World Internet Summit Speakers

Hi welcome back.

The resolve to the question what is blogging, will be determined to a large degree on how you want to define blogging.

If the interaction on social networking sites like MySpace is considered as true blogging, the internet users would be in the millions who qualify as social bloggers, and you can answer the question, “Yes, blogging is for everyone.” MySpace alone claims over seventy million users in the United States .

But if we were to define blogging from a commercial standpoint, then blogging is clearly not for everyone, and it might not even be for you. Less than eight percent of all those who access the Internet are commercial bloggers.

While blogging for certain has an entrepreneurial appeal, and those individuals who have modest offline businesses or online websites frequently use blogs as promotional tools that are inexpensive , but that is not to imply that the benefits of having a blog are for all entrepreneurs.

If communication between a specific group of people is required, there are cases in which a private Internet forum will work better than a public blog.

In other cases, a website, once built, will demand less attention than a blog, and may be a better traffic generator. Many blog owners sooner or later find themselves short on the time needed to keep their blogs promoted and updated.

In spite of all the probable negatives, there are many, many reasons why blogging might be for everyone or for you. One of the most obvious is that constructing a blog is simplicity itself, whereas building a website Requires a real understanding of HTML coding and can take weeks or even months.

To start your own blog all you need is to get a Blogger.com or WordPress account, choose your topic, and use the interface to begin your posting. You don’t need to use a template and you don’t need to find a host ,nor understand how to upload your pages of your website to it.

Is blogging for you or for everyone?

It certainly is not for everyone, as in the instance of blogging commercially, which is reserved for those who write a blog to promote their businesses and to make money blogging. But blogging could very well be for you, if you do have a business and want an inexpensive way to get it noticed.

It’s quick and easy and blogging is certainly inexpensive to get started.

The plain and simple truth is that writing isn’t a strength that everyone out there has. However, everyone has access to high quality writing to spruce up blogs, update sales collateral, increase readership, and raise their bottom line. Roger Elliott, experienced elancer, webmaster, and outsourcing expert, shares his 7 Steps to Outsourcing High Quality Article Writing.

Over the last few years, the very phrase ‘article writing’ seems to have become synonymous with low quality, valueless ‘cheaper by the dozen’ articles, written purely for the search engines.

And for a while, as long as you weren’t looking to impress your website visitors, it could be a fairly effective strategy too.

Google wants quality now, too

However, with Google’s algorithm shifts in May 2010, the game changed. Google started focusing on quality over relevance and in doing so, decimated swathes of long tail traffic from websites the world over.

So now we all need attention-grabbing content that our visitors will retweet, Facebook and Digg, but how to get it? Unless you’re lucky enough to be a great writer yourself, you might be worrying what you can do now.

All is not lost. There are plenty of writers onElance who are capable of turning a nifty phrase or two, and providing you’re prepared to pay a little more, will do a sterling job for you. (I know there are other places thanElance to hire writers, but I find all I need here).

Here’s how…

The 7 steps to hiring writers on Elance

1) To begin with, you’ll need articles that demonstrate the sort of style and content you’re after. These can be yours, or another website’s. (Note: This is for your writer to be inspired by, not copy!)

2) Advertise for a ghost writer. This lets your prospective writer know you want them to imitate someone else’s style and will help you narrow the field quickly to those who can do it. Attach a couple of sample articles and ask them to provide an example of their own writing in a similar style.

3) If you can, hire 3 writers. You do this for the same reason that you get 3 quotes for a plumber. Without a comparison, you’ll accept much lower standards (and possibly higher prices). And if you’re lucky, you’ll end up with 3 great writers. Spend some good time on this phase – ‘hire in haste, repent at leisure’. One thing I always do is chat with writers I like the look of in the Workroom. If they can’t communicate well, they aren’t going to write well.

4) Once you have chosen your winner(s), feed back and ask for a specific improvement to the article. This lets you check how they respond to feedback and lets them know you’re serious about quality. Plus, forcing yourself to work out what would improve an article helps you improve your game. Compliment your writer on what you like about their article – they’ll do more of it.

5) Get them on a schedule – for example, one article per week. This gives you an external deadline to stick to that will keep your content creation process ticking along.

6) Be prepared to pay. If you’re having SEO-focused articles written (and why wouldn’t you?), do a bit of math to check how long your monetization model will take to pay back what you’ve paid. Work out how much traffic the article would need to attract to achieve this and then decide how much you’re prepared to pay.

7) Do it again. If you can create content that will pay for itself, why not get 10 writers all creating one article per week? Unless of course you just don’t want to grow that fast

Although it can feel like a big step, outsourcing your content creation to skilled writers is one of the most important things you can do to help your web business grow. Put the time in now and it will free you up to focus on other areas of your online business.

Although embodied in the concept of resell rights marketing there are three “basic rights”. This post will concentrate on what is considered the most moneymaking and rewarding of the three, Private Label Rights.

Private Label Rights are represented in a certificate or authorization that is attached with an “information item.” The basics of Private Label Rights is to permit people to transform, reorganize, change, or improve the elements of the said merchandise to go well with the buyer’s personal desires and yearnings.

