The Web 4.0 Age Of Multimedia

Available starting today. Secret Magnetic Internet Marketing Strategies has just been released and is available starting today, June 16, 2008.

FEATURE ARTICLE

As the quality of computers, browsers, and operating systems have improved, so too has the popularity in the use of multimedia. Web 4.0 has become known as the age of rich media (multimedia). In fact it is the use of rich media that defines the new internet era of Web 4.0.

Technology has changed the way we live. How we embrace it will determine whether or not we will run in the forefront as leaders, or struggle remaining behind the times.

There are several reasons as to why rich media can be an important tool for you to consider using.

First and foremost, today’s internet user wants or expects it. Today is the day of mobile devices. Not only do we have a population that takes pictures with their phones, but now they can watch TV on their phones. Rich media has become the expectation of users when they look for sites which want to be viewed as current.

Secondly, if your users expect rich media, then you have to be using it to stay ahead of your competition. Sites must remain cutting edge or they quickly fall back into the bone pile of dinosaur websites.

Third, rich media creates a better over all user experience. All one has to think of is the comparison in numbers of men who will sit down to watch TV compared to the number of men who will sit down to read a book. On the internet, more people will sit down to view rich media, than the number of people who will sit down to read a webpage.

Rich media has a fourth important point to consider. If people will take time to watch a short video on your website, then they are also spending more time visiting your webpage. The longer people sit on your web page, the greater the chance they will buy from you.

A fifth point to consider is how rich media can enhance the marketing capability of your business or web site. If you can create a short 3 to 5 minute video, and post it to your web page, you can also post it to numerous video sharing sites, radically increasing your exposure. Each video sharing site will provide your video with a unique URL which you can link back to your website. One short video can become a massive network or promotion for you , your business, and or/your product.

Rich media will become the mainstream in promotional styles. It doesn’t require any fancy equipment as many digital cameras equipped with sound are now capable of producing acceptable videos. Many personal computers come equipped with great movie editing tools.

The important thing to consider is your reason “WHY”? There’s no point in creating videos for your webpage that lack content. Your message must be valuable to those who view your video. Your message must be inline with the product or service you are promoting. Your message must direct people towards action, as the overall purpose for your video is to be a valuable part of your sales funnel.

Rich media is worth the time spent learning about it and implementing it. It is a critical part of any modern promotional campaign.

Feature Article

Tips On Renaming Your Website

Discovering down the road that your website domain name is working against you can be tough. There are serious pros and cons one must consider before making any adjustments.

Existing URL’s, no matter how poor do generate traffic. Dropping an URL in exchange for a new one can set your traffic flow patterns back for a significant period of time (3 to 6 months).

Changing to a better URL does give a person the opportunity to create a new buzz through advertisements, word of mouth, press releases, email notifications etc. While creating a stir can generate great excitement, it also can generate a significant cost. The question is, will the resulting cost justify the URL name change.

In the process you can risk losing search engine rankings, inbound links, random visitor traffic, and the all important repeat visitors and customers.

All factors must be taken into careful consideration before venturing out into the realm of creating and launching a new URL. The variables will all be based on how much traffic your existing URL is actually drawing.

How then can one make a realistic change over?

A very effective strategy in the use of domain names is to create branches of websites. Segment your business focus into categories, and launch a website for each category, being very careful to link your sites to each other. In doing this, you have the opportunity to establish a new home site, and advertise it on each of your websites especially your existing website. Use your existing website to invite visitors to visit your new sites.

Be careful to bookmark all your new sites and provide social bookmarking links on each site. Social bookmarking does help with exposure and will promote your exposure in search engine listings.

Create mini-pages on sites such as HubPages, Facebook, MySpace, and through the creation of Squidoo lenses. Again make sure you bookmark every Squidoo lens, Hub Page, as well as social network profiles. Make sure each of these includes one or more links to your most important website URLs.

Once your new URLs are established and listed in the search engines (allow 6 to 12 weeks for this), AND as you notice a shift in your over all visitor traffic pattern to your new URLs, ask your website developer to redirect your old poorly named URL. Any visitors to your old URL, when typing in that old URL will automatically be sent to your new site of choice.

If your old poorly chosen URL has a year or less remaining before you have to renew it, simply allow that URL to sit re-directing traffic until it’s domain registry naturally expires.

In going through this process, a person or business can improve the visibility of their business brand. A stronger online presence can be established. Search engine page ranking can be improved.

