This is Zeitgeist Stuff

I've read a lot recently and heard a lot recently about the frustrations and burnout felt by teachers.

Well, it's June, so that's bound to happen.

But this year it's seemed to have been heavier and more pervasive than in most years. And I think when we look back on it, we'll realize why.

The 2008 - 2009 school year will be remembered as the year that the battle for social media in the classroom was fully engaged.

True, some great teachers began using blogs and wikis in school years ago. But this year saw something different. In the full explosion of social media -- especially as evidenced by the exponential cultural growth of Facebook and Twitter -- this year marked the first time that teachers took control of social media in a big way and demanded that they be able to use it both for professional development and as a tool in their classroom teaching arsenal.

Some admins bought in, some admins balked; but teachers everywhere flocked to social media and opened it up in ways that could not have been imaginable just a short time ago. Teachers flocked to Twitter because they fundamentally recognized the value of a free connected network. And that's one of the most important distinctions to be made between the old Web and the new Web:

The old Web was top-down and styled after the world as it had been.

The new Web is free and reflects we the people as we shall be.

This is Zeitgeist stuff.

***

And, inevitably, along with the Zeitgeist came the fear. Along with the teachers dying for the truth followed the folks scared to death of anyone knowing the truth. Along with the freedom that the new networks of humanity suggested came the eventual threats of blocking, filtering, and just plain turning off.

And many teachers who had just begun using Web 2.0 saw the doors closed before their eyes.

There were no explanations. Just fear. Paranoia.

Same stuff that always follows Zeitgeist around.

A teacher friend confided to me that his school had a team of several lawyers prepped for a battle over social networking. A battle that never took place. The fact that the school was willing to keep the lawyers retained for work they'd never do speaks volumes about the culture of fear.

Years ago, MySpace was made out to be a den of villainy. I recall being told by a law enforcement officer that perverts and criminals were timing their villainous escapades to the posts of teenagers across the USA.

Paranoia stuff.

"Don't take the train because it could derail" stuff.

***

I have had the fortune to work in a school where getting sites unblocked has been fairly easy and where parents have been on the side of opening access. And that's another of the things that we teachers need to keep in mind: parents and teachers working together can change the world.

Many teachers have long feared parents.

And many parents have long feared teachers.

Enough.

Get together, already. It's our kids' futures we're talking about here. It's our future. And despite the best intentions of the philistines to portray it as blithe cliche: it's THE future.

Who the heck do you think is going to be running this place when we're all gone?

Them.

Those kids.

The ones we're afraid will discover sex on the Internet.

The ones we're afraid will curse each other out in a chat.

The ones we're afraid will publish things on a blog about how they hate school because it's boring and useless and the teachers treat them like two-year-olds who don't actually realize what's going on.

The ones who we're afraid might ignore us.

Those kids.

Them.

***

Ever see one of those slasher films where the bad guy is wielding a kitchen knife?

I'm especially a fan of the late-'70s / early-'80s brand of horror flicks, so I'm thinking Friday the 13th, Halloween, etc.

Now, tons and tons of kids saw those movies. You, like me, might be one of them.

So consider: after returning from the movie theatre, did any of you find all the kitchen utensils hidden away by your parents?

Because that's sort of the same lunacy we're talking about here with the fear of social media. We're telling kids: you can't use the thing that hundreds of millions of adults are using because we know that you are so impressionable you would only be able to use it to conduct unspeakable acts.

When we pull social media from kids, effectively what we are saying is: we can't trust you around the knives in the kitchen.

It's insane.

As for the fear of people stealing our children via the Internet: did fear of strangers in shopping malls ever really slow down the economy? You might as well keep your kid locked in a box because that's the message you are sending: you can't be trusted.

Kids get all of these ludicrous messages from us the responsible adults and then we wonder why they go and do stupid things.

Which lands us back in the classroom.

Because the classroom is the final frontier for trust. The classroom is the last place that kids can go and try to get a little truth, experience a little honesty, and be served by a professional whose sole responsibility is to prepare the child to enter the world with integrity, grace, and intelligence.

And now, you've emasculated that professional by taking away the one thing that can best connect her or his classroom to the rest of that 'real world' we always talk about.

And it's right there that the kid realizes that it's all a con.

It's all about the lawyers.

All about the fear.

***

So I understand why so many teachers are burnt out. I see the exasperation in the comments I receive on this blog. I feel the pain and frustration in the emails I receive.

