ReachBy Invites Bloggers and Readers to Collaborate

Seattle, WA (PRWEB) March 23, 2010

Between confusion over the technical aspects and a lack of free time, most blogs don’t survive for a long time. ReachBy offers bloggers a new streamlined platform providing solutions on both fronts with a complete package of key blogging tools and an all-in-one blog Stream for a continuous flow of fresh content.

Whether blog owners wrote it or not.

Many blogs become stale over time as writers lose interest and inspiration, eventually drifting away. ReachBy is a ready-made solution that allows readers to contribute guest posts to any blog. The Head Writer of the blog considers the posts for submission, including them at will for a steady flow of new content. It’s an all-access pass to an unlimited number of different viewpoints and fresh inspiration.

A ReachBy Stream also lets bloggers ReStream other blog posts. Like a Twitter ReTweet, ReStreamed posts give credit to the original author with a big thumbs up for new potential readers. Streams are geared towards social media, with built-in connectors linking them to Twitter, Facebook, RSS feeds, Digg, Reddit, StumbleUpon and counters like ‘ReTweet’ and ‘Share on Facebook’.

ReachBy is designed for easy use by both first-time bloggers and blogging professionals.

“Making a blog post is strikingly similar to composing a letter and attaching a picture. Reviewing and managing postsis like looking at the Inbox,” says Nadia Goulina, an editor at ReachBy. “Advanced users will enjoy a Wiki-like markup that allows text styling, content structuring, and embedding videos from YouTube and Vimeo. ReachBy also offers full integration with the Webmaster tools on Google, Yahoo and Bing, plus ability to serve ads from personal Google AdSense and Kontera accounts.”

ReachBy was founded in 2007 to act as a service offering minimalistic online contact page. Blogging represented the wave of the future for today’s 2.0 Web surfer, however, and it wasn’t long before the Seattle based startup transformed into a modern blogging platform built with collaboration in mind.

“For power bloggers who mastered WordPress, ReachBy may look like a toy,” says Goulina. “But people have toys because they’re fun, easy and more forgiving. ReachBy provides free service that lets people quickly start a new blog and have all basic functions built-in.”

HootSuite Adds Social Network Team Collaboration Tools - Ideal for Agencies, Enterprises, Consultants and Marketing Groups

(PRWEB) April 12, 2010

HootSuite Media Inc. released Team Collaboration tools in a new version of the popular social media dashboard. Specifically designed for group coordination, teams can now better manage message publishing and conversation monitoring across multiple social networks.

Best known as a web and mobile-based tool for managing Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin and other social networks, HootSuite continues to respond to organizations who use the dashboard for customer relationship management and support desks applications, in addition to social media promotional campaigns.

This fundamental advancement will enable enterprises, agencies, content publishers, and consultants to work with clients and colleagues seamlessly, without sacrificing control over confidential account info or compromising message timeliness.

Power of Collaboration

From day one, HootSuite was built with teamwork in mind by offering a solution for managing multiple accounts with numerous contributors. Over the past year, HootSuite added more social networks and additional ways to share access with teams. This new release was developed to better control communication channels by designating “Owners” and “Team Members” to each social network account.

Owners and Teammates

Each social network account now requires an Owner who “holds the keys” to that account (note: this Owner is chosen the next time the user logs in). This Owner can then add Team Members with Basic or Advanced access. Ownership is easily transferred to a client or other Team Member as roles change.

Teams Members are up and running quickly with columns for brand monitoring, keyword searches, list following and more — allowing Teams to concentrate on tracking conversations, spreading messages, and monitoring what works with on-board statistics.

Once assigned to a social network, Team Members can post messages, create additional views and columns, and interact with the details of social networks. Plus, Team Members can add ad hoc social accounts for external teams or personal use, and create their own Teams, all without setting up a separate HootSuite account.

Talk to Everyone

Team Members can also add RSS feeds allowing a auto-updates to social networks whenever a blog, photostream, or other news feed is updated. Users can select a publishing interval, destination social network, and even pre-pend the updates with custom messaging.

