Frequently Asked Questions

 

We’ve gathered some questions and answers. 


 
1.
What is Interactive-Media-Network and How does it work? -

Interactive-Media-Network  is an online network, offering a low cost solution to sell online.

We offer featured listings for products, services, businesses, and real estate with full descriptions, reviews, press releases and either picture or html banners.  This is a portal for users to have a larger web presence with less cost through cooperative marketing.

  • Interactive-Media-Network is a network designed to get more traffic to businesses and  real estate listings from across the internet by allowing small to large businesses to display their listing on Interactive-Media-Network which has a network of high traffic websites.  
  • You have heard of SEO (search engine optimization), but the reality is, no one can guarantee that you will be the first on a Google search result page for any specific keyword or phrase. Google uses automated programs called "bots" to add new websites to their system and determines search results by best word match up as well as by link popularity.  Interactive-Media-Network uses this to by taking the descriptive words you add to our system and displays them easily for "bots" to find.  Interactive-Media-Network also takes the same words you use to describe your business, product, service or real estate and inserts them in articles across our network of high traffic websites across the internet. This builds up popularity. As these "bots" find us we get more traffic to you.
  • There are a few ways that businesses can get placed on search engines.
    1. You can go to each search engine and manually add your business listing into the search engine directories, or use aftermarket software to do this for you.  Interactive-Media-Network is within 100 of the most popular search engines on the internet, including Google, Yahoo, MSN, and Ask.
    2. Many businesses pay search engines to display their advertisements and listings to try to get them closer to the top. The biggest issue for this is that most search engines charge you per person, which can get very expensive for few actual sales. Costs can exceed the price of the sale.   
    3. There are several factors that can improve your search results naturally.
      • If your website is very popular with many people using it
      • If your site is updated frequently with new information
      • The length of time your website has been online
      • How many other sites link to yours
      • Having a clean and easy to read design allowing automated programs to easily index your site

       

  • What are keywords and how do they work?
    Keywords are the key to you successfully marketing your online business. What you want to do is find keyword phrases that best describe your business, product, service, or real estate.  
  • Are there any tools to help me when I advertise with Interactive-Media-Network?
    Within

Question: Other than the membership fee, how much money will I need to get started?

We do both FREE and paid strategies at Interactive-Media-Network , so you DO NOT need any additional money in order to take full advantage of the program and start earning money online. Many members start with ZERO investment using our free techniques, and then invest their earnings into using more advanced strategies that require some investment to get more traffic.

 Question: How do I join as a new business of Interactive-Media-Network?

After you become an Platinum VIPMember by signing up here: http://interactive-media-network.com/members/benefits.html  you will be given a login with your user name and password for both the Gold VIPMember and Platinum VIPMember sites.  Once you have sent us the questionnaires filled out for the Platinum VIPMembership, within 14 days all of the work is completed and online. A single business can have as many separate marketing campaigns as they may want apart from that which is included in the monthly dues. Interactive-Media-Network accepts all major credit cards.

Question: How exactly do I make money?

There are thousands of companies that are willing to pay you a performance based commission if you can drive sales to their websites promoting their products and services. These are called affiliate programs, and your job as an affiliate marketer is to align online consumers with the products and services that they are looking for. This provides a great opportunity because there are billions of dollars being spent online each year, a large percentage of that going to affiliates. Whether you work a few hours a day, or a few hours a week, you can follow our Step-by-Step Guide.  Internet marketing is something you can spend as much, or as little time working on and anyone can do it.

At Interactive-Media-Network we teach you everything you need to know about not only promoting these companies with great success, but if you have your own products or services we are your marketing specialists. 

Question: Will I still benefit from a membership if my business already has an affiliate program? 

Yes. There are always ways in which you can expand your business, whether it is targeting new audiences, recruiting new affiliates or forming relationships with other like-minded individuals. Interactive-Media-Network is a network to get more traffic and sales regardless if you already have your own affiliate program or whatever your industry.

Question: How much support will I receive during the implementation process?

The Interactive-Media-Network implementation process starts within 24 hours and dedicated Project Launch Managers and Implementation Specialists work with you every step of the way. We handle the implementation work, and ask our clients to allocate time to learn the system. We work on everything from SEO when implementing user-generated content, to graphic design to the most technical details of your project. 

 

Question: Do I own my content?

You are licensed to use the marketing materials that we create for you during the time period that you have paid.

Question: How is my online advertising tracked?

The web-based Google Analytics provides Executive Reporting; Rejected Reviews Reports; Reports by Item, Brand and Category; the popular All Reviews Report; Net Promoter Report; Questions Asked and Answered, and more. All reporting can be customized by several factors and exported to Excel for flexible manipulation and offline analysis. 

Our mission is to deliver traffic solutions that drive measurable sales results. We take analytics and ROI seriously.

Question: What is the SEO benefit of other customer content on my site, and how do I avoid duplicate content issues?

Interactive-Media-Network employs a unique and proven “segmented content strategy” for SEO  that maximizes the search traffic you can drive from both the user-generated content and from your product pages. In fact, in a recent study, non of our client saw more than a 2% overlap between the search terms used and those used on their product content. Also, unlike other traffic solutions that inject review content into the client’s main site – jeopardizing the SEO of the main site itself –  Interactive-Media-Network reviews are hosted on multiple sub-domains, so our clients can often get the top three or four links on a single search results page.

Question: How much exposure will I receive on the top shopping engines?

We help our clients make the most of the user-generated content by syndicating their content to a  diverse syndication network consisting of more than 400 partners, and we are constantly adding more.  Our business development team and data experts facilitate and maximize exposure on these networks. On your own, you may choose to syndicate your content to as many portals and networks that will accept it; however, you will likely incur fees and you will need to establish connections yourself.

Question:  Will SEO results be diluted if I syndicate my content?

No.  These back-links drive better search engine results and create traffic.

Question: Tell me about research and development, the product roadmap, and the release of new features.

With any provider, you want to know that they are continuing to learn, listen to their customers, and expand on their offerings to exceed customer expectations.

Our business plan is focused entirely on the needs of clients. We focus all research, development and service directly toward our clients. 

New product enhancements are delivered every 4 weeks. The benefit of working with Interactive-Media-Network  is that your user-generated content platform will always be improved by the thought leadership within our company and fueled by ideas from hundreds of clients from multiple industries. We get feedback from clients on new ideas. These ideas are consistently incorporated into our product for your benefit.
