Before you get eager about marketing on the Internet with mini-sites, I think you should be clear about the types of mini-sites that you can build. These mini-sites are different, depending on the objective of the site and also the structure.

In general, I consider mini-site as a website that is easy and simple and structure and very narrow (probably deep) in topic.

1 – Sales Letter Mini-Site

This is normally a simple 1-page website (not including download page, support page, etc). It contains a direct response sales copy convincing the website visitors to buy a product.

I am sure you’ve seen a lot of these. You can go to any websites from the ClickBank Marketplace and 99% of them are Sales Letter Mini Sites.

Whatever you do online, ultimately you want to have your own product. You make more money that way. And when you do, this is the type of website you want to have.

I have to give Anik Singal full credit for this article and share it with you in order to help your efforts online.

Not all of us have the time or know-how to easily build large sites that do well with search engines. Most of us just want to put up a small site and start making money.

Here are the 3 traffic generating techniques I use everyday for traffic to mini-sites.

#1: Forums/Discussion Boards

The basic strategy here is that you need to find related forums and become active in them. Get yourself known, find out what those members talk about and find an affiliate product to fit their demand.

Then, make a nice, simple, yet captive site with a great headline followed by a review of the product. Test it and if it pulls well, you have a winner. If not, choose another product.

#2: Ezine Advertising

I would rate ezine advertising at the second best way to gather traffic to your mini-sites only because this technique can cost some money. Forum promotions have no cost (typically). However, ezine advertising can provide much better results.

“I want somebody to show me how to design minisites and not tell me,” “I am tired of reading bunch of boring books and too many technical jargon.” If this is you then you need to read on because I have a very exciting solution at the end of this post. The Best Thing Is It’s FREE!

Truly, a picture is worth more than a thousand words. This aphorism couldn’t have been more true when it comes to minisite design skill . This is why and how minisite video tutorial is superior to reading books or listening to tapes on mini website design. Be ready to go through a steep and difficult learning curve without learning through minisite videos.

Narrated minisite videos bypass the natural inhibition of the rational mind and penetrate the subconscious mind where procreative powers, inventions, and productivity resides. This is because motion pictures as in minisite videos engage more senses (both audiovisual and tactile senses) and the more physical senses you engage, the more the video images stick to your deeper mind. This helps faster memory, retention, and recall of the materials presented in the minisite videos.

Also remember that pictures (motion pictures in the case of minisite videos) are much more direct, literal and honest language than words–whether written or spoken. Narrated videos have the power of shot-making. We remember 95% of what we say and do.

Another reason why minisite video is a more superior learning tool is proven by research scientists based on our primary connection to the world:

Approximately 65-75% of the population are visual learners. This applies to the majority.

Ten percent of the population are kinesthetic learners, feelers and touchers.

Another 10% of the population are auditory learners. In other words, they learn by ear.

Knowing how best you learn is critical to your minisite design skill acquisition. Going by the above statistics, minisite video learning combine all the three learning gateways. To be exact, minisite video learning increase interactive learning and improves retention and recall by 95% unlike reading or listening to tapes alone.

Majority of us are visual thinkers who must see and practice before the material can stick in our deeper mind where creativity, skill and decisions happen. This is how and why learning with minisite design videos is the best way to acquire web design skills.
