Internet Marketing Explained
For the last 12 years, there has been one person who has grown his online business into a multi-million dollar empire. Now, before you roll your eyes and shout out "who cares", let me share this with you.
He hasn't accomplished this because of some "secret strategy". He hasn't done it because he's a "technical whiz" or some famous writer. And he certainly hasn't done this trying every new strategy that someone claims to be the "next big thing".
So what is his "secret" to success? Well actually it's no secret at all. In fact, he calls it the "Obvious Truth". http://dld.bz/cFytr

Google Wants to Help You Share Your Stuff: Tech Blog Rumors
Unofficial Google News Blog Google Operating System (Technorati Top 100 Technology and InfoTech) has reported that the search and web tool giant is working on a new web application to allow us to catalog our personal belongings.
For the more altruistic of us, the service, simply called Google Mine, is said to have the ability to allow us to share our personal belongings with others we've connected with online.
Leveraging the power of their socialized toolbox Plus, Google is said to be interested in beta testing the service in San Francisco.
From Engadget, Google Mine service reportedly leaked, lets Google+ friends share real goods
From Gizmodo , Apparently Google is internally testing a service called "Google Mine" …
Via AndroidCommunity, Google Mine: an unannounced place to catalog and collect things
Even WebProNews has weighed in, with http://www.webpronews.com/google-tests-google-mine-app-internally-report-2013-06
It would be interesting to see how this works following a natural disaster, and people are trying to get back on their feet following a loss of belongings...
What are your thoughts? Many of us might like the idea of cataloging the more expensive of our personal items, for insurance purposes, but are you willing to put up things you own for others to lay dibs on, at least for a time? After all, it's hard enough to get borrowed items back from the neighbor...

How to Integrate Social Media With Your SEO Campaign
Like many things in life, certain SEO tactics will fade into oblivion as Google Penguin matures. This has left many people who used to practice the art of SEO wondering where to go.
The good news is that while certain SEO tactics may be under the gun and likely to fail in months to come (if they haven't already), other tactics are destined to succeed, impervious to algorithmic changes. Many people believe that search marketing integration, or SMI, is one of these. Some people have even gone as far as to say publicly that SMI will be required to rank on the first page of Google in the future.
What is Search Marketing Integration?
Search marketing integration uses traditional SEO but also combines social media marketing. In the past, many people just worked on getting inbound links; now we're seeing social media playing a growing role. This makes sense since both of these methods should be about creating quality content, building trust, and establishing your brand.
In addition to regular backlinks, SMI integrates social media sites like Facebook, Google+, Twitter, LinkedIn, and others. Search engines have started using retweets, Facebook likes, and Google +1s, to help determine organic search rankings. Since Google has already shown that they will reward sites with good social signals, integrating them into your marketing plan is important; not only now, but even more as the industry (and Google's algorithms) continue to progress.
Who do you Follow?
In the past, many people tried to game the system by getting as many followers as possible. In some cases, they even bought followers because it increased their numbers. Now there is growing evidence that Google and the other search engines are looking at not only who you follow but also who follows you. Google has indicated that as they continue to refine their algorithms, they will soon be able to tell who is influential in a given area partially by their social media profiles. Once they do this, one influential follower will be much more valuable than lots of unknown ones.
Branding
While we're on the subject of using social media, it seems like a great time to bring up branding. Social media accounts like Twitter and Facebook can be a wonderful way to establish your brand. However, we still see too many people abusing social media by constantly promoting their products. The "push" mentality needs to stop; those days are over.
It's the quickest way to get unliked, unfollowed, and untrusted. If you want to build your brand and establish trust, you're going to need to take the time to provide quality information and help your customers. I've observed that, somewhere along the way, many people have forgotten that.
Good branding and social media interaction comes through engagement with your target audience. Rather than just posting links to your newest blog articles, ask stimulating, thought-provoking, and discussion-sparking questions. Start polls, host interactive webinars, and respond to blog comments. Do whatever it takes to humanize your brand, make it organic, and make it likeable.