All I can say is this:

The 2008 - 2009 school year will be remembered as the year that the battle for social media in the classroom was fully engaged.

And if you are reading this blog, then in some way you were probably a part of this battle. It's not over. Our work just gets harder.

I will continue to use the freedom my school honors its teachers with to continue to seek new and effective and powerful ways to engage students through the authentic application of digital technology to their everyday classroom experience. I will continue to fight for the rights of universal free access by all students and all teachers in the one way I feel like I can: by setting precedent for the use of that access in the classroom. And I am hardly alone. As I've said before, there are thousands of teachers who in a simple blogpost would make my work look like so much of yesterday's news.

I'm asking them hereby to do exactly that. Make this paperless classroom teacher look old-fashioned. Make the paperless classroom and the full integration of social media into education appear as obvious and simple and naive as it is.

Make me obsolete.

That's the way we win this thing. Because none of this is about you or I feeling comfortable; it's about our kids getting the truth.

Make me obsolete.

No, i didn't forget to tell you about what marketing strategies you can use to make any of those Internet business models work, i just thought will be better to leave them for the end :-)

Well, if you decide to build a content site or blog I recommend you to focus in link building which will make your SEO efforts a lot easier. You can buy or exchange links, just remember that one way links will give you higher ranking.

If you decide to promote your ezine or free PDF report you need to set up a good lead capture page or squeeze page, then for faster results use PPC (pay per click) advertising, not necessary Google Adwords, you can use Yahoo Publishers or MSN Ad Center for cheaper ad rates. Forget about social media marketing if you decide to make money, you can use web 2.0 marketing after to build your brand online.

To your success,

By Luis Galarza - Internet Business Strategies.

Can May 2009 Have A Bright Income Opportunity For Online Marketers? See If You Can Monetize This Hot Trends And Top Search Keywords!

I personally think that May have a open opportunity to generate a profit, it all depends if you know how to spot the hot trends for this month and do the right market and keyword research that will uncover money making niches and topics that can become a new start-up or another way to increase your current income.

Some of the factors affecting this month hot markets are the warm season, warm weather sports, outside workout, more walking, more running, holidays, entertainment events, and others (more information about this in the new Trend vs Trends members only blog). Each of this factors can give you many chances to start a new Internet business or create new income streams for your current one. Just make sure is part of your goals and don't take your focus from a current important project. Because as you know jumping from one project to another one you never get nothing done, and you will never make any money that way...

The best way to do this is by starting something new after successfully finishing your current project, or hire extra help to work on the your next venture and you just manage the progress of it. Outsourcing is one the best ways to grow a business on a budget, a little more about that at the end of this post.


Here are some hot trends and keywords from some of the most popular search engines results that represent traffic and niche marketing opportunities:

1. Beyonce.

This celebrity have all kind of hot money making products that can be promoted through affiliate programs like Amazon, eBay, Buy.com, and others... Some of her product are calendars, posters, music CDs, mp3's downloads (Think iTunes), movies, videos, etc..


2. Ali Larter.

3. Mike Tyson.

Looks like Mike Tyson is becoming a hot trend right now because the movie about his life will be in theaters soon. Many people know about his victories but not about his personal and financial failures. This is a flick that not just Mike fans wants to watch but also anyone who love boxing, which makes an excellent micro-niche to generate some good income from, but you need to hurry.


4. Mia Farrow.

5. Don Cheadle.

This is simple just create a fan blog about him and promote his movies... Remember he's part of Iron-man 2 movie.


6. Madden NFL 10.

Put the power of eBay affiliate program work for you here and you can see fast commission checks. Remember to select collectibles, accessories, tickets, cards, clothes, video games, and more.


7. Peanut Butter recall.

Provide news, resources, and useful information to people concern about this and promote similar products that can be use instead of peanut butter.


8. Government Grants.

This recession is making this topic an very hot trend, because there is many people looking for financial help from the Government, and is your duty to help them find what they are looking for.


9. Swine Flu.

This is the number one news now that is on high alert levels for possible pandemic. Many people already jump in the wagon and they're trying to blog about it, but nobody had done a very good job so far...

BLOGGING TIP: Don't just be the news, become the best and only
swine flu online resource center.

10. Carmen Electra.

Her strip tease workout DVDs are very hot and easy sellers, also you can promote posters, calendars, videos, movies, etc..


