Blog

Blogs are great platforms off of which you can promote an internet marketing business as well as interact with visitors to get their feedback!

Submit Articles

Submitting articles online is another great way to not only increase your web presence but also build valuable back links to your site.

Free Giveaways

Remember the articles you are submitting? Well you can direct people to your squeeze page with the link in your resource box and here again you will be boosting your web presence and increase efficiency at the same time!

Signature File

As you navigate around online and get involved in social sites, forums, sending emails or even blog commenting always leave a signature file. This simply reflects your name, company name and of course your link. This is you calling card and you want to leave it everywhere when the opportunity presents itself!

RSS Feeds

Be sure to place this tab prominently so that visitors do not have to go searching for it therefore it is recommended to position it at the top of the page!

Now you have one simple tab that will help expand your web presence on a viral basis! Can you spell efficiency?
