A sales lead is the identity of a person or entity potentially interested in purchasing a product or service, and represents the first stage of a sales process. The lead may have a corporation or business associated (a B2B lead) with the person(s). Sales leads come from either marketing lead generation processes such as trade shows, direct marketing, advertising, Internet marketing or from sales person prospecting activities such as cold calling. For a sales lead to qualify as a sales prospect, or equivalently to move a lead from the process step sales lead to the process sales prospect, qualification must be performed and evaluated. Typically this involves identifying by direct interrogation the lead's product applicability, availability of funding, and time frame for purchase. This is also the entry point of a sales tunnel, sales funnel or sales pipeline.

    6. Ad Submission Service

    Welcome to the Internet's premier Ad submission service web site, Blastomatic, #1 throughout the Internet. Blast-O-Matic has developed a viral system that combines AD submission with a confirmation of your data prior to submitting, there-by eliminating the aggravating false submission, spamming, and email bombing associated with all the rest of the AD submission services. We also offer free AD systems on our other servers if you are looking for an excellent lead generator. Contact me for more information on how you can get one of these new lead systems for your self or business. By the way, our new lead sites also come with a free autoresponder system and a lead control panel to help you manage the leads this system brings in. This is one powerful marketing system!

    Search engines are the latest craze, because that's where most of a web site's traffic comes from! Over 48% of your site's traffic comes from people looking for what you have in the search engines. But only the top 20 in any type of search will draw the traffic. You don't have to think very far to realize that you will probably never reach those heights in the search engine wars. However, all is not lost. The next big source of traffic is good news. Links from other sites represent about 20% of site traffic. This is where link sites, Guest books, Web Boards and Classifieds come in. Our Blast-O-Matic service submits to all the links, Guest books, Web Boards and Classifieds on the Internet. This represents over 12 million links to your site and can represent a major increase in site traffic in the short run. If you continue to use this service every 30 or so days, you will get more traffic and more traffic is good, right?

    We have also addressed the problem of false and erroneous submissions by putting our subscribers into the equation. You may have noticed that most other link/search engine submission services charge a sizable fee for their service. We do not charge you a fee to help you achieve the desired results regarding your marketing efforts and using our Blast-O-Matic system. This also assures that our system gets little if any unscrupulous submissions and false email addresses, both saving you time, money as well as making a mentor available to help you.

    Allowing your visitors to leave a link from your AD system to theirs is also a great way to build traffic. Giving them a Links Page and autoresponder is one of the best ways to develop a loyal subscriber. We have both services. Anyone can get a free submission system from us which includes an autoresponder lead control panel and as one of our subscribers you get the lead details from anyone setting up a free submission system.

    We have discussion and Support Forums! Get your marketing questions answered by successful webmaster, share your experiences and show off your expertise, learn Internet marketing tips and tricks, or just start a general discussion. We guarantee that every question will be answered. We also have a weekly live broadcast you can interact with to listen to and learn first hand from the pros. Contact me to find out how you can get in on the calls.

    You'll probably also want to subscribe to our newsletter. If you do, each month we'll send you a concise report detailing proven traffic-building strategies that you can put to use and profit from immediately.

    All About Leads and Lead Generation

    Leads are one of the most important elements in having success with an online business on Google. The statement that the money is in the leads list is true.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

    PRLog (Press Release - http://www.prlog.org/10150885-all-about-leads-and-lead-generation.html )

    Dec 04, 2008

    TX

    The choice, whether to buy leads, or actually learn to generate leads to promote a business online, is the issue in this press release. Certainly leads can be purchased from a few cents per lead, to $10 or more. The leads that leads companies sell are so called fresh prospecting leads, but the actual fact is that those leads have been bought and sold hundreds and possibly thousands of times. A fresh lead is something that a savvy online marketer should learn to produce themselves.

    The proper way to generate a lead, is to build a captivating lead capture page, and then promote that page to keywords on Google where that information can be found. This is the problem that most marketers face, that they do not know how to SEO (search engine optimize) the websites to get the rankings. It is much like having an affiliate page. The affiliate pages in most MLM companies will fall short of the SEO mark. In other words, they will be seen as nothing more than digital trash on the search engines. This leads to frustration in marketing. Most people who purchase domains, simply forward those domains to the affiliate site being promoted. This is another mistake in marketing as a forwarded domain, without the masking feature set in place, is almost worthless as well.

    The fact of the matter is this. An online marketer who is attempting to build a business on the search engines should become educated and knowledgeable on the exact processes and systems that will give them a competitive edge in marketing. Systems are currently in place for that type of education.

    In the newly designed site, AllAboutLeads.net, one finds the necessary educational information needed to become successful with an online business. The strategies used in this site are strictly white hat SEO techniques and taught by the top leaders in business marketing on Google.

