Daily CRUSHER Monster Traffic Strategy

May 20th, 2010

I recently saw one of my Tribe members post something in Skype to my Tribe group (We are called TribeOne), that made me think of something. Imagine that! She said, “Is there anyway that people can put their latest post in here so we know what and when to syndicate?” I certainly know it’s a pain. Where is the master list of everything that needs to be syndicated? I’ve thought of a solution that can help.

It will save you a TON of time! I mean it. But first you have to set it up first. The solution exists using a site called RSSMix.com

This site will allow you to aggregate several feeds into one. Why several feeds? Well not all of our content should be created only for our blogs. Branching out to Ezine articles, Hub Pages, Squidoo, Yourtube, and others can reap a huge return in regards to SEO for your main blog site. See my blog post called “Multi-Purpose Your Content” that can be found at: http://www.chriskilber.com/multi-purpose-your-content/

So collect the feeds from the places you now have content that you want to have others syndicate. Even if you have just one, your blog, still do this. It will allow you to add to it later once you start branching out.

I have two videos that I threw together that outlines the concept. It shows how I created a link (HTML or XML) that shows in chronological order, newest to oldest, your content regardless of where you created it, as long as it’s a part of your master feed.

Watch these in succession and then read on…

We then can make everyone’s content one simple click away. Here’s and example of mine: http://www.rssmix.com/u/997020/

Even beyond that, Here’s where we can really CRUSH IT! How about providing that feed to over 300 RSS and Site submission sites? It would plaster your content all over the net. It may require your tribe buying some submission software but really split between you all should be minimal.

And EVEN more CRUSHING…

How about feeding the feeds to your ping.fm account via twitter feed? Clicking your Onlywire button for everything you find on it.

Sorry NOT DONE YET… Go back and get all of your tribe members XML Feed links, One master each, and create one master RSS Feed for that. Feed that to the 300 RSS and Submission sites, to each one of your Ping.fm accounts. Then take the feeds out of each social media site where you can find an RSS feed and submit those.

If I can receive over 1/2 million links to my blog, imagine what will happen when you also get 6-10 others doing the same thing…

Enjoy CRUSHERS!!!

Discover How To Create Irresistible and Tempting Titles

September 25th, 2009

I had a few questions about titles this weekend. I’ll bring this old post out front and center once again in case you missed it.

What’s in a title?
How you title things make a tremendous impact on whether people will read or consider reading content. In this context, content is in the form of emails, blog posts, tweets, Ezine articles, and other forms of communication that you want others to read. In all cases the main goal is to get people to open, click, or otherwise save or bookmark for reading later. Let’s examine some of the forms of communication.

Email Subjects
The title is contained as what in email parlance as the subject. Subjects are treated a little bit differently based on who the email is coming from. The difference is based on one thing. That is trust. If the email is coming from someone they trust, friends and family for sure, they will open. But there is also information that was requested and comes in the form of newsletters, RSS feeds, and other aggregations of information. If someone doesn’t recognize the senders name they are typically going to look at the subject and make a determination as to what they are going to do. What the subject contains will determine the reader’s next actions. If it’s from you, you want to have as an inviting subject as possible.

Blog Post Titles
A blog post title works in the same way as a subject line in an email. Your objective is to get people to read your post. Hopefully, when your blog post is syndicated throughout the Internet via Twitter tweets, Facebook notes, blog backlinks, email bodies, and other forms of electronic communication it will compel people to open and read it. Another factor that has to be considered in blog post titles is the SEO factor. Your title should both contain a keyword or two and also be relevant to the content that is contained in it. If you have a title about cars, your content better not be about plants. I’ll talk about some of the psychological factors below.

Ezine Articles
Titles should work the same way as blog post titles but should probably have more of an emphasis on keywords than actions or questions contained in the title. Most people simply do not search Ezines. They use Google and Google recommends the Ezine articles to them. The more SEO friendly the title, the better the ranking and higher it’s possibility to be towards the top of the search. I also recommend your resource box contain a link to your blog.

Twitter Tweets
Now tweets per se don’t have the concept of a title but it should be contained some where in the 140 characters. Having important attention grabbing phrases that are contained in the actual article with the title in your tweets will help people feel compelled to click them and follow the link over to the source. Using certain psychological keywords will raise the probability of the tweet being opened. They will grab the attention of the readers.

In all these examples, if you understand underlying psychological impulses and urges you can use them to your advantage. So if we ask the question, what do people want?, what do people respond to?, what do people have an interest in?, and are people interested in?, this should provide us with some clues to help formulate a title. Here are some different types of titles that you should strive for?

