Generating leads for your Network Marketing business is much easier when you use Social Networking sites. They are excellent places to connect with people that have similar interests and build relationships that can lead to business partnerships.
Every network marketer knows they need as many quality leads for their downline as they can find. Let’s take a look at how you can use this new social tool to generate fresh leads for your business on the Internet.
The key point in a social networking site is that people enjoy building relationships within a community of other people with similar interests and opinions. The networking aspect comes into play because you can recommend products or opportunities that you are involved in a natural way. You will be more trusted because you are a friend as opposed to someone trying to sell them something.
This does take some work on your part by getting to know people and developing relationships with them. There is no sense trying to join a social networking site strictly for the purpose of building your business, because you will come across as a phony.
There really is no limit to the potential that your business can derive from these sites just based on the sheer number of registered users. For example Facebook has over 100 million registered users which is an astounding number. My Space has twice as many as that.
Another form of networking can come through social directories such as Digg, or Stumbleupon. These directories serve as an excellent way to meet people and a place for you to bookmark a blog post for both the reader and the search engines to find. This bookmarking can lead to potential visitors and future leads for your network marketing business as well.
One key aspect that makes social networking sites so popular is that you can do it without spending a lot of money. Your only real investment is the time that it takes to hang out and socialize with other members and become a social network marketer. Over time this can pay off by attracting new leads and network marketing business partners.
The Internet continues to move at almost lightning speed. Tomorrow there will be new innovations that will even help take your MLM business to heights you never imagined possible.
However, today the one thing that is certain is that socializing is a perfect complement to a network marketing business. Some of the top network and internet marketers are learning how to utilize this to their full advantage.

The explosion of online social networks like Facebook, MySpace and LinkedIn has opened up a whole new world of marketing. These social networks create new realms of possibility in the realm of online marketing, as it enables (at a minimal cost) a massive word-of-mouth campaign. As word-of-mouth is the most effective form of advertising, it’s no wonder that so many companies of all sizes are interested in social network marketing.The earliest and still most common form of marketing on social networks is to simply create a presence on the social network. Many corporations, charities, bands and other organizations have an account on the social network, and one or more employees is tasked with maintaining this social presence. Through the social network, the organization can announce to it’s many friends and customers what new products and services they are offering, in addition to enabling customers to have a more personal relationship with them. This is free and productive, however it does not have much of an effect and many corporations are seeking other options.The best way to market via social networks is to encourage participation. Many companies have found that by taking suggestions, running contests and otherwise bringing the members of the social network in, they can greatly increase customer loyalty. It also permits companies to quickly “crowd source” projects such as logos or new food flavors.One last way many organizations use social networks is for “Astroturfing,” which is when an organization works to make the appearance of a grassroots organization when actually they are using a network of company agents to advertise a product or service. This is often against the terms of service of the social network, and it also often leads to severe backlash. Many modern consumers will see astroturfing as lying to them, and so it is a tactic best avoided.

Baby Boomer Social Network Catches Fire—2900% Growth

Lifesmine.com, considered by many to be the fastest growing social network of its kind, has recently been experiencing explosive growth as more and more people over 40 years of age are catching onto the hottest trend on the internet–social networking. In just the past few weeks, Lifesmine’s internet reach, as tracked by Alexa a subsidiary of Amazon.com, has grown by 2900%. While growth is slowing at most top Internet sites, it is skyrocketing at sites focused on social networking, blogging and local information.

The dramatic success of those Internet categories is apparent from a recent online-traffic analysis provided by market research firm ComScore Media Metrix, which examined visitor growth rates among the 50 top Web sites over the past year. As of December 2006, it was a busy month for social networks across the board. In September, one in 20 U.S. Internet visits included a stop at a leading social network, almost twice the rate of a year before.

Lifesmine’s (www.lifesmine.com) phenomenal growth is even more impressive when compared with many of the social network industry leaders. The five fastest growing social networks, other than Lifesmine, identified during a recent tracking period include Bolt (271%), Bebo (95%), Orkut (63%), MySpace (51%), and Gaia Online (41%). In an industry where high growth is the rule, Lifesmine.com’s expansion dwarfs all the others.

The recent success of Lifesmine is also important considering what a recent national analyst said about the social network business model in general. “In order for a social networking site to be successful, it must attain a critical mass, and competition is fierce to attract new member,.” said Jill Meyers, an Analyst with In-Stat. “So far, sites have focused their attention on a younger demographic, which is finite, fickle and limited in expendable income,” she added. Recent In-Stat research finds that the biggest American generation, the baby boomers, is frequently overlooked.

