The Arrival of the Social Media Marketing Age |
There is no doubt in my mind that the explosion of social media has become the dominant force in online marketing today, and it's not going to go away. Knowing this, ignoring social media is something that businesses can no longer afford to do if they want to remain competitive.
Marketing is an industry that changes drastically as every year goes by. Over the course of the past few years, the industry has seen a shift like it hasn't seen since its inception. The advent of the Internet certainly shook the world, but it took the introduction of social media to really blow the roof off. Social media has changed the way many people live their lives, and has certainly changed marketing to a drastic degree. One thing is for sure, and your business may very well be doomed. Welcome to the next generation.
Many people wonder what the term "social media" really means. After all, it is a fairly loose, catchall umbrella term. While this may bear some truth, it should not work to underestimate social media's importance. In general, social media is thought to be any virtual platform that allows the user to take control and actually broadcast about his or her life. Whether the reason behind this is that people love to talk about themselves or that people love to hear others talk about themselves (it's probably a combination of both), social media is here to stay. Ignoring the trend is no different than ignoring the automobile; we're not going back in time in the near future.
Social media gives the strategic marketer a veritable treasure trove worth of tools to make use of. While many people think of social media just being made up of website such as Facebook and Twitter, the full-range of the spectrum proves that there are hundreds of options for the social media marketer to take advantage of. Take blogging, for instance. Many people view blogs as being sources of either hard fact or personal accounts, and don't take into account the fact that blogging can be used to promote products & services. A smart company will have an interesting, accessible blog, as this will heighten the interest of the business to levels unforeseen.
While blogging is useful, there's a reason why sites like Facebook and Twitter define social media - they're extremely popular, and each holds millions of members that are all targets for various forms of marketing. Sure, posting banner ads on Facebook will likely get your website more traffic and may even help to increase business. The real potential, however, is setting up a Facebook page devoted to your products or services. As with blogging, you'll want your Facebook page to be attractive and interesting to read, complete with pictures and commentary.
Have you ever considered how effective a simple tweet about a new product you've released can be? Many people don't even think about how useful Twitter can be to a marketing campaign. The bottom line is that Twitter's popularity is
higher than it has ever been, and making use of the service
for marketing can be very effective.
Start using social media today and watch business increase!

Blog traffic tips - Blogging tips |
Increase blog traffic |
How to increase blog traffic is the most important thing every blogger is looking for. For increasing blog traffic, bloggers try hard looking for information and ways and spending lot of time on socializing sites, directories, discussion forums etc. I find lot of sites have come up giving paid services for SEO, SMO, link building etc. Moreover they advertise openly with proofs, testimonials and google search engine policy is against buying and selling of links, buying paid traffic etc. So only google knows what is legitimate and what is not. As google search engine algorithm has become more smart nowadays, it is not easy to trick the search engine for top ranking. So it is better to follow google webmaster guidelinesand google search engine optimization starter guide. To increase blog traffic there are already two posts on my blog related to Search engine optimization and building blog traffic published in 2007, so you can go through these articles to begin with. As in last two years things have changed. There are now more ways to increase blog traffic using different methods and resources. So I would like to mention few more tips to increase blog traffic. 1) For search engine traffic, do not depend only on google search engine. Please confirm that all your posts / pages are listed in major search engines like search.yahoo.com, bing.com, ask.com, aol.com. 2) You should know basics of SEO to get top ranking in these search engines. Different search engines give different weightage to factors like meta tags, title, etc. You should also know how to get all your posts / pages indexed in bing.com 3) Keep your template SEO friendly. I have seen some templates with missing h1 tag and missing basics of SEO. 4) Facebook traffic is now almost equal to google so you must use facebook efficiently to drive traffic to your blog or site. You might be having facebook profile and group but creating facebook page and using facebook application is must for this. 5) Learn how to use twitter to get more followers and how to write tweets. 6) Keep commenting on do follow blogs related to your category with genuine comment given after reading their post. 7) There are other high traffic sites, also giving search facility. You should enter your blog information and create a page for your blog on these sites. 8) Write articles related to your subject and submit to good article directory sites which has high traffic and allows you to give link to your blog. Find the list of Top 50 article directories here. 9) Everybody knows submitting to bookmarking and socializing sites like delicious.com, stumbleupon.com, digg.com etc. But you also need to know efficiently using these services, type of link they give to your blog, how it is indexed in search engines, etc. You also need to find better bookmarking and socializing sites which work better for subject of your blog because some subjects / niche has limited target audience. e.g. for a pregnancy related blog you can find directories and socializing sites specific for mothers. Please send your comments and share any new traffic source or methods you find out !