Types of Titles

Tell them something true about them and then tell them to take action.
Create compelling curiosity.
Make claims that are almost unbelievable. (Be able to back them up)
Create something of high interest to target direct interests.
Use humor. If you can make them laugh they will click.
Inspire and motivate them. If they feel good about themselves and they will act.
Make them mysterious. People like mysteries.
Appeal to their logic. Restate something they believe strongly.

So these are the categories or types of possible titles or subjects that can be used. Now that we know what it is we need to formulate what words can we use that will compel people to act. We need to use words that influence, persuade, and motivate people to act, (click, read, signup, etc…). This can be accomplished by using words that can help people image something. They are words that describe things in ways that make them bigger than life. They are words that evoke emotion. Here are some words that will practically compel people to their natural predispositions to investigate things that are curious, humorous, mysterious, logical, interesting, and bold. This of course is not an exhaustible list. They contain:

Words to Use

irresistible	untold	boggle	double
triple	quadruple	unstoppable	potent
banned	phenomenal	willing	calculated
psychological	seduce	spell binding	unable
magnet	effortless	insatiable	secret
record-breaking	amazing	cutting edge	incalculable
absolute	thrilled	legendary	boost
enhance	improve	benefits	enjoy
reduce	release	loosen	combat
discover	achieve	counter	increase
how-to	discover	master	create
generate	optimize	enliven	improve

refine	upgrade	align	balance
cheerful	enthusiastic	inclined	zealous
attract	allure	induce	invite
tempting	follow	substitute	uncomplicated
simple	agile	knowing	powerful
able	clever	straightforward	intricate

Conclusion

The list could go on and on. Using these words in your titles and subjects along with a keyword will work wonders for your traffic. Take the time to craft titles that will draw people into your world, get them to click it, and then read it. Spend more time on this aspect of your writing and you will be guaranteed to see results.

Content Is King – Learn What To Write About

July 6th, 2009

I know a lot of people out there are getting online to somehow start making some money because they have aspirations of firing their boss, staying at home to raise their own kids, supplementing their incomes or retirements, and to nurture their entrepreneurial spit that hides in each and everyone one of them. If they’ve done their due-diligence they should know there’s a lot more than meets the eye and have partnered up or found someone to emulate to teach them the ropes. Even then, the bottom line on how successful anyone is going to be in this industry is how much traffic they can generate and how they convert that traffic into sales.

I just noticed that what I’m about to say rhymes but maybe it will help to remember. That is “The number ONE thing, is that CONTENT is king”. I heard it said just last week by an online millionaire. Content for me means, blog posts, ezine articles, videos, reviews about others content, and comments on others content. I know a large part of the landscape in social media is Twitter, but it may be possible to convey some content, but 140 words won’t cut it in my book. Twitter is used as the communication channel to tell, educate, and inform others about content that is educational, interesting, and teaches something. It is merely the communication channel.

Content does not have to be eloquent prose. It simply has to state some facts, why you agree with or not, why you think it’s important, and what YOUR perspective about them. The exact same topic should be different than what others write because it will be from YOUR perspective. If you’ve discovered something that really helped you, write about it. You have a different perspectives and the people who read your material will appreciate it because they may be just learning, just like you are. As we speak there are tens of thousands of people a day coming on to the internet to find their fortune. You can be their guide.

So another way I come up with content. Whatever your niche is going to be, come up with 75-100 keywords about it. Keywords are going to be your nouns and verbs of the nomenclature of your niche. As an example I’ll use a niche called marketing. Here are ten keywords that would be expected to find for this niche. (affiliate, article. auto responder, back link, banner, blog, business model, central hub, and content). So with those 10 words mathematically I could write about 90+ combination of those keywords. Here are about 10 titles you could use from those 10. Attracting Affiliates With Back links. Do I need An Autoresponder For Affiliate Marketing? Using Back links In Your Article Marketing. Can Blogging Attract Affiliates For You? What Kind of Banner To Use On Your Blog. Using Keywords On Your Blog. Using Keywords In Your Article Marketing. The Key to Your Business Model – A Central Hub How To Write Blog Content.

So there I came up with 10. You get the idea. There is no reason you can’t come up with 75+ keywords for your niche. Think them through. Go to ezinearticles.com and pick the 10 most read articles in your niche and look for them there. Use a thesaurus and find them. Then think of as many combination of key words as possible. An advantage to using multiple keywords in a title is Google will rank them higher. Then sit down and write. Step away when your done. Reread it and check for grammatical errors then post it. Your done. I did this one in about 20 minutes. Went down an had a drink of water and chatted with my daughter, came up to my office and proofed it. There is no reason not to have content. Now have at it! Content is king. If you found this useful consider clicking the Tweet and Face book buttons next to the title.