Baby Boomers are one of the two age groups that Lifesmine CEO Larry Lutvak has focused on in terms of his efforts to build a strong company. “We know that adults from 40-60 years old are in the midst of an entertainment transition,” stated Lutvak from his Tampa Bay area offices. “High speed bandwidth and cheaper computer costs are driving internet usage and more and more people are choosing social networking as a way to meet new people and spend their time,” he added.

Lutvak also cited the recent strategic adjustments by Facebook as regards their renewed focus on the 35 and up marketplace. “We could see that advertisers wanted to see an evolution in social networking towards more mature age groups”, said Lutvak.

Observers have lauded Facebook for attracting an increasing number of business and professional users and more consumers in the 35-plus age categories than is usual for networking sites, which often skew younger. All this should mean growing advertising revenue for the site.

Industry experts have also said a broader base of investors seems ready to embrace social networks, citing as evidence the networks’ rapid growth and funding rounds by venture firms and rich individuals. A recent case in point: the $40 million raised by Ning, an online service that allows consumers to create their own social network “for free in seconds,” according to its Web site. Netscape pioneer Marc Andreessen is one of its co-founders.

All of this bodes well for Lifesmine.com provided they continue to grow rapidly. The company is using a combination of Google pay par click advertising and consumer generated online publicity to add new subscribers. With general internet user trends pointing to continued growth of internet penetration by Baby Boomer, Lifesmine.com is poised to enjoy even more growth.

Nowadays, many of us receive e-mail invitations to join social networking websites such as Facebook, LinkedIn, or MySpace. These services make it easy for members to send out invitation emails complete with response links, and it is in their best interests to do so – as more friends sign up, these sites register higher visits and page views, potentially leading to increased advertising income.

While only a few well-known social networking sites used to exist, this number has skyrocketed, resulting in many more invitations in your e-mail Inbox. Even if you know the sender and name of a social network to which you’ve been invited, before you click on an invitation response link, take a second and consider that not all invitation e-mails are what they seem. Some fraudulent “friends” and “social networks” could have drastic consequences to your security and privacy:

1) Make sure the invite link actually goes to the social network website and not somewhere else trying to “phish” for your personal information! It’s better to copy and paste URLs into your web browser instead of clicking invite links, as there are many sneaky tricks to hide the true web addresses in e-mail messages.

Even when you copy and paste URLs into a web browser, before actually visiting the websites, look in the browser’s address bar for any text such as “redirect” or “goto”. These may be signs of someone trying to redirect you to a nefarious website.

For example, imagine getting the following link inside an e-mail message for a hypothetical “Google Social Networking Service”:

http://translate.google.com/translate?u=stopbadware.org&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&sl=es&tl=en

Since the e-mail claims to be from “Google”, and the web address contains “google.com”, this will take you to a page on Google’s website, right? If you visit the above link you will go somewhere else…

This misdirection link was just an example and fairly easy to detect. Real spam e-mails use lots of other tricks for obfuscating (hiding) true web addresses. Instead of copying and pasting links, it may prove even safer to just visit website homepages directly, skipping invitation links, and then asking senders to be re-invited as their friend.

2) Do you know the person sending the invite? Do you know the name of the social networking site? If you’ve never heard of neither, there’s a high probability the site or the member is spamming. Sign up to the site and be placed on the user’s “friend” list and your mailbox may be subjected to all sorts of unsolicited e-mail.

Just as responding to junk e-mail alerts spambots that your e-mail address is active, responding to junk social networking requests does the same thing.

If you do know the friend but not the social networking site, what’s wrong with sending a quick e-mail to your friend and asking them if their invite was legitimate? If it was, no big deal, but if it wasn’t, you might have alerted your friend to a problem they need to fix on their end.

3) Nefarious websites may be breeding grounds for spyware distribution. Visit the website with the wrong browser and/or wrong software installed, and your computer may become infected.

Think your computer, even with antivirus and anti-spyware software installed, cannot be infected? These software packages may be installed on your system, and the wrong version combined with a 0-day exploit (a previously-unknown bug that has not been patched) can allow spyware / malware to be installed (this is not an exhaustive list):

Internet Explorer Macromedia Flash Mozilla Firefox Opera QuickTime for Windows RealPlayer Safari Shockwave Windows Media Player … And the list goes on.