As the wind blows through the dry leaves and sage, my ear catches the eerie squeak of an old Dr’s. sign swinging from a porch gable. Mesmerized by the surrounding sounds, the scent of dust, dry vegetation, and years of weathered decay, I became uniquely entrenched by the simple Dr.’s shingle, still hanging after many years.

The letters on the old wood sign were barely readable. As the sign hung tilted, hanging now by only one chain, I allowed my mind to journey back to a distant day when a proud young Doctor first hung this emblem of future hopes and aspirations.

As I watched that old sign swing, I began to realize how in life today--decades later—many of us still hang our future hopes and aspirations on a shingle often to leave it swinging in the wind.

A few weeks ago while in a meeting with the senior partner of a major law firm, the senior partner looked at me while sitting back and in a tone of frustration began to complain about his internet presence. The firm had a great website, but something had lead the senior partner to believe, his website was not properly optimized. Their website, or electronic shingle, was out on the World Wide Web, swinging in the wind of internet traffic, but not providing much in the way of tangible results.

This week while meeting a successful banker, our conversation turned to the subject of personal belief systems which all of us have in life. Some might refer to these areas as “comfort zones”. I began to make this banker uncomfortable when I leaned forward toward her and quietly said, “I’m sure if I dug hard enough, I would discover in your own life private personal areas that you protect from anyone discovering. If I challenged those areas, I have no doubt, it would make you extremely uncomfortable or even feel quite rattled.” Sometimes the shingles we hang in life are inner, emotional shingles, meant only for our own inner sight to discover. Signs which could read, “This is my comfort zone. I don’t want you to disturb it…STAY OUT!”

Time often brings to life repetition in principles. Principles which carry with them, the full realization of cause and effect. Often we place our full hopes and aspirations on the simple exercise of posting a sign, failing to realize, the sign itself--unless seen--is nothing more than clutter.

A sign, a website, or even our inner comfort zones are nothing more than a declaration. A declaration of who you are, what you do, and what you are about? Declarations left unseen, are an investment in energy, void of results. The power lays in the arena of PRESENCE.

Presence is not wrapped up in arrogance or false claims of grandeur. Presence is an end result whereby all are aware of the existence of your shingle, having been informed of it, and as a result discovering it for ones self.

A dominating presence, a presence where the masses learn of your shingle requires forethought and strategy. How will you get your message out? How will you attract people to your website? How will you make people aware of your personal or business existence?

For the lawyer, his website challenge was not in the area of search engine optimization. The challenge for this law firm was the lack of an effective plan or strategy to make people aware of the website. His shingle (website) was simply left to hang and swing in the wind.

Many readers know I have a great history working with horses. Fall round-ups remain to this day an incredibly valuable life lesson. In range country, every fall horsemen will gather in the early morning hours to spread out individually over a large perimeter which may span miles of range country. The plan is simple. A rider and his horse will seek out lone steers, or perhaps a cow-calf unit, and upon discovery, push or herd those animals, while picking up other stragglers, down from the high country into a central holding area. Holding areas which are quite often a meadow or section of land used as a sorting pen.

In the early morning hours, the meadow or sorting pen lays totally empty, but by nightfall, hundreds of cattle can fill this area, as several riders bring their small collection of animals together to create a massive herd of cattle.

Let’s look at this analogy. What would happen if in the early morning hours, a group of horsemen gathered in the empty meadow or sorting pens, and simply called out “Here cow”? The answer is simple as absolutely nothing would happen. It requires sending out line riders, to make contact with the individual animals and draw them together into a greater collection.

Marketing on today’s internet is identical to herding cattle. The challenge remains that many of us come to our sorting pens (website) and wait there while calling out “Here cow!”

If we are going to establish a dominating presence on today’s internet, we must…ABSOLUTELY MUST…learn to release our “line riders” who can circulate through the maze on the internet, collecting and redirecting cattle (unique website visitor traffic) to our sorting pen (website).

On June 16^th, 2008 I’ll be releasing online a new publication called “Secret Magnetic Internet Marketing Strategies” . The primary focus of this new publication is to teach people how to effectively “herd cattle” online. How to effectively and properly create a dominating online presence, where you can properly move (herd) large pools of traffic to your website, blog, or personal profiles.

Today’s internet has millions upon millions of web pages listed on it. One source has used a figure of over 4 billion web pages listed on the internet. One quickly begins to realize how by simply adding another website to the internet, is not going to do much good. The reality is, without a strategy to accompany it, a lone website will get lost in the crowd. It will become a squeaky shingle swinging in the wind.

