<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">If you want to see examples of the great information that they have been giving away for free, then I invite you to simple follow this link:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span><a href="http://www.stompernet.net/goingnatural2"><span style="color: #0000ff;">www.stompernet.net/goingnatural2</span></a><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>At this one link you should have access to a large number of the free information that they have made available.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Now there are a good handful of websites that are already giving away information for free, and they have discovered why this method of marketing works so well.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>But I just wanted to point out that many of the REALLY successful websites are giving away information so great that they are making extraordinary amounts of internet profits.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Basically, what I am saying is that it almost seems like the better your free information is, the more money you are going to make.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">But why is this?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Why if I give you tons of free conference calls, eBooks, videos and mini courses, information that other companies would probably charge you hundreds of dollars for, if I do all this why will I make a whole lot of income?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>I believe this is because people have the mindset that if the free information is so great, then the paid information must be spectacular.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>This puts a lot of pressure on us as a business to create the best information that we can provide.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>But, as a business owner, isn’t that what I should be doing anyway?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>And, if I am providing outstanding information, then I have the right to charge a bit more than a mediocre company would, right?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Think about this:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>If you come to my website and I give you a free weekly newsletter for signing up on my auto responder, then that would be worth it to you if I was giving you some great information each week.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>But if I am only giving you one email per week, are you going to think that the program that I am selling you is worth $1,000?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Nope!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>If I were you, I wouldn’t expect to pay more than $34 on a website that was sending me an occasional email each week as the “free info.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>But, if each week I invite you to a couple of conference calls, and every few weeks I am sending you free 50 page pdfs with valuable information, and if I am constantly creating great videos you can view for free, then could I justify the $1,000 cost for my program?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>The answer for most businesses would be a confident “yes.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>So, what is the whole point of what I am teaching you hear.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>What I am trying to teach you is that the more great information you can give away for free, the more likely you are going to be to make huge internet profits.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>And if you give away a minimal amount of information for free each week, then it will be pretty tough to justify a price of $1,000, $500, or even $200 for whatever product or service you are selling.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is somewhat of a gamble to attempt to achieve free viral advertising for your websites.  I say this because it can be very time consuming and your results are not guaranteed.  I have created a number of different posts on this blog about free viral advertising and free viral marketing.  Those posts will teach you the specific ways to achieve this free viral advertising, but in this post, I want to explain why you must attempt to get this viral advertising for free if you want real online success.</p>
<p>Reason #1:  Paying for your advertising can break the bank.  There are a number of internet marketers out there with great products and services that can really help people out, but at times, paying even 30 cents per click can make it so that little profits are generated.  Also, with the growing competition of PPC advertising, you are sometimes lucky if you can still pay 30 cents per click.  Paying for your advertising should just be the start, and then you&#8217;ll want to start getting some of your advertising for free through the free viral techniques that we teach.</p>
<p>Reason #2:  You may never get past a few hundred visitors to your site each day if your site doesn&#8217;t go viral.  How much money would you like to make with your new site?  6 figures, 7 figures?  Can you make even 6 figures with only a few hundred visitors per day?  If people don&#8217;t tell people, don&#8217;t tell people, who tell other people about your site, then you&#8217;ll likely never get thousands of visitors to your site each day.  </p>
<p>Reason #3:  Part of free viral advertising comes from the fact that you are benefiting the online community with something.  If you are helping people and solving people&#8217;s problems, then some people will tell others about your site.  If you don&#8217;t do your market research and then create a site that truly helps people, then how do you expect to achieve online success?  With the large amount of competition across the web, you will want to have at least a small amount of free viral advertising.  This will act as a gauge to show you that you are on your way to success.</p>
<p>So, these are the 3 reasons why you must take this &#8220;gamble&#8221; to try and make your site go viral.  You&#8217;ve got to work at it.  There are so many people trying to make a buck online nowadays that if you don&#8217;t take this gamble, then you likely aren&#8217;t trying hard enough.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="line-height: 14.25pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #000000; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">When people hear about getting viral marketing for their websites, they usually get a bit confused.  This confusion comes because you can&#8217;t control if you site goes viral or not.  This being said, you must understand that there is no step-by-step formula for getting viral traffic to your site.  The &#8220;steps&#8221; for free viral marketing are more conceptual than anything else.  </span></span></p>
<p style="line-height: 14.25pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #000000; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Now that you understand that the &#8220;tips&#8221; for free viral marketing are conceptual, I can share these concepts with you.  The more you understand these concepts, the more free viral traffic you will receive.  Here they are:</span></span></p>
<p style="line-height: 14.25pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #000000; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Concept #1:  Content is king.  Think about the last time you shared a website, book, or movie with someone.  Why did you share it with them?  It was likely because you were very impressed with the content.  If you want free viral marketing for your site, then the free content you provide needs to be so exceptional that people will want to share it with others.</span></span></p>
