We’ve all been to YouTube a few times and have accepted video content as part of the internet these days. News sites publish their TV content on the web, and even shows or whole movies can be watched online in some places. Live webcam chats have also been offered by a few major community sites.

But with videos and webcam feeds becoming a normality for the user, smaller sites and business were left out unless they were syndicating YouTube content, an option not leaving a very professional impression to a websites visitor.

When Website design first started no real attention was paid to search engine optimization. Website designers knew html or an html design program such as Front Page or Dreamweaver. A good designer also had an eye for layout, colors, etc. Search Engine Optimization was little known and less understood. Since far fewer websites had been designed and put on the Internet you still had a chance to be found even if you paid little heed to search engine marketing.

This is no longer true. The number of websites available on the web and the amount of competition they provide is mind boggling. This is true for most subjects and areas of business.

If you want to use your article writing skills to make money by attracting masses of traffic to your website you must learn how to write articles effectively. Writing articles is a skill and effetive article writing takes time to learn.

There is a large number of reasons for people writing articles, and if you do it properly, you will generally achieve what you intended to by writing yours. Online, that will usually be to advertise a product or market a website. However, it is the ‘doing it well’ that is the problem for most people, and no matter how hard you try or how good a writer you believe yourself to be, internet article writing is more than simply putting a few words together in a sensible way.

If you know how to write articles properly, then you can make money by using article marketing as a very effective online advertising technique. Not only does Google love article content, whether published in article directories or on your own website, but visitors also like to read about the topics that interest them, particularly if you write well and to the point.

It is beyond the scope of this article to teach you how to write articles properly since I cannot condense the contents of a 100+ page book on the subject into a few hundred words, but here are some tips on how to write in a manner that is rewarded by the search engines and keeps readers interested in what you have to say.

Affiliate marketing is a great revenue source for the internet marketing entrepreneur. The thing is, a lot of other people are aware of that fact as well and will be competing against you for the same customers.

There are plenty of potential customers out there and basic affiliate marketing campaigns will probably net you some sales. But, if you want to truly make a great income, you need something that will set you apart from the other people selling the product. Having an effective bonus offer is a great way of doing this.

Hey look what I found. It’s called WriteToMyBlog.com. I have been trying to create professional looking posts within wordpress and goodness gracious, you probably already know how well that WAS NOT working out for me. Try not to laugh to hard. Even the best of us get caught by the Duh net.

A fellow blogger (whose site has been down for a while) wrote about using Windows Live to write and manage posts on blogs. Unfortunately, no matter how many times I downloaded the Windows Live Writer, it caused me nothing but grief.

There’s a saying… “You Can Run but You Can’t Hide” From Gary Simpson. Ok I know, I know. That last part about Gary Simpson I just threw in because he’s called me out to the public. He’s challenged me to tell you 25 things about myself that most people don’t know.  That will seriously be a challenge for me because I usually say what’s on my mind. If I haven’t said it already, it’s probably NOT really that important to me. But here’s my list…

So what do know? More than a week has past since I made my first video and I’m still up to my nose sorting out Internet Marketing material. I have collected more FREE stuff than you could imagine. I guess the question I have to ask NOW should be … Is any of this stuff really GOOD? OK, maybe there are a lot of questions I have about all the FREE stuff I’ve collected, but that’s an issue I will address at a later date, unless someone knows a quick way to answer. What’s GOOD? What’s BAD? And WHY?

If you like my video, send it to your friends.

Thanks for watching.

It really is quite amazing how many things I have  to do in a day. Actually, they’re not  things that I have to do. They are things I want to do. Take exercising as an example. Hehehe, yea, it’s the new year and we all need to make a choice. We know we should exercise. The doctors tell us to exercise. Our bodies even tell us to exercise. But do I have to? NO! I don’t have to. I am choosing to exercise.