Earning Money Online By Blogging |
| I now want to start a small mini-series on how you succeed in earning money online by blogging. In this first article I want to focus on a very special thing – in fact the easiest when it comes to maintaining a WordPress blog. That element is to keep your WordPress blog updated. How Often Should You Update Your WordPress Software? You should update as often as possible. Every time a new version is released there are two obvious advantages to updating: Security issues solved. When a new version is released new bugs have been fixed, and you get the benefit of increased functionality – but always backwards compatible within reasonable timeframes. New files on your domain. One of the extra benefits is also that you get lots of updated content on your site. What may appear identical has huge benefits when it comes to Search Engine Optimization. But more than this, the extra functionality is always the most important reason for updating. New versions bring an updated control panel (the so-called “Dashboard”) and the huge benefit of updates for optimizing your database and the relationship with the files in your tables. Sometimes you will see that the database has |

Blogging Tips |
Blogging: You Can Send Your Readers Away! |
Have you started blogging yet? It starts with a basic set-up at Blogger or WordPress or even your own personal domain, and later, some search engine submissions, social media work, and getting the word out by means like emailing your friends. Now that your blog is ready, let’s have a look at what can go wrong in it—what can put your readers off!
1. Design & Speed
There are a million coolest looking blogs in the Blogosphere. That means the readers are no longer looking for great website designs. They want information in a neatly arranged place that loads faster. The standard loading time for a blog should be less than 4 seconds, and make sure you have it. Otherwise, you know what it will be. 70 per cent of the readers get out of a site if it doesn’t load within the first 4 seconds.
2. Advertising
Readers are smart now, and know well about Adsense or any other ad network you are using for monetization. They frown upon banners and suspiciously descriptive links that attract clicks. So, my piece of advice to you is this: it’s always best to put off ads till you start getting some 100 visitors daily.
3. Web Widgets
Readers are easily put off by fancy widgets such as analog clocks, pics on social networking profiles, and visitor statistics. Add as few of the widgets as possible. Your blog is a utility website, and not like your profile on Facebook or iGoogle. Certain widgets like the translation widget, RSS subscription widget, and social networking icon list are necessary. Do away with all others.
4. Search Box
Have only one search box on your blog. Some bloggers, as I have seen, put up two search boxes (Adsense allows maximum of two). This is ridiculous.
5. Fancy RSS Icon
Do away with it if you have a fancy RSS subscription icon on top. All it does is distract users. Have a small simple RSS icon with an email subscription box optionally.
6. Traffic Stats
If you have mediocre visit stats, don't put up a stats count at all. With trackers from StatCounter, Sitemeter etc., you can opt for invisible trackers. Otherwise, obscure the tracker icon.
7. Personal Blog Posts
You put up a topic-specific blog and posted extensively about your day-to-day life, affairs with your family, the condition of your vehicle, and all that you saw on a day. How much longer do you think your readers will stick around watching you ramble on about your personal life? Two days? Three days? A week? They are gonna stop reading sooner than you realize.
8. Fast Navigation
You have a blog concentrating on a topic. If so, create links to posts with descriptions your users will be interested in. If your topic is for instance “Insurance for vehicles”, then put up home page links to ‘insurance firms’, ‘basic info’, ‘getting cheap insurance’, etc. Don’t put up links to the most advanced articles. Let them have a way with the site, and then browse to the advanced sections.
9. Enable Printable Pages
Most readers will be interested in printable formats. Some users wish to have a single printable page that loads faster than individual pages suitable for web-based reading.
10. Associated Links
Users want to see related topics. They wish to bookmark important links about what they just read. Put up all the useful links you can find about the topic in question. This will come handy for most users. |

What is a Twitter Twenius? |
Did you know that celebrities, government officials and well known people from
@MarthaStewart to @AndyDick to @GreggOpieHughes to @SebastianBach and beyond, are racing to position themselves as part of the Twitter phenomena.
