In last post i talked about twitter tools that people are using, see it here .

Over these few days, i learned about a few more cool tools, so i would better make a new post.

twitterless (keep track of your followers)

tweetvalue (see how much your twitter account is worth)

tweetstats (see the twitter stats, like how frequent you’re using, which people you’re talking with most, the time you’re using twitter, number of post on a monthly basis, etc)

twitterfeed (blogs automatically for you on your twitter account, it feeds from your own blog post)

Okay, just want to share this few sites which is nice to know.

Now, you can build a lot of traffic from twitter alone, and here’s how you do it.

1. Build followers in your market, by posting, reading and answering people tweets.

2. Regularly adding people to your twitter profile.

3. Post relevant and useful content for people, and link it back to your blog, and have a opt-in somewhere on your blog. People will read your post if you provide useful content , nobody like to waste time seeing useless information.

So go and use twitter now, do also friend me at http://www.twitter.com/thomasukm

Hey, it is a sunny Saturday here.

And, i am truly amazed at how a 6 year old attracted almost 3,500 visitors per month to his "toys" blog with just post with picture of his favorite toys, "Ben 10". This goes to show that internet business can be just as simple and need not be very complicated.

And one big tip that i learned is "Do stuff that you like".

This is a blog post done by my good friend Ewen Chia about his 6 year old son, Clayden.

You can see the original update via Ewen’s blog at http://www.internetwealth.com/training

Well, i did a simple study and found out how the 3,500 monthly visitors come about.

His post about "Ben 10 Toys" hit on number 1 spot at the images search result, out of almost a million images. The exposure is really huge! Think of how you can leverage the images to rank high on SEO.

Next, Google Images Results also being indexed in the search results for the keyword "Ben 10 Toys", which in this case is ranked at number 4, again another huge exposure.

Well this simple case study really inspired me a lot! And i hope you will benefit from this.

Talk soon,

Hey,

Just to drop you a quick note that i have decided to upgrade my blog to the latest version, it’s on 2.6.3 now! Phew! Spent about an hour plus doing this…luckily i learned some wordpress knowledge sometime back, it’s relatively more technical than the blogger platform.

I really like the newer version, with more sneaky interface::)

And, i also changed the whole theme and look, and hope you will agree with me that this is a better looking one!

If you are considering getting a new theme, this is where I got my theme from.

What else did i do?

I have also wrote a special report on "7 Hidden Adwords PPC Tactics " to encourage you to sign up to my newsletter. You should do so now at the top right corner, this is a completely NEW report that is fresh from the oven, it is one of the BEST report that i have even released, but yours FREE, just put in your name and email address and i will let you download it.

I have decided to go into PPC as my main traffic source about one year ago, and since then i have learned a great deal of knowledge from the main PPC platforms including Google Adwords, Yahoo Search Marketing and MSN Adcenter. This report will help you get started correctly with your Adwords PPC campaigns.

This report will help you outsmart your competitor significantly!

Thomas

Hope you are having a nice weekend! Over here in Singapore, we will have a little long weekend since Monday is a holiday, and many people has taken this opportunity to drive up to the north, to Malaysia.

Today i will share what i know about blogging.

Since i launched this blog, sometime i do not know what to write…and i believe many people would face this “problem” sometime.

So, Here’s what i learned, although i am not any blogging expert.

I will show you 3 places where i find RED HOT ideas for your blog, no matter what topic you are in.

1. Read 2 to 3 blogs related to your topic and get a good idea of what to write. You can do a search in Google and you should be able to find them.

2. Read forum in your market. Forum is a place where you can find real people looking for solutions, write a post on that and link that in the forum, free traffic.

Hint: You will know what topics are popular by looking at the popularity of the threads. easy.

3.  Go to Google News and type in your topic and boom you have plenty of ideas!

Blogging where can you find red hot ideas for your blog

Few days ago I talked about using Twitter in your online business…

Since I started using Twitter just week ago, I start to realize the powerful feature this social tool is offering. What it does is, you can get connected to the key people in your industry at your fingertips; Of course you got to find the correct people to connect with, and usually these people have a relatively large number of people / fans following them on twitter.

Just setup an account and start following your industry expert and learn about what they do.

The cool things about this stuff is that, when the expert shares info among the expert, you get to chip in and see those information.

Enjoy!

Have you been doing something today to continuing building up your internet business??

It is definitely a tough question!

Because I know, Internet business get a lot of distraction, here and there, everywhere.

I would just discuss one example today. I bet you must be on many “Guru” mailing list…and you are getting daily emails from them!

Hey, i know this, because I have been doing that!

No..don’t get me wrong, not that I’m not reading their emails, it is always good to know what is happening online and normally most of the “gurus” will be talking about it at the fastest  possible time.

The problem is…if you start reading their emails and their website / blog / videos…or anything. One after another, you will be left with no time to do your own thing.

In fact, you don’t need to know everything to start making money online, i guess even if you take a free ebook talking about PPC, you can still make money if you go and do it.

Yeah! the key here is “Do IT”.

So, what i am doing nowadays to keep my mind focus is to do my own thing first, then read the emails i am interested in.

Make sense right? Mind your own business first, not others!

I bet you must have tons of ebooks / videos / courses lying around your computer, desks or anything?? Stick to one of the best one, and keep doing it. Believe me, you will get results.

Let me know what you think.

until next time,

Thomas