Becoming a Thought Leader
"Thought leadership" may be an overused buzzword, but as the popularity of content marketing continues to become more pervasive, thought leadership is going to continue to grow in importance. To put it simply, becoming a thought leader is really about being an authority by having the answers that are relevant to your niche. When you boil it down even more, it's really about knowing your niche and helping people by giving out your knowledge. Social media can be an easy way to do this.
Discover the questions and answers that really matter to your customer. These can be found on forums, Q&A sites like Yahoo answers, LinkedIn groups, and others. Once you have identified them, answer those questions on your website or social media pages. Odds are good, if you pick the right questions, and provide solid answers, other people will want to know the answers as well.
Sometimes it can even be a good idea to let your customers participate. By communicating and interviewing your customers, you can find the problems that are hindering them and publish content with the answers.
Integrating Traditional SEO and Social Media
Regardless of how many people declare that SEO is dead, traditional backlinks still hold some influence, when acquired correctly. It used to be that using low-quality, spun content and automated tools to build links was a popular link building solution. However, those days are long gone; the concept and practice of content marketing has taken link building in an entirely different direction.
What if you could write one article and have thousands of people read it, and acquire dozens or hundreds of inbound links from it? Let's imagine this scenario. What if you successfully scored a guest posting opportunity and posted one well-researched, though-provoking article to a publisher with thousands of visitors per day? I'm talking about the type of publisher that will only publish exquisite content. After reading the article, many people are intrigued by what you have to say, but still not familiar with you (the author). Two days later, you publish another popular article on the same website. It engages the readers and leaves them wanting to learn even more from you.
At this point, they may recognize your name and realize that you are writing a series. The next day, the third article in the series is released. By this point, you've had an opportunity to build trust with the reader. You've established yourself as a thought leader with enough knowledge in the area to write an entire series of articles on the subject.
Guest posting can be very powerful if executed properly. While there is a lot of benefit to receiving one link from one article, there is much more benefit to be had by posting a series. By being in front of readers for multiple days on the right high traffic site, you get more opportunities to establish trust, build your brand image and recognition, and bring traffic to your site as a result.
Google Authorship
While you are writing that incredible content, don't forget to set up Google Authorship for each article. By doing this, you're telling Google that you wrote the content and are establishing a reputation with Google as being an expert in your area. This will also help build your Author Rank, leading to improved rankings for the content you author, along with recognition and visibility as an authority in your niche.
Maintaining your Social Presence
After setting up Google authorship, don't forget to link to your newly written content from your social media pages (Facebook, Twitter, etc.). This gives you a great excuse to promote quality links and helps you maintain your social media presence. Don't forget, this isn't just about you. It is important to share other people's work as well.
What About Your Site?
Once you've added that content to your site that makes people want to read and share with their friends, it's important that you allow them to easily share your content. If you use WordPress, it's very easy; there are many plugins that will let you easily add social media buttons to your site. Personally, I like this one. For non-Wordpress sites, you can add code to your site so the social buttons will be added to each page.
Many authority sites have recently started adding valuable quotes with tweet buttons into their posts. This makes it easy for a person to click the link while they are reading your engaging content and share it with their friends. If your site has high traffic volume, it may be difficult for users to share your content as the server load grows. This can also become an issue when content goes viral (the holy grail of online marketing campaigns), or hits the first page of Reddit. If you're going to really focus on your social media campaign, consider CDN hosting rather than traditional hosting; it prevents problems before they can happen.
Conclusion
Integrating social media with your SEO isn't difficult. It all starts with a good content strategy, which coordinates your marketing and content efforts into one cohesive plan, and is supported by engaging your social media audiences rather than only pushing your content on them. This knowledge, along with easy social sharing options on your website, will foster a social media following that will not only support your SEO campaign, but become brand ambassadors themselves.