<p style="line-height: 14.25pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #000000; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Concept #2:  People love free stuff.  The more quality &#8220;free stuff&#8221; that you can give away on your site, then the more people will share your site with others.  Let me prove this to you:  If on one of my sites I was giving away free cars in exchange for a name and mailing address, then how fast would you tell your friends and family about my site?  I know that if anyone had a site like this that was truly giving away free cars, then I would immediately tell everyone I knew to make sure they got their free cars as well.  I use this example just to show you that the more things you give away free, the more people will tell others about your site.  You don&#8217;t need to give away tangibles, this can be free eBooks, mini courses, coupons, etc.  </span></span></p>
<p style="line-height: 14.25pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #000000; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Concept #3:  If they can profit from it, then they will share your website even more.  You understand this concept perfectly if you have any type of affiliate program for your site.  If people can make money by sharing your site, and if they are convinced that it will be worth their time, then they will share.  </span></span></p>
<p style="line-height: 14.25pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #000000; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">These are the basic three concepts behind getting free viral marketing for your website.  As you can see, there are no step-by-step instructions.  It&#8217;s through these concepts that the free traffic will come.  Study these concepts and test them out on your own site, and you will likely start to generate that free viral traffic to your site.  </span></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">The concept of viral marketing is one that a few people have trouble wrapping their heads around, and I believe that the reason for this is that there is not magical list of things that you can do to make sure your viral marketing works.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Why is this?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Well, the main concept behind viral marketing is that you are getting other people to share the news about your website or business, so you can’t force that to actually happen.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>But, I am here to tell you that even though you can’t force viral marketing to happen for your business, there are a couple of concrete concepts that you can implement to greatly increase your chances of viral marketing success.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">The first thing you will want to do involves the concept of gifting.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>In most cases you will want to give away information that is free since that will not cost you money, but in other businesses you may want to give away free samples, coupons, subscriptions, etc.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Let me give you a great example of gifting that will generate more sales along with your goal of successful viral marketing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Dan Dimit and I sell information on our website </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;"><a href="http://www.thefreetrafficformula.com/"><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">www.TheFreeTrafficFormula.com</span></a></span><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>But, before we sell, we give away a lot of information for free.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>In fact, we want people to see great results from the free stuff before they decide to buy.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>So, Dan and I give away free eBooks and conference calls.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>We also share a lot of great information in our mini course.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>We also tell people about great software that they can get in order to help them drive even more free traffic to their websites.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>All of this free information was designed to be great, and it was designed to help people start generating a good amount of free traffic before they decide to buy our product:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>The Free Traffic Formula.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>We have designed things so that you are getting so much value for free, that we think you would be rather selfish not to tell others about this free information, especially because other websites may charge you hundreds of dollars for this information that we are giving away for free.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>As a result, we expect that because we have implemented the concept of gifting so well, that people will tell others about our website so that others can experience these free materials.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>We want people to think that if the free information is this great, that it must be even greater when they pay for our product.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>And guess what, it is!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">O.K., so if you use the concept of gifting correctly for your businesses, then it should generate free leads and traffic and it should also create some really great word of mouth or viral marketing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>So, now for the second way to create viral website traffic.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>It is actually through a concept that I already mentioned.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Remember that Dan and I give away free eBooks when people visit our website.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Well, these are eBooks that we have created as viral eBooks.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>This means that we give them away for free, and we also give people free redistribution and resale rights with each copy that is given away.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>We also make sure that we have a great eBook cover created for these viral eBooks so that people can use that image in their own marketing if they decide to give our eBooks away as free bonuses on their own websites.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>When you create these viral eBooks, you can make them as long or as short as you want.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Since I am giving it away for free, I try to keep it around 50 pages in length with good solid content.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>I will include maybe a few affiliate links in this book, plus I will make sure to include links to my websites.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>As a result, if people give my book away or sell it, it sends free traffic and affiliate sales back to me.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Of course, if I create a viral eBook, I can’t force anyone to share it with others. But, if I set things up correctly, then there are good chances that some people may give my book out for free to their emailing lists.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>So, if my book is given away for free by the right people, then that can easily equate to 10’s of thousands of additional visits to my websites.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  So, w</span>hat you will want to do is implement these techniques in your online businesses because you will greatly increase your chances of success in the world of viral marketing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">You know, a list of 1,000 subscribers is great, but it normally isn’t going to create a 6 figure income.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>In order to create a list that is going to build you a 6 or 7 figure income, what you really need is 10’s of thousands of subscribers.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Also, you need your list to be the right kind of list.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>If you start to build the wrong list, then you are going to make few sales.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>In my opinion, one of the worst types of lists that you can build is people that are looking for giveaways.