It's time to release the future of marketing from the headlock that you've put in. I'm talking about curmudgeons out there. While many have greeted Web 2.0 with open arms some refuse to embrace it and instead prefer to fight tooth and nail. If the past methods of marketing worked online no one would be eager to find new methods. This is the web--faster, fresher, better is expected.
Those expectations however, mean very little to those who want to control every aspect of the internet. Both the greedy geeks and SEO service sites are still trying to cling desperately to the old internet that they claim to have built. But that web is just that--old. Users, browsers, small business owners and even corporate moguls have decided that they want a say, they want to be part of the web building process.
There has never been a better time for Emarketers to take up SEO strategies. Because while it is still work, it's a lot easier than it was five years ago. For those who are unfamiliar with the concept of Web 2.0 strategies it's about the coming together of collective minds to contribute to the expansion of the web.
Web marketers are beginning to understand that they no longer have monopoly over content creation. And why would they want to. I, for one, welcome anyone who wants to add the expansion of my site by providing me with content that my users can use and further contribute too.
Web 2.0 strategies allow you to get in front of a lot of people a lot faster. With users passing around content and videos, sending links to like minded people, and posting in virtually every corner that will allow them, net marketers should be cheering instead of shaking their heads while they fumble around with the old methods.
Many Web 2.0 critics debate that it circulates crap and that competition for marketers is ridiculously fierce as everyone tries to get on the front page of virtually every news-feed out there. But I beg to differ. Google and other major search engines still have some say as to what gets ranked what. Also, as more and more content gets produced users become pickier as to what they consider "quality" and what "crap" is. As for the competition, this is marketing there has always been competition and there always will be.
If you've been sitting around trying to figure out what Web 2.0 is and whether or not to do it, stop thinking and start link sharing, social bookmaking, voting, and creating sticky content.
People can debate all they want the fact is the web has altered. The rules for the marketing game have changed. You are either in or out.
So you are trying to find a way to stop arguing with your partner all the time. There are a few things you need to consider that you might not have thought of. First you need to understand that fights do not just materialize, especially if you and your partner seem to be in a steady pattern of fighting. There are a few things that have to be present in order to casue and fight. Think of it like a hurricane. In order for a hurricane to form you have to have an area of cold air that meets with an area of warm humid air. These things do not just materializeout of nowhere. And neither do your arguments. Ever had an fight about something that you think is unimportant? You forget to buy milk at the grocery store and all of the sudden "you don't love me"? What is that about? Chances are it's not about that. We fall into these patterns because we fail to communicate about the deeper issues. Little things (or big things) add up over time leaving us feeling unappreciated, used, unloved and so forth. These things go unspoken because they are tied to deeper more painful issues and when a smaller trigger, like the forgetting to call, comes up it is easier to use this as a reason for our frustration. So what do we do? First we need to realize three things in order to stop arguing: - I can only deal with my own emotions - Trying to change the way someone else feels is not only impossible it is often damaging. - If I get angry it's because I choose to be. Nothing can alter your state of mind unless you choose to let it happen. If you get angry you choose to feel that way. - I am in control of my communication. When we choose to scream and yell we are choosing to harm our relationships. If you can't seem to make a point without getting heated or mad then maybe you should look into anger management. On the same note if you are involved with a person that cannot seem to have a disagreement without screaming and yelling you have only two choices. You can participate in the yelling or you can choose not to. When you choose not to it is best to say: "I cannot have this discussion with you if you choose to yell and scream. When you calm down enough to speak to me in a reasonable tone we can continue." This way you are being respectful and not avoiding the issue. Ultimately, we must understand that to stop fighting we have to control what WE can control. Which is our own behavior.
