NWD to offer Domain Brokerage

In the New Year, Nexus Web Development is hoping to set sights on a new addition to our portfolio. While we will still be providing Web Development Consultations, Graphic & Web Design, and continuing to expand into Affiliate Promotions and other areas, Nexus Web Development will now also be adding Domain Brokering to our list of services.

Much like the real world Real Estate market, an online presence can be hurt or helped simply by one factor… Location!

A domain name represents a virtual parcel of land, ready for development and just waiting for you to grow your business on it. However, like any brick and mortar store, your online business needs to have a great location as well.

For example, if you’re looking to provide a web presence for your Custom Handmade Jewelry business so that you can feature your designs and provide an added means for people to contact you to commission work, you would never want to have your domain name be something like JacksPizzeria.com!

Perhaps that’s too obvious, but it proves the point well. You would never take a small custom jewelry business and place it in a pizzeria, neither should never put your website on a domain which doesn’t fit your business.

It’s all about LOCATION.

While some people have time to find the perfect website for their needs, others do not. This is where Nexus Web Development’s domain brokerage can help.

NWD continually checks for new and expiring domain names on the market for clients, when we find them, we secure them so that our clients don’t miss out. We can even contact current owners on a clients behalf and help secure a domain before it’s put on the open market if necessary.

In addition to custom searches to help meet our clients current needs, NWD also maintains a selection of both targeted and broad appeal domain names to help quickly fill the needs of current and new customers. It’s entirely possible that we have a domain name in our portfolio currently which will suit your needs perfectly which means you’re able to build your web presence that much faster!

Whatever your domain name needs are, be sure to let Nexus Web Development help you secure the best possible location, at the best possible price, in the virtual Real Estate market.

Free Affiliate Link Cloaker – How To Maximize Its Potential

Today I’m going to illustrate to you how you can use LeadsLeap’s free affiliate link cloaker to do some amazing stunt! If you have not been using it, it’s time to start thinking about it.

1) Be a more professional Clickbank affiliate

A Clickbank affiliate link looks something like this:

http://yourid.productid.hop.clickbank.net

When people click on the link, they will go to the product website that looks like this:

http://ProductSite.com/?hop=yourid

The “hop=yourid” is an eyesore, isn’t it?

With our free affiliate link cloaker, you can send traffic to http://ProductSite.com and still get your commission.

Technically, here’s how to do it:

1) For “Original URL”, you insert http://yourid.productid.hop.clickbank.net.
2) For “Destination URL”, you insert http://ProductSite.com.
3) For “Show Destination URL In Browser”, you choose Yes.

What will happen is the link cloaking system will direct traffic to the Destination URL (http://ProductSite.com) directly while loading the Original URL (http://yourid.productid.hop.clickbank.net) in the background and get your affiliate ID cookied.

Your visitor will see http://ProductSite.com in their browser. But when they make a purchase, you’ll get the commission. How is that stunt?

2) Earn affiliate commission without people clicking your affiliate link!

You may have written a review about a product but when the reader is ready to purchase the product, he may Google for the product and go direct to the salespage without clicking on your link.

Using the same feature above, you can send traffic to your review page and earn commission even if the visitors don’t click on your affiliate link!

Here’s how to do it:

1) For “Original URL”, you insert http://yourid.productid.hop.clickbank.net.
2) For “Destination URL”, you insert http://YourReviewPage.com.
3) For “Show Destination URL In Browser”, you choose Yes.

Similar to the first case, the link cloaker will direct traffic to your review page while loading your affiliate link in the background and get your affiliate ID cookied.

So even if a visitor skip your affiliate link and go directly to the product page, you will still earn the commission!

3) Use other people’s website as your marketing tool

Often when you are blogging, social networking or posting in a forum, you may share a web resource with other people.

How about turning any web resource into your marketing tool?

For example, you may be replying to a forum thread about how to promote ebook and in your reply, you can write something like:

“I found a good blog on how to promote ebook. You can read it here.”

When people click on the link, they will come to a blog that talk about ebook promotion. You are providing a true value to the forum readers. At the same time, you have included an ad bar to the page and can direct the traffic to your product or affiliated product.

Click on the “read it here” link above to see what I mean.

In this example, I’ve used a post from LeadsLeap blog . But you can use any website as the ’seed’ and put your ad to the page. For example, you can share a Youtube video and then put an ad bar to the page.

This is done through the AdFrame Settings in our free link cloaker (see the screenshot below). There are a couple of options in the settings. You can explore and play with the parameters on your own.

I hope that these 3 illustrations can inspire you to think of other ways to use the free affiliate link cloaker. If you’ve other ways to use this tool, feel free to share with us using the comment form below.
