Click2Sell.EU affiliate network is proud to announce that finally they have just tested Moneybookers payment processor system integration with Click2Sell. On March 27 Moneybookers became available for all Click2Sell.EU members so now all merchants can use this payment processor to accept payments for their products via Click2Sell.EU and send affiliate commission payments for all affiliates.

At first let me present you what Moneybookers is and how this payment processor could benefit you. Generally speaking Moneybookers is just like Paypal. It is a widely respected payment processor. Having Moneybookers account allows you to send money to someone, to receive money from someone, go shopping, setup some kind of buy-now buttons on your website and thus accept payments for your products/services.

There is one thing about Moneybookers that should be interesting to some people. Moneybookers is less restrictive than PayPal regarding countries. Moneybookers cover more countries where you can send or receive payments. So if you weren’t able to get PayPal account, you should definitely check out Moneybookers and it is very likely that you will be accepted there.

What Moneybookers will be doing in Click2Sell.EU? Until this moment merchants were able to receive payments from their sales directly in to PayPal, Authorize.net, Worldpay or Google Checkout accounts. From now they will be able to receive payments to their Moneybookers accounts too. Moneybookers claim that they have 4.3 million account holders. We can safely assume that quite a big part of them are buyers who prefer to pay via Moneybookers. So there's more potential buyers of your products.

However, I guess that the more important aspect is that merchants get another option to pay their affiliates. They won’t be restrainted to PayPal. This means that merchants can expect more affiliates as Moneybookers cover more countries than Paypal. Many good affiliates cannot promote products online just because they can’t have Paypal account. Anyway, now there is no restrictions…
Although a lot of people have only PayPal account, it is very easy to get a Moneybookers account, so within minutes merchants could be able to pay affiliates who have Moneybookers accounts only. If you have only Moneybookers account and you’re not able to get PayPal, you shouldn’t worry about the fact that there are a lot of merchants in Click2Sell who pay via PayPal only. I’m sure that if you would make some affiliated sales for "PayPal only" merchant, he/she will get MB account just for paying you.

At the end let me remind you that now Click2Sell affiliate network supports not only Moneybookers, but also PayPal, Google Checkout, Worldpay and Authorize.net payment processors.
Soon I will announce about another new exciting feature of Click2Sell. Stay tuned!

The trends in internet marketing has been shifting but one method still remains to be the most effective form of online advertising – pay-per-click or PPC marketing. PPC marketing works by sending banners, email campaigns, and now, Google Adwords and Yahoo! Search Marketing to different websites and driving direct traffic to your website. As limited space is allotted for these marketing techniques, using the right keywords and words in order to grab the attention of the right people is a must. As it is, you need to be selective of the keywords and words that you use. Below here are some tips in choosing keywords to use on your PPC campaigns:

1. Bid for keywords which are closely relevant to your website, product, or service.
As tempting as it is to bid for all the keywords relating to your golf accessory business, from PGA tours to Tiger Woods, keep your keywords that are relevant to your business like golf shoes, golf balls, or golf clubs.

2. Build a specific landing page to send traffic to.
A link is not a link unless it sends the traffic to more profitable pages. Create a landing page for each keyword you bid on and offer something useful on that page to make the searcher stay like a mini-course, tutorial, teleseminar, or a free ebook. Just remember that they must be related to your service or product.

3.  Filter your traffic.
You might be pleased about how many people visit your website daily but keep in mind that most of these are just curious clickers. You can choose to opt out of Yahoo and Google’s non-search traffic so you can direct your focus on traffic that is actively searching for what you are offering.

4. Use RSS autoresponder or email in delivering freebies.
This ensures that you stay in contact with prospective customers. Remember that people who click on your link are already interested and intrigued about your business; you just have to reel them into making a purchase.  You cannot do this if you let them go after the first click.

5. Deliver value into their inbox.
In the email you send to potential clients, state that they will be included in your newsletter or blog updates. Make this offer as persuasive as possible by pointing out how these updates or newsletter can benefit them. By developing relationships, you do not only get customers but repeat clients as well.

By streamlining your PPC advertising campaign, you direct your resources on keywords that really work and direct qualified traffic to your website. Focusing on qualified traffic – meaning people who are interested and are ready to buy your product – lets you save more and get more value for the money you invest on the PPC campaign. Another helpful strategy is to join internet marketing and affiliate network like Click2Sell.EU. Networks like Click2Sell.EU allow you to get in touch with a lot of affiliate marketers that can give you more mileage in terms of advertising power that can turn into a lot of sales. Moreover, it provides you with a built in keyword tracking function that allows you to see which keywords used on Google Adwords, Yahoo! Search marketing campaigns triggers the most visitors and the best part that you can see which certain keyword brought you a visitor who bought your product. With such tracking abilities you can easily find out which keywords bring you the best visitors and buyers. By analyzing keyword conversion rate you you can find out how much each visitor costs you. By knowing this information, you are able to see if it is worth raising your pay per click campaign bids and even more targeted pay per click traffic to your website, so you could make even more sales.

One such advantage of operating an e-commerce website is the convenience of reaching a wider global market with a few clicks. As such, it is necessary for online merchants to have a payment system that can support different currencies to make purchasing easier for global clients. Fortunately, two of the most popular and easy-to-use online payment vendors support multicurrency payments so merchants and buyers need not fret despite being separated by the Pacific. You can get your payments and products in no time thanks to PayPal and Moneybookers.

