SPAM in the place where you live.......
Social Media is not a Fad..... sites like Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin, Youtube, Ning, Myspace are ruling the rankings when it comes to the most popular websites. Facebook just took the number 2 spot on Alexa beating out yahoo for the first time just this week. Google is of course number 1. If fact most of the social media sites are ranking at least in the top 25. we are talking about millions of websites and they are ranking this high? Here are some examples of how to use social media.
Person #1
Some people actually think that they can start a profile invite a bunch of friends they don't know or care about and send them links to stuff they don't need in hopes of making a quick buck. They will even go so far as to pretend to know someone else and then trick you into checking out a link to a Ground floor opportunity here today gone tomorrow deal. If it was going to dissapear tomorrow then why would I need it or even want it?
Person #2
The person who sends annoying gifts or apps or links gets reported and gets their account suspended. Then they say see I knew it socail media doesn't work.
Person #3
The person who markets properly to a certain niche market invites friends and gives value constantly. builds a following and becomes the go to person for a certain particular field.
which one do you want to be? which one are you now? Have you read the terms on these sites?
Everyone of these social media sites clearly states the rules they have about SPAM. and evryone of these social media sites says DON'T DO IT.
It doesn't work anyway so why would you waste your time trying to beat your head against the wall. It is actually easier and a lot more fun and rewarding to build relationships first and then people will come to you when they need more information or are looking for an answer. You will be the first person they think of because you have been there giving them advise and help along the way. It's a win win situation for everyone involved.

7 Tips On How to Choose A Good Domain Name
The first thing that is common between a visitor and a search engine is that ,when they both come to your website, they first see your URL i.e. Domain Name. So, that means it is important for your domain name to be both compelling and search friendly. Today ALL search engines not just Google, Yahoo, MSN, give a lot of weight to Domain Names. Because of the very high importance given to Domain names it's becoming more important to choose domains very wisely. Final selection of domain can make a tremendous positive impact in SERP in all search Engines. Here are seven tips on how to choose a good domain name that can help you in getting good rankings and good SERP in Search Engines.
1. Keywords in Domain: Adding Keywords is nice but they don't matters much, but ya they have their own importance.Putting Keywords in your domain is very first step in achieving SERP.You must add Keyword phrases in Domain name, as they are important from Search Engine Point of view.But don't stuff your domain with a lot of keyword, if you will do that it will look like a spam domain.Put only one or two keywords in your domain.
2. Are domain Name extensions important: I don't think that any particular domain extension gives you more benefit. All domain extensions are equally important for Search Engines.I have found and personally registered some good domain names in the .com, .biz, .cc, .ca and .ws category. The choice is yours. Remember that the extension is not important. All search engines today treat domain names equally, with no preference if they are of the .com, .net, .org, .us, .ca, .biz or any other extension there is. What IS important are the keywords between the “www” and the extension!.But from a Visitors point of view, the .com is preferred then .net and .org .
3. Short and Memorable: Make your domain names as short as possible , also make sure that your doamin name is easily memorable, so that one visitor which comes to your website, can easily remember your URL. Don't make it too complicated or too long. Your URL should be easily memorable and should be very easy to spell. If visitors find your URL complicated ,long, or very hard to spell, that means you are loosing most of your Direct Traffic.
4.Related to your Business:Niche is very important. Your Domain Name should reflect your business. Choose a domain that can explain about your business. Also buy Alternative domains.
e.g. if i am going to buy this domain http://www.automaticnetworker.com, then i should also go to buy http://www.autonetworker.com etc. Buying alternative URLs can help you in getting all your visitors.
5. Misspelled Versions: It is a good idea to keep in mind misspelled domain versions. I learned this the hard way when giving someone my domain or email over the phone. http://www.jeffreygoodwin.com or http://www.jefferygoodwin.com Then you just forward the others to the main site. If it sounds different speaking or if it has a commonly misspelled version it doesn't hurt to just own both. Domains are now less than $15.00 today per year compared to $30 per year just a few years ago.
6.Hyphenated domain names or un-hyphenated: Hyphenated domains are good to use if you are adding your keywords in domains, and then put a hyphen in your keyword to separate from each other. Don't add too much keywords or too much hyphens in your keywords, it will look like spam.
Advantages of Hyphenated Domain Names:
Search engines can distinguish every word in the domain name, giving a very small advantage in search engine rankings.
Eliminates potentially embarrassing confusion (is it www.WellsExporter.com or www.WellSexPorter.com).
Easily distinguish words in a domain name.
When other websites link to yours using your domain name as the anchor text, the search engines can distinguish the words in this link, giving a slightly greater advantage in search engine rankings.
7. Expired Domains: If possible go for buying a domain which is or has been expired, as these expired domains will already be in the Search engines cache. The older your domain the more benefit you will get from Search Engines, and also from Visitors.
P.S. Purchasing Domains: Use a good Trusted Domain company. Try to pick one that has been around awhile and will notify you and take care of your needs. GOdaddy seems at first to be the one to go to. Just be aware that GODaddy will give you many offers when you try to purchase a domain. I don't know about you but time is money. I want to be able to get in and get out quickly. I am even willing to spend a few more bucks to accomplish this. One site I use not well known but very good customer service and speedy checkout is Lowest Domain Names (click here) They have a very user friendly site. They offer URL Forwarding masked and unmasked, Email Forwarding, Automatic renewal, and a host of other services to help you. They don't try to force feed them to you as you try to purchase and they really get back to you right away with answers. I have been using them for at least 8 years now and they have raised their prices once by $1.00 since. I actually found them by accident and have been plesantly surprised by the service. Here is the link again for www.lowestdomainrates.com
I hope these tips will help you in choosing a domain for your online business. Be sure to sign up For more free tips on the left of this post and check out my recommended automatic tools
Remember one thing. Bad domain names can make all your hard time spent wasted in achieving good SERP.