    For more information all about leads, visit this web address: http://allaboutleads.net

    Deciding to become a lead generating expert will exponentially assist the online marketing man or woman, who is committed to learning and growing their business. The websites on Google that claim instant success with little or no effort, are outdated and hold no value in today's thriving business economy on the search engine. Once the marketer becomes fully educated in the art and science of search engine optimization and lead generation, the marketing can begin with any and all businesses currently being promoted.

    11. Free Classified Ads

    Blastomatic

    Veretekk's Exclusive...

    Free Interactive Submission Service.
    Veretekk originally developed this service in 1995 to submit ads to guestbooks on a mass scale until it was quickly retooled to submit to FFA sites later that year when the FFA arrived on the scene from Matt Wright.

    Back then, it was called "The Hammer" and is credited with being THE first FFA submission tool. Veretekk then built the first FFA farm which eventually developed into a hybrid FFA system with email capture and sequential emailing capabilities. With other new companies like FFANet following Intetekk's lead, the whole FFA frenzy took off and today the Internet has been permanently impacted by those small events from a couple of entrepreneurial engineers in a garage in San Diego which was later to become Veretekk.

    As Veretekk continued development on the Hammer making it more powerful each time (Adding search engine and classified submission), the concept of making a free lite version for paying subscribers to be able to give away started to make perfect sense. This was the birth of the Traffic Portal ideology, with Blastomatic being the first of the generation. Many generations preceded this one and many more will follow.

    The primary function of the Traffic Portal is focused on the benefit of our visitor to profit from their first and subsequent visit to our subscriber's systems. Therefore benefiting our subscriber by delivering a viable intuitive mechanism that enhances and facilitates an accelerated method to build huge spheres of influence. Visitors go away with a positive experience only to return again and again as the relationship grows into a friendship.

    Now, how well would you prosper if you had 100 entrepreneurial friends? How about 1,000? How about 10,000? Thus, the first Traffic Portal concept and the beginning of Veretekk's portfolio of a powerful new lead generation system was born. The ability to build a large, valuable, intuitive database of friends on a global scale made available to the common person.

    We have given this Lite version to you so you may experience the full possibilities Veretekk has to offer. If you decide to upgrade, access to doing so can be found above with the link VERETEKK. Thanks for subscribing. We love our customers and hope you find this and other services a great benefit to your quest to succeed in this brave new world called the Internet.

    The money is in the list, as any powerful Internet marketer knows. The problem for most newbie marketers, is the fact that most have not a clue how to begin the list building process.

    14. Lead Generating System

    Leads and Lead Generating Systems

    Leads are essential in operating a successful business on Google. One needs leads to tell others about their business. It makes sense to never buy leads again. Using Leadsomatic to produce leads is the answer.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

    PRLog (Press Release - http://www.prlog.org/10146997-leads-and-lead-generating-systems.html )

    TX

    Marketing goods and services on Google is the goal of each online entrepreneur today. Leads are the critical element needed in that promoting process. It is a common practice to buy leads, but that will only lead to frustration. The leads sold by leads brokers, are highly non-cost effective. As any marketer knows who has made cold phone calls to prospects, this leads to frustration and phone anxiety. Most will not be able to handle the rejection factor.

    The answer to the riddle of marketing on Google lies in the ability to produce unique and targeted leads. Building an email leads list can be time consuming, and in some cases very costly. There is a workaround to generating one's own premium leads used in the promoting process.

    Leadsomatic can become the central focal point of promoting. Leadsomatic is designed to build a verified email list rather quickly to be used for online promoting. The low startup cost of only $10 per month, makes Leadsomatic one of the best lead generating resources found on the net today.

    The power of Leadsomatic lies in the configuration. Butch Hamilton, esteemed SEO Master, shows exactly the process of configuring the Leadsomatic lead generating system in this audio and video recording:

    http://leadsomatic.aboutleads.net

    In this site, there is found the exact setup and use procedure to enable the individual to reap the rewards of email list building to the maximum results required for marketing. Though Leadsomatic is not a quick result lead generating program, over time, the system does yield a significant amount of email leads to be used for any promoting purpose. It will be essential to designate a special email account, (Gmail is preferred), as many emails will be incoming by using the system.

    Let Leadsomatic lead the way in the promoting process. There is no substitute for quality and dependability in using Leasdomatic.

    15. Leads

    Leads are necessary elements that you need if you are operating a successful business on Google. You have a variety of choices to make in order to get leads. You can buy leads, generate leads, build lead capture pages to build an email lead list and other ways.

    If you are going to buy leads, be aware. Most of the leads that you will purhcase have been bought and sold hundreds, or even thousands of times. You will find that you will face rejection big time, when you choose to call these leads. Most people will not recognize that they even filled out a contact form to find out more information about something that you are offering. In other words, the leads sellers, are simply selling you pieces of digital trash.

    Lead generation, or producing your own leads, is really the only way to approach successful marketing. Producing a verifiable optin email leads list is the logical approach to take. But, where do you start to build an email list? Take time to explore Leadsomatic.