4) When you access the social networking website, does it ask questions such as the following during the signup process?

* Social Security Number (a big NO-NO!)

* Name and password to another e-mail account so the site can notify all your contacts to join the social network (or nefarious sites can use your account to send e-mail spam to all your contacts UNDER YOUR NAME!)

* Mother’s Maiden Name (while legitimate networks may ask this for a “Security Question”, I would not provide it. This is one type of information miscreants can use to possibly get more information about yourself or sign up for credit or other offers in your name).

* Credit Card or Bank Account Number (unless it’s a LEGITIMATE SITE, you know it’s not a phishing site, and you’re signing up for subscription/premium services, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER PROVIDE THIS INFORMATION! This can cost you money, time, aggravation, and your credit rating.)

These are just four techniques nefarious social networks and/or members can use to violate your privacy, cost you time and money, and possibly harm your credit rating. While I’m not saying you should never join social networks, just be a little careful when you get invitations. Know who is sending you the invite and the legitimacy of the social network. Confirm the invite and visit the social network’s homepage directly. Plus, never provide too much information when signing up. Follow this advice to help increase your safety on the Internet while having fun joining your friends in social networks.

Make your social network earn money for you. Choose the right social network software to design your website, and provide the right kind of services to retain the users, helping them to invite their friends, in an attempt to build up large communities and groups. Provide them with enough opportunity to spend more and more time on your website, and slowly create that customer loyalty which is so very important in running a social networking website. The longer that the user remains on your website, they get more and more familiar with the name, and also get to know the products and the premium services that you offer. Your website starts to generate business as customer confidence builds up.
You would need to create a brand for big business coming your way. You would just need to see the kind of worldwide traffic visiting MySpace and Facebook, and spending considerable time in there. It is simply because the websites have been successful in creating a brand name for themselves, offering services that retain customers. The longer time that users hang around on your website, the more business opportunities are created for you. Your social networking software must be able to provide such facilities to the users, where the tools that you provide, help them to build their own identity amongst the groups and community that they join. Your website must be able to generate that interest in the users, making them spend more and more time in networking.
When you look at creating big business, your social network software must be able to generate interest in attracting advertisements from other well known websites. Last year, Google has paid nearly a billion US dollars to MySpace to put its advertisement on their site. Myspace also shared the revenue that was generated from the Google advertisements. That is big business. Your social networking website can earn money for you, when other business advertises on your site. But why should a running web business advertise on your website? Simple, since you have been able to create a huge database of the users. Obviously, advertising on your social networking website would prove to be advantageous.
Social networking helps to build up personal or professional set of relationships between individuals. It represents both, a collection of ties between people, and the strengthening of those ties as well. A website, which utilizes the right social network software, can provide a tool to measure of the loyalty that builds up by the continued presence of the users, and, at the same time, assists in determining how the information flows within the groups, building up and fostering the growing trust within.
There is good number of advantages in having your own social networking website. It has a great amount of value in internet marketing. It is also true that internet marketing could also be established without such a network, by getting involved in MLM with friends and relatives, purchasing email addresses and sending off flyer advertisements regarding your products, and many more. The marketing options become restricted than what it would be without a social networking website. For one, it is much easier to put together a large email address list by owning a social networking website. For such a website, you need to plan and have a marketing strategy, and with the deployment of the right social network software, much could be achieved.
In purchasing email lists, you need to remember, that the vast majority of the people in that email list is not interested in what business you have, no matter what it is. Most of your marketing email to the list would be considered as spamming, since there is no interest what-so-ever in what you have to offer. Even if you had tangible goods to offer for people to buy, there would not be any significant success in marketing your products, if you are restricted to email marketing using purchased email address listings.
So how would you benefit from having your own Private Social Network?
Here’s how:
-Build up your brand.
-Increase customer loyalty.
-Expand your customer base virally.
-Increase Traffic to your online content.
-Improve Communities.
-Up-sell Products & Services.
-Increase Market Differentiation.
-Boost Revenue.
-Reduce customer service costs.
-Retain customers.
If you are in a competitive business, where you need the attention of people, having your own social networking website is the only solution for you to build up customer loyalty and stand out more prominently in the marketplace. For such a website, you would need the right social networking software to provide you with the tools. As long as you can draw users on your website, more and more communities would develop, bringing in the customer loyalty that is so very much important for any business.