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>It is easy to accidentally start building a list of a bunch of freebie seekers, and once you get that list to a certain point, and sales aren’t flowing in like they should, then you will need to switch gears in order to make sure that your list is the being built the correct way.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">Now, this short article isn’t about attracting the correct people to your list, but this article is designed to help teach you some tricks to virally building your list.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>What you really want is for your list to grow larger and larger, and you want to get that list to the point where you can’t stop that list from growing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>I can think of a few internet marketers who have successfully done this, and what seems to be one of their biggest tricks in creating a viral list is through setting up an amazing affiliate program.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">Setting up an affiliate program can take some time and effort, but if you do it right, people will automatically start visiting your website, and you will make a whole lot more sales.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>One important thing though:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Make sure that you are very generous with your affiliate program.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>If you are selling a $29 digital product, and you only offer a 30% commission, then people are only making about $9 each time someone buys through them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Most affiliate marketers will agree that this is a very unappealing program.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>But, if you have a $97 digital product, and you offer a generous 75% commission, then that is about $70 made per sale.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>I would pick the 75% commission program over the 30% program any day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>By the way, if you are selling digital products, then setting up this type of affiliate program through ClickBank can be very easy for you to do.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">O.K., so other than setting up great affiliate programs, there are other ways to create a viral list for your business.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>One of my favorite ways is to create viral content on my website.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>For example, if I tell you that you are going to get free eBooks, free conference calls and a free mini course on my website, all related to a topic of your interest, then that gives you a very compelling reason to visit my website and join my list.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Now, if that content is as great as I say it is, and if that content is good enough that people would probably sell it for hundreds of dollars, then there is a good chance that you may tell someone else about my website.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Achieving this word of mouth advertising is viewed as “hard to do” for most people.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>And I will admit, if you are a lazy marketer, then this is really hard to do.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>But, if you put your heart and soul into the content that you are offering, and if you strive to make this content the best free content in your niche, then the word of mouth marketing will come and your list will grow virally by the thousands. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">Daniel Pereira</span></span></p>

It’s every video marketer’s dream:  That their video will get passed from person to person all across the web, bringing massive exposure for them and their business!  The only problem?  People aren’t very good at sharing, And even “perfect” videos may only get shared by a few people.  The solution?  Create each video so that [...]]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: left;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"> </p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">It’s every video marketer’s dream:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>That their video will get passed from person to person all across the web, bringing massive exposure for them and their business!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>The only problem?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>People aren’t very good at sharing, And even “perfect” videos may only get shared by a few people.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>The solution?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Create each video so that your video is “viral” to the video sharing sites, or in other words, create ways to make the video sharing sites think that your content is worth sharing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>You see, the video sharing sites are your friends, and if a normal person won’t share your video with the world, a video sharing website just might.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>But the video sharing site will only share your video with tons of people if you get that site to think that your video is really, really good.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Luckily, through my research I have been able to see how you can “trick” the video sharing sites into thinking that your video is better than everyone else&#8217;s, and the cool think is that this “trick” is considered to be a 100% legit.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>I would never teach you one of those many black hat tricks!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">So, what is this “trick” and why is it legit?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Well, the answer is actually so simple, that you aren’t going to believe it!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>You see, I have discovered through my research how to easily get tons of viewers to rank, comment or share your video.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>And if you have a video with lots of rankings and comments, then normal people may not share your video, but the video sharing sites will think your video is really great, so these sites will give your video more than average exposure.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Drum roll please!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>The simple trick is to ask people during your videos to rank, comment, or share your video with people!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Guess what happens when you simply follow this one step?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>You will get a lot more comments and I have seen many videos get around 1 out of 30 people to simply rank the video!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>And these are really great numbers!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>You know that really famous “hahaha” video?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>The one with the baby that laughs hysterically while his father makes a “boing” sound.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Well, at the time that I am writing this article, it has about 50 millions views.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>And only about 1 out of 350 people have given this video a ranking.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>People really love this video and only 3 out of every 1,000 viewers gives it a rank!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>What is wrong with people?</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Well, obviously there isn’t anything wrong with people, the only problem here is that people WON”T REMEMBER to rank a video if you don’t remind them to!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Most people will watch videos online for a long time, and they won’t even remember about some of the ranking systems that are available, that is, unless YOU REMIND THEM!