Buzz Marketing
Buzz Marketing, (also known as social marketing) includes
blogs
community sites (i.e., MySpace, Facebook), RSS feeds, social bookmarking, social news sites, Web 2.0 , and video (YouTube). These are just a few of the methods used and it all falls under the label of Web 2.0. If you’re new to internet marketing, these methods may seem overwhelming to try to learn but it’s a critical component to your online success. It’s the one surefire way of getting traffic to your site within your
chosen niche market
as fast as possible, especially if it’s one of the more competitive ones like internet marketing, health, fitness, etc.

However, if you’re niche is small, it won’t take you long to get to the top of the search engine heap using buzz marketing. Let’s take the example of the cornhole niche. Since there aren’t that many cornhole players out there, your site can be the "authority site" if you provide good information and resources. Even though it’s a small niche, cornhole players are known to spend money on games and accessories so don’t discount the value of a small niche. If there are 1000 cornhole players out there and your site is the one everyone knows about, then all those 1000 players will be coming to you to get what they need to play cornhole!
How It Works
The basic idea behind buzz or social marketing is to build online "buzz" about your site so that search engine spiders will visit and index it.
Your first step is to have a site blog. By using the above-mentioned techniques, your blog content (let’s assume it’s good and worthy of notice) gets noticed by other bloggers within your niche. The more your blog gets noticed, the higher your ranking on the search engines.
You'll achieve success when any search engine query for a keyword in your niche results in your site being at the top of the list!
Buzz marketing gets you to the top of the search engines. Providing good content makes you stay there!
Free Ebook about Social Media Marketing
Recently I came across a
free ebook about Social Marketing
that is an excellent resource. I was surprised to see how much useful information the author has included about how to set up a blog, Web 2.0, increasing traffic to your site, time-saving tips and more. And he didn't charge me a dime for it! Most free eBooks are very skimpy on useful information. They usually are a "teaser" for the paid eBook they want you to buy. But this one is an exception. I've learned a lot from reading it and I saw results just days after I started using these helpful tips.