The emerging IEEE 802.16 standard, commonly known as WiMAX, promises to deliver last mile wireless broadband internet access capable of carrying data intensive applications, such as VoIP and streaming video, to Metropolitan Area Networks, as well as sub-urban and rural communities. WiMAX is considered a disruptive technology, designed as an alternative to fixed line DSL and coaxial technologies, and with its 802.16e revision, the cell phone networks as well.
Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave AXcess will operate over licensed and non licensed frequencies using non line of sight (NLOS) and line of sight technologies, extending broadband coverage to cities and towns wirelessly via a metro area network. Additionaly, because of its far reaching capabilities and ease of implementation, wimax is the one technology likey to bridge the Digital Divide, connecting underdeveloped regions and sparsely populated rural areas much more cost effectively than deploying a wireline infrastructure.
WiMAX and WiFi Compared
The widespread adoption of the wireless LAN in the business community, as well as the emergence of WiFi hotspots in public areas, airports, hotels and cafes, has been of tremendous significance in providing mobility to business people and consumers alike. Thanks to the open standards guided by the 802.11 committee and the WiFi Alliance, WiFi technology is becoming ingrained in our society. WiMAX plans to take WiFi a step further.
While the two technologies may sound the same, they are from their conception designed for totally different applications. WiFi is a short range standard that was designed primarily as an extension of the local area network (LAN) to provide mobility for the end user. It operates over unlicensed frequencies and has a range of about 100 meters, depending on obstructions. Typically one access point will be connected to a fixed line network, either a wired LAN or a DSL/cable broadband connection, and the range can be extended by adding more access points at appropriate distances.
WiMAX, on the other hand, is designed to function as a carrier network, or a wireless Internet service provider (WISP), blanketing whole cities and regions with broadband Internet access comparable to DSL. Coverage in optimal conditions could reach 50 kilometers, but in reality are more like 5 km for users with NLOS customer premise equipment (CPE), or up to 15 km with a CPE connected to an external line of sight antenna.
As the older more established technology, the 802.11 WiFi has been used in a mesh topology to cover larger areas such as college campuses and municipalities, for example to connect the terminals in police vehicles to their database. The emerging 802.16 WiMAX will be better suited for larger deployments, and will in fact compliment the private WiFi networks by offering a cheaper and more secure Internet access for data and voice applications.
The WiMAX Standards: Fixed, Nomadic, and Mobile
The 802.16 standard developed by the IEEE envisions a fixed wireless broadband network operating in the spectrum range of 10 GHz to 66 GHz. Originally, only the licensed spectrum was addressed in this range, and line-of-sight multipath technology was dealt with by adopting OFDM as the standard. Subsequent revisions added the 2 GHz to 11 GHz band to the spectrum, and incorporated support for non-line-of-sight technologies and Quality of Service (QoS) techniques, a prerequisite for such time sensitive applications as voice and video.
The revision known as 802.16-2004(d) rolled up all the previous revisions and then added some. Most of these original issues dealt with the Physical and Media Access Control layers, and resulted in a standards list of optional and mandatory elements by which vendors could design their products.
The resulting fixed WiMAX standard has a data rate of up to 40 Mbps, support for half and full duplex transmission, improved QoS, and the incorporation of multiple polling techniques, ultimately reducing packet collisions and overhead.
Base stations are to support several different topologies, such as wireline backhauling, microwave point to point connections, and the ability for the WiMAX base station to backhaul itself by reserving a part of the bandwidth for that purpose.
By design, 802.16d would cater to the residential and small business markets offering wireless broadband access with speeds comparable to DSL. Enterprise markets could be served at T1/E1 data rates.
While this version of WiMax is called fixed, it is in all actuality nomadic. Users on a private WiFi network indoors could be passed off seamlessly to the publicWiMAX network when moving outdoors, their hardware determining the best network available. Devices on the WiMAX data network would include laptops, PDAs, and smart phones equipped with an on board WiMAX capable chip or PC card, utilizing the spectrum for voice, data, video, and music transfers.
Nomadic WiMAX provides for limited mobility in that the range of coverage is handled by the same base station.
WiMAX Goes Mobile
With the adoption of the 802.16e revision in late 2005, all the hype has been on Mobile WiMAX, a technology designed to compete with the cellular networks.
With major support from manufacturers like Intel, Motorola, Siemens, and Nokia among others, mobile WiMAX is built on open standards and is purported to be 4 times faster than the cellular 3G technologies (EVDO, HSDPA). Significant cost savings can be achieved for voice applications by placing calls over the Internet through VoIP.
802.16e provides for fast and seamless handoffs between base stations, with a cell radius of about 3 miles, similar to cellular networks. The standard was ratified in late 2005, and real world applications are beginning to show up in 2007, with more robust development expected throughout 2008.
Because this technology is such a threat to the legacy telecommunications industry, it is no surprise that Sprint Nextel will be deploying WiMAX as opposed to EVDO in its 4G network. Sprint has been buying up much of the WiMAX spectrum, and has recently announced a partnership with Nokia to deploy WiMAX to four Texas cities by mid 2008. This is not their first WiMAX network, and telcos around the globe have been doing the same.
The 802.16 standards are a work in progress, and as such, are subject to changes and revisions. As the standards committee works on the technology, the WiMAX Forum hopes to do what the WiFi Alliance did for the 802.11 standards, by promoting interoperability between components through testing, and offering WiMAX certification to vendors that conform to the 802.16 standards.
It should be noted that many of the WiMAX implementations at the time of this writing are proprietary, and thus do not necessarily follow the recommendations of the IEEE or the WiMAX Forum. The broadband wireless ISP Clearwire Communications has over 200,000 subscribers in 375 cites, and calls its service a WiMAX-class solution, utilizing next-generation, non-line-of-sight wireless technology. Other early adopters of pre-WiMAX technology are forging ahead, providing wireless broadband access to residential consumers and the small business market, with many companies climbing aboard the evolving standards bandwagon to assure interoperability and backwards compatibility of devices and applications.

