You might have noticed a change in Twitter behavior. Especially if you are using an automated service updating your tweets. Well, Twitter decided to chane its API authentication method. This may not mean much to you, but for service providers like the Power Blog, it means that the entire Twitter integration has to be rewritten.
I will do my best to get this working again. It also means that you need to reconfirm your Twitter settings in the Power Blog. I will send an email with instructions as soon as the new code is live.
If you're struggling trying to get more clients, customers, subscribers, traffic and sales, then you're probably not implementing the right marketing strategies.
With the latest Web 2.0 technology hitting the Internet scene, millions of people are now reaching a broader market by diversifying their strategies using social media.
Social media allows people around the world to interact with one another quickly, easily and more effectively.
Traditional methods of finding more customers aren't as effective as they use to be.
So in comes Social Media.
Social Media = More Leads, Sales and Traffic
Understanding social media can take a lot of time to learn. But luckily, you don't have to go through the pain and hassle of finding out the best ways to use it.
I've created a package targeting the most popular social media platforms out there.
Introducing...
'350 Social Media Tactics'
In this unique package, you'll receive a set 7 reports in 7 different topics, all targeted to helping YOU take advantage of high traffic social media sites...
This is a social network where you can promote your business and get paid at the same time!
A must-have in every business person's arsenal of tools. If you are (or hoping to be) in business of any sort, My Biz Friends is a great place to set up shop.
Very similar to Facebook, minus the annoying kiddy stuff, plus real business building apps and commissions.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ActionHomeBusiness.com's Home Business Report - Monday, March 08, 2010 Publisher: Dan L Orr ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ RIGHT NOW There's A Customer At Your Website. So, Who's Talking To Him And Making The Sale?
by Dr. Jeffrey Lant ----------------------------- To get more articles and talk to our LIVE staff in the member area sign up here:http://www.ActionHomeBusiness.com -----------------------------
A few minutes ago a customer dropped by your website. He's been looking for something, thinks you might have it, but has questions which need answers before he purchases.
Have you got interactivity on your site, the means, that is, of allowing your customers to talk LIVE to you so their questions and concerns can be immediately dealt with and the sale made?
Or are you still in the Internet Dark Ages trying to make do with nothing more than a form which enables that customer to email in questions, which you'll get around to when you feel like it? If this sounds like your website situation, listen up because your lack of interactivity is costing you money EVERY SINGLE DAY.
Do You Know What Your Customers Want? Attention When They Want It!
Have you thought lately about how customer friendly your website is? Have you walked through what a customer must do to do business with you? If you expect to make money online, you need to understand both what your customer wants from you and whether you can deliver it.
When customers arrive at your site they want to know help is available when they need it. Thus, you need the means to greet your customers and let them know you're available to assist them -- when THEY are ready to be helped!
Can you do this at your website now? Can you greet your customers? Can you let them know you're there to help? Or do you have nothing more than the old-time conventional website which really is just an electronic circular or bulletin board?
The Customer's Ready For Help. Are You Ready To Provide It?
Okay, the customer has browsed and now has questions. How are you going to answer these questions, given the fact that the speed and thoroughness with which you answer them will probably either make or break the sale?
The usual, out-moded, conventional website offers nothing more than the chance to click on 'contact us' with only the possibility of some later response. But the customer is interested NOW! The customer wants to get his questions answered NOW! The customer is ready to buy NOW! Sadly, the only thing you're offering is 'we'll get back to you as soon as we can.'
Blech!
That's not marketing. It's anti-marketing; the perfect way to kill the sale and turn off that customer with a pulse who's ready to proceed NOW!
People Buy When People Talk To Them!
The crazy notion exists that somehow making a sale online is different from making a sale offline. Rubbish. When you go into a store, you want a salesperson to come up, offer his assistance, step back until you need it, then provide it graciously and knowledgeably. The same is true online. It's ridiculous to think that the 'here's the information, take it or leave it' approach is anything other than daft.
Your customers, like all customers, want to speak to you about their questions, qualms, and concerns when they're ready -- not when you get around to responding to emails. Knowing this, just how long will it take you to give your customers what they want -- so you get the sales you need?
Conclusion
As the Internet matures, it's clear who's profiting, who's not and why. This is irrefutable: if you want the sale, talk to your customer -- which means making sure you have website interactivity.
It is absolutely necessary for your Internet success.

Hello my friends, it's been a while since I wrote in my own blog. Not that I didn't look out for you and made sure that everything works well, I just was busy with my other businesses.
I started to clean up the affiliate program section at the end of last year, but never finished the roll out. Now finally it is done. This is the largest change to the Power Blog since its start. Over time the affiliate program section got a lot of abuse and the Power Blog did not really prevent crazy setups. This has changed.
When you add a new affiliate program you can only add text and a few select html tags like bold, italic and underline. No more excessive linking from within the description. If you want to add a graph, there's an image upload the limits the size of the graph. This image will be displayed next to your description.
Here are the highlights:
Text only in the description
Upload one image with the max size 250x250 pixels.
Existing descriptions are being stripped of most html tags.
In the affiliate id management, where you add your affiliate IDs to existing affiliate programs, I added a function called "Not Interested". This will hide this affiliate program from your view. This is great to navigate the now over 1000 affiliate programs. With this function you can quickly narrow the affiliate programs to the ones you're interested in. There's also a new option in the search that allows you to view all the programs you deemed not interesting.
If you haven'tseen PageSwirl lately, you're missing an even greater opportunity than before.
They've just released a brand new service that sends 3,000 quality page views to your websites every month... for only pennies a day!
Announcing....
The Exclusive Members-Only PageSwirl Ad Co-op!

That's what a siterotator can do for you. But what makes PageSwirl the rotator professional marketers use? One word... flexibility!

PageSwirl not onlylet's you change the affiliate website you want shown, it allows you to add as many new programs as you like. Got 500 affiliate programs you want shown? Enter ALL of them into PageSwirl. Each and every site will be shown on a rotation basis.
** YOU Decide WhatProgram Gets Higher Priority!
What if you wanta few of your sites shown more than others? That's simple too! Just set the priority level to how often you want each of them shown. Setting them to High will let them be shown twice as much as normal. Setting them to Highest will let them be shown 4 times as much.
** The FlexibilityIs Amazing!
Or maybe you have40 affiliate programs you're rotating but then a new program comes along that you want to advertise exclusively for a time. Don't delete the others, just click the disable switch! You can rotate 1 of 40, or all of them. The choice is yours!
That's flexibility!No wonder PageSwirl is the rotator the Pro's choose.
But don't takemy word for it. Come see for yourself!
