It’s been a few months since the last show but I have been itching to do a podcast and Mike Filsaime’s report, The Death of Internet Marketing (aff), stirred a lot of thoughts in my mind, which I decided to brain-dump into a solo podcast episode for all to enjoy.

A warning – this is a serious ramble and I cover a lot of topics (see the show notes below for details) but it’s very current and I suspect if you are at all interested in Internet marketing or online business, as an industry and as a participant, you will enjoy this podcast.

Let me know what you think in the comments!

Show Notes

I review many of the things discussed in the Death of Internet Marketing report by Mike Filsaime
I mention Butterfly Marketing several times
Rich Schefren and his reports, The Internet Business Manifesto, The Missing Chapter and Final Chapter all get a mention.
My upcoming site, Blog Traffic School, is in there too.
I talk about my fellow bloggers, Steve Pavlina and Brian Clark.
Social media is included, with sites like Technorati, Del.icio.us, Digg and YouTube featuring in comparison to old-school counterparts like Ebaumsworld.
It’s also worth mentioning Product Launch Formula (aff) since much of the discussion centers around the state of Internet marketing and the product launch phenomenon.

I agree yaro, if you love underwater basket weaving you can create a site and a 1st class course on the best undiscovered methods, but if no one is buying theres no business. Just an eccentric with a lot of time on his hands.

I liked it …. I think! Passion is passion. You need passion to stay enthusiastic with the tedious tasks, thats for sure.

I’ve always felt that it was very much an over-hyped report, but then again, much of what Mike does is quite over-hyped.

I feel that Internet Marketing is as strong as it ever was. Just search on google for you relevant niche and check the amount of competitors. It’s not just basic SEO that’s going to get you onto the first page.

I’m not convinced that passion is sufficient to keep you motivated doing the tedious stuff. The only thing that works for me is to outsource it,

What concerns most folks is exposure and traffic. All their actions are paced for that objective.

In my opinion, passion is one of the basics for a successfull business.
It could get very hard, to convience anybody of your idea, when you dont have the passion & strength.