Wireless networks and routers are becoming more ubiquitious by the day. Many people are exchanging their traditional cabled networks with wireless as it provides many benefits. For example, users aren’t physically limited to one area as the radio waves of wireless networks can be broadcasted around the whole premises. However, there will always be problems which comes with benefits. One major problem is that many people don’t secure their wireless (wi-fi) networks. This allows people who are within the distances of the router broadcast limit to easily piggybank your connections. Why is this a problem? They’ll be stealing your internet bandwidth, making your internet connection slower. They may also take part in illegal activities such as downloading movies and musics from P2P networks and who gets  the blame if the cops find out? You. Because its your network. So how do you secure your wireless (wi-fi) networks and routers? Here are some tips.1. Secure your wireless administration interfaceAll wireless routers should come with a  wireless administration interface. It allows you to many important jobs such as changing your wireless security router and modifying ports. How do you access the wireless administration interface? You have to first find out your Network Gateway number. Start run, and type in ‘cmd’. This should open the command inteface. Now, type in ‘ipconfig/all’ and a list of numbers should appear. Look for your default gateway number and note it down. Now open up an internet browser and type in http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. The xs are your default gateway number. Enter your password and username, should be in your router manuals, and change your password to something secure.2. Don’t broadcast your SSIDThe SSID (Service Set Identifier) is a name used to specifically identy a wireless router. For example, your SSID Router would be ‘John’s router’ if you set it that way. If you want your wireless network to be private then don’t broadcast your SSID. Most wireless administration interface should give you the option to disable SSID broadcast.3. Enable WEP encyrption protectionInclude a WEP security protocol. This is basically a passwrod to unlock your network. Make it difficult to guess. Include upper case, lower case letters, numbers and symbols. Your WEP encryption password should be 13 letters long. Again, check the wireless router inteface to change your password (do you get how important it is now?).4. Reduce your wireless transmiting powerNowadays, you can get wireless standards 802.11g and 802.11n. These networks can brodcast radio waves as far as 25 metres or more. If all your computers are in one room then reduce yoru wireless transmitting power so that only computers in that specific room has access to the wirelesss network. Unfortunately, this feature isn’t available for all routing software programs. Search up your router model and see if it has it.5. Use MAC filteringYoru MAC address (Media Access Control) address is a number which uniquely identifies a device in a network. So your laptop/computer will have a unique MAC address in a network. Turning on MAC filtering allows you to only enable certain devices to connect to your network. How do you filter? You’ll first need to identify the MAC addresses of all the devices which you want connected to the network then use the wireless router administration panel to exclude them from the filter.

Lamit Company, an important satellite internet provider, launches a new solution for improving the satellite internet connections (terrestrial, wireless or bidirectional via satellite), the 2.5 STABLE version of Lamit 2Pro Advanced and Lamit 2Pro Mini Power servers.
