WEB 2 MARKETING

Jan 19

Some fairly recent research from Google Insight searches shows some startling facts for the Countries with the highest interest/ranking. The sites are as follows.
MY SPACE.
1. United States.
2. Puerto Rico.
3. Australia.
4. UK.
FACEBOOK.
1. Turkey.
2. Canada.
3. UK.
4. South Africa.
TWITTER.
1. Japan.
2. Taiwan.
3. United States.
4. Singapore.
These facts broadly indicate that social networks are truly global affairs.
But the problem is that social sites are not keen on marketers who blatantly ‘pimp’ on their sites, so be careful not to get banned or cautioned.
So, what can we do. Make friends by offering free advice and as Alex recommends give away free prodcts. The more you help people the more they will give in return. Make recommendations and links to other sites, without expecting anything inreturn.
Humor goes a long way in establishing friendly links and adds to your marketing profile.

Most importantly, maintain an honest approach. Your new contacts will quickly spot any dishonesty….so honesty is the best policy every time to get guaranteed web traffic.

USEFUL TIP.

I sometimes need to use the € (Euro) symbol. I am running Windows XP on my fairly new Dell Laptop and have a keyboard without this symbol.  Why there is no € (Euro) symbol on modern keyboards seems strange to me, as I reckon that there are nearly as many people using this symbol as there are those using the $ and £ signs.  Anyway where there’s a will there’s a way! Here’s how using two methods…….PRESS Ctrl+ Alt +4 and you have it,  OR if you prefer Alt Gr  + 4 - the Alt key.. I believe this method will also work when using ‘Vista’!
