Sneaky Little Business Owners Using Blogs
Hey there,
It’s no doubt that many business owners today are learning the secrets to successful social network marketing. Some will be successful with the right training and some won’t.
One thing I do know for sure is that many are now sneaking around using WordPress Blogs as a content hub to drive tons of traffic right to their personal blog.
You might be asking yourself, why a WordPress Blog?
WordPress Blogs are designed to rank better and have special built in features- no other has!
Blogs have a Ping feature of which updates Google and other websites linked every-time you add new content on your blog. Blogs also allow you to share your content with all your social groups such as Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and LinkedIn allowing you to reach 1000s with a click of a button. If you are not signed up with these social groups you should do so right away. It is free to set up an account.
In order to be successful with a WordPress blog there are 3 important facts that you must know about what makes a blog popular.
The first fact is linking to other sites. When you do this, you are increasing popularity with Google and other sites.
The second important fact is the most on topic content. When you are writing an article it is important that you stick with a main point and make sure your article is relevant to the main point.
The third and most important fact is be original. If your content is unique and original, Google will notice this and notice you a lot faster. Keep the Ping feature in mind when considering these 3 important facts!

The Importance Of Online Reputation Management
The World Wide Web can be a scary place for a company. It’s an open mic night for anyone who wants to say something negative about your company. Since there are so many opportunities for people to disparage your company it is important that you are constantly engaging in online reputation management to keep consumers from turning on your company.
Online reputation management involves monitoring what is showing up in regards to your company on search engines as well as looking for content that can be harmful for your company. When you find things that aren’t exactly ideal for your company you need to address the problem and get positive content at the top of search engine results while lowering the negative results. This is similar to when a company engages in search engine optimization, except the purpose is different. Search engine optimization involves promoting positive content and getting your pages to the top of a results page, reputation management seeks to drive content down the results pages and hide the content from potential search engine users.
The way a company responds and engages in reputation management can also define how consumers see them. Sometimes companies pose as customers on review sites and give positive reviews to their own products so people will disregard the negative reviews. This is considered unethical and should be avoided because if your company is found doing this it will just lead to a bigger headache for you and more negative publicity.
A good way to respond to negative reviews is to contact the reviewer and see if there’s anything you can do to mend the problem. Consumers like to see that a company cares about them and will appreciate that you listened to their concerns and took the time to resolve the situation. Sending free products to prominent reviewers can also help your company because the reviewers are thought leaders and can help sway the opinion of your product dramatically.
Online reputation management is increasingly becoming more important by the day. When people are making a big purchase they will go online and look for product reviews to see which brand is right for them. It is important to make sure the things being said about your product on search engine results and on websites is positive, not negative.
It is important to use reputation management to keep individuals and companies engaged in your business. Using a search engine tool is also very important.

Ten Ways To Increase Your Twitter Followers
Let your followers know what retweeting is and encourage them to retweet your links. Retweeting pushes your @username into foreign social graphs, resulting in clicks back to your profile. Track your retweets using retweetist. Fill out your bio. Your latest tweets and @replies don’t mean much to someone that doesn’t know you. Your bio is the only place you have to tell people who you are. Also, your bio is displayed on Twitter’s Suggested Users page. Leaving it blank or non-descriptive does not encourage individuals to add you.
As @claydarrohn says, “link it up.” Place links to your Twitter profile everywhere. Link it on your Digg, LinkedIn, Facebook, blog, email signature, and everywhere else you live online. Also, check out the great feedburner-like badges from TwitterCounter for your blog.
Tweet about your passions in life and #hash tag them. Quality content coupled with a simple way to find it never fails. If others appreciate your content, they’ll add you. Learn more about #hash tagging so you know what you are doing with them.
Bring your twitter account into the physical world. Every time I give a talk, speak on a panel, shoot a podcast, present slides, or hand out business cards, I come up with a way to broadcast or display my twitter account.
Take pictures. Pictures are heavily retweeted/spread around. One from US Airways Flight 1549 has been viewed 350,000+ times. For mobile pics use iPhone apps such as Tweetie or Twitterific, both which support on the go uploading.
Start a contest. @jasoncalacanis offered a free macbook air if he reached the #1 most followed spot. That never happened, but Jason added thousands of followersbrilliant.
Follow the top twitter users and watch what they tweet. Pay attention to the type of content they send out and how they address their audiences. Reply to/get involved in #hash tag memes. search.twitter.com lists the hot ‘trending topics. Look for the #hash topics and jump in on the conversation (see #4 for links to #hash instructions). Track your results. TwitterCounter will show you how many new users you’re following per day and Qwitter will email you when someone unfollows you after a tweet.
