8 lessons for online video social media marketing success
# Pump out content consistently: “Pump out content – if you don’t produce something every day you’ll be out hustled." Be consistent in producing content and recording multiple video blogs every week. Creating content regularly builds trust and dependability and gives readers a reason to subscribe and check back often and follow you.
# Relentlessly promote: It should be a direct reflection of your high-energy, passion and sincerity
# Learn how to use online video: Immerse Yourself in The Online Video Platforms, . Use social media, blogs, Twitter, social networks — anything that invites users and keeps them active.
# Have patience: Building a business, a brand is not a sprint it is a marathon, its not about building a landing page and making millions.
# Work hard: 15 hour days If you really want it, 7 o’clock at night, to 2 in the morning is plenty of time to do damage after you have finished your day job.
# Marketing is about the 2 C’s, content and community. Don’t forget about that second C – Community – and think of your audience as human beings, not nameless, faceless potential for ROI
# Social media are just tools to help you engage with your community. They don’t make the difference, you make the difference. Use the tools to interact with your community. Word of mouth is incredible for building your brand, and social media amplifies your WOM reach.
# Show you care: Big corporations “don’t get it” because they don’t care about their company. But be glad the mainstream “doesn’t get it” because this is your opportunity to get ahead of the game. Build your equity, build your brand, before they get here.

Other options to traffic
Buying traffic from google- there impossible to do business with because there full of them self, arrogant, 2 faced between the public eye and the business side,
Manual labor traffic- web2.0, blogging, PR, articles, etc. Personaly my favorite because there less dependent on other people and businesses that are full of them self or are scams. but they are also a lot of consistent work and time to maintain
Traffic exchange- No one on these sites are there to buy. Time consuming. The best way to do this is through social networking the forums and throw in your blog for personal branding. Sync other exchange accounts together and buy there membership from all of them.
Facebook ads
* cons: 1 Less competition 2 Better targeting due to profiles 3 Cost less Before starting facebook ads you will need to know what they want or you may get your account closed. Reason being you need to know Permission marketing. Not knowing permission marketing could cost a lot of money and get you banned.
*pros: When your competition trys and fails because that dont understand permission marketing that wont come back. knowing about this learning curve is an advantage. statistics say the competition on facebook is 1/20 of google.

experience
1 when i first started out I was not sure what to make my content about now I learned the best is to take anything I'm may be reading make A way to go back to it later and use it for videos, press releases, blogs, and articles with it.
2 For any one starting out I've heard It's good to make your lead capture page useing A blog because blogs are easier and rank high in the search engines. But when you use A blog A customer will also be able to tell and most may thing you to be unprofessional. Using A blog still may be useful if you are new or can work around that flaw with quality work. This isn't something I've done because to be A professional making A real lead capture page is something I'm going to have to learn.
3 The 80/20 rule states 20% of websites do 80% of the work. So for social bookmarking focus on digg; for social networking focus on facebook; for videos focus on youtube; PPC focus on google; blogging focus on wordpress; for articles focus on ezinearticles; affiliates focus on clickbank; in press releases prweb but they are pricey.
4 Any one who bot A drill didn't want A drill, they wanted A hole. It means dont advertise about the product advertise how it can benefit the customer.

Advantages of page rank
I’ve read about sites that page rank shows there popularity in the eyes of search engines, but when working on page ranking remember search engines are looking for honest, useful content, and how important are you as a blogger. Then when you are appreciated by your community and as a blogger your PR will rank naturally.
Each webmaster or blogger have his own opinion about page rank or how to get a higher page rank, for each person it’s different from others so we can’t have the same opinions.
Google will index your site more frequently.
The higher your page rank, the more frequently Google’s spider will visit your site to index your content. Google likes sites that are frequently updated and are very well optimized so having a good page rank means, in the most cases, that your blog is an active. A higher PR helps your fresh content to be shown faster in the search engines and indexed faster. Not only that, if you are a webmaster who has other new websites that linked to your own high PR website, it will help your new websites been crawled by Google bots more often and improved the new websites in search engine results.
People purchase ads based on a site’s Page Rank.
If you sell advertising on your site in the form of text links, banners or content links, the price will be largely influenced by your PR. When you are selling an text link on your blog, visits matter much less than your page rank. When you have a blog with PR 5,you can sell text links even with 20$/month, depends on the niche of your blog.
A high Page Rank makes you look like your site is an expert.
You will always see in forums and blogs about people saying things like "How can a seo expert’s blog have a PR0?” or “That site is only PR0”. A higher Page Rank is considered evidence of good promotion of your blog through other blogs or sites.
Sometimes, people expect a certain standard from expert sources. To them high Page Rank means that you know what you do.This is not always true but it is a perception you will just have to follow. You can be an expert and not have a good page rank.