Why you will never make money online with your home based business
Find out what the so called Guru’s don’t want you to find out. It’s so simple, but requires you to stay focused.
There is a simple reason why many people fail to make any money online (at all!). Many people read, read and read and do not take action. You have probably heard it before, but it’s true. The so called Gurus keep you so busy studying and buying their products, they do not help you at all. Only a few of them really answer individual questions that may help you to think outside the box or even create a product or system of your own.
Information overload Is a common problem I too have experienced myself. You are constantly trying to find out how people make money, but you forget to try to implement the techniques you have learned so far. Finding new opportunities for your business is essential. It is essential to buy anything that could provide value to you and your business. What I recommend is to write down everything you remember after reading an ebook, course, tutorial, Watching a video on YouTube, Listening to a podcast or whatever else is out there (this may seem pretty obvious, but you would be amazed by the people that just won’t do it). Mike Dillard famous author of “Magnetic Sponsoring” uses the simple “notepad” text editor on his PC and creates a folder to save all of his text files in there. He writes down the five tasks he wants to accomplish each day like Write an Ezine article about the 10 reasons to have a Twitter account or upload a new video to YouTube with relevant tags in the description. Notice these are actual tasks not just a generic to do list. Set clear manageable tasks to complete and you will be amazed at what you will accomplish in just a couple of days.
Actually, I am surprised to learn that many people suffer the same problems as me, when I first started out. To get help ask your friends on Facebook or Myspace. These are great social networks and help build a conversation so you can begin to build relationships with your audience. I always ask open ended questions and I am amazed at the responses I get. Example: “Today I am learning about YouTube what kind of videos do you enjoy Educational, How-To or Funny?” On the surface this looks like just another open ended question and it is. It’s also market research for you to find out what your audience likes so you can get more views and stay interesting. That way you can save time and get a head start to become attractive and gain more subscribers to your channel. Try to limit starting too many projects. Stay focused, learn 1 major skill at a time and master it.
Have you heard of the 80/20 rule of marketing? 20% of our work determines 80% of our outcome! Try to find the 20% that will work for you. Do not try to master skills that are not important for your business. Set detailed realistic goals.
Also make use of all the free resources. There are many free trials out there (See my list of Automation Tools I Use for examples). For more information about how to get access to watch over the shoulder click by click free training click here. Also sign up for my FREE Social Media Tips on the left side of this blog post. Most important make it a daily habit to take action and practice, practice, practice.

