Now I am sure that you at this moment use one of the following, Facebook, Myspace ,Twitter , Beebo, or have contributed comments or content to a blog at some point.
And if you have then you are have been an active contributor to web 2.0.
So if you have asked the question ” what is web 2.0 ?” then it’s really just a website that you can add stuff to.
And that’s about it really.
Web 2.0 sites are different to the old Web 1.0 sites because you can add to them and be active in the content on them.
It promotes active involvement among it’s users.
Now they get the chance to add to it, even alter it, and I guess it serves to bring people together.
So now that we’ve answered the question “what is web 2.0″ lets move right along and address the next most important question for wanna-be online money makers.
” How do I make money from web 2.0 ? “
Because one of the main plus points about web 2.0 is that on the whole , it’s free.
You can get a few hundred followers or friends on a social network application, send them an offer , and make a few sales.
The same goes for blogs, find some good ones in your marketplace and start commenting and interacting and you will drive people to your site.
Again, it’s all free.
But there are some things you need to understand as you look to take advantage of this web 2.0 boom.
You see, these are not advertising mediums, and they are not filled with people actively looking for what you have to offer.
This is a different medium to a search engine where people are typing in things and actively looking for solutions to their problems.
So you will have to adapt your techniques accordingly.
Ok, so what do I mean by that ?
Well, I would try and make your advertising on web 2.0 very relevant and specific.
Quality, not quantity.
There is not point getting on Facebook, Myspace or Twitter and trying to gather as many friends as possible, as quick as you can, then blasting out a spammy offer that might not have anything to do with what they are interested in.
Take a bit of time to gather contacts that are openly expressing an interest in what you have.
It might take a bit more time but you will reap the rewards.
You don’t want to just spam people and burn all your bridges.
And make sure you give before you expect to receive.
If you’re going to look to get some visitors from a blog then add some value to it, contribute some quality answers to people’s questions.
Don’t just jump on and post ” check out my stuff .”
Treat people well, provide quality comments, content and give great value and people will start visiting your web site.
And then you can start making some money from web 2.0.