But Twitter is far more incredible than that. In fact, Twitter is a local based social tool too. It's likely your town municipal government is on Twitter, your local TV news, your local Fire Department, your favorite bookstore, your community college, even the guy that bagged your groceries last week. If they are not on Twitter today, it's just a matter of time.
But there's another force moving rapidly to Twitter. It's a tidal shift of a more serious nature where businesses and entrepreneurs are beginning to tap the grand potential of Twitter. When you see well-known companies like: @HRBlock, @intuit or @knitrider piling on to the Twitter bandwagon, it's unmistakably time to pay close attention.
It is likely that this "business phenomena" boils down to the undeniable fact that a lot of business actually occurs in social gatherings, at cocktail parties, on the golf course, or at various other social events. Now, through Twitter it's become possible, if not down right easy, to benefit from the internet version of a non-stop 24 hour, 7 day a week cocktail party of unending proportions.
The statistics and stories are incredible:
- How powerful is a reTweet? "Social network users are 3 times more likely to trust the opinions of peers over advertising when making purchase decisions." ~JupiterResearch
- "Unique Visitors to Twitter are dominated by 2,935,000 in the 35-49 age range (41.7%)"
- "By a long shot, Twitter, blogs, LinkedIn and Facebook were the top four social media tools used by marketers, with Twitter leading the pack."
What's the meaning of all this? It means that if you are an entrepreneur or own a business, you must go directly to Twitter, do not pass go, do not collect $200, and set up your own Twitter account.
Can it possibly be that easy?
Well, not exactly. Once you have your account opened, that's when the simplicity goes out the window. It's a very very basic concept, but like playing chess, unless you have a clear strategy, you're going to soon be scratching your head.
Thankfully, there's help. Internet strategist and social media marketing expert, Dan Hollings has spent over 12 months researching and testing Twitter strategies for business. Along the way, Dan wrote 100 of the most popular Twitter tips found anywhere online. Next he created a browser toolbar for Mac or PC that puts over 235 Twitter tools, tips and apps easily within reach. Recently, he released his remarkable Twitter training program called, "Twitter Twenius" (that's Twitter-talk for genius).
Here is a sample Twitter tip, to wet your whistle:
One secret is NOT to think Twitter drives revenue as a stand-alone vehicle. Instead, think of Twitter as one more wheel or perhaps the driveshaft on your internet dune buggy. Once it's up and running, you'll likely find yourself compelled to put your Twitter pedal to the metal.
Of course there's a lot more to learn, however if you're looking for how to make money with Twitter or a way to turn-on the Twitter afterburners on all your promotional campaigns from local to international, I recommend Twitter Twenius.

Optimizing google adsense to make more money from blogging |
Google adsense is one of the most popular programs used to make money from blogging. Billions of bloggers publishing adsense on their blog always wanted to know how to increase their earnings from adsense. Usually the CTR(click through ratio) of adsense is from 0.5% to 2.5% for blogs having 1000 or more page views per day. But if we can increase CTR we can earn more from same no. of page views.
So here I would like to share my ideas and tips on optimizing google adsense i.e. how to increase CTR. Please note that these ideas and tips are based on my own experiments carried out on 20 blogs.
Let us have a look at the tips one by one. (Some of you might be knowing few of these but please read all the tips)
1) The placement of the ad unit – Should be within the post and ideally below the post title and above the post content. Please note that it should be properly aligned in middle of post body. Use <div style='margin: auto 10% auto 10 %'> your adsense code </div> to align the ad unit. (% value can be changed)
In some cases you have to display the ad unit beside the post content i.e. on right hand side of post content.
Also note that whether the ads are in post or sidebar the right half of the blog screen will get more clicks because most of the people use the mouse with their right hand.
Hence 3 column template with post column in between the right and left side bar is better.
2) The colors of the ad unit - The background and border color should match the background color of the post body. The title color can be blue or matching to the blog text color. Other colors you can choose matching to blog theme and for white background, google default palette is fine. You can also try option of selecting Multiple Palettes which keeps on rotating colors, for 48 hours and check whether CTR is increased or not.
