Social Media is about your company’s image and gives a way to take an active role in managing your brand by interacting with your clients and continually promoting your brand. Most important: Social Traffic!
Social Traffic, if you don’t have one, get a copy whilst you can here.
You can raise your website’s visibility through meaningful communication opening a dialogue between you and your clients. Connect with your clients through the communities, examples:
Create profiles in communities such as MySpace, Facebook, Twitter,
Comment blog posts.
Create your own blog.
Write articles.
Disseminate using RSS feeds.
Create and share picture content through Flickr, Webshots.
Create and share video content through YouTube, Metacafe.
Social media allows you to become an active member establishing yourself as an leader and improve your visibility. It is most effective when utilized positively. Creating content, building relationships and being trustful in your community is the most important things to do.
Social Traffic was launched 1000 copies last week and sold out. Doors reopen to dowload more 300 copies
You share information and expose your community to your interests so, promote proper etiquette. The guy or gal who adds anyone is an example of improper use of Social Media. The concept is to create a community with similar interests for discussion and let the popular opinion grow your visibility. You may belong to several communities and you may have some of the same friends, that’s fine. Remain active in your communities by adding friends and contributing relevant content. Bulk adding friends, for no reason, is not good etiquette.
Communal sites are popularity contests. Trying to catalog massive amounts of unrelated friends is totally counterproductive. For the purpose of social media, you should concern yourself with quality, not quantity.
Using unsavory techniques is equivalent to spam and social media spamming is more atrocious than email spam, because the offending text is visible to everyone on the site. If you don’t have something relevant to say, don’t say anything at all.
Microsoft has been named the top display advertiser on the web in the month of June. Redmond produced roughly 5.5 billion display ads, which were seen by 126.3 million people, beating out such notables as Netflix and the University of Phoenix. Many analysts are under the impression that Microsoft’s 1.7% market share — up .7% from May — is due to their aggressive advertising of Windows Live Search and the introduction of its Windows Live Search Cashback program.
Microsoft might be on top when it comes to purchasing ads, but it finishes in fourth when it comes to actually displaying them. That award goes to Fox Media, the parent company of MySpace. Fox Media ran 52.3 billion ads in June, giving them a surprising 15.9% share of the market. Yahoo comes in second with 34.6 billion ads and a 10.5% share. Other companies listed include AOL, Google, and Facebook. While Yahoo is far behind Fox Media in terms of the amount of ads, it outdoes Fox Media in the overall amount of viewers.
Yahoo ads were seen by 150 million unique users in June, while Fox’s ads were only seen by 83.7 million unique viewers. Google is finally bringing its Google Ad Manager tool to the masses. Ad Manager, which disseminates, tracks, and manages both first and third party advertising, has been in closed beta status since March. Google is seen by some as the chief competitor to OpenX, an open source software system that performs largely the same tasks. It is also believed that Google has the early advantage over OpenX, largely due to Ad Manager’s ease of set up and ties to the already powerful AdWords.
Chris Bogen has written an interesting piece on using Twitter to help expand your business leads. In “How to Listen for Opportunities on Twitter,” Bogen states that the most powerful tool you have is the Twitter search engine. By using that engine, along with the option to make specific users RSS feeds, you can easily track those who might be interested in your product or service.
Extremely easy to execute, this article is a great source for anyone who wishes to get a bit more out of Twitter. If you’re a business owner, and you’re looking into advertising on mobile phones, take a look at JumpTap. JumpTap is a search engine directly designed for use on mobile phones.
To top it all off, JumpTap claims to have an advertising front end that could potentially give Google AdWords a run for its money. See more at his blog
I started to research deeper about the Google PageRank bar since sometimes it shows a page rank 1, 2, 3 and someday it returns to zero, no grayed. I read somewhere that it reflects the past page rank, but, how far from today? I use the Google toolbar and the SearchStatus (Firefox SEO Toolbar Extension) and I have enabled Alexa and Compete ranks. In fact, I do believe that a lot of Internet Marketer has done this research and they know the right answer so my first step is to share this question and try to have some answers at Facebook, Twitter and other social media spaces. If you are reading this post and know the answer, please, comment so that I can see and share with others. Thank you!
My brain needs to rest a bit. It is impossible to be focused as the to do list I’ll never finish. So I decided to give up some of them. It’s my first time to list a not to do list:

Finish css/css2 course
Finish the lens at Squidoo
Forget xhtml, css validations
Follow internet marketer liars
Cancel ojr newsletters
Cancel all the newsletter I don’t read
Trash all email with pps atached ando no message to me
All is fine. I’ve lost all the posts I’ve written before since the only way to get the blog up and running agais was to clean all the database. Back again to new posts
