After about 7 months online, the video has almost 5000 views and has developed a little bit of traffic back to my site. Great. It took me 10 mins to make it, another 10 to edit and compile the video, and another 10 to upload it, do keyword research, and type the headline/description. So a half an hour of work that resulted in some leads to my business. Good stuff…

But this below video has gotten over 4,000 views in the last 2 or 3 days… Why? Timing…

It’s the Olympics and the big thing going on right now is Michael Phelps gold medal wins and world record breaking performances…

So what did I do? I created a tribute to him, did a voiceover on some pictures of Phelps, and added a link to my site.

Pretty sweet, huh?

Think to yourself, “what’s going on that’s very BIG… controversial, inspiring, whatever…” and then put up a video w/ your commentary about it… Share it with friends, associates, and your email lists… The more views, high ratings, and comments the better.

So, I decided to market my new self development website by networking with like-minded people on myspace. Unfortunately, not all of them were like-minded. After over 1200 friends added to my profile and alot of great response… my account was flagged and deleted…

Here’s the exact message I sent to my friend-requests:

subject: Just Sharing a little positivity…

body:

Hey, I’m connecting with people on myspace to help spread some positivity…

The world can be a bit negative and I’m working to help spread the word …. that everyone can be a positive person with the right encouragement and inspriration.

You’re a powerful person and you have talents and abilities that you still don’t even know about!

Share the love and spread the word about empowerment and positivity by getting on my friends list and telling others about it!

Thanks for your support,
Your Friend,
Adam Holland

Is this really a threatening message that pissed some miserable person off so much they’d accuse me of spamming? Hmmm…  But, either way, I got NO notice from Myspace..

Damn you, Tom! You’re not my friend anymore (enter childish whine here…) hehe..
