SOHO

SoHo is a neighborhood in the New York City borough of Manhattan. Originally associated with the arts, it has since become famous for both destination shopping and its downtown scene. The name is a blend of "South" and "Houston" from "south of Houston Street" and has no relation to the district called Soho in London, England. Its name is the model for other new neighborhood acronyms in New York City, such as TriBeCa (Triangle Below Canal Street) and DUMBO, Brooklyn (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass). Before its incarnation as a trendy locale, it was known as the Cast Iron District because of the many buildings incorporating cast iron architectural elements...

2. IGSDT: Consistency

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!

6. Trivita

Trivita: New Trivita Cooperative Marketing Informational Forum

Today marks a new event in the culmination of building a successful business using the Trivita business model. Trivita is committed to excellence in marketing and products. These forums will inform, inspire and give valuable knowledge.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release - http://www.prlog.org/10138848-trivita-new-trivita-cooperative-marketing-informational-forum.html )

Nov 09, 2008

Forums which are designed to inform, are among the most reliable sources of information found on the search engine of Google. A well constructed, and highly active forum, can be the most effective part of telling the true story concerning an online business. The two forums listed in this press release, have been designed by SEO Master, Butch Hamilton. Mr. Hamilton spends an incredible amount of time in operating a very effective SEO business, and also being a Trivita Director as well. His ultimate goal is to tell others about the possibilities of building a substantial and long term business using the Trivita model for success.

Trivita, while somewhat similar to MLM businesses, differs from the usual run of the mill network marketing business. Michal Ellison, the CEO and founder of Trivita, knows that building solid businesses requires time, effort, dedication and the ultimate goal should be for long term investing, rather than short term gain. Trivita is the perfect business model for professionals looking to find a stable project to become involved with.

Visit the newest of the Trivita Forums by Clicking this website address: http://trivitahealth.org

Within the Trivita realm of business, customers can be purchased to build a business. This is not seen by any other multi-level marketing company. As a matter of fact, Trivita products can be purchased directly from the corporate headquarters. No other MLM company can make this type of claim. In the area of buying customers, Trivita sells Business Affiliates from its huge database of customers for the price of $50 each. When that paying customer buys product, then commissions will be made by the business affiliate. There are many organizations within Trivita, but among the most successful groups seen in the last few years, has been headed by Mr. Tom Prendergast, the CEO and Founder of Veretekk. The ItsGoodBusiness.net business model, is consistently making new Business Affiliates, 1, 2, 3 and 4 Star BA's, and Trivita Directors as well.

Trivita and ItsGoodBusiness.net works hand in hand to inform, motivate, educate and instruct people on exactly how to run a successful business on Google. This added feature is of apparent value for people wishing to join the Trivita family of home business owners.

The second of the informational forums designed can be found by clicking on this web address: http://trivitasite.com/trivitacooperativemarketingforum/ ...

These Trivita Forums will serve as the informational headquarters for people looking to become involved with a successful network marketing business. Trivita is among the most stable business models for long term investment potentials.

7. MLM: IGSDT

Another article in a series called IGSDT, concerning multilevel marketing, and the reasons that most people will simply not be able to make money from an online business. Why is the failure rate (95%) so high in MLM marketing? There are a variety of reasons for this, and I will share with you, my personal perspectives on some of the most prevalent ones.

Excitement

Ok, so you have just joined yet another greatest pre-launch business on Google. You have listened to the guru leaders of the organization closely, and you have fallen for their excited attitudes concerning your money making potential with this or that, company. They have told you the earning potentials, and now, you are ready to begin a new life, and new project and are fully dedicated to building your business into a wealth creating system that will make you money with very little effort on your part. You simply do what they do, and you will make money!

This is part of the MLM business that sickens me. You see, you have not the sphere of influence that these leaders have. They may have tens of thousands of people within their database to contact about their latest widget find. The can send out emails, or get in touch with their strong downlines, and be able to bring many people into the organization, with just a simple wave of their magic MLM wand.

So, where does this leave you? You are just one man, or woman, who wants to be involved with some type of home business. You have read (you think) about this company, and you fully believe every word that you powerful upline sponsor is telling you about YOUR ability to make money. You are so enthused and excited about the possibilities, that you fail to understand that you are already involved in the business, but really have NO clear cut way to knowing exactly how to promote that business. In other words, your EXCITEMENT is the cause of the problem right from the startup.