Another tool to assist group communication is the “Reply to All” feature. A single click will pre-populate a message with all recipients of the original message without requiring copy-and-pasting or memorizing Twitter handles. This highly-requested feature offers another way to participate in the social conversation while saving keystrokes and time.

Release Resources

To share the benefits of the new release, HootSuite:

Annual "Evvie" for Excellence in Search Engine Study Papers Awarded

Boston, Mass. (PRWEB) May 2, 2010

Stephen E. Arnold of ArnoldIT.com, http://www.arnoldit.com, announced the Evvie “best paper award” for 2010 at Infonortics’ Boston Search Engine Meeting on April 26-27.

The Evvie Award went to Dr. David R. Milward of Linguamatics, http://www.linguamatics.com/, for “From Document Search to Knowledge Discovery: Changing the Paradigm.” Milward received a recognition award and a check for $ 500.

The paper presented covered using agile text mining to provide decision-makers directly with answers rather than searching sets of documents, particularly in the pharmaceutical industry. The program outlined “how an agile NLPbased approach for discovering facts and relationships from free text can be used to leverage scientific knowledge and move beyond search to automated profiling and hypothesis generation from millions of documents in real time.”

Milward has 20 years experience of product development, consultancy and research in natural language processing. He is a co-founder of Linguamatics and designed the I2E text mining system which uses a novel interactive approach to information extraction. He has been involved in applying text mining to applications in the life sciences for the last 10 years, initially as a senior computer scientist at SRI International. David has a PhD from the University of Cambridge and was a researcher and lecturer at the University of Edinburgh. He is widely published in the areas of information extraction, spoken dialogue, parsing, syntax and semantics.

The Evvie is given in honor of Ev Brenner, one of the leaders in online information systems and functions. The award was established after Brenner’s death in 2006. Brenner served on the program committee for the Boston Search Engine Meeting since its inception almost 20 years ago. He had two characteristics that made his participation a signature feature of each year’s program: He was willing to tell a speaker or paper author to “add more content,” and after a presentation, he would ask a presenter one or more penetrating questions that helped make a complex subject more clear.

This year’s Evvie was sponsored by Exalead. Arnold and ArnoldIT.com provide the trophy to keep Brenner’s push for excellence squarely in the minds of the speakers and the conference attendees. Presenting this years award was Eric Rogge, Exalead, and Liz Diamond, niece of Ev Brenner. The judges for the 2010 Evvie were Dr. David Evans (Evans Research), Sue Feldman (IDC), and Jill ONeill, NFAIS.

About Stephen E. Arnold

Stephen E. Arnold monitors search, content processing, text mining and related topics from his office in Kentucky. He works with colleagues worldwide on a wide range of online and content-related projects. The company’s Web site is http://arnoldit.com, and the Beyond Search blog is at http://arnoldit.com/wordpress/. He presented a full slate of programs about online search and Google at the Search Engine Meeting: http://www.searchenginemeeting.net/2010/speaker.aspx?speaker=StephenEArnold.

A Business Blog can be as Profitable as a Professional Website. This Trend Becomes More Newsworthy by the Day

Douglasville, GA (PRWEB) May 26, 2010

More and more people are taking a hard look at starting an online business using weblogs. Over the years blogs have played a low profile role in online sales and marketing campaigns, whereas today we have seen them become the face of many small online businesses and even some corporations. Web 2.0 (the diverse spectrum of instant online communication) has made it easier to become interactive in ways which we were unable to achieve in the past. There are so many mediums through which communication can be implemented, that everyday people can reach out to the online world and promote a product or service with tools they never knew existed. Blogging, RSS Feed, Atom feed, micro-blogging, multiple instant messaging and even programs with which you can telephone people internationally for free or almost no cost. These free tools can equip and empower everyday people with a necessary means of running a legitimate communications or products service.

As a result of such diversity people tend to take notice every time new applications come to light. The internet is in our PDA, our Blackberry, even our cell phones. The television and gaming consoles can readily access the internet as well. The world is constantly being driven by these changing venues and evolving Web 2.0 technologies. Also because this has happened so quickly, it’s just that much more compelling. Even third world countries seem to be obsessed with the world wide web. India could be flooding, facing a devastating drought or even a terrorist attack; yet business goes on and their social structure is changing more rapidly than any other culture in modern history. This kind of change happens because the world wide web makes communication and interactivity so easily accessible.

