Gordon,
...timing... simple website?
Also, I would like to run my headline by you. Just give me your opinion. Good, bad or otherwise.
The webpage will be promoting a self help product and the content will be about quantam physics, attraction, abundance, giving, etc, etc. Just enough to peak their interest as long as this is the sort of thing they are interested in.
Anyway, here's the headline. "Are You Using These Universal Laws To Achieve Financial Freedom And Independence?" :confused:
Timing and web sites.
I've highlighted a couple of your keywords. Words that might be searched for. So let's search:
From Google: Search; "attraction abundance", two keywords isolated, and the top competition:
At #1:
http://healing.about.com/cs/selfactualization/a/lawofattraction.htm
#2:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPUQigT7IGw A YOU tube thing.
#3:
http://top7business.com/?cat=Attraction-Abundance
Interesting thing there are no ads when the quotes are used. Let's try it a different way, without quotes, we get TWO ads (same top 3):
http://www.overnightcashexplosion.com/index/index.asp?refsite=google
A HYPE site that is trying to cash in on the "Attraction" angle.
The other ad is from wisdomhunter.com and the link doesn't work, I've tried it in different browsers...there's a good use of ad money, eh?
Then I searched this:
quantum physics, law of attraction BINGO. All kinds of sites, all kinds of paid advertising.
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=quantum+physics%2C+law+of+attraction
It appears your product might be found in this category. Appears to be a good lake to fish in, lots of interest in the subject matter. So, let's look at the top sites and ads to see how timing fits in.
Kate Corbin gets the top indexed site by using the Google friendly ezinearticles site.
http://ezinearticles.com/?The-Law-of-Attraction-and-Quantum-Physics&id=223148 Her site is coaching of the law of attraction, I'd think she'd be your competition?
http://www.goldstarcoaching.com/ She is selling ebooks.
#2 search result: http://www.scienceofrealitycreation.com/ This appears to be a google ads site, the owner trying to cash in on the interest in such things by setting up a site that has google ads on every page. Didn't go deep enough to see if it sells something specific.
#3 search result
http://www.myfavoriteezines.com/ezinedirectory/law-of-attraction.html I didn't stay long enough to figure it out, maybe you will.
And I'll include #4 because the Google returns a "headline":
"Do you make these law of attraction blunders." This guy has a swipe file and buys into the "Halbert" school of advertising.
The google link takes you to: another ARTICLE (HINT)... http://www.selfgrowth.com/articles/Doyle14.html
and his website is:
http://www.wealthbeyondreason.com/
Where he pitches you a membership. Join up and you're directed to this:
"Go Ahead and Laugh...But These Principles Create Millionaires, Change Lives, And are At Your Disposal 24 Hours A Day."
OK, I'll spare you the google ads, however, IF it were me doinng this project, I'd check every top 10 site out, both indexed, sponsored links top (premium paid to be there) and sponsored links right panel.
That would give me an idea of what's out there. Maybe use alexa rankings and do some google searches to see who is getting traffic, and perhaps get a better idea of the market, and know how much they are paying for these key words.
If you are a woman (the majority user of "The Secret" for finding love)...then the headline above would not appeal to you. Your search would be different, probably along the lines of "law of attraction love" and several variations.
IF you are a man seeking a money making opportunity, then the above headline may appeal to you at the time you see it. Your target is SEEKING you out, therefore it is a central preoccupation at the time he meets your promotion, your web site. And he will spend a New York Second looking at it, and IF it catches his attention, IF it resonates with what is on his mind, maybe he'll stay and read it, you have a shot of converting a prospect to a customer.
So it goes full circle to KNOWING your target, what he/she wants, how getting this "thing" will improve his/her life. KNOWING that, target information allows you to create the web site that has the strongest appeal to your market. Now regarding your headline.
"Are You Using These Universal Laws To Achieve Financial Freedom And Independence?"
OK, now that I've shared some of my research, let me ask you...
What do you think?
IF you follow it up IMMEDIATELY on the page with revealing what THESE laws are, then you stand a shot...however, if the first two laws the same old-same old "Secret" type and are the "I already know this" variety, you'd better have some dang compelling copy to go along with it. That's my OPINION. Good luck.
