Today I watched a webinar on content syndication. What does content syndication mean you may well ask? Read on to find out more.

Basically content syndication is where you get the piece of content you have created, be it an article or a video spread all over the internet so it is seen by as many eyes as possible. The more visitors to your content the better chances of you turning people into leads and leads into sales:)

Content Syndication

What content syndication do most people usually do? They probably post a link on twitter and facebook and leave it at that. That will obviously get your article seen but what if you could multiply the amount of people seeing your content by 10 or even more. Would you be interested?

Have you heard of a site called Onlywire? This site enables you to post your content to over 50 social media sites at a click of a button. There are other sites similar to this like pixelpipe etc..
but today I am focusing on Onlywire for reasons that will become obvious later.

There is a bit of work needed here, you will need to set up an account at all these social media sites so you can add the details to your Onlywire account. You only have to do this once and that’s it. If this seems like too much work for you or you don’t have the time you can always outsource it. You will find people willing to do this for you on fiverr.com and it will cost you, yes $5.

You can now get your new content sent out to 50+ sites at the click of a button. That’s great but what if I told you that you can also get other people to do content syndication for you. That’s right they send a link to your content to all of their Onlywire accounts.

Why would they do that? Simple because you would do the same for them back. Lots of people doing this for each other is known as a tribe. You can now use the power of a tribe for your content syndication.

Tribe pro is the site I am talking about. This site enables you to have your Onlywire account plugged into it. Members can then auto syndicate each other so that each time you post a piece of content you are automatically syndicated to their networks. Say you had 50 people following you who had also auto syndicated you that is 50×50=2,500 times your link is sent to these various sites. How’s that for content syndication.

But it gets better, if you think it will take you too much time posting your new content to tribe pro every day. There is an auto submit section where you connect your blog to tribe pro so when you publish something on your blog it is automatically posted on tribe pro to be shared by everyone. Watch a video of how to do this below. This is content syndication on steroids.

Of course this part is not free but you are running a business. You can get the free version of tribe pro but you will have to do your own posting. Try out the free version and when you see how powerful it can be, upgrade. The same with Onlywire the free version only allows so many free posts( I think it is 300) but that will soon get used up if you are serious about your content syndication.

go and put your content syndication on steroids starting today.

When you first started an online business you are probably like most people( myself included), jumping straight in trying to learn how to make money online. I soon found out you can’t run a business without being organized and you would be crazy to think you could. So if you get organized by making a business plan you are ready and set up for success.

What Plans Do I Need?

You need a clear plan to know what your goals are and how you are going to achieve these goals.

Here is what plans you need

A yearly plan – create a plan of where you want your business to be in a years time.

90 day plans – you now have a goal so you can break it down into 4×90 day plans on how you are going to work towards achieving this goal.

Monthly plan – break it down even further into a monthly plan, saying what you want to achieve that month.

Weekly plan – now break it down into a weekly plan of action.

Finally a daily plan of tasks you need to do to take your business forward.

Write these plans out on a piece of paper, write down what you are going to do tomorrow, today. So next day you can get straight to work giving priority to what you see as the most difficult task first and then working your way through each task you have written down until you have finished your to do list.

Another thing you should do is write a daily sheet of things you have done. After 30 days of writing notes down you can look back and see how far you have come. You will probably be amazed at what you have achieved. You can see what worked for you and what didn’t and this can help you create a short e-book to give people a path to follow your success so far.

As you can see a business plan is vitally important for any business. If you get up each morning and just think what will I do today for my business, you are likely to be easily distracted and get nothing done. On the other hand if you have written your to do list the day before you can focus on going through your list and doing things that will push your business forward. No wasting time reading emails or chatting on facebook just worthwhile tasks that will help you in the long run.

So I want you to get out your pen and paper and write down your business plan today. Tomorrow you can get started on really building your business with an end target to aim for.

What is social bookmarking and what can it do for your business? This article is a follow up to my recent post about duplicate content. Please read that post first before reading this post about social bookmarking.

What is Social Bookmarking?