In spite of all these ways which the internet has impacted the entire planet, most people are completely unaware of how easy and cost effective it is to get started in online business. Most of them believe that you need an expensive web designer to build your website and maintain it for you. This is untrue. There are some excellent hosting services that will host your domain for less than $ 10 per month and the blog can be installed as a feature included in your hosting package and you build it yourself. This is one of the most popular venues out there today, using a system called Fantastico, which instantly installs a WordPress blog into a domain root, literally at the push of a button. However even people without computers can go to the library, sign on to Blogger and build their own blog absolutely free. These blogs are sub-domains in the blog service and can be used to promote products and services on the world wide web for absolutely free.

At this point all they do is pick an affiliate product from one of the millions to be found within various affiliate marketing companies. These companies allow vendors to sell products by using independent affiliates to promote them. The affiliate just places the product on a blog or website and makes straight commissions on any sales accrued through his or her affiliate link. Clickbank, Commission Junction or Google Affiliate Network are all free to join, reliable affiliate marketing programs, wherin a person can find literally millions of products and services to sell as an affiliate. Be it clothing, bridal wear, jewelry, electronics, pianos, mp3 downloads, internet marketing software, computers, cell phones, ipods, ipads; the list goes on forever! Anybody can start an online business for cheap or even nothing, using a fully functional weblog as a website to promote products and services. They can post daily content about their niche and target their market, using keyword identification and interactive blogging with other like domains and bloggers. This market is now so target rich that anyone can set a reasonable marketing goal and achieve it. Blogging puts all the communications and promotions tools at the fingertips of anyone who is willing to try.

OPENapps Releases an Official Beta of its Web Application Marketplace

Toronto (PRWEB) June 2, 2010

OPENapps is revolutionizing the world of web development for both web developers and website owners alike. Rather than spending countless hours trying to code a custom application for your website or spending thousands of dollars to hire a programmer, OPENapps offers a better way. OPENapps has opened the official beta of its web application marketplace where developers can create and sell new applications and website owners can quickly and easily integrate high quality web applications into their site. Within minutes a website owner can take a web application and easily implement it on their site, while maintaining their own distinct branding and look and feel.

OPENapps app store allows developers to get their application to market

The OPENapps marketplace was designed to solve challenges seen time and time again by website owners and web application developers. Many website owners want advanced functionality on their website but either lack the technical expertise, resources or time to implement applications properly. Web application developers are often forced to choose a single platform to develop their application which narrows their market. Then they face a challenge of how best to monetize their web creations. OPENapps addresses all of these issues and provides a place for website owners to buy applications and for developers to sell their applications.

Since the pre-beta launch, OPENapps has experienced a flood of interest from both the web and developer community. I have been overwhelmed by the interest we have received from both website owners and the developers. I think it speaks to the fact that we are addressing some important issues here. There is a general sentiment out there that people are looking for an easier way to deploy applications on a website and developers are looking for better ways to develop and sell their applications to a broader audience says Adam Sadowski, President of OPENapps.

Are you the next great application developer? OPENapps wants you! OPENapps is looking for companies to turn their applications into OPENapps

OPENapps is collaborating with many application vendors to bring exciting new applications into the OPENapps marketplace. We at OPENapps are actively inviting new developers to join our beta program. We want to provide you with a new revenue stream for your application and to provide your customers with an innovative solution for integrating your applications into their web sites says Joseph Puopolo, Director of Marketing and Community for OPENapps. Any developer interested in deploying their application can do so by emailing joseph (at) Openapps.com to join.

New Online Physical Therapy Marketing Academy Helps Physical Therapists Conquer The Web

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) June 2, 2010

The PT Marketing Academy (http://www.ptmarketingacademy.com ) is a one of a kind internet marketing academy developed especially for physical therapists who want to market their physical therapy business online. This is done by using proven techniques and strategies for physical therapists to get new patients, clients and customers with Web 2.0 and social media.