11. Jamie Lynn Spears.

12. Unclaimed Money.

This is actually a good business opportunity for those who like to do the run around for others and get a percentage of the findings. But, as an online niche marketer you can profit by promoting the business opportunity, books, or earn AdSense commissions by creating a resourceful site.


13. Mexico City Earthquake.

14. NASCAR.

This is another excellent market to be in, because it has a big fan base and is a long term money maker, with collectibles, video games, cards, clothes, and more, is no way you cannot make money online on this market. Just find a unique way to present the information to this audience.


15. Child Obesity.

Just promote healthy food for kids and provide kids healthy eating tips for parents. Huge demand and highly profitable is if done right.


16. Ben Folds.

17. Arlen Specter.

18. Julia Roberts.

She have a good fan base and many movies for you to promote and generate revenue from...


19. Amanda Peet.

20. Aerosmith.

Think CD's, mp3 downloads, ringtones, calendars, posters, concert tickets, you name it! Promote all the products or just focus on one or few micro-niches for faster results.


21. Jeopardy.

22. Bob Dylan.



Of course you can't forget that this most holds one the best sales generating holidays which is "Mother's Day", and as marketer you can base you whole promotions on this holiday to increase your sales this month, or you can use a few other keywords or combine them together in a clever way to boost your Internet marketing campaign conversion rates.

Remember is all about results, so tweak and tune your advertising campaign to help you raise the number of responses you get from an ad. As you know selling on the Internet is all about split testing and tracking to know what needs to be change to improve conversions. Look forward for my article that will reveal some profit potential keywords and niches from the "Mother's Day" holiday.


Take a look at 8 of the most popular products for May and summer 2009:

1. Baby Strollers.

2. Nanny Jobs.

3. Antioxidants.

4. Used RVs.

5. Wolverine Video Game.

6. Surgical Masks.

7. Thank You Cards.

8. Home Gyms.

Here are some of the most popular movies that can give you some web traffic and income benefits this month:

1. Obsessed.

2. Angels & Demons.

3. More Than a Game.

4. The Hurt Locker.

5. Ghosts of Girlfriends Past.

6. The Soloist.

As you know you can also add Google AdSense to your stream of income generators, if you don't you will leave money on the table... Just position the AdSense ads and affiliate programs the right way to increase sales and clicks. If you want to increase your affiliate marketing results try to focus the site to recommend relevant products indirectly and directly...

Indirectly, by adding the link in the content of the site without any warning just make sure the anchor and the content of the article is relevant to the product you are promoting.

And directly is by adding a resources area in the site bar with links to related products or services or by writing recommendations, reviews, and also by adding mini recommendation during the content of your article.

MARKETING TIP: Remember niche marketing works best when is
targeting a micro niche per site or category.

After doing all that and still want to use AdSense, just don't be pushy and add the ad unites under each article or blog post, or at the bottom of your site bar.

Don't try to go after the main keywords, trend, or product specially if you looking to generate money fast, instead target a long tail keyword or micro-niche for better and faster results, and then duplicate your success with other micro-niches.

Product Creation Secrets Behind Street Fighter Movies Failures

By Luis Galarza - Internet Business Strategies.

Do You Think The Street Fighter Movies Failure's Can Teach You Some product creation Secrets?



Well, let see! If you are familiar with the Street Fighters classic video games, cartoon show, and comics, you may already know that the franchise released two movies one in 1994 starting one of the top action actors in that time Jean Claud Van Dann, and the second one was release this year (2009) title "Street Fighter: The Legend Of Chun-Li". Both films make money, but didn't hit the jockpot like they expected, which was really estrange, because the games are one of the most popular video games in the world and are consider classic collectibles.

Now is time for the good strategies and the bad strategies!



Good Product Development Secrets.

Something good you can learn from their movies failures is that they created multiple type of products that could be sold to the same and larger targeted fan based, all from one single product "The Video Game". First they turn the game into a comic, then they broadcast the TV show all over Japan and the U.S.. And them when they saw that the buzz about the franchise was still strong they decide to make a film.

This is great advice for any new or advanced online marketer who are focus on information products publishing and software development.

For example, as an infoproduct publishing company you can create an ebook or report, them after or during transaction you can offer your customers the opportunity to buy the video tutorial to get step by step demonstrations, also you can develop the software that will make the whole process even easier for your students, and why stop their, now you gut the opportunity to offer a membership base service where you and your team will do all the dirty work for them and make things way more easy. You see the picture... all started with one product!