Social Bookmarking is a way of letting google know you have created something. It may be an article, blog post or a video you have created. By submitting the link to your creation on sites such as Digg, Stumbleupon, Delicious etc… you are leveraging the popularity of these sites.

We will take Digg.com as our example here. Let’s go and add the link to our content. First off if you haven’t already done so join up to Digg to become a member. Once you have done that click the submit link button at the top of the page. Add your link and that’s it your link will then be displayed on Digg for everyone to see and comment on.

You can then go to the other social bookmarking sites and do the same and your content will soon be seen all over the internet. But if this seems a bit time consuming to you, what If I told you about a way to post to all these sites at a click of a button. Wouldn’t that be better?

Save Time With Onlywire.

I am talking about a site called Onlywire have you heard of it? If you haven’t it is about time you checked it out to see what it can do for you. You can upload your link to over 30 social bookmarking sites all at once. It takes a bit of work when you join. This is because you will have to join all the sites you want to post to. The good thing though is you only have to do this once and that’s it.

Once you have joined all the other sites you add your details to your onlywire account. You then download an app called bookmark and share from the onlywire site. From then on when you want to share your content you just press a button and it will go to all these sites. How cool is that? Onlywire is free to join and you are allowed 300 submissions a month, but remember each time you post to these sites that counts as one submission. So if you are posting to 30 at a time that counts as 30 of your submissions.

There is also a paid version of Onlywire for people who are posting often and reach their 300 limit pretty quickly. It’s also for marketers who want to take their content syndication to the next level as you can integrate your Onlywire account with a site called Tribe Pro. Read this post for more details on tribe pro.

There are always negative things that happen to people some time in their lives, we all get our ups and downs. But it is how you react in these situations that determines if you are going to let these things bring you down and affect you for the rest of your life. Or are you going to say “I can get over this” and get on with your life. The answer really is up to you. I know it is hard to be positive in these moments of self doubt, I have been there and in the end realised the only way to go forward was to think positive and not let life bring me down.

So how do you keep yourself feeling positive? Good question, here are five ways to make sure that you are always looking at the positive side of things and not the negative.

5 Positive Thinking Tips

1. Surround yourself with positive people. I know this is difficult especially in your workplace. I used to work with a bunch of people who were so negative that they got me as bad as themselves. In the end I left as I could see they where always going to be the same and I didn’t want to be in that environment any longer. So try to steer clear of these people that are negative in everything they say and do. Hang out with the positive ones, usually the ones with a smile on there face and always laughing. It rubs off on you I tell you.
2. Another thing I would recommend is to upload all your favourite positive songs on to an MP3 player and keep it close by. If you ever start to get negative thoughts put on the music, sing along even have a little dance(as long as no one is watching:). This will soon lift your spirits and put you in a positive state of mind.
3. You can begin to become a positive thinker by focusing on the solutions to any problems you encounter rather than let them beat you and get you thinking I can’t do that. Remember you rule your emotions, don’t let them rule you.
4. Look after your health, eat the right food get plenty of exercise and you will look and feel great. The better you think of yourself the more positive your outlook on life will be.
5. Form the habit of being positive at all times. Here is a quote I read about habits that I thought was great. “Bad habits are like a comfy bed, easy to get into but hard to get out of.” The same is true about good habits, so get into the habit of being positive, starting today.

Here is an extra tip, SMILE it has been proven that smiling can lift your mood. If you encounter a problem smile and think of a solution to that problem. Soon you will find yourself being positive in every situation in life.

Dummies.com

The first place you should look is a site called dummies.com. You must have seen all those dummies books on a huge variety of subjects.

Magazines.com

Next have a look at magazines.com. This is one site few people will have heard of as a possible place to find a niche market. The principle is the same as dummies, would they take the time to publish these magazines if their wasn’t a market for it?

Amazon.com

Go to Amazon.com and go to the books section. Type in your niche again and you will see a list of the top selling books in that niche. If there are a lot of books that are selling well you have found a niche you can make money in.

Another little tip. Once you have decided on a niche you may want to write articles or blog posts on the subject. If you want a catchy title for you article or post where better to look than on the front of these magazines or books. They are put there to catch the readers attention after all.

