Traffic Portal Theory & Application

The term Portal was coined with the advent of the first search system, Yahoo. Before Yahoo we used software called Gopher to find things on the Internet. Back then; there was little if any positioning, strategies or real marketing going on except for the usage of spam. As we all know, spam sucks, doesn't work and even if it did, is totally unethical. In fact the whole leads business of producing or buying leads and selling and reselling them in my professional opinion is just as despicable as slavery was not so long ago! The practice of selling people's private and personal information is the root cause of the three sins of marketing. Spam, telemarketing and unsolicited faxes.

So what does this have to do with Traffic Portals? Well, nothing and everything. Portals are sites like Yahoo that build repeat visits and loyal users to their service. In so doing they can sell exposure to their visitors to advertisers in the form of banners, ads in their mailings, etc.

All major lead brokers use lead capture sites (Traffic Portals) that attract subscribers. Many smaller lead brokers buy from them in bulk. The whole feeding chain continues all the way to the resellers, buying and selling your personal information as if it was nothing more than a commodity. Makes you want to puke! And….they don't want you to do it, because they want you to buy their leads. The point is, to market effectively and ethically on the Internet you need Traffic Portals (lead capture sites), that attract subscribers, that not only subscribe to them, but promote them as well, and protect the subscriber from being bought and sold! This is exactly what Veretekk has built.

The Core Of Your Veretekk System Is The Traffic Portal!

Each Traffic Portal has been positioned and designed to primarily attract the entrepreneur from different facets of the market. These Traffic Portals are like magnets. Once you establish traffic to them, they compel the right visitors to go ahead and sign up for the frss service they are offering. The signup process is easy, self verifies the information, then something wonderful happens. The subscriber to that Traffic Portal actually gets what the Traffic Portal promised. This establishes credibility and trust. Then another wonderful thing happens with Veretekk Traffic Portals. If you're a Veretekk distributor, and that Traffic Portal was yours, only YOU get notified of this new Premium lead and if you don't call them, no one else does. Often they will even call you.

This Is Important!

These types of leads do not reject you when you call them. And because these people have signed up for your Traffic Portal service, they do not get bombed by being sold into leads slavery. Many times they will actually call you. In fact many will sign up into your primary business if you have configured your system to promote your primary business.

This is So in summary, Traffic Portals promote your opportunity for you. All you have to do is promote your Traffic Portals. OK?

Extortion Marketing


Extortion Marketing may sound rather severe, however, it is only intended to address one simple fact, a seemingly unfair advantage regarding Internet marketing. To achieve this status, one has to first understand the very nature of the complexities of the Internet, what works, what doesn't work and most importantly, to conduct your actions with integrity, (Don't Spam, ever!).

To achieve a fairly large sphere of influence on the Internet, it takes time, lots of time. Primarily getting your websites up and running with valuable automated services that work, are free or very inexpensive and then getting them listed in Yahoo (most important) as well as all the other search engines is the first step. It helps if you have been at this since the beginning of the Internet and that you have many hundreds of web domains to build all of these unique services on. Furthermore, it is also important that having thousands of sites on hundreds of domains also be unique and regularly submitted to all of the search engines.

This is the first step. It is also important to have many FFA systems that can be submitted to regularly from the massive FFA submission services found on the Internet. The same goes for Classified ad sites. But, even more important, these systems must verify all submissions before the benefit of capturing the email addresses for future marketing can be achieved legitimately. An added feature to this market (FFAs and Classifieds) is making them self replicate, and give them away for free. This makes your sites appear on other web sites and builds your awareness factor.

It continues: You must have many different newsletter sites. These build loyal subscribers. An added plus to this is to make many gateway pages to these types of sites and list these in the search engines.

Another highly viral product is the self replicating PDF ebook. Write thousands of these types of ebooks, put your URL in them and give them away on hundreds of web sites.

This is just a thumbnail of the magnitude of work and research that Veretekk has been doing for over 12 years now on the Internet. This is why many refer to Veretekk as the leader in extortion marketing, not because we are conducting ourselves badly, but, because everywhere you go, you will find Veretekk at work, building awareness, leads and databases, from the thousands of services, Veretekk has invented, for the very purpose to become highly relevant on the Internet.

Veretekk has prepared itself for this inevitable onslaught with massive servers to run the hundreds of leads sites.

This massive collection of free tools, services, and systems, are primarily designed to generate leads for our subscribers. Even so, many visitors use them anyway because, well, they are free and of great value. Nowhere else on the Internet will you find a collection to this magnitude.

