Social Networking Becoming Hotter Than Porn!

That’s right. The increasing number of web users are tuning into various niche-relevant social networks instead of using Google to tap into dirty pages on the ‘net.

But there’s a little catch.

While social networking site traffic is on the rise, a portion of those members are using the social networks for the sexual purposes or online match-making (not the same thing, but you know what I mean).

The good news is, social networks are being harnessed by everyone – from celebrities to politicians, from the ‘tween to the Baby Boomer. Even anti-social people are creating social networks about how much they hate social networking!

There’s a Delete Your MySpace Account network, an Enemybook (anti-friends) site, and more. You can even rent a friend from FakeYourSpace.com if you’re hard up to build a list of contacts in the web 2.0 arena.

Monks are using YouTube to recruit other monks.

Musicians are finding backup singers on social networks.

If you’re not on or creating a social network, you’re out of the loop.

Right now I use Ning for my Building an eBook Empire community (it’s closed to buyers only, sorry).

I use Squidoo for social marketing and as my soapbox for issues I find important.

I use Hub Pages for the same thing.

Which social networks do you see pulling you in or do you wish they had?

Do You Inhale the Web?

I read about this on the Squidblog and it’s really neat! It’s called addictomatic and apparently, it grabs everything new about a topic and displays it for you all on one page from a variety of authority sites.

So for instance, this is what it shows you when you type in web 2.0:

http://addictomatic.com/topic/web+2.0

Neat, huh?

Oh! Maybe I’ll addictomatic my name. lol

Will Traffic Surge or Be Sorry?

With Halloween upon me, I began building Squidoo lenses the fast and furious way. Traffic built and built, culminating with the 70 or so Christmas lenses I built which did very well for me on Squidoo.

Nut now that shopping’s done, I wonder how my lenses will fare in traffic. The Halo lenses, which my son sold, saw an increase before Christmas, but have since died down. I expect as kids open their gifts and get into their new Halo games, wanting to know the tips and tricks to master the game, it’ll grow more.

I’m also experimenting with Hub Pages now as I build my eBook on that topic. Want to get lots of real case studies on it before I release anything. So how’s your web 2.0 traffic? Growing or Going South?

BlogRush - Using the Viral Tools of Web 2.0

Got my email like everyone else from John Reese about Income.com’s new BlogRush tool. As you can see when you scroll down my blog on the left side, I have a BlogRush widget on there. It promotes other people’s blogs. My own blog will be promoted on other blogs, too.

I like this free traffic exchange. I signed up under Lance Kading when he sent me the link. Even though I already had a direct link from Income.com, I wanted to give someone else the chance to build their traffic by me signing up under them. So now, if you follow this link: http://www.tiffanydow.com/blogrush.html and sign up under me (for free), both Lance and I will benefit from YOUR traffic.

And whoever signs up under you helps you get traffic.

Kind of like free MLM in the the web 2.0 world. I like it. You gain credits for exposure. We’ll see how it goes, and although it’s Javascript, I’m hoping Squidoo somehow finds a way to put it into lenses for us.
