Traffics Little Helpers!

December 15th, 2008  Posted at   Uncategorized

Hello there,

I promised I would tell you about a couple of products that I have used, both of which are pretty good. These are products that are great for getting traffic to your site, using video.

The first one is a site called Hey,Spread! (www.heyspread.com). At Hey,Spread! you can upload your videos and they will post them to up 17 different video websites. You need to register with them first, but you can do that easily at the Hey,Spread site.

This site isn’t free, but its really not hugely expensive at 3cents per video per site. So if you upload one video to all 17 sites it will cost a fairly reasonable 51 cents. You can prepay through PayPal and very quickly have your videos uploaded all over!

Hey,spread will also let you see how your traffic has been for the videos you have uploaded, which is 21cents. It’s a great site for when you are starting out because it means your videos are on lots of different sites, all generating organic traffic for your site, and the cost is easily controllable, you do what you can afford.

The big brother to Hey,Spread is a formidable, powerful traffic provider called Traffic Geyser. Now, Internet Marketing Supremo, Frank Kern refers to this as “A Black Box That Prints Money” and I can see his point. It does so much!

If you have a video, it will send out your video to video sites like YouTube and others, it will link up to podcasts and RSS feeds; it will basically spread your video over 35 different places, far and wide!

If you haven’t made a video – fear not! Because not only does Traffic Geyser have a Slideshow Creator which will help you make a slideshow and then turn it into a video for you; also it has a huge amount of tutorial videos to walk you step by step through the whole process. If that isn’t enough, there is a forum where helpful people give advice to newer clients. There is also a very motivating Success Stories section on the forum, with everyone saying how they got to page one of Google (often against hundreds of thousands of entries).

Now, as you can imagine, this is somewhat more expensive than Hey,Spread!

BUT……I went on and was offered the Platinum Package – when I said no thank you I was offered the Gold Package to try for 30 days, for $1! After which its $99 per month. Well, I thought, it could be worth a try. To be honest I haven’t used it as much as I would have liked to because I have been very busy with www.listbuildingwithaj.com and this blog, but I think it could be great in the right hands.

So there you are, in my opinion, both worth a look!

Best wishes,

Ruth

    If you visit my blog I have added a plug in that allows me to show videos in the side bar at the right size and I found it here: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/video-widget/

    Hope it helps.. I think the submit box might be throwing out your newsletter, try using fewer words!

    Well done on your new theme and if you need ANY help let me know we can even get together on gtalk if you like and I can talk you through a few things!
