I thought I would so something different in this post and give you a different kind of flavor here on the blog, and most likely some laughs, too. I’m into music and videos, and I spend some time on YouTube every now and then. It wasn’t until I came across a post on Daily Blog Tips that included Daniel’s Top 6 Geek Parody Videos, which inspired me to do something similar.

Don’t worry, this is completely on-topic and related to entrepreneurship, as my title suggests.

I added a couple of Daniel’s favorites here as I also enjoyed them, and I did some digging on YouTube to uncover some other great videos as well.

I hope you enjoy them!

Social media is a great way to get the word out about what you do. It helps build your brand and bring awareness to your online business, products and services. I’m a member of various social networking sites, and I want to invite all of you to join me. There’s some you may not have ever heard of before.

The site that I spend the most time on is Facebook. I’m a huge fan of the site. There’s many networking aspects of the site that you can use to bring awareness to your business, so that’s a huge plus. I use my account for both personal and business. This allows you to see who I really am and helps me to be more transparent and open to everyone. Become my friend on Facebook and get a peek into my personal life and also get to know more about me.

Follow me on Twitter. I don’t spend a whole lot of time on Twitter, but I do find it useful to find resources from others that I follow. If you follow me, I’ll follow you back, assuming you’re not a spammer. Also, I never reply or even read my Direct Messages (DM’s), so if you want to get my attention on Twitter, @ reply me, and I’ll get back to you.

If you like making useful videos, then hit me up on YouTube. I don’t have much time to make a lot of videos, but I’ll slowly be getting more out eventually. I like watching videos that provide real and useful content that I can learn from. If you subscribe to my channel, I’ll subscribe back.

Here’s some other sites you can find me at:

Sokule – Just like Twitter, but you can make money.

DirectMatches – The largest business networking site. You can also make a good bit of money from this site.

LinkedIn

I’d love to have you network with me on these sites, so if you’re a member or want to become a member, just sign up and send a friend request to me.

If you run a blog I’m sure one of your many goals is to create content that brings in a large readership. Afterall, your content is what matters the most when it comes to getting to gaining readers and having them continue to come back for more. A problem you may face is coming up with ideas on what to write about that’s going to attract a readership.

I’ve put together 3 tips that you can put into action right now to create blog content that gets noticed.

So, without further delay, let’s get right into it…

Tip 1: Find content to write about with YouTube videos

Videos are the new medium on the internet, and there is a TON of information in the form of videos, not just on YouTube, but on every other video site. Videos are great for spreading content in a more personal way. However, there’s no actual content, or text, about what is being talked about.

This is where you can benefit. Find a video that relates to your blog content, and create an article based on what the video is about. It’s just like transcribing an audio file into print form, but with a video instead.

This will be completely unique content, and you can do it for any niche or subject. There’s really no limit as there are a massive amount of videos on literally any subject you can think of.

Tip 2: Use Twitter and other Social Networks to find hot subjects to write about

This strategy will take a little more work, but it can be very effective. With this technique you’ll be blogging about current, hot topics that everyone is buzzing about. This should no doubt get your blog some exposure.

If you’re on Twitter I’m sure you’ve seen a particular subject that everyone is talking about. This could be true for any number of social sites. Start blogging about that subject, if it’s suitable for your blog, of course.

On Twitter, an easy way to find the most talked about subject is to go to the home page, and on the right-hand side, you’ll see Trending Topics. These are the topics that are most talked about, and this will save you a lot time to find them.

Tip 3: Read other blogs to get ideas for your own blog

Most bloggers are subscribed to RRS feeds of other blogs that they find interesting and are related to their own blogs. Sometimes a blogger you follow might write about something that really perks your interest.

One particular blog I follow is Peter Lee’s Work From Home Blog.

When this happens, what you can do is expand on what they talked about or even create a spin on the subject. You can even get a little controversial if you have a different point of view. This is another way to get exposure and a lot of comments.

When going this route, just be sure you don’t copy the post, as this is stealing. It’s okay if you want to quote a portion so that people reading your post can understand what you’re talking about. A link back to the other post wouldn’t hurt either.

I’m all for getting more traffic to my blog. Traffic is a good thing, especially when you’re trying to sell products online as an affiliate. You won’t make sales if you don’t bring in any traffic.

I’ve been a subscriber of Jeff Johnson’s for quite some time now, and he provides some top notch tactics on getting more traffic and sales. And believe me, I don’t use the phrase “top notch” lightly at all.

Jeff knows his stuff and tests everything he does. It also helps to have a team working for you, which of course, Jeff does. He had his team put together new software that could get more traffic to his blogs by optimizing them for search engines and utilizing various plugins.

Jeff provides a lot of awesome content on his Underground Training Lab blog, and for free. He’s really a down to earth guy that enjoys sharing what he’s learned with others. I’ve learned a lot just from his videos. If you’ve never seen any of Jeff’s videos before, you can check them out on YouTube.

Jeff decided to give away his SEO blog software for free. I’ve already downloaded my copy and plan to install it here on this blog shortly. I wanted to make all of my readers aware of this software and how it can really benefit your blog by bringing in more traffic, and hopefully more sales.

You can grab your copy of Jeff’s Free Traffic-Getting SEO blog software here. All you have to do is simply enter your email address… no name required. You’ll also get full instructions on installing the simple plugin and setting everything up.

If you don’t yet have a WordPress blog setup and want to take advantage of this software, simply sign up for a hosting account through HostGator, and I’ll help you set up your new blog and software. HostGator is my recommended web hosting company as they provide the best support, and their prices are very hard to beat.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on how this software is bringing in more traffic for you. Did you find it easy to install and setup? How much more traffic are you getting from it?

Once I get it up and running on here, I’ll be back with an update.

Here are some ideas to make money from your website or blog.

Adsense – Google Adsense is the #1 ad program out there to make a nice little profit on the side. You place these ads on your blogs, Xomba, Your website, anywhere you want where it is allowed, even on Youtube! For every person that clicks an ad that interests them, you get a profit. There are two sides to Google Adsense, Publishers and Advertisers. Publishers put the ads on there content (blog, website, Xomba, Youtube) by signing up for an account at google for free. Publishers pay Google depending on how much they want and Google puts the ads on the publisher’s site when related to keywords on that page.

Adbrite – Competitor of Adsense. If you do not like Adsense try this program. I have heard it has good benefits and a lot less rules. I do not use Adbrite so I would not know.

Chitika – Chitika is becoming more popular every day! It is a search Ad as i call it and only shows up when someone is coming to your page via search engines (Google, Yahoo, MSN, Ect). You can post Chitika on pages with Adsense! This is a very good benefit! You can make a lot more money using both these ads. If you are interested in Chitika here is a link: http://chitika.com/publishers.php?refid=Paintballer32

Sell your Website Space!- If your website/blog is becoming popular you can sell the space that you are not using to advertisers that want their name on your site. I would depending on how big you are start off at 1$ per space block and increase it as people buy. I mean, you’re not using it anyways right?

Ehow – Ehow, among other websites will pay you to write useful information that users will like. Depending on how many articles you write and how good they are and if they bring traffic or not will determine how much you will be paid.

Sell things on your website! This is a good way to make profit from your sales. Make a PayPal account and buy items that you can sell for more and you keep the income. Or, sell products as an affiliate through Clickbank or Commission Junction.

There are a lot of programs out there that you can earn quite a bit of extra cash! Not all sites or programs are scams.

These are some things I would start using to get income! If used right you could be making a very decent income depending on how much and what kind of traffic you’re getting.
