The Power Of Twitter And Social Media
Sep 22nd
There are perhaps many people who don’t know the power of Twitter and social media. You need only to think what it was like a decade ago though and how incredibly difficult it was to get in touch with people if you compare this to our current situation.
Social media refers to the social interaction of humans through technology. Twitter is possibly the fastest growing form of this type of media. Twitter is a micro blogging service where one can send and receive messages known as tweets. It has been called the “SMS of the Internet” as each message is only 140 characters.
Twitter is the current flavor of the internet with loads of people going online every day to share their thoughts with the world. An incredible statistic is the fact that almost sixty million people sign on to the site every month. That is mind boggling if you think of what it would take to actually meet all these people.
Social media takes on more than just the form of Twitter. There is communication media which takes the form of blogs where people can write what they want, where they want. Collaborations such as Wikipedia where people are able to add content if they know about a subject and multimedia like Flickr are also examples.
Social media gives Joe Public a voice and this is what entertainment companies have realised is so important. It is now common to see TV and sports networks ensuring that they allow blogs on their site so that people can interact as much as possible and this means that there is greater identification with their brands. It is an important marketing tool.
If you want to be a success in the marketing world then you need to recognize the power of Twitter and social media. Learn to use it to your advantage and you will soon have a very meaningful online presence.

Why A Blog Is Key To Driving Traffic To Your Site
Aug 25th
Those of you out there that want to generate traffic to your website, but are having trouble doing so this will be a great resource for you. Of all the web 2.0 variances out there probably the best way to get search engine traffic is through a blog.
This post is meant to give you the very basics of a blog. Within our eCourse that you can sign up to receive on the right hand side of the page we cover blogging and much, much more.
Why is a blog so key to getting more traffic?
The reason is it is exactly what the search engines are looking for. They want fresh, up to date and highly relevant content to provide their web surfers. A blog does exactly that. If you update it regularly and have it set up properly it will be pinging various sites which are spidered by the search engine robots. So as you update it your pages will be found by the search engines.
Here are a few keys to good blogging;
- Pick a general topic and stick to that topic (internet marketing, your product, your company, etc.)
- Post quality interesting posts that have personality in them
- Be an expert on your topic
- Write press releases that are newsworthy and link back to your blog
- Encourage your readers to subscribe to your newsletter or RSS feed
