One of the most attractive aspects of working on the Web is the relative anonymity you can achieve. Unfortunately, this can also be one of the biggest drawbacks! A large part of web marketing today involves the necessary interaction with your visitors, customers, fans, friends, and followers. You ignore this at your own peril! Your competition is undoubtedly making use of all the ways they can connect with their audience, and so should you. Let’s look at some of the many ways you can connect and help foster relationships.

Your Blog - If you don’t have a blog in today’s web marketing world, you are voluntarily stepping to the back of the pack. A blog can do so much for you, from selling to initiating lively discussion and conversation. You can develop huge followings, who will, in the end, become your customer base. If you don’t have one, start one today!

Social Networks – Your presence on various social networks is nearly obligatory now. You don’t have to do them all, but the awesome potential of being able to reach so many people in such a short amount of time is undeniable! Also, there are ways to automate the process a bit, so several services can be updated at once.

Your Email Lists - One of the worst things you can do is to build a list and then not communicate with them.  An email list is a huge asset to a web marketer, and make sure you keep in contact. You don’t always have to sell them either. You’ll find they will be far more responsive to your occasional pitches when every previous message hasn’t been trying to get into their wallet. Strive to deliver value!

Video and Podcasts – Keeping in touch through various forms of media is a great idea, especially video. We are fast becoming a world that would rather watch it than read it, so make sure this is part of your arsenal.

Guest Posts and Articles – Getting your name out there and contributing terrific content can only help enhance your position in your market. Make sure you give these efforts your best, especially when guest posting on someone else’s site. This can be worth a huge infusion of visitors, and you want to make the most of this kind of opportunity.

There are more methods, but you get the idea. Making sure you are connecting with those you hope to reach is part and parcel of any business. In the old days, it could take years to reach as many people as you can today in minutes. Don’t let this go to waste!

Hi Everyone!!!

I’m really excited to tell you that we’ve done our very first WSO today.  For years we’ve been known as the highest quality outsourcing company on the internet, but we’ve never created and sold PLR despite the MANY requests that we’ve gotten!!!  So, if you’re one of the people who has been harassing us to do it-It’s a happy day!!!   You can see our special Warrior Forum Discount page http://www.contentdivas.com/warriorforumdiscount/

It’s pretty great.  We researched 14 different niches and for each one, chose a sub-category with keywords and developed an informative high-quality report, 10-500 word marketing articles AND 3 animoto-style videos!

If you want to check out the ACTUAL WSO, you’ll want to go http://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-special-offers-forum/240956-high-quality-private-label-rights-content-divas-first-time-ever.html

Let us know what you think!!

It’s very easy. All of us have fallen prey to it at one time or another. The latest shiny new toy is unwrapped for public view and we go gaga! With so many big deal launches occurring lately (even launches about launches!), I felt it was prudent to remind you (and myself!) to keep my eyes on the road!

Here’s the deal. Most EVERY time, it’s not something we need. It either takes us down another rabbit hole and wastes weeks, months, and money in the process; or will purport to make your marketing or life easier in some way that veers us off the track we should be on.

I know that there are products we will want or need to acquire over time;  just count the cost not only in dollars, but in time away from your primary money making pursuits. That is precious ground to try and make up!

In case you missed it, here is a terrific interview where Shelby appears on Andrew Lock’s Web TV show “Help! My Marketing Sucks!”

She talks about the differences between paid and organic traffic, and how organic can get you results quicker than you might think! She also gets into BAM (Buyer’s Attraction Marketing) and the importance of targeting great keywords in your marketing efforts. Enjoy and please leave comments about what you think!
