Streaming 24/7 from my office has been a great success. Every day, whether I am present or not, there is usually something happening — especially in the chat room. I cannot thank you all enough for that. Your participation is what keeps things going. And while the stream is free to watch, this sort of thing does cost me a bit of money to manage. To help offset the costs, I am pleased to announce the introduction of paid advertising.
Advertisers can begin promoting to an average of 2,000 daily page views, for just $25 per week. Banner images are to be posted in the size of 210x75 pixels. Click here to get started. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
Less than three months ago, I announced the relaunch of GearPop. Along with the introduction came a whole slew of features, including a brand new design and the Discount Finder — a tool used for searching Amazon's database for the best prices on almost any product you can imagine. Moving forward, and in a constant effort to improve things, I am proud to introduce the newest rollout of GearPop features.
Since the beginning, GearPop has been all about the products you've recommended and the conversations created from said products. Now it's time to take things one step further, and that's in the form of content creation. To keep things interesting, however, I would like to present this opportunity to the public. In the interest of revisiting social blogging, I am thrilled to announce the introduction of the GearPop Blog.
The GearPop Blog is a social blogging platform that is open to publishing guest posts, created by you. This is an excellent way of not only sharing your views on the latest technology, but it's also an opportunity to gain exposure and grow yourself as a brand.
This is not your average technology blog, however. Rather than concentrating on technology news, like most websites seem to do, the GearPop Blog encourages content focused around a specific topic. This includes product reviews, step-by-step tutorials, and anything else you feel is relevant. Content is king, and that is the ultimate goal with this new platform. Click here to get started!
The second addition to GearPop I would like to talk about today is GearPop Giveaways. While I have hosted several giveaways on my YouTube channel in the past, they have always been few and far between. From this moment forward, I am happy to say that you will now have the chance of entering giveaways on a weekly basis. These weekly giveaways will usually include gift cards to popular websites and services, such as Amazon and iTunes.
But the giveaways don't stop there. From time to time, GearPop Giveaways will feature the chance of winning popular items of high value. For example, to kick things off, I will be giving away two iPad minis as of April 13. Details regarding this giveaway can be found here. Oh, and the best part? This is just the beginning.
Between rolling out the GearPop Blog and introducing weekly giveaways, I am really excited to see where things are going. GearPop has easily been my most successful project yet, with still tons of room to grow. I cannot wait to see what kind of content is created over time. It's a bright future for content creators.
It's no secret that I have quickly formed a passion for affiliate marketing and its benefits. Actually, that could be said for Internet marketing in general. I find it all to be very fascinating. The ability to reach out to an audience in the form of content creation is something I personally enjoy. In fact, it doesn't even feel like work most of the time. In an effort to turn this newly found passion into something even bigger, I am proud to present my newest project — Di Franco Media.
Di Franco Media is a website built entirely around the idea of publishing product reviews, sharing Internet marketing resources, and anything else relevant. Consider it a central hub of information that I believe is worth sharing. Through the past month or so, I have been tirelessly creating a ton of great content — all of which is now available for viewing. This includes the following:
While content is the primary focus of Di Franco Media, this new website offers so much more. Feel free to check out both the Resources and Tools pages for a great list of products and services that can help grow your brand. Links listed on both these pages were selected by me, based on personal experience and research.
I am also excited to announce my first newsletter! This is something viewers and readers have been requesting for a while now. Subscribing to my newsletter not only gains you free access to my "15 YouTube Tips" eBook, but this also puts you on a list to receive future email updates from me.
There is still a lot to talk about, but I would like to encourage you to check out the website for yourself. I've also been busy creating several videos regarding the products I review, which can be seen here. This new YouTube channel focuses only on Di Franco Media and its content — with plenty more to come.
I'm excited to see where Di Franco Media takes me. This is definitely a project that I have been thinking about for quite some time now. It's great to see it finally becoming a reality. If you have any questions or comments regarding this new project, please feel free to comment below. You are also free to contact me on Twitter and Facebook, as well as my Contact page.