YouTube Better Than Google?
As you may or may not know, YouTube is the 2nd most popular Social Network on the web (2nd only to Facebook), and is the 3rd most popular search engine behind google, and yahoo.
You've likely heard the phrase "a picture's worth a thousand words" well if that's true, how much is video worth?
Some of the primary benefits of using online video of any kind:
> People are used to watching T.V. (online video fits the habit)
> Auditory & Visual (no reading required)
> Adds personality to your brand, product, or company
> Easier to establish trust, network, and build stronger relationships by engaging your audience this way
> You create a video one time and it goes to work for you 24/7/365
Savvy Marketers Utilize Online Video to:
> Create an infomercial for product or service - just like a T.V. commercial
> Explain a sign-up or opt-in process
> Deliver an entire sales letter, blog post, or even a product launch "trailer"
> Feature Customer Testimonials
> Make reviews of affiliate products
Over 80% of people online spend over 60% of their time online watching... VIDEO! You'd have to be crazy or stupid or a little of both to not utilize or under-utilize online video in your marketing efforts.
The most important thing I can recommend is learning as much about using video, and more importantly OPTIMIZING your video's so they get seen tens of thousands of times or more.
I've reviewed several YouTube/online video training courses available. Most of which are a useless waste of time and money.
Recently, I reviewed one course that is beyond light years ahead of anything out there, and whether you no nothing about online video or think you know everything about online video, this course goes above and beyond everything you could ever want from the Ideal YouTube/Online Video Marketing course. It's called the "YouTube Secret Weapon" appropriately named, it is now my secret weapon.
To learn more about the "YouTube Secret Weapon" visit http://YouTube-SecretWeapon.com
PS- There have been a ton of un-advertised special bonuses that are worth their weight in gold. I'm not sure why they didn't advertise them, only maybe to well over-deliver on what you'll be in for. Here are just a few...
*YouTube Catchup* Webinar that takes/took place on
Friday, April 17th, 2009 at 1PM EDT / 10 AM PDT.
There have been several recent changes on YouTube, and we want
to not only catch you up to speed on what we know there, but we'll also discuss a few more changes we anticipate coming down the pike....

In this busy world of the Internet and Twitter, there comes a time when you need to take a break. So how can you take a break when you need to send that important message at exactly 2 pm on

2) I have a dentist appointment then.
3) I want to go out to lunch but I'm stuck at my computer.
4) I forget what time I'm supposed to send my tweets?
5) My kids baseball game is during that time.
Here is my solution TWEETLATER yes there is a way to set and forget your timely tweets.

More and more people will be looking online for opportunity. Where are you going to position yourself? How will you participate? What is your next move? These are questions I ask myself daily and to tell you the truth nobody is going to help you because they are too busy either helping themselves or living in denial that this economy is going to fix it self and go back to the way it was. WRONG! we got ourselves into this mess and we can get out of it too. I have discovered a FREE Report that goes into detail how you can improve your economy not next year, not next week, but today. This is completely free and it will give you a whole new outlook on how to Monetize your Mind using the Internet. After you read this report leave some comments and share your thoughts. Here is a link to an interview with the author questioning online marketing Guru Mike Klingler about the same subject CLICK HERE

