Social Networking Sites and one that Pays You?
Tuesday, November 6, 2007 at 03:51AM This is an email I sent to the community on November 6th
Hi. Are you using Social Networking sites to build your lists and to send traffic to your blog or website at no cost?
People are using these to create some serious traffic and to become very successful at marketing without spending a dime. This is another method my team has used to attract tens of thousands of opt in emails to our lists, which has translated into thousands of dollars earned, just from the results created on these social networking sites alone.
It’s not difficult to plug into it. You don’t need special programming or marketing knowledge to start seeing results early on. As you learn more about it, of course, you can get more from it, but it’s easy to begin and it’s another great way to get traffic at no cost on the Internet.
Sites like MySpace.com and Facebook.com are just some of the more successful social sites.
How do they work?
Social networking sites basically allow you to put your photo and information about you (including links) at a free location within a web ‘community.’ What makes a social networking site unique is that it’s very easy to connect with other members there. You can post messages that people in ‘your network group’ all see. As your network groups grow you start to get some serious marketing leverage. You can invite people into your network based on similar interests, and you can receive invitations as well. Since that’s the structure of a social networking site it’s very easy to build a contact list.
With millions of people (literally) registered at these sites, it’s smart to plug in if you haven’t already. If you’re already using these sites, stay active there. What do you do? The same thing you should be doing always in business—provide value to others. Offer tips, advice, help. This attracts people to you. Then you can market to them while offering that value.
A social site that pays you?
Recently, a site called Yuwie has entered the scene with a similar goal as Agloco—but they’re using social networking as their vehicle rather than the view bar. It looks like it has a lot more potential because they’ve just launched and already have over 200,000 registered members. They’re all set up to allow you to communicate with everyone easily (which is the point of a social networking site). And they’ve already started sending out checks. Basically you get paid as people hit your web page as well as the web pages of others you refer down 10 levels. It’s an interesting idea and worth looking into. http://www.yuwie.com/yuwie.asp?r=239887&vid=
MySpace.com and Facebook.com don’t pay like Yuwie does, but they are excellent sources to plug into for marketing. You can also type ‘social networking’ into Google and find many others, but I suggest first looking into the 3 I’ve mentioned here.
I’ve mentioned 3 different social networking sites here that I suggest you plug into and start learning more about. In the coming months we’ll spend more time offering training on how to fully take advantage of social networking sites to really get a lot of traffic. For now, if you’re a beginner, I suggest you get started by plugging into any of the 3 social sites I’ve mentioned here.
If you want to succeed just keep moving forward. The answers are out there!

PS Are you the next winner of the 25 Agloco Referrals? We just did the drawing for the next winner of the next 25 Agloco referrals. The person who won had cancelled his email subscription just this month so he can’t receive the prize. I’m going to do something creative to pick the next winner of these 25 referrals! I’ll send an email soon to give my most loyal email readers a chance to win those 25 Agloco referrals this week. Here’s what you’ll have to do to have a chance to win. You need to have signed up for the free traffic (that I sent an email to you about a few days ago) or you can sign up for it now at either of these two links: www.RenegadeSupport.com or http://www.trafficswarm.com/go.cgi?581657
You will have also needed to active your account there by surfing for 50 credits, which gives you the ability to start advertising free. I’ll send an email in a few days. If you have done these steps you will have a chance to win this week.
