Featured Article - Marketing Revolution With Blogs
And RSS
By Brandon Hong
Do you know that there is a marketing revolution happening
online this very moment?
Before that, let's go back in time and take a look at the
major revolution or 'waves' that has occured when the Internet
became a business or marketplace.
First there was the Search Engine revolution, with Alta Vista,
Yahoo and now Google coming onto the scene and with webmasters
busy tweaking their pages for high ranking on these search
engines which means more traffic.
Then there was the email marketing revolution, when people
discovered the use of email as a means for follow up selling
and is still being widely used today.
Finally, there was the affiliate marketing wave, popularised
perhaps by Amazon, and with most businesses following using
this model to distribute and sell their products.
And today, we have blogs and rss feeds being used as a new
form of marketing for businesses. Blogs appeared few years
back, and in a way was similar to a forum, except that with
blogs, you call the shots and can write and talk about anything
under the Sun.
When it first appeared, blogs were thought of nothing more
than just a tool for people to express their rants, feelings,
emotions and so forth. However, soon savvy marketers recognized
the use of blogs as another channel of marketing - be it branding,
selling, promotion etc.
Today, blogs have taken on a whole new meaning and become
sophisticated in look and content to the extent that it has
become a powerful way to market products and services. There
are so many ways you can earn money with blogs, which is discussed
in my multimedia e-book.
RSS Feeds are basically a way of distributing/circulating/syndicating
your contents, which can come from your blogs, your newsletters,
and so forth. In my multimedia e-book, "Marketing Rampage
with Blogs and RSS" I show you in video how easy it is
to create a feed in under 10 minutes!
Think of a giant sea octopus. Imagine its long tentacles
with suction pods all over reaching out to grab food. RSS
Feeds is like a giant octopus, with UNLIMITED tentacles and
UNLIMITED REACH for you to "grab" your prospects.
Does that send shiver down your spine?
