Here’s just a short response he made when asked …the secret to success.

Totally Tweetable Site- Review

Internet Marketing | Posted by Linda Basta
Sep 05 2011

TotallyTweetable.com is one of those WOW sites that looks like it has been the brainchild of some very serious marketing minds. I am very impressed.

It is combining the powerful concepts of member based email marketing and combines it with some powerful viral techniques, including Social Media and blogging.

You are not in any way required to take the upgrades to get the benefits of the site. However, they do multiply the benefits out by a few hundred times , plus the fee is pretty small for the extra exposure you get.

What a concept.
The world of marketing online has been dying slowly for a while now as people are fed up with ‘opting in’ and getting mail boxes filled with Spam.

So this system takes the traditional email marketing and modernizes it and then blows the roof of your exposure by adding in a pretty neat VIRAL twist.

This benefits WHATEVER you promote.
No matter if it is a Clickbank product, a matrix, an MLM or ANYTHING. Even Google ad words and ‘traditional’ style of marketing can reap huge benefits from this site.

You get to tap into the power of hundreds of active twitter accounts, and blog readers and send your message across the entire network.

There has never been another site that does this that I have ever seen. It is being hailed as ‘Social Evolution’ where by you can almost ‘share’ the social media connections of others. In fact… I think it is going to be HUGE.

My vote is that this site is going to put a lot of money in my pocket over the years to come.

The power of being able to reach out to people is not to be overlooked… The system makes that reaching easy. I, for one, have ALWAYS wanted to have other people send out tweets for me... And do you know what – this system has a guaranteed 200 people who will be tweeting for you, every time you send out!! But…  THE TOP LEVEL IS WHERE TO BE FOR SERIOUS MARKETERS – A GUARANTEED 3000 PEOPLE TO TWEET FOR YOU COMES WITH THE PACKAGE… Whoa!

Overall I have to say I am impressed with TotallyTweetable.com.  It is simple yet powerful, and delivers on its promises.  Highly recommended to anyone who wants to explode their list and benefit from some excellent advertising.

Take a look, and join right away.

Blogging For Beginners

Internet Marketing | Posted by Linda Basta
Aug 26 2011
Today we are going to talk about blogging.
So what is a BLOG anyway?
A blog is a website written in a friendly news format that is frequently updated.  Unlike traditional Website, a blog is ever changing.
Similar to a TV newscast or newspaper, a blog brings up to date useful information on any topic imaginable. A good blog educates informs and entertains. It is written in reverse chronological order with the most recent post on top. Some people use blogging like a journal , some are ‘just for fun’ and others are extremely professional. 
So Why should I have a blogging have to do with business?

Whatever online business you have, you must start a blog for the long-term viability of your business.

Here are 8 reasons to start a blog
:

1. It is the easiest way to set up a website. There are plenty of free themes you can use for a nice looking site.
2. Search engines love blogs because they are looking for fresh
content everyday. If you work at adding new content on a consistent basis Google and other search engines will reward
you with free traffic.

3. You can sell products, including affiliate products, on your blog. Start by placing a banner for your favorite program or product on the sidebar. You’ll get directions on how to add ‘widgets’.

4. You can earn money from AdSense, those Google text ads that you see in many sites.

5. Blogs are a great way to interact with your visitors. You can find lots of information and their need from your visitors’ comments on the blog. You can keep in-touch with them using
emails if they subscribe to your mailing list.

6. You can network with other bloggers in your niche and share ideas

or develop JV partnerships7. When you send traffic to an affiliate product site directly, that traffic is lost to you forever. But if you send the same
traffic to your blog, you can retain a percentage of the traffic who will become repeat visitors to your site.You’ll want to add a contact FORM, so you’ve captured their information.

8. Best of all…….unlike a traditional Website….It’s FREE !
No Web Master or HTML knowledge needed

So How do you start a blog?
 
The 3 most popular blog companies are TypePad, WordPreess, and Blogger or Blogspot.  Of the 3,  Blogger is the easiest for a beginner.
Just go to Blogger.com and follow the directions. Plan ahead what your TOPIC and your NAME will be.  This will become your URL to your Blog site. Be sure you spend a little time on your ABOUT ME and your profile because this is how people can get to feel comfortable with you.  Then just relax and start writing.I’d start again with something about you , and the purpose of your blog.
Remember educate, interesting information and friendly .  Sales pitches are a turn off.
Now how do I make money?
Blogs are interactive. You encourage visiters to comment. They get to know you… you get to know them. If they are interested in the topic you are discussing , they will eventually be interested in the product you have to sell. if it is relevant, of course. If you are wanting to use a link  ,try to use it in your signature.

When you have your own blog, you are in charge of the content that is posted on it. You can decide what is said, and what is not. You are after all writing it all, right? So, the sky is the limit. Whether you want a blog that does website reviews and takes nominations, or you want to sell things that you make out of your home, the choice is yours. Using a blog to get the word out about whatever you want too is a great way to market and promote something.

There are lots of books and reports out there to help you along the way.  I think we’ve covered the basics. 

Blogging, like ‘article writing’ gives visitors a sense of you expertise in your topic,  only not so formal.

Success on a Budget

Internet Marketing | Posted by Linda Basta
Aug 22 2011

Everyone is looking to have success on line. One of the biggest problem or concern seems to be that they don’t have much money to work with.  Marketing and advertising is essential,  so what strategies should you be using ?

One of the worst things you can do is go out and spend every last dollar you have on purchasing a website,  buying leads, PPC campaigns, Facebook ads, or postcards.
And yet, that’s what many new  business owners do. After a while of doing this, many people end up broke, and have nothing to show for it. They are forced to call it quits , and say this ‘Internet Thing’ doesn’t work.

So what should you do?

What you want to do is invest your funds into “high leverage” skills and simple activities, which you can use over and over again to quickly and easily produce more leads any time you want… for FREE.

And that’s become very easy to do thanks to some BIG changes which have taken place in the online world recently..

Well thanks to new Web 2.0 sites we have today like MySpace, FaceBook, YouTube, CraigsList, StoreBoard and Ebay, you don’t have to spend big bucks, to tap into this massive flood of FREE traffic…

There are countless numbers of free business networking sites like LinkedIn and IBOToolbox and SoKule.
No longer do you need to pay for classified ads. There are hundred of free posting sites.

Social marketing and building relationships with people has become the ‘key’ to success. Making  friends and networking with others enables people to know, like, and trust you.  Only then, will they will buy from you.

The next thing you need to focus on is building a personal contact list. There are lots of ways of doing this. We’ll cover that another day.

Blogging is another way you can so this.  Setting up a Word Press or Blogger Blog is so simple these days.  Market that blog to let people know who you are and what your all about.  Again… a topic for another  day.

Need to know how to get started?  Take a look at the steps on this site, make use of some of the tools, and you’ll be on your way to having success with your Internet business.  You’ll need to use a SYSTEM.  I recommend Second Income Coach (SIC). It’s a funded marketing system that builds your list and promotes your primary business.
I am using it very successfully.
Hope this has helped.

Here is a gift of  my free eCourse called Tips & Training to get all the step by step help you need.