Facebook Adds Video Clips to Instagram App
Users of Facebook's photo-sharing
app, Instagram, will now be able to take videos as well as still photographs,
the social network has announced.Users will also be able to add the distinctive filters that epitomise Instagram photographs.
The app will vie with Twitter's Vine, which also lets users share video.
The Instagram update will allow iPhone and Android users to record and stitch together their clips to form a "collage", which can then have one of 13 customisable filters applied to them.
These can make the clips black-and-white, add a blur-effect or otherwise alter the footage.
In addition, iPhone users are offered a "cinema" facility, which stabilises the clips to counteract camera shake.
"Fifteen seconds of video [is] the right balance between not-too-short that constrains your creativity and not-too-long where you end up having to wait a lot of time for something to download," said Mr Systrom.
The time limit is more than double that offered by Vine's six-second clip service.
Other differences include the fact that Instagram's videos do not loop, and that its users can choose their thumbnail images.
Vine is expected to announce new features of its own over the coming days after its co-founders uploaded a series of clips teasing an update.
Rivalling YouTube
Facebook acquired Instagram last year for more than
$700m (£450m).
Mr Systrom said the service was currently used by 130 million people a month
and that 16 billion photos had been shared on it. In May, market analysts at comScore said Facebook was now also the second biggest US online video site, beaten only by YouTube.
"Mobile and video are going to be key to Facebook going forward," said Ovum analyst Eden Zoller.
"Launching video for Instagram is a logical next step. The only surprising thing is that it didn't do it sooner."
But, she added, Facebook would be under close scrutiny.
"It has had some launches recently, like Facebook Home, that have been done with great fanfare but don't seem to have made a huge impact. Whatever it does with video, it will have to do well."
Brian Blau, an analyst at tech consultants Gartner, noted that Instagram was not the first to offer video filters, but predicted the facility would prove popular.
"The question will be: Are filters enough?" he added. "I don't necessarily think so. There are other elements to post-production, such as adding titles or improving lighting, that may be more useful."
Micro-video services compared | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Service | Platform | Clip length | Description |
Vine |
iOS and Android | Six seconds | Bought out by Twitter last year, Vine's main selling point is its close integration with the micro-blogging site, as well as an innovative tap-and-hold recording interface. |
Flickr |
iOS, Android, Windows Phone, Blackberry, mobile web | 90 seconds | Flickr did short video before it was cool - but having dropped the functionality from its recently revamped mobile apps. It does not seem to be a priority for the Yahoo-owned photography site. |
Tout |
iOS and Android | 15 seconds | Tout offers access to a stream of recently uploaded clips, but its strategy focuses on promoting "channels" - content posted by users working for or otherwise associated with specific brands. Wrestling promoter WWE, the Wall Street Journal, the BBC and shoe firm Zappos are all involved. |
Instagram |
iOS and Android | 15 seconds |
The photo app soared to popularity thanks to its good-looking filters. Now,
and under the ownership of Facebook, Instagram is looking to apply the same
filtering ideas to video. |

Celebrating 10 Years of Shared Success
Ten years ago we launched AdSense to help publishers earn money by placing relevant ads on their websites. I can still remember the excitement and anticipation as AdSense went live that first day.
Our small team huddled together in a cramped conference room, and right away we saw that publishers were as excited about AdSense as we were.
Fast-forward 10 years, and AdSense has become a core part of Google’s advertising business. The AdSense community has grown to include more than 2 million publishers, and last year alone, publishers earned more than $7 billion from AdSense. AdSense is a community that thrives because of all the content creators we are so fortunate to partner with. Their stories inspire us to do our part to make AdSense great.
On this occasion, it’s especially inspiring to hear the stories of partners who have been with us since the very beginning—like a retiree in New Zealand who was able to pursue her dream of writing about her garden, a tech support expert in Colorado who can spend more time with his kids, and a theme park reviewer who now sends employees around the world to test and review rides—all thanks to money earned from AdSense.