Forums

Forums are another good place to find a niche market. Go to google.com and type in the niche you are looking at. If you see that there are lots of forums in your chosen niche you know you are onto a winner and can make money in that niche.

Today we will concentrate on business goals.

A lot of people when starting out in business just jump in and start marketing without setting any goals, having a plan or a daily blueprint to work from. Without these in place they may already be doomed to failure.

Before you start out in your business you should set yourself worthwhile goals, be specific about these goals. Write them down and then create a plan for achieving these goals. Next step would be to implement this plan. Come back to this plan often to review and adjust it as needed.

Apart from writing down what your goals are, write down why you want to achieve these goals and set a date when you hope to achieve these goals. If you do not set an end for your goal how will you know you have reached it? Once you have reached a goal, set a new goal and carry on with that. Make sure you read your goals at least twice a day, first thing in the morning when you wake up and before you go to bed. This will keep them in your mind and help you stay focused on what you are trying to achieve.

Make sure you review and analyse your progress every day. Adjust your goals if you have gone “off course” but always remember the quickest way to your target(your goal) is in a straight line. Do not get distracted and let anything stop you from reaching your goals.

Some helpful hints

1. Create a daily journal

2. Ask yourself if what you are doing is the most productive thing you could be doing.

3. Review your progress and celebrate when goals are reached.

4. Set new goals regularly

5. Don’t stop moving forward

6. Map out your success

7. Create a plan

8. Stay positive and expect success

You can see now why setting goals and objectives are important for you personally and especially in your business. Get started right now, take some time and write down all you want to achieve. Start with short term goals say 1- 3 months, then your yearly goals and maybe a long term goal something like where you would like your business to be in 5 years time.

Today I am going to talk about “low competition keywords“. Search engine optimization (Seo) is a subject a lot of people try to avoid as there can be quite a bit of work involved. But using low competition keywords you can soon be ranking on page one of google.

Why low competition keywords?

Well, keywords are used to get you high ranking within google search engine results. This is why they are so important in article marketing. Choosing your keywords wisely will get you higher rankings on google and therefore more visitors to your site. Which is the whole purpose of your marketing. The idea is you will use low competition keywords for getting your articles,websites, blogs and videos to appear high in the search engine results page.

What is keyword research? It is looking for words that are going to be the most profitable for you in your business. It is also a way to find out the amount of competition you have for each word or phrase you have chosen.

What is a keyword? It’s what people type into google search. They can be more than one word which is a bit confusing. Usually if it 1-3 words long it is referred as a short tail keyword and if it is 4 or more it is known as a long tailed keyword. You will have more chance of making page one on google search if you target long tailed keywords. The competition is not so fierce.

How do you find low competition keywords?

Step 1: You use a keyword tool to discover how many searches there are for a particular keyword. Step 2: You then discover how much competition there is for your keyword by typing your chosen keyword into google.

Here is the golden rule, you are looking for words that get high amount of searches but a low amount of competition. With short tail keywords you will usually find very high competition. So you should concentrate on long tail for lower competition.

Go to google search and type in keyword tool. At the top of the results will be google adwords tool, click on this and you will taken to the adwords tool. Enter a word or words that are connected to your niche.

A list of results will appear, make sure the match type broad is selected on the top right hand side of the results. These results will give you a list of similar keywords as well as the one you typed in. Some of these may be better to use than the keyword you entered. You look through this list looking for words with a decent amount of global searches a month.

Pick one and go back to google search and enter the one you have chosen but put it in quotation marks for example “how do I build a website” doing this will mean you only get the results for people who have typed in that exact keyword.

You are looking for results under 60,000 to have any real chance of getting a high ranking with google search using your chosen keyword. Once your blog has gained more authority you will be able to target keywords with a bit more competition. But start low and watch the results.

So, it is time for you to go and do your own research on low competition keywords. Remember the golden rule, high amount of searches and low competition. Searches volume around 800 or more a month and competition less than 60,000. Don’t get hung up on it being 60,000 if it’s a bit more still try it, but I would not advise over 70,000 competitors at first. I hope this article has been helpful and answered any questions you had.
