    Great review Michelle. I didn’t see Tumblr on your list. Not unhappy about that with all the attitude they throw at the TDC. Next year maybe Ed will recommend Blogger instead.
    Hopefully you’ll update this list once in a while for us.

    Thanks, Mitch

    Michelle-

    Awesome video! I found you through the 30DC and very thankful I did. You have great information, tips and advice.

    Really liked the Youtube trick! Never thought to just do something that simple!

    Great post-much appreciation!

    Another video site that was not on the list that I got FANTASTIC results for (I’m talking #1 on Google Blog search) within 24 hours was vidilife.com

    I’m not sure about the long term factor, but for quick measurable results, it worked great for me.

    Thanks Michelle for this really useful list. It’s really helpful to know where to focus energy when time’s limited (and when isn’t it?!) I always read or listen to your posts because they never fail to have top info delivered clearly and quickly.

    This is wonderful. Do you have this in a list format, rather than video? My laptop is old, and I can only view the first half.

    Thanks for any assistance!

    Thanks Michelle, I just found a website with over 2000 social sites and I had no clue on which ones to target. Now that I found your video my question is answered.

    Thanks.

    Hi Michelle

    Nice Video. Thanks for posting! Can you provide list rather than a video. It is not clear to see.

    Thanks

    wonderful tips. I am not a fan of videos, sometimes just wish simple powerpoint slides that cuts to the case :)

    Wow, this is really good. I knew ezinearticles.com was good as I’ve had great success with them, but many of the others, I had no clue about.

    Thanks Michelle!

    One thing you forgot to mention, using social media on social media. I stumbled your YouTube video and getting traffic to a video on YouTube increases the chance that someone will follow your link back.

    I have some fun video’s up, not useful, but fun. I still see a fair bit of traffic from YouTube and having stumble sending people there doesn’t hurt.

    Good tips overall. I didn’t know about ehow and I use flickr, but never thought about the social media aspect. Will be adding backlinks on the pictures that I have there.

    Thanks

    Thanks for the information Michelle, appreciate it. Did you see the video quality? Was that done on purpose? You are a hard worker I know that, but this video does not show as a professional marketer. Just a constructive opinion. I know my blog sucks…

    Great video. Link juice here we come. Appreciate Michelle.

    Excellent content as always, Michelle. Thanks! This aspect takes time, but it is well worth the effort. Good to have such a social media list. It is crucial to be a bit choosy here, otherwise we would have time for nothing else!

  34. Ultimate iWealth - Kok Choon October 4, 2008 at 1:22 am //

    Thanks for the great presentation Michelle, you are the best! I can start to leverage more social media site to get good back links.

    BTW, is 30 minutes back link still work well? many download sites will delete the “fake” software, and I think Google will start to degrade the link quality over time…

    Great video – very, very helpful THANK YOU!

    Question, though, I tried the YouTube trick (mini-tour of website recorded on newly downloaded Jing for upload to YouTube) and can’t get the upload to work. When I tried tech support the advice was for Camtasia specifically. Suggestions?

  41. Chris Morin October 10, 2008 at 3:29 pm //

    Great list… I just downloaded your daily to do and am about to print it so I can read it at Starbucks tomorrow. :) Sometimes you just need to leave your computer!

    Is this list still accurate? Usually these lists needs updating like every 3 months.

    @Tjäna Pengar: Yes, it’s still accurate.

    Great video, it certainly gave me a lot of pointers. I am in that category of people who don’t have time to go through all the social media sites. I actually is a bit surprised to see that ezinearticles.com is the only article directory that ranks high here. Does this mean that one should focus the article marketing only towards them? I have noticed lately that GoArticles.com articles have had problems being indexed in Google’s search results. do you have any experience with this?

    Thanks for the post, and i have to admit that me reading on this blog for the first time today is a disaster. I will be back for more of your fantastic posts from now on.