    With Leadsomatic, you will generate hundreds and thousands of optin email lists that you can use to promote your Google business. The cost of this service is only $10 per month. You can even earn affiliate money with Leadsomatic as well.

    I will even give you an added benefit to this leads generating program. I will show you exactly how to setup and use Leadsomatic through a video I produced just for this reason.

    Go here to see the video: http://leadsomatic.aboutleads.net

    Follow my directions and upgrade your system right away. I would setup an additional Gmail account just for this purpose, as you are going to be getting tons of email autoresponders back. This is all a normal part of the process and nothing to be concerned with at all. You will be building a verified optin email list automatically, each and every time you configure your Leadsomatic program.

    Consistency

    In this continuing series of articles, I delve deeply into the mysterious world of marketing goods and services on Google. From the last article, located here: http://igsdt.blogspot.com/2008/11/multilevel-marketing-intent-igsdt.html called Intent, I told a story about how most people will not have a clear and present focus , or intent, on the hows and whys of building a successful business on the net. In this article about consistency, I will go even further into personal insights and perspectives into the art and science of creatively marketing a business.

    Its really all about consistency and the never ending desire to create a business that is self-sustaining and lucrative, using the most powerful search engine called Google. Its a fact, that if you are wanting to gain branding and bragging rights for your name and your business, you must be consistent in your writing and posting to strategic submission services, and make your content live.

    Let's talk about consistency for just a moment, to begin to unravel the mystery of the failure rate of most home business owners. People simply do not get it. I have handed many people the keys to the kingdom of how to gain search engine rankings and how to obtain top positions on the net. Will they take this information and use it to their advantage, or will they simply drift and float down the river of most home business entrepreneurs, and do absolutely nothing? Most will do NOTHING! Its really an amazing thing to witness, but I have been the teller of this story so many times, and to so many people, yet they will still do nothing, and simply bitch, moan and whine to the tune of "I Am Not Making Money!"


    Say you want to gain rankings on Google, where do you start and end? For an example of this, simply Google my name, Butch Hamilton: http://www.google.com/search?rls=GGLJ%2CGGLJ%3A2006-37%2CGGLJ%3Aen&hl=en&q=Butch+Hamilton&btnG=Google+Search&aq=f&oq= I am showing about 210,000 entries on my name. You might ask me the question: which entry are you? I will tell you that I am almost all of them! That is correct. In other words, I have over 218,000 links out on my name alone.

    Another SEO campaign that I have done is about the keyword term leads. Leads on Google is found here: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&rls=GGLJ%2CGGLJ%3A2006-37%2CGGLJ%3Aen&q=Leads My site, http://aboutleads.net is on the first and second page of this hugely searched keyword term, by my efforts of consistently posting content concerning leads. Another of my SEO campaigns will be for the keyword term Trivita: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&rls=GGLJ%2CGGLJ%3A2006-37%2CGGLJ%3Aen&q=Trivita I have three sites listed on page one alone, and some other listing on page two of Google as well. How do I consistently gain search engine rankings? You might have guessed it, I work consistently at my art and science.

    I have many top positions on the Internet for all sorts of keywords and phrases. I write articles, press releases, blog posts and forum posts consistently. I index each of my articles to the Google spider bot, and I simply knock down positions. I am not concerned at all with the usual terms of keyword density and algorhythms, as these are another way that SEO Masters, lead people down the primrose path of thinking that gaining search engine positions is some mysterious realm that only a precious few can accomplish. There is nothing further from the truth. Its all about consistency, desire and the never give up attitude of being able to work harder than the next guy, to gain these positions.


    Here again, I can write all day, every day and never grow tired of the art and science of search engine optimization. It is a passion, a drive and a never ending amazing talent that I possess, but I look at life on the net, in very simple terms. You want success? Then you absolutely have to work for your supper here folks. If you are marketing a business on Google, Yahoo, MSN, WindowsLive and all the other major search engines, then you must follow what I am writing about here, if you ever stand a chance in hell at making money online. There, I just unlocked the keys to the kingdom of marketing successfully on the net.


    The question that I pose to you, is are you willing to step up and be counted with your business, and your name on Google, or, are you simply going to be satisfied with the crumbs of obscurity that you will doubtless receive, when you choose to do nothing. You know, we all have tough choices and decisions to make each and every second that we are breathing on this planet. Either you make the right choice, or you simply choose to be like most, who will do nothing with their lives ever, to change for the better.

    Personally, IGSDT (I Get Stuff Done Today!} There is still room at the top if you are willing to work for it!

    Trivita

    Ok, so you have been down the network marketing trail many times, but have never really had the kind of success that you are looking for, right? Be honest here. I know, as I have been there, and done that many times as well. In this article, I am going to relate to you one on one, in a very open and honest manner about Trivita, and network marketing as a whole. I feel that you will gain needed insights and perspectives into the whole process, and be able to decide for yourself, how to create a home business.

