Ross Goldberg - Web 2.0 List-Building Secrets Revealed (Part 2)

During the second half of his List Building Superstars interview, Ross Goldberg shared his three preferred Web 2.0 tactics and vision for achieving profitable ends.

1. Internet Video:

The best way to get targeted customers into your sales funnel without resorting to bonuses or freebies. The video presentation should speak for itself and attract subscribers who will value your e-mail correspondence. The end result is a responsive list that will be receptive to surveys and other forms of meaningful interaction.

2. Social Networking:

The best alternative to face-to-face communication. Get involved in select forums and niche discussion groups. A long-term strategy that positions you as the expert. Use tagging and bookmarking techniques to become more viral.

3. Blogging:

Deal with and write about real issues. Boring, diary-like musings are a waste of time and bandwidth! Quality content shows that you are a real person and serious about your niche.

Final (but Essential) Words of Advice.

Goldberg advises all aspiring Internet Marketers to treat their Web 2.0 activity like a business. Among other things, it means being selective about partnerships and alliances, because there are a lot of fake "experts" online. Carry out research and due diligence into prospective business partners, and protect yourself with copyrights and written contracts. Schedule each day according to your priorities and capabilities. "Ethically" replicate the list-building habits and tactics of successful competitors, then provide top-quality, unique content for subscribers.

Ross is convinced that your favorite traffic generation method - whatever that may be - plus Web 2.0 branding will build your list. Use the people around you to push yourself towards your goal, your success.

Conclusion.

Ross Goldberg is a prime example of playing to your strengths and knowing how to compensate for actual weaknesses. He is at the forefront of profitable Web 2.0 marketing, because he had the vision and drive to pursue it. Whether or not Web 2.0 "humanizes" the Internet paradigm is the Information Age question. For now, all interested parties can at least agree that profound change is upon us.