PayPal
PayPal offers four ways of notifying merchants about payments for back-end integration. These are:
 - Reporting
 - Email
 - Payment Data Transfer (PDT)
 - Instant Payment Notification (IPN)

PayPal reports can be anything from history logs to monthly statements of accounts while email notifications are usually sent for three instances: successful, cancelled, and pending payments. PDT and IPN are essentially the same but for some key differences. Although both display payment transaction details for buyers, the time delay can be of significance. Whereas PDT displays these details to buyers when they are redirected to your website after completing their purchases, there some cases when you will not receive notifications like for reversals, refunds, or pending payments. IPN, on the other hand, will notify you instantly about any payment transaction. For best results, it is recommended that you enable both functions for your PayPal account.
Accepting online multicurrency payments for your products generally uses the same steps as when your buyers are locals. Customers go to your website, load products in their shopping carts, and head to check out. They will be directed to a PayPal encrypted page where they will be able to choose their payment option and currency. Upon completion of the payment transaction, they will be redirected to your website. Currently supported currencies include: US, Australian, Hong Kong, Singapore, New Zealand, and Canadian dollars as well as the Japanese Yen, Danish Krone, Swiss Francs, and the Euro, among others.

Moneybookers
As an international electronic wallet, Moneybookers lets your customers maintain their accounts using their local currencies, then convert it for your payments. For a minimal conversion rate, you can enjoy the benefits of having global clients at your reach. Supported currencies include the US, Canadian, Singapore, Taiwan, and New Zealand dollar, Euro, Indian Rupee, Japanese Yen, Swiss Franc, and South Korean Won, among others.
Payments can be made using any of the following options:
 - Credit Cards
 - Debit Cards
Instead of letting international traffic go up in smoke, you can turn them into customers by giving them the option to pay the way they like. You can accept “local” international payments from customers in over 30 countries. Moneybookers also offer online merchants with a full protection against chargeback and fraud with stringent security measures. Not only are your payments safe but also those of your clients.
Aside from the ease of accepting international multicurrency payments from around the globe provided by PayPal and Moneybookers, online merchants can beef up not only their payment solutions but also their security, marketing, and customer service fronts by joining up with an internet marketing and affiliate network like Click2Sell.EU.
A network like Click2Sell, allows you to fully manage your online business by enabling the multicurrency transactions. Click2Sell.EU allows online merchants like you to view transaction details, connect with a lot of affiliates, and provide excellent customer service through extensive payment options. Without these crucial factors, being able to accept different currencies will be of no use since no one will find your website and buy products or services from you.

She is in internet marketing business for 10 years and has made great money in this field during that time. Many people consider her book "The Super Affiliate Handbook" as an affiliate marketing Bible for beginners. And YES! - she liked our system! Rosalind has mentioned a lot of Click2Sell features as great advantages over other systems. At the end of her review she just wrote:

"My hat’s off to the Click2Sell developers."

I’ll tell you again - this inspires me and my team to work hard in bringing you the best service and provide most useful merchant and affiliates tools for earning money online!

By the way, it’s not the first time Click2Sell affiliate programs network gets a positive review by a super-marketer. Few months ago (when Click2Sell had just started its activities), Allan Gardyne also made a review to his subscribers about Click2Sell.EU in a favourably manner. You can read the review here. As you may already know, Allan is in internet marketing business for a long period and is "Earning a good living from affiliate programs since 1998". Just like Rosalind, A. Gardyne is also very well known among affiliate marketers. His website Associate Programs provides a very wide range knowledge of internet marketing, thus is one of the most visited websites about affiliate marketing. In his newsletter and blog Allan wrote very lengthy analysis about Click2Sell system, comparing it to Clickbank and Paydotcom in many areas. At that time Click2Sell had just launched, so he was a bit cautious, but eventually he recognized our ambitions as hopeful:

"It looks worth keeping an eye on."

7 Reasons to Accept Credit Cards Directly on Your Website And Get Paid Instantly to Your Paypal Account

Accepting payments through credit cards online is a huge plus factor for any online merchant. Customers and potential clients, first and foremost, look for convenience and credibility when browsing websites they want to buy products or get services from. To gauge these factors, potential clients and customers look at one of the most basic components any reliable online merchant should have – an efficient and secure payment system.

Online merchants like you can benefit from setting up a PayPal account in order to accept credit card payments directly online. Below are the steps in setting up and accepting credit cards directly to your PayPal account:

1. Sign up with PayPal (www.paypal.com).

Register for a PayPal Business Account to get started. Signing up is easy as PayPal will walk you through the registration process.

2. Verify sign up information details to activate your account.

You will need to verify your information by clicking the link sent to the email address you provided during registration. This is done to ensure the website’s security.

3. Opt for the Website Payments Standard option.

4. Choose your shopping carts and buttons.

PayPal offers custom-designed shopping carts that are free and a variety of HTML buttons you can put on your website to facilitate the payment process. You can choose from a variety of buttons for different functions like “Buy Now,” “Add to Cart,” “Subscribe,” “Donate,” and “Buy Gift Certificate.”

5. Start accepting payments online.

PayPal accounts work this way: Customers browse your site and look for products they want to purchase. When they have added all the products they want in their shopping carts, they will proceed to the checkout counter where they will be directed to a secure and encrypted PayPal page designed to match the look and feel of your own website. The credit card payment transactions as well as those for PayPal are done here. After the transaction, the customer is directed back to your website.

6. BUT! There are much more convenient ways to accept direct credit card payments to your Paypal account from your customers.

This is not just a simple buy now button to place on your website.

Did you know that you can easily accept credit card payments from your customers without redirecting them to Paypal pay pages that require the customer to signup for Paypal account?
