Tweetsgiving is a project of Epic Change that seeks to demonstrate the power of twitter and the social web by spreading gratitude and raising $10,000 in 48 hours to build a classroom at the school in Tanzania. The project was inspired by the TrickorTweet campaign organized around Halloween by @TheGrok and @ChrisBrogan and by this “thank you” post.

What is it all about Brute Force SEO?

To make it short and simple: Brute Force SEO is designed to enable users to build simple sites on a huge number of authority and Web 2.0 sites, a process called by some search engine marketers ‘parasite hosting’.

When the sites have been created a linking structure is set up so that each page can expect to rank well on its own right as well as linking, ultimately to the money pages.

After this the Brute Force software syndicates all the feeds created to about 20 Rss directories and search engines, the search engine spiders follow the links to your new pages.

Afterward your content added to BruteForce SEO is submitted to a network of quality article directories where they will be read and, hopefully, syndicated onward.

If you’ve added video (which I highly recommend) to the system then Brute Force SEO will submit it to 20 video directories.

With the exception of adding content to the system almost everything is automated. And the best thing is: It WORKS! Of course where captchas are needed to show that a human is at work then we users need to do some work.

As Pete reckons that setting up an entire network of sites using Brute Force SEO will take about 30 minutes, I did first test run on saturday which took me about 50 minutes!!!

A point to note is that BruteForce SEO can handle several projects at once so one can spend a morning setting up several networks, interrupted only by the need to add captchas and review progress.

Domination of Google results with Pete’s software is now easier than ever. Brute Force uses techniques that I have used and know work, giving me similar results to those claimed for BFS (3 fist page listings on Google after 4 hours for my choosen keyword, if that is someting you like….) And BFS saving me lots of time compared to do all that stuff manually.

To recap benefits of BruteForce SEO

1) You don’t need any special skills
2) The software doesn’t require programming
3) It works exceptionally well straight away
4) It can work for you as soon as you download it
5) It’s extremely easy and has massive potential for cash
Only 400 spots available, the first 1000 went very fast, so I recommend to not Lose your Spot and give it a try for just $1.

In many ways e-commerce allows you to profit from behind the scenes. Your order buttons and shopping cart system, along with well-written sales copy, do all the work for you around the clock whether or not you ever make an appearance.

This is all changing with Web 2.0 marketing. Your core assets in the world of Web 2.0 marketing are, believe it or not, your winning smile and your personal first impression.

We may be exaggerating slightly. But only slightly.

The fact is, when using Web 2.0 sites to promote you aren’t selling products and services, you are selling yourself! Setting up a great profile is crucial for your success in Web 2.0 marketing.

Your prospects must instantly feel they can relate to and like you. This leads to trust and a personal connection, which of course paves the way for wonderful customer relations.

The first thing you need to accept is this: Not everyone is going to like you!

Everyone you meet offline doesn’t fall madly in love with you and/or want to be your best friend. Don’t expect this to be any different when using social media and Web 2.0 marketing strategies.

Your focus should be on making a real connection with people you have something in common with. No matter who you are, there are thousands of people online who will be able to relate to you so just relax and be yourself.

Here are some basics to keep in mind when setting up your highly effective profile.

Use Your Real Name

When setting up a profile always use your real, full name. Never go with a username as this is not only a bit childish, it screams “amateur” or even suggests you have something to hide.

Provide Real Personal Details Where Appropriate

Use your true age or birth date, and enter the city and country where you live. Of course you don’t want to enter bank account info and your full street address for the general public to view, but you do want to give the impression of being very open and accessible, because this is the whole point of Web 2.0 marketing in the first place.
Be Yourself At All Cost

Be sure to list your real interests, and write your entire profile in the kind of language you personally use on a daily basis. Really go to lengths to allow the real you to shine through here. The point of your profile is to resonate with other people that share your interests and personality traits so don’t hold back and don’t be shy.

With Web 2.0 marketing you won’t be blazing away with slick sales talk and hard pitches right off the bat. Instead you’ll be making a personal first impression and inviting other people to introduce themselves and essentially just strike up a friendly conversation.

Think of your profile like your personal representative at a local chamber of commerce meeting. It’s imperative that your profile reflects who you really are and all the great value you can offer.

Be sure to put your best foot forward. But above all, as stated previously, just be yourself.
To Your Web 2.0 Marketing Success!

RSS or Really Simple Syndication or Rich Site Summary is the latest information management tool that is gradually earning popularity among web users and website owners. With RSS technology, it is possible to get the latest postings from your favorite websites. But clicking on the RSS or XML button in a homepage is not enough to give you the service you need. An RSS feed or code displayed in the pop-up screen if not on the main page is composed of symbols and words that would only make sense to advanced RSS users and computer programmers and software enthusiasts. Another software tool called an RSS aggregator or reader is needed.

An aggregator works by scanning the worldwide web with latest postings based on the RSS code (containing the website’s URL) provided or added by the user. When it finds a new posting, news, or update, it will publish the RSS feed on your home page containing the title of the posting, which also serves as a clickable link to the website source. This RSS feed may or may not contain the whole article, a summary, and photos, depending on what RSS aggregator you are using.

Aggregators come in two types: the downloadable program or desktop-type and the online or web-based type. The desktop aggregator usually charges a certain amount for its services; this would include regular updating in the form of upgrades or patches to the original version. This type of RSS reader allows more customization of RSS feeds as well as page format or design over its on-line counterparts. But of course, price can be a drawback.

On-line or web-based aggregators are free of charge. All you need to do is register an account with them then you can start enjoying their services. Depending on the “brand” of the aggregator, customization is more limited. Some even do not allow you to customize at all.

Product and service advertisers are realizing the potential of RSS aggregators in internet marketing. In fact, several submit RSS codes to several popular web-based aggregators to reach the growing technophile and internet-based market. My Yahoo has been instrumental in popularizing RSS technology to both users and website owners and advertisers.

At present, there are many aggregators to choose from and newer versions of the same aggregator are constantly developed by its programmers.

Below are some of these desktop and online aggregators:
