I was catching up on some comments at some of my other sites. And someone questioned the fact that I occasionally say that my colleagues should charge more for their products.
It is one thing when someone just point blank asks you why you do something.
It’s another when they accuse you of having some other motive, when all of your other actions online CLEARLY state something different.
With all the free stuff I give away, and resources I point to, and blog posts that I could turn into ebooks and charge for instead, do I REALLY seem like the kind of person who just says things so I can make sixteen more bucks this month.
LMAO!
Out of about 100 products of the thousands I am asked to review and reccommend, I’ve said Read more

My other “of the day” is an article that is also, admittedly, from way back, but I like what Pankaj Mohan had to say about the two methods he thought of to take advantage of the viral video trend.
He basically had two ideas. Read more

My blog of the day about getting Web Video Traffic is Will Video for Food for this great How Not-To post about the Seven Deadly Sins of Advertising via Viral Video.

The question from the last segment I posed:
But first, we’ve got to talk about how, in light of this shift, if we’re going to create ads or traffic drawing content in video format, aren’t we wasting money if people just skip commercials anyway?
My answer was Not Necessarily. And I mean it two ways. We aren’t necessarily wasting money, and people aren’t necessarily skipping commercials. Let me give you an example - here’s the story I promised.

Web Video Traffic | What About the TiVo Effect? Part One
What’s the TiVo Effect?
Now that we can all time-shift with our television content, one thing advertisers don’t like is the fact that most of the time, people will skip commericals in TiVo. On the one hand, I can’t blame them. After all, they’re the ones footing the bill so I can watch NBC for free.
But what gets lost in this issue is why people skip commercials. (I promise this is relevant to you shortly. Indulge me?) Read more

My prediction is that as this new influx of broadband users come to the Web, a lot of them will be trained to see the Web as an always-on entertainment center, library and business tool. It’s already happening.
One indicator - 12% of Internet users have estimated to have download a podcast according to an August study, compared to Read more

The big change to wrap your mind around is that as internet access change, internet content changes. When content changes, so do traffic patterns.
If you can get decent traffic to something, the potential to monetize that traffic increases with the amount of either raw traffic or targeted traffic (ie. one million casual visitors a month to a site that has ads paying $3 CPM is valuable real estate, as is a site that generates a month 5000 hyper-targeted visitors to a $100 product).

Bookmark | Save | Share | EmailWeb Video | The Numbers Make Sense Part One
So, a while back, I said on The Blog Business Success Radio Show with Wayne Hulbert that traffic from videos was going to be huge for businesses this year that are paying attention.
Internet marketers and affiliate marketers in particular could take great advantage of videos. Why is that? Because, for example, it’s much easier to get a top ranking for a highly searched term like internet marketing that is hard to get on the first page of Google for with video content than it is for document content.

That’s what we’re going to talk about, can web video bring traffic to your site? Does it matter what kind of site you have or does it matter more what kind of video it is? And, as with anything else, if you can get targeted traffic to web videos, does that mean that you’ll be able to monetize them evenually, making a living just from web video?
Before I start looking up videos and looking at the money, here’s part of the perspective I’m thinking about this from….