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Now, let’s say that you have a really great video that shares some great info with people, without reminding them of the ranking system, they will more than likely not give your video a ranking from the numbers we have seen.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>But if you simply ask them to rank, comment, or share your video, and if they liked you video, then why wouldn’t they thank you by taking the 1 second to rank your video?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>The real answer is that most people WILL take that one second to rank your video if you ask them to.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>And if lots of people are ranking your video, then the video sharing sites will get the impression that people find your video interesting.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>As a result, the video sharing sites will “share” your video more often and they can make your marketing videos “viral” for you!</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">Today I saw a blog marketing tip and it really struck me that this technique was so simple, but is at the same time very effective.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>It is a technique that I plan on implementing very soon!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>You see, people are in the habit of placing icons on their blogs and websites that allow people to bookmark the content through different social bookmarking websites such as </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Tahoma;"><a href="http://del.icio.us/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Del.icio.us</span></a>, <a href="http://www.furl.net/"><span style="color: #0000ff;">www.furl.net</span></a>, and Yahoo Bookmarks.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Needless to say, this is a really good idea!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>The more your blog and/or website is bookmarked, the more free exposure your blog will get across the web.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Tahoma;">Now, just the simple act of placing those icons doesn’t mean that you will get free viral marketing for your blog.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Your chances are higher by using these icons, but it still takes someone a little bit of effort to go ahead and decide to bookmark your website.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>But what I saw this one person do on their blog is probably the most effective viral marketing technique that I have ever seen for your blog!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>What did this person do?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>He simply said the magic words, and I quote “Please Bookmark,” and then he supplied the icons.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Now, most people wouldn’t find these words particularly interesting, but what this person did reminded me of a really effective technique that people use in video marketing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>You see, a lot of people will ask people at the end of their videos to simply rank, comment, or share the video with other people.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>It is not odd to see a video with this request to have 1 out of 30 people at least rank the video.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>When comparing these numbers to videos that don’t ask you to rank, comment, or share the video, many of these videos struggle to get 1 out of 200 people to rank the video, and it may sound silly of me to suggest this, but I think the reason why is that people will tons more likely to rank or share your video if you simply just ask them to do so! </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Tahoma;">So, what does this mean for a blog or website?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Yes folks!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>I am suggesting that if you simply ask people kindly to bookmark your blog, then they will be a whole lot more likely to do it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Now, my hypothesis is that if your blog post has some really great content, and THEN you ask them to bookmark your page, you will probably have the highest chances of people bookmarking your webpage.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>I believe that if people feel like that you provided them with that great content, then they might even feel like that they owe you the favor to simply bookmark your webpage.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>And if you get enough people to do this, then you will get even more and more free traffic to your website.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  Your blog will get ranked higher and higher on the social bookmarking sites and in a way it will &#8220;go viral.&#8221;  </span>And the funny thing is, it will all be because you said the magic words!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>(P.S. Don’t forget to say the other magic words as well… thank you!)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Oh yeah, and if you like this post, then please bookmark this page.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Thank you!</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">I almost didn’t even realize what I had done.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>It just came so naturally to me even though it is something that I maybe do only about 1% of the time.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>In fact, I almost felt like I got “tricked” into doing it!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>But at the same time, I felt o.k. about doing it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>You see, I gave a 5 star rating for this guy’s YouTube video, just because he asked me to!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">Now, I’ll admit that this video was a pretty good video, and it actually deserved a rating, but the funny thing is that every day I’ll view a good handful of great informative videos, and I won’t give those videos a rating.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>The rating system with most of the video sharing sites help these sites determine which videos are of great value.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>If a certain video gets a lot of ratings and comments, then that means that the video will normally get more and more exposure.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>So, if you have a way of getting people to rate and comment on your videos, then this means that your videos will get ranked even higher!</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">So, here is the magic formula for making all of this happen:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Just simply ask for to rate and comment on your video.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>That’s it!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>You see, I did a little bit of research and found that when people actually ask for your to rate and comment of their video, a lot of the time they will at least rate the video for you, just because you asked!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>That is what I did.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>I rated this guy’s video because he asked me to.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Most of the time I am so busy that I don’t even remember that there is a rating system, but when he asked me to rate his video within the video, I was reminded and I simply gave him a rating without thinking.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">So, when it comes to viral video marketing, the magic words are simply “please” and “thank you.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Simply thanking people for watching your video and asking them to please comment and rank your video will get your video more and more exposure.