    Trivita, located in Scottsdale, Arizona, is the manufacturer of top level health food products. There is sublingual B-12, Leanology, Balanced Women, Optima 4 Health, and many other neutriceutical grade health foods available to allow you to live life fuller. I will not tell you that taking these products will make you healthy, wealthy and wise, but they will assist you in providing some extra nutrition that you probably are needed for optimal health.

    Trivita produces, manufactures, sells and ships all their own products right from the corporate Trivita headquarters. They have a full staff of medical personnel which oversee the entire process. These health products are great, and they do work in taking you into a new lifestyle that is positive and fulfilling. The customer support at Trivita are ready from 8 AM to 5 PM MST, to answer any, and all of your questions concerning their products, and every phase included in marketing Trivita as well. In other words, they are here to assist you with your journey towards wellness.


    Trivita is also a business opportunity. Now, you do NOT have to become a business affiliate to purchase their fine line of products. If you are simply looking for some great nutritional aids to your current routine, that is entirely ok as well. If you are; however, looking to start a home business, you really should look at the plan that we are using to build substantial and long term money from a home business enterprise.

    Trivita has a most unusual approach to Internet marketing. A person can come to Trivita for a nominal startup fee, buy products month by month on an autoship program, and then buy customers that will help them to build their business. Hey, I did say that. You can buy already existing customers in Trivita, and each time those people buy products, you earn a commission from their purchase. Try to sell this idea to another network marketing company. They will tell you that it just cannot be done, but Trivita is proving daily, that the media acquisition program, is the way to earn money from a home business.

    One of the reasons that I really like Trivita, is the fact that I don't have to convince, coerce or sell you on anything at all. You are obviously a bright and knowledgdable person. You know how expensive buying leads, making cold phone calls and all the other various ways that the network marketing gurus tell you to build a business, simply does not work. They try to convince you that duplication is the way to build a business. I am here to say that if you are duplicating someone else's failure, then you will fail to. In our business model, we teach and mentor you in how to build a successful online business through search engines like Google, Yahoo, MSN, WindowsLive and all the other search engines of the net. If your speciality is sales and marketing, then we can bring you in to make the phone calls to the leads that we produce.

    Talking about leads, we have the state of the art lead generating system known as Veretekk: http://808ebiz.veretekk.com. You are welcome to join this lead generation system that will help you get started off quickly to creating a database of contacts that you can use to build your business.


    Quite simply put, we are offering what NO other network marketing company can offer. We have the product known as Trivita. We have the search engine masters putting our Trivita business all over Google. We have the sales and marketing team calling the leads. And, we have the best lead generation system on the Internet today. In short, we are the perfect business model to follow, if you are willing to put in the time and effort to market this wonderful network marketing business with the style and grace that it deserves.


    My name is Al Gonzales, and I am Trivita Director. I am more than willing to work with you personally, to get you started in the right direction with Trivita, but you must contact me in order to do this write. I stand ready to assist you in any way that I can. All you need to do is go to the following websites, and fill out my contact form, and I will be happy to speak with you about your possibilities with the best network marketing system on Google today called Trivita.

    1. SpiderWeb Will Rock the Web
    Whoa Baby! This blog is getting whiskers. Anyone that has followed my path will know that I now have been heavy into educating myself about Internet marketing. Thus, the reason for no posts.

    But I have been busy and on assignment. One of the keepers is a beta program known as The SpideWeb Marketing System. If you have seen it in passing, but did not consider it...time to time warp for a reconsider. I think this is going to be the next big monetizing scheme for the web.


    Many have tried to create a self-sustained or auto-pilot system. This puppy started out with 12 streams of income, but now has 22. I have a gut feeling it's going to be a winner.

    It still is in beta, so do get in now to position yourself. Leave a comment if you want to join my team. It's no cost, but I also don't need any slackers. Yes, I will drag you along, but you have to do exactly as I say and follow a plan of action.

    Check out my blog on the subject, too, at "The SpiderWeb System Information and Reviews".


    2. How to Produce 365 Videos in One Year
    (Archived in: Online Income Reviews)

    If you have been involved in the blogosphere for long, you know that many bloggers are gravitating towards video aka Video blogs, Vlogs, Vidcasts, or a Video Podcast.

    This is a heads up on Mark Wielgus at 45n5.com. Mark is on top of online trends, and I am here to tell you that he researches, tests, and reports on things you will come to appreciate on a daily basis. All the information in this post was gleaned from 45n5. My belief is that Mark combines some marketing savvy with geekdom knowhow. He even writes simple, but useful utility programs and then gives them away for free on the blog. Here is a recent link to one he dubs "Keyword Scrubber".