Quote: "A successful product is never successful until you expand the profit
possibilities of such a product." Luis Galarza :-)

Well, as yo can see you can apply this same strategies to expand the profit generation potential of a product or service. Like Donald Trump said "Think Big, Think Expansive".



So Why The Movies Fail!

There can be different factors, and many experts will try to go deep into the analytic part of the situation, which is is completely irrelevant to what really happened. The movies failure can happened to any kind of information product like ebooks, reports, video tutorials, teleclasses, webcast, podcast, etc., they fail because the creators or publishers didn't provide what their audience wanted.

In the game, the comic, the TV show the main characters were Ryu and Ken, so when fans heard about the production of a movie they got exited, they were waiting for a long time, they when to watch it, and BOOM! The movie crash against the ground because they completely change the story that everyone already knew, and was expecting to see, but instead they got a different plot that put the main characters in second or even third place inside the story. let me tell you that was a killer... The movie was good if it had a different name, not Street Fighter.

Then 2009 comes with another episode of the film that offer another B.S. story, and killed the potential of the product.

Here is exactly what help the movies fail:

1. - Not enough market research.

2. - Not giving what their customers wanted.

3. - Not listening to their current customers.

4. - Not knowing how to spot opportunities from current data.

5. - Bad risk management.

6. - Trying to reinvent the product idea without strong market data.

Secrets To Fix This Developing Problem.

Well done market research is crucial to the success of any Internet marketing campaign or online business idea. Also, you need to learn how to manage the risk, how to analyze the data, and how to spot or find hiding opportunities inside your niche or company. Some thing you can do to help you in your product creation process are:

- Surveys to current customers and leads to know how to improve your offerings, and see what else they want you to provide.

- Polls on site are a fast way to get instant feedbacks on different topics.

- Social networks, leverage the large amount of people in top networks to gain market insights.

- Keyword research, from organic search results and PPC advertising.

- Ask for testimonials to know what people like about your product, so you improve other things.
- Research feedbacks and customer service inquiries to better understand the need of your audience.

- Keep in top of trade news to spot new trends that may help you find ideas to improve your current product or to come out with new ones, depending on where the market is moving to.

product creation can be simple if you know the secrets to provide exactly what your potential customers want. So, even if you don't have money to invest on research, is OK, the web is now full of free and low cost services that can be use to research a niche based on keyword search counts, hot web topics, news, etc.. you can use tools like the free Wordtracker tool for top search keywords, Affiliate Elite to spy on your competition PPC campaings and more, and IE Club.

1. - Automobiles.

All the problems in the car industry you will never though there will be a chance of monetization, but sometimes appearances are deceiving, because after all the low new car sales, used cars demand is very high. People try to downsize their car to an used more affordable one, and those with new cars are switching for a used one to avoid monthly payments. Also as the unemployment keep rising those people need to look for more inexpensive ways of transportation.

Another trends that are in the demand are used car parts, car cleaning products, DIY car fixing information (Books), and auto detailing services.


2. - Entrepreneur Educational Products.

As you a lot of people are getting unemployed, and in look for a way to regain their incomes, most of those jobless peoples are going to get inside their entrepreneurial mindset and find different ways to learn how to make money. The Wall Street Journal did a research where they learn that a lot of these people are going to try to start an online business instead of an offline one or they are going to find some kind of virtual job.

All this people are potential prospects to buy or become opt-in leads for a training course that will teach them Internet marketing and how to make money online. As affiliate you have a good market here, now remember that most of these new marketers are newbies, so try to promote courses that are design for beginners not intermediate or advanced.

Also you can put together a content site like a blog or niche social network and monetize it with AdSense, CPA offers, and in-house advertising sales. This trend also open doors for are next trend...


3. - Low Cost Business Opportunities.

Forget about it if you try to promote an expensive business opportunity, you are better off promoting a low cost one and make money by the quantity. Just make sure whatever you promote is ethical, legal, paid high commissions, if possible residual income, and is on demand.

You can also make a combination of trend number 2 and 3 and cross promote business educational products to have multi revenue streams.


4. - Web And Mobile Applications.

Get the linsence to use the API of a affiliate program like Netflix or Amazon and hire software developers to create apps that will help users find movies or books right from their mobile phones or favorite web 2.0 site.

A good market for mobile apps are the iPhone, Smart Phones, and Android Base Phones. And if you want to create applications for the web most popular social networks you need to start with Facebook, Twitter, Myspace, FriendFeed, Google Blogger, and Ning.
