Today is the day folks! Stompernet launches SMARTS – Social Marketing Traffic Strategies and I am truly excited about this launch. I missed out on the original launch of Stompernet, and have been studying these folks ever since then. In my humble opinion the guys behind Stompernet, Andy Jenkins and Brad Fallon are pioneers in the SEO world. I have been getting their newsletters and following their blogs for about 15 months now and am amazed at the depth of their research and knowledge.

SMARTS is going to be a great coaching program that also includes a great piece of software that will help you tackle Social Marketing and make it easy for you to get into. I would recommend if you are at all interested in their new coaching program SMARTS, that you get in as soon as possible as their will be limit as to the number of people they can except and still provide a great coaching experience. This is a timed coaching program, so once they are sold out, that’s it.

To check out SMARTS click on the ribbon at the top of this blog or click on the graphic to the right of this post.

****Warning The Video at the bottom of this post shows how the [Tag-Tec]Stompernet[/Tag-Tec] boys managed to claim the first 8 PAGES on Google (yes, pages, not listings) through social media marketing. ****

I Just got finished watching the latest video from the boys over at Stompernet in regards to their Going Natural 2.0 Video series. The new video titled ” SMARTS Social Media” is the longest of the series, but definitely one of the most interesting. Between keeping up with what’s going on with Going
Natural 2.0 and Entrecard I don’t seem to have enough time to do much else.

Do you know the difference between Social Media and Social Marketing? Neither did I until I watched the new video series. The new Going Natural 2.0 video is nothing but great content. It’s got plenty of information that you can do starting right now that will make a huge difference in your business (that is if more traffic and better search engine rankings means more business for you).

Lots of folks have dabbled with social media – you probably even have a MySpace page or a Facebook page. But it’s one thing to put up a simple page on one of those sites, and it’s a whole different ball of wax to build your business using these THOUSANDS of social media sites in a systematic and strategic way. And once you engage the full power of those strategies, the speed and power of this stuff is incredible. In fact it’s downright intoxicating. You can generate nearly instant search engine rankings (in other words, forget about that Google Sandbox,) or drive big floods of traffic directly to your site. Or drive conversion rates through the roof by preselling your traffic. In the video they give you four killer Social Marketing strategies, which you can learn by watching the video. Believe me it is time well spent.

I thought this would be a good time to recap all of the videos, free information and free software from the Going Natural 2.0 series.

All you have to do, is choose the video you want to watch from the playlist on the player and watch the video. Enjoy and please if you do enjoy please Digg, Stumble and Sphinn this post. As always I like to know what my readers are thinking, so please do leave a comment.

Do other [Tag-Tec]Bloggers[/Tag-Tec] get more traffic than you do? Maybe you feel you should get more attention than they do. Are you doing the work that needs to be done to create more traffic to your Blog? Things like submitting your posts to social websites like Digg, Technorati, Reddit, Blue Dot and the like. How about Writing articles relating to your content and posting them on various
article directories, or commenting on Blogs that are related to your content or niche. How would you like to make some money from someone else’s Blog Post’s? Sounds to good to be true, but it’s not. Enter [Tag-Tec]Swypefile[/Tag-Tec]..What is Swypefile ? We will get to that.
Have you ever been the last one to the party? I have and it’s no fun, I did’nt see the writing on the wall when the internet was first introduced, I was a late comer in the E-Commerce arena and it took me 10 Years to create my first website. So excuse me if I sound a little too enthusiastic about this new community driven program. I will not be late to the party again.
swypefile is a collaborative digital “swipe file” for online marketers. Share your knowledge with others and submit quality content to swypefile, and you can generate exposure for yourself and the products or services you promote. As you become an active community member you’ll find that interesting things start to happen – you’ll make valuable contacts, you’ll get more traffic and more subscribers, people will want to do business with you, stuff like that. Aside from the obvious exposure and traffic potential of submitting content to swypefile, you’ll also earn money directly from submitting content – swypefile automatically monetizes the content you submit with Google AdSense.
Now here comes the part about making money from somebody else’s blog…are you ready…… (more…)

I have to thank [Tag-Tec]Jack Humphrey[/Tag-Tec] from The Friday Traffic Report for this idea which he got from Dosh Dosh. He posted on his website a great way to get Technorati Tag exchanges and get more links and traffic.

The secret is to hit the top 100 favorited blogs list in Technorati.

Getting into the Top 100 most favorite list is as easy as getting multiple members to to Favorite your Blog. By getting into the the top 100 most favorited list you will get more readers to your blog which in turn can turn to more subscribers.

Will getting on the list help you that much? Duh! Being listed in the world’s largest blog search engine can’t hurt.

But more importantly, doing this exercise will get a lot more attention for your site in itself. You’ll be taking part in an organized effort to draw more attention to your site.
Here’s how you do it:

1. Favorite Raymondloesch.com by visiting my Technorati page and adding me to your favorites.

2. Come back here and post your blog URL and your Technorati username in the comments area below.

3. I will favorite you in return at Technorati.

4. Watch the list below grow and start adding participants to your favorites. Everyone will be doing the same for you.

Let’s see how this does for everyone. It certainly will not hurt!
Also please Favorite Jack Humphrey and Dosh Dosh So we can return the favor for this great information.
