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.

FastWebFormula2 Becomes The Internet Marketing Success Of The Year

(PRWEB) September 30, 2010

September 2010 saw the elite of the internet marketing world descend upon Sydney, Australia, to be guests at James Schramkos most recent high level internet marketing training, FastWebFormula2.

Two hundred participants from Canada, the US, UK and Asia, along with many Aussies, were delivered three days of hard-hitting, up-to-the-minute strategies designed to put their online businesses on steroids.

James discussed the business of internet marketing, about how knowing your market and leveraging this knowledge was one of the biggest keys to success. That several members of the Market Samurai keyword and niche research team were present was testament to the importance of careful planning before implementation.

Domaining and Site Flipping

Domaining is perhaps one of the hottest niches in the industry, and no less than three guests spoke to this topic. Australian internet pioneer, Simon Johnson shared priceless information on how to find, evaluate, buy and manage websites and domains. Englishman Kenny Goodman discussed strategies for renovating and flipping (reselling) domains, while David Jenyns gave great insights into how to determine the value of a website. (He also revealed what he believes will be the next red-hot market in domains.)

American Allstars

One of the biggest draw cards to FastWebFormula2 was the man often described as the most ripped off copywriter in the world, John Carlton. John doesnt speak publicly very often, preferring to share his techniques and strategies with those in his mentoring groups. But travel from the US to Australia for this event he did, and those fortunate enough to hear him not just discuss, but demonstrate, simple copywriting techniques, were spellbound.

Cory Boatright dominates the real estate investing online niche, and discussed how others could use his strategies to do so in their own niches.

Brian Johnson demonstrated the strategies that he and Rich Scheffren, have implemented to get results for their company, Strategic Profits, of which others mostly dream.

WordPress Queen, Leanne King

The platform of choice for internet marketers and bloggers is without doubt WordPress, and Leanne King has been crowned the WordPress Queen in recognition of her standing in the WordPress community, and of her 900 page book on the topic which has for many become their WordPress bible. Leanne previewed her Mindmap for WordPress implementation and leverage – and revealed plugins and tools that she uses, and in many cases, had created, for her use.

Leanne certainly left the audience wanting more, and there is no doubt that she will feature more prominently in a future FastWebFormula3, and indeed other international internet events.

SuperFastResults Mystery Man Exposed

Schramko operates a professional internet marketing forum, SuperFastResults, with an up-until-FastWebFormula2 partner known only as Andy G. Andy was revealed as Swiss affiliate marketing aficionado, Andy Grand – and the generous way he shared his strategies made him a firm favorite of the fast-note-taking participants.

DVD Opportunity

At no other time have so many genuinely successful exponents of internet marketing come together in a teaching environment created by James Schramko in FastWebFormula2. Realizing that not everyone could get their hands on a ticket, and recognizing that traveling to Australia was not possible for many others, Schramko invested in a professional film and editing crew to record the whole three-day event.

These DVDs of FastWebFormula2 can now be pre-ordered at a special price for a limited period only. This could very well be the only opportunity to see so many business and internet marketing experts of this calibre share their real, proven, strategies for success.

FastWebFormula2 DVDs many be ordered at: http://www.fastwebformula2.com

About James Schramko:

James Schramko is a Sydney based Internet Marketer who fired his boss in May 2008. Since then his internet marketing business has grown exponentially. James has not just mastered the essential skills you need to be a success on the internet, but he is applying them in innovative ways that have skyrocketed him to international renown.

Before developing his own information products and internet marketing tools, James started making money on the internet in a way we all can by selling other people’s products as an affiliate often earning a high commission per sale, without having a product, or the responsibility of stocking and delivering it.

James continues to developed his suite information products and automated profit systems that are in demand by the top internet marketers around the world (they now call him for advice!). In so doing he indulges his passion for product development and innovation, and mentoring students in high-level and ethical internet marketing.

Social Metrics Pro Unveils Why it Has Becomes Mandatory Since Social Signals Have Taken Over Backlinks in SEO

London, UK (PRWEB) October 18, 2012

After the Panda and Penguin algorithm updates, Google had announced an additional 200 search factors to their list in 2012 and with Google themselves incorporating social search features such as the Google +1 button, it is apparent that they do in fact take social signals into account for future online searches. Even Microsoft’s Bing have also introduced social search features. Backlinks are now less important in determining a site’s ranking than the number of “Likes,” “upvotes” or “shares” it receives via social media platforms. SEO is changing and Social Metrics Pro has become a more necessary tool for social media marketers to adapt to this change.

In the past, links pointing to a page from external sites (backlinks), were previously a major factor in the way that a site’s page ranking was determined. More backlinks meant higher rankings,so this came to be exploited by unscrupulous sites and the rise in such practices has meant an erosion in the overall value of backlinks as a marker of desirable, high-quality content. To remedy this, Google now places much more emphasis on social media signals, which are harder to fake.

Social media signals include the number of times someone clicks the Facebook “Like” or Google+ buttons on a page; the number of times the page is shared on Facebook, Pinterest, Google+ or another social network; and the number of comments from social media accounts. Since each “Like,” share or comment originates from a unique account, social signals are a much better indicator of the number of people who’ve found a page useful or relevant. Google has now ushered in the era of social signals, and Social Metrics Pro will now play a more significant role in helping marketers monitor these new search determinants.

Founder of Social Metrics Pro and search engine marketing expert Daniel Tan remarked: “[T]he term ‘outdated’ is very true when applied to backlinking to describe its situation since the introduction of the Google Panda update last year… Backlinking will continue to exist but with reduced importance.” Daniel Tan knew the day would come where people would start shifting their emphasis towards social signals – that time is now.

Social media gurus all agree that social signals are paving the way for current and future SEO marketing efforts. In order to reap the most benefit from these changes, websites will need to develop new strategies. Thankfully, we have software plugins that can help webmasters to analyse and optimize their performance on a range of social media platforms. One of these exemplary solutions is Social Metrics Pro, a WordPress plugin designed to help site owners to track and monitor social signals and social marketing. It is able to track tweets, track shares, track likes and monitor a range of other social networks.

With the prevalence of social signals, now is the time to get involved and incorporate Social Metrics Pro into your social media marketing efforts. If you intend to manage your business well, you first have to be able to measure.

About Social Metrics Pro: Daniel Tan is an SEO Expert who saw the need to be able to monitor social media activities as they relate to on-site web content development and design. Thus, the Social Metrics Pro WordPress Plugin was conceived. Beginner or advanced WordPress users can quickly and easily monitor their social media efforts in one easy, yet comprehensive, reporting system. For more information on the place of social signals in today’s SEO landscape, readers can refer to Daniel Tan’s article “Social Signals Explained – What are they and how are they important?”
