Automating Social Network Submissions

Apr2

Social Poster is a new online application that creates an easy regimen for you (as per your criteria) to submit your article to many different social networks. You can specify to include social networks with or without dofollow links, eliminate websites by category and language, or choose Pligg based networks.

You can of course select from Digg, StumbleUpon, Del.icio.us, Reddit, Newvine, Propeller, Google Bookmarks, and you can choose from many more social networking websites.

I’ll be using Social Poster to bookmark and spread the fire about itself! (And of course to submit my own articles to other social bookmarking websites.)

Reading Forums Isn’t the Proper Use

Mar24

You should be spending more of your time involved in online message board communities posting information and adding value to the discussions and using that leverage to gain links and readers for your own website. Lots of professional bloggers build their authority and popularity by having a fanbase on popular forums related to their niche.

Sure, certain posts on message boards have hoards of useful information and tips, but most rumors and shinfo (shitty information, something that isnt needed and doesnt relate to the topic at hand) find their roots in some frenzied discussion in a thread on a message board.

You should avoid getting sucked into the pointless conversations and e-drama that has a frequent connection with the anonymous users of any online community, unless you have to wade through that muck in an actual need of researching information for a problem you actually have.

Save yourself a headache and tons of wasted time by being brief and to the point. Ask what you want, and contribute back.

5 Reasons Your Blog is Choking

Mar11

1. So I know your mouth works fine, but will you listen to what I have to say?

So many webmasters are puzzled because they can’t attract the same audience someone else can, or they can’t get the same links someone else can, or they can’t solve the same problem someone else can, and are forever baffled. Well, you already have the best examples to gain experience from, SOMEONE ELSE. Make sure to read other blogs in your niche and profit from their knowledge and past experiences.

2. You have something to share, but no one knows you or respects your opinion.

This is because you don’t network with other bloggers and webmasters in your area of expertise. You’re a nobody. If you help people solve their problems, they will look to you in the future for more help. If you initiate a conversation with someone, they will recognize you in the future as well.

3. You don’t actively engage your readers.

Maybe it isn’t your style because you are a journalist or reporter blogger type … but always make sure to respond to comments your readers make, and try to bait them into conversation by asking questions or requesting feedback.

4. You haven’t set a goal for yourself to achieve.

You can’t just say, “I want it to make me rich!” and not expect there to be pit stops on the way. Set monthly quotas for yourself, outline realistic traffic and profit goals and do your best to match or exceed them.

5. I can’t find my way around your website.

An easy to use, uncluttered interface is the way to go. Sometimes a website I’m visiting might have all the information I need, but I can’t get to it or the page is so obscured by funky styling and obnoxious advertisements that I don’t even read a word before I’m looking for that little red x.

I’m curious, did your blog or website fall into any of the five? Did I help you stop choking?