I often think back to that young doctor, and in particular, I wonder as to the nature of his thoughts when he excitedly hung his new shingle on the porch gable. The house is boarded up, the roof collapsed, the porch deck rotted out with weeds growing up from the soil below it. The town around the house, was abandonned long ago, and the dozen or so clapboard buildings, what little was left of them, declared a story of a young doctor’s hopes and aspirations, dashed by the lack of business. A shingle seldom seen.

There’s little value in a shingle that never gets seen. So let me ask you, right now…today…where is your shingle hiding? Is it time to put in place the help of “line riders”?

The Right Tools For The Right Job

To have crossed my path earlier today meant catching me going through one of my many tool boxes. I have a deep love for tools, but not just any tools.

Perhaps it’s due to being raised by a father who, in my early years was a general contractor and spent many nights at home in the basement working late hours as a cabinet maker. In fact, some of my earliest childhood memories take me back to construction sites where, as early as the age of five, I was stripping down concrete forms. Tools have always been a part of my life.

In my early adult years, I could often be found under the belly of a horse or pony plating or shoeing the animal. I still smile deeply at the scent of a burning coal forge, and pause for the sound of a hammer striking hot metal on an anvil. Today, at flea markets, my best finds are old hand-made custom forged tools, which display the work of a great blacksmith. Tools birthed for a specific purpose.

There are few treasures today that would compare to the history contained in my father’s toolboxes. As one goes through the old school long boxes of antique handsaws, and museum piece tools, one quickly gains a sense of the old ways of working wood, when compared to the many new battery operated tools available today. Tools give us a sense of where we’ve been.

While many men druel when encountered by a modern tool show, I am seldom captured by that same fever. New tools are important to each and every one of us, and yet, in their newness we have not had time to gain an appreciation for how they feel as they cut through wood, or shape iron. Inspite of our lack of experience with new tools, modern tools do tell us where we are going in industry.

Even as a tool can be made or used for every building process, each of us in life often fails to work with the right tools for the jobs that face us.

Many small or home based internet business people work with tools that are outdated. With a world filled with material that`s all a buzz about Web 2.0 (the social web), and people spending big dollars on software or programs to improve their Web 2.0 experience, many fail to realize they are using and buying outdated tools. The world of the internet has already moved beyond Web 2.0, 3.0, 3.1, and is now going strong in the world of Web 4.0 where the tools are newer, and different for the purpose ahead of us.

We can choose to work with old business tools, but we will lose time, and we will struggle as we push tools to do things they were never designed to do. Even the finest tools have their limitations.

Success today is often based on getting the job done right, as quickly and cheaply as possible. That requires cutting edge tools and the know-how to use them.

In business, many people can purchase new tools, but that alone won`t make us successful unless we know how to take those tools and put them to their best use. People have to know how to use a tool properly. There has to be a plan, a strategy, a blueprint to work from. Tools require guidance.

In recent weeks, people have been wondering where I`ve been hiding. I`ve been working with tools, and drawing a blueprint. No…I haven`t been building a coffee table, I`ve been writing a book. A book that teaches people

- The differences in Web 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, to know if YOUR pages are cutting edge or aimed at an outdated age of the internet.

- The true components of a laser sharp online marketing strategy.

- How YOU can MAGNETICALLY draw an outrageous amount of new visitors to YOUR pages.

- How to improve your defined online presence by creating a clearer online identity.

- The SECRET on how to PROPERLY pick and combine social networks, social bookmarking sites, videos, article marketing, and blogs into a POWERFUL arsenal of marketing weaponry. (I'm providing the backgrounds on over 112 social networking sites; a listing of 26 social networking sites targeted to musicians or those in businesses related to the music industry; as well as over 30 video sharing, vidcast, vlog hosting, online editors, and online video converter sites.)

- How to psychologically write YOUR web copy targeting the side of the brain that YOUR visitors use to make purchase decisions.

- Which Psychological trigger words to use when writing high-voltage innovative mouthwatering web copy.

- Which colors in YOUR online presentation are psychologically best to use and why?

- An introduction to basic Survival HTML Code language, plus how or where best to use it.

- How to step back and look at YOUR websites, social network profiles, or personal profiles through the eyes of YOUR visitors.

And FINALLY, this book teaches how to bring all these tools together in an explosive blueprint or marketing strategy.

Tools are important, but it`s really important to know how to use the right tool for the right job. That`s where many people fail. Many of us have tools in our tool box, and absolutely no skill or knowledge on how best to use them. It takes someone coming along and teaching us how to use our tools correctly.

