Lead generation advice - UK market
-
Hi
I am planning on setting up a lead generation website in a sector I know well and have a domain registered although its only a few weeks old.
I am looking for some insight and advice please to see it its worth doing. For example there are lots of payday loan (not my niche btw) lead gen sites in the UK at the moment but what do all of these sites do with all the leads they generate - who buys them and for what cost per lead?
I have done affiliate marketing in the past, but how does the lead gen process work.
Do you sign up with a lead gen affiliate style network that buys the leads generated off your website.
Or do you have to sell these leads on yourself? If so where do you sell them. I plan tobe operating in the UK

What is the market you are in, I am in car finance so I may be able to point you in the right direction

Hi Sean
That's great thanks, it's a shame they didn't have any sort of affiliate lead gen style platforms out there.

Hi
I would sell them directly to the end user, depending on what your niche is would depend on who you sell them to.
If to use your example you are doing lead gen for Payday loans I would contact all the loan companies and say something like
I have a site that is generating *** leads a month for loans from sub prime lenders such as yourselves I wish to supply you with these leads how much do you pay per lead?
They will have someone in their office who deals with this sort of thing (depending on how prevalent lead gen is in the industry) but the sort of things they will look at are your website and if you are keeping to industry terms of service (finance has lots of rules) and if you are attracting the right sort of lead.
I would offer to send them leads for a month (or a few weeks if you are generating a lot) so they can test the quality, remember it costs them money to follow up leads and if they do not convert they make no money.
I hope this helps
Sean

Site Redesign Leads Dropped
One of my clients recently had his site redesigned. He wanted to change the design completely, I did offer advice on aspects relating to the redesign, I think its fair to say that he didn't follow all of my advice. PPC still running as usual and rankings still OK but the leads have gone down. Most of the leads come via the phone. I have suggested a number of ways to establish what has gone wrong including surveying his existing customers, comparing old and new designs etc...The client isn't keen on these methods. I'm hoping someone has some direct experience and can offer some direction as to how best to proceed? Justin

Need Advice on Home page Conversion Rate Improvement - not much $$s
Anyone out there have some suggestions for how I can improve my home page and increase my lousy conversion rate? I've spent years on the content and SEO optimization of my site and very little time on making a home page that sells stuff. Caveat - I don't have the money to go to one of those fancy companies who do a complete makeover and charge in the tens of thousands. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Tips on marketing actual "Products" rather than "SEO Advice"?
First of all I just want to say that I love SEOMoz, it's by far the best no-BS resource for SEO and online marketing information in general on the entire Internet, and well worth the money. HOWEVER, one beef I am starting to have with it recently is... Most of the content being generated is becoming about "how to market to marketers" or "selling SEO" rather than actual advice or focus selling general products or services. By this I mean that all the new trends towards pumping out content based on research, making fancy infographics etc. etc. are all well and good for those who are trying to market their marketing or SEO talents in general but not THAT applicable to traditional online storefronts. I work for a fairly large company that sells tickets for theme parks/attractions/tours etc. and SEOMoz was a huge help initially for a recent site redesign, but now every time I log on to check for fresh content it's seemingly a repeat similar advice on how to get links or traffic for an SEO business. I don't mean this to come off as a whine because as I said SEOMoz is wonderful, but I've conducted endless site searches for (recent) information on traditional online marketing etc. and the ratio just seems to be...off. Anyone else feeling this way?
