Internet Marketing Community Report

If you don’t know Jack, you must have been living in the dark internet ages.

And Static web sites is your game. The vast majority of websites are still static – meaning they simply do not allow interaction with other people - a very anti-social act I must say. And if you stay there, you are out of internet luck. These days, it’s akin to being adrift at sea well off the shipping lanes. No one will find you.

If you know Jack at all, you will understand the power and value of being social and interactive websites. Check out how not be left behind with this simple trick to get links – Jack Humphreys Track Boost: 5 Minutes to Killer BackLinks.
In fact, it’s social sites – websites that are by their very design become naturally interactive. Most popular are the blogs and sometimes specially designed membership sites or social networking site giants like Facebook or Myspace. These days, You Tube or Metacafe or Google Video and a host of others get the lion’s share of the world wide web’s attention. Social marketing is simply the best way to go.

The best way I can demonstrate how it all works is by introducing you to one man that describes it best of all. Well, this is a strange way to write about an Online Community or a social network but Jack Humphrey.com epitomises social networking. He through his site is a social network of followers. Let’s see why: to begin, just type into the search engines Jack Humphrey and you’ll see that he has already developed a Guru personna when it comes to Social Networks and Social Marketing.

There’s the Authority Site Center which has over 400 members when membership sites were still in it’s infancy.

Then there’s the Content Desk which he co-founded with Mark Braunstein, Power Linking series of courses, the Authority Black Book, consultant for Netsmart Media, and…and…I don’t want to post his resume here but here’s a list of his coaching and articles he has written about: Online marketing, linking, buzz, PR, search engine optimization, coaching, consulting, project management, brainstorming, technology breakthroughs, and looking to the future of online marketing every day of the week for the past 10 years and counting. Of course we won’t forget that he is all over the internet’s social networking and bookmarking sites. Phew!

How does one find him? It’s easy. He’s everywhere. You can learn from his tips (these alone are worth their weight in gold) on his blogs or sign in for his Friday Traffic Report - this is his central site. Also, join his community like Social Marketing Central – a Ning community he’s developing.

Now, one great piece of advice Jack gives is to help each other out as a community of independent website owners, regardless of whether you have a blog or not. Just favourite each other on bookmarking sites. Check out “Powerlinks” on this site and you’ll see what I mean. It’s a win win win situation for all.

To the Editor from Django.

What the…a note came through my news clip. Why is something so irreverent coming to my attention?
The note said,”Wealth Building Secrets for Prosperity Obsessed People.” For an Online Community, the wealth building secrets part is quite typical, but what’s this about for prosperity obsessed people?

Searching through some SEO stuff, it seems to be a rather small niche type of a target. I was about to dismiss it when something about the site peaked my interest. Is this another money maker?

The niche perhaps was not so small after all. In fact, on closer analysis, it started to become larger and larger. Infact, it appeared to be very cleverly positioned to be a cross-over type of niche. It focuses it self on a target audience (the Obsessed People) but really it concentrates on Wealth Building through Personal Development. Now, who isn’t obsessed about wealth? I know I am. And so is everyone else. And there are times in our lives when we simply are more obsessed than at other times. This makes the niche suddunly look like a large chunk of the planet. Next, the site reaches out to people via a variety of media. There’s the Online Community, there’s the forum, there’s the blog, there’re the articles, there’s the book and I think a video appears to be coming. Hmmm….Now let’s see what else makes it tick.

First of all, it is an extremely eye catching design – must have blown some moolah for this.

Secondly, the navigation is very well designed – I can’t quite place the platform but it is quite amazingly put together and very robust.

Thirdly, the site is so well designed that there must be something really serious going on here – this is certainly a decent budget project, nothing cheapie about it.

Fourthly, I started to read (ok, I don’t only read comics OK?) some of the stuff there – the quality of the stuff is amazing and this people are giving the public a free read and downloads too. People sell this stuff you know.

Fifthly, that free membership they are giving away – with blog (you can rss), articles, free downloads, profile and friends page, forums, tutorials…holy cow – a free membership and you can get started with your wealth building already.

Oh, never mind the numbered points. They have serial millionaires to do the tutorials and there’s that series of 10 books, the Ten Pillars of Wealth, yet to be released onto the world. Members get them first.

There will be paid memberships but the price has yet to be announced. You can also have affiliate rights and a 30 day money back guarantee too…

Make no mistake, with headlines that have Prosperity Obsessed People and Serial Millonares in them, I have that distinct feeling they are going to make a killing here. I’ll most certainly keep an eye out for their affiliate right$$$.

Social Networking websites and Online Communities

are all the rage these days. They are coming online by the thousands worldwide every day.

So, what’s your News? What makes your Social Website unique? What makes your Online Community so special? Tell the world about it.

To make what you have to say that much more fun, we hold weekly contests for the best blog.

What are Social Networking Websites and Online Communities?

Essentially they are both the same. Just a couple of years ago, some people may have divided them into the two categories mainly from the way they operated.

Social Networking Websites tend to be dominated by free to sign up sites that are hosted by huge corporations, e.g. Facebook, My Space, and even You Tube has become just such a mega-site via video stories and commentaries.

Online Communities tended to be websites with special content that people would pay for. For example you will find courses, specialty memberships, paid membership sites, events and anything else you care to name these days. But lately, there have been websites that have really become free membership sites and are really mini Social Media sites like Myspace or YouTube websites. Thus the roles and the terms have become somewhat blurred and used interchangeably.

This Blog site is thus to allow anyone report their favourite Online Community or Social Networking website.

Please post according to the following guidelines:

1) Your favourite Social Network or Online Community websites; we allow 1 unique URL link per post.

2) Tell us in 250 to 1,000 words about the uniqueness of that website and why you like or love it.

3) Strictly no porn, drugs, ware-z, pharmaceutical/drug, spam websites. All posts of these sites will all be deleted without notice.

That’s it! Have fun and be as creative as possible. It’s your chance to demonstrate and showcase your sites. We will be actively using the search engines to promote this site for your benefit.

Admin.

P.S. All posts and comments will be moderated. No naughty words, no name calling, no rudeness, otherwise, your post will go poof! Far more quickly than you can post it. OK?
