Entrepreneurs & Business Leaders - Do you Use Blogs?

Hi Everyone,
So on the principle of 'volume of work' and the fact that regular
content is required on a blog (anything from three to seven times
a week) what are you doing this week?

Being a winter sports enthusiast is great but catching up on all of
the news (Winter Olympics 2010) can be time consuming.
I'd rather be ski-ing but with a constant flow of new businesses to
get off the ground, hard work and long hours aren't conducive to
getting leisure time:)

So, How many of you use links in your web site to your blog?
Does your Blog Theme tie in with your Content?
How do you find Blogger.com as a platform for marketing?

Let me know what's working for you.

The Viral Method!

Today, I have received by email, no less than four different methods
for creating your very own 'trafficfest'.

As with most online activities the choice comes down to cash;
i.e. whether to spend your way out of the black hole that is anonymity
or push forward into the light with the myriad of FREE strategies that
are available to the hardworking and methodical but involve 'manual
labour' or labor to our American colleagues.

So VIRAL is the word today.

It's a simple enough process and its easy to get carried away with the
numbers, particularly if you already have a 'List'. How many methods
do you use to create your list at present?

Please take note that this, for entry level subscibers, is limited to the
creation of one list. It also requires you to have an AWeber
(autoresponder account) which is currently on a $1 trial but is generally
$20 pcm. So don't sign up if you don't have the site onboard or the
cash to set yourself up. Absolutely no point in getting all geard up
only to then find yourself in a cul-de-sac!

So if VIRAL isn't in your current gameplan it should be, if you can
afford the autoresponder costs.

Finally there are two levels of subscriber Free and Elite. As I intimated
above the Free membership gives you the ability to spread the word
with one list. The Elite is going for $97 which if you pull out of the
backend is reduced to $47.

Me I'm a cheapskate and will try the Free version out first to see if
the promise land is available to the 'unwashed'.

How Do I Build More Traffic to my Website?

With Consistency,

By now you are probably aware that there are a thousand different
things that you can do to earn yourself a living online. Traffic is the Key

What's your poison?

MLM
Affiliate Marketing
eBay
Amazon
Networking
Traffic Exchanges
Social Marketing
Niche Website
Pay Per Click
Pay per View
Viral
Blogging
Search Marketing...

The List is endless.

Short Story, i.e. the abridged version

No relevent Online Experience
Researched the most prolific, popular, best earnings in the business
opportunities
Motivated, Passionate, Cash in Pocket
Spoke to and took advice from a business partner
Chose PPC (Pay per Click) via CPA (Cost per Action) Networks
Invested Time & Money for Education and possible fortune
3 months later, Thousands Invested, No Profit
Experiential Learning, Campaign Driven
Google Slapped, Disheartened but not Out...

* In the meantime learnt, Html Editing;FTP;SEO; and onwards...
sound familiar?

So what's next? Wiser, Educated and 'Motivated to the Max' on the
look out for a Free Pass to an online income and significant success
to replace the one taken from me (redundancy).

You've heard it before 'speculate to accumulate'.

I have created some decent traffic using my two main blogs with
just some of these resources* BUT here is a great method I have
been using to make money online.

I purchased a digital product from the ClickBank marketplace and
reviewed the product. Once I did this, I followed what I read to see
if I would get the same results the writer did.

I did a short video teaching others what I learned and then made a
recommendation to purchase the product at the end of the video.
Of course, I only created a video for the products that actually
worked for me.

Since these products did work for me, by watching and following the
video, you will also benefit by seeing a dramatic increase in conversions.

Then I recommended this product through my own affiliate link.
This way I could earn commissions on what others sold. The best
way I found to do this was to purchase a meaningful and memorable
domain name and redirect the domain to my affiliate link.
Then overlay that link in the video.

I usually post my videos on my blogs and send it to my mailing lists
to make money. However if you don't have a list, then upload it to
YouTube and several other video sharing sites to make you commissions.

It's a great traffic technique that's worked for me.

Cheers