    45n5.com has turned into one of the few blogs I simply must check out on a daily basis. Now Mark is committed to deciphering Affiliate Marketing as a top priority. Another project he is combining with this effort is his personal mission to produce and post a video every day in 2008.

    I think with 365 videos in the planning, his little experiment is one to watch for trends, plus the techniques, tips and tricks he is bound to uncover along the way. So, if you want to make 365 videos in one year, watch this guy in 2008 and I think you will learn something.



    3. Prioritize Your Blogging for 2008
    (Archived in: Social Media Marketing Social Media Optimization)

    Welcome to the New Year! I have been spending the last week planning for 2008, which has included changes to my blogging style. If you follow my blogs, you know that I have decided to concentrate on Digital Nomads and The Rugged Notebooks Blog as my main focus for blogging, and with less frequent posting to this blog and The Sovereign Journey.

    This is not for a lack or loss of interest, but merely a necessity of time management. Regardless, my blog niche revolves around the central theme of mobility and using technology to be independent. So, you can always check back here and/or catch my more frequent updates at the Rugged Notebooks or Digital Nomads sites. My plan this year is to move to private domains.

    One thing I have been doing is writing more focused posts...themed, if you will, or a series of posts on a subject of interest. Recently, this has had a major slant towards telecom, and in particular new gadgets like MagicJack and VoIP telephoney solutions like Google GrandCentral.

    I am finding that being more focused on a particular subject area makes it easier and more interesting to research, test, review, and write. I think my readers appreciate it a well and it is helping in the SERPS.

    If you are still blogging, drop me a line and let me know how you are getting on. There seems to have been a drop in the number of friends I met online in 2007 that have continued to blog, or scaled back like I have. -Digital Nomad


    4. Twelve Step Program for Email Addicts
    (Archived in: Online Usability Reviews)

    I saw this over at the BigString 2.0 website and thought it was good advice. BigString is an interesting concept in itself, which I will let you discover for yourself. These 12 items have been edited somewhat, so not to get dinged for duplicate content. There were some typos in the original text anyway. Enjoy.

    1. Do not send email when you are angry. Wait until you calm down before you send that email. Feelings and thoughts can be difficult to interpret and easily misconstrued.

    2. Never send a sarcastic email that could be taken out of context. Sarcasm and email do not mix. You can easily offend someone in an email without intent to do so.

    3. Do not send email gossip. You never know where the email will end up. Just make a commitment to yourself not to participate in any gossip.

    4. Never end significant relationships via email. Email is the equivalent of an electronic paper trail. Not good for any sour ending, whether business or personal.

    5. If you don't want your boss or coworkers to see it, better not send that email from work.

    6. Never put anything in writing that may come back to haunt you. A good overall policy. Not just for email.

    7. Never, ever, hit ‘Reply to All’ when you just want to send an email to one individual.

    8. Don’t email pictures of yourself to others. Especially, online acquaintances and complete strangers.

    9. Don’t make promises or commitments via email that you cannot or will not keep.

    10. When you send attachments, be sure that you have selected the correct files and documents.

    11. Good advice from New York Governor Elliot Spitzer, “Never write when you can talk. Never talk when you can nod. And never put anything in an email.”

    12. Try BigString recallable email. If you do happen to make errors...the recallable, erasable, and non-forwardable features will help to correct such mistakes.



    5. How to Build 10-Minute Affiliate Website Mashups
    (Archived in: Online Income Reviews)

    If you are searching for ways to be innovative with your online marketing, then here is another plug for many of the ideas featured at 45n5.com authored by Mark Wielgus. No, this is not a paid post.

    This is the good stuff, it's an addendum to the post on "30 Websites in 30 Days", and Mark calls this his YouTube-Ebay-Amazon Affiliate Website Mashup Thingy.



    I have had a few email exchanges with Mark, and these are a few of his cautionary thoughts by way of how he has explained the ideas behind how it should work. Most people will not succeed with this mashup concept, or any other website scripting without the underlying concept and knowledge (or experience from learning) of how to build such a niche site.

    Cranking out "out of the box" and rubber stamp solutions is what everybody else is doing. Doing the same thing that everyone else is doing online will bring the same results...which happens to be not making any money online. This also happens to mirror Einstein's theory of insanity, and he was no dummy. It's also making many people wealthy for some pretty worthless online information products.

    So, if you use the script out of the box, most of your money will be made from luck or successful keyword research (aka) what words and topics you use to build these niche minisites in mass production.

    Now is the time to learn. Take the time to consider doing it right. - Digital Nomad


    6. A SOHO Reprise of Honest Riches System
    (Archived in: Online Income Reviews)

    A 25 Year Old Entrepreneur Making a Living Online from Home


    You probably have read about or heard of The Rich Jerk and Chis X of Day Job Killer. If not you better stop and do a Google search right now. About 2 years ago, Holly Mann, a young mother started to successfully market directly against high profile Internet marketing gurus like these guys.