Know this one thing. That site they have handed you, or most likely sold to you, is nothing more than a piece of digital trash. In other words, it is NOT going to be promotable on the search engines. The spiders of Google will see this site as a blank sheet of paper. The leaders will tell you what a great and appealing marketing site it is, but in essence, it is simply not.

Your excitement has already led you into believing that other people will need to join your business, because it is so new, so revolutionary, and so well thought out, that you know that your friends and family will have to join it. This is the kiss of death thinking that will lead you to understand that in the months to come, NO ONE cares. Your lack of understanding these few essential fact based essentials in this area, will eventually lead you to having NO success in your chosen greatest home business. You will begin to develop that gnawing in the pit of your stomach, that you have chosen the wrong business for you.

Focus

This will be the next in this series concerning the failure rate in the home business and MLM marketing. If you want to learn more, visit the website below, to under learn what IGSDT really stands for.

8. IGSDT

IGSDT

How many times have you procrastinated, or simply failed to recognize opportunities that really could earn you money? How much time have you wasted just today, on worthless and time draining tasks, that absolutely were not effective, and did not do one thing to help either your financial situation, or your life in general? How many times were you going to make a positive move, but at the first sign of resistance, you simply let that fear take your life over, and did nothing about it all? How many times have you sat and asked yourself, is there really a way to make money on the Internet the right way? How many times have you been your own worst enemy and let either yourself, or someone close to you, thwart your dreams and goals of some type of success? How many times have you gotten involved with the wrong type of business on Google, and just wasted your valuable time? How much money have you wasted in striving to make money from a home business?

I have just one question more to ask you.

Are you ready to change all that?

I designed my new website http://igsdt.com just for you, if you are the one reading this presentation, and are faced with challenges. Maybe your health needs improving. Maybe you have pain and suffering each and every hour of the day, and simply cannot find comfort from anything that you do. Maybe you have been burned online by some guru telling you how much money they are making, and you can do the same thing. Maybe you have been down the long road of hurts, disappointments, broken dreams and failed businesses that should have worked, but just did not.

Stop and ask yourself some serious questions today. Did that business really fail you, or did you fail that business? After all, ANY business that you choose to become part of takes time, patience, education, a never say quit attitude and a willingness to learn the actual ways to build that business. No matter what you may have heard before about Google, there is loads of misconceptions and lies to deal with.

There are people promoting online today that are nothing more than liars and scam artists. They will take your money, most of your money, or all of your money, and promise you the moon, but they cannot deliver even dirt.

IGSDT (I GET STUFF DONE TODAY) is designed for you. The broken, the failed, the forgotten, the helpless and the hopeless. I know the feeling, as I have been there, and done that as well. I know your pain about living and life, and I am here to tell you the story of how you can regain your dignity, and increase your self-worth, only IF...YOU GET STARTED TODAY!!!

I am NOT here to sell you anything at all. I am here to tell you a story about life andliving fully, and effectively, each and every second that you have on this planet. I learned the technique of living fully, after losing my life over 10 years ago. I know the pain, the agony and the suffering that is involved with just getting by and I am here to tell you that there is a way...if you can only GET OUT OF YOUR OWN WAY!

You can learn the art of business building on the net. I will NOT be simple, easy and you will NOT get rich quick. I can share with you, my proven techniques of building an effective business, and how to live a more fruitful and abundant life. I am not a sideshow barker, or even a wealthy individual. But I can tell you that I can gain recognition for my websites on Google by using proven techniques and strategies.

I can also tell you the ways that I have learned to make money the right way on the Internet. Now, if you are the one that I am looking for, you have probably been down the path to NO SUCCESS, NO MONEY, NO FUN and the dread of working yet another job, has you scared to death. Hey, no problem there either. I spent the biggest part of my life STUCK in something that I did not want, but felt that I had to do, to provide for my family.

You see, the family is all you have. Whether you have sons, daughters or precious grandchildren, I learned much after the death of our 17 year old son, the importance of spending your quality time doing things with them, instead of wasting your time on the trivialities of life, that mean absolutely nothing.