Samuel Awosolu is the founder of PT Marketing Academy, and has over a decade of experience being both a Physical Therapist as well as an web developer and Internet Marketer. This rare combination of skills gives him a unique perspective on the problems that physical therapists face while trying to build a website presence and then having to promote it online.

Samuel has done extensive internet marketing consulting work in the past, and launched the PT Marketing Academy, when he realized that it was the only way to address the frustration that Physical Therapists face while trying to market their products and services online. Physical Therapy Marketing is not taught in the curriculum of most PT schools which can be a problem if you have to run your own private practice, promote a physical therapy product, or teach a physical therapy continuing education course, says Samuel addressing the frustrations of his colleagues in his profession.

Even though the PT Marketing Academy has just recently launched, there are already some very satisfied students of his academy. Don Myers of the Body Mechanics MT is one such individual who told us: Sam knows a lot about Internet Marketing. He just knows his stuff.

Samuel Awosolu himself says that while his background as a PT, web developer and Internet Marketer is the cornerstone of his expertise, what really sets him apart is the fact that he has gone through the travails that most PTs undergo when they first try to market themselves on the web.

When I started out, I had no coach or mentor. I had no one to turn to, and to add to that, marketing is not even a subject that most PTs study at school. So, I had to figure out everything on my own and I can empathize with other PTs, and understand their problems much better says Samuel.

Keeping in mind that most PTs are not necessarily very tech-savvy and get overwhelmed with the amount of information online about marketing their services, Samuel created a step by step online physical therapy marketing system especially designed for Physical Therapists that helps them become more successful by promoting their website or blog online using Web 2.0 strategies and social media sites like Facebook,Twitter, and YouTube. Following his program leads to greater client referrals, buyers for physical therapy products, and attendees for physical therapy continuing education courses. This also ultimately translates to a better bottom-line for the physical therapy business owner.

So what should you expect from the PT Marketing Academy? The course gives you a well-rounded perspective and in-depth knowledge about all the tools at your disposal to build a successful website or blog. This includes:

Tutorials on search engine optimization which shows you how to get patients, clients, and buyers through the search engines like Google, Yahoo, and Bing.

How to setup and promote your WordPress blogs in order to connect with your patients, customers or attendees of your physical therapy continuing education courses.

Tutorials on YouTube video marketing to drive traffic to your website or the doorstep of your physical therapy private practice.

Tutorials on building a list of loyal followers with email marketing and sending out promotional material through newsletters.

Tutorials on how to use social media sites like Twitter,Facebook, and YouTube to build trust and a loyal following to your physical therapy business.

Live webinar workshops with Q&A sessions related to anything in your physical therapy marketing of your website.

Free online web hosting.

And much more!

This learning system is simple and straightforward. No solid knowledge in marketing is required. All it takes is a computer with internet access. Any Physical Therapist who goes through the PT Marketing Academy and follows the tutorials outlined will ultimately master how to promote their website or blog to their targeted audience and leverage their products and services to increase sales and revenue.

What is sure to surprise you is the price of the PT Marketing Academy. For a limited period, Samuel is offering a 12 day sneak a peak trial at only one dollar! Thats peanuts for something that can possibly bring you a lot of revenue to your physical therapy business and potentially improve the growth of your business over time.

Whats interesting is that this information is not being taught anywhere and the fact that it specifically caters to physical therapists is what makes this physical therapy marketing system unique.

If you dont like what you see, you can cancel your membership enrollment without any hassles. That just goes to show how confident Samuel is about his online PT Marketing Academy and how it can save a lot of physical therapist the pain of trying to understand how all this new web marketing technology works.

Just know that this is a cutting edge idea, and the price at which Samuel is offering it makes it all the more necessary for all PTs interested in growing their business to try it out. What the PT Marketing Academy does is show physical therapist in business for themselves, the secrets of getting a huge amount of traffic to your website or blog using cutting edge internet marketing strategies and tactics that replace the outdated ways of marketing like phone books, newspapers, radio ads and TV. Understand that we are in the new Web 2.0 and social media age, and physical therapy marketing will follow this trend.

