Hi Ali,

Different gateways have been designed considering " what are people searching for " on internet for earning second income and what people get attracted with. Obviously everyone is looking for income but many individuals are seeking some supporting images/ proofs etc

Real/ real 2 gateway is useful when ONLINE INCOME SEARCHERS get impressed by visual image of CASH . On this gateway the first one can see is $ 10 notes/ bills. It wants to suggest that Real income can be earned by working ONLINE by showing a Laptop. There is more information like latest enrollments, Why to join SFI, Tripleclicks etc. Focus is on REAL INTERNET INCOME. According to me this gateway can be very useful for people who want to earn from HOME , who have Internet access at home , or students who normally want to earn more cash as their pocket money.

So use Real gateway in blogs / website related to people searching for ONLINE JOBS/ HOME INCOME or on BLOGS related to students and home makers.

The other gateway is entrepreneurs( First) gateway. Note that there is no computer shown. It focuses on ENTREPRENEURSHIP. It also gives info about what others are saying, and mostly this extra information is common in real and First gateway. Here prospective entrepreneur can see many real people who have become entrepreneurs. Some individuals need moral support to start something new. And for them they get to see here real faces.

So use this gateway on blogs / websites related to entrepreneurship

Other gateway is your invitation gateway- Use it in social networking sites where people know you by your name.

Use Price benders gateway to attract PRM.

Other gateways I am not covering here . But these 4 gateways have something significant related to growing your income. So these are the best gateways you can use at different places.

From my own experience, all SFI Gateways if used as prescribed are very effective depending on where and how you are promoting your business. It is therefore very difficult to say categorically which is best. However, taking a very close look particularly as an affiliate for nearly two years now, the “first” Gateway on this link, http://www.sfi4.com/xxxxxxxx/first appears to have a lot going for it for the following reasons.

1. It is highly Search Engine friendly and turns up easily in search results.
2. A click on it opens up a highly effective message right away.
3. Its address bar on your computer invites you to “start a second income with SFI.”
4. The main page tells you that SFI is a company which is “first” with Internet entrepreneurs.
5. It displays to the very second pictures and numbers updates about all new affiliates joining SFI all over the world.
6. Top left corner tells you that in SFI “we aim high, dream big.”
7. The color combination in the page is very attractive and captivating.
8. On same page, you see a brief historical update of SFI as a successful company.
9. The invitation to join FREE is simple, easy to use and irresistible.
10. The page layout is a masterpiece in web page building.
11. Above all, it is result-oriented and it actually yields good results.

These are some of the reasons why I tend to think that the “first” Gateway is best to use while promoting your SFI business.

I hope this answer helps.

I believe that three of the gateways are the best because any meaningful sign ups we get from theae gateways directly increases our VPs and our earnings. These gateways are:
1. Free Gateway (aka" Real" and "Real2"Gateways- www.sfi.com/free) It features listings of new enrollments and earners and a brief info on TripleClicks as well as a built in registration form all in one page.
2. Invitation Gateway - www.sfi.biz
A personalized Gateway with your name and an invitation to viewers to join SFI.
3. ECA Gateway - www.tripleclicks.com/ECA
It refers companies that sell products to your ECA Gateway ans for each approved ECA who lists their first products you earn 100VP and up to 10% CV on all sales they generate at TripleClicks

Hi,..

I know from my own experience that ALL gateways work to attract PSA's and Tripleclicks Members.. SFI has been around for 16 years, developing and testing, Improving and expanding, so I am convinced that the banners and gateways created by them are flawless

The ones that works for me best are the "FIRST" and the "FREE" gateway but i am a strong believer that different places to put advertising needs different gateways..

Post the same ad multiple times with different gateways and weed out the ones that do not work at that particular advertising spot.

Keeping track of what works and what not is easily done trough your Powertools > Hit Tracking menu.

Hope it helps,
Best Regards

Choosing a best gateway depends on the niche segment you are marketing to.

There is no one size fits all gateway and if you really wish to earn money your best links will be to individual products on TripleClicks during you first 6 months or so. The reason being is you need to learn to generate sales to make money and teach your team to make money.

If you and your team do not make money you are not going to have a successful business and your team will leave almost as fast as they join.

You need to snap right to it and get in contact during their first 24 hours as a SFI member and tell them to forget everything they hear elsewhere and focus hard on the training of how to generate sales at TripleClicks. If they can refer even one active Personally Referred Member at TripleClicks in their first month and make even a couple bucks off the sale, the confidence in their ability to make money here will soar and they will be hooked.

Too many preach about referring hundreds of PSA and what is their sob story nearly every day in the forum? I have 300 PSA but only 1 of them is Active, or I have 1,000 PSA and most are doing nothing.

The reason they are doing nothing is because they are being told to refer a bunch of free members then try to talk them into placing a standing order instead of really learning how to generate sales commissions. This is a sales business, not some MLM Pyramid. You don't have to have a standing order so 95% will not get one and will resent you if you try to tell them after they join free that they can't be successful unless they have a Standing Order.