    Living in a foreign country with no job and few resources, Holly decided she could research, design, and deliver a kinder and gentler approach to online marketing. Evidently she found her niche selling "How-To" information, because she has become successful in a short period of time (well, a couple of years).

    "Honest Riches 2" is a 95 page proven guide. Holly shows all the techniques she has used to make money online through affiliate programs starting with no website and no start-up money, then on to free websites that can easily be setup with little or no experience, including free advertising that most people don't know or think about.

    Yes, it seems possible to make money online and work from home just about anywhere (Holly lives in Thailand), but don't quit your day job just yet. You need a system and you need the right tools and knowledge to be successful. Changing your career is a life altering decision.

    Before taking the leap, do plenty of due diligence and adequate research for information and resources about starting an online business and becoming an online entrepreneur. This e-book is geared for beginners, but is a valuable resource for all online marketers. No "get-rich-quick" schemes here....like any real business endeavor, it involves some effort and some work. But you will learn strategies and techniques to start making money right away.

    7. John Chow Calls It Quits on Agloco
    (Archive in: Weblogs and Business)

    After many attempts at beating a dead horse, everyone involved in the Agloco fiasco can now uncross their fingers. It ain't gonna happen. Even John Chow has finally admitted defeat along with almost 30,000 signed up in his Agloco network.


    Here is a partial screenshot of his last post on the subject, and here is a link to the post about the Agloco demise at TechCruch. Like John says...it shows that all those MBAs don't always muster up success, even the second time around. For posterity, watch the video on the Agloco viewbar attributes, and think about all the gurus that were on board for this.



    8. How to Build 30 Websites in 30 Days
    (Archive in Ecommerce SOHO Online Usability)

    It may sound implausible, but it is not impossible. Follow this Digital Nomad and you know that just feeding the blogs is not going to cut it anymore. Blogging should be part of your online marketing network, but not a diversion.

    I have been searching heavy for the folks that are making it online and not the wannabes. One such source is 45n5.com authored by Mark Wielgus. This guy tells it straight. You have to hunt an peck to find the good stuff, and you will have to piece it together, but I think a good start is on this website.

    Mark will show you how to find a niche, create a website in 10 minutes, and then shove it in the pipeline with some SEO tricks. Theoretically, there is no reason why you could not do this everyday for a month and then have 30 minisites up and running for affiliate programs in thirty days. That's if you want to have a website between you and the merchant.



    I am finding that you maybe don't even need a website to market affiliate programs, but you do have to commit to spending some money for Google Adword campaigns. Better have a pad and pen ready.

    There is always something to learn. Take the time to learn something new each day. - Digital Nomad

    10. Stop Feeding Your Blogs with Endless Content
    (Archived in: Social Media Marketing Social Media Optimization)

    I wanted to make a quick update in reference to writing and submitting Pillar Articles to article directories vs. the chore of "Feeding Blogs" with endless content. This test is progressing nicely. I have submitted 5 pillar articles since about the middle of last month.

    I know this is working, as I have been posting less to all the blogs I author in varying degrees as a test. This has not affected the blog traffic much at all. Traffic is actually improving, according to StatCounter and Alexa for two of the blogs that I author. One averaging over 10 page views per visitor at the time of this writing.


    It may also be that I am now writing better, more focused content, since I do not feel pressured to try and post something every day for the sake of trying to post so frequently.

    The five recent pillar articles have been downloaded for publication over 100 times in less than 30 days, and this is just for GoArticles. I periodically will submit similar articles to several of the more popular article directories.


    OK. You can "stop feeding your blogs" now, and you also can stop making endless comments on popular blogs, trying to get made a "Fav" on Technorati, and otherwise making the meter go up on metrics that have much ado about nothing when it comes to quality traffic.

    I think submitting to article directories will also create better traffic with better long-term and permanent links.

    11. A Cheap Way to Secure Any Domain Dot Com
    (Archive in Ecommerce SOHO Online Usability)

    Here is possibly a way to secure a domain name when you are in a hurry, and at the worst an extra free email account. You can use your own domain to create a personalized email address for you, a business, or anything else through an AOL service called My eAddress. You have up to 100 invites for others to get their own email address on your domain. The free service is called AOL My eAddress.

    Just a few comments and cautions from the TOS. You have to give out quite a bit of personal information, like a valid cell phone number in the US or Canada. Additionally, if you use the "Bring your Own Domain" option, you can use any hosting company you like while using free email service from AOL. However, if you choose the "Popular Custom Domain" option, you will be stuck with AOL as the administrator for the domain, so you will not be able to host a website at that domain.

    This could be a catch 22 for your future plans, so please read the "Terms of Service" carefully at AOL My eAddress.

    12. Planting Seeds with Pillar Articles
    (Archive in Ecommerce SOHO Weblogs and Business)

    Bouncing around the blogosphere, you may find that many of the well known bloggers are coming to the same conclusions that I already have. Get back to basics, don't worry about PR, Technorati, or Alexa ranking...and concentrate on traffic.