How Important is a Website Today?
Even if your business is offline, you will benefit from having a website....
“not having one (a website) is almost suicidal. Being online might not
necessarily win a company business, but if they are not online, they are
not even in the game”
…..Professor William Dutton, Director of the Oxford Internet Institute
What Types of Business will benefit from a website?
Restaurants --- Takeaways --- Sandwich Services --- Consultants ---
Hairdressers --- Painter and Decorators --- Therapists --- Gardeners ---
Beauticians --- Auto-Repair Centres --- Physiotherapists --- Tutors ---
Insurance Brokers --- Day Care Centres --- Shops --- Nail Salons ---
Tax Advisors --- Cleaning Companies --- House Maintenance Services ---
Dressmakers --- Music Teachers --- Personal Trainers --- Plumbers ---
Freelance Writers --- Professional Musicians --- Chiropractors ---
Bookeepers --- Electricians --- and many more
Does Your Group Need a Website?
Many different kinds of organizations, community groups, institutions,
clubs, teams and associations can benefit from having a dedicated website.
Here are just a few examples ....

groups..... clubs..... associations..... special event committees..... crafts guilds.....

What Would You Do If Someone Tried To Steal Your Dream?
I am going to talk today about Network Marketing although this can apply to just about any business where you are an "Independent Representative" or receive a 1099 for your role in moving a Product or Service for someone else. What would you do if you were representing a large company growing at a record pace, actively participating in the distribution of the Products or Opportunity, Totally committed, building a team, and making weekly checks. Even hitting the bonuses and helping others succeed and make weekly checks? You would probably be pretty excited right? I mean your belief level would build and you would become more committed and then make more money. How would you react and what would you do if your up line leadership team without notice or warning just quit or left the company? No big deal right? It happens, so you head north and find another leader right? OK, what if the Master Distributor and the Top income earners plus the Entire Corporate Team were to walk out without notice? Now what would you do? What if that same group tried to overtake the company from the CEO with no warning or even so much as a complaint was filed and it was all done in top secret meetings? How would you feel if you were the CEO of this company and it was happening to you? How do you protect yourself from this affecting YOUR income? They sell you on the dream that Network Marketing is the answer to all your problems and then they turn around and put thousands of families lives on the line for what? more money? more power? more personal satisfaction that it can be done? Try to Bully a Corporate CEO with 100% ownership into mutiny? Why? Is that what Network Marketing has become today? All of a sudden this Great CEO who has built several companies to success along with a few failures (We all have failed in order to succeed) is now a "Tyrant"? I mean was this the plan all along? Let's see... Find a successful CEO with no Network Marketing experience fund a personal vision, Personally select a Top Dream Team and Master Distributor. Get an almost impossible Endorsement for a product that actually works. Attract a high caliber of Doctors, Lawyers, CEO's, Business Owners, Dentists, Single Mothers, Firefighters, Gen Xer's, Baby Boomers, Etc. Now that everything is in place we have our 18 months of proof,... Let's take over the company! Who cares about the 60,000 other distributors opinions they will just keep doing what we tell them to do... Come on. Let's get real people. This is no surprise to me. Shocking? yes. Unfortunately this happens in any type of business model when Power and Greed starts to creep in.. So I ask you now, How do you protect yourself from this type of landslide? How do you recover from it? Well, the answer is not to Quit. Don't quit on yourself or your dreams. Build a protection for yourself from the beginning. You need to stay in control of your business. It is Your business. It is up to you to bounce back and recover from this. How do you do that? you build you own system right in front of their system. It's like a wall around your castle or Insurance for your Insurance. Find out more here http://www.mlmrx.com Once you have this in place you don't need to panic when someone above you tries to crush your dreams... you can smile, take a deep breath, and send a message to your team much like this. "Now, aren't you glad you took the extra step to protect your investment? Let's go on a weekend trip to discuss how we are going to help rebuild. See you at the beach...."

Top 5 ways to Dominate Social Media
So You want to find out what Social Media sites are the best? How can you Tap into this stream of explosive growth. Social Media Is here to stay and dominating the search engines. YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Myspace these sites turn the tables on making it a level playing field for marketing. Specifically in today's global economy! Everyone is making adjustments to what, where and how they spend their money. Even top marketers who spend money on Pay per click, Banner, Sponsorships and JV. You name it everyone is adjusting. What does this mean for you? If you can find the right niche market, you will win BIG. Think back to the Goldrush days in California. People came from everywhere to mine for gold. Some found gold and some lost everything. Who do you think made the most money hand over fist, even after the First movers and shakers came to town? It was the entrepreneur that sold the picks, shovels, gloves, dynamite, carts, pans, lights, advice and all the tools necessary to DIG for the Gold! They made income for years even after the Rush. Why? Timing! When a New Idea hits the market do you think it's better to be at the beginning of the trend? or after it is well established and everyone is using it and loving it? It is probably safe to say that most everyone has heard of these social sites and Web 2.0. Is everyone using it correctly to create a piece of the income that is being made through this medium? Shockingly no. This is where you come in. In my opinion the Social Media sites that you should be focusing on right now are the ones where all the traffic is. This makes sense right? You could probably guess which ones to focus on but you actually don't have to. There is a site on the internet that keeps all of this data for you and they do it FREE. Free is a word I love when it comes to marketing. I am going to show you a lot of ways you can market yourself and some of the best ways believe it or not, are indeed FREE.
Let's start with Http://www.alexa.com this website rocks. They track all websites submitted to the search engines and rank them by how popular they are. You can even download a FREE toolbar so you can see the ranking of any website. Talk about a true time saver. Anything in the Top 10 should be your main objective to dominate in your market.
YouTube is #3 barely behind Google #2 and Yahoo #1.
Myspace is #6
Facebook #8 and
Twitter is #599 Twitter is the exception because it's the new kid on the block and from how it's just killing the charts SEE HERE (More on Twitter later) All of these sites are FREE to Join (Click any of the links above to take you there). YouTube is the best one to start with because of Video. If a Picture can tell a thousand words, Imagine what Video can do? You become a real person worldwide. I believe YouTube is by far the best invention for communication other than the Internet itself. Bigger than Email will ever be because you can now send video in your email. You are real. People can See you, Feel your emotion and even read your body language. How incredible is that? That is the most powerful message you can bring to the table. Don't think you need to be polished because that is not You. This is not TV AnchormanTube, It's YOUTUBE. Not everyone is going to relate to you. That's O.K. Actually that's great because you don't want everyone to relate, you want them to listen. People are burnt out on Commercials, why do you think DVR's are so popular, so you can fast forward through the commercials. You can watch your favorite TV shows online now. If you want the cliff notes you can get it where? Youtube.
YouTube.com was formed in mid-February 2005 by 3 former
paypal employees.
Lets just say a lot of stuff happened and we'll
fast-forward a few years to what you care about which
is today, present year, 2009...

As of April 9, 2008 a YouTube search returns 83.4 million
videos and climbing by the minute!
YouTube accounts for well over 60% of all video online.
Now here's the most mind-blowing thing about youtube...
Get this...
It was estimated that on March 31, 2008, there were
1,407,724,920 GLOBAL INTERNET USERS.

What is an Automatic Networker anyway?
Hello Everyone in cyberspace. Millions of Blogs to choose from and you have found me! Thank you for checking out my little slice of the Internet. By now you may be thinking Who is Jeffrey Goodwin and what can he do for me? Let me start by telling you how I felt and what questions I started to ask when I started. I have always been facinated with Social Media and Web Presence. I always just wrote it off as a place for teens to talk and exchange quick information about local events or to touch base with lost friends and family. I never thought it would turn into the confused web of endless chaos that it has become today. So how can you monetize your business using this type of media without getting lost in the process? What is the Secret ingredient to keeping everything organized? Which Sites should I focus on? Which should I avoid? How do I know I'm not just spinning my wheels and wasting my time? How am I going to find the time to check all of these profiles? Is Social Media just a passing fad? How much traffic can I generate? How much money will I need to invest to get started? All of these questions and more will be answered in a unique way because I will not just answer them, I will show you how to setup each step to Total Automation. Sure you will need to update your content, but that is the fun part. Once you have the FREE Organic Traffic coming to you daily, then you just bring the BAM (Brain And Motivation). Be sure to subscibe so you can save yourself time and money with the Tips and Tricks I will show you. Welcome to the Automatic Networker Blog.