So while it may seem to some I`ve been in hiding, I`ve been busy putting the finishing touches on ``Secret Magnetic Internet Marketing Strategies``. The book is done, and in the next week or two the website for it will be ready in preparation for a June 15^th launch. In many ways, the project (book) is finished, I`ve put my tools away for now, and finally I`m in the process of ``sweeping up around the shop``.

Tools tell us where we`ve been, giving us the ability to appreciate the history, craftsmanship, and artistry of old ways. Tools also tell us where we are going, giving us the ability to produce products more quickly, efficiently, increasing our profitability.

Are YOU working with the right tools?

Tips On How To Make Money Online

We all come to a place where it's necessary to take some down time to rest and relax. I am no different than most. The past couple of weeks I've been taking some time to finish up my most recent book. This book has exploded into a major project revealing many internet marketing strategies and marketing secrets. While the book is currently in the process of being placed into a publishable product, and will soon be available, the challenge comes in knowing where to stop adding information to this already PHENOMENAL product.

In the mean time, to help free up my schedule to finish my book, Miodrag Trajkovic has written this week's feature article.

Online Marketing Strategies - Tips On How To Make Money Online
By Miodrag Trajkovic

In any kind of business, marketing is the key to selling successfully.

You have to market it in order for people to know about their existence. You have to let them know that you are the best in the business and also give them a reason why they should buy from you.

In the real world, you will see billboards, TV, radio, and print ads as the primary way to market products and services. However, if you own an online business and you plan on marketing your business online, it's a whole new thing.

Joining forums that contains topics related to what you are selling will also help. Here, you will also find people who are looking for the things you are selling. This is a great opportunity to tell them to visit your website.

Another great way to market your website is by joining affiliate programs. Here, you will get other websites to advertise your website. This means that you won't work to market your website.

The Missing Marketing Link

By James C. Tanner -- James C. Tanner is schedule to release an incredibly revealing new book this spring, which addresses many of the critical challenges individuals and businesses are currently facing as they attempt to maximize their presence and profits in the world of the social Web 2.0, 3.0, 3.1, and 4.0. This book helps people and businesses define a clearer online identity. Over 130 social networks are discussed, plus numerous other media sharing sites, social bookmarking sites, vlogging sites, and how to capitalize on them. Basic survival HTML code is introduced in an easy to understand format. Also covered is Buzz marketing, article marketing, copy writing, the fundamentals of hypnotic sales writing, plus many other critical helps required to creating a very critical online presence. This eBook is scheduled for release in late Spring 2008.

The Missing Marketing Link

Large and growing portions of some of the most valuable business demographics are spending more of their time and attention on internet marketing strategies and procedures, but in the process they’ve lost sight of a very important now often ignored missing marketing link.

In the 1980’s before the world of Web 2.0, the marketing world was caught up in a style of marketing known as “positional marketing”. The concept behind positional marketing was simplistic. Marketing plans would try to place brands securely into the mindset of the customer demographic base, so when a random sampling was asked to name the first three products to come to mind, your brand would be listed in the top three.

Positional marketing was not about directly pushing sales, as much as cementing the brand position in the mindset of the potential customer. When that customer went shopping, they already had a product brand name firmly planted in their mind. It was a simple process of going out a grabbing it off of the shelf.

Today, with the evolving world of the social web, marketing has changed. The style of marketing has become much more socially interactive. In the process of making this change, many business people are forgetting an important missing marketing link in their marketing plan. They are forgetting to maintain an element of positional marketing in their overall marketing plans.

How does one accomplish positional marketing in social web environment?

The determining factor in any online marketing plan for the social web remains in establishing a firm and dominant PRESENCE. By establishing a clearly definable and targeted presence, any person or business can establish an effective online marketing position. The stronger the presence, the more easily recognized a business entity will be.

All the traditional SEO tactics become a small part of the behind the scenes portion of developing a presence. More importantly, the success of an effective presence campaign becomes a plan of where you appear, and how you appear.

Many people, as well as small businesses will establish on MySpace, then transfer that same strategy over to Facebook, failing to realize, Facebook is a totally different style of market place, requiring a totally different strategy, and appearance.

Again, many small businesses focus their energies on MySpace when, for example, they might be in the travel industry, and totally avoid the six social web networks which are totally dedicated to people who love to travel. Presence is about where you appear, and how you appear.

