Social Networking in Plain English

Social Networking in Plain English

I have just run one of my workshops this last weekend in Perth. I was trying to explain how important it is to do Social Networking.

There are at least 3 Social Networking Sites that I believe as an Internet Marketer you should belong to, of course there are many more but I really don’t have time to be active in any more than these.

Twitter

Facebook

Linkedin

Most of you will have heard of all of those I am sure unless you have been living under a rock. :-)

I believe that when these groups were created they were not setup to be used as Marketing Companies and that is really what they have now become. I have to say that alot of my sales and now my database has grown from both Twitter and Facebook, they are both very powerful.

But what is Social Bookmarking?

I decided to pop this video into here for you to watch, I love the way this guy explains how this all works. There is one thing that too many people forget… there are 2 words in Social Networking… we are used to Networking and often forget the most important word these days and thats the word “Social”. Too many just get out there and sell, sell, sell in both Facebook, Twitter and Linked-In and just forget that one needs to be social as well. To take part in conversations and care…

As it stands right now I have a very high google page rank on one of my Twitter accounts. This has happened because I have been taking part and also I have almost as many followers as I have following. I also tweet so that must be what makes goole happy with what I am doing. I have other twitter accounts with various rankings… also I note that Google has changed and is now listing people’s Twitter accounts in googl, and in some cases my Twitter account is ranked higher than my Website. How amazing.

I use Social Networking to connect Socially with people and I believe to get the most out of Social Networking you should be doing the same.

I guess the other issue is, most don’t want to Tweet and don’t go near it because they believe they will be wasting time, well one needs to try it out and see the results. I have most of my Tweeting on automatic as you will see from earlier posts I believe in using tools to make things as simple as possible. My Twitter Adder software is amazing and worth a look at that’s for sure.

3 Tips to having a great Twitter Account

1. Setup a Twitter account for each Niche

2. Only follow people in your Niche

3, Take part and don’t be a Twitter Snob

Same applies for the other Social Networking groups as well.

If you are looking for some more tips and tricks on using Social Networking and other social media then my 350 Social Media Tactics will be a great help to you I am sure as the 350 Tips will help you think outside the box as to things you can do to use Social Media

Enjoy the video and let me know your thoughts.

Clickbank – Why not to buy from yourself

Why You Should Not Buy From Your Own Affiliate Link

 

A few have asked this question… here is the answer… direct from Clickbank

Is it okay to buy from MY Own Affiliate LINK?

Thank you for your inquiry. While it is possible to use your own affiliate HopLink to purchase products from ClickBank, this is a practice that we discourage as it can lead to payment issues for your account.

Please be aware of the Customer Distribution Requirement, which states your account must reflect sales made with 5 or more different credit card numbers, and the sales must have been made with two different payment methods (either Visa, MasterCard, or PayPal). Note: PayPal purchases do not count toward the minimum 5 different credit card numbers.

This requirement is in place to help prevent affiliates from abusing the ClickBank Affiliate Program by using their accounts for the sole purpose of collecting rebates and/or discounts on their own ClickBank purchases.

Although the Customer Distribution Requirement only has to be met once for each account, ClickBank continually monitors affiliate accounts to help prevent affiliates from abusing the ClickBank Affiliate Program. Affiliate accounts are for earning commissions on sales that other customers, not yourself, make through your links.

Please note that if your account is ever found to be violating our Client Contract, it can be terminated and any funds earned through purchases through your own HopLink can be held.

You may review our accounting policies by following the link below:

The 7 Tools To Internet Success

These are seminars I hole around the country in New Zealand. I got an email asking me to be interviewed on the TV about them. Wow my first TV interview.

I had all the questions sent to be before hand which I looked at and rehearsed… then she asked me different ones :-)

I guess she was taken back abit by my amazing new skin I had got put on my laptop she just wanted to talk about that. It was fun I have to say, then she asked me where the Seminar was going to be held… opps complete mind blank..

It was interesting and fun, and boy does 6 mins go by really fast. Anyway all done now, and here is the interview.

New Zealand Internet Marketer

I have to say I am totally passionate about Internet Marketing, and about business Online and Offline in New Zealand particularly, but overseas as well. No matter where I speak I am asked the same questions..

  1. Is there really money to be made online?
  2. How long will it take to make it?
  3. How much will I make?
  4. Will one site give me enough money so I can retire?
  5. How much time do I have to spend on my Online Business?

These questions and many more are great questions and all deserve an open an honest answer, which I am going to give via video, as I believe they are worth answering honestly and well.

In the meantime here is the video off the TV interview, I look forward to meeting you somewhere in my travels.

Learn Internet Marketing Using the Right Tools

GB IM4SB

I believe to do anything well you need the right tools… I am sure you would agree. If you are a builder you know that you need not only the right tools but you also need good tools… who wants a hammer that after you give something a good knock then the end falls off… not very helpful.

I have said over and over that I will teach you Internet Marketing and tell you about the correct Internet Marketing Resources that will help you not only build a great Internet Business but will also build you a strong one.

I saw a video the other day of a massive block of Flats or Units in China fall over and into a raging torrent of water and all because no one bothered to make sure the foundations were strong and able to stand up to whatever the weather would throw at the building… It was very sad to see it all happen.

Internet Marketing Strategies

Not only will I give you great Internet Marketing Strategies I will give you the tools to make the Strategies all work for you.

I am excited to tell you about a few things I have been doing lately with a number of my new sites that are working very well for me.

I will share some of these with you now.

I have recently built a WordPress Site all about How To Draw A Car Step By Step this site has done well and in 2 weeks has made it to front page of Google. The next site I setup was one all about TMJ called TMJ Help Site, this has made it to front page of Google as well in less than a week on my chosen keywords, then in weekend while at a Workshop I was running I put together a website all about Hemorrhoids, it was all abit of fun, but I see only 4 days later that that site is on page 2 of Google.

Story
Last week I went to help out a guy who wanted me to show him how to get a website up and running and promoting an Affiliate Product… well here is what happened.. at the begining of our time together he was no where to be found on Google, after 90 mins of me showing him what he needed to do to get to front page, he was at top of page 2… after only 90 mins.

So what got him and myself from no where to the front page of Google?

Really great question….

Get to Front Page of  Google Fast

Well it’s all about the keywords and being relevant.  It’s all about the description and about the Headers… no one will tell you that… but it’s true. I would say that only about 5% of websites out there have any of those things on the website and I will prove it to you. Just watch the video and you will see as I randomly select websites..

Want to know more… want to know the big secret of how to get Traffic and How to get Google to find you…

then go here to my site Internet Marketing For Small Business and get the FREE DVD that will reveal all to you. It’s amazing.
