Internet Web Conferencing Software – Advantages of Having Video in Web Based Conferencing Services

Is internet web conferencing something as great as marketers say it is? Here you will have the chance to read about a number of disadvantages and advantages of internet web conferencing.

The main advantage is that anyone can use internet web conferencing software to communicate with others. While you only have audio with a phone conference, a conference through the internet allows you to feel like you’re in the same room with the people you’re talking to.

Using modern internet technology, people can talk to each other using live video software. In our current age, people can talk and see each other even if they’re thousands of miles apart.

You can interpret their facial expressions and body language just like they would in a normal face to face conversation. You can put a face on the person you’re talking to even if they’re far away from you.

A great problem when you do an audio conference is that you’re not able to put a face to the voice you’re hearing. Not unless you already know him in person. That’s why with audio conferences you need to tell people who you are, but they might have a problem knowing who is talking if they can’t see you.

You no longer have this problem if you’re using internet web conferencing. You don’t need to spend time letting others know who is talking, you can just talk and they will know who speaks to them.

Another form of doing internet conferencing is the use of stored video. What I mean by that is that people need to show other people a video in some cases, to make them understand their point better. Internet meetings allow for such videos to be presented.

You can show others any video you want them to watch during your presentation. Some web conferencing services also provide the option to record the entire conference so you can simply ask it to other colleagues or clients who cannot attend the video conference.

But, the video part isn’t the only thing great about internet conferences. If you’re in an audio conference, you need a quiet room to be sure that everyone understands what is being said.

Twitter – why having a huge following is great for business and how to attract more followers

admin    Twitter Marketing     Attract, Business, Followers, Following, Great, Having, Huge, More, Twitter

I’m the first to admit I was a bit slow on the uptake for Twitter.  My husband had been nagging me for months to get on to Twitter and use it as a way to grow my businesses.  To be honest, I had my doubts.  How could a 160 character update attract anyone to follow me, let alone have any positive impact on my business?  And what on earth was I going to tweet about? Then I stumbled across a ‘how-to’ program which helped me see the light.  I paid around $US25 for the program and was amazed by what I learnt.   I’m so impressed that I’m sharing this new-found knowledge with Home Biz Chicks subscribers. Why Twitter? Twitter is the fastest growing social networking medium in the world.  There are millions of users online every day conversing about things they’re interested in – whether that is personal stuff, hobbies, or business.   The beauty of Twitter is that is groups together people who are interested in the same thing, so you can easily find consumers who might be interested in your products. The stats are interesting – I know of a user who has 16,000 followers.  On average, around 400 people click on the links in his tweets each and every time.  If that link goes to a web site with a product to sell, he’s got 400 new prospects every time he tweets. How to make the most of Twitter: The key here is to automate your Twitter account as much as possible.  You also need to tweet about something that is interesting (but the good news is you can automate that too!). Here are the steps I’ve followed: 1. Upload an engaging photo of yourself looking directly into the camera.

2.    Upload an interesting bio – something funny, personal, cheeky, engaging – anything that can capture attention.  Mine says “Home Biz Chicks evangelist, white chocoholic, PR Queen, Greece nut, mother to 1 and a half, step mother to 2, doting wife, BandB fan, fearlessly determined” .  I am amazed by how many people have commented on my bio since I changed it from the standard professional profile.

3.    Personalise your page by going to mytweetspace.com. You can add images, a banner, text, anything that shows you’ve taken the time create something unique.

4.    Update the design of your home page by using the Settings Tab and Design.  

5.    Send an automatic response to everyone who follows you. This is especially powerful if you want to send a link to drive people to opt in to your list. The product recommends using an affiliate response which I haven’t done – mine is offering the report “How to Generate Free Publicity For Your Home Based Business”. Go to tweetlater.com and follow the links to auto welcome and auto follow.

6.    Find people to follow who are interested in the things you offer. Did you know it’s twitter etiquette to follow people who follow you?  The key to generating more followers is to follow more people yourself, who are then likely to follow you back.  Find people who are interested in what you have to offer by visiting twollo.com and then adding key words to your searches.  You can also find people using Twitter’s yellow pages directory which is twellow.com.

7.    Create content for your tweets. So, how do you keep people engaged?  The trick is to post useful information about your topic, regardless of whether it comes from your web site or someone else’s.  If you’re constantly tweeting about your subject, people will notice and begin to view you as an expert in the field, who knows where to find some great information.  Do this by creating google alerts using key words for your industry.  Set up a gmail account for the alerts to be delivered to, and then set them up as an RSS feed.  Set up an account with twitterfeed.com, add the HTML code from your alerts into your account and shorten the link using tinyurl (there are drop down boxes for each step). These alerts will then automatically feed into your twitter update every few hours, giving you timely and interesting content that you don’t need to spend hours researching.  If you have products to sell, tweet about those too. Follow these guidelines and you too will see your followers skyrocket.  If you want more detailed information, including the step by step ‘how to’ videos, plus a check-list, you can purchase the product (which I recommend and have used) “Twitter Traffic Machine – the Automated Growth and Money Making System” . © 2009 Home Biz Chicks

Social Networking and Social Bookmarking

Driving traffic to your website by using social bookmarking and social networking sites is an increasing and an effective website marketing strategy. Using Twitter, Facebook and MySpace is very important in social networking. Twitter, which is actually a mini-blog site, works differently to the other social sites. It is an extremely popular place to put your message out. You can get large numbers of people following you and thereby increase your site-visitor traffic. More back-links help your page-rank at search engines like Google and also gets you in front of internet searchers.

As well as these social sites–social bookmarking sites like Delicious, Stumbleupon, Technorati, Digg, and Propeller are the top social bookmarking sites amongst hundreds of social sites. You can bookmark your sites as well as other people’s websites, but at a bookmarking site you can find others who are bookmarking sites in the same category. Basically if you recommend other sites those site-owner will also recommend your site and therefore–bring more traffic to your website business.

These are some website marketing strategy tips to follow to boost your visitor traffic. Generally most people find a problem knowing where to get started with some of these internet marketing tools. A new video training site is now available to teach people in network marketing online, however their step-by-step videos are suitable for everyone with an online business.

Evaluate Your Website Marketing Strategy

Having your website marketing strategy in place, then it is important to evaluate it often–to be sure it is working for you and achieving the success of your website business. Are you meeting short term goals with your current specific strategy? How much nearer are you at achieving your purpose or long term marketing goals? These are vital things to consider when evaluating your marketing strategy. If you find that some areas are off-key and parts of your strategy are failing you, be willing to make changes, even diversify and test new areas to your strategy to find what works best. Only then will you come to the success you are seeking for with your website business.