New Online Physical Therapy Marketing Academy Helps Physical Therapists Conquer The Web

Blue Collar Interactive Moving and Shaking in a Slow Economy

Hood River, Ore. (PRWEB) June 9, 2010

Just six months after opening up shop, Blue Collar Interactive (http://www.bluecollaragency.com), a full-service interactive advertising agency focused on delivering breakthrough creative work and honest client service, is flexing some serious creative muscle and showing exciting growth during a time where many others in the industry are struggling. Between awarding Habitat for Humanity a $ 20,000 creative services package as part of their launch campaign, to a big first site launch for Sigma Corporation of America, to adding award wins and clients to their roster, to creating a modern vintage office space and hiring a new full-time team member, Blue Collar is proving that they are here to stay.

We attribute our success to the fact that were staying true to our dedication to exceed our clients expectations, said April Donovan, Partner and Co-Creative Director. Were rolling with the punches, expanding our expertise with projects that include global brand development, mobile site design and development, new social media integration techniques and pushing the limits of WordPress.

Blue Collars first official project was the launch of a fully-redesigned website for Sigma Corporation of America (http://www.sigmaphoto.com) in Feb. The new site for the photography lens manufacturer features an immersive, customer-centric experience with the Sigma brand and photography products and set a new standard within their industry. It has since garnered a number of accolades and Sigma was so impressed with Blue Collars work that they officially hired them as their agency of record to lead their marketing initiatives for the company, creating and managing online advertising and email marketing campaigns for the remainder of 2010.

Blue Collar has also been busy working with Habitat for Humanity Portland/Metro East, the winner of the Blue Collar Creative Open House and recipient of a $ 20,000 grant for creative services. Blue Collar launched the campaign in January and took nominations from Oregon-based businesses and non-profits who were in desperate need of creative and interactive marketing services to help them survive the rocky economy. After community voting, Habitat for Humanity demonstrated their strong core values and commitment to the community and was named the winner. Donning hard hats in March, Blue Collar got their hands dirty and went to work on a job site called Jubilee Commons, to fully understand what Habitat for Humanity does for the community. They also completed a full analytics and SEO review for Habitats current website to help them increase conversion of donations and volunteers on their site. Blue Collar will be working with Habitat in the coming months to develop interactive strategies and web initiatives that will help them raise much-needed donations and awareness for their cause within the community.

And what can you expect to see from Blue Collar in the near future? They are already hard at work on website projects for Rollic (gear for dirt, water and snow), Tactical Distributors (tactical gear for the armed forces and law enforcement community) and the Right Brain Initiative (a collaboration among artists and other community members working to develop a systemic and sustainable solution for providing whole brain learning opportunities for children). Other projects that Blue Collar will launch shortly include Regence: Whats the Real Cost? (a public awareness campaign designed to educate Regence members and community leaders about the drivers of health care costs) and a mobile site for the easy-to-use email marketing service, Mail Chimp.

With a plan to move into their long-term office in early fall, the BC team is putting considerable energy into making their current work space something truly exceptional. Going for a mix of modern and vintage, the team has picked up some great pieces that really speak to the Blue Collar branda rebuilt Sinclair gas pump, 1948 Jeep Willys grill, and 10 mounted marlin they call Marvin.

To add to all the excitement going on at the shop, Blue Collar has been quietly adding a few creative awards and accolades to their portfolio. Including an Interactive Media Award, DOPE Award, and American Design Awards for both their portfolio site and the Sigma Photo website. They were also recently profiled in the Portland Business Journal as professionals to watch in the advertising industry.

Blue Collar also recently hired a new mechanic to the Account Services team, adding the talent and energy of Jay Gifford, a strategist whose main focus will be leveraging social media campaigns to raise awareness and help clients reach their audiences online. Gifford hails from the Sportsgrants Foundation where he worked to spearhead a series of fundraising initiatives for organizations such as the Lance Armstrong Foundation. Prior to that, Jay worked with Outdoorplay where he helped the company grow into one of the largest online kayak retailers in the world. An avid kayaker, Gifford was selected by the National Geographic Explorer to participate in The Kamchatka Project, an expedition paddle throughout the month of July into the depths of Siberia to collect research on the place, its people and its fisheries.