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Also, if you ask people to share your video with others, then they will more than likely remeber to share your video if it is worth sharing.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">So why does this work and will this always work?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Well, I’ll be the first to tell you that this will not always work, and the first reason why is because most people ask for you to rate, share, or comment on the video at the very end of the video.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>And if you video is garbage, then almost nobody will see the end of your video.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>So, there is an important psychological aspect that you need to include when you ask someone to share, rate, or comment on your video.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>You need to make the viewer feel like that you have provided them will something valuable as they watched your video.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>This is especially easy with a “how to” video.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Think about this:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>If I created a really detailed “how to” video that taught you how to easily make an extra $100 today, then my guess would be that you would be very thankful for this information.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Now, if I simply asked you a favor at the end of the video, a favor that would just take anywhere from 1 second to a couple of minutes (your choice by-the-way) then would you at least do me the 1 second favor?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>In most cases, most people would at least do the 1 second favor, and when I talk about a 1 second favor, I just mean simply giving my video a rating, and if my video even just gets a bunch of ratings, then my video will get ranked higher and higher, given my video more and more views and allowing that video to be shared with more and more viewers.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">Daniel Pereira</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">One of the most important numbers for your website will be your value per visitor, and even if you have a very high value per visitor, you still may make any profits.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>If your current VPV is 30 cents, and you are paying Google 30 cents per click for your advertising, then you aren’t making anything.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>But on the same token, let’s pretend you took the time to implement a few viral marketing tactics for your website, and let’s pretend that you starting to get 300 free website visitors per day.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>That would mean a $90 profit each day for your business.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>That’s $2,700 per month and $32,850 per year in profits.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>There are 3 sure-fire ways to get this viral traffic to your website and I want to share them with you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">One of the most popular ways for getting free viral traffic to your websites is by creating a viral eBook; the only problem is that many people do it all wrong.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Many people will write a book report and call it an eBook.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>What I mean by this is that many people will write a 30 page guide, put everything is 18 point font, give people resale and master distribution rights, and call it good.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Now, some people write really great 30 page eBooks with killer content, but in the majority of cases, if you really want your viral eBook to be shared with everyone, then a 30 page “book report” isn’t going to work!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">So, here’s the real secret to creating a great viral eBook:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>You are going to want to make the content so great that you would find people across the web selling similar content for $30, $50, $100 or more.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>You want people to read your book and then think to themselves that the information was so great that they would have been willing to pay for the information.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>When people think this to themselves, then they will want to include your eBook as a free bonus on their site, give it away, or resell your eBook for a profit.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>You will mention your websites and maybe include a few affiliate links in your eBook so that you get free traffic and maybe make some extra income for your efforts.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">   </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">A second very popular way for you to create free viral marketing for your website is to provide great resources on your site.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>It is very popular to see sites giving away free eCourses or newsletters.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>I have done this a number of times and it works very well.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>You can also give away your viral eBooks, free recorded calls, coupons, free reports, etc.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Basically, you want to provide tons of resources with high perceived value that you can deliver electronically, making the only cost to you your time.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Providing people with these great free offers usually automatically assures that you will get word of mouth advertising.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Remember that content is king, and that especially goes for viral marketing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">A third sure-fire technique to brining free viral traffic to your websites is by creating viral videos. I admit that this is not an easy task to accomplish, but if you put in some effort, then it can all be worth it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Here are a few tips:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>First, make sure that after you have creating your “amazing video” that you include within that video a compelling offer for people to visit your website and learn more.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Second, ask people to share your video with friends and ask them to comment and rank your video.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>If you convince people that your video is worth sharing, and then ask them to share it, then they likely will.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Third, upload your viral video to multiple video sharing sites for maximum exposure.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>You see, your video make go viral on a site like Mega Video before it goes viral on YouTube, so you’ll want to upload and promote your video on as many sites as possible for maximum effectiveness.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">I would like to point out that there is a common theme amongst all three of these viral marketing techniques, and that is the theme of creating great content and then giving it to people for free.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>When viral marketing has worked the best, it has always been because of people providing very informative or entertaining information for free.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>The more value you can provide to people for free, the more word of mouth marketing you will receive.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Then you will be rewarded with tons of free website traffic while others may struggle to break even with a similar business.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;"></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Verdana&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">Daniel Pereira</span></span></p>