    For some people this still means spending horrific amounts of time networking and hitting the social network scene. I am more convinced that writing pillar articles for submission to article directories is a much better approach.

    This involves spending more time on research and organizing your thoughts far enough into the future to determine how you can approach a particular subject. You need to write for yourself, but you also need to write about things other people will have an interest in reading.

    In many ways this is much better than the prospect of having to write posts just for the sake of writing a post. I know at many times people get a writing block, or just get bored, or even fed up with the notion that they have to "feed the blog" (I think I just coined a useful phrase).

    Some of the additional rewards of pillar articles, is that your writing will be more involved and engaging, you will be building authority in one or more areas of personal interest or a niche, and you will be expanding your own knowledge base as you research and process information.

    Additionally, you will have a greater chance of having your articles republished elsewhere on blogs and mentioned in references in such a manner that they are permanently linked back to your blogs and websites. Go plant some seeds for future traffic building, and resist the urge to "Feed the Blog".

    13. Google Page Rank Drops Like A Rock for SEO Stars and Network Gamers
    (Archive in Ecommerce SOHO Weblogs and Business)

    The Death of Page Rank! Everyone is complaining about their PR, or Google Page Rank dropping. I say, "Get over it and move on". As I wrote in a recent post about traffic strategy, it is becoming more obvious all the time that all these ranking metrics really prove is nothing...unless you want to post and brag about how you make the meters move.

    Just like Technorati, or Alexa ranking, PR has little or nothing to do with traffic and successful marketing. Anything ill-gotten is just that, "ill-gotten". So, if you have spent months or years gaming the system, don't be surprised to see what your true worth might be in the Blogosphere and the Arpanet.

    Take a deep breath, get back to work...and try to learn how to add value to your online projects and for your readers and visitors. Like the book says "Do What You Love, and The Money Will Follow."

    I think that all this nonsense is amazing to the true online marketers that know how to push the buttons to make things really work. It once again boils down to Niche, Traffic, Monetization, with the actual "Product" bringing up the rear.

    Maybe backwards of how the analog world works, but after all it is a "Market of One" when it come to the Internet and online marketing. Build a better mouse trap and you will be found.

    Besides, you really can't toss rocks at Google for trying to plug holes in the dam by making the PR rank more honest. More fun for gamers, too, who just have a burning desire for shortcuts and beating the system.

    Now we can all look forward to posts on new theories, new techniques, new ebooks, new widgets, new podcasts, new videos, new ezines, new seminars, new gurus, and new yearly conventions. Page Rank is alive and well, it just no longer is what it had become.

    Apologies in advance for all the cliches. - Digital Nomad

    14. What Do Your Phone Numbers Spell?
    (Archived in: Social Media Marketing Related Miscellany)

    It's the middle of the weekend, so no heavy thought riddled posts today. Just some fun and games to let your mind roam a little. Maybe this should become a habitual weekend exercise to post about. Find something that is lighthearted, but still interesting and write a quick post about it.

    I have had this bookmarked for some time, and today finally tried out PhoneSpell.org. Oddly enough, my telephone number does not spell anything. What are the chances of that. I tried both 7-Digit and 10-Digit combinations. This is no joke. Mouseover and click to see larger in a new window.


    Oh well, give PhoneSpell a link up and see what you come up with for your numbers. It may give you an idea for a new blog or domain name, jog your memory for a new marketing approach, or just make you laugh. Maybe we can resurrect the notion of the "enum" network.

    Sometimes we just need some levity. While you are there, check out the Voice Nation link at the bottom, and help PhoneSpell pay some bills.

    15. Article Directory Submissions vs. Frequent Blog Posting to Drive Traffic
    (Archived in: Ecommerce SOHO Weblogs and Business)

    Are you lost in the blogosphere? Tired of posting and timestamps? I have been doing some experimenting with the different blogs that I write, including analysis and research about blogs versus websites. This has involved researching the current methods to create traffic, which everyone and their brother has rehashed in posts and how-to SEO ebooks and seminars.

    You know, like leaving comments on blogs, posting frequently, writing interesting posts, viral contests, linkbating, joining social networks, etc. These all do work. The caveat is that if you are using some of the monetization schemes that everyone writes about, you first have to have a presence with regard to a Techorati rank, and Alexa rank, or both to get in the game.

    The long and the short is that both of these ranking systems have little to do with making money in my mind. I personally have no interest in PPP, PPC, PPA, or any of the advertising schemes that require tons of time and effort. It is a double edge razor blade in my opinion, because you have to spend an unbelievable amount of time socializing and creating backlinks. It also is why bloggers burn out fast.

