Tiny.cc another Great and Free tool in the net

Since I started using twitter, I became frustrated in making my tweet. tweets are limited to 140 character's each. The problem is I just love to type and I type fast and just hit enter and click on submit without checking if everything is ok. So what happens is the links in my tweets are always truncated because it's too long. So I need to shorten it.

So off to Google and Search. "How can I shorten my link?" Google said, go to bit.ly or tiny.cc

Bit.ly didn't sound good to me. It's sounded like a very techie site. Now tiny.cc is just right. It makes my looooong affiliate links tiny. It really did that. Instead of having a loooong impersonal affiliate link and instead of buying a domain name (costing me $9.99 and monthly webhosting which I am tyring to avoid for now) i got my tin.cc link.

The best thing with tiny.cc is you can monitor how many people visited your link (and thus your site). All you need to do is add a tidle or

Funny thing is I don't know how to type a tidle. I can't find the symbol in my keyboard and I don't know what it's ALT + (key????) is. So if anyone of you know, tell me.

So I did just that I typed http://tiny.cc/freenpowerful~ saw my stats. Clicked on Monthly view and wow, my lazy effort in marketing my site did have an effect! Just looking at the graph encourages me to go on and market my stuff. It does work! For the first time, I can measure my efforts and see the results. 

This is also true for http://tiny.cc/idteams~ I now have 4 people that is in my email list. They didn't join yet. But that's ok...I know 4 people? What the hell! That's too small. I know but as they say "Big things start small!"

Free And Powerful 1st update

This is the first time that I got members under me in a program. I learned a lot from their FREE tutorial on how to use Facebook, Twitter and SocialOomph.

Now I understand what Social Media Marketing means.

What did I do? Well, I signed up with Freen and Powerful and headed to FREE Method. They have really good videos on what to do.

I really did everything step by step. I watched the videos on how to use Facebook to get your lead. It's around only 10 to 15 mins. After watching, I just did the steps they indicated. Then I watched the Twitter video and did the steps they said. The best video I watched was how to use SocialOomph's Direct Message feature. Wow, now I understand the relationship between the three sites.

In a nutshell, You make a cool and personal profile that has only one link to your business in your profile page. You head to your Twitter account and follow people (less than a 100) would be good, or else twitter will ban you. 40% of the people you follow will also follow you. After doing this, you go directly to your SocialOomph's account and add Twitter and create your Direct Message to those who will follow you in Twitter. You can say: " Hi Thanks for following me in Twitter. I also have a facebook account http:facebook/profile if you like my profile please add me." or something like that. It's a simple version, I really advice you to watch the videos your self. Now maybe only a handful of people will go to your Facebook and add you. Once they do, you can thank them and then share your link with them: " Thanks for adding me, it's great to connect with people who are interested in online marketing. Please check my site at http://mysite."

Well, I did that for a week. Not religouesly (is this the correct spelling?) Anyway, I did that for three days within the week and only for 2 hours each day. Guess what? I got 3 members with my lazy effort. Just imagine if I didn't laze around? It would be much more!

That's it for now. If you got interested, sign up now

SBi Experiment and Affiliate Programs that need you to buy a domain name

Well it's been a while and to tell you frankly, I didn't work on the SBI Experiment. After awhile of doing stuff, I realized that yes, you do need to be a member of SBI so you can sell it effectively. Since its a Domain Name/Web hosting affiliate, you do need to have your own domain and it should be hosted at their site, this will greatly help you get money with their affiliate program.

However, as I said I do not have the extra $ to pay for a monthly hosting which is required by SBI. I guess it's not for me...yet.

So the quest goes on.