As part of our 10th anniversary celebration, we hope you’ll tune into our live Hangout on Air today at 10 a.m. PDT (5 p.m. GMT) on the AdSense Google+ page. I look forward to joining several of our partners to share stories from the early days of AdSense, talk about how we’ve all grown since then, and discuss the future for publishers and online advertising. And if you want even more 10th anniversary celebration, just visit our AdSense 10th anniversary page at any time.

The Hottest Niche On The Web…(PLR Available!)
I just saw a shocking video, with some jaw-dropping statistics from my good friend.
Wait till you see how much money this online niche is generating:
I've certainly seen this niche before (you probably have too), but I had no idea just how big it really is. I also had no idea how much profit these guys are raking in.

HOMERUN COPYWRITING VIDEO COURSE - 5 HOURS OF VIDEO TRAINING
Does your sales copy suck? I mean, does it really, really suck so bad that you can barely squeeze out a sale from 1000 visitors to your website and you just can’t figure out why?
Obviously The First Thing You Need To Do is… Stop Wasting Time Trying To "Figure Out" Things On Your Own Because, I already know that from experience, it's impossible to just "figure out"...
I am sure this is the case but don’t worry – this is why you’re here, and I’m happy to tell you that your problems can be fixed, and you came to the right place to get them fixed…
First of all, let’s talk about the extreme importance of good sales copy…
Let’s say you have a £97 product and a decent sales letter up on your website that converts visitors to buyers at 1%.
Let’s also say that you drive 3000 unique visits to your website a month, so at 1% you would be making $2910 (minus advertising costs and expenses).
That’s not bad! But after a while you get bored with that number and decide you want to double your income. Now there’s three ways you can do that:
1. You can double the price of your product from £97 to £194 (this will probably kill your 1% conversion and your overall profits would drop)
2. You could try driving double the traffic to your website and see what happens (this is not always easy, as traffic does not come on demand – it can also be a costly choice)
3. Or, you could work on improving your sales copy and increase your conversion rate to 2% (if you have a good product this is a very possible) Just imagine what you could do with the cash from more sales! Think of how great it will feel when the family wants to go out to eat and you don’t have to tell them that going out to eat is not in the budget!
That is how powerful good sales copy is.
Just by tweaking and improving your sales letter you can go from:
3000 visitors a month with a £97 product converting at 1% for a total of £2910 in sales to:
3000 visitors a month with a £97 product converting at 2% for a total of £5820 in sales!
Just by tweaking and improving your sales letter you can go from:
3000 visitors a month with a £97 product converting at 1% for a total of £2910 in sales to:
3000 visitors a month with a £97 product converting at 2% for a total of £5820 in sales!

5 Tips For Getting The Most Out Of Twitter
Twitter is one of the most visited websites in the world. It's also one of the most misunderstood because it's different from many of the websites available where you can market. If you understand how to market on Twitter though, you can drive a ton of traffic to your website, build your brand, and make more money. Below are five tips that will help you get more from Twitter:
1. Create a username that brands your business.
In my case, I use my name. It's because I'm an author, and I want others to identify my name with my work. You may want to use the name of your business. Whatever you use, make sure you use something that relates to your business and will help others remember who you are.
2. Build an effective profile.
There are several things you may do to make your profile more effective. First, you may consider adding a custom background. This allows you to add more information about your business. The profile functions on Twitter are quite limited because you only have about 160 characters available for your description and a link to your website. With a custom background, you can add information about your social profiles, as well as anything else you want. Write a description that includes your keyword as well as including a link to your site.
3. Follow those in your industry.
If you want to connect with the top people in your industry, then follow them. If you start following them, they may just follow you. Follow as many people in your industry as you can. This will allow you to connect with people in your industry and build your following. Building a following is hard work, so get out there and do it. Use your other social sites to help you find those to connect to.
