Concepts
Maybe because of my hearing impairness or perhaps my
personality but MANY of my concepts seems to be
difficult to be understand by other people while the
fact that it's based on different internet concepts
don't make it much easier.
Co-operation
Many of my concepts are based on co-operation but yet
it seems for me that it's an outdated term even while
it's better, easier, cheaper and more beneficial than to
struggle all-alone.
Above link deal mainly with the town portals but
there are also many other co-operational opportunities
available.
With the www.christmas-gifts.co.za
website for example the idea is simple that a group of
say 10 business owners each get a category on the
website and then contribute money to advertise the
website.
The combined money and marketing of 10 businesses can
reach far wider than if they are on their own while the
combined products, search engine optimization and
cross-linking with 100 + other websites are also far
more powerful.
News
Portals
The news portal website and some of the links is a
bit outdated but together with www.internet-news-group.co.za
it will gives you a good overview of the massive
potential of a Open Source
Marketing concept.
Most of the expensive advertising fees are pocketed
by the big media guys simple because they have
journalists to write articles, news and information for
publishing.
Instead of that whole aim of everything that I do is
to let people and business owners advertise for free
provided that it's in the form of writen content, that
is by the way anyway far more effective than plain
banner ads.
100, 1000 or 10 000 business owners that regularly
contribute articles, news and information (while at the
same time promote their business with links
(signatures) under such content) have the ability
to generate far, far more traffic than content writen by
a handful of journalists.
Marketing instead of Income
With commercial advertisers for example the
"income" is ploughed 100% back into further
marketing but very few people understand the reasoning
about that.
From my perspective I don't see or regard it as
"income" but as FREE marketing money that can
be used to draw more visitors, both to the benefit of
advertisers and my own benefit because I make my money
not with advertising, but with other income sources such
as web hosting.
The more income from commercial advertisers ploughed
back into further marketing, the more visitors and the
more visitors, the more advertisers and the stronger the
marketing group where I advertise my own services
(hosting) for free.
There are several such marketing above everything
else concepts but as long as people are skeptical about
it because they simple don't understand it I will always
struggle to get this HUGE snowball marketing concept over
the hill all alone. |
