DO YOU USE SOCIAL MEDIA YOUTUBE FACEBOOK MYSPACE TWITTER To MARKET

Do You Use Social Media In Your Marketing Efforts............

Having been online since before internet went commercial, I research it all, and although I was late to the party when it came to social media, I have seen many changes over the past year and what use to work no longer does.

Take all the most popular old school marketing tactics, fax on demand, email marketing, recent report said it all, 95% of all emails are now being blocked, even those you want to get through are now being blocked based on keyword blockers which list is longer than you know. Don't waste your money on email blasts or any such offers, total waste of money. Then we saw FFA which is long since proven to be spam email list builders. Then we saw social media start, and although you were not permitted to use for commercial use, look at how many are. Then Google came along with dominance of PayPerClick through Adwords which I thought was simply genious, and made alot of money with, but this too is dying. Why else would Google come out with a browser, now a cell phone of all things in crowded industry, never mind purchasing YouTube.

Take Twitter as the latest mega entry into the world of internet, first the posts were useless nothings, now they are almost all either useless nothings or blantant promotional tweets. Social media works, no doubt, and it works at building your contact list, but the king of content is YouTube, and obviously Google saw this as they see PPC revenues going down toilet over past few years. So what is next, simply follow Google, so we see YouTube becoming the next boom for Google, and you want to be in it for sure, so are you? Who has used YouTube to promote your business?

As with Google getting into cell phones, don't you think they did this for a reason beyond just being another cell phone seller in a crowded market? They are going to exploit GPS target point of sale advertising with MobileCellCash concept where you are walking by a McDonald's and a text for two for one sale pops up on your cell phone. The new PPC in my opinon. Now with Google into YouTube, you can bet they will be extracting ad revenues from it with PPC dying.

So here we have a method of capitalizing on YouTube if you are not already doing so, it is called OpportunityZOOM, or as I call it, YouTube ZOOM, a method of instantly getting professional videos promoting your specific business, a first. I see this as the next trend if not wave for internet marketers, so I wondered, how many are using YouTube already, and if so, how effective are your results to date? I have only used it for technical video posting for my team of engineers, but I have gotten inquiries and traffic to my main site from it, so it all started to make sense, YouTube is great marketing tool for future.

Success to all,
