Covering Ground...
Emails:
Today I set up my email accounts and my zenbe email account. Now all my email configuration and correspondence is in the one place. I strongly recommend zenbe.com. As well as redirecting your mail, you can keep calenders and to do lists, etc.
Decisions:
I also decided on three social networking sites I will market on. I wrote about them in a previous post, (read it here) I have left the fourth social networking site to you, you decide by voting in the poll on the sidebar! The reason I have decided to do this is because it's just to difficult to decide. There are so many sites! So I narrowed the options down to xanga, habbo, netlog and livejournal. Please Vote!
Research Continues:
I came across a few articles about affiliate marketing on myspace but I have decided it's a stupid idea. Direct affiliate marketing is against the rules of myspace and can have you permanently deleted. My method includes sending myspace users to my niche site and then have affiliate links there. Direct affiliate marketing on myspace could be dangerous.
I read a few articles about facebook marketing, nothing really different in the concept, just carried out in a different location and a slightly smaller population. I think the competition on facebook is less competitive than myspace, it seems that anyone who was or is doing this on myspace is starting to do it on facebook.
Seed Planted:
I took a step back and looked at my plan and realized that setting up four accounts on each of myspace, bebo and facebook at this early stage could be too much. I am going to take this slowly and one step at a time. Its always good to stand back and take another look at your plan. So today I setup three profiles; one on myspace, one on bebo and another on facebook. I gathered some content like pictures, videos etc to add to them. I haven't added the content because I was pushed for time today!
Ning:
I first came across ning a couple of months ago and thought it was quite confusing. Today I decided to take a closer look at it and see what it can do. For those of you who don't know what ning is, it's a social networking site within a social networking site. The user can create a network dedicated to anything he/she likes and build a community about it. You can add forums, blogs, videos, photos. I am going to test this on my niche and see how it performs. Will keep you posted!
