Interpretation of your Internet marketing and online business test results

< 10 : Chump city

Oh dear. It seems you're barking up the wrong tree here. Either you are in the wrong industry, or you really need to jack up your ideas.

If you didn't understand many of the questions, don't panic. There's a lot of jargon and lingo in this biz, but it's really not all that hard. If you are dead set on succeeding online then one of the best ways to do it is by watching and learning from the pros.

  • First thing is first, Create a twitter acount and start following me for regular online business and marketing related posts, content, courses and so on. Find other people and follow them.
  • Join social networks, in particular LinkedIn and learn about your particular niche and the people who work in it.
  • Consider purchasing my Internet marketing & SEO package. Not only will it bring in traffic and all sorts of other benefits for your site, but it will teach you how to go on and do the same thing for yourself.
  • Talking of which, you need to grab copies of my two crash courses on how to make good money online and harness social media to help build revenue. They're super cheap and easy to understand, and will help to gurufy you in no time flat.

11 - 18 : Chump suburbs

Hmmm. This is not great, but it shows promise.

Go back through the questions and see where you received 0 or 1 and look at the answers that scored higher. You might find that you did well in some areas, but poorly in others. Focus on improving the aspects in which you fared poorly.

You will also benefit from watching and learning from industry professionals. Find and follow social marketers, other marketers and other people of relevance to your particular niche. Follow people on twitter and via their blog feeds. Start by following me on Twitter.

19 - 23 : Guru city limits

Woo hoo! This is more like it. Chances are you've already enjoyed no small amount of success (depending on how long you've been at it).

I suspect you're already fairly well integrated with social networks and are familiar with how to build trust and relationships amongst people in your particular niche. Nevertheless, you should still start following me on Twitter for useful marketing and online commerce content.

While you have a good handle on how to build traffic and to analyze it to help direct your efforts as you go, there is probably still room for some improvement in the more advanced aspects of SEO, conversion analysis and more.

You're also likely to be an industry leader and knowledgeable. Try some real advanced marketing by creating socially enhanced, interesting and insightful predictions about the future of your niche. Use these predictions as link bait and to actually enhance your reputation by putting your money where your mouth is.

Consider having your site or blog analyzed professionally by me. This will provide you with actionable feedback and advanced insights into how you can improve:

24+ : Teach us, oh wise one

It seems you know everything already. Why'd you bother to take the test? Unless, you're not entirely happy with the performance of your site. Perhaps you aren't attracting enough traffic, or not converting the traffic you do get as well as you want?

Why not connect with me on twitter or find me on LinkedIn. I'd be interested to learn about your success and hear about any problems you've been having.
