Increase Traffic: Keep Out of the Cliques
2007-12-02 18:42:00
Ahh. The life of extraordinary popular delusions and the madness of crowds.Interesting how the web has so many opportunities to connect with people all over the world and yet most users favor to associate with designated groups they feel comfortable with. Small groups they can feel a part of. Associations to get a sense of belonging. Cliques that they can lead or cliques to join where you will feel closer to the top. Yet the thought leaders of the Internet and real world think otherwise. The best part is they are the ones who create the cliques knowingly or not! How can you increase your traffic you ask? 1. What is a Clique? According to Wikipedia a Clique is a group of individuals who posses the same patterns of behavior and seek out to compare themselves with others in the same social status. Call me a chameleon I can jump from clique to clique and never be a member of any given group. That includes online and off. As an example in most recent years the Seattle Freeze has been a ...

Marketing with Myspace
2007-11-16 17:37:00
Myspace is still one of the best ways to get targeted traffic to your website or blog. You don't need to know a lot of Myspace html codes or have fancy Myspace widgets. Myspace lays it all out for you!1. Profile: Plain or Pimped Out? - Your audience determines if you need a pimped out Myspace background or the default.Are you trying to attract business types, and yes they have Myspace profiles, or a younger crowd of more artist types? If you don't know much about Myspace widgets or free myspace layouts, either hire someone to pimp out your Myspace page or keep it simple.Your user name should be in relation to your business. Use your first and last name if you are trying to be recognized as an individual business owner. Use your business or domain name as you would want it to be picked up by search engines. On my profile I have my first and last pen name and my Myspace URL set to my domain. That way either keyword will bring up my profile.2. Promote Your Site - Be blatant and post ...

There is more than one way to promote a blog. So what is a marketing person to do when the only articles they run into are blogging basics to promote your blog. Well you write your own posts!In this attempt I will reaveal my own ways to promote your blog without the obvious basics.Marketing CampaignsNo marketing campaigns are not obvious. What's a marketing campaign you ask? It's when you list of all the marketing techniques that you are going to use to promote your blog. Date, objective and budget.Marketing campaigns are number one and the reason they are No. 1 is because you don't even need a blog yet to start marketing!Business plans are too formal and if you have one neat-o. You can save them for later if you are going to sell your blog or invest with others for a business venture. For now a marketing campaign will save your butt. Why? You have something on paper to show potential clients. You test what works and what doesn't and have documentation for reference. You can als...
