Beware the Blog/RSS Hype!

by Sid Hale

With all the press that RSS and Blogs have received lately, it was inevitable that everyone and his brother would try to capitalize on the buzz by creating "how-to" products to tell you how to use these technologies to make a profit. 

I can't count the number of people who've been willing to share a technique for getting my site listed on Yahoo! in just minutes - by creating an RSS feed.  

I've had offers from people who just started a blog within the past couple of weeks, and one who admitted to just starting his first blog two days before!

All the hype might make you feel like you're about to miss the boat.  In fact, a lot of people will tell you just that - but before you get carried away by all this, let me try to put it all into perspective for you.

First, understand that Blogging and RSS are two totally separate technologies. 

  • They aren't interdependent.

  • You can use one or the other - or both.

  • Either can be implemented without the other.

I'm not trying to discourage anyone from using these technologies (both hold a lot of promise when used right), but I do want you to....

We're Turning the Tables on Ken McArthur! 

Ken McArthur (the creator of Perpetual Learning Series and the HotSeat events) is getting ready to launch a new internet advertising service, so we've put him on the HotSeat in the next Perpetual Learning Series event.   

Ken's new Traffic Showcase will bring advertisers and publishers together much like Google's PPC advertising program - with one major difference.

[hint - it has nothing to do with search engines]

Tonight, you can get an advance look at how Traffic Showcase will work and how it will benefit you.  How you can join for nothing and even make money by showing ads on your web pages.  I've gotten you a special pass to this one HotSeat event, so that it won't cost you a dime to attend!  

Caution - Don't get distracted when you go to the  special pass page.  It's OK to pre-register if you want.  But be sure to go to the bottom of the page and sign up for the teleconference.

Join me and the other HotSeat panel members via teleconference while we analyze Ken's business model, question him on every aspect of his plans to create a truly different PPC advertising program, and help him finalize his offer to help insure its success.  

These events give you a lot of insight into the thought process and the decisions that go into the creation of successful internet businesses - especially how to recognize an opportunity and how to launch your promotions.  It's a brainstorming session you don't want to miss.  

Even if you can't make it, you should sign up because everyone who signs up gets to download the recording after the fact (whether you manage to attend - or not).
