Leadership is a very pervasive subject that touches on all parts of our lives, and that includes the Internet a phenomenon that some people are far more involved in than others. Are you one of those people who spend a good 4 5 hours on the Internet everyday? Ever wondered how you could stop being just a visitor and create your own Internet presence and start becoming a true Internet leader? Well I have a few leadership styles and ideas that will hopefully inspire you to stretch out and ambitious set out to conquer the world wide web.

1. Search Engine Optimization.

The leadership style that many webmasters want to achieve is DOMINANCE. By dominance, I mean completing beating the competition. There are few better ways to be seen to rank above the competition than in the SERPS. SERP stands for Search Engine Result Positions. If your website appears #1 for a common search term not only will your site receive a lot of traffic, but it will also gain credibility too as a result of this leadership technique.

SEO or search engine optimization is a surging industry. Google ranks websites by over 100 factors of varying importance. Some factors relate to the coding and the content of the page itself, and others relate to who links to the page. This is by far the most important factor, and hence if you want to become a leader on the Internet you need to get lots of website to link to you!

2. Technorati Authority.

Technorati authority is Technorati.com s measure of how popular your blog is. It’s a statistic often worn as a badge of honor on many of the top blogs of the world. Top 10, Top 100 or even Top 1000, 10,000 can be something to be proud of, depending on the category. Technorati authority is hard to manipulate, and it s usually your content and site design that will win you points in this area of leadership on the Internet.

3. Household name.

You can exert your leadership style on the Internet by becoming a household name. It really is cheaper than you think. To become a household name on the Internet, you can run adverts on large social networking websites for a surprisingly low cost. Ask your friends about how annoying certain pesky adverts for online dating and similar companies are, and you ll realize that nearly every facebook user in your age group knows about them.

Facebook adverts are very cheap because they received terrible click rates. However you can use this for your advantage, because you simply want your advert to be seen, and not clicked on, so by using facebook as part of your leadership style, you can give your online identity or company a big boost in reputation.

Use just a couple of these leadership styles and you ll soon see yourself as an online leader. People across the web will start to bring you up in conversation, you may even become an Internet meme! You never know! Just set aside a small budget and a large amount of time, and you could soon be as famous as Huffington Post or Seth Godwin.

There is no doubt that the economy is in the gutter. Chances are you know at least on person who is recently unemployed, if not possibly yourself. Economic experts theorize the downturn may begin to turn around in the last part of 2009. Begin!

What this analysis truly means is that we’ll be lucky to see any significant change in the state of global economic affairs by mid or late 2011. The recession didn’t happen overnight. The signs of an economic slowdown were quite noticeable over two years ago. Neither will the economy recover overnight, regardless of however much money the federal government throws at the problem.

So Where Do You Find a Job in the Midst of an Economic Meltdown?

The smart people are learning to think outside of the box. There is a certain futility, not to mention frustration, realizing that for every job opening available, you now have five to ten times the competition you would have had three years ago for that same job. Everyday, more and more people around the world are turning to the internet to replace or supplement their diminished incomes in these trying times.

Why the Internet?

The internet is the only place of the face of this planet that offers an individual the opportunity to start their own business for next to no monetary investment. The internet hosting company I use will host unlimited domain names for only $1.99 a month. How cheap is that? You don’t even particularly need good credit to start up an internet business. You can use a debit card if you don’t have a credit card.

Where else can you start up a business with no overhead, no employees and no inventory to store or products to ship? You don’t even need your own product to make money online. People have made vast fortunes online as affiliate marketers, simply promoting other people’s products.

Face it, the Nature of Business “As We Know It” is Changing.

The amount of goods and services purchased on the internet exceeds $670,000,000 a day. That’s right, over 2/3 of a billion dollars each and every single day. And more and more businesses are turning to the internet for their business needs daily.

Say you intend and take a trip to Las Vegas next month. You’ve already decided to splurge and stay in a nice hotel on the strip. You can call the hotel’s 1 800 number and book a room at what could run you $299 a night. Or you can jump on the computer and book that same room for a fraction of the price. And you can do the exact same thing with your airline tickets.

Just a decade ago, neither of these options was available. There was no place to get a good deal if you knew where to look.

How Do I Know I’ll Succeed?

Just like in any other business, there are no guarantees. But unlike most other businesses you don’t have to come up with a hundred grand or take out a second mortgage on your house just to get started.

