Hosting Impact normally holds a Business Groupie meeting, every month or so, to discuss where we are going, where we have been and where we would like to be in due course.

 

I was proud to stand up before the assembled mass and let it be known that I had taken their words of wisdom, from the last pow wow we had and had developed a "Blog" and had joined "Twitter" and was enjoying it. So much so, that if I don't add a new Post every day or two, I start to get withdrawals. I have actually met fellow Twitts in person and I have liked it.  There must be something to this internet thing.

 

Anyway, back to the matters at hand...I finished singing the praises of both the Blog and Twitter and how comfortable I now was with my two newest bestest buddies and that I intend to continue "Blogging" and "Twitting"  and then it happened.....

 

One of the Groupies then innocently asked if we had done anything with Face Book, Squidoo, or another dozen Social Media Networks that she rattled off.

 

Simple answer...No, of course not, I'm doing two that's enough, isn't it.  Needless to say, that we spent the next hour + discussing the various Social Networks and what they do and don't do.

 

Here's a few that they ran past me and suggested that I look at and join.

 

Squidoo
Facebook
12seconds
30boxes.com
Bebo
Delicious
Digg
Flickr
Furl
Kwippy
Linkedin
My Blog Log
My Space
Stumble Upon
Technorati
Tumblr 

 

and of course You Tube...

 

Yea, No problem, I will put my life on hold and sit in front of the computer all day, every day, to regularly add a comment, post or blog to each and every single social media network going. If you will excuse the profanities, I will become a Social Media Whore.

 

Where does it stop... and is there anybody out there that can provide any suggestions to me and I am sure there are 1 000's of others like me, who want to know, how do you find the time and secondly, how do you do it.

 

Is there a one post that fits all and if it does, how does that go towards duplication content penalty.

 

Any suggestions, assistance or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

 

 

Until Net Time ...
Happy Blogging

Website Traffic is the most essential thing for a website to become a successful internet based business. Aside from ensuring that you have great products and services to sell,  you do need traffic, quality traffic, to be successful. 

If you already have a website and yet think that you're not getting the traffic that you want to have or should have, then it's maybe time to review, your current website. 

You should always be on your guard and be ever mindful of your competitors websites and review how they are achieving their results. Is it becasue of traffic and if so, How, Where, Why, When.

Generating traffic or more quality traffic to your website, is not as difficult as you might imagine. However, what may be difficult for some webiste owners, is the fact that they may need to do it themselves or engage the services of a company to assist. It is no longer a case of I have built my website, where are my customers. Does not work that way and I seriously doubt it ever did.

Here are three ways to increase your traffic starting from yesterday.

1) Viral Marketing 

Viral marketing is a cute little buzz word being thrown around at the moment, however, this cute little buzz word effectively allows you to spread the word about your company and product with minimal cost. This is a marketing method that can be used intelligently, whereby you can attach your company’s name, signature, product or link to any available media such as a You Tube, Twitter, Face Book, Linked In or Community Forum etc.... If used correctly, your website will generate additional traffic as your post, input, video or thread is passed from pillar to post. 

2) Correct keywords or keyword phrases for your website

Search engines look for certain keywords that they then display in their results page. So it naturally follows that by having the right keyword and relevant keyword phrase is a high priority for ranking high within the search engines. Case in point: Client wants to be number 1 for the term "Real Estate" however, after much convincing the term "Port Stephens Real Estate" is used, as it is a much better selection ofa keyword, plus, it certainly is not as competitive. End result, the customer is satisifed with the results and they also get a better understanding of why and how relevant keywords work.

3) Write Articles that can lead traffic to your site

Consider submitting articles to websites that contain the similar subjects to yours. For example, you sell car parts, then write press releases and articles about cars and car parts. Include your website description and services at the end of the article. Please remember to include your link. There are a number of Article Submission places that encourage you to write and submit articles on your area of expertise. These articles are then used by other websites on the proviso that the article remains in tact, complete with your link.

End of the day, it comes down to the same rules, if you like and that is that you need to take full responsibility for your website and it's results or lack of. Don't have the expertise, that's ok, contact a company that does, but either way, you still need to do something.