Everything you do in your marketing plan must accomplish one end result… eventual increased profits. In order to accomplish this, a plan must be created which can be followed, monitored, adjusted, reviewed, revised, reviewed, revised, reviewed, revised, until profits are attained. If you are not realizing a profit, or see on paper a date whereby you can realize a ROI (Return On Investment) then you are stuck with a plan that’s going nowhere.

In fine tuning your plan, reach out to your customer base. Through questionnaires ask them what they noticed about your advertising and make note of what went unnoticed? Stick with what works, and scrap the rest. Pay attention to complaints about your site which are registered to your webmaster, and make prompt changes. Consider involving your customers in upcoming product releases. Encourage them to submit via online contests, or vote online on new product or label designs. Reward your customers when they participate.

The internet world changes rapidly. The technology of this year will be out dated next year. Your marketing plan should be re-visited annually, preferably every six months, to be sure it’s staying current with the marketplace and the technology fueling it. If you choose through inaction to not stay on top of the trends, rest assured, your competitors will.

Creating Internet Marketing Strategies In 2008

When planning your Internet marketing strategies for 2008, don't go it alone. Free Internet marketing strategies are easy to find. The structures of your Internet marketing strategies as well as your web pages are important.

If you are familiar with marketing a traditional business, although different, Internet marketing strategies are much the same.

Why is it that many of us are still looking for a secret magic formula to Internet marketing strategies from the experts? Many of us end up using incorrect or outdated Internet marketing strategies and techniques that have us working hard but getting nowhere. The most successful Internet marketing plans integrate both Internet marketing strategies as well as traditional (offline) marketing strategies.

A critical key is learning to maximize your Internet marketing strategies. There are several solid Internet marketing strategies available, the first and most important strategy being, “If you don’t go to work, you won’t get paid!”

While it is true, the internet is still awash with marketing strategies that are re-hashed or re-vamped versions of out-dated strategies, there ARE proven and measurable Internet marketing strategies available for your business. You will have to spend some time finding them.

In this fast paced world of e-Business, only those with superior Internet Marketing strategies will survive. To look at an example of a generally successful internet marketing strategy, one needs to look no further than affiliate marketing which is certainly one of the most cost effective Internet marketing strategies available. Internet marketing strategies for the average person can at first seem to be a difficult task to overcome. It is a learning curve that requires time, and study, but it can be easily done. The great reality is, anyone can generate serious income with the right Internet marketing strategies.

Explore strategies and techniques you can use on the Internet which will enhance and support your business's overall marketing objectives. When you use all the parts of an Internet marketing strategy you can increase your search engine visibility. Building an Internet based business as with every business requires dedication, tenacity and creative marketing strategies.

Bloggers around the world are finding its easy to make money working online. With many Blog Hosting sites now paying people for blog postings, making money through blogging has become simpler and more efficient than having to rely on the old system of pay per click advertisers, or affiliate marketing advertisements. Now bloggers can add $250 to $450 per month to their income from a single blog just by posting entries. Blog entries that can promote that the writer’s website, products, or services, making it a marketing strategy that literally pays for itself.

Many online businesses tend to make the mistake of not extending their Internet marketing strategies beyond search engines. Lots of people will push their strategies far beyond search engines and make serious money. Article writing or video submissions are two of the most common approaches for accomplishing this technique. Now with the era of Web 4.0 arriving at our doorstep, and the new age of media rich social media, new opportunities to capitalize on marketing through the use of mobile devices will take a greater central theme.

Learning to work from home and to make money on the Internet is something the average non-skilled person can do, and do well. No matter who you are, no matter your skill set, no matter your available resources, one truth must be taken to heart. If you cannot be found, then you cannot sell, and therefore, cannot make money.

The secret to staying alive on the internet is learning to write quality and original content. Do this, and the money will follow. If you’re worried about poor writing skills, then relax, in this day and age of software applications writing has become very automated. To demonstrate my point, this article has been written using a trial version of a new software. One keyword phrase was used, along with five sub-keywords. The entire article was written in less than 10 minutes.

When it comes to evaluating Internet marketing strategies, use common sense when you are buying eBooks, programs, business plans, products, etc. Sometimes what you really need is the “No Fluff Internet Business Marketing Strategies” and the tough advice most people would hesitate to give for fear of losing a sale. Understand your business concept and direction. The help products you buy, may not apply in totality, but from each one, you might pull 10 to 20 percent of information which can benefit your business. When talking to successful Internet based business people, one common thread of information tends to arise, they all have a library of varying material on Internet marketing strategies. They do not buy one strategy product and stop there. They study a collection of ideas, and from those ideas, create a customized plan targeted for their specific business.
