The Journey Begins

Welcome to BloggyTalk.

Today is the 4th of May 2009 and a start to my social networking experiment.

I spent the last ten years  in front of a computer screen – building web sites, running web hosting company and doing a lot of troubleshooting for clients. I’ve seen many sites that fail and many sites that succeeded. Overall, I can say, that I’ve learned a lot.

I’ve never been a good fan of social networking sites, but, this is my decision to change and test it out.

This project is an experiment to test the following:

  1. Is it possible to make money on the Net, using the publicly available how-to’s?
  2. Is it possible to use social networking tools (Facebook, twitter, myspace, linkedin etc) to attract enough traffic to make money mentioned in #1 above a sizable amount?

There are a few rules that I will adopt:

  1. No money must be spent on advertizing.
  2. All the tools must be publicly available.
  3. Feedback from marketing techniques and books reviewed will be posted on this blog.

Let the journey begin. Your comments, suggestions and support will be much appreciated.

    Just a quick question about your second point “2. All the tools must be publicly available.”

    Does “publicly” available also mean “freely” available?

    By “tools” I mean things like WordPress or Blogger blogs.. etc. They are free as such, but may charge $10/yr for domain mapping etc.
