Link Building Course, Week 2

Link Building Class Week 2 - Free Subscriber Bonus

 

  • This class was recorded last year, and in a few places refers to other video content that isn't online for SEO Fast Start subscribers. Some of this content will be made available later.
  • Streaming video is always a compromise between speed and quality, especially with audio - I think my media team did pretty well but let me know! Broadband access is necessary (128k+) but this video should work fine with any cable or DSL access.
  • If you can't see the video at all, you probably need to upgrade your Flash player.
  • For those who like to read along or read ahead, feel free to download the PDF of this presentation.

Hi Dan

we met at Stompernet :) You said I was very engaged, so I'll give you my tuppenceworth on why material that works live doesn't work so well recorded, if you like.

Conferences build community, and web learners are starved for personal contact with the like minded. So live stuff is great, you know you can ask a question and get an immediate response, you know you can chat through the topic afterwards with others.

But when you come online, it's to work. You feel guilty even taking the time to skim instead of working, you're not at all sure if the material will apply to you, and you can't do the alternate stuff you can do at a live event, you have to listen right to the end in case you miss something. Unless it's easy material to view, and to hear, and riveting! then you lose interest fast. It's just not personal. Plus you keep thinking how you ought to be building those pages.

What I do, is I download a bunch of recordings, put one on audio and one on visual and go through my emails at the same time. If anything in either presentation takes hold, I stop checking mail, back up and watch/listen properly, maybe take notes. Camtasia recordings are best for that, you can seect the exact part you want to listen to and not feel guilty about wasting working time.

In the same way, if i'm on a webinair, I check email during it. The good thing about webinairs is the sound quality. I agree with what the others say, poor sound loses listeners fast.

So, I'm probably not typical, and maybe what I say here is no use to you, but thanks a lot for making the material available to me, and this is just my way of saying thanks!
