Let me tell you a true story...
More than 14 years ago, when I was still a kid, my family and I visited my grandparents in Obarseni... It's a small village in Romania, you wouldn't know it... :)
My grandma had a roost with about 20 chickens in there. And there was this thing that caught my attention...
When the night would fall, my grandfather would go there and set up several small animal traps around the roost.
I was very curious, so I asked my grandfather: "Grandpa, what are those things for?" and my grandpa replied: "They are there to catch foxes my dear. When the night falls, they come for our chicken."
"And what do you do when you catch them grandpa? Do you release them the next morning?"
For as long as I live, I will never forget what my grandfather replied:
"Heck no, son! First I skin them, then I feed
them to the dogs and then I sell their fur!"
And he went on:
"You won't believe how much money I have made this way. Fox furs are very expensive. Plus, I save a bunch on dog food!"
Only decades later did I understand how much business sense my grandpa's words made.
You see, your website is no different than that roost. It has many "chicken". Digital products, sales-letters under construction, experimental software, unpublished articles and so on...
And the foxes? The foxes are present as well. People who try to gain access to these pages and files for fr!ee, without paying you for the blood sweat you've put in.
Unfortunately, most online business owners will never
take advantage of this fact in order to profit like crazy!
They either stand still and wait for the foxes to eat their chicken time and time again, or, at the very most, they just try to protect the chicken without making any profit from the foxes themselves.
Too bad!
"That's interesting Bogdan, but how can I do this? How can I actually make money from online thieves?"
Beats me! Ok, ok I'm kidding.
Actually, it's *very* easy once you know how.
You don't believe me? Here's one of the simplest techniques that almost nobody is using!
When thieves try to 'attack' your site, several "error messages" are created by the web server software.
Let's say for example that you have a digital product named: "Secrets Of Chess". Do you know what many people will try to do?
They will try to type in the address bar:
http://www.yoursite.com/download
or maybe
http://www.nameofyoursite.com/sos.pdf
(sos="Secrets Of Chess")
...and 100+ different combinations. Every time the address they type does not lead to a real file, a "404 Error" message is produced. I'm sure you have seen one. I'm talking about those ugly "Page Not Found" pages.
So, what can you do? Simple! You configure your site so that each time an "Error 404" is generated, the fox, errr... sory, I mean "the visitor" will see a page of YOUR choice.
This can be done ultra easily since most hosts have an online panel that does that in a couple of minutes. But even if such a panel does not exist, you can email your webmaster and he can show you how to do this easily.
Or just do a search on google.com for "create custom 404 pages" or "how to create 404 pages".
Now, the question is what to put there...
My suggestion?
NOT the same page that the visitor has just seen. If s/he decides that the only way s/he would have access to the product is for free, then maybe it's time to take "another route".
What is that route you ask? Simply, put a page for an *affiliate* product there. That way s/he will see a completely different offer and you stand a good chance of making some commissions.
Of course, there are many ways that you can easily make *100 times* the profit from online pickpockets. As I said: It's *easy* once you know how...
I will only say this much: You are ignoring a goldmine in your site if you are not incorporating similar techniques...
I guess my grandfather never knew how much money I would end up making because of that little chat we had so long ago.