The best way to hedge your bet is to invest in a good internet coaching program. This will save you months of needless disappointment and frustration trying to figure out how to actually make money online. Many online marketing programs present you with tons of theory, but then fall short on step by step implementation.

You need a program that will take you by the hand and show exactly what you need to do to start making money in the shortest amount of time possible.

I won’t waste your time pointing out the numerous benefits of working from home. Instead, I will leave you with the following thought;
The economy will recover. Economics are and will continue to be cyclic in nature.

The question now becomes…

How much better off will you be when the recession turns around? If you are your own boss and making more money than you ever have before, you will be able to look back and realize that the panic you are experiencing today was the best thing that ever happened to you.

There are many ways to market your online business. Article submissions can be just what you need to start making money online. For a complete review of the most comprehensive marketing program I have yet to find on the internet, visit my website. Best of Luck! http://EZ-MadeWealth.com

Everybody’s talking about web 2.0 or how to use new traffic strategies to drive more people rather, buyers to your web sites.

And today, I m going to show you a very powerful to do just that, without spending a dime (well, maybe a few dollars).

What am I talking about?

YouTube.

Now you should know YouTube pretty well. But allow me give you some facts:

Fact #1: YouTube went from ZERO to 4,000,000,000 MONTHLY visitors within 3 months. And it’s still growing by a staggering rate each day.

Fact #2: In 2006, YouTube won Times Magazine’s Invention of the Year.

Fact #3: YouTube is in the Top 5 most valuable web properties in the world.

Fact #4: YouTube features videos from hundreds and thousands of members, and has made MANY people famous.

Fact #5: And get this more than 75,000 new videos are uploaded every, single day (you see that right.)

Fact #6: Last but not least YouTube serves up to two hundred MILLION clicks daily.

What does that mean to you as a marketer or an Internet entrepreneur?

Well, it only means there s a HUGE amount of traffic ready to be tapped into if you know how to use YouTube to drive more visitors to your web sites.

We ll discuss how you can use YouTube to drive massive views on your web sites in a while.

But first, What makes a good YouTube video?

If you notice, a lot of the videos on YouTube are made by amateurs.

They’re usually not professionally filmed videos.

But that s what makes YouTube attractive, isn’t it?

These videos are not really professional, and most of the time RAW , but it’s realistic.

Sometimes, they are just THAT much more interesting because they’re not really perfect.

To answer our previous question, I’ll reveal some of my ideas here.

You see, I m actually in the process of developing some of my videos to be uploaded on YouTube and use them to drive traffic to my web sites (there’s a science to it as some of my clients have proven time and again with their YouTube videos).

Here’s what I learned:

YouTube Strategy #1 Your videos should be short. These shouldn’t be long movies, as people are busy and look for instant gratification most of the times. No more than 3 to 4 minutes.

YouTube Strategy #2 Then, you’d want your web site URL at the bottom of your videos, so people can see it.

YouTube Strategy #3 Next, this is IMPORTANT: Think of some ways to make your videos viral. See, people on YouTube are constantly on the mindset of: If I like a video, I’ll like to pass it to my friends.

So you want your videos to have some, one or ALL of these characteristics:

Some of the videos I see pass around are usually FUNNY. Well people love to laugh. They love to make OTHER people laugh. So if your video’s funny, it s got humor, people are more likely going to pass it on to their friends.

Something really weird.

Something really shocking.

Something really gross.

Something just, SHOCKING (again). People love to pass those around.

Something really interesting.

Curiosity is ALWAYS good.

A demonstration is great (especially for targeted traffic). Let’s say you have a product, you can show people how it works with your video. Give them a peek at what’s in it for them inside.

Something sexy (can you miss this?).

Something personal, it could be your own story.

I mean¡K there is so much you can do!

There is an incredibly huge potential with YouTube.

I suggest you open your mind and at least look into how you just MAKE SOMETHING (again, doesn’t have to be perfect) to feature on it.

Plus, a lot of these things are COMMON SENSE!

You don t have to buy any products to learn how to make videos people talk about. You see, what do you think would make a good video YOU would want to pass on to your friends?

Write them down, choose one of them and be your own producer for the first time if you haven t (trust me, it’s fun too).

If you have, can you figure out how to benefit from some of the strategies mentioned above?

Go on there, make a video for traffic purposes or simply for demonstration.

Of course we re barely scratching the surface of what you can do with YouTube. If you can get a little creative, there s a LOT more you can do on this amazing place.