That's bait and switch marketing and it kills your business. It's like the not having that fine print on your coupon that says FREE DRINK with purchase of 20oz Sirloin Platter. People need to know if they join something that is a free place to make money, how to make money free when they get there. What they don't need is to find a new monthly bill in the place of that word FREE.

Well enough of my rant, may your business be successful and your PSA work hard and prosper.

There is no one best gateway. Each gateway has its own merits. I use all of them.

A good feature of the “FREE” Gateway (aka “REAL” and “REAL 2” Gateways) is that it shows the latest enrolments and emphasizes it is FREE to sign up. This in some ways induces prospects to sign-up and do a test-drive. The TripleClicks description provides added impetus for prospects to sign-up.

The “First With Entrepreneurs” Gateway demonstrates photographs of SFI’s latest income earners. This is testimony that there is money to be made at SFI and will boost sign-ups.

The “Invitation” gateway gives a personal invitation with your name on it. This is especially useful if you are sending the link or inviting relatives and friends to join SFI. The testimonials can be a big draw for prospects to join SFI. Another big advantage is the language translation found here.

The Tripleclicks gateway can be a money spinner if you have active PRMs. There is a good mix of products, deal of the day, closeouts etc.

The Pricebenders gateway is one gateway where lucrative commissions can be earned. This gateway together with the above gateways provide for multiple streams of income.

Every SFI affiliate has his/her own unique SFI gateways in promoting SFI/TripleClicks. Certainly each gateway is purposely designed for referring TripleClicks members and sponsoring SFI affiliates. Which one is the best among them for use in your marketing campaign? The best could be measured according to how successful a particular gateway websites performed during your marketing campaign. In order to accomplish this, you’ll need to define your goals: What do you want your SFI gateway website to achieve?

SFI gateway website goals:

- To acquire new sign ups

- To sell TripleClicks products or services online

Establishing these goals will help you determine the best SFI gateway to use, but other factors may still need to be considered:

- Frequency and costs of your advertising campaign
Whether you make use of free or paid advertising, it will cost you time and money. The key is, you have set up an effective marketing strategy.

- Time and place
Statistics shows that you’ll have higher success rate when you run your ad on certain days of the week like Tuesdays. During this day people will more likely find your ad.

- The marketing method used
The Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced methods are purposely designed to help affiliates in their marketing efforts. You’re missing out a lot by not implementing them.

The best SFI gateway to use is not always the same as you analyze your statistics such as:

- Highest number of hits.

- Highest number of new sign ups.

- Highest Click-through-rate conversion.

It will depend on the factors mentioned above.

I recommend the following:

"FREE" Gateway (aka our "REAL" and "REAL2" Gateways):
http://www.sfi4.com/XXXXXXXX/FREE

To me this is the best of all SFI Gateways. The reason why I say this is because although I promote all the SFI Gateways, this is the one where I get the most hits and most conversions.

I do remember it as being the one that attracted me to SFI.

I suspect that the reason for this is because it is fairly simple in layout, I love the color, it contains a brief listing of the latest enrollments & earners and a brief summary of TripleClicks. A registration form is also included.
Everything in one place.

Efectiveness of gateways strongly depends first on the design of a marketing campaign you choose and on the landing pages you decide to create.

Yet, some of the gateways proved to give better results than other anyhow,at least in my experience and according to some ECA'S.

We are given these gateways for sponsoring new PSA's:
The FREE/ REAL
The FIRST- sfi1.biz
The INVITATION

Some of the ECA'S who specialize in selling hits and visitors to gateways claim that REAL and sfi1.biz are receiving the best response.

Indeed, i noticed that fact is true based on my own hit-tracker experience.

Is it the design? Is it the content? I can't tell for sure...But for what i know,it's proabably both of those because design and content are two general factors that determine effectiveness of any gateway page.

All i know is those two gateways receive the best response.

You should,anyhow, have your own experience and make that decicion by yourself by using different gateways and comparing results.

And remmember- carefully designed marketing campaign with a well done landing page has a lot to do with attracting good quality downline.

The best SFI Gateway to use depends entirely on your audience. If you have people looking for a sales platform--and I know many crafters looking for additional ways to sell online--the ECA Gateway is by far the best and works out most profitable because of all the commissions you can earn when they start promoting and selling. Once they're in, you might also convert them to becoming SFI affiliates. On the other hand, there are people who prefer the residual income route. For them, the invitation gateway is the best. With this logic, you can see that each of the gateway links has a different target audience.

Some of them, like the Wave3 gateway, carry the most difficulty in getting the person to sign up and follow through with the decal and picture. I've found many people are either too lazy or too apathetic to follow through--your mileage may vary. Similarly, it has seemed lately that musicians don't follow through well enough to bring their fans in to vote for them, with a common complaint that it seems to them like a straight-up cash-grab by TripleClicks. I tend not to use this one as much.

For me, it's the ECA link that grabs people's attention--I can sell people on it well because they feel that it can bring them money more quickly.
