First of all, it’s essential that you have a way for people to connect with you on the social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Youtube. This is how your messages and content can spread virally. This strategy produces powerful mouth-to-mouth referrals to content that gets passed quickly and massively throughout the Internet.
Two important WordPress Plugins that are a MUST are Tweetmeme and the Simple Facebook Share button. You’ll want to have these buttons placed within each page and post on your blog.
The reason that these buttons are so massively important is they are your conduit for people to syndicate or share your content to their friends on these very busy social media sites. This tactic is literally how bloggers get so many page views in a short amount of time and why blogger incomes can grow so quickly!
Today’s very short video:
So if it’s your goal is to get your ideas and content in front of a massive amount of eyes, you’ll definitely want to load up your blog with links to the social media sites. There’s no debate about it!

Hi Kary,
Excellent blog. Learned about two things I had wondered about, but hadn’t figured out yet.
Thanks for the input,
Alan

Hi Alan,
What were the two things you learned?
Kary
I love your content Kary. I watched your two hour video on getting your blog set up and I learned so much. Though I have had two WordPress blogs for about 9 months now, I can see how I can organize my site better and some additional helpful plugins etc.
I am overjoyed to be apart of The Unified Tribe.

Kary –
Great info (for newbies and the more experienced)… I am loving all these connections and content that I now have access to at the “click of the mouse” through the Unified Tribe.
Great to connect with you!

Love the way you’re taking building a blog step by step through important processes for everyone to follow. Not only empowering the newbies, but also reminding the more experienced of timely tips and methods.
Thanks,

Hi Kary!
Great to be visiting your blog! You always provide so much value! I remember hanging on your every word the first time that I heard you on one of JB’s webinars!
An opt-in box is so important and I guess that I have missed the mark, because no one ever opts into mine!
What is the trick to a really alluring opt-in?

Hi Mentor Mama (Nancy)!
Although your offer is creative… I don’t think people are looking for another
“Career” online… They are seeking “Freedom”. What are the HOT benefits
for them to subscribe to your blog? How is it compelling and different?
…that is your unique offer for them. This is really important. Keep it fun
but also keep it powerfully magnetic. People are asking themselves,
“What’s in it for me?” You need to answer that. Scratch their itch…
Love ya,
Kary
Hi Kary,
Thanks for your simple yet effective tips. Look forward to investing 2 hours into that video Faith (above) was talking about. I will let you know how that went!!!
Have a great day

by for a visit!
Cheers!

People are always seeking wisdom. Now package it up and make it exciting!