Butch Hamilton, noted SEO Master, GETS STUFF DONE TODAY! I am willing to show you, YES YOU, the proven techniques that I have developed to do exactly the same thing. If you are fearful to pick that phone up and call me, its ok, I totally understand. BUT, as you can see, I DO use my real phone number on each article that I write, I have no fear in this life at all. I am willing to do, what it takes, to become successful doing something that I love to do.

If you choose to join me in the quest, then great. If you do not, that is great as well. I will still be using my proven strategies to build my successful business, as long as I have the breath in this body to do just that. I will let NOTHING, and NO ONE, stand in my way of ultimate success, and you can learn to develop this talent as well.

I look forward to speaking with you soon, should you have the courage and fortitude to change your circumstances, and your life the for better.

9. SOHO (Small Office Home Office) Domains

What Is In a Domain Name?

The domain name is the storefront for a business on Google. Thinking in those terms, its important to have an appealing and clean storefront, but more importantly, its necessary to have the elements needed in producing an adequate storefront to tell others about the business being promoted.

The domain name is the most important element in promoting a site on Google. It all begins with the proper selection of that keyword chosen and then putting together in harmony and balance, the perfect marketing website in which to make sales.

If the storefront is cluttered and unmanageable, then obviously people are not going to visit the store. It would be much the same case in real life. Would you walk into a store that was cluttered, unorganized and dirty? Of course not. This is exactly the same thinking that goes into building an appealing website for promoting on Google, Yahoo, MSN, WindowsLive and all the other major search engines.

You obviously are drawn to clean, crisp content, that gets straight to the point in talking about the business being promoted. This is why Domains-Free-Hosting.com should appeal to the professional online business professional.

Purchasing domains is simple, easy and safe thanks to the 256-bit security on each purchase made at Domains-Free-Hosting.com The site can usually be up and running very quickly, as this is vitally important to online marketing success.

Visit http://domains-free-hosting.net today, and get involved with the top level domain and hosting company found on Google today.

In answer to the question what is in a domain name? Your business demeanor and presence. Choose wisely your domain hosting company for maximum results.

10. SOHO (Small Office Home Office) Domains

Domains-Free-Hosting.com: Domains for Internet Professionals

Demands are steadily increasing for top level domains and hosting organizations. Professional online marketers need the best tools in order to obtain top positions on Google.

http://domains-free-hosting.com

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release - http://www.prlog.org/10133183-domains-free-hostingcom-domains-for-internet-professionals.html )

Oct 26, 2008

Network marketing is a competitive business. Entrepreneurs are steadily on the increase in this high demand and lucrative business on Google. Professional tools are needed when attempting to gain traffic, visitors and search engine rankings for high traffic keyword areas. Domains-Free-Hosting.com meets those demands, and more, with the best possible domain solutions. Domain purchasing should be a safe and seamless operation. Once keyword research is accomplished, then setting about the task of creating search engine friendly sites for promoting is the next piece of the puzzle.

Domains-Free-Hosting.com meets this rising need with systems in place that allow the fast selection of critical high traffic domains, then purchasing by using either PayPal, or any major credit card. The trustworthy payment system has the most advanced safety features to assure the rapid transaction, and setup of those domains. Once the purchase has been approved, notification will take place within minutes that the domain is ready for propagation. Though the site gives clear indications that setup will normally occur within 24-48 hours, usually it is much quicker which allows for the full creative process to begin to unfold for the serious business professional to add content to the pre-designed website tonight templates, or to host their own, for web promotion.

Up time for domain hosting companies is another area which should be closely viewed. Domains-Free-Hosting.com has a proven track record of 99% up time for the websites produced. This is also another reason to only choose the very best when promoting goods and services online. In case a rare problem does arise, help is only a phone call away 24/7 worldwide for the domains, hosting, pop3 email accounts and all services provided by Domains-Free-Hosting.com.

The courteous and highly trained customer support staff are noted for their fast reply to incoming calls, and getting issues resolved in the best possible manner. This is another critical element in domains and hosting. Communication from most domain and hosting company is back office trouble tickets. As anyone marketing online knows, the downtime and wait for responses from those types of services are frustrating, and will remove revenue while the problem is being discussed back and forth via email. This will not happen when domains and hosting are purchased from Domains-Free-Hosting.com.