Oh yes, other sites claim they have this service or they have a cool flash presentation, or they have a small part of the equation, but, in the final analyses, they will eventually reveal to be little more than a single engine generator, dwarfed by the Herculean collection, found on this system, built by Veretekk and only available to our subscribers.

You have to ask yourself, when you need power, do you want to plug into a Honda, or do you want the full throttle power of Hoover Dam. Well? Kind of rhetorical huh? Veretekk's basic marketing philosophy is philanthropic.

We practice an impractical way to achieve success. We believe that good work creates for itself a greater reward. We believe, and it has proven itself over and over, that our success is based totally on yours! We put your self-interests ahead of our own. We are, basically, here to help you succeed! "Buy creating goals that are bigger than our own success, we are also serving ourselves in the very best sense".

The living world is pervaded by two equal and seemingly opposite principles altruism and self-seeking. Most people, in a simplistic way, will label the first as 'noble' but 'impractical' and the second as 'evil' or 'animalistic.' To which I answer - non-sense. In fact, the two ethical imperatives are linked, up and down the great chain of being, from the survival activities of the simplest multi-cellular organisms, up to the most elevated of human endeavors." You can include the Internet as well! Scientist who are suggesting that life could only have evolved through symbiotic cooperation, has challenged the Darwinian model of evolution recently. The 'fittest' creatures to survive have turned out to be the most cooperative, too. Even single single-cell bacterial can now be seen to 'make deals' of a sort, with their competitors, in order to grow and flourish."

This Altruism, as it were, permeates the very essence of what marketing on the Internet is all about. This is what Veretekk is all about. Every level, from the simplest, to the most sophisticated, has been designed to put our potential client, and/or prospect (you), at the apex of our focus. Our tools are exceptional tools, available to you for free, for the exchange of letting us help you achieve your goals faster and more effectively. Our system has been designed to simplify your quest to achieve success, and ultimately help you clarify what exactly you are truly after. We think it is freedom! With freedom, you can then turn around and help us, help others, and in doing so, we all build a better world. This is the purest essence of altruism at work.

Apply the 80/20 Rule to Everything By Brian Tracy

The 80/20 Rule is one of the most helpful of all concepts of time and life management. It is also called the Pareto Principle after its founder, the Italian economist Vilfredo Pareto, who first wrote about it in 1895. Pareto noticed that people in his society seemed to divide naturally into what he called the "vital few,” the top 20% in terms of money and influence, and the “trivial many,” the bottom 80%.

The Great Discovery

He later discovered that virtually all economic activity was subject to this Pareto Principle as well.

For example, this rule says that 20% of your activities will account for 80% of your results. 20% of your customers will account for 80% of your sales. 20% of your products or services will account for 80% of your profits. 20% of your tasks will account for 80% of the value of what you do, and so on.

This means that if you have a list of ten items to do, two of those items will turn out to be worth as much or more than the other eight items put together.

The Greatest Payoff

Here is an interesting discovery. Each of these tasks may take the same amount of time to accomplish. But one or two of those tasks will contribute five or ten times the value as any of the others.

Often, one item on a list of ten things that you have to do can be worth more than all the other nine items put together. This task is invariably the one that you should do first.

The Most Valuable Tasks

The most valuable tasks you can do each day are often the hardest and most complex. But the payoff and rewards for completing these tasks efficiently can be tremendous. For this reason, you must adamantly refuse to work on tasks in the bottom 80% while you still have tasks in the top 20% left to be done.

Before you begin work, always ask yourself, “Is this task in the top 20% of my activities or in the bottom 80%?”

Getting Started

The hardest part of any important task is getting started on it in the first place. Once you actually begin work on a valuable task, you seem to be naturally motivated to continue. There is a part of your mind that loves to be busy working on significant tasks that can really make a difference. Your job is to feed this part of your mind continually.

Managing Your Life

Time management is really life management, personal management. It is really taking control over the sequence of events. Time management is control over what you do next. And you are always free to choose the task that you will do next. Your ability to choose between the important and the unimportant is the key determinant of your success in life and work.

Effective, productive people discipline themselves to start on the most important task that is before them. They force themselves to eat that frog, whatever it is. As a result, they accomplish vastly more than the average person and are much happier as a result. This should be your way of working as well.

Action Exercises

Make a list of all the key goals, activities, projects and responsibilities in your life today. Which of them are, or could be, in the top 10% or 20% of tasks that represent, or could represent, 80% or 90% of your results?

Resolve today that you are going to spend more and more of your time working in those few areas that can really make a difference in your life and career, and less and less time on lower value activities.
