What powerful, recent changes have been brought to the world of marketing online?
With the (vicious, for some) Panda update unleashed by Google, the most noticeable change was the mass slapping of many prominent article sites from the top search results. Even EzineArticles, a well-known highly reputable article site, took a massive, if not the biggest, hit (it was the only article site I personally noticed that reached the 1st page of Google with any consistency up until recently.) This came out of the blue for many internet marketers such as myself, who used articles as a primary method of lead generation for business, and it loosened more than just a few people’s teeth in the process. There are these changes that we at times don’t see coming. And then, armed with the right information, there are times that you can clearly see what is just right around the corner.
What does the future of marketing online hold for us?
A few weeks ago I was in attendance at the No Excuses Summit 2, a master marketing event for home based business owners, and in one of the keynote talks they talked about the impact that social media has had for businesses of all types over the last couple of years, and how Google is starting to take more interest than ever before.
Google has realized that no matter how smart their engineers are, no matter how advanced their algorithms get, they will never be perfect in predicting the best choices out there for any and all particular keywords. Now, thanks to how interwoven social media is nowadays with the ubiquitous “Like” and “Retweet” buttons it is now far easier than before to gauge the relevance and quality of content by the sheer number of people who have shared it.
What can this mean for marketing online in the near future?
Already, and they seem to be doing this quietly as a test run, Google has just recently released a new program called “+1.” Essentially, this is Google’s version of the “Like” button. Essentially, this means that we have the power to push any site we like up further in the ranks of Google’s search results directly in our hands. This should be a very powerful sign as to how seriously Google is starting to take social media when it comes to ranking pages on their search engine.
If you are in the SEO game, up to this point backlinks, both quality and quantity, have been the name of the game for marketing online from an off-site point of view. As backlinks will still continue to carry some weight in the internet marketing world, we can definitely expect to see social media and social bookmarking votes (like Digg, Reddit & StumbleUpon) carry far more weight in the future.
How can we take advantage of these new internet marketing trends?
How can we ensure that we will have, or continue to have, a successful internet marketing business when all these changes eventually come to pass? More importantly, if we’re just starting out in our business how can we stand a chance against businesses and pages that are already established and have all those backlinks and social media votes to begin with?
By the greatest of good graces I found a powerful service that will not only help the new player in the game of marketing online get the social media votes they desperately need to get their business off to a fast start, but also help future-proof their business from this eventual total social media shift that Google is currently in the process of making. Simply put, the choice to use this service can and will literally make or break your business.
This service is called TribePro. The service is very simple, and at the same time extremely powerful. TribePro is essentially a community of people who actively mass-promote each other’s content throughout multiple social media outlets such as Facebook, Twitter, StumbleUpon and a huge amount of others through another service called OnlyWire. Essentially you find people whose material you wish to auto-syndicate, and they auto-syndicate your material in return. If you have done this at the beginning, each time you share your content with your TribePro community your content automatically gets shared throughout the social media & social bookmarking services that your auto-syndicators set up to automatically syndicate your content. Even within just a few hours of you signing on to use this service, as soon as you submit your content you can immediately have your content shared about 200-300 times literally within seconds. That means 200-300 high quality backlinks and social media votes that, even now, carry a lot of weight with the search engines.