3) The size of the ad unit within the post can be 336X280 or 300X250. In some cases where you are displaying the ad unit on right hand side of the post content, the size can be 250x250 or smaller which ever suits your blog. In case of only picture blog, I have used 120x240 size ad unit on right hand side of the posts.
4) The font size of the ad unit should be medium or large and font family should be Arial or Verdana. You can change this by going to Manage Ads>Edit ad settings.
5) There is option of choosing what to display if no relevant ads are available. Out of the three options, you can choose second option and enter URL of your another blog, so that this blog will be displayed within ad units. You should take care that there should be no google ads in top left of this URL. This is a good way of displaying ads of your low traffic blog on a high traffic blog. Or display your affiliate products page or site.
6) The maximum no. of ad units that can be displayed on a page are three but the total no. of ads displayed depends on the size of the ad unit i.e. in 336X280 ad unit, four text ads can be displayed, so three such ad units will display 4x3=12 ads per page. Some of the ad units can display 2 or 3 ads per unit, making total no. of ads 6 or 9 per page. What I have observed is (not always) less the no. of ads per page, more is the CPC (cost per click). So keep watch on no. of ads per page. CPC of ads also depends on other factors, but discussing that will be off the topic.
7) Link units – can be placed 1) below the header 2) in the side bar with the labels (categories) 3) below the post content.
With the colors matching to the blog colors, they also look like links/labels of the blog, creating higher chances of click. Please note that link unit requires two clicks to generate earnings. In ‘Advance report’ option you can find out how many link clicks got converted to earning clicks.
So even after proper color and placement, if they are not giving higher CTR, please remove them.
8) Adsense for search can be placed in header or upper area of blog. Please note that it requires two clicks to earn from this search unit. So one good option is selecting ‘Search type’ as ‘only sites I select’ while generating code for search unit. Enter all your blogs and websites there, so search results will be from those sites only. Check statistics of search unit in advance reports and decide whether to keep it or not. It has not generated much earnings for me.
9) Always create channel for your ad unit and give relevant name to ad unit as well as the channel so that you can view the performance and statistics in ‘Advance Reports’ and find out which ad unit is performing better.
Also add description with better keywords in custom channels and select proper ad location because this will be seen by advertisers as available place to place their ads.
10) Try to increase your blog rss subscribers and use google adsense for feed. Normally CPC is higher for ads in feed than ads on the blog.
11) Download and install google adsense preview tool
You can visit your blog using IE and right click and select google adsense preview tool and find out which ads will get displayed in which country .You can note down the URL and if you do not want them to get displayed on your blog you can block them by going to Adsense Setup> Competitive Ad Filter . Please read google adsense help for this.
12) Go to Adsense Setup>Ad Review Center > Filtered Categories .You will get % of recent earnings and recent impressions. If earnings are less for a particular category (with respect to impressions) please tick mark and filter them so that next time ads of these categories will not get displayed.
13) Visitor tend to exit from your blog using different links so try to study exit links from your visitors statistics and try to remove unwanted outgoing links from your blog. E.g. I removed a link to statcounter.com in visitors counter and created a counter without link.
14) Check whether all your posts are there in major search engines. One of my blog has 650 posts and search engine has indexed only 360 posts. So this will give me less traffic and less clicks. You can use sitemap and google webmaster tools to solve this problem.
15) I have read that one should write on higher paying keywords but this can not be a tip because say higher paying keywords are Lawyer, Insurance….Now if my blog is on Blog traffic tips, how can I write on these topics? So it is true only for few blogs which are writing on any subject. Only thing you can do is try using better keywords related to your post subject, in post title and content.
Another tip I have read is increase blog traffic but this is a different topic and it is not relevant to optimizing google adsense as it does not increase CTR.
16) From visitors statistics you can find from which country you are getting maximum clicks ( generally it is U.S.) so if you are using paid advertising to advertise your blog, select geographical locations from which you are getting more clicks.
Some times there is sudden peak up or drop in CTR which is due to type of ads getting displayed on our blog and we can not control it so I am not discussing it here.
Please try above tips one at a time and apply it for 48 to 72 hours and then check whether CTR has increased or not. Please share your experience and any new tip you find out!