4. Engage your audience.
You don't want to constantly write about your business. That's boring. Get personal and invite your followers into your life too. You don't want to be too personal, but try and write about different things. Get your audience to pay attention to what you are saying. If others are following you, you can share their posts, as well as comment. Really connect with your readers.
5. Avoid automation.
Although you may want to automate your blog posts, which is fine, you don't want to automate all of your posts. Make it a point to post content yourself at regular intervals. Read what others are writing and see what tweets others are engaging on. This will help you figure out what type of content to post, again, so you can engage your readers.
Twitter can be an effective way to market your business if you use it correctly. Take the time to learn how to use it, and you can build a tremendous amount of traffic and sales to your business.

8 Simple Internet Marketing Strategies for Promoting Your Blog
If you want to build a business on the internet, a blog is essential. It's one of the best public relations tools you can create because it allows you to connect with your audience. What I like the most about it is that you can automate much of the promotion, and so you can spend your time connecting with your audience, as well as writing great content. When you build your blog, follow these strategies to start getting traffic quickly.
1. Generate a sitemap and submit to the major search engines.
There are only two search engines to concern yourself with: Google and Bing. Bing drives the results for Yahoo, so this will give you about 80 percent coverage in the search engines. If you use a plugin like SEO by Yoast (it's what I use), then you can automatically generate a sitemap and then submit it. This is a one time task. After that, monitor your sitemap looking for broken links, as well as to find out how much of your content has been indexed.
2. Submit to blog and RSS directories.
Robin Good offers an excellent list that is constantly updated. Submit your blog to all the sites on the lists so that blog readers can find your content. When you post to your blog, it will automatically update these sites and can drive traffic for you.
3. Comment on other blogs in your topic.
Although blog comments don't carry as much weight as a linking strategy, don't ignore this. Blog commenting, like other forms of marketing, is about connecting with your audience. People buy. Search engines and directories don't. Although they can help you with traffic and sales, they aren't your sales. When you start blog commenting, provide good content here too. Others will read your comments, and they may just visit your blog.
4. Write guest blog posts.
Guest blogging is one of the most effective ways to get the word out about your blog. You may consider doing a search in the search engines to find sites that accept blog posts. You'll want to search for guest blogging and your topic. Two sites that may also help you are My Blog Guest and Blog Synergy. Submit your unique content there and have it picked up by others blogs that want what you are writing about.
5. Use social bookmarking.
This internet marketing technique will help you build high ranking backlinks, but it will also turn your content into mini news stories that are often read on these sites. It will help you get traffic and build your overall search engine marketing strategy too. Create a good description, title, and tags. Include your keywords in the title and tag so you get the best results.
6. Use a comprehensive ping list.
A ping list is a list of sites that index blogs, and when you ping them, you are notifying them that your blog has been updated so that they update your content. They may be search engines or RSS directories. You want to get the most coverage possible, and pinging your blog will will do the job for you. There are free services available for you to do this, but if you set up the ping list within your blog, these sites will be pinged automatically and automate this process for you.
7. Write good search engine optimized content.
Before you write your content, make sure you do good keyword research. Find the right keywords for your blog and write good content around it. Don't forget your readers though. They are the ones who will be reading your content. The search engines will only be indexing it. Give them good content too so that they read it. You'll build a better relationship with your readers by doing this.
8. Use Facebook plugins to promote.
Facebook offers lots of tools to help you promote your blog content. Since it's the most popular social site, you have more opportunities to connect with your audience and these plugins will help you. You are more likely to get likes and comments by using these tools too. Once you install the plugin, you can automate the entire process. Just make sure you monitor the comments so you can connect with your readers.
Whether you own a new blog or an old blog, these strategies will help you get more traffic and sales if you apply them. Use them as a checklist to get you started in marketing your blog. Then you'll connect with your audience and automate your marketing too.
