders has highly limited functions. For example, you cannot send follow up messages, broadcasts a message, or capturing your prospects' emails. Some web hosts offer more sophisticated autoresponders, so you may want to check out what your web host offers.

There you go, these are 5 very basic things you need to setup your very first 24/7 profit pulling mini-site.