    Technorati is notoriously bad for not sending traffic. And get this...everyone that measures traffic knows that bloggers don't click on ads or text links. So what is the point of pandering to other bloggers in the blogosphere to get their traffic. Even Darren Rowse has recently admitted that Adsense income was no longer worth cluttering his Problogger blog up with ads.

    I can almost guarantee that if you spend much of your time in forums and social networks to gain popularity, you will have little to show for it except some nice ranks and bragging rights. All this indicates that it's time to get back to the idea of selling a niche product or service (a real product that fills a need) using a static website and driving traffic to that website. That is what online marketing is about. By best accounts, only a few dozen bloggers make a full time living out of 100 million blogs. Not a very good business model if you ask me.

    A good Technorati and Alexa rank may be giving you the illusion that you are successful. The same is true for frequent posting. I have deliberately cut back on posting to see what would happen. You guessed it...Technorati and Alexa ranks drop like a rock, and very quickly. The effort to maintain your rankings is an endless nightmare of posts to blogs, and posting comments to social networks and forums. It is like being a shark, stop swimming and you die.

    I am beginning to think a better approach is to use your blogging as part of a network traffic strategy to create desirable traffic. I also am going back to writing "pillar articles" for article directory submission. These end up as permanent links and keep on giving for years to come.

    There are only four things that matter in online marketing, and they are in this order of importance:

    1. Niche
    2. Traffic
    3. Monetization
    4. Product

    Notice that the product is the least important thing. Unless, you just write for kicks or the truly original purpose of blogging...to keep a journal, my money is on investing time online that will produce recurring revenue and better return on your investment of both time and money.

    16. Consider Buying A Rugged Laptop
    Author: John Smith

    If You Work in Difficult Conditions, Then A Rugged Laptop
    May Be Just What the Doctor Ordered


    Rugged laptops are not cheap, you may know that already since you are interested in them. And they also don't come with the same configuration as the other commercial laptops you may be used to. What you get instead with a rugged laptop, is the possibility and flexibility to work in a lot of tough locations on difficult weather. That is the real value of a rugged laptop, value that earns all the money you may have paid for it.

    If you work in a place where you find one of the below listed conditions, then you should really consider buying a rugged laptop:

    Liquid All Over (including on your rugged laptop)

    Rugged laptops have sealed keyboards that won't let the water or any other liquid to seep inside. Also, the ports that you will find on a ruggedized laptop are usually protected by efficient covers that keep the liquid away from connectors so you won't experience any unpleasant situations in wet environments.

    Strong and Persistent Vibrations

    Rugged laptops were designed with this issue in mind, they have strong components, a hard drive that resists to strong vibrations, things that commercial laptops don't do. Put a normal laptop in a vibrating environment and you may have the surprise of loosing data. Not with a rugged laptop.

    They are also tested for...

    Drops, Drops, Drops

    During a work day you may drop your rugged laptop more than once. You should know that all the components inside it are strong and tested to withstand a strong impact: CPU, hard drive, optical devices, etc. The rugged laptop case is also strong not easy to break.

    Electromagnetic Fields

    Commercial notebooks won't perform well near an electromagnetic area such as radio transmissions, power generators, etc. A rugged laptop was actually designed to work in such environments, environments where commercial notebooks may actually stop working.

    17. Understanding SOHO Shoutouts
    (Archived in: Shoutouts Social Media Marketing)

    Do you have a list of bloggers you like and want to recognize? This is what my Saturday Shoutouts project is all about.

    This is where I give people a mini review as a mention in a weekly post, and then Stumble, Netscape, use other bookmarks, and write a few comments to their blog posts.

    This week will be fairly brief with four bloggers instead of the targeted five blogs I attempt to call out each Saturday afternoon. Charlene is recognizing Breast Cancer Awareness Month by doing a pink overhaul at her Casual Keystrokes blog. Scott is happy to be an S.O.B. at Finding Your Marbles (great name for a blog). Then David points out the marketing value of YouTube in a post on Social Media Optimization, and there is Ilker at The Thinking Blog, who is always thinking for us.

    Leave a comment and let me know what you are up to with your blogging efforts.

    18. Review of SOHO Phone Guide
    (Archived in: Ecommerce SOHO Online Usability)

    Doing a recent search on "SOHO", the obvious acronym for Small Office/Home Office (assuming that you are not from New York City), I came across this website for the SOHO Phone Guide.

    It is a good example of "soft selling" and using what looks like a free consumer information guide to steer readers to a commercial enterprise. In this case, a shameless plug for Onebox. In my early marketing days before the days of the Internet, this may have also been referred to as an advertorial. A thinly disguised attempt at making an advertisement look like editorial content.

    In this case the marketing message may be useful for those that are lazy, or perhaps less adept a putting some of the free online telephony solutions together for use in there small business adventures.

    I was a Onebox early adopter when it first came online, and prior to it becoming a paid service. All-in-all, still a good option for those willing to pay a monthly fee for unified messaging and a one number follow-me type telephone service.
