Website submissions

A great tip that is very overlooked to get your website and business out there on the big, bad web -- submit your website directly to search engines.

A lot of marketers think just because they blog about a website or make a myspace page referencing it that they will get a ton of traffic because they are doing other things to point towards their site. Not always the case, my friends. Sometimes backlinks get lost in translation. For example, with myspace, redirecting someone to a link for your webpage is a 2 step process where myspace converts all links to a myspace (msplink) caution before you can click through. Not the most direct method in free traffic flow to your business site.

Submitting your website directly to Google or Yahoo Directory
or Yellow Pages gets your website directly to all of the search engines. Of course, definately keep up the backlinking and link posting as much as possible, because it definately improves search engine ratings. Submitting your business website to multiple search engines puts your direct website into search results, rather than links that eventually get website wanderers there. And there are a TON of directories out there that url submissions are free or very cheap. Think Google, Yellow Pages, MSN, Y!Directories, Submit Express, AddMe, local business directories, etc. Get a good list going of where you want to submit your website to, and dedicate an hour or 2 to submittals. An easy workday thats well worth it!

Just another tip to make everyone's life easier ... food for thought :-)

Keeping Your Social Media Centralized

I find that with so many different socail networking, social bookmarking, social comment software, general networking and communication, and Web 2.0 type sites, pages, and memberships out there - staying centralized and focused when attempting many of these marketing methods is sometimes problematic. There is just SO MUCH out there for you to connect with others, and spread the word about what you are doing/selling/marketing that sometimes I find it difficult to keep up with. Needless to say, I am always on the lookout for new methods to make my life easier!!

One particular method that aggregates a decent amount of social and sharing sites is FriendFeed. Other similar sites definately exists, each of them on different levels. For example, Digsby combines a bunch of social media and chatting capabilities into one location. FriendFeed is similar in that it combines social media and other Web 2.0 applications into one membership - but it also gives it all a singular profile and feed, and updates changes in any account in a Real Time application manner using each websites feed. Very convenient - a must check out.

FriendFeed website - http://www.friendfeed.com (no brainer, right?)

Back into the Marketing Game :-)

After taking a brief haitus to move into a new space to accomodate our business, Mark and I are back in full effect :-)

My Internet Business is doing exceptionally well, and we have also expanded into an incredible cash gifting program -- both of which have been extremely beneficial to us and our team members! And always, if you have any questions about either program we concentrate on, feel free to visit our My Internet Business Website, our Gifting Website or contact us directly (our phone number is available on either website).

On a general note, there are some great new tips I will be updating my blog with for all of our fellow internet marketers out there. We have been continually searching for new and innovative methods of marketing to keep ahead of the curve, as always :-)

Within article marketing, a great tip to check out is a free program called JetSpinner. This program takes each article you write and spins the content phrase by phrase (a little tricky to get at first, but once you do it a few times, it's VERY helpful). This allows the same article to be recognized by search engines as original content when submitting articles to multiple article submission sites. Very handy indeed. In turn, this increases the search engine rating of your articles, and thereby increases traffic through each "original" article and its backlinking.

A couple links for this:
www.jetsubmitter.com
www.spontent.com/spinner
www.articlepromoter.com/z/jetspinner

All these links take you to the same place to get the same software :-) And it is FREE, so get it while it still is!

Success is a Choice. Make that Choice Today!
Happy Marketing!
