!!!!THE BEST TRAFFIC is f r e e.

After a lengthy discussion with my love-to-hate JW Women, this afternoon, who kept pointing at a distant kingdom, while I happen to know it’s right her and right now, but that’s another subject, I realized that they are the only church ever going out of their way and to each neighbor promoting Jesus.

In Real Estate terms, that would be farming. What can one achieve with farming? One spreads ones square net over blocks and blocks (word sound familiar?) and does not miss one fish. One never says “not this fish, or that fish”, because things change and the most unqualified one usually turns out to be a million dollar catch.

So, since you may not be familiar with Real Estate agent education, I gave you the Jehovah’s Witnesses. They do the same thing, only better. They insist in leaving something with you in order to have a reason to return. Does that ring a bell?

It’s never about them, it’s about the bible, Jesus and you getting the message. Translate that into blog farming, and you get the perfect strategy.

Whom would it benefit? The blog owner, in particular the Niche blog owner.

We have a dilemma with the English language: It has too many words, many of them with multiple meanings. Theoretically, each person could claim to own one of them, but that would short-change a few, or could divert the message. So, one does what Math taught us and this sign (!) stands for: 1+2+3+n/1×2x3xn. It’s the quotient of the combination of each possibility.

This is not at all complicated. Just take 3, or 4 keywords describing the uniqueness of your blog and combine them, and then select the best combination.

When you have this beautiful sounding term, you focus on it and never let go.

Why should you hold on to that term?

You want to own it. There are strategies that have nothing to do with SEO and are much less flexible than SE positions, thus serving you, the blog owner potentially forever.

So, now we have the term describing your specialty blog to those who are looking for you. What do you give them? Exactly what they want.

First, you select the particular original information you already know and edit into it this ownership term several times. Then you add affiliate products to your portfolio, to whose web sites you can link one or two words within your text each; all well spread-out.

This one term also dominates your title, keywords & description tags within the theme header template’s head tags above your php script.

You will NOT directly divulge your affiliate links. You use a service like http://simurl.com/yourcustomname that has all your links in one place and gives you a custom name after the forward slash. This is easy to manage, when your affiliate programs change, and does not confuse you with hard to remember twenty-digit tracking codes while tracking your traffic all the same.

When you have integrated a moderate contextual amount of referrals, it is time to start a new blog on another subject, of which you have at least heard, and do the same over again.

The conventional way of packaging this was called ‘horizontal’ marketing. And after saturating ones horizontal package, one would just add unrelated products and refer them to the same customer base. This would be the conventional ‘vertical’ marketing strategy.

However, on the Internet, one posts one article, and in one minute via RSS, not only ones own customers, but the entire world could come running to your blog, if you’re doing it right. Now, we are talking about parallel marketing, and no longer one, or the other.

So, specialty blog owners sidestep conventions, rise above them, and viralize them one jump at a time by multiple blogging; each blog being linked to one-another.

It sounds scary at first, but is no longer, when one considers all the help from blog automation tools that enable any one to easily establish a consortium of small blogs whose traffic would overwhelm retail establishments.

Truly no reason to worry, for blog software and plug-ins help one handle any rush.

Totally Amazing Enhancement from FiOS TV Friday, Sep 25 2009 

Verizon already announced the enhancements to its FiOS TV Twitter and Facebook widgets. These are two widget recently added for free in its interactive social TV applications. With the new enhancements, subscribers of FiOS service can send in Twitter messages in real-time and update Facebook profile using an on-screen keyboard.

The company is concentrating on adding new functionalities to improve customer experience of social networking. While using Verizon’s television service, users will have additional ways to connect with one another with the use of the newly added features.

“The Widget Bazaar”, is a new store front to be released in July, as Verizon widens its FiOS TV along with Facebook, Twitter, ESPN, and online video services. This introduction is aimed at offering new widgets and applications to the users of the FiOS TV. Verizon will soon be launching “The Widget Bazaar” to third-party developers under the revenue-sharing agreements.

It’s a challenging role for FiOS with cable operators aggressively promoting triple play services to consumers (for example, TV, Internet, and voice). This way the corporation is planning to stay ahead of the competition by offering more FiOS TV features allowing consumers to have more options on their TV experience.

A key factor of Verizon’s long range expansion plans continues to grow with its FiOS TV and high-speed internet offerings online. As this happens, they plan to cater more markets across different states. The FiOS TV has an outstanding consumer growth which is also reflected by their steady expansion over last 2 quarters. Verizon had about a few million consumers of its FiOS TV marked at the end of 2nd quarter 2009. Verizon will better compete in the telecommunications business against companies such as AT&T and Sprint once they are able to fully cover other states of their fiber optic system (FiOS) and fully enhance their existing wireless system to provide 4G capabilities.
