YouTube traffic is great. If you know what you`re doing, you can literally get thousands of visitors to your pages daily.

I`ve tried just to add one video without some “tactics” – it got just a few views per month. While doing the tags, description, video replies and such things, drives massive amounts daily.

Hey Yaro,

Twitter is definitely a growing tool that helps in building the network full of people of you same niche and you can spread the message to all of them in one go. The great number of followers helps greatly in getting huge traffic. I use it extensively for my blog.

Thanks Yaro for this beautiful podcast.

Save your money, the program is worthless. Look at the click through rates of her students tweets on twitter. Even the tweet she sent of a video she did, only got 59 views (out of 45,000+ followers…its all a numbers game to look popular). When questioned about the less then adequate stats, not only did she not approve a reasonable question, but immediately took down the video.

In her own webinar (and I have copies from people who complained about her course. She states it would be best to use a video streaming service (like amazon ez3) to hide the fact that you may not get many views. The webinar followed my comment. So with full disclosure, she deliberately took down the video, and misinformed her “students”.

Back in May 2007, I spoke with her when she claimed to have done “6 figures” on Ebay in less then one year (when questioned about her userid, she not only wouldn’t give it out, but had the nerve to hang up, claiming she doesn’t deal with skeptics), and now she claims she started selling on Ebay in April ’07. She has been outed on numerous lies, like making 6 figures investing in real estate “online”.

Her followers (using “hollywood” jargin) are nothing more then stand ins, to make her look like a guru, but really she is just selling overpriced training and her metrics are fundamentally flawed (as is her reality…of course…law of attraction).

Yaro and Giddeon,

I bought Maria’s program and am not able to access it. The delivery system is truly not the best and I’ve sent a lot of tickets for support and have heard nothing.

I got the $895 program, but that’s a lot of money for me still … so I’d like to know someone will get back to me soon.

Has anyone else had issues?

I don´t think social media has reached it´s peak, there´s lots of sites coming up and the older ones won´t go anywhere because of the massive usage they have.

The sites themselves might always reach their peak sometime, but as the whole it all adds up on social media.

If now it is essential to have Facebook and Twitter working for you, I can see that next year at this time we have one or two sites more with such a prestige besides them.

Using twitter has help us with generating leads for our services, We’re constantly looking for ways to use this platform. As I said we have had some luck, but at the moment there isn’t real true data for our industry yet..

Can’t state enough how important the entrepreneurial spirit is.

Curious if anyone has caught this book yet? “The Richest Man in Town” by W Randall Jones. I’ve read half of it so far and let me tell you it is well worth it. Would like to hear what everyone else thought of it?

Hi Guys,

Thanks so much for a wonderfully inspiring interview with Maria. I’ve been following this blog for some time, and only recently ‘discovered’ Maria.

I am completely pumped because I am so close to launching my latest service (a membership site training course) and this site, along with the podcast from Maria, continues to be the motivation I need.

Well done, and thanks!

-Joshua

She is right social media is all the rage now and everyone is jumping on the bandwagon. I think it’s really important to educate yourself on the topic of social networking etc. It’s important to get in on it now, asap. Its great that she is teaching others these valuable facts and tips. Her shoes are awesome btw.

Till then,

Jean

The power of social media is a phenomenon – this article is pertinent for all business owners who have or are exploring the option of marketing their services through Facebook, MySpace, or Twitter. Living in Oregon, I was astonished to see the effect Twitter had on Dave Chappelle’s appearance in Portland, Oregon. One Twitter post ended up reaching thousands of individuals in the Portland metropolitan area who were able to see his performance free of cost. He only expected 200 to show. This only further demonstrates the massive effect Twitter has on viral loops and user relationships. Small businesses, however, should be warned of the overwhelming response that these sites can generate if one is not careful. Great article!

Kind Regards,

This was a great interview. It confirmed a lot of what I’ve been trying to tell one of my business partners (to no avail, unfortunately). To be honest, though, I found her video not so compelling. She’s obviously very successful at what she does, but in the video she goes on too much about her backstory. OK, we get it already, before online success came your way your life was miserable, so move on! Sorry, I’m impatient like that.

One of the many things I like about Gideon and Yaro’s approach is that they don’t beat about the bush and get to the point quickly. They succinctly sum up the backstory and get to the beef right away. This shows not only skill at telling their story but shows respect for the reader’s time.

Thanks Gideon, Yaro and Maria. I really enjoyed listening to your comments about Twitter, Facebook and YouTube. I found your comments about doing one thing well and making it a success most interesting. You have come on a very fast journey in 2 years.

Maria Andros is a web 2.0 marketer. A very popular one at that. I believe she is from Canada. I’m not sure if we are signing up people in Canada at this time. If she was considering joining us, I’d be more than happy to show her the ropes.

I had listened to the audio recording, easy simple steps to follow for a beginner like me, and I’m gonna head up for the social media traffic blueprint.
I hope I can catch up the schedule Yaro, thank you for share with us.
I just found your website from google. I think it’s a kind of new publishing your blog with podcast so visitors don’t really need to read entire post