All available domain names can be purchased from .COMS to any available overseas domain available.

11. SOHO (Small Office Home Office) Domains

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

9. Thinking Blog Celebrates First Year with A Free Laptop Giveaway
(Archived in: Shoutouts Social Media Marketing)

The giveaway rules from Ilker state, "To enter our giveaway, all you have to do is write about it in your blog. Ensure you have two links on your blog post, one link with rugged related keywords to RuffPC.com (e.g. "rugged computer", "water resistant laptop", "spill proof notebook", and the likes) and another link to this giveaway post."

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.

What are your thoughts or experience?

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.

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.

(Archived in: Shoutouts Social Media Marketing)

Once again time to acknowledge new friends and blogs worthy of note and interest. As is the new twist, you should get 3-4 extra links from being mentioned in my Saturday Shoutouts. Not sure why, but Shoutwire was being obstinate last week. That bookmark has been replaced with a bonus link. You also get a few comment or two on your blog and another Stumble for being picked.

This week we have Patrick from Top Secret Blogger and advice about staying on topic, John the Cow man is proud of his new look at John Cow Dot Com, and thoughtful design with Dawud at DawudMiracle. Round it out with what's up about music and cats at Wtfzup, plus Wendy at the new eMoms at Home (and Dads with Dawud again).

20. TokBox Alternatives to Video Messaging
(Archived in: Online Usability Technology in Plain English)

Here are a few other online Video Messaging systems I should have mentioned in my last post about TokBox. Everyone that uses the tried and true Skype will know that they have video capability. Other contenders are OoVoo.com, Yahoo Messenger, AIM, and many others I don't care to mention or promote.

Festoon,Inc. had a plug-in for video chat that supposedly worked with both Skype and Google Talk, but the free download is no longer available (website www.festooninc.com domain expired 8-30-07) .

The best of the lot is said to be SightSpeed. Below are two promotional screenshots from the Skype and SightSpeed websites to give you an idea if what to expect.

Sorry to say that I am behind on my testing, and hope to report my personal findings in the near future. No doubt that as telephones and computers continue to converge there will be more "Talk-and-See" options, just like predicted in the Dick Tracy comics and Flash Gordon movies from the 1930s.

21. TOK While You Chat and Alternative Talk Online with TokBox
(Archived in: Online Usability Technology in Plain English)

This was noted on Jimmy Huen's Blog some time ago last month, and I must admit I was intrigued. Also a little bit embarrassed as I did not have a video camera to test it out. I finally ran out and bought a camera (still in the box).

I do fancy free or near free telephony and communication solutions, and probably will end up building my own private network one way or another. The idea of video chat will certainly figure into those plans. I want to be able to at least have this capability with a rugged laptop and some wireless solutions when on the road.

I still have not had a chance to test TOKBOX, but wanted to at least post about it, and then I can come back and do an update. Michael Arrington at TechCrunch also has said some nice things about it.

"While there are plenty of video chat products out there on the market, including Skype, most of them require at least some software download to the computer. Something about the simplicity of TokBox, which is entirely a web application, suggests it might get very popular very fast."

Well not quite everything. I had not updated this blog since sometime in August until today. In the process of checking my stats on Technorati I came across this anomaly.

As you can see from these screenshots taken today, I have two Technorayi scores. One says that this blog is in the Top 10K with a rank of 7,680, and the other screenshot shows this blog ranked at nearly twice that number with a rank 14,659. This descrepency occurs by clicking on different links within the Technorati UI.

I actually discovered something was wrong when I was checking the stats for JaKelDaily.com. I usually make the top comments there each month, and keep tabs on Jason. I new something was awry, because Technorati shows Jason's blog with an authority of "1" (-1-) and a rank of 3,915,745. Statistic that keep getting worse instead of better.

Many people get bent out of shape over Technorati stats and the ranking system, and for some good reasons. This is why I have in the past called Technorati the Illuminati of the Blogosphere.

Very mysterious, very secret...and probably part of a worldwide blog conspiracy. Just joking! This has to be part of an update glitch. Let me know your thoughts, and if you have had similar experiences.
