Successfully (and Profitably) Using Text Links
There are several ways to use text links... some of which work much better than others. On this webpage we will explore some proven effective ways to incorporate text links into your site and one way in particular that will grow your referral checks up to 400% larger (almost overnight).
Although this page is rather long, please take the time to read it all. The few minutes you spend now will pay off in the extra referral fees you'll receive every month by setting everything up right the first time. In fact, you may want to bookmark and print out this page for reference while modifying your site (and for future use) for linking to the MLM Success Tips Website.
But First, Some Basics
You can use text links and/or banner links. Many sites will choose to use BOTH types of links for their website. Don't hesitate to link to MLM Success Tips from multiple areas in your website. Remember, the more people that see the link... the more click-throughs... the more people that order... the more referral fees you'll get every month.
The special URL you need to use for all links (text or banners) to the MLM Success Tips website (it puts the hidden code in the site to track how many visitors have linked from your site and how many of those have ordered) is:
http://www.mlmsuccesstips.com/t.cgi/XXXXXX/tipsltr.shtml
(Be sure you put your six digit associate number where the XXXXXX is in the URL above as this address is specific to your site.)
A Hidden Windfall Profit for You?
Before we cover text links, here's a marketing technique that some of the most savvy Internet marketing minds are using right now with great success.
Do you have an email list of previous business related customers, newsletter list, downline list, website visitors log, or website/business owners leads? It can be any email list of people who know you and would find the tips and tricks at MLMSuccessTips.com valuable.
If you have such a list, email me and I will show you how to make thousands (assuming it's a sizable list) by promoting our website to it.
We can help you email them directly or we can do the promotion to the list for you. So, if you have such an email list, let me know and we can talk further about this. If your list is large enough, this is a way to earn a couple thousand bucks for only about an hour's work.
Let's Talk Text Links
We recommend that you link to us on your main page because of the exposure.
You can have one of our banners on your site as the link to MLMSuccessTips.com AND/OR you can just have a text link to us directly from your main page, your "other links" page, or wherever you deem appropriate at your site. Here's 4 proven effective ways to use text links profitably:
1. The "Main Menu" Approach:
If your site has a "main menu" format on your home page; you could have us listed in your main menu (if applicable). You might say something like "MLM Success Tips - How to make people stand in line and beg to join your network!" We recommend the main page because it has the highest exposure to your visitors and, of course, the more people that link to the MLM Success Tips Website, the more people that buy, and the more money you make.
Here's an example of what this main menu approach might look like. Maybe you have some graphics with your main menu options, and let's say those options look like this:
- Resources for your website
- Evaluation of MLM Companies
- Links to other related business sites
- Expert Tips and Tricks to Sponsor with Posture
As you can see the link to us would be option number 4.
For an example of this technique, check out this website that has it on the "menu bar" of each page.
2. The "Suggested Reading" Approach:
If you have an article or information on your site about any aspect of MLM, you can list us as "suggested reading" at the end of it. Here's an example. Say you have an article discussing phone sponsoring techniques. You might include a "suggested reading" at the end of the article, including the link to MLMSuccessTips.com.
3. The "K.I.S." (keep it simple) Approach:
Another technique that works well is just posting text links in different locations in your site where it is appropriate. You just want to make sure you give a small description of what they are linking to. There are many text links you can use. Just as with the banners, use the ones you think your visitors will respond to best. Here's a few to choose from:
- Little known MLM sponsoring secrets that cause hoards of prospects to beg (even plead) to join your network!
- MLM secrets that will make people stand line and beg to join your network.

...and so on.
As a side note, the HTML code for these links would be:
<a href="http://www.mlmsuccesstips.com/t.cgi/XXXXXX/tipsltr.shtml"> TEXT YOU CHOOSE TO USE GOES HERE</a><P>
Don't forget to replace the "XXXXXX" above with your 6 digit Associate number.
If you only want to hyperlink a portion of the text, while the rest is the description, here's an example of the HTML code you would use:
<a href="http://www.mlmsuccesstips.com/t.cgi/XXXXXX/tipsltr.shtml">MLM Success Tips: </a>TEXT YOU CHOOSE TO DESCRIBE THE SITE GOES HERE<P>
That would give you the words "MLM Success Tips:" as the hyperlink and the other words would be just regular text describing the site.
4. Ezine Ad Approach:
A great, and simple, technique that really works if you have an email newsletter or ezine is placing an ad in it about the website. Use the ideas given above as headlines and for the ad. Or, you could pay to place an ad in other MLM related ezines. As an example, here is one that has pulled very good results.
"MLM Sponsoring Secrets:

5. The "Quadruple Your Referral Fees" Approach:
We saved the best and most effective technique for last. In order to utilize this type of text link to its fullest potential it is important to understand the psychology behind it.
The biggest hurdle any business faces in creating sales is not finding the prospects but rather selling the prospects they do find. The key to converting a prospect into a satisfied customer rests in breaking down the prospect's walls of skepticism so they trust you enough to believe that your offer (your product or service) is real and is something they want. The first sale to a new customer is the hardest and most expensive part of doing business.
But the good news is that once a customer purchases the first time, they are 28% to 33% more likely to buy something else from you (this means that 28 out of 100 past customers will buy - compare that to the 1 in 100 people it usually takes a business to convert a first time customer). That's the power of customer goodwill! This goodwill is often the most overlooked and underutilized marketing assets a business owns.
So, here's how this relates to you, your website and maximizing the profits you make with our Associate Referral Program. A powerful asset that you may never thought of as an asset before is the visitor goodwill you have with the people who come to your website. It doesn't matter if you sell anything at your website or not... it's still a rapport, trust and relationship building tool. The mere fact that someone comes to your site and spends time to explore it, means that you have established a higher level of credibility with them than someone approaching them cold.
Because of this, a personal recommendation about the value of MLMSuccessTips.com on your site will pull up to 400% better than just a link (which means more referral fees paid to you for the same effort).
To shoot your referral fees straight through the roof (almost overnight) all you have to do is give more exposure to the MLMSuccessTips.com link WITH a personal recommendation about the site. In other words, in every instance where it is appropriate in your site, set up a link AND recommendation to the MLM Success Tips Website.
For example, you could have something right in your main index page that says:
"If you are looking for solid information on sponsoring and prospecting successfully, we highly recommend the MLM Success Tips Website at MLMSuccessTips.com. This site is jam-packed with some of the most jealously guarded sponsoring secrets that will teach you how to make your prospects stand in line and beg you to sponsor them. It is a great FREE resource."
In the example above, you would want to have the MLM Success Tips title and the URL as a hyperlink to the special URL that was assigned to you to track the referral fees.
Here's a shorter recommendation you could use depending on the location and how it fits into the page:
"For MLM tips and secrets to exponentially explode your network, check out http://www.mlmsuccesstips.com/t.cgi/XXXXXX/tipsltr.shtml I recommend the site highly. Lots of great tips and tricks."
(By now I can stop reminding you to put your six digit associate number where the XXXXXX is in the URL above, right?)
The personal site recommendation alone will triple your sales - and believe it or not - the LONGER the recommendation is the better it will pull. You could even have different recommendations on the appropriate pages.
One of our very successful associates set up a special page at his site and uses this longer personal recommendation:
