You already know about the MEGA SHIFT that search engines have made in looking at Social Signals as a MAJOR ranking factor.

Danny Sullivan asked Google,   “If an article is re-tweeted or referenced much in Twitter, do you count that as a signal…??”   Google said  “Yes, we do use it as a signal. It is used as a signal in our organic and news rankings.”

So thanks to all of you who are in the synnd network!!   I appreciate all the retweets that you give me on auto-pilot

If no one syndicates your work, it might as well be invisible.

So what exactly is syndication and what’s the strategy behind using software like synnd?

Web Content Syndication

See the screenshot on the left?  That’s my article on page one for the google search term “web content syndication.”  How many choices did Google have when they put my blog on page one today?  About 6,220,000 websites and yet I’m on page one.  Why?  Well, I’m not really sure.

What I do understand is that Google’s desire is to give people what they’re searching for.  Since Google’s technology put my article high up in the search engine results pages (SERPs) it means they want their customers to find me.

Why?  Because that article has been syndicated – promoted - by a LOT of real people.  That’s the very best proof you can have to convince search engines to put you on page one for your targeted keywords.  It’s social proof.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

If enough real people syndicate your web content, search engines will deliver your work to their searchers for free.  Once upon a time, you could trick the search engines and syndicate your own work.  But now technology has advanced enough to not fall for that any more.

The best strategy now is to belong to a network of people who agree to promote each other’s web content by making making comments on your blog, by bookmarking your websites, by subscribing to your RSS feed, etc.  If enough people will do that for you, it’s the best search engine optimization (SEO) you can get.  That’s my strategy.  I belong to a content syndication network.  We all use synnd to syndicate each other’s web content and wind up pretty often on page one.

In the image above, you can see how quick I received a response.  That’s impressive.  If you already have a Facebook Page, are you getting much traffic to it?

I like what Jennifer Fong has to say about getting traffic to your facebook page.  It’s the same advice we’ve learned to follow using synnd.  Here’s Fong’s advice…

“Once you set up your Facebook Page, your next big job is to get people to come and Like your Page. How do you do that?

Here are some tips:

1. Write great, engaging content. The more interesting and engaging your content is, the more people will interact with it. The more they interact with it, the more likely it is to show up in the News Feed. The more it shows up, the more likely others will see that their friends Like your Page.

2. Add a Welcome tab. People are 47% more likely to Like a Page if it has a Welcome Tab. An effective Welcome tab tells people what the Page is about, and the benefits of Liking the Page. It also encourages people to hit the Like button. You can get a free Welcome tab at Pagemodo.

3. Occasionally tag your Page from your Profile, inviting folks who are interested in learning more about the topic you are sharing about to come and Like your Page. This lets your current friend list know you have a Page without beating them over the head with business spam. (To tag your Page, simply type the @ sign, and then begin typing the name of your Page. Once your Page pops up, select it. It will become a clickable link in your status update.)

4. Invite every customer you work with to Like your Page. This is the group you’re most interested in reaching. Let them know the benefits of liking your Page.

5. Ask your current fans to share your Page with their friends if they find your Page valuable. Do this through occasional status updates on your Page such as, “If you find the content on this Page valuable, won’t you tell your friends about this Page? Just share this link in your status update: http://facebook.com/jenfongspeaks (Fill in your Facebook URL here.) Thank you!”

6. Once you get 25 folks who Like your Page, add your Facebook Page URL to your business cards. Point it out to everyone you give your card to, and invite them to come check out your Page.

7. Comment on other Pages as your Page to drive interest in your Page.

8. Use the “Suggest to Friends” link on your Page. (Warning, this only works occasionally.)

9. Swap Likes with other Page owners. To begin the momentum, form a collective. Get a group together who will all “Like” each others’ Pages. This will help you get to your 25, so you can get a custom Facebook URL.

10. Find opportunities to share your Page on other Pages, when invited. For example, I will occasionally invite people to share their Page links on my Facebook Page. I know other Pages do this as well. Look for these opportunities, and take advantage. (But don’t share your Page if you haven’t been invited. That’s spam.)”Reference: http://www.jenfongspeaks.com

As you probably know, having a strong presence on Facebook is now critical in your overall marketing plan.

It’s Content Synnd-ication!

After You Download Synnd, Then What?

Begin a bookmarketing campaign.  Get all of us in the synnd network to bookmark your content for you.

There are over 1000 of us in the synnd content syndication network.  You decide how many bookmarks you want to any http:// address of yours.  It might be a youtube video, a pdf, a blog post or an ezinearticle.  Whatever web content you have, whatever internet real estate you want to promote – you can outsource your time and energy to us and I suggest you begin with a bookmarking campaign.

SEO 2.0

Why would we do that?  Why would we bookmark your web content, giving you tons of search engine optimization?  Because at the same time, after you download synnd, your synnd software is doing the same thing for us, on auto-pilot.

That’s what a content syndication network is.  It’s a network of people who agree to syndicate each others web content.  Using synnd is a way for all of us to leverage our time.  It is a way for you to outsource almost ALL of your social media marketing, not just bookmarking.

We all have to have our content put into syndication somehow.  Otherwise, targeted internet traffic will never find us.  In order to gain internet traffic, one of the most powerful sources of it is search engine optimization (SEO) of your content.  Social media syndication is fast becoming your best source of SEO.

Social media optimization of your content is actually second generation search engine optimization (SEO).  It’s SEO 2.0 and it’s THE best way right now to get search engine attention and real people traffic to your content.  If you don’t join us at synnd, you will need to join a content syndication network somewhere because syndicating your own content doesn’t work that well anymore.  You need social proof that your work is good.  Watch this short video then give Synnd-Lite a try.

I don’t have to crack the social media code on my own in order to get highly targeted traffic to a blog post that then in turn connects to my sales funnel and lead capture pages.  The creators of Synnd cracked the code so that I don’t have to.  If you have heard about synnd but aren’t sure the benefits are what you’re looking for, take time to review them here in a nutshell:

• Higher search engine rankings
• Higher visibility – because there are almost 1000 of us using synnd now, that means that 14,000+ references to EACH piece of your content is sent throughout the social web on auto-pilot.  That’s a ton of social buzz for every one of your videos, every blog post, every article, etc.
• Soooo, you get higher exposure in the social networks to rise above the noise
• If your web content is good, synnd initiates the viral spread of content by injecting it in the most popular social networks.

And most importantly, the benefits of social buzz created by synnd gives me more time to spend on growing my business instead of working endlessly to market it.  In other words, you outsource the social media marketing to us, those of us who use synnd.  It’s the power having partners to do content syndication of your work.  I don’t do the work of marketing for you but the software that I have on my computer called synnd does, along with 100′s of other people who have synnd on their computers.

It’s quite phenomenal, really.  I know it sounds like hype but it’s truly that good.  It’s great, actually! Click either banner. Watch the video and get more info sooner than later.

Social media marketing is actually a waste of time if it doesn’t create traffic, leads and sales for your business.  Understanding how social media works is a science in itself.  To be successful as a social media marketer requires social media science research.  If that’s not what you do as a living, why not outsource your social media marketing like I do.

The reason it’s well worth the money to outsource my marketing is because it pays off in time and money.  I’d rather be creating web content that generates leads and sales than to be working really hard inside Twitter, Facebook and Digg as an amateur trying to do social media marketing.

Watch this 2 minute video that explains why I am outsourcing almost all of my social media marketing…

Social media marketing was once considered just a fad not too long ago by marketing professionals all over the world.  Now, if corporations do not have a Facebook page and Twitter account, it’s the exception, not the rule.

In my super market recently the recurring announcement overhead wasn’t the chicken breasts now on sale for the low price of whatever.  No – the repeated announcement was various coupons I could get by visiting Reaser’s Facebook page.

Reading, Writing and Web-metic

So what will be “routine” social media marketing of next year?  I would bet that by the summer of 2011, best practice will be totally different than now.

And it’s way too mind boggling to think of what social media marketing will be like in 2015.  What will the kids who are 10 now know about the web when they are 15?  In 5 years, will pre-school be teaching reading, writing and web-metic?

Social Media Marketing Is Now Called Social Buzz For Short

If your company or your business on the web does not have enough “social buzz” to give you clout with the search engines, then you are behind.  It means you need to ramp up social media marketing to the extent that real people bookmark your content, they make comments on your blog and they link to your website from theirs.  That’s social buzz and what it does is speak louder to search engines than technical SEO – way louder.

Social Media Optimization (SMO) Or SEO 2.0 (Second Generation SEO)

In other words, with enough social buzz going on about your business, your web content becomes an authority site in Google’s eyes faster because of social media optimization.

I know you think I’m going to say “rockin’ affiliate marketing!”  Well, that’s not it.  Very important though and I will share with you how to add more rock to your marketing in just a minute.

Charles Heflin’s Three E’s

This is very important too, but it’s not THE Number One SECRET to Online Success.  Charles Heflin’s three E’s are:

• Entertaining content
• Enlightening content
• Educational content

You have to have the 3 E’s all through your affiliate marketing content.   Just be yourself and you won’t be boring.  Not everyone will like you but that’s much better than being a bore.

The 3 E’s  are YOU, what Mike Dillard calls YOU, Inc. – but it’s not the #1 secret to making money online.  It is however the very best way to get targeted leads and therefore, sales!  Because as you know, we are all more likely to buy from people we know, like and trust.

Affiliate Marketing That Rocks!

Even though affiliate marketing that rocks isn’t the #1 secret to online success either, I do have a little gift for you on “How to Add More Rock!” to your marketing.  It has to do with creating rockin’ ads inside Facebook, of all places!

Email Marketing

The money’s in the list!  That’s true.  But it still isn’t the number 1 secret to making money online.  It’s a critical factor but you can make money with a very small list if your leads are super-targeted and you content rocks.

I use iContact.com as my email marketing vehicle.  The more you email great three E content to your readers, the more sales when you make an offer.  And the more you automate those emails using auto-responders to leverage your time, the quicker you can get back to building your online business.  Marketing should not be how you spend all your time.  Building your business should take up more time than marketing does.

THE GOAL of course is to eventually have an online business that virtually runs on autopilot most of the time. (pun intended

The SECRET

The actual secret to making money online is waaay more simple than learning how to generate leads and sales AND it’s waaay easier than affiliate marketing, email marketing, social media marketing, video marketing, etc.

But you will have to click the banner below to find out what it is.

So do that now and I’ll see you on the other side.