For example, if you have a Private Label Rights, you can easily segregate the contents of an E-Book, and persuade somebody to buy the contents as sequence of pieces of writing.

One of the best things about Private Label Rights is that you can actually do the same thing inversely. For instance, if you were able to buy a set of information products like a collection of articles embodied with Private Label Rights, you can easily bring them together without the risk of some law-related predicaments. Hence, you can collect different articles from different owners. With a common thought, you can come up with a creative masterpiece.

In addition, with Private Label Rights, you can simply append some information on the said product to make it more meaningful and creative, thus, creating an impression of having a product of your own.

Best of all, you can even put your name as the author of the said work. This is the most gainful aspect of having Private Label Rights. In this way, you do not have to acknowledge the primary author of the work.

So for those who are not yet aware of the rewards of using Private Label Rights, here is a list of some of the advantages:

1. It is just the thing for marking your name and your business’ name.

With Private Label Rights, you can easily acquire informative products that you can use as your own. Hence, this creates an impression that you are making your own product and that you are a professional and a skilled person on the given field.

In turn, you get the trust that you need in order to compel them to buy your product.

2. It triggers creativity.

One of the best things about Private Label Rights is that you can be creative in a thousand and one ways. This is because you can assemble the different elements and come up with a new and near-original work without having any difficulty of creating such product.

3. Develop a product!

With Private Label Rights, you can simply modify or improve a product if ever it does not fit your taste or needs. In this way, you can both cut back wasteful time by looking for products that are totally worthless or save more money by avoiding to create a whole new product.

However, even if some people contend that it is totally unethical for a person to sell the Private Label Rights for his creations, one cannot simply surmise the fact that engaging into this kind of activity is also beneficial to the seller especially if the product is already nearing the closing stages of its “market life.”

This goes to show that people must learn how to give way to any possible changes to any product that might have already lost its income-generating potential. By allowing other people to modify or enhance the features of certain products, the advancement of such products will continue to take place. Hence, the cycle will go on.

Indeed, the basics of Private Label Rights are not just necessary for most of the Internet marketers who wish to earn more income aside from their own products but also for the whole market as well. This is because the whole system of a give and take relationship dwells in the business and that is exactly where income generates its power.

Internet Marketers Everywhere,

Have you ever wondered how top marketers seemingly are one step ahead of the competition and always seem to know what the latest marketing techniques, strategies and methods are?

Quite simply…on a regular basis they’re actually told.

Almost every top marketer is part of SECRET GROUPS or MASTERMINDS. This may not be a new revelation to you, but what you don’t know is that behind closed doors and far away from the general public, these groups are kept SECRET. IT’S TRUE!

How does Armand Morin know?

He has trained and continues to train many of the top marketers in the world. You may or may not be aware of this but, Armand Morin will guarantee that most marketers online are currently using techniques which he has developed. Armand either taught them personally or they have learned it from one of the many marketers that he has taught directly.

* Armand Morin was one of the first Internet Marketers to use video testimonials on a sales letter.

* He helped spawn an audio revolution by using audio on web pages.

* Armand runs the largest Internet Marketing Seminar in the United States.

* He has created some of the most popular marketing software on the Internet today.

* Armand has been one of the most outspoken people about the use of opt-pages online.

* His outsourcing techniques have made people millions of dollars.

* He runs not one but 4 Multi-Million Dollar Companies

* Armand Morin is one of, if the not the most in-demand speakers on Internet Marketing in the world today speaking to over 200,000 people live each year around the world.

Here’s What You Don’t Know About Him…

Armand also runs one of the oldest and most successful SECRET MASTERMINDS called AM2.0. It’s only been talked about and discussed at very select live in-person events and private meetings. So don’t feel ashamed if you have never heard of it.

In fact .. Their membership is always full and successful marketers from all over the world are part of it, and there has NEVER been an online promotion about it. Armand can’t go to a seminar where someone doesn’t want to know more about it and how they can join.

Why?

RESULTS that’s why!

The results inside of the AM2.0 program for several reasons are absolutely incredible. Armand teaches the real stuff, no bull, you get results through real world internet marketing strategies. Follow what he does, and you’ll make more money. Easy!

You see, whenever you’re talking about groups, masterminds or training, RESULTS are the only real factor you need to consider. Nothing else matters.It doesn’t work, if something doesn’t get results. You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to figure it out.

Armand Morin would ask you this question, … Are You Getting The Results You Want From Your Business?

More then likely you’re NOT getting the results you need or want, and it’s not your fault. You’ve learned the wrong methods, from the wrong people and for the wrong reasons. There I’ve said it, and I’m glad I said it.

It makes Armand sick seeing the strategies being taught online these days. Since 1996 Armand has been online and he really has seen it all. Much of what is being taught today is tactical based and is certainly not long term. Manipulation is what many of these techniques are built on. You can be assured that a tactic won’t last very long, when part of the process is to try to manipulate people.

It’s doomed to fail right from the very beginning.

You may have been convinced that building a business online is hard. NOT TRUE! It’s not. It does take some learning, It is anything but hard, it does take some willingness and action on your part.

Armand Morin’s methods and systems work 100%! Armand has had students, who in less than 3 months who have created a $100,000+ business and the best part they STARTED FROM SCRATCH.
