21 Accounts an Internet Marketer should sign up for

The seventh part of the Bullet Proof Blogging series takes a look at a range of useful websites that you have to register on in order to maximise your success being an Internet Marketer. The article will go through a range of different websites from social media sites to website statisitic websites and SEO websites.

Google Analytics – If your a statistic addict then this is a must have. If you are a blogger or know that you could grow your success with useful information about your website and visitors then Google analytics is a must have.
Google Webmaster Tools – So let’s get the Google websites out of the way. Google webmaster tools is like an angel for us Internet marketers. This selection of tools can help keep track of your link building campaign, keyword rankings and more in depth analysis such as your crawl rate and geographical location for your website.
Ping.fm – If your interested in boosting traffic to your website through social media websites then by using Ping.fm you can. The initial stage of registering to Ping.fm and the websites surrounding Ping.fm is a little repetitive however after this has been done, the world is your oyster so to speak. You will be registered to 20 upwards social media websites which with one click of a button on Ping.fm will be pinged with an update which I assume you will add your websites URL too.
Niche Junky – A new affiliate marketing website built by my good friend at Niche Choppers Forum. Niche Junky is a Clickbank statistics tool which tracks day to day recordings of products from Clickbank (an Affiliate marketing website). This website is aesthetically pleasing and very useful for anyone in the affiliate marketing realm.
Twitter – Although I don’t use this daily myself, if you have the time and want to grow your social network then Twitter is definitely the way forward or at least the hype at the moment. With Twitter you can network with thousands of people interested in the same things as yourself. If your a blogger or depend on networking for clients (perhaps freelance writer) then using Twitter can boost your success rate.
Register to at least one Internet Marketing Forum – Now I decided not to link to just the one forum because obviously there are a few to pick from however these are some of the top picks. Firstly there is Digital Point, great for beginners of Internet marketing however if your a little more advanced you may get annoyed by the constant nooblet questions which become very repetitive. Secondly Warrior Forums a little more advanced and I think the general member is more experienced than at Digital Point. Both of these forums have the same type of catergories and you can find the same type of information from both of these forums. Thirdly if your more interested in Affiliate marketing then Niche Choppers is definitely the top pick. Niche Choppers has everything that the other two forums incorporate but targets a more affiliate marketer type of audience.
Free Traffic System – If you want to boost your search engine rankings and increase your traffic then building backlinks is one of the best ways to do so. With the free traffic system you can boost the amount of links you have by submitting an article to 30 other blogs and article directories in a matter of minutes.
Ezine Articles – If your interested in free advertising and you can churn out articles in a matter of minutes then Article marketing may be the way forward for you. Sign up to Ezine articles and promote your website through a relevant article.
Sphinn an Internet Marketers dream. If you know your articles are quality and that everyone should read them then maximise your publicity by submitting these articles to Sphinn a social media site for Internet Marketing.
Register to several other Social media websites such as Stumbleupon, Digg, Delicious and Reddit. Target your readers through other social media networks and lure them in to your website by advertising the latest articles or use incentives.
Google Adsense – A great way of making money blogging when you first start however after you reach a certain level you may opt for a more professional looking pay per click program or even opt to start using different tactics such as affiliate marketing.
Clickbank – Once your blog has become established you may find it more effective to use Clickbank and other relevant affiliate marketing websites such as Commission junction to monetize your blog.
Aweber – An essential part of establishing any blog means that you should start collecting an E-mail list from day one. A great effective E-mail newsletter program is Aweber, the most popular E-mail marketing program on the Internet.
Feedburner – Offering slightly more restricted features if you don’t fancy paying $19.99 a month upwards to collect E-mail subscribers then use Google’s Feedburner. Free and easy to use, if you already have Aweber implement them both in to your Blog.
Sign up for a Keyword Research account, such as Wordze or Wordtracker. Having one of these accounts will make your keyword research much more effective and less time consuming.
TubeMogul – If Video Marketing is your thing then perhaps try out Tube Mogul, this allows you to easily submit your video to several of the top Video broadcasting websites, such as Youtube and Metacafe.
Paid Article Marketing – If you have some money to invest in to an Article Submission software then you may want to try UAW, Article Marketer or Article Automation. In the next month or two I will be using each of these services and posting my feedback, I am currently using UAW and recommend this.
SEO Software – If your looking for relevant traffic that will convert then search engine optimisation maybe your best option. You have several options when it comes to SEO software and they all offer good features, you can take a look at this post for more detail on SEO software.
Yahoo Answers – If you want to promote your website then Yahoo answers is a pretty good place to do so. Obviously it depends on what your website is relevant to but if your trying to sell a health product or you help people out on your website then this maybe the perfect place for you.
Onlywire – Bookmarking submission tool. If you want to index your pages quickly, build links quickly then this maybe a good option for you. Onlywire allows you to social bookmark a website from the click of a button or five, still its worth taking a look at.
Reel SEO – If your looking for SEO information but you don’t want to read it, perhaps you want to chill out in bed instead then check out Reel SEO a great resource for Internet marketing videos.

Thats all folks, I hope you enjoyed this chapter of Bullet Proof Blogging it was quite a hard list to make because I wanted to make it general for all Internet marketers and not to fixed on SEO or another topic of Internet marketing, either way I hope you find these resources useful.