Founded on the idea that a small group of talented people can ultimately do great work with a smaller budget, Blue Collar Interactive offers a wide range of creative and client services, web development and interactive marketing services. Their management team consists of three founding senior partners and an advisory board of junior partners that leverage a well-balanced suite of expertise to offer clients one-stop-shopping for their interactive needs. Blue Collars gritty, hand-shake approach to creative marketing solutions, is backed by a dedication to strong business relationships through hard work, brutal honesty, integrity and trust.

NetSoft Studio Awards Shopping Cart Software Hits Page One Rankings in the Search Engines

Reno, NV (PRWEB) July 1, 2010

NetSoft Studio Software announces their awards shopping cart software, BizWizard ShopKart, for awards and trophy stores, has customers ranking on page one and often position one of the three major search engines such as Google, Yahoo and Bing in the organic search listings for major awards and trophy industry search keywords.

Customers of NetSoft Studio Software who are using BizWizard ShopKart are finding their organic rankings within search engines moving to the primary pages at the beginning of the keyword searches such as acrylic awards, crystal awards, perpetual plaques, cup trophies, glass awards, baseball trophies, soccer trophies just to name a few. A big boost for NetSoft Studio’s awards shopping cart software program.

Niels Norby of SD Trophy informs us that “I have seen many web site software solutions come out on the market, and after researching, I have found that only BizWizard ShopKart actually does what it promises to do and actually has a high return on investment by keeping my search engine rankings high, thus bringing in the new business.”

Niels goes on to tell us that he is averaging $ 190,000/year in revenue directly from his awards shopping cart solution provided by NetSoft Studio’s BizWizard ShopKart software and his investment to achieve those sales figures is a mere $ 1,800/year. In the words of Niels “Wow, what a return on investment!”

My Online Business StrategyA User-Friendly Concept in Affiliate-Marketing

Seattle, WA (PRWEB) July 1, 2010

Gary Gregorys “My Online Business Strategy” system is an affiliate-marketing program that introduces new marketers to business on the World Wide Web. Doug Taylor, working with Gregorys new system, states that the MOBS strategy is not a typical work-at-home program.

The system is an in-depth business plan on how to break into the affiliate-marketing industry using Internet communications. It is an original creation of business guru Gary Gregory, and not a repackaged affiliate system. Taylor states that the process involves creating marketable websites, which will help increase traffic and boost sales, both of which will earn work-at-home marketers substantial money.

Taylor states no web designing experience is required for new users. The system explains how one can use WordPress online software to create a website without having knowledge of HTML or CSS. Users will not have to pay for expensive software like Dreamweaver or Joomla either, since open-source software like WordPress allows free and easy access to a standardized web publishing system. The Gary Gregory system also explains how to push a sites ranking up Google search engines in just a short while.

Benefits of the “My Online Business Strategy” system include a thorough business plan explaining how and where profit will come from, many free resources which can help in generating leads and building websites, and flexibility when it comes to marketing and scheduling. The system was created to be people driven. This is a program that emphasizes the satisfaction of program users. In fact, the offices of Gary Gregory are so confident that newcomers will learn the system, they are offering 24-hour technical support. This is in stark contrast to the many other affiliate programs that have no communication process with the user after initial purchase.

The My Online Business Strategy system is launching in August of 2010. Doug Taylors blog reviews some technical and logistical aspects of the system, while also providing new video content.

This is exactly the type of event Applied I Labs was designed for: an open invitation to our customers and the development community to experience and participate in shaping a new platform, technology, application or program. With Applied I Labs, the server is independent and isolated, so its a secure environment to explore and test freely.

It also dovetails with all of the most popular open source apps such as DotNetNuke, Umbraco, WordPress and Joomla. Running right on the desktop, WebMatrix makes the transition from development to production smooth and seamless by utilizing the same powerful web server and programming environment that runs websites on the Internet.

WebMatrix is a task-focused tool that is designed to make it really easy to get started with web development, reported Seth Guthrie in his July 6, 2010 blog entry. It minimizes the number of concepts someone needs to learn in order to get simple things done, and includes and integrates all of the pieces necessary to quickly build Web sites.